Solo Swordmaster

#796 You’re asking how.

Follow me, ttadan ttadan.

music flows

Calm yet beautiful.

Even if it gently raises the atmosphere.

so as not to interfere with the conversation.

The ensemble that maintains an exquisite gap is first-class evidence.

As befits the performers invited to this banquet, it was wonderful.

However, there was not a single person who admired or showed interest in the performance.

From the Seven Princesses, who are the owners of the Seven Dragon Group, and their entourage, to the Seven Dragons who participated as escorts.

There was no one in this room who was not familiar with this level of playing.

[Wow, those older sisters and older brothers are really good at playing.]

[…Excellent.]

[Right? Shera, don’t you think so too?]

Of course, one non-human was an exception.

Yuna-kyung, who took a seat at a table, munched on food and enjoyed the performance at a leisurely pace.

When the drink runs out, the unattended vacuum cleaner next to you squeezes fresh fruit and pours it for you.

There is no time to get bored chatting with Shera floating above.

Truly, the new seller is the best seller.

It was probably enough to be sure that no other participant was enjoying the banquet as innocently as she.

However, Yuna-kyung did not notice the others.

I just ate and drank with pride.

Because Yuna-kyung, who made a big success by borrowing the power of spirits and descending from Hwasin on Shinmahapil, deserved a reward.

… she thought.

However, the eyes of others were slightly different.

“Horus 20, this one is also delicious, so try it.”

[Oh, thank you. Entourage unnie.]

“No, don’t say anything.”

A girl dressed in traditional Egyptian-style clothing instead of her usual baggy military uniform sitting in front of Yuna-kyung casually placing a plate.

Nadia smiled shyly.

“It’s only natural to take care of your mother’s pet.”

[Hey, unnie is also very sincere. It would be nice to enjoy it a little more comfortably in a place like this.]

“Hey, serving the princess is the most fun.”

a wry face.

A strangely sluggish tone of voice.

As always, it’s full of gaps and looks lax.

So, without realizing the subtle weight of her words, Nadia sneakily asked Yun Na-gyeong, who was admiring her.

“By the way, Horus 20, don’t you think our princess is really pretty?”

[Hmm, the soldier is beautiful.]

“Isn’t it? Besides, she has a lot of money, and she’s generous when she needs it.”

[That’s right, he wrote it very cheerfully.]

“Besides, it’s because he’s a bit blunt, and he’s also a single-minded single-minded person who never looks back once he’s fallen for it.”

[That’s what I know…]

The others, of course.

Nadia doesn’t know yet.

When Yun Na-gyeong, recalling the secret space in the basement of the Egyptian palace, makes a vague expression.

A word that insinuates.

“The person who can marry someone like a princess must be the luckiest person in the world, right?”

[Really…?]

“I agree that the Red Dragon Princess is a great bride, but I don’t think I can agree with that.”

While Yuna-kyung was about to nod her head inadvertently like before.

The one who intervened from the side.

Nadia tilted her head slightly as she saw the man with a sword in a neat uniform instead of the flashy armor he always wore.

“…What do you mean by that, Sir Lucas?”

“That’s what I mean, Ms. Nadia.”

It’s like you don’t know the meaning.

Confused Nadia.

However, Lucas is a knight who speaks as if cutting with a sword, though he is always polite to her, whose eyes are deeply sunken.

“The luckiest person in the world is the one who will become our princess’s sire.”

“Uhm, is that so?”

“of course.”

“I think a little differently.”

“It’s Miss Nadia’s freedom to think so…”

From an objective point of view.

Hasneti, the tyrant of Africa,

is a rose with a high reputation in the British Empire.

Isn’t it decided which of the two would be the more perfect bride?

Nadia narrowed her eyes as she saw Lucas, who hadn’t spoken directly, but whose attitude was obvious.

[…Uh hmm. Excuse me?]

And Yuna-kyung, who was eating the cake, rolled her eyes.

It was because even as a woman who hadn’t noticed, she could feel something strange about the atmosphere.

But that was just the beginning.

“You’re making a funny joke.”

“Yes, it’s already been decided who the best wife is.”

Sisters Barbara and Arbella interrupt, saying that it is a well-known fact just because they received the ring for the first time.

“I would like to think how confidently you can say a lie that has a probability of less than 1%.”

“It is a matter of course that the swordsmith cherishes our princess the most.”

Kana pointed it out with a cold face.

Even the boldly declared Tata.

Nadia erases her faltering smile and Lucas frowns at the appearance of another intruder.

Yuna-kyung opened her beak wide.

Because it was only then that I realized why they were doing this.

‘No matter how long there is a saying to shoot a horse… I’m not a horse, but a blue bird!’

Of course I could understand.

Since all seven princesses have already become Limon’s brides, both formally and unofficially.

It was natural for him as an aide to make an effort to make the princess he serves first.

However, thanks to that, Yuna-kyung, who suddenly became like a blue bird bursting in the fight with the sword master, had no choice but to break out in a cold sweat.

‘Chief, save me!’

That’s why Yuna-kyung eagerly sent a rescue signal with a wink… but

she soon understood.

