Sword Pilgrim - Chapter 170

Episode 170

A few months later.

“Shit. damn! Fuck!”

“You are shallow.”

“Damn it! plague! Yeom!”

“Shut up.”

“…”

“It’s much better because I don’t hear the sound of picking pigs.”

“That’s the same.”

All right. All right.

A black-haired man sitting in a carriage and looking at the scenery outside.

Callius made Junice shut up, who was constantly swearing.

Two saints by his side. And he was riding in the carriage with him.

The reason was as follows.

First, Ailee was taken hostage.

The second, Junis and the Beasts were in his hands.

Therefore, Callius had no choice but to head for Carpe.

‘The Beasts need a new home.’

This is because the hostage saintess must be in Carpe in order to gain proper political advantage with the empire.

And it was necessary to find a new place for the beastmen who served Junis and the shield to settle down.

Because Able Fix could no longer live because the Empire’s magic power had already stretched out.

Now we are heading to the northern part of Carpe by carriage. It was Jaybarsh.

In the first place, to safely head to Carpe from Abble Peaks, it was necessary to take a detour to the north, and in that case, the nearest place would be the northern part of Carpe.

Zervan’s territory among the four nobles.

Because he was also Jaybarsh.

‘The North is also in my hands.’

The northern part of Carpe is the only place where the land mass is wide enough to gather more than a thousand beastmen without restrictions.

Besides, the Beasts are strong against the cold, so it was easy to adapt.

The weather in the north itself is very cold and bitter, so even though the land is large, there are not many territories.

The last war reduced even more, so the new beastmen were the firepower to melt the snow in the north a little.

and in the north.

‘I need to check if Balterus’ tears are growing well.’

A sacred place at the bottom of the sinking forest.

It was necessary to check the tears of Balterus that were growing in the sacred ground of Fatalite, and it was also because he wanted to further strengthen his divine power by using the statues of the saints brought from Lactus’ garden.

In Lactus’ garden, the saints of the empire became holy stones themselves, making the garden a holy place.

So, Callius put them all into subspace, which would probably benefit Balterus’ tears.

‘Or it can be used elsewhere.’

And even if it wasn’t for that reason, I had to go through the North once.

In the meantime, I’ve been letting things go like this, but anyway, because Colius was the heir to the savvy north, and he was also the one who would be the owner.

‘I hope Bernard is well.’

current head of state.

It’s Elverton, you’ll be fine.

I don’t know if Emily is still in Caladi or has returned to the North.

“I heard that the North is the count’s hometown. It’s been quite a while, isn’t it?”

“…Yes.”

It seems like it’s been a while, but it’s already been about three years.

It’s been three years since I left the North.

It has been six years since I set foot in this world.

It’s been quite a while since I left for the pilgrimage, and the new realization and sword I got from Able Peaks.

And I spent time sorting out the rewards, and it took quite a while to travel to the north, so it was already like that.

It was a new feeling.

‘The first three years were really difficult.’

Quests did not appear at all and only became stronger through Sieun.

I had no choice but to find the hidden pieces little by little to build up my strength and learn how to live in this desolate world one by one. Recalling the past, I remembered Bernard’s smirk.

“That old man. I don’t know if he’ll be alive.”

“You look happy.”

“is it?”

“yes. Your expression looks comfortable.”

“It must be your delusion.”

They’ve been together for a few months, and they wear pretty comfortable clothes and expressions for the hostage theme.

Junice was still swearing.

“You really don’t remember.”

“yes. I don’t remember anything except that my name is Ailee.”

Colliers said no more.

He didn’t bother to say that there was a child between her and him before he lost his memory.

his relationship with her.

current situation in the country.

When looking at complex correlations.

It was because it seemed that talking about such a situation would make it even more uncomfortable.

‘Saint of the enemy country. That’s comfortable.’

Wouldn’t it just be confusing to tell Emily that she had a mother now?

I don’t really have any memories of her as a mother.

“I don’t know….”

I thought I should think a little more carefully.

“What are you talking about?”

“no.”

Waving his hands in annoyance, Callius crossed his legs.

Even that appearance was so elegant that Ailee’s lips went up involuntarily.

Then, it is Junice who looks at the scene with rotten dynamic eyes as if it is ridiculous.

“Callius.”

“What.”

“The attitude towards hostages is not good. First of all, shouldn’t you tie your hands and feet and put a muzzle so that you can’t urinate and defecate freely? It is also a crime against the continent to care too much about human rights for the people of the Empire.”

“You talk nonsense very sincerely.”

“Look at you. Who would see you and think you’re a hostage? Escorting them in a fluffy wagon without any limb restraints. You are not of any royal bloodline!”

It’s a start again.

If left alone, the two of them would argue all day long, which is quite a headache. Of course, at first, as Junice said, he restrained the saintess.

