Episode 02. Dragon Slayer
Everyone gathered in the training hall was astonished.
One of the five-year-olds who came to our home this year showed unexpected behavior.
Verdin de Strange, the youngest son of the main family, with sharp eyes filled with venom.
While the children were running with all their might to choose Bae Hu-ryeong, he held a shabby jar nearby with a relaxed expression.
‘You idiots. You guys can’t make a contract with Siegfried anyway.’
Because the jar won’t break unless you are chosen.
Boom-
Verdin threw the jar toward the center of the training ground.
Clink!
At the same time, two jars broke.
One is the shabby jar he threw. Another one was the most gorgeous one among the jars in the gymnasium.
The embarrassed children stopped and looked.
Their parents and even the knights performing the ritual who were watching this scene were helpless at Verdin’s sudden behavior.
I just look at Verdin and the jar alternately with wide eyes.
Some of them thought, ‘How dare you ruin this sacred ceremony!’ but they did not say it out loud.
In fact, the owner of the Strange family is quietly observing the situation, so how can others voice their opinions first?
Not only the head of the family but also the elders remained silent.
Verdin smiled at them.
‘As expected, you are not intervening. No, you probably can’t do it. ‘Because I hadn’t decided on a way to break the jar anyway.’
I just told him to wake up.
Shhh!
Smoke billowed out strongly from the two broken jars.
The two Bae Hu-ryeong who were trapped inside were revealed.
A lance knight with a sturdy physique and silver armor and a swordsman with long flowing red hair.
On one side, he is the first head of the Strange family and an emperor who succeeded in conquering the continent.
The other is a hero who inherited the blood of the Strange family and brought peace by slaying the dragon that came from the other world.
Both were Bae Hu-ryeong, who dominated an era.
Turf, plod, trudge.
Verdin stood in front of the two with an indifferent expression. Then he whispered softly to the two Bae Hu-ryeong.
“Fight. “Whoever wins will be with me.”
It was an absurd proposition.
No, to be precise, it was closer to a threat than a suggestion.
The two Bae Hu-ryeong were so shocked that they said nothing. I just looked at Verdin with an absurd expression.
What kind of confidence does this kid have to act like this towards us?
Although it was absurd, I couldn’t treat Verdin’s majestic appearance carelessly.
‘… ‘That’s fun.’
Lois de Strange twitched the corner of her mouth and stroked her beard.
I have already observed dozens of rituals, but no one has ever done something like this.
Not only was he bold enough to break two jars at the same time, but one of them was the Sword God Jar, which no one had had for a hundred years, and he broke it so easily.
A smile appeared on Lois’s lips. She tried not to show it, but she couldn’t hide her expression.
“If we don’t fight, let’s choose neither.”
Verdin turned his back.
“Then you know better what happens, right?”
Calm voice and light hand gestures.
On the other hand, the two Bae Hu-ryeong, who had become impatient, waved their hands and pursed their lips.
It seemed like he wanted to say something, but conversation was impossible.
Because the voice of Bae Hu-ryeong, who did not sign a contract, cannot be heard.
As a few seconds passed, Bae Hu-ryeong glared at each other as if they were going to kill each other.
They made eye contact, nodded, and pointed their weapons.
Perhaps he accepted Verdin’s offer and pledged to fight.
Those who were called kings and heroes fell for the threats of a mere five-year-old.
Verdin slowly turned his head to see Bae Hu-ryeong’s reaction.
The two have already begun a spectacular battle.
However, there were very few people who could watch this.
No matter how much they have the blood of the Strange family, those who do not open their spirit cannot see Bae Hu-ryeong in person.
In that case, those who witnessed this scene must have opened their energy or had equivalent abilities.
There are only a few people here who have that level of power.
‘Amazing.’
The third child of the Strange family, ‘Valentine de Strange’, who happened to witness this scene, clapped his hands without realizing it.
Normally, I would never have participated in an event like this. It was by chance that she participated in her ritual today.
I just came to say hello to my father while I was at home. I never thought I would witness something so amazing firsthand.
She carefully walked next to Lois.
“father.”
Lois put her index finger close to her lips without answering.
Valentine, realizing what he meant, bowed his head and took a step back.
My father must have also been quite surprised by Bae Hu-ryeong’s fight.
“Valentine.”

“Yes, father.”
“How long did it take for you to consciously break the jar?”
“It took about an hour.”
“okay?”
“yes. Because the jar I chose first rejected the contract. “It was a little late because I was looking for Bae Hu-ryeong, who was the best among the remaining jars.”
“They refused the contract… .”
“I still remember it. I hit it with my fist with all my might, but it didn’t break. “It’s as if it’s blocked by an invisible barrier.”
“… … .”
As time passed, the battle between the two Bae Hu-ryeongs came to an end.
The silver smoke that hit the vital spot with the red smoke poured down on the ground and failed to maintain its shape.
