Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1211



Only Noblemtl

Episode 1211. This is also a joke, right? Is that so?

To the public, adventurers were similar to mercenaries.

It was recognized that way because most adventurers were mercenaries.

The history of adventurers is the same as the history of Abyss development.

Originally, the Abyss was recognized as a den of demons and demons, so no one went near it.

Then, a group of mercenaries discovered an item from the Age of Magic in the Abyss, and when it was traded at a high price, everyone flocked to the Abyss.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the beginning there were only mercenaries.

If items from the Demonic Era had continued to be unearthed, this might still be the case.

However, the items from the Magic Age, which are said to be treasures, were rarely seen.

There was almost a rumor going around that there was a chance of finding a gold nugget by the river.

Eventually, the mercenary group withdrew.

However, mercenaries looking to make a quick fortune still headed to the Abyss as if they were making a pilgrimage to a holy place.

After the mercenaries, the southern kingdoms turned their eyes to the Abyss.

The southern kingdoms were the first to create an unprecedented profession called ‘adventurers’.

On the surface, it was said to protect the general public, but in reality, it was to control the Abyss.

That is why registration certificates are issued by the security forces rather than private guilds.

The mercenary guilds lost control of the Abyss to the kingdom, but did not think it was a big deal.

This is because to those simple ignorant people, the Abyss was nothing more than a bright apricot.

Unlike mercenaries, the great nobles of the Southern Kingdom focused on the resources of the Abyss rather than treasure.

They developed high-density mana stone mines with adventurers and collected rare medicinal herbs.

Up until this point, the empire had only kept pace with the policies of the southern kingdoms.

It is natural that it is difficult for the empire to reach the Abyss, which must pass through the southern great forest.

Meanwhile, treasures from the Age of Magic began to be discovered here and there, as if belatedly showing off their presence.

Syncrair Jeter, who was very curious, asked his mother.

“Mom, what is an adventurer?”

“Someone who enjoys adventure?”

“Then am I an adventurer too?”

“Why you?”

“I also enjoy adventure.”

“That’s true, but if you want to become a real adventurer, you have to go to the security corps and register.”

“why? “Can’t I just register?”

“There is the most dangerous place in the world called the Abyss, and to enter there, you must obtain an adventurer registration certificate from the security forces. It was so dangerous that only adventurers could enter. “There are demons and monsters living there.”

Syncrair Jeter’s expression darkened when he heard that demons and demons live together.

“What if I don’t go to the Abyss?”

“Well, you could say I enjoy adventures, but I’m not a real adventurer. “People who enter the Abyss are called adventurers.”

“I see.”

Syncrair Jeter, who was nodding his head, let out a long sigh.

“ha! I also like adventure… … .”

“Are you worried because you’re afraid of the Abyss?”

“yes.”

“Then how about studying mana stones like your father? “You work in a safe laboratory.”

“That’s a bit…” … I hate it because it’s frustrating. It’s not even fun. “I want to be an adventurer.”

“There are not only adventurers in the world. There are knights, wizards, tailors… … .”

“But adventures are the most fun.”

When his daughter said she wanted to become an adventurer, Shine Cowles raised his voice without realizing it.

“It may be fun, but it’s poor. “If you’re going to live alone your whole life, you can be an adventurer, but if you’re going to get married, it’s better to do something else.”

“Are you poor?”

“You have to find treasure in the Abyss to make money, but if treasure is easily found, would you call it treasure? “If there are a hundred adventurers, a hundred are poor.”

Andrea Jeter, who was listening in the back seat, said ‘Hum! Hum!’ He cleared his throat.

Only then did Shine Cowles quickly add something nice.

“Of course, you might get really, really lucky and find a treasure and become rich.”

“I will find a treasure and become rich.”

As her daughter was dreaming in vain, Shine Coleslaw held her arm tightly and shook her head.

“No?”

“Yeah, no. “Don’t even dream.”

Just then, the carriage ‘clunked!’ It shook violently once.

I thought I was going to stop it once, but contrary to people’s expectations, that wasn’t the end.

The wheels of the carriage kept rattling as if they were caught on something.

And then finally, ‘Bang!’ The carriage tilted to one side with a sound.

As the carriage body scraped against the ground, the driver quickly pulled the reins.

The leading horses stopped, raising their front feet high and screaming.

When the carriage in front stopped, the two carriages that followed naturally also stopped.

The guards who came to see what was going on saw the wheels of the carriage and returned to their original positions.

They decided that it was not their job.

The coachmen gathered together, muttered, and made the passengers get off, saying they needed to change the wheels.

Andrea Jeter and her family were forced outside and shivered in the bitter cold of midwinter.

Elio, who was worse off, took out a piece of fire stone the size of a little fingernail from Mahadam (space warehouse), avoiding people’s eyes.

He then approached Andrea Jeter and held out a piece of Fire Stone.

Andrea Jeter, a mana stone appraiser, recognized the Fire Stone right away.

“omg! Is it Firestone? “Thank you for this precious thing!”

He shamelessly received the fire stone and ignited it immediately.

A piece of firestone the size of a fingernail radiated intense heat.

Elio said something in passing to Andrea Jeter and her family who were gathered in front of the fire stone to warm up.

“Not all adventurers are poor.”

“Of course. Is there anyone who doesn’t know the adventurer’s ‘high risk, high return’? “People don’t know that, but really rich people go on adventures.”

