From a terminal Soldier to Monarch
< 193 A.D. Where is he? (3) >
“Duke Fraunmut, did you really try to kill the baron's son? ”
I thought this was what I was doing.
I entered the palace and entered the royal battle.
Then some of the nobles gathered and barked at me.
“Also, I'd like to ask if it's also true that you dug up a healthy farm under the Decree of Gloucester. ”
His name sounded familiar.
Holds?
“Hooal?”
As he pulls his horse, he shakes his cheek and says,
“Baron Holban. ”
Oh, right. Holban.
I remembered, he was a creditor to the Yul Novan family.
I said I didn't have to repay that debt.
I don't mind asking you to repay me now, but I don't want to repay you.
You want Lady Agatha with that face? No matter how noble and wealthy you are, you can't afford that face.
In fact, by now, you'd have turned into five pieces on Royce's blade.
Come to think of it, I'm a lifesaver to this little guy.
“I heard you dodged a duel with the Banks Birch. ”
Baron Holban speaks, and the nobles behind him look carefully at me.
I blinked. Do you have a death wish?
I looked at the king.
“I heard.”
He spoke up without much interest.
Baron Kesix.
I confronted Holban.
“Do you know how much the tax is on the territory of Kesix? ”
“…… what are you talking about? ”
“I warned you to take care of the colonists. ”
“Each territory is the lord's responsibility! No other noble should interfere! ”
Baron Holban is annoyed.
I'm starting to wonder. What the hell does he believe in, coming out here?
Do you really think I wouldn't kill you because I'm a saint?
You're not gonna see blood in the war?
“Be patient.”
The duchess whispers behind you.
My hands are itchy. Okay, we'll just have to be patient.
I was able to wrap things up quickly.
I mean, not with your fists, but with your mouth?
Will you not let me set foot in this palace?
I was objectively reminded of what I did.
‘It's not normal. ’
But I was moving as efficiently as I could in a short time. Thanks to that ride, no one would have noticed what I was doing exactly.
You can't just go around spreading rumors about artifacts.
It's hard to see an artifact for a lifetime on the central continent.
Senior nobles, even a king of a country, should have a few.
One of those artifacts made by human craftsmen is a teenage treasure.
Another Dwarf's treasure.
There is only one Cursed Horseman.
If word gets out that I have all of this, the snowy bastards will almost come after me.
There will be bandits who want to turn their lives upside down at once.
‘I know all about my periods with those bandits. ’
They'll think they won't get caught if they die.
I turned my thoughts on the artifact and looked around the crowd.
I felt laughed at by the way they looked at me. You think he's an idiot who knows nothing about politics, don't you?
Now, I can't say I don't know politics at all.
Politics is a whirlwind between the enemy's weaknesses and their digs.
And nobles were specialized in such things.
Even though Baron Holban didn't look like much, the front and back of the horse seemed to fit perfectly.
Originally, I had to defend myself and tell him, too, lying in the mud.
“What do you believe in? ”
Why not?
“Phew.”
In the background, you hear someone holding back their laughter in a hurry.
I am the most powerful force in this country, with the king on my side and my throne as the Duke.
There is only one duc in the current Cercado, so I don't have to say that the status quo is high.
If he was a flamethrower, would he have come here?
“If you want to die, you can wriggle your neck here. ”
When I told him, Baron Holban swallowed his saliva. After that, those who noticed me took two steps back.
Yeah, you better think about it.
Get in line. You guys.
“Hahahaha!”
Seeing that, Edric smirks and smirks at the bracelet of the throne.
“This is the battle of kings. You are a nobleman of Sergado, and you swore allegiance to the king. How can you say such arrogant things......."
“Who are you? ”
The old nobleman cut off his horse.
He glances at me instead of speaking. It was like a crucian carp.
“Earl Poltens. He's also the Queen's brother. ”
Earl Allergin said in the back.
“Oh, the Queen's brother. Are you that close? ”
I think I've lived three times as much as I do now, but does that matter?
Do we need to respect those who chew their age with their anus?
“Y-you really don't see the king? ”
I looked back.
Edric laughs and seems to fall off the throne.
“I can see very well. ”
The queen's trusted brother shuts up.
