The Rise of the Sword Expert

The Rise of the Sword Expert
It's Verion


In the morning, the newspaper had reported about the death of Count Invit and Alec who died a sinister death.


It says there that all his knights were not hurt in the least. People concluded that Count Invit was targeted because he did have many enemies.


My father closed the paper without caring. He looked at me briefly and then switched to doing something else.


After that he walked to the main hallway. I knew that dad would be looking at that big portrait of mom. Usually he looked with compassion, and great longing. Every now and then she would hold the face of the mother in the portrait as if she were real touching it.


No one will bother you when you are enjoying your time together with your mom. Most of us would turn the direction or try not to make the slightest sound.


"That was you, wasn't it?"


Tanka pointed to the news about Count Invit. His eyes were suspicious.


"Yes, no problem. I don't like it either." She tucked her hair behind her ear.


I'm just smiling.


"Did you do it with Levian?"


"No, with Harzem."


He looked at me in disbelief. Then nod.


"I don't think he's gonna kill anybody else. But looking at yesterday's events, well, maybe Harzem wasn't very friendly." I lowered my voice and whispered slowly.


"Don't judge from the outside."


Seeing her retreat funny, I chuckled.


It would be a lie to say that I myself am not surprised by Harzem's attitude. Look, he seems to like to play and is never serious. But he was pretty cruel.


Yes, Harzem likes to walk anywhere. There was no way he could not protect himself. I don't know what's going on with him.


"Akion can you move Eli?" He's welding. It's been almost two weeks they've been together, but he's still trying to get Eli out of his lab.


"No." I answered indifferently.


"Who are you talking to?"


I immediately saw the source of the sound. Renia holding the ledger in her hand saw me confused.


"Son't just talking to himself."


"Oh yeah, what are you talking about?"


He spoke with a clever innocent expression. He did not let go of his suspicions quickly. It makes me happy, in this world full of stabbing, so he has to stay alert.


"I'm not seeing the news of our Uncle's death."


He approached, tilting his head slightly to think. "Uncle?" He scratched his head with his index finger.


"I mean Big Brother, that fat Uncle whose face is not that friendly? Smelly uncle who likes to get angry?"


He almost described all the ugliness of Count invit.


"And a very insolent man." I added. We both laughed when we faced each other.


"Sit down."


He wasn't sitting next to me, it was a little disappointing. He opened the book quickly.


I thought he was going to read the book, but he asked curiously.


"How did he die, brother?"


I don't know why he was so curious. Even he looked at me enthusiastically, I did not want to tell the cruelty so vividly to my sweet sister.


"He died with his hands severed and his heart pierced. The blood flowing from his hands must be a lot."


I was surprised that Harzem who suddenly appeared explained it without feeling guilty explained it plainly.


I looked at him sharply.


"That's what's in the paper." He smiled stiffly." Read it in the newspaper. You'll find out for yourself."


"No." Renia shook her head while showing the ledger she was holding.


"My sweet little sister, you don't read such a book too often." Harzem hugged Renia's head. Renia just silently accepted it.


"You're the one who doesn't bother her about studying too often."


"We should often enjoy a relaxing time together."


"That's right. I really like time with all of you." Renia smile.


"Servant."


I called them only once, they came to us quickly. I asked them to prepare a drink and snack for us. Oh, and get rid of the newspaper. Just looking at it, I still feel annoyed at them.


Today was the day the three brothers spent time quietly, Tanka even pulled herself up for it. There is no special conversation, filled with light conversation, laughable Harzem guyonan, and spend time just sitting.


Renia closed the ledger. He finished his reading. One red macaroon went into his mouth, I fed it.


She is a girl who has a small body, which scares me maybe she can faint with a body that looks weak. I want him to grow up well. So, I bribed him and often gave him food.


Harzem's eyes have a blue glow.


In short, after Harzem absorbed the mana stone again, he became stronger. His gaze was as sharp as broken glass.


He played his Mana with vigor.


Harzem trained with seven knights who were quite strong. He took his own initiative in this exercise.


It was very difficult to see the next scene, the knight's destination was crouching before Harzem. It's not an aura like mine, Harzem is playing on them. I saw very thin water covering them and forcing them to squat. As hard as they refuse,


Harzem was getting stronger pressing him.


Compared to the match practice, I saw only Harzem playing around.


Meanwhile, according to the letter from Marquis Kingston, and the payment in advance, I have given Verion a stone where the fire for him. Since I didn't see him at the training ground, maybe he was busy to increase his strength.


Levian was looking for his new student, but I had no interest in where Verion was now.


On that very day, an explosion occurred from the west side of my mansion. Right in Verion's room. A huge fire with high smoke made everyone panic.


Harzem quickly flew there and put out the fire.


Me and Levian ran, as I opened the door in a hurry I saw Verion fainting near the bed. Fortunately he was still breathing, and without any severe injuries.


Eli is the first person Verion sees when he wakes up from his stupor.


"Achion, Verion is awake."


He told me who was in the study. I got up from my chair, and immediately saw it. Behind me is Levian.


I'm a little surprised, I'm not the first one there. My father with his very worried face was giving Verion a drink.


"Drink slowly."


Verion complied, he looked like he was going to cough but it got him arrested.


"Thank you, Baron Sanktessy." He Smiles subtly.


He looked around him, the different room designs must have made him realize that he was in another room.


"We were forced to move you in a little small place, because your room was destroyed."


My explanation made his face feel guilty.


"That's the usual thing. I could ask your father for a repair fee anyway." My smile was so that he would not be burdened.


"I'm sorry, Baron Sanktessy. I really have no intention of destroying your mansion."


Her sincere sad expression could not make anyone else angry at her. Besides, maybe he reminds me of my dog boy on earth.


"I'll replace it"


"No problem. You don't have to think about it, Verion. Your family has helped us a lot. So don't do that"


"With my humility, please accept my father's indemnity. I'll write a letter to you."


After hearing that, my father still insisted that it was unnecessary. Verion was silent with a small smile that I was convinced of just to cover up his original intentions.


The next day, Verion's room he had previously occupied was being repaired. Noisy sounds of improvement could be heard from anywhere.


Verion's room exploded, it burned almost everything. In his room, there was only a jet black in sight. Verion said honestly that he lost control while concentrating his fire magic to become strong, so the fire exploded and burned everything. Luckily, there was Harzem who was a water witch.


So, the fire can be extinguished quickly until it does not spread to other parts.
