Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 1196. I’ll do what my heart tells me

, Fiesta.

Hades port.

The horsepower sailboat slowly approached the mooring.

Fabian’s eyes widened as he watched the harbor from the bow.

“A high-ranking person must have been to the port? Isn’t that the flag of the Imperial Knights?”

Elio, darkened by the pattern of the knights, shrugged and replied.

“I don’t know.”

Then Count Larva Omar interjected in a gentle voice.

“The flag of the Imperial Knights of the Imperial Family. I hope it comes with good things.”

Elio, darkened by the circumstances of the empire, tilted his head.

“Is anything bad happening?”

“The commander of the Imperial Knights for life is Archduke Kaiser Knauf.”

“A knight commander for life?”

“Archduke Kaiser Knauf was appointed when he was a count…. He said that the emperor asked him to be the leader of the Imperial Knights for the rest of his life. Since then, the Imperial Knights have been under the command of Archduke Kaiser Knauf.”

“Even after becoming a grand duke?”

“Actually, it is run by the vice-captain, Marquis Reid Belatz, but it must be considered that it is under the influence of Archduke Kaiser Knauf.”

“You mean you don’t know if you came because of your title or because of the Marquis of Knauf?”

“That’s right.”

Fabian muttered as he inspected the mooring with slightly tense eyes.

“I wish I had come to give you a title. I have to get a manor in the east…”

In the meantime, the sailors firmly fixed the sailboat to the mooring with a rope.

Eventually, a plank was placed between the mooring and the sailboat.

The sailors didn’t get off the ship willingly, probably because they were afraid of the knights camped at the mooring.

In the end, Elio and his party took the lead this time.

As the northern nobles got off the sailboat, a middle-aged knight stepped forward.

“Excuse me, but are you nobles from the north?”

In response to the knight’s polite question, Fabian introduced the party first.

“That’s right. The one on my left is Count Omar of Larva and the one on my right is Viscount Elio Lagoa. And I am Baron Fabian Cloud, Viscount Lagoa’s attendant.”

As soon as Fabian finished his introduction, the middle-aged knight smiled and revealed his identity.

“I am the Marquis of Reid Belatz, vice-captain of the Imperial Knights. Count Cardinal Paganus of the Principality of Aragon has presented to His Majesty the Emperor about the title of Viscount Lagoa. In response, His Majesty the Emperor decided to bestow the title and fiefdom of an imperial count in recognition of Viscount Lagoa’s achievements in Hirhera.”

At his words, the sailors who were watching from behind the northern nobles all cheered and clapped.

When the commotion subsided, Marquis Reid Bellacz stared at Viscount Helio Lagoa.

“On behalf of His Majesty, I ask Viscount Elio Lagoa. Do you swear to become a loyal servant of His Majesty, to protect the empire, and to govern the fiefs given to you well?”

“I swear.”

Elio answered without hesitation.

If it’s not aggression, it’s because it’s a welcome person.

Marquis Reid Belatz waved his hand behind him, and one of the knights handed the scroll to the vice-captain.

Marquis Reid Belacz, who opened the scroll, calmly took his luck.

“I will read it on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor. ‘I, the emperor of the Londinium Empire, Dexter Fraser II, bestows the title of count of the Londinium Empire and Latinus of the Duchy of Lorraine as a fief to Helio Lagoa from Alba Nubes in the Kingdom of Escatos.’ Congratulations, Count Elio Lagoa. Originally, the ceremony should have been called to the imperial palace, but it was said that he was carrying out a more serious mission, so it was conducted in an informal way. By the way, titles are hereditary, so you can think of them as belonging to the Lagoa family.”

“thank you.”

Elio couldn’t hide his smile.

It doesn’t matter if it’s a title, but it was so nice to have a fief in the empire.

At that time, Fabian cautiously took his luck.

“Hey, Marquis Belats. May I ask you a question on behalf of our Countess of Lagoa?”

“Something?”

“The Latinus horse I received as a fief. I’ve heard that it’s the Duchy of Lorraine. Is it close to here?”

