Swordmaster Healer

Chapter 78 Receive the Imperial Order! (1)

A white swarm of light fades from view. Seong-jun who was sober turned his head and looked around.

It was the Magic Workshop of the Madodologist Zeros. Zeros was rushing from a distance whether he had read the magical flow caused by the dimensional shifts.

“Everything okay? ”

Seong-jun asked, looking at Zero who was approaching.

“There was nothing special here for me to report. Park Jung-cheol will report routinely to you later. ”

In response, Seong-jun was relieved. Zeros would have reported it in person or the train would have been waiting in the workshop if something had gone wrong.

“Sung-joon Kang. How was your journey?”

“I still have a lot to say. Let's just sit down and talk. ”

“I'll get you something to drink. ”

Zeros completed a simple spell with a single gesture. The beverage and cup that were on the side table on the wall slowly flew in front of Seongjun and Zeros. Zeros opened the lid of the bottle containing the drink and filled the empty cup in front of Seongjun.

“What happened? ”

“Before you start the conversation…… take this first. ”

Seong-jun took out the 'Riodin Crystal’ from the 'Baltger Dimension Pouch’. It was taken from a secret vault underneath the Royal Library in central Terencia.

“Riodin's Crystal! Thanks for your hard work!”

Zeros' voice brings you to life. He was genuinely pleased.

“May I ask where you got it? ”

Often, the Madodologists were unable to overcome their own curiosity and curiosity.

Zeros was the same because he was also a mathematician. He asked not to overcome the curiosity.

“You know there's a royal library in downtown Terence, right? ”

At Seong-jun's question, Zeros nodded and opened his mouth.

“Of course, I've never been, but I know that there is a royal library in each of the city centres. ”

“Did you know there's a secret vault underneath the Royal Library? ”

“I know that much. ”

Zeros answered without hesitation. He could handle a lot of confidential information because he was high up among the empire's archaeologists.

“It was in the locker there. ”

“So I see. Because the 'Crystal of Riodin’ is a rare ore, I have heard that it is distributed and stored in various regions. Who was the guardian knight? ”

The Riodin Crystal was a precious ore. It is said to be kept in secrecy, but it is clear that there must have been a knight in charge of the protection mission.

Zeros looks at Seong-jun and asks, wondering what level of knight was in charge.

“Schillings, ranked 11th in the Knights Brigade. ”

In Seong-jun's answer, Zeros opened his mouth with an unbelievable expression.

“Riodin Crystal is a rare mineral, but it can't be ranked 11th in the Knights Brigade…… Sir Kang Sung-jun…… Was there anything else there? ”

“That's what Zeros says. You know better.”

I took the cylinder out of the dimensional pocket and placed it on the table. Zeros glances at it with his eyes wide open.

“You have a sealing ritual. That is also very high quality……. ”

Zeros, like an accomplished mathematician, was able to identify the existence of a sealing ritual in the cylinder at once.

“You couldn't have placed Knights Brigade 11 for one Riodin Crystal...... and you were trying to protect this, right? ”

At the end of Seong-jun's finger, there was a cylinder with a sealing ritual. Zeros' gaze was also fixed on the cylinder.

“What do you think's in there? ”

“This appears to be a cylinder for storing documents. According to Knight Brigade No. 11, a fairly high level of confidentiality must have been maintained. ”

Zeros guessed carefully.

“Can you open it? ”

Without taking his eyes off the cylinder, Seong-jun asked the question to Zero.

“The sealing ritual is quite high. We can't open it right now. ”

“If there's enough time? ”

"You can open it. It's not impossible for me to have the name of the best maestro in the empire. ”

A confident voice echoes through the workshop. Zeros raises the cylinder with a faint smile on his mouth.

“I will unlock the Sealing Ceremony as soon as possible! It won't take long! ”

He said with conviction.

“I wonder what secrets they contain. ”

Seong-jun muttered with a close voice. Even the brigades where the strongest knights of the Empire are gathered are secret enough to place the 11th strongest except for the 13th.

If it doesn't interest you, it's a lie.

“I'll leave the Sealing Ceremony to you. ”

After a quick drink in the glass, Seong-jun looked at Zero and said.

“You have nothing to worry about. I was the best mathematician in the empire. ”

“Call me when you've unlocked the Seal. I'll be right here. ”

“I understand.”

Zeros replied with a smile. Seong-jun nodded satisfactorily and left the workshop and went up to the library. There was a train waiting at the door that I had been contacted in advance.

“Are you here?”

“Let's go inside. ”

First, I opened the library door and went inside. The train followed behind me, closing the door.

“You have successfully absorbed a group of bones from the Blue Dragon group. They will never again threaten us with influence in the financial sector. ”

Good news. Merging absorption between large corporations is not an easy task, but it seems that he did a better job than expected.

