Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1088
Episode 1088. ‘Stop it, son of a bitch!’ said our vice-captain.
When Elio teased, Fabian made an excuse with a look of regret.
“Who do you say ran around the bar? On the day I was inaugurated as company commander, I came to know about it while visiting for a dinner with the second lieutenants.”
“I thought the order was too natural for something like that?”
“After that, I came back with the rider one more time.”
“You mean you’ve been here five times?”
“Is it because you came twice?”
“Yeah, that’s what you want to say.”
When Elio didn’t break the argument, Fabian shook his head excitedly as if he had lost and said,
“Honestly, I’ve been here three times.”
Seeing Fabian’s expression, Elio didn’t push further five times.
“Isn’t this house expensive? It’s a stone building. I heard that alcohol is also popular in Jedo Island?”
“Beer? that’s cheap Snacks are expensive, but they are expensive.”
“Is it delicious?”
“It is a dish that has been modified to suit the tastes of the people of the island, but overall it is awesome.”
“So how are you?”
“Two glasses of beer and a chicken cost 1 silver and 40 copper. 20 coppers for beer and 1 silver for chicken dishes.”
“Wow, how much is a chicken for 1 silver?”
“A chicken costs about 20 coppers. It may seem expensive, but you won’t think of that once you taste it.”
Elio’s mouth fell open.
100 copper is equivalent to receiving five times the price of one silvery chicken.
It’s just amazing how expensive the chicken dishes are.
Out of curiosity, I looked around the table and saw all kinds of dishes, from smoked to grilled to fried.
“How much do you get paid?”
“Fifty silver. How much do you get from the Knights?”
“1 gold.”
“wow! Are you receiving a lot?”
Fabian’s eyes widened wide.
This is because 1 gold is 100 silver, which is twice as much as his salary.
“In addition, the marquis family gave me an additional 50 silver to maintain dignity.”
“Then is it 1 gold and 50 silver?”
“uh.”
“envious. You can come here every day and have beer and snacks.”
“Let’s eat it and say that. Just know that my taste buds are a little picky.”
“Don’t be angry at me for telling you this good place now.”
“How are you?”
“There are things better than beer and snacks. In fact, many of the articles come here because of that.”
“What could be better?”
“The beauty of Bardos appears, and it’s really cool.”
“Bardos?”
“He’s a poet [吟遊詩人], and he’s the most popular in the empire these days.”
“Oh, playing instruments and singing in a bar?”
Elio remembered the artists who sang in Giru.
It certainly seems to be the same wherever people live.
“you’re right. Have you seen it?”
“I saw it often when I was in my hometown.”
“Wow! I didn’t know there was Bardos in the Barbarian Village! It’s a shock. I saw it for the first time when I came here. I lived a more savage life than the vice-captain.”
Fabian looked at Vice-captain Elio with surprised eyes.
I thought Bardos was only in the Empire, but it spread to the barbarian tribe!
“What are you so surprised about? If you see someone singing while dancing with swords, you will turn around.”
“Singing while dancing swords instead of playing an instrument?”
“uh. No, it’s not a joke. Imagine a blade flashing before your eyes.”
“My heart is pounding. That’s why the vice-captain’s swordsmanship was so great.”
Fabian thought that the tribe Elio lived in was quite warlike.
How warlike he would be, wielding a sword instead of a pipa and singing!
As Fabian looked at Vice-captain Elio with admiration, drinks and food were served.
Fabian asked the saleswoman who was about to return after leaving the beer and chicken dish.
“miss. When is the performance today?”
“We will start soon.”
“Can you guess who Bardos is today?”
“This is Miss Erica.”
“Oh oh! Erika’s voice?”
“Do you come here often? I’m sorry I didn’t know.”
Elio tossed a word.
“I’ve been here five times.”
“….”
For some reason, Fabian did not deny it.
When he said that he had come five times, the courteous clerk’s attitude became more kind.
“You were a regular. I’ll be sure to say hello next time I see you.”
The young saleswoman smiled at Fabian and trotted back.
Elio looked at Fabian and said.
“I heard you came three times?”
“Since I came once with the vice-captain, if I come one more time, it will be filled five times.”
“You want to become a real regular?”
“If you see Bardos coming out today, the vice-captain will fall in love with it.”
“What about Sarah? Aren’t the two of you doing well?”
“Why does Miss Sarah’s name appear here? If you listen to Miss Erica’s songs, even the vice-captain will become a regular.”
“Haven’t you ever heard Miss Erica sing along with Sarah?”
“of course.”
“You are really shameless.”
“I just enjoy the cultural life.”
As the two were hanging out and drinking half a glass of beer, a beauty in her early twenties came out holding a pipa.
“Wow!”
“Wheeik!”
“Erika! love!”
Knights seated all over the first floor blew whistles with cheers.
Erika, who was sitting on a chair in the center of the stage, put the pipa on her lap and stroked it gently.
Delilin -.
The beautiful melody of the pipa resonated throughout the bar.
Soon after, her song started.
A beautiful song floated in the quiet bar.
Elio listened to the song with a sullen face.
The tune is so different from Kangho that at first I thought ‘what is this?’ I wanted to, but the more I listened, the more heartbroken I was.
Now that the common language of the continent has come into my ears to some extent, even the lyrics hit my heart.
Where are you?
I think of you when I’m tired and want to let go of everything.
They say spring comes, but it’s already winter.
All the green leaves have fallen and now only frozen branches remain.
