Episode 225
âI am afraid of him.â
The Battle of Carpe.
Aristocrats with various titles were gathering and admonishing in front of the queen.
At its center is the Marquis of Carpe.
There was Bathory deâ Medicidi.
The Marquis Bathory, who grew a noble beard, gave advice while adjusting his narrow glasses.
âGo ahead.â
âIt is said that Ilshinâs might is not enough even when facing a dragon, and even when facing an army of 30,000, not a single wound remains. Do you know why the corruption and dragons appeared in the empire?â
He is Carpeâs son.
A man well-known as a loser in the north and a hero who saved his country.
I was talking about Colliers von Zervan.
âWhen I put together the stories of the spies I planted, they say he was at the center of it.â
The mastermind behind the ruin of the empire.
It was a man who was also called the Gray Demon King in the Gray Land.
It is because of Colius leading the dragon and corruption to war against the Empire. Such a story was circulating in Carpe.
âA few months ago, the count already had a precedent of seizing the capital by force. And this time, they even slaughtered 30,000 airmen moving north.â
Thatâs all.
It is said that he even killed two masters and returned.
âCan you believe this? However, considering the power he has shown so far, it is undeniable.â
âYour Majesty the King. What will His Highness do if, under some circumstances, things go wrong with him?â
âThatâsâŚâ
The man who bought Godâs wrath.
Besides, its power is infinitely beyond humans, so I dare to ask.
Heâs devoted to Carpe right now, but what if he changes his mind?
What if you have a different mindset?
Can we really stop him?
probably wonât stop
âThe sword in hand is wielded, not by the sword.â
At the noblesâ advice, the queen was at a loss for words. Even when she thought about it, his stature and power had grown too strong.
To the extent that Carpe couldnât bear it.
âI donât even have the qualifications to be a foolish king who is jealous of the power of his subjects.â
Because he was a powerless king all his life.
âThe Medicidi Marquis. I have listened to your earnest advice. However, you canât stay away from a loyal servant. The achievement he made deserves to be praised. Jagoro The king is the role of ministering to his servants, praising them for their hard work and giving them prizes. I will do my duty properly.â
âBut, Your HighnessâŚâ
The moment the Marquis of Medicidi tried to say something more. The duke stepped out behind him.
âThen do this.â
A man older than the Marquis and whose hair has turned white.
Judgment Gerald.
It was Duke Gerald de Gestaf.
âHow old is Your Highness this year?â
âI have turned twenty-one.â
âThen why donât you give the count a proper favor?â
âto?â
last name? Claraâs face slowly turned red like a tomato.
âSeo Seong-eun!â
âYour Highness Count is a strong knight. It is also the job of the country to preserve his seed and ensure succession. There would be no greater blessing than receiving his seed and inheriting the lineage of a strong royal family.â
âYou mean arranged marriages.â
âWouldnât that make the old peopleâs worries go away?â
Big big.
Clara cleared her throat, drank the tea Viktor brought, and cleared her throat.
âYou donât know about Ruidrenâs work, do you? Preserving the lineage is also the duty of the royal family and nobility.â
âThatâs rightâŚâ
The entire South was pushed back by the Air Force.
Being pushed to Valentine Castle, which can be seen as the center of the south, means that Luidrenâs territory has also been completely turned upside down.
Currently, the only known bloodline of Luidren is Lauren von Luidren.
When the situation is like this, the proper thing for the king to do is to give fortune to the heir.
The same goes for Gervan.
âIn the first place, he never had a family. Itâs my first marriage.â
Although he has a daughter, it is common for him to be an illegitimate child of a nobleman, so considering his achievements, it is not a fault.
The problem is that Zervan has no deficit.
In addition, the anxiety of the aristocrats reached its peak due to this incident, and it bothered them that the king of a country was not married and had no children.
They were full of thoughts of somehow finding a mate for the queen and marrying them.
âtoday. I donât think thereâs a better husband than that. Please make a wise decision.â
âA wise decisionâŚâ
Of course, there were also opposing forces.
