9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 306
Episode 306
Episode 105. On the way back , Grandmaster Man Two (3)
Yuma of the past stood at a distance from the rest of the warriors and explained to Natalie what he had been through.
“Mantu Rani of the flame. When I go out with you, it seems like I only experience unrealistic things. I don’t think it would be too surprising if a dimension suddenly opens next to me and dozens of dragons pour out.”
In the beginning, I was surprised to hear that Yuma had become a noble from a commoner, and when I first met Kriesha at Innz Bikan, I was even awestruck.
But Natalie was no longer surprised by what was happening around Yuma. As long as he doesn’t get hurt.
“It was no surprise that Sir Randell was defeated. When I competed earlier, I experienced firsthand that his legendary saga was not fiction.”
“Hmm… But, Yuma.”
tt ᄋ » “Did Mantu kill four of my men? Have you checked?”
“Oh, the situation was urgent, so I couldn’t ask. But Mantu seems to have killed it.”
Thick smoke billowed from Natalie’s pipe.
“It’s normal for unmanned men to fight and die. If I had become a grandmaster, I would have been able to easily subdue four of my men without bloodshed.”
“yes.”
Natalie turned her head and met Yuma’s eyes. It was an angry look in his eyes.
Yuma felt guilty for some reason and smiled awkwardly.
“I know what you are thinking. If possible, you would want to recruit that grandmaster as an ally.”
“Yes.”
“But Yuma, know this well.
He’s killed four of my pursuers, who are also yours, and should therefore be classed as an enemy. And when recruiting enemies, be sure to reward and punish them.”
“I see what you mean.”
“Of course, it is right to do as you wish, Commander-in-Chief. I just mean that you have to think about those things carefully and act wisely in order to close the internal rifts and gain reliable allies.”
As expected, she, who has been leading the rose society for a long time as the owner, pointed out the core of the organization’s operation at once. I always felt that Yuma had a lot to learn from her.
‘Recruitment…
Yuma pondered the conversation he had with Mantu on his way back.
Judging by his words and actions, he hated demons, so there was a possibility that he could be recruited into the allied army.
But why did he ask me to come back tomorrow, saying that something seemed to be dragging him all of a sudden?
Apparently, there were many uncertain corners about his resurrection.
When Yuma and Natalie soldiers returned to the barracks, Lois gasped to greet them.
Yuma’s entourage, as well as the entire command staff, were waiting for them biting their nails.
“Commander-in-chief!”
“Are you okay?”
Most of the soldiers were still unaware of Randall’s injury. Except for the sentries at the commander’s barracks, there was no indication that anything was wrong with the commanders.
“Okay. Sir Randell?”
“You are awake. Enough to cover your wounds and walk around.”
“All commanders, please gather at the commander’s barracks.”
An emergency meeting was held.
The commanders waited patiently for Yuma to tell them something.
No one made a fuss or asked what had happened.
“Have you met any friends? You said I shouldn’t fight. Fortunately, unlike me, he seems to be fine. Damn, I showed you the ugly side.”
Randall, who finally entered the commander’s barracks, spoke.
He seemed to be fine on the outside as he brushed his hair and smiled.
However, Yuma was able to perceive that the energy he felt from him was noticeably lower than usual.
Rest for at least a few days and you’ll feel better.
“Emergencies come from completely unexpected places.”
“That…is that the person I thought of?”
Randall shrugged and said.
“Yes, Grandmaster Mantu.”
When Yuma spoke calmly, the commanders became agitated.
Randall was silent as if he was thinking over the battle.
“No, Commander-in-Chief. It’s Manturani.
What do you mean?”
It was Prince Ilan.
“I don’t know why, but it was Mantu who injured Sir Randell. I saw a monkey-like face in the painting and this armor and expressed it as my own.”
“Three worlds. Are you saying it’s real?”
“I swear by the names of my master, King of Knights, Duran Jacques, and Master of Steel, Asuka Roze, Guardian of the North Sea, Kriesha Ainu. He was full.”
“This is impossible! The dead have come back to life!?”
“That sounds like you don’t believe in the honor of the commander-in-chief, me and my teacher, His Majesty Kriesha Ainu.”
Yuma said with force.
The truth was the truth, no matter how sudden and absurd it was. In this situation, trying to understand their doubts one by one would only add to the confusion.
“That… no.”
“I have decided to meet Mantu again tomorrow. I will take the two commanders with me to the place.”
“Commander-in-chief! i want to go Because Mantu is from Seruka.”
When Prince Ilen raised his hand, Yuma nodded.
The other was determined to be Princess Sebra.
“great. However, this is not a meeting to select the lucky ones to meet the old spirit.
The question we need to discuss is this. what to do with him.”
The buzzing inside the commander’s barracks became quiet.
Yuma explained what had happened with Mantu in the meantime.
“…why he who died was near the gray forest, what his intentions were, whether he would help us or hinder us. We still don’t know anything.”
“Commander-in-chief.”
Lois, who was seated behind the strategy table, opened her mouth. The commanders’ eyes fell on Lois.
“Tell me Lois.”
“thank you. The Gray Forest… is the area where La Gatino Rollmandi sacrificed. I think the resurrection of Mantu may have something to do with it.”
