9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 112
Episode 112
Episode 47. Bride of Hugo (8)
A long silence ensued. It wasn’t a bad atmosphere.
It wouldn’t be strange if someone gave Zishka a face, saying, “What kind of bullshit was that?” But no one said anything.
As Marlon said, where else could a woman in the Worgs be as bold as this? Of course, the members were not moved by Zishka’s words and actions.
It was so absurd that it was difficult to choose what to answer, so he was silent.
“…Captain Hugo is in the bath?”
“You must have sensed the commotion, so you should be out soon.”
It was a long way to the bathroom. It wasn’t that the grandmaster couldn’t feel the noise in the hall.
‘Now we have to wait for Hugo’s judgment. It’s a mountain beyond a mountain.’
It was embarrassing and difficult to introduce the imperial princess as his wife. It was something that could be understood just by looking at the members’ reactions.
But the real problem was different.
That she would soon become a fugitive who lost her honor, not a normal princess of the empire. It was a matter that did not require much time for the imperial castle to secure Yoheim’s evidence.
‘How am I supposed to tell Hugo about this?
It was a problem that I had been thinking about and worrying about all the time I rode the carriage. It wasn’t enough to bring the princess of the empire as his wife, in fact, she was about to die, so she had to ask for protection.
No matter how much I thought about it, it seemed impossible to wrap up Zishka’s situation. This is something that no answer comes out even if you put gold on the language and talk about it.
“Everyone go back to your seats! When the boss comes, he will judge.”
Marlon shouted and the siege was lifted. As the swarming general members returned to their respective positions, the sight opened. I felt like I could catch my breath as well.
The silence in the hall also disappeared. Inside the Worg Wolf, the atmosphere became noisy again. The members were busy moving.
Some of the members who were still off duty moved to the shade of the outer wall and glared at the group. It was a cold gaze tinged with blatant hostility.
Neither Yugire nor Malone could block that line of sight.
“You look hot.”
Yuma sighed and said. Simply saying hot was not enough. I didn’t know that Zishka would introduce himself like that.
“If I could die anyway, shouldn’t I be the most like myself at the end?”
“While you’re shouting like that, a commoner like me cares about the life… I’m so happy I don’t know what to do.”
I said it sarcastically, but Yuma was smiling. Either way, the results weren’t bad.
Yugire watched the two of them, then moved toward a large steel chair in the middle of the main building. It was to wait for Hugo.
“I do not know. Why don’t you take the princess and leave right now?
Before the boss comes out.”
Marlon let out a sigh.
She shook her head and brushed her hair roughly. It was a habit that came out when I was extremely nervous.
“Because the circumstances are the circumstances. How can you not use your strength to Captain Hugo?”
“Let’s not talk. Crazy guy… No, the princess’s house is also a bit… Ha.”
For over 10 minutes, Marlon persuaded Yuma. Marlon’s rhetoric could not stop Yuma. After another five minutes, Marlon, breaking out in a cold sweat, tried to force Yuma away.
“I don’t want to get my friend’s body out of here!”
“why. If I die, I’ll take the Ascalon right away.”
Yuma responded with a joke, but sensed a muffled aura from far away. Marlon was the same.
At that moment, the two men made eye contact and swallowed a gulp. Zishka didn’t have the flair of a high-level swordsman, but he could tell from the atmosphere that Hugo was approaching.
Hugo strode towards the steel chair. It is just walking, but anyone who has seen it in person will be able to feel it.
The power felt in that gigantic body. The power itself that can’t be trusted even in the human realm.
Yugi Le moved his mouth eagerly as Hugo sat down on the steel chair.
In a slurred tone, the situation up until now. In other words, they were announcing that Yuma had brought a bride. The turmoil between the Black Wolves and Yuma occurred in the process.
Hugo sat with his chin resting on his chin and listened to Yugire without changing his expression. The group watched the scene with their nerves on edge.
After hearing all of Yugiir’s explanation, Hugo raised his arms as thick as those of a giant tree and thumped his hands.
Whoa, whoa…!
It was not a sound that could be made by clapping. It sounded like the ringing of a large bell filled with iron.
Marlon’s expression hardened.
“God damn it, good luck.”
That was the method Hugo used to summon all the Worg members inside the main building. In an instant, everyone except for the guards gathered in front of Hugo and started lining up.
It was spectacular. That many people lined up in an instant.
The members stood on both sides of the steel chair in a relaxed posture, precisely aligned with each other. Hugo looked down at his men without a shirt on, revealing his steam engine-like muscles.
“There is no such thing as a king… He is indeed a fearsome man.”
Zishka said, sweating from his brow.
“Can you twist it?”
“It will twist.”
The two of them moved slowly in front of the steel chair.
While walking, Yuma realized that Hugo’s gaze was exuding tremendous pressure. The closer I got to the steel chair Hugo was sitting on, the stronger the gravity felt.
It didn’t feel like it, it really was.
