Only I Am Immune to Magic

Chapter 015. Does being nervous make a difference?

“If you don’t know, why are you taking so little time? Are you kidding me now?”

Zenith glared at Raast with her twin wick on.

She didn’t like this gaudy, parasitic brother-in-law article.

He was bound by a temporary contract with the Count’s family, and was in charge of escorting him for the last mission.

Rhaast looked at her with a crooked attitude, as if it was unfair.

“I tried my best. Even if you don’t know, your wife asked, so shouldn’t you think about it?”

“… … Isn’t Sir Rhaast an Auror user? Don’t you know that Aura users are like that?”

said Janice with a contemptuous expression.

“Uh, mother.”

Surprised by her words, Zeke looked at Raast.

For someone who can’t handle mana to talk about the level of a knight is the worst insult that he has nothing to say even if he gets hit by a sword.

It was unlikely that he would get stabbed because his identity was his identity, but if this incident were known, it wouldn’t just end in a happening.

Rhaast is not a family-bound knight, but a free knight who will leave soon.

“You may not know. I am not a god.”

Contrary to Zeke’s concerns, Rhaast did not get angry.

He had little interest in fame.

His only purpose is money.

The reason why he signed a contract with the count family and escorted Zenith on his last mission was because of money in the end.

“I am not interested in annoying family quarrels. To be honest, I was looking around the mansion when the two young masters shook hands. It was big for a baron’s mansion.”

Rhaast spoke in a light tone as if taking a walk and fiddled with the ornaments on the shelf.

“Even if I sold just one of these things, I would have spent a week messing around. Can I take one?”

“… … put it down Stop this pointless conversation.”

Janice glared at Raast for a moment, then sat down on the sofa with a sigh of relief.

Rhaast licked his lips as if it was a waste and put down the decorations.

“Did you deliver the letter to your husband?”

“yes. I passed it on to the butler when we said hello earlier.”

“It is until today that I turn a blind eye to your rudeness. If you show a light appearance like this tomorrow, I know there will be no soup.”

“Is it possible, ma’am?”

Rhaast saluted with an exaggerated gesture at Zenith’s gentle threat.

“It’s bloody.”

same time. Beyond the window of Janice’s room, a mysterious man wrapped in a black cloth was hanging.

The identity of the assailant is none other than Aron.

Servants and maids frequently roamed the inside of the mansion, so they climbed up the wall from outside the building.

‘Raastra… … . I’ve heard of it a lot.’

When I heard the name Raast, a corner of my head tickled and a vague memory came to mind.

But no matter how much I tried, I couldn’t figure out what those memories were.

It seemed that he hadn’t gathered enough information to trigger a sense of deja vu yet.

‘Eh, I don’t know.’

Aaron, who had only listened to the sound with his ears, took a big heart and looked through the window.

I saw Zenith, who was furious, and Zeke, who was bowing his head with red cheeks, and a silver armored knight standing crookedly next to them.

‘ah! I remembered.’

Seeing Raast wearing a helmet even indoors, the blurry memories finally became clearer.

Rhaast, a dissolute knight who never takes off his helmet under any circumstances and exaggerates money.

In the game, in the middle of the story, it appears as a field boss that has been encroached on by demonic spirits, but seeing that it looks fine, it doesn’t seem to be corrupted yet.

[42]

When I first met him at the entrance of the mansion, I missed it because I was fighting Zeke, but now I see that his level is higher than that of Baron Odd Haken.

At that level, it is usually possible to reach the Intermediate Sword Expert level.

However, I heard from the knight commander that he was a high-level Auror user similar to himself.

‘hmm… … Is it because of the disease?’

Rhaast suffers from a disease related to Magi and cannot grow for a long time.

It is all because of that disease that later turns into a monster.

Since he was a human who would do anything to cure his illness, he could have obtained a useful article if he could solve it.

‘It’s just fine. If you take it with you when you go to Tmolin later… … ?’

Aaron, who continued to observe, hurriedly lowered his head.

It was because Raast’s helmet suddenly went out the window.

‘It’s been too long.’

No matter how much the helmet was used, the senses of the Auror user could not be ignored.

After thinking, Aaron hurriedly came down to the ground and took off the cloth to keep it.

“Oh, aren’t you, Master Aaron?”

Just as I was about to erase the traces and enter the mansion, someone burst out from the entrance.

It was Raast, who had been in Zenith’s room a while ago.

‘Did I get caught?’

Aaron was quite embarrassed, but looked at him without expressing himself.

“Lord Rhaast. why are you coming out here? Sir’s accommodation must be the annex.”

“Oh, the hostess of Oddhaken said she needed a companion. That’s what I was just about to cover. What are you doing without sleeping late at night?”

Raast smiled and pointed his finger to the upper floor where Janice’s room was located.

“I am on my way from a walk in the garden. My head is a bit complicated.”

“Ah, that’s right. I understand.”

Rhaast smiled bitterly at Aaron’s answer.

“Did you say you are seventeen, Bocchan?”

“It is.”

“Well, it’s a bit strange to see the youngster after only watching children all the time.”

“I don’t know what you want to say.”

“There are more than 100 noble families I have seen, but all of them were cans that looked good only on the surface. Even if I imitated the clumsy aristocratic tone, the child was still a child.”

“Am I not a child?”

“hahahaha. Look at this. The answer is different.”

