81. Organizing the Family (6)

“From what you’re saying, it looks like you came to get me.”

Hakim picked up a bottle of alcohol.

And then he poured alcohol into the glass I pushed for him.

“He must be an assassin hired by Lydia, right?”

“No, I’m just one of the people of the empire.”

Citizen of the Empire.

When the prince heard that, he snorted.

“Did the people themselves come to see what I did wrong?”

The prince shrugged his shoulders with an extremely resentful expression.

“His brother and mother’s betrayal put him in this underground place. “It’s so unfair?”

I lifted the glass he gave me.

And. He raised the corners of his mouth and said.

“It’s unfair?”

When I asked, he smiled slyly.

However, the smile soon disappeared.

“There are thousands of people who were exploited while you were in power, and women who were forcibly taken in, drugged, and taken care of.”

Because I turned the glass he gave me upside down.

“Furthermore, he swore loyalty to the crown prince and even planned to kill his family.”

I roughly threw my glass away.

Instead, I picked up the watermelon that was lying in the basket and chewed it deliciously.

“Go back to your home country right now.”

The watermelon rind, which was thoroughly eaten, was placed on a plate.

And then, he said with a grin.

“If you don’t want to die by my hands.”

When the prince heard me, his red eyes twitched.

I can’t believe you’re so confident after returning to the enemy camp alone.

“You’re crazy. “You are urging yourself to obey.”

He no longer tried to draw me to his side.

I’m just giving orders to the knights.

“Kill him.”

The knights drew their swords in unison.

And then he looked up at me with harsh eyes.

The former commander of the Eastern Knights also stood up.

He sat down on the railing and ordered.

“There is no need to capture him alive. “The first one to cut off his head will be the next vice-captain.”

Hammus, the leader, knows that I am in the same level as him.

Nevertheless, he did not step forward himself but used his subordinates.

I stood up.

And he said as he placed his hand on Irina’s treasured sword.

“It’s like a leader hiding behind his subordinates. “Aren’t you embarrassed?”

Even after hearing what I said, Hammus remained calm.

On the contrary, he even took the time to raise the corners of his mouth.

“There is no use in making trivial provocations.”

I asked him why he followed Hakim even though he was a knight commander.

They were of the same tribe.

As if responding to this, I also turned my head.

“You guys listen carefully.”

Then, he looked down at the Eastern knights gathered in pitch black and made a request.

“Now, even though the leader knows my skills, he is putting you all at risk.”

The knights frowned at the word ‘limb’.

And then, they looked at each other with a shocked expression.

“He knew I was a sword master even before I came here.”

He confirmed it with golden mana in his eyes.

Then they pointed to the eye light and realized that what I said was true.

“In other words, I will not use you as subordinates but as a way to drain my strength.”

Just to relieve strength.

The knights all whispered about that trivial task.

“The proof is collusion with the crown prince.”

They pursed their lips as if they had already had a conflict with the crown prince’s army.

Thanks to this, I told them about the future ahead of them.

“It means that even if you are lucky enough to kill me, Leon’s knights will take over the important positions. “You idiots!”

In the past, these guys would have blindly trusted what Director Hammus said.

Because they must have been trained to do so.

But.

Nowadays, people drink alcohol and have fun.

And, I was tainted by evil.

We are filled with desire and doubt rather than trust in each other.

“So, the leader must be desperately hoping that you will become assholes while fighting with me.”

They did not immediately accept my sudden information.

However, just being confused is effective enough.

“What, how is things going?”

“Is that true?”

I raised my sword in the noisy crowd.

And then, he aimed at the Dongbu leader and asked.

From Noble mtl dot com

“Hey, leader, you’re not going to leave even after hearing these words?”

The corners of his mouth were raised wide beneath the fox mask.

And then, looking at the leader who had his lips pursed, he slyly trembled.

“These kids…”

Then, the Sword Master ran out of patience.

He shouted in a voice as loud as a thunderbolt.

“What are you doing if you’re not fighting! “This is an order!”

