Chapter 77 – I’m sure someone is behind me – 2

Darius Melatoon Arcus.

A son of a great culinary master who cannot be treated as a proper person if he does not know the name among chefs and gourmets.

He learned to cook and went through many hardships and adversity, but now he was facing tremendous fear and pressure that he had never faced in his life.

“Senior Darius. Who is behind you?”

His man standing in front of him, Alberto Salihar Meidern, was looking at him with a smile.

Perhaps because of Alberto’s complex, narrow eyes, he couldn’t read his emotions through his pupils at all.

However, the intangible energy emanating from Alberto was weighing down his shoulders.

“Keugh… ….”

“Please tell me quickly. Who is it? Who hid behind Darius-senpai and fabricated this incident?”

Alberto was pressuring Darius with a confident tone.

Alberto’s intangible momentum was getting stronger and stronger.

The momentum emitted by a warrior who reached the level of an aura expert could easily kill an ordinary person.

An uninhabited island that has just entered Aura Expert, it can exude the momentum to kill an ordinary person, but what about a sword master?

The reason that Darius is now alive and able to take on Alberto’s momentum wasn’t because Darius was great.

“I don’t want to hurt the children of the great culinary master any more. So tell me. Who is it?”

It was simply because he did not want to hurt the restraint of the great culinary master whom Alberto himself admired.

If Darius had been from an ordinary family, not from the Arcus family, Alberto would have forced him to open his mouth by breaking his arm or leg.

“Horse… Could… doesn’t exist!”

Darius barely held on in front of Alberto’s momentum and opened his mouth.

Obviously, he could never tell Alberto who was behind him or who had created this plan.

“Hmm…… Are you going to come out like that?”

“Since you’ve already been caught, I can’t give you more information than this.”

Darius, whose blood vessels burst due to Alberto’s momentum and his face and eyes turned red, but despite this, he held on without opening his mouth with great patience.

Darius recalled the story Alberto had told him while looking at him.

‘Whenever he tells a lie, his nostrils slightly enlarge. There, his eyes slightly twitched. Just like now.’

Alberto, in that split second, noticed the slightest difference in the way he looked when he lied.

Indeed, I could say that he had great eyesight.

Unless you are a very skilled warrior, you will not be able to notice the unconscious behavior like Alberto.

Darius finally realized what kind of being he was dealing with.

‘If I make a mistake, I could die here today.’

Of course, Alberto wouldn’t kill Darius.

Darius was scared, but he decided to face it.

A situation of dilemma where you can’t do this or that anyway.

I’d rather risk everything and go head-to-head.

“One momentum… Great.”

“Yeah, I trained to be strong. Rather, please tell me. Who is it? Who planned this event?”

“Why do you think someone other than me planned this?”

Darius asked Alberto’s question in reverse.

On what basis did he ask if there was someone behind him?

“Because it is… First of all, isn’t Darius-senpai an authentic chef who is good at cooking? By the way, could an orthodox chef use his brain like this and deliberately spread rumors and do something that would bring someone’s reputation to the ground?”

“Didn’t you think I was spreading rumors?”

“Let’s try to think that senior spread rumors. If so, what is the benefit to you, senpai?”

The moment Darius heard Alberto’s guess, his head went blank as if he had been punched.

When Darius spreads the rumor, what profit will he return to himself?

Well, of course, wouldn’t there be a certain benefit in the downfall of the abomination that killed his lovely brother?

However, that was only a benefit that Darius himself was aware of.

When viewed objectively from a third person’s point of view, Alberto’s loss of honor did not benefit Darius.

In addition, the only thing Darius cared about Rodren was his closest people, including Horus and Albinus.

In other words, the relationship between Rodren and Darius was not widely known at the Royal Academy.

In the first place, it was difficult to meet often at the Royal Academy because they were different subjects.

“Of course, even if Darius-senpai didn’t spread rumors, seeing how he over-protected Albinus, I could sense that there was something involved.”

At Alberto’s words, Darius came to his senses and began to roll his head.

A mistake here would make further operations impossible.

