Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1280
1280 episodes. When the sky whale disappeared
from sight, Elio and the others moved again.
Merdef bypassed the wounded mercenaries to avoid a fuss.
There was so much water pouring out that there were puddles all around the mercenaries.
Elio crossed one of them out of curiosity.
As the water splashing from the soles of his feet filled up to his knees, he made a fuss like a child.
“Wow! deep! sister! The water is so deep! But is this seawater?”
Then Fabian, who was just as curious as Elio, scooped up the water with his palm and licked it.
“Eh! Squeeze! It’s sea water!”
At Elio and Fabian’s sudden action, Merdef turned his attention to the mercenaries.
Fortunately, they did not pay attention to other things as they repaired the damage.
Still, just in case, Merdef accelerated his pace.
This is because you never know what kind of harm you will face later if you are taken by mercenaries.
Merdef returned to normal speed only after he had distanced himself sufficiently from the mercenaries.
Tynelock, who looked around, muttered to himself.
“I see a lot of wagons around. Is Evrimar Plain safer than other places?”
Taking that as a question, Merdef replied.
“There are many beasts, but they pose no threat to adventurers. Also, there are many mercenaries and adventurers in the plains, so even if monsters appear by chance, they are all dealt with. There are even rumors that humans are more dangerous in Evrimar Plains.”
“Okay. I saw a carriage. Is there anyone who goes alone?”
“yes. The Evrimar plains and Mount Parton are good places to visit in small groups. Since Parton Mountain has been cleared of monsters, then the Evrima Plain is known to be safe because there are many people.”
“What about the monster?”
“Occasionally, monsters that came from Mount Petra advance to the plains. But as you can see, there are a lot of people, so it filters well. I believe in that and go around alone.”
“What if I encounter a robber?”
“Isn’t it because you are confident enough to protect yourself?”
“Is this because you are talented?”
“Not all are like that. There are many people who have lost allies in the Abyss or been kicked out of the party. uh?”
Suddenly, Merdef quickly went to one place and bowed.
“It’s gold!”
A gold nugget the size of a child’s fist glittered in his hand, which was raised into the air.
He grabbed the gold nugget and ran to Elio.
“Count! Gold. There is gold here!”
Elio, who was looking at the gold nugget in Merdef’s hand, asked with an absurd face.
“You pick up gold nuggets like that?”
“The plains of Evrima are famous for open-air gold mining. There should be more gold around here. I also saw something sparkling in the distance, so I went to see if it was gold! Can you believe that these gold nuggets are just rolling around on the ground?”
Merdev’s voice got higher and higher as he went back.
“congratulations. Shall we take a break then? It’s not because of the gold, it’s because the saintess might be tired. Holy Lady, this seems like a good place, so why don’t you take a break and go?”
“okay.”
It seemed obvious, but Luna Mylus didn’t object.
It’s because finding Ushas Undra (Golden Thread) is not something that can be done in a hurry.
After a short break, he asked to go, and Elio pulled out a tent from Mahadam.
Fabian asked when we took out the tent in broad daylight even though it wasn’t even a campground.
“Are you going to camp here?”
“You don’t know if the owner is there until you put up the tent.”
“Are you the owner?”
“Don’t you know the owner of the seat? It’s an open-air gold mine. I have to take your seat.”
“Didn’t you just take a break and go?”
“Even if we take a short break, we want to rest comfortably. What are you inquiring about?”
“No, it’s because I’m surprised that you suddenly take out the tent in broad daylight.”
“So you’re not going to look for gold?”
“I have to find it. What kind of sad words.”
“The tent is being prepared for the saintess. The saintess can’t go around looking for gold pathetically. Did you all hear? I’ll take a break and then go, so each of you can do your own thing.”
In front of the gold, no one asked how long we were going to rest.
While Merdef and Baron Howard Solon pitched their tent, Fabian and Crea headed to the place where Merdef had found the gold.
Everyone except for the saint and the paladin were looking for gold.
Among them, the most zealous is Elio.
In fact, he was in a state of shock when he saw Merdef picking up gold.
Picking up gold nuggets like coins that have fallen on the ground in a marketplace!
I had never heard of such a thing in Kang-ho or Ku-ju.
But in this world, it seems possible.
Seeing Merdef picking up gold nuggets right in front of his eyes, he couldn’t think of anything else.
If you had to pickaxe in a gold mine or if you had to go through the hard work of filtering sand like placer, you wouldn’t have bothered.
But it was just a matter of picking up what fell on the ground.
‘Where are you? Come out.’
Elio walked around with lights on in his eyes.
However, even after turning around several times, there was not even a crumb of gold to be seen, let alone a lump of gold.
When I was determined to turn around one more time, I heard Crea’s tearing cry again.
“It’s gold!”
When he glanced back, he saw Clare raising her arms in a place where she passed by several times.
What she held in her finger was a gold nugget the size of a chestnut.
‘Why didn’t my eyes see it?’
Elio grunted and scoured the ground again.
However, after hours of wandering around, the gold was nowhere to be seen.
I was trudging along, thinking, ‘It seems that it has nothing to do with wealth,’ but someone called from behind.
“Count Lagoa.”
Looking back, it was Baron Howard Solon.
“Because you can call me Adventurer-sama.”
