Chereads / Isekai Crossover: The Protagonist Who Outsmarted the System / Chapter 17 - The Picture Book of Beautiful Noble Girls Across the Country, and Geniuses Worldwide

Chapter 17 - The Picture Book of Beautiful Noble Girls Across the Country, and Geniuses Worldwide

There were only two women in the world who could make Kishi remove his perfect mask and confidently show his vulnerable side.

The first was Kishi's mother.

Despite being reincarnated through the system, the mother who gave birth to him in this world undoubtedly shared a blood connection with Kishi.

In Kishi's eyes, his mother was the kindest and most beautiful woman in the world. Although she was not born a noble and had a slender figure, she always had a very gentle smile.

She allowed Kishi, who had lived for three generations, to feel a mother's love.

"...Let's visit her grave in a few days."

However, his mother had passed away.

There was no Qingming Festival in this world, but Kishi went to pay his respects on that day every year, bringing her favorite flowers and snacks.

(note: Qingming Festival is celebrated as a celebration to pay respects to ancestors.)

It wasn't just to honor his mother, but also to remember someone's past life.

As for the other woman who could make Kishi let down his guard, she had yet to appear...

"Only the princess is qualified to see the king's vulnerable side. Unfortunately, my princess hasn't been chosen yet... Father really needs to take my selection more seriously."

Kishi was slightly dissatisfied.

Royal children were always engaged early. Although they didn't have the right to refuse, they had the right to choose, unless they gave up their right to inherit the throne.

At that time, Kishi held a thick photo album and flipped through it from noon to night, looking at the princesses of noble families across the kingdom.

As long as he checked a box, the chosen girl would become his princess or concubine in the future.

But after half a day, he hadn't chosen anyone.

His Majesty, who was already annoyed by the First Princess Agnes' nervousness about the engagement, started arguing with Kishi.

"Why haven't you chosen yet? At least pick one. Kishi, do you want to be like your brother and say you're not interested in the opposite sex and then not plan to marry? This is completely unacceptable! No matter what you say today, you have to pick one for me!"

Kishi rolled his eyes immediately.

"Father, let me choose a ghost! They're all just a bunch of little girls who haven't even grown their hair yet. I think it's too unsafe to choose now. It's like opening a blind box. What if they grow up skewed in the future? Wouldn't I suffer a great loss?"

"...What is a blind box?"

"Anyway, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so you can let the leeks stay in the ground longer."

At that time, Kishi took the picture book of noble princesses of the country and said he would wait and give them a few more years to grow up!

His standards were very high!

First and foremost, they must be beautiful.

Kishi is a very good-looking person, and he himself is extremely handsome. Since she is to be his future princess, she must be the most beautiful in the world, right?

Secondly, ability is more important.

He doesn't want a simple vase. If it's just a vase, then he can give it to a concubine at most.

As the partner of the king who will rule the world in the future, she must be capable enough to keep up with him.

Then there is character. Kishi is not particularly picky in this regard. As long as she is a good woman and loyal to him, other qualities are also good.

Finally, birth…

To be honest, anything will do.

As long as she has ability, appearance, and character, even if she is a commoner's daughter, no, even if she doesn't have magic power, Kishi doesn't care.

Rather, he was looking forward to it.

Isn't it more interesting to see a woman who climbs from a commoner to the top step by step compared to the aristocratic daughters who are born into a noble family and have a good family background?

"After all, she is the woman I will accompany for the rest of my life. I hope she will be as interesting as possible."

Kishi's breathing gradually stabilized, and he gradually fell asleep while thinking wildly.

Then he had a dream. He dreamed of a woman with long hair reaching her waist and a stunning appearance. There were conflicts everywhere she went. Everyone who saw her couldn't help but fall in love with her. She was a perfect witch.

The next day.

In the training ground behind the castle.

"Haa~"

Kishi yawned while dealing with the two women's offensive with one hand. Alpha and Beta were trying hard to break his defense, but in the end they only left themselves panting from exhaustion.

"Well, this skill is really useful."

After the break, Kishi casually threw the training sword into the scabbard dozens of meters away, and then sighed to himself.

"The 'Almighty Genius' skill."

Being able to easily master skills that others take years of practice to master is a talent that makes the word "effort" a mockery!

Originally, Kishi's swordsmanship was considered expert at best, but now it has almost reached its peak.

This skill is too useful for him.

Because Kishi possesses a huge amount of theoretical knowledge, the knowledge reserve of a total of 13,810 books in the previous life was originally just knowledge, but now it is gradually turning into Kishi's skills.

For example.

Kishi knows all the music scores of famous songs in his previous life.

But he can't play the piano because he has never touched an instrument.

Even if you can play these pieces of music, you still need to spend a lot of time practicing your performance skills.

But with the blessing of the "Almighty Genius" skill, in just ten minutes, Kishi can play any famous song from his past life with great proficiency, and his proficiency is comparable to that of a master!

"By the way, there is another ability, let's give it a try."

Kishi sets his sights on Alpha on the field.

His lavender eyes brightened slightly, and the "Eye of Bole" was activated.

This is the ability to see through her talents, but there are restrictions on its use. It can only be used once a day... After all, it is only a low-level skill, so I can understand it.

"Oh, I didn't expect it... No, should I say it's natural? Alpha's talent is actually, haha, I really found a treasure."

Kishi was so surprised that he didn't even blink. He looked at the blond elf as if he was looking at some rare treasure.
