9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 126
Episode 126
Episode 52. The strongest (1)
“What the hell are you talking about…
It was a development that the empress could not have imagined at all. The kidnapped first daughter is coming to the imperial castle with Hugo. Even with the Jacques family’s chairman procession accompanying them. With cheers from the people of the capital city.
They said that Yuma was also riding on a pair of ancient wolves. It was clear why Yuma, who had left the capital with two prostitutes, returned with Jisuka.
The Empress realized that the current situation was Yuma’s fault. That commoner boy had a proper accident this time. It was to the point where the last gateway terrorism was regarded as a cute prank.
Is it a dark corporation under the lamp? The Empress pressed her forehead with her fingers. A headache came. It’s hard to even think of Winslting’s treason of summoning demons, but suddenly the first daughter got married and came back.
“Special Commander.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
In the corner of the audience room, the special commissioner appeared.
The head of the imperial family’s special task force was also dumbfounded. Not too long ago, 80% of the Imperial family’s special lease was used to find the whereabouts of Zishka.
How many people have been spied on to find the person involved in the kidnapping of Zishka. The deaths of Camel Driss and Lan Grey also left many unknowns.
It was also difficult to prevent the spread of rumors about Yoheim and to manipulate public opinion. The Imperial Household Special Entrusted Team, including herself, hadn’t had any time to sleep lately.
A group of iron men who have passed high-intensity special training.
These days, the dark circles under their eyes never disappear.
Everyone had been hit by work to such an extent that their faces were sunken and their hair was frizzy like straw.
Still, nothing came to light.
But what kind of unexpected news is this? The special commissioner felt incompetent for no reason.
“When you said you were going to bring Yuma, I agreed to allow it. It looks like they got Zishka out by disguising herself as a prostitute.”
“No, Your Majesty. This is a division that happened because of my carelessness for not taking proper measures in advance.”
“Lord Duran…. would fool me.”
The empress judged that there was no way that the Zach family was involved in Yuma’s accident. The Empress remembered Duran, who had come to visit her frantically a few days ago.
Come to think of it, Duran at that time was somehow strange. As we talked, I could feel the hesitation of a child who was lying.
I thought it was because I was so angry because of Yoheim that my tone of voice had changed, but that wasn’t the case. He was a man who couldn’t lie well.
It was a meaningless story now. The procession of Yuma and Zishka had already passed Hale Square.
“ha.”
Countless people have already seen Zishka and Hugo sitting side by side. I also saw the Zac family forming a procession of the chairman. Among them, Yuma, a commoner, is also riding an ancient wolf.
The Empress had to make a choice.
Whether to punish the prodigal son with death or to hear the story first.
If he chose the former, he had to fight Hugo unconditionally, and if he chose the latter, there was no chance to mend the relationship between Zizka and Hugo.
I didn’t like either.
Even if Hugo was a grandmaster, he wasn’t afraid to go head-to-head with him. In Hale, there were many strong people waiting, including the same Grand Master, Duran.
However, if Hugo and Hugo fought in the middle of the imperial capital, countless innocent people would die.
“I’m going to have to talk to my daughter and the bratty boy.”
The Empress chose the latter. Not only with Zishka, but also with Yuma and the Ogre Slayer, he had many things to say. The Empress once called Duran Jacques.
Coincidentally, he was in the middle of reviewing documents in the office of the Imperial Commander-in-Chief in the Hwangseong For the first time in a while.
“Lord Duran played a very funny prank.”
Duran got down on one knee and sat down.
“Your Majesty, I didn’t mean to lie…
“Say no more.”
“I’m sorry, Your Majesty.”
“How can you say that you deceived me!”
The furious Empress stood up from her throne and shouted. The eunuchs standing outside shrugged their shoulders, fearing that it might become a spark.
“Your Majesty, I don’t have the confidence to explain this situation in an elegant way. If you give me a sin, I will accept it. I just want to tell you one thing.”
The Empress did not answer and shuddered.
“It is true that I and my disciple were responsible for stealing poor Zishka.
And I decided that it was the way for Your Majesty. I have nothing more to say.”
The Empress suppressed her anger and chose her answer.
Why the hell did this loyal and solid human being make such a judgment? What do you mean he wanted to inform me even while deceiving me?
Joachim.
The Empress instantly remembered the name and took a deep breath. It was a fact that even the empress knew that the tragedy in Joheim was planned by Winslting and executed by Zishka.
But knowing all that, why didn’t I get Winslting right? What kind of existence is the Empress of the Empire? I felt dizzy. In an instant, my eyes widened.
Duran hurriedly jumped up and supported the empress with both hands.
“…Now Hugo is coming here with Zishka and Prince Duran’s apprentice.”
The Empress opened her eyes and glared at Duran. Duran was sweating profusely and eagerly avoided the Empress’ gaze.
“If I don’t like the outcome of this prank situation, you’ll have to kill them yourself.”
It meant taking responsibility. It was the first time the empress had pushed Duran this far.
“I understand, Your Majesty.”