But Junis, who saw that, bothered Ailee by beside her or beat her up, so I just let her go.

In the first place, Ailee also swore to God and declared that she would not run away unjustly, so the restraint was meaningless.

“I didn’t invite you two to talk like that.”

Originally, the two were separated.

But now it’s not long to go to the north.

Callius decided it was time to get some answers from them.

“What is the beginning day?”

“Is that it again? Colliers. Sometimes there are secrets that you don’t want to know. Other people may not know, but you can’t.”

“The reason is?”

“Because you are a person who has achieved a lot. And even if you know, it won’t make much of a difference. It has no meaning. Besides, it’s not something we really want to talk about either.”

I looked at Ailee right away.

He shakes his head as if he had a similar feeling.

“Unfortunately, I feel the same way as Junice. It is comfortable to think that you have received a revelation.”

“timing?”

“yes. He looked at me and told me to be a challenger.”

challenger.

It was also something I had heard before.

Beginning Day and Challenger.

These are the words that Colliers has carved out quite carefully.

“Who are you challenging?”

In response, Ailee pointed at the sky with a seomseomoksu.

And then.

pointed to the ground.

sky and earth.

challenge it

Callius’ brow deepened.

when he’s thinking

Junice snorted and asked back.

“What revelation is there? How can we get a revelation from that bastard?”

Junice seemed to have a different idea.

“We are just expendable. Consumables that will make this world more plausible.”

Soon after, he smiled meanly and spoke again.

“okay. We are beings who stepped into this world to cry and eat mustard after being threatened by God.”

“Threat?”

“okay. Threat! I was a noble lady who was pathetically possessed by evil. evil told me If you want to be free, challenge yourself. That’s why I came down to this land.”

Soon, Junice spread her arms and spoke reverently.

“Should I call myself an angel?”

However, the eyes of Callius who looked at her were cold.

Junice’s face wrinkled at the cold gaze, as if looking at filth worse than a bug. I felt bad for some reason.

“I am similar. If you want to live a new life… I told you to challenge yourself.”

challenge.

Callie’s eyes suddenly deepened.

‘They are similar to me.’

They expressed it in a roundabout way, but they are originally not people of this world.

Perhaps also that Ailee has no memories of the past.

It must be because he was possessed by a new body starting from the beginning of the day. If you think like that, all hungry spirits agree.

‘Even though I haven’t met that person.’

You won’t be different either.

“Is there no other challenger besides you?”

“well. I also…”

“I don’t know. take no interest.”

don’t know that far

Callius nodded and asked one last question.

“Why did you fight when you knew you were going to die?”

It refers to the battle against the undying Corruption.

Colliers was watching them all.

Through the eyes of the gray knights.

Junice is naturally like that.

Although her personality is of a different kind, she does not shirk her duties as a saint.

A saint is a saint.

Strive for God for the world.

Like most saints do.

however.

‘The current Junice is a different person.’

It’s not that he gave the fairy’s body and made him obey it.

It means that the almaeng-I is different.

Just like Colliers himself.

“That’s it… that’s a duty.”

An annoyed look.

Resurrected as a fairy with a new body, Junice became a complete fairy, but her unique bully-like facial expression and gestures did not change, creating a sense of disparity.

However, it was easy to see through.

“I got it roughly.”

With a few questions, I was able to predict their history.

For now, the saints called challengers will be able to use a system similar to theirs. In addition, it must be partly dominated by a sense of duty toward the saintess and her personality.

‘Like I did.’

However, the character and duties of a mediocre man and a saint are incomparable.

The size of the suppression itself will be different.

That’s why he was able to quickly develop that kind of power, but he must still be dominated.

Judging from that, considering the speed and influence of their growth, it was clear that they were receiving help from the system.

And maybe.

‘There is a high probability that he knows that this is the original game world.’

If you think so, it is easy to solve.

Players are not alone in this world.

“It doesn’t mean much.”

However, Colliers soon lost interest.

Whether they are players or challengers.

I wouldn’t have known it in the past, but now it’s not very interesting.

What I had to do anyway wasn’t much different.

he survived

will live in the future

I plan to live in this world with them while protecting the things around me.

When I became Colius in this world.

he promised

that he was born anew.

He said he was given a new life.

I made a promise and survived like tenacity.

So it’s the same thing to do.

‘To live.’

And finding your own sword.

After that…

“I’ll have to see the end.”

The end of an unfinished story.

He wanted to see it with his own two eyes.

The end of the story you made up.

After a while.

The carriage stopped.

Colius and the saints got off the carriage and took in the northern scenery.

All you can see is a vast field of snow.

and.

“…”

The bandits surrounded the wagon.

“Nothing has changed in the North.”

Laughing as if it was absurd.

Callius drew his sword.
