The Old Knight of a Frontier District

Episode 10: The Return of Gordon Zarkos (Part I)

1

After that, he continued his journey smoothly and the line crossed from Paderia to Linz aboard the boat.

Uncle Linz was very pleased with Bardo's reunion with Gordon and Cars, and also welcomed a rare guest named Gerkast's Brave and entertained him with a drink to keep.

At the same time, he expressed joy at the unprecedented situation of Knights of the Borders' executives deliberately crossing the river to greet the Linz Fort residence.

Its delightful colour only began, as Knights Deputy Chief Maitalp showed his courtesy to Uncle Linz as an authentic Count.

Bardo reported to Uncle Linz that he had adopted Venn Urrill to change his name to Cars Lowen.

He also thanked Uncle Linz for taking care of Cars, telling the story of the backdrop where Cars appeared at an exquisite time and saved a row of crises.

"Uhm.

Funny things happen all around Lord Bardo.

As much as I'd like to accompany you on your journey.

No, no.

Then you were right to hold Lord Cars back.

Well, I'm not sure I thought I'd go wrong, but sometimes I wanted to stay with you for a while.

Besides, Lord Cars didn't want to go to Krask.

Still, an adopted son?

Lord Bardo's.

There's going to be a lot of jealous guys. "

That night Uncle Linz made me listen to what was only in Bardo and Gordon.

The Zarkos' secret weapons are being sold.

Uncle Linz is buying away a small amount.

Gordon, who saw the real thing, said this must have been something in his castle.

There was also a delightful story.

It is the fur of a warcraft.

Uncle Linz learned, following a report by Jurchaga, that the value of the fur of the Warcraft was not understood at all in the Pakra territory.

So I sent a messenger to the Tercia family, offering to keep any old fur or bones I didn't mind selling.

If it is the fur of a warcraft, it can be sold for a small fraction of the price.

From furniture conditioning and decorations to canes and small stores as well as protective equipment, items with warcraft furs and bones are super luxurious.

If you go to the king's capital of Parzam, there are craftsmen who know how to process it.

Applications vary depending on the type of warcraft.

And it may be said that the House of Tercia has the skin and bones of all kinds of warcraft.

The fur sold at a price that surprised Bardo when he heard.

Now, under Uncle Linz, the furry attraction of the Warcraft has arrived from the King's Capital.

Rumors that the skin of a decent warcraft had never been bought or sold in decades and that houses with large stockpiles seemed to be on the periphery had not spared the interest of nosy aristocrats and merchants.

Uncle Linz will continue to be commissioned in bulk for the fur of the Warcraft from Pakula.

The Tercia family gained a lot of economic relaxation.

Uncle Linz said that I also greatly benefited from the fur trade, and he also gave me a horse in a lavish manner.

If that Engdall Jen is going to join you, it's because you need a ride.

Gerkast warriors meant they could ride horses too, so this well-deserved gift was appreciated.

Yanzengo was greatly angry with himself for not thinking about it.

In an astonishingly small number of days compared to the last time, we got to where Engdall lives.

Face-to-face, it was strange that Yanzengo, a warrior of hundred wars and smells, was terribly nervous.

When Engdall heard Bardo called with a tribute to the proud warrior named "Ngedo," the brave Yanzengo was peeling his eyes.

That means Engdall regards Baldo as a reciprocal warrior.

In the end, it was the Knight Maitarp that moved Engdal's heart.

Maitalp spoke crumbly of the whistle that had shut down his father Oigen, and of the fact that at the end of the day he committed suicide and wrote, "Tell Engdal my atonement," and that Oigen's wife also regretted the matter until his death.

And after acknowledging that my deeds were errors,

"It was not a mistake for Lord Engdall to be his guarantor, and it is up to me to reveal that this is the only way to restore my father's honor."

In spite of that, the stubborn Engdall also finally agreed to return to his family.

The next morning, Bardo told everyone that he, Gordon and Cars were breaking up here.

The three of us are going to go find out what happened to the Zarkos.

Then, when Engdall,

"Is the city of Coit far from it?"

I've been asking.

Gordon replied that the shortest distance is through the city of Coit to Maisia.

At this time, I finally remembered Bardo, too.

The merchant coin sill that had been carrying the goods to Engdall.

That merchant said he had a store in Coit.

I'm going to tell that merchant that I'm leaving because my people are here to pick me up.

Engdall doesn't want to go to Koit or ask me to take him.

Same as ever.

Proud Gerkast warriors never ask for anything from humans.

So I just have to take this one out.

Bardo declared that we would all go to the city of Coit.

The inhabitants of the city of Coit greeted this rare group as they lay high on the roads.

Coyncil welcomed the group with surprise and joy, but called Gordon aside to tell us some worrying facts.

Maisian territory is now de facto dominated by Gordon's uncle and doing free will.

Gordon's sister and his wife's son should have returned from knight training, but he's probably been put in jail and held hostage.

The Great Lords should also know about this, but originally it was also a matter of non-interference in internal affairs, whether they were giving large sums of money to bribes or not trying to move them at all.

By the way, when Gordon Zarkos embarked on his journey about Bardo, he left behind documents giving the lord over to his sister's son-in-law.

But there has been no such circular in the city of Coit.

Coinsill's information network is not hooked up with any information that would make Maisian Lords change.

Naturally, Bardo thought so.

My sister and her wife should not have been willing to take the lord's seat.

Even now, Lord Maisia is Gordon Zarkos.

2.

Bardo said that me, Cars and Gordon were free to run errands, so we broke up here.

But we all seem to have felt something, and no one is going to break up and go home.

But when I explained the situation, I told them to cooperate.

Saying it could be a battle was counterproductive, and it was the beginning and end of being blamed by the Gerkasts and the Knights of the Border Knights for excluding us from such a fun story.

