Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 250
Episode 250 Episode
77. Villain (7)
Five hundred sailing ships were approaching the eastern port of the Holy Land.
It was a fleet of a size that should never appear suddenly. Even the owner of that fleet was not even an ally of the Holy Kingdom.
It was a beastman fleet led by the great warrior of the White Wolves, Berakt Sydriker.
Since five hundred sailboats entered the territorial waters without even asking for permission, the Seongguk had no choice but to accept it as a declaration of war.
But to my surprise, all five hundred sailboats had black ribbons on their highest masts as a sign of respect.
In addition, all the guns were removed without exception, and at the bow of each ship stood one White Wolves waving a huge black flag.
They came not for war, but for condolences.
It was a condolence delegation on a scale unprecedented in history.
“Are they crazy? Sending 500 ships as condolences, obviously knowing that the kingdom is in disarray?”
Murakan shook his head.
“Because of Dino, Kingelo’s name is on the surface, so he’s trying to show off. They’re not a third-rate terrorist organization. I don’t know whose head it came from, but it’s smart.”
“Smart?”
“Kingelo said he would help me. However, if the world recognizes Kingelo as a poor organization, it is difficult to have public confidence in whatever it provides to the Holy Land.”
“Hmm, that’s it too.”
“We are such a great group that we can send 500 sailboats just for condolences. It’s the intention to let people know that.”
“It must be a very rich year for human reporters.”
It was surprising that Kingelo, who had been hiding his power until now, came out like this.
‘Have you decided that there is no need to hide your power anymore? Or did I just naturally hide it because I didn’t have a chance until now?’
Either way, it was an upsetting situation for Zipple.
Carl gave up his image to hide the fact that he was captured by a third-rate terrorist group, but Kingelo showed his power in earnest.
Seongguk allowed only one ship out of five hundred to dock. It was because it was impossible to accommodate all five hundred feet, and even for condolences, this was too much.
From the anchored ship, Berakt, five of his assistants, and about twenty people who were bound were disembarked.
Berakt’s gigantic body was overwhelmingly eye-catching. The white lang tribes who assisted them were also warriors with a reputation in the world of beastmen, but they were nothing compared to Berakt’s energy.
They immediately entered the capital using the movement gateway and found the plaza where Rani was.
With every stride Berakt took, the crowd gathered nearby flinched.
Like beasts who have met their natural enemies, most of them dare not even look straight at Berakt.
Berakt was also disrespectful, but the horrified crowd did not boo. It was a completely different atmosphere from when White Night brought Ko-Jek.
Soon after, Berakt stood in front of Lani, and the Golden Shield Paladins waited for him to speak with extreme tension.
‘Little.’
Jin and Murakan were also watching the scene.
‘uh.’
‘That’s pretty strong. Even your eldest sister couldn’t be sure.’
Murakan evaluated Berakt that way.
“I am Berakt Sidricker, the commander-in-chief of Kingelo’s Revolutionary Army and the Great Warrior of the White Wolves. I came to mourn the death of Saint King Miklan.”
“…thank you, Berakt Sydricker.”
“Sir Rani, you don’t know, but I was in debt to the King about 30 years ago. I was seriously injured during the battle, but Miklan, who happened to be training on our land, treated me.”
“I remember my father telling me that he went through penance in the land of prisoners around that time. That’s what happened.”
“He was one of the nicest people I’ve ever known. Sending you my deepest condolences.”
People couldn’t help but be shocked. It is surprising that Daejeon, one of the famous White Rang tribe, who regards humans as bugs, has visited, but it is unimaginable that he uses such gentlemanly words and actions.
Rani’s gaze reached the captive humans behind Berakt. They were wearing dirty, tattered zipline robes.
“And the humans tied behind are the prisoners of the Ziple we were holding. In the days when we were allies with Ziffle, these humans conducted biological experiments on our land without permission under the command of the Ziffle family.”
“yes?”
“The details will be confessed by these. Please pray that your country will come out of sorrow as soon as possible.”
The crowd was agitated.
And once again, Jin became curious about who had concocted this scheme within Kingelo.
‘The attitude of treating Rani as the head of the Holy Kingdom following the display of prestige. Besides, they say that the biological experiment was Kelliac’s order, and they even drive a wedge into it.’
In any case, the process of completely framing Ziffle was bound to be a mud fight.
In that sense, Berakt’s remarks were a very good attack on Ziple.
‘Actually, considering that the living experiment was a joint venture between Kingelo and Ziple, it’s an unspeakably shameless statement.’
The first priority was to make Ziffle withdraw from the Holy Kingdom.
Kingelo’s crime is that it is not too late to investigate after the Holy Kingdom is on the right track. For now, Kingelo’s name is also floating on the surface of the water.
While Lani was choosing an answer, Berakt opened her mouth again.
