The Count’s Youngest Son Is A Player Chapter 123

Episode 123

What the Count said was not wrong.

Most of the first members of the First Guild were from the Earl of Ashton.

The moment the Count joins the guild, no matter what position he holds, they will inevitably be confused about whose orders should take precedence.

There was a risk that the First Guild itself would degenerate into an organization that belonged to the Count’s family rather than Raoul’s.

“And your father doesn’t want to borrow the power of that ‘system.’ I believe that the path I have been practicing so far is not wrong, and I plan to reach this level entirely through my own efforts. I think it’s a courtesy to my ancestors and teachers who led me to this point. So, Raoul, I will take your suggestion seriously. “I am so grateful for your desire to take care of your father.”

Due to the Count’s words, Raoul could no longer ask to join the guild.

It was the same with my eldest brother. He flatly refused, saying he did not want to interfere with the organization his younger brother had created.

But now things have changed.

The First Guild was completely under Raoul’s control so they didn’t have to worry.

The guild was recruited not only from count families, but also from people with various backgrounds, and after the Gate incident, through various battles and territory reconstruction work, their masters and affiliations were clearly imprinted.

Now, it has become a solid organization that cannot shake Raoul’s status even if someone else joins the guild.

“Anyway, I don’t really want to join Raoul’s personal organization.”

“Don’t think about it too complicated. Now that you are in charge of the count family, you have a lot of things to contact me about. “Can’t you think of it as a means of communication that allows you to conveniently contact people at any time, even if you are far away?”

“That’s true, but…”

Still, he seemed to be worried. Raoul decided to use the conversion card.

“If you sign up and receive God’s blessings, your wonderful and wonderful body can develop into something much more perfect and gorgeous!”

“…! “Is that so?”

Dylan’s upper arms twitched. It was clearly something that crossed my mind.

‘Then let’s throw the last trump card!’

“older brother! By using the system, you can chat with your sister-in-law whenever you want, 24 hours a day! Plus, location tracking is possible, so it will be a huge help in case of an emergency!”

Raoul was sure. A brother who loves his sister-in-law more than anyone else would not miss this perfect opportunity.

“Hey, Raoul?”

But my brother’s expression was very strange. Are your pupils shaking right now?

“What you’re saying is that this is mutual, so for example, your sister-in-law can also use that function…?”

It seemed like the explanation wasn’t enough. Raoul answered with a bright expression.

“Of course! Doesn’t this mean that your sister-in-law can contact you whenever you want? Isn’t it great? After I told my brother, I already wanted my sister-in-law to join the guild…”

“Sleep!”

Dylan hurriedly grabbed both of Raoul’s shoulders tightly and asked with a stiff expression.

“Are you sure you haven’t already told this to your sister-in-law?”

The look in my brother’s eyes was unusual. And this energy emanating from my brother’s body is definitely not alive, right?

Raoul swallowed his saliva and spoke cautiously, feeling pressured for some reason.

“Oh, you haven’t told your sister-in-law yet?”

“Whoa.”

A loud sigh came out of my brother’s mouth, and the stuffy air became comfortable.

‘What is it? ‘What did I do wrong?’

While Raoul was looking puzzled, Dylan spoke with a tired face that seemed to have added a wrinkle.

“You’re the youngest.”

“Yes, brother.”

“My brother will take on the role of advisor or whatever you want, so let’s promise one thing.”

‘It worked as expected!’

Raoul smiled inwardly and answered.

“Yes, tell me anything!”

“Keep it a secret from your sister-in-law. No, I wish you wouldn’t talk about this at all.”

“yes?”

‘why? why? for what reason?’

When Raoul looked puzzled, Dylan smiled and said.

“Wouldn’t it be better for me to talk about this in person? And as you know, my sister-in-law is someone who doesn’t know much about rejection. If you tell me, I might be forced to join even though it’s actually inconvenient, right? You wouldn’t want that either, would you? Besides…”

Although he wondered if his older brother was always this talkative, Raoul realized that his thoughts were short-lived.

“What you said is correct, brother. I was short-thinking. After all, it would be more romantic for the older brother to tell his sister-in-law in person, right? “I will keep my mouth shut.”

At the same time, Raoul grinned and winked.

“That’s right. thanks.”

For the first time in his life, Dylan felt like punching his youngest brother.

‘okay. You’re still young so you don’t know much. It will happen.’

Raoul, who was born alone and over 50 years old before and after the war, was too pure to know that you must protect what you protect even when you are in love.

Anyway, Raoul accepted Dylan as an advisor to the First Guild, as he had wanted.

If he could soon find a fighting skill that matched his brother’s physical strength, another monster might be born in the Ashton family.

As an aside, about a month later. Raoul was able to confirm that his sister-in-law’s name was on the First Guild’s list.

‘I’m glad. ‘When I returned to my family this time, I tried to force myself to join.’

At a time when the dark hand targeting the count family was slowly revealing its true colors, joining the guild was essential for the sister-in-law’s safety.

Thanks to this, Raoul was able to relax for an hour, and someone who would have been struck by lightning if the timing had been a little late was also able to escape from danger.

