Episode 103
Episode 45. Fishing (3)
“Glory is glory and asked what happened.”
Duran said, fixing his eyes on the fishing rod again. His voice was not good, as if it was unpleasant to have his leisure life interrupted after a long time.
“That… Lord Hayes told me to bring the author…
“Why?”
“You said you would like to receive additional statements about the gateway terrorism.”
“His Majesty has already held a trial and the results have come out, so why is he receiving additional statements? Do you think that makes sense?”
Perhaps because of the whispers, the fish stopped touching the needles.
“You know Sir Duran well, don’t you?
We are simply carrying out the Chancellor’s orders. If that has offended you, I’ll start by saying I’m sorry.”
It was a knight kneeling on one knee.
The long-armed knight who first talked to Duran was startled by the new knight’s sudden action, and his heart skipped a beat.
Duran raised his head as if amused by the young knight who dared to vomit at his horse.
“Oh, it’s the first time I’ve seen your face. I’ll give you high marks for the courage to answer me. What is your name?”
“This is Jack Heugin. Sir Duran.”
It was the same knight whose sword was broken while shouting chivalry and conviction and trying to arrest Yuma for rebellion.
‘Wow… That guy is really bad too.
I have to admit that honest belief.’
The fact that humans can be so stiff, Yuma was even curious about the young knight named Jack in front of him.
“Go take a break. It seems that there are only very low spirits. But, my pupil is not a mongrel who comes when Heize tells him to come and goes when Heize tells him to go.”
“Yes, I understand. Lord Duran, then may I ask for your cooperation in just one thing?”
Jack fearlessly asked for Duran’s cooperation.
Duran laughed mockingly, but he didn’t hate the young knight’s spirit.
“Speak.”
“Please check the inside of the carriage once and then go back.
We also have to report to Lord Hayes.”
Duran glanced at Yuma.
Yuma shrugged. It meant to know.
The garrison knights’ jaws dropped wide when they saw the imperial commander-in-chief staring at a mere commoner.
“Do it.”
Jack, who is like a bamboo at best and a bastard at worst, also doubted his own eyes when he saw the scene.
Even Jack acknowledged that the commoner’s skills were amazing. It was because he had personally experienced the monstrous power of destroying a sword wielded by an official knight with his bare hands.
However, the commander-in-chief of the world’s strongest knight empire, whom he respects as a knight, glances at Yuma as if asking for permission? My mind was confused.
‘Sir Du Duran must have something else. Lord Duran is not the kind of person who would look into the hearts of commoners!’
Jack pursed his lips, stood up, and approached the carriage.
“I’m afraid I’ll misunderstand, but I’m not looking at the carriage to pay for the humiliation I received from you last time.”
“Yes yes. It’s a judgment based on that firm belief. Don’t get me wrong Sir Jack. Please feel free to check it out.”
Jack jerked off the wagon tent.
Inside, all you could see was a huge bucket full of live fish.
“Now that you’ve come this far, how many would you like to take?”
“The knights of the Heung Guard do not receive any monetary compensation.
Even if it’s just a few fish that you hand over without meaning.”
“How would you like to do it? After Joe passed away, the garrison had no choice but to do so.
Except for Jack, the rest of the garrison knights were singing joy to themselves.
He didn’t even want to imagine how much Heize would bite his shins if he returned without inspecting the carriage that Duran and Yuma had been driving in and reported it.
Thanks to a fearless new chick named Jack, ‘I even saw the wagon. What a wagon of Duran Jacques’,
he had something to report.
It was going to be a good finish for everyone present.
“Sir Duran, I am sorry for disturbing your life. Then we’ll leave.”
“Come in. Tell Heize that I will definitely pick up on the fact that I opened my wagon today.”
A good finish for everyone disappeared like bubbles at the last word of Duran. The garrison was left with the only thing left to do was face Hayes without mercy.
“There you are, commoner. I am well aware that you are a disciple of Lord Duran. But don’t forget your duty as a commoner. I mean, don’t even think about daring to disrespect Lord Duran!”
Before the garrison returned, Jack glared at Yuma and added a sigh.
Yuma looked so funny that he was about to burst into laughter at any moment. This was not the conviction of a noble knight, but poison.
“Haha… hey you. no no.
not you yes you are Come to work.”
Duran, who was listening, called out to the captain with his index finger.
Puck!
Soon, Duran swung his fist like a hammer and hit him on the head.
“Kook!”
The helmet was crushed and the captain fell.
The captain barely held on to his dizzying spirit and immediately got up and maintained a alert posture.
“If you have a boss like that, you’ll die from cheating on your friends. Please educate your juniors properly.”
“All right!”
After the garrison had left, the two fished for another couple of hours before preparing to return.
Throughout, Duran teased Yuma by catching good fish.
“As expected, even from a fishing village, this Duran Jacques can’t do it. Disciple, the fish I caught will be four or five times as many!”
Wow!
But soon after, a dragon turtle was hanging from the fishing rod that Yuma lifted.
He was so big and strong that he had to inject an aura to increase his strength so that his fishing rod wouldn’t break.
