Heavenly Inquisition Sword Chapter 1021

Episode 1021. It’s not something that can be easily passed on.

When the sound of ‘Sword Master’ suddenly came out of Baron Carl Dane’s mouth, Fabian, startled, rolled his head in search of words to reply.

It was because it was a secret between the two of them that Elio was a sword master.

Looking at Fabian, Carl Dane hinted.

“Isn’t it because of Sir Elio that you were able to feel relieved in Tamion? I’m not a sword master, but I think it could make sense if you’re at the level of a sword expert. What do you think?”

“…”

Fabian couldn’t help but be torn between the sword master and the sword expert.

There is a huge difference between a sword beginner and a sword expert, but it is nothing compared to a sword master.

When Fabian hesitated, Baron Caldane threw more bait.

“Tell me honestly. I researched Sir Elio for nine hours yesterday. The first thing I did was search for his aura. It was so huge that I couldn’t even fathom it at my level. It was the first time in my life that I had such a spirit. That must have been why the Marquis appointed him, a savage, as a knight. And I hope there will be no misunderstanding, but this investigation is not intended to hold Sir Elio and you accountable. Rather, it is a procedure for the official recognition of outstanding achievements. But should the achievement be suspected of being exaggerated or false? If Sir Elio’s level is a sword expert, he won’t have such suspicions.”

Those words shook Fabian slightly.

Come to think of it, I promised to keep it a secret with Elio, but considering his success, it would have been better to disclose it to some extent.

Baron Carl Dane asked repeatedly.

“Did Sir Elio kill the Ice Ogre and the beasts of the Ice Forest?”

“yes.”

“If I had been in the ice forest for three days, I would have killed quite a few monsters. Tell me what you remember.”

“I killed Smilodon and White Wolf. Other than that, you are what I said.”

“Did you see the aura on Sir Elio’s sword?”

“yes.”

“What about Aura Blade?”

“I didn’t see it.”

Fabian shook his head.

Elio sprayed hundreds of aura blades and saw the aura-enveloped sword flying around freely, but he didn’t say that.

Baron Carl Dane nodded.

“Okay. The ambiguity is now resolved. In that sense, I will check a few more things. The company commander, Baron Dennis Robin…”

Like a seasoned interrogator, Baron Carl Dane twisted the question slightly and started asking again from the beginning.

***

Fabian’s investigation also lasted close to 9 hours.

In the meantime, Alpha Company switched missions with Goliath Company in the County of Putocoa.

It was around 6pm when Fabian returned to the barracks of Alpha Company’s second lieutenant.

Upon his return, Cale and Qunut Ridley were greeted enthusiastically.

“Howdy! ‘Knight of Rift’ Fabian! Welcome!”

“I thought I was devoured by Baron Carl Dane because he didn’t come at all!”

“Sir Elio said that his time with Baron Caldane was more difficult than when he was in Tamion. Is that okay?”

Fabian, who had been listening with a puzzled face, asked.

“What is the Rift Knight?”

Ridley replied with a chuckle.

“ah! Didn’t you know? The soldiers of Marquis Bernardo call you and Sir Elio the ‘Knights of the Rift’. It is said that he was the first among the knights to cross the rift.”

“Hey, what a big deal.”

“Daesuji! Alpha Company, Diva Company, Goliath Company, this is the first time. At today’s replacement ceremony, Putokoa’s knights kept asking. Is it true that the two knights scouted Tamion?”

The Goliath Company, which replaced Alpha Company with Rift Guard, is the most elite unit dispatched from the County of Putokoa.

It was the first time that a knight had crossed over to Tamion, so rumors had spread among the garrison of Hirhera.

Fabian shrugged and looked at the tent.

But Elio was nowhere to be seen.

Without hesitation, he moved to his cot.

Soon after, exhausted physically and mentally, he laid down on the cot for a long time.

It feels as if your body is sinking under water.

The knights were making a lot of noise on one side, but all I could hear was a hum.

Just when I wanted to fall asleep like this, someone called.

“Didn’t everything happen?”

Fabian’s eyes widened at Elio’s voice.

“ah! Elio.”

As Fabian tried to get off the bed, Elio raised a hand to stop him.

“are you okay. won’t come down If there is anything I need to know, tell me now.”

He was considerate of his rival, Fabian, who had suffered for a long time under Baron Caldane’s interrogation.

“That’s it… Master Elio said he caught smilodon and white wolf in the ice forest. I heard that the ice forest is the home of demon beasts… You can’t hide for three days without anything happening. I just added that part.”

“It seemed so.”

It was regrettable to have a relationship, but I thought it was fortunate to stop.

It would have been difficult for a simple knight like Fabian to escape Baron Cal Dane’s intelligent pressure.

Because he lived close to Namgung-yeon and Simtong, his head worked fine, but it must have been too much for Fabian.

“And he said that Elio’s swordsmanship was like that of a sword expert who had awakened mana.”

At his words, the inside of the tent fell silent for an instant.

Sword beginners and sword experts have different titles.

For example, if a sword beginner was a baron, a sword expert could even receive the title of viscount.

Of course, ‘can receive’ does not mean ‘receive’.

This is because the bestowal of titles always depended on the heart of the king.

Bongjak could come sooner or later depending on the person’s achievements, origin, and use.

Wouldn’t it be a knight from a prestigious noble family? It was impossible for Helio, who was born as a barbarian, to become a viscount at once.

Even so, sword experts were treated at least on par with viscounts.