For some reason, they are all willing to fight.

Baldo took a big, deep breath to change his mood, and when he tightened his face, he set up an operation and gave instructions.

The first step is to take back the hostages and ensure the safety of the sisters and their wives.

Thankfully, they say there is a hidden passage leading from the mountains into the castle.

Hearing more about the intervals in the castle from Gordon, Cars headed from the hidden passage to help the hostages.

The three Gerkasts pushed to the front of the castle and made a lot of noise.

Something and the soldiers of the castle pack.

Keep your attention on the carpet, and then Engdall,

"Get Eurika Zarkos and Kainen Zarkos out!

And he yelled.

The two fangs that have grown from the lower jaw add to the ferocity of the appearance.

Intimidated by a demon-faced green giant, Gordon's uncle offered Gordon's sister and wife.

They were pushed outside the castle gate, shaking, but asking Engdall what can I do for us?

Engdall gave the letter.

There, in Gordon's letter, "These Gerkasts are friends. I'm rescuing the middle from the hidden passage right now. Pretend to talk for a while and buy some time. From Gordon."

Eventually, Middle Zarkos was rescued.

Gordon Zarkos showed up in front of the gate.

Two knights, Bardo and the Knights of the Borders, and Cars and Middle followed.

Gordon is the owner of a large body.

Whether you look at it from the front or from the side, its shape is filled with martial arts and tears.

"Behold, listen!

Gordon Zarkos, the castle owner.

Hearing that his uncle, Kritop Zarkos, had broken his promise to his late father and left the castle and territory wanting, he returned from his journey.

My nephew, who was taken hostage, saved him this way.

My sister and her wife are here too.

My loyal ministers.

Discuss those who are worse than this.

Don't mistakenly confront me!

Too loudly, an ancient sword hung on Bardo's waist shook in horror.

A man like Kritop Zarkos stands on the walls of the castle.

Gordon Zarkos, also known for his magnificence, returned.

Follow the three horrible green giants and the four likely knights.

"Also, drop the gate!

Archers.

Shoot me. "

The gatekeeper's soldier disobeyed the life of Kritop and vice versa,

"We will not let the gate fall.

Castle owner. Please come in!

shouted.

Some of the archers followed Kritop's life, but Gordon's nephew was Cars, and his sister and his wife were protected by the Gerkasts.

Kritop had hired a dozen knights of the stream.

Some ministers from the original.

He also hired some miscellaneous soldiers.

I thought I could win in numbers, or I've challenged the fight.

The settlement was quickly reached.

Exactly a touch of armor sleeve.

Particularly struggling was the young man Meritoke of Gerkast.

Meritoke was a chunk of plenty.

He snuck out into one battle and set an unprecedented dishonor record of losing one-on-one to humans.

The enemy is down if he realizes while shaking his jerky head.

When I was soon slaughtered, I was overrun by the chief surrogate.

If you ask, you will be lightly defeated by a human, and Baldo Lowen defeated that human without pulling out his sword.

What a cowardly jump at someone who was blinded by a human being and was passing out because of a battle.

What an ugly state.

What a humiliation.

I've been looking for someone to worry about, all the time with a grudge.

Now it was all about turning up, blowing up who was coming at me.

I'm not even tempted to scratch an arrow or a sword.

And when the sword of the knight, which had been struck, was broken, and hated, he fell into it.

I lifted it and hit the wall.

In advance, however, he was cautioned not to kill anyone except if he had to, because he was an enemy of the Zarkos family, so he did not kill them even if he was injured.

In the end he didn't kill one and recaptured the castle.

That there was so much difference in power that you could control it without killing it.

This one has hardly even been scratched.

All the bad guys were tied up.

The hired knights, once they have been investigated, will feed and expel roadblocks and food unless there are charges to be tried in particular, Gordon declared.

The knights of the stream became quiet, knowing that their lives would be saved.

My uncle Critope Zarkos was pulled together.

"Gordon.

I don't think I can do this to my uncle.

I apologize for taking the liberty when you were away.

Untie me first. "

It is not the utterance of the person who behaved like a rebellion itself.

This man insults Gordon Zarkos as a sweet person.

"Uncle.

You once did not like that my father succeeded his lord, and you raised a soldier against the fate of his predecessor, his grandfather.

As a result, the ministers of my realm fought each other, and as many as seven lives were lost.

You were helped by a vow never to speak to politics and that you and your descendants would renounce the right of inheritance of the Zarkos main house.

The sin of breaking that oath is heavy.

I can't atone for anything but death. "

To Gordon's harsh words, Kritop blued his face and tried to spit more sweet words, but Gordon Zarkos' battlehammer smashed his head.

The courtyard was quiet.

I wouldn't have thought that Gordon would be back so soon, either, Critope.

I should have traveled far away from Maisian rumors.

Even though Kritop is supposed to keep his mouth shut in the management of the territory, it is a promise within the Zarkos family and not a matter for his subjects or the inhabitants to be able to do so.

Whatever it is, it doesn't make any difference that it is the direct family of the Zarkos.

If we remain in the position of substantial lords, even in a forceful way, it will eventually be in the right form.

That's what time works for.

Even if not, if Gordon's return had been delayed a little longer, the heartfelt minister could have been expelled or murdered.

Well done. I just got back.

If I hadn't stopped by Linz, I wouldn't have known about Maisian affairs.

I stopped by Linz because I guided the people of the Zoi clan to Engdal, and I met the people of the Zoi clan because I helped Doriatessa.

And if it were just Bardo, Gordon and Cars, I couldn't have struck down the castle more vividly.

Things are connected in a mundane way, and what you've done for one is helping this one in the end.

There's an interesting thing about traveling there, the subtlety of living, Bardo thought.
