Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 86

Should I like this or not?

It’s good that I was saved from Ahar, but I couldn’t like it as much as I tried to run away from the hatchling.

Dragons are like disaster.

I don’t want to be picked on by such disaster-like people.

“ah…!”

As I stared blankly at the hatchling, my companions suddenly came to mind.

A huge mana storm that sent Ahar flying away.

And as if it wasn’t enough, a dragon hatchling was acting cute towards me.

When I saw this, I was worried about how the group would react and how Beatrice would react.

“Hey, this is…”

He quickly turned around and made an excuse for the hatchling.

I was most worried about the reaction of Beatrice, who is sensitive to mana.

She would know very well what a hatchling means to a dragon.

And looking at the hatchlings that follow me, they may see me as a crazy person who steals dragon eggs and breeds them.

“….”

My worries were unfounded.

The entire group was in a state of fainting.

Beatrice was lying down awkwardly, leaning on her cane, and Mahol was unconscious with his eyes wide open.

Ellis and Reina were lying down as if they were sleeping, leaning against each other.

I couldn’t tell if I fainted after seeing the hatchling or before seeing the hatchling.

Personally, I really hoped it would be the latter.

There are many excuses for dragons and it is difficult to make them understand.

Because it was impossible for a dragon to be with a human.

‘Well then, what should I do now?’

You never know when Ahar, who has flown to an unseen place, will come back.

He may have been caught up in a mana storm and lost his mind.

For just a moment, I had to think about what to do with the dragon instead of thinking about him.

“I hope you understand what I’m saying.”

I sighed.

He was born less than a day ago.

Even if it were a dragon, it would already be difficult to understand human speech.

Although he seemed to understand what was being said in front of Reid, I thought he probably understood it through the atmosphere.

Reading the atmosphere and understanding words are two different things.

Upright.

The dragon’s small, pointed ears move.

Bright eyes stared at me.

My face was reflected in eyes that resembled those of a white reptile.

The hatchling came up to me and licked my cheek.

Then his eyes twinkled as if telling him everything.

Very cute.

No, that wasn’t important.

“Are you reacting to what I said just now?”

Nod.

The hatchling nodded.

haha.

I laughed without realizing it.

It was hard to believe that the hatchling, who was only one day old, understood what I was saying and responded.

“Are you sure you understand me?”

Wow!

The hatchling nodded wildly and circled around me.

The hatchling understands me.

“I’m dizzy, so stay still.”

Panting.

The hatchling clung to my shoulder and gasped.

And he looked at me as if telling me to say something.

I scratched my cheek at the overly burdensome look in my eyes and opened my mouth.

“You understand what I’m saying, right?”

Wow!

I wondered what to say to the hatchling, who nodded.

Currently, there is only one thing I want from the hatchling.

If you’re not going to leave me, if you’re going to follow me until the end.

“Can you hide yourself?”

I want to hide the fact that the hatchling is following me around.

It was also because of other people’s gaze.

The dragon’s revenge is a problem, but the bigger problem is human greed.

Dragons are synonymous with fear, but they are also the most valuable beings.

Enough to buy a small city with just one scale.

The by-products of dragons were extremely valuable.

It was clear that there would be people coming to get the hatchlings, even if it meant risking the dragon’s retaliation.

‘If you do something wrong, you could leave the empire.’

It is an empire with many sword masters and archmages.

An adult dragon has enough power to eat, so it can struggle to get a hatchling.

If done incorrectly, diplomatic problems could arise, and furthermore, the Millennium Count family could be in danger.

The count’s power is still needed.

So I have to hide the fact that there is a dragon next to me.

[The ‘Unknown God’ smiles, saying there is no need to worry.]

Wow!

My worries quickly disappeared.

With a small cry, the hatchling disappeared without a trace.

I couldn’t even feel the dragon’s unique mana.

Nothing felt like it had never existed in the first place.

All I could feel was a heavy feeling in my shoulder, indicating that the hatchling was hanging.

[It is said that there is no need to worry that the ‘unknown god’ is a dragon, even if it is a hatchling.]

God guaranteed it.

There is no need to worry that the hatchling’s hiding will be discovered by others.

My first thought was that I was fortunate.

“Uhm…”

“Ugh!”

At that time, one by one, the group began to come to their senses.

“Ah, Raymond!”

“Are you okay?”

Mahol and Ellis jumped up and clung to me.

I burst into laughter as I saw them looking all over my body to see if there were any injuries.

Looking at their reactions, I was convinced.

As the gods say, the hatchling’s hiding is perfect.

Even Beatrice was unable to understand the existence of the hatchling.

He just had a shocked look on his face after finding out who I was.

“are you okay?”

“….”

Beatrice didn’t say anything despite my words.

I was wondering how to accept this with confused eyes.

For a moment, Beatrice glared at me with eyes filled with anger and opened her mouth.

