Swordmaster of the Red Light District - Swordmaster of the Red Light District chapter 217

217

Time has passed.

After about a month, Luna succeeded in recovering her circle enough to use any magic without any burden.

Even if that was enough, Luna could fulfill the roles of several high-ranking wizards.

So Rey decided to enter the Signi Mountains with Luna around tonight.

Ray had given Count Phillips permission to explore the Signy Mountains in advance.

In fact, it was hard to see that entering the Signi Mountains and contacting the rangers was just a wise decision.

Stimulating a ranger who had been standing still was nothing but stinging the beehive.

Moreover, approaching close to the border of the Signy Mountains could itself be a cause for a ranger.

Nevertheless, Ray decided to contact the Ranger side.

No matter how good the Imperial Intelligence Agency was, it was difficult to grasp the internal affairs of the Rangers, who were located on the front lines and in remote areas.

Rather than sitting still and hoping for peace, I needed to take a little risk and see the situation with my own two eyes.

Rey thought even more so as he left for Aegis after a while and had to be away from the Count of Phillips for several months.

“Once I got permission from the higher ranks of the Empire…”

Rey also informed Ernst that he was planning to explore the Signy Mountains in advance.

A reply from Ernst stated that entry into the Signy Mountains was permitted, but not armed conflict, particularly the killing of rangers.

It was a natural request from the point of view of the Empire.

Reid also thought that if the situation got a little twisted, he would run away without swinging his sword.

In the end, it was the Earl of Phillips who was in trouble if the beehive was picked incorrectly.

Ray, who was walking down the street to organize his thoughts, stopped by Jack’s shop, who was a fruit vendor and now works in the retail business.

Jack came out of the store as Ray was chewing on the apple displayed in front of the store.

Rey checked Jack’s face and then slid an Imperial gold coin onto the shelf.

Jack grabbed the slipping gold coin and said with a smile on his face.

“Aren’t you just asking for free like before?”

“You have thick hair, so if you act like that, the kids will learn from you.”

Rey grinned as she muttered an apple.

“Once upon a time, I said I’d give you an orchard that stretches beyond the horizon… do you need it?”

Jack smirked after Ray.

“I am still living happily ever after.”

“Hey, retail business makes some money?

“Yeah. And orchards can’t be built around here, can they?”

The area where the Earl of Phillips is located has been unsuitable for a large orchard due to the climate.

Jack pointed out that part and patted his growing teeth.

“Where will I go when I am old enough to leave here?”

“That’s right.”

Ray giggled and looked around.

Just hanging out with Jack brings back memories of the past.

Ray, who said he had lived a very tight life that did not last long, waved to Jack.

“I’m a little busy today, so I’ll stop. Ummm… Thank you, in the meantime.”

It was a strange greeting.

Jack nodded and accepted.

“Yeah. It was an honor for me too, kid. I’ll stop by occasionally when I have time.”

Rumors circulated in the Earl of Phillips that Ray had awarded the titles of Jimmy and Matthew.

Jack took great pride in the fact that a talent like Ray was born in the Earl of Phillips.

Jack also felt proud to have been briefly involved in Ray’s early childhood journey.

Ray shouted at Jack who was proud.

“You’re not a kid anymore, are you?”

“You’re shorter than me.”

“…”

Jack was 185 cm tall.

Ray frowned.

The reason why we decided to enter the Signi Mountains at night was conscious of the Ranger’s tracking ability.

If they entered the Signi Mountains in broad daylight, it was clear that even the Imperial Special Forces would be immediately caught by the Rangers.

Of course, the Ranger had bright eyes at night, but it was still worse than the daytime.

As the sun went down, Rey stopped by her home to check her gear before entering the Signy Mountains.

But the lights were on in the house.

Ray wondered if the thief had heard of the thief for a moment, but then he inferred the identity of the other person with the sound of footsteps and opened the door of the house.

“Karen.”

“Uh, are you here? Wait!”

Karen’s voice came from inside the room.

Ray entered the house and looked around.

The shelf was very clean with no dust on it.

During the months Ray left the Earl of Phillips.

Rey’s house was cleaned by Bella from time to time.

And now that Rey has returned, Karen has come to help with cleaning and arranging.

Karen, who was cleaning the room, came out of the room and smiled at Rey.

“Ray, you’re going to the Signy Mountains today?”

“…from whom did you hear it?”

“Luna told me.”

“Oh, okay? Don’t tell anyone else.”

“Of course!”

Karen pretended to be a bit nauseous about what she thought of her so that she was making such a reasonable request.

Still, Karen came closer to Rey, waving her white skirt in the sky.

“Are you coming back soon?”

“Oh, it won’t take long. If there’s a problem, you should come back sooner.”

“After returning from the Signi Mountains… After a while, you said you have to go to Aegis?”

“If I go there, I think I will stay there for a few months.”

“…”

Karen looked at her for a moment and asked carefully.

“Do I… want to enter Aegis?”

“Um… I think it’s going to be difficult right now…”

Still, it was possible for Karen to have the skills to enter Aegis if she worked hard for one or two years, or even three years at the most.

But Karen wasn’t as overwhelmingly gifted as Johanna, nor was she the type of person with a distinctly improved and ambitious spirit like Darren.

Karen had a bubbly personality.

“…”

Is it really appropriate to say that Karen is easygoing?

As a child, Karen was not as docile as she is now.

Occasionally, he showed a very strong desire for monopoly and possessiveness compared to others.

And that feeling was always towards Rei.

“…”

Rei felt a bit uncomfortable and clasped her neck for a moment.

Anyway, Rey didn’t want Karen to go to Aegis.

“Unless there is something you must acquire in Aegis… Well, I don’t think you need to enter Aegis. There are many unlucky nobles there.”

