Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1224



Only Noblemtl

Episode 1224. Great ruling!

Guards and three carriages, escorted by the Phoenix Knights, passed through the gates.

Andrea Jeter kept his back stiff and didn’t move a muscle.

I thought he was a wandering adventurer, but he turns out to be a count.

He is a man of such high stature that the Margrave even sent the commander of the knights to escort him.

To him, who was only a member of the barons, the count was someone he could not even dare to look at.

Even his wife, Shine Cowles, was alert and didn’t even make a sound.

As a former baron, she was well aware of the ferocity of great nobles.

In a word, a great nobleman is a tiger.

No one knows what a tiger is thinking.

To be honest, she was both happy and afraid that Synclair’s teacher was a great nobleman.

Because it was literally like riding on the back of a tiger.

Unlike his parents, who were confused by expectations and fears, Syncrair Jeter was only happy.

Because it was much better to be a count than to have a master who was a wanderer.

Meanwhile, the Wayne Scotts in the other carriage were not even able to breathe.

The two people did not open their mouths after the adventurer’s identity was revealed.

I didn’t show it on the outside for the sake of respect, but inside I was indescribable pain.

It’s not because I’m jealous of Syncrair Jeter’s good fortune.

I was worried about what would happen if I slandered an adventurer without knowing he was a count.

That was the same for other nobles who joined in slandering the adventurer.

Apart from the complicated screening of the nobles, the carriage ran down the road safely under the escort of knights.

***

Written by Marquess Reg Evans.

Not only the passengers, but also the transport manager and five guards were ushered into the banquet hall.

As Elio and his party entered, the marquis’ butler shouted loudly.

“The guardian of Scutum (ice wall) who protects the continent from those vicious demons! The rightful ruler of Latinus, Duchy of Lorraine and the Northern Slashlands! A great grand master who stands shoulder to shoulder with the legitimate son of the sword, Archduke Kaiser Knauf! Count Elio Lagoa is entering!”

After his introduction, the waiting bardos began playing in unison.

Magnificent music shook the banquet hall.

When the short performance ended, the nobles gathered in the banquet hall clapped like crazy.

Clap clap clap!

Margrave Reg Evans approached Count Elio Lagoa with a bright smile.

“Count Lagoa, welcome. I am Marquess Reg Evans, Lord of Odessa. “We warmly welcome you to the gateway city of Odessa.”

Despite his high status, he greeted Count Elio Lagoa first.

“This is Elio Lagoa.”

After greeting Elio, Marquis Reg Evans’ gaze turned to the back.

“I believe they are Count Larva Omar and Baron Fabian Cloud. “Nice to meet you.”

“This is Count Larva Omar. “It is an honor to meet you.”

“This is Baron Fabian Cloud.”

After the brief greeting, Marquis Reg Evans led Count Elio Lagoa and his party to the head table.

Marquis Reg Evans and Count Elio Lagoa sat side by side, and Count Larva Omar and Fabian took their seats next to them.

The marquis’s servants took the passengers who were standing around to the seats provided on one side.

Marquis Reg Evans, who prepared this special banquet, spoke first.

“I’ve heard a lot. Is Scutum safe now?”

“Yes, I heard that the rift is returning to its original state. “It is said that the power of the creator god came back to life when the zarat (bone fragment with the curse engraved on it) was removed.”

“iced coffee! That’s good. I heard that he also fought against demon lords… … . “Is it true?”

“It just so happened that it happened that way.”

“That’s amazing. “The Demon Lord is stronger than the Sword Master, right?”

Marquis Reg Evans looked at Count Elio Lagoa with new eyes.

He only looks like he’s in his mid-twenties, but it’s surprising to hear him sound like a grand master.

“It’s very strong.”

Elio did not speak for long.

It must be said that there is no human who can fight on equal footing with a demon lord.

If it weren’t for the Nine Heavenly Sword Spirit, he would have been buried in the ground.

Marquis Reg Evans, having satisfied his curiosity to some extent, slowly changed the topic.

“really! I have heard from His Majesty the King that Viscount Crowe has committed a great mistake against Count Lagoa. “What on earth happened?”

“During my travels, I picked up a young disciple. But over that, the nobleman of Viscount Crow cursed at me as if I was a pervert. “The disciple’s father was even beaten by him.”

“Huh! How could something like that happen? Is that crazy person here?”

“yes.”

“You could have killed him on the spot, but why did you keep him alive until now?”

Marquis Reg Evans looked at Count Elio Lagoa with bewildered eyes.

Even if you are a noble, if you fall outside the eyes of a great noble, you will die.

The law is that if you wear it on your ear, it’s an earring, and if it’s on your nose, it’s a nose ring, so it wasn’t a problem.

That is why ordinary nobles are afraid of great nobles.

However, I don’t know why Count Elio Lagoa, who had a power comparable to that of Archduke Knauf in the empire, kept such a person who deserved to die alive.

“Ah, is that enough to kill me?”

Marquis Reg Evans burst out laughing at the naive Count Elio Lagoa’s rebuttal.

“Hahaha! Did you ask if you could kill me? Great nobles kill even if they don’t like the look in their opponent’s eyes. There is no need to say anything, much less if you cursed.”

“Wouldn’t it be a legal problem if you just killed someone like that?”

