Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 739

Episode 739. Killing and worshiping are inseparable.

When Angelos Benito left, the Elyos commanders also returned to their campsites.

When the Elyos left the wooden ship, the Gokbunjo union cautiously approached Yeonjeokha.

“Daejangnim. We have prepared the boat you said at the dock right next door.”

“Lead ahead.”

“yes.”

When the grain-making union turned around, they picked up the corpse of Menua, who was in a row.

Even though it was a demon god that had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, it was so light that it didn’t feel good.

It’s not like drinking, it’s like holding a child.

He did not regret the decision he had made in front of the Elyos Crown Prince.

After a while, I got on the ferry prepared by the union of the rowing grain mills.

Even though not much time had elapsed, the ship was loaded with lumber.

I was grateful to the gokbunjo union for diligently preparing for the funeral.

“great job. Go see.”

The Gokbunjo union was stabbed by unexpected warm words and left after showing a deep tightening at the waist.

After stacking the stacked timbers like a bed, Menua’s corpse was laid on top of it.

Then a wind blew up and drove the boat to the center of Baekriha.

The monsters came rushing in, but they released an aura of rivalry and pushed them away from the ship.

When he could not see the light of Okcheon Port, he set fire to the wood with a fire extinguisher.

The fire started below and went up.

The river wind that blew in just at the right moment engulfed even the ferry.

As Menua’s tiny body was engulfed in flames, he let out a long whistle.

Whii Iik-.

hee hee hee-!

I wondered if I could hear a horse neighing in the night sky, and then a divine beast came down.

The couple jumped up and rode on the back of the painter.

Hwa-pung circled around the ferry, as if he knew the heart of the regretful lover.

The part exposed above the water was almost burnt, but the ferry sailed along Baekriha.

Then, at one point, a monster jumped onto the ferry.

Soon after, the monster and the boat disappeared without a trace with the sound of ‘splash!’

“uh!”

An exclamation flowed from the mouth of the young enemy who was watching.

That was an unexpected ending.

I thought it would burn finely until the end and become ashes, but a monster invaded.

– No surprise. Isn’t that the natural end?

“I wanted to send you off in a nicer way.”

-While you were looking for cool, I was tired of lingering around in the same spot.

“Ah thank you.”

He stroked the nape of the belatedly matching painting style.

The painting style is ‘Purple!’ After a pleasant tour, they flew to Okcheon Port.

***

Next day.

The Elyos Expeditionary Force and the masters of the three sects boarded boats and crossed Baekri River.

To be precise, to subdue the demons east of Hansanju.

The ships moved non-stop and put down Elyos and sect masters in Sacheonpo.

The Elyos troops and sect masters who crossed the river first began to subdue monsters centering on Sacheonpo.

Not a single cunning demon and devil remained.

Only monsters with low intelligence were killed while walking around the city and streets as before.

Throughout the subjugation, morning and evening, the Elyos commanders and the representatives of the sect held meetings.

The meeting was only about sharing opinions about ‘how far we subjugated today and where we should go tomorrow’.

These are really trivial topics when you think about the past when you were preparing for the waterfront competition.

Still, every Elyos commander attended the meeting.

It was only after the Sacheonpo area was completely recaptured that the purpose of their meeting was revealed.

Sacheonpo.

Pungwollu.

The guest cup, once used by the demon god, was now used as a lodging for the great master.

After breakfast, the Elyos commanders and the representatives of the sect gathered in the guesthouse of Pungwolru.

Shortly thereafter, meetings held twice a day began.

Bell Sonia, the chief of staff, stood in front of the group after bowing silently to the Grand Master.

“As of yesterday, we subdued Mount Oji in the north, Muryangha in the south, and even the entrance to Dongbangseong in the east. I think I will be able to regain the eastern part of Hansanju in 15 days.”

It was a pretty optimistic prediction, but the Elyos and humans nodded their heads.

In fact, it wasn’t difficult now that the Demon God had died and the demons and demons had fled.

After taking a peek at the faces of the heads of the sect, Bellsonia continued.

“But there is a problem. The point is that the monsters who were kicked out of Hansanju are flocking to the north and south. The damage to Wansanju (south) and Ungcheonju (north) will be severe.”

“…”

Everyone waited for Bellsonia’s next words.

This is because he is not the general staff who will speak out without taking any countermeasures.

“Currently, Hansanju can be recaptured with only the existing troops. So, I plan to divide the four thousand troops sent by the crown prince into two and send them to the south and the north, respectively.”

For a moment, a strange aura permeated the audience.

It was because of Bellsonia’s inadvertent remark, ‘Degradation of the crown prince’.

Crown Prince Angelos Benito returned after having his arm cut off by a rival enemy.

News should have reached the Angelos royal family by now.

The Elyos commanders and the heads of the sect silently let out a long sigh.

Belatedly realizing her mistake, Bellsonia, the chief of staff, hurriedly changed the subject.

“Hum, our mission is to subdue the monsters of Hansanju and Yeongcheonju. When the demons of Hansanju are cleared, we must advance to Yeongcheonju. However, as the main focus was on Hansanju, I think Yeongcheonju will be relatively easy. So that’s what you say.”

Bellsonia, the chief of staff, turned her gaze to the Grand Master.

Even the Elyos commanders, who already knew what she was going to say, paid attention to the Grand Master.

The rival Elyos suddenly tilted their heads when they saw him.

It was because there was no place for him to step out after crossing Baekriha.

