Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1186
Episode 1186. Elio did not immediately respond to Marquis
Gosling Knauf’s question.
For some reason, it doesn’t feel like his story is over yet.
As expected, Marquis Gosling Knauf continued to speak passionately.
“Even though we haven’t met for a while, I still consider you like a little brother. So, he ignored all the requests of the imperial nobles to investigate the northern nobles. Do you think that’s all there is to it? Considering the size of Count Omar’s estate, financial support for more than a year would be difficult, so he was preparing to sponsor him on his behalf. is this the answer? Did you really have to become a great champion of Benzel?”
Marquis Gosling Knauf looked at Viscount Elio Lagoa with eyes full of resentment.
On the one hand, Elio could understand his feelings.
Of course it’s just to understand.
It reminded me of how my father-in-law in the past was so angry that he even cut himself off.
However, the Marquis of Knauf was so low-quality that he could not be compared to the lofty father-in-law, so he felt sorry for thinking of his father-in-law for a moment.
‘I’m sure my father-in-law is doing well.’
In the face of the enraged Marquis Knauf, Elio didn’t care about his opponent to the extent that he missed Namgung Byeok, the Sword King.
“Why is there no answer?”
“Oh is that it? older brother. I really liked him because he was human and unlike other great nobles, he was free-spirited.”
“Why did such a person become a champion of Benzel? Why is there a difference between words and actions?”
“Why did you become a champion of Benzel? Of course, it’s because what you’re doing is bullshit.”
Marquis Gosling Knauf was startled by Elio’s rant and threw his upper body back.
I swear to God, it was the first swear word I heard in my life.
He once wandered the back alleys out of curiosity, but no one had done anything so corrupt in front of him.
“This world is a trashy place, but what you did to Benzel was the dirtiest and most disgusting thing. If I hadn’t been close to my older brother, I would have pulled out his limbs right away. So, you should rather thank me. Until the day of the duel, the limbs are still attached. I’m not the kind of person who puts off today’s work until tomorrow. However, I put off my older brother’s work until tomorrow. Do you know how difficult that is for me? Even now, I’m holding back from wanting to pull out my older brother’s tongue.”
Marquis Gosling Knauf had the will to kill at Viscount Elio Lagoa’s continued verbal abuse, but he held it back with superhuman self-control.
It was because he was not prepared to counter the magic swordsman’s magic.
He calmed down his anger and asked with the dignity of an aristocrat.
“What did I do that made me so repulsive?”
“Are you asking because you don’t know right now? You hanged the innocent knight and the person in charge of the port management because Benzel didn’t respond to your request!”
“They were hanged for their sins. The knight dared to kill the task force’s baron, and the port manager took a large bribe. Everything was done according to legal procedures. If you wish, I can arrange for you to meet the witnesses involved in the matter.”
At Marquis Knauf’s calm explanation, Elio chuckled.
“You don’t know about me, brother, but you don’t know too much. It’s something that both brothers and sisters obviously know, so isn’t it embarrassing to say that?”
For a moment, a bitter smile spread across Marquis Gosling Knauf’s face.
“That is the noble way. But not being honest is the same.”
“Am I? If I’m honest, I’m shit? What lie did I tell you?”
“The reason you became a great warrior is not because of what I did to Benzel.”
“Then what is it?”
“Because of Benz. Are you going to come all the way here and deny it?”
Marquis Gosling Knauf believed that Benzel was the mistress of Viscount Helio Lagoa.
Because if it weren’t for that, things like now couldn’t happen.
Money and women are behind every betrayal.
Elio, who did not immediately understand Marquis Knauf’s words, tilted his head.
“Why benzel?”
“Because Benzel is your mistress, isn’t that why you became a warrior for her?”
“Isn’t it?”
“Pu-huh! Aren’t you ashamed to say that, since you both know that?”
“Aren’t you ashamed to say no? Don’t be fooled into thinking that because you live like that, everyone else will live like that too. Unlike my brother, benzels are not my taste.”
“Isn’t that your taste?”
Marquis Gosling Knauf looked at Viscount Elio Lagoa with bewildered eyes.
Benzel was a woman with a beauty that could only be seen at a large banquet in the capital.
However, seeing Viscount Lagoa’s undisturbed eyes, it was the truth.
“You mean that Benzel is not your woman, but has become her champion?”
“My older brother did such trashy things. Someone has to relieve the grudges of those who died unjustly.”
“So you left? Against me, Marquis Gosling Knauf?”
“Yes, when I see poop on the street, I always clean it up.”
“Whoop whoop.”
Marquis Gosling Knauf shook his shoulders and laughed.
Deeper emotions than when I doubted the relationship between Benzel and Viscount Helio Lagoa slowly came up.
It seems that he was underestimated by his opponent.
The inferiority complex built up by his older brother, Archduke Kaiser Knauf, was ignited.
After laughing for a while, he spoke slowly.
“Viscount Elio Lagoa. I heard that you are called the guardian of Hirhera by defeating the demon lord, the lord of Slash Land? So, did you think I was worth fighting for?”
“Can I be honest?”
“However much.”
“It’s embarrassing, but I don’t have a history of fighting opponents stronger than me. because? Because I also want to live a long time.”
“Did I look weak?”
