The Regressed Son of a Duke is an Assassin Chapter 64

Episode 64. To Hwangseong (1)

After the meeting with the president, I headed straight to the dormitory.

Of course, I am the only one currently fully occupying the Royal Building dormitory.

This is because no royal family is leisurely enough to stay at the academy even during vacation.

As I entered my room through the silence, I was greeted by Brian who was waiting.

“Master, this… … .”

He handed me two envelopes that appeared to be letters.

“Where did you get it?”

I started by asking about the sender of the letter.

“One was received from the Academy’s official recipient, and the other was received from the Royal House cleaner. “I asked you to deliver both of them directly to the master.”

I held the two envelopes in different hands and compared them.

On one side was a shiny gold envelope with the royal emblem of the Usif Empire stamped in the middle.

Even without looking at the contents, I could tell that it was received from an official recipient.

The other side was a very ordinary-looking white envelope.

At the bottom of the envelope was a black X whose meaning was unknown.

Maybe this is what they got from the cleaner.

Even if you haven’t checked the contents yet, if you ask which of the two letters is more important… …

Without a doubt, this is the letter I received from this cleaner.

First, I opened the relatively unimportant golden envelope.

The moment I saw the content, I immediately frowned.

“W-what is it about, master?”

“If you’re curious, read it.”

I casually handed over the paper.

“Second, invitation?!”

Brian’s eyes lit up as he read the contents.

“Yes, master! “Isn’t this a banquet invitation from the empire?”

“A banquet is a place where you wear an odd smile mask, laugh haha, and drink like no other.”

For me, it was such a boring place that I didn’t want to go even if I asked.

“B-but wasn’t it sent to the imperial family? Isn’t this a direct invitation from the Empire to you? … .”

-Sooook

Suddenly, the invitation that was in his hand slipped out.

Brian, startled, looked around for a moment.

Kayram suddenly appeared and was sitting on the sofa checking the invitation.

[It’s an invitation from the imperial family… … Ho, my master has succeeded?]

Well, by my standards, I can’t tell whether it should really be considered success.

First of all, it goes without saying that not everyone is invited to the imperial banquet.

Only the imperial guests, that is, those considered by the imperial family to be important figures of the nation, can receive this invitation.

So it is not unreasonable for Brian to say that the Empire invited me directly.

To be honest, our family is called a regular customer and we get invitations every time, but this is the first time that my name is written directly like this.

Usually, it was in the name of his father, Duke Berthe.

However, since my father was unable to participate, it was customary for my older sister, Kranz, or their children to go… … .

[Sian Bert… … If your name is written as is, it means these guys want you, right?]

I saw it right away.

It is by no means common to point out a specific person rather than a family.

The imperial family sent this invitation because they wanted only one person, me, Sian Bert, who was not a member of the Berth family.

Honestly, it doesn’t make sense.

What is the imperial family doing to me?

I know I was receiving the Emperor’s attention, but I didn’t do anything notable for two years.

Why did they send an invitation in my name now?

I rested my chin for a moment and thought about the reason.

Beside him, Kayram was reading the contents of the invitation aloud.

[…] … We would like to invite the above distinguished guests to our imperial summer banquet. Sender: Arryn Sevelus?]

For a moment, I couldn’t believe my ears.

“what?”

I quickly snatched the invitation and checked the contents again.

The moment I saw the unwelcome name written at the bottom of the invitation, a sigh came out of my mouth without me knowing.

“Ha, that’s right… … .”

There is no way the imperial family would send an invitation in my name, let alone anywhere else.

Banquet invitations usually have the name of the host written on them.

In other words, since it is an invitation from the imperial family, it would be normal for the emperor Dione Sebellus or the empress Cassandra Nephelis to be written.

But the sender on my invitation was none other than the 5th princess.

I knew very well what this meant.

[Puhahaha! It was quiet for a while, but the little princess sent me something really cute?]

Kayram seemed to realize the situation and laughed, holding his stomach.

“What do you mean by that, Kayram?”

[This is an invitation that the little princess sent to the child alone. What does it mean? In other words, she is making herself look pretty on this day, so it is a kind of love letter asking her to come see her! Would you like my owner very much? I even received a personal invitation from the princess of this country!]

“Well, I see! Congratulations. young master!”

Are these two people planning to feed their owner?

As Kayram explains, this is a personal invitation sent to me by the princess, not the imperial family.

Now I see that it was written very carefully in his own handwriting.

What on earth is this woman thinking?

Not only did they drag me to class by force, but now they are trying to drag me to their banquets as well?

I don’t know what my expectations were, but now that I know she sent it, my decision is firm.

“I’m not going.”