I don't know where to sell my sister.
You hear the sound of breathing from behind and the hissing.
At a glance, the Earl of Allergy pinches his thigh as he catches his breath.
“Royal Guard! Will you leave this arrogant man who has undermined the authority of the royal family? ”
Old man, you have a good voice.
The queen's brother shouts.
I looked back.
“Your Majesty, may I speak plainly? ”
In other words, the king stood up, smiling, grabbing the boat with one hand and shaking with the other.
I was told to do whatever I wanted.
You can see the Royal Guard staggering.
When I saw the old nobleman who had grown old as an anus, I empowered his lower belly and shouted to him.
“How can a sword that guards the royal family move on noble horses! ”
The Royal Guard has stopped moving.
Come at me if you want to. Unless you're afraid of the aftermath.
Their duty is to protect the royal family.
Protecting the king and queen is all that matters. They have no reason to follow this guy's orders.
I stopped them and looked around at the left and opened my mouth.
“Do you really want to die? Why do you think I let you live? ”
I was irritated.
“When Teggs talks about it, he works his way across the border! ”
As I take a step forward, Earl Allergan nods next to me.
“I'm aiming at Sunset Hyde with open arms! ”
You damn noble bastards. But my father always said,
I'm not fixing people.
“The southern elephant has come to mark the territory beyond our fence in fear of the end of the civil war, and the Lion of the North Ice seeks an opportunity to show fangs. And yet it looks like this! ”
I knew you'd wake up.
I was an idiot.
He suffered civil war, died of a typhoid ball, and Decillo went missing.
The nobles have no place to go.
I really thought they'd come to their senses.
I really wanted to.
But not at all.
If I had time to take care of them, I would have taken care of them all myself.
But I couldn't afford it.
I wouldn't be able to stay in the palace for a few days, and then I had to leave.
And yet, this shape.
“Baron Kesix sucks the blood out of needy territory due to civil war. Huh, I couldn't believe it. I heard that farming is rich and has nothing to eat. Do you think that makes sense? And what, Bird of the Bank? He challenged me to a duel? If he is, bring him to me. ”
You can see the familiar face in the Noble Fissure basket. It's called Bird of Bank.
Duel. This man told me to kill myself rather than stand in my way and wage war.
I said get out of my way. I can't kill you. I couldn't shed the blood of a passing tribe, so I turned away from him.
“Duel? Shall we do it here? ”
Where in the world is my precious life?
Bird of the bank quietly mutters, "No."
What the hell did he believe in?
Goddamn noble bastards.
“Listen up. ”
I opened my mouth to the nobles.
“He who rebels against the king from this day forth, if I hear him, I will die. Those who defy the interests of the nation will die if they are caught. Don't think I don't know that. ”
Guys, you don't want that, do you?
“Earl Xenix, do you believe the wealth you received from Teggs will save your life? ”
I thought about the look on his face when he was hiding behind me.
“I'm not letting you do this out of ignorance. ”
Everyone shut up about my rebuke. Baron Holban stopped, and the queen's brother became mute with honey.
The Royal Guard is silent.
You keep your mouth shut and look down at the nobles and open your mouth to the king.
“Your Majesty, I'm sorry for the disturbance. ”
“It's all right. Between us. ”
Edric said with a fresh smile. He laughed as if what happened in the war was really fun.
* * *
It was a separate meeting from the war.
Edric asks to see you later and walks away.
I thought you were going to grab me and talk. I was surprised.
Instead, two nobles took hold of me.
“That was refreshing.”
Earl Zigzag said.
He smiled gladly without touching the tea and refreshments in front of his eyes.
“I just said what I wanted to say. ”
“Duke, are you married? ”
Earl Allergy asked. The Marquis of Archbishop glares at you.
“What are you doing? Earl, don't you know where my old daughter is? ”
“Haven't you heard anything about that long time together? I have a young and beautiful daughter. ”
The first thing I said was, I saw the Marquis of Sieg, and then I saw me.
“Earl, do you want to lose me and Chuck? ”
“Chuck, it's between people and people. You can't blame me for that, can you? ”
Ouch, you guys.
Tongue!
The baron smashes the cup. A few drops of tea splashed over the table.
