Returned Lord Wants To Rest - Returned Lord Wants To Rest chapter 63

Episode 63.

After wandering the streets for a while, I returned to the inn.

Ephinia was waiting for me at the inn.

“What did you come here for?”

“I found a dungeon where I thought there might be a lich.”

He remembered that Richie’s Life Vessel was needed for the Demon Summoning Line.

“Good for you. then···?”

“Yeah, do you want to go too?”

You said you asked for help from the Holy Empire.

Then you won’t have to go all the way to me.

“Have you canceled help from the Holy Empire of Epia?”

“No, just in case.”

I pondered for a while.

Richra…

“I’d like to see Richie once.”

“okay? thank god. That’s right, I’ll add an extra cost to the request.”

In a word, it was a story that more money would come in.

“I didn’t expect that.”

“So, don’t you like it?”

“I don’t like it. really good.”

Epinia informed me of the departure date.

Departure was two days later.

“You are in a hurry than I thought.”

There is still a lot of time left before the game with the devil is over.

Now that the demon summoning circle has been found, it is possible to interpret it.

It was as if I had found almost everything.

Even so, Epinia was in a hurry.

“I think it’s because I think the end is in sight.”

Ephinia’s heart understands.

However, there are times when you rush and make mistakes, so you have to be careful.

“I think it would be better to be more calm and meticulous.”

“I guess so.”

“By the way, where is the Lich’s dungeon?”

First of all, you need to know where the lich is.

If it’s too far, it’s hard to go. Then I will have to say again that I can’t go.

I am also a gladiator, so the match is waiting for me.

“It’s near the border between the Mycenaere Empire and the Loto Kingdom.”

Then it won’t be long.

It’s a distance that doesn’t take long to make a round trip.

“Then, when will the people of the Holy Empire of Epia arrive?”

“You must have arrived already?”

you already arrived?

Wasn’t it supposed to be leaving in two days?

My question was answered by Ephinia’s next words.

“The investigation team of the Holy Empire of Epia has known about Lich’s dungeon.”

Then it made sense that the people of the Holy Empire had already arrived.

If so, you should be getting ready by now.

“By the way, Ephinia, what if the people of the Holy Empire enter first?”

“Ah, wouldn’t it?”

In the Holy Empire, there are priests and paladins.

If you compare these two occupations to an ordinary kingdom or empire, they are wizards and knights.

One thing is different.

It is the use of divine power.

‘The reason I want to go to the Rich’s dungeon is…’

There were two.

I was curious about what kind of existence the lich was, and how those with divine power fought.

If the people of the Holy Empire enter first.

‘Because I can’t see these two things.’

Still, I don’t think I’ll go in first.

Because I called Epinia there.

“So, we’re leaving in two days, right?”

“huh. To be honest, I don’t have much to prepare, so I can leave tomorrow.”

If so, that’s fine with me.

“For me too, the sooner the better.”

“Then, if possible, I’ll do it in the direction of departure tomorrow.”

“yes.”

“Now I have to prepare, so I’ll leave.”

After escorting Ephinia, who was about to leave the inn, to the entrance, she entered the inn’s training ground.

‘Because there are tools for sharpening swords in the training ground.’

I went to the training ground with the idea of repairing the exorcism sword.

As soon as I arrived at the training ground, I noticed an unexpected situation.

From nob le mt l. co m

No, it may not be surprising.

I thought that one day it would be like this.

‘Patrick and Toner…’

The two were sparring.

And now it seemed like one last move.

Patrick shouted at Toner.

“You’d better do your best.”

“I mean.”

The moment Toner and Patrick crossed, the match was decided.

The wooden dagger and wooden curved sword they were holding were broken at the same time.

“Huh… it’s a draw.”

“I know.”

I thought the level of the two was the same, but at that level, I see it as a tie.

“Hey, Patrick!”

I approached Patrick.

Patrick spotted me and lowered his head.

“Good evening, Master!”

“Yeah, but sparring with Toner?”

“yes.”

As soon as Toner found me, I was uncomfortable, so I packed my things and left.

“That guy is really… a draw by the way?”

“yes.”

Patrick’s expression seemed a little distraught.

“Then why did the two of you suddenly engage in sparring?”

“Didn’t the two of us defeat Karak last time?”

It was.

I nodded.

“There was a simple problem.”

“problem?”

Why are you having problems?

what the hell is the problem

“Who contributed more?”

That’s it…

When I thought about it, a small car or something, both made a big contribution.

“I did the finishing touches…”

“Toner attacked a lot of gaps.”

“Yes, that’s right. However, the argument about which of the two contributed more has spread to an argument about who is stronger.”

‘Ohh.’

“That’s why the result was a draw.”

“Yes… To be honest, I had a lot of advantages.”

If it was a draw, it was good enough, but why is Patrick disintegrating?

“But I think I lost because I’m older.”

That’s… I wanted to give you words of comfort, but there was nothing I could say.

What Patrick said was also true.

If Toner was the same age as Patrick, Patrick clearly lost.

Toner was a genius.

“The future is still unknown. If you can’t close the gap, don’t catch up.”

“yes!”

Patrick also left the training ground.

I used the grooming tool provided in the corner of the training ground to trim the exorcism sword.

He was deep in thought as he sharpened his exorcist sword.