“What happened to the guilds working with the relics? ”

I knew the Skull Guild was completely destroyed. I heard recently that the guilds that have been working with them are also following the same order. But I couldn't confirm it until the end.

“I was going to report it if I didn't. Nine guilds, including the Skull Guild, have been disbanded and their property seized. The Blue House has transferred ownership of some of the confiscated property along with an informal thank you. ”

“You transferred some of the ownership of guild funds confiscated from the Blue House to us? ”

I knew it was unusual to transfer ownership of confiscated goods.

Seong-jun had a look that he couldn't understand, but Jeongchul was making his own assumptions.

“Since the guild leader was judged to be an SSS-grade hunter, the attitude of the Qingwa School has changed greatly. I think he's feeling threatened by the United States of America's occupation. ”

“Maybe so. ”

Seong-jun nodded and replied. He also agreed with Jeongchul's thoughts.

“By the way, why would you be so anxious when you have a contract? ”

In the past, he made a contract with the country to receive preferential settlement of the stops in South Korea on terms of refusing the proposal from the United States. Jeongchul knew that too.

“The guild leader has become an SSS-grade hunter. In fact, the contract is meaningless. Even if you go to the United States right now, there's no way to stop it in South Korea. ”

Jung Chul's words were cold, but true. The power and influence of an SS class Hunter was enormous. The SSS class had to be transcendent in everything.

“I'm not crossing over to the United States right now. I have not made a big mistake in Korea. ”

Seong-jun said, Jung Chul also nodded and opened his mouth with a calm expression.

“Even an SSS-grade hunter should refrain from causing trouble as much as possible. Wise decision.”

“By the way, since the top nine guilds have been disbanded, our guild ranking must have been a little higher, too. ”

“Not just a little, but a lot. Because of Yoo Shin-cheol's S grade, our Road Guild became the 10th ranked guild in Korea. ”

He gave the good news with a smile on his mouth.

“That's great.”

Seong-jun nodded calmly. The joy was clear, but I wasn't excited because it was a somewhat expected result.

“I've also been told that I'd like to informally thank Hound Guild for being promoted to ninth place. ”

As a Hound Guild, I had no choice but to thank Seong-jun. If it weren't for him, the top nine guilds would still be alive, and Hound's guild would not have had the honor of ranking in the top nine.

“Let me know if you get this right. I don't have time to meet in person. ”

Seong-jun said, meeting with the Hound Guild Master may not be a bad idea, but he's been busy lately. I didn't have much time to spend.

“You'll understand in the Hound Guild. The guild leader is so busy that no one in Korea knows him. ”

“I'm going to be out of town for a while. I want you to keep working on the guild with Han-seok. ”

“It's not that hard. I'll do my best."

Jeongchul smiled as he replied. It was believable.

“A moment ago, the main city of Terencia was attacked. ”

In the dark, a blonde man reveals himself. He was Bolt, the chief commander of the Special Forces Survey Unit.

“What's the damage? ”

Earl Ares, the commanding officer, lowers his glass and asks questions.

“The accurate report will arrive soon, but the erl Terencia is safe first.... ”

Bolt reports. The only reason he came to Ares was through a verbal advance.

Due to the nature of the mission, the Special Forces had to be able to get information quickly. Because regular reporting takes time to complete and move, occasionally, verbal communication through people took place when important information was available.

“But there must have been some other damage to the blur of the end. ”

“An undisclosed vault in the Royal Library in downtown Terence has been robbed. ”

“What? The place Lord Shillings was guarding?" ”

“That's right.”

“Oh my God……. ”

Ares' voice trembles. If his memory is correct, the secret to the Royal Library's secret vault in the city of central Terencia is hidden.

“Where's the locker?”

“The Sealing Ceremony has been lifted and the Riodin Crystal and Confidential Documents have been stolen from the vault. In addition, Sir Shillings was killed. ”

In Bolt's report, Ares felt his head twitching and aching.

‘The confidential document that was stored in the underground Royal Library of the Central City of Terencia contains a deadly note to His Majesty……. Was it because I kept it somewhere else in secret to prevent the Central Nobles from being seen...? ’

I regretted it later, but it didn't work. The spilled water. The Knights Brigades' seals were dead and the documents they were storing were stolen.

“This is bad. ”

Ares bites his lip with enough blood to leak out. He picks up the uniform coat from the wall.

“Commander?”

“I need to know the Emperor right away. Prepare the wagon.”

He puts on a uniform coat as he gives the bolt instructions. Only the Emperor of the Empire and Earl Ares, commander of the Special Forces, knew about the classified documents stored in the underground Royal Library of Central Terence.

‘We must inform the Emperor……! ’

I was in a hurry.
