9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 158
Episode 158
Episode 62. Subjugation Subjugation Subjugation (2)
“The next subjugation area is the Jetten region.”
A day later, Yuma visited the cellove unit and informed them of the schedule. Jetten is the estate of the Zach family, and Yuma deliberately chose it.
It was to show Catherine and the knights of the Zach family how the actual battle of subjugation of demons proceeded.
“When Lady Catherine and the knights of the Zach family look at you and look like a little bitch… you know?”
The crew immediately realized what Yuma meant.
In the middle of the imperial capital, their status was piercing the sky. However, in the eyes of noble knights, they still look like lucky commoners.
It was necessary to flatten their noses.
Members were more focused on training than ever before. Sleep and rest were minimized, but the lack of stamina was supplemented by requesting supplements at the top.
In the meantime, I didn’t forget to look for a stupid newcomer who had just joined.
It’s only been a day, but I’ve been looking under these eyes. There was not even a hint of blood to be found on his pale face.
Yuma visited the newly built mansion of the Zach family.
Although the items that Duran destroyed did not come back, it was felt that a huge amount of money had been spent on the mansion at a glance.
Various strong castle magics in preparation for shock and terror were engraved throughout the mansion, and even the overall appearance became more luxurious.
‘It’s so splendid that it can’t be pushed even compared to the Imperial Palace.’
As Yuma approached, the gatekeepers bowed their heads and opened the gate.
Now that he was a baron and even Heize had been sent to the other world, there were no nobles who would recklessly chew on Yuma.
Yuma passed by the garden and saw a man and approached him.
Hazel Jack. He was the one who tried to fool Yuma the day he saved Natalie by committing a terrorist attack in the past.
“Haisle.”
When Yuma smiled and approached, Heisl jumped up from her seat in embarrassment.
Heisl was a nobleman, but without a title. Compared to Yuma, the status is the same, but the social status is incomparably lower.
“Yes yes. Baron.”
He was a commoner not too long ago, but now he has become a person who has to use honorific titles all the time.
Hazel bowed her head toward Yuma, hiding her misery.
“Do you still have maids to look after you?”
“No, sir. No…
“Be careful. It seems that Lady Catherine still doesn’t know what you’re doing.”
Yuma left behind Heizel, who was as stiff as a stone statue, and moved into the mansion.
In the sunny hall of the mansion, Randell and Catherine were drinking tea.
“miss. I’m here to inform you that the next subjugation area for the Sellove troops is the Jetten region.”
Catherine turned her head in surprise at the voice of Yuma, who suddenly came and brought up the main topic without saying hello.
Catherine smiled awkwardly and looked at Yuma.
Now that guy is a noble.
After Yuma became a baron, Duran fanned Catherine every day to seduce Yuma.
Catherine had been
having trouble sleeping lately, trying to avoid her father, who would bring up the word ‘marriage’ every time he opened his eyes.
Actually, I didn’t hate it when my father made a fuss about Yuma’s marriage. He is no longer a commoner.
But doesn’t Yuma have Natalie?
“…Baron Drake. Now, you don’t have to come in person to announce that.”
“Ahh! Miss, just talk like you normally do. Why are you doing that inconsistently?”
Catherine had called him that on purpose to see Yuma’s reaction. After becoming a noble, he was worried that the distance between himself and Yuma might have changed.
“friend! Lately, my father has been talking to Katherine and you-”
Randell was speechless. It’s because Catherine stamped Randall’s instep with her shoe. Randell blew air into both cheeks and endured the pain.
“Isn’t it? I get it anyway
Thank you for coming to inform me in advance. Can I attend as well as last time?”
“yes. This time, I made sure to do my research. There is no need to fall into the trap set by the Orcs like in Anten. Let me show you the actual subjugation of the cellove troops so that the knights of the Jetten Territory can learn.”
Yuma showed no signs of leaving the mansion after only announcing the purpose and schedule. Katherine wanted to tell her to sit down and have a cup of tea and talk, but she couldn’t get out of her mouth easily.
In the end, when Yuma just left, Katherine looked at the inside of the teacup with a sullen face.
* * * For two weeks, Igor experienced various spaces where he could experience ‘blood’ by the seniors of the cello unit.
From slaughterhouses to hospitals and morgues to illegal underground dumping grounds.
Regardless of whether Igor screamed or fainted, the crew were frantic to defeat his blood phobia.
You might think it’s a bit harsh, but it’s not at all.
The cellove unit is a group that subjugates demon caves.
The Devil’s Cave was as dangerous and horrifying as the battlefield. One mistake could cause multiple casualties, so everyone had to keep their senses as sharp as a well-honed knife.
There was no need for a newcomer who was afraid of blood in front of a monster.
The Sellove unit was a group that thought that only those who were tougher and stronger than monsters could survive.
“Igor.”
“ancient!”
At the call of Aquin, the commander of the subjugation unit, this Gorga shook his head and answered. It was a very well-armed look.
Fortunately, Igor was a very adaptable human being.
