The Return of the Destruction Level Death Knight Episode 46
Episode 46: Banquet (2)
“Oh, Jackson, look at that. “They say it’s the cosmetics of the Michu school.”
Sophia Russell could not help but be amazed as she looked at the items the nobles gave to the Count.
These were treasures that a small family like Viscount Russell could not even dream of.
“Sophia, there is nothing to be jealous of. “I’ll buy you something better later.”
“really? “I’ll just trust Jackson.”
This was when Sophia Russell hugged Jackson Cutter’s neck.
“You were here.”
A harsh voice came from behind. The two people looked back in surprise.
“S-Master!”
Jackson Cutter shouted with a surprised face. It was surprising that the teacher, who had not been seen since the banquet began, suddenly appeared.
“Where have you been?”
“I came here after investigating the participants. “Because we need measures to deal with Damian Haxen.”
At Jacques Noiret’s words, Jackson Cutter’s expression almost crumpled.
“There is something you must do. “Go and give this gift to the Count.”
Jacques Noiret said, holding out a glass bottle.
The glass bottle contained a fluorescent liquid.
“What is this?”
“It’s Lady Olivia’s birthday present.”
“So why do I have to offer this to the lady… … .”
Jacques Noiret’s eyes turned cold.
Jackson Cutter was afraid that his teacher would be angry, so he quickly took the elixir.
“Master, I think you should still tell me a little about this elixir. “That way, when you hand it to the Count, you’ll have an explanation.”
“You don’t have to worry about that. “Everyone will recognize it even if you don’t have to say it.”
Jackson Cutter felt puzzled by Jacques Noiret’s explanation.
“So don’t worry and come out quickly.”
Jacques Noiret pushed Jackson Cutter’s back. Jackson had no choice but to walk towards where the Count was.
“Jackson, together… … .”
“You stay here.”
Jacques Noiret blocks Sophia Russell.
“yes? why… … .”
Jacques Noiret glared at her without saying a word.
Sophia Russell, who tried to ask the reason, had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.

Jackson Cutter stepped in front of Count Copperhead holding a gift from his master.
“Your Excellency the Earl, my name is Jackson Cutter.”
Jackson Cutter said, getting down on one knee.
“Jackson Cutter? Does anyone know who it is?”
“well. “This is my first time hearing this name.”
There was not a single nobleman who recognized Jackson Cutter’s name.
Jackson Cutter bit his lip in silence.
“Jackson Cutter? Jackson Cutter… … .”
The Count also did not recognize Jackson Cutter. Jackson Cutter’s face became even redder.
“Your Excellency, just a moment… … .”
At that time, the butler came up and whispered to the count. The Count’s eyes widened slightly.
“You are Jackson Cutter, the ogre slayer.”
“It’s an honor to recognize you!”
As soon as his title came out of the earl’s mouth, Jackson Cutter’s face instantly brightened.
“Let’s kill the ogre? “It’s my first time hearing this title.”
“Oh, I’ve heard of it. I heard there was a young knight who hunted ogres alone. “I guess that’s the article.”
“You mean you caught that monster by yourself? “Your skills are amazing.”
The nobles began to murmur over Jackson Cutter.
Jackson Cutter’s smile became even brighter as his name came up and down from the nobles’ mouths.
“Your Excellency, I will offer this item to you, Lady.”
Jackson Cutter took out the elixir and held it out with both hands.
“What is that? “What kind of potion is it?”
“That red fluorescent color… … Surely it’s not an elixir of vitality concentration?”
“Isn’t it an elixir to not get tired all day by drinking just one sip?”
“This is a product sold only to specific customers by the Yeondan School, but how can they… … .”
The nobles’ reaction was explosive.
If that elixir was indeed an elixir of vitality concentration, it was an item so great that it could not be compared to the gifts that had come out so far.
“It’s an elixir of vitality concentration! “How did you get this precious thing?”
The Count’s reaction was especially strong.
Now that I was old, I was no longer interested in my health.
“Olivia, look! “Don’t you think it’s a truly amazing gift?”
“Yes.”
Olivia said in an emotionless voice. She didn’t show much interest in the gift this time either.

