The Academy’s Genius Magic Swordsman

chapter 6



Baron Avier Ormund was a mercenary nobleman in the past.

Although he had some things in common with his father in that he was a commoner and then became an aristocrat.

The moment anyone grasped the true nature of Baron Ormund, they would be able to confirm that he was a completely different group of people than his father.

Avier Ormund.

The former name he was called as a member of the mercenary corps was Vier the Dark.

Always with a gloomy expression, as if plotting an evil scheme in his head.

It was a nickname that came about because there were several people who saw him giggling alone without telling him why.

Of course, it only looked like that on the outside, but it wasn’t that there was a problem in the mercenary life itself.

No one figured out the reality of the person named Vierra until he participated in the war in the Kingdom of Rongrias.

Golden Song, a mercenary group led by platinum-level adventurer Cael Toben.

The entire mercenary corps expressed their intention to participate in the war in the Kingdom of Rongrias.

Vier the Grim also, of course, got involved in a war that killed and killed real people.

And the gloomy Vier, who was considered to be leaving the mercenary without any noticeable results.

In the war with Rongrias, he came back after killing an enemy general.

For that feat alone, he was promised the title of baron after the war.

The problem was that the achievements he made were not worthy of many awards.

First of all, to quote the evaluation of his father, who had personally met the dark Vier on the battlefield in the past.

The physical ability itself wasn’t bad, but all attacks were overly simplistic.

Above all, you have said that you are not a person who is not a vessel to stand upright in front of a dead opponent general.

Of course, the time when Bier achieved his achievements was quite a while after the time he met his father.

In the meantime, the mindset has changed and there is no possibility that I have grown.

If you think of your father who still had a puzzled look on your face, you probably didn’t understand either.

It is impossible for a person to change dramatically in a short period of time.

My father, who had met numerous human groups on the battlefield, would have known better.

Even the opposing general known to have been killed by Vier was strong enough to have a record of a draw with his father, a war hero.

Perhaps even as a father, it hurts his pride that the opponent he felt he was on a par with was killed by Bier.

Rather, the leader of the mercenary corps that Bier belonged to.

He also commented that if it was Cael Toven, he might have been able to fight with a straight line.

Perhaps even in his father’s mind, he was aware of the reality of his achievements.

Dozens of cuts from longswords were left on the body of the dead enemy general, as if to show off.

In fact, the wound that pierced the heart and supposedly took his life was a penetrating wound from the rapier used by Cael Toben.

In the bodies of several mercenaries, including Cael Toben, who were killed in the same battle, traces of cuts from the longsword used by Vier were found.

Most of the wounds had a similar shape, as if they were attacked from the rear.

Above all, to the point that Vier was the only person who returned alive from the battlefield where so many people clashed.

Since there was only one survivor, all battles and evaluations were made only with the testimony of that one person.

No one could dispute Bier’s claim that he had killed the enemy general who had killed all his other comrades.

If he didn’t praise his achievements, it would be an act that would lower the morale of other mercenaries and soldiers.

In the end, the imperial family promised him a reward by lowering the status of baron after the war.

As soon as he did, Bier, as if he had obtained everything he could get from this war, immediately made use of his injury as an excuse to go back home and endured only the end of the war.

In the meantime, the war with the Kingdom of Longrias ended quickly thanks to the achievements of his father, who was a centurion, and his mother, a battle mage.

That was the true identity of the man named Avier Ormund, who currently occupies Baron Ormund.

I wonder if the reason why I put ‘A’ in front of the name is that the longer the name, the more aristocratic it is.

Of course, even if a mere trash traitor obtained the estate and mansion, there was no way he could make good use of it.

In the end, what he did by accepting aristocratic status was kidnapping merchants and passersby passing by his territory and selling them as slaves.

The fact that the bandits set up a base in the mountain behind the Ormund Mansion was also a process that occurred for that reason.

Otherwise, there would be no aristocrat who would stand by while the bandits set up camp in their backyard.

If you knew but didn’t take action, it’s evil.

If they didn’t even know that bandits were stationed, they would be incompetent.

In the first place, their master Avier, Ormund, was evil and incompetent as a nobleman.

I could confirm that the eyes of the high school lady who heard my explanation darkened.

“The reason why they were attacked even though they had parked a wagon near the mansion that they thought was safe was because it wasn’t a safe place from the start.”

The woman who grasped the true nature of Baron Ormund muttered with a serious expression.

“I should have been a little more careful. My poor judgment took the lives of the escorts, and I almost couldn’t have been safe.”

“It’s not easy to come up with the idea that there are criminals bold enough to kidnap near an aristocratic mansion.

For now, you can be content that your life has been saved and you can put the responsibility aside for a while.”

“Yes. Now, even if you saved a life, you should cherish it.”

Anyway, it was good for me that I deliberately lured them out last night and even dealt with the bandits’ lair.

