9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 39
Episode 39
Episode 21. Feeling of incongruity (1)
Is it because he has emptied several bottles of terrible alcohol or is it because he is engulfed in terrible memories?
Even after being beaten by Yuma, Zecca didn’t run wild like the last time.
It was only that his neck was intermittently bent and his eyes turned over once in a while as if he was having a seizure.
It was a phenomenon that occurred while suppressing the destructive instinct caused by demoniac.
After five minutes, Zecca, who had calmed down, let out a crackling breath. Zecca’s nasal bone, which had been broken, was already perfectly attached.
“It must be very uncomfortable to live there.”
“I didn’t tell you. I’m not the one who moves me I’m sorry, Liz.”
“It’s not a good way to be abused by your father and to take that victimization to a woman.”
Yuma looked at Liz and said.
“I understand that Lord Hayes has done things to Jeka that are not supposed to be done as a human being. But keep your senses straight. Wouldn’t that be the way to get revenge or whatever?”
It wasn’t that Yuma couldn’t sympathize with Zecca’s pain.
“Hehe, revenge. How can I get my revenge on that human? The opponent is Hayes, head of the Rollmandy family. People like me are people who can get rid of bugs with your fingers.”
“You can’t do that, can you?
Because I covet your talent.”
“Talent? My body is already being eaten by demons. Totally ruined.
From sixteen to sixteen I heard this sweet voice. I can’t figure out why he’s obsessed with me.”
It meant that Jeka had been resisting the voice’s owner for several years already.
It wasn’t common for demons to be possessed until the Dragon Horse War.
The magicians’ research on possessing demons showed results in earnest only after the Dragon Horse War began.
Before the Dragon Horse War broke out, the demons realized their desires through human grudges.
Of course, not all humans with deep grudges were targets of possession.
strong human. Only physically strong and mentally impoverished people driven to dead ends were their prey.
However, demons basically did not have much interest in humans.
Forcibly possessing humans and driving them to destruction only when they are unusually curious or have a purpose.
That was an attribute of the demons.
It was all the results of the magicians’ research, and Yuma was well aware of this.
During the Dragon Horse War, this kind of information was spread like common sense.
‘The fact that he endured the demon’s temptation for several years was probably a subject of intensive research back then. Your mental strength is amazing.’
When you start hearing the voices of the demons, the complete possession will end in a week at the earliest, or a year at the latest.
‘Haze is not a person who uses a human who has been ruined by magic for important things. You either know how to fix it or you have other ideas.’
Yuma was taken aback by Heize’s terrible humanity.
While serving as a eunuch, Yuma had seen 50,000 dirty things, but this one was particularly disgusting.
It is probably that he endured and endured before returning, and then ran out of control until the end.
I couldn’t let such a terrible incident happen again this time.
Anyway, since they allied with the Zach family, the Rollmandi family was a force that Yuma had to keep in check.
There was also an incident that humiliated Shonan Rollmandy at the banquet last time, so Rollmandy probably didn’t think well of himself either.
Yuma decided to bring Zecca into his person.
“Do you know what this voice keeps telling me?”
“I do not know.”
“Kill it, kill it. only say that And it gives me strength little by little.”
It was the power that killed countless civilians and knights.
“The funny story ends here. Haha, was this enough for you to listen to?”
“It’s not a waste of expensive alcohol.”
“Good answer. Liz just cried when she heard this.”
“You are a good person. So let’s stop being mean. I will help you.”
“under! How can you say that a commoner’s hero will help me? Against the Rollmandy family. And why are you?”
“I liked Zeca too. Let’s be drinking buddies. Think about the method second and second.”
Yuma took Ascalon and stood up.
“I don’t think I’m good at throwing blank checks. Beating someone you like like this is your hobby? ha ha ha.”
Zecca looked up at Yuma and said.
“You saw it right. I am not one to throw empty words. Let me get you out of that hell.”
Yuma lowered his horse and left Zecca’s room.
Zecca shook her head and smiled as if there were all these guys.
Yuma immediately wrote a letter to Cahel Povian and went to Adeline Woods. It was to hear the story of possessing demons.
But there was no income whatsoever.
‘Hmm, should I meet Mr. Hugo and ask him? He seemed to know about demons and dragons.’
For a few days, Yuma rested in the Puang upper house, organizing his thoughts.
Returning to the past has already changed many futures, but the Hale massacre was an exceptionally large event.
‘Since I’m 17 now, if I became a eunuch as planned, a little over a year has passed. And it was two years later, when I turned 19, that my car caused the massacre. And what else happened?’
Yuma rummaged through his memories before returning.
It was 40 years ago, but I remember it clearly.
One year later, the first princess, Zishka, planned to rebel and was to be dethroned.
And Hella, who became the first princess, ascended the throne four years later. Five years later, the Dragon Horse War was the history before the return.
and barris.
Varys was scheduled to become the head of the Royal Guards for the sake of killing the traitor Zishka. Hey’s strong recommendation.
