9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword Chapter 124

Episode 124

Episode 51. Everything Comes Back(7)

An abandoned castle in the Rochshires.

Hayes came here on vacation. It was to meet the black magician. He had come alone, not with Winslting or Varis.

Heize walked into the depths of the fortress with her hands behind her back while holding the spear. Overgrown weeds continued to trodden underfoot.

[Did you come…] It was a bizarre voice like that of Amanzo. Hayes stopped walking and frowned.

“Reveal your appearance.”

Shiram. That was the name of the warlock.

[You know? I don’t really like the way I look. It must be unpleasant.]

“It’s more unpleasant to hide like a rat while talking to me.”

procrastinate.

Something rose from the floor a few feet away from Haze. It was a dark bubble. It looked disgusting, infested with swarms of insects.

The bubble slowly took on a human shape.

Shiram had a terrible appearance. Even though the whole body was dark, the skin was constantly flowing. Smoke rose whenever the skin, flowing like molten iron, fell to the ground.

“Duke Winslting doesn’t trust you. What happened to your arrogant wisdom skills? I offered a sacrifice, but this time I can’t even find Zishka’s whereabouts.”

Hayes sacrificed one hundred miryaks to find Zishka’s whereabouts. No matter how low his social position was, Mirjak was also a human after all.

They killed a hundred humans and used their blood to use black magic to find the whereabouts of Zishka.

It was impossible to find a person who disappeared somewhere without any clues with ordinary magic.

[…there’s something you can’t see at all. It seems that a fairly high-ranking being is with her.]

“Don’t think about talking about things you can’t understand. Jekka Dean Yohaim until this Zishka. This is the third time already.”

How many humans have already been sacrificed to this disgusting man! Each time Shiram’s dark magic was used, at least fifty humans were needed.

No matter how Heize is the Imperial Chancellor, he is a person who is close to the pinnacle of power, but it was very difficult to cover for a human like that.

It would have been more convenient if it had been money. There was also a limit to stealing the prisoners and miryak imprisoned in each territory prison little by little. The same goes for kidnapping commoners or barbarians.

[I have no reason to lie. There is no reason for the Lord to treat me carelessly.]

He spoke softly, but there was a thorn in it. Hayes gritted his teeth.

The first time I met him was in Tejiz.

At that time, the black magician was hovering around Tejiz to use Pidgin Carta’s ghost. Tejiz had her distant descendants.

It was Jeka and his mother.

Shiram, like a warlock, had the power to accurately see through human desires. He had approached Heize first to find out what his desire was.

To defeat Duran and devour the Empire. That was Hayes’ desire. Even before he met Shiram, Heize realized that it was only possible by borrowing the power of demons.

Among the riders of the House of Rollman, none was better than Randel Jacques. The same was true of his first son, Lyoka Rollmandi.

[My foresight comes from Hwa, the god of emptiness. If it’s an existence that can’t be read here… There are only a few in royalties.]

“Damn it! Is that the answer you prepared?”

[As I said before, the future I see is not immutable.

You’ve seen a lot of gains, but you’re treating me so badly because I’m a little twisted.]

Shiram blinked his eyelids. Melting skin flowed into the empty hole where the eye should be. Heize wanted to kill the hated black magician right in front of her eyes.

[Among humans, there are probably ogre slayers and ‘him’.

But it’s strange that I can’t read it at all… I don’t even know if it’s human. Any guesses?]

No matter how much Hugo possesses the dragon’s eye, he couldn’t be completely free from Shiram’s foresight.

It was normal to see even one of the most meaningless fragments of his future.

Shiram wondered if the being with Jishka might be Kriesha Ainu. If it was that blue dragon, it was natural that even with his foresight, he couldn’t see it at all.

But Shiram’s predictions were all wrong. It was Yuma who was with Zishka, and since he was a time reversal, he was not exposed to any foresight.

It was the same with Jekka Dean and Joachim. Shiram was completely unaware of the variable of the time reversal named Yuma. I’m just vaguely suspecting that ‘he’ may have intervened.

‘He’ was a mysterious wizard who helped Yuma in Joheim. Warlock couldn’t call his name.

“does not exist.”

[Hmm. That’s strange. Is it Hugo?

It wouldn’t be ‘him’…]

Heize squeezed the spear and calmed my excitement. It was only his own loss to raise the heat against Shiram.

However, as I unconsciously repeated the name ‘Hugo’, an announcement I read once flashed through my mind.

[Waiting for a woman suitable for Captain Hugo of the Black Wolves. Ogre Slayer The World’s Strongest, Absolutely Invincible Macho! If you are interested, please come to Puang Merchant.

Come only those who are confident that they will not faint even

in the face of overwhelming energy.] The Puang Merchant said they were looking for Hugo’s bride…

And the Puang Merchant is actually led by Yu Ma.

Could it be that Zishka was stolen and sent to Hugo?

Heize tried imagining what Barris said about the gangsters.

