Swordmaster of the Red Light District - Swordmaster of the Red Light District chapter 218

conspiracy (2)

218

Ray was worried as he looked at the two men he met in the middle of the mountain range.

It could be that the other person’s status was really something like an agent belonging to the Imperial Intelligence Corps.

However, if the Empire had been conducting espionage operations near the Count of Phillips, the Emperor Ernst or the Emperor would have given him a word, Rey thought.

Of course, there was also a possibility that Ernst and the Emperor didn’t pay attention to that point.

Is there one or two operations carried out by the Imperial Intelligence Agency and the intelligence service?

However, for now, Rey assumed that the opponent was not a combatant belonging to the Empire.

‘Then… the fact that I was wandering around here disguised as an Imperial soldier…’

The two men could have been some sort of spies sent to the Empire by the Rubyha Kingdom.

‘After disguised as from the Empire, I was unlucky when crossing the Signy Mountains… and if not…’

Rey looked at the man’s sword.

On the man’s sword, there were still bloodstains that had not yet completely hardened.

Is that really animal blood?

The Signi Mountains were infested with dangerous beasts and demons.

However, in the case of the Rangers, they possessed a number of skills that could easily deceive and elude even the most sensitive beasts.

If that’s human blood, who did you cut down to get here?

‘Matadore… An insider’s play… Is it that way? Or do you have other intentions? After killing someone, they may have tried to confuse the investigation by disguising as if the Empire did…’

There were many things that came to mind, but there was still not enough information to make a definitive conclusion about something.

Recognizing the opponent as a ‘spy’, Rey put the treasured sword in his arms and drew an ordinary iron sword.

“Come on, stop rolling your head and run fast.”

Ray showed his momentum.

After defeating the opponent, Ray was planning to dig up information or think more about it.

The two spies rolled their heads to plausibly explain which unit they belonged to and for what purpose they were here, and eventually drew their swords.

Three swords gleamed in the dark forest.

The two agents distanced themselves from each other, and simultaneously charged towards Rey.

Kaga!!

The three swords collided.

Rey intentionally created a weak sword and then pushed it back moderately.

The spies faced Rey a few more times, then realized it was worth it and pushed Rey confidently.

Rei took a step backwards one after another because of the frantic sword attacks from both sides.

Kagang!! Kaga!!

Rey concentrated on catching the attacks of the spies and grasping the opponent’s swordsmanship.

Among the Imperial swordsmanship, there were several famous ones outside the Empire, and the sharp and straight swordsmanship of the opponent seemed to be one of them.

‘…but it seems a bit clumsy.’

Ray muttered to himself.

He could not erase the feeling that the level of perfection of the swordsmanship used by the spies was quite low for a person with the ability to stably extract even the sword.

While Ray was contemplating on that part, his concentration was distracted for a moment.

The spy who caught Rey’s back raised the corner of his mouth in the dark and swung his sword.

‘I got it…!’

The spy was confident he could cut Rey’s shoulder with this blow.

In fact, the spy’s sword touched Rey’s shoulder.

However, the sharp sword was unable to cut off the cloak that covered Rey’s shoulders at once and slipped sideways.

Shut up!

“?!”

The spy did not know that Rey’s cloak was a top-level artifact made of dragon skin.

No matter how dark a sword was, there was no way it could pierce through the highest-level artifacts that were hard to find in the Empire at once.

The bewildered spy later retrieved the sword and tried to swing it again, but Rei drew the second sword faster than that.

Rey, who turned around and spread his cloak wide, raised his second sword diagonally and cut it.

🥳-!

Blood splattered on the spy’s shoulder with the sound of the sword breaking through the wind.

The spy, who was late to evade due to limited visibility due to the cloak, hurriedly rolled over the ground.

Rey accelerated toward the spy coming in from the front, leaving the spy rolling on the ground.

Kaga Gaga!!

When Rey began to use two swords at the same time in earnest, the spy lost momentum in an instant and took a step backwards one after another.

As the pressure that seemed to fly away at any moment raged, even the spy couldn’t help but insist on unfamiliar swordsmanship.

The moment Rey narrowed the distance one more step and crossed and swung the sword, the spy’s swordsmanship form changed.

Ray grinned.

‘Well then.’

Kagak!!

The spy’s swordsmanship, which was only straight and sharp, drew a smooth curve and flowed into the vital point.

The spy thought he would be able to overwhelm Rey again as long as he showed his true skills.

However, Ray had no intention of playing with the spies any more.

Kwagak!!!

Rey strengthened his sword and mercilessly pressed down on the spy’s sword as if he was about to crush it.

The moment the spy gasped in embarrassment, Rey swung his leg and kicked the spy in the temple.

The spy flew to the side with a creaking sound, breaking the tree and tossing around.

At that moment, the spy, who had cut off his shoulder, once again attacked Rey’s rear, but it was reckless.

Luna, who was still in the sky, activated the circle.

Whoops!!

The mana around him fluctuated, and piles of dirt soared here and there.

The heaps of dirt that had been tangled together, curled up the spies and threw them on the ground.

Koo!!

“ね…!”

