Episode 116
Episode 49. It was unusual for a debtor Hugo to spew alcohol. The members’ attention was focused on Yuma and Hugo.
“…Did I hear it wrong?”
Hugo wasn’t the only one who thought so. The members also had ears.
Everyone who sat near Yuma was told that he was a ‘traitor to the Empire’.
Even though the Worgs were a place where only machos were made up of muscles to the core, they couldn’t help but know what the term ‘traitors to the empire’ meant.
“You seem to have heard correctly.
Mother Zishka is a traitor to the Empire. A wanted order will be issued soon. Your Majesty has declared a state of emergency.”
Yuma nailed it.
The noisy hall froze in an instant. Zishka smiled and was cradled in Hugo’s arms.
“As I said before, I am a woman with many sins.”
Zishka also decided to attach some iron plates to his face. It was also Zishka’s theory that there should be no secrets between married couples.
Hugo turned his head like a machine and stared at Zishka.
“Why do you hate traitors?”
“Not like that.”
“I guess you don’t like it?”
“I said no.”
For a while, the two of them repeated the same words. Who would have imagined that Hugo had such a cute side.
Putting the heavy words of treason and war out of her head, Yuma smiled happily as she admired the newlyweds for a moment.
After arguing with Zishka, Hugo did not argue further with Yuma. It was he who gave the test without looking back. I didn’t have to tell her why I was just letting her know.
“The Empire will try to kill my wife.”
“It’s not just killing. As for the story, it is infinitely long… but it is true that Godmother Zishka committed treason when she was the princess. The Empire will punish you with dismemberment and decapitation.”
“Tell me a story that has no limit and no end.”
Yuma looked at Jishka’s eyes. It was a matter that required the person’s consent to tell everyone that he had been drugged and attracted demons.
“Let me speak for myself.”
Zishka took a deep breath and began to explain in detail how he had come to the Worgs. He talked about Asuka’s favoritism and Winslting’s slander without missing a single one.
Whatever the reason, he did not forget that he had come to become Hugo’s bride in order to save his life.
Because there should be no secrets between a married couple. It was the same with the new family. Hugo listened in silence.
“…that’s how it happened. maybe mama No, the Empress of the Empire will soon issue a wanted order to me.”
The members, who had been drinking and chewing meat, swallowed their saliva and waited for Hugo’s next words.
“No one on earth will be able to take your life if it is not for me and the promised subordinates.”
The members were agitated. It wasn’t because of Hugo’s choice. It was amazing that that person could say such a thing.
It was a pretty embarrassing answer. It was also a remark that would be dismissed as childish bluff if said by an ordinary person.
But it was Hugo.
“I will visit the empire soon. Yuma.”
“Yes, Mr. Hugo.”
“You go with me.”
“I see.”
Yuma raised her glass.
“Even though she became a traitor and became a fugitive, Godmother Zishka is never lacking as Hugo-sama’s mate.”
“I like the bride too.”
“Hugo. I think I deserve a toast to both of you. By the way, I don’t have many pleasant memories when I received a glass from a high-ranking person.”
It was true. It was the same when he received cups from all nobles as a eunuch and when he received five barrels of wine from Zishka in this life. Zishka understood Yuma’s meaning.
“You are bold in big things, but you have a small corner in a strange place.”
Squeeze…
Zishka leaned down and filled Yuma’s glass with alcohol. With one hand holding the neck of the bottle, with the other supporting the body.
Except for the Empress, Zishka had never poured alcohol so politely.
I didn’t like it. It wasn’t the world’s most powerful mother who handed her a new life, nor her husband, Abba Mama. It was Yuma.
“If Godmother Zishka is a sinful woman, then I am a man with many sad memories.”
“You look like you will be laughing until I die.”
“Good. Godmother needs more days to laugh.”
Yuma poured the drink at once and held out the empty glass again. This time, Hugo poured me a drink.
“Hugo. Now that you are not alone, I hope you will always be careful.”
Hugo found the wild kid in front of him so cute that he wanted to bite him to death. There was not a single person in his life who dared to say such a thing against himself.
If you say it loosely, it means to take care of yourself. Who cares about whom?
“Like my wife said, you will be arrogant until I die.”
As for Yuma, it was because of memories from before returning.
Eight years remained until the Dragon Horse War. Right before the Dragon Horse War broke out, Hugo was killed by Cagor.
Hugo also changed a lot in this life. There was a variable that welcomed Zishka as a bride. The assassination of Cagor could have been delayed or delayed.
It was for that reason that Yuma gave a congratulatory speech related to life and death.
Zishka was a princess and suffered from countless conspiracies and schemes in the imperial castle. Even if Yuma didn’t explain Hugo’s last days before returning, Zishka seemed to be paying attention to Kagor.
