071. Kuo’s Hobby (1)
Cruel Hand. Despite being able to only incapacitate him, he carried out his killing blows in response to his warning from earlier. He continued to advance forward and swung his sword left and right, cutting the waists of four people, and then entered the center of the group of knights. No matter how great one’s strength is, it is common sense not to be surrounded when dealing with multiple people. His actions were an act that violated common sense, so it was inevitable to be questionable.
At that moment, Icarone lowered his stance with both arms spread out and spun around with his sword.
-Phew!
The scene that followed was like hell. Those who had crouched down had their heads cut off, and those who had stood up had their waists cut off. Those who had taken a defensive stance with their swords raised and those behind them survived, but were blown back by the force.
Less than a minute after the battle began, the knights began to tremble in fear. This was a different kind of ‘class’, something beyond imagination. They had never seen or heard of someone so agile and powerful.
Friel was also looking at the scene with a blank expression.
“Have you ever seen such a trick?”
“This is my first time too……”
“…….”
Even at that moment, the man in the black coat was slaughtering the knights. This was not a fight. It was just a one-sided hunt. The knights were desperate to escape. They even hid behind other nobles as shields, but the knights were relentlessly pursued and their lives were taken away. Those who could not escape and collapsed were also mercilessly beheaded. Friel did not realize that his two hands were shaking.
What Icarone needs now is overwhelming fear. A very primal and deep fear that can never be washed away, even after time passes and even if it is no longer in front of you. Fear is contagious. If it spreads to everyone here, it will grow to an unimaginable size and become uncontrollable.
The plan was perfect.
Those who received the commission, it was a well-planned play. The acting and the stage were perfectly prepared. All that was needed was for the tragic heroine to enter. What could that little, foolish girl do?
All she had to do was to decide to start a fight, make up an excuse, defeat the knights, and then rape that girl in the dark, spread the rumors to many nobles, brand her as a crazy prostitute, and submit a petition to prevent her from receiving a noble title. Her father was crazy, so it wouldn’t be strange for her to grow up in that kind of environment. That’s how it was supposed to go. The probability of failure was less than 1%.
But… … nothing, nothing worked.
“That… where on earth did it come from….”
What Friel’s eyes saw was a man in a black coat standing proudly in the middle of the banquet hall. A 15m radius around him was a sea of blood.
A terrible silence fell.
No one could breathe easily.
Even Requil, who came with me… … .
His appearance was blunt, brutal, and leisurely.
Rachel was lost in thought for a long time over this unrealistic sight.
‘I… … brought the messenger.’
“Ugh…….”
A faint groan of frustration escaped. In the silence of the room, the sound was as loud as thunder, but no one tried to find the cause. The reason they couldn’t even raise their heads or take a breath was because of the intense fear. The experience of the knight’s head rolling around just a moment ago was a shock to them, who were still young.
They saw the real ‘devil’ today.
“It seems there are many nobles who are dissatisfied with the Duke’s family.”
-Thump!
It seemed as if hundreds of hearts were sinking. Their expressions were filled with horror. There were not many nobles who had the same skills as their knight escorts. However, if he could easily eliminate all of the knight escorts, it would be a piece of cake to wipe out the rest of them.
As hundreds of nobles were struggling to breathe, keeping an eye on Icarone, a small, white hand grabbed his blood-stained collar.
It was Rachel.
Icarone looked at her for a moment, looking up at him with a solemn expression. Clear. After something like this, the enemy usually makes a similar expression regardless of whether it is an enemy or an enemy. Fear, or awe. But this woman’s eyes were filled with gratitude and solemnity.
A woman who can see what she has done and what she should do, rather than what she has seen and experienced visually. Wise people are rare. Courageous people are even rarer. She is a very outstanding person who possesses both wisdom and courage.
Rachel nodded faintly to Icarone and walked towards Friel, who had a blank expression on her face. She straightened her shoulders, straightened her back, and stood tall… … She looked more elegant, graceful, and beautiful than any of the nobles gathered here.
She opened her little mouth.
“I am grateful for your great love for this worthless girl. I will work hard to become a niece who will not be ashamed of you. Stay healthy, uncle.”
Friel writhed so much that it was noticeable from afar, but he did nothing.

