Heavenly Inquisition Sword Chapter 1187

Episode 1187. Have you ever seen nobles obey the law?

Hades port.

sea breeze tavern.

Someone lightly grabbed the shoulder of Baron Juan Casas, who was sleeping deeply late at night, and shook him.

“Grunt! who…?”

Baron Juan Casas forced his eyes open and looked up at his opponent.

“Viscount?”

Viscount Colin Mescal raised his index finger to his lips, signaling for silence.

Juan Casa, the baron, knew that something important had happened and hurriedly got out of bed.

After a while, Viscount Colin Mezcal and Baron Juan Casas set out on a sea breeze tavern.

Viscount Colin Mescal said nothing and walked towards the port.

Baron Juan Casas silently followed his lead.

Viscount Colin Mezcal, standing in front of the breakwater where the waves crashed, waved his hand at Baron Juan Casas.

“Come closer.”

“yes.”

As Baron Juan Casas took a step forward, Viscount Colin Mezcal looked left and right and spoke in a low voice.

“The work at the tavern last time naturally went well. The Marquis was very satisfied.”

“thank you.”

In the midst of the greeting, Baron Juan Casas examined the complexion of Viscount Colin Mescal.

It was according to the order that the knights of the Boris Knights quarreled and caused a fight.

For that, William, a knight of the Order of Boris, was hanged.

But it probably wasn’t just to say that.

“Do you know what will happen at the port tomorrow, longitude?”

“Are you referring to the duel between His Excellency the Marquis and Viscount Lagoa?”

“It is not a duel.”

“It’s not a duel?”

Baron Juan Casas’ eyes widened.

All nobles in Fiestra know it as a duel, isn’t it?

Could it be that the duel was canceled?

“Yes. It is a battle, not a duel.”

“A battle?”

Baron Juan Casas looked at Viscount Colin Mezcal with a bewildered face.

I don’t know why a one-on-one duel is called a battle with no limit on numbers.

“It is a battle that His Excellency the Marquis must win for the future of the empire. By any chance, if the Marquis is defeated by Viscount Lagoa, it will give a false signal to the Northern Kingdom, which could lead to an expansion of the front line. So for our task force, tomorrow’s fight is a battle.”

“Ah yes…”

Baron Juan Casas replied in an awkward tone.

If nothing else, I knew that the Marquis must win in tomorrow’s duel.

But I don’t know why he’s telling such a story to himself, who is only a baron.

“We need your cooperation in tomorrow’s battle.”

“Would I, as a mere beginner in swords, be of any help to the sword masters’ fight?”

“Your shooting skills will be of great help.”

“It’s a shameful statement, but magic bullets don’t work on sword masters.”

“Do you have anything in common?”

“Yes? Is there such a thing?”

To his surprise, Baron Juan Casas’ voice rose a little.

“Turn your voice down. The reason I brought you all this way is to keep it a secret.”

“yes. sorry. I heard a very unexpected story… But is there really such a thing?”

“During the Imperial War, the Mage Tower developed a magic bullet to assassinate the Sword Master of the Northern Kingdom. That’s the magic bullet called excitium. However, the war ended before excitium was supplied, and excitium died.”

“Ah…”

Viscount Colin Mescal took out a golden bullet about a hand’s length from his bosom and held it out to Baron Juan Casas.

Baron Juan Casas, who took the axitium without hesitation, had a dry saliva going down his throat.

“Does His Excellency the Marquis know?”

“You don’t know yet.”

“Is it okay for a third party to interfere in the duel of the Marquis without permission? If the Marquis gets angry over that…”

“The person who ordered this is the Special Operations Commander. So, the responsibility lies with the commander-in-chief. Your mission is one. If you think the Marquis will be defeated, use Excitium.”

“…”

“The answer?”

“All right.”

Baron Juan Casas eventually accepted the order.

It was cowardly, but he also agreed that ‘Viscount Lagoa must die in order not to give a false signal to the Northern Kingdom’.

***

Next morning.

Elio got up leisurely as usual and went downstairs.

As if they had been waiting, Fabian and Larva Count Omar welcomed him.

Elio sat across from the two of them and trembled.

“What are you waiting for? Eat first.”

“I said yes, but the Count said he had to wait. Count, what did I say? Because the Viscount doesn’t like things like this.”

Fabian grunted and moved the dish from the table to his plate.

Count Larva Omar said with a laugh.

“Not for Lord Lagoa. Do you know that days like today are common? We cannot just let a day go down in history.”

At the Count’s words, Fabian said ‘Ah!’ and exclaimed.

It was belatedly that he realized what the duel of the Grand Duchess of Knauf meant.

Fabian looked at Count Omar of Larva with new eyes.

It’s because he’s a great nobleman, so he thinks differently.

Elio said when Fabian envied Count Omar of Larva.

“Can’t you see the task force in Tavern?”

Usually one or two people spent time in the tavern, but now the seeds have dried up.

Considering that the special task force’s lodging was the Sea Breeze Tavern, this was a rare occurrence.

“I’m afraid I’m avoiding the Viscount before the duel.”

“Do you have any other plans?”

“The Marquis of Ey Knauf is different from the Count of Putokoa. The name of the Grand Duchess of Knauf is at stake. Is this a scheme? Absolutely not.”

“Or not.”

“The Viscount always said ‘or not’ if he wasn’t confident?”

