Heavenly Inquisition Sword Chapter 1177

Episode 1177. At that time, the Marquis will have to help.

‘Investigate Benzel,’ Countess Keisa Coldwall asked with a puzzled face.

“Is there any reason why you think so?”

“Didn’t you see Lord Benzel rejecting my offer? If she were an ordinary commoner, she would have known and accepted it as an honor.”

“It could be a woman with strong assertiveness.”

Then Marquis Gosling Knauf shook his head excitedly.

“The dream of commoners is to become nobles. Knights and wizards are the surest path to becoming nobles. But why not take a faster and more convenient way? That’s the story of the legend of the heroes. There is no such person in real life. Besides, Benzel’s face has dignity. If I had met her at the banquet hall of the island, I would have thought she was a lady from an aristocratic family.”

“It is. Let’s find out in detail.”

In front of the ‘reality’ and ‘grace’ that the Marquis had mentioned, Count Keitha Coldwall nodded her head coolly.

“Oh, and when do you think the northern nobles will come back?”

“I’m predicting to be back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”

“Do you believe them?”

“Are you saying that ‘the person behind the crack in the Skutum (Ice Wall) went to Celestial Star’?”

“Yes.”

“It is true that the Warlocks have created a rift in Scutum. However, it is difficult to agree with the part that there is Magnum Ops behind it and that he returned to the Celestial Star.”

“Why?”

“The Magnum Ops is more difficult than Grand Master. At least, there were people who were on the lookout for Grand Masters, such as His Excellency’s father, Archduke Hannes Knauf. But not wizards. No mage has reached the 8th circle yet. Magnum opps? There is a process to everything. Magnum Ops is a one-sided statement that ignores the process. What about perforation? Isn’t it a place whose existence has not even been confirmed for thousands of years?”

“So you’re saying the warlock lied? Or do the northern nobles have other purposes?”

The eyes of the Marquis Gosling Knauf, who had been arguing with women like a horny man, changed sharply.

Frankly, he hoped it would be the latter.

The Grand Duchess of Knauf is the most famous aristocratic family on the continent.

In the Imperial War, Archduke Hannes Knauf defeated the kingdom’s sword masters and was called the Grand Master.

Following him, the eldest son, Archduke Kaiser Knauf, and the second son, Marquis Gosling Knauf, all became sword masters.

Archduke Kaiser Knauf, the commander of the imperial knights, is evaluated by the public as superior to his father, Archduke Hannes Knauf.

On the other hand, the Marquis of Gosling Knauf was obscured by the shadow of the grand duke and had a weak presence, and to make matters worse, he revealed his female color, becoming the epitome of ‘there is no younger brother like an older brother’.

Of course, Marquis Gosling Knauf thought he was nothing worse than his older brother.

In front of the Marquis’ question, Count Keitha Coldwall hesitated for a moment.

He knew why Marquis Gosling Knauf had been following the task force.

On the outside, it was said to be ‘to fulfill the duties of an imperial knight’, but the inside will be different.

The Imperial family speculates that Viscount Elio Lagoa is a knight close to the Grand Master.

The purpose of Marquis Gosling Knauf joining the special task force is obvious without asking.

‘By subduing Viscount Helio Lagoa, he must want to prove that he is a swordsman comparable to Archduke Kaiser Knauf.’

Did the imperial family not know what they knew?

no.

Perhaps the imperial family was planning to confirm the status of Viscount Elio Lagoa through the Marquis.

Otherwise, the sudden joining of the marquis would not be explained.

But you can’t just walk away without thinking about it.

As a member of the Imperial Inspection Department, he had to obtain the desired result.

“The testimony of the black magicians must be true. It must have been confirmed with mind magic.”

“Are the testimonies about magnum ops and perforation true?”

“Yes, there is no doubt that at least the warlocks knew that. But that doesn’t mean that the one who manipulated the warlocks was Magnum Opps or that he went to Celestial Star.”

“You mean that it’s possible that the person behind it lied to the warlocks?”

“That’s right.”

“Then what about the northern nobles?”

“Right now, it’s half and half. It may have been after the warlocks, or it may have come for a different purpose.”

As the conversation whirled around and returned to the starting point, Marquis Gosling Knauf frowned.

“Is the Inspection Department always so vague?”

“The reason we came all the way here during the war is to find out the truth.”

A bitter smile appeared on Marquis Gosling Knauf’s face.

To find out the truth, there is no choice but to press down through conversation or force.

In the end, you pretend not to be and push yourself on the back.

‘Are you going to get the results you want while avoiding responsibility? Indeed, the inspection department.’

“What if the other person doesn’t vomit the truth enough to convince Kyung?”

“At that time, the Marquis will have to help.”

“My rhetoric is splendid, but it doesn’t always work. You also saw it a little while ago. To be rejected even by commoners.”

Marquis Gosling Knauf did not drag on as the opponent hoped.

Thus, the two engaged in a light war of nerves over the issue of dealing with the northern nobility.

***

“It’s a whale!”

In the top castle, lookout sailor Thoth pointed to the right side and shouted.

However, neither the sailors nor the northern nobility reacted.

Thoth squatted down again with a frown on his face.

‘damn! It’s boring, boring.’

I think I know why Wright dozes off.

All the northern nobles wanted was an extreme weather phenomenon.

But the Sea of Demons was peaceful.

I can’t even understand why the word sea of demons came about.