“Is this the story of using sacrifices to resurrect?”
“That won’t be it. The commander said that he and Mantu had agreed to meet again tomorrow. That would mean he is at least able to communicate.”
“Yes. He wasn’t even able to communicate, he was a normal person. I didn’t even feel the magic at all.”
“Originally, resurrection in black magic has no choice but to stop at creating a spirit or a berserker that moves according to the will of the ritual master. It is so contrary to the current state of Mantu.”
Yuma knew better than anyone else that there would be no resurrection without a price.
The ceremony was not actually a resurrection, but making dolls using lions was the limit, and ‘perfect resurrection’ was an act that guaranteed the end.
“Then why is it related to the Gray Forest?”
“It is possible that he was temporarily manifested rather than resurrected.
By sacrificing the entire Gray Forest.”
“Hyunhyun…?”
“yes. Just like the anecdote in which Grandmaster Pidgin Carta manifested in the western land of Rolmandi.”
It was something that Yuma experienced firsthand.
The fact that Pidgin Carta appeared when Yuma condemned Heize as the messenger of the Balaur was one of the rumors that spread even in the East.
“Then you have manifested Mantu for the demons to use, and it seems reasonable to assume that there is something wrong with the process.”
“That’s right. If the demons had been able to use him as they wished, I would be ashamed of myself… I don’t think the commander-in-chief and deputy commander could have come back healthy this far.”
“What! How dare that demon possessor insult the commander-in-chief!”
The King of Fights jumped up and screamed.
Lois silently hung her head and said nothing.
“No, Lois is right. He duly dueled me and I lost. Even though he gave him the humiliation of saving his life, he was definitely stronger than me or Yuma.”
Randel, who had been still, glanced at the audience and said.
Feitz sat back down and looked at him in amazement.
“I don’t think anyone here knows the power of a grandmaster better than I do. If Hugo and my uncle join hands and start a war of conquest, how many months do you think it will take before the whole world is united? That’s what being a grandmaster is.”
“But it’s also a level where you don’t use that power recklessly. None of the seven Grandmasters who have etched their names into history has started a war by trampling on humans recklessly.”
As Yuma continued, the commanders nodded.
Yuma tapped the strategy table several times with her fingers and made eye contact with the commanders.
“First of all, the march will be suspended for the time being. It would be better for the elemental spirits to keep paving the way and take the time to check the supply base. If it is a manifestation, not a resurrection, until Mantu disappears.”
“What should I do if it’s not manifestation but the new black magic?
Commander-in-Chief.”
Sebra asked in a clear voice.
She didn’t ask because she was genuinely curious, but because Yuma induced the commanders to come up with a satisfactory answer.
Yuma also immediately recognized her intentions and responded in a serious tone.
“If he is determined to be the enemy, I will kill him with all my means. I am now the Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces, not a soldier who worships the beauty of a fair duel.”
The emergency meeting ended after deciding how to proceed with the schedule and troop management of the supply corps and spiritists.
The next day, when the sun went down, Yuma took Sevra and Ilten to the gray forest where they met Mantu.
Natalie and 10 uninhabited people were also together.
“I don’t know if I can talk about this, Commander-in-Chief.”
“Tell me, Prince Ilan.”
“I came along as a commander to be a witness and also to identify an unpredictable enemy…but honestly, my heart is very excited.”
« o ”
“Mantu was by far the most brilliant human being in the history of our Celuca. It’s hard to calm down at the thought of meeting a country’s hero with the highest name in this vast eastern land.”
“It can be. From what I feel, he seems to be wary of evil and hates demons, so the prince’s expectations will not be broken.”
Unlike the first time I met Mantu, the night sky was beautiful.
The moonlight, as soft as it seemed to flow down, illuminated Mantu, who was sitting in a sitting position. It was as if the moonlight was about to shine on him.
“Come. Were you even scared? What kind of escort did you bring here? Even if you protect them, it won’t be enough.”
“It is not an escort. They are witnesses.”
Hwareuk! When Mantu opened his eyes, people groaned and got off their horses.
“okay. It seems that you still have no intention of using honorifics.”
“Maybe I’m not in a position to use honorifics.”
“Ahhh…! You really are Mantu from the Mantu Flame!”
As soon as Ilan saw his painting, he fell to his knees and wept.
There was no doubt that his appearance, shining with his eyes, was full of fights.
“Who the hell are you?”
“My name is Ten of the Seruka Sizer royal family. As a prince, he is currently in charge of ruling Seruka. It is an honor to meet you!”
“The Sizer family still ruled Seruka. Your family owes me a lot. wake up The prince recklessly kneels. Well, your ancestors often knelt down to me. I didn’t even do it.”
He spoke softly, as if he were talking to his grandson.
“I’m a witness, so I couldn’t believe that I was alive at first either. There are many stories I want to hear, but I don’t have time. After confirming my existence, it would be better for everyone else to return, leaving only Yuma behind.”
“Wait, uncle. I wish I could tell you a common sense story. I don’t think it’s right to say that only our commander-in-chief is left alone and the rest go back? What do you think you’ll do?”
Natalie stood next to Yuma and said.
