The Absolute Martial Deity of the Fallen Family - The Absolute Martial Deity of the Fallen Family chapter 36

Chapter 36. Why are you here?

“Shurade too?”

Upon hearing the news, Kayen Agtas felt dizzy.

“A disciple of Kalstein… truly disappointing!”

If it was from Sirius, it would make sense.

But according to the stories from those who had escaped, they were attacked by a mere junior from Kalstein Sword Trial.

It was truly a pathetic tale.

“Father, this is quite a dangerous situation.”

Parie, who was standing beside him, expressed concern.

“Yes, that’s the problem!”

Of course, there is no physical evidence.

Just like the lack of physical evidence in the mysterious documents spread by the Entrovil Six Council.

However, Shurade is quite aware of the internal situation of the Agtas family.

If such a guy becomes a witness, it will be quite a headache.

“If the Entroville Council of Six spreads the second volume of the forbidden document…!”

“Father.”

Facing the excited Kayen, Parriel spoke again.

“What if… we attack Entroville right now?”

“Entroville?”

“If Shurade has been captured as a prisoner, there is a high possibility that he is still in Entroville. Before Sirius’s group makes a move, we can seize Entroville, eliminate Shurade, and wouldn’t that suffice?”

Kayen was lost in thought at his son’s suggestion.

“That way, we can also prevent the Council of Six from spreading the forbidden document at its source.”

“We’re not directly confronting the Regel family, just organizing the black guilds in Entroville. There’s no need to worry about others watching.”

“Yeah, since Sirius has already swept through the black guilds in the northeast… it shouldn’t be a problem if we deal with them.”

“However, we need preliminary investigations. If Sirius is in Entroville as well…”

While discussing this, a knock was heard.

“Lord Parriel, a letter has arrived from the Albrime family.”

“A letter? From the Albrime family?”

The Albrime family in the northeast had decided to remain neutral this time.

But why would they send a letter?

“It’s from Belid.”

“Belid, the second son of Albrime?”

Parriel had met Belid not long ago.

At that time, Belid was with Sirius.

“Bring it here quickly.”

“Yes.”

A retainer who opened the door came in and handed over the letter.

Parriel checked the contents of the letter and widened his eyes.

“This is…”

“Why so surprised?”

“These days, it seems Sirius is pressuring the Albrime family while staying there.”

Parriel handed the letter to his father.

“It seems like he’s trying to enlist the Albrime family’s support for our fight.”

“The Albrime family has decided to maintain neutrality, though?”

“That’s why it’s difficult. Trying to stay neutral, but Sirius keeps pressuring them.”

Parriel’s voice was filled with excitement.

“Father, this is an opportunity.”

“Parriel, even in such a situation, I doubt Clind Albrime will take our side…”

“No, that’s not what I mean.”

Parriel shook his head.

“If Sirius is staying with the Albrime family, then Entroville is practically empty.”

“…!”

Kaien belatedly understood his son’s words.

“Yes, there is a considerable distance from Albrime to Entroville…!”

“Even if Sirius comes late, it won’t matter. With our full strength, we can easily occupy Entroville.”

After observing Sirius’s response, a decision could be made.

For now, what’s more important is finding a vulnerability in Sirius.

“Father, I will go myself.”

“Are you serious?”

“Wouldn’t that make you trust me, Father?”

Kaien smiled at his son’s confident declaration.

“Yes, you are different from the Black Society members like the Entroville Six or Shureid.”

With that said, Kaien patted Pariel on the shoulder.

In Kaien’s eyes, there was a trust filled with pride towards his capable son.

“You are a skilled mage who has learned magic at the academy.”

6th Circle.

That was the level Pariel had reached.

If Sirius is still staying put… then dealing with the Black Society members causing trouble in Entroville should be easily manageable.

“Bring the elite soldiers. Occupy Entroville and establish a foothold for northeast expansion.”

“Leave it to me, Father.”

The Agtas family began to move in earnest.

* * *

The elite unit led by Pariel headed towards Entroville.

They ran across the fields without rest, aiming to occupy it swiftly.

“Pariel, Entroville seems to be as usual.”

Late at night, the scouts returned and reported to Pariel.

“The city is quiet. People are just moving cargo at the docks.”

“They are moving cargo at this hour?”

“Lately, a lot of goods have been coming in from the northeast.”

“….”

“Regel family has been revitalizing the industry in the northeast, so….”

Listening to the scout’s report, Pariel frowned.

“If they are workers at the docks, they must be subordinates of the Entroville Six.”

