Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1092
Episode 1092. Do you have something to do?
At the word ‘untouchable’, Viscount Roland Bennant, Chief of Staff of Tallinn Kingdom, looked at Count Colin Strong with dubious eyes.
No matter how much you think about it, it sounds absurd and absurd, but the count’s expression was serious.
“Are you saying the rumors about Viscount Elio Lagoa are true?”
“Is it true? Whatever you hear, consider it more than that.”
“…”
Viscount Roland Bennant asked in confirmation.
“Are you saying it’s more than an exaggeration?”
“You’ll know if you’ve experienced it, but I don’t recommend a quarrel with Viscount Lagoa.”
Count Colin Strong stared at Viscount Roland Bennant.
I’ve told you all the stories to tell.
Still, if you want to bite Viscount Elio Lagoa, you can’t help it.
Because there are people who believe you have to see it with your own eyes.
The hesitant Viscount Roland Bennant opened his mouth with difficulty.
“I’m sorry. The fact that the Escatos Kingdom Army refused the official request of our Tallinn Kingdom Marshal… Can we consider the Vice General’s words as the Escatos Kingdom Army’s official position?”
For a moment, a bitter smile appeared on Count Colin Strong’s lips.
Again, it seems wrong.
“Even if you think so, there is nothing you can do about it. You will get the same answer no matter who the Chief of Staff meets.”
“This decision will adversely affect the relationship between the Kingdom of Tallinn and the Kingdom of Escatos.”
“That won’t be it. Learning about Viscount Elio Lagoa will make the friendship between the two countries stronger than ever before.”
Count Colin Strong looked at Viscount Roland Bennant with meaningful eyes.
The kingdom of Raminov, which had been living like an enemy, was only paying close attention to the kingdom of Escatos.
In fact, the relationship between Escatos and Raminov Kingdom was the best in history. It was entirely because of the concession made by Raminov Kingdom.
At that point, Viscount Roland Bennant felt even slightly displeased.
What the vice general said after rejecting the formal request of the Marshal of the Kingdom of Tallinn will make your relationship better than before?
It was said that he was looking at the kingdom of Tallinn as a protector.
“Can you take responsibility for what you just said?”
“What are you talking about?”
“The Vice-General rejected the official request of our Marshal and said that the friendship between the two countries would grow even closer.”
“Ah, if that’s the case, take responsibility. If you meet the great general, His Excellency the Marquis Bernardo, he will tell you the same thing.”
Viscount Roland Bennant, impatient, jumped out of his seat.
“All right. I will pass on the words you told me to Duke Ulrik Lundgren without leaving out a word.”
It’s a threat, depending on what you hear.
However, there was no change in Earl Colin Strong’s attitude.
“Let it be. I hope you make a wise decision.”
Viscount Roland Bennant, who had been gnashing his teeth in contempt and glaring at Colin Strong, left without looking back.

Hirhera Tallinn Kingdom Army Garrison.
Viscount Roland Bennant, the chief of staff, immediately went to the general and reported the results of the interview with the Vice General of the Kingdom of Escatos.
“…Earl Colin Strong refused the Marshal’s official request, even making a false statement that the friendship between the two kingdoms would grow closer.”
“Did you really say that?”
“Yes, I said I would tell the Duke… and he said yes.”
“I’m crazy. What do counts and the like believe in such nonsense?”
Duke Ulrik Lundgren is a sword master.
A person who can’t even look at a duke when they meet on the battlefield is such a fool?
Viscount Roland Bennant said to Marquis Walter Stormier, the general with an absurd face.
“This happened because the kingdom of Escatos looked down on our kingdom of Tallinn. Aren’t they living under the illusion that they are the strongest in the North?”
Marquis Walter Stormier shook his head as if he agreed.
The kingdom of Tallinn is the strongest kingdom in the northern part recognized by others.
However, the Kingdom of Escatos believed in its sword masters and did not acknowledge the obvious gap.
Of course, there was a reason why the Escatos Kingdom came out that way.
In fact, the power of the Kingdom of Escatos is similar to that of the Kingdom of Tallinn.
However, the kingdom of Escatos had to put in nearly half of the kingdom’s army to stop the monsters in the north.
Unlike them, the kingdom of Tallinn, located in the center of the north, had no power leakage and was evaluated as stronger than the kingdom of Escatos.
Of course, when a war breaks out, the kingdom of Escatos will turn the troops that prevented the demons to the rear, but then it will be ruined regardless of the outcome.
Because the entire kingdom of Escatos will be trampled by the Demon Beast.
For that reason, like the kingdom of Escatos, the northernmost kingdoms tried to maintain good relations with the kingdoms located relatively in the rear.
There is also a need to receive a stable supply of grain, but it is because when war breaks out, it is unconditionally their loss.
“The Jade Lake is now occupied by the Escatos Kingdom, right?”
“That’s right.”
“Meet Sir Raminov’s chief of staff.”
“Do you intend to support Raminov?”
“It’s not yet, so finish it on the line of giving a sneak peek. In case of emergency, the kingdom of Tallinn will stand on the side of the kingdom of Raminof. Actually, the enemy will decide what to do, but the enemy’s thoughts will not be different from mine.”
He decided to pressurize the Escatos Kingdom with the Raminope Kingdom.
‘If they knew where they were, they wouldn’t be able to say nonsense like they are now.’
They praised them for their hard work in Hirhera, so they seem to know that they are the strongest in the North.
“All right.”
“Don’t give a definite answer, just smell the escatos kingdom’s impatience at me. When there are some tangible results, I will report to the enemy at that time.”
“yes!”
The eyes of the chief of staff, Viscount Roland Bennant, who had been given a special order by the general, shone.
