9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 174
Episode 174
Episode 66. Ballinan Fovian (4)
Ballinan possessed a smile as if he knew what Yuma wanted. It was like watching a mischievous spirit.
As Yuma looked at him pitifully, Val Renann suddenly chanted a spell in a mysterious voice.
After the short spell, ‘Taro Woon’, a wind spirit in the shape of a falcon, appeared next to him.
“East! There is no one in this empire who knows the East better than I do. The place where I was born is the East. I’m a spirit sage
The only spiritist in the world who signed a contract with the spirit king Igmeseus.”
Yuma shifted her gaze to Taroun.
If it’s a spirit, I’ve seen Kaiente, the highest spirit of light, not too long ago. It’s the first time I’ve seen it, but it wasn’t even strange to see an intermediate spirit like Taroun.
Taroun perched lightly on Ballinan’s shoulder like a well-tamed falcon.
Ballinan seemed to be talking to Taroun for a moment in an unknown, mysterious voice.
“What are you curious about in the East?”
“entire.”
“why?”
“I’m going to the east soon.”
“Everything. Do you want to be the emperor of the East because you are not full of surnames as a noble of the empire?”
That wouldn’t be too bad, but Yuma had other things to do.
To kill Amanzo, the demon god, and to prepare for the dragon horse war.
If you’re lucky, you might be able to meet Lagatino Rollmandi and learn the decisive battle of the Rollmandy family.
Ballinan thought that it was interesting, and carefully examined Yuma’s atmosphere. I had no idea that Yuma was interested in Touhou.
Then there’s more I can give you.
Thinking so, Ballinan began to think about what the wonderful man in front of him might want from the East.
“Baron Drake. Can I call you Yuma?”
“Call me whatever you want. If I call you Yuma, my title for you will also change to ‘kid’.”
“Okay, Yuma. If you make me the head of the Povian family, I can give you the East.”
“You just pick and choose crazy things.
How are you?”
“It’s because I’m a contractor of the King of Spirits.”
Saying that, Ballinan even stretched out her chest triumphantly.
Yuma was so cute that he almost laughed, but he straightened up.
“Ha, that’s right. Then you will be the emperor of the east. Leave things like the head of the Povian family aside.”
“I thought so, but as expected, I wanted to defeat my father with magic. Being an emperor might be boring.”
Yuma somehow remembered Igor while talking with Barlinan.
From Yuma’s point of view, Balinan was no different from Igor. If you look right, it meant that you would come to your senses.
However, it was frustrating to not be able to beat up Barinan, who was both a lover and a great aristocrat, like Igor.
“I don’t know what it is, Spirit King Igmeseuson, but how are you going to prove it? Should I summon the spirit king or the energy king right away?”
“Hmm. Ig’s authority didn’t work on you, so you can think so. need proof. But what I am going to use on you is the power of the Spirit King, which neither dragons nor ogres can do.”
Even Yuma was certain that the thing that forced her to breathe for a second was a power that far transcended the realm of magic.
“Anyway, you’re saying you can’t summon?”
“I can do it, but… if I call it this far, my vitality will be cut too much. I hope you understand. I swear by Dobiaf, the sun and chariot god, that I am a contractor of the Spirit King.”
“Okay then, why did the Spirit King sign a contract with you? From my point of view, you are nothing more than a spoiled aristocratic kid.”
For a while, as if Yuma, who was expressing himself that way, was dying of laughter, Ballinan held his stomach and giggled.
“Haha… Have you ever heard of my grandfather, Radion Fovian?”
If it was Radion Fovian, it was a person Yuma knew.
When I heard about Hudin from Cahel, I unintentionally found out a secret of the Povian family.
“It is impossible not to know the best mage after Archmage Risol.”
“My grandfather traveled to the East when he was young. You really liked the east. At the time, Yig was in a crisis for some reason, but my father must have helped me with it. This is a story I heard directly from Ig.”
It was also in the east that Radion brought Hudin. A wizard of the century, the age of Radion Povian, could have had a relationship with the Spirit King.
‘But why is Radion and the Spirit King’s relationship unrelated to a kid who can’t even use this magic… Hmm.’
Yuma asked about it several times, but Ballinan only replied that he didn’t know that much. It didn’t sound like a lie.
Yuma decided to have a closer relationship with Ballinan. But a test was needed.
At first, I didn’t like Ballinan’s approach, but it was a waste of time to keep pushing him away for that reason.
Moreover, it seemed that Ballinan had an infinite liking for himself.
During his decades of service as a eunuch, he learned to distinguish between real and fake crushes.
But the problem was not liking.
Yuma really didn’t have the confidence to make him the head of the Povian family.
It was meaningless if you couldn’t meet the other person’s requirements even if you approached him first with a good impression.
“Whether you can give me Dongbang or Kyle, it’s impossible to make you the head of the Povian family. Your brothers are so competitive. Are there any other requirements besides that?”
“doesn’t exist.”
“Then let’s pretend we didn’t meet today.”
Yuma turned around and started walking.
“Wait a minute! Don’t go like that!”
“why? I can’t meet your needs Wouldn’t it be better to pretend we haven’t heard about the steamy conversations between each other?”
