I Returned As the Governor of the Country That Abandoned Me - I Returned As the Governor of the Country That Abandoned Me chapter 36

36 – Tiny Little Blue Moon

Catch-

“.. Russell..”

Aiming at him sword facing me, Alfred called his name in a low voice.

“In the end, is this your choice?”

“Because the queen was incompetent, the country collapsed! The country of chivalry, Hailan, has lost its reputation.”

Saying that, Russell swung his sword. He stood out for his sword-wielding trajectory, posture, and sophistication, but his sword never penetrated me.

“The weightlifters admitted treason. Arrest them all.”

Alfred’s command fell before long. Accordingly, dozens of soldiers passed us by and started suppressing the resistance standing behind us.

“Don’t come this way.”

As some of the kingdom troops approached this place, I told them.

“This person is not for you to deal with.”

The existence of a knight is not something that ordinary people can deal with. Especially if you can use Aura. You don’t have to make meaningless sacrifices just to catch this one person.

Wedge liquid-

I swung my sword at him. At one rapidly drawn curve, Russell gave up blocking my sword and stepped back.

Russell, who distanced himself from me for a while, corrected his posture and sword.

“Former Knight of the Kingdom Army, Russell Demardio.”

“This is the 3rd Commander of the Imperial Knights, Aran von Robertein.”

Determination of life and death. The moment they reveal their names to each other, this fight will not end until one of them dies.

“.. You are the newly appointed governor.”

“Do you know me?”

“Just tell me your name. Johana is slow with information.”

Me and this man’s sword collide again. I could feel it the moment I crossed swords with this man. That this man’s beliefs are not turbid.

It felt different from Dave, who shared swords last time. At that time, his black color was cloudy, but this man was not like that.

[I wish for a revolution in this world.]

[I hope for the glory of my empire.]

There was no hesitation in his sword stabbing me. However, if he shouts without hesitation, he will see a gap. Others may be overwhelmed by the momentum and bewildered, but I am not.

The swiftly flying sword gets out of its trajectory with a slight movement. I lightly swung my sword towards the body of the other person who was exposed like that.

[This world is wrong.]

[You are the one who is wrong.]

As my sword collides with his, as I swing my sword, large and small wounds begin to be carved on his body one by one.

Sword dialogue. We didn’t open our mouths to each other, but we can still understand what each other wants to say.

Uh woo woo woo-

At that time, a yellow light began to emanate from his greatsword. An aura that projects his own beliefs onto the sword. He started putting an aura into his sword.

Accordingly, I also put a blue aura on my sword. The moment he saw my aura, it was then that his eyes widened for a moment.

Soon he smiled. Laughter, as if in vain.

His huge greatsword clad in an aura flew at me. To the sword that quickly flew by asking me to talk, I did not dodge but responded by responding.

[Little Knight of the Empire, you don’t know how well the Kingdom fought against the Empire.]

Unbeknownst to me, a little emotion was carried into that sword that spoke to me.

The transition to attack. You say I don’t know how well the kingdom fought? No way. I was on that front too.

I swung my sword silently without answering his words. Even though I didn’t respond to his sword, he continued his talk.

[Hairan is a country of chivalry. We fought well to live up to that reputation.]

Yellow and blue collide. The colors emitted by the two swords may look beautiful to other people, but not to us.

Because the two colors that are splendidly intertwined can turn into red at any moment.

[The battle was lost due to one person’s ignorance and mistake, and we surrendered to the Empire.]

Former Minister of Defense of the kingdom, Lloyd von Echiseel. The person who decisively caused the kingdom to lose in the war against the empire.

[If she hadn’t been younger than the queen at the time, if she had been smarter, she wouldn’t have carried out such a strategy.]

The queen was 15 at the time. A war broke out shortly after her accession. Despite her young age, she was excellent at stabilizing the kingdom, but she was too young to defend it from the great violence of war.

[Because of that, I lost dozens of colleagues and servants.]

Saying that, his great sword swung at me. I silently listened to his words and struck his sword.

Bang- Bang-

As we collided our swords, the house surrounding this place began to collapse. No matter how well it is built, it is a wooden building. At least this much, we couldn’t stand the exchange of swords.

