I Became the Genius Bastard of a Noble Dark Clan – 187

Chapter 187

Episode 187

“You’re saying that!! No, even if you’re a genius, how could you?”

As astonishing as it was, Chris’s performance over the past two days has been incredible.

First, a treatment that deals with fading life.

It was as good as any other name.

No, is it just a name?

‘Even the elders of the poisonous Maga can’t treat something like that. That’s no different from a divine doctor.’

What happened was even more unbelievable.

‘How can there be a cure for the evil blood? Without an antidote?’

Chris shrugged.

“Well, even if there is no antidote, if you understand the cause of the symptoms, you can treat them accordingly, right?”

“…….”

“Your poison is causing water to fill your brain, so I adjusted the pressure accordingly.”

“What, what nonsense.”

Chris said it nonchalantly, but it was nonsense.

First, the drug was developed on the spot.

It was a drug that acted on the kidneys to regulate the concentration of body fluids.

‘According to the knowledge of the Yiseon Myeongga, the water in the brain can be removed by adjusting the concentration of body fluids.’

This was the way that the famous medical doctors treated poison in the first place.

We can’t develop antidotes for all the countless poisons, so instead, we treat the symptoms the poisons cause.

Ruina quickly sent me expensive herbs, so I could mix them and easily make a large quantity of medicine.

There is even detailed sap administration control according to the knowledge of the medical expert.

Thanks to this, the patients’ condition rapidly stabilized.

And finally, the great thing Chris did.

“Okay. I know what this poison is.”

“which?”

“Marisa, that’s the poison you developed.”

“!!”

Marisa’s eyes wavered.

“Wow, that’s ridiculous…!”

“After checking with alchemy, we were able to confirm that the ‘evil blood clot’ you developed was present in the blood of all patients.”

“But only a very small amount was detected. Such symptoms would never occur at that concentration!”

Marisa denied it.

“Yes, if only you had poison.”

“…What is that?”

“It’s a combination poison.”

“…What? No way?”

Marisa’s eyes widened.

It was a term I knew, of course.

It has no effect on its own, but when taken with other poisons, its effects are greatly enhanced.

“Yes, someone released a combination poison into this territory. It combined with your poison to cause this.”

“whoever?”

“Well, you’ll know when you go and check it out.”

Chris spoke in a low, hushed voice.

“I figured out how the poison was distributed.”

Chris wasn’t just treating patients.

We collected and collated information from each patient, and found commonalities among all patients.

“Maho tea.”

“Maho tea?”

It was a tea grown in the territory of Geukdok Maga, and was also commonly consumed by the people of the western territory.

The results showed that symptoms only occurred in those who drank Maho tea distributed from a specific top.

It was tea grown on the territory of the Marquis of Goras and his family.

It went straight to the top.

“What about you? Huh? Archduke Christian?”

“Do you want to die?”

“yes yes?”

“You dare to spray poisoned tea on the people of your hometown?”

“What, what does that mean?”

The upper class was so surprised that they fell flat on their faces.

“The Maho tea you distributed was mixed with poison. Your tea is extremely poisonous tea grown in the Sesia region. Did you receive a request from the lord of Sesia?”

The lords of the Sesia region were representative of the Goras Marquis clan.

“Huh, huh?! I have no idea about this!! This is unfair! Please believe me!!”

The upper class prayed, trembling.

“You don’t know?”

“Yes, really!! I have absolutely no idea about this!!”

“Then let me swear.”

“yes?”

“After you swear to tell the truth, tell him again that you are innocent.”

Did you sense something was wrong?

The owner swallowed his saliva.

“That, that….”

“Why? If you were truly innocent, wouldn’t you have nothing to worry about when it comes to swearing?”

Slurp.

Christian’s sword dug into the upper echelon’s neck.

The upper class screamed in shock.

“I, I swear I’ll tell the truth!! I, I don’t know…!”

That was after I said that.

The upper class was speechless.

“I, I don’t know… I’m not saying I don’t know….”

A trembling voice.

Chris snickered.

Before he knew it, a black magic circle had emerged from his hand.

It was the ‘Seal of Binding’ that I had used many times before. It was a cursed black magic that forced the opponent to take action according to conditions.

“Didn’t you swear to tell the truth? Go ahead and tell me.”

“I, I….”

The tongue of the upper limb began to move involuntarily.

The moment when the truth is revealed as sworn under the seal of bondage.

Something terrible happened.

“Turn it off, turn it off?!”

The complexion of the upper class has become pale.

“Khaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!”

With a piercing scream, the upper body began to melt alive.

It was poison.

“It’s our family’s golden poison. The moment you tell the truth, it takes your life.”

Marisa said in a stiff voice.

“What do we do now?”

Now that he’s dead, there’s no one left to testify whether the lord of the Sesia region actually poisoned the tea.

It’s like the tail has been cut off.

But then Chris said something unexpected.

“It’s okay. It’s actually better.”

“…Are you okay?”

“At this point, it’s clear who the culprit is, right?”

“…That’s true.”

The cause was the Maho tea produced in the territory of the Marquis of Goras and his faction, and the upper class was even poisoned with gold.

Although there was no clear evidence, it was clear that the Marquis of Goras was responsible.

“Now that we know who the culprit is, why waste time trying to get solid evidence?”

A meaningful story.

Chris smiled a villainous smile.