“Varys!”
As if remembering something, Yuma shouted Baris’ name.
“Why is Yuma-sama like that?”
Surprised, Puang looked at Yuma.
“Why didn’t I think of this?”
“What do you mean? I will fall.”
With her eyes wide open, Yuma started assembling the puzzles of the past once again.
‘It was also strange that Varys and the first princess were together in the mountain behind the imperial castle.
It was Varys who punished that Princess U, and Varys supported the second princess, Hella Rose, who was a representative pro-feminist faction. He was the one who revealed the treason of the first princess and punished her.’
Barris Cannon and Rollmandy.
The Cannon family had a close relationship with the Rollmandy family from ancient times. Heize, in particular, had great confidence in Barris.
Although he may have killed a traitor, it was an unconventional appointment that would have been impossible without Heize’s recommendation for the young Varys to become the head of the Imperial Guard.
Most of all, Arold Gray, the former Commander of the Knights of the Imperial Guard of Varys, was not in the time to retire.
Even so, he just resigned as general manager. For this reason, I wanted to rest.
He was a person who secretly supported the first princess, so no one doubted at the time.
‘Jishka Roget and Baris Cannon. And Hayes Rollmandy and Jacka Dean’s runaway possession of demons… Something is wrong.’
After the massacre, Yuma recalled the image of Heize, who had denied that Zecca was his bastard.
Also, the appearances of Baris and Zishka seen from the mountain behind the imperial castle.
It was incomprehensible that he was anxious enough to come to find himself as a commoner.
“Cindy!”
At Yuma’s call, Cindy put aside what she was doing and approached. She had a pale face because of the hard work.
Poin felt uneasy when Yuma found Cindy again. With her face half-shaven, she couldn’t understand why she kept making Cindy do the work.
“Yes, Yuma-sama.”
“I need to meet Sir Varys. You have other things to do.”
“What is it?”
Cindy nodded, as if she was used to being overworked.
It was a higher workload than the espionage duties of the Imperial Family Special Entrusted Corps. If it had been an ordinary secretary rather than Cindy, she would have quit right away.
“Let me know by writing an announcement that you are looking for someone with experience in the Demon Cave at the Puang Merchants.
It is also passed on to employees who are dispatched to other countries. They are recruiting members to subdue the demon cave.”
As soon as the word “magul” came out, Pouang’s expression distorted. Besides, why are you recruiting members to subjugate the demon cave?
Poin glared at Yuma. “Yuma-sama, what are you talking about?”
“It is literally. I’m going to build a team to investigate and subdue the demon cave.”
“Why the hell! Why the hell!”
“Puang-sama, didn’t you experience it the other day? The value of the things obtained from slaying a Shelob is higher than that of a single magic stone. Magul is a land of total opportunity. It is a field of money.”
Poin and Cindy looked at Yuma in amazement.
“Do you think everyone in the world is strong and fearless like Yuma?
“Not all of them are as strong as me, but there are probably quite a few fearless people.”
“No one will apply.”
“You just have to pay a lot. We have a lot of money. You will get a lot more money back than your investment cost.”
“And the devil’s cave is usually a no-go area!”
“I went in and out well last time. Puang went with you too.”
“Because he knocked down the sentry and entered!”
“Aha, in that case, bribe the official organization and register as an accreditation group.”
“profit! Above all, monster parts are prohibited items!”
“Ah, why are you doing this all over again? Illegal is the specialty of our upper ranks.”
Poin grabbed the back of his neck and dropped the pipe.
When Cindy picked up the dropped pipe and handed it to her, Poin took a deep breath and sucked in the smoke.
“Why in the world do you do such crazy business? Our upper ranks are still running well enough!”
“Puang-sama, this is ultimately for world peace. Who would want to enter the demon cave and subdue it? That’s what we do. All we do. Receive a subjugation fee and collect monster parts! Isn’t it killing two birds with one stone? haha.”
“More than world peace, I want peace on my top!”
“Probably, when the monster subjugation team is officially launched, each national institution and religious organization will be happy to provide support. There has never been an organization like this before. Unless it’s a national military subjugation unit.”
It was an absurd story.
When Cindy reported this to the imperial castle, she had no idea how Empress Asuka Rose would react.
That man has always been like this.
After reporting and starting the investigation, the distance to see again and again came up again.
If you are a resourceful businessman, you will become a disciple of the King of Knights, and if you are a war hero, you will find another job.
“Did you agree, Mr. Puang?”
“When did you need my consent…
” “Now, don’t be so depressed. Think positively that it’s all for world peace. The name of the Puang Merchant will be etched into history. ha ha ha!”
As Puang worried, Magul was not an easy place. There was a field of magic stones, so there was no need to enter.
‘But that kind of demon cave becomes a passage for demons later. You have to prepare in advance. To do so, it is necessary to monitor and investigate several demon caves.’
What if you could know the change of the demon cave in advance? The benefits that could be gained from using that information would be infinite.