âI am against it. His power is too strong. If he marries Your Highness and becomes his sire, he will not only possess the strength of oneself, but also mighty power.â
âyouâre right. If he even rebels, who will stop it?â
âIf he puts his mind to it, I think it might be possible even now.â
âWhat kind of nonsense!â
âIsnât that what you said?â
âHa but!â
âAll right. Please stop it.â
The troubled queen stood up and said.
âCall the saintess of the empire.â

Several days have passed since Luteon died.
Concerned that God might play a trick on him, he turned him into a sword.
However, I didnât bother writing it.
Because it was right that Ruidren was using the sword, not himself.
Loren promised to use Luteon for the rest of his life and make him pay for his sins with a sword.
In addition, he said that he would keep him by his side for the rest of his life and never forget the work of the day and devote himself endlessly, so he had no choice but to allow it.
The spear he used was put in my scabbard.
A spear made of Ruen is a humiliation to them, so he said that he would put it in a sheath and make it my sword, and Lauren readily agreed.
If you release the corpse of the spear, its soul will go to Lactus, the god of the spear.
For those who have dedicated their lives to the god of spears, the act of denying them their entire life is no different from humiliation and disgrace.
âFather would consider it an honor if I could be with the Count.â
What will happen to his soul when he goes to my scabbard? I donât know.
I wonder if the soul itself is decomposed and becomes my own power.
But thatâs a little sad.
I donât know if itâs my enemy.
If itâs the power I use to annihilate those who raised the sword with me.
taste was bitter.
Canât I also embrace those who fight for me.
âTo warmly embrace those who walk a long journey and rest in peace.â
I wanted to.
my scabbard.
I hoped that it would be so, and I hoped a little.
âAre you not crying anymore?â
âBecause I spilled a lot. Now I have to build it up again rather than shed it.â
Lauren was a strong kid.
Genos shook his head as if he was admirable and replied.
âWith the help of me and Colliers, we will be able to rebuild again in no time. Alphonse will help too, so donât worry too much. I have to live by helping the four nobles. is not it?â
Nodding her head, Lauren declined.
âI have already had enough help. There is no way I can repay you for more than this.â
âYou donât know what the world is doing.â
âYes Lauren. You never know when youâll grow up and have a job helping Colius or my child. We are investing.â
Lauren is 14 years old.
But you never know what kind of articles it will become in a few years.
I donât know what the world will be like.
So fun and exciting
I also made this place.
I donât know what will happen in the future.
âAmong the nobles of Carpe, we have to help each other and become pillars. Only then will the country stand right.â
âHow about the West?â
âThey say the Imperial Army has withdrawn. This is top-secret information, but corruption and dragons have appeared. And that suddenly in the center of the empire. You have been punished.â
âGood for you. Thanks to that, Carpe will be able to breathe a little more.â
It seems that the exact information has not been delivered yet.
surely. I came on a dragon, so I came quickly. Originally, the distance between the Empire and Carpe took several months.
Even if you fly a telegram, it will take some time until it is judged accurate.
âThe most important thing in war is information delivery, but thatâs definitely not enough.â
Artifacts of that kind are quite expensive, and most of them are not for sale.
Because it is an artifact that must be used on a national basis, it cannot be taken out carelessly.
Even in the Church of Carpe, there is a holy place for pilgrims to check the location called Acusium, but it is not possible to transmit information.
âCallius. What now?â
âWhat do you mean?â
âI canât stay here forever, can I? Officially, you havenât been given a kingâs mandate.â
âIt doesnât.â
The Imperial Army in the west has withdrawn, but the Air Force will not. I still donât know what happened to the gongnyeo.
In the south, the air force that lost its commander is retreating, but we cannot be vigilant.
âWe have to defend against their attack again and defend the South.â
Although I slaughtered 30,000 troops as I came, I canât kill all the air force that way. It was possible because they were resting in the castle.
If you decide to divide the military and use tactics, it will take a long time to catch the air force.
And defending the South is not my job.
Although young, the master of the south is Luidren.
This is what Lauren here has to do.
âI can help, but I canât do it for you.â
Even though he is young, he will now become the master of the South.