Rhaast grinned.

In fact, the fact that he had such a casual conversation with his subordinate, the knight, was evidence of Aaron’s maturity.

If another noble had been his son, he would have been scolded for being rude to the subject of a knight.

“Bocchan, I like you. So I would like to give you a small hint.”

Raast’s tone, which had been always light, became quite serious.

Aaron’s eyebrows twitched.

“hint?”

“It’s only once, so listen carefully. It’s the middle, the bottom, and the top.”

“… … ?”

Aaron looked at Raast like a madman.

Raast smiled at his eyes and left without saying anything.

“Were you originally like that? I didn’t know it was just a monster in the game.”

Aaron watched Rhaast get away for a while and went inside the mansion.

* * *

“proof?”

After a while, the lord’s office.

The baron’s face distorted as he read the letter the butler gave him.

The letter with the count’s seal read:

[Hello, Baron. Barres. I heard the story from my daughter. You brought a slave from Tmoline?

I’ll tell you straight forward. Prove your qualifications if you’re going to put the lowly bastard and my daughter in the same place. Lord Rhaast will tell you how.]

Jjiik-

After reading the letter, the baron tore it to shreds without the slightest hesitation.

“I, Baron.”

Embarrassed, Derek hurriedly locked the office door.

What the baron just tore up was a handwritten letter from his father-in-law, Count Arnin.

If anyone saw the letter come to this, it would cause trouble.

“I don’t want to look like that, so burn them all. Not a single piece was left behind.”

“yes.”

As if waiting, Derek gathered the scraps of letters from the floor and threw them into the fireplace.

Originally, it was polite to keep a letter from a person with a high position, but there was no problem even if you pretended not to know it after burning it like this.

“I don’t know why wolves are obsessed with bloodlines. I’ve said the successor is Zeke several times, but how… … . Whoa.”

Looking at the burning fragments of the letter, the baron sighed.

He intends to support Aaron unreservedly, but he has no intention of handing over the right to inherit the family.

No matter how much the baron’s blood is mixed, Aaron is a bastard son, and Zeke is a legitimately married son.

If he declared Aaron as the successor, he might have to fight with Count Arnin as well as fight a territory war.

“Did you find out about Rhaast?”

After closing his eyes for a moment and controlling his mind, the baron asked Derek.

Derek nodded as if waiting.

“yes. A free knight from the northwest region of Tmolin, contracted with Count Arnin for one year. I hid my last name so I couldn’t find out where I came from.”

“Northwest side of Tmoline… … Isn’t that the place where demons appeared a few years ago?”

After hearing the explanation, the baron asked in a surprised voice.

The Tmolin area was originally famous for its rough terrain and many monsters, but especially in the Northwest, people were dying every day.

When the demon tribe appeared a few years ago, several families in the area were completely destroyed, and the surviving families were barely surviving with the support of other families.

“you’re right. It seems to be the scion of a family that was destroyed at that time.”

“hmm… … . Then it makes sense for you not to reveal your family name.”

“yes. But that’s not the problem.”

“problem?”

“Lord Rhaast’s contract officially ends today. The contract ends after midnight today.”

“… … I see. It was like that.”

Thinking with his chin resting on his desk, the baron forced himself to grind his teeth.

The contract between Raast and the Count continues until today.

That meant that the count was not responsible for anything he did after today.

“Lord Rhaast is someone who is extremely obsessed with money. I don’t know what orders the Count gave him, but I’ll have to keep an eye on him until he leaves.”

Derek added as the baron seemed to have noticed something.

The baron turned his head and looked out the window.

It was already dark outside.

“… … Call the knight commander.”

“All right.”

Waiting for the baron’s answer, Derek bowed and left the office.

* * *

“wow! Why did so many knights gather? Did you come to see me?”

the next morning.

Rhaast, who came to the gymnasium with Zenith and Zeke, exclaimed.

In the gymnasium, fully armed knights of Odd Haken lined up in a row.

“Right. To be precise, I came here to see your proof.”

Soon, the baron appeared among the knights.

He set his eyes on Zenith, who was following Raast.

“Madam, do you really have to go this far?”

“This is not what I wanted. It’s what the Count wanted.”

“… … Zeke. Do you mean the same?”

“I’m sorry, father.”

Zeke, who was watching Janice, lowered his head with a teary face.

In fact, he had no choice. Because I grew up like that since I was a kid.

The baron’s gaze turned to Rhaast again.

“If something happens to Aaron, he must be held accountable.”

“I’m just doing what I have to do as Count Arnin’s employee. If you want to argue, ask him.”

Rhaast walked to the center of the gymnasium while listening to the baron’s words.

There, Aaron, dressed in leather armor, was warming up while swinging a wooden sword.

“You are late.”

“I have a lot of sleep in the morning. Aren’t you nervous?”

Raast asked with a grin.

“Is there anything different about being nervous?”

Aaron said it insignificantly and lowered his wooden sword.

The reason the Count sent Raast here was to prove Aaron’s qualifications.

Qualification as a nobleman, qualification as a knight. Whatever the reason, it didn’t matter.

The Count’s purpose was to cripple Aaron.

“In case you didn’t know, I’ll say it one more time. You must block or dodge my sword attack three times.”

“I know.”

“great.”

Sureureung!

A sharp forged sword was pulled out from Rhaast’s waist.
