I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 332 Trade City Ramelun (2)

Ramelun Chairman’s Office.

A man in a butler’s uniform with shining sharp eyes bowed his head to Chairman Rodon. This is the secretary who brought tea to Calock and Dapple in the mayor’s office.

“Did you figure it out?”

“yes. “He has different hair color, but he is Dapple, Lord of Linden Castle.”

Siegel, Mayor Caelak’s secretary and Loron’s spy, nodded.

“Deple? Are you sure? “He’s blonde.”

“I’m sure. “The hair looked like it had been dyed.”

“Deply, because Caelak and Sentai Linden Seongju were friends. “It’s worth coming.”

Rodon grinned and tapped his fingers on the desk.

“I caught a big catch on this one?”

Deflinden. He is the young lord of Linden Castle and is the link that brought together the tribes of the Rhine Forest and the Eastern Seiran Alliance.

If he disappeared, there was a possibility that the Seiran alliance and the alliance between these races would fall apart.

“Shall we handle it?”

When Siegel narrowed his eyes, a fishy, murderous sound came out.

“no. wait. Until we reached the imperial army two days later.”

“Imperial army? The clause states that the army cannot enter the city of Ramelun…”

“We will hold a council. “If four-fifths of the lawmakers agree, the provision can be eliminated.”

As of yesterday, 25 out of 30 lawmakers stood behind him. There was really nothing to be afraid of anymore.

“I’m sure we’ll catch him together with the Imperial Knights. Until then, just keep an eye on them so they don’t run away.”

“All right.”

“Oh wait.”

Siegel nodded and was about to leave when Rodon motioned again.

“Is the list complete?”

“Are you talking about a list of opponents of the Empire? Almost finished. “It was convenient because we only had to reduce the number of people visiting the market.”

“Make sure to complete that as well and have it delivered by tomorrow. “It’s annoying, so write down all the people who seem like they might cause even the slightest problem.”

“All right.”

Siegel bowed his head deeply and left the chairman’s office.

“The chairman of this city is not bad, but…”

Rodon turned and looked at Ramelun reflected outside the window.

“I want to play in bigger water.”

If you offer this city and Dapp to the empire, you will be able to rise to the highest rank of nobles in the future.

This huge city was nothing more than a sailboat in front of the empire, so it was right to abandon it now.

“You have to get off the ship that’s going down.”

However, there was something that even Rodon did not know. The shadow swaying under the window was listening to his every word.

**

“…that’s how it happened.”

Mu Young-gaek ate stew hungrily and told Baek Woo-jin about the conversation that took place in the mayor’s office and the chairman’s office.

“But this is incredibly delicious. “It’s almost like soup!”

“It was delicious.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded. The stew here was not only soft, but had a harmonious combination of salty and sweet flavors. There was a reason why Dapple was the pride of Ramelun.

“Oh, I already ate it all. “Are there any more?”

“I’m sure there’s some left over from what I reserved, so go ahead and ask for more.”

“really? Preload!”

Muyounggaek went down to the first floor carrying the bowl he had licked.

-You use Muyounggaek very well.

‘Because hiding is one of that guy’s few strengths.’

Muyounggaek has level 9 hiding ability and extensive knowledge of institutions and barriers.

By using those abilities, information warfare could be conducted to an advantage beyond theft.

-Anyway, Mayor Caelach was a person you could trust, just like Dapple said.

‘okay. The atmosphere is the same as before.’

Mayor Calock, as a man with a stubborn attitude, was alone in resisting the overwhelming injustice unleashed by the Congress and the Empire.

‘It’s just going to be difficult.’

Even though I only heard about him verbally, I could feel what kind of condition he was in. It must be a hopeless situation where you can’t do this or that.

-To be honest, there is no answer. Since 80% of the council has passed, the mayor cannot do anything alone.

He clicked his tongue as if he was disappointed about the darkness.

-Dapple’s identity has also been revealed, so it would be better to give up here and return to Linden Castle to prepare. If you listen to what Chairman Rodon says, it’s as if this place has already been eaten by the empire.

‘Not yet.’

Baek Woo-jin shook his head.

-ok? What did you hear? As long as Congress passes over, the mayor can’t do anything. 4/5 means at least 24 people are on his side.

‘that’s right. ‘No matter how prestigious the mayor is, it will be difficult as long as the council is in power.’

-So, let’s go without wasting time. There’s a lot more to prepare besides this.

‘So what if the parliament collapses?’

-Eh?

‘If Congress is broken, the mayor can do as he pleases until it is restored.’