The body shape and weapons used were also different from those of Duran and Yuma. Beating Varys was especially hard to consider because it was Duran’s style.

At that time, Yuma and Duran put in insoles to increase their height, so it was only natural that they used the spears.

Varys had clearly said that they ‘used spears, but looked like masters of martial arts’. Heize had seen Yuma’s martial arts beforehand. It was in a shabby mansion at the top of Jeka.

Yuma’s martial arts were so powerful that he could be called a master. It was to the extent that I was embarrassed inside when I grabbed Yuma’s fist.

Besides passing through the gate.

The garrison soldiers had said that Yuma passed through the gate with two prostitutes. Of course, the courtesans didn’t have any resemblance to Zishka. Above all, the eye color was different.

But isn’t Natalie, the owner of the rose society, a Yuma person? It was a story I had heard from Baris. Yuma brought Natalie to his mansion.

It seemed that the Rose Society could perfectly disguise Zishka as a whore. Although it is questionable whether that self-respecting Zishka would have agreed.

When he reached this point, Heize fell into a strange sense of incongruity.

“Useless child. Please let me know if there are any changes.”

[Sir Hayes, whether it is or not.]

Hayes exited the fort, thinking about what variables would be if Yuma made Zishka the bride of Hugo.

I didn’t know if it was a good thing.

Even if Yuma had swindled Zishka to the Worgs, there was no way Hugo would accept Zishka as his bride. I probably killed it along with Yuma.

If Zishka did not return, the Empress would surely start a war. Also a large-scale war.

Joachim’s evidence can be made by having Baris overwrite it. In the meantime, it was enough for him to wake up Tejiz’s Malong and swallow the empire that was busy with war.

* * * The owner of the voice was Catherine Jacques.

She was riding a horse with several other knights, including Randel and Itel Jacques.

“Miss Catherine!”

Tulka jumped up and quickly approached Catherine and her group. It was the first time for Catherine and the Zac family nobles to see the ancient wolf in person.

However, it was not the time to say goodbye while watching the ancient wolves. Catherine looked back and forth between Yuma and Hugo, choosing her words.

After talking with Duran, she hovered near the gate every day with the knights of the Zac family.

It was because if Yuma returned, he would have to inform the insider.

Until just yesterday, I was terrified of what would happen if Yuma failed and died.

Seeing Yuma’s face, Catherine wanted to scream. He himself did not know why.

I just wanted to scream and curse.

Then, my heart started beating fast. It was because of the fact that Yuma was alive and not dead. I wanted to hug him and pat him on the head.

In the space of 12 seconds, various emotions surged. His head was dizzy and his breathing was rapid.

“Are you successful?”

Contrary to her heart, Catherine asked in a cold tone.

“That’s right. The first princess has now become the godmother of magic.”

Yuma and Catherine succinctly shared their respective situations.

“Your Majesty has virtually entrusted all authority to Master.”

“yes.”

“Yoheim’s evidence has also been reported. Your Majesty doesn’t have a job to say this yet.”

“It’s probably because His Majesty doesn’t question Varys after receiving the report because it’s burdensome. If you kill him, you will have to pay for the sins of Archduke Winslting.”

“Haa…

“But the fact that you delegated full authority to Master means that His Majesty will not just protect Archduke Winslting.”

“What would you like me to do?”

“First of all, Your Majesty hasn’t announced anything about Joheim yet, has it?”

“Yes.”

solved!

If so, passing through the gate was a piece of cake. In addition, it became much easier to negotiate with the empress.

Jishka is still the first princess of the empire, not the worst traitor who has attracted the demons. All he had to do was approach, reveal his identity, and threaten to open the door immediately.

Of course, the current Zishka looked very different from when she was the princess. Her hair was shortened and she was wearing the traditional dress of Matan. Besides, there was no means to prove that she was the princess.

It was a matter that the nobles of the Jacques family could guarantee.

It would have been impossible if he had not been an ancient wolf and returned in a wagon as planned. The Empress was scheduled to declare a national emergency tomorrow.

Yuma led Catherine and Randel to Hugo. The knights did not yet know that Zishka had become Hugo’s bride.

Hugo did not reveal an overbearing aura. The introduction was concise.

“Hugo.”

“Speak.”

“Before you pass through the gate, there is one thing I want to tell you.”

“Something?”

“For a while, the status of godmother should be the imperial princess.”

“Hahaha, that’s funny. why?”

Zishka interrupted.

“People still don’t know that Godmother is gone.”

It was needless to say that he was, in effect, a fugitive.

“I will obey my wife’s wishes.”

Fortunately, it did not seem to be an area where Hugo’s will was damaged.

Zishka looked at the gate with a strange expression for a moment.

“She was a prostitute when she came out, but she becomes a princess again when she enters. I know what you mean. Good waterway.”

Zishka straightened her back and answered.

“Sir Randall. Please equip the knights of the Zach family with honors. For the first princess of the empire to pass through the gateway, there is no way there would not be a line of honor.”
