I Became the Genius Bastard of a Noble Dark Clan – 172

Chapter 172

Episode 172

Surprisingly, even the Four Kings sent an envoy.

However, the Four Kings did not ignore Christian like other families.

Because I experienced Christian’s abilities firsthand.

Surprisingly, the place that most objectively and accurately understood how great Christian was was the Four Kings.

[I will take charge of the envoy.]

It was the puppeteer Merhen, an elder of the Four Kings Castle and the highest ranking mine of the Seven Stars.

She was also a senior in the direct lineage of the cursed Maga, so she was more than qualified.

[I have previously owed a debt to Prince Christian.]

A captivating smile appeared on Merhen’s lips.

[First of all, I plan to make Prince Christian into a doll later, so I want to see his beautiful form with my own eyes. Ah, just imagining how wonderful a piece of work Prince Christian will be is thrilling.]

Another faction of the Four Kings, the Blood Sword Maga, also decided to send an envoy to the investiture ceremony.

However, there was a problem.

“You want to go yourself, Miss? It’s dangerous!”

“Don’t worry about it. The Dark Maga are a family that knows honor, so they won’t try to harm the envoys who came to the investiture ceremony.”

Archduchess Idrine has decided to attend in person!

“But isn’t it really unnecessary for you to go yourself? It would rather be a courtesy.”

Darkness and Blood Sword are clearly enemies, so it was strange for the Archduke to go.

But Idrine said calmly.

“That’s fine too. I’ll hide my identity.”

“What did you say?”

Idrine decided to attend under the name ‘Leah’, the identity she had previously told Christian.

There was no need to worry about anyone finding out, since the devil had decided to help with the disguise with his power.

“More than anything, I want to become friends with Prince Christian for the sake of the friendship between our two families. So I can’t miss this opportunity, can I?”

In fact, it wasn’t just about promoting family relations.

– Be careful, Idrine is a terrible demon.

Idrine’s eyes narrowed sharply as she recalled what Christian had said.

‘I will definitely become a friend of Prince Christian and make him apologize for what he said.’

Idrine clenched her fists.

last.

It was a very poisonous Mark.

But the atmosphere was strange.

Originally, the poisonous Maga had planned to send the Grand Duke and Marisa as envoys.

It was the decision of the Duke of Huam, the head of the family, to do their best as a neighboring family.

Especially Marisa, pretending not to be excited, put a lot of effort into preparing.

Her brother, Archduke Hubert, shook his head at Marissa’s appearance.

“I guess you thought I was going to meet my fiancé whom I have a crush on.”

“Who, who would have a crush on that guy! A guy who doesn’t even reply to letters!”

Marisa shouted in anger.

“He, he’s just going as an envoy, so he’s just trying to be polite!”

“Kuk kuk, I just realized you’re such a polite person.”

“Brother!”

Marisa screamed.

They look like siblings who are on good terms, which is unusual for a family of noble magicians.

In reality, the two were deeply dependent on each other within their desolate family.

however.

Just before the investiture ceremony, something went wrong.

At the Mandokwan (萬毒官) she manages.

“Oh, no, why is this happening?”

Marisa’s complexion turned pale.

“Oh, no. We have to find a way to stop it. Otherwise, we’ll have a huge problem with Dark Maga…!”

like that.

Another spark has sprung up somewhere unknown.

The day of the investiture ceremony has finally arrived.

The mansion of the Dark Maga clan was filled with countless demons who had gathered from all over the Magic Empire.

A specially invited orchestra played splendid music, and a grand open-air banquet was held in the garden.

In the martial arts arena, there are even martial arts competitions for the general public.

It was a grand festival-like scene, but the Norseman, the master of it all, didn’t look too happy.

Christian, who was standing next to me, glanced and asked.

“Why is that, my lord?”

“I don’t like it. How dare you send such worthless people as envoys. You damn bastards who deserve to be chewed to death.”

What made the Norse angry was the faces of the envoys sent by each family.

The only one who sent a grand duke was the neighboring poisonous Maga.

All that came from the other prestigious families were outsiders that we had never heard of.

‘Except for the poisonous Maga, the only one who sent a proper envoy was the Four Kings. I don’t know whether to laugh or not.’

The Norse was busy grinding his teeth.

“How dare you think of our Dark Maga and be so rude.”

“You must be looking down on me.”

Nordian frowned at Christian’s peaceful words.

“Aren’t you angry?”

“Why are you angry? Just press your nose.”

“!!”

“By the way, isn’t this a good spot?”

A story with some meaning.

The Norseman’s expression became strange.

“You, you have something in mind.”

Christian nodded.

“Can I have an accident?”

“…Accident? At the crowning ceremony of the Grand Duke?”

“What is the point of holding an investiture ceremony that is full of such formalities?”

Christian raised the corners of his mouth.

“Shouldn’t any investiture ceremony be an opportunity to inform the guests of the greatness of the Dark Maga?”

“…….”

The Norse was silent for a moment.

I couldn’t guess what Christian was thinking.

Aside from that, he’s going to cause an accident on the day of the investiture ceremony. And he’s the main character at that.