“Definitely close. A day’s ride north of Fiesta will bring you to Latinus. It was originally the estate of Count Faber, but after he died without leaving any descendants, it belonged to Prince Wulfs. There were many great nobles who were aiming for the good water and fertile land, but since it has been occupied by the Count of Lagoa, many people must be hungry.”

“It’s the domain of Prince Wulfps, but can His Majesty decide as he pleases?”

“ha ha ha! No way. His Highness, Prince Wulfs, knew it first and proposed it to His Majesty the Emperor. A great nobleman like the Count of Lagoa would want to take anyone. It happened to be a territory close to Fiesta, so His Majesty the Emperor readily agreed.”

“aha!”

Fabian seemed to have a rough idea of what was going on.

“That’s right. The one on my left is Count Omar of Larva and the one on my right is Viscount Elio Lagoa. And I am Baron Fabian Cloud, Viscount Lagoa’s attendant.”

As soon as Fabian finished his introduction, the middle-aged knight smiled and revealed his identity.

“I am the Marquis of Reid Belatz, vice-captain of the Imperial Knights.

“aha!”

Fabian seemed to have a rough idea of what was going on.

The emperor may have leaked information about the fiefdom and fiefdom in the process of asking Prince Wulfps about the current status of Count Lagoa.

Eventually, Marquis Reid Bellacz moved to the Sea Breeze Tavern with Elio and the others.

The sea breeze tavern, which should have been crowded with guests, was quiet, probably because the Imperial Knights had worked on it.

When Marquis Reid Bellatz ordered beer and snacks, the owner, the cook, and even Sally were sent out.

Still not feeling relieved, he went all the way to the kitchen and looked around before returning to Elio and his party.

“Sorry to have kept you waiting. It is a very sensitive subject.”

Count Larva Omar said with a smile.

“Shouldn’t Baron Fabian and I have to avoid our seats too?”

“That’s not it. It’s because the great nobles of the empire are too interested in it.”

Before long, Marquis Reid Bellacz turned to Count Helio Lagoa.

“I didn’t come just to confer titles. Count Lagoa, do you know that the leader of the knights is His Highness Kaiser Knauf?”

“I heard it a little while ago.”

“There are too many eyes watching over the Grand Duchess of Knauf, so I came instead of the leader. The captain said that the unfortunate incident in the duel was not intended by Marquis Gosling Knauf.”

“You mean someone else’s order?”

“exactly. The task force, Countess Kaysa Coldwall, did this unilaterally.”

“Do you have any proof?”

“Unfortunately, there is no evidence. It is true that the Knauf Grand Duchess’s power is strong, but the Inspection Department to which the Special Task Force belongs is an organization created to keep the great nobles in check… It will be difficult for the Knauf Grand Duchess to get a confession.”

“Aha so? Let’s do something that didn’t happen?”

“As a result, yes.”

Marquis Reid Bellacz did not make any excuses.

Because excuses belong to the weak.

“I see.”

Elio did not object.

It was because it was tiring to build an angle with the Grand Duke of Knauf.

After the duel with Marquis Gosling, just looking at the knights made me nervous.

It’s not because I’m afraid of fighting, it’s because there are too many things to consider. I wanted to escape from such useless emotional labor.

“Thank you. By the way, this or that may come out later, but please know that it has nothing to do with the Knauf Grand Duchess.”

“Are there people to talk about with the Grand Duchess of Knauf?”

“Yes. Even very many.”

“Someone? people like that.”

“With the descendants of the family that was defeated by Grand Duke Hannes Knauf, who was called the god of war in the past…” When

Marquis Reid Belatz blurted out his words, Elio sighed.

“And what?”

“ha! That’s how Her Highness’s aides are.”

“yes? Why is the crown prince like that? Do you have feelings for the Grand Duke of Knauf?”

“His Highness, the Crown Prince, looks exactly like His Majesty the Emperor. The one who caused the Imperial War in the past is Your Majesty the Emperor. Of course, you’ve become gentler since you’ve grown older. His Highness the Crown Prince is the head of the hardliners.”

“yes?”

Unable to understand Marquis Reid Bellacz’s words, Elio tilted his head.

