Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1123
Episode 1123. This is the county of Omar.
In the kingdom of Baylem, the second prince, Theo Liberato, inherited the throne.
The danger of civil war has disappeared, but that does not mean that the political conflict is over.
The struggle to seize power again began within the 2 Prince faction.
The most famous of the current Second Prince’s aristocrats are Count Paul Herman and Count Gerald Logan.
If Count Paul Herman led the 2nd Prince faction with vigorous political power, Count Gerald Logan, an opposition figure, put an end to the fight by moving Duke Herbert Liberato, the uncle of the princes.
When Teo Liberato III, the second prince, ascended the throne, the aristocrats continued to disintegrate.
Of course, there were Count Paul Herman and Gerald Logan at the center.
Count Paul Herman.
Introspective central hall.
Count Paul Herman and his nobles sat together at a rectangular table.
Prince Lee, whom they had been pushing for, ascended the throne, but the nobles did not look bright.
Count Nebla Aximus continued.
“…Count Larva Omar is with Count Gerald Logan. With this, most of the nobles who supported Prince 1 until the end joined hands with Count Logan.”
“Huh!”
“Such a nasty…”
“Are you trying to do it until the end?”
“There is also a problem with the attitude of Count Logan who accepted them!”
Sighs and angry remarks poured out from among the nobles.
Count Paul Herman also frowned.
The aristocrats who flocked to Count Gerald Logan’s family are marrow opponents from their point of view, who supported the first prince until the end.
The reason why such opponents flocked to Count Gerald Logan is simple.
There were many nobles who supported the 2nd prince in their camp.
On the other hand, there are no aristocrats around Count Gerald Logan, who has been away from the central political arena.
Count Gerald Logan, who suddenly became the real power of the kingdom, absolutely lacked nobles to support him.
It may be inevitable that Count Gerald Logan, who has no one by his side due to his long life as a savage, and the nobles who supported the first prince.
The problem is that the nobles who supported Prince 1 until the end and his camp are enemies.
If that’s the case, it’s obvious that you can’t see what’s going to happen in the future.
It was difficult for the nobles gathered here and Count Gerald Logan to hold hands.
Regardless of Count Gerald Logan’s intentions, it had no choice but to be that way.
Then Count Nebla Aximus spoke.
“We need to root them out before they grow stronger. Count Omar of Larva is an extreme figure who even sent assassins to our side. We must first use our hands before he can move.”
“…”
The central hall, which had been buzzing for a moment, became quiet.
If the sword on the side of the first prince is Count Larva Omar, then the sword on the side of the second prince is Count Nebla Aximus.
Everyone was surprised when he said, ‘You have to root it out.’
The silence didn’t last long.
It is because if the opposing faction seeking their lives had committed themselves to Earl Gerald Logan – another powerful figure in the realm – they would have to move at least to survive.
someone carefully asked.
“Who is the first root to be pulled out?”
“I am Count Omar of Larva. If we eliminate him, the activities of Count Gerald Logan will be reduced for the time being.”
The nobles shook their heads as if they agreed.
Count Paul Herman assisted.
“It would be better to do this before the relationship between Count Gerald Logan and Count Larva Omar deepens. If the relationship between the two of you is ripe, you may take it as a challenge to Earl Gerald Logan. Now, I’m assuming I’ve been attacked by a political opponent…”
In a word, it means to deal with it quickly.
The nobles also agreed with Count Paul Herman.
Killing Count Gerald Logan was burdensome, but Count Larva Omar was different.
No one would dig into the death of Count Omar of Larva now.
***
Elio and Fabian ate near the border checkpoint and then rode off again.
The temperature has certainly risen since entering the Baylem Kingdom.
If Hirhera was in the middle of winter, Baylem Kingdom was in late autumn.
Another thing has changed.
Unlike the Kingdom of Escatos, the Kingdom of Baylem was a village just a short distance away.
Wherever there was a river or a field, there were large and small villages.
So, Elio and Fabian used an inn rather than sleeping.
Around 5:00 PM, Fabian came close to Elio.
“Viscount! You can see the village. Would you like to rest there today?”
“already?”
Elio glanced at Fabian.
Of course, if it was Hirhera, she would take a break, but the sun fell late in Baylam.
The village appeared after an hour or two of driving, so it was early at 5 o’clock.
“My butt hurts.”
“OK.”
Elio did not object.
This is because the weather and a sore hip are separate issues.
Hagisa himself had never ridden a horse for such a long time.
I didn’t feel it well because I scored twice, but it was quite a forced march.
The two entered the village and stopped in front of a clean-looking inn.
Eventually, the two tied the reins to a stake in front of the inn and went inside.
The restaurant on the first floor of the inn was full of customers.
An exclamation escaped from Fabian’s mouth.
“Wow! There are a lot of people.”
“I know. Make sure no one steals the horse.”
“yes.”
Fortunately, the restaurant on the first floor has many windows, so you can see the street at a glance.
The two people who were looking around quickly approached and occupied an empty seat when the guests at the window just woke up.
Before long, a female clerk who appeared to be in her twenties approached with a tired face.
A forced smile appeared on the saleswoman’s face when she belatedly saw the young men’s unusual attire and well-groomed longswords.
