The Rise of the Sword Expert
News Has Spreaded

From servants, knights, even the public, the news had been known to them.

The new business of the Sanktessy family.

It was a shocking business for all of them.

They talked skeptically, but marveled from the crevice of their eyes this was their money field.

The family is humble, friendly, straight, and always says yes for the common good.

Isn't that an easy hunt?

This new business also made them fearful and rivaled. Why is my family so lucky on the edge of destruction?

Thank you to my ancestors-Caesar.

Though I only took out a little from the collection of Mana stones that we have, but they have caught fire.

Marquis Kingston had promoted it at the auction venue. I told him to make his debut there, honorable nobles like to gather there, and their nobility will make them compete fiercely.

Booms!

Like fireworks, the talk of high-quality red Mana stones became the talk of noble socialites.

That's how we got such a high profile in just a few days.

The letter came unceasingly. It was about the demand for red Mana stones. Throw in? Refused it.

Even Duke Lexir who has bought seventies Mana stones still wants to buy more I still refuse.

I sent a letter to them, that Marquis Kingstone would be the dealer of red Mana stones, and should use the quota.

Have to have a business conversation, and get in line. Even on the Imperial side, I don't want to lighten my rules.

I am the one who has the goods, they need, so they must obey.

Principle of each transaction.

With all the sounds talking about our red Mana stone, I liked it a lot, sounding like music in my ears.

I hugged the black egg the Marquis Kingston gave me, my chin clinging to the top of the egg. In a relaxed-looking position, I gave her my aura.

"Ah, mystic egg."

The first time Tanka saw this big egg. I didn't hide it, Tanka just became a little rare to get into my room while in the lab.

"What is a mystical egg?"

He looked at me with a look of disbelief. Come on, if I know then I don't ask.

"Just like me who is a mythological creature, it is the egg of a beast-type mythological creature."

"Beast?"

"Phoenix, Unicorn, Basilic, Kaliya, Dragon, that's beast type."

I scrunched my forehead.

"Kaliya? I don't want to get it." I kept my face away from the egg, the color of it became visible at a glance near Kaliya.

It's a big snake but I think it's weak. If you want to choose, maybe I prefer unicorns. It would be a perfect fit for Renia.

"I hope it's not Kaliya either."

"You don't know what this egg is? Take a good look." I brought the egg closer to Tanka.

He tilted his head then knocked on the egg several times.

"Nobody knows what the contents of the mystical egg are. That suits you. You fed him your aura, right?"

I'm nodding.

"He'll be a powerful creature like me."

"Looks. This is also the first time I've seen it in person."

Oh, I understand his gaze that from earlier could not be far from this egg.

"You can't test it."

I seriously said that, with a disappointed look and bulging cheeks, she nodded.

He looks like a mad scientist.

"Let me feed him once."

I looked at him sharply. That's gonna be a problem.

"It won't matter. You remain the master, I only give you the energy of nature. You know, that natural energy is lighter and more easily absorbed than Aura. Just once." He begged me.

"What's the advantage?"

"Your eggs will hatch faster."

A tempting offer he delivered confidently. Tanka who swore to me couldn't possibly lie to you, she wouldn't stop me from having a pet because she was jealous, right?

"alright. Just for today."

I put the egg on the bed, Tanka who beside her has prepared to give natural energy. After I saw that natural energy wrapping the egg comfortably, I left the two of them.

As I walked, I saw two maids giggling over each other's stories.

Noticing my approaching footsteps, they took a serious attitude and greeted me.

"Good day, Mr. Akion."

They bowed, I smiled at them. I knew one of them was trying to peek by leaning his eyes at me. As I passed from them, the peeping minister hit his partner on the shoulder.

"You see, Mr. Akion smiled. That's the best thing here. His face and smile matched it perfectly."

They giggled again.

Then, not long after I met the male waiter, he was busy stuffing things into the kitchen.

From far away he bowed to me. I only replied with a wave of my hand once.

Not long after I walked, I met Bastian. She's a distinctive face, she sees me restless.

Several times he faced forward and to the side as if hesitating.

Someone appeared beside him. He was Willian, in his hands, there were many piles of books.

They seem to have just come out of the family library.

The pile of books in Willian's hands, made his expression doubtful since just now. High pile that covers the face.