So, it was only natural that the knights who hadn’t even received a paycheck were nervous.

Cale and Qunut Ridley couldn’t take their eyes off Fabian and Elio.

Yeonjeokha nodded his head with a nonchalant face.

“Okay, stop resting.”

“yes.”

It wasn’t until after seeing Fabian lie down that he returned to his seat.

Lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling, Yeon Jeok-ha’s eyes were heavy.

He said it like it was nothing to Fabian, but he didn’t feel comfortable.

Because Baron Caldane might call him again.

Back then, when I was thinking about what to say, the bell rang.

After hesitating for a while, Cale approached Yeonjeokha.

“Sir Elio, it’s time for dinner.”

Knowing that the opponent was a sword expert, Cale’s attitude was extremely polite.

“Oh, do you want to go together?”

“yes.”

Yeon Jeok-ha stood up and stood up.

In the meantime, Ridley forcibly woke Fabian, who was about to fall asleep.

I got out of bed thinking that it would be better to hit the falcons first.

It was because I thought it would be more comfortable to meet Baron Carl Dane at a restaurant than to be nervous about not knowing when to call.

After a long time, the knights of the 1st platoon moved to the dining area as a group.

A barracks used as a dining room for knights.

As soon as I entered the restaurant, I sneakily looked around the seats of the aristocrats.

As expected, Baron Caldane was eating with Viscount Oscar Avid.

He sat down among his fellow knights, holding a plate of matchmaking.

Cale asked the young enemy who was tearing bread dry and mumbling with it in his mouth.

“Are you worried about anything?”

“It’s me?”

“yes. It seems like you haven’t been able to concentrate on eating since a while ago.”

“Oh, I was just thinking about the future.”

That’s not wrong.

I was thinking of what to say when I met Baron Carl Dane.

Then, Kyle shook his head in agreement.

He thought that a sword expert would be confused by the title of baron.

‘If I hadn’t been a savage, I would have been given the title of Viscount…’

Thinking that way made me feel sorry for Elio’s situation.

No matter how good your skills are, the reality is that if your background is low, it will hinder your success.

I matched the speed of my meal with Baron Caldane, whom I have a relationship with.

That’s because you can meet him naturally.

Seeing Baron Caldane get up, he hastily wiped the soup with bread, poured it into his mouth, and got up.

Before long, Yeon Jeok-ha and Baron Carl Dane met at the tableware return table.

Yeonjeokha stared at Baron Carl Dane as if he had something to say.

But Baron Carl Dane only smiled and said nothing.

After a while, Baron Caldane left the knight’s restaurant with Viscount Oscar Avid and his party.

Having come with his own mental preparation, he stared at Baron Carl Dane’s back with a blank face.

Fabian approached Elio and asked.

“What does the baron say?”

“Are you just laughing?”

“I won’t just get over it, though.”

“know. I don’t think I want to meet you right now.”

“He is someone who cares. Call me right away if you have something to say. Why do you wait so long?”

“I know. What you do resembles someone.”

Yeonjeokha shook his head excitedly.

Baron Caldane’s stomach was as elusive as heartache.

As they were about to leave, they approached the basket containing the stacking energy balls.

Energy balls were piled up like a mountain, probably because the shift of rift monitoring had ended.

As a habit, he brought an energy ball.

Then Fabian followed him and picked up a handful of energy balls.

“What’s wrong with Kyung-eun again?”

“Because you don’t know the future. I want to prepare like Elio-nim.”

“I’m not really like that, am I?”

He knew that this kind of behavior of his partner was just greed.

Warehouses or greening would be an aftereffect of the days.

It’s highly likely that it’s the latter because you can’t just get over it when you see something strange.

Fabian looked at Elio with respectful eyes and said.

“no. Thanks to Elio, I was able to stay healthy for three days. All thanks to Elio-nim’s thorough preparation spirit.”

At Fabian’s words, Cale and Qunut Ridley also took energy balls one by one.

***

Marquis Bernardo’s barracks.

After dinner, the three of us sat across from each other.

They are the Marquis Bernardo, the Marquis’ staff, Viscount Oscar Avid, and the Inquisitor, Baron Carl Dane.

Baron Caldane handed over the interview report to Marquis Bernardo.

“This is the result of conducting interviews with Sir Elio and Sir Fabian after they were isolated separately as soon as they came out of the rift.”

As soon as the Marquis read the report, he handed it over to Viscount Oscar Avid.

“This matter is also of interest to His Excellency Duke Escatos, the marshal of the garrison in Hirhera. Therefore, there should be no misunderstandings or mistakes. Do you know what I mean, Baron Carl Dane?”

“yes.”

“Are you sure the six warlocks disappeared with the mega teleport?”

“The size and shape of the magic field described by Sir Elio and Sir Fabian were obviously mega teleports.”

“Mega Teleport is a 7th circle magic. The fact that the 7th Circle Magus (top wizard) was involved in this incident… is not something that can be easily overlooked.”

“I know. However, I don’t think it’s a more serious situation than a crack in the creator’s Scutum.”

Marquis Bernardo nodded.

I don’t know about Baron Kal Dane, but considering the meteor swarm that fell on Hirhera, the Magus of Circle 7 was nothing.

“They evaluated Sir Elio’s status as strange. Do you think this is possible?”

“I can’t believe it, but that’s my judgment.

For a moment, Marquis Bernardo’s eyes narrowed.

I don’t know how to accept that a knight from a savage who trained aristocrats is a real sword expert.