It was difficult to overcome the recognition given by natural origins with any skill.

Even if Ernst is his strength, his secret contempt will act as a great stressor.

Without an overwhelming talent like Johana or a firm ambition like Darren, there’s no need to go down the hard road.

What’s more, Karen’s good looks were more likely to attract more attention than necessary.

If you want to use a beautiful appearance as a weapon, it can be a powerful weapon, but if you don’t want to do that, your interest in appearance will only come to you in a difficult way.

Karen nodded as Rey spoke up as she stuttered.

“Okay, then I’ll be here.”

Karen followed Rey into the room and sat down on Rey’s bed and smiled.

Rey was confused for a moment whether the ‘here’ Karen was referring to was the Earl of Phillips or the bed she was sitting on.

Karen continued stroking Rey’s bedspread.

“Here… to help people and teach children…”

Having such a valuable time in its own way… I will always be waiting for you here.

“Ray, Ray is so great that we can’t always be by our side… But will you definitely come back?”

Karen’s horsetail trembled slightly.

Rei, who had read the anxiety and sorrow that lurked in it, could not shake her head.

“…this is my hometown, of course I should come back.”

Ray finally bluffed again.

After receiving Ray’s confirmation, Karen smiled brightly with peace of mind.

Rey looked at Karen smiling brightly, felt uncomfortable and turned away.

As our gaze shifted, a slightly awkward atmosphere flowed.

Karen thought about it for a moment, and then slowly untied the front of her clothes.

Karen, who had exposed her breastbones nakedly, groaned and squealed while holding back her embarrassment.

“Today, Joe, it’s a little hot…”

The night air is still cold, but what makes it hot?

The moment Rey, who was forced to turn to Karen according to her instincts, was about to ask such a question.

Karen, who had gathered courage again, untied the string that tied her hair and said what she was trying to say.

“Ray, I like this place. So even if Ray goes away…”

Karen’s face was so hot.

Nevertheless, he faced Ray with a smile that was dazzlingly radiant, full of his feelings for Ray.

“I’ll be waiting for Rey here.”

Next moment.

Rey walked over to the bed without saying a word and met Karen’s lips.

*

Luna was waiting for Rey outside Rey’s house.

Shortly after, Rey with her luggage came out, and Luna asked quietly.

“…Is it over already?”

“…I think it’s a question that can be very misleading…”

It was a bit intense, but it was the way out with just a little bit of lips.

But when I asked if it was already over, I felt that way.

Rey slapped Luna not to say anything strange, and then touched the back of her nose.

My mind was always complicated.

What should I say…

I thought I was holding on to my reason, but when I stood in front of Karen, my instincts popped out and I was repeatedly beating and trampling my reason.

Rey urged Luna to cool the rising heat with the cool night air.

“Let’s stop.”

All preparations have been made.

He also packed his equipment, and the Viscount Gadi, Lopilen, and the Knights of the Earl of Phillips were armed without falling asleep just in case.

At Rey’s request, Luna materialized the high spirit, Kalgar.

The Signy Mountains were planned to be approached by flying.

The Ranger side also had air defense capabilities with magical barriers, but it was possible to eliminate the possibility of being traced back if approached by flying.

Soon after, Rey and Luna flew into the sky on a sword.

A strong wind blew and Luna’s hair fluttered to and fro.

Rey felt the wind for a moment, forgetting all her worries and feeling free.

Before long, a long stretch of mountain range spread out in front of Rei and Luna.

Rei and Luna first circled the mountain range and looked down at the ground.

Among the densely occupied trees, the figures of beasts and demonic beasts were reflected at a glance.

It was difficult to find a figure that had changed significantly from the past.

As he was about to tell him to slowly head into the mountain range, Ray caught a strange sight.

A shadow of something was moving fast in a place deep in the mountain range.

It could have been the shadow of a beast or a beast, but Rei didn’t think much of it.

If that was the shadow of a beast or a beast, as it moved quickly, something like a leaf would have swayed along with it.

However, the shadow Ray was looking at left no trace… It was moving like a shadow without substance.

Those who were able to move like that were usually rangers.

Rangers occasionally cross the border and patrol the Signy Mountains.

So it wasn’t unusual for the Rangers to be found inside the Empire’s borders, but even considering that, the Ranger was too close to the Count of Phillips.

“What… can I see your face?”

If it was within the borders of the Empire, Rei could also be more radical.

Rey asked Luna to lower the altitude with a humble heart.

after a while.

In front of the two men who were moving secretly and quickly through the mountain range, Rei thumped and fell.

“?!”

Suddenly, Ray fell to the ground and the two men were startled.

Rey, who landed safely, relaxed his knees and looked at his opponent.

“Well…?”

Ray frowned.

Ray speculated that they must be ‘Rangers’.

However, the outfits of the two men were quite different from those of the Rangers.

Then a man asked Rey, showing his wild momentum.

“Who are you?”

“Who are you? Are you a ranger?”

The two men turned to each other and drew their swords from their arms.

Rey could confirm that the swords that the two men wore were engraved with the emblem of the empire.

A man pointed a blood-stained sword and warned.

“We’re from the Empire. If you don’t want to see bad things, get out.”

“Hey, are you?”

“?”

Ray replied with a bright smile.

“I’m from the Empire too!”

Rei held out a sword from her arms.

The emperor himself bestowed it on Rei, and a treasured sword engraved with the imperial design that shines brilliantly even in the dark has been revealed.

“I was sent by His Majesty the Emperor. What unit are you from?”

Rei waved her hands at the two men who were chasing in embarrassment.

“Ah, I don’t even have to roll my head because I think I’ll understand if you don’t say it .”
