9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 354
Episode 354
Episode 117. (1) Nobles met in Matan
urgently sought an aristocratic healer, but in the end, Cheryl took over the overall responsibility for medical reform. Although she spoke confidently, she couldn’t find a better healer than her.
Also, after the meeting, Yuma looked at the nobles gathered with the sense of a demon god, but there was no one that Maxor had infiltrated.
“hey! Hey man, if you bow your head and apologize, why are you apologizing? Just flip it over!”
Yuma had been visiting the Zach family for the first time in a while and had a drink with his teacher. Duran was upset about Yuma’s apology to the nobles at the imperial meeting not long ago.
“Yes friend. Those motherfuckers called three lils a mean bitch!
I challenged them to a duel one by one, and I was going to kill them all…
Randel, too, continued to drink the poisoned wine from Shallah with an angry face. Yuma looked at them and smiled quietly.
“It’s easier than yawning to suppress them with force. But if you do, Cheryl’s position will continue to be embarrassing. She’s not of great nobility like Master or Sir Randell.”
“but!”
“And nobles have to be coaxed and used in war. Whether we like it or not, when the next war begins, we must unite as allies, but it is a story that we must not trample on people for a few poor words. It wasn’t difficult to bow down once for the sake of a colleague.”
“I don’t know, disciple.”
“Master.”
“Why is that?”
“Everyone is afraid of me. Excluding the imperial family and the Jacques family, he has become virtually the most powerful person in the empire and is even protected by the Balaur.”
“What’s wrong with that? It is as natural as dogs fearing wild beasts.”
“It’s a problem, Dad. Because frightened dogs can’t guard the house. You have to get it right and make it work.
I think Yuma did well.”
It was Catherine who came down to the parlor before she knew it.
Surprisingly, it was the first time Yuma had seen her since returning to the West.
As soon as she returned, she came to say hello several times, but Catherine was not there each time. There were many times when I was out of the capital.
He deliberately avoided Yuma. Catherine needed time to clear her mind about Yuma.
”miss!”
Yuma jumped up and looked at her. Catherine smiled and hugged Yuma lightly.
“Oh…
“Oh…!”
Duran and Randel put in an outright chuimsae. However, he had to erase the pale expression from Catherine’s stare, which soon stung him.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t come out to meet you, Yuma.”
“What is there to be sorry for, lady? During the Rimt battle, I was able to win thanks to you!
If it hadn’t been for the lady, Ji Won-gun would have been much late. I’m just sorry that I can finally meet you face to face and say hello.”
this time too.
This time, thank you and friendship for me first…. I’m not saying I missed you.
It was to be expected. And the bitter feeling that exceeded my expectations was a little painful. Catherine leaned her cheek against Yuma’s chest for a while and bit her lower lip.
However, the last time he was avoiding Yuma and clearing his mind was not to let go of his love for Yuma.
“Is that all? this child.”
“yes?”
“All I said was that I didn’t want to see you.”
Catherine looked up at Yuma with shining eyes. Yuma’s friendly gaze passed her face.
“I missed you very much, ma’am.”
“Then it should be.”
Catherine knew at least that the words “I missed you” were not meant for the woman she loved, but for a close friend.
But that didn’t matter anymore. Catherine realized that her life had become hot just by the fact that she was ‘in love’ with Yuma.
It was a law that all the love in the world could not come true. Catherine knew that Hella and Yuma had feelings for her.
And he was certain that Yuma’s feelings for Natalie would never change. The Yuma she saw was that kind of person.
‘I’m jealous, Natalie. It’s a bit unfair that she doesn’t wear it.’
Catherine smiled and mischievously searched Yuma’s coat pocket.
“You came to see your teacher, comrades, and me, but you didn’t come empty-handed, right?”
“Could that be, ma’am?”
What Yuma had prepared was a dragon cigarette.
It was the reason why I couldn’t give Marlon and Zecca a little. He forgot to give presents to Randall and his teacher Catherine, who had been with him throughout the Underworld War.
As expected, the three people who smoked cigarettes exclaimed exclamation and showed a ecstatic appearance.
“Uh uh uh… I see the rice stars, I see the stars! friend!”
For reference, the Balaur’s cigarettes did not contain any hallucinogenic or addictive ingredients.
“Calm down, Randall. If you don’t want to get beaten up. The scent is amazing. The Worg boy and Zecca are going crazy. Did he really go back?”
“They say they will return to Matan tomorrow.
I am also planning to visit Mattan myself and ask Captain Hugo to conduct a full-scale search for the warlock.”
“My family has also been looking for you while you were in the east, but I can’t find any traces of you. Ryoka Roll Mandi It looks like he’s with a warlock for some reason…
Heize’s son, Ryoka Roll Mandi, is currently missing.
People assumed that he could not bear the downfall of his family and committed suicide somewhere, but those who knew the truth did not think so.
“There are too many things that bother me, not just Warlock. The disappearance of Galos, the ruler of the underworld, and the disappearance of Evan.”