“Yes, they should be Rodius’s subordinates.”

“In that case, we must eliminate them all.”

“…!”

Everyone held their breath at Pariel’s ruthless statement.

“Pariel, if we do that, the water transport function of Entroville will be paralyzed. It will not only affect the northeast but also other regions….”

“What does that matter.”

Pariel snorted.

“At the moment, wiping out the Black Society members in Entroville is more important.”

“….”

No one said a word in response to Pariel’s statement.

“There’s no need to delay. Let’s attack right away.”

“Understood.”

Leading his subordinates, they entered the streets of Entrobil.

It was already late. People, awakened by the armed group roaming around, peeked out of their windows and held their breath.

Seeing the fear in people’s eyes, Pariel became even more confident.

Soon, the entire eastern region would kneel in fear before the Agtas family and Pariel.

“You take care of the dockworkers. I’ll handle the likes of Rodius and other officers.”

“Yes!”

He sent his subordinates forward.

Pariel followed confidently behind.

As his men approached the docks, drawing their swords, they were the elite troops rigorously trained by the Agtas family.

The usual dockworkers would not stand a chance.

Expecting screams to echo from the docks, Pariel advanced leisurely.

“Ah!”

“Ugh…!”

And as Pariel expected, screams echoed through the air.

Pariel smiled, but the urgent cries that followed were not what he had anticipated.

“P-Prince Pariel… cough!”

It was his own men screaming.

Startled, Pariel looked up.

Had the elite troops of the Agtas family really fallen victim to the dockworkers?

“What’s happening…?”

It was too dark to see clearly.

In the end, Pariel resorted to magic.

Creating a ball of light, he illuminated the docks to finally see what was going on.

“…!”

Cargo ships gathered at the docks.

Inspectors were pouring out and swiftly stabbing the elite troops of the Agtas family.

Thud, thud, the wounded soldiers fell into the river one after another.

What on earth was happening?

Who were they? What kind of people lurked there, wielding their blades?

“P-Prince Pariel!”

One of his aides raised his voice.

“These… are the Heavenly Swordsmen!”

…!

The Heavenly Swordsmen.

An organization rooted in the Kalstein Swordsmen of the northeast.

Sirius killed Karlstein and took over his organization. He even absorbed the remnants of the Black Society around him.

Why are they pouring out from there and massacring the elite soldiers of the Agtas Family?

“Their skills are not to be underestimated! These guys… Agh!”

Screams were heard, followed by the sound of splashing into water.

Another elite soldier of the Agtas Family died.

“Ugh…!”

Parriel belatedly regained his senses.

He didn’t know what had happened, but it seemed like they had been lying in wait here.

In that case, Parriel had to step up.

Even if their skills were better than expected, they were nothing more than men who could swing a sword.

Parriel could just sweep them away with magic.

“With my flame magic…!”

Parriel intended to burn down the boat where they were hiding.

His subordinates would suffer, but in the current situation, it had to be endured.

Thinking this way, as Parriel raised his right hand to cast a spell.

“…!”

On a nearby rooftop.

He realized that two young men were looking down at him.

They were the faces he had seen recently in the Albraim Family.

“Sirius and Velid…!”

What could this mean?

Why was Sirius, who was staying with the Albraim Family, here?

And why was Velid, who had sent a letter, here as well?

What exactly was happening right now… Parriel realized belatedly.

“You guys…!”

This is a trap.

Velid sent false information to lure the Agtas Family. Of course, Sirius was behind it.

And precisely when the forces of the Agtas Family arrived, they had the Celestial Sword Unit ambush in Entroville.

All of this was a conspiracy to ensnare the Agtas Family.

“Ah…!”

He raised his right hand, forgetting even to attack the Celestial Sword Unit’s inspectors.

To kill Sirius and Velid, who were leisurely watching from the nearby rooftop, he unleashed his flame magic.

Thud!

A huge fireball pierced the night sky.

Velid looked startled. But Sirius remained expressionless.

“…!”

Sirius suddenly leaped off the rooftop.

And as a backdrop of the night sky, when he swung his sword vigorously.

Crash!

As if igniting fireworks, the fireball shattered into pieces, painting the night sky.

Paris El’s sight was momentarily captivated by the fantastic sight.

“Ah…!”

And then, Sirius, streaking across the night sky, landed right in front of Paris El.

Feeling an instinctual sense of danger, Paris El urgently raised his voice.

“Sirius, wait…!”

But it was already too late.

A blade, slicing through the darkness, plunged into Paris El’s right shoulder, causing him to let out a desperate scream.