What does being a hardliner have to do with provoking the Knauf family?

“His Highness the Crown Prince stimulates the Archduke Knauf family because he wants Archduke Kaiser Knauf to jump into the front line. Sooner or later, someone from the prince’s side may come to Count Lagoa as well.”

“I was given a title by the Empire to prevent escalation?”

“You may ask Count Lagoa to go to the southern front under the oath of defending the empire.”

“are you okay. To protect the empire, I had to find the Celestial Star. Compared to the perils of perforation, the war with the southern kingdom is new blood.”

“Is that true?”

“So, I ran from Hirhera to Fiestra. It’s said that the one behind the orders to destroy the Hirhera Ice Wall to the black magicians is the Celestial Castle. His level of magic is magnum opps. What do you think the Empire will be like if he decides to come out?”

“The Magnum Ops will perish.”

“Exactly. A war with the southern kingdom is nothing.”

“Okay. As soon as I return, I will once again warn the Knight Commander and His Majesty the Emperor about the Magnum Ops.”

“Tell His Majesty the Emperor to calm down the Crown Prince. I don’t know what I’ll do if I hang onto the ankles of busy people.”

“haha. Even if it’s frustrating, please be patient. His Highness the Crown Prince is also a wise person, so if you learn about the Magnum Ops, you’ll take it upon yourself.”

“The Northern Kingdom must have informed them of the existence of the Magnum Ops, right?”

“The information from the north is handled as top secret even by the imperial family… so it’s hard to say how much you know.”

“There was a saying that it was hidden in case there was a war with the Southern Kingdom, is that true?”

“It’s not just because of that. If it is known that there is a crack in the scutum (ice wall), only the world will be confused. Knowing certain things can actually make you sick.”

Elio didn’t object.

Hagiya, it was a rift that even Duke Magus Killian Hale, the magician of the imperial palace, gave up on, so it might be better for ordinary people not to know.

Having finished talking, Marquis Reid Bellacz said goodbye and left.

And moments later, the owner and cook Sally returned to the Seabreeze Tavern.

“And what?”

“ha! That’s how Her Highness’s aides are.”

“yes? Why is the crown prince like that? Do you have feelings for the Grand Duke of Knauf?”

“His Highness, the Crown Prince, looks exactly like His Majesty the Emperor. The one who caused the Imperial War in the past is Your Majesty the Emperor. Of course, you’ve become gentler since you’ve grown older. His Highness the Crown Prince is the head of the hardliners.”

Having finished talking, Marquis Reid Bellacz said goodbye and left.

And moments later, the owner and cook Sally returned to the Seabreeze Tavern.

As the Imperial Knights disappeared, regular customers also found the tavern one by one.

Fabian chewed on the dried squid and said.

“Viscount, no Count. Even if the crown prince refuses, what will you do if it keeps getting entangled like a leech?”

“What do you do? You do what you do.”

“Are you going to lose?”

“What are you talking about? I am not such a thoughtless person. How do you beat the crown prince?”

“Didn’t you use your hands without hesitation against the Marquis Duke?”

“The prince is different. The person who will become the emperor, can I do the same?”

“What else can I not do? Isn’t the crown prince a person?”

Elio jumped up at Fabian’s radical statement.

“hey! what did you eat wrong? Even if I said yes, why would someone who should be stopped?”

“Are you drying? Are you the one who will listen to the Count? Count Omar, please say something. Is Count Lagoa the one who will listen to someone?”

Count Omar of Larva agreed with Fabian on that point.

“It is true that Lord Lagoa does not listen to others.”

“Still, it’s not about beating the crown prince. I’m not that kind of common sense, am I?”

Elio looked at Count Larva Omar with pleading eyes.

However, Count Omar of Larva did not grant his wish.

“sorry. I must have the conscience of a knight.”

“I have nothing to say that Count Omar looked like that.”

Elio muttered with a bitter face and drank the half-left beer at once.

Then Fabian asked as if to confirm.

“You haven’t answered yet. What are you doing?”

“I don’t know, man. I will do as my heart tells me.”
