The Legend of Return
Chapter 487. One Summer Visitor (2)
‘You cheeky bastard. That’s a knight too…’
At the appearance of a knight whose name he didn’t know, Russell frowned in the helmet.
The Becker manor, which I confirmed with my own eyes, seemed to be able to do it.
The five people armed with magic armor who accompanied us today could have wiped out this much territory.
It was a precedent for ordinary soldiers to surrender all at once when the knights in the lead died.
However, Russell developed patience and suppressed the desire to wipe out.
The lord, the Marquis of Aradon, spoke in secret.
It was said that Lord Becker was an excellent elementalist to the extent that Baron Lubek was defeated.
“Serve the guests.”
Then a thunderous cry rang out.
It was clearly audible to all who had ears.
‘Magic!!!’
The owner of the resounding voice using amplification magic was young.
Russell became more cautious than before.
“Open the gates!”
Knight Kars gave the order.
Grrrrrr.
The solid gates were wide open.
“let’s go.”
Baron Russell was slightly startled by the magic, but he was not discouraged.
It occupied the county, but it was guarded by knights who were not even as good as the baron.
“!!!”
Russell was startled by what was revealed as the gates opened.
‘Magic Castle Gate!’
The first thing I noticed was the pattern of the magic gate, where the magic device was clearly operating.
And that wasn’t all.
Contrary to the reports I heard, it was not a place like a beggar’s den, but the appearance of the inner castle was full of vitality.
It was a sight that could not be seen in other territories.
Even in the marquis’ estate, such a sight was impossible.
‘It’s alive….. All of its expressions.’
Not only the lined up soldiers, but also the commoners and children passing by all looked at Russell and his party in wonder.
In other territories, even the shadows of the knights would make the commoners hurriedly hide or bow their heads.
The knights had the right to be punished for contempt if they made even an eye-catching mistake.
However, in this territory, such a punishment seemed impossible due to the atmosphere.
Even when they saw the strange knights, they were not afraid at all.
Rather, I looked at him with a curious gaze.
Russell’s plan went spectacularly wrong.
The flag of the Marquis family and the majesty of the knights tried to break the momentum, but the charter turned upside down.
“Mmm.”
Russell let out a muffled groan.
Contrary to the initial momentum, the baron’s party shrank.
Tick-tack-tack.
Only the sound of horses hooves echoed in the silent silence.
I don’t know what it was, but it was a county with a strange atmosphere.
The atmosphere of the soldiers was the same.
He did not feel any fear at the appearance of the strange knights.
It didn’t even look like the soldiers who were talking about it like they were rumored to be.
He showed a fighting spirit to pull the baron and his knights off their horses whenever an order fell.
Power went into the hand holding the reins.
The place I visited easily became a dangerous place.
gulp.
Russell swallowed dryly.
Now I know that the rumor that the lord of this place defeated the beast and took over the castle was not a lie.
When Russell was psychologically nervous, the knights who followed him were also nervous.
Infected by an invisible energy.
“Get off.”
When they arrived at the castle, they were greeted by a knight who looked like a mercenary with a stern look.
There, too, the Becker soldiers looked fearlessly at Russell and his men.
‘What’s here?’
Resistance was hard to look at.
If there was a siege, it seemed difficult to avoid the classics.
“Okay.”
Russell dismounted first.
It was a courtesy to the lord.
It was unofficial, but this place was a county, and the lord was claiming to be a count.
“Only three knights are allowed to enter.”
“Let me rest.”
“number of people!”
Russell gave orders to his knights and cavalrymen.
Bubbly.
Russell followed the knight in the lead and entered through the castle gate.
Resistance was about the size of Lessel’s baron lord’s castle.
It was not a county for nothing in terms of scale.
drooling.
The door to the main building of the inner sanctuary opened.
‘Magic?’
The cool breeze that he felt at the same time startled Russell once again.
The comfort that can only be tasted in a marquis’s castle wrapped around her body.
It was certain that a wizard with excellent skills was staying in this castle.
“This way.”
The grim-looking knight took the lead again.
Strange knights even entered my inner self, but I wasn’t afraid at all.
It was to the point where I could feel the momentum of attacking.
In the past, knights dispatched as messengers occupied the castle, but today they couldn’t even dare to launch such a provocation.
rattle.
There were few soldiers and knights coming and going in the castle.
The hall of introspection arrived like that.
When the door opened, two people appeared.
A man was sitting on a throne.
Next to them, a woman covering her face with a robe looked at them.
‘High Circle Wizard!’
At first glance, he was an unusual wizard.
Judging from the appearance of the body, it was assumed that she was a young woman, but the skills she possessed could not be guessed.
The energy of looking at them as they approached with the staff was arrogant.
At least 6 circles or more were certain.
Pababat.
My eyes met the man sitting on the throne.
“I am the lord of this place, Count Becker Jean.”
Russell’s eyebrows twitched.
Usually, it was polite to ask the identity of the person coming as a messenger first and then show respect.
However, as soon as he saw it, he first revealed his identity as a subordinate.
‘He’s a strange guy.’
Like the mercenaries, his hair was short and without dignity.
He looked much younger than Russell himself.
