Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1338

Episode 1338. Have you ever seen a case like this?
The command center of the Corvo Magic Legion fell silent.
Duke Killian Hale’s eyes turned to Count Elio Lagoa.
The Grand Master’s transfer is an unprecedented event in human history.
‘Are you trying to tame Count Lagoa since he has no foundation in the empire?’
If the opponent had been Archduke Kaiser Knauf, he could have quietly covered it up.
When I thought about that, I suddenly felt bad.
His friendship with Count Elio Lagoa is famous throughout the empire.
Nevertheless, the fact that he was ‘transported’ means that his existence is limited to the Crown Prince and Marquis Theo Stauren.
In addition to the fact that Corvo’s magic corps had been taken over by the Steel Legion, an unpleasant feeling crept up from underneath me.
Duke Killian Hale, who could not stand it any longer, opened his mouth.
“I believe Count Lagoa’s testimony. That’s why I think what the Ministry of Intelligence is doing is wrong. From now on, don’t even think about involving me in Count Lagoa’s affairs. Speak clearly. “The enemy of Corvo’s magic army is the Southern Kingdom army, not Count Lagoa.”
However, Count Karl Bamut was rather relieved to hear those words.
This is because Duke Killian Hale said he would not get involved in Count Lagoa’s problems.
Although there were strong opponents, there was no one who disliked the idea that it would disappear on its own.
He made sure to keep Duke Killian Hale from changing his mind.
“I will respect His Excellency Duke Killian Hale’s statement that ‘I will not be involved in this matter.’ “I will report the same to His Majesty the Crown Prince.”
The words ‘ah’ are different and ‘uh’ are different.
Count Karl Bamut changed Duke Killian Hale’s words, saying ‘I will not fight for the Crown Prince’, to their advantage.
Duke Killian Hale also knew the intention behind the words, but did not bother to point it out.
This is because whether it was an upset or a match, the result was the same.
Moreover, continuing to stand against the crown prince’s side was not good for Corvo’s magic corps, so he had to step down at this point.
A smile of triumph appeared on the face of Count Karl Bamut, who had separated the Corvo magic corps from Elio Lagoa with just a few words.
Count Elio Lagoa was now completely isolated from the empire.
By the time the northern kingdoms learn of Count Elio Lagoa’s affairs, everything will have been arranged to the crown prince’s liking.
Count Karl Bamut turned his head to Count Elio Lagoa.
‘Hey, Count Lagoa. ‘What are you going to do now?’
I don’t know why, but the crown prince is behind this incident.
If Count Elio Lagoa bows to the Crown Prince, he will be reborn as the Crown Prince’s right-hand man, but if he resists, he will certainly be purged in the chaos of war.
But what is this?
Count Elio Lagoa looks like he is listening to someone else’s story.
‘Don’t you know that the Iron Legion has Battalion units armed with Exitium?’
It can happen if you don’t know.
“What do you think, Count Lagoa?”
Elio questioned Count Karl Bamut’s words.
“What?”
“As I just said… … . I have received orders to transfer Count Lagoa to the Special Investigation Headquarters of the Ministry of Intelligence if he admits the charges. Would you like to come with us to the Special Investigation Headquarters?”
“I’m busy so I don’t have time to go.”
“Are you saying that you will deny the Imperial Military Intelligence Department the proper enforcement of the law?”
Then Elio’s attitude, which had been polite until now, suddenly changed.
“You can’t attach the word ‘political party’ to anything. I killed Scorpion Company because they were killing civilians. But you have no interest in investigating such things. Is it okay to say that it is justified? That’s called political law enforcement. I’m not interested in your political games. So, let’s each do what we want to do. You do your job, and I’ll do mine. “It was said in the common language of the continent, so you understand what it means, right?”
Count Karl Bamut’s stomach was boiling, but he held back and refuted.
“The Count brought it upon himself. So why did you kill all of the Scorpion Company? “Even if you wanted to investigate, there’s nothing to investigate, right?”
“Even if it’s not the Scorpion Company, there are many places to investigate. I heard that the residents near Peromuros were killed by them. “Did you hear me?”
Elio’s tone became increasingly combative.
He was angry that he was only focusing on himself without any intention of investigating the deaths of the residents.
“Is there any evidence that they were killed by Scorpion Company? You said they were all dead? The Count now uses the excuse of an impossible task… … .”
“What is impossible? If you examine the corpse of a villager, magical bullets will pour out from the body. Could it be that the Southern Kingdom army fired magical bullets at its own people? Carl What kind of count did you call him? Is that thing on his shoulder a decoration? “Why does someone who is the equivalent of an intelligence officer have their head shaped like that?”
Count Karl Bamut also exploded at Count Elio Lagoa’s crude criticism.
“You are saying too much! I also had the same title as Lord. And even if magic bullets were found on the corpses of villagers! Who knows whether it is the Southern Kingdom army or the Empire army!”
Then Elio shook his shoulders and laughed.
“Hehehe. Hehehehe!”
Suddenly, Count Elio Lagoa laughed like a villain, and the Imperial Intelligence Department staff looked at each other in shock.
Count Elio Lagoa is a northern knight of barbarian origin and known for his roughness.
That means he could go crazy.
just as expected?
Elio verbally abused the intelligence staff.
“Hey, this dog! I told you I heard it from that company commander! He said he had wiped out more than ten villages, and he wanted to be tried in the Imperial Court! Are you ignoring me because I’m from the North? So you’re just paying attention to what I’m saying! Right?”