From noble mtl dot com.

[Sonbaim. From now on, just do as I say.]

At that time, I heard the voice of Horus in my ear.

To be precise, Horus’s intentions were transmitted to Darius’ head.

Darius, roused to his senses by the voice of Horus, opened his mouth and began to answer Alberto’s question.

“Alberto. To be clear, neither Albinus nor I have anything to do with the rumors. Probably, someone who was watching it spread it.”

“Can you take responsibility for that?”

[Tell me that you will take responsibility. Anyway, the guy who spread the rumors was dealt with a long time ago.]

“I can take responsibility. As far as I know, one of the servants nearby misunderstood and spread the rumor.”

At Darius’ words, Alberto put his hand to his chin.

His answer was that it was not very good.

“That alone is not enough.”

[First of all, I’m going to make the strategy a little longer. Please tell Sunbaim to take responsibility for the rumor and put the rumor to rest.]

“I will take responsibility and put to rest any malicious rumors about you. Albinus, too, I’ll tell you, so don’t worry about anything.”

Darius, following Horus’ advice, was speaking in a way that calmed Alberto down.

“All right. Anyway, I have to stick with him this time.”

However, the voice of Albinus came from behind Darius and the blood drained from his face.

“Oh, Albinus?”

“It’s okay. Now, even if I fight against that guy, I won’t lose.”

Albinus was emitting more ferocious spirit than before.

It was only a few days ago that Alberto and Albinus met.

However, in those few days, Albinus’ skills grew rapidly.

From the lower level of Aura Expert, it has now risen to the highest level.

“At least an intermediate level of sword expert. Right now, I am the highest level of Aura Expert. Now I am stronger than that guy.”

Albinus looked at Alberto and showed his confident attitude to the fullest.

“Is that true?”

“Yes. Now, that means you don’t have to look at him anymore.”

“Ooh!”

Alberto listened to what Darius and Albinus were saying and watched with interest.

Albinus looked at Alberto and laughed.

“Sword expert intermediate level. It’s not a great realm. However, now I have reached the highest level of Aura Expert. Besides, aren’t you in a situation without a weapon right now?”

Albinus said, extending his finger towards Alberto.

Certainly, as he said, Alberto is now without a weapon.

If we continued to fight like this, there was a very high chance that Alberto would lose.

“Ha ha ha ha ha. Even that proud sword aura, in the end, you need to have a weapon to use it. Do you really have a weapon right now?”

Albinus was obviously provoking Alberto.

Now that he was at a higher level, he was fully expressing his confidence that he could win with certainty.

“Whoops, now I’ll break your arrogant nose and prove that I’m the strongest. Then the world will recognize me!”

“Wow… ….”

Seeing Albinus confidently revealing his aspirations, Alberto brushed his ears off as if he had heard something he shouldn’t have heard.

“Ugh, I almost got into trouble.”

Of course, from Alberto’s point of view, a flying insect suddenly appeared and tried to get into his ear, so he brushed it off, but it seemed that it looked different to Albinus.

“Lee Ja-sik, how dare you ignore the words of a senior like the sky?”

Albinus thought that Alberto was ignoring what he was saying, so he ran towards Alberto.

“Oh no!”

“Today, I will defeat you and prove that I am the strongest in the Royal Academy!”

Darius tried to reach out, but Albinus kicked the ground and charged Alberto.

Alberto avoided Albinus’ attack by slightly leaning over, and took out the butter knife from his chest and swung it at Albinus.

When his attack missed, Albinus turned and tried to attack Alberto.

“Why is my body not listening?”

However, contrary to his thoughts, his body did not listen to his commands at all.

As Albinus questioned this, a solid red line began to be drawn around his neck.

“… ….”

When the solid red line completely covered Albinus’ neck, blood gushed out and Albinus’ head separated from the body and fell to the ground.

“This is slow. Actions and thoughts.”

In Alberto’s fingertips, laughing at Albinus, was a blunt butter knife used to spread butter on bread.

After confirming that Albinus had been decapitated, the blood completely disappeared from Darius’ face, and despair set in.
