Swordmaster’s Youngest Son Chapter 675

Chapter 675,

Chapter 172. Subsuming Shido

Tikan Ritra Tea House.

“You know what, Jin? These days, this Sandra Ziple is very happy.”

Wow!

said Sandra, biting into a Ritra cookie.

Hedo, who was sitting next to her, wiped the cookie powder off Sandra’s mouth with an expressionless face, and Jin felt that they were more like a woman than a butler and owner.

“Is it polite to ask why you’re happy in this case?”

“The fact that the word courtesy can come out of a lady’s mouth is really…”

“What?”

“I am thrilled. I hope you will continue to think about courtesy and dignity.”

“What are you saying, you’re not polite since you were born. Do ordinary people feel intimidated just by looking at those needlessly bulky muscles?”

“Swallow some cookies or something. Why can’t I eat it without spilling it when I was five years old or now?”

“Hedo takes care of everything, so why are you doing that?”

“Then, starting today, I won’t be helping you.”

“Then I will rip you to death!”

Jin even had the impression that they were like a pair of comic actors. When I listened to the two of them talking quietly, I often laughed.

“Why are you in a good mood? Sandra Zipple.”

“That’s because I see you so often these days! Haha.”

“Um… I see.”

Telling the pure-blooded jiple and the unidentified superhuman tower keeper to betray the jiple.

Except for Beradin, he never imagined that the day would come when he would say such a thing to another Ziffle.

‘The one holding the key is Hedo, not Sandra.’

On the surface, Hedo was absolutely obedient to Sandra, but Jin thought Hedo had the real initiative between them.

Of course, Hedo follows Sandra’s words even if he doesn’t understand them.

But there was a certain line. If Sandra made a request that crossed the line, Hedo would never respond, and even if Sandra cursed or begged him, that was all.

The final decision on the matter rests with Hedo.

“Every time the lady shows such a positive expression, so the 12th Horseman is telling me to come and go when he is so casual. Even a romantic relationship sometimes requires a push and pull of mystery. This means that Gene Runkandel cannot find her attractive.”

“Hmm… That sounds like something worth listening to. But as far as I know, Hedo has never been in a relationship, so how do you know him so well?”

“A day is 24 hours, lady. And I’m not with her for an average of five hours of that time.”

“Then you’re saying that you used those five hours to date? tower keeper.”

Jin asked.

I was really curious. Hedo was only the second-class butler and tower keeper, but in reality he was acting as the highest-ranking executive of Jiple.

If so, the work or work to be done for the remaining five hours will be considerable, but it is questionable whether it is possible to have a relationship in that time.

“…okay. Is that strange?”

“It is a little strange. It seems that the position of Zipple’s top executive is not as busy as I thought.”

“My God, I thought Jin would pay more attention to Hedo than to me! Are you crazy Hedo!? Are you wagging your tail like this?”

“I’m not a top executive, I’m just a butler, 12th Horseman.”

“I’m just a butler…”

Jin’s eyes narrowed.

“Then I’d like to make a job offer.”

I didn’t have to say it back.

“great!”

Sandra immediately nodded, her eyes twinkling, but Hedo’s eyes sharpened.

“A job offer?”

“exactly.”

“Do you know what you are talking about?”

“I know that clearly.”

“Then pretend you didn’t hear.”

“Hehe, why again!”

“Why not go again, lady. Right now, the 12th Horseman is telling the lady and me to betray the family.”

“How is that? I told you to do that before.”

“My lady, there is a sense of going back and forth in my head, so it can be, but this is something a 12 Horseman shouldn’t do. The alliance is only temporary, and Zipple and Runcandel are incompatible in the end.”

-It was only a few years ago that I almost got hit by Hedo in the Sota Desert. Back then, Hedo overpowered Jin and his party, but what about now?

-What are you talking about?

-Will you be able to win?

-I don’t think so. I expected it because I was alone in the Garden of Swords, but seeing it up close is a different feeling.

– Look! If it’s Jin, there’s definitely a possibility. I didn’t think so at first either, so it’s not Hedo’s fault. So why don’t you do what I said last time… Oh, what a surprise!

A conversation between Hedo and Sandra in the Kaldran Snow Field.

In fact, Sandra had been arguing to Hedo to stand on Jin’s side from before. Hedo is vehemently refusing.

“Isn’t it just because of the old grudge between Zipple and Runkandel?”

“okay.”

