Master (1)

“What? The third prince has no mana hole?”

next day. When Count Liechtenauer’s report came, the State Council was in an uproar.

“What did I say? Don’t you think it’s too early to give such a large award to His Majesty the Crown Prince? Ah, it looks like only one precious Dragon Heart flew away”

“Isn’t that something that His Highness the Crown Prince also agreed to? And isn’t it just one small piece anyway?”

“Do you know how much one piece costs?”

“Hmph! Even so, it wouldn’t be even 1/100th of the construction cost that the Ministry of Finance incurred to connect the canal from the Spirit Lake to the capital, right?”

“What? Did you say everything?”

As the Minister of the Executive Branch, the Minister of Finance, and the Minister of Military Affairs fought and fought, their subordinates also criticized each other and fought, causing the Prime Minister, who was the host of the Cabinet meeting, to have a dizzying headache.

In particular, the Minister of Finance, the second crown prince, fiercely attacked the administration and the military department, and there were even calls that the crown prince should now be held accountable.

Bang bang bang!!

“Be quiet!! What kind of disgrace are you talking about right now in front of Your Majesty?”

In the end, only after the Prime Minister slammed down on the podium and forced them to be quiet, did the royal palace become quiet, and the Emperor opened his mouth.

“Count Liechtenauer. So what happened to the Third Prince now?”

“There is no major problem with my body, and I am currently asleep and resting. Since Dragon Heart’s huge mana could not be stored separately, it is thought that the mana will be drained slowly by sleeping for a few days”

“Dragon Heart may be a waste, but I am glad that the Third Prince is safe. When it comes to investing, failure always follows. Sirs, please don’t argue about this issue anymore”

Count Dietrich, the head of the Emperor Lee faction and the Minister of Finance, who had been responding to the strict orders of the emperor with absolute power, kept silent.

After Yuno’s matter was concluded by order of the emperor, various other discussions took place in the conference hall. Then the emperor left political affairs to the chancellor and ministers and headed to Juno’s palace with Count Liechtenauer.

“Your Majesty the Emperor! How did we get to this point…”

Then, Yuria, who was sitting on the bed and wiping Yuno’s forehead with a wet towel, stood up and greeted the emperor, and Isabella, Marie, and Eliza, who were looking at Yuno with pitiful eyes, also knelt down to show respect to the emperor.

“Hehe. Everyone, wake up. hmm? Even Princess Eliza came. They say she’s been friendly with Yuno these days… well, the empress. How is Yuno’s condition?”

“It seemed like I slept well last night, but I haven’t woken up yet”

“Hmm… Meaning! What is your judgment?”

When the emperor looked for the royal doctor, the royal doctor who was preparing medicine in a corner hurriedly ran over and prostrated himself.

“Yes. your majesty. As Empress Mama said, I believe there will be nothing to do outside. However… His Majesty Yuno is not without a mana hole.”

“What? Count Liechtenauer! What happened? Didn’t you say earlier that Yuno doesn’t have a mana hole?”

“Ah… No, I checked all the parts yesterday… What the heck!! Where on earth is the mana hole?”

When the Emperor and the Commander of the Guards glared at him fiercely at the same time, the Emperor was so embarrassed that he lowered his head and broke into a cold sweat.

“I am honored to hear from you…”

“Haona!! What?”

“Well… His Highness Yuno had a mana hole located in his testicles… Moreover, thanks to his good constitution, it seems like all the mana from the Dragon Heart he consumed yesterday was absorbed there…”

As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Count Liechtenauer put his hand on Juno’s stomach and injected mana into it, causing the mana to flow downward, unlike yesterday.

Then at that moment. Count Liechtenauer was thrown backwards with a tremendous rebound force from Juno’s testicles.

Kwaang!!

“Keueuuu!! This…is this?”

“Count!! What happened? What happened?!”

“Yuno… is Yuno okay?”

Surprised by the commotion, the Emperor and Yuria ran to Liechtenauer and asked him questions, but Liechtenauer was embarrassed and could not answer anything.

‘Wait… What about that mana just now… I said I was confused, but I can’t believe I, the master, was able to bounce my mana like this…’

However, as the Emperor and Empress continued to press him, he soon came to his senses and explained the situation.

“It seems that the prince has absorbed 100% of the dragon heart… The mana stones and herbs that are consumed at the beginning of the practice enter the body and most of the mana is blown away, stimulating the mana hole and helping to use mana. Only a small amount is absorbed, and only a small portion is absorbed. But… the prince…”

“Well… won’t it be a big problem then?”