“… … .”
Count Karl Bamut froze in surprise at the sudden swearing.
When a count from the Imperial Military Intelligence Department goes out, he is treated on par with a marquis.
But it is a dog.
This was the first time in his life he had been humiliated like this.
Either way, Elio continued talking.
“If Archduke Knauf had said that, he wouldn’t have even thought about investigating. But I’m a country guy from the north, so I don’t need to testify and be naive, right? “Have you ever seen a case like this?”
Originally, Elio had a miserable upbringing and could not stand being ignored by others.
Additionally, he is a person who gets excited by what he says.
Finally, he spoke as if chewing and spitting out every word, even his eyes rolling.
“Whether it’s the Crown Prince or the Marquis of Stauren, tell them not to talk nonsense. If you touch me, you will definitely pay the price. I will return the title given to me by the empire now, so go and tell it to the crown prince. Don’t be nervous. From now on, anyone who says ‘press transport’ in front of me will die. “If you know, get out of here, you bastards!”
Count Karl Bamut, who was listening with a bewildered expression, spoke in a clenched voice.
“The Count is now calling on His Imperial Highness… … .”
“shut up! Don’t even talk about being a crown prince in front of me. Say it like the crown prince one more time. “I’ll blow your face off.”
“The crown of the empire… … . evil!”
With a scream, Count Karl Bamut’s head jerked to the other side.
Viscount Lisa Cordot and Baron Claude Cuello, startled, jumped up from their seats.
“Count!”
“What are you doing?”
When Count Karl Bamut felt something hot in his nose, he hurriedly covered it with his hand.
His palms soon became wet with blood.
The shock was so great that Count Karl Bamut’s mind went blank.
Other intelligence officers who accompanied him also fell into a state of panic.
No matter how much you are a Grand Master, how dare you beat a count belonging to the Imperial Intelligence Department until it bleeds?
That was something that even the emperor of an empire would not do.
The same goes for Duke Killian Hale, who is surprised by the unexpected behavior.
He thought it was because Count Elio Lagoa did not yet know the power of the Iron Legion.
“Lord Lagoa. Take it easy. Corvo’s Magic Legion was pushed aside by the Steel Legion… … .”
“I know. “I heard the Batalion unit was armed with Exitium, right?”
“I knew it. The might of the Iron Legion is stronger than that of Corvo’s Magic Legion. Even if Lord Lagoa is the Grand Master, he must not look down on the Marquis of Stauren.”
“I don’t disrespect it.”
If that were the case, we would never have met with the Imperial Military Intelligence Department in the first place.
“Recently, I heard that the musketeers in the Batalion unit are being replaced with musketeers. That may be why the Imperial Military Intelligence Department is taking such a hard line.”
Count Karl Bamut, who had finally come to his senses, gritted his teeth and spoke.
“The Special Investigation Headquarters of the Imperial Military Intelligence Department is located in the Iron Legion. Do you think Marquis Stauren will just overlook today’s events?”
Then Elio raised his hand again.
At that moment, Count Karl Bamut shrugged his shoulders and took a step back.
“What if I don’t hand it over? what? Are they going to catch me with the Batalion unit? Then do you think I will be easily captured? “What kind of idiot am I?”
“Are you planning to rebel against the Empire?”
“I surrendered my earl title a while ago, so how can you call it treason? If I go around killing imperial soldiers, I will become a war hero. The alliance between the Southern Kingdom and the Northern Kingdom will become stronger. If I kill all of Batalion’s troops, how will the situation change? If I go out fighting the imperial army, do you think the northern kingdoms will just watch like they do now? I am the lord of the Northern Escatos Kingdom. “You bastard!”
“A war hero? Before that happens, he will be killed by Batalion’s troops!”
“Hey, what about the sword, Count?”
“It’s Karl Bamut!”
“Okay, what about Carl? Count. Have you forgotten that I am a magic swordsman? “I’m not a knight who only knows how to swing a sword.”
“Not even high-ranking wizards can stop Exitium!”
“know. Who is stopping you? What if I just run around and kill Batalion’s troops? I can even kill the Marquis of Stauren and the proud prince. “If I were to do that, how would I stop it?”
Then Count Karl Bamut shouted at Duke Killian Hale.
“Your Excellency the Duke! Are you just going to listen to Count Lagoa’s blasphemous remarks!”
“Didn’t I reveal my position earlier? “Please take care of the matter regarding Count Lagoa.”
“You have to figure it out! “Your Excellency the Duke just heard Count Lagoa say, ‘I will kill His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!’”
“You’re mistaken about something. I am only a Magus (7th circle wizard). “What do you expect from an old Magus like me?”
“Grunt!”
A groan came from Count Karl Bamut’s mouth.
It’s not wrong.
The only thing that could do anything to the Grand Master now was the Batalion unit.
Count Karl Bamut, who was shaking with his fists clenched, got up from his seat.
“I listened carefully to the answers of His Excellency Duke Killian Hale and Count Lagoa. “I will report to you that ‘Count Ah admitted to the charges, but he refused to be transported.’”
Then Elio spoke calmly.
“That’s not all. “Don’t forget to tell Marquis Stauren and the Crown Prince what I said.”
“All right.”
Count Karl Barmut bowed to Duke Killian Hale and left immediately.