There was also the Ballinan test. There was no news yet, so it was frustrating for Yuma.
‘I’m sure he’ll do it. Because he’s a strong-willed guy. But I’m worried.’
Until Ballinan’s return, he would not receive any support from the Phobians.
The family, which was good at tricks and tricks, hadn’t shown any movement yet. Even though he could hold Yuma responsible for the disappearance of Ballinan and the death of Aidan.
After the collapse of Jacques Rollmandi, the aristocratic power structure, which had been formed in the 3rd family of Fauvian, had completely changed.
Now, Jacques Yuma Fauvian and finally, the Thorin family were the key.
Among them, not being able to receive help from Povian was a major stumbling block in preparing for the Dragon Horse War.
‘It shouldn’t be a problem since Sorin is famous for his high loyalty to the imperial family, but… Povian is uncomfortable. There is no response even after losing the elite wizards and two sons. I have no choice but to wait and see for you to come back.’
Duran had been informed of everything in the East by Yuma.
Yuma even announced that he had descended as a Demon God for a while, but he did not mention anything about Rizol’s secret organization, ‘Alpenter’.
It was because of the thought that an unknown Transcendentalist might become conscious of the Zach family.
Alpenter didn’t seem to be of much help, but there was no need to endanger those who had broken their promise.
“Wouldn’t it be impossible to find him with the Demon God’s sense that he remains with you?”
“Yes, Heider is probably hiding him.”
“Hmm, transcendence. I’d like to stick around too. I’m also curious about Mantoo.”
“If Mantu had been born around the same time as Master, I would have made a good friend. He was a great soldier.”
“From me and Hugo and Pidgin Carta to Mantu of Flames. It seems that you have a special bond with the grandmasters. Aren’t people thought to be dead popping up from somewhere?”
“Please. It would be good for the lion to rest.”
Pidgin sealed in Jeka’s chest and Mantu who became a berserker.
Can their time after ‘death’ really be considered okay? To Yuma, it was a tragedy beyond providence.
“Anyway, I will make a proposal to His Majesty in my name to develop a trade route connecting the East and the West, and I will provide all support.”
“Thank you, Master.”
“It’s not something you should be thankful for.
who do you think i am Before being your teacher, he is the commander-in-chief of the empire. It is natural for me to take part in the work for the safety of this land.”
As always, Duran was a reliable person to Yuma.
The three stayed up all night talking about the delays and discussing future plans.
At the end of the drinking party, Catherine saw Yuma off and said this.
“The whole time we were talking about Yuma, he looked like a person with a lot of worries.”
“It has to be, lady. In fact, there hasn’t been a day that I’ve returned to the West and my head hasn’t been messed up.”
“You don’t trust us?”
“No, lady. What kind of sad words are you talking about?”
“I am saying this because I am sad.
Leave the affairs of the empire to our family and colleagues, and focus on the things that only ‘you’ can do.”
“ah.”
“Father is already preparing to build an allied force with the East, and Randall’s brother is trying to empower Cheryl. The same goes for the Cellov unit Rose Society’s Morning Star Puang. You don’t have to instruct them one by one. What do you think is the reason for Povian being silent?”
One thing Yuma couldn’t even imagine.
While Catherine deliberately avoided Yuma, she didn’t just spend her time organizing her mind.
Before Yuma arrived in the west, she had visited the Povian family alone and negotiated with them.
If Yuma were to be held accountable for the disappearance of Ballinan or the loss of Aidan’s death or the loss of an elite mage, be prepared to erase either the Zach family or the Povian family from the history of the Empire.
And probably the one that gets erased is Po Biang.
It felt like getting hit in the back of the head.
“We are concentrating on our work. It means everyone believes in you. Yuma, you should trust us too. I hope you will never let these sad words come out of my mouth again.”
As she said, Yuma needed to focus more on what only she could do. Tejiz’s seal of the demon dragon, the conclusion of an alliance with the dragons, the understanding of the true spirit of the transcendentalists, etc.
Yuma’s time is infinitely short even to focus on such matters.
“I’ll listen, ma’am.”
“okay. The road is dark because it has not yet dawned, so go carefully.”
“Perhaps the only one who tells me to be careful because the road is dark is the lady.”
“No one will worry about you who have become incredibly strong, so even I tried to tell you to care.”
It was not only Duran who was reassuring.
Catherine, who had acted like she was impatient with Yuma when they first met, now cared for Yuma more than anyone else.
Yuma returned to the upper house mansion, feeling a corner of his heart warm. As she said, look carefully on the dark road.
And Yuma was able to sleep deeply for the first time in a long time.
Until the two friends who promised to leave for Matan together today break down the door and enter.
“No cigarettes. Yuma you son of a bitch!
wake up!”
“cigarette! Grab that cigarette right now!
Without it, I won’t allow you to set foot on Matan land! In the name of the Black Wolf 2nd Assault Captain! Give me the dragon cigarette!”
They were lovable friends that made me want to kill them.