âGo back.â
âhmm.â
âGenos. Arenât you going?â
âI must have been hurt. Iâm going to rest slowly in the south for a while.â
The moment he nodded and tried to summon the ironclad dragon.
âCallius. Youâre not going to ride an ironclad dragon to the royal capital, are you?â
ââŚIâm surprised.â
âThere will be an uproar.â
I guess so.
âYou are the hero who destroyed the southern 30,000 air force. deserves to be praised If not you, who else will be praised by the people in this country? Iâll attach a horse and an escort to you, so you can properly enter the castle gate. We need to raise public sentiment as well as show it. Because that is the duty of our nobles.â
ââŚYou seem to be saying the right thing after a long time.â
âI donât want to live seriously either.â
The two broke up with a smile and didnât say goodbye.
Genos and Lauren.
While keeping my eyes on the two of them, I headed for the capital. Because I had to sound the news of victory in the hearts of the impoverished people.

Click.
The Queenâs Garden in the Royal Castle.
Hana, who is drinking tea there, is a woman with thickly braided gray hair and a sophisticated attitude, giving off a mysterious atmosphere.
Clara, Queen of Carpe.
She is currently a saint of the Empire.
I was enjoying refreshments with Ailee.
From the outside, it was nice to see the two of them drinking tea.
Even the flowers in the flower garden were about to be stunned by their beauty.
However, in reality, the conversation between the two was not so friendly.
âI heard. Your appearance has changed a lot now, but you were born in a southern aristocrat. He said it was Berryaren.â
The Queenâs information power is wider and deeper than expected. freeweÉnøvel.com
She has always been good at listening and filtering things out.
It was a story that I had no choice but to know even if I wanted to know that the saintess of the empire was originally a noblewoman of Carpe.
âI wonât ask what happened. I wouldnât have just climbed to where I am now. It must be the position that Gwa-in could not experience and rose to the position.â
âItâs an overstatement.â
âI donât have much time, so forgive the rudeness of asking simply.â
he is coming
The story needs to end quickly.
The nobles fear Colliers.
Human beings keep away from what they fear, and even threaten them in the end.
It is a self-preservation instinct that all animals have.
So I didnât know what they would do if they dragged on for a long time.
Clara had to make a decision.
âWhat kind of relationship does the saintess have with the daughter of Count Zervan?â
ââŚ.â
âThere are many, many rumors going around in the world. But among dogs, the truth is also cleverly hidden. A king of a country is also a person who finds and covers such hidden things.â
ââŚI am.â
Looking down at the saintess who was speechless, Clara straightened her back.
He said with the appearance of a queen.
âThere will be marriage talks between me and the count.â
ââŚâ
Startled.
âHe is a strong man.â
âBut it is just as dangerous. It seems that the aristocratsâ anxiety has increased.â
She is also a saint of the empire.
I know very well about the physiology of the country.
âyes. So I must bear it.â
ââŚCongratulations.â
âYou wonât have much time with your daughter⌠so make sure you spend enough time.â
âyes?â
Ailee, who couldnât come to her senses at the queenâs rambling speech, looked straight at Clara.
âYou swore to God that you would cooperate as much as possible during your captivity. So, I can give you one name.â
âyes.â
âSir Ailee, the saint of the Empire. As the Queen of Carpe, I will give you a royal order.â
chuck.
The saintess stood up from her chair and bowed her head, accepting the queenâs command.
âPlease bring Sir Emily von Zervan. She will be indispensable for the grand state wedding that is about to take place.â
Ailee seemed to know why the queen had told her about the marriage.
If the national marriage takes place, he will probably return to the empire.
Perhaps it was the order to bring Emily.
âThe consideration of the queen who became the same woman.â
I wonât have time to spend with my daughter anymore.
It means to pass the time.
And probably.
âYouâre putting me to the test.â
The queen looked at the back of the saintess as she walked out with swaying pupils for a long time before turning her head.
âWeâll see if youâll take Lord Carliers or Emily or the Empire.â
whatever it was
As Queen Dory and her would-be companion, she had to know.
What is in the heart of the saintess?
if it harms him
Itâs okay to get rid of it at all costs.
