Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 1339. I’m the ‘vanguard of chaos’?

“ha! Somehow, it seems I got hit by Count Bamut’s pun. Count Lagoa I’m sorry. I have tied my hands and feet myself in a situation where I need help…”

As Duke Cillian Hale sighed, Elio said calmly.

“It wasn’t that driven.”

“Even though Count Lagoa is the Grand Master, don’t let your guard down. The Iron Legion is the strongest unit of the Imperial Army. The Excitium of the Battalion unit… is the ultimate weapon that any being with a physical body should be afraid of.”

“I know.”

“The Count is a magician, so he will do his best, but… the Batalion unit also has a lot of experience in fighting against sword masters and high-ranking wizards. Especially recently, they even recruited a large number of musketeers. A combination of Excitium and Musketeer should be able to kill even a god incarnate.”

“….”

“That’s why the Imperial Army intelligence department is taking a hard line. There is a Battalion unit in the Steel Legion that can move immediately.”

“What about Feromuros?”

“It depends on the will of the Crown Prince, the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force. He will be thinking about whether the capture of Peromuros comes first or the arrest of the Count.”

“What decision do you think the prince will make?”

“I don’t know. Since he’s the commander-in-chief, of course I think he’ll take over from Feromuros… but seeing as he sent the Imperial Army Intelligence to provoke the count, it doesn’t seem like it.”

“I was quietly trying to find the ‘vanguard of chaos’… but things suddenly got entangled.”

“Go somewhere else and don’t talk about the ‘Sanctuary of Confusion.’”

“Why?”

“It’s because I think there will be people who call the count ‘the vanguard of chaos’.”

At the unexpected words, Elio asked back with an absurd face.

“Am I the ‘vanguard of chaos’?”

“Wouldn’t it seem that way to the Count’s enemies? If the commander-in-chief, the prince, and the Marquis Stauran, the commander of the steel corps, collide with the count right away, the war situation will be so twisted that it is difficult to do anything about it. People who like to hang around by the tail may point to the Count as the cause of the mayhem.”

Come to think of it, it made sense, so Elio nodded his head kindly.

“All right.”

It seemed to me that it was better to follow the duke’s words, as I didn’t want to mess with finding the ‘vanguard of chaos’ because of myself.

With nothing more to say, Elio stood up.

Duke Cillian Hale also looked at him with a confused face, but did not catch him.

“Then I will go. If you see any strange signs within the Imperial Army… please let me know. I will be staying in Minos for the time being.”

Minos is a town close to the town of Ramsey.

Elio intended to wait there for Count Omar and the like of Larva to return.

“Okay. And… try not to collide with the crown prince as much as possible. If you touch him with a fleeting feeling, you could easily become an enemy of the empire.”

After the empire decided, Count Elio Lagoa would not be able to live a single day comfortably.

Perhaps, Excitium, which was only given to the batalion units, could be sprinkled on the musketeers of the imperial army.

If that happens, the world dominated by knights and wizards will also come to an end.

If the batalion unit is a small hole in a solid embankment, the excitium given to the musketeers… will have the same effect as bursting the embankment.

If excitium is supplied to the musketeers, even if they become lords, they do not have to pay attention to others.

No, rather, from then on, all knights and wizards had to live with the attention of the lord – who held the axitium.

Thinking that far, Duke Cillian Hale let out a long sigh.

Elio left quietly as Duke Cillian Hale’s expression darkened.

When I went outside, I felt a little helpless.

He is also busy looking for Ushas Undra, but he is about to get caught by the Crown Prince and the Marquis of Staurun.

If it was like the past, I wouldn’t have cared as much as the hair, but the batalion unit is a problem.

The Batalion unit armed with Excitium was a great danger to himself as well.

‘ha! Because nothing is easy.’

Even when he killed the Cheonjama (Kama Devias), it seemed that he would soon be able to return to his family.

Finding the Golden Thread (Ushas Undra) was not as difficult as expected.

Things that were going smoothly turned into turbulence from the abyss.

Unwillingly, he learned the secret of the gods and is on the verge of being caught up in a war.

That doesn’t mean he’s afraid of the Batalion troops.

There was no way the Nine Heaven Sword Spirits dwelling inside his body could stand by and watch his death.

He believed that the Nine Heaven Sword Spirits would do anything at the moment of despair, whether it was for treatment or self-defense.

That’s why Fabian said it was a misunderstanding a while ago when he said that Luna Mylus would have died if she hadn’t devotedly treated her.

Neither she nor Luna Mylus knew much about the Nine Heaven Sword Spirit.

Although the Gucheon Sword Spirit is destructive to others, it serves as a kind of zenith to oneself.

To himself, the Gucheon Sword Spirit is the sword that saves life.

It expels morale, pierces clogged acupuncture points, and invigorates.

I’ve been burned a few times by excitium, but I’m not afraid.

For some reason, it’s a feeling that doesn’t seem like you’re going to die in excitium.

Elio, trudging along, was called from behind.

“Count Elio!”

I turned to the familiar voice and it was Baron Ashley Nelson.

A blush appeared on Elio’s hardened face.

“Sir Ashley.”

Baron Ashley Nelson took a moment to catch her breath, perhaps struggling from the rush.

When her breathing finally stabilized, she opened her mouth.

“I heard that you were coming and ran. How have you been?”

“yes. How about Sir Ashley? I heard that the Corvo Magic Corps was also damaged by the steel golem. are you okay?”

