Heavenly Inquisition Sword Chapter 1033

Episode 1033. Does Sir Elio have a family?

Magus Cillian Hale, Duke of Hale, was a bit surprised when he heard that the savage soldier was a high-level sword expert.

“Compared to mana users, you must say so, right? Reaching that level by training Reiki… It’s amazing. But do you think that is possible?”

Magus Killian Duke of Hale looked at Duke Escatos with a suspicious look.

It’s because it’s a state that doesn’t make sense when you consider the limits of aura.

“Mage Carlos has confirmed this over and over again. If in doubt, the Duke should meet him.”

When Duke Escatos said that, Duke Magus Killian Hale waved his hand as if it was okay.

“If Mage Carlos confirmed it, it would be fine. Because there is no black magic that can fool the ‘Eye of Truth’. Still, I’m curious to see if it’s personal. I would appreciate it if you could set up a place with him sometime.”

“I will arrange a place for Sir Elio to go before he goes to receive his wages.”

“Thank you. Do you have any other stories left?”

“Not long ago, Sir Elio and a knight scouted Tamion.”

“Ohh! You said you scouted the kingdom all the way to Tamion?”

“It only happened once. However, they say they saw a group of warlocks during reconnaissance.”

“Didn’t the kingdom army guard the rift entrance?”

“Judging from the fact that he left by mega-teleport, it seems that the kingdom army went in and created the coordinates before monitoring the rift.

“Are you sure it’s a mega teleport?”

The face of Duke Magus Killian Hale hardened.

Mega Teleport is a 7 circle magic.

It was like saying that among the black magicians, there was a magus like him, so he naturally became nervous.

“It is said that it was a magic field large enough for six warlocks to enter at the same time.”

“Hmm. Then it must be a really mega teleport. From Meteor Swarm to Mega Teleport. I wonder if the magic corps can handle it. How does the duke look? Can the Kingdom Army and us alone solve this problem?”

“First, we asked for support from the nearby Baylem Kingdom.”

“They said that a civil war might break out… is it possible to apply?”

“Since the kingdom’s survival depends on it… I will support it. How is the situation in the Empire? Can I apply more?”

Duke Escatos looked at Duke Magus Killian Hale with meaningful eyes.

“Looking at your eyes, you seem to know something.”

“Will Magus be as good as knowing the inner affairs of the Baylem Kingdom?”

Magus Killian Duke of Hale shook his head excitedly.

“Recently, the southern kingdoms of the continent are showing signs of monopolizing the Abyss of the Great Forest… They dispatched troops to the border area, but there is no problem with Hirhera’s support. But I didn’t know if the news of the great forest reached the north. How far does the duke know?”

“I don’t know much. Is it to the extent that great treasures are being excavated in the kingdom adjacent to the Great Forest? But is it so great that it ruins your relationship with the Empire?”

Duke Escatos looked at Duke Magus Killian Hale with puzzled eyes.

Until now, the Great Forest had a strong character as a continental common management area.

As such, it was open to anyone, but suddenly the southern kingdoms bordering the Great Forest began to control access to the Great Forest.

The kingdoms of the north were like that or not – they were too far to go, so he didn’t care.

The problem is empire.

As it suddenly became difficult for Imperial adventurers to enter the Great Forest, the Empire was putting pressure on the southern kingdoms by deploying troops in the southern border.

“It’s not serious enough to think of war yet. It’s not like the southern kingdoms took full control of the Great Forest. Still, the attitude of the southern kingdoms is strong, so the dispatch will be a little longer.”

“Isn’t that total control?”

“It’s not that kind of problem. Is entering the Great Forest subject to reporting? We are in a tug-of-war with the Empire over the permission system?”

“The reason why the southern kingdoms suddenly came out with a report and permit system is probably because of the treasure, right?”

“That’s right. They insist on getting ‘permission’ from the southern kingdoms, and the Empire is fighting back saying ‘reporting’ is inconvenient.”

When Duke Magus Killian Hale evaded an answer like a snake, Duke Escatos asked more directly.

“What kind of treasure is it that suddenly makes the process of entering and exiting the Great Forest difficult?”

“Grunt! They say they found an area where steel golems were mass buried.”

“The steel golems were buried en masse?”

Duke Escatos could not hide his embarrassment at the unexpected answer.

Until now, the treasures from the Great Forest were simple magic tools.

Adventurers regarded it as a gift from Ushas Undra, the owner of the Abyss.

Among them, there were rare magic items that nobles scrambled to find, so if you were lucky, you could become rich suddenly.

But an iron golem!

If it wasn’t just one or two, but a collective burial… the eyes of the southern kingdoms could have turned.

It is only natural that the Empire and the military would move to remove the restrictions on access to the Great Forest.

This is because the security of the empire depends on ‘how many steel golems can be secured in which kingdom?’

When Duke Escatos was so surprised, Duke Magus Killian Hale hurriedly continued.

“Nothing has been confirmed yet. The story of the iron golem could just be a passing rumor. The stories about the Abyss are so exaggerated…”

“That’s true. The iron golem is really out of the blue.”

The adventurers who entered and exited the Abyss were more exaggerated than the anglers, but never less.

It is not an exaggeration to say that a mana stone the size of a fingernail was excavated and that it was the size of a watermelon.

For the adventurers of the Abyss, grandiose delusions and lies were commonplace.

“Still, there is one thing at a time, so I guess you could say they’re putting pressure on me. But after coming to Hirhera, I think it would be nice to have a steel golem.”

