Chapter 27-1


    This was an unexpected result and also an unexpected stroke of luck.


    If they had known how to ambush him and Hte, they would have found a way to prevent them from going on the journey.


    But the information he knew hadnt yet started, and he had not even expected Robbins to encourage the trip.


    <em>I cant move in the capital.</em>


    They were expanding their influence throughout the in Kingdom while waiting for the right time.


    Of course, depending on the situation, they might reveal themselves, but they acted as discreetly as possible in the capital.


    Security in the capital was superior to any other region, and the pce and many noble families were present.


    If they were caught up in a frenzy and made a mistake, they could lose all the power they had built up in an instant.


    <em>Still, it seems too fast. Is it really right to ambush us just because we left the capital?</em>


    Kelidos was a city that belonged to a region quite close to the capital.


    It could take at least a day, and as little as half a day to travel between them.


    Above all, since the capital was nearby, they would have to take many risks if they wanted to act directly


    <em>Maybe if it was Htes brother, but targeting Hte doesnt make sense.</em>


    They had designated the current king, the direct royal family, Duke Adira, and Duke Tyrone as assassination targets.


    However, they were currently focusing on increasing their forces, and they wouldnt engage inrge-scale activities untilter in the middle of the operation.


    Therefore, there was no reason to kill Hte if they considered timing and conditions.


    As the so-called Crazy Young Lady Hte was the least valuable noble in Duke Adira family.


    It was a bit dangerous.


    Although I gained something from this incident, I didnt feel particrly good about it.


    Not only Hte, but also their hired help and even their escort knights were nearly killed.


    If it werent for Exceed Rain, they wouldnt have been able to get through that situation easily.


    <em>Hte could have been hurt.</em>


    Hte had learned magic, so she could have been helpful in battles.


    Her talent in magic was excellent, so she could produce appropriate power and speed in realbat.


    However, because of that, Hte would reveal that she had learned magic, and due to herck ofbat experience, she could have been injured by a momentary mistake.


    <em>Should I keep an eye on her a little longer?</em>


    There was still time before the protagonist arrived.


    In the meantime, there has never been a description of direct royal or aristocratic children getting hurt or killed so far.


    Of course, it might not have been intentionally described, so caution was needed.


    <em>Its not good to only focus on the protagonist</em>.


    Other novels are simr, but they usually revolve around the protagonist.


    The protagonist is swept away by various idents, meeting various characters, which speeds up their growth rate and information acquisition.


    However, this resulted in the exclusion of unnoticed characters and information, and as a result, unintentional constraints arose when trying to grasp the overall situation.


    <em>This is the limit of being an extra.</em>


    Because he was an extra, he couldnt stand out and could never get close to the protagonist.


    Furthermore, in some ways, it was miserable to see the fiance going over to the protagonist.


    what am I going to do now?


    Sion got up from bed.


    Although there was ack of information, he could easily deal with it now.


    Because he had Exceed Rain in his hands.


    <em>I need to engrave the magic.</em>


    He couldnt always stick to Hte.


    There would be times when Hte wanted to be alone, and she had things to do by herself.


    Again, they coulde by surprise, so it was necessary to be prepared.


    <em>They wont try to fight me.</em>


    Just the fact that he used swordsmanship was enough to make him intimidating.


    Furthermore, since he could neutralize magic, he gave off the impression of using special sword techniques.


    In other words, he had left the impression of being a strong person, so he couldnt be provoked easily.


    <em>However, I may end up fighting them, so I need to be stronger.</em>


    Sion had already roughly nned out how to handle Exceed Rain.


    He would increase his mana as much as possible and learn sword techniques to improve his understanding of closebat and swordy.


    Although it would cost a lot of money to speed up the process, most of the expenses would be covered by the Robbins.


    <em>I can learn swordsmanship from Barchen.</em>


    Barchen Laird was a young knight and promising swordsman from a Marquis family.


    Since he was the legitimate son of the Marquis Laird, there was no problem in terms of bloodlines.


    In addition, rumors were circting that he was going to join the Royal Knights, so many nobles showed interest and tried to arrange strategic marriages.


    Although Barchen Laird was busy, he would never turn away his younger brother if he asked for instruction.


    <em>Spending all the money on magic instead of swordsmanship would be more effective</em>.


    In fact, it was more of an issue of efficiency than cost.


    To maximize the unique abilities of Exceed Rain, it was necessary to make proper use of magic.


    Learning swordsmanship was necessary, especially since he used a magic sword, but without the prerequisite of magic, even that would be meaningless.


    I should have some talent too
