9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 34

Episode 34

Episode 20. Jecca Dean ⑴ Yuma and Puang planned to return the same way they came.

And at the docks, the group coincidentally met the stowaway, who planned to return home and live the life of a fisherman.

“My ship has not sailed yet. Please use the boat over there, sir. Although they are very rough friends… I’m thinking of leaving this floor now. I will live a good life…

The stowaway told Yuma and Puang about the new ship in an extremely polite tone.

As they approached, four or five black muscular men glared at them.

“We don’t accept items, only cash.

Leave your weapons.”

“Aha, that’s right.”

It was only natural that Yuma decided to use his skills and kill the five bastards in an instant.

While going back to the past and going through various things, Yuma gradually realized the convenience of violence.

overwhelming power. Nothing made things go faster than that.

and careful calculations. It solved the problems that arose while handling the work.

However, there was no need for meticulous calculations to defeat the gangsters by the docks.

Yuma punched just enough to keep the stowaways from dying.

The smugglers were knocked out even by fists without auras.

‘These days, pure physical ability itself is on the rise. Why?’

It was a strange thing.

Of course, Duran’s training included ‘basic’ strength training. Climbing a mountain with a rock over your shoulder, doing pull-ups using only two fingers, swinging a heavy iron bar thousands of times like a sword, and so on.

However, even impossible tasks without an aura were not practiced only with pure physical abilities.

Besides, I wasn’t in a state where I was making an enormous effort to strengthen my muscles.

“Big billion!”

One of the stowaway’s teeth broke and fell to the floor. Although not yet the rigid body of a superhuman, Yuma’s body was also well above the average of a general warrior.

I don’t know what caused it, but it was good to be strong anyway.

Yuma smiled and even stirred up the bullies who rushed in.

Even though he barely used his aura, the big men who were hit by Yuma’s fists flew around like fallen leaves.

“Call the boss.”

Yuma said as the stowaways knelt.

Two stowaways with swollen faces hurried into the boat and shouted the name of the boss. Poin, accustomed to this sight, stood still, holding the weight.

The boss of the ship was a man who was overconfident in his own skills because he had only used a sword in the past. The boss, who saw the scenery outside the ship, fell into trouble for a while.

A man wearing a mask and his subordinates lying on the ground with one of their sandals beaten.

Just looking at it, the size wasn’t good.

He honestly wanted to get down on his knees and surrender.

However, as the subordinates were watching, the boss gnashed his teeth and tried to pull out the sword from his waist.

“Huh billion!”

However, the moment the boss grabbed the hilt and attempted to launch the sword, Yuma approached him with a swift speed.

Now, even when he used the swift, he didn’t feel much of a physical burden.

The boss’s sword was about a span from the scabbard. Yuma hit the back of the boss’s hand with his elbow, punched him in the abdomen, and tore off the sword attached to his waist.

“Weapons are confiscated.”

Boss grabbed his stomach and nodded as he collapsed. It was easy to add a few more words to such a person and get beaten up a few more times.

He was more of a smart friend than the stowaway who first brought Yuma and the others to Kalam.

The boss took Yuma and Puang to the best rooms as if he were a nobleman.

As the ship departed, the seagulls chirped.

“My master wants fresh sea fish for every meal. If you bring me something like beggarly powder as a meal, I will pull out your teeth one by one.”

This time, there was only one bed in the room.

Puang had to sleep on the hard wooden floor all the way back to the empire.

Upon returning to the Empire, Yuma threw two gold coins to the stowaways.

Boss, the smuggler who thought he would not get a single penny, bowed his head toward Yuma until they disappeared.

The ship’s boss also said it was the last money he made as a stowaway.

* * * “Are you here?”

Cindy and Spin Cog greeted the owners of the caravan.

The wise spinner immediately prepared bath water for the returning masters.

While Yuma and Puang went to Kalam, ominous rumors circulated among the servants of the Puang Merchants.

It was only natural that the gangster shouted, ‘I’m doomed, I’m doomed!’ in the front yard of the mansion.

The servants were worried about what to do if the corps collapsed and they lost their place to go.

“I have finished my work.

Did you finish it too?”

When Yuma told Cindy, the servants sighed in relief and left to do their own thing.

Among the servants, Yuma was known as ‘the little master’ or ‘the real master’.

The servants realized that the little master had returned with the company’s finances restored.

“Sure… I finished it…

Cindy had her pretty face cut in half.

It was okay to send them all the way to the Mattan Kingdom to deliver the blood to them without attaching an escort. After all, he wanted to report Hugo and the Black Wolf to the imperial family anyway.

But when he went to Matan, he didn’t get anything. The main reporting target Hugo was fighting in the Matan border conflict, and the Black Wolves put an eyepatch on him as soon as he arrived.

I didn’t see anything.