Meanwhile, the news of Zishka’s return reached Winslting, who was strolling in the garden of the imperial annex.
Varys jumped up and reported to him. He ran so hastily that he was wearing casual clothes and not even carrying a sword.
Winslting was looking at the pond where the body of Zishka’s attendant had been thrown.
“grandee! grandee! Something must be laid up! Poor Zishka… is back with Hugo Yuma!”
Upon receiving the report, Winslting merely looked at the pond.
“I guess so. It’s my fault for believing that I would become a warlock after listening to Heize’s words.”
Winslting took Varys into the annex. Inside the annex stood several knights of the Imperial Guard who were in charge of escorting Winslting.
“Sir Milina Spaser, tie up Sir Barris Cannon. right now.”
“What a grand duke!”
The storm flower, Milina Spazer, was a knight that the Empress herself attached to Winslting. Originally an escort for Zishka, Milina was also a knight competing for the highest rank in the Royal Family Knight Certificate.
The empress had attached Milina to Winslting under the pretext of strengthening her escort. But in reality, it was not to escort, but to keep an eye on him.
Milina drew her sword without questioning or questioning Winslting about Varys’ guilt. She was a knight who despised Varys very much.
It is because I recognized the opportunistic temperament.
“grandee! Why are you like this! grandee!”
There were even rumors that Milina’s strength was superior to that of Randel Zach with her twin swords. Even if he was armed, Varys could not be Milina’s opponent.
Varys could not resist properly and was subdued by Milina.
“grandee! grandee!”
“Sir Milina, shut Sir Barris’s mouth. My ears hurt.”
Milina hit Barris on the chin with a pommel. Varys’s teeth, which had been implanted with magical healing, fell to the floor.
The blessings and cheers of the people continued toward Jischka, Hugo, and Yuma.
Yuma fixed her eyes on the imperial castle that began to appear in front of her.
By now, news should have reached not only the Empress, but also Winslting Varys.
Of course, it was only natural that the top of Puang was also upset.
“Why, every time Yuma-sama comes back… it seems like there is an uproar in the capital.”
Puang said softly. The other time, lower Hella came to hide his identity, and this time it was Yuma with lower Zishka.
“Iknow, right.”
Cindy was also in the midst of losing her pride as a member of the imperial family’s special assignment. Working in the same guild and closely monitoring them, yet they missed such a big event. I had nothing to say.
Cindy was worried about whether she should report the relationship between Hella and Yuma to the imperial family even now.
Yuma heard from Katherine and knew that Hayes had left the capital on vacation a while ago. If Hayes was absent, it would be more difficult for the people to kill them to come up with countermeasures.
‘I have to block the hole through which they escape or escape.’
Yuma called Catherine at the front of the chairman’s procession.
“When we arrive at the imperial castle, the procession of the chairman will end. Lady, please go back to Zach Street and bribe the newsletter salesmen. Please spread the news of low Zishka’s royal wedding to the whole world right away.”
“i get it. What are you going to do now?”
“Wouldn’t His Majesty be troubled? haha. Please take Natalie. If you’re with Rose Hoeju, you’ll look even worse. And…
“It must be the story of Zach ordering the knights to stop the escape of those who don’t know what might happen. You can tell without telling me that much.”
Catherine was a smart person.
Even during the terror attack at the gateway, she grasped the atmosphere at a glance, and this time, she came out of the gateway directly every day to inform Yuma of the situation.
Yuma smiled again feeling deep gratitude and affection for Catherine.
Catherine also had something to say to Yuma. It was
‘live and come back’ .
So far, things have worked out somehow, but the empress’ decision still remains. It was unknown whether the Empress would ever forgive Yuma.
But Catherine didn’t say anything and just shook her head.
It was enough for Zach to make everyone help Yuma so that he didn’t have to say ‘live and come back’.
“Stop!”
The royal guards at the entrance of the imperial castle raised their spears and blocked the procession of the chairman. The imperial guards were completely different from the garrison.
They were not less empowered to be nervous about the parade of unreported officers like the garrison.
Randell lowered the Zach family flag.
“Zach is all knights! Return to the family! Call me a sword!”
chuck!
The swords of the knights were raised all at once towards the sky. The chairman’s procession disbanded moderately and quickly. The guards who heard the title ‘lower’ also hurriedly raised their spears and bowed to Zishka.
The guards did not know why Jishka, who had no record of entering and leaving the outside, appeared outside the castle. Why is the dress the way it is? The woman in front of him was definitely the first princess.
It was not the job of the guards to block the visits of the royal family or to inquire into the personal details of the companions. They removed the spears and opened the entrance to the imperial castle.
“let’s go.”
The party left the ancient wolf in the garden and headed for the throne room. Everyone in the imperial castle stared at the strange combination of Yuma Jishka and Hugo.
It was strange, but the majesty was immense. Disciple of the King of Knights, the Imperial Princess Ogre Slayer. Even the nobles and eunuchs who secretly looked down on Yuma when he visited the imperial castle had no choice but to lower their eyes.