“Should I be so demeaning to think strategically and tactically?”

“Where is the tactical strategy in a one-on-one duel? It’s a river-to-river collision. The stronger one wins. isn’t it? Count?”

When Elio objected, Fabian quickly enlisted Count Omar of Larva.

But Count Larva Omar’s answer was a little different.

“If you only look at the duel between Lord Lagoa and the Marquis of Knauf, you are right. However, the head of the task force is not the Marquis of Knauf, but the Countess of Kaysa Coldwall. You cannot equate the task force with the Marquis of Knauf.”

“Does that mean the task force could stab the Viscount in the back?”

“It’s not impossible, but it probably isn’t. If you interfere with the Knauf Grand Duchess’ duel, the aftermath will be severe.”

Then Fabian raised his chin stiffly and said,

“Did you hear? The Count also says that the Special Forces will not attack you in the back. It seems that the Viscount has a lot of doubts compared to his swordsmanship skills.”

“Understand. Originally, I am the one who knocks on a stone bridge before crossing it.”

“That’s what they say. The Viscount will soon become a great nobleman, so raise your distribution. He’s a grand master in swordsmanship, but his heart is…”

Fabian tried to say, ‘Your mind is not as good as that of a sword beginner’, but ended up saying that.

No matter how casually he got along with Viscount Elio Lagoa, it didn’t seem like that.

Elio, who couldn’t hold back his curiosity, sighed at the words.

“What is your heart? How?”

“You have a great mindset to prepare for anything.”

“Isn’t that the way you talk?”

As the two passed the time by nonsense, Sally came over.

“If it’s a special task force, they’re guarding the gallows.”

“already? There are still three hours left until the duel?”

Seeing Fabian stare at him with a bewildered face, Celie spoke a little more closely.

“Not only the task force, but also the knights have been blocking access to the port since morning. Ordinary citizens won’t even go near the arena.”

An exclamation escaped Elio’s lips.

“Hey! The prestige of the Marquis of Knauf is great. You mean you don’t know the outcome of the duel? If you lose anyway, you’ll be exposed, right?”

“That is a little strange.”

Fabian also tilted his head.

Since it was a duel between the Grand Duchess of Knauf, they thought they would control the area around the arena, but they didn’t know that they would even block access to the port.

Count Larva Omar opened his mouth cautiously.

“Sir Lagoa, may I meet with the task force and ask him a little about why?”

“no. Leave it to you to do as you please. If a fight breaks out, control and everything else will be meaningless.”

Hiding a fight that might destroy the harbor?

It was like saying ‘I will cover the sky with the palm of my hand’.

When Elio was drinking tea with his friends after dinner, Benzel came looking for the Sea Breeze Tavern.

However, Elio only exchanged greetings briefly and did not offer her a vacant seat.

Sally pulled Benzel by the collar, who was standing there with a puzzled face.

“Would you like to come over for a second, Mr. Benzel?”

“uh? That’s right.”

Shelley led Benzel out the back door.

It wasn’t until they reached the chicken coop that Sally let go of Benzel’s collar.

“why?”

“Why? It was embarrassing to see, so I brought him out.”

“ha! I see. thank you.”

Benzel let out a sigh of relief belatedly.

In fact, it was because it was hard to stand blankly next to Viscount Elio Lagoa, who was indifferent to himself.

Benzel, who had been kicking the ground with his toe, asked as if belatedly thinking about it.

“Isn’t Viscount Lagoa saying anything?”

“They have been talking about duels since morning. I told you that the Templars block access to the port and that the task force controls the gallows.”

“Then what did you say?”

“It seemed like he was telling me to do whatever he wanted. Do you think Viscount Lagoa is not afraid of the Marquis of Knauf? Do you have no liver?”

“Foot! If you don’t have a liver, you’re already dead.”

Benzel laughed at Sally’s absurd words.

“But last night I went out to the port and heard strange rumors.”

“What rumors?”

“The sailors say that Viscount Lagoa flew over the stormy sea.”

“Ah, that’s not it.”

“Really. He met a storm and fell into the sea, but Viscount Lagoa rescued him. After that, the sailors say they can’t even see Viscount Lagoa or something?”

“really?”

“It’s really real. How could a person do that? Have you ever heard of a knight like Viscount Lagoa?”

“doesn’t exist.”

Benzel shook his head.

There was no other person in the world who would become a champion of commoner knights and fight Marquis Knauf.

“I hope the rumors are true. I’m an Imperial citizen, but I’m hoping for Viscount Lagoa’s victory in this duel.”

“Shh! It will be a big deal if the task force hears it, so don’t go anywhere and say things like that.”

“yes yes. Do not worry. However, they say that the special task force is preventing people from entering the area around the arena. I wonder if the duel will be fair.”

“All the knights of the Empire and Kingdom regard dueling as sacred, so I won’t do anything else.”

“Then why are they blocking access to the port? Isn’t that strange?”

“Even so, the duel will be fair. It is a right guaranteed by law.”

“Ah, when did you see nobles obey the law? The greater the nobles, the more they do not obey the law. The law is strict only for powerless citizens… It is for nobles, but isn’t it mana?”

“You are right, but the opponent is the Grand Duchess of Knauf. They are like the symbol of knights, so would you do something illegal in a duel?”

As the two whispered, the faint sound of a bell announcing noon could be heard in the distance.
