Chapter 605 – The Tea Party
Dre is arguably the most famous person in the world right now, but surprisingly his face wasn’t widely known.
There were several reasons why people at Charles’ tea party did not recognize him.
First of all, Elyunar has developed modern civilization to the point of being opportunistic, but of course there is no such thing as the Internet.
At least, the Sumado network, a magic tool for students that has been linked by magic to Prunar Academy, is close to the Internet.
Usually, all you have to do is look at a face stored in a picture or magic tool, and neither of these are familiar to the general public.
Still, those gathered here are nobles. They were familiar with photography and magic tools, so they had seen Dre’s face at least once.
But they also have their own reasons for not recognizing Dre.
The capital of Ntiair, Sersya, is inhabited by people of Eastern and Western appearances, but the neighboring countries usually have Western appearances.
In other words, looking only at the appearance of the Western world, the appearance of the Eastern world is unfamiliar.
Just as Asians are not good at distinguishing the looks of Westerners, the reverse was also the case.
Elyunar is no exception.
Regarding Dre’s appearance, the evaluation was ‘handsome.’ Or ‘Your eyes look like a dangerous person.’ The same opinion prevails.
Even if you’re not good at distinguishing looks, you can tell if he’s handsome or ugly, but if he decorates a little, uh, was he that guy? It’s common to say that.
Right now, Dre was dressed up in Zellz’s outfit.
Because of her skill, Dre radiated the dignity of a high-ranking aristocrat, if only he was careful of her actions.
The aristocrats who insulted her dress also criticized her lack of dignity, to the extent that they thought that just by looking at her appearance, she must be noble.
But she couldn’t have recognized Dre now, because the Dre she saw in the picture, though she could be called handsome, was more like an unadorned wild beast.
In fact, the reason I didn’t recognize Dre was mostly because of his folksy behavior.
Eight days. A sword of madness, a dragoon, and an instructor at Pryunar Academy. Owner of spirit magic. The unprecedented ‘teacher’ who can surely strengthen the abilities of others
Rumors about him, who all had tremendous titles, were inflated.
Compared to the hero Kaitsu, his achievements were small, but all his achievements were big enough to be recorded in history.
There is a story that this time, even in the forest of Jinma, he defended the safety of the country by defending against powerful monsters and even received a medal.
And a ‘bad reputation’ that matches, or rather exceeds, the fantasy of these achievements.
‘Is that really eight days?’
‘Is the author the maniac who caused the ‘Tragedy of Sers’?’
‘As expected, the slaughter was not planned by one person, but was done in cooperation with the royal family, whose royal power has recently been greatly strengthened?’
In fact, it was more like fear than bad reviews.
Dre has done a lot of crazy things and rumors have spread.
That the count was caught in a quarrel and destroyed the family, or that he threatens and beats the heads of teenage families.
And, as a fact that has been clearly revealed, it is famous that the nobles of Sers were eliminated en masse.
Even if you knew Dre’s face, if you didn’t know his personality, you couldn’t help but imagine a villain that would appear in a novel or movie somewhere, and it was natural to think that he would be a person who exudes considerable charisma combined with a ferocious impression.
For a combination of reasons, despite Dre’s strong reputation, people at the tea party didn’t recognize him.
Still, it can be said that it was not wrong to quarrel with a person who was still.
The aristocrats who were watching thought each other was wrong.
To be honest, other people make friends and socialize, but if I hadn’t been chewing on snacks alone, or at least in an inconspicuous place, I wouldn’t have had a fight.
It could be said that both of them were at fault, but as soon as they knew Dre’s identity, the nobles’ complexions turned dark.
Among them, Abiya, the silver-haired young lady who first complained about Dre’s lack of dignity, swallowed dryly.
A real powerful nobleman, unlike most of the gossipers who begged Charles to meet Dre.
As for why she didn’t recognize him when she said she wanted to meet Dre, she had the above reasons, but in reality she wanted to meet Katz rather than Dre.
‘They say the two of them are very close…’
According to rumors floating around somewhere, it was said that they were like brothers beyond friends who could not live without each other.
Kites are the work of a hero. Demonstrate the majesty of a god by subjugating monsters, volunteering nearby, or opening holy power. He used to return to the academy like a knife after completing official activities such as cleaning up the contaminated land.
Occasionally, even if I agree to a large-scale interview, I do not have a personal meeting.