In the first week, he said he would go crazy at the sight of blood, and went on a rampage or passed out, but after that, he showed signs of defeating his phobia little by little.
The seniors were also opening their hearts to him while rolling and craving Igor.
Even if the seniors’ persecution and abuse continued, as soon as the training was over, Igor smiled and cleaned the seniors’ equipment.
How on earth can there be such a simple, stupid, and kind human being ᅪ–.
Geisel, the highest ranking officer, saw Igor like that and gave him the nickname ‘kind troll’.
“I’m still afraid of the blood…
” No! The terrible blood I have is only the blood shed by my comrades because of my immaturity!”
Igor’s eyes that answered like that were indescribably bright.
A natural-born giant master-level spearman idiot. He eventually overcame the blood phobia caused by the brainwashing of Jailism within two weeks.
“good. Tomorrow, I will take the baron and the captain and go to subdue the devil’s cave in the Zetton region. can you do it?”
“You can!”
“good. Well, back when I was blood phobic, I tried to stage a kidnapping by robbing the baron’s carriage.”
Aquin had heard that Igor had attacked the carriage carrying Zishka in the past.
“haha. At that time, the doctrine of Jailism was much more important than blood phobia.”
“Anyway, I’m looking forward to seeing what you’ll show at the subjugation site.”
Aquin now overcame the timid personality he had developed while being persecuted as Miryak and showed himself quite like a commander.
The next day, the cellove troops began to advance. Before departing, Yuma ordered Natalie to research a list of nobles who were in liaison with Kantra.
The new headquarters of the Rose Society was not yet completed, but
intelligence activities were possible because of the ‘Morning Star’.
It took us a week on horseback to Jetten.
Yuma’s tulka moved at the speed of the horse. By the time Yuma and Catherine Selov’s troops arrived, the knights of the Zetton estate came out to meet them.
As Jetten was the domain of the Zach family, there were no serious demon caves. Most of them were resting places.
The unit stayed overnight at the lord’s castle and set off to subdue the demon cave at the southern end of Jetten. It was a small demon den where orcs, trolls, and wolves often haunted.
The knights of Jetten had been secretly resentful of Catherine since last night when the party arrived.
It is true that there was some loss in the process of subjugating the monsters that occurred in the territory last time, but it was a shame to bring in outside forces.
‘It’s been a while since the devil.’
Yuma felt as if he had come out of the demon cave rather than subjugation. To Yuma, who had slaughtered hundreds of orcs alone, such a small demon cave did not even look like a demon cave.
Yuma was just going to look directly at the characteristics of the cellove unit’s real battle and the phenomenon itself called ‘Magul’.
“Knights of the family, keep an eye on their subjugation. Although there are few monsters in our territory, it is not nonexistent.”
“Yes, lady.”
The answer was yes, but the knights always had sullen faces.
Every cave, large or small, was a bizarre space surrounded by unpleasant darkness.
Most of the knights have dealt with monsters that have protruded from the devil’s den, but few have directly experienced the devil’s den.
“Knights. The unfamiliar sensation felt in the cave must be shaken off by force. If you focus on that unpleasant sensation, you often miss the voices of the monsters.”
The knights hung around listening to Aquin’s explanation.
“If the knights are at the same level as our captain or Yuma-sama, it’s okay if you don’t listen. Just hit me and it’s over. If not, please listen.”
“Oh is that so? But there are rumors that you are from Miryak… You speak profane words so confidently.”
Catherine listened in silence to see how Yuma came out.
“hey.”
When Yuma lowered his voice, the knights turned their heads in shock.
It wasn’t just the knights who were surprised. It was the same with Cellov’s unit and Catherine.
“Why do people have so little conscience? Do you think we came to teach you the subjugation method because time is running out? These bastards… they’re all crazy. Can’t you hear me right?”
“This is the demon cave, is this your courtyard? Do you fold your back? Did you know that if all of you die here, you can just be treated as a warrior during the subjugation?”
It was Duran Jacques language.
The knights bowed their heads, unable to answer. When he said that, Yuma’s eyes were burning with life, so he couldn’t answer.
Besides, isn’t he a baron now?
Yuma glared at the pathetic bastard for a moment before sighing.
“Hmm. Yuma Our knights don’t seem to like that I brought you guys. It’s like how they openly react to me with a cold face… Is it because everyone is stuck in the manor?”
This time, Catherine lashed out at the knights with vicious language.
The knights were in the middle of being shamed for nothing after building their pride once.
“Igor!”
“yes! Miss Yuma!”
“Today’s subjugation, you stand in the forefront. Please tell the stupid Riddle who knows nothing about how much she is a rookie at Shelob.”
“ancient!”
From the time he first arrived in Jeton, Igor had attracted the attention of the knights.
It’s obviously the strongest-looking giant except for the leader of the subjugation, Zeka, but for some reason, he’s being treated as the youngest.
Igor gripped his huge spear and quickly established himself at the head of the ranks.