Hugo’s energy was shooting through the members lined up on either side.
Yuma, a high-ranking sword master, was under enough pressure to endure.
However, Zishka only learned a little swordsmanship and taijutsu for culture, and was not a warrior.
“Ugh…
Zishka hesitated and struggled from the point about 100 meters away from Hugo. It was a natural result, unless it was a warrior who had achieved at least a sword expert. The two paused for a moment.
It was unreasonable for even well-trained warriors to directly receive Hugo’s energy.
“Yuma.”
Hugo’s gaze shifted to Yuma. I was 100 meters away, but I could hear it clearly as if I was talking right next to me.
“Yes, Mr. Hugo.”
Yuma also answered in his usual tone. If you put your superhuman senses on edge, you would hear it as if you were talking right next to you.
“Explain why you brought the imperial princess as your wife.”
As soon as he heard that, Yuma cleared his chest inwardly. The worst situation in which Hugo immediately erupts in anger with a huge shredder is avoided.
Hugo was more calm than expected. It was the same when he accepted Marlon, who first visited the Worgs and knocked out the gatekeeper, and also when he met Yuma. He was not a thin person.
What should be the answer? Yuma thought for a moment about the character Hugo. The world’s strongest ogre slayer Black Wolf Lone human geek.
The keyword geek was important.
The strongest superhumans like Duran and Hugo were bound to be eccentrics. The standards of geeks had many strange corners.
“Can’t the imperial princess be Hugo’s bride?”
“Not so.”
“Hugo-sama’s subordinates rushed to kill poor Zishka.”
“A woman is yet to become my bride. There is no need for the Worgs to protect you.”
“There is no need to threaten the bride-to-be whom we have been finding so hard to fulfill the contract. I have come to fulfill my contract with Mr. Hugo.”
“Okay, I’ll admit that. Then don’t ask the question again. Why did the imperial princess come all this way to become my bride?”
In the end, I have no choice but to explain.
She said that she had been drugged and committed treason not long ago, and that she would be executed as soon as this fact was revealed. The empire would probably pursue her to the end of the world and kill her. So, I want you to be my bride and protect me.
Oh Mr! How do you say this! To the extent that my conscience grows hairy. It was embarrassing to say the least, even for Yuma, who prides himself on being brash to some extent.
But Hugo had the right to know and Yuma had the duty to speak. Besides, Hugo had already shown considerable leniency.
Look at the members who tried to kill Zishka as soon as she revealed that she was the princess. In fact, Hugo’s mild reaction was also a virtue.
“Hmmmm, that…
It was something that couldn’t be wrapped anyway. Zishka’s personal details. Yuma let out a deep sigh and strained his eyes.
Let’s just say it cool! Maybe Hugo prefers women with stories and dangers! How many such men are there in the world!
“To you now… is a woman’s past so important!?”
…Still, I decided to try one more time. There are many men in the world who like women with a lot of stories, but there is no guarantee that one of them will be Hugo. In addition, the story was also a story.
I thought it would be better to use a group and play a raw game.
“She has a flawless appearance, but her body is perfect without any extra flesh. Her status is a princess, and her dowry is going to be enormous. She is clever and intelligent. What is more important? What better bride could there be than this?”
As for the dowry, he had to ask Hella to secretly siphon off the imperial treasury. There was also a way to solve the problem with the money of the Puang Merchants first and then ask Hella for interest.
“Besides, I think you are strong enough to embrace Hugo-sama! Where else would you get a woman like this? Just don’t ask, take it!”
Before returning, you grew old alone all your life, and then you were betrayed by Kagor and died! So don’t hesitate and take it! I swallowed the afterword. What happened before the return was needless to say a hundred days.
Even though he did this, he couldn’t help it when asked about his damn past and why. Then I had to be honest and wait for Hugo’s disposition.
A moment of silence followed. Hugo pursed his lips and widened his eyes. It wasn’t clear whether he was laughing or angry.
“It’s still a long barn. good night. I won’t ask.”
“oh! Are you accepting me as your bride?”
“Yes.”
Things are going so well. Yuma tilted her head and looked at Hugo. Was your desire to get a wife more urgent than you thought?
“But not just. I won’t ask, so the woman will also have to pass the test I give. Woman, go through this and prove your worth to me.”
It can’t be either It wasn’t very unexpected. No matter how hard Yuma tried, it was not a problem that would be solved easily and quickly, like roasting beans in a flash of lightning.
Whether it was the princess of the Empire or the princess of Magic, she couldn’t become Hugo’s bride without any conditions. In particular, if it was the imperial princess, it was absolutely necessary to have a minimum justification that could be recognized by all of the Black Wolves.
‘Maybe they’ll give you a difficult test.
Only then will the members be able to understand.’
But this one was better.
Rather than bragging about Zishka’s past.
“great! What test are you planning to give?”
“Twelve hours.”
“yes?”
“I’ll give you twelve hours from now.
Woman, walk in it and come before me.”