“There were a few casualties among the knights, but the captain made a brave decision and got out without further damage.”

“Duke Cillian Hale made a decision?”

“If you were like the other wizards, you would have held out until all the knights were dead because of their face. Thanks to that, everyone was safe except for the knights on the front line.”

“Did the frontline knights get hit by the iron golem?”

“At your ‘light of death’…”

“Is the red light coming from the steel golem’s eyes that scary?”

“Cut off your steel shield as well as your heavy armor like tofu. should it be melted? Anyway, the light of death cuts everything. So even the Count, if you see the iron golem’s red light later on, avoid it unconditionally. Don’t try to block it with a shield or sword.”

“I didn’t know it was to that extent. I will keep that in mind.”

Elio repeated to himself, ‘I’ll have to be careful of the iron golem’s red light’.

Since the iron golem was a relic of the titans, the destructive power of the red light was beyond imagination.

“I heard rumors that you went to Abyss. How about Abyss?”

Then Elio asked.

“I heard that the Academy teaches about the Abyss, is that true?”

“yes. Professors who studied the Abyss teach knights and wizards basic things. Things like geographic characteristics, ecological monsters, types of monsters, and how to deal with them.”

“Then you know you have to go out once a month, right?”

“yes. They say people get a little violent if you stay in the Abyss for a long time. Really?”

The eyes of Baron Ashley Nelson, who had never been to the Abyss before, twinkled.

Perforation and the Abyss are called the two mysteries of the world, so it’s only natural.

“The atmosphere of the Abyss is different from that of land. You know that the Abyss is under the ground, right?”

“I know the entrance to the Abyss is under an open pit mine. By the way, was the Abyss also underground?”

“…”

At that moment, Elio felt as if he had been hit in the back of the head with a hammer.

The entrance to the Abyss was underground, so I thought the Abyss was also underground.

But is the Abyss underground?

If you think of the night and day of the Abyss, you will know how strange that sounds.

“Ah, I was mistaken. I thought it would be underground, but maybe not.”

“Yes, even the professors say that the more they know about the Abyss, the more they don’t know.”

“Anyway, the air in the Abyss is different from above ground. There is a dark ether melted there… It’s the exact opposite of the mana-filled world above.”

“Dark ether dissolved in the air of the Abyss? wow! It’s the first time I’ve heard anything like that. They didn’t teach that at the academy.”

At her words, Elio ‘Oops!’ did.

If you say that the Abyss was created because it was the evil god Shaitin, you have to make a heretical statement.

Unaware of his speed, Baron Ashley Nelson did not take his eyes off Count Elio Lagoa.

Elio decided to finish the story roughly.

“Anyway, they say people get a little weird if they stay in the Abyss for a long time for that reason.”

“Why is there a dark ether in the Abyss? Was that why you thought it was underground?”

At her words, Elio nodded vigorously.

“that’s right. Because the dark and shady energy subsides. I thought it was underground.”

“You seem to be sensitive to energy because you practiced spiritual energy. I’m a bit insensitive to that because I received the ‘Blessing of Mana’. Have you ever toured the mines of Mount Petra?”

“Of course I have been.”

“oh! is it so? If so, have you been to the mines where iron golems are excavated? They won’t let you enter that far from the southern kingdom, right?”

Then Elio raised his chin and spoke in a calm tone.

“I entered the Ferdom Mine, which was owned by the Shade Kingdom. Of course, before the fall of the Shade Kingdom.”

“Then, have you seen steel golems being excavated?”

Baron Ashley Nelson held his breath and waited for Count Helio Lagoa’s answer.

Seeing her like that, Elio suddenly thought of Luna Mylus and laughed.

“Why why? Was my question a bit odd?”

“no. It reminds me of someone who can’t stand being curious. The steel golem was not found as a complete body. Pieces called ‘steel parts’…”

Elio told what he had witnessed in the storage of the Ferdom mine.

***

After leaving the Corvo Magic Corps, the staff of the Imperial Army Intelligence Division immediately returned to the Steel Corps stationed in northern Feromuros.

It was partly because the intelligence department’s special investigation headquarters was set up there, but more than that, it was to meet Marquis Theo Stauran, the commander of the Steel Corps.

Iron Legion command center.

Count Karl Bamut told Marquis Theo Stauran, commander of the Iron Corps, the progress of the past – in detail, referring to documents as if reporting.

“…The Count of Lagoa admitted to all charges, but said he refused to be transported. In addition, he showed disrespectful words and actions towards His Excellency the Marquis and the Crown Prince.”

Count Carl Bamut, like a seasoned great nobleman, did not convey the words of Count Elio Lagoa as they were.

It’s because saying such things in front of the person concerned only hurts their feelings.

“What did he say?”

At the Marquis’ question, Count Carl Bamut had no choice but to open his mouth.

“I said things I couldn’t bear to say, such as ‘Don’t talk bullshit, if you touch me, I’ll make sure you pay for it.’”

Surprisingly, however, Marquis Theo Stauran did not show much anger.

“Compared to what he said and did in the north, the level is weak. After all, the Northern Kingdom and the Empire are different. It looks like you’ve decided to save yourself a little bit, right?”

Count Carl Bamut muttered inwardly, ‘It can’t be so,’ and added a decisive word.

“I didn’t want to mention this because it was such a shocking statement… but he said he would kill not only the Batalion troops, but also the Marquis Staurun and His Highness the Crown Prince if he were to touch him.”