“What kind of naive words are you saying? The law is for subordinates to follow. “The great nobles enact and enforce the laws. Who would hold the great nobles accountable?”

“and. “It’s an amazing world.”

Elio’s mouth opened wide.

Is this a messed up world the upper world?

At this moment, I wonder what the distinction between the upper world and the lower world means.

The Marquis of Reg Evans seemed to have thought what he said was a bit harsh, so he expressed his disapproval.

“Of course, if you kill people too much, even the great nobles can get in trouble. “Well, even so, insulting a great noble is a serious crime and deserves to be put to death.”

“I learned a lot today.”

“So, what are you going to do with those sinners?”

Marquis Reg Evans looked at Count Elio Lagoa with curious eyes.

“They say Baron Scott is here, is that correct?”

“Yes. Just in case, I captured Viscount Crowe’s in-laws, Baron Scott and Baron Cotton. By any chance, are Wain Scott and Izza Crow guilty of insulting Count Lagoa?”

Marquis Reg Evans’ eyes sparkled.

Since there was no one for Viscount Crowe in Odessa, he captured Baron Scott with the feeling that he would be a chicken instead of a pheasant, but when I looked at him, it seemed like he had figured it out correctly.

“That’s right. Those two couples took the lead in slandering me and my students. Are you saying I’m a pervert who paid money to buy a young girl or something… … .”

“her! At that level, I won’t say anything even if he is burned at the stake instead of hanged. Count Bert Pons! Did you hear? Arrest serious criminals immediately… … .”

“wait for a sec.”

Elio interrupted Marquis Reg Evans.

Marquis Reg Evans pushed Count Verte Pons back when Count Elio Lagoa stepped forward.

“Because I’m not the type of person to put off my own work to others.”

“ah! Excuse me. I guess I was so excited that I crossed the line. Do as Count Lagoa wishes.”

“Please call Baron Scott first.”

Then Marquis Reg Evans gave a chin gesture to Count Berthe Pons, the commander of the knights.

Count Bert Pons left the banquet hall and soon returned with an elderly man.

As soon as the elderly man, Baron Grianscot, saw Marquess Reg Evans, he fell flat on his face.

“Marquis! “Please just spare my life!”

The performance stopped due to Baron Grian Scott’s scream.

Wayne Scott, who found his father belatedly, hurriedly ran forward.

Marquis Reg Evans said, frowning in displeasure.

“Why do you sin against Count Lagoa and ask me to spare your life?”

Baron Grianscot turned his head to Count Elio Lagoa.

“Count Lagoa! “Please save me!”

Wayne Scott, who only then realized the situation, knelt down next to his father.

“Wrong! Please forgive me!”

Elio, who was looking down at Wayne Scott, turned his gaze towards the passengers.

The corner of his mouth turned up when he saw Iza Crow, who was looking pale.

Eventually, Elio’s mouth opened.

“Baron Scott. “In the empire, what is the punishment for insulting a great nobleman?”

“Depending on the severity of the crime, they are subject to imprisonment, forced labor, slavery, or hanging.”

“If someone called me a pervert and scum, what kind of punishment should I give them?”

Baron Grian Scott closed his eyes tightly.

I heard something vaguely from the knight commander on the way, but I didn’t know it was to that extent.

“… … “He is hanged.”

“Okay, you’re an honest man. Who does the Baron think deserve to be hanged? Is this a baron who raised his children incorrectly? Or is he the son of the baron who insulted me?”

After hesitating for a while, Baron Grian Scott responded with a crawling sound.

“… … “I think adults should take responsibility for their actions.”

“Isn’t the Baron guilty of raising his children wrong?”

Then Baron Grianscot raised his head.

“I have two sons and a daughter, but my other children were raised well.”

They say it’s not their fault.

Wayne Scott, who was lowering his head, looked at his father with resentful eyes.

Elio asked Wain Scott this time.

“Wayne Scott. Whose fault do you think this is? Is it the Baron’s fault for teaching you wrong? Or is it that the Baron taught you well, but you are the only one who is crooked?”

“Isn’t it said that children are the mirror of their parents? “It is my father who made me like this.”

That’s true.

Wain Scott was now in a state of despair at his father who had ordered him to be killed.

Elio, who was looking down at the two people, said with a satisfied face.

“with pleasure. I was wondering how to handle this problem, and he gave me a very good answer. “Marquis, since both people claim that it is the other’s fault, it is clear that both of them have committed a crime.”

An awkward smile appeared on Marquis Reg Evans’ lips.

I said a little while ago that you shouldn’t kill people too much, but now you’re on the verge of killing a father and a son.

“Do you really want the Count to hang those two?”

“I think hanging them is a bit much, and I’d like to turn those two into slaves. “If you were a slave, you wouldn’t be able to slander or curse others, right?”

“Good verdict! “I am truly moved by Count Lagoa.”

When Marquis Reg Evans suddenly stood up and applauded, the nobles in the banquet hall followed suit.

After a while, when the applause died down, Marquis Reg Evans gave an order to the knight commander.

“Remove the criminals’ titles and nobility, and list them as slaves in Odessa.”

“yes!”

Soon, Count Bert Pons called out to the surrounding guards with a wave of his hand.

Four knights approached and grabbed Baron Scott and his son by the arms and dragged them away.

When Marquis Reg Evans glanced at the Bardos, the performance began again.