However, the force delivered was not easy.
It was arrogant and arrogant.
There was no sign of fear at all in front of the three knights.
In the central hall, there were now only the lord, the wizard, and a knight with a dirty look.
Soldiers who should normally stand up were nowhere to be seen.
However, it seemed that an invisible energy was suppressing it from all sides.
The Spiritual Sign, the lord.
His skills were not accurately grasped by Russell.
“Baron Russell de Fadoon, Your Excellency’s faithful sword, Marquis Aradon de Jeunen, who is forever loved by the gods… Meet the lord.”
Russell reluctantly bowed his head slightly to show his respect.
“It’s a long way, but I wonder why you came here. It doesn’t look like you’re here for a meal.”
Usually at times like this, it was the order of the day to talk about the marquis and ask the gods to say goodbye.
But Lord Becker ignored such basic etiquette.
It meant that he had a strong antipathy toward the Marquis family.
“Your Excellency wants to protect the honor of the Baroness of Rubec de Alpone, who is protected by the oath.”
Russell got right to the point.
The story with Lord Becker did not seem to end easily.
Baron Lubeck was a baron under the protection of the Marquis of Aradon.
It was a silver-won that had to be resolved.
This was also the duty of the marquis.
“You don’t seem to know that Baron Lubeck has invaded the land ruled by the lord he saw first without shame?”
The lord asked as if it were absurd.
“Your Excellency is also aware of that. However, invading the castle of the Baron of Lubeck is a challenge to the Marquess. As is customary…”
“A challenge? So, are you asking for dog money?”
“Dog price?”
Baron Russell stared at the ignorant lord, who showed no respect at all for his absurd remark.
If the honor of the Marquis is damaged, war will be declared immediately.
However, lord Becker shamelessly insults the dead, even spitting out the absurd remark of ‘dog price’ without fear.
He was a big guy.
“If not, what do you mean by compensation? Do you like this place? Do you think this Youngji has something to eat?”
The lord asked with an incomprehensible smile.
That attitude was a remark that disregarded not only the Marquis, but also himself in front of him.
sigh.
Grinding his teeth so much that the movement of his jaw joint was noticeable, Baron Russell concluded.
The author was obviously not an aristocrat.
It was clear that he was a baseless mercenary who ate at will.
***
The baron Russell’s face was contorted.
I snapped at the loosely thrown bait.
It wasn’t a guy who came with a benevolent purpose to anyone’s eyes.
It was a ploy to suck the blood of Youngji, which I had raised with great difficulty.
If you entertain with kind words, it was a place where you could certify Bingdari hot pants.
He provoked him with bone-piercing words.
The result is…..
“Your Excellency… is a child of God who pays a neat tribute to the God of Mercy every year. Showing mercy on this, Lord Becker… made an unconventional proposal to accept it as the tenth sword if he came under his command. Will you obey the beckoning of fate?”
I don’t know what bullshit makes you so verbose.
I hate to hear the sound of surrendering and getting down close to being a servant.
“What if I say no?”
“…the god of war will descend upon this land and overshadow the righteous.”
“Is it a threat?”
“It is a suggestion.”
“Then the answer is decided.”
In a word, a rotten smile spread across his lips.
“hate. That’s even worse than dying. Even if dirt gets in my eyes, I won’t be able to see it.”
“!!!”
When he refused on the spot without thinking, Russell’s face flushed red.
The lord that Russell serves is expressed as a dog.
“Right now… not only the lord’s life, but the lives of everyone in this territory are at stake. If you don’t take the last chance…”
“Sir Russell, will you come under me? I’ll give you a generous allowance.”
“Please refrain from blaspheming the faithful Baron!!!”
conductor!
Russell, filled with uncontrollable rage, drew his sword at last.
yes!
Chajajang.
The two knights behind them drew their swords at the same time.
At this level, the intended plate was laid perfectly.
“Is it a challenge?”
“I challenge Lord Becker to a duel in the name of all the gods who officially administer judgment!”
young! I’ll praise you for your courage.
call!
“I will accept it. If I lose… take this territory for you.”
“!!!”
The fish took a small shrimp bait and fluttered.
The attitude of a professional angler is to grab it quickly with a float pole before changing your mind.
“But if you lose…”
He cut back on his backbiting and looked up and down at Russell and the knights who were in good shape with their swords.
And carefully inspected their armor and weapons.
that’s money
“dirty!”
Sreung!
“But are these crazy? Do you not know whose territory this is now?”
Even when the knights drew their swords, Sir Talman, who had been watching without a word, exploded.
Those knights couldn’t easily do anything to me.
Aaaaaaaaaa.
And next to me, Arin, a 7th-circle wizard, was preparing a mana starter.
They also didn’t pick up their knight qualifications on the road, so they should know the results of magic.
“Sir Talman! Call the temple priests and make them witnesses to this duel.”
“yes! Lord!”
If you just catch and kill the person who came as a messenger, you will get sick later.
Even if the size of the territory grows later, it will remain dishonorable.
In a word, the future is not good.
All you have to do is respect the law here.
I don’t know because no one knows me here, but…..
I’m a guy who goes to law school at Korea University.
