How To Survive as a Crazy Prince

“I don’t know what you mean.”

Eugene frowned and said.

“I will fight with you bare-chested. Just pure swordsmanship.”

I raised my sword and aimed it at Eugene.

“Did I ask for that?”

“Didn’t I tell you earlier? I don’t like it.”

I sighed as I didn’t seem to understand.

“Whatever you think, it’s none of my business. I do this because I want to do it.”

I smiled at Yujin, who was staring at me, and said,

“Because I want to completely crush you on equal terms. Without relying on magical power.”

“… … .”

This was both a provocation to Eugene and a declaration to the emperor.

It was a denial of the blood and the magical power going to the emperor who was watching this battle somewhere.

‘If I lose like this, I’ll be inexhaustibly pathetic.’

Of course, I have no intention of losing.

“… … okay. Do whatever you feel like. I don’t see you.”

Eugene muttered annoyedly, then quickly closed the distance and swung his sword.

‘That’s fast!’

To me, who didn’t use a boost, Eugene’s black stomach felt fast. Rather than calmly grasping the trajectory and moving, I could only evade based on intuition.

But my body was accustomed to the constant fighting. In my intuition, I continued the optimal movement with a pleasant rhythm that I never had before.

“Whoa, whoa! It’s not that scary!”

I continued to rely on my intuition and avoid Eugene’s sword. I was able to avoid it narrowly, but I couldn’t see the timing for a counterattack. Barely avoiding it was the limit.

But I didn’t feel like I was being pushed.

‘I see, this is how the body moves before thinking!’

To be honest, it was fun.

Every time I narrowly avoid Eugene’s sword, my heart beats like it’s going to explode. It was the feeling when a game that was played on an easy difficulty suddenly became difficult.

“… … Chit.”

Eugene, who continued to attack, widened the distance and adjusted his breathing.

It seemed to be an action based on the judgment that if he pushed further than this, he might show a gap. The hit and run distance is good. It must have been a learned move between Mustafa and numerous sparring.

“You did well to bring Mustafa. I never thought I would have raised such a monster.

Eugene became much stronger in a different direction than expected. Compared to Eugene at this point in the original work, he must be several times stronger. I feel joy and anxiety at the same time.

“I’m thinking thank you.”

Eugene replied briefly. Then he took a strangely low posture with his sword hanging down.

‘That’s it… … !’

It was the swordsmanship of Iris, the younger sister of Corps Commander Alexei.

Just as he did, Eugene closed the distance in an instant like a gust of wind, and raised his sword while looking up at me from below.

I couldn’t read Eugene’s movements because I couldn’t calm down the agitation of the moment.

f*ck!

Eugene’s sword hit the wrist holding my sword. An intense pain like being cut ran through my body.

“… … one.”

But I didn’t miss the sword. As if he thought it was over, Yujin’s eyes, which had stopped moving, were agitated.

“Did you think I would collapse with one hit?”

I said as I pushed Eugene’s sword with my wrist. The sword was still firmly held in my hand.

Booung! Caang! Each Kaga… … !

“… … !”

I twisted my wrist, shook off Eugene’s sword, and slammed it down, and Eugene hurriedly defended himself. The blunt blade rubbed violently and sparks flew.

Kagagagak, Kang! Kaga gag gag gag… … Chaeeng!

In the interval where it was difficult to swing each other’s swords properly, several fine battles continued, and the distance widened again by shaking off each other’s swords.

“… … Like a monster.”

Eugene said with a face of genuine astonishment. It was a violent blow aimed at breaking bones and dropping the sword. However, my wrist was slightly red and was moving normally.

“Even if it looks like this, I am confident in my ability.”

I’ve done dozens or hundreds of boosts so far. In the process, my bones and muscles, which have repeatedly been torn, healed, and torn by violent movements, are no longer those of an ordinary human. It was the result of repeating injuries and recovering too quickly.

“It’s okay. Keep running.”

I am an iron man

Around that time, theater.

The fight between the crown prince and Eugene was in full swing on the huge screen.

“… … .”

“… … gulp.”

From noble mtl dot com

The professors who were watching the scene were all speechless.

‘Eh, you’re not using your magic… … !’

Because I didn’t know how to accept this fact.

On a good note, it was to fight on equal terms with Eugene, who was not yet accustomed to the use of magic, and on a bad note, it was a wicked act of denying the emperor’s blood and magic.

That’s why everyone couldn’t easily say anything in this situation.

‘What the hell is that movement.’

Of course, that wasn’t the only reason. It was because the movements of Eugene and the crown prince were unusual.

Eugene’s bizarre yet ferocious movements never seen before, and the monstrous prince who responds without being pushed back, even with powerful attacks, without losing sight of his sword.

Neither side was ever normal.

“… … hot.”

When everyone didn’t know what to say, there was someone who laughed.

