Episode 1074. Can I leap as high as the baron?
Even in the same northern kingdom, the colors of the Raminov and Escatos royal families were very different. If the Raminov family was from the north, the Escatos family was from the central region.
If the nobility of the north, which had a cold climate, was generally hot-tempered and straightforward, the nobles of the central region, which had a mild climate, were a little more friendly than that.
Viscount Molart Mir, leader of the Flame Knights, who has a rough temperament unique to northerners and even a hot-tempered personality, began to swear at Baron Maxim Chekhov.
‘What’s going on?’
Baron Maxim Chekhov was in a stupor, but recovered with his familiar movements.
Viscount Molart Mir went out before Baron Maxim Chekhov was fully dressed.
Baron Maxim Chekhov hurriedly followed him.
Viscount Molart Mir seemed to be quite excited, and white steam gushed out from his nostrils.
Viscount Molat Mir, who was walking briskly, suddenly turned his head to see Baron Maxim Chekhov.
“You bastard! Are you Escatos’ spy?”
“omg! me? no! My father even received a medal in battle with the Escatos Kingdom.”
“Just because a father is a hero does not mean that the son is also a hero. If you have anything to do with Escatos, I will peel off your skin alive.”
“I’ve never met people from the Kingdom of Escatos…”
Baron Maxim Chekhov blurted out his words.
It was because he remembered the conversation he had with the baron of Escatos Kingdom at the reception hall this evening.
When Viscount Molat Mir’s breathing became rough, Baron Maxim Chekhov hurriedly continued.
“This is the first time we met at the reception hall this evening. I didn’t even have a seat with them.”
“Then why are you doing such crazy things!”
Viscount Molart Mir roared.
Baron Maxim Chekhov asked cautiously, not knowing why the knight commander was angry.
“Come on, Viscount. What is this madness?”
“Why did you quarrel with Baron Helio Lagoa! There are five nobles who witnessed your madness. Will you say no?”
“I was just pointing out his rudeness, not an argument. Rather, I endured and endured for the sake of the harmony of the three countries… ugh!”
Baron Maxim Chekhov, who had been kicked in the shin by the knight commander, collapsed on the spot.
It was too much for a sword beginner to handle the kick that the sword expert kicked with all his might.
But that was just the beginning.
The foot of the knight commander struck the shoulder of Baron Maxim Chekhov, who was squatting.
Baron Maxim Chekhov’s body rolled backwards from the powerful blow.
Baron Maxim Chekhov couldn’t come to his senses from the continuous beatings.
Still, Baron is the company commander of Natsala Company, but I don’t know what this is.
Viscount Molart Mir rushed at Baron Maxim Chekhov, who was moaning.
It’s just going to kill me like this.
Before Viscount Molat Mir could reach Baron Maxim Chekhov, the vice-captain jumped in and hugged him from behind.
“Captain! Be patient! The Count is waiting for Baron Chekhov.”
“Let go! They said sticks are medicine for madmen! A guy like that needs to be right to come to his senses!”
“If the captain hits you, you die. Do you intend to kill Baron Chekhov?”
Only then did Viscount Molart Mir relax.
When he calmed down, the vice-captain let him go and approached Baron Maxim Chekhov.
“Get up. The Count, please find the sir.”
Baron Maxim Chekhov asked with a puzzled face.
“Sir Ratman. I don’t know why I’m doing this. Is it because of the argument in the reception hall today?”
“Right.”
“Is Baron Elio Lagoa royalty?”
Baron Maxim Chekhov looked at Vice-captain Baron Bachelet Letman with eyes that he could not understand.
Considering the uncomfortable relationship between the kingdom of Raminoff and the kingdom of Escatos – even if he is a member of the royal family – it is normal when there is no one to criticize him.
“There is no royal family in Escatos who uses the surname of Lagoa.”
“But why?”
Viscount Molart Mir, who had been suppressing his emotions behind him, suddenly intervened.
“Everything is the trick of the Escatos Kingdom. You guys were playing around in that farmhouse. Unless you’re a spy, of course.”
“Again, I am not a spy! What the hell is going on?”
The knight commander kept his mouth shut as if he didn’t want to say anything more.
The vice-captain explained on his behalf.
“The Kingdom of Escatos did not hand over all information about Hirhera to us. No, I should say I handed over all but one.”
“What is one?”
“The one who defeated the sword master, the guardian of Hirhera, the rift knight Untouchable. It was a reference to only one person. The Kingdom of Escatos did not inform us of that.”
‘omg!’
Baron Maxim Chekhov’s mouth fell open.
I thought it was simply royalty, but it seems that Baron Julie Greenwood’s words were true.
“And at the reception, Baron Chekhov made a fuss with him. To Baron Helio Lagoa, who can control the hegemony of the continent.”
“….”
The leader of the Knights of Molat Mir let out a saliva in his mouth, saying, ‘Put!’ spit it out and said
“Baron Lagoa is the strongest swordsman who single-handedly defeated the demon troops. In other words, his active cooperation is essential in order to survive in Hirhera. But only sword beginners fight in front of nobles? That’s why I think of you as an agent of the Escatos Kingdom. There’s no reason to do such crazy things unless you’re instigated by them.”
Belatedly, Baron Maxim Chekhov found out why the knight commander was accusing him of being a spy.
