26 – 6-Holy Son, Holy Son.

The Rodal tribe, who fled from Homeland in the past, made Stemwind their capital under the flag of the Caldarin Empire and sprouted a civilization on the continent of Esteria.

However, even the founding ideology of driving out demons and reclaiming the homeland fades after 300 years.

The Kaldarin Empire has become a sick man full of corruption.

At that time, the Oxburg Empire was founded by the first emperor, who was a Toho in the central region, along with De Yewitz, the first family head, who was the commander of the Humanity Lighthouse at that time, and the first family head.

Crossing countless lines of death, the Human Lighthouse Corps acted as the first emperor’s bodyguard and protected him until the regime was stabilized.

In the process, the Humanity Lighthouse became the only knightly order in the empire, and the first Commander, the first De Yeezitz family, took control of the Humanity Lighthouse, changed the commandership from an elective system to a hereditary one, and established an independent command authority.

The trust of the first emperor in the Lighthouse of Humankind and the first De Yewitz family was so strong that the first emperor handed over the entire northern part of the Caldarin Empire to the first De Yewitz family and even granted them enormous autonomy.

There was no other family that could stabilize the north as much as the Djejitz family, which inherited the blood of the first king.

Thus, despite the title of marquis given to the family that protects the frontier, the vast autonomy that is practically no different from that of a king passed into the hands of the de Yewitz family.

That became the current Principality of Dejejitz.

“I can roughly guess the thoughts of the first emperor. I maintained the imperial authority in the central region, where the power base was strong, while entrusting the chaotic northern region to my right-hand man, the first de Yewitz family. In fact, the first de Yewitz family As the first emperor wished, he was loyal and stabilized the north.”

The problem is that the reward was excessive even for a founding contributor, and that the first emperor passed away before the reward was properly collected.

When the first emperor died, and after a prince’s rebellion swept the empire, and his eldest son took over the crown, the de Yewitz family was not big enough to do anything as a central power.

The Imperial Knights also belonged to the De Yeevitz family, and much of the power that the Caldarin Empire had built over the past 300 years was also taken by the De Yeevitz family.

Therefore, the second emperor must have thought like this.

If the de Yewitz family rebels, it will be suppressed even if the empire splits.

However, there is no need to scrape and make scum on this side.

“Since then, the emperor has been more focused on pioneering the southern part of Muju, rather than the northern part where the griffins nest, and the De Yeevitz family has been loyal to the imperial family as before. So, 200 years later, until recently, De Yeyitz’s The Tsu family reigned like kings.”

“Yes, until recently. Let’s finish the homework check here.”

Even though it wasn’t a long time, Amber studied diligently.

But it must end here.

“There is still a long way to go. The latest trends in the north, the current emperor’s political ambitions, and the impact of the southern conquest…”

“I ate all the rice long ago!”

It’ll make you spoon over an empty bowl a few more times!

Amber left with a satisfied face when I fired at her.

I’m going to search for a vase after accepting that crazy b*tch.

Staring at Amber’s back as she goes back to her chores, I suddenly thought of something and asked her.

“Ah, do you know how to babysit?”

Amber made a face as she pointed her finger at herself and said, ‘Did you really ask me that?’

“If you’re a kid, you’re looking at one. I don’t know if you can see it well.”

“Get off now.”

Definitely a stupid question.

I should have asked the person to ask.

*

The procession stretched longer than expected, and the sun went down faster in the mountains than in the plains.

Returning to Stemwind, the Humanity Lighthouse team busied themselves in the inevitable camp after eating.

At times like this, there are people who are busier than others, and there are also people who leisurely watch busy people.

The former were rookies who joined the Humanity Lighthouse this time, and the latter were veterans who had plenty of time.

The attributes of an organization seem to be similar in any era and in any place.

Barton, who had been wrestling with the tent for a long time, turned his head with a face that said something had come from the pat on the back.

There were four veteran Knights of the Lighthouse of Humanity who must have seen him tirelessly.

“Keukkeuk, our witty knight shouldn’t do such a thing, right?”

“Would you like to go over there with us and share that joke?”

Like the juvenile delinquents who crippled the alleys during their school days, the seniors went into the mountains with Barton on their shoulders.

On a deserted mountain where crickets and owls chirped, the beatings continued for a while, submerged in the clamor of preparations for camping.

“Why is our witty knight silent? Can you show me the witticism that possessed the Great Devil of Plague?”

“I heard that Prince Bjorn wears it already. Wouldn’t it be nice if you rode well, you bastard? Huh?”

Barton did not groan at the absurdity pouring out of him.

Even though he could handle mana, he was still at the level of a normal person.

The beatings of the sword users were not tolerable.

Especially if it lasts for several days.

“The seniors call the newcomers separately to improve their skills. Is that the expression on their faces?”

“…….”

In the dark, I could feel the feeling of wanting the painful moment to just pass by in the dimly visible face of Barton.

However, he was unlikely to go where Barton wanted.

It’s because they’re not bullying with simple speculation.

“So, you want to run right now to the prince and tell him that we are bullying you? Let’s go at ease, please.”

Stepping on the face of Barton rolling on the floor with his foot, the knight said that he was tired of it.

It was the accent typical of the Haenrel region, mixed with the accent of the central region.