Baek Woo-jin smiled coolly.

-You can’t believe it….

‘I’m not saying we’re going to massacre without reason. What did Rodon say? The imperial army is coming. In addition, I made a list of people who opposed the empire. What do you think you’ll do with it?

-Are you saying they are committing massacres?

‘It may be a massacre, but they will do something and then hand this city over to the empire.’

It was clear that Rodon was thinking of dedicating the entire city to the Empire after eliminating all those who opposed it.

‘If they do something dirty, we can use it against them and at least get their information. You have to stay here.’

-That’s definitely true.

The darkness nodded its blade. It is not impossible to use the information obtained by the Muyounggaek to destroy their plan.

‘Anyway, this guy’s hair is…’

Of course, I thought it was right to give up and go, but after listening to Baek Woo-jin, it seemed like he was right.

I really couldn’t keep up with my wits.

Ding!

[A new quest has arrived.]

[The tilting of Ramelun.]

The shadow of the Charon Empire is falling over the trading city of Ramelun. Defend Ramelun from the Council and the Empire.

Condition: Stop the Empire’s plans and dissolve the current parliament.

Reward: 6000 point trait.

-Give it to me again and again?

Darkness screamed when he saw the quest.

-Aren’t we overdoing quests too much?

‘What’s with the excessive hair?’

Baek Woo-jin snorted. What kind of abuse is this when it comes to quests that have only been created in a month?

-You can’t look at it objectively because it’s your quest…

Empty!

As Heukam was about to argue, Muyeonggaek took the stew and placed it on the table.

“Have you prepared a lot?”

“You should eat well.”

“Wow, after all, there’s only one prosecutor! thank you for this food!”

Moo Young-gaek groaned as if he had inhaled carbonated beverages, put his head into the bowl of stew, and began to inhale.

“bon appetit.”

Baek Woo-jin looked at the back of Mu Young-gaek’s head and grinned.

‘You have a lot of work to do in the future.’

-no way?

‘I’ll have to feed this and send it back.’

-Scary guy….

**

The next morning, Baek Woo-jin told Moon Joo-young and Deple the story he heard from Mu-yeong-gaek.

“So we’re not moving from here?”

“okay. “We will wait here until the imperial army arrives.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded to Mu Young-gaek’s question.

“You gather information about the Council and the Empire while pretending not to notice that you are being followed. “You can also use the Thieves Guild.”

“It’s not difficult, but shouldn’t we retreat before the imperial army comes?”

Dapple opened his mouth with a dark complexion.

“I’m going to use that.”

“Use it?”

“okay. “The Empire doesn’t just come here to hang out.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled coldly and turned his shoulders.

“First, pressure on Ramelun, second, purge any opponents of the Empire in any way, and lastly, devour this city entirely without opposition.”

Baek Woo-jin spread his three fingers one by one.

“But since we know this information, we can take advantage of them.”

“That gap…”

“I’ll tell you later. “Let’s move for now.”

As Baek Woo-jin applauded, Deple and Moon Joo-young stood up at the same time.

“As soon as you leave the dorm, you will be followed. “Treat me as an escort like you did at Preston Castle.”

“All right.”

“Matriarch. “Where did Mu Young-gaek go?”

Moon Ju-young looked out the window, muttering that he didn’t come into the room yesterday either.

“I am working. long time.”

“Now I see the cost of a meal.”

Moon Joo-young smiled brightly as if he understood what he meant. It’s a face that looks very happy.

-That kind-hearted Moon Joo-young also likes Mu-yeong-gaek when he hears that he is having a hard time.

Darkness giggled as if it was fun.

**

Two days later.

By the time the sun reached the center of the sky, it was busy outside the hotel.

“You’re here.”

Baek Woo-jin looked out the window and clasped his hands behind his back.

The words of the citizens were mixed with the words empire and military preface. Putting it all together, it meant that the imperial army was waiting at the west gate.

“Master Shi.”

“it’s okay.”

Moon Joo-young smiled softly as Deple bit his lip.

“The matriarch’s plan has never been wrong. “We don’t have to worry, we just have to do as the matriarch tells us.”

“I see! “I lacked faith.”

The two people looked at each other, smiled, and put their hands together.

– Oh, that’s creepy!

The darkness that saw that sight trembled with its blade. Moon Joo-young and Dapple’s faith in Baek Woo-jin was now at the level of religion.

There were times when Moon Joo-young alone was annoying, but with Dapple joining, it was now nauseating.

“You guys stay here.”

“yes? “Master…”

“I’ll go to the west gate and come back.”

