The Immortal Genius Spearman (123)
As he grew older, his golden hair lost its luster and there were gray hairs here and there.
However, with her well-maintained body and smooth skin, she still looked like she was in her 30s.
Heinel Fremund.
As the first Auror Master of the Baroque Kingdom, he was already well over fifty years old.
However, the guardian deity of the Baroque kingdom is still active thanks to constant training and management.
He looked at a piece of letter addressed to him.
“Instructor Leonhark.”
Heinel smiled at the delightful name he heard after a long time.
Isn’t he like a master who once taught you swordsmanship?
Despite having awakened to Aura, Heinel did not neglect his swordsmanship.
No, rather, there was a time when I devoted myself more to swordsmanship because I thought I should stick to the basics.
It was at that time that I met Leonhark.
With his help, Heinel was able to attain a higher level of swordsmanship, and thanks to that, he is still called the guardian deity of the Baroque Kingdom.
however…….
“Damian of the Kaion Unit.”
Heinel looked embarrassed at Leonhark’s request to meet him.
Because the place is the place, meeting someone just by that alone becomes a topic of conversation, so I try to avoid it as much as possible.
But the butler in front of Heinel said at his expression.
“If it’s the Kaion Unit, isn’t it the independent unit that recently destroyed the Rose Knights?”
“Rose Knight Knights? Are you referring to the Imperial Rose Knight Knights?”
For a moment, Heinel’s eyes shook.
Recently, I have been busy cultivating the newly awakened realm of Aura, so I have been ignorant of the international situation.
The butler nodded at Heinel’s words.
“Yes, that’s right. The Rose Knights, led by the Imperial Auror Master, Fiarren Tail, were said to have killed half of the knights, along with their vice-captain, Milo.”
“Ugh… … !”
If it’s Milo, then Heinel has heard of it too.
Although he cannot handle aura, he is said to have excellent swordsmanship along with control of the magical power of ascension.
If he was to be the vice-captain under the famously eccentric Piaren, how great must his skills be?
“But the independent unit captured Milo of the Rose Knights? What is the size of the Kion unit?”
“It has now grown to 300 members, but I understand that it was a unit of 100 when fighting the Rose Knights.”
“… … .”
For a moment, Heinel felt speechless.
When you think about it all, both experientially and skill-wise.
Nothing could overwhelm the Rose Knights.
But how did you win against them?
“… … Hmm.”
At that moment, I became quite curious about Damien, the leader of the Kaion unit.
but…….
“Wouldn’t that be a problem?”
“If you make a problem out of it, it could become a problem.”
The butler answered Heinel’s question.
The butler whose hair had already turned white.
He was the one who served him at Heinel’s mansion since childhood.
Heinel let out a small sigh at his words.
“But, Heinel.”
“… … ?”
“I don’t think you need to worry too much about that part.”
Whether Heinel meets him or not.
Because no matter what you do, those who want to cause trouble will do so in some way.
“Then wouldn’t it be a good idea to check why the person who will shoulder the future of the kingdom wants to meet with you, Lord Heinel?”
“… … I see.”
Heinel smiled slightly at the butler’s words.
Heinel is already the Auror Master representing the kingdom. But he still acts so timidly.
“Then let’s take a look at the face of that promising young man who destroyed the Rose Knights.”
It’s been a long time since Heinel has done any external activities.
The butler also smiled happily at his appearance.
* * *
“Sergeant Damien. I got a reply from Heinel.”
“… … !”
Damian’s eyes wavered at Leonhark’s words.
Because it was something I had practically given up on.
Isn’t that so?
There was no reason for the Auror Master of the Kingdom to meet his new superior.
Then Leonhark smiled.
“He invited me to his house. I accepted.”
“then…….”
“Since you have time for the unit training in the future, why don’t you hurry up and go now?”
“… … Are you okay alone?”
The Kaion unit has significantly increased in number.
Besides, hasn’t training changed recently with the creation of two special forces?
It would have been quite difficult for Leonhark to take care of the unit alone.
But then.
“We are here too, why are you doing this?”
“Don’t worry and have a good trip, Commander.”
Diana and Kyle, half-dead, came closer and spoke.
Although he looked as if he might collapse at any moment due to the recent intensive training, his gaze seemed sharper than before.
furthermore.
“Don’t worry, thanks to Kiaren’s help, there won’t be any problems for a while.”
“Then… … Please. You always leave your seat.”
How long has it been since you came back?
At that, Leonhark shook his head.
“Aren’t you doing your best in your position? It’s okay. Hurry up and go.”
“All right.”
Damien, who had answered, immediately set off with the invitation he had received from Leonhark.
His location is written on the invitation.
I naturally thought it was the capital, but it was located quite far west of the capital.