“If we’ve revealed this much, we can just make up the rest of the evidence and attach it.”

okay.

Chris had no intention of obtaining all the evidence from the beginning.

‘You don’t have time, why are you doing something like that?’

It’ll just give your opponent time to prepare.

‘Now it’s time to move on to the next operation.’

His real goal in the first place was not to reveal the truth.

Using this as an excuse to cause a big accident.

“Come in.”

Clap, let’s clap our hands and a person comes in.

A neat and tidy beauty with a chewed-up expression.

It was Ruina.

“Are you ready?”

“…yes.”

Ruina’s face became even more distorted.

It had to be that way.

What Chris ordered was nothing less than ‘evidence tampering’!

Using the power of the upper ranks, they created false evidence that the poison was spread in the territory of the Goras Marquis’ faction.

By the way, the territory where Ruina manipulated the evidence also happened to include the Cecia territory.

‘Eww!! You bad guy!! Am I a criminal?! Sure, I run an illegal business, but I’m an honest merchant!’

“Are you sure this is okay?!”

Ruina asked with a worried face, and Chris shrugged.

“maybe?”

“Profit! What is that uneasy answer?”

“I don’t know how the world will turn out, so how can I give a definite answer? I’m not that kind of untrustworthy person.”

“When you say it like that, I don’t trust you even more!”

“Well, don’t worry too much. If we raid those territories anyway, real evidence will come out. As a result, you won’t be lying either.”

“…Are you going to shave?”

Ruina flinched at the strange word. Marisa flinched as well.

“Ah, haven’t I told you yet what my purpose is?”

Just then, the door creaked open and a figure appeared.

It was Merlin who disappeared after receiving some order from Chris.

“I have returned after carrying out the order.”

“Yeah, what happened?”

“As you commanded, the elite Black Flag Army of the Dark Demon Army has secretly approached the territory of the extremely poisonous Maga and waited.”

Ruina and Marisa’s eyes widened as if they were going to tear apart.

Chris finally figured out what he was after.

“Cesia, Balmont, Roadrock, Kalia.”

The names came out of Chris’ mouth one by one.

The name of the Maga Territory was extremely poisonous.

All lords follow the Marquis of Goras.

“As the Grand Duke of the Dark Magic House and the Deputy Commander of the Dark Magic Army, I hereby declare.”

Cool voice.

“As compensation for their trickery against the Dark Maga, I will subjugate these four territories.”

* * *

Yes, that’s right.

Chris’s real goal was to subdue these territories by force.

‘Nothing will be solved just by revealing the truth.’

Let’s say we prove that this incident was the work of Marquis Goras.

Then will we be able to make him pay properly?

It wasn’t easy.

Of course, even in the Magic Empire, massacring civilians with poison was a grave crime.

So there was no way Marquis Goras would admit his guilt.

Of course, they would try to deny the evidence, and since Marquis Langham and Marquis Goras were in cahoots, there was no way they would be able to punish him.

‘In the end, the only way to exact punishment is through force, but in the case of Marquis Goras, that is not easy either.’

The situation was different from when Duke Huam was identified as the culprit.

Duke Huam is a minority faction within the Maga clan, even though he is the head of the clan.

So, we were able to fight with relatively less burden.

However, striking the Marquis of Goras was essentially the same as going to an all-out war with the poisonous Maga.

So there was only one way.

‘We must launch a surprise attack and achieve an overwhelming victory before it escalates into an all-out war.’

That’s why.

Chris planned this.

‘No one would have expected that the Dark Demon Army, which was guarding the Four Kings Castle, would move.’

There was some additional help there too.

‘The Duke of Huam decided to delay the movements of the Marquis of Goras.’

The other day, when we were talking through the communication device, I asked you a secret favor.

‘If we subjugate these four territories, we will be able to greatly weaken the power of Marquis Goras.’

Chris didn’t randomly point out four territories.

I chose territories that would be a great blow to Marquis Goras if they were cut off.

‘Let’s hurry.’

Christian rode quickly with Merlin to the place where the Black Knights were waiting.

Soon a group of troops came into view.

Mines wearing pitch-black armor.

It was the Dark Knights, the elite cavalry unit of the Dark Lords.

The numbers weren’t large.

About 300 people?

However, there was a light flowing that was incomparable to that of other ordinary Dark Magic Army soldiers.

All of the unit members appeared to have at least 2- to 3-star skills.

‘At this level, they are elites who would not be out of place in any knighthood.’

There are as many as 300 such people.

It was an enormous force.

In particular, since they were not ordinary cavalrymen but rode ‘horses’, their movement speed and stamina were also superior.

The most impressive thing was the two people at the front.

“Ah, it’s nice to see you, Deputy Commander. It’s been a while. It’s the first time since that drinking party. Has your drinking capacity improved a bit?”

A man with a frivolous expression who chuckles.

Among the five generals, Leon was the third.

A powerful player among the 6 stars.

That wasn’t all.

“…I meet your Highness the Grand Duke.”

A somewhat displeased expression and tone.

It was Baron Sanin, the youngest of the five generals who knelt before Chris the other day!

Two of the five generals have arrived.

“I heard the story from Lord Merlin. Ah, as expected of our prince. No, now the grand prince. How thrilling it was to hear the plan.”

Third Captain Leon raised the corners of his mouth.
