219

After the ranger who ran into Ray sent a signal to the rangers’ contact information.

A person who had a good relationship with Rey appeared along with the other rangers.

It was brandil.

Just as Brandil was about to ask a question to Suha to understand the situation, Rey swung his sword lightly.

bang!

A leaping sword that ripped through the air fell right in front of Brandil.

Frowning his brow, Brandil turned his gaze back to Ray.

“no way…?”

“Long time no see.”

“under…”

Brandil let out a sigh mixed with mixed emotions.

Rey inserted the sword as if he had no intention of fighting, and then asked Brandil.

“Are you still a company commander?”

Brandil shrugged.

It means he hasn’t been promoted in years, but to be honest, Rey was surprised that Brandil was still holding out with the Rangers.

Considering Brandil’s track record, it was not at all strange that he was purged immediately.

Ray first explained her situation.

“I found them while reconnaissance around this area. They were mimicking Imperial soldiers, but they weren’t. I thought they were spies sent by you guys… Wasn’t that too?”

“Well…”

From Brandil’s point of view, the situation was a bit daunting.

Brandil, scratching his head, opened his mouth again after contemplating.

“Can you hand them over to us first? They’ve been raiding our base and chasing them.”

“It’s not difficult. But it would be better to entrust it to a trusted subordinate.”

Brandil, who understood Rey’s words, beckoned to the rangers who were by his side.

Brandil approached Rey and asked while the rangers were taking the assailants who had been killed by Rey.

“Um… Would you like to accompany us for a while? If there is something to explain to each other as we go, let’s clear up any misunderstandings.

“Ahead.”

This could be a trap, but Rey didn’t care.

Seeing Ray’s confidence, Brandil smiled and walked down the mountain path.

Ray and Brandil exchanged information with each other as they walked down the mountain path.

It was also a kind of deal, and in the process, Rey was able to understand once again the chaos that had arisen within the Rubyha Kingdom.

‘If I keep going, will there be a civil war?’

In the past, when Rei intervened in the First Prince Situation.

The Taranis family of the Rubyha Kingdom were suspected of being related to demon worshipers.

At this time, the king of the Rubyha Kingdom protected the Taranis family, and the dissatisfaction with this increased.

Afterwards, the Taranis family almost seized an opportunity to increase their power by expanding their influence into the Empire, but were stopped by Rey.

Through such a process, now, the royal faction, led by the Taranis family, and the anti-kingdom faction, were in sharp conflict within the Rubyha Kingdom.

One of the leaders of the anti-monarchy was Count Horum, a marginalist with a territory located close to the Signi Mountains.

‘There was a reason Brandil was able to hold on.’

Count Horum had a fairly strong influence on the Ranger troops.

Rey speculated that Brandil might have been able to maintain his position thanks to the line he was riding on was the line of the Earl of Horum, and also because the conflicts within the kingdom had become more and more promiscuous.

“So… it means they’re swearing hard at each other saying they’re racist.”

In the pro-kingdom faction, the anti-kingdom faction is called a tycoon who sells the country to the empire.

In the anti-kingdom faction, the pro-government imperial faction is said to be a tycoon who quarreled with the devil worshipers.

The longer the confusion, the deeper the conflict.

Ray walked down the street and asked Brandil.

“Those who pretend to be imperial soldiers attacked the Ranger base?”

“okay.”

“Are those who were attacked pro-kingdom figures?”

“…there are a lot of people in that department. But whether it was a coincidence or intentional… I’ll have to find out from now on.”

“From my point of view, it seems that the royalists are trying to get rid of you, the line of Count Horum.”

Ray grinned.

Even looking back on the Earth in previous lives, historically powerful people and powers have often resorted to such remedies.

Even if the craftsmanship was so lax and caught along the way, there was no apology.

Whether right or wrong, once a cause was created, most of them were arrogantly arrogant and beaten with force.

Brandil did not respond to Ray’s murmur.

It was very inappropriate for Brandil to voice his opinion here.

Brandil asked Ray, confirming that he had little time left before he reached the frontier.

“Are you going to go in and see the manager’s face? Or will you just go back?”

“Does the manager know me?”

“Yeah. When I met you back in the day, I was the vice-captain.”

“Then let’s talk for a moment, okay?”

*

Inside the barracks prepared not far from the Ranger’s base of operations.

The commander of the 2nd Special Operations Squadron, so-called Ranger, frowned at Brandil.

Rey and Luna were standing next to Brandil.

Brandil said he had ‘invited’ Ray here.

Of course, Brandil had no right to bring imperial greetings into the kingdom’s borders at will.

Roberry once asked Ray.

“The raider and the Empire have nothing to do with each other?”

“Because they’re not ours.”

“Can you prove it?”

Ray shrugged.

How else can we prove that we are not ours?

Roberry was also knowingly asking.

While Robery sighed, Oaks, who was beside him, drew his sword and went mad.

“A damn imperial bastard crawls all the way here and tries to make fun of us?!”

Blood was oozing out over the bandage around Oaks’ waist, perhaps because his blood pressure had risen from being overly excited.

The sight of Oaks screaming with his eyes wide open seemed sincere to anyone who could see it.

“I’ll tear you apart and send you back to the Empire!!!”

“under…”

Ray finally realized that the situation in which ‘that line’ could be used was approaching.

Rey leaned back on the chair and crossed her legs.

“Don’t use too strong words.”

The corners of Rey’s mouth twisted naturally towards Oaks.

“Because you look weak.”

Luna looked at Rey with a strangely astringent expression.

