Episode 806 Danger to Baybon (2)
“Is the Black Room interfering?”
“I heard there is a possibility.”
The sinking king’s deep voice resounded solemnly in the hall.
“Originally, information related to Shinmahoe cannot be handed over to outsiders. I believe you know the Lord.”
“Oh, Your Majesty.”
“I know Jim. But isn’t it possible to make unprecedented things on Jim’s stand?”
King Baybon cut off his words resolutely.
“The Shinmahoe is the long history of Bon Bay Bon. No matter how much the black room intervenes, it can’t be helped this time.”
When the king, who was expected to readily grant permission, expressed his refusal, Gayman kept his mouth shut and lowered his head.
“I will do as your Majesty wills.”
“Thank you for understanding.”
Even the king who made the decision.
Not a single one of the gay men who obeyed the order could straighten their faces.
He made a small bow and left for Daejeon.
* * *
“Ouch!”
“Please be patient.”
The young priest said while pouring the potion.
“Just being conscious is enough. The captain caught it and consider it fortunate that it ended like this.”
“That’s okay, can you be a little more gentle? I will die of pain.”
“Ho-ho-ho. It’s tough.”
The priest slapped the bruise.
“Aaaagh!”
“It’s over. It’s good to go back.”
“Ugh! What kind of kingdom treats its guests like this?”
As I came out with a caress on my shoulder, Cade came running.
“Are you okay?”
“This is nothing.”
Pretend to be strong on the topic that made you cry a while ago.
Cade said anxiously.
“My condition was serious until I left the audience room. It’s to the point where I wonder if I’m going to die like this.”
“People don’t die that easily.”
You speak as if you had experience.
“Be careful. I don’t know what happened, but I don’t want to commit any more blasphemy…”
Cayde, who was talking, raised his head at the shadow that suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
Then, isn’t it that Captain Gayman is standing in front of him!
I heard that even a tiger will come when I say it!
‘Huh!’ Cade took a deep breath and stepped back.
“you.”
“Is that what you mean?” I was relieved to see
him
shaking his head.
However, he soon became contemplative as he saw only gay men looking at Ray.
Could it be that you still haven’t gotten over your temper, so you came to hit me more?
“Now wait a minute!”
“I have a story to tell just the two of us. You may go back now.”
“I can’t! I just heard from the priest that you need to get some rest! Giving more admonitions than this is unacceptable as a member of the Dengyudan!”
Gayman frowned at his courageous words.
There was nothing more frightening than that of his huge physique, even his facial expression was violently distorted.
Ray stopped Cade.
“are you okay. It doesn’t look like he’s coming to hit you again.”
“Mr Le Ray!”
“I’m sorry, but please go back first.”
As if seeing the last appearance of a close friend.
Cade let out a drool and answered.
“All right. But if something happens, I will never let it go.”
After talking to only gay men, he leaves as if running away.
Looking at Cade’s back, he untied his arms.
“It seems to have bought hatred.”
“It’s because you make an impression with that face. What’s more? I didn’t expect you to come this soon.”
It would have to be three days after the tournament for the list of qualifiers to be completed.
It’s only been a few hours, but only the gay man who came to visit him is a little curious.
He looked around and said.
“First, we move places. You might have eyes to see.”
* * *
Walked behind Gayman.
After leaving the village and entering the quiet forest, I saw a small cabin behind the castle.
“This is where the workers cut firewood every morning. No one will come and go on an afternoon like this.”
“Is it that important?”
“…yes.”
He answers with a rather serious face.
The two of them entered the cabin and sat down without saying who came first.
There was no attendant even to serve a cup of tea, and the ceiling was even stretched with cobwebs, as if it were really a place where workers stopped by only in the morning to work.
Only Gay, who had been silent for a while, broke the silence first.
“I have conveyed to Your Majesty what the Holy Son said. However, His Majesty does not want to break the old tradition of the Shinmahoe.”
“Then…”
“Yes. I don’t think I can help you with the Shinmahoe.”
“Mmm.”
Ray expressed displeasure.
The list of participants in Shinmahoe is absolutely necessary.
It is because it is easy to identify the spy in the Black Room, as it is possible to know not only the origins of the entrants, but also their names and hometowns.
However, it is impossible without permission from the king.
“Is there any other way?”
For example, intercepting the list in the middle.
If that’s not the case, it’s like investigating the personal details of the entrants separately.
Gayman, who had guessed Ray’s question in advance, sighed.
“Due to the nature of Shinmahoe, the preliminaries and finals are held at fixed times, regardless of origin, so it is not possible to go around looking for unknown participants.”
As he said, searching for participants one by one is pouring water into a bottomless pot.
Then why don’t you make it come the other way?
Unless King Baybon was an idiot, there was no way he would do such a thing and go undetected.