“What would you like?”
After glancing at Elio’s face, Fabian asked back.
“What are you good at in this house?”
“Everything is delicious.”
“What do people like to eat?”
“Chicken soup and bread.”
“With that. 2 servings.”
“yes.”
Fabian said to the saleswoman who was about to turn around after receiving her order.
“Do you have any beer?”
“yes. Would you like a beer from Baylem? Or should I serve you imperial beer?”
“In Baylum, you should try Baylem beer.”
“All right. I’ll bring you two beers too.”
The saleswoman walked away with frequent steps.
Elio scolded Fabian when he saw the clerk’s ass.
“What are you looking at?”
“I didn’t see it that way, did I just see it because I saw it?”
“Damn it. Because your eyes are full of lust Tsk tsk!”
“It is lust. I only watched it for a short time because it looked like a desirable thing.”
“It’s called lust.”
“It is a natural phenomenon to focus on beautiful things.”
“Would you say it’s natural for a man you don’t know to stare at Sera’s ass?”
“I have to kill him.”
“I knew it. Guys like you are worse.”
“Then you look at my woman like that, so will you let her live?”
“You look at other women that way too when you go out.”
“I just stood out and saw it naturally. I watched it disinterestedly.”
“It’s selfish to say that it’s coveted, man.”
“Did I say I was greedy?”
“I listened carefully.”
“Why did I do that?”
“So make it clear. When you see a woman, you go crazy… Tsk!”
“I will be careful. But even the Viscount is not normal.”
“What am I?”
“Miss Erica was drinking like that next to her, which she can’t even drink well… Didn’t you pretend not to see it?”
“What do I have to do with Miss Erica drinking? I thought I was drunk, so I kindly called the maids.”
“That is wrong. Why do you call the maid there? The Viscount should help. Seeing that you put a lot of effort into the Viscount.”
“It was because it wasn’t my taste. If you don’t like me, it’s natural to refuse. Do you respond to everyone?”
“Isn’t Miss Erica nobody? Not one or two knights hanged Miss Erica…”
“Yeah, no.”
“How did that person get married?”
“My wife was my ideal type.”
“…”
Fabian had nothing more to say.
Judging from the fact that he met and married his ideal type, he is a normal man.
“Would you accept it if I said yes to Miss Erika?”
“There’s no way something like that could happen, right?”
“What if something like that happened? Are you Sarah? Are you Miss Erica?”
“Can’t I choose both?”
“Ah! You heartless bastard!”
Elio slapped Fabian on the back of the head.
As Fabian scratched his head with a frown on his face, the dish he ordered was served.
Chicken soup and large chicken legs were floating one by one.
Elio said with a satisfied face, holding a chicken leg in his hand.
“Wow! I thought the chicken would have dipped its feet in and passed by… Do you give me a leg?”
“Iknow, right. I don’t know if it’s because they are generous or if this house is special.”
The two stopped talking for a while and focused on the chicken soup and bread.
Soon after, a saleswoman came with a beer.
“I forgot because I was busy with other orders. Originally, the beer should have been served first… I’m sorry.”
“If you’re busy, maybe. I have nothing to apologize for.”
Fabian said softly.
He didn’t even joke with the saleswoman, being conscious of Viscount Elio Lagoa.
The saleswoman looked at the two knights with new eyes and returned to her original position.
“Did you see the saleswoman looking at me with respect? Only the Viscount says anything to me, and I am this kind of person.”
“Did you even check the saleswoman’s reaction? Aww! A guy with no sincerity.”
It was time for the two of them to squabble over Fabian’s attitude.
The voices of the men who were conversing at a distance rose.
“What is it that our Count Omar regrets about going under Count Logan?”
“It’s true that Count Omar’s situation is not good.”
“What’s wrong?”
“Are you asking because you don’t know? It’s all bad.”
“It may seem that way now, but I’m still not Earl Logan.”
“I don’t know what this friend is. If there’s a noble in Baylem who’s better than Earl Logan, tell me. there is?”
“Earl Logan has no connections in the central political world. He hit the jackpot by having a daughter, but look who’s around him. doesn’t exist. There is no one.”
“Still, it’s a hundred times better than Count Omar’s situation. Only one or two people are aiming for Count Omar. Right now I’m just passing it because of the atmosphere, but how long do you think Count Paul Herman will be like that? If Count Omar wants to live, he has no choice but to go under Count Logan.”
“So the ‘Tiger of Baylem’ goes under the ‘Old Horse’?”
“There are rumors that he has already entered.”
“It must have been something someone like you made up. It’s a rumor. The bowls of the two are different. Can a cauldron fit into a beer cup? Who is Count Omar?”
Elio glanced at the two middle-aged men talking loudly.
Looking at the outfit and the weapons he was wearing, it was clear that he was a knight.
He’s only a knight, so he doesn’t hesitate to criticize nobles, but commoners don’t even dare to mention it.
Elio asked Fabian.
“Do you know who Count Omar is?”
“I don’t know. How do I know the Earl of Baylem?”
Then the merchant sitting next to him leaned over and whispered.
“This is Count Omar.”