It was only natural that the kingdom of Raminof was swayed by the will of the kingdom of Escatos, who wanted it to perish.
“Please trust me, Viscount. I was not instigated by Escatos.”
“Then why did you do such a crazy thing? Why did you go to the baron of Lagoa who was still and quarrel with him?”
“I just did it because I wanted to win the favor of Baron Julie Greenwood, whom I met there. If I had known that Baron Lagoa was like that, I wouldn’t have gone near him.”
“Baron Julie Greenwood?”
“Yes, this is a female knight from the Kingdom of Baylem, whom I met at the reception hall.”
“You quarreled with Baron Lagoa to buy the favor of the female knight? You want me to believe that nonsense?”
As emotions boiled over, the knight commander rolled his fists again.
Baron Maxim Chekhov, who was startled by the sharpness, hurriedly continued his explanation.
“By acting like Baron Julie Greenwood has a crush on Baron Lagoa… I wanted to show that I am a better knight than Baron Lagoa.”
Abusive words flowed from the mouth of the knight commander who looked at Baron Maxim Chekhov with absurd eyes.
“Crazy.”
However, unlike the harsh curse, his expression was noticeably relaxed.
Most of the nobles acted that way, so they were convinced.
After a while, the Knight Commander and Vice Commander left, taking Natsala Company Commander with them.
***
Baron Maxim Chekhov wasn’t the only one summoned by the nobles that night.
Even Baron Julie Greenwood had to be summoned by the nobles all night long to explain what had happened.
In the case of Baron Julie Greenwood, unlike Baron Maxim Chekhov, he was treated quite politely.
Hirhera Baylem Kingdom Army Garrison.
Knights of Seletus.
Around three in the morning, Baron Julie Greenwood was able to return to the Templar barracks.
A sigh escaped Baron Julie Greenwood’s mouth as she collapsed on the cot.
“ha!”
It’s a pretty tiring day.
It is the first time that it has attracted the attention of the great nobility.
I didn’t know that the aftermath of serving Baron Helio Lagoa’s meal would be so great.
It was just peeled shrimp and coated with crayfish flesh, but that’s about it.
‘Maybe more Anna Logan?’
Unlike himself, she was learning something from Baron Elio Lagoa.
‘That’s why Duke Herbert Liberato must have supported Prince Lee.’
It was very sad to think about it.
If Anna Logan had heard the story of Baron Lagoa and had taken an active role, Prince I, not Prince Lee, could have become the heir to the throne.
If that were the case, the Countess of Greenwood would have stood at the center of the social world of Baylem Kingdom.
‘ha! I wish I could go back to the past. Then I’ll take Anna Logan’s place.’
Baron Julie Greenwood, who continued her delusion, fell asleep unable to overcome the flood of thoughts.
next day.
Baron Julie Greenwood waited and dressed up, thinking she might be called around again, but that didn’t happen.
Like a lie, interest in her disappeared overnight.
The nobles of Baylem Kingdom sought Anna Logan, the vice-captain of the Seletus Knights.
It was around sunset when Julie Greenwood learned why.
She called one of the knights as the knights were suddenly fixated on repairing the magic gun.
“Is today the day of the magic gun test?”
“no.”
“Then why are you cleaning so hard? You didn’t do that during the day.”
“Did you not hear the news?”
“What news?”
“The Escatos Kingdom army is monitoring the rift, right? But it’s already been seven days since the demon has not been seen. I asked the garrison troops to be extra careful, saying that it seems to be a precursor to the invasion of demons in the Escatos Kingdom.”
“Is it a precursor to the invasion of demons?”
“Yeah, that’s why everyone is like that. There are many members who wrote wills.”
“i get it.”
When Baron Julie Greenwood gestured, the members bowed their heads and returned to their seats.
Thinking about something, Baron Julie Greenwood jumped up from her seat.
One regret is enough.
She thought this was her last chance to reach Baron Elio Lagoa.
***
Hirhera Escatos Kingdom Army Garrison.
Marquis Bernardo camp.
As usual, Elio, who was reading a mana development book in the barracks, closed the book.
Soon after, Fabian’s voice came from outside the barracks.
“Squadron commander. Sir Anna Logan came to visit.”
“Ask them to come in.”
After a while, Anna Logan entered the barracks and nodded.
Elio, who was staring at her with his clenched hands on the table, asked.
“Are you successful?”
Anna Logan was saddened by his attitude as if he had built an iron wall, but did not show it.
“yes.”
Anna Logan replied with strength.
She intended to match herself to Baron Elio Lagoa’s pace.
“It was difficult, but congratulations on succeeding. Then we move on to the next step.”
Elio taught her the secret alms.
It’s clear that he wouldn’t even be able to understand the rules anyway, so he just told me to put mana into the soles of my feet (Yongcheonhyeol).
“…All you have to do is put your eyes in front of you and your arms next to your torso and release mana while running. Then you will be able to fly swallows.”
“ah! Swallow Flying! Will I be able to leap as high as the baron?”
“I think it is possible.”
Looking at Fabian’s dragon fly and dragon sword, there was a high possibility that she would also learn the secret alchemy.
“Wow!”
At Elio’s words, Anna Logan clapped her hands and liked it.
Seeing her like that, Elio smiled.
“Then let’s go outside and demonstrate.”
Elio got up and walked away, and Anna Logan hurriedly followed him.