The refreshments were broken and the dish was slightly repositioned.
The duke looks up at Earl Allergan.
“Your daughter is not thirteen anymore! ”
“When I was 13, I was all grown up. When I heard the story of the bard who stopped 2,000 with four, I couldn't help but marry him. ”
“Profit. My daughter is Sercado's finest beauty! ”
“That's what my daughter would look like when she grew up. ”
When the Earl of Siegfried his teeth and tried to add something to it,
Earl Allergin was about to tell me more about his daughter's charms.
I kept my eyes open on the swinging table.
I picked up my finger and dipped it in tea water to smell the aroma.
Earl Allergon smelled it, and he smelled it.
“...... What are you doing? ”
The erl and the erl stare at me and ask,
I cut open the refreshments without an answer and looked inside.
It was a brilliant trick.
It was a poison that was never found through taste when eaten one by one.
It was a poison called thread and needle.
When I ate it, my gut ached like a needle, and it was a name I had to eat one and then eat the other within ten minutes to have an effect.
The poison must be used together to be effective.
It's the perfect technique for someone with the right amount of aroma and flavor to detect this poison.
“I'm amazed. ”
I muttered. I raised my head to the sky, leaving two unhappy fathers with my daughter's pride.
“This is not the end. ”
A deadly poison, but not indecipherable.
Who? At least he knew me a little.
Inevitable poison.
Thung.
As I heard the sound of the protests bouncing, I raised my hand to block the front of the table.
It wasn't for me, it was for a father with two daughters.
Tong! Tong!
Two bolts were inserted in succession. I grabbed the table shield and held them back.
Boom!
The visit is roughly open and people dressed in black rush in.
I counted them with the view of the table crevices.
‘One, two, three, four…… seven. ’
Three with crossbows, two with nets, and two connected to something like a club, and immediately held the assembled spear and aimed. The throwing dagger must have been basically with it.
They know how to hunt the Vice Knights.
It was not a crude technique used by mercenaries, but the right one.
Tupperware!
The crossbow spills out an elongated bolt, leaving you with no room to breathe.
I blocked the bolt's trajectory as if the table were a real shield.
Tudder!
The moment you want to block the bolt, you strike the top with a spear.
The table was split with a bang. Then a net fell over my head.
It was inevitable.
If I avoid them, they both die.
There were no weapons in the palace because weapons were forbidden.
Together, they were professional trained assassins and vice night killers, comparable to one Rachel.
Soon as the net fell, I threw my shield table up.
La-lak!
The table pushes the net as it is. Meanwhile, two javelins fly towards me and four bolts aim for the two behind me.
Oh, come on, I can't let you die.
Count Allergy, too, but Count Zigzag is Emilia's father.
I took three steps back, looking at the spear with my own eyes, and grabbed two of the bolts of the four feet with my hands and took the other two feet inside of my suit.
Boom!
Given the shock, the crossbow was also a luxury item.
‘I want to take it and give it to Murdock. ’
How to make weapons is confidential in any country. A crossbow like that was an impossible item to find.
Anyway, this should buy us enough time.
Ugh.
It wasn't until I had finished thinking. The red light hits their backs.
I'm not here alone, and no matter how bad my knights get, they don't leave me alone in places like this.
Suddenly, Digo's guillotine slashes across the air.
Whew!
The air is torn and the wind howls and pushes away due to guillotine's movements.
Seven assassins dodged the attack, too.
Digo swings his fist at one of the survivors.
Puck!
The assassin does not scream.
Instead, his face turned bloody and flew to one side and hit him.
At the same time, I heard a deep voice.
“Failure, my children. ”
I muttered.
After the other assassin, Royse's sword pierces through the ship in blood.
“Are you all right?”
“Moderately.”
I'm fine. But the two surprised nobles behind me are still unconscious.
“Wrap it up.”
I said five assassins ran in the other direction at the same time. One of them bounces off the wall.
Judgment is very quick. But there was only one way out of here.
They all ran out the door.
Royce tries to throw his sword out.
But sooner than that, Digo pulls Gillotin back and reaches out.
Blood smoke envelops his guillotine. At the same time, there was a bang at the only exit.