“If I stay for a long time, everyone will feel uncomfortable, so I’ll leave right away. It is true that we were also allies with Zipple, so we will take responsibility for this later.”
* * *
It turned out that all the prisoners Berakt brought were wizards belonging to Ziple’s academy.
They uncovered all the experiments that Ziple had conducted on the subjects of the Holy Kingdom.
The confession almost coincided with the record left by Matual Scylla, and included the contents of an experiment conducted by Ziple alone, not a joint venture.
by their confessions.
The fact that there is an additional testing facility in the Holy Land has been exposed to the whole world. In the northern part of the capital city and several cities, Ziffle had created a secret laboratory.
That was the most decisive. Rani and her subjects were shocked by the fact that there was a laboratory for Jiple in the Holy Land.
It was the same with Jin.
“Even if Carl Zipple revealed that he was a tail, I thought the best result would be to cut off his image and make him back down moderately. This will change the story. I would have thought there was a laboratory in the Holy Land.”
Being a good and righteous family of wizards is now a thing of the past in the Holy Land.
Still, Zipline has yet to issue any further statements.
“Kingelo provided proper support. no kid Do you think you made good use of them?”
“That’s right. I have no intention of leaving them alone. If the atmosphere continues like this, Kingelo has nothing to lose. They only get a good image as a well-to-do group that can kidnap the lord of Zipline’s mage and take the wizards of Ziple as prisoners.”
“Even though the Dark Magic Society was destroyed and Liol Ziple’s magic book was lost.”
“That’s not enough. I have to let you know that Kingelo is no different from Zipple. At this rate, it has been used enough to be used in the Holy Land, so it is time to throw it away.”
“What are you going to do?”
Just as Jin was about to answer, someone hurriedly knocked on the door where the two were staying.
“Gongja Jin!”
It was Casimir’s urgent voice.
“Sir Casimir? What’s wrong?”
“Karl Ziffle has been murdered…!”
Jin and Murakan reflexively stood up.
“I beg your pardon? Wasn’t the camp guarded by Golden Shield loyalists?”
“An assassin broke through the boundaries of the Golden Shield. It must have been from Zipple.”
“under.”
Carl Zipple was a man who shouldn’t have died now.
He must be alive to prove that Kelliac used his son as an innocent tail.
In addition, if Carl died, the justification for the Seongguk to press Ziffle had to be reduced.
It was because Seongguk killed the human sent by Ziple as ‘the main culprit of the biological experiment’.
As for Zipline, since Carl died, he could say that he had ‘paid for his crime’.
Of course, it wasn’t Seongguk who killed Carl, it was Ziple’s assassin, but the truth didn’t matter.
Zipple’s pens can spread fabricated articles saying that Seongguk demands an excessive apology even though Carl is dead as of today.
If you don’t want to be attacked by tail cutting, you should never cut your tail.
“Already, the press of Zipple is moving. They say that Zipple has paid enough for his crimes.”
“Humans are a stupid species, but would you believe that? At first glance, it was Zipple who killed Carl.”
“Of course no one believes in the Holy Land. However, outsiders will think that Seongguk killed Carl after excessive torture to get him to confess. There will be a story that Seongguk covered Carl’s death as an assassination to hide the fact. Because…”
Casimir sighed and went on.
“They left the name Barmal at the scene of the murder.”
Jin and Murakan’s eyes widened.
I will wash away the resentment of the subjects of the Holy Land with your blood – Bamal.
After killing Carl, the assassin carved this sentence with his sword on the wall at the entrance to the camp.
“Reporters have already identified the sentence engraved on the wall. It wasn’t the solitary cell where the knife was deliberately kept, it was engraved at the entrance. for all to see.”
“I see what you mean. image prestige. They lost both of them thanks to me, so it must mean asking me to identify them.”
“It seems so to me too, Confucius.”
The assassin who killed Carl identified himself as ‘Bamal’.
As Murakan said, no one would believe it.
However, if the real Bamal did not officially reveal that he was not the culprit, Seongguk could no longer hold Jiple accountable.
Anyway, it was because it was true that Carl was dead.
Conversely, if Jin, who is a real badass, appears in public and proves that he is not the criminal, from then on, Zipple’s image will plummet. Not only in the Holy Land, but all over the world.
The symbol of Runcandel, ‘evil and depravity’, could be the share of Zipple.
“What are you going to do?”
“I struggle to become a villain this far, but I have to help. I have to make it official that I never did anything like that.”
“The will of Confucius is important, but… in my opinion, revealing his identity is too risky. As Confucius said, since you have lost your image and prestige, find out who Bamal is. Doesn’t that mean you’re going to clearly show what happens to those who oppose Zipple?”
Jin smiled wryly.
“On the contrary, if the person who resisted Ziple lives well without any problems. That would be a huge blow to them. rather it went well. I need to feed Kingelo some candy while revealing his identity.”
