9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword Chapter 97

Episode 97

Episode 43. Jishka Rose ⑴ After Hella left, Poin looked for Yuma. Before checking the payment documents, I wanted to find out the identity of the woman first.

Yuma was sitting in the VIP room, lost in thought.

“Yuma-sama, who the hell is that rude woman? The coachman or whatever he brought with him even knocked down our gatekeeper! ”

Poin grumbled, looking quite displeased.

“…Could it be that you were speaking carelessly to him?”

Upon seeing Yuma’s reaction, Pouang realized something was wrong.

“It’s him…r “Not knowing is good for Poin-sama’s mental health.”

“Just tell me. Did I make a big mistake?”

“This is the second princess, Hella.”

“Don’t lie. Hell, do you mean me!?”

“It’s really hella degrading. Puang-nim’s guts seem to be getting better day by day.”

dump.

Pouang’s legs gave out and he sat down. When I heard the name ‘Hella’, I felt that not only my strength was relaxed, but my soul was about to run out.

‘It smelled like a big game, but I thought it was a poor Hella!’

The root of the problem was that I felt uncomfortable in the morning. Even though he clearly said, ‘I am a big player’,

he took the attitude of ‘I am a big player too’.

“Ah… what have I done to you?”

“The Puang Merchant is still up to today …. Your servant will probably send the Imperial Guard. Because a single member of the upper ranks dared to commit an act of disrespect to the imperial princess.”

“Aaaagh! Would you really?”

“You don’t. It’s a joke. Hella is not such a shallow person.”

Puang glared at Yuma and held his spirit straight.

“Congratulations, Mr. Puang. Puang-nim became the first commoner to speak harshly to the imperial princess and survive.”

“Don’t make fun of me. My heart is still beating. Why did my servant find Yuma-sama?”

“Speak slowly. First, wake up everyone in the Zach family and send them to the meeting room. Natalie too.

I think I’ll be emptying the top again soon. For now, Puang-sama is working at the corps.”

Yuma simply washed her face and went to the conference room.

One by one, people with blank faces began to gather in the meeting room. Only Duran, who had the body of a superhuman, had a well-mannered face.

“What are you doing this morning? Now I even wake up on my own. And my father, Randall’s brother. I wondered where he jumped from, and he was here.”

“I just had a drink with my student. I didn’t give you the mansion.”

Catherine said. She, too, had been drinking with Natalie all night and came back in the morning and had just fallen asleep.

“Lord Hella just met me and passed away.”

“what?”

“I think I’ve found a way to save Zishka’s deterioration.”

While listening to Yuma’s story, the audience had nothing to say. Duran made a gloomy expression as he recalled the circumstances in which the imperial princess had no choice but to ask a commoner, not herself.

It was something Hela couldn’t bear to ask of Duran. Saying that the key suspect in treason should be spared.

Duran, of course, wants to save Zishka. However, the weight of being the commander-in-chief of the empire and the position of the princess sometimes came as an irresistible burden.

In fact, officially there was no way Duran could help.

‘Even though Hella and I are in such a high place, there’s not much we can do as we wish.’

Duran smiled bitterly.

“What if things go wrong? I cannot even guarantee your life.”

“You have to think about it then.

It is impossible to calculate all the variables of a human named Hugo.”

“Don’t talk like that. If Hugo kills you, I will personally lead the entire army and take revenge on Magican.”

“Don’t do that. What would you like to die for?”

“Are you really going to send low Zishka to Hugo?”

“Yes, Master.”

“If that’s what you and I mean…

is this really the only way?”

“Perhaps.”

Catherine, who had been listening quietly, jumped to her feet.

“hey! You idiot are you saying that? My father is also calm. I fully sympathize with the desire to save the lower Zishka! But let’s all think rationally.”

Catherine looked around the crowd and opened her mouth again.

“It is true that you committed treason whether you were drugged or taken advantage of. Soon, the people of the Zach family sent to Joheim will ask for evidence. But looking at it objectively, this is too foolish.”

That was right.

Rather, it would have been a much better decision to give Zishka a chance to testify before he was executed, and to uncover the guilt of Winslting and Hayes after Duran gave strength to that testimony.

Doing so could not save Zishka’s life, but it could have made trouble for Winslting’s gang, who had already cut off their tails.

“And Hugo? Will Hugo really marry the empress, who has lost the honor of the empire, or will he marry her as a toy to play with and kill?”

no one could answer Looking at Matan’s hostility toward the Empire, the probability of the latter was overwhelmingly high.

“No matter how much Hugo has a crush on Yuma, it’s not as good as his father. If things go wrong, even Yuma could die! It is risking Yuma’s life to save a treacherous criminal.”

“Yuma joked in a calm voice that Lady Catherine would think so much of her life.

“The Zach family owes a lot to you. I have the right to use you as much as you have used our Zach family. It’s the same with this mansion incident. Besides, what position should the Empire take if Duran Jacques’ apprentice is killed by Hugo?”

“It’s a position. It’s just… a commoner died.”

“You are not just a commoner, you are your father’s disciple. It is a matter directly related to the father’s honor! If you die, will your father really stay still? I will go to war with Matan. Do you know what I mean?”