As he spoke, Andrea Jeter tapped his wife’s elbow.

“sorry. I think I spoke carelessly without knowing much about adventurers. And, thank you so much. Synclaire, you should say hello too.”

Embarrassed, she quickly dragged her daughter in.

Synchre Jeter placed his hands neatly together and bowed his waist.

“Thank you for keeping me warm.”

Elio returned to the group only after being greeted by Syncrair Jeter.

Fabian asked as soon as he returned.

“Aren’t we there?”

“The repairs will be completed soon. “If it’s cold, run a small heavenly circuit.”

Fabian, who had been pouting, finally said a word.

“The Fire Stone was taken from the Hirhera Garrison. “Honestly, you’re not rich, are you?”

“I’m not rich, but I’m not poor either. “Have you forgotten that there are two territories?”

Since everything was true, Fabian could not respond and turned his gaze elsewhere.

However, the repair, which seemed like it would be completed quickly, remained at a standstill for over an hour.

Finally, the person in charge of transportation stepped forward, spoke with the drivers, and then approached Elio and his group.

“It is said that the wheel axle was bent and broke while being straightened. There are no other parts, so you have to buy them from the blacksmith, but you have to go another hour to reach the village. It will take another two hours until the repairs are completed. So, speaking of which… … .”

Leon Toros paused for a moment and looked at the three men.

With clothes that give off a sense of conquest and a long sword at his waist, he is either a free knight or a mercenary.

So I’m more cautious about dealing with it, but I actually feel reassured in situations like this.

“I think I’ll have to stay here for about two hours. “Can I do that?”

Fabian came forward on behalf of the group.

“Even my family? “I think it might be a bit too much for women and children.”

“I will do my best to create a place for my wife and daughter. However, it is difficult to reach a position for men.”

Coincidentally, there is a child in the other carriage, so if an adult holds him and rides, there is room for him.

No matter how much you squeeze, that’s all.

Because there is no one in the world who would want to have a grown man sit on their lap.

Fabian turned to Count Elio Lagoa and Count Larva Omar.

When the two people nodded, they immediately spoke to the transportation manager.

“Please do so.”

“Thank you for your understanding. Do you by any chance need a guard?”

“We are fine. Please protect other passengers well.”

“thank you.”

Leon Toros again approached Andrea Jeter’s family and told them the same thing.

Soon after, Andrea Jeter’s wife and daughter followed the transportation director.

After sending the two carriages and guards away first, Elio and his party approached the Fire Stone.

Andrea Jeter greeted the men with a smile on her face.

“Welcome, adventurers.”

Elio and the others gave him a quick greeting and then stood around the fire stone.

There was an awkward silence between the four people.

But that too is only for a moment.

The playful Fabian suddenly asked Andrea Jeter with a straight face.

“Mr. Jeter, do you know who we are and welcome us like that?”

“You are adventurers… … .”

“Mr. Jeter, the Coral Company’s mana stone appraiser, is on his way to the Principality of Fatima to monitor illegal mana stone transactions between the branch and the mine, is that correct?”

“Yes, that’s right, but… … . Why is that? No way, no way… … “It’s not like that, is it?”

Andrea Jeter’s complexion turned pale as she thought, ‘These three men might be after her.’

Fabian smiled sinisterly and continued speaking.

“Hehehe, do you still not understand why we were left alone here? Mr. Jeter, Mana Stone Appraiser.”

“Are you telling me to cooperate with an illegal transaction?”

“So what?”

“No, I can’t. As a member of the Jeter Barons, I am not involved in anything illegal. “It has been that way until now, and it will continue to be that way.”

“I guess you don’t want to see your wife and daughter again? Mr. Jeter?”

“… … .”

Andrea Jeter trembled at the unexpected words, looking like she was about to faint.

Elio, who was worse off, stepped forward.

“Fabian, you’re being naughty. Mr. Jeter, don’t be alarmed. “That guy was talking nonsense.”

“joke… … What? Isn’t that really true?”

Andrea Jeter’s eyes were still frightened as she asked the question as if to confirm.

“Yes, no. Fabian, please apologize. Even when joking, you have to watch the other person and play it in moderation. What a terrible thing to do to someone you don’t know! “Just do that!”

When Elio complained, Fabian bowed his head to Andrea Jeter.

“sorry. Mr. Jeter. My prank went too far. The atmosphere was awkward, so I did it with the intention of clearing things up… … I think a line has been crossed. Please forgive me. We are not those people. “I’m going on an honest adventure.”

Only then did the color return to Andrea Jeter’s face little by little.

However, he was unable to smile as brightly as before due to his discomfort with the unidentified men.

As promised, the person in charge of transportation arrived with the parts within 2 hours.

After completing repairs, the carriage moved again.

After driving for an hour, a village appeared that was incomparably larger than before.

Only then did Andrea Jeter’s frozen face finally relax.

But that comfort didn’t last long.

Leon Toros, the transportation manager who came to greet them outside the restaurant, said with a stern expression.

“Your wife and daughter suddenly disappeared 30 minutes ago. He went to the general store to buy something, but he didn’t come back, so I went to find it… … . He said he had already been gone for a while. “Guards are searching all over the village right now, but it looks like they’ve been kidnapped.”

Andrea Jeter, who had been listening blankly, turned to Fabian.

“Hey, this is a joke too, right? Is that so?”
