Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter 77

Conclusion

It was a long night before the sun went down.

There was a light that illuminated the night sky that was invisible even by the clouds. The white light that was extinct suddenly fell to the ground.

To the outer wall of the planet, to be precise.

Kuaaaaang!

The wall shakes with a loud rumbling sound.

It was Sererheim's first strike. Suddenly, the sacred magic that covered the sky began to fall like a meteor. However, Sererheim's attack is only a matter of time before he is blocked.

Phew! Phew!

It was because the wizards who were waiting on the walls cast a defensive spell.

Sererheim bludgeoned more ferociously at this scene. Both sides have exchanged numerous workshops since then.

And the situation in this battle reached Ferda's ears in the north.

“· · · · · · · More than · ·, so far is the view of the East Gate. ”

Kalman, kneeling politely, finishes his report.

Immediately after eliminating the paladin dispatched to the castle, Ser Heim immediately stepped into an attack position. After exactly one hour, he regained all his posture and poured out attack magic like now.

‘Of course it's pointless. ’

No matter how powerful the sacred magic may be, it is not enough to break down the walls. Besides, don't Sererheim's troops have siege weapons? Therefore, we didn't have to worry about the downfall of Uranus right away.

Ferda quickly opened her mouth after clearing up the situation.

“How did the First Prince react? ”

“There's no response to that. ”

“I hear the wizards of the tower have left. ”

“That's true. But it's just about repairing the walls and keeping the defensive magic there. Also, according to an informant on Prince 1's side, he doesn't seem to have any intention of countering yet. ”

Well, you have no choice.

If we strike back, we'll send more troops from Ser Heim. Then it's as if the war has really started since then. Ferda nods as if she understood. Then she asks the next question.

“So what's the deal with Prince Two? ”

“I took up arms. The North Gate is more intense than the East Gate. ”

Sarphene's reaction is not to be understood.

He was mistaken that Ser 'Him would fight for him.

“Got it. Keep your eyes peeled. ”

“Yes!”

After a short answer, Kalman hides his face.

A barracks completely extinct. Ferda taps the round table and looks up at the sky. It looked like it was waiting for someone.

At that moment, suddenly, the darkness on the floor shivered.

Immediately, the silver owl flew up in splendor. It was the Spirit of the Night, in the bridge.

“Ferda, it's from the realm. ”

In fact, there was a crack in Ferda's face in the word "contact."

At the same time, the words in the bridge continued.

“This side is ready, so he can talk to me anytime. ”

As soon as I heard that, I smiled beyond the crack.

It was because the answer I had been waiting for had returned.

Up from his seat, Ferda gazed at the barracks where the second prince, Sarphene, lived. The moment there was cold light in his eyes, the only popularity within the barracks disappeared.

* * *

It's after dark and it's dawn.

The battle between the North Gate and the East Gate has entered a minor state. It was because of the fatigue from the battle. Sererheim has been bitten by an army to refurbish, and Sarphene has also been bitten back.

Peace has come for a while.

However, the tension continued to be tense. This was no exception to the command barracks. While the soldiers were resting, the nobles, including Sarphene, were in a meeting of operations.

“Less damage than I expected. ”

“Yes, it was because the enemy's response was passive. ”

In response, Sarphene nods silently.

After the damage report, I naturally moved on to the next question.

“Oh, when did you say the siege weapon would arrive? ”

“They will arrive tomorrow night. ”

Everything was going smoothly.

However, Sarphene's firm face did not have any flaws. It was because there was a problem that had not been resolved.

“Now all that's left is how to deal with the wizards of the tower. ”

As soon as the word "wizard" appeared, the barracks became silent.

Sarphene looks at the horses as the nobles look at each other.

“Feel free to say anything you have to say. ”

A long face and a long voice.

The nobles who saw this opened their mouths one by one, hesitating.

“I've been thinking a lot about that. ”

“I think it would be best to have Serrhaim's help as well. ”

But the answer was always the same.