It was a story that the empire might stumble.

If the war with Matan started immediately, the Kantra Empire in the East and the Byeolbyeol Kingdoms could all form an alliance and attack the empire.

It was because if Duran and Hugo collide, one of them will surely die and the other cannot be safe.

Of course, the absence of Duran and some troops did not prevent the empire from enduring the invasion.

However, if such a war is fought, even an empire will inevitably become different from before.

Of course, the national power will weaken and the deterrence power that used to put pressure on the world will be lowered.

Catherine said this, but there was one thing that even the world did not know.

If humans fight each other like that, what about the dragon and horse war?

However, Yuma did not want to think about what would happen after death. It didn’t have to be.

And even if he didn’t like having Zishka as his wife, would Hugo really kill himself?

It was just a feeling, but it seemed unlikely.

“Your lady’s elixir is serious. Not to that extent.”

“Doesn’t this all sound like a fairy tale? If there are only two Grand Masters in the world, it is possible enough.”

“Even if I die, it’s fine as long as Master doesn’t take revenge.”

“You don’t know your real father’s personality?”

“I hope you will do that.

He is the commander-in-chief of the empire. As a result of meeting Hugo in person, he wasn’t that far behind.”

The person who had no back then was right. But there was no need to be honest with Catherine.

“Yes, yes, my friend is right. What’s wrong with the Zishka lower? Hugo will love it too. First of all, it’s beautiful! In addition, the distinction of being a princess is…

ok!

Katherine punches Randall in the stomach.

Randall’s body had not yet recovered after using Sword Eye. After being hit by a fist, he trembled and bent over.

“Everyone is crazy! It’s a pity that the decline of Zishka is the same for me!

But doesn’t everyone care if Yuma dies or not?”

The meeting room became quiet as if cold water had been poured on it. Catherine blushed and avoided Yuma’s gaze.

“My lady… took me that far! Impressed!”

“Wait, I want to say something too.”

Natalie stepped out.

“Even if I look at it from a third-person perspective, this job has a high probability of failure and there are too many variables. Let’s say that if things go well, poor Zishka can safely become Hugo’s bride.

Then what next?”

“Next kill Winsting and Hayes and Bar Reese.”

“I agree. You cannot breathe on the same ground as those who drug women.”

Duran and Randell spoke at the same time.

Is it really just that if I save it, it will work somehow… Natalie shook her head.

Even with such a simple way of thinking, you can survive. Being a powerful nobleman is something. It was to the point of annoyance.

“Yes, next. Will Hugo negotiate or go to war when the empire wants to kill my bride with fire in her eyes? It’s the same one way or another. Either way, there is a possibility of war.”

Natalie turned her head to look at Yuma.

‘Was he such an unanswerable character?

He was a difficult human being to understand. Even though he looks like a human who is good at trickery, sometimes he rushes like a boo or a room without a back.

It was like that when he saved himself, and it is like that now. Even when he only listened to Evan and ran all the way to Yoheim.

What does Yuma want to do? Why are you making such unfavorable choices again?

I couldn’t tell.

“What were you thinking when you accepted the request from Hella?”

“When an imperial princess asks a commoner for a favor, it becomes an order.”

“Because I know that even if I refused, it wouldn’t have been a big deal, right?”

“How can I decline your request?”

“Let me bite you now. Lady Catherine is right. This is crazy. I’ve been living these days, Empire is a really strange town. When I see you sometimes, you are the strangest of them all.”

Even Yuma knew. how crazy is this

However, Yuma thought that with this judgment, a new diplomatic relationship could be established between the Empire and Matan. It was not simply accepted because it was a request from Hella.

Quite a few problems could have been solved if Zishka became Hugo’s bride and Hugo chose to negotiate rather than war.

He was able to save Zishka, pay off his debt to Hella, and even shake off Yuma’s own feelings of debt.

If the negotiations between the Empress and Hugo are successful, it will be much easier to prepare for the Dragon Horse War.

Besides, the surviving Zishka will give a lot of testimony that will put Wonsel Ting and Hayes in trouble.

It was better to just kill them by making a justification for the dragon horse war.

He might be able to find a clue to find the black magician of Joheim through Zishka.

So this time, saving Zishka is a gamble in which all of these things can be solved in one shot if it succeeds.

“You know? If I can’t find a bride anyway, I’m in a position to be killed by Hugo. It’s a gamble worth taking for me.”

Yuma looked at Catherine and Natalie and said.

It was needless to say that since he had agreed to listen to Hella’s request anyway, there were eight years left before the deadline for the pact.

“I do not know. Father, let me be clear, if Yuma is wrong in this process, take revenge or not, as you please. step! You have to throw away the name of the Zach family.”

“Hey hey. Why are you always so harsh on this father…

“Stop talking.”

“I get it.”

“Don’t worry, Lady Catherine, I’ll make sure you don’t get revenge. It is necessary to work on the ground before passing Zishka degradation to Hugo.

It doesn’t make sense to blindly take the imperial princess.”

The party put their heads together for a while and discussed how to proceed.
