Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1178
Episode 1178. Sir, do you remember what happened last night?
When Marquis Gosling Knauf saw Viscount Helio Lagoa, his first thought was ‘It’s worth a try’.
Humans have an affinity.
For example, there are people who are secretly burdensome from the first meeting, and there are people who are considered easy on the contrary.
If you happen to fight both sides, surprisingly, the result comes out as you first feel. People who are burdened are driven and those who are easy are overwhelmed.
The feeling when I first saw Viscount Elio Lagoa was closer to the latter.
The preconceived notions I had until I met him were shattered.
Marquis Gosling Knauf rather regained his composure after meeting Viscount Elio Lagoa.
At that time, Count Larva Omar took a step forward and said hello.
“I am Count Larva Omar of the Kingdom of Baylem. And this is Viscount Elio Lagoa from the Kingdom of Escatos.”
Count Larva Omar pointed at Viscount Elio Lagoa.
After the introductions of both sides, Count Keitha Coldwall turned to Marquis Gosling Knauf.
I am asking if I can introduce myself.
When Marquis Gosling Knauf nodded, Count Keitha Coldwall introduced the Marquis – with a slightly exaggerated gesture.
“Let me introduce you to one more person. You are Marquis Gosling Knauf, who is called the ‘supreme sword’ of the Archduke Knauf family, the great swordsman of the Londinium Empire and the sacred ground of knights.”
When a special title is attached to the title of a great noble, it means that they are not merely inherited titles.
Earl of Larva Omar, who was well aware of the Knauf family, hurriedly lowered his head.
“It is an honor to meet you, Your Excellency, Marquis Gosling Knauf.”
In the case of Fabian, he bowed to the waist in front of the name of the Grand Duke of Knauf.
This is because, as Countess Kaysa Coldwall said, the Grand Duchess of Knauf is a sacred place for knights.
When Elio was told that the opponent was a marquis, he nodded without hesitation.
Marquis Gosling Knauf nodded with a satisfied face.
I thought they would come out stiff because they are nobles in the north, but they are polite enough to make them likeable.
He originally came to fight, but he liked the attitude of the northern nobles, so he decided to watch a little longer.
There was also something I didn’t want to do as Countess Keitha Coldwall wished.
In any case, when Marquis Gosling Knauf had a crush on him, the atmosphere became friendly.
Marquis Gosling Knauf moved to the port’s tavern with Elio’s party.
The special forces knights who ran first sent all the guests who were in the sea breeze.
After a while, the Marquis of Gosling Knauf, Countess Kaysa Coldwall, and Helio and Countess Larva Omar sat across the table in the middle.
Due to the structure of the table for four, Fabian could not fit into the seat and sat separately, but he was satisfied with being inside the tavern with access controlled.
After a simple meal, Marquis Gosling Knaop raised a beer mug.
“For the peace of the North and the Empire.”
Elio and Count Omar of Larva shouted after him without hesitation.
Then Marquis Gosling Knauf emptied his glass at once.
Count Keitha Coldwall and Count Larva Omar also emptied their glasses, but Elio was not a glutton by nature, so he only took two sips and got off.
Marquis Gosling Knauf said while looking at Viscount Elio Lagoa’s glass.
“Sir Lagoa must be a poor drinker.”
“Although alcohol is weak, I don’t drink too much of anything at one time.”
“Do you have a prudent personality in everything?”
“no. Just eat.”
“The savage tribes say they eat a lot at once. Kyung is a little different.”
Elio understood the Marquis’ words.
It seems that the savage tribes, who did not have enough food, ate too much.
Countess Keitha Coldwall interrupted.
“Sir Lagoa is good at swordsmanship. There would be no people coveting his things.”
Elio glanced at Count Keitha Coldwall.
I don’t know if I’m encouraging myself or ignoring it.
As the atmosphere became strange, Marquis Gosling Knauf quickly changed the subject.
“How is the situation in northern Lagoa? The Empire is far away, so you should be able to hear the proper news.”
Elio replied calmly.
“After defeating the Demon Lords, Tamion has been quiet. The crack in the ice wall is also getting smaller as you remove the Charat sprinkled by the warlocks. We predict that it will be restored if all Charat are removed.”
“Charat? Are you referring to the cursed bone fragments?”
“That’s right. I don’t know exactly how many were sprayed, but I’m recovering quite a few every day.”
“Black magicians are also human beings who live on the continent, so why did they do that? Do you know why?”
“It is said that warlocks are human in appearance, but what is inside them is close to that of a monster. They say that if their master tells them to kill their family, they will kill their family too.”
“You mean the owner ordered it?”
“That’s right.”
“Is the master of the warlocks… Magnum Opps?”
“Yes, the warlocks testified to that. The reason we came here is to catch their master, the Magnum Opps.”
“hmm!”
Marquis Gosling Knauf, who was silent, asked again.
“Is there any possibility that the master of the warlocks gave false information to the warlocks?”
“I don’t know much about the wizarding world, but I do know one thing for sure.”
“What is it?”
“Your Excellency, do you know that the Meteor Swarm fell on Hirhera?”
“Did something like that happen?”
Marquis Gosling Knauf looked at Countess Keitha Coldwall with surprised eyes.
Then Countess Kaysa Coldwall spoke quickly.
“Your Excellency, this is the first time I’ve heard of it.”