"Good day, Mr. Akion. Is there anything you can help?" Bastian went straight to being formal knowing I was watching them silently.

I thought that he actually felt a little tired these few days, because of the large number of letters he had to sort and the documents he had taken care of.

But Willian's look is getting better than the first time I saw him. Her hair is neater with the use of hair oil, after black and white with a tie, the pantofel shoes are entitled to a bit of a fit.

As per my direction, Bastian had arranged it slowly. The poker face remains the same. A professional gambler and secretary seems no different.

Naturally, Willian would get used to it.

"Do you want to stretch yourself, Willian?"

Willian seemed to want to refuse, but it was a bit difficult. Because, his master was taking him.

"Bastian I'm handing you all those books."

In the end, Willian placed the books in Bastian's welcoming hands. Although he refused because he was not happy, but after he put the book down, he was relieved.

"Thank you, chief waitress Bastian."

"No problem."

In particular, it does not matter that he will add work to this new employee later.

Willian followed me.

"Are you wondering where we're going?"

"Sure, Mr. Akion. But I was more curious about that high-quality red Mana stone."

"Do you want me to give you?"

His eyes were round funny, not just anyone could have them, it had a high price. Willian thought he had offended me personally.

"I'm sorry, T-lord Akion. I've been sassy."

I smiled for a moment, he was pounding again.

"Oh, we've arrived."

He looked at me in disbelief. The view ahead is a normal sight for me. It was full of screaming, sweat and wounds.

The Knight training ground.

"Switching muscles is best done with exercise." I chuckled while throwing a wooden sword at him.

Willian caught the wooden sword so hurriedly that it fell down.

"I won't use all my strength." As my smile flickered again, he gulped worriedly. A swordmaster wanted to practice swordplay with a secretary.

"Is this punishment, Mr Akion?"

"Please."

Every now and then I want to say that word, dominating with status intimidation, he backed away from feeling that he had hurt his ruler.

Then, I laughed crisply.

God, why do I like to mess with him so much?

Maybe it was because of that poker face, so I wanted to see his expression even more.

"I'm sorry, I'm kidding."

He scrunched his forehead. He has a lot

hearing rumors that I'm a cruel person, but not with rumors that I'm crazy.

"Well, let's start."

I didn't wait for him to get ready, a swing of a weak sword hit his wood, and it moved backwards quickly, his two holding hands unable to hold back.

I looked at Willian and put on an sorry smile.

If there was a chance with those calm eyes, he would attack me. As if I was loosening my guard, he thrust the sword towards me quickly.

My body shakes off him.

This is a pretty sharp wild attack, but very predictable.

His face was flushed red because the capillaries on his face were enlarged and widened.

When he was breathing heavily, my breathing remained stable. So I decided to finish it now before she completely fainted and couldn't do the job tomorrow.

Plaque!

The wooden sword slipped off.

The solution I've done. His weak body drooped. Their breaths hunt each other. I looked at him from above.

"Hows it? Your muscles are stretching all over, right?"

His breathing was still heavy, making it difficult for him to speak.

"Lord Akion... I-this is not stretching.. t-but .. stiffening..haaa."

I laugh. If I really wanted your body to relax, I would have asked you to sleep more. I know Willian's sleep-deprived because he's too busy.

But isn't a gambler sleep deprived?

"Is your body so weak, Willian?"

"Yes, I've never practiced like your knight, Mr. Akion."

His breathing is slowly stable. He looks cold with flushed cheeks.

"The gambler who often risks his life. How did you survive this long?"

It is not a secret that in the world of gambling is full of deceit. Gambling houses do not want to lose, and players want to make big profits. So they are often in conflict, not to mention the conflicts of fellow players. Often times the lives of gamblers are lost due to their bets.

He survived. It means he's lucky, or he's good at running away.

He scratched his chin which was covered by sand.

"I'm pretty good at reading the situation, Mr. Akion. Like a lizard, if it's dangerous then I'll sever its tail."

Lizards in arid areas are very fast. The parable that is appropriate for him.

"Alright, enough stretching today."

He smiled bitterly. "You mean there'll be another day?" When he was standing up, I answered him. "Smart as expected."

He nodded in despair.

"Good break Willian. May all your muscles not scream."

The wave of my hand made him leave the place

exercises with murmurs are unclear. According to my analyst, he may be cursing to the gods for a half-crazy master.