Yuma also planned to take a closer look at Kagor’s actions in the future. Now that Jishka has become a priest, Hugo is now almost Yuma’s strength.
As long as the dragon horse war was scheduled, Hugo could not be lost. Even if it wasn’t for the dragon horse war, Yuma also had a pretty big crush on Hugo. Even in this life, I couldn’t let him be beaten by Kagor.
“Hugo, would you like to have an empire?”
Zishka asked.
“Do I look like someone interested in land or something?”
“I don’t think so. Well, if you put your mind to it, you could have built a country that could be compared to the Empire.”
It was sincere. This was the first time Zishka had ever seen Hugo in person.
Even in the eyes of a woman who had not learned martial arts, Hugo was an extraordinary person.
The rumor that Ilshin’s strength surpassed 100,000 troops was not a lie.
I knew from my own experience that a culprit could not even approach from 100 meters away. Zishka often thought of that while watching Duran Zac when she was a princess.
It was the reason why she was bitter towards Duran from a certain point even before she got drunk. What if a human with that enormous power covets power someday? It was absolutely necessary to keep it in check.
Why is he so loyal to Mama even though he has so much power?
“Because the end of power is not there. nowhere I just complete the work given to me. That is leading the Worgs.”
It was a problem that even Yuma was worried about at one time. Until I heard the story of ‘Superhuman Order’ from Duran.
Hugo’s gaze turned to Yuma.
It was a look of curiosity toward a human being who would soon be in the same ‘class of superhumans’. It was a serious gaze that didn’t need to add a question.
“I will also concentrate on completing the task given to me.”
“What is your job?”
what is it Preparing for the Dragon Demon War? To enjoy a new life? To rise to the pinnacle of my country?
All of that was included in Yuma’s own goals. But I had a feeling I couldn’t explain, but that wasn’t all.
As far as Yuma knew, he was the only time regressor in the world. It was an area where even grandmasters like Hugo and Duran could not seek advice.
If time reversal was a blessing or a burden given to another person, the closest was the mysterious wizard he met in Yoheim.
A wizard who is strongly convinced that the day will come when we will meet again someday.
The man who gave back the silver coin while performing magic comparable to a god.
Even if Yuma met him again, he had no intention of seeking advice.
The wise eunuch Yuma. Before returning, the empress Hella Rose called Yuma that way.
‘You’re wise. Before returning, I was a stupid person who had never chosen my own life. Even with outstanding potential different from others.’
How many humans are using dragons to gain power and power. At that level, he was a commoner only by his status, but he was a different human being from the starting line.
Even so, I wasted my life as a eunuch because I couldn’t cook a single Pyeongchul knight. Even before returning, he had to fight for his life at least once. Just like myself now.
On the one hand, it was bittersweet.
How many talented people are still rotting and breaking down?
No, you don’t even have to be talented. Everyone should have had the opportunity to choose their own life.
How many people are bent, broken, and shed tears of blood by trivial power? Remaining as a phenomenon in which miracles and salvation do not exist.
After returning, it was no different from preparing the paving stones for the dragon horse war, helping my car, and responding to Evan’s earnest request for help.
This is because only he, of all mankind, has been given the privilege of a second life. The basis for those choices was a sense of indebtedness to humans.
“well. To put it bluntly, it seems like paying off a debt.”
Hugo asked no more.
“That’s the answer I like. Wet it.”
“Wet it.”
Yuma emptied the glass Hugo had poured him in one sip. I was drunk
“Can’t you feel that debt to me as well?”
It was Natalie.
“I always feel it.”
The feast was not over until dawn. Zishka even stood up and sang while drunk.
It was a good folk song. It was a passage that showed how much she was interested in the lives of the people of the empire before she got drunk.
“Some of the popular songs in the Empire these days include something like this! It seems like there will be a song like this in Matan sooner or later.”
Among the songs that Zishka playfully sang, there was also a song that the bards made up of Yuma’s story. When we sang ‘Hugo or Duran or Yuma’, ‘The Strongest Orderly in History’ and ‘Ten Million Orcs Slayer’, the members clapped their hands and laughed.
Several arrows and daggers were fired along the way, but they were all murder attempts close to experiments.
It was a memorization that I blew in the name of wondering if the boss would get angry after blocking it. After all, it was a fearless group.
The feast was over only after the sun had risen in the afternoon. Hugo went into the sleeping quarters with Zishka, and the rest of the crew spread out on the floor and slept.
Kagor, who had returned after completing the request, touched his forehead as if he had a headache while watching the headquarters. Igor heard the news that his boss had married an imperial princess.
It was something that made the mountains and rivers laugh.