When he returned to the guild without any harvest, Yuma, the subject of the intensive report, left the guild with a mountain of instructions to himself.

Seeing Cindy emaciated, Poin felt his heart ache for some reason. I couldn’t understand why Yuma was pecking at an insanely competent and pretty secretary.

Poin thought to himself that he should at least buy him something delicious for dinner.

“So what are the results?”

When Yuma asked, Cindy took out a piece of paper with the result report written on it and held it out to Yuma.

‘You damn bastard. Am I a secretary or a slave?’

Cindy, of course, handled all of Yuma’s instructions brilliantly. By using the authority of the imperial family special commissioner a bit.

That’s exactly what Yuma was aiming for, and entrusted Cindy with such an excessive task.

In other words, Yuma was using part of the intelligence power of the Imperial Special Entrustment Corps as if it were her own.

Yuma studied Cindy’s report carefully.

“Let’s see, the Zeka Merchant Corps was receiving and eating Haseo’s Magic Stone instead of us. The connections are Fitz Quirrell Pumor… You don’t have to care much here…

Fitz Quirrell Fumor are all small and medium-sized nobles who are far from the central power.

“By the way, Rollmandy…? The Rollmandy family is putting a string on that little top?”

“yes.”

“Are you sure? Why is Rollmandy Gaga taking care of this top?”

Yuma turned his head to the side as if he couldn’t understand.

“That… Rumor has it that the leader of the Jeka Merchant is the bastard of Lord Heize Rollmandi. He is famous among his servants.”

Cindy was also surprised when she investigated.

This is because she recognizes herself as the bastard of the Rollmandi family, not the archduke Winslting’s bastard.

The Duke of Hayes was the head of the Rollmandy family and a long-time rival of Duran Jacques.

Of course, there has been no history of Hayes defeating Duran since he won a friendly sparring with a noble family at the age of 7.

However, he was also as strong as Duran Jacques.

“Were the Rollmandies soft enough to take care of their bastards? Especially Haze Ball?”

Yuma had been watching Heize for a long time in the imperial castle before returning.

Unlike Duran, who smells like a man, Heize had a very cold-hearted personality. Since his youth, he has been evaluated as a talented person who will lead the Rollmandi family in the future.

“I don’t know Hayes Ball very well. However, it is certain that the servants of the Jeka Merchants said such things.”

“Lord Hayes isn’t generous enough to let the servants who talk so loudly live. Taking care of the bastard is also strange.”

“Do you know Hayes Ball well? Yu Ma-sama.”

Yuma felt sorry for Cindy’s sudden question. However, Yuma did not show any embarrassment.

“I just heard through rumors that he is a very cold-hearted person. At the imperial banquet.”

After attending the imperial banquet, numerous rumors and songs about Yuma circulated among the people.

Judging by the contents, Cindy guessed that Yuma didn’t have much time to chat with the nobles.

“…okay. I’m pretty sure he’s the bastard of Lord Hayes. Otherwise, the Rollmandy family is a small upper house that will not look after them.”

“What if the Jeka Merchants have something that could be of help to the Rollmandi family?”

“I also obtained the upper ledger and checked it. There is no such thing.

It’s just an ordinary upper class.”

“As expected, Cindy. The power of action that does not hesitate to go to the law for the sake of the mission! Oh, I guess I should get a pay raise. There will be no other secretary in the world as perfect as you.”

Unless you’re in the Imperial Family’s special enlistment. Yuma looked at Cindy, thinking about the back story.

“Are you sad that Rollmandy and Gaga only took care of a friend called Zecca?”

Yuma asked indirectly. Cindy must think of herself as the Rollmandi family anyway.

Poin wondered why Yuma had to say something that could hurt Cindy.

For some reason, he wanted to take his anger out on Cindy’s behalf. If only the opponent wasn’t Yuma.

“no. I am satisfied with my life now. If only I could get a hefty bonus for my hard work this time.”

Cindy replied with a smile.

“Poin-sama, within a few days, the advance payment sent to Haseo will probably be recovered. At that time, we will pay extra wages to all the servants. Especially for Cindy.”

“All right!”

Cindy’s expression brightened, and Pouang, who was in a good mood, answered. He didn’t realize why he had suddenly become sensitive about things involving Cindy.

Pouang smiled like an idiot and looked at Cindy, then cleared his throat as their eyes met.

“Anyway, the corps that needs to be broken this time is protected by the Rollmandy family…

“Smash it again!?”

Pooh shouted at first.

“sure. They are the ones who stole our prey.”

“It seems to be Haseo-guk’s fault, not the Jeka Corps’ fault…

“Isn’t it a bit harsh for me to destroy Haseo-guk alone? If the Rollmandy family is over there, we have Master. Don’t be afraid, let’s stick together. Wouldn’t it be fine if we decided not to invite each other back? ha ha ha.”
