Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1235



Only Noblemtl

Episode 1235. Are you asking me to come out? Are you telling me not to?

A six-seater carriage is divided into compartments with seats, but is basically one space.

Naturally, conversations in first class can be heard in third class.

Fabian muttered in response to the pompous words of a young nobleman called Baron Solon.

“He’s a real man.”

“Why are you jealous?”

“I can’t say no. Isn’t that true of Lord Lagoa?”

“Are you jealous of chartered carriages? Are you jealous of beautiful women?”

“It’s a chartered carriage.”

“Just put spit on your lips and say something like that.”

“Why do you tell me to apply saliva to my lips in the winter?”

“In my hometown, that’s what you tell people who lie. “I don’t know why.”

“ah… … Are you saying that it’s okay to lie and put spit on it? “I guess you grew up in a pretty rough place?”

Elio glanced back at Fabian.

It’s a phrase I always use, but it’s surprising that it can be accepted that way.

“Rough? “This place is no more or less than my hometown.”

“Is that so? “It’s difficult for people to live anywhere.”

The two people looked out the window and lost themselves in their own thoughts.

It was winter, but the further south you went, the warmer the weather became.

After about 15 days, the temperature rose to the point where it was difficult to find snow on the roads anymore.

The further south you go, the more villages there are, making traveling by stagecoach easier.

Since the village was only an hour away, there was no need to advance or delay meal times.

There was no need to sleep on the street or eat a quick meal on the road.

***

Duchy of Crowley.

Shine Hall Pioneer Village.

Five carriages entered the village entrance under the red-hot setting sun.

Although it belonged to the empire, unlike other places, a wooden fence surrounded the village.

The clothing and weapons of the people guarding the entrance to the wooden fence were all different.

Elio saw that and muttered to himself.

“It looks like this place doesn’t have any spiritual diseases.”

“It will be a pioneer village.”

“Pioneer village?”

“Lords do not send soldiers to unexplored lands. “When people flock to such a place and settle down, it is called a pioneer village.”

“So are those people vigilantes?”

“I guess so.”

Elio nodded, knowing what he meant.

So, in terms of strength, it would be like a slash-and-burn village.

“Still, it’s quite a bustling place for a pioneer town, huh?”

There were so many decent buildings in the village that I felt sorry for comparing it to a slash-and-burn village.

“Iknow, right. “If it’s this size, the lord will soon send an army to take over the village.”

“Is it good? “Is it bad?”

“It will be half and half. “It may be painful to have to pay taxes that you haven’t paid until now, but the lord’s army will protect the village from thieves and wild beasts.”

“The villagers will hate it. “They must have come here because they don’t have money to pay taxes.”

“But if it’s this size, there will be money to pay taxes.”

“Not everyone is rich. “What about people who don’t have money to pay taxes?”

“I have to leave for the unexplored again.”

“Wow, that’s cruel.”

“That is how we develop the metallurgy territory. “There are so many people, we can’t just leave it as a lawless place, right?”

“What’s the point of lawlessness when vigilantes protect themselves?”

“If we were to call them vigilantes, there would only be a few of them. With that number, even a single mercenary can’t stop them if they make a fuss. “People who have money to pay taxes will want the lord’s army to come.”

“her.”

Elio did not refute any more.

This is because there will be people who want to live stably even in pioneer villages.

There were five carriages, but three of them were packhorses, so there were only twelve passengers.

As soon as the twelve passengers entered the tavern, they dispersed and took their seats.

A man and a woman sat across from each other in a corner of the tavern.

Baron Howard Solon, his companion, and a large man in second class.

Baron Howard Solon asked the escort knight, Taine Lok, vaguely.

“So, what are these people doing?”

“I tried my name and they say I’m an adventurer.”

“Are you a mercenary?”

“Rather, if you look at the way he speaks and the way he dresses, he appears to be a Free Knight.”

“Thank goodness.”

Then Crea, the beautiful woman who accompanied him, pursed her lips and asked.

“What are you happy about? Because you’re not a mercenary? “I’m a mercenary too, right?”

“So you believe in mercenaries?”

When Baron Howard Solon asked back, Crea slowly turned her head.

This is because there is literally a difference between a mercenary and a criminal.

When she looked away, Baron Howard Solon turned his head back to Tyne Rock.

“How did your level of swordsmanship look?”

“If you look at things that cannot be measured, it seems like you are better than me.”

Tain-rok answered honestly without any additions or omissions.

“It’s a shame. If I wasn’t an adventurer, I would have reaped it… … .”

Adventurers don’t like being tied down, so it wasn’t easy to make a contract with them.

Crea, who was looking at the adventurers, whispered.

“Are they going to the Great Forest too?”

“I don’t know.”

“Otherwise, why would you go to the South during this war? These days, the imperial court is encouraging adventurers to go to the Great Forest. “They say that the only people who can go outside the empire’s borders right now are adventurers.”

Because the war was sparked by the treasures of the Abyss, the empire was eager to send adventurers to the forest.

Even stagecoach access to the southern kingdom has become more difficult, while adventurers are skipping security checks.

Baron Howard Solon reluctantly nodded.

If they were truly adventurers, there was a high probability that their final destination would be the Abyss.

“so? “What do you want to say?”

“I thought we could go together if our destination is the same.”

Baron Howard Solon did not respond, but he clearly looked uncomfortable.

He doesn’t like the idea of ​​three other men coming between him and Crea.