Where are you?
Elio, who was listening to the repetitive words of the song, flowed out of his mouth.
“Haa…”
The lyrics seemed to be talking about his situation.
Thinking that way once, after that, just hearing Bardos’ voice made my nose tingle.
The lyrical song ended while Elio, who became ‘crying’, was trying to control his emotions.
The knights applauded enthusiastically, ‘Wow!’ cheered up
One after another, songs praising the knight flowed.
Watching the knights sing along to the song of Bardos, it seemed like a fairly famous song.
Elio asked, even Fabian hummed.
“Is this a song you know?”
“I know. When you go to the knight academy, the first thing you learn is singing. It’s a song made with the main character of Archduke Hannes Knauf, a knight of the Empire.”
“Aren’t knights of the empire enemies of the kingdom?”
“There are no borders to chivalry.”
“You have a broad mind. Are you all as tolerant of Archduke Hannes Knauf as you are?”
“Almost always. After the war, many kingdoms invited Archduke Hannes Knauf as a state guest. Because he was the highest peak of continental knights.”
“You are generous.”
“Not everyone is like that.”
As soon as Fabian finished speaking, one of the guests screamed.
“I won’t listen to you any more! Are you crazy to sing songs praising the warmongers of the empire in the north! stop it! Fuck!”
“…”
The song stopped.
The knights, who were singing along, looked around looking for the person who had shouted with angry faces.
Erica also looked at the guests with surprised eyes.
Viscount Hans Holt, vice-captain of the Rage Knights of the Kingdom of Tallinn, spoke on behalf of the excited knights.
“Miss Erica. If our count is an empire, then I’ll leave chi, so I’ll ask for a different song.”
Erica changed the song quickly because it happens to be like that.
A beautiful voice echoed through the room.
The knights sipped again and fell in love with her song, but Elio couldn’t.
The excitement, once cooled by the Count’s scolding, was seldom revived.
Fabian, who had been listening with a hazy face, muttered to himself.
“Isn’t the song really good?”
“It’s good.”
“When I was assigned to Hirhera, I thought about whether I should beat them all and go back to my hometown… but I think I did well to persevere until the end. If you were in your hometown, wouldn’t you have heard this song?”
“Why don’t you play bardos too?”
“I can’t sing.”
“I heard you humming earlier, so it seems like that.”
The song ended after a while.
After the song, Erica got off the stage and walked to the seats where the screaming guests were.
Looking at her like that, Fabian said.
“Your manners are also good. The guest seems to be in a bad mood, so I’m going to apologize. I just sang the song taught at the kingdom’s knight academy… Ehh! I don’t think everyone’s mind is the same.”
“If you have a deep grudge against Archduke Knauf, that might be the case.”
“What could it be? Earl… His father or grandfather may have died in battle while fighting Archduke Knauf. They must be a great prosecutor family.”
In fact, ordinary knights would never even come face to face with Archduke Hannes Knauf.
Maybe that’s why the kingdom’s knights adored him.
Because there is no direct grudge.
With that in mind, there was a strong possibility that the count’s family was a master of swordsmanship.
As Fabian was chattering about the count’s family name, a sharp female scream was suddenly heard.
“evil!”
The eyes of the knights all turned to the sound.
Count Victor Kern, leader of the Rage Knights of the Kingdom of Tallinn, grabbed Erica’s hand and threatened her.
“Who dares to shout in front of you! Who said they would eat you? If you sit next to me for a while and pour me a drink, I’ll pour it. There are so many things that don’t work!”
“I told you that Bardos only sings.”
“know! If you come down from the stage, you are no longer Bardos. Are you going to say that you will only sing bardosni songs even in bed?”
“Kkeukkeuk!”
At the Knight Commander’s words, Vice Commander Viscount Hans Holt shook his shoulders and laughed.
“I am not the count’s maid. Please let go.”
“If I were a lady-in-waiting, I wouldn’t have been able to fight back. If you really think you’ve done something wrong, pour yourself a drink.”
“I don’t know which kingdom the count is from, but please keep your cool.”
In an instant, Count Viktor Kern, whose pride was hurt, pulled the woman over and sat her on his lap.
“Ah! Let go!”
Erica struggled, but Count Victor Kern rather chuckled and hugged her tightly.
Looking at his flushed face, he seemed quite drunk.
The knights around looked at him with uncomfortable eyes, but did not dare to step forward.
It’s because the opponent who pampered the beauty of Bardos was the count.
It is not only the height of the title that matters.
If the title was not hereditary, his swordsmanship was at least a sword expert.
To ordinary knights, Sword Expert was like a nightmare they didn’t want to face.
At that time, Fabian shouted, putting down the beer mug he was holding.
“stop! Son of a bitch!”
The tavern, which had been agitated by his rants, became so quiet that not even breathing could be heard for an instant.
As the knights’ eyes turned to him, Fabian quickly continued his speech.
“That’s what our vice-captain said.”
Elio asked with an absurd face.
“When did I?”
“He also said, ‘To you, a bardos is a necklace of pearls around a pig’s neck.’”
“I?”
“Yes, I heard you carefully.”
“Are you crazy?”
“no. The way the vice-captain looked at the count was definitely like that.”
“It’s not? I was just like, ‘What is that asshole?’ I saw it?”
For a moment, the eyes of the knights turned to Count Victor Kern.
Count Victor Cairn, who had suddenly become an asshole, freed the woman he was holding and stood up.
