Episode 740 Oh, my true brother (5)
The moment So-young’s arrogant words compelled him, he became a mute from honey.
“You kill the Lord…”
His complexion darkened noticeably.
Soyoung looked back at Ray, as if she wanted to say something.
“What should I do?”
Why do you ask your doctor when you’ve already said it?
Ray looked around.
A woman who seemed to have decided to commit suicide with the knights who were already in a state of disrepair.
I don’t know if they just collected the toll tax, but since they seem to be the ones who commit murder, there’s nothing good about keeping them alive.
That would be the case, too, because I don’t think that side would feel comfortable if there were other damages caused by showing mercy.
“Kill them all.”
Even talking about it makes me feel weird.
Like a puppy that heard the answer he had been waiting for, Soyoung stood up with a happy face.
“yes.”
At that, Chae-joo frowned and gripped the sword.
‘I’ll have to take anyone as a hostage.’
In order to live, you have to negotiate.
It was clear that the kid would be the only escort among them anyway.
That’s also the case, because at a glance, the rest of them seem more like aristocrats than escorts.
Soyeong ran out to the bandits.
Chae-joo felt chills running down her spine as she watched her men slaughter at a terrifying speed, and hurriedly ran to the carriage opposite her.
“ha ha ha! You stupid bitch!”
Escorting, escaping from the person you need to protect!
If you catch one person, you won’t be able to move without care!
While Chae-ju was choosing a hostage, her eyes met Ray.
The feeling that everyone is standing around him.
It’s clear that he’s a high-ranking noble, so it’d be best to catch him.
Having finished his judgment, he reached out his hand to Ray.
He planned to drag him by the collar, but his thoughts went back to Musan.
“Quaaaaagh!”
Chae-ju, whose entire wrist had been cut off, screamed.
Standing in front of Chae-joo were the security guard and Zeke with hard faces.
“A lowly fellow.”
The inside of his hand was so clean that even the moment his wrist was cut off, blood did not splatter.
Cheongyoung kept a sneer on him.
“I have to kill you for making fun of your dirty hands.”
When the sharp dagger stabs Chae-ju into the chest, a hole is pierced in the lungs and no voice comes out.
Chaeju, who was writhing in pain, soon became limp.
* * *
Wild vegetables were organized at a rapid pace.
Soyeong’s confidence was so great that she couldn’t even think of counterattacking.
Seeing her follow and kill every one of those who ran away, Lawton was mortified.
“Sung… no, my lord. I took care of everything.”
So-young approached with quick steps, her eyes shining as if she was hoping for praise.
The knights who saw her innocently wiping the blood off her face after she wiped out more than 20 bandits at once became quiet for an instant.
“great job.”
“Good job. If this gets caught on me, it’s okay.”
It makes strange noises and pretends to slit its throat.
Like his ability to deal with bandits, and how he overpowered Chae-ju, who had magic tools, like a child.
These were never ordinary people.
Among them, the one that stands out in particular is the little girl in front of her fluttering eyes.
If he had that level of skill, he would surely have been given a title in the kingdom.
‘Where in the world did these people…’
Seeing as they saved themselves from being doomed to death by bandits, it seems that they are not knights from hostile families.
Then, is it really a fate that we met while passing by this mountain road?
Lawton thought for a moment, then shook his head.
Even if it’s a coincidence, doesn’t it make sense?
It’s hard to believe that I met such a talented person that I couldn’t even follow the movement with my eyes without any connection on a mountain road like this.
Lawton approached them with a face full of wariness.
“I got help. We are the knights of Count Cerian. May I ask your affiliation?”
When he asked politely, Soyoung tilted her head.
For Count Cerian, the kingdom of Celia has changed.
It could be said that the lord was one of the powerful families with the Marquis.
Although he had recently been ostracized by the nobles of the same faction and had reduced his power, even so, he did not fall to the point of being annihilated by these bandits.
When Soyoung looked at her with the meaning of ‘What should I do?’, Ray answered instead of her.
“We are nobles of the Duchy of Soleil.”
“iced coffee. You did.”
Hearing that he was an aristocrat of the principality, Lawton seemed convinced in his heart.
While in the Kingdom of Gleiman, Harfman heard that the county of the principality had increased significantly.
It was doubtful whether the count’s article was acceptable, but Lawton made me realize that it was a mistake.
He spoke without even thinking about stopping the bleeding.
“It’s embarrassing to ask someone you’ve met for the first time because it’s not enough to receive grace… but I hope you will help us.”
Lawton saw So-yeong, who was strong enough to join the Royal Knights, keeping an eye on Ray, thinking that the son of an aristocrat in the principality in front of him was a great status.