Abiya, a fan of Kitz, wanted to talk to him somehow, so she came to see Dre, who, despite being afraid of rumors, wasn’t shy about meeting people, unlike Kitz.
She intended to connect with him and extend her connections to Kitz.
Now, well, you have to worry about yourself.
‘It’s a waste.’
He probably heard about them from Charles.
He didn’t even recognize her face and even behaved rudely when he came to see her.
She must have made a very bad impression.
‘Why on earth was this man eating snacks?’
As she knew, Dre was currently entrusting her body to Hart Street.
Considering the wealth of the Hart family, they would be eating snacks without any desire.
No, considering your abilities, you would personally have plenty of money and you could buy and eat at any time…
‘Could it be that he tested us?’
Did you want to find out what kind of people the people who came to see you were, what purpose they had, and how desperate they were?
If that’s the case, you’re much more savvy than you think.
It’s a story that while making such a bewildered expression, he was reconsidering whether or not he was worthy of a relationship.
“Excuse me…”
“I’m sorry…!”
At that time, the beautiful young lady who was talking to Dre jumped up and ran outside.
Dre stretched out her hand to her and uh… And opened her mouth stupidly.
Seeing this, the silver-haired young lady let out a sigh of relief.
‘Fortunately, he was just an idiot. Rumors were exaggerated…’
That moment.
Dre’s expression darkened.
Then, like a man who has received something very angry, whoops… He let out his breath.
It was just a sigh.
But with just one action, the air froze.
‘Uh… What is this?’
‘Ugh, ugh…’
‘Body… Don’t move…’
Like a mouse in front of a cat.
…No. As if standing naked in front of a mighty beast, you can feel the intense pressure and life.
Are you funny? What is that? Are the rumors exaggerated?
The silver-haired young lady felt her hair stand on end and cold sweat running down her forehead.
‘That dumbfounded look… Test!’
“Ah… Dream…!”
All the nobles couldn’t budge.
Only Siwoo was holding her hands together and making a happy expression.
It’s a waste.
A madang that has already been certified as Dre by Sioux. Even though everyone recognized him as ‘Eodee’ rather than a shabby aristocrat, he also showed an attitude of ignoring him.
‘…No, I’m sure he skillfully hid his inner feelings…’
Nobility even if it rots.
Unlike most scum in heat, who didn’t know that eight days were coming here and just came to ‘meet a man and woman’, Abiya is a real aristocrat who has participated in various social events. Wearing a mask to buy favor is not easy, it is natural.
But do eight days see through even that?
Burrrr. My body trembled.
If I had a strong feeling of embarrassment earlier, I was just instinctively afraid now.
“…”
Dre still looked displeased.
The gaze was not directed at the aristocrats, but even though they were looking at the floor, they had the illusion that they were glaring at them.
I thought that if I took my eyes off that man, the next moment my head would fall off.
Would you kill a noble? I didn’t feel the same complacency at all.
Nobility? Is such a position worth it to that man?
If he had been a man with authority and hindsight, he wouldn’t have caused such madness as Serth’s tragedy.
No, judging from this calculated look, maybe even that was done under thorough planning.
‘Okay… Right… !’
Sers would already be as good as his.
It would be natural for him to turn his eyes to other countries, as he maintains the best relationship with the royal family and teenage families.
Didn’t he come here as a test to secure a useful hand and to see if there was someone he could use?
Thinking so, even Charles became suspicious.
Apparently, it was they who asked to see Dre, but I wondered if Yeodre was manipulating her actions.
Of course, if Dre or Charles heard it, what would it be? I intend to say
The nobles were now narrowing their thoughts due to the tension from Dre’s pressure.
“Dre-nim. Let go of your anger.”
Siwoone politely bowed her head.
To think that the eldest daughter of Plain Boy could be so polite… It’s a creepy scene to see now.
Just how influential is it that one of the heirs of a global brand is so polite?
“…Hmm? Uh, yes.”
That one again stupid speech.
No one is fooled by the stupid-looking acting that seems to have finally learned about people’s conditions.
Before I knew it, I was just waiting for Dre’s reaction with my hands folded in the middle of the day.
Indeed, the feeling of pressure disappears as if he liked this response.
And I’m sure
This guy is the sword of madness, eight days.
The rumors were true
This man is truly powerful… And a monstrous man with extraordinary brains.
Not only Abiya, but all thoughtful nobles thought so.