“If you thought you were stronger than me, I pushed Benzel’s back to tell you to go to him. Benzel is not even my family, so why am I doing a great battle? They say that when I meet a scary shit, I also avoid it.”
Marquis Gosling Knauf’s eyes sank coldly.
Benzel is no longer meaningful.
He sincerely wanted to kill Viscount Elio Lagoa – who was grinning before his eyes.
“I thought it would be a good relationship, but it turned out to be a bad relationship.”
“It wasn’t me who turned a good relationship into a bad relationship, it was my older brother.”
Elio didn’t say a word.
He sincerely hated this fucking world and the actions of the Marquis Knauf.
In my mind, I wanted to destroy the entire empire, but I endured that much.
It is because he did not regard himself as ‘a member of this world’.
“I will wake up first. See you at the arena.”
“Please. I’m going to have a little bit of a good meal. oh and brother I wasn’t going to say this, but since we’re brothers and sisters, I’ll say something. It’s time for a duel. If you want to live, don’t harbor the current murderous intent. No matter how good your family background is, you can die.”
“Are you saying that you won’t kill unless you have the intent to kill?”
“The purpose is to receive an apology and compensation. If my older brother dies, there will be no one to claim compensation for.”
“Whoops. don’t note But don’t you believe in yourself too much? You seem to have forgotten who I am, but I am the Marquis Gosling Knauf.”
“I told you. To me, hyung-nim is just a piece of shit whose personality is garbage. sorry. You shouldn’t talk like this to your brother. Please understand. I’m in such a bad mood right now… the words just come out.”
Elio went back and forth like a drunk.
Marquis Gosling Knauf glanced around the table.
There was no alcohol in sight.
But Viscount Elio Lagoa’s face was flushed red like a drunk.
‘Crazy guy.’
Marquis Gosling Knauf, whose hair had fallen off, got up from his seat and went outside.
I felt so dirty that I just didn’t want to go back to the dorm.
If only the mana field device had been installed in the Sea Breeze Tavern, he wouldn’t have waited until tomorrow.
I heard all the low-quality curses that I had never heard in my life for a while.
He trudged along and stopped in front of a tavern on the outskirts of the harbor.
Then came the voice of Count Keitha Coldwall, the head of the task force.
“So what happened to that Arcos Adal? Did you confirm death?”
“I do not know. I left the place after that. If you’re lucky, you’ll be rescued by a passing boat, but that’s the devil’s sea.”
Judging by the childish tone of the answering voice, it was clear that it was Baron Fabian Cloud.
I told the special unit commander to treat northern nobles, so it seems he came to the tavern.
He turned slowly and separated his steps with the sea breeze tavern.
The friendly atmosphere is only until today.
After the duel tomorrow, no one will go out to sea alive again.
For the sake of diplomatic relations between the Northern Kingdom and the Empire, it was appropriate.
As the night progressed, the meeting at the tavern ended.
Count Omar of Larva and Baron Fabian Cloud left the tavern first.
Countess Keitha Coldwall muttered as she poured the half-remaining Nero Joyce into her mouth.
“I don’t feel good.”
Then Viscount Colin Mescal, a staff member, carefully pointed it out.
“Is it because of the story of sinking the pirate ship?”
“I’ve never heard of a prosecutor like that before. Isn’t that a difficult thing even for Archduke Knauf?”
“It could be a made-up story.”
“I also said that to His Excellency the Marquis, but tomorrow is a duel. Why lie about what will become clear tomorrow?”
“…”
Viscount Colin Mescal couldn’t answer.
Even if you think about it, you think it’s not like that.
“Walk with me for a minute.”
Countess Keitha Coldwall strode out into the night.
Viscount Colin Mescal hurriedly followed him.
Countess Kaysa Coldwall, who was walking towards the port, suddenly asked.
“Who is the best knight in the task force with a magic gun?”
“I am Baron Juan Casas. He was a marksman who was known for being a musketeer.”
“If you are a sword beginner, the power of magic bullets must be considerable, right?”
“I heard that it can kill quite a few monsters in one shot.”
Thinking of something, Count Keitha Coldwall took out a magic bullet from her bosom and handed it to Viscount Colin Mescal.
“What is this?”
“During the Imperial War, in order to assassinate the kingdom’s sword master, a special magic bullet was produced at the Tabula Mage Tower. And I named it Excitium.”
“Ah….”
“But Excitium wasn’t used on the battlefield. A peace treaty was signed before it went into production. After that, the development of Excitium was abandoned by the great nobles. There is no great noble who would like the appearance of magic bullets that kill sword masters.”
“Is this the excitium?”
Countess Keitha Coldwall nodded.
“When I received this mission, the owner of the Taboola Magic Tower came to visit me. It seems that the information that we are going to investigate the northern nobles has leaked out.”
“We will work harder to crack down on the inside of the Inspection Department.”
“Still, it’s rather fortunate that I got the excitium that I thought disappeared thanks to the leaked information. They say that the man who destroyed Taboola Tower was Viscount Lagoa. Do you really want me to kill him with excitium?”
“her! Wasn’t it broken by the explosion at the Magic Engineering Lab?”
“Tell them to shoot during the duel. There won’t be a second chance. There is only one excitium.”
“yes.”
So ahead of the duel, a plan was made to assassinate Viscount Elio Lagoa.