Baek Woo-jin donned Rapport’s gray cloak, used the stealth attribute Sleep Dragon Spirit, and kicked out the window of the dorm.

I ran across the roof and headed to the western gate.

‘colors!’

-I can definitely feel it. Although the number is small, each one is strong.

As Heukam said, the number itself was not large, but it felt like they had well-trained discipline.

While remaining hidden, he climbed the castle wall and stood next to the garrison commander. Of course, no one recognized him.

“It’s not possible!”

The garrison commander shook his head at the large man standing in front of the castle gate.

The man was over 2 meters tall and was wearing silver armor with a claw pattern on his chest.

Behind them, about 120 knights wearing armor similar to men were displaying tremendous force.

Standing next to the knights were three dark elves and about 300 black demons.

“They say I’m just going to take a day off and pass by. “Do you not trust me?”

“No matter how much you are Aroid, you cannot enter our city with your army.”

‘That guy was an Aroid.’

Baek Woo-jin realized who the large knight was through the guard captain’s words.

-Did you know who that orc guy was?

‘Dapple said it. ‘He’s the leader of the Gargoyle Knights.’

Dapple said that Aloid was the leader of the Gargoyle Knights of the Imperial West Tower. It is said that, contrary to appearance, he uses a sword technique that combines strength and softness.

However, contrary to Dapple’s words, his strength was at level 9, while 10 of the knights behind him were level 7 and the rest were level 5 to 6.

“We are not here to fight Ramelun, but we are on our way to Linden Castle. “I just need a place to rest.”

“Linden Castle is above us. Rather, it would be the way back.”

“I told you. “I came to rest.”

“Haa…”

The guard captain sighed. Linden Castle is located in the center of the continent to the east and Ramelun to the south.

If you stop by Ramelun on the way to Linden Castle, it’s a long way back. It was absolutely nonsense.

“Let me say it again. The military is not allowed in our city. “If you approach us any further than this, we cannot tolerate it, no matter how imperial the army is.”

“I understand. “Go away for now.”

Aloid stepped back with both hands raised.

“Instead, please convey my words to the mayor and council members.”

“I already went to tell you.”

The guard captain nodded without clearing his doubts.

“That’s it then.”

Aroid laughed and sat down on the spot. The Gargoyle Knights and the Dark Elves were still in their same state.

‘You know how things will go.’

Baek Woo-jin chuckled as he looked at Aloyd’s expression.

-okay. Looking at his face, he seems to know what will happen next.

‘The door will open soon.’

Less than an hour after the confrontation between Ramelun’s guards and the imperial army, twenty soldiers and Chairman Rodon approached from the council.

“Open the door.”

“yes? What do you mean! “The army of another country is in our city…”

“The council has decided to accept the army of the empire. “Open it quickly.”

“Such nonsense…”

The guard captain gritted his teeth and shook his fist. I felt like I finally figured out the whole situation.

“Great Captain.”

“It is an order from Congress. “Open the door.”

“Ah…”

At Chairman Rodon’s instructions, the tightly closed door was opened. Aroid and the dark elves of the Gargoyle Knights crossed through the door without hesitation.

“Ugh….”

“You’re crazy!”

“Why are you bringing troops into the city?”

“Is it okay?”

The people of the city looked at the army entering Ramelun with faces full of fear, confusion, and doubt.

“Chairman Rawdon!”

Aloyd approached Chairman Rodon and bowed his head with a powerful gesture.

“Thank you for your consideration!”

“ha ha ha! It’s natural since we’re not strangers. Come on. “Today, let’s drink until our noses are crooked at my house.”

The two went up the main street muttering jokes, and the Gargoyle Knights and Dark Elves followed behind them.

“Hmm…”

Baek Woo-jin grinned as he looked at Rodon’s back and the guard captain’s despairing face.

‘The whole city hasn’t been eaten yet.’

**

Chairman Rodon was having a drink with Aloyd in the sitting room of the council.

“Have you made up your mind?”

“Of course. “I and the 26 members of Ramelun support the empire.”

“That’s a great choice. Director Shin will also give great blessings to the Chairman.”

“These are people who oppose the empire. “If only these people are dealt with, it will be no different from the entire Ramelun following the empire.”

At Aloyd’s answer, Rodon smiled in satisfaction and held out a bundle of documents from under the table.

“As expected, you are sure.”

“The guard captain who stopped you earlier is also listed there.”

“I didn’t like it, but it turned out great.”

After discovering the name of Guard Captain Jacques in the documents, Aloid let out a faint look of murder.