“Thank you for listening to my plea.”
“…”
Siwoo slightly raised the ends of her dress with both hands and bowed.
Dre is her what? He was looking into her eyes.
It’s a bit of a strange sight.
Siu-ne put on a dress at the right time to captivate her mood, so her guests thought that the two had made an elaborate plan in advance.
‘Didn’t we know each other? What is that awkward attitude?’
‘Don’t be fooled. That’s obviously to see something in us.’
‘Kuk. Rumors were just madmen, but I didn’t expect them to be this elaborate…’
People say what kind of test is this again? Lee was anxious.
Abijah was one of them.
She glanced at her Charles and saw that she was very embarrassed.
‘Perhaps, out of these, I, Shiune, is the only collaborator I’ve talked to in advance.’
Thinking that it would be better to focus on her rather than on a man who couldn’t understand her insides, her Young lady took a deep breath and looked at Si-woo.
I can’t predict how the test will come.
I came with a light heart, but I was cornered before I knew it.
The young ladies who came with them were glaring at Abiya.
Of course, they didn’t recognize Dre either, but they were the ones who really wanted to see Dre, unlike Abiya.
Under the eyes of the young ladies who were good social partners, Abiya regretted her carelessness.
But man. It wasn’t like Glawns.
The second son of a viscount, far from worthy of succession and mediocre in skill, he is just a lucky nobleman.
He was trembling with shaking pupils.
‘What have I done…’
Now I see that this man has strength in every single action and is overflowing with charisma.
Why did I get it wrong
‘Even if I regret it, it’s already too late. Even now, I’m sorry…’
“You’re nervous.”
Dre, who had come close to him, spoke, and Gläx’s legs gave way involuntarily and he fell to his knees.
Shiune, who came to Dre’s side, raised her eyebrows.
“Like a lowly person.”
“Ugh, ugh…”
“I thought he was being rude to the sword of light flames because he had no eyes or eyes, but he was only energetic, so he was just a rude man who wanted to look good to women.”
Grenth’s legs trembled because they were all right words that pierced the dagger.
Nothing came to mind.
Saliva trickled down his mouth from his dazed head, but he didn’t even notice it.
“Where was your family?”
“That that…!”
It’s not like Shiune is asking for nothing.
No, you don’t even have to ask.
With Plain Boy’s power of intelligence, he would have been able to find out immediately. In the first place, Shiune had heard the name and family name directly from the mouth of Granges earlier.
Even so, he insisted on asking was tantamount to declaring that sanctions would be applied.
And.
“Mr. Siune.”
“!”
Dre called her in her low.
In a way, everyone was nervous about the tone that seemed tired.
“It’s okay. It was just a misunderstanding.”
“I’m sorry…!”
Siuna hurriedly lowered her head.
Dre gave her a pat on the shoulder of the one who had hit her butt.
“I’m fine today. You don’t have to worry.”
“I-I really… Am I?”
Her Grace, who hurriedly asked back without even noticing her, shut her mouth, but her eyes were already pouring out around her.
And Dre smiled benevolently.
“Of course. I usually put up with it up to three times.”
“…”
Air that gets cheaper.
And, I remembered the ‘one’ and ‘two’ that Dre said earlier.
It was a warning that she had crossed a line.
…If she crossed the line for the third time.
She would be dead
Everyone was so sure.
“I’m going first, Charles. It won’t do you any good to stay longer, right?”
The young ladies who wanted to meet Dre almost called him without realizing it, but barely held back.
A yard that has already fallen from his test. Even the image looks good, so prepare for the future…
“Hey, wait!”
“Gold.”
Charles hesitated at his name, and the nobles were frightened.
Why is his name, heir to the Hart family, now appearing?
I just called his name, and all sorts of imaginations come to mind.
Gold hostage? Or do you have his weakness? Either that, or holding on to a man named Gold…
How far does that man hide his power…!!
“Then… See you next time. Mr. Shiune. Thank you.”
“No…!”
Waving to Shiune, who greeted politely, Dre bowed to the guests and left the room.
Everyone was unable to move from the spot for a while.
It wasn’t until the collapsed Glängs started urinating that they smelled.
“Keugh…! This bastard… Peeing?!”
“What kind of person is this?”
Even his friends who came with him turned away from him and quietly ran away. Of course, Shiune remembered all of them.
Anyway, it was clear that Glängs was doomed.