It’s because fear is suppressing his anger. Who on earth is he? Who is he to wipe out 200 elite knights in the kingdom in just 20 minutes? Would it be possible if Jerone were alive? If it were during Brother Leon’s prime? No matter how much I think about it, the conclusion is ‘impossible.’
Friel remained silent until Rachel led her party out the front gate in triumph.
-Rumble.
“ha…….”
“Ugh, ugh…….”
As soon as the door closed, the sound of people losing their strength could be heard here and there. Some people were sitting there crying in unbearable fear they had never felt before, and there were quite a few people whose lower bodies were soaking wet.
However, Berello, who came to his senses first and thought that his skills were not in vain, quickly approached Friel.
“Count! We must strike the author now! If we mobilize all our private soldiers, he will be helpless.”
At Berello’s words, Friel continued speaking slowly, still keeping his gaze fixed on the door.
“No, investigate the author. From now on, follow him, no, watch him from a distance so that he won’t be caught, and investigate everything from his habits to how he lived as a child, and even the color of his underwear.”
“Excuse me, are you really talking about underwear as well?”
Friel frowned and shouted loudly.
“No! I’m telling you to investigate whether that girl’s unchanging record is true or whether she can be persuaded! You idiot!”
“Oh, yes. I understand…….”
Berello’s brow furrowed slightly.

A mountain of documents was piled on both ends of the large desk. On either side of it, in the sturdy-looking study, there were no luxuries whatsoever, and the documents were neatly organized by period and case. Just by that, it seemed possible to tell what kind of personality the owner of this room had.
And the man sitting in the middle of that mountain of documents was putting his legs up on the desk and grinning while looking at a report, as if he was in a good mood.
“All of them? And the nobles didn’t even raise a single eyebrow? Hahahaha!”
Deep threw his head back and laughed heartily. Ricky had never seen his captain express his emotions so much before. Deep quickly regained his expression and imagined Icarone’s actions in his head. As expected, he had both overwhelming force and insight. He was a friend who knew what to eliminate and what to use. He also had an improvisational ability that no one could match. If he were an enemy, he would be the most difficult and variable.
However, the reason Deep likes Icarone the most is because of his ‘rule’. He has his own extremely selfish rule. He only kills those who are worth killing according to his standards. If that were the case, it wouldn’t be a big deal since there are many contract killers who have a little bit of conscience.
But what is even more surprising is that it provides minimal ‘help’ to the weak.
Helping people while killing them for money? It is a very contradictory and hypocritical behavior. Deep actually did not understand it. However, he saw sincerity in that behavior and watched it continue, and he found his own answer. He constantly maintains ‘balance’ so that his spirit does not collapse due to that one-dimensional ‘good’. It means the source of life. Deep fell in love with such efforts of his.
Murder is an addiction beyond imagination. The same is true of ‘war aftereffects’, where soldiers who have been through a long war cannot stand peace and resort to violence or murder. Icarone, who ‘continues to kill but tries not to become a murderer’, is constantly making efforts.
Deep liked his posture.
The construction of the Berion Kingdom is not over. The real war begins after the armed struggle. Securing sustainable power and controlling conflicts with the enemy. There is no peace in the world. The only time for those who do not know is the period of preparation in which tensions are high between each other through controlling conflicts with the other party.
What kind of actions will he and the little girl take? Just watching is exciting and anticipating. The scale itself is completely different from the world we were in before… … .
He may get involved, but the request is only for three months of escort. If it doesn’t interfere with his plans, he only needs to complete the request, and the rest is up to the girl and Icarone. Unless his life is in danger…
The regular rocking of the chair stopped.
“Let’s make that girl’s wish come true. Let’s reveal the information that Count Friel obtains to them as well.”
“Your name.”
Deep looked at Ricky, who immediately bowed down and answered, with a satisfied expression. An answer, not a question, also means that he understood the exact intention of the command he had just given. The difference between knowing the intention and not knowing it makes a big difference in dealing with variables.
So Deep saves on interest.

The Enka Guild main building. Inside the luxurious red-decorated office, a red-haired man is pulling out his hair.

The more you know, the more lost you become.
“What the heck… did he just fall from the sky? Why did Berion go? What is this guy’s true identity?”