Marquis Gosling Knauf turned her attention to Count Omar of Larva.
“Okay. So what does that have to do with it?”
“It was the work of a warlock named Dylan Dunford who had been captured in Hirhera. Dylan Dunford was a 7th Circle Warlock. How could he be able to use the 9th circle Meteor Swarm?”
“Could it be that Magnum Ops made that possible?”
“That’s right. Magnum Ops even taught Dylan Dunford the dark magic to amplify circles and the meteor swarm. Dylan Dunford said Magnum Opps went back to Celestial Star.”
“Amazing, amazing. I can’t believe it because it’s the story of someone who experienced it all firsthand.”
Marquis Gosling Knauf glared at Count Keitha Coldwall with eyes of reproach.
In this case, at least they had to believe in the existence of the Magnum Ops.
I don’t know if he really went to the Celestial Star or somewhere else.
From then on, Marquis Gosling Knauf actively showed a liking for Viscount Helio Lagoa.
This is because now that the presence of Magnum Ops is certain, he has to be close to a powerful person like Viscount Elio Lagoa.
Not only that.
The temperaments of Marquis Gosling Knauf and Elio matched strangely.
Marquis Gosling Knauf was overshadowed by the light of his older brother, Archduke Kaiser Knauf, and grew up freewheeling thanks to him.
Moreover, as I revealed my female color, I lived with formality. The status of the women he touched ranged from royalty to slaves.
His freewheeling and unconventional temperament matched well with Viscount Elio Lagoa.
On the other hand, Marquis Gosling Knauf was comfortable with Elio as well.
It is often said that emotions are relative.
I can tell if the other person has a crush on me or is hostile without having to say it.
Elio sensed that Marquis Gosling Knauf approached him casually like a friend even though he was a great aristocrat of the empire.
The Marquis was distinctly different from the other great nobles he had met before.
For example, Duke Cillian Hale and Marquis Claude Bernardo were solemn.
But Marquis Gosling Knauf had none of that.
In terms of strength, it feels like watching a famous master of political affairs.
Marquis Gosling Knauf, who suddenly got drunk, spoke to Viscount Elio Lagoa.
“I like Lord Lagoa. Other nobles look at the background and roll their hair, but Lord Lagoa has none of that. I like people who are the same inside and out as Lord Lagoa.”
Elio also didn’t hate Marquis Gosling Knauf, who was kind to him without regard for formality.
“I also like Marquis Knauf. It’s like seeing my older brother who I left behind in my hometown.”
Of course, the older brother he was talking about is Namgungcheon.
In fact, Marquis Gosling Knauf resembled Namgungcheon in being talkative and liking people. Except for the fact that he likes women.
At those words, Marquis Gosling Knauf was delighted.
“There is a brother like me in my hometown? Ha ha ha! I want to meet someone like me. How about calling me big brother?”
For a moment, Countess Keitha Coldwall’s face stiffened slightly.
This is the problem with Marquis Gosling Knauf.
There is no distinction between construction and construction, so people always make things that go up and down.
What kind of fool is the person who should keep Viscount Elio Lagoa in check?
He was just about to refrain from talking, but Elio quickened.
“Maybe? Then I will call you brother. There is no withdrawal later. older brother!”
Elio, who was getting drunk, took another drink.
As soon as the two of them started acting like brother and sister, Count Keitha Coldwall kept her mouth shut.
Unlike Count Keisa Coldwall, who has a complicated stomach, Count Larva Omar has a relieved expression.
It was to be thankful that Sir Lagoa had not turned the task force into an enemy, but since he became friends with Marquis Gosling Knauf, nothing could have been better.
***
Next day.
Count Keitha Coldwall visited Marquis Gosling Knauf lately.
“Your Excellency, do you remember what happened last night?”
“yesternight?”
Marquis Gosling Knauf tilted his head.
I don’t know what the hell was going on that Count Coldwall had come to me with a serious face since morning.
“Do you remember the words Your Excellency said to Lord Lagoa while he was drunk?”
“What? As you know, he said too much.”
“I am very sorry that you told Lord Lagoa to call you big brother.”
“Oh that? what else do i say Why is it that you are dead in the morning?”
“Have you forgotten what we came here for? We have come to inspect Sir Elio Lagoa’s party.”
Countess Keitha Coldwall’s high-handed words made Marquis Gosling Knauf frown.
“Earl Coldwall.”
“yes?”
“Don’t be cocky. In the Count’s eyes, do I look like an idiot who can’t distinguish between public and private?”
Countess Keitha Coldwall said ‘yes!’ but held it back.
“sorry. It was a word given out of old age.”
“Did I tell you not to investigate him, since I am close to Sir Elio Lagoa?”
“no.”
“Do you think I am a dog in the pit?”
“Absolutely not. How dare I think of such a thing?”
“Everything I say and do has a reason. The order to investigate Benzel’s background is not because of personal feelings. There are things that the Count sees, and there are things that the Marquis sees. Do you think that you are at the same level as me?”
“I couldn’t fathom the deep meaning of the Marquis. Please forgive me.”
“I will give you three days to find out everything about Benzel. Don’t let me down.”
“yes.”
Countess Keitha Coldwall bowed her head and gnashed her teeth inwardly.
In the end, I’m going to finish it with a woman’s back investigation, but I’m going to have a good time!
I don’t know how the Knauf Archduke’s family came up with articles like that bitch.