“Listening to your words makes me wish I had a steel golem.”

Duke Escatos nodded.

If there was an army of steel golems, the warlocks would be reassured no matter what they did.

Magus Cillian Duke of Hale shouted ‘tsk!’ he said, clicking his tongue.

“The place where you really need steel golems is not in the south, but in the north… isn’t it?”

“I don’t know if it’s real or not.”

“The Intelligence Agency has sent agents to the Adventurer City… sooner or later we’ll find out what the truth is.”

Duke Escatos glanced at Duke Magus Killian Hale.

Contrary to what he said, it felt like the truth had already been identified.

‘To believe that the empire only listened to rumors and moved its troops?’

However, Duke Escatos did not inquire further.

This is why the ‘crack in the ice wall’ and the ‘Meteor Swarm that fell on Hirrhera’ are more important than the steel golems in the Abyss.

“And there is one thing related to the warlock. It is said that warlocks erected stakes in Tamion and killed people in front of them. Then the stake disappeared beneath the snow. Mage Sir Carlos said he didn’t know what kind of magic it was. Do you know what kind of black magic that duke is?”

“You mean you sacrificed a person to Maltuk?”

“yes. Shortly thereafter, the stake disappeared beneath the snowfield.”

“That’s a black magic called Terminus.”

“A Terminus?”

“In other words, it is also called ‘The Barrier of the Evil God Shaitin’. It is other than black magic that is used to amplify the magic in a specific area with the power of evil spirits.”

“Then can you make a crack with it?”

“Terminus may not have been the direct cause of the rift, but stronger black magic must have been used by the power of the evil god.”

Duke Escatos’ face hardened.

It was because ‘Crack’ and ‘Meteor Swarm’ were said to be the work of black magicians.

“In order to spread the ‘Meteor Swarm’ with the help of Terminus… what level does a wizard have to be?”

“More than the 7th circle… or maybe the 8th circle.”

“It is terrible. Are there any 8th circle warlocks on the continent of Rodina?”

“As far as I know, but… the world of warlocks is so hidden that I can’t be sure.”

***

After three days, Alpha Company withdrew from the front lines of the rift to its garrison.

Could it be around 3pm?

Baron Dennis Robin came to see Elio resting in the knights’ barracks.

“Squadron commander?”

“Sir Elio. Could you please give me a minute?”

“Now?”

“yes.”

“So what.”

Elio followed Baron Dennis Robin out of the inn.

As he left, Baron Dennis Robin said with a puzzled look.

“Baron Irwin Leder, the commander of the Bellatos Company, would like to thank Sir Helio. You can refuse if you feel uncomfortable.”

“are you okay.”

Elio readily accepted.

Is it possible to feel uncomfortable when the company commander of Yeongji-gun said he would like to say thank you?

As if it had been discussed in advance, Baron Dennis Robin guided only to the barracks of the Bellatos squadron commander and returned.

After a while, Elio entered the barracks and hesitated.

In the barracks, not only the company commander Bellatos, but also a beautiful young lady in uniform were there.

Could it be that he is suddenly a visitor to the company commander of Bellatos?

“I didn’t know you had guests. I’ll come back later.”

At Elio’s words, Baron Erwin Leather laughed and waved his hand.

“haha! Not a guest, but my cousin brother. This is Baron Ashley Nelson, an escort knight for the Corvo Magic Corps. Say hello to Ashley. This is the Sir Elio I was talking about earlier.”

At Baron Irwin Leather’s words, the blonde beauty said with a bright smile.

“I heard a lot. He said he saved Erwin’s army. I am Ashley Nelson of the Corvo Magic Corps.”

“Ah yes. My name is Elio from Alpha Company.”

After the introduction, Baron Irwin Leder sat Elio across from him.

Naturally, Ashley Nelson moved to Baron Irwin Leder’s side.

As the two settled down, Baron Irwin Leatherr fussed about preparing coffee.

Before long, a coffee cup was placed in front of Elio.

“Baron Ashley is my aunt’s daughter. He is also a junior at the Knights Academy of Jedo. I was a child when I was in the academy, but I became a knight before I knew it. When you look at it like this, the years seem to go by so fast. haha.”

Unknowingly, Elio couldn’t help but laugh when he thought of Namgung-yeon and his daughter.

Elio quickly drank coffee to hide his bitter expression.

Is it because of the family he left behind?

The bitter taste was felt even more today.

Baron Irwin Leather kept talking about something, but it didn’t come to his ears.

Ashley Nelson, who was quietly examining Elio’s complexion, asked in passing.

“I heard that savage tribes get married quickly… Does Sir Elio have a family?”

Then Baron Irwin Leather answered on behalf of Elio.

“Don’t talk about your family in front of Sir Ashley Helio. Because Sir Helio became the Marquis of Bernardo, the heir of Count Putocoa killed all of Sir Helio’s tribe. Because of that, the relationship between Lord Helio and Count Putocoa is not good right now.”

“ah! sorry. I didn’t even know that…”

Elio didn’t say anything.

If he said ‘I live in the underworld’, only he would hear the sound of a crazy person, so he just kept his mouth shut.

As the atmosphere became awkward with family talk, Elio said goodbye to Baron Irwin Leather.

“You had a good coffee. I’ll just go back.”

“Ah yes…”

Elio got up from his seat and Baron Irwin Leather stood up as well.

Ashley Nelson said with a bright face.

“See you again after Sir Elio.”

“yes.”

Elio gave them both a thumbs up and then turned around.