“Good. very good.”
The count had a servant deliver the elixir of vitality concentration.
The Count, holding the elixir in his hand, examined it with satisfied eyes.
Technically, the elixir was Olivia Copperhead’s birthday present, but no one pointed out that fact.
This is because most of the gifts given by nobles were already for the earl.
“Jackson Cutter, I will remember your name.”
“Yes, Your Excellency.”
Jackson Cutter stood up with a satisfied face.
The moment I turned around and tried to return to my original position, I stopped.
Damian Haxen was walking out.
“Damian Hak… … .”
Damian Haxen passed Jackson Cutter.
In complete disregard, Jackson Cutter clenched his fists tightly.
* * *
Damian stood before Count Copperhead.
“You are Damian Haxen.”
Even though he did not reveal his name, Count Copperhead recognized Damian.
“There has been a lot of buzz these days with rumors about you.”
“It’s just a humble reputation.”
Damien Haxen slightly bowed his head and said.
“How insignificant! “How insignificant is Marquis Lyonblum’s victory over the Archduke!”
Count Copperhead said, shaking his head.
“No matter what, it is an exaggerated rumor that the Archduke was defeated without even drawing his sword. Hahaha.”
The other nobles also burst into laughter at the count’s words.
Among them, only Damian Haxen laughed silently.
“I also prepared a gift for you.”
As he said that, Damian Haxen looked at Olivia Copperhead.
Olivia Copperhead had her head down.
Even though it was a banquet held just for him, he didn’t seem the slightest bit interested.
‘She’s a picky woman.’
This was true even when Damian showed up.
I’m already having a headache wondering how I can connect Abel with a woman like this.
“This is my brother Abel.”
Damian first introduced Abel.
However, Lady Olivia still had her head down and could not see Abel’s face.
“Abel, give the bow to the lady.”
Abel swallowed dry saliva and walked towards Olivia Copperhead.
“Oh my, what does that say? bow?”
“I heard that Lady Olivia likes hunting.”
“But it’s a really strange-looking bow.”
All the nobles in the banquet hall began to whisper.
That’s why the bow Abel was holding didn’t look that good.
“… … bow?”
At the word bow, Lady Olivia finally raised her head.
As soon as they saw the bow Abel was holding, their pupils widened significantly.
Lady Olivia carefully handed over the bow. She then caressed her bow with her haunted eyes.
“… … “It’s a bow made from the horn of a minotaur, right?”
And when he saw the gift for the first time, he opened his mouth.
“Yes, you guessed it correctly. “It is a bow made from the horn of a minotaur, especially the leader of them.”
“Incredible… … I heard that the Minotaur is a monster that even middle classes find difficult… … “It’s even harder to meet them.”
Damian added an explanation.
“As you know, my lady, the minotaur horn has excellent properties for making weapons.”
“Yes, I know. “It’s as hard as steel, but as elastic as bamboo.”
“You are correct.”
Indeed, the rumor that he liked hunting was not fake.
“Would you like to take a closer look at the bowsprit? The name of the craftsman who made the bow is engraved on it.”
At Damian’s words, the lady looked at the bow. As Damian said, the name was engraved on it.
“… … Auguste? Could it be that it was produced by Captain Auguste?”
“you’re right.”
Auguste.
He was the most famous craftsman in the Apple Kingdom.
His metallurgical skills were so outstanding that there were rumors that he had studied metallurgy from a dwarf.
Of course, there was no way dwarves would teach metallurgy to humans, so it was just a rumor.
Lady Olivia could hardly take her eyes off the bow. It seemed like everyone liked it.
“The equipment made by Auguste… … “I never thought I would see something like this in my lifetime.”
Count Copperhead was also impressed by the bow.
However, the count was impressed by the value of the bow, not the bow.
“In the past, a shield made by Auguste was put on the auction house, and the price jumped dozens of times.”
The Count looked at the bow with greedy eyes. He seemed to be calculating the value of this bow in his mind.
“This is what my younger brother Abel worked hard to obtain for today.”
In fact, it was an item that Damian Haxen obtained through a deal with the Marquis, but the truth was not important.
“Really? “You saved it for me?”
Olivia Copperhead looked up in great surprise.
Olivia Copperhead finally got to see Abel’s face.
The moment she saw Abel’s face, Lady Olivia’s mouth opened slightly. A blush appeared on both cheeks.
‘what… … .’
If Damien was not mistaken, there was only one emotion that Lady Olivia felt.
‘Was he also the one who brightened his face?’

“I can’t stand a guest who brought such a precious gift. “Hey, please bring more chairs.”
At the Count’s order, the servants brought two more chairs and placed them.
“You two, sit down quickly.”
Damian sat next to the Count. Naturally, the seat next to Lady Olivia became Abel’s seat.
“Sir Damian, I’ve always wanted to talk to you.”
Count Copperhead asked as he poured himself a drink.
“If you don’t mind, I would like to hear directly what happened during the duel with Marquis Ryan Bloom.”
“You probably won’t find it interesting to hear it.”
“Still, I’m curious, so I’d like to hear it.”
Damian clicked his tongue inwardly.
Originally, Damian wasn’t the type to talk about things like this.
But now was the time to endure it for Abel.
Abel and Lady Olivia have a chance to become friends. I couldn’t miss it.
“If you really want to hear it… … .”
Damian slowly began to unravel what he had experienced during the duel.
Count Copperhead listened to Damian’s story with great interest.
While he was talking, Damien glanced sideways at Abel and Lady Olivia.
“There is a forest next to Viscount Haksen? “Oh my, it must be so beautiful.”
“Well, it’s not that great of a place. Joe, it’s small and there aren’t many animals… … .”
“It looks like there are no dangerous beasts. “It must be so peaceful.”
Things were going fairly smoothly.
Olivia Copperhead was leading the conversation. She seemed to be very interested in Abel.
‘I was wondering how the two became lovers in their past lives… … .’
Damian found the answer to the secret.
‘Actually, you didn’t need a bow, right?’
Wasn’t it a vain effort to receive the bow from Marquis Lionbloom?
Damian thought seriously for a moment.