“You are not a pure-blooded jeep. It doesn’t seem like you have any particular personal grudge against Runkandel or the Barmal Alliance.”

“That’s right, you’re not pureblood. I, a pureblood, said I would betray you, but why are you stopping me!”

“I have no personal grudges. But now it’s about to happen. Don’t you feel that you are overusing the lady’s romance?”

“It’s a piece of cake for Jin to use me! And even if you use it, what’s wrong with that? Am I good enough?”

“It may seem that way. But I am saying this not just for the benefit of me or Runkandel, but for you.”

It was sincere.

Jin, of course, can’t understand Sandra’s feelings for him, and she feels like a mysterious person.

I’ve been through a few incidents with her over the past few years, and I’ve developed a kind of camaraderie and compassion.

Because of this, Jin was convinced that as long as Sandra continued to stay in Zipple, her future would be disastrous.

“Sandra, step aside for a minute.”

“I hate that.”

“Just stay here, lady.”

“I’ll make you dinner later, in about 30 minutes.”

“I’ll go have a cup of tea with Enya!”

When Sandra disappears, only Jin and Hedo remain in the tea shop. Hedo wiped his glasses and took out a cigarette as if he was uncomfortable.

“It’s no smoking here.”

The button on Hedo’s shirt bounced in the direction of Jin at the muscles that swelled even more. Hedo, who lit the fire as it was, burned one cigarette in one breath.

Gray smoke blocked the two of them for a moment.

“I don’t think there’s any reason for me to be polite when you cross the line.”

“Let me understand that much. From my point of view, Tower Keeper, you owe your allegiance to Sandra Ziple, not to Ziple.”

Sandra Zipple, not Zipple.

That’s what I felt from the first time I saw Hedo.

The origin of that absolute loyalty is unknown, but Hedo will definitely choose the latter when he has to choose between Zipple and Sandra Zipple.

“Am I wrong?”

Hedo took out the next cigarette and burned it instead of answering.

“I understand that means. So I can’t understand any more. What do you think will be the end if Sandra Ziple remains in the family?”

“It will be the same as now.”

“I met Beradin a while ago. He lost his memory and became a magic swordsman living golem, becoming a different person than before. I thought that Sandra would also end up falling victim to the experiment.”

“You’re not going to be like that, Jean Runkandel.”

“Is it because you protect Sandra Ziple?”

“okay.”

“I don’t understand. Does the protection you speak of allow for any level of experimentation on Sandra?”

Sandra is already a living golem. She was able to use some of the powers of time in some way, and possessed super regeneration and unmatched physical abilities.

“I don’t think Sandra Zipple’s rather peculiar state of mind and the experiments she underwent are very related.”

“Miss Sandra is naturally strange. It has nothing to do with the experiment.”

“That’s good, but are you sure it will be like that in the future? If you change like Beradin, can you really call it Sandra Ziple?”

“That is not for you to judge.”

“It’s not for you to judge. It’s up to Sandra to decide. Besides, what kind of protection is that? You’re going to allow experiments up to the point where people don’t break down, and you’ll protect them beyond that? Are you really keeping Sandra by your side with that thought?”

“I responded to the call today to find out the identity of my sword, I did not come to Tikan with the intention of becoming a traitor. And the experiment…”

Hedo’s brows narrowed as if some memory came to him.

“…that’s what the lady wanted.”

“You sound cowardly. Even if Sandra wanted it, she wouldn’t really think it was right to let her become a test subject. Or did you decide that Sandra needs at least that level of regenerative ability to protect her under any circumstances?”

“Then what can you do for me?”

“what?”

Hedo rose from his seat.

“Let’s say that Lady Sandra betrayed Zipple. next? Can you and the Barmal Alliance always protect Lady Sandra as number one? Even if the entire alliance is wiped out, would you prioritize Lady Sandra?”

“Of course not.”

“You are obviously strong. You will be stronger than me now. But when the fight with Rosa is over and the alliance is broken, I still can’t picture you defeating Ziple. Even if I go under you and add strength, the same is true.”

“So you’re saying I’ll bet Sandra’s life on the side that’s more likely.”

“okay. Even if Lord Shiron had made the same offer, I would have rejected it. Now that I’ve said this, I want you to stop understanding and give up.”

“Then, can you understand that I will accept your offer when I have the power to completely overwhelm Zipple?”

Hedo nodded without even thinking.

“However much. If you give me that kind of assurance, I could beg you to accept me and the young lady even if you refuse.”