“Ah! Now that I think about it, the gift the crown prince gave Yuno was dragon heart solution, so I gave it to Yuno, who was unconscious, thinking it would be helpful, so I gave it to Yuno while she was unconscious, and maybe it was…”

Lichtenauer ended up yelling at Yuria’s confession.

“Mama Empress!!! How can you do something like that without even discussing it with me!! No matter how much it is called a fragment or solution, if all the mana contained in it has been absorbed…”

The Emperor and Yuria were now tense, looking only at Liechtenauer’s lips.

However, Liechtenauer did not even look at the two, but stood up and approached Yuno again, carefully inserting a very small amount of mana.

As Lichtenauer’s mana approached, Yuno’s mana hole reacted rapidly again and began to fluctuate. However, unlike before, because Lichtenauer used mana very carefully, there was no significant repulsive force, and by circling the mana hall, Lichtenauer was able to roughly understand Yuno’s current state and the amount of mana he had.

“Huuu~~ I figured it out roughly. As Eui said, it looks like he will be able to wake up without any major problems in a few days. Since the amount of mana is so large, it will take quite some time for the mana hole to stabilize, so I don’t think it will be a big problem”

Only then did the Emperor and Empress sigh in relief and relax.

“But how big is Yuno’s mana amount that causes you to bounce like that? Aren’t you by name the strongest master in the empire?”

“That’s a lie, but… I became the number one knight of the empire through swordsmanship, and my mana amount isn’t that great. Of course, it is master level, but…”

Liechtenauer smiled bitterly and continued speaking.

“But the problem is teaching Prince Yuno. If the mana hole is not in the normal position, it is not easy to handle mana with the standard sword techniques of our imperial army or the sword techniques of the knights… If it is in the abdomen, there is room… But it is such an embarrassing part… ”

Both the Emperor and Empress were deep in thought at his words.

“Then wouldn’t Yuno really need to learn swordsmanship? Of course, that child has a desire to become strong… but the royal family just needs to know how to protect themselves, so I don’t think there is a need to become that strong”

“What do you mean? empress! Yuno will become the guardian of our imperial family! This is the body that will become the empire’s best warrior and the sword that will protect the empire! I can’t even say it’s that child’s child. If you look at Yuno’s size, you can get the answer right? Moreover, looking at his academic performance… well, the empress would know better”

The emperor had already received a report on Yuno’s academic performance and hit Yuria right on the mark. Yuria could not say anything at the emperor’s words, and the silence continued.

“Now that I think about it, weren’t there some among the Empire’s masters whose mana holes were located in abnormal places? When Yuno wakes up, how about entrusting him with guidance?”

Count Liechtenauer’s expression was completely distorted by the emperor’s words that broke the silence.

“Your Majesty! He is!!”

“Oh, of course… I know that the relationship between him and the Count is not very good. I also don’t like him for abandoning his duties as a citizen of the empire and acting as he pleases. But shouldn’t there be someone to guide Yuno?”

“That’s right…but…”

“Then let’s do it. Aren’t we going to have to break even anyway? If you do well, you might teach Yuno before joining the imperial army, right?”

“I will follow your orders. Your Majesty”

“Good! Then, please inquire about him and come find him. If possible, I hope to bring Yuno to the imperial palace before she opens her eyes”

The emperor made that decision, stroked Yuno’s forehead once, patted her shoulder to cheer her up, and went out.

After the emperor left, Liechtenauer looked at the sleeping Juno and gathered his thoughts once again.

‘It’s a pity that I won’t be able to teach this greatest talent in history… Perhaps his free-spirited martial arts might suit His Highness Yuno better than the standardized swordsmanship of the knights… But will His Highness the Prince be able to handle it… The temper of a crazy person…?’

Count Liechtenauer, who was looking at Juno sleeping peacefully without knowing anything, stood up to bring in his rival, who was the strongest fist master in the empire, and indeed the world, and a master of back alley fighting.

Yuria and the princesses came back to Yuno and began to nurse her sick when the emperor and the commander of the guards were away.

The servants and maids urged her to rest, saying they would take charge, but Yuria, Isabella, Marie, and Eliza did not leave their seats even for a moment and stayed until Yuno woke up. A week later, when Yuno woke up, she burst into tears in his arms.

“Uuuu…Mom? What happened to me…”

“Hehehehehe Yuno, are you out of your mind?”

“Yuno~~”

“Oppa~”

Yuno, who woke up from fainting after a week, was surrounded by women who were hugging her and couldn’t come to her senses. And that moment.

Quaaa!!

Yuno’s door broke, revealing the image of a woman.
