Sword Pilgrim

Episode 194

The sharp edge of the sword.

Where Colius’ sword pointed was a mace.

“You don’t need a mace to win the sword.”

His voice echoing the Great War pointed to the delegation of the Principality.

A huge insult from the principality’s point of view.

However, things weren’t so good.

The gongnyeo answered steadfastly.

“Hundreds of thousands of troops will come.”

as little as ten thousand.

But right now, it seemed to be her only weapon.

“Can you break the sword with an army of 100,000?”

“Why not?”

It was even buried in arrogance. Unlike before, it was the attitude that Carpe, which had become a small country, could be destroyed at any time.

“Then why didn’t you do it before?”

“That’s…”

“Isn’t the principality also afraid?”

“…”

Although they say they stand shoulder to shoulder with the empire, how long will that last?

The Empire put the shield in front.

The spears of the different races were also put up.

But what happened to them all?

Everyone was beaten by the Empire.

But would such an empire leave the principality alone? An empire is not an empire for nothing.

It is an empire that has been swallowed metallurgically and swelled up.

The Empire must also be aiming for the principality.

The principality could not be unaware of this.

The more the empire achieved peace and prosperity, the more the principality would gradually tremble with fear.

That’s why he couldn’t actively engage in carpe, which was like a thorn in the eye of the empire. Because you never know when the empire will catch you back.

But now you’re playing carpe?

In the meantime, without knowing how the empire might change? This is just blackmail.

“If you want to do it, do it. Carpe is not afraid of anything.”

“Wouldn’t you be afraid if the empire and we held hands and played carpe?”

If the Principality plays Carpe alone, there is a high possibility that the Empire will stab them in the back.

But what if you play together?

If you actively participate together, it will be difficult to prevent the destruction of Carpe.

The princess was saying that.

“You won’t be able to do that.”

“Why?”

“Because the saintess of the empire is in my hands.”

“!!”

Callius immediately got down on one knee to the queen, took a small bottle and a spear from her bosom at the same time, and presented herself.

“Count What is this?”

“This is the holy water of the empire.”

“!”

buzz buzz.

Why is the holy water of the empire in his hand?

“And this spear is the holy spear Raphael.”

A spear held in the hands of successive saints.

It was a holy spear that symbolized the empire.

In other words, it is in the hands of Colius. Saying that a saintess fell at his hands.

“How…”

“I was lucky.”

Colius explained his journey to the world in front of his subjects.

What happened to infiltrate the empire.

There, he met the dragon, met the spears of the empire, and eventually met and fought with the fallen and the saint.

“Isn’t it something that can’t be explained by saying that I was lucky?”

They destroyed Voltan, the main city of the Empire, in half, burned a flower garden that produced holy water, and annihilated dragons and corruptors.

In addition, he defeated three imperial spears and captured the saintess.

Even if it was just one, it was a succession of achievements that would leave a mark in the country and returned.

How could he not be offended at such a neglect of such a national hero!

The queen wanted to open the treasury right away and hold a festival.

“majesty! The Count’s words are too far-fetched and hard to believe.”

“I still hear that…”

It is true that it is hard to believe.

It was hard to believe that Carpe’s moniker had been rooted in Colius for a long time.

“But if what he said is true, this is Carpe’s blessing. So, why don’t you cover the truth of the matter first?”

“Hmm… I think so too. But the holy water and holy spear he carries are more than enough. Do you have any more items to prove your journey, Count?”

“yes. Some of them are with us.”

Lactus Tears.

Or a sword made of gatekeepers.

There are also companions and saints who have traveled together and seen her in person.

A lot to prove.

“okay.”

The Queen’s mouth loosens.

A kind smile bloomed.

It was then.

“The author made fun of me! How will you compensate for this?”

The gongnyeo’s angry voice resonated throughout the Daejeon. At her voice, the aristocrats leaning toward Colius murmured.

“Have you ever done that?”

“doesn’t exist. I don’t know what great position the princess of the duchy has, but it’s probably worse than the saintess of the empire.”

It means you don’t care.

The princess’s face frowned.

“For what reason would I have made fun of the gongnyeo? Insulting me is like insulting Carpe. It looks like the princess has at least two lives.”

“What is the reason for invading the capital?”

“As a vassal of Carpe, the first person I need to meet is the king of a country. I just took a natural step.”

I couldn’t tell you how many people suffered for that natural step. The nameless aristocrat already noticed that talking more would only hurt him.

A man who broke through the royal castle single-handedly.

Nothing good will happen outside of his eyes. The atmosphere has already been leaning toward Colius for a long time.

It’s a plate that has to say that there is no sin.

“Why are you so…”

“In the country of the sacred sword, the mace is disturbing national affairs, so it is right to punish it.”

“What! Why is Carpe punishing the delegation!”

“Are there any good rooms?”

“I will imprison the princess of the duchy who tried to fool Carpe with three tongues in Beria’s catacombs.”

Beria’s catacombs!

Beria, who was the leader of a group made up of the worst criminals.

Her tomb and prison where all mighty traitors and criminals are imprisoned.

Saying that he would imprison him there was no different from saying that he would kill the princess.

It’s the same as telling you to die if you enter an underground labyrinth where you don’t know how many floors it has.