Is it because the space is underground?

Some loyalists came to their senses at his loud shout.

They wrapped their legs in mana and rushed towards me for the old leader.

However, I wasn’t embarrassed at all.

‘What I was aiming for in the first place was a situation like now where only a few people attack.’

Sword Auror.

The blade is wrapped in golden mana.

And then he swung with one hand towards the charging guys.

Kaaang!!

The three swords collided with my long sword at the same time.

Guys who are pushed aside due to the overwhelming difference in mana quality.

I took advantage of that split second to cut down one guy first.

“hahahaha… !”

After this, it was time for the two guys to come to their senses and attack again.

He rotated his body and killed him at the same time.

“….”

When the less loyal knights saw that, they hesitated.

“Commander Hammus, are you still not going to come forward?”

I asked, looking at the blood of the empire’s youth on the blade.

However, the Eastern Sword Master still does not step forward.

“Hit them at the same time. “If you somehow narrow the distance, a long sword won’t do much.”

He only silently gave orders from behind.

“Tsk! “It’s poisonous, it’s poisonous!”

5 Elite swordsmen rushing in.

They rushed towards my body as the leader ordered.

I swung my sword in the air at the guys.

Then, golden sword energy soared towards them.

“… !”

Is it because I rushed at it with all my might?

The guys were so close to avoiding the sword that they couldn’t attack.

Thanks to this, I was able to swing the sword with both hands with all my might.

One-handed swords break before the dense mana that has been condensed for a long time.

At the same time as they lost their weapons, their entire bodies were torn apart.

“Ugh….”

Knights writhing while lying on the floor.

They were breathing heavily and clutching their chests.

“You have to be so addicted to alcohol and drugs that you can’t even defend yourself against this.”

Compared to Lydia’s knights, they are at a poor level.

‘It’s disgusting to think that these guys are trying to take over the eastern part again.’

He will definitely be eaten by the crown prince later.

I passed by them without notice.

And then, looking at Captain Hammus on top of the pavilion, he spoke.

“There are already 8 people. “The knights became assholes because of you.”

Blood drips from the long sword on his shoulder.

The leader looked down at the blood in silence.

“If you don’t come forward to the end, I think you will lose trust forever?”

Hammus glanced away.

Then, he faced Hakim, who was looking at him indifferently.

The look on his face as if he was really not going to come out.

The prince, who has already lost eight knights, is also quite displeased.

“….”

It was only then that Hammus came down from the pavilion.

And then, he looked straight down at me with his massive figure.

“Bring my sword!!”

A loud voice.

As if responding to this, a knight came holding a greatsword that was nearly 2 meters long with both hands.

He lifted the great sword with one hand.

And then, he spoke to me as if he was being kind to me.

“I will allow you to attack first.”

‘When will you send your subordinates away first?’

“Good.”

I wrapped Irina’s long sword in brilliant golden mana.

Then, it wrapped around my whole body.

Colors bright enough to be seen from afar.

If it were on the ground, the crown prince might have seen it, so I tried to hide it as much as possible.

However, this is an underground city.

Even if you express it as much as you want, no one will see it.

He released his power for the first time in a while and rushed towards the Sword Master.

And then I swung my sword with all my might towards the guy’s neck.

―――.

Hammus stares straight at the afterimage with his golden eyes.

He immediately raised his great sword and defended his neck.

With only one hand, like me.

Kaaan―――!!

The knights stared blankly at the battle between sword saints they had never seen before.

I soon lost my mind.

“The weight of the sword is infinitely light.”

The leader who was defending immediately grabbed the hilt of his sword with both hands….

Because he pushed my sword away and launched a huge golden sword energy.

“Even if they are the same sword master, the weight they carry is different!”

A strike as brilliant as a crescent moon passed through my mask.

Thanks to you, I ended up with a cut on my cheek.

Cough—-.

The building that the sword energy collided with collapsed.

Thanks to this, the already closed underground city was filled with dust.

However, the guy didn’t care.

Mana was released without hesitation, as if enjoying the first battle in a long time.

