The Bastard’s Way of Life of the Returning Swordsman

Episode 11

Gyolonghoe (1)

“Oh, then will we finally meet the enigmatic figure Wellington has so salivatingly admired?”

“What is a childishly enigmatic figure, an enigmatic figure? What culprit are you looking for?”

“Yeah, even though I’ve been begging you to tell me who you are, you’re hiding it.”

Wellington smiled bitterly at the bruises from his long-time friends.

In fact, I understand what my friends say.

For the past three months, far from hanging out with my friends, I’ve been stuck almost exclusively to the 4th gymnasium.

Even group meetings and blind dates, which Wellington liked so much, were often rejected.

So, my friends… … Among the members of the ‘Gyoryonghoe’, ‘Who the hell is the friend who seduced Narcio Sogaju?’ was the biggest topic.

But in the meantime, Wellington never mentioned Theo.

‘Because these friends still have strong prejudice against Prince Theo.’

Even if rumors were circulating that Theo had recently begun to change, it was something that was talked about only among low-level prosecutors.

It was not even a trivial interest to those who were already in the ruling class, such as the Gyoryonghoe.

‘So, through this meeting, we are going to be able to shed the images that have accumulated over the years.’

Wellington thought that Theo would be able to get along well with them.

He was not the first to admit defeat for nothing.

No, even if it isn’t.

Theo he watched from the side was different from the others.

patience.

effort.

craving.

Talent.

Because he was a man who had everything.

‘There’s even leadership there. There are also personalities. I’m not the kind of person who will end up as a bastard.’

In fact, Wellington first approached Theo because he was bored.

But now, he is completely influenced by Theo.

However, if there is one problem.

‘friend… … I don’t know if it’s cognition yet.’

Strangely, Theo kept a certain distance from Wellington and the rest of the world.

So Wellington even more wanted to invite Theo to the Gyoryonghoe.

I wondered if Theo would open his heart to some extent if he showed his true intentions.

‘It’s not unrequited love, and I don’t know what I’m doing.’

That would mean that Theo is an attractive person.

“Everyone, don’t rush Well like that. You’ll get to know him soon anyway, so why are you in such a hurry?”

At that time, the atmosphere suddenly changed when the man who had been listening to the conversation of his friends on one side suddenly spoke out of nowhere.

“That, right… … ?”

“but. Well praised him, so he must be someone who deserves to hang out with us.”

“I wonder which family you inherited blood from. It would be nice if it was someone on our side.”

“Isn’t it too much blood on your side?”

“This bastard? You insult our family. it’s a duel let’s fight.”

“Pahahahahaha! It’s a joke, a joke.”

“Who made a joke like that… … .”

“Anyways, are you already looking forward to it? ha ha ha!”

The man grinned as if he liked the change of atmosphere and winked at Wellington.

Wellington responded with an awkward laugh.

Ragnar’s fear can be seen in the way he seizes the atmosphere simply by sitting there.

He still hated that gaze, as if he regarded all his friends here, including himself, as ‘of course below’.

Should I say that affection as a friend and irritation as a rival coexist?

Scavenger, Axion Ragnar.

As the deficit of his 3rd wife, Resurrection, he is the most promising prospect in this flowering ceremony along with ‘Snow Ice Sword’ Ray Ragnar.

Although he usually has a playful and laughing personality, he does.

As such, he was very proud of himself and arrogant.

He was also the de facto leader of the Dragon Dragon Society.

‘The only thing I’m worried about is Axion, but there’s no point of contact between Prince Theo and Axion… … There won’t be any problems.’

Wellington stopped thinking as he poured the whiskey from his hand into his mouth.

I didn’t see it because of that.

The fact that Axion was still watching him with a strange smile.

Theo was going through an embarrassing situation for the first time after returning.

“How do you like this outfit, young master?”

“No, sister. I think a shirt with a frill like this would suit you better.”

“How about a tailcoat?”

“It’s good, but don’t you think it’s going too far over there?”

“Then this part goes to this color… … .”

“How about this hat?”

