Episode 555 The Strange Soldier, Misunderstandings (4)
It’s morning in the territory.
It was a morning that some people had been waiting for, and for others, it was a morning that they did not want to come.
The faint noise coming from the dance hall of the mansion tickled my ears.
It was the sound of the soldiers swinging their swords, feeling that it was the last time.
The gardeners also took care of the garden with more care today, and the attendants were also busy cleaning the mansion.
Marquis Garen woke up refreshingly.
“It smells like mango. cluck.”
Leaving himself in the hands of the maid, he changed his clothes and left the private room.
Then Viscount Mace was waiting for him at the door.
“Are you awake?”
“I don’t know when it will be the last time, but I can’t just lie down.”
“ha ha ha. Take a look around. You will love it.”
Follow Viscount Mace’s guidance and cross the garden.
The shabby mate-less buildings were revealed.
It wasn’t like this even when I came a few years ago.
“It looks like the Count is in a bit of a hurry. Kkeuk.”
Even the building can’t be repaired.
Looking at the dying count’s house, I feel refreshed as if the thorns that had been stuck in me had disappeared.
Viscount Mays grinned.
“This is the land that will soon become the Marquis’s estate. The people living here will probably want a marquis rather than a powerless count.”
That’s really nice to hear.
A smile formed on Marquis Garen’s lips as well.
The two walked around the mansion accompanied by escort knights.
While chatting and looking around, they became interested when a corner became lively.
When I moved my steps out of curiosity, I saw soldiers wielding swords in the large gymnasium.
Viscount Mace frowned.
“It looks like you haven’t come to your senses yet.”
How dare they come and train soldiers?
He was about to say something to the soldiers, but the Marquis Garen stopped him.
“Marquis.”
“Leave it. Isn’t it fun?”
“But…”
“Let us handle that.”
When the Marquis pointed to the gymnasium with his chin, the escort knights bowed lightly and strode away.
As the five or six knights, who seemed sturdy enough to look like them, blocked them, the soldiers who wielded swords also looked at them.
“Do you have any business with us?”
Did you not like the soldier’s attitude?
Each of the escort knights frowned fiercely.
“I was feeling sore just now, would you like us to join you?”
At those words, the soldiers intuited.
‘He wants to quarrel.’
No matter how much they say they have a higher level than normal soldiers, they are not strong enough to defeat the escort knights under the direct control of Marquis Garen one-on-one.
Thinking there was no chance, the soldiers shook their heads.
“Only soldiers belonging to the count’s family are permitted to use this gymnasium. sorry.”
“If that’s the case, I can’t help it.”
The soldier was also puzzled when he seemed to be withdrawing so easily.
There was no way he would back down so easily if he wanted to quarrel with the Marquis.
Let’s look at him without letting go of the tension.
The escort knight changed his attitude in an instant.
“By the way, the way you treat knights for soldiers is arrogant.”
Since sparring at the gymnasium doesn’t work, they deliberately start a ridiculous fight.
It was clear that he was about to draw his sword, so the soldier hesitated and retreated.
“sorry. I had no intention of doing that.”
“I shamed my fellow knights, so what are you going to do about it?”
As he spoke, he glanced behind him, and there were knights grinning with their mouths slightly raised.
“You are all dead too. Now they are ignored even by mere soldiers.”
“ha ha ha. I guess I have to tell His Excellency the Marquis.”
At their words, the escort knight grinned.
“Did you see? It’s because of you that the lord is going to face you. How will you compensate for this?”
At this point, the soldiers were also quite perplexed.
Even so, I never thought that I would fight so recklessly.
Once a knight makes up his mind, a soldier can easily die.
Besides, the other person didn’t seem to have the heart to moderate it.
That moment.
A voice came from the side of the escort knights.
“Shouldn’t the marquis go back?”
The knight who was driving the soldier into a corner slowly turned his head at the sound he heard from the side.

Ray has been busy since morning.
Today is a pretty busy day.
It is the last day to look at the soldiers’ swordsmanship instruction and the first day of the Sylvester Merchant Merchant’s opening.
He took care of the soldiers from early morning and had to leave the county around noon.
“This makes it look like I can’t even eat.”
In tears, he immediately prepared himself and headed for the gymnasium.
Just in time, the soldiers waiting for him waved and greeted him.
“I was waiting.”
“ha ha ha. You are still diligent today.”
After training together for a while, I became quite close with the soldiers.
Now, no one cares if he enters the gym without a word.
Ray put down his luggage and said hello.
“Has everyone been here early?”
“…because I might not be able to come back now.”
It seems that they already know about the count’s situation.
