Heavenly Inquisition Sword Chapter 1049

Episode 1049. If you ask for help, I’ll help.

Fortnight ago, Petropolis, the imperial capital.

Empires did not suddenly fall from the sky one day.

It takes a long time for a city to grow into an empire.

In the process, someone’s sacrifice is essential.

It was an open secret that the nobility of the empire hired assassins to eliminate political enemies.

Assassinations took place more actively in the islands than in the provinces.

As the situation progressed, the number of professional assassination organizations based in Petropolis, an institution, exceeded ten.

This is the case with the number of professionally run assassination squads, not the trivial criminals.

The most famous of these was the Crescent Red Scorpion Black Spider.

In particular – the symbol of the crescent moon – Crescent had no history of failed assassinations and was even called a legend.

“ha! That’s serious…”

A shotgun squeak escaped from Wayne Casey’s lips as he stared at the books for over an hour with a hard face.

The legendary Crescent was dying.

The biggest reason is that the imperial family has been stable, and the second is that the power struggle between high-ranking nobles has faded.

The main source of income for an assassination organization is, of course, assassination contracts.

However, there has been no significant activity in the past decade.

This isn’t just Crescent’s problem.

Sadly, all three major assassination syndicates in the system were going downhill.

Two competing organizations, Red Scorpion and Black Spider, started cutting their staff three years ago.

They are forcibly holding on to the face of being a legendary contract organization, but that too has reached its limits.

To my shame, I now have no money to pay the commissioners (assassins).

Of course, the committee members would not press because they knew the difficulty of the operation, but it was a disgraceful thing to do as the chairman of Crescent.

As he pondered over the reduction of Crescent’s staff, a calm voice came from outside the door.

“Chairman. Are you there?”

Wayne Casey raised his head.

It was Eileen Rader, the vice-chairman who stopped walking for a while.

“Come in.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a woman in her 50s shouted, ‘Knock up!’ opened the door and came in

“Chairman.”

The vice-chairman’s voice was calm, but his face was flushed.

Wayne Casey pretended not to know and said hello.

“Long time no see.”

“Yes, because I haven’t had a big request in the meantime.”

At the word big request, Wayne Casey’s eyes flashed.

If the request was enough for the vice-chairman to come to the chairperson himself, Crescent’s problem could be solved at once.

“Who is the client?”

“I am Countess Putokoa of the Escatos Kingdom.”

“You came from afar. What is the target?”

“I want you to take care of one of the articles of the Marquis Bernardo.”

“Is Marquis Bernardo a thing for the Escatos Kingdom?”

“That’s right.”

“By the way, didn’t you just say it was a big request?”

Wayne Casey looked at the vice-chairman with a sullen face.

I don’t know how many people talk about how big a request they’ll get after dealing with a knight from a marquis in the north.

“The target is a sword expert.”

“aha.”

Wayne Casey nodded knowingly.

If the opponent is a sword expert, it becomes money.

So far, among the people Crescent had assassinated were the Sword Masters, so it wasn’t difficult.

“Are you certain of the identity of the client?”

“I am Baron John Mitch of the Griffin Knights. They said they came at the direction of Viscount Colacio Keeper, the commander of the knights.”

“Of course, Count Putokoa is behind him, right?”

“That’s right.”

“How much?”

“I decided on a million gold.”

“Phew! That’s great. But would it be possible with the cash mobilization power of Count Putokoa, not the count of the empire?”

“If you don’t have cash, you can take it to the manor. If you mediate with the lords of the north, you can even get a commission.”

“Are you sure you can get the money?”

“That’s right.”

“It’s a big request, so I’ll take it from the presidency. Let the vice-chairman come up with a concrete plan.”

“The target is not even a sword master, but the presidency is excessive.”

“If you think about work, that is. At this point, let’s take a look at the Skutum (Ice Wall), which is said to be a legend of the north. You all wondered what it looked like, right?”

“All right.”

Eileen Rader was no longer against it.

Certainly, considering the imperial people’s fantasies about Scutum, it was clear that the members’ resistance would be weak.

***

and now.

At Anna Logan’s loud voice, the uninvited guests looked at each other with somewhat absurd faces.

Eventually, Wayne Casey, chairman of the Crescent, spoke in a calm tone.

“You have courage. I don’t know who the lady is, but I’ll give you a chance so go see it.”

Of course, it’s not because a woman’s courage is imaginary.

If Baron Helio Lagoa hadn’t noticed the assassins hiding in the distance, there would have been no conversation at all.

But now, Baron Helio Lagoa was bothered enough to want to remove even the slightest variable.

That’s why I told the woman with the magic gun to go.

Killing a woman can be done at any time if necessary.

“Isn’t it my me?”

Anna Logan could not hide her embarrassment at the unexpected words.

As the woman hesitated, Vice Chairman Eileen Rader stepped forward.

“Hey. miss. This is between us and Baron Helio Lagoa, so no third parties. By the way, it would be better to disappear when you don’t know who each other is.”

Anna Logan’s gaze turned to Baron Elio Lagoa.

“What shall I do, Baron? Ask for help and I will help you.”

Unexpectedly, unlike her innocent appearance, she was a member of the Seletus Knights and had a strong personality.

Elio was truly grateful for her kindness.

Anyone who saw her for the first time knew how good a person she was just by looking at her willingness to help herself, even though she was 13 years old.

Before answering, Elio telegraphed one of the uninvited guests.

– If you move, you die.

Homolka, who was about to throw a dagger at the stumpy woman, was startled.

People are far away, but whispering in your ears!

Besides, I don’t know how he found out about his secret movements.