“Oh my. oh my gosh What is it? It’s perfect, boy. You have a profound sense of style.”

“You can buy clothes, so whatever you wear… … !”

chatter chatter.

jojal jojal.

The news of Theo’s first social debut quickly spread among the maids of the Rose Palace.

-I heard that the boy is making his debut in the social world for the first time!

-But the socialite said it was a very big party invited by Wellington Narcio!

– Heard that there will be a lot of distinguished guests!

-We can’t let the young boy we love walk around looking shabby!

– Let’s make it stand out the most at the meeting!

-You have a handsome face and a slim body, so anything will suit you!

The ladies-in-waiting gave up their duties and devoted themselves to finding the best clothes for Theo.

Thanks to this, Theo, who suddenly became a doll for doll play, had his eyesight spinning round and round.

‘Where am I… … Who am I… … ?’

Isn’t it just a matter of being comfortable with clothes?

Theo always had such thoughts, but he had to bend his opinion to the ladies-in-waiting’s insistence that it was absolutely not the case.

In fact, he was always treated as a child by the family, so he had only heard about the social world, because he had no idea about the ecosystem there.

All I know is that men and women dressed up in fancy clothes get along well, and behind the scenes, there are many secret conversations.

As a result, Theo had no choice but to entrust his fate to the veteran (?) ladies-in-waiting.

‘invitation… … Did I just say I was going?’

In fact, Theo accepted the invitation to learn more about blue light.

Intuitively, I thought it might have something to do with the message.

‘Although the light disappeared as soon as I received the invitation.’

However, the secret about the message must be found out.

So, in order to confirm the details, I was determined to attend even if it was annoying.

bang!

“Where on earth do you bring such vulgar and vulgar things to your son!”

The door opened nervously and Cecilia strode inside.

A series of mobs poured in behind her.

Tailors dressed neatly, servants carrying assorted fabrics in their arms, barbers carrying scissors in their hands, and people carrying makeup tools, etc., were diverse.

There were even porters struggling to move large full-length mirrors and chairs.

“You brought something like this to suit your son? What useless things! Even with eyes like this, how can you say that you are there to protect your son… … Tsk!”

Cecilia looked over the clothes on the hanger and clicked her tongue.

The maids’ heads went down by themselves.

Theo wondered if he had to step in, but Cecilia turned around with a wide smile as if she had never done that.

“This mother also heard the news about her son. Did you receive an invitation from the Gyolonghoe?”

“It happened.”

“Then how could I not visit this mother right away… … !”

Cecilia took a deep breath and continued.

“The Gyoryukai is a gathering full of equipment such as Emil, Axion, the son of the late Wicked One, and Wellington. Of course, it is bound to attract a lot of people’s attention. Even the Senate is interested. As a result, it is inevitable that pods will be caught in every single outfit, every culture, and every court etiquette.”

Theo could only nod his head silently.

It was because he knew what Cecilia had left out.

Bastard bastard of birth.

For that alone, there were so many people who would laugh at me for knowing anything about social etiquette.

In fact, I have experienced it many times in my previous life.

“Your son has a very serious personality since he was young, so there is no part that can be held back in etiquette. However, the way you dress or educate yourself is different. For those things, discernment is the most important thing, and it can’t happen overnight.”

Cecilia smiled confidently.

“But fortunately, this mother will be able to help you enough in that way. So what are you all doing? Without attending your son.”

match!

As Cecilia clapped lightly, four tailors came up to Theo with tape measure.

“Excuse me.”

From then on, it was a breeze.

He meticulously took notes as he measured his body, and also asked about Theo’s tastes.

The barbers sat Theo in front of a full-length mirror and arranged a hairstyle that would suit him.

Makeup experts discussed colors that would go well with Theo’s skin tone.

Then we get together again and talk about something closely.

All of them were words that were difficult for Theo to understand.

The curious thing was that Cecilia was the one who led the atmosphere.

He wasn’t just sticking to his own thoughts, he was listening to what experts were saying and giving feedback meticulously.

His expression was also very serious.

What should I say?

Should I say it’s full of life?