It seems to have been said with an idiom like a weak dog barking loudly, but somehow it felt like my hands and feet were withered.

Of course, Oaks heard Ray’s provocation and became even more frenzied.

Oaks shouted one after another, hoping that the rangers who responded to Rey’s provocation would point their swords at Rey together.

Weren’t the Bond Rangers famous for their fighting spirit and strong self-esteem?

However, despite Rey’s provocation, the rangers did not move hastily.

Most of the senior rangers in this position were those who experienced the battle between Rey and the 1st Prince right in front of their eyes.

Ray wasn’t an easygoing opponent to the point of growling in front of him in an attempt to protect his pride.

Instead, Roberry kicked Oaks out of the tent.

The reason was that the injury was serious, so do not overdo it.

Oaks squeaked all the way to the end, vomiting out rage and dragged away.

“…”

In the tent where there was silence for a moment.

Roberry opened her mouth again.

“Once you arrest those you will interrogate.”

“You do it yourself. But I don’t know if it makes any sense.”

I wondered if I would vomit the truth, and I was skeptical if it would be worth it.

Roberry encouraged Ray to stand up from his seat.

“Let’s walk together for a while.”

*

“I’m not trusting you.”

Roberry kicked his tongue as he walked down the mountain path.

“Isn’t this the Empire’s deception and alienation?”

It was also a plausible guess.

Roberry was confused.

It was suspected that the figures of the pro-kingdom faction were the instigators of this attack.

However, it was foolish to believe the words of Rei, the imperial special task force.

Rey patted her chin.

Rey was also unable to confirm the identity of the spies he had handed over.

Rey used her powers to examine the rangers one by one, including the spies, but she could not confirm any direct traces of worshiping the devil from them.

‘If the demons had been hiding their appearance, they would have just cut them…’

Ray was a little sad, but in fact, it was natural.

Read at n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Not all problems in the world were caused by demon worshipers.

Even if the demon worshipers were the cause, in most cases the reason for the increase of the board was mostly due to human greed.

How can you easily identify incidents and accidents caused by mixed interests by drawing one or two straight lines?

It was natural to be confused.

However, at the time when Robery was telling Rey about her confusion.

Roberry also meant that he was guessing that this event was highly likely to be a masterpiece of the royal faction in the kingdom.

If Rey is right, Oaks or other pro-kingdom figures would have helped the raiders get into the base.

If Oaks was the real culprit, he would have been injured by allowing the attack to avoid suspicion.

Due to this incident, if the Royal faction tries to expel Robbery and put the pro-kingdom faction in the position of leader of the Ranger… The speculation will be certain.

However, he had no intention of giving up his seat as a Rober.

Roberry was not a docile sheep enough to stick his neck out for the purge.

After that reaction? How will things turn out?

While they were deeply concerned with each other.

Ray asked Robbery.

“How about actively borrowing the power of the Empire?”

“Are you persuading me to take a bow now?”

“Looking at the situation, it seems that your king is planning to end a civil war if you are not quietly expelled… You know that too, right?”

“…”

If this is really the King’s refurbishment.

The royal faction will try to defeat the anti-kingdom faction after making some justifications to sell the anti-kingdom faction as a pawn of the empire, like this case.

Of course, the power of the anti-kingdom faction was not formidable, so the possibility of it spreading into a civil war, small or large, was quite high.

“Whether you seek cooperation from the Empire or not, the Empire will not sit idle. The Empire is not interested in expansion, but the demon worshipers are currently venomous. We also have evidence that they had an affair with…”

“…”

“If we hold hands, we will help each other. The Empire will avoid excessive strife, and you will be able to take power with the help of the Empire.”

“The government will be seized by the Empire.”

“Has the empire ever tried to expand its territory for hundreds of years?”

“…”

“If you kill only the demon worshipers attached to the Imperial faction, the Empire will not care much about you. Even if the factions that were anti-monarchists split up and start a civil war again, well.”

Ray continued to roll her head as she said that.

Wars in this world had some similarities to modern warfare on Earth.

Long-distance travel through warp gates.

High-class soldiers that are close to asymmetrical weapons.

speed warfare as a result.

Like the US war in Iraq, for example.

If the Empire wanted to, it could take advantage of the superiority of high-class soldiers to strike the kingdom’s command and seize victory in a short time.

That was enough only a few dozen days after the war started.

Of course, the maintenance and stability of the occupied area after the war was never possible with a small number of high-class soldiers, but it was left to the anti-kingdom faction.

It was necessary to deploy support units to the front line in order to operate advanced types of soldiers, but if the objective was to strike the command line and erase specific forces, preparation for war did not take much time.

‘As long as the powers of the royal family and the demon worshipers of the Rubyha Kingdom are fierce, one day the Empire will wage war…’

Rey hoped the war would be over while he was still alive.

This is because, if a war broke out with the Rubyha Kingdom, the Count of Phillips was also in danger.

‘At least, if a war breaks out while I’m alive, I will definitely consider and deal with the safety of the people of the Earl of Phillips…’

Rey had no doubt that the outcome of the war itself would end in an overwhelming victory for the Empire.

Of course, the demon worshipers will do various tricks.

Because they have a certain kind of confidence in themselves, it must be that they are constantly stimulating the empire.

But the opponent is the Empire. Even in a place other than the Magic Kingdom, if the demon worshipers had been caught up in their defeat and defeated, the empire would have collapsed and mankind would have been destroyed.

The outcome had already been decided, and all that remained was when the war would end.

At that moment, Roberry, who had been silent, suddenly opened her mouth.

“The Spirit Sword has been recovered.”

“Sword of the Spirit ?”