Compared to the fact that the first prince had hundreds of wizards, there were few wizards in Sarphene's army.

“If there is no means to suppress the wizard, ”

“Even with siege weapons, the situation won't change. ”

Wizards are not fools.

I know how intimidating siege weapons are in the Water Temple. So as soon as they find the siege weapon, they will definitely try to destroy it first.

Sarphene, on the other hand, had no means of stopping it.

That's why he asked for help from the Holy Spirit. On the other hand, was it because the Holy Spirit was mentioned continually? Sarphene sighs and answers.

“Phew, got it. This meeting is over for today. ”

After preaching the end of the meeting, the nobles inside the command barracks slipped away like a tide. As everyone disappeared, the surrounding area quickly became calm.

A quiet place where only breathing sounds.

Then Sarphene suddenly opened her lips.

“· · · · · · · Argal. ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Argal looks down, waiting behind you.

Sarphene growls ferociously.

“Have you found the old man's answer yet? ”

I didn't have to ask who I was talking to.

An ally that makes Sarphene's planting most uncomfortable at the moment. I was talking about the Marquis of Lekelton. Then Argal bows his head again.

“I'll think about it until the end of the week. ”

“Tsk! This isn't going to help. ”

It's not so hard to create a place to talk one-on-one with Sererheim. Sarphene, with her tongue, mutters with an unworthy face.

“If I had known this, I should have set up a spot earlier. ”

Then we wouldn't have to burn it like this.

Regrets are swept away like waves. Argal asks a cautious question as Sarfene's eyes crumple.

“If you achieve your goal, what will you do next? ”

“Why ask the obvious? We need to take care of it now.”

Sarphene answered without hesitation.

I was with Sichun, who slit his throat with his thumb.

Meanwhile, Argal clamps his mouth silently. Sarphene's decision was in some way reasonable. As soon as I got into the business, I was just getting rid of someone who was going to get in the way.

Then you hear a question that breaks Argal's mind.

“By the way, what happened to the Knights under the Duke? ”

“I've already finished the raid. If Earl Lekelton is no longer in the world, everyone will pledge their allegiance to you. ”

“I like that quite a bit. ”

A light smile appeared on Sarphene's face, which had been stiff all day.

The moment I was about to get up from my seat, my body suddenly shivered. It was due to dizziness. But thanks to Argal's swift pace, he was able to avoid falling to the ground.

“Perhaps you should rest a bit. ”

“Hnng, I think we should. ”

It was worth the dizziness.

I haven't had a good night's sleep in weeks. With a headache, Sarphene frowns. Later, I was transported to bed by Argal.

Halt!

For a moment, Argal stops.

Somewhat unnatural behavior. Sarphene asked curiously.

“Argal? Suddenly why · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·.. ”

At that moment, Sarphene also closed her mouth.

It was because he realized why he stopped walking. Popularity at the entrance of the barracks. Sarphene turns her head quietly. Then there was a figure who had just been the subject of conversation.

“Marquis?”

He's nothing but the Marquis of Lekelton.

Sarphene tilts her head in the appearance of an unexpected figure.

“What are you doing here? The meeting was just about to end. ”

“Lord Regelton, I have decided to follow your suggestion. ”

Before the end of Sarphene's words.

The Grand Duke bowed his head and said. Then Sarphene's eyes changed greatly. It was because the erl knew what he was going to say.

“The Marquis, now, says · · · · · · · · ·. ”

“I will arrange a place for you to speak with Sererheim. ”

Sarfene's expression brightens at once.

I feel like the rotting inside has been resolved. Faced with the Marquis's solemn face, Sarphene bursts into laughter.

“Hahaha, thank goodness. I felt uneasy because I knew that the erl was struggling alone. ”

I smiled with a voice that I didn't have in mind.

Afterwards, Sarphene spoke again.

“Anyway, you thought well. So when do seats start? ”

“Instead, I want to apologize for my rudeness. ”

“Hmm? Rude? ”

Sarphene suddenly asked me a question.