‘Dear mother… … Did you have that kind of side?’

It was a surprise to Theo, who always remembered only the mother who was always angry and jealous.

‘Come to think of it, he said he was a very famous actor at the time he fell in the eyes of the family head. Did I learn all those things there?’

The maids of the Rose Palace all looked surprised, probably seeing Cecilia for the first time.

match!

“Then, start working right away as we discussed.”

First, the barbers cut Theo’s hair.

My hair, which had been shaggy because I hadn’t tidied it up properly, was cut in clumps.

The make-up experts made Theo’s tanned features more sophisticated.

When you put on temporary basting clothes and even put on shoes.

Theo couldn’t have felt so awkward seeing himself in the full-length mirror.

on the other side.

“Oh, oh, oh, oh… … !”

“young master… … Is that right?”

oh oh

Cheers erupted from everywhere.

Some of the ladies-in-waiting were busy peeking at Theo’s profile while blushing.

Even if it wasn’t so, the face known for having the best looks in Ragnar had changed to a more handsome face.

The same goes for clothes.

The clothes that fully revealed the body that was slim and full of small muscles were wings itself.

“How are you? Do you like it?”

Cecilia smiled confidently as if she liked her work(?).

“zero… … It’s uncomfortable.”

“Originally, convenience and style are inversely proportional. Still, you have to deal with this. This is also one of the new flowering ceremonies.”

Cecilia stood side by side with Theo and tilted her head.

“By the way, has your son grown tall? I think your shoulders are much wider. Now you are far beyond this mother.”

Theo had a hard time talking about the message, so he glossed over it.

“It looks like that.”

“It’s definitely because he was growing up, so his features seem much sharper. It’s like watching the head of the household when he was younger… … .”

Theo saw the bitter smile on Cecilia’s lips for a moment.

However, Cecilia returned with a face full of confidence as if she had never done that before.

“Remember. The son is the son of this Cecilia. Dignified and dignified anytime, anywhere. Never be intimidated. If your son is confident, the world will not dare harm such a son.”

Although it may still be cheering for his son because of his twisted affection and possessiveness.

“If your son makes any mistakes, don’t worry. This mother will somehow become an umbrella to protect her son.”

Theo felt a strange feeling he hadn’t felt from her before.

“… … .”

For some reason, the lower part of my heart tickled.

* * *

“… … Is Prince Theo right? I feel like I have become a completely different person.”

“Are you even making fun of Mr. Wellington?”

Theo sighed as he climbed into Wellington’s carriage that had come to meet him at the Rose Palace.

‘It’s because they match so well.’

Wellington was puzzled by an untimely misunderstanding.

It was because the clothes were wings, and Theo looked so different that it was hard to recognize who he really was at the moment.

Perhaps, at this meeting, he was definitely the first in terms of appearance among men and women.

Less well-

The wagon wheel started turning.

The venue for the banquet is Dongbaek Palace.

There was quite a distance in the Rose Palace.

Wellington said while looking at Theo, who still felt awkward in his clothes.

“I heard that Prince Theo has never had a banquet like this.”

Theo silently nodded.

“Still, if you are Confucius, even if it is awkward, you will do it well without difficulty. My friends are also very curious about Confucius. Not bad friends. but… … .”

“Do you have any concerns?”

“Actually, Axion, that friend is a bit… … No, because it’s very naughty. It’s not malicious though… … .”

I didn’t hear Wellington’s back talk.

Axion.

Only those words lingered in Theo’s ears.

‘The place where Rendon went out of the Rose Palace and laid the rope was towards Axion. Was it just a coincidence, or… … .’

Theo made such a guess once in a while.

– Could there have been some kind of conspiracy involved in my mother’s false accusation and my death in my previous life?

-Did Rendon really have nothing to do with it?

Theo’s thoughts didn’t go on for a long time, but they stopped halfway through.

“… … The person who gave the invitation to the meeting, saying that he wanted to see Prince Theo, was actually Axion. So please don’t think badly of me.”

For a moment, Theo’s eyes lit up.

‘Is that so?’