“Well, that’s fine. “If there are a lot of people, I think they will get tired from the attention of the southern kingdom.”

“Wouldn’t being tired be better than screaming and dying? “No one knows whether the adventurers who entered the Southern Kingdom are dead or alive.”

“Do you think you will kill imperial adventurers in the Southern Kingdom?”

“What can’t they do when the Abyss’ treasure has led to a war with the empire?”

“You’re going to the Great Forest even though you know that?”

“I’m also an adventurer. “What’s there to be afraid of when you have a strong helper like the Baron with you?”

“What if I refuse to join them? Will you leave me and go to them?”

“It can’t be. “Is there a more capable helper than Baron Solon, the genius knight of the Principality of Topla?”

“Then don’t bring up that story anymore. Because I’m in a good mood right now.”

“Am I not good? Hehe! Don’t show a straight face. just joke. “I know my subject well.”

Crea quickly picked up his beer glass and took a sip.

Baron Howard Solon is the second son of the Marquis of Solon, a historic nobleman of the Duchy of Topla.

Although he was far from succession to the title, he acquired the title of baron on his own and became a free knight to roam the empire to ensure peace for his family.

Meanwhile, in the Principality of Fatima, he met Crea, a mercenary, and started traveling with him.

The guard knight, Tain Rok, was a knight who had been guarding him for a long time in the count’s family.

Tain-rok just ate the stew in silence.

Both Baron Solon and Crea had a point.

Although it is safer in large numbers, it is not a good idea to attract the attention of the southern kingdom.

‘Now is the perfect time… … .’

I don’t know about that.

In the first place, the reason he overcame fierce competition and became a knight of the Marquis of Solon was for the sake of success.

My goal in life was to receive a title for my merits, but I am now quite far from that.

When I was appointed as Baron Solon’s bodyguard, I knew that my path to advancement was blocked.

The future of knighthood is open only when it goes to the legitimate successor, that is, the eldest son.

This is because, even as a bodyguard for an ordinary nobleman, he cannot surpass the title of the nobleman he serves.

‘It’s probably because I’m from a wild people.’

I learned too late that the great nobles also considered origin and lineage when selecting bodyguard knights.

Now, the only way for him to get ahead is to move up through the merits of Baron Solon.

However, Baron Solon has actually become an adventurer and is flirting with a woman… … .

‘Should I just kill them all and just become a mercenary?’

That was his concern these days.

The tavern was crowded with customers, but Elio and his group were all mana users, so their ears were bright.

Fabian, who happened to overhear what Baron Solon and his group were saying, chuckled.

“Who are you laughing at? “Is life like being depressed and then happy?”

“I’m not crazy. Baron Solon and his party in first class.”

“Why those people?”

“I think what you’re talking about are adventurers.”

“Did you overhear someone else talking again?”

“How do you not hear what comes to your ears automatically, rather than being overheard?”

“If you hear it, you should let it go. “Do you think Lord Omar has no ears and cannot hear?”

“I’m still at a low level, so I have a hard time letting go.”

“It’s not a matter of territory, it’s because I have a lot of useless curiosity. “If you have any questions, ask them honestly. I keep eavesdropping.”

“Oh really. Because I didn’t overhear. “I’m not that mean.”

“Say so. “We are adventurers, so what should we do?”

“It looks like they are also going to the Great Forest.”

“What’s wrong with that? Two-legged animals can’t go anywhere. “Tell them to go.”

Elio didn’t care.

What does it matter whether people who don’t even know go to the Great Forest or not?

“I want the woman to come with us, but the Baron is against it.”

“I guess I instinctively knew you were dating a woman.”

“Don’t you think you will encounter that Baron and his group often in the future?”

“Either it or not.”

Elio didn’t try to listen at all.

Even if I beg to let you go with me, I don’t know if they will listen or not, but they say they don’t want to, so I’m just thankful.

At that time, Count Larva Omar said something in passing.

“The man sitting next to me. I am a reiki practitioner. “It seems like he comes from a wild people.”

“A big man?”

Elio showed interest.

He became interested not because he was a ‘wild man’ but because he was a ‘reiki practitioner’ like himself.

That’s because that man was the first Reiki practitioner I met when I came to this world.

“Yes, I felt it a little while ago when I was releasing some energy. I think I did it to try to establish myself… … . “It resembled Lord Lagoa’s energy.”

“Are you saying that he released his energy to reach the level of Lord Omar? “He is a bold man.”

Energy is released when our bodies are in contact!

That was a difficult action to do until you were confident in your own power.

“I didn’t sense any malice, so I pretended not to notice and turned a blind eye.”

“So something like that happened.”

Fabian, who had been depressed for a moment, revived.

“It wasn’t just me. “I guess they were curious about who we were, too.”

However, Elio and Count Larva Omar no longer mentioned Baron Solon and his party.

As the conversation died down, Fabian eventually changed the topic to something else.

The next morning.

The Stagecoach Transport Association wagons departing from the pioneer village entered the Dolos Corridor.

Did it run like that for about thirty minutes?

Suddenly, ‘Pow! pop-!’ The sound of a magic bullet rang out, and the carriage running in front stopped.

The guards running at the front hurriedly ran back to the carriage and shouted.

“It’s an attack!”

“Don’t get out of the carriage!”

“There are many enemies! Anyone who can fight, please come out and help the guards!”

Fabian scratched his head and muttered as the guards shouted.

“Are you asking me to come out? “Are you telling me not to?”