“Heh. Ha ha ha ha ha. Kkeuk… … .”

was the emperor The professors, the principal, and even the corps commander, who turned around in surprise at the sound, completely stiffened.

he was laughing He covered his mouth and shrugged. Then, as if he couldn’t stand it in the end, he said ahahahahaha and laughed coolly.

“You are finally at the starting point, son.”

Even applauding, the emperor was delighted like a child.

* * *

The fight with Eugene continued.

Embarrassingly, I allowed a few more attacks after that. Of course, there were no fatal blows. It just annoyed me that I couldn’t hit.

“… … Awesome.”

Eugene, who opened the distance again, said while wiping his sweat. He appeared to be quite tired from the intense fight that ensued.

“Are you being sarcastic to say that you’re amazing even though you didn’t allow one?”

I was annoyed because I didn’t know my intentions. Eugene shook his head, saying he was not being sarcastic.

“A normal human is incapacitated when the first attack succeeds. Even with a wooden sword worse than this sword, it was all the same. So far, no one has held out.”

“Is it so? Well, that would be normal.”

“I don’t understand how they stand still after allowing several such attacks. So he said it was great.”

“Thank you so much for your kind explanation. After all, it’s amazing because you’re strong.”

I don’t know if it’s the first time, but I’m not very happy at the current point where I’ve been attacked. I don’t hate it.

“Is that the power of the emperor’s blood?”

However, he became very displeased with Eugene’s useless family members.

“… … Emperor’s blood? Do not be ridiculous.”

At my words, which did not hide my displeasure, Eugene became wary again.

“This is my effort!”

I shouted. And took a deep breath.

“This! I’m alone! very! It is the result of hard work!”

Then, word by word, she shouted again.

A strange stillness lingered.

Eugene was quite taken aback, as if he hadn’t expected to react this far.

“The emperor’s blood? That’s funny. The only thing I inherited from my damn father is the power of lightning strikes.”

The emperor’s monstrous fighting sense, and the ability to freely manipulate mana, I——Mikhail didn’t have.

The only abilities that Mikhail possessed were swordsmanship, which remained at B rank even though he gave extra points for various reasons, and magic that he was forced to rank A after checking the maximum power even though he couldn’t actually handle it well.

“Until a while ago, it was easy to burn my arms because I couldn’t adjust the output properly.”

It was the same when I used it on Katyusha immediately after possessing it. The moment I made a slight mistake in output, the overloaded lightning strike burned my skin, muscles, and nerves. It was painful enough to die.

“Because he didn’t tell me a word about how to handle the magical power of lightning strikes.”

What I was able to manage properly was my knowledge of the magical power of the original work and the opening of my body using the sensory blocking bathtub.

“I am the one who was confined, given only powers that I could not handle properly.”

A foolish prince who was completely out of the power structure, with only one attendant to rely on, who was destroyed after seeing his father kill his mother and was confined to a villa. That was Mikhail.

“If you think that you are hard work and I am talent, then I will tell you the opposite.”

Compared to Eugene, who was made into a protagonist and excelled in swordsmanship and lived a wealthy life as the son of a pharmacist, Mikhail’s environment can only be said to be hopeless.

“Compared to me, you have talent that feels unfair.”

It’s only natural that the character was designed that way in the first place. It is different from birth than Mikhail, who did not even become a proper mid-boss until the end.

“There is no such thing. I just work hard… … .”

“’I just worked hard’? Being able to become what you are now by just working hard is called talent.”

I made an affirmation to Eugene, who seemed to be in a bad mood and tried to deny it.

“Have you ever realized that you are not good enough? Have you ever had your body not follow you no matter what? there won’t be Because you are the guy who can achieve anything you try.”

Eugene couldn’t deny my words. probably because it’s true Even though her appearance was crooked, Eugene’s talent did not change. No, rather, it was more blooming than the original.

“If you lose to me like that, that’s… … .”

The fact that Eugene, who exists in this reality as the main character, loses to me,

“It must have been a lack of effort.”

It can only be explained by the difference in effort.

“… … !”

Eugene’s expression hardened at my provocation.

Eugene tried to refute my words, but didn’t say anything as if he couldn’t think of the right words.

“Noisy… … . Noisy! Do you intend to fight with your mouth!”

A sword filled with anger from Eugene, who gave up on verbally responding, flew. I twisted my body slightly and easily dodged. The ensuing sword attack was also skillfully evaded by stepping on it like a dance.

“You about me! What do you know!!”

‘I’ve lost my composure. I didn’t specifically induce this.’

Even I, who didn’t use Eugene’s black boost, could clearly see the trajectory. It must be that he is failing to control his power due to his anger.

‘If this happened, then… … .’

Tuong!

“… … ?!”

I grabbed the blunt blade of Eugene’s sword just before it lost strength with my bare hands. Before accelerating, the sword was immobilized and unable to move.

“Eugene, I will ask you one question.”

I brought my face closer to Eugene, who desperately tried to draw the sword.

“Why did you compete at the Colosseum?”

It’s time for mental education.