―――.

Continuous slashing powerful enough to collapse entire underground cities.

I firmly accepted all of this.

When the blades clashed together dozens of times.

In the end, there was no one left around us.

Everyone just steps back and swallows deeply.

“Whoa…” .”

In the dust, the leader took a deep breath.

And then, he looked at me seriously as we competed together.

“That’s strange. “The first attack was obviously extremely light.”

The more I fight, the more I feel like my sword gains more and more power.

The leader sensed that feeling and frowned his golden eyes.

I also felt it.

As I compete with sword masters of the same level, my skills are gradually returning.

No.

His attack awakened the sleeping power of my past life.

“Are you starting to get nervous?”

I began to feel a subtle vibration from the basement ceiling.

Furthermore, dirt particles fall like hail.

The brutal attacks launched by Hammus were shaking the ground.

Then, the moment a piece of dirt falls in front of us.

“I’ll finish it right away.”

The middle-aged knight commander approached me in an instant, leaving an afterimage.

As if they were trying to stop me from becoming stronger.

As if responding to this, I also clashed my long swords.

――――――!!

The swords roared at each other and red sparks flew.

Through the flames, we competed for the mana accumulated in our bodies.

“You’re stupid. “You’re challenging me to a mana competition!”

The eastern leader who went into battle with the emperor for decades.

He pushed me with his mana that had been condensed all this time.

But.

“… ?”

He soon felt it.

My mana has already risen to the same level as his.

“What is this…?” !”

Is it because I put all my strength into it?

The guy’s wrinkles were boiling.

However, my face inside the fox mask did not move at all.

Then the leader let go of one of his arms that was holding the hilt of his sword.

Then, he spun backwards and swung his sword at the same time.

A skill shared only among knight commanders.

He was planning to end me with this one last blow.

―――.

However, he overlooked it.

The other party has also learned the techniques of the knight commanders.

I also spun and swung my sword after the knight commander.

And before he could even strike me.

“Wow… !”

First, I cut off his chest.

The golden light disappeared from Hammus’ pupils.

He fell to his knees, looking down at his own blood gushing out.

Cow!!

He barely looked up at me with his red, bloodshot eyes.

Then, he asked in a boiling voice.

“How did you see through it?” .”

I approached him silently.

And, he said while rubbing the leader’s blood on his mask.

“If you’re a knight commander, I’ve dealt with you in a past life.”

“You’ve dealt with leaders… ?”

This means that the pale-faced, young-looking swordsman has already fought against numerous sword saints.

At those words, Hammus’ eyes trembled.

“Yes, thanks to you, I clearly remember the feelings of that time.”

The leader looked up at me blankly.

Then, he muttered in a hollow voice.

“What a strange guy.”

Director Kishi stared into the eyes inside my mask.

And, I asked for it.

“Can you show me your face?”

“Do you think I will recognize it when I see it?”

I took off the mask.

After that, I looked down at him with a calm expression.

“….”

When Hammus looked at his face, his face became even more incomprehensible.

He asked rather arrogantly.

“Who is it…?” ?”

In response to his question, I raised the corner of my mouth with a grin.

“I am a capital defense engineer.”

Subangsa Temple.

Originally, the eastern knights were a group that snorted and ignored them.

“This is ridiculous….”

Hammus smiled bitterly at the fact that he had been defeated by that group of men.

Then he looked at his men with a haggard face.

“You must not remain in the empire any longer.”

After hearing the leader’s words, the knights swallowed deeply.

“There is no hope for a mere defense engineer of the empire to be like this.”

And, I listened to his will.

“Everyone go back to your hometown…” .”

The saying is that rebellion is hopeless, so give up and save your life.

After saying those words, he fell to the rough ground.

Still, at the last moment, he was worthy of a knight commander.

‘If only I had met the owner well, things wouldn’t have turned out like this.’

I turned my head away from the fallen guy.

And, in this whole situation, I looked at the culprit.

“Now, shall we go out to see some sunlight together, Hakim?”
