Episode 1137. Have you ever seen a lion retreat when a dog barks?
The great nobles of the Empire tend to look down on the kingdom, and Count Edgar Obidos was one of them.
In fact, the mention of ‘handling the back’ was just to make fun of the other person.
From the point of view of Count Edgar Obidos, a great aristocrat of the empire, the purpose of Count Larva Omar’s visit was an act of crossing the line.
It is absurd that the Count of the Northern Kingdom asked for an investigation saying ‘something illegal may be happening in the territory of the Count of the Empire’.
‘That’s because I believed the words of one of the beast girls.’
Count Edgar Obidos stared at Count Omar of Larva.
He naturally thought that the lord of the north would be flustered and at a loss.
Unexpectedly, however, the opponent did not seem particularly surprised.
On the contrary, he even asked as if interrogating.
“Did you collude with the Magic Tower?”
The question was so direct that Count Edgar Obidos was speechless.
When Count Edgar Obidos hesitated, the knight commander who was with him growled.
“Be careful with your words! You are standing not in the Kingdom of Baylem, but in the Imperial Count of Obidos!”
Count Larva Omar glanced at the knight past middle age.
The atmosphere is exactly that of a knight commander who accompanies the count.
The title should be high enough to be a viscount, but use the hao body for the count?
Knowing the atmosphere of the empire, I understood it mentally, but it was a little distasteful.
As a knight close to the sword master, it was uncomfortable to have a knight much lower than himself teasing his mouth.
‘Tsk! I’m still a long way off.’
He shook off unnecessary emotions and turned to Count Edgar Obidos.
The eyes of Count Edgar Obidos and Count Larva Omar met.
“This is where I got hit. I’ve heard rumors that the nobles of the north are rough and rude, but I see what you mean. Did you just ask me if I was with the Mage Tower? There is no such thing. All I had to do was sign a prisoner transfer contract with the Mage Tower and receive three magic guns. Is that enough of an answer?”
“Then please give me access to Miss Emily’s case records. Also, so that I can meet with the person in charge of the police force…”
“I can’t.”
“Why?”
“The Count seems to believe in the words of the Beasts, but I believe in the Mage Tower more than the Beasts. The Beasts and the Criminal’s Words Investigate the Security Guard and the Mage’s Tower? It’s impossible. It’s something that shouldn’t even happen.”
“If the documents are fabricated, the prisoner may not be a criminal but a victim of a crime.”
“Again, I believe in the police force and the mage tower more than the beastmen. stop going back I will not take issue with the disrespect the Count has done to me. With that alone, I think I have been merciful enough. Olaf? See off the guests.”
“yes.”
At the Count’s instruction, the Knight Commander Olaf Greed glanced at the waiting knights.
The ten knights standing on the wall of the hall slowly moved to the center.
The leader of the knights, Olaf Greed, also strode towards Count Larva Omar.
The Count of Obidos made a name for itself in the Imperial War fifty years ago.
Of course, the level of the knights was also considerable.
The Iron Knights of the county of Obidos had power within their fingers even in the Principality of Pommernburg.
The air in the central hall became heavy with the speculation emanating from the knight commander and the ten knights.
Fabian, a sword beginner, hurriedly turned the small heavenly circuit (small heavenly circuit) as the formidable pressure tightened his entire body.
Only then did my breath clear and my heart felt free.
Count Larva Omar, who was close to the Sword Master, did not panic like Fabian.
He stayed in place like a tower, unshakable.
To him, who is still a sword expert, the commander of the knights and ten knights are difficult opponents to face, but he believes in Viscount Elio Lagoa and endures.
Standing in front of Count Larva Omar, the commander of the knights, Viscount Olaf Greed, spoke forcefully.
“Count? I need you to leave.”
“Have you ever seen a lion retreat when a dog barks?”
“Even wolves can hunt lions when they form a pack. Please step back when it’s nice.”
It’s easy to fall for sewers or provocations.
Viscount Olaf Greed, an Intermediate Sword Expert, responded flexibly with a ‘wolf’ instead of a ‘dog’.
Count Larva Omar laughed.
“You might be a wolf. But the person behind me is not a lion, but a war god.”
For a moment, Viscount Olaf Greed glanced behind Count Larva Omar’s back.
‘Are you talking about a young man named Viscount Elio Lagoa?’
However, even if he received the blessing of mana inside his mother’s womb, considering his age, his whole body was unreasonable.
Even more, what I felt from him was aura, not mana.
“Are you kidding me in this situation? You don’t think that the whole body is a title given to a spiritual practitioner?”
Elio stretched out at the Knight Commander’s mockery.
“Aww! tired tired Get behind the Count for a bit.”
“yes.”
Count Omar of Larva retreated behind Viscount Elio Lagoa without saying a word.
For a moment, not only Count Edgar Obidos, but also Viscount Olaf Greed, the leader of the knights, couldn’t help but be surprised.
It was because the count of the kingdom was following the instructions of the viscount, the lord of the north.
Either that or not, Elio said while looking at the knight commander.
“Because I am from a savage tribe, I learned aura. Any complaints?”
At the word that he was from a savage tribe, Knight Commander Olaf Greed frowned.
This is because the empire treats barbarians the most on the continent.
“I am not interested in what you have learned. It seems that he was given a title for his insignificant talent, but it does not work in the empire. Back away when you talk.”
“What if I don’t back down? Can you force me out?”
The knight commander, who fell for Elio’s provocation, pulled out his sword.