The Academy Entrance Exam ‘Controversy’ was already approaching its 6th day.

The 64 players who went through the preliminary round and advanced to the finals played two tournaments, and the round of 16 was finally held today.

“Hello, viewers. This is Jinhwan Park, the caster in charge of broadcasting the round of 16 of Struggle. Today we have invited two commentators, Jaehyun Lee and Sangsu Kang. hello!”

“hello.”

Connect Co., Ltd. opened its own Internet broadcasting station to broadcast various Connect events in the future.

As broadcasting rights have been sold, live broadcasts are being made on various channels, but as it is Connect’s own broadcast, it is the channel watched by the most people because it provides more detailed and systematic information.

Among them, they were in charge of the Korean channel.

“As of yesterday, all finalists for the round of 16 were confirmed. “Many people would have expected the Korean players to perform well, so we will summarize the status of the semifinalists by country.”

[Advancers to the round of 16]

4 people from China – Lee Jin-cheong, Jin Mu-yang, Wang Cheon-myeong, Jo Ga-seong,

3 people from Korea – Do-hyun Bae, Il-woo Kim, Seo-hyun Han,

2 people from the US – Brent Blake

Japan – Shigeru Morikawa

Great Britain – Byron

France – Pearson

…

“As expected, the most China, which produced four players who advanced to the round of 64, selected four players…”

The broadcast crew briefly introduced the players from each country and then moved on to the Korean players.

“Korea has secured three finalists. This guarantees 90 drawing tickets each time for the next three months. This is very good news, but now all that remains is who will be crowned the winner. Who do you two commentators predict will win?”

“It’s Bae Do-hyeon.”

“Isn’t Bae Do-hyun a player?”

As expected, there seemed to be no room for disagreement. Bae Do-hyun, who showed overwhelming skills in the preliminaries, defeated his opponent with merciless strength in the round of 64 and round of 32.

“Haha, I think so too. Now, let’s talk about other players. “How do you expect Kim Il-woo and Han Seo-hyun to perform?”

“In the case of Kim Il-woo, he has solid fundamentals and has the advantage of linking skills and characteristics. “I think we can easily advance to the quarterfinals.”

“I agree. Depending on the matchup, I think it might be possible to advance to the semifinals. However, in the case of Han Seo-hyun, I think this round of 16 will probably be a critical moment. So far, we have taken advantage of the combination of phantom beast and bow, but the problem is that both are at an awkward level. “Wouldn’t it be difficult to show off your skills against a player who advanced to the round of 16?”

Commentators carefully predicted the potential of Korean players through various sources.

‘It’s a sharper analysis than I thought, isn’t it?’

Bae Do-hyun, who was watching the broadcast for a moment before the round of 16, smiled slightly as he remembered Kim Il-woo and Han Seo-hyun.

It was Bae Do-hyun who originally drew up the bracket for this tournament.

Although the matchup was organized fairly according to the results of the preliminary round, selfishness could not help but be involved.

Kim Il-woo had the skills to pass the round of 16 no matter where he was placed, but Han Seo-hyun honestly did not have the skills to make it to the round of 16.

However, due to the nature of the phantom beast summoner, he had enough talent to become a star, and based on the judgment that he could be of help to Bae Do-hyun, the matchup was organized slightly to his advantage.

‘From here on, we’ll have to leave it to each person’s ability.’

Bae Do-hyun was the winner anyway, so I wasn’t really interested in the rest of the results.

And since the few people I wanted to take care of were dusted off in the round of 64 and round of 32, I was planning to proceed by giving my opponents a reasonable boost in future matches.

‘Because these are talented people who can be recruited to the First Guild later.’

We have clearly impressed people with our overwhelming skills, so now we need to gain some favor from players.

That’s how the round of 16 began.

Bae Do-hyun’s opponent was American player Blake.

“Ohh Blake! As an expert in various martial arts and martial arts, he is pushing Bae Do-hyun with great coordination and flashy body movements!”

“and! He jumps over 2 meters and performs a mid-air spinning kick. After all, it’s a scene you can’t see unless you connect, right?”

“And if Bae Do-hyun didn’t accept it, it would be a difficult performance to show in a match like this. Bae Do-hyeon has advanced to the round of 16 and is calmly accepting his opponent’s techniques with a much more relaxed attitude.”

A splendid and exciting sparring continued, to the point where the broadcasters repeatedly exclaimed in exclamation.

Blake must have understood Bae Do-hyun’s intentions and was freely unleashing all the skills and techniques he could show without hesitation.

And Bae Do-hyun, in line with Blake, a martial artist, entered the fight without a weapon.

He adjusted his strength to a level that Blake could handle and combined it with large movements.

thud.

In the end, a spectacular triple aerial kick hit Blake’s chin and he fell, unable to control himself and admitting defeat.

“Bae Do-hyun wins!”

After the referee’s decision was made and cheers erupted from the audience, Bae Do-hyun held out his hand and helped Blake up.

“It was a good game.”

“I really learned a lot. After all, I can’t be defeated by Bae Do-hyun.”

Blake’s expression looked very bright after shaking hands.

To be honest, when Bae Do-hyun was selected as the opponent, Blake was in a state of despair.