They were inducing De Jewitz’s eldest son to get angry with them and to investigate the crime after hearing Barton’s assault.

If Bjorn Dejewitz asked what he had done to Barton, he intended to punish him for personally taking care of the practice.

“It’s about time the prince noticed. Maybe I should have aimed at him, Amber Cutter.”

“Didn’t you see his eyes? Seniors and juniors, all of them are 7 years old. Rumors say that he’s overseeing the sword expert, but if you touch him, you won’t be able to dig his bones out.”

The two knights, who were just watching the assault on Barton from behind, opened their mouths.

“Or maybe you noticed it and pretended not to know it like a coward. Maybe if you grew up with that mother.”

“Come to think of it, I haven’t heard anything about her mother. You know what?”

“I’ve never seen it myself. From what I’ve heard, she was the youngest daughter of the von Lorraine family, a ducal family, but they said she was a witch who sold one eye to the devil. Even though she’s a collateral, she’s a descendant of the imperial family, so she was told that she was sold like a whore to the De Jejitz family. Such a parent. Since he was born from below, his personality must be shady and cowardly.”

“My king has a good stomach for eating rice cakes with a one-eyed witch.”

“Hmm. There’s no food my father can’t eat.”

“What is a father… Huh?”

Hearing the unfamiliar voice behind him, the knight turned his head.

From noble mtl dot com

Where his gaze landed, ‘How am I going to crush these bastards?’ I stood there drooling and glaring at myself.

“You coolly insult your boss like there’s no tomorrow. Is there anything else you want to say? I’ll listen to you because I’ll be gone soon.”

“That, that’s… I’m sorry!”

The knights came in with their heads bowed cool enough to make me wonder if they were the ones the prince was talking about just a moment ago.

Of course.

These guys are aiming to face me, not to fight for their lives.

I personally heard insults from superiors at a level where I would have nothing to say even if my throat was blown off, so useless excuses only make me angry.

“Is that all you have to say? If it were me, I would have said it more carefully.”

Of course, I have no intention of accepting an apology.

Curse your father? No.

Rather, I want to open a swearing contest with a prize money.

Then you bullied Barton? I’m a little angry, but that’s it.

Since he received excessive praise compared to his skills, Barton will have no choice but to run into people who will continue to be jealous of him.

You have to take it upon yourself.

There is only one reason why I do not forgive them.

Just because I want to win.

‘To be able to beat people properly is so thrilling!’

You can use violence against others while intoxicated with a sense of justice.

What a thrilling sense of immorality!

“hahahaha! Double Sidekick!”

“Ugh! Please save me…”

“Uhh, quick mana. Does it fit your bones?”

The beatings were long and deep.

To the extent that my whole body becomes as soft as minced meat, but with all my strength so that I can walk when I wake up tomorrow.

“Haa, I was afraid of this, so I kept my mouth shut.”

As the assault continued, Barton sighed.

It was after the consciousness of the knights had already flown over there.

“Even Bjorn-nim knows no. If you open a fight like this, gossip will come out.”

“That’s right. That’s what these bastards were after.”

“But why…”

I punched the approaching Barton in the abdomen.

His back bent to match the angle of the fist thrust into his abdomen.

“Heuk! Kuk!”

It will be difficult to breathe properly for a while due to the strong shock that is stuck in the lungs.

I looked down at Barton as he rolled across the floor breathing heavily.

“Barton, you did something wrong. Why didn’t you tell me that this very thing happened?”

Barton slowly corrected himself, sat down, and excused himself.

“……A knight……a mere……if you give in to this level of violence and report to your superiors……you will be ignored.”

“It’s an ideal attitude for a member of the organization, but this injustice was not aimed at you. It was aimed at me being friendly with you. You did not report this fact to me even though you knew it, and I was later stabbed in the back.” I realized.”

“……”

“That’s great. Now you’re taking care of them so that they can f*ck those little puppies.”

The jealousy or envy that Barton deserves is his.

I can’t accept that instead.

However, if I am at the end of the arrow wrapped with jealousy and envy, it’s a different story.

This time, it was a departure from the small-scale knights from Haenrel, but Stemwind, the capital of the north, was different.

If this happens amidst all sorts of fraud and politics, it will be difficult for me to protect myself.

“……If I behave lightly, Bjorn-sama will look light. I couldn’t have acted like that.”

“The one who puts the rope on doesn’t have to worry about the one who draws the line. I’m the one who handles the gossip. And if you don’t want to appear light, improve your skills.”

I spat out cold words at Barton and called out to the idiot who was lowering himself in the dark.

“Amber! When you’re done watching, clean up these small puppies.”

Amber appeared confidently as if she had been waiting to be called.

“Ask these guys for their sins, confiscate the horses until they reach Stemwind, and hand over all the chores entrusted to you and Barton. The eldest son of the De Yewitz family is one of them. Tell them you’re going to cut out your tongue.”

At my command, Amber nodded and said.

“Can I add a sentence to that name? For example, immersing yourself in training with me all night.”

Even in this situation, Amber’s eyes were too cold to ask if she was joking.

What, why are you so angry?

Seeing her for the first time, I unknowingly avoided her eyes and blurted out her words.

“……That, only for an hour.”

Amber, but they are your seniors…….
