◈ Genius Shin-Gung who became a one-man army (101)

A night sky filled with twinkling stars like the Milky Way.

The sky was filled with such beauty that it felt like you would fall into a sea of ​​stars just by looking at it, but the expression on the man’s face as he looked up at the sky was dark.

Gael Pitt.

Although there were slight wrinkles around his eyes, he had a youthful appearance that made it hard to believe he was over 70 years old.

And a star twinkled in his eye.

“Is the wind of blood about to blow…?”

I’m not an expert on astrology, but I’ve been living for quite some time and I’ve come to understand it little by little.

A star that twinkles red, and next to it a golden star that is losing its light.

Obviously, what that represents is the two princes who are currently in conflict.

It was obvious enough that I didn’t have to think too much about which star was which.

Because of this, it was easy to predict how this fight would go.

“Hmm…….”

But recently, ‘that thing’ that suddenly appeared and started to irritate Gaiel’s nerves.

The green star that suddenly appeared on the day I visited the capital.

I was secretly concerned about the green star that was shining even brighter next to the golden star that was losing its light.

‘What other person are you talking about…?’

What on earth does that phenomenon represent? And that is… … .

“Time will tell.”

Duke Gaiel just muttered softly and looked at the pouring stars.

* * *

dump.

One of the men who finished his training collapsed on the floor. Then, the others followed suit, shaking their heads as they collapsed one after another.

“Isaac… the captain was right.”

“Are you saying that you receive this kind of training every day?”

Those who joined Arrowhead from Silver Knight were amazed by the intense training.

It’s not like the training intensity of Silver Knight is as different as heaven and earth, but the more systematic and extreme training is quite impressive.

One of the most difficult of these is the ‘interval’ training, which involves alternating between slow running and full-out sprinting while wearing a mask.

But the crazy thing is, I couldn’t tell when I would start running at full speed and how long I would maintain that speed, so it was driving me crazy.

Is it a feeling of a battle of wits along with physical strength?

It was a training where physical distribution itself was impossible, and with the mask on, I felt like I would run out of breath even after doing just a little bit.

“Hey, is that all? We’re on standby right now, so we’re only doing half of the training we normally do?”

Then someone came and spoke to them.

It was Gerard of the Archer Squad.

Gerard looked at the guys sitting there and said with a smirk.

“And in the Arrowhead Unit, it’s important to be respectful to your seniors. Even though you are nobles of a prestigious family, once you come here, you are all equal unit members and are simply divided into seniors and juniors…… Aaaah-!”

Gabe approached Gerard as he was giving a long speech and grabbed his ear.

“Stop talking nonsense, Gerard.”

Then he looked at them sitting there and smiled.

“Just pretend you didn’t hear what I just said. Then, rest comfortably.”

“Ahh! B, Squad Leader! My ears are falling off!”

“You follow me.”

As Gabe dragged Gerard away, those who remained looked at each other with dumbfounded expressions.

“What just came and went?”

“You spoke so fast that I couldn’t understand what you were saying.”

“But… those guys received the same training as us, but they don’t look tired at all.”

“This is half of what it usually is…….”

This is why I followed Isaac, but when I actually experienced it, it gave me goosebumps.

While everyone was resting, Janiel stood up from his seat.

“If it was just this hard and I was going to groan, I wouldn’t have come here. I need to continue my personal training.”

“me too.”

“Well, this is still just gum. Didn’t they do this much in Silver Knight too?”

Theron and Elina also stood up and said.

He gave up wealth and fame and headed to Arrowhead just to become stronger.

Isn’t it too embarrassing to say that this level of training is difficult?

Soon, they all followed Janiel and joined his personal training.

And Barus, who was watching that, smiled faintly.

“Those elites are working so hard, so we can’t just sit back and watch, right?”

“That’s a given!”

“Ow-!”

As Kyle shouted loudly, Arthur, who was next to him, shouted, his chest pounding.

Then, Brant approached and asked.

“But where did Lian and Isaac go? I haven’t seen them for days.”

“He said he had some business to attend to and was out of the office. What business did he have?”

“No, that’s not it, but I just couldn’t see it so I asked.”

Brandt shook his head at Varus’ answer.

It feels empty without the people I used to see every day. And it wasn’t long before the two of them returned from their special mission.

Varus smiled slightly at Brandt’s words.

“He’ll be back soon. He has a lot of work to do.”

No, maybe I’m still busy doing things that need to be done.

* * *

Thud thud.

Although it was a pretty high mountain, it wasn’t difficult.

Rather, I felt as if the clear air was filling my lungs and giving me strength.

‘I feel full of magic.’

The Child Magic Technique that Lian is learning uses magic power by continuously drawing external magic power inward and circulating it.

That is why, in a place where the concentration of magical power is so thick and full, the results of training are bound to be much better.

Just by breathing, Lian felt the passage of magical power in her body widen, and she climbed the mountain with a smile, wiping away the sweat that was flowing down her body.

And how much did it rise?

By the time the village below was visible as small as a fingernail, Lian had reached her destination.

“……It’s been a while.”

It is a place similar to an annex where Duke Gaiel Pitt often stays.