“I have already warned you several times! Since you disobeyed the imperial lord’s order to leave, I will arrest you and hold the king of Baylem responsible!”
“I received a title in the Kingdom of Escatos?”
“Then the King of Escatos must be held accountable.”
“Either way. But who should I ask to blame you for your faults?”
“joy! If you have connections, make a petition to His Highness, Duke of Pommernburg. There won’t be any chance for that. Draw your sword.”
Still, as a knight, Viscount Olaf Greed gave the opponent a chance to draw his sword.
Elio slowly drew his sword.
“I’ll tell you in advance, but when I pull out a knife, I just don’t put it in. you have to cut something What do you have to cut to spread rumors that you cut well?”
Along with the words, Elio pushed the aura into the tip of the sword.
Ugh-!
An aura blade extended from the tip of the sword.
Elio lightly swung his sword once as if joking around.
Aww-!
The back wall of the central hall was cracked by the extended aura blade.
Soon after, the bricks collapsed through the cracks and the castle shook lightly.
Quarrrrr—!
Seeing the power of the aura blade, Viscount Olaf Greed’s face went white.
That is the power of a sword master no matter who sees it.
In the event of a fight, the Sword Expert Intermediate and ten knights would be slain in one blow.
He hurriedly turned to his master, Count Edgar Obidos.
“Count?”
Count Edgar Obidos was also surprised, but quickly calmed down.
Although he was a sword expert, he had two sword masters in the Duchy of Pommernburg.
“If you don’t want a war between the Empire and the Kingdom of Escatos, stop!”
However, Elio heard that and fired his Aura blade once more.
The eastern wall cracked, and the castle shook more noisily this time.
Quarreureung! Quarre-!
The faces of Count Edgar Obidos and the Iron Knights went white.
As the castle shook as if it were about to collapse, Fabian was also restless.
“Viscount. Calm down! Everyone will die like this!”
“Who says death is about to die? It’s tough.”
Contrary to what he said, he must have been a little nervous, and Elio retracted his aura.
And Edgar looked up at Count Obidos and said.
“We decided to ask each other for responsibility later, so how? Are you willing to cooperate? Also, if you believe in the mage tower rather than the security guard… then the castle will be destroyed. If I swing it two more times, it will collapse.”
Count Edgar Obidos gnashed his teeth internally, but did not show it.
It was because it would take 10 days to ask for help from the Prince of Parma-Pomernburg and his knight commander, and it would take 10 days for an answer to come.
“The knight commander will guide you to the police station. Viscount Olaf Greed guides the guests and cooperates with the security forces.”
“yes!”
The leader of the Knights, Olaf Greed, who wielded the lead sword, was a face that had been brought back to life.
Count Edgar Obidos turned his gaze to Viscount Elio Lagoa.
“Is that enough? If you don’t want anything more, I’d like you to leave.”
“no. It would have been nice if it came out cooperatively right away. I came from far away to help others, splitting my free time.”
Count Edgar Obidos didn’t reply and just shook his head inwardly.
‘By the time the King’s Highness or the Knight Commander arrives, they must have already left… In the end, should I go to the Tabula Magic Tower?’
It’s embarrassing that the Taboola Magic Tower provided the cause of this sadal, but that was the best.
When Count Edgar Obidos, wounded in pride, planned revenge, Elio and his party left the central hall with the knight commander.
***
County of Obidos.
police.
The head of the security forces, Baron Mark Dwayne, hurriedly came out to meet the unexpected visit of the Knights Commander Olaf Greed.
“What are you doing here, Commander of the Knights?”
“How many prisoners have the police sent to the Mage Tower so far?”
“All I did was send one two years ago.”
“We want our guests to see the records of the prisoner. bring it.”
“yes. Would you like to go inside?”
Baron Mark Dwayne led the Knight Commander and his party to his office.
Elio’s party and the knight commander sat face-to-face across the table.
Viscount Olaf Greed couldn’t keep his eyes on him as if he was awkward.
Has it been like 10 minutes?
Baron Mark Dwayne returned with some papers.
“Here it is.”
He first handed over the documents to the knight commander.
After checking the prisoner’s name, the knight commander handed it over to Viscount Elio Lagoa.
“Is that Emily?”
“that’s right.”
Elio, who was reading the paperwork, stared at the chief of the security guard.
“What’s that name?”
“I am Baron Mark Dwayne.”
“It was the wizards who arrested Baron Emily, not the Peace Corps?”
“I witnessed a murder on the way and arrested the criminal and handed him over to the police. Lucky for you. If it hadn’t been for them, they would have been buried.”
“So you happened to witness the murder of a twelve-year-old girl on the street and arrested him? Did the mages make up the family of the forest keeper who was said to have been murdered?”
“yes.”
“A 12-year-old girl murdered the forest ranger’s family?”
“According to the testimony of the wizards, a young prisoner commanded a wolf and bit it to death. If you had seen the corpse, you would have thought it was killed by an animal.”
“You wouldn’t have seen the body anyway. Because wizards wear makeup.”
“That’s right.”
“Did the trial go through?”
“The identity of the eyewitness is certain… and the culprit is a prisoner… so there was no trial. Usually, it’s a summary execution, but the wizards handed it over because they wanted it.”
“Did the prisoner confess that he killed him?”
“that… Maybe they don’t know the common language of the continent, but they only say things that I can’t understand… But since the wizards witnessed it, shouldn’t we assume it’s for sure?”
