Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1367
Episode 1367. good day?
The Southern Kingdom’s great counterattack pushed the Imperial Army to the Shade Kingdom, but the front line soon fell into a stalemate.
Although the Steel Corps, which had the Battalion unit as its main axis, was destroyed, the Imperial Army still had the Phantom Unit and the Shadow Unit armed with Excitium.
During the Battle of Feromuros, the two units were surprised by the power of Arthenium and could not properly respond.
However, after figuring out how to deal with Artenium, the Phantom and Shadow troops managed to block the Southern Kingdom’s offensive, albeit insignificantly.
During several battles, Arthenium’s limitations were also revealed.
It is difficult to hit the same spot repeatedly in one battle.
However, as the battle lengthened, it often happened that the spot where it was hit once was hit again.
At that time, the core was undoubtedly destroyed, and the steel golem, called the ultimate weapon, stopped maneuvering and fell into a deep sleep.
It could have been solved if the supply of artenium was large, but the Hermetica Mage Tower could not increase the production of artenium as much as the southern kingdom wanted.
It was because, as one of the Three Great Magic Towers, Hermetica Magic Tower, it had no choice but to prioritize the Excitium supply contract with the Empire.
The Southern Kingdom wanted Hermetica Mage Tower to hand over the production of Artenium to another Mage Tower, but it was not easy to come to a conclusion due to a license fee coordination problem between Mage Towers.
Meanwhile, when the southern kingdom army was shaken by the lack of artenium, the imperial army – despite having phantom troops and shadow troops – failed to dominate the battlefield.
Although the Phantom Unit and Shadow Unit are armed with the strategic weapon, Excitium, they are nothing more than gunsmiths.
As the southern kingdom army reduced the front line input of steel golems, the phantom troops and shadow troops also waited at the Imperial Garrison for many days.
Because of the circumstances, the Imperial Army and the Southern Kingdom Army were only repeating meaningless wars of attrition with Rachel, the northern city of the Shade Kingdom.
Then one day.
An airship flew from Krasion, the capital of the Adria Kingdom, to Rachel, the city of the Shade Kingdom, on the front line.
The airship picked up one person from Rachel and returned to Krasion.
On the day the airship arrived in Krasion, King Raul Brosnan invited Count Larva Omar, who was staying at Cusco Castle, to his royal castle.
late afternoon.
The central hall of King Krasion.
King Raoul Brosnan greeted Count Larva Omar with a bright smile.
“Welcome! count. It seems that you haven’t been able to enter the palace lately?”
“It was because you seemed busy with guests.”
The great nobles of the Southern Kingdom, who recently joined the war, frequented Krasion Castle.
Count Omar, a great nobleman in the north, refrained from entering the palace to escape from excessive attention.
“Still, among my guests, the Count is the only honored guest. The other great nobles are too obvious.”
The southern kingdoms that joined the war belatedly set their eyes on the steel golem.
In a way, it was more than an empire that just wanted freedom to enter and exit the Abyss.
“Are you greedy for steel golems too?”
“What else could there be?”
A bitter smile appeared on King Raoul Brosnan’s face.
The southern kingdoms far from the Great Grove regretfully wanted an iron golem.
‘We will fight together, so please share the iron golem’ was their request.
“So what did you decide to do?”
The kingdom that currently has the steel golem is the kingdom of Adria Shade Masdar Bostania.
The Shade Kingdom lost its territory, but it had an army and an iron golem.
“You want three iron golems per kingdom. The Shade Kingdom says they will follow the decision of Masdar and the Kingdom of Bostania… I don’t know what will happen.”
The Adria Kingdom has only recently been successfully excavated.
So other kingdoms were also claiming to excavate themselves.
“What about the kingdoms of Masdar and Bostania?”
“The Masdar Kingdom is in the mood that it doesn’t matter as long as they can win the war, and Bostania has a debt to the Dnirov Kingdom, so they’re only paying attention.”
“Other kingdoms have no experience in directly operating steel golems… Would that be okay?”
“It doesn’t require any special skills to make a steel golem anyway, so there’s not much difficulty. As you know, if you put together steel parts, they will find their place on their own.”
“Still, isn’t unit management another problem?”
“They say they can do well if they gain experience, but what can they say?”
In fact, Adria Shade Masdar The Kingdom of Bostania also used steel golems for the first time in this war, so it was difficult to oppose them.
How many years do you know?
It was ridiculous to pretend to be an expert after only using it for a few months.
Earl Omar of Larva didn’t know that story, but didn’t ask further.
“I think this atmosphere has become heavy for no reason. I didn’t call you to talk about that.”
“Did you have any other business?”
“I asked the Count to come because something very good happened.”
“Is it good?”
Count Larva Omar looked at King Raoul Brosnan with puzzled eyes.
A good thing in a stalemate war?
Besides, he is a great northern nobleman and has nothing to do with this war?
“A while ago, an urgent communication came in from Rachel’s frontline unit. There is a beautiful knight named Baron Sofia Orlova in the Skull Corps’ support unit. Doesn’t that mean she’s pregnant?”
Count Larva Omar tilted his head.
I couldn’t understand why Baron Sofia Orlova’s pregnancy was considered a good thing.