Homolka gave up the ambush, and her shoulders drooped.

Then Elio said.

“Thank you for your words, but I will decline. You don’t know the way, so don’t go far and get back for a while.”

“Yeah…”

Anna Logan, quick-witted, didn’t insist and immediately stepped back.

As she walked away, Elio turned his attention to the uninvited guests.

“You talk as if you know me well, but what are they doing?”

Then Wayne Casey said with a wry smile.

“I met someone with great pride. It’s like watching the old Sir Clive Fraser.”

Clive Fraser was a sword master who lost his life to the Crescent twenty years ago.

Even then, Crescent was exposed to an ambush and bet on a head-to-head match, and was able to kill the opponent after a struggle.

“So who are you?”

To Elio’s repeated question, Wayne Casey said quietly.

“Ask Sir Clive Fraser about it.”

With those words as a signal, the six of them moved like lightning.

Wayne Casey, the chairman, moved to the left, and Eileen Radar, the vice chairman, moved to the right.

Charles Manson, the best man, fell behind, and Homolka Henry Gein blocked his way.

As in the assassination of sword master Clive Fraser twenty years ago, two warriors occupied the left and right, and the wizard took a seat in the rear.

Before long, the staff of Magus Charles Manson, the Warlock of the 7th Circle, headed for Elio.

“Sun burst!”

Kwagwang-!

A sudden explosion erupted around Elio’s body.

It really happened in the blink of an eye.

Sun burst is a 6 circle magic.

If it was like a normal swordsman, the situation would have left even after the body exploded.

Elio was also startled by the unexpected explosion.

But my body reacted before I thought.

Self-defense equipment protected him from the explosion.

‘Wow! It’s a surprise!’

Elio stuck his tongue out and pulled out the Cheondun Sword he was holding.

But before he could strike back, Magus Charles Manson’s second attack followed.

“Dark Spear!”

The Dark Spear assimilated into the darkness flew towards Elio.

write-.

It’s time for Elio to strike down the Dark Spear that has reached close range.

Suddenly, his body turned upside down.

Magus Charles Manson unleashed the magic of the 7th circle gravity reversal just in time.

Wayne Casey and Alan Raider, who had been looking for an opportunity on the left and right from earlier, rushed in like crazy.

Two long swords aimed at Elio’s upper and lower body, respectively.

Wayne Casey’s lips curled up slightly.

Contrary to my worries, seeing the flustered opponent, it seemed that the work would end quickly.

shhh! Shut-!

But what is this?

His and the vice-chairman’s longswords cut through the air in vain.

‘omg! What about him?’

Wayne Casey’s eyes widened as he hurriedly turned his head.

Elio Lagoa was standing behind Eileen Radar, the vice-chairman.

I thought at least one of the swords of myself and the vice-chairman would be blocked.

However, with gravity reversed, avoiding both the Dark Spear and the two swords, and instead launching a counterattack!

“damage!”

However, Eileen Rader, vice chairman, did not notice Elio’s heterogeneous status.

It was more so because it was not the skill of the other world swordsmen.

Elio hit the middle-aged woman on the waist with his sword blade.

Poo-!

Eileen’s radar flew away with a dull sound.

In that gap, Wayne Casey ran like the wind and swung his sword in the style of Corte Acello.

Corte Acello means ‘to cut steel’.

Befitting its ignorant name, it had the best destructive power on the continent.

Needless to say, the power of Corte Acello, which the sword expert Wayne Casey unleashed with the determination to kill, was unparalleled.

Shuaak-!

Elio blocked that ruthless sword attack with an indifferent face.

Zeng-!

A heavy yet clear sound echoed around.

Wayne Casey looked at the two crossed longswords in disbelief.

He was the first person to lightly block Corte Acello, who had put all his energy into it, with just one hand.

“Why is this…”

Elio, who stepped forward at the moment, hit the opponent’s face with the handle of his longsword.

‘evil!’ With a sound, Wayne Casey tumbled backwards.

At the same time as Wayne Casey collapsed, high-heat flames flew like a belt, aiming for Elio.

It was the flame magic Inferno of the 7th circle.

Elio did not try to block it, but lightly leaped into the air to avoid the flames.

Magus Charles Manson, the best man of the Crescent, gritted his teeth when Elio Lagoa avoided even Inferno.

A wizard’s magic is limited by mana.

If you use magic in the same circle three times, mana will be depleted.

Since I’ve already used 2 circle 7 magic and 2 circle 6 magic, the remaining chance is only one circle 6 magic.

However, can the opponent who easily knocked down two sword experts in the midst of the joint attack be able to subdue the 6th circle magic?

Magus Charles Manson, who concluded that he couldn’t do it, told the three assassins escorting him.

“Attack him.”

Homolka Henry Gein believed in the magician’s rear support and ran out without hesitation.

I knew it!

The three of them flew here and there like fallen leaves caught in a gale.

In the meantime, Magus Charles Manson quietly chanted a teleportation spell.

Woo woo-.

As the magical field formed in front of his eyes, Magus Charles Manson stepped into the magical field without delay.

As the wizard was about to disappear, Elio immediately threw his sword.

Shiiik-!

The sword of Cheondun, which flew like an arrow, pierced the magic field for an instant.

Unfortunately, however, the Chundun Sword could not nullify the teleport itself that had already been activated.

Elio, who retrieved the Cheondun Sword using the technique of the sword, clicked his tongue as if regretting it.

Looking at the blood on the blade, it looked like the cut had been cut, but since the wizard had disappeared, there was no way to know if he was dead or alive.

Elio gathered the fallen uninvited guests in one place and looked down with a puzzled expression.

‘What are these?’