“Daejangnim. Didn’t you set the time for the transfer of the Astronomical Gate to November?”

“So what?”

“Since the war is likely to end earlier than initially expected, can we advance the transfer of the Heavenly Gate?”

He blinked his eyes without saying anything.

In the midst of talking about the recapture of Hansanju, he was taken aback when the Astronomical Gate suddenly came out.

Could it be that the reason why the meeting was held without any particular topic was to say that?

The war ended quickly, so I understand the desire to advance the schedule.

I would have said yes if it were something else, but astronomy is different.

Without knowing how to use the Astronomy, such an offer could not be accepted.

“No.”

November coincides with Namgung-yeon’s birth date.

If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have nailed it as November.

When he refused, General Staff Bellsonia gave up cleanly.

Wouldn’t it be known if the Grand Master had left room?

Looking at his resolute expression, it seemed that the transfer of the Astronomical Gate would only be possible after November.

Wouldn’t it be unknown if he died at the hands of the Angelos royal family?

Before that, it seemed like nothing.

The meeting is over.

After that day, the morning and evening meetings were not held again.

***

Heaven.

Saint Yucheon (生有天), the realm of the Angelos royal family.

barley palace.

King Angelos Ambrosius of Saint Yucheon, who was sitting on the throne, struck down the handle of the throne with his fist.

Kwajik-.

The jewel-adorned handle crumbled into powder.

“What? Did the Grand Master of Jongmoon cut off the arm of the Crown Prince and threatened him to commit a crime?”

The centurion of the Elyos army, who had come running first to deliver the news, shrugged his shoulders and replied.

“It is. The warden, the Crown Prince, told me to go first and tell the king, and he came running.”

“Why did the Grand Master do such a thing? Has the crown prince done anything wrong to him?”

“I swear, the crown prince did nothing wrong.”

“Why did you cut off your arm and ask for a sin when you didn’t do anything wrong!”

“The Crown Prince asked the Grand Master, ‘As the demon is the enemy of the Angelos royal family, please give me the body of the demon.’ However, the Grand Master refused, saying that he would bury the demon’s corpse, and the Crown Prince greatly rebuked him, saying that it was an act of contempt for the Angelos royal family… and instead, his arm was cut off.”

“Is there such a crazy person?”

Angelos Ambrosios jumped to his feet.

Then the Elyos lined up at his feet shouted in unison.

“majesty! The Grand Master scorned the Angelos royal family, so he deserves to die!”

“We must not leave the Grand Master alive!”

“I know I have to establish the authority of the Angelos royal family that has fallen to the ground!”

Angelos Esteric, known as the ‘Sage of Saint Yoochun’, took a step forward.

The noisy barley palace soon became quiet.

“majesty. Jongmoon Daejongsa is a rare master who slays demons single-handedly. His nine sword spirits are unmatched by the best visions of the sect. However, if it is the Angelos royal family’s sacred spirit passed down from the ancestors, it will be able to defeat him.”

Angelos Ambrosios, who calmed his blood at his words, asked again.

“Is ‘Saengyucheon’s sage’ saying that the great master should also be killed?”

“The crown prince of the Angelos royal family was humiliated in front of the heavenly commanders. When the War of the Saviors is over, what happened to the crown prince will be widely known throughout the heavens. Before that, we must let them know what the punishment will be for scorning the Angelos royal family.”

King Angelos Ambrosios looked at the ‘Sage of Saint Yucheon’ with satisfied eyes.

It was admirable that he, who usually opposes the reckless use of Shingi, came out like that.

“The Angelos royal family’s sacred flag is the pillar that supports the royal family. There’s even a saying that goes, ‘Without the divine spirit, there is no royal family’. Who do you want me to entrust the Shinki to?”

To the king’s question, Angelos Esteric, the sage of Saint Yucheon, answered without hesitation.

“I think Apiculata is the right person.”

For a moment, King Ambrosios looked at the ‘Sage of Saint Yucheon’ with a startled face.

Apiculata is a notorious Elyos in Saint Yucheon.

He once stood shoulder to shoulder with Gwangmyeong Jincheon, but is now called Peranos (touch of blood).

The reason he couldn’t rise as high as Gwangmyeongjincheon was purely because of his obsession with killing.

“You mean that Apiculata called Peranos?”

“That’s right. It is difficult to overcome the master swordsman’s sword spirit unless it is Feranos who is mad for slaughter.”

Angelos Esteric believed that Apiculata was the right person.

Elyos have excellent physical abilities, but are naturally kind.

Of course, it was diluted a lot by the environment while growing up, but benevolence was innate.

However, like Apiculata, there are Elyos who have broken that nature from birth.

What if he, who specializes in killing living things, is given the royal family’s god?

Not even a great master, but even a true master would not survive.

King Ambrosios said with a puzzled face.

“Peranos is still an Elyos that is difficult to control. Are you going to give him a chance? How are you going to handle the aftermath?”

“Isn’t there a ‘mortal covenant’ passed down through the royal family? Killing and worshiping are inseparable. He will do anything to get his hands on the Shinki.”

King Ambrosios, thinking deeply, nodded.

The ‘mortal covenant’ is a curse spell that binds the souls of others.

If you disobey the caster’s order, you will die, so there was no harm to yourself.

No, if Peranos agrees to the ‘Covenant of Mortal Destiny’, it is a great benefit because it is like having a treasured sword (Peranos).

“If Peranos wants to make a ‘mortal covenant’, I will entrust him with this mission.”