Siegfried, who had won victory after a long fight, moved his lips vigorously with an angry expression.
I couldn’t hear what he was saying, but it seemed like he was swearing.
Verdin slowly walked in front of the surviving Siegfried. He smiled brightly and stretched out his hands.
“My name is Verdin. He is your descendant, the one who will be called the Sword King from now on, and the one who will become the master of this continent.”
* * *
“Let the ritual end.”
Royce’s voice rang loudly in the training hall.
At the same time, those who participated in the ceremony were filled with joy and sorrow.
Someone succeeded in choosing Bae Hu-ryeong and was able to take advantage of the opportunity to rise in status. Another person was unable to have Bae Hu-ryeong, so his future was dim.
I can’t believe that the lives of children who are only five years old are decided like this. The fate of those born into the Strange family was harsh and cruel.
Again, again, again, again.
The training ground where everyone has left.
Lois, the matriarch, was left alone and began to walk along the trail of consciousness.
Next, his steps stopped at a place where pieces of a ruby-colored jar were spread out.
This was the location where Siegfried the Swordsman signed a contract with Verdin.
“… “Even I couldn’t break this jar.”
Normally, he would have left as soon as the ceremony was over, but there was only one reason why he stayed until now.
The jar that even he, who is said to be the current strongest swordsman, was not chosen was broken.
Not one, but two at the same time. It was hard to believe, but I saw it firsthand.
“Amazing.”
Lois continued to let out the exclamations she had been hiding.
I didn’t mean to deny what happened today. I was just proud of Verdin, who was born with amazing talent.
Lois, the head of the family, is away from the castle at least 360 days out of 365 days a year.
Sometimes he carried out missions from the empire or went up to the tower for several years to train, so he had few opportunities to meet five-year-old Verdin.
It’s just a matter of how many children there are in the main family and how they are growing up being reported through the knight commander.
That’s why this ceremony was so shocking to Lois.
Easy profit-.
Black smoke billowed behind him, and Bae Hu-ryeong of Royce, formerly known as the King of Mysteries, appeared.
A large man with one face looking kind, but the other looking very angry.
“A great guy came out. “You can’t believe they took Siegfried, the Sword God, like that.”
“I know. I heard that my youngest son was unusual. “I never thought it would be like this.”
“Who told you how to break the jar?”
“How to break a jar?”
“Okay, how to wake up.”
“… “The method of breaking the jar is given by a guardian knight waiting in the training hall before the ceremony begins.”
“Guardian knight?”
“okay. “I will gather all the children and explain the ritual.”
“You mean how to break both of them at the same time?”
Lois shrugged.
“… no. I also didn’t know how to do that. I’ve never even thought about breaking the jar at the same time. “No one has ever done anything like that before.”
“Then is it a coincidence?”
“Do you think it was a coincidence?”
“… Unless it’s a coincidence. “Do you mean instinct?”
“Either by chance or by instinct. “It doesn’t change the fact that he took Geomshin.”
Lois had a meaningful look in her eyes.
“Interesting things will happen soon.”
* * *
The sword Siegfried’s jar was broken.
Verdin’s brothers reacted differently when they heard the news.
The rumor that spread through Valentine’s mouth came to describe Verdin as a monster.
Some people hated him out of jealousy, while others liked him, saying it was a blessing for their family.
If something happy happens to someone, how many people can truly congratulate them?
The answer to this question was very obvious.
It’s hard to hear good things from nine out of ten people. In the end, if you look at the result of this rumor, it was not very good for Verdin.
Verdin’s older brothers, who will be one year older than him, who will be living in the mansion for several years, heard this news.
Chrrrrrr.
I poured all the black tea in the teacup into the flower pot.
The silver spoon prepared for stirring honey, etc., is turning black. The plant that was hit with black tea instantly withered and rotted.
A poison so deadly that if you drank it without thinking, you would have died.
Of course, it wasn’t dangerous because it was something I had experienced before the regression.
‘It’s not much different from before or now.’
Bae Hu-ryeong, the best of the Strange family, Siegfried the Sword God.
Ever since I brought him in, someone has been trying to assassinate him day and night.
Not a single day goes by that he plays with his food or releases snakes or scorpions into his bed.
Should we do this to a child who is only five years old? The answer to the question was very obvious.
‘You have to cut off the buds before they grow.’ I guess that’s what they’re thinking and trying to get rid of me.
To become the owner of this castle.
And the person behind it is right there.
“hey! Verdin!”
A voice that is harsh to the ear.
“Why did you throw away the car my mom made you?”
“That’s right, bro. “I think we need to come to our senses today.”
“oh! Okay, okay, let’s call that sword spirit or something!”
Three brothers, Tony, Johnny, and Ronnie, are called the owners of this castle.
‘Of course, it’s these guys.’
They had mean looks on their faces.