It is famous for being the place where Gaiel, who raised Isaac, the youngest genius of the past, taught him, and for that reason, I had only been there once.

It was something I had visited only once in my past life out of curiosity and wonder.

‘I never thought that experience would help me this much.’

Thanks to that, Lian knows where Gaiel is, which others don’t know about.

Lian looked at the cabin ahead.

The door was open and there was no sound.

I knew you’d be spending quite a bit of time here, but… … .

‘Seo, is it really not there?’

I came here confident that you would be here.

Lian walked towards the cabin with a slightly embarrassed expression.

Without Gaiel, the whole point of coming here would be lost. And then,

“That’s the young man I met back then.”

“……!”

Lian stopped and turned her head at the voice coming from behind her.

On his back he was carrying a strange, pointed wooden object, and there was a pile of wood there.

“Arrowhead’s deputy commander, you said Lian?”

“Go, meet Duke Gaiel Pit!”

Lian said, placing his right fist on his left chest.

Gaiel smirked at him and said.

“I am no longer in the military, so I have no need to salute. But why did you come all the way up this high mountain?”

“……I came to see the Duke.”

Lian swallowed hard.

‘I didn’t feel it at all… … .’

Since learning the magic technique, Lian’s body’s senses have become extremely sensitive.

But I didn’t feel it at all until it got this close.

At Lian’s words, Gaiel asked with a look of surprise on his face.

“This old man? Haha, how interesting.”

And soon his eyes calmed down.

thud.

At that moment, Lian felt as if a large boulder had been placed on her shoulders.

Gaiel asked Lian.

“How did you know I was here?”

“……I apologize if I offended you. However, I had something to tell you, Your Highness.”

“Hmm, so you’re saying you don’t want to reveal how you found out where I am…….”

Gaiel, with a smile on his face again, put down what he was carrying on his back and started walking towards the cabin.

“You must have had a hard time coming here. Why don’t you have something to eat before you go?”

And as soon as he went inside, he began to prepare a simple meal.

“……What kind of food is this?”

As she entered the cabin, Lian blinked at the food Gaiel had prepared for her.

It was a dish made with things that grew on the mountain, like grass, because it was something I had never seen before.

At that, Gaiel burst out laughing.

“It’s a side dish called wild vegetables. It might be unfamiliar to you. Try it. It’s healthy and very delicious. And this is rice made from rice grown in the kingdom.”

The rice had a slightly yellowish sheen. The green vegetables that went with it were quite different from the food Lian had eaten before.

But, it is impossible to refuse food recommended by Duke Gaiel.

Lian took a quick look at how he was eating and then started eating.

Crunchy!

“……!”

As soon as I take my first sip, I feel a strange harmony between the richness and lightness that I have never felt before, and the bitterness that passes by at the end.

Plus, when you feel a little salty, taking a bite of rice will give you just the right balance.

Gaiel said, smiling happily at Lian’s expression.

“Do you know about the Orient?”

“……Are you talking about a place far away across the ocean? Is this food by any chance oriental?”

Gaiel nodded at Lian’s question.

“I learned it from an old friend from the East called Hanmu. As I ate it, I found myself liking these foods more, haha.”

“Hanmu…… The food is truly unique and delicious.”

“Eat lots.”

So, Lian had a meal with Gaiel.

There wasn’t much conversation during the meal, but I could tell why he was usually in a place like this.

“Is the reason you came to me now because of the current fight between the princes?”

And when the meal was over, Gaiel asked Lian.

Lian nodded.

“you’re right.”

“Since you came to see me, you must be on Prince Ethan’s side.”

“……Yes. I came here because I wanted to ask you a favor.”

“I refuse.”

Gaiel cut Lian off before he could even hear her words.

He is completely neutral.

I had no intention of interfering with the fight between the two princes and upsetting the balance.

And Lian also anticipated his answer.

There is no reason for Gaiel to interfere in the conflict between princes that is a legitimate struggle of power.

“But if it’s an unfair fight, shouldn’t it at least be fair?”

“What does that mean?”

The fight now is Byron versus Ethan.

And the royal forces that follow the current king are maintaining complete neutrality and waiting for the fight between the two princes to end.

If even one of the royal powers were to interfere in the fight between the princes, it would no longer be a fight between the princes for the throne, but a great war that would divide the country in half and lead to destruction.

And just as the royal power cannot interfere with the princes’ succession to the throne, the princes must not interfere with the royal power in relation to the succession to the throne.

Because that is the rule of the Artian Kingdom that has been passed down for a long time.

Lian said to Gaiel.

“Prince Byron has kidnapped Count Vansern’s family.”

“……!”

Count Bansern is a loyalist to the royal family and rules over the Tadial territory.

You kidnapped Count Vansern’s family, who were on the neutral side of the royal family?

“I don’t want to upset the balance. But if it’s broken, shouldn’t we at least correct it?”

“……There must be no lies in what you say. If you are just playing with your tongue, then even if Prince Ethan wins in the future, a terrible situation may arise.”

Lian felt her skin tingle as the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Just looking into his eyes made my blood run cold.

Lian said, placing the note he was holding on the table and pushing it towards Gaiel.

“If it’s a lie, I’ll hang myself.”