It’s been eight days since we started sailing, but it was quiet except for a brief fog at dawn a few days ago.

The northern nobles would lament their bad luck, but the weather was truly blessed for the sailors.

under the canopy of the prow.

Fabian glanced at Viscount Elio Lagoa.

“Have you ever seen a whale, Viscount?”

“What is a whale? Is it a fish?”

“A fish is a fish, but it is a very big fish.”

“How big is it?”

“There are many bigger ones than the magic sailboat we rode on.”

“okay? Any news of fog or dark clouds?”

“doesn’t exist.”

When Elio stopped paying attention to the whale, Fabian stopped talking.

Elio looked at the calm sea and murmured.

“Was it just a rumor?”

“What?”

“The sea of demons. Two voyages, but nothing happened. Is it a story made up by sailors?”

Right now, even the crew of the magic sailboat did not believe in the sea of demons.

“Trust the records of the Mage Tower. If that was a made-up story, wizards wouldn’t have been trying for a long time to find the Celestial Star.”

“Is that right? But why don’t extreme weather events appear?”

“They will show up when the time is right.”

“I’m fed up with that bastard. just show up I just…”

Elio gnashed his teeth.

As his eyes turned red, Fabian slipped away.

In the end, nothing happened until that night.

Captain Althelm approached Elio and the others after dinner.

“Tomorrow we have to return. Can I turn the boat around in the morning?”

Then Fabian asked again.

“You mean you’re going to turn the boat around in the morning instead of in the evening?”

“A rat died because the lid of the drinking water container was left open. I think we need to hurry a little.”

“Who would do such a stupid thing…

.”

“I get it. Give the sailors a sharp warning. I’ll take care of it this time, but if the same thing happens on the next voyage… I won’t let it go.”

“Yes, I will make sure it doesn’t happen again.”

The captain, who had been bowing down, returned.

Fabian said to Elio, who was looking at the night sea with a dejected face.

“Still, I’m glad it’s the last day. If the rat had drowned on the first day, I would have had to go back without moving. Isn’t it?”

“Tell the captain. If it happens again next time, I will feed all the water crew.”

“All right.”

Fabian thought that Viscount Helio Lagoa would be a man who would still be able to do so.

the next morning.

The magic sailboat turned its bow toward the port of Hades early on.

Then Captain Althelm called the crew to the deck and shouted.

“Drinking water is life in the sea! Last night, some idiot didn’t close the lid of the water bottle, so the mouse drowned! This is my first time, so I’ll just skip it! But the second is unforgivable! If you die of a rat again next time, the nobles of the north will drink all of that water for you! So, if you don’t want to drink dirty water, take care of it!”

The sailors could not even make a sound while watching the northern nobles.

Even if it wasn’t, the heavy sailing atmosphere went down completely to the bottom due to contamination of drinking water.

***

Fiestra.

Hades port.

At sunset, a horse-powered sailboat appeared on the horizon.

A handyman who was carrying loads at the port quickly ran somewhere.

After a while, the articles of the special task force rushed to the port.

They lined up in an orderly manner under the command of their staff, Viscount Colin Mescal.

On one side, port officials kicked the fishermen out of the harbor.

After a while, a magical sailboat entered the port occupied by the special task force’s knights.

As soon as we docked at the mooring, the crew rushed down.

The crew of the sailboat was sent away by the port officials.

Finally, Elio and the others got off the ship.

When the northern nobles got off the ship, the waiting task force quickly approached.

Before long, Viscount Colin Mezcal, the staff member of the task force, greeted us with a nervous expression.

“hello? It’s from the Imperial Inspectorate. I am Viscount Colin Mescal.”

Then, Fabian responded on behalf of the party.

“We are the nobility of the north. It looks like you’ve been waiting for us. Is there anything going on?”

“Are you Baron Fabian Cloud by any chance?”

“yes.”

“Countess Kaysa Coldwall, the head of the task force of the Inspection Department, wants to meet Countess Larva Omar and Viscount Elio Lagoa. Are the people behind the honor the Count and Viscount?”

“That’s right.”

Fabian said yes, but did not move away.

It’s because I still haven’t heard what the task force commander came for.

Finally, when Fabian refused to back down, Viscount Colin Mescal turned his head backwards.

It was only then that Countess Keitha Coldwall stepped out with a reluctant face.

“I am Countess Kaysa Coldwall of the Imperial Inspection Department. I have come to meet Count Omar and Viscount Lagoa, so get out of the way.”

Fabian couldn’t hold on any longer at the Count’s sharp eyes and slipped to the side.

The gazes of Count Keitha Coldwall and Count Larva Omar met in the air.

Countess Kaysa Coldwall intuitively knew that her opponent was equal to her.

‘At least I won’t lose to the count.’

The sword master recognizes the sword master.

Count Larva Omar was similar to or slightly weaker than himself.

He naturally turned his gaze to Viscount Elio Lagoa.

‘huh?’

I feel a huge amount of aura, but that’s it.

When you meet a prosecutor, you can feel whether he is strong or weak, but Viscount Elio Lagoa seemed to be seeing a normal person.

While Count Larva Omar made people a little nervous, Viscount Elio Lagoa was comfortable enough to be alert.

If he was at this level, he might feel more disrespectful of Marquis Gosling Knauf.

just as expected?

The eyes of Marquis Gosling Knauf, who turned around slightly, drew an arc.