“Ah yes… Adventurer.”
“why?”
“I have something to tell you…”
“What is it?”
“I also want to learn magic and swordsmanship from the adventurer.”
Elio stared at Baron Howard Solon before answering.
Then Baron Howard Solon hurriedly continued.
“Of course I know very well that I am nothing. I have a debt to adventurer-sama, and I can’t ask you to teach me anything…”
“Okay.”
“yes?”
“Are your ears blocked? that you teach What a difficult thing.”
It’s not a big deal anyway, and I’ve already taught it to a few people.
Adding one more Baron Howard Solon would not be a big deal.
Above all, I liked the humanity of Baron Howard Solon, whom I watched closely.
However, he can teach swordsmanship, but magic is a bit different.
He himself does not know magic, so who is he to teach him?
“Thank you! thank you!”
Baron Howard Solon bowed his head in a row with a moved face.
It was only natural that he had been taught by the Grand Master.
“But magic seems difficult.”
“yes?”
The magic swordsman, Baron Howard Solon, looked at Count Elio Lagoa with curious eyes.
“What I’ve learned isn’t magic… It’s like the savagery of the savage tribe.”
“ah! Is that so?”
“Even if I teach you, you won’t learn. Because it uses spiritual power, not mana.”
“okay. Thank you even for the swordsmanship. I will never forget your kindness for the rest of my life.”
“Only in words?”
“….”
Baron Howard Solon, who blinked at what that meant, hurriedly took out a chestnut-sized lump of gold from his bosom.
“It’s not enough, but even this…”
“I think that’s Mr. Crea?”
“I gave it to you.”
“what! Were you two like that?”
“I’m in charge of the finances… so they handed it over to me.”
“Tell me exactly. Don’t make me a thief for nothing. Did Crea give it to you? Did you entrust it?”
“I gave it to you.”
“That’s right, right?”
“…I guess so.”
When Baron Howard Solon responded with a crawling sound, Elio clicked his tongue.
“Tsk tsk! What else is like that? Howard!”
“yes?”
“Put it on the road. And don’t even think about disposing of Mr. Crea’s things at will until you’re sure. okay?”
“Yes….”
Baron Howard Solon took out the gold nugget again.
“And who asked you for money? It means to do it with all your heart and sincerity, rather than just thinking about ending it with words. Got it?”
“yes!”
“Do I look like a money snob?”
“Oh no.”
“Then why are you throwing gold nuggets at me?”
“It was because that was the only thing I had right now. sorry.”
“It’s okay, pay off your debt. I will teach you swordsmanship for free, so you know that.”
“Yes, I will pay you back. thank you.”
Baron Howard Solon glanced at Count Elio Lagoa’s face.
I don’t know the truth that you must pay off the debt while refusing the gold nugget.
Elio taught Baron Howard Solon the ‘small heavenly circuit’ on the spot.
“Can’t you hear it?”
“…yes.”
“Ask Fabian. I’m an experienced person, so I’ll teach you the tricks. Come back when you succeed in the little sky circuit. Go see.”
“All right. thank you.”
Baron Howard Solon nodded and left for another place.
Excited, Elio moved to the tent.
Luna Mylus smiled and said as she saw Elio returning with a sluggish face.
“Is this the face you couldn’t find?”
“I guess it has nothing to do with gold.”
“Things like that happen, too. What did you talk about with Baron Solon?”
“They asked me to teach them swordsmanship.”
“ah. Somehow, it seems to have been hovering around you for the past few days. Are you going to teach me?”
“yes. Seeing Fabian and Sir Omar, he also fits well with Mana.”
“I see. ‘Helio Lagoa style swordsmanship’ will be added to this world.”
“Hehe, it leaves traces of coming and going unintentionally.”
“It’s a trace of coming and going… I like that. Shall I also leave the ‘Luna Mylus style swordsmanship’?”
“That is good. Let’s let people know that we’re actually a couple. Then it will be passed down from generation to generation through the knights of our school.”
Elio wanted to leave a trace of Luna Mylus in that way.
Didn’t they say, “Tigers leave their skins when they die, and people leave their names when they die?”
“okay.”
Luna Mylus’ eyes shone.
I didn’t think much of it at first, but when I heard it, it was fine.
There was also a talented female swordsman nearby, so it wasn’t difficult.
After Crea, no more gold discoverers came out.
As dusk fell, the people returned to their tents one by one.
Before it got darker, Elio took out the tent, bedding, table, etc. from the Mahadam (space storage).
As usual, Merdef Howard Solon Baron Tynelock clung like an ant and set up a tent.
Soon after, as the son-in-law got dark, lights bloomed all over the dark Plain of Evrima.
It was the light of the bonfires lit by adventurers and mercenaries.
Luna Mylus, who was standing side by side with Elio and staring at the light, murmured.
“Maybe the stars of the Abyss rise from the ground and rise into the sky.”
Elio, who was listening, shook his head and said a word.
“There are a lot of people who are crying.”
Paladin Almet Hareb, who stood behind them like a folding screen, frowned.
It was because Count Lagoa threw candles at the saintess’ jewel-like words.
‘Kkeuh! It’s not like that, but why do you like it and go together…’
The combination of the saintess and Count Elio Lagoa is a mystery that can never be known.