“So what are you going to do with them? Are you going to kill me?”

“no. I plan to turn it into a dark ghost so that no evidence comes out. “It’s definitely more than a disappearance.”

“Dark ghost?”

“yes.”

Aloid took out a glass bottle containing white liquid from his pocket.

“It’s something called Tears of God. “If you feed it this, it can turn humans into black demons.”

“Can we use one more person?”

“of course.”

“Mayor Calac. “Turn him into a dark demon.”

Chairman Rodon smiled coolly.

“Wasn’t he supposed to be a scarecrow?”

“Today, the National Assembly opposed it again. “It’s not worth keeping alive because it refuses even if you give it a chance.”

The Empire’s army had come in and would purge all opponents of the Empire, so there was no need for puppets anymore.

“Give me the Kaelak that has become a dark demon. “I’ll have to do as I please with that stubborn human being.”

“That sounds fun. All right. “I’ll make sure to take care of it.”

Aloid laughed and poured some alcohol into his mouth.

“And there’s one more thing. “You know the lord of Linden Castle, right?”

“Why did that rat suddenly…”

“He’s here now.”

“Are you sure?”

“okay. “Now that they have seen you come, they are preparing to leave the city.”

Rodon told Aroid all about Dapple’s location and current situation.

“It’s really good you didn’t make a hasty move! “We will make sure we catch him.”

Aloyd put down his drink and stood up.

“There shouldn’t be any noticeable trouble inside the city.”

“of course. “I will watch and take advantage of the moment he runs away.”

With those words, Aloid went out.

“If I offer up the Dapple Castle to Ramelun, standing at the center of the empire won’t be a problem.”

Rodon threw the remaining alcohol in his glass on the floor and grinned.

**

Caelach was pouring drinks alone in the mayor’s office.

“Damn it…”

Maybe it was because my stomach was upset, but I didn’t get drunk even after drinking.

“Damn you guys!”

Caelach slammed the table.

‘You’re abandoning the foundation of the city!’

There were curses directed at Rodon and the lawmakers who broke Ramelun’s neutrality that had existed for hundreds of years in an instant.

Today, although he and 4 other members of the National Assembly were decisively opposed, the remaining 26 members voted in favor, eliminating the city’s clause prohibiting troops from other countries from entering the city.

It is truly absurd that the city’s neutrality was broken overnight.

“This city is ruined.”

As I told Dapple, there was really no hope now. But I can’t leave either. I had so much affection for this place and so many things were tied to it.

“Whoa!”

As Caelach was pouring another drink into his glass, there was a knock at the door.

Squeak.

A moment later the door opened and Siegel came in.

“Why are you…”

“There is a customer visiting the mayor.”

“what?”

Caelak narrowed his eyes.

‘Could it be Dapple?’

I knew he hadn’t left the city yet, but I didn’t meet him for fear of being noticed.

It seemed like the Empire’s military was trying to ask for his help.

‘I can’t help it.’

I felt so guilty about my friend that I had to send him back somehow.

“Come in… huh?”

Caelak’s eyes widened. The person who appeared next to Siegel was a dark elf with shiny black skin.

“All dark elves?”

It was not a black ghost, but a real dark elf.

“Why are you here….”

“Mayor of Calock.”

The dark elf approached Kaylac with cool steps.

“I will give you the honor of following God.”

A strange white liquid flickered from his hand.

“How dare you tell me where this is! “Ugh!”

Caelach tried to stand up but fell backwards holding his head.

“This…”

“That drink is a bit old.”

Siegel curled the corners of his mouth as he looked at the fallen Caelac.

“Siegel, what did you do to the surgery…”

“Then why did you miss the last opportunity? “You should have thought not only of yourself but also of your family.”

“Siegel!”

“Please blame the Chairman, not me.”

Siegel stepped back and the dark elf came forward.

“Ugh!”

This was when the dark elf tried to force open Caelak’s jaw and drop the tears of god on it.

Sigh!

With a sound that split the space, the left arm of the dark elf holding the tear of God fell to the ground.

“Ugh!”

“Huh!”

The dark elf was scared and stepped back, and Siegel screamed.

“What are you!”

Although he didn’t feel it, there was a tall black-haired man standing behind Caelach.

The dark clouds in the night sky disappeared and round moonlight fell, illuminating the man’s face.

“You you! “Dapple’s…”

Siegel’s eyes widened. The man was the escort who had come with Dapple.

“Is this the stuff that creates dark spirits?”

Baek Woo-jin grinned as he collected the divine tears dropped by the dark elf.

“It’s going to be quite a long night.”