When Yuma really showed signs of leaving, Ballinan panicked and stopped Yuma.
However, there was no way that Ballinan’s weak grip could handle Yuma’s steps.
Yuma didn’t look back and ignored Ballinan.
“Ah! don’t go! Talk to me more!”
After taking a few steps like that, Valie Nunn almost grabbed Yuma by the crotch of her pants and dragged her. It was an ugly appearance that said that it didn’t matter what the members of the great aristocrats were.
mess.
Every time Yuma’s legs moved, Ballinan’s body swayed like a weak wave.
I couldn’t go outside with this thing on my ankle, and
I couldn’t kick it in the head and blow it away.
“If Sir Adol sees this, I don’t know if he will try to kill me or you.”
“I don’t know! I want to be friends with you! Yuma No brother! Stop and talk!”
“You crazy kid. Where did you leave the pride and pride of a great aristocrat…
“No, no! Where is the pride in the Povian family? A word like pride only suits a wonderful person like you!”
tall.
Yuma stopped and turned to look at Ballinan, who was holding her ankle.
Ballinan sighed heavily, as if it was quite difficult to hold on to Yuma. Somehow, seeing that figure, Yuma’s heart seemed to weaken.
After all, Ballinan is also still a child.
Although he is only one year older than Yuma now, considering the actual age of Yuma, he will be a child for decades.
“Ugh! I won’t talk about asking you to make a family head!”
“Good after. what more to say? Ballinan.”
When Yuma acted as if she would listen to her story, Ballinan stood up and roughly brushed off the dust from her clothes.
“For now, please be friendly with me. i want to be like you I have confidence in that heart today.”
“Okay, I get it. It’s not that difficult.”
widely.
Then Yuma lightly slapped Ballinan on the back of the neck, knocking him out.
With a well-controlled strike so as not to damage his neckbone.
It felt like my mind wouldn’t be able to handle the fatigue if I continued to talk with this idiot.
Of course, it wasn’t that Yuma was mindlessly treating Ballinan.
‘The son of Adol Povian, who can’t use magic, was a contractor for the King of Spirits.
As Yuma left the gambling hall, he began to think about how to use the Ballinan.
If he gave up on his vain dream of becoming the head of the Povian family, he would be no different from a pumpkin that had been rolled into the vine.
* * * After that, Yuma spent a month frantically checking his forces for a while.
It was the end of the year. Throughout Hale Street, songs wishing for the end of the year to pass safely and a new beginning to be happy were resounding.
From the top of Puang and Jacques Gaudz to the cello unit, the Rose Society and the Black Wolf. Before leaving for the East, it was necessary to adjust the flow of all those forces.
Originally, even without Yuma going to Jacques, Catherine was going to roll well on her own, but Catherine eventually decided to accompany Yuma on his journey to the east. “Master. Who will act as hostess to the Jacques while Lady Catherine is gone?”
“I do it, disciple.”
Yuma sighed and called out Tel Zac and Catherine separately.
If it was Itel Jacques with a calm personality, he seemed to be able to capture his unique variables well, if not as well as Catherine.
The funds of the Puang Merchant to support the Woods family were managed by the eunuch Arantino.
That competent eunuch would secure Haiwan’s gambling funds, sometimes rigidly and sometimes competently.
A special instruction was given to Jeka, who would manage the cellove unit.
In future subjugation of demons, use the authority of the imperial arsenal to accompany the wizard.
It was to find a clue to the dragon horse war.
The Rose Society and the Black Wolves had Natalie and Zishka, so Yuma had nothing to worry about.
One thing I was worried about was Marlon. Yuma hoped that he would follow the control of Zishka and Hugo well until the troublemaker grew properly.
Rumors had already spread throughout Hale that Yuma was preparing to travel to the East.
Yuma didn’t bother hiding that fact.
The nobles, who feared Yuma, felt much more at ease after hearing the news these days.
After becoming one of the most influential people in the empire, he traveled to the east right away, which was crazy anyway.
“Cog.”
“Yes, Yuma-sama.”
“You and Igor go to the East with me. Are you okay?”
“You don’t have to ask if it’s okay. Of course you should follow.
I will inform Igor.”
“Tell Cheryl, too.”
Yuma chose Catherine and Seryl Cog Igor to go with her to the East.
‘In the end, I couldn’t break Master and Lady Catherine’s stubbornness.’
In fact, Yuma only wanted to take Cheryl, the healer.
It was because there was a high risk of injury or death to his colleagues if he ran into Amanzo.
However, he needed a cog to take care of Catherine if she was with her, and a strong desert island to protect her when he was away.
That was Igor.
That terrible aegyo has nothing to do like Jecca or Natalie.
“Yuma-sama.”
Poin came to see Yuma, who was sitting in a chair and taking a nap.
Yuma grinned and met Poin’s eyes.
“today?”
“Yes, today too…
Yuma could see a familiar face over Puang’s shoulder.
“Yuma! me too! I go too!”
Ballinen Phobian.
He had already been visiting the Puang Merchants without missing a day for a month and roasting Yuma.