Anyway, it seemed like it would take some time.
Damien thought of Heinel as he mounted his horse.
‘Then… … it might give you a good clue.’
Damien leaves the unit like that.
There was a hint of urgency in his expression as he spoke.
* * *
It was a forest where the sunlight poured down warmly between the tall trees and birds were chirping between the branches.
Slowly, slowly.
Damien entered the forest and looked around.
“In this forest… there is a mansion?”
Unlike most high-ranking nobles, Damian couldn’t hide his slightly bewildered expression in this strange place.
But soon, I felt a sense of calm settle in my heart due to the peacefulness I felt in the forest. And… … .
‘This concentration of magic power.’
Unlike other places, the concentration of magical power was quite thick, so Damian got off his horse and grabbed the reins.
Meeting Heinel was important, but right now I wanted to enjoy this feeling a little more.
Woohoo.
The magical power within my body rippled pleasantly.
Just breathing makes me feel like my magical powers are moving better.
Damien walked into the forest, breathing harder than usual.
How much did it cost?
Before I knew it, there were only trees growing here and there around me, and I was surrounded by green bushes as if they were embracing me.
Damn it.
“Welcome, I’ve been waiting for you.”
“… …Who are you?”
“My name is Philipp, and I serve Lord Heinel. Are you Lord Damian?”
“yes.”
A neat suit.
Even just standing there, there was no sign of any disorder.
Damian bowed his head to him, his voice polite and his smile friendly.
“This is Sergeant Damien of the Kaion Unit. Thank you for meeting me.”
“Follow me, Lord Heinel is waiting.”
Philip turned around and walked away.
Damian followed him without saying a word, looking at his back as he walked straight ahead.
And then we walked in for about 10 minutes?
Before we knew it, the trees around us had split to either side like an entrance, and a large, open space covered in pretty grass came into view.
And in the middle of it all is a house.
Although it was not large, it seemed to have been built with considerable care and was stylish, yet strangely seemed to blend in well with the forest.
“This is… … .”
“This is a villa-like mansion where Lady Heinel often stays. She stays here more often than at her family home.”
Philip answered with a faint smile and soon entered the mansion with Damien.
Squeak.
Noise that is not annoying.
As the door opened and we stepped inside, we saw a spacious living room and a hallway leading inside.
Damien enters the mansion with Philip.
Thud thud.
A man appeared at the back of the winding hallway and looked at Damien.
Golden hair.
The occasional white hair showed traces of the passage of time.
But despite his white hair, his appearance was such that he could now be said to be in his mid to late 30s.
“Are you Damian?”
Damien could tell at a glance what his question was.
‘The interest is… … .’
Heinel Fremund, Auror Master of the Baroque Kingdom.
Putting everything else aside, there is magic in the voice that is spoken so casually.
And above all, those eyes looking at me.
‘……be heavy.’
It was as if I remembered the last time I met him.
Kuk.
Damien clenched his fists without realizing it.
Heinel soon smiled faintly and said while looking at Billy.
“Please give me a cup of warm tea.”
“Preparing.”
Then Heinel spoke to Damien.
“It’s not much of a house, but let’s sit down. I’ve heard stories about you with interest.”
“… …Are you telling me your story?”
“I heard you won the battle against the Rose Knights. May I ask how you did it?”
“Oh, if that’s the case… … .”
Damien sat across from Heinel and explained the situation at the time.
Why should we attack them?
After that, why did they split their force in half and chase after them, and how fierce the battle with them was.
Damien continued talking without stopping.
In some ways, it was the most impressive battle of my life.
“At that time, about ten Rose Knight knights surrounded me.”
“Oh, so?”
Heinel also seemed interested, and listened to Damian’s words, occasionally adding interjections.
And when he heard that the soldiers had taken down the knights, he sighed.
“Are there a lot of casualties?”
“I lost almost… about ten of my men.”
“Whew… … That really is heartbreaking.”
If someone were to listen, they would say that while 50 Rose Knights were killed, only 10 people were killed.
But Heinel shared the grief of those ten fallen soldiers.
“After that, with the help of my unit members, I was able to win in the end. Of course, all of my unit members were badly injured… … but now they have all fully recovered and are able to easily endure the tough training.”
Heinel listened to Damien’s story with admiration like a boy.
When the story finally ended, Heinel nodded.
“That’s a relief.”
Then, after taking a sip of the tea placed in front of him, he looked at Damien and asked.
“You said you wanted to meet me through Instructor Leonhark.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Damien answered without hesitation.
Heinel asked him with a serious look in his eyes.
“Tell me, why did you want to meet me?”
“That is… … .”
At Heinel’s question, Damian swallowed hard and began to tell the reason why he came here.