Once an order is given to Geyman, he must obey the king’s will unconditionally.
Talking like this now was, in some ways, disobeying the king’s order.
“I think it will be difficult to convince the king. If this happens, even the winner will have no choice but to come from our side.”
“For now, that’s for the best. I apologize.”
“Don’t apologize. It is enough just to give you information.”
Ray stood up from his seat.
Now, it is difficult to expect help from the Baybon royal family.
Then there is only one thing left to do.
‘I have no choice but to run to the point of sweating my feet.’
I think I will get more tired in the future.
* * *
Even after arriving at Baybon Castle, Cayde continued to train.
At first, the monotonous swordsmanship gradually began to gain weight, and now it has risen to a level that is quite acceptable.
‘Marquis Simon’s swordsmanship was helpful.’
The secret swordsmanship of Marquis Simon, who is said to be the essence of the quicksword.
It was all I had seen at most once, but it wasn’t enough to give Cade a rough idea.
“Bend your back. Swing it with the power of your stomach rather than your arms.”
“yes.”
Booung-! Booung-!
I feared that I might rely too much on my favorite sword, so from today I only had to wield a branch.
There is no lack of poor feeling, but this can also be corrected enough before the start of the competition.
I’ve been training like that for a while.
Bent and his group passed by the castle grinned at Cade’s appearance.
“Do you think a weak guy from the beginning will become stronger just by swinging it a few more times? Give up your vain dreams and return to your humble country estate.”
“Ho-ho-ho.”
“Kkeuk.”
The nobles around him laughed at his harsh words.
However, their conversation did not reach Cade, who was already so engrossed that he could not hear the surroundings.
Rather, he only swings the branch in his hand more vigorously.
Shiiyi-!
The blunt branches cut through the grain of the wind.
Is it because of that?
The sound, which had been rather full before, became somehow sharper.
There was even a small mana at the end of the branch.
“Where do you put the sword and train with something like that? Ha ha ha ha ha.”
“I knew Baron Dotton was poor, but I didn’t know that he wouldn’t have money to buy a wooden sword. Ho ho ho.”
Ray kicked a pebble at them chattering loudly.
Piing-!
“Ugh!”
Bant, hit in the forehead by the bounced pebbles, collapsed clutching his head.
“Hehe. Why are you falling down on the empty sidewalk?”
“Is it you again?”
“I guess we have a very close relationship. Let’s meet in such a wide castle.”
“Sounds funny! Who says that you have a relationship with a commoner!”
He says it with sad blue eyes, but I rather like that.
The bolder he is, the more he has a taste for bullying.
Even if it wasn’t, Ray, who was in a bad mood, expressed willpower with a plan to bully him.
It’s still immature, but sometimes this will be good training.
He hit Bent hard on the back of the head.
Bahah-!
Not only Bent, but also the nobles around him were surprised by the blow that made even the wild beasts run away in surprise.
“Aaaagh!”
He screamed and fell to the ground.
“Heh heh. Is the floor that good?”
“It’s your fault!”
“Did I just stay here?”
“Shut up! What must have been done! I’ll make you pay for scorning the nobles!”
Sreureung-!
Excited, Bent even pulled out his sword.
This was unexpected, so Ray let out an exclamation.
“Are you a guy with guts? Would it be okay if I drew a knife from the same member?”
“Do you think you’ll get hurt by asking about one more guy? It’s you who will roll on the floor this time!”
He really came in with the intent to kill.
At first, Ray, who was going to use his hands roughly, felt the lifeblood flowing from him and gave up the idea of doing it roughly.
If you can’t fix your habit here, you’re a guy who will commit enough murders elsewhere.
Ray tapped Bent’s wrist with the branch he was holding.
Wooddeuk-!
“Quaaaaagh!”
With a broken hand, he let go of the sword.
Looking at the dangling forearm, Ray clicked his tongue.
“Tsk tsk. What if I let go of the sword with a broken wrist?”
“Ouch! yes man!”
“Are you going to try again?”
“Die!”
It’s rather hard to look at it as it completely loses its reason and rushes at it, ignoring defense.
Ray nudged his knee again.
Bent, who was running with the momentum, slammed his face into the ground.
The shock must have been considerable, and he eventually passed out, even drooling.
The move was so exquisite that the nobles who were watching it seemed as if Bent had come and bumped into a tree branch on its own.
“Your restraint wasn’t as strong as I thought.”
“I never thought I would lose to such a dirty man.”
“Dan’s shame.”
On the contrary, I am even hearing swear words from the party I used to laugh and talk about.
This is why you should make good friends.
Without even thinking about rectifying the fallen bant, the children of the nobles soon went back to each other as if their interest had cooled.
At this point, this guy is a little bit, but I feel pitiful.
“Think of it as your hand.”