I threw the invitation on the table.

If you go, only trouble will happen, so there is no reason to go.

I tried to ignore Kayram’s nagging and opened the second really important envelope.

A letter written in an unknown secret language on a black background.

The sender is… … He was the head of the Silica family.

I read the letter, deciphering the secret language in my head.

First of all, the head of the family is not at the academy right now.

I’m currently somewhere else to handle personal business, and I don’t know my exact location.

Now, she has sent a new target for the mist.

Nephelis, an influential figure in the empire where Cassandra, the current empress of the Usif Empire, is located.

In other words, the target was a member of that family.

The name has not been confirmed yet, but the use of the Nephelis family means that they are aiming to be a different, big-time figure… … .

Thinking back on cases from my past life, I felt like I already knew who the target was.

Are you saying that this is all you want to do in writing?

Anyway, I guess I’ll have to stay away from here for a while.

I’ve met my sister too, there’s no reason to sit around in the academy anymore.

If possible, go somewhere far away from the imperial castle… … .

“hmm?”

Suddenly, memories of my past life passed through my mind.

Empress, Marquis Nephelis, assassinated.

I think there was one important incident related to the words you just mentioned?

As I searched my memory, I checked the bottom of the letter for the location and date of the place.

This continues like this.

I haven’t heard from the head of the family yet, but the goal has become clear.

Assassination of Draennian Nephelis, the Emperor’s brother-in-law and Empress Cassandra’s younger brother.

In my previous life, it was an incident that had a huge impact on the entire continent, including the empire.

As I was just a junior at the time, I was just stuck in the dorm swinging a wooden sword, so there was no direct connection.

This time, I was able to directly participate in a mission that had quite an impact in my previous life.

The feeling was so new that I was almost surprised.

-Growling

He created a small flame from his hand and burned the letter on the spot.

Instead, he picked up the princess’s half-heartedly thrown invitation and sealed it again.

It wasn’t my intention, but it would be a good excuse to go to the imperial castle with my current status anyway.

There is no reason not to use it.

but… … .

My eyes naturally turned to Brian and Kayram.

In addition, our little boy is sleeping soundly in that room.

What should I do with them?

They say you can keep Kayram in your arms and take Brian as a guardian knight, but Nana is the problem.

If you leave it alone and something happens, it won’t even be able to be resolved.

It’s not like we can just lock them in a cave and let them sleep for two weeks.

Should I take him to the capital first and then leave it to the other members of the Mist?

Putting aside the actual mission, I was seriously thinking about what to do with Nana, so it was a moment that made me shake my head.

Come to think of it, didn’t he sleep for quite a long time?

“Isn’t it past time for me to wake up? “Since when has he been sleeping?”

“I went to bed at the same time as usual, but I think I woke up a little late today. “Let me check it out.”

Nana’s daily routine is to take a nap for about 5 hours after lunch.

But now the sun had already set and it was well past 6 o’clock.

Normally, before I even prepare a meal, I would say, ‘Papa, I’m hungry!’ I was whining while doing this, but today I guess I had a dream where I was in a dessert world.

-clutter

“Papa I’m hungry!”

As soon as I thought that Yongin would wake up if I told him (?), Nana opened the door and came out.

“Okay, I’ve prepared dinner, so let’s quickly wash our hands and go to the table…” … .”

… … ?

Me, Brian, and Kayram.

The six eyes in the room, excluding Nana’s, are shaking violently.

I can guarantee that right now, these eyes are suspecting that they are seeing something wrong.

“Um, master over there? What does Nana look like now… … ?”

Do you guys understand? I have to have raised Yongin to know this.

A state of nakedness without a single thread.

It’s not that I’m not wearing clothes.

It seems like the clothes I was wearing got too small and came off.

“What’s wrong, Papa?”

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and tilted her head.

[I’m just staring at something good! Don’t you blink?!]

Finally, Kayram came out, grabbed Brian’s head, and lowered his head.

[Hey Kid! Why did you come out naked?]

“huh? I don’t know either. “When I opened my eyes, I didn’t have any clothes that fit?”

Nana said, gently wagging her tail that seemed to be twice as long as before.

I knew they were a fast-growing race, but is it okay for them to grow without warning like this?

I’m telling you this out of fear of misunderstanding, but Nana has shown remarkable growth over the past two years.

Roughly speaking, in human terms, it’s about 6 years old?

It has been growing day by day, but recently it has become quiet, and I thought it might slow down a bit now.

A little boy who was less than half my height just yesterday grew to reach my chest in one day?

She almost looked like a new female student just entering the academy.

“… … ?”

Nana’s bright eyes were shining as if asking what was the problem.