[So, I want a republic.]

With him, his greatsword wielded by me. I silently looked at the determination contained within that greatsword.

His greatsword mixed with various emotions such as anger, sadness, and pity. There was no reason to just hit the greatsword flying at me, so I faced his sword with even more aura.

Kwaguagua-

From noble mtl dot com

He who crossed swords with me, couldn’t overcome my sword and flew back. It was only then that I came to my senses and looked around, and the house we were in already had only the grounds left for a long time.

‘.. Oh my..’

Alfred and Flos are looking this way from a little distance away. And I saw the soldiers of the kingdom and the suppressed resistance. Before the house collapsed, they seemed to have managed to escape on their own.

‘How much time has passed.’

Looking at the other side, the figures of Serena and Ariel also caught my eye. Looking at the two people returning, it is clear that quite a lot of time has passed.

‘By the way, is it just one person?’

It was then that a girl caught the eye under the feet of the two. It seems like they said there were five people, but in the end, only one was arrested.

Cool-

Soon, Russell, who was blown backwards by my sword, stood up again while clearing the wreckage. A huge greatsword that still hasn’t been let go. He still intends to confront me.

It was meaningless to exchange more swords. Russell, already exhausted. He seemed to find it difficult to even stand.

So, I decided to put an end to this meaningless thing now.

Ugh-

The surrounding scenery changes. A vast plain and an immeasurable sky. Above it, a small but blue moon began to loftily rise.

At the same time, my blue sword started crying sadly. Is it because I felt something in my image? Russell’s arms that held the greatsword were trembling little by little.

“This is…”

After confirming that the scenery around him has changed, Russell drools. Even so, he calmed his trembling arms and gripped his greatsword tightly. He too will know now. That this moment is the last.

He started running towards me. There seemed to be no hesitation in the greatsword he wielded, but I could feel it. His hesitation in the face of the fear of death.

Pu-wook-

Hesitation is no different from showing weakness to the opponent.

In an instant, my sword dug into Russell’s body as he rushed towards me. It was then that a ray of red light began to scatter on this blue-lit plain.

Tung-

Accordingly, he dropped the greatsword he was holding onto the floor. Maybe it’s because of the lack of power. However, as if the power was completely lost, the two legs that were standing never knelt.

“Lloyd von Ekisel. I have destroyed his family.”

Is it because I heard unexpected words? Hearing my words, his eyes widened.

“Thank you.”

However, he regained his senses and said with a faint smile.

His breathing is getting lighter. Proof that there is little time left for him to remain in this world. And that time will probably end when I draw out my sword.

Is it because of the fear of death? It was then that he grabbed my arm hard as I tried to pull the sword from his body. As if not to pull out.

No, he might still have something to say to me.

When I gave up on pulling the sword out of his body and relaxed, he also began to loosen the grip on my arm.

Soon, he began to gaze at the empty sky with a subtle smile. At the end of his line of sight is a tiny blue moon floating alone.

“Beautiful.. The moon is shining… “

Accordingly, I also moved my gaze toward the moon floating in the sky.

Then he nodded. A beautiful little moon. From the moment I first met that moon, I never denied the beauty of that moon.

“A human being .. He has a beauty that he does not have… It’s the law to envy… “

After saying that, his voice gradually started to fade. Even if I don’t draw my sword, it’s the same that his time is running out.

Crimson waves ride my sword and flow to the floor. The strength of his body that supports him gradually fades away, and little by little he becomes free from my sword.

“Someday… The one who will destroy the moon… Will appear…”

His voice keeps getting smaller. His body drooped accordingly. But I didn’t care about him and just looked at the moon and thought.

That moon will never break.

The sun and the moon. If the moon wanted to be the only one, I would gladly cut down the sun.

That little blue moon floating alone in the air is not as weak as it seems.

After thinking about it, I pulled out the sword from his body. The spark of his life as he knelt down had already burned out a long time ago.

‘Please, appear before me.’

I said to him as he knelt down and closed his eyes. Please appear in front of me as much as you like. Whoever wants to destroy my moon, I will make you like him.