“Why did you come to me while hiding your identity?”

***

Beatrice found it difficult to accept the current situation.

I thought he was a trustworthy person.

I thought he was a very pitiful person.

I thought that if it were this person, it would be okay to reveal his identity.

‘Raymond!’

Wow. My teeth were ground.

After learning that his identity was Raymond, I felt betrayed.

I thought he was a really bad person because he knew everything about me and approached me.

I felt that people do not change easily.

He even became angry, wondering if there was something he wanted to gain from him by hiding his identity.

And it didn’t take long for me to realize that it was all an illusion.

“What do you mean, hiding your identity?”

At first, I felt his question-filled answer was shameless.

Even though you clearly know who you are.

I got angry and tried to yell at him.

“I know who I am…!”

Then, one thing suddenly occurred to me.

‘I’m in disguise.’

It was disguised using magic.

It occurred to me that he was wearing such perfect make-up that he was unrecognizable unless he was a wizard or a sword master.

Raymond doesn’t know that she is Beatrice.

“What on earth are you talking about?”

“….”

When I even thought about that, I realized that I was overly delusional.

I don’t know that the asset is Beatrice, so what does Raymond know about approaching me?

Her face turned red.

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

Beatrice couldn’t bear to meet Raymond’s eyes.

I was embarrassed.

I wasn’t sure, but I resented myself for getting angry.

“It’s bland.”

Fortunately, Raymond didn’t seem to take his rude attitude too seriously.

“Whoa…”

Taking a deep breath, Beatrice looked at Raymond.

He wasn’t paying any attention to her as he inspected Reid’s by-products.

‘I am Beth. ‘You can’t forget that.’

Rather, it went well.

It was an opportunity to learn more about him.

Beatrice calmed down and tried to observe Raymond’s actions.

“Beth.”

“yes yes!”

“Keep this. Let’s do the distribution by going out to the north.”

“All right.”

As usual.

Just do it as usual.

I move with that in mind, but my body creaks and my face becomes stiff.

Although she didn’t know it, her behavior was so unnatural that it was immediately noticeable when seen from the side.

“What are you doing?”

If it was so bad, Raina would have come up to me and asked with concern.

“Oh, it’s nothing!”

Anyone can see that it’s nothing.

She was not very good at acting.

While Beatrice was cutting Reid’s limbs into pieces and pushing them into subspace, I was checking the condition of the group.

Fortunately, everyone was fine except Mahol.

“And where is he?”

“That guy? Ah… ahar?”

“yes. We didn’t know they would attack us. “I will pay back everything I received.”

The sight of Mahol talking while gritting his teeth was terrifying.

It seemed like he would kill Ahar horribly at any moment if he were in front of him.

“I ran away.”

“…You mean running away?”

Mahol looks at me as if he is having trouble understanding.

To be honest, even though I said it, it was a bit absurd.

“uh. “He ran away.”

“okay.”

Mahol nodded with a puzzled face.

He said I was like that, but since he couldn’t see it in person, he had no choice but to believe it.

“Then I can’t help it. “The next time we meet, I have no choice but to kill you for sure.”

“okay.”

That was what I wanted.

If Mahol kills Ahar, I have one less thing to worry about.

I know very well that I can’t do that.

If he could kill Ahar, he would have killed him a hundred times in the novel.

That’s how many opportunities Mahol had to kill Ahar.

Still, the reason they couldn’t kill him was because he was the main character.

Main character buff.

That should never be taken lightly.

[The ‘Unknown God’ looks at you and smiles bitterly.]

I had no intention of changing my mind just because I saw it that way.

Because it was true.

Ahar miraculously survives and becomes stronger even in situations he thought he could never escape.

If that’s not a main character buff, then what is?

“Let’s move slowly.”

I gathered up all the by-products of the raid and moved quickly.

I have no desire to stay in the place where the fierce battle with Ahar took place for a long time.

I didn’t know when Ahar would come, but I had no intention of staying carefree.

“Let’s go down the mountain range as quickly as possible.”

The group showed no objection to what I said.

From the moment I caught the raid, there was no reason to stay in the mountains.

With just one raid, a commoner can earn enough money to live on for the rest of his life.

Other than that, the focus was on the fact that Ahar was still alive.

I don’t know when it will come. The group was especially anxious after feeling how strong he was.

It was the same for Mahol.

Even if you say that, you will know that you can’t win when you actually meet.

That’s why not everyone opposed what I said.

It was time to leave the center of the mountain range.

[‘The nameless god’ looks urgently at you and behind you.]

An ominous message from God.

Wow!

With a roar that echoed throughout the mountain range, something approached at incredible speed.

I will kill you!

I looked back and cursed my useless curiosity.

Stay there!

Ahar, whose entire body was covered in blood, was chasing after him.