It means that you will never be saved.

That would be the case, because compared to the atmosphere of Limon and the princesses, this side was nothing.

“I was wondering why this place was designated as a banquet hall, but it’s not bad.”

“Hawaii has been famous as a resting place for spirits since the golden age.”

A green-haired beauty holding a glass of champagne on one side of the banquet hall and looking at the ever-changing scenery of the banquet hall according to the music.

Li Qingyu, who was next to Maia’s words, smiled and took a sip of juice.

“Yeah, I think I’ll make a place like this in my country.”

“I’m talking about building the Kremlin.”

“Ah, what about the palace? If you need affection, you can take care of Ainsha’s palace.”

“I don’t have a room in my palace. When I come, I’ll prepare myself at the stable.”

Ainsha, who was holding a plate of dessert in one hand, spoke expressionlessly to Yekatrice, who was sipping vodka.

And beside him, holding a wine glass, Rose was talking to Hasneti, who was drinking mead.

“…I heard that the peace agreement with the African Union has been successfully concluded.”

“It’s thanks to you moving the Kilimanjaro Autonomous Government.”

“I didn’t do anything. They chose to do it themselves.”

calm and

Calmly.

talking to each other

The appearance of the girls enjoying alcohol and food was so peaceful compared to the Chilryong branch so far that it seemed strange to them.

…Yes.

It’s just the appearance.

However, the atmosphere was not so calm.

The reason was that all of them were looking in the same direction without blinking an eye while they were talking.

The center of this banquet hall.

follow the flowing music.

A white-haired man stepping on the steps.

And to the blonde beauty who is holding one hand and stepping together while being hugged by the waist.

If you take a step, you take a step back, and if you lean your body slightly, you will naturally adhere to that bosom.

elegant

As perfect as a dream.

dazzlingly beautiful.

The sight of the two men and women dancing together was so fantastic that I couldn’t take my eyes off it.

…to the extent that the six pairs of gazes sink deeply and heavily, mixed with envy and coolness of longing instead of admiration.

“Hey, Ainsha. Honestly, don’t you think it’s a bit cowardly?”

“I’d like to know what you’re talking about.”

“I mean Charlotte.”

“…”

“Isn’t it too cowardly to take over your brother’s first dance in the name of being the organizer?”

“Anyway, a host is a host. Don’t be dissatisfied with things that have already been arranged.”

“Anyway, my brother is too nice.”

grow up

With a smile as always.

But looking at Limon and Charlotte with non-smiling eyes, Yekathrice murmured.

“I’d like to jump in there and mess around right now.”

as long as they were gathered together.

There was no princess who did not listen to Yekathrice’s words.

However, there was no princess who was shaken by her words.

Even though there was a slight difference in direction, it was the same for everyone that they couldn’t calmly pass over that scene.

The good news is that everything has an end.

So was the dance.

It’s different.

The moment when the continuous performance finally reached its peak and stopped.

Limon stopped dancing.

And then, after releasing the arms that were holding Charlotte’s waist.

By kissing lightly on the back of her hand, he returned to the six princesses who had been looking at him for the last time.

“Okay, who’s next?”

There was no way they couldn’t feel their gaze.

When the other princesses smiled bitterly or sighed at the brazenness of the groom who reached out his hand softly.

It was Maia who held his hand without hesitation.

“It’s me.”

“Hmm, is that so?”

“Are there any problems?”

“I just wanted to dance with the doctor in a long time.”

“Heh, I guess you’re good at talking.”

Seeing Limon talking about their memories of fighting together in the Amazon, Maia let out a sneer, as always.

Contrary to what he said, however, she was naturally drawn to him and headed towards the center of the banquet hall together.

And….

after another after another.

As the stopped performance resumed, the two started dancing.

Limon and Maia are not as elegant or perfect as they were in Charlotte, but instead move splendidly to the much stronger and more intense music.

While watching their tango, the other princess looks even colder.

Yekathrice suddenly turned her head.

And as if taking turns with Maia.

She spoke casually to Charlotte, who was standing in the empty seat watching the two of them with her arms crossed.

“By the way, Charlotte, I have a question for you.”

“What do you mean?”

“Why are all the dinner menus grass-fed? Besides, why are most of the menus hamburgers?”

Gulp.

Ekatriche tilts her head as she swallows a substitute meat dish made from soybeans as a snack.

Charlotte said languidly.

“I happened to find a good cook, so I entrusted a banquet to check before investing.”

“Are you going to enter the food service industry?”

“Even if you don’t advance, isn’t it natural to invest in a business that will succeed?”

“Hmm, anyway, I’m glad it’s not because I’m crazy. I was a little worried about whether my brain had gone wrong because of the drunkard.”

Maybe I was really worried .

Maybe it was because the opportunity to tease Charlotte was fun

.

You mean?”

“What did you mean?”

“I’m asking what the way you’ve been thinking.”

As the other princesses, who had been fixating their eyes on Limon and Maia up until now, turn their heads for the first time.

Catherine, as always, jokes. “This banquet was held

to determine rank among us, wasn’t it?”