“The principality will not stand still.”

“There is nothing wrong with that either. We have a saint in our hands. The empire cannot step out recklessly.”

“You see the empire as too watery. The emperor will be furious right away. Do you not know that He gives the cause for war?”

“I have Raphael and a saint in my hands.”

Emperors can never raise armies.

His life is a fall, not a continent.

“The emperor is not interested in one thing.”

All there is is to conquer the corrupted land.

A holy spear and a holy woman are absolutely necessary for that conquest. Even if he puts it off a little later, he won’t give up on the Holy Spear and the Holy Maiden.

‘I don’t know if it’s the prince.’

It’s not bad to break the power of the principality before fighting the empire.

and.

‘The princess herself brought about her own death.’

Princess Rebecca.

A trouble maker who would always create trouble if left unattended.

Killing her here wasn’t bad either, but the King was a bit annoyed.

‘Isn’t it true that there are no saints in the duchy?’

Killing isn’t the only skill.

It would be difficult for the principality to come out too aggressively. Although he didn’t show it on the outside, the principality was also strong from Carpe’s point of view.

It is natural that the second largest country on the continent is a principality. fгeewebnovёl.com

So, I can’t kill you right away.

Better to lock it up first.

Therefore, it is right to weaken the power of the Principality little by little and increase the national power.

Originally, a country develops in war.

The dukedom will become tasty prey for Carpe.

Principality between the Empire and Carpe.

It can be said to be the most ideal relationship.

“Leave it to me. I will restore Carpe’s former glory with these hands.”

thud!

Get up and drive the iron lord into the ground.

Whoaaaaa-!

The gray army that was fighting outside was filled with the great battle of the capital.

The gray corps, all exuding a lofty and hideous aura.

The queen was afraid of them, but also felt a bit of joy.

overwhelming force.

Because I saw its power now.

“My knight, Zervan. Do as you please. You were the one who saved Carpe. You will be the one who will lead us to victory.”

“Won’t disappoint.”

* * *

“Calliers!”

The woman’s high-pitched voice calling for Callius stopped him.

Climbing on Schniff, who was supposed to be quietly waiting for his master, Callius looked down at the owner of the voice that called him.

“Esther.”

“Where are you going?”

“I have work to do.”

There is a lot to do.

Colius decided to take charge of the affairs with the principality.

There were many people to meet and a lot of work to do.

“I will visit the church soon. I have a chance to meet the Pope, so see you then.”

You also have to hand over Balterus’ Tears to the Pope.

I have already spoken to the Queen and have been promised full support.

“Are you saying you made the castle a mess like this?”

“The story is already over. The queen said she would reward me.”

He did not hesitate to offer gold and silver treasures as prizes. Because the financial situation of the north was still in effect.

In addition to that, considering the preparations for war, money is not enough no matter how much money there is.

‘I should also meet Beatrice.’

I wanted to check what had happened to the swordsman I had entrusted to them, and I wanted to hear their opinions on Chang Seong-soo.

Considering Beatrice’s potential, Carpe might be able to make elixirs or stimulants like Chang Seongsu.

This is absolutely necessary as it leads to the reinforcement of military power and is directly related to victory in war.

Besides, there are many people with high potential in Carpe. If the children of the four nobles, as well as the current masters or those blocked by the wall, could only tear down the wall, how could they be afraid of war?

I wasn’t afraid at all.

The Empire saw this and called it Changseongsu, so it is right that Carpe should start working in earnest to make swordsmanship.

“I heard that Esther is helping Cedric and Beatrice accept God. Thank you.”

“…that was a natural thing to do. Carpe’s roots are because I don’t think there is a need to reject swords and other weapons.”

Convergence of different religions is also slowly taking place.

They still feel deeply rooted in public sentiment, but their presence will rise rapidly along with their performance in the war.

Then there is no big problem.

Originally, people become sticky in war.

“Are you really planning to fight the dukedom? The time is not yet right.”

“Now is the time. You can buy time with the empire, but the principality is always a headache. The time to weaken them will never come if it is not now.”

Rather, the possibility of Carpe’s destruction only increases, so it is better to withdraw the power of the principality now.

“Is it really possible?”

“Confidence is really scary. Maybe my confidence was wrong.”

“….”

“But I believe what I believe.”

Even if it’s the wrong sword, it’s better to stab it with all your might than to shake it.

Is the sword originally like that?

“Esther.”

“yes.”

“It is a thorny road. However, originally, there is no path in this world. If someone walks, that’s the way. You know.”

“…yes.”

Esther saw a crowd outside the city.

Since the uproar had broken out, it was only natural that the fortune tellers would gather.

“You really didn’t?”

“What do you mean?”

“No…then I’ll be waiting for you at the church.”

“Come see me soon.”

Hey.

Colius rides his iron-clad horse through the crowds, leisurely.

Esther’s eyes shone brightly as she looked at his back.

His ability to infiltrate the castle single-handedly, subdue 10,000 troops without a single casualty, silence the nobles, win the favor of the queen, and imprison a princess.

This was an existence that even the saintess of Carpe could not help but look up to.

That night.

In Kaladi’s tavern, his story was all over the place.

Now it’s not mannani.

as the lord of the north.

as a hero.