‘It’s been a long time since I used the exorcism sword.’

At first I thought it was a cowardly weapon.

‘Yeah, strange threads come out when I swing it.’

But it was not a cowardly weapon.

The thread had a purpose.

‘The owner of this exorcism sword is definitely…’

It must have been a sword master.

He must have reached full maturity as a sword master.

‘I don’t know if there is a higher level than the Sword Master.’

If so, the owner of the exorcism sword would surely have surpassed the sword master.

It was enough just to look at the mana breathing method he left behind.

‘It would be difficult even for a sword master to create such an excellent mana breathing method.’

After cleaning the exorcism sword, I went back to the inn room.

I have to go to Lich’s dungeon tomorrow, so I have to go to sleep.

* * *

The way to Lich’s dungeon.

Inside the carriage, I asked Ephinia.

“Isn’t the Messiah coming this time?”

“Yeah, because I have Amice.”

I glanced at Amice out of the corner of my eye.

middle-aged maid. I must have heard that she was the maid of honor.

“Amis maid, right?”

“Yes, that’s right. I heard about Mr. Cassias, or Mr. Suhar, through the Messiah.”

“is that so.”

It was Amice who treated her a little hard.

But, I suddenly had a question.

“By the way, the position is a position, so is it right for you to follow me all the way here?”

The maid of honor, that is also the chief maid of the imperial family.

He was not someone worthy of following the princess.

“Because it’s a lich’s dungeon, I’m here.”

What does it have to do with the Lich’s dungeon and the maid’s arrival?

“Suhar, Amis was a high priest in the Holy Empire.”

Was it a high priest?

Come to think of it, Amis seemed to exude nobility.

“It’s a thing of the past.”

Why is Amis, a high-ranking priest, serving as the maid of honor in the Mycenare royal family?

“If you were a high-ranking priest, you would have held a fairly high position in the Holy Empire.”

“that is···.”

It was Ephinia, who was watching Amice’s eyes.

Amis nodded as if it didn’t matter.

Then, an amazing story came out of Ephinia’s mouth.

“You were close with my mother. That’s why I came to the empire with my mother.”

Speaking of Ephinia’s mother… she was the first empress.

Although he left this world, he remembers that he was from the Holy Empire.

“okay.”

However, as far as I know, I remember that the first empress passed away at an early age.

“Well, my mother passed away early, but Armis remained for me, my mother’s blood relative.”

It’s a touching story.

“You can call me my mother.”

“That is a good story.”

However, Amis, who was listening from the side, sighed.

“If I knew I would grow up to be such a tomboy, I would have just left.”

“Ah, what’s wrong again?”

“Last time too! Ehh…”

Amis and Ephinia looked like mother and daughter.

“hahahaha, it’s nice to see you getting along well.”

I’m jealous.

Looking at these two, it reminded me of Tessiar’s mother, who must be in the family.

‘He must have been very sad.’

When I briefly returned to the Caldert family this time, I wrote a letter and went.

I just wrote a letter and couldn’t see my face, so I’m sure you’re very sad.

‘The next time I go, I must see the face of Tessiar’s mother.’

In no time, the wagon arrived at its destination.

The destination was a small town.

“Is there a lich here?”

From nob le mt l. co m

No matter how you look at it, it was a village where people lived.

“Ah, there are no riches in a place like this. It’s the basement of the town.”

underground?

“Then, what happened to the villagers here?”

If the dungeon was in the basement of the village, the people of this village would surely…

“Oh, you don’t have to worry about that. The villagers are all fine. They say it’s underground, but it’s buried in the ground.”

“then···?”

“The villagers are fine, and they have been evacuated now.”

I nodded and agreed.

However, the town seems a little noisy.

Someone knocked on the carriage door.

Ephinia, wearing a cloth to cover her face, lowered the wagon’s window.

“Are you the first princess?”

It was a knight in armor. Must be a holy knight.

“yes.”

“It’s true now…”

The words the paladin delivered were shocking.

“It is nonsense.”

Epinia denied it. It wasn’t a very believable story.

‘What the hell is this?’

As I was worried, he said that the Holy Empire entered the dungeon first.

However, it was said that there was a problem.

‘That means they’re isolated now.’

The advance team with outstanding skills set off first.

And as the second team was about to depart, they began pouring out an unmanageable amount of skeletons.

As a result of a rough check, the dungeon was a large-scale dungeon.

That’s why it was said that it was necessary to supply the advance party, but it was not possible.

‘It’s ridiculous.’

How many skeletons are there?

I followed the paladin to the entrance of the dungeon and Ephinia and the others moved.

The entrance to the dungeon was a mess.

‘That’s a lot…’

Skeletons continued to pour from the entrance. Their number was estimated at several hundred.

Dozens of paladins and priests were blocking it, but somehow it seemed difficult to break through.

“I’ve asked for help from the Holy Empire, but… it seems like it will take quite a while for support to arrive. Until then, whether the advance party will be safe…”

But there is one good thing. there is me

“Then, I will break through to the lead.”

After hearing my words, the paladin looked at me next to me.

The paladin asked Epinia.

“Who is this man over there?”

The paladin’s question was answered by Amice.

“This is Cassias. He is a black mercenary and ranks fifth in the Imperial Colosseum.”
