chapter 29
29 – 6-Holy Son, Holy Son.
Lunaa knelt in front of Mion and spoke in a sweet voice.
It was a 180 degree change to the point where I wondered if it was the guy I was arguing with.
“……A saint? I’m a saint. I think something’s wrong…”
It wasn’t difficult to read the confused emotions on Mion’s face.
It’s not enough that he was suddenly dragged away by the Knight of the Lighthouse of Humanity, and the Knight of the Holy Cross honors him as a saint, so it’s not easy for a 12-year-old to understand the situation.
“Holy Son, I’m sure you’re confused. I’ll explain slowly on the way to church.”
A gentle smile and a warm voice like the warm breeze of spring soiled my ears.
But Mion took a few steps back from her.
It was like being on guard.
It didn’t take long for me to realize why Mion was like that.
Her decapitated corpse and a little bit of blood spattered on her armor made it hard to see young Mion.
Noticing Mion’s reaction, Amber put on Mion’s clock hood to block his vision.
At this point, I stood in front of Lunaa.
“To believe that a saint was born in the North! Besides, that saint is the boot of the De Jewitz family! This is the red fortune of the North!
“……What are you doing now?”
What are you going to do? Knowing
“The honor of leading the saint belongs to the Knights of the Holy Cross. I have no intention of taking that away. However, since the saint currently belongs to the de Yewitz family, I hope His Majesty will send you an official letter!”
I went over the ritual.
Anyway, the Dejewitz family declared that they would receive it as boots.
So, if His Majesty announces the birth of the saint and sends a letter to take him to the imperial family, I will hand over the lukewarm response.
This request was based on the calculation that the North would somehow put a finger on the saint’s birth.
On the surface, that is.
‘Your Majesty will also try to use the birth of a saint properly, so it will take time to prepare. As short as two months, as long as three months.’
[Anyway, isn’t that just a way to earn time? In the end, you have to hand Mion over to the Knights of the Holy Cross.]
‘Because how to use that period is my competency.’
I was evasive to Jin, but at that time it will be difficult for the emperor to send a formal letter to the north.
Even if he were to send it, it wouldn’t be a situation where he would easily let go of the saint.
“Oh, by the way, His Majesty has instructed me to keep my mouth shut until I send an official letter.”
A person’s mouth is not blocked by blocking it, but it can be made into nonsense for a while.
This was tantamount to a declaration that the saint would not be used until the official recognition of the emperor came out.
It was a huge concession from the point of view of the De Yewitz family, who can strengthen their political influence as saints until the letter arrives.
But that’s the story of the DeYevitz family.
Where is the de Jewitz family’s political influence growing?
When the north is infested with the birth of a saint, my heroic story will be buried.
From my point of view, there is absolutely no reason to be self-absorbed.
As if swallowing anger, Runea’s hand went back and forth between the scabbard several times, but she soon controlled her emotions.
“I admit it. Your political skills are as good as the middle aristocrats who eat away at the Oxburg Empire. I would never have thought of your grandfather in the north.”
“I take it as a compliment.”
“But you don’t seem to know the essence of politics.”
“…… Huh?”
“If you make a mistake, pulling out a knife is also politics.”
The sword that had been dormant in the waist of Sureung and Lunaa eventually showed itself unbearably.
I knew right away what Lunaa was going to do.
“Don’t worry. I won’t kill you all. I’m good enough for that.”
This idiot intends to knock down the lighthouse here and kidnap Mion!
‘Sheesh, did you notice!’
The sudden change in her attitude means that here she noticed that if she missed Mion, it would be difficult for her to take her to the capital.
Once a saint is stranded in the North. The De Yewitz family will drag on with all sorts of excuses.
There will be a bloody political battle for a while, and the Knights of the Holy Cross will have to suck their fingers.
If you don’t intend to go to war to send a holy son, only the North has been upset.
But likewise, if Lunea forcibly kidnaps Mion and takes her to the central region, there’s not much they can do about it, no matter how furious the De Yewitz family is.
It’s enough to make excuses.
When asked why they were in a riot, the northern part interfered, there was interference from the Demonic Church, etc. The reason is that if you take it roughly and attach it, the emperor will take care of it from then on.
Runea accurately grasped my intentions and broke through using her own strength of powerful force.
Taking advantage of a moment’s gap, Amber started talking to me.
“I’m presumptuous to say this, but that woman, if she’s wrong, she’ll be damned with Bjorn-sama…”
“Say no more. It is an order.”
Today is the third time!
And when did I give a f*ck when I was wrong!
Haa, it seems that it has reached this point in the end.
I had no choice but to draw my sword.
Runea laughed and looked down at me. She
She seemed to be saying, ‘I wanted to take care of it, but it went well.’