“Your Highness, who is Baron Sophia Orlova, and do you like her so much?”
“Come to think of it, the Count doesn’t know yet. When the Skull Corps recaptured Servo, not far from Feromuros, Count Lagoa and Baron Cloud were staying there.”
“No way…”
“That’s right. It is said that Baron Cloud and Baron Sofia Orlova were passionately in love. After that, the Skull Corps moved to the Shade Kingdom… Not too long ago, the Skull Corps commander informed me that Baron Sofia Orlova was pregnant.”
“It sounds really good.”
“I brought Baron Sofia Orlova to the safety of the rear as a royal airship.”
At the end of his words, King Raoul Brosnan waved his hand at the butler.
The butler, who had gone out quickly, returned with Baron Sofia Orlova.
Eventually, the butler spoke loudly to the king and Count Omar.
“I am Baron Sophia Orlova.”
Baron Sofia Orlova raised the courtesy of nobility to King Raoul Brosnan.
King Raoul Brosnan nodded with a bright smile and said, pointing to Count Omar.
“Beyond Baron Orlova is Count Larva Omar of the Baylem Kingdom. You’re a famous knight, so you’ll know who you are without introducing yourself, right?”
“Yes, aren’t you the sword master called the tiger of Baylem? It’s an honor to meet you. Your Excellency Count Omar. I am Baron Sofia Orlova.”
“Baron Fabian is a free-spirited knight, and now he seems to have found someone to settle down with. Congratulations.”
“thank you.”
After the greeting, King Raoul Brosnan had Baron Sofia Orlova sit across from Count Omar.
After that, I asked Count Omar at all costs.
“Baron Sophia Orlova called her because we couldn’t put her in the front line, even though she was a talent in the Adria kingdom army. She will give birth in nine months, so what would Count Omar want Baron Sofia Orlova to do?”
Count Larva Omar immediately recognized the meaning of the king’s words.
‘So you’re going to marry Baron Fabian.’
Since the baron of the north impregnated the baron of the south, it was not an unreasonable demand.
No, it’s a natural result when both are single.
But no matter how obvious it was, I couldn’t decide it myself.
“Your Highness, as you know, Baron Fabian is a vassal of Count Lagoa. So I can’t step forward and say this and that.”
“That’s true, but can’t you just watch it like this?”
“You are right. I know that the parties will have to meet face to face to resolve this issue. First of all, I think you should inform Baron Fabian about Baron Sophia’s pregnancy. Then he will either come here or tell Baron Sophia to come to the Islands. How is it?”
“It seems fine. But since Baron Sofia Orlova is pregnant, wouldn’t it be better to move with Baron Cloud? It’s a long distance to the island, but I’m saying this because I’m not at all relieved because I’m at war.”
“My thoughts were brief. As Your Highness said, it seems fitting that Baron Fabian is coming. We will do our best to do so.”
When the story was settled, King Raoul Brosnan called the chief of intelligence.
Of course, it is to convey the news through the system.
Count Omar of Larva talked further with Baron Sofia Orlova before returning to Cuzco Castle.

around dinner time.
Fabian, who had been outside all day, returned to Estella in Fermosa.
Elio, who was waiting for his meal at the restaurant, asked with a sullen face.
“What are you doing today? Did you come earlier than usual?”
“I thought Lord Lagoa would be lonely, so we parted early.”
“Isn’t it because Miss Ariette has other schedules?”
“There is something like that.”
“Then it is. You must have come early because of me.”
“What if you two stick together? Isn’t there anything I need right now?”
It was true.
With Magenta as the end, there was no one suspicious of Ushas Undra anywhere in the Empire and the Southern Kingdom, so they were in a state of neglect.
Moreover, even though Elio is the count of the Empire, after the conflict with the crown prince, the great nobility and government offices of the Empire did not help Elio in the slightest.
No, it’s good if you don’t interfere.
Elio was wandering around the islands like islands.
Of course, finding the vanguard of chaos (Ushas Undra) was also sluggish.
Helio, the count of the Empire, was about the same, but the northern baron, Fabian, must have been terrifying.
It would have been even more terrifying if he hadn’t met Ariette Albanora.
After a while, dinner was served, and Elio and Fabian were absorbed in their meal in silence.
Around the time the main dish was reduced by half.
The guests who had finished eating first brushed past Elio.
‘huh?’
Elio, who was diligently using chopsticks, hesitated.
There was a note on the table that hadn’t been there before.
It must have been thrown by someone among the people who had just rushed out.
‘what?’
For a moment, ‘Is this the empire’s strategy to arrest you for espionage?’ I had a suspicion that
However, to do so, there must be a musketeer unit nearby, but there is no sign of that.
Fabian asked as Elio picked up the note with a confused face.
“What is it?”
“I don’t know. Someone threw it a while ago.”
“Be careful. I was arrested without any of that.”
People’s thoughts are similar.
Elio smiled and opened the note and read it.
As he glared at the note with a hard face, Fabian showed interest.
“What do you mean? By any chance, Beauty Bardos asks to meet separately?”
“…”
Instead of answering, Elio handed the note he was holding to Fabian.
Soon after, Fabian’s face changed as if he had seen a ghost.