“Haha, is that so? I will go back and use this to take care of you, who has worked hard all day today.”
“Eh…
Zishka woke up right away and held her breath, enduring the fishy smell pouring from the fish basket. As expected, it was an uncomfortable experience that she would never experience again as a princess.
But somehow it made me laugh. It was nice to hear Duran and Yuma chatting while fishing on the bar.
It felt like warm feelings that had been forgotten for a long time were resurrected.
* * * “Anyway, the culprit doesn’t seem to be Yuma.”
Hayes said to Winslting.
Varys had already had new magical processed teeth in place of her missing teeth thanks to the magic healers of the imperial castle.
The swelling on his face had almost subsided, and it was difficult to find any traces of being beaten if only the torn scalp was covered well with the helmet.
Although I suffered from high fever throughout the treatment due to excessive bleeding and excreta poison.
“If not that commoner, who are you?”
“I have to look for it. After sending the garrison and checking the passage of the gate, Yuma was fishing at Duran and Lake Bile at that time. I sent a garrison for no reason and ended up having a war of nerves with Duran.”
As soon as the garrison delivered Duran’s line, ‘I will definitely take care of the carriage check’, Hayes was furious and threw out his fists first.
– You stupid bastards! Why did you even check that out! Did you ask because you were curious if the fishing was going well!?
Tonight, Jack Heugin was supposed to endure the harsh behavior of his senior knights all night.
“Fishing… I was fishing. “Yes Archduke. There is no record of coming back. It’s an impression, and there’s nothing that agrees with what Sir Barris said.”
“Is it possible that Yuma bribed the soldiers at the gate and fabricated the passage details?”
“doesn’t exist. Checked everything. With Duran, there is no need to manipulate it.”
Winslting and Hayes never thought that Yuma might have used a secret passage known only to the royal family.
Even Duran did not know about the secret passage for the ancient Dwarves, the designers of Hale Castle.
When going to attack Baris, Duran even asked Yuma how he found out about this passage.
Yuma replied ‘by chance’.
“Varis said there were two assailants. Other than Duran Jacques and Yuma, who else can subdue the Imperial Guard knights so easily?”
“If not as strong as Duran, it is rare to find someone as good as Yuma. And it wasn’t Duran’s way of assaulting Varys.
don’t you know? If the culprit was Duran, he would never have let Varys live.”
“ha. It was just that we first made the appearance of finding evidence on Johaim, and immediately framed Zishka for treason and executed him.”
“The Grand Duke, first of all, we must use the black magician to find the whereabouts of the first princess. If we provide enough sacrifices, we will be able to locate the princess.”
“I can’t trust him anymore. He has the gift of foresight.
What is the reason why things keep failing? You wouldn’t have gotten very far yet. “There is no reason for him to betray us. Because the warlock also didn’t expect the variable called Yuma.
Both Jeka and Joachim. It doesn’t look like Yuma right now, though.”
Winslting didn’t answer and looked in Varys’ direction.
“Anyway, I can’t delay any longer. Report the kidnapping of Zishka directly to my wife.”
It was like telling Varys to die.
It was not enough that the Imperial Family Guard failed to fulfill its duties, so it did not report immediately after the abduction occurred.
More than three hours had already passed since Zishka was kidnapped.
Zishka’s attendant ladies-in-waiting and escort knights were forced to report.
At least, Zishka usually disappears for hours at a time and burns the shit lines of the attendants, so it has not been discovered until now.
“The Archduke, I…
“Who were the men assigned as Jishka’s attendants today?”
“It was Camel Driss and Larne Grey.”
After hearing that far, Baris realized what Wonselting was saying.
“Varis, could I possibly abandon you? don’t use them both. Lord Hayes, let you call Camel and Ran secretly. The processing after that…
“I will take care of it myself.”
great.
* * * Camel Dries and Lan Gray received Hayes’ note and climbed the mountain behind the Hwangseong Drainage Treatment Facility.
The person who delivered the note was Zishka’s attendant lady-in-waiting.
They weren’t the ones who dared to disobey the Prime Minister’s orders, and they were even loyal.
Neither the attendant nor Camalan told anyone that they had received the note from Hayes.
“Are you here?”
“Yes Sir Hayes. What did you find us for…
“You didn’t tell anyone that I found you, did you?”
“Yes, I didn’t tell anyone, and I came secretly by the method you told me.”
Hayes kindly wrote down the route he traveled on a note, asking him to come back so that he would never be noticed.
Camel and Ran stood there, gulping.
Even rumors had never heard of such a secret call from the chancellor. It seemed that something important was waiting for them.
Hayes fiddled with the leaves of the tree he was leaning on and broke a branch the size of his forearm.
“good. I will remember your loyalty.”
“yes? Suddenly, what…
I’m hooked!
The tree branch was also a weapon that was no different from a steel spear in the hands of the imperial sword Hayes.
Haze poked and swung at the branch at a speed that Camel and Ran couldn’t react to.
The two died without even screaming in agony.
Around that time, the attendant who secretly passed the note to Camel and Ran was killed by Varys. The body was dumped in Winslting’s outbuilding pond.