It was absurd, but I couldn’t help but feel hopeful in a corner of my heart.

Because Christian has never broken his word before.

“Okay. If you’re going to do it, make sure you do it.”

“Don’t worry. Instead, don’t scold me later for making such a big mistake.”

I was sincere.

Chris wasn’t planning a simple riot.

Today’s investiture ceremony will cause enormous ripples throughout the entire Magic Empire.

“I’ll be back soon.”

As the future Grand Duke, he had to welcome guests.

As he was about to take a step, the Norse stopped him.

“Christian, do you know why I decided to make you the Archduke?”

“Isn’t that because I’m the best?”

“Click click, that’s right.”

The Norse looked straight at Christian.

“I’m proud of you.”

“!!”

Christian looked slightly surprised.

It was an un-Norwegian story.

Nordian waved his hand, perhaps embarrassed by what he had said.

“Why are you standing there like that? What I’m saying is that if you bring shame on the family’s reputation, I won’t let that happen. Don’t have any unnecessary misunderstandings…!”

“I don’t misunderstand. I understand clearly.”

Chris smiled faintly.

“That means my grandfather is so proud of me. I will never forget your feelings and will engrave them in my heart. That’s all for now.”

Before Norse could say anything, Christian disappeared into thin air.

The Norseman who was left alone clicked his tongue in embarrassment.

“Even if that’s not the case. Hey, that’s bad. I wonder why I said something like that when it’s not like me.”

still.

But it wasn’t like myself.

Hearing Christian say ‘Grandpa’, I thought it wasn’t a bad thing.

* * *

As I walked downstairs, I saw some familiar faces.

His father was Count Khazar and his younger brother was Tern.

“chris.”

Count Kazar called out to Chris with a stern look in his eyes.

“Can you do it?”

A voice mixed with worry.

He is proud of his son who has become the Archduke, but at the same time, he is worried about the storms that Chris will face in the future.

Tern had a somewhat resentful look in his eyes.

“…I see a lot of unlucky kids.”

“Hmm?”

“How dare you… You don’t even know how great my brother is! You’re saying it’s all just rumors, you’re just bluffing!”

It seemed as if the invited guests had heard the story about Christian.

Chris chuckled.

“Tern, who am I?”

“…He will become the Grand Duke of our Dark Magic….”

“Not that. Exactly.”

“…This is King Emperor Majesty.”

“Yes. But what are you worried about? They will soon learn of the greatness of this body.”

“!!”

Chris ruffled Tern’s hair.

“Didn’t you promise me before? I’ll show you something that will make your father, you, and mother’s eyes light up.”

past.

It was a promise made when the Dark Magician first left for his hometown.

“That promise is not over yet, it is still in progress. I will show you a great sight that will make your heart burst with excitement, your father, and your late mother.”

Tern nodded silently, and Count Kazar said that his worries still lingered.

“…Don’t crowd.”

“It’s not too much.”

Chris snickered and walked past them.

Towards the hyena-like guests who were sending searching eyes towards him.

“Those guys. They don’t need to force anything.”

As he headed toward the center of the banquet hall, silence fell for a moment.

The orchestra’s music was playing, but no one could hear it.

Everyone’s attention was focused on Christian, who finally appeared.

‘You’re young. Didn’t you say you’re not an adult yet?’

‘He really is a man of great dignity. The aura he gives off is deep and pure. He’s not someone you can just ignore, is he?’

The eyes of some of the mines deepened.

Among those who came as guests, there were many experienced ones.

They immediately noticed that Christian was no ordinary being.

‘He is a promising talent for the future.’

It was a high rating, but at the same time a low rating.

An entity that is expected to grow greatly over time.

But that means it’s not enough now.

‘It’s too difficult.’

‘It’s too early to call him the Grand Duke.’

Of course, Christian’s achievements are not low at present.

Especially considering his age.

However, the Grand Duke is not in a position to be protected as much as other common princes and princesses.

As a representative of the family, you must be active on the front lines.

Therefore, those who are promoted are those who are not lacking in experience, ability, and strength compared to the executives of the family.

In that respect, Christian could not help but be considered lacking.

Meanwhile, Christian shrugged his shoulders at the gaze of such people.

‘It’s the kind of atmosphere I expected. Well, it doesn’t matter. I actually like it.’

An unexpected thought.

‘I think I can stand out more in this kind of atmosphere.’

He doesn’t want a quiet and docile investiture ceremony.

We plan to make the investiture ceremony as splendid as possible.

‘I need a scapegoat to trample on, especially for my plans.’

Judging by the mood, it didn’t seem like it would be difficult to find a scapegoat.

This is how stories started to be heard.

“Is that boy Christian, the one who will become the Archduke? He is so foolish. He is a complete baby.”

“Why does he look like such a parasite? I don’t like it.”

“Aren’t you guys too sloppy? You’re just my type. You have the perfect face to have as a playmate.”

They were the princes and princesses from the Demon Sword, Demon Beast, and Welcome Maga.

They were looking at Christian with mocking eyes.