“I hope that her sword skills are as good as her words.”
She is a monster who has broken through the limits of the human race, and is a sword master who is in the front row.
Then I only have one thing to do.
I gritted my teeth and raised my sword.
And then, despite being afraid, he shouted with sincerity to the Knights of the Lighthouse of Humanity, who were competing swords against Runea.
“The Lighthouse of Humanity! Stop that woman with the determination to die! No, stop it even if you die!”
I spit out lines like the villains of third-rate novels and ran to the forest to search for them while holding Mion.
“Bjorn?! Bjorn?! Hey, you scumbag!”
I heard a cry identical to Amber’s, but I couldn’t believe it.
There is no knight in the world who insults his lord as trash.
What about the lord who appointed such a knight?
It must be an illusion.
The sound of beatings did not last long.
The verbal abuse and shouting stopped when I ran away from the street before it stopped.
Even though I was running away with all my magic while holding Mion, who was staring at me with a dumbfounded face.
‘Sheesh, it’s already been sorted.’
Then, the only thing to try was the belief that the search ability of the leader of the Holy Cross Knights would be lame.
Because strength and search are two different things.
Finding hidden enemies in the forest is not an easy task.
It’s good if you don’t get lost.
“Your cunning is better than rumored swordsmanship.”
Expectations cooled quickly and coldly.
Lunea couldn’t even search, so when I took one step, she caught up with three steps.
It looked as if it was folding space and running.
Is this the case with Gyeonggong in Martial Arts?
It was a skill that could not even be imitated.
Truly a sword master.
Because of its brilliance, it’s hopeless for opponents.
“How about it. If you stop here and hand the holy saint over to me, I’ll finish it off with a few punches.”
“f*ck me. There’s nothing to f*ck me with.”
“What, what?! You nerdy kid!!”
To my provocation, Runea showed a fresh reaction.
Ah, come to think of it, it’s not a fresh reaction, but that’s normal.
I forgot because I was pickled so much by Amber.
“Don’t even think about coming back intact after saying such vulgar words to me! I’ll break some places!”
“You’re good at dealing with kids, you lady!”
As soon as I finished speaking, sword spirit flew through the wind.
“Oops!! Only a few places are broken! They say it’s broken!”
“Ajumma, did you say no…? Let alone dating, I couldn’t even hold a man’s hand properly… Aunt…? Do you know how sad it is that I don’t have any experience with men at this age?!!”
Could it be that the vice-captain of the Knights of the Holy Cross is a woman who gets scratched by her aunty voice?
In this day and age, not even mass stores use such old cliches!
Runea’s face was wrathful, and her arms fell off as she swung her sword.
Every time she swung, a huge sword blade cut down her tree and cut her whole.
“Come on, I’ll cut your dick today as you wish!!”
“Oh, that sucks.”
“Shut up!!”
I was satisfied with the development of the mass market, but it was no joke as much as the black energy pouring down on me.
Runea was wearing a sword like her machine gun, which made it difficult for me to fire it several times.
I, obviously the weak one, couldn’t deal with the penalty of running away with Mion.
I said to Mion, who was held in my arms like a princess.
“Mion, what do you want to do?”
“……Yes?”
“I’m asking if you want to stay in the North or be led to the Central by the hands of the Knights of the Holy Cross. We don’t have much time, so keep your thoughts short.”
After a short silence, Mion opened her mouth with her clear eyes as if she had made up her mind on something.
“I’m going to the Knights of the Holy Cross. Please stop.”
“……Is that so?”
Unknowingly, I bit her lip.
Mion was a necessary talent to get through this world.
I wanted to hold on to it.
If she had enough time, she might have been able to convince me for a while.
But if it’s Mion’s will, then she should be respected.
The human mind is not something that can be obtained by force.
I dropped him off according to Mion’s will.
When I stopped, Runea’s sword also stopped.
“You won’t be able to speak properly for a while because you’ve been squeezed by me. If you have anything to say, pour it out now.”
Having seized the victory, Lunaa was proud of herself.
Is that something a grown adult would say to a 15-year-old?
My belly is flat, but I can’t help it.
It was a complete defeat in which both skills and strategic goals were lost.
What else can a loser do?
“Are you gonna f*ck me?”
I’m going to have to scratch my nerves properly at this point.
f*ck, I can’t even sleep because I’m unfair at this rate!
“I-I!! I’ll let you lie down moaning for a few days!”
“Wait a minute, before that, the Holy Son said he has something to say.”
Finally coming to her senses, Runea approached Mion and knelt down on his knees.
Without being able to control his reddened face.
“Holy Son, I apologize for being rude. Can you forget the fuss for a while?”
“Don’t worry. I forgot everything.”
“Thank you. Then come with me to the central region.”
“No. I will stay in the North.”