After a while, as the chief of staff left, Grand Marquis Walter Stormier approached the northern map hanging on one side.
If the mercenary king, Chris Dunamis, was aiming for Viscount Elio Lagoa personally, the secret exchange with Raminof Kingdom was to harass the Escatos Kingdom.
“Viscount Elio Lagoa and the Kingdom of Escatos… A fox has been king for too long in a place where there are no tigers. please come down now The owner of the north is not Escatos, but our Tallinn Kingdom.”
***
A change has come to Hirhera, which has grown rapidly as a military city.
This is because the kingdoms of the north decided to build walls around the growing rift and started scrambling to send engineers.
Hirhera, which used to be a military city, quickly turned into a military-industrial complex.
The city was crowded with engineer workers and slaves.
Blacksmiths and shops were established all over the city, where there were only bars and inns.
There have also been changes to the rift monitoring unit.
In the past, only one company was deployed, but now two companies are deployed.
It is to protect the technicians and worker slaves who do the construction of the castle.
After finishing the rift monitoring mission, Fabian visited the Phoenix Knights in the evening.
“Vice-captain.”
“Hey, did you come down today?”
“yes. Let’s go out to celebrate.”
“What is there to celebrate?”
As he spoke, Elio changed into street clothes.
“Didn’t I safely finish monitoring the rift?”
“What does that have to do with me?”
“Am I not the Viscount’s right-hand man? You should congratulate your right-hand man after completing his mission safely.”
“So let’s go to Chrysopedio again?”
“why? Are you tired of beer already?”
“No way. let’s go.”
Elio strode towards the entrance of the barracks.
Fabian, who was walking down the street, said as if he had suddenly remembered.
“Are there people in the street now? Isn’t it really amazing?”
“what?”
“Aren’t there people who didn’t exist and where did they come from? Isn’t it amazing just to look at it?”
“It’s strange, bitch. You just recruited engineers, workers, and slaves from the north to build the castle.”
“Isn’t that what I mean? It’s amazing that people are crowded in this cold Hirhera.”
“Why is it strange that the kingdom calls people to give money?”
Then Fabian slapped me in the chest as if frustrated.
“ah! The Viscount was very dry even if his emotions were dry.”
“You’re not skinny, so all you do is talk about bars like that?”
“What is life? You have to find the little happiness.”
“Either way. How’s the area around the rift? Isn’t it about time that monsters and monsters appear?”
“Even if you don’t, I was going to tell you that. About five or six of them appear every day. I heard that the damage of the kingdom army is enormous. Especially in places like the Kingdom of Tallinn, it is said that there is a song.”
“I heard that the kingdom of Tallinn has some military power, right?”
“What do you do? I have little practical experience. Surrounded by northern kingdoms on all sides, I saw a monster here for the first time.”
“Then you must have suffered some damage.”
“It seems to have suffered as much damage as when the kingdom of Baylem first came.”
“I will get used to it soon though. Look at Baylem and Raminof Kingdom. You are quiet.”
“Speaking of Raminov Kingdom. There are strange rumors these days.”
“Strange rumors?”
When Elio showed interest, Fabian quickly changed the subject.
“I will go to Chrysopedio and tell you. It’s a bit long.”
“That’s it.”
Elio nodded his head indifferently.
Chrysopedio.
It was early evening, and the bar was so crowded that it was hard to find an empty seat.
Fabian looked around the inside and stuck out his tongue.
“Wow! Why are there so many people? I will rake the money by the very hook.”
“I know. Good business.”
Elio looked around at the guests with tired eyes.
The customers seemed to be half knights and half ordinary people.
Ordinary people must be nobles or rich top officials.
The owner hurriedly ran to the two who turned around shaking their heads.
“welcome. Now I see that you have come to do other things.”
Fabian, who thought he was walking in vain, grumbled at his master.
“What do you see? there are no vacancies I’ll come next time.”
“no. Inside, there is a room for VIPs. I will take you there.”
Originally, the bar room was used only by the great nobility.
The owner said he would give the room to Viscount Elio Lagoa.
Fabian’s face lit up at the unexpected suggestion.
“Is there an empty room?”
“Yes, but the room costs twice as much for food. Are you okay?”
At the word double, Fabian looked at Viscount Elio Lagoa.
Elio nodded.
It wasn’t really a problem since he only had to reduce the two visits with Fabian to one.
After Elio gave permission, the owner hurriedly took the two to the VIP room.
When I entered the room, I couldn’t hear any outside noise.
Fabian, who sat down, smiled and opened his mouth.
“Good for you. Even if it wasn’t, it was a bit cautious, so I needed a quiet place.”
“What?”
“It is said that the Kingdom of Tallinn and the Kingdom of Raminov secretly joined hands. Do you know?”
“It’s the first time I’ve heard of it. By the way, do you have something to join hands with?”
Elio tilted his head.
The eight kingdoms gathered in Hirhera have already formed an allied army, so what is the meaning of holding hands?
“Yes. Cracks aren’t everything in the kingdom.”
“What are you talking about?”
“It is said that the Rift and the operation of the kingdom are separate. The rifts are closed together, but they will fight separately for the benefit of their kingdom.”
“Do you have something to do?”
“Hasn’t the Raminof Kingdom and our Escatos Kingdom been fighting for a long time over the Jade Lake? The Jade Lake is currently occupied by our Escatos Kingdom. If the Kingdom of Tallinn supports the Kingdom of Raminof…the Jade Lake may be taken away with their eyes open.”
“No, it’s not cool to gather strength in the rift, but you fight over something like that?”
Elio looked at Fabian with bewildered eyes.
I know that humans are greedy, but I don’t know what they are doing right before destruction.