The spy, whose body was tied to the ground, forcibly pulled up the mana in his body.

He was going to release the mana to release the restraint, but before he could even try, a huge amount of mana pressure was put on his body.

The spy who had resisted immediately passed out and coughed up blood.

Rey lightly waved her hand toward Luna as she landed on the ground.

“Thank you, Luna.”

Now, what should I do?

After thinking about it for a while, Ray decided to wait here for the first time, wondering if a customer would come.

And soon after, the guests started to come just as Rey wished.

Rei felt a very faint sign and looked over the dense forest.

The Ranger, who noticed Rey’s gaze, appeared and asked.

“who are you?”

“Imperial Task Force.”

Ray answered bluntly.

*

The Ranger’s forehead frowned at the sound of the Imperial Special Forces.

Ray stared at the revealed Ranger and then tapped the man who stunned him with his foot.

“Ah, I’m a member of the Imperial Special Forces, and I don’t know them. I was just pretending to be an Imperial soldier, so I just took it down because I thought he was a spy. Are you friends?”

“…”

The Ranger looked at the situation once more.

The target the rangers were tracking had already been subdued, and a pair of men and women were introducing themselves as the Imperial Task Force.

The Ranger couldn’t tell what the truth was.

The other party’s statement could be true, or it could be another act of deception.

However, the Ranger was clearly aware of what he had to do now.

“…the truth of what you say, you’ll just have to take the time to sort it out.”

I’m going to subdue it and take him away… It was a remark with such a meaning.

The nearby rangers who were hiding their appearance also began to move slowly.

Rei was contemplating how to deal with it, and then pulled out the sword again.

“Just two things, please.”

Rey showed off his sword, then turned the sword in his hand one round.

“This is the Imperial Territory.”

The sword spirit that stood on Rey’s sword vanished.

“I’m not going to ask you why you came all the way here, so be polite and respectful. Before you cut off your limbs.”

As the sword disappeared, the rangers put their tension down for a while, but at that moment, the air was torn.

Kwagang!!

A black flag fell in front of the Ranger, who revealed his face first.

The Ranger stiffened as he watched his feet dig deep.

‘Space Sword…?’

The Ranger, who remembered the incident a long time ago, looked at Rey again with a pale face.

At that time, Ray was much smaller than it is now.

However, as for the size… there were plenty of ways to make them mistaken.

Rangers also possessed clever camouflage techniques that were difficult to recognize without taking them off in front of their eyes.

It was difficult to assert that they were not necessarily the same person just because they were different in size.

So the Ranger looked into Rey’s eyes.

In Rey’s eyes that fluttered with eerie light, the Ranger looked at the past.

“You… then…”

“Ah, I have a friend who just knows me.”

Rey slowly approached the Ranger.

The Ranger, realizing that it would be destruction if it collided like this, swallowed his saliva.

Ray raised the corners of her mouth towards the nervous ranger and asked.

“This is my second request, would you like to call a higher-level person who seems to be able to communicate? You can call in more friends and try again.”

This was inside the Imperial Territory.

Therefore, Ray had no intention of taking a low-key stance.

The ranger, who was expressing displeasure, eventually backed down and instructed Suha to do something.

Soon, one of the hidden rangers took something long from his arms and blew it through his mouth.

There was no sound in Ray’s ears.

It was a contact point for rangers who used frequencies outside the range commonly referred to as audible frequencies.

It wasn’t long before Rey was able to meet a fairly familiar face.

2nd Special Operations Squadron. Nicknamed Ranger.

After the death of the then-leader in an incident a few years ago, Robery, who has maintained the position of leader of the Ranger to this day, groaned in the conference room.

To the right of Roverie, Viscount Oaks, who served as the head of the munitions unit, was voicing his anger.

“How on earth are you going to take responsibility for this?!”

Oaks had a large cut on his back and was wrapped in bandages.

This was because an intruder entered the Rangers’ base and attacked several key figures, one of which was Oaks.

He suffered injuries that would have killed him instantly if only a few centimeters had been cut in a different location, but Oaks was fortunate to survive.

Of course, not everyone was as lucky as Oaks.

Several people were killed in the raid, including an inspector sent by the royal family.

“How the hell did you do the security of the base…!!”

Most of the base defense and deployment was under the command and decision of the commander.

It was difficult for Roberry to avoid responsibility.

It was at a level that could even raise suspicions.

The base of the rangers located high in the mountain range was by no means an easy place to invade.

It was difficult for an attack like this to happen without the assumption that there was an internal helper.

As Roberry continued to ponder with a frown on her brow, a ranger entered the conference room.

“I caught that imperial bastard…!”

Oaks was startled, and Roby was ecstatic.

“Oh, that’s good.”

If it was an imperial man, he pointed to the attacker.

Because it was already specified that the raider would use the Imperial swordsmanship and weaponry.

The general consensus was that it would take much longer to track down the attacker, but the prediction was very pleasantly wrong.

“It seems that the 2nd platoon did a very good job.”

“Oh, that’s… that… there’s a problem.”

“What’s wrong?”

“The Imperial Special Forces captured the Imperial bastard and handed it over.”

“…what catches what?”

Rover asked .