If they were left alone, they would have gradually grown in size and become an organization equivalent to Ormund’s enlisted soldiers.

If a group of low-quality humans were near the Perdalos territory, they would only be a hindrance anyway.

Especially since Baron Ormund is blocking the path to High Garden, the closest road to the ecliptic.

If you don’t take care of it in advance, you will be hurt in an unexpected place, just like in your previous life.

Not to mention the bandits who run the human trafficking business with Avier’s support.

Even the family of Baron Avier Ormund itself.

⁎ ⁎ ⁎

Most of the typical baronial families are under the protection of marques or dukes.

Of course, the Baron Ormund family also had subordinate families.

Highgarden Marshal defending the eastern end of the Empire’s borders.

One of the many baron families under that family was the newly born Baron Ormund.

There was a reason why they hurriedly moved to the Marquis of High Garden before dawn.

Before Baron Ormund noticed that his private organization had been destroyed and began to take care of himself.

Because I needed to make the Highgarden family’s Marquis Pracio Highgarden on my side.

First of all, the Ormund family nominally belonged to the Highgarden family, so if I touched it myself, there would be a serious problem.

Above all, there was no way that the Viscount Perdalos family, a halfway aristocrat, could judge the crimes committed by the Ormund family.

Confucius, a noble but half-way position.

Although a commoner, she is a lady from a high society who has her own status.

Despite the sudden visit to a strange combination, the Marquis Pracio allowed me and her to visit.

After waiting for about an hour, the servant of the Marquis appeared in the waiting room with him.

“Sorry to have kept you waiting. Prince Viscount Perdalos. And the lady of Wintemire Corporation.”

At the same time as he entered the middle age, which seemed to be at least ten years older than his father.

The lady of the upper house and I got up at the same time and paid our respects to the Marquis.

“I really thank you from the bottom of my heart for responding to my sudden visit.”

“Meet the Marquis of Highgarden.”

“It’s okay to say hello. Just explain what you are visiting for.”

“All right.”

Perhaps we visited while we were really busy, but the Highgarden Marshal showed off his busyness and asked why we called.

I also didn’t want to spend too much time, so I summarized what happened in Baron Ormund’s estate.

Robberies, murders and kidnappings were rampant in the bandit encampment behind Baron Ormund’s mansion.

Even though it was a fairly large organization, Baron Ormund did not take any special action.

Judging from the circumstances, Baron Ormund is one of those incompetent people who are making money through crime by colluding with bandits, or who do not know that a crime is occurring in his backyard.

In addition, records of dirty words allegedly traded with Baron Ormund were found at the camp of bandits.

The margrave’s eyes, which seemed to be of little use, widened as the story grew longer.

After accepting the record of dirty words for the last time, I felt that the eyes looking at me changed.

“… Did you say you found this at the bandit camp in Ormund Manor?”

“Yes, it is.”

“As the first daughter of the CEO of Wintemire, I can testify that he is not wrong.”

“Hmm, ha… .”

The Marquis, who alternately looked at the contents of the document and my face, sighed deeply several times.

He made eye contact with me and quietly opened his mouth.

“Has anyone else read about this other than you?”

“All the bandits living in the garrison have been kept in eternal silence, so I think there will be none except for the person on the side of Baron Ormund.”

“… What do you want?”

“Yeah?”

“Seeing that you brought me this document, which could be my weakness, it’s probably because I want something.

I asked how many gold coins I would like to receive by handing over these documents.”

He probably thinks I’ve come to sell him information for money.

Although the misunderstanding that seemed to see me as a snob was not very welcome.

In any case, it would have been enough if the seriousness of this incident had been conveyed to the Marquis.

“There is only one thing I want from the Marquis.”

“Tell me.”

“Withdraw the position of Baron Avier Ormund, who currently controls the Baron Ormund. to make him pay for the sins he has committed.

That alone is all I want, and I don’t want anything else.”

“… … .”

I didn’t expect these words to come out of my mouth.

The Marquess of High Garden across from me, as well as the lady of the store, showed me surprised eyes.

“Really, is that all?”

“Because Baron Ormund is located between the Perdalos Territory and the High Garden Territory. Most guests visiting Viscount Perdalos must pass through Baron Ormund’s estate.

As the Confucius of Viscount Perdalos, this is just a very reasonable and natural reason for not wanting to have a disturbing neighbor around.”

“… Yes, I got it.”

The Marquis, who understood my words, got up from his seat with the papers,

He nodded slightly and thanked me.

“Thank you for giving me such an agenda that could at least be the reason for my mistake. As for Avier, we will act quickly as you said.

Of course, that alone won’t be enough to reward you, so I’ll pay off this debt when another opportunity arises later.”

Thanks to the reliable words that came out of his mouth, I thought that the troublesome work was finally finished.

“Thank you, Highgarden Marshal.”

I smiled quietly in my heart, imagining a future that was a little different compared to my previous life.