The natural attitude also became polite.
After hearing the story, Ray made a slightly troubled face.
He didn’t know what their situation was, but he thought the most important thing right now was the issue of the Kingdom of Silia and the Principality.
It is not that I turn my gaze to enjoy the sweet and sour life with Aira.
really.
The woman of the count family, who had been grasping the situation from behind the knight, approached.
“Thank you for saving me. This is Levia from Count Cerian.”
brave prayer.
The mana felt inside his body was very weak, but the prayers that came out naturally were grand compared to ordinary people.
A character is a character
Ray asked for a handshake.
“It’s Ray. The castle has circumstances.”
“Ray…”
She thought it was a name she remembered hearing somewhere.
“What happen? There would be no reason for knights to confront bandits in a forest like this.”
Even the most stupid bandits take their own lives seriously.
Seeing the knights lined up, they wouldn’t normally think of attacking.
However, they were fighting bandits.
It was hard to think unless there was a reason.
Lawton groaned at his words.
I never thought I would bring up a sensitive topic.
For a woman to tell the story of being betrayed and thrown out by her fiancé was as cruel as forcibly opening a wound that never healed.
Even for her, it was difficult for her to say this.
He spoke slowly, trying to suppress the feeling of betrayal and anger that was starting to boil again.
“I had a fiancé. My two families were close enough to the point that I decided to get married from an early age.”
Thinking of the past, his expression softened a little.
“But within a few years the family was shaken. His family didn’t know us as if it was the case, and he was betrayed at this time when the marriage was only three months away.”
Levia looked at the knights around her.
A body full of wounds.
Looking at his exhausted expression, it was impossible to fight any longer.
However, the knights from that house are still searching for them.
If it continues like this, it is only a matter of time before it is annihilated.
She bowed her head to Ray.
“please. Please help us.”
A man who dared to forget his childhood promise.
Help me to get revenge on the man who betrayed my trust with betrayal.
Her eyes were saying that.
To be honest, it was embarrassing for Ray to let them go back like this.
If he let go when he knew he was going to die, his little conscience would feel remorse.
‘Even so, Celia’s work is also important.’
As the merchants withdrew one by one due to people dying due to black magic, it was obvious that Celia would suffer from financial difficulties.
Of course, it seems to be responding in its own way, but if the cause cannot be removed, it is not a solution but a temporary measure.
Thinking deeply, Ray nodded his head.
Soyoung, who was watching the situation carefully, shuddered at the bad feeling.
“Isn’t it? Please say no.”
As an intelligence officer, she overcame the hellish training and ran around as if her feet were on fire even in the Kingdom of Gleiman.
If a person had a conscience, he wouldn’t hand over work to himself who had suffered so much.
However, Ray was a rare person who did not care about the hopes of his subordinates.
“So-Young and Heuk-Young have to work hard.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Unlike Heukyoung, who prostrates himself and obeys an order at once, Soyeong reluctantly prostrates and obeys, but her complexion is dead yellow.
“I was very well received. Even if the girl dies in a foreign country, please do not hold a funeral.”
“If it’s enough to kill the two of you in a distant land, that’s something worth investigating.”
He spoke without losing a single word, but he couldn’t help but feel that way.
Soyoung swallowed her anger and returned to the back.
Levia said.
“…the favor will surely be repaid.”
I said thank you, but somehow I didn’t like it.
He glanced at So-young and Heuk-young, but they probably thought that they had just handed over two escorts.
Ray smiled and waved at Soyoung and Heukyoung.
Then, the two new models were shot like an arrow.
“Huh!”
Lawton, who was around Levia, hurriedly pulled out his sword and tried to prepare, but the two swords had already touched Levia’s neck first.
Unable to read his movements, she looked a little startled.
Then, Count Cerian’s knights pointed their swords at them.
Tension began to linger in the son-in-law.
Ray ignored them and spoke coldly to Levia.
“I don’t know if you know it, but I’m sending my men to death out of sympathy for you. If you intend to disparage the men I take pride in, I may not sympathize with you any longer.”
This is a warning.
It’s a kind of device to keep them from looking down on themselves.
These two can kill you at any time, so take care of yourself.
The current action contained such a message.
Zeke exuded momentum.
“It is disrespectful. Who are you raising your sword in front of?”
He has already partially escaped from Master and is looking at the next stage.
Even though it was adjusted, there was no way the knights would have the ability to hold on.
The feeling that your throat will be cut off any moment.
It is a chilling feeling, as if someone is throwing a sword at your neck on the battlefield.
Most of the knights trembled at the murder felt from all sides.
The only thing holding on was Lawton.