Then the baron turns his head quietly. Soon his gaze reached Argal.

“Sir Winvester. ”

“ · · · · · ·? ”

“You haven't forgotten your manners, have you? ”

Argal's expression hardens for a moment.

It is because he remembered something that troubles him. The monarch squeezes through the crack and relentlessly bites.

“Your Majesty's orders are one thing, but I am the Lord of this country. But how can you threaten me like that? ”

“That's · · · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

Argal tries to explain, but soon he shuts up.

There was no explanation. The Marquis's words were true. So, at a time when I could neither do this nor that, I heard Sarphene's voice.

“Argal. Apologize to the baron. ”

A face that looks angry. Beyond that, however, there was a pressure of something to apologize and hand over. Feeling this, Argal turns away, his face stiffened. Then, facing the erl, I slowly ducked my waist.

“· · · · · · · Sorry. I was rude.”

To be honest, it was a matter of pride, but Argal didn't mind. It was the Lord's command to serve him. Most importantly, the Count of Lekelton is about to disappear from the world. So I didn't care enough to bow my head.

But Argal didn't know.

What he did now was the biggest mistake of his life.

“From now on, be careful not to do this. ”

I continued to apologize for my elongation.

Immediately, instinct whispered a warning. A warning so urgent that your whole body's fur grows thick and your whole body's blood cools quickly. Argal tries to react with reflexes, but it's already too late.

Puck!

A terrifying sound pierces his chest.

At the same time, an unidentified force overwhelms the entire body. The limb hardens like a stone, and the entire body's magic evaporates in an instant.

A situation that was overwhelmed in an instant.

What was even more surprising was that it was Earl Lekelton who defeated him. No, not exactly the Marquis. He was Ferda, the assassin who was wearing the mantle of the Marquis.

Argal also opens his eyes to see if he has noticed it.

He then trembled, squeezing out all his strength.

“Th! Thy majesty. Glug! Blood, shelter · · · · · · · ·. ”

I felt like thinking about the Lord until the end.

However, I could not connect any more words.

Wood Duck!

It was Ferda's head that went back the other way. Argal's body sags with the sound of crunching neck bones. It was a hopeless end for the sovereign masters of the realm.

But I will not be lonely on the way.

There's still one left.

“What the hell!? Huff!”

Sarphene takes a step back with a puzzled face. However, Ferda's grip grips him shortly. Perhaps he can't breathe well, but his face grows more pale.

“Glug! Glug! ”

Sarphene in agony.

Ferda, on the other hand, is surprisingly expressionless. He mutters boldly, his grip full of strength.

“Maybe you don't know. How I've waited for this day. ”

In the second episode of the original, Sarphene said: I'm going to keep him in my sights as a slave. And in the sixth round, I betrayed him and handed him over to the Holy Land.

Thinking about this, Ferda's mouth smiled. He looks at Sarphene's face and says it again.

“You look like you have a lot to say, but I don't want to hear it. ”

I'm leaving the stage soon anyway.

Above all, Sarphene needs to disappear to make planning easier. Ferda breaks his cervical spine without hesitation.

In the original, the prince had always been victorious.

Win the civil war, the man who has always been the next king.

The second prince, Sarphene, met his end like this.

And even in death, Sarphene's body was not completely preserved. It was Ferda's hand that separated his head from his torso. He tucks Sarphene's head in his sack, and quietly sweeps his lips.

“Kalman.”

“Boss, you wanted to see me? ”

As soon as the page ends, Kalman reveals himself.

Ferda hands him the sack with Sarphene's head.

“Send this to Prince One. And. ”

“Yes, I'll spread the word as soon as I'm ready. ”

I nodded silently for a quick answer.

After that, Kalman's movements disappeared in the blink of an eye. Ferda, who remains alone, also covers up the traces in the barracks and hides herself as well.

Not long after that.

The Second Prince's camp is literally overturned.