Grown men were staring at the gymnasium vaguely, and laughter came out.
“Since there is no such thing, the men only focus on training. The strength of the uncle will be the strength of the count.”
“Well, that would be it.”
“We don’t want to worry either. But what if you’re worried? Besides…”
The soldier swung his sword.
Then, a strange swaying motion came out.
It wasn’t as sluggish as before, but if you ask me if there’s any theft, it wasn’t.
Rather, it was a swordsmanship that had a subtle corner that would naturally frown upon those who saw it.
It was no different for Ray.
Ray looked at the soldier with a frown on his face.
“What kind of swordsmanship is that again?”
Could it be that the swordsmanship was modeled after a snail?
I only saw the movement once, but the chicken meat sprouted.
Should I say that swordsmanship is disgusting?
There was nothing more terrifying than that of a muscular man wielding his sword.
Besides, her gestures are so bewitching that it’s as if she’s bewitching the other person with her lust.
The soldier shook his head after sighing as if he had goosebumps even after unfolding it himself.
“It has been like this for the past few days. I can’t find a way out, so what should I do?”
“Why do you lift your little finger when you’re swinging a sword?”
“I do not know. My body moves on its own.”
It’s a ghost to sing.
I never thought that this kind of aftershock would blow just because I showed Zeke’s swordsmanship once.
If Zeke himself had seen it, he would have furiously said that his sword was not like this and forcibly corrected the soldiers.
When soldiers are immersed in stretching exercises without finding a solution.
They wanted to feel a disturbing presence, and knights in plate armor approached them.
“Do you have any business with us?”
At first, the soldier seemed to respond, but the situation got worse and worse.
Perhaps they came with the intention of arguing in the first place, but they did not know how to leave.
“By the way, the way you treat knights for soldiers is arrogant.”
“sorry. I had no intention of doing that.”
“I shamed my fellow knights, so what are you going to do about it?”
As if the words were right, the knights standing in the back caught the wind.
“You are all dead too. Now they are ignored even by mere soldiers.”
“ha ha ha. I guess I have to tell His Excellency the Marquis.”
“Did you see? It’s because of you that the lord is going to face you. How will you compensate for this?”
It got to that point, so I couldn’t help but leave.
Ray, who was guiding the soldiers, walked out.
“Shouldn’t the marquis go back?”
Listening to the Marquis makes me feel dirty.
The knight’s expression, which had always been smiling, gradually changed to that of a mischievous slaughter.
The knight fixed his eyes on the handsome young man in front of him and raised his eyebrows.
“Is that what you said? How dare you make such a foolish remark about a mere soldier.”
Rather well it took.
After all, it was possible to turn the gym upside down in the name of correcting the ruthless soldier’s habit.
No matter what he thought, Ray stabbed his dagger sullenly.
“The jjottagu only lived with their mouths.”
I was insulted not once, but twice.
The angry knight pulled out his sword at once.
“You’re the one who wants to die.”
“I don’t die well.”
“I’ll see where that statement is true.”
Wedge-Ae-Ae-!
The wind parted and the knight’s sword struck the crown of his head.
The other soldiers couldn’t even look properly at the sword wielded by the knight.
“Now restrain yourself!”
“What are you doing!”
Before the soldiers even get angry.
The knight’s sword was caught in Ray’s grasp.
“This is it!”
The knight struggled to pull out the sword.
One sword did not budge, as if it had been driven into a rock.
Ray lightly shook his hand.
Then, the sword in his grip could not overcome the force and broke.
Chaenggang-!
As the sword made by mixing steel with mithril broke easily, the escort knights retreated away from him.
“You guys! You must have been a knight of the count family!”
“We are knights under the direct command of Marquis Garen! Do you think you’ll be all right after all this!”
At that, Ray laughed.
“How come all the bad guys say the same thing. What are you going to do?”
“If your Excellency the Marquis knows, you are dead! Disarm now and kneel!”
Now, the Marquis is even mentioned.
Ordinary soldiers or knights would have been frightened by those words, but to Ray, it was a story that had nothing to do with it.
“Damn it!”
He swung his fist at the knights.
At that, the escort knight smiled in repentance.
‘You stupid bastard! No matter how strong you are, do you think you can beat six knights!’
The reason why he mentioned the marquis was to buy time.
Since he raised his mana and made preparations, it would be an instant for the tide to turn.
The knight reached out his hand to block his fist.
If you block the first attack, the rest of the fellow knights will subdue that spoiled guy.
Fill up the mana and bring it to his fist.
Wooddeuk-!
The mana-bearing fingers couldn’t hold out even for a moment and broke like sorghum cans.
