Sword Pilgrim-Chapter 203

Episode 203

Three days after the catacombs collapsed.

Three days have passed.

It was about the time that Emily, who headed north, returned with [Moss to the Castle] for her father.

But even after that time passed, I couldn’t see Colius anywhere.

Although most of the soldiers volunteered to restore the catacombs, the limits were clear, and their hopes faded like a lamp in the wind as time went on.

“Emily… how? The Count… the Black Count…!”

Flora cried and was hugged by Emily, and the knights of the North and his companions.

Everyone who had a relationship with him came to Kaladi’s villa once in a while and worried about Emily and went back.

All of them were reactions to the thought that he was dead.

“Your father was a great man. You were never foolish!”

“If he had been alive… I wouldn’t have been afraid of this war either.”

Emily silently watched as each of them said a word and then left.

There are people who really care and there are people who don’t.

“Still, it’s really fortunate that he met his end as a hero. Didn’t he escape the disgrace of the nation because he didn’t die of stupidity?”

“A hero deserves to be called a hero because he died after cleaning up his own poop.”

Emily wrote down each of their names in her notebook.

the names of the mourners.

I wrote down all the names and words of the exhilarating guys one by one.

This has happened before.

sinking forest.

There, too, Colius went missing and eventually led the war to victory.

Emily had no doubts.

father must.

that it will show up when you need it.

“I guess you don’t believe me.”

It was then.

As she calmed down, a familiar voice pierced her ears.

A woman with sad eyes.

It was Ailee.

“huh. My father couldn’t have died.”

“…May I hear what the reason is.”

A generous tone, as if trying to comfort a child’s infidelity. Her tone was different from usual, as if she was trying to fulfill her duties as a saintess.

The voice that had only been heard in a kind way hurt Emily’s mood today.

“Holy Lady.”

So, Emily was also called a saint.

like others

“Yes Emily.”

“If you met me on the battlefield, what would you do then?”

Is it because I don’t like that attitude?

Maybe because I was angry with my young heart?

Emily quoted what her father had said at first glance.

“…I will fulfill my duties as a saintess. Because I am a saint of the empire.”

fall.

It feels like something is falling.

I feel like my whole body is falling into hell.

but don’t complain

Because he is Zervan.

She is the daughter of the North and the hero’s daughter.

Because Emily holds so many things that she swallows back the tears that fill up. There was no need for a mother who suddenly appeared.

“As a saint, I will not betray my courtesy toward the enemy.”

“You mean to take me prisoner.”

At Emily’s cold voice, she grabbed the hem of her skirt and tried to speak.

“Because that’s the best I can do.”

best.

He met his daughter on the battlefield and said that the best thing he could do was to capture her as a prisoner.

Emily suddenly became angry.

But even so, I understood.

The difference in position is something I have been keenly aware of since I was a child.

When he was the son of Mannani.

When you couldn’t do anything properly because of the clogged blood even though you received God’s grace.

Because I’ve felt it a lot.

Know.

But that made me angry.

“Then I can’t tell you.”

“…okay. But Emily. Just know this.”

Ailee grabbed Emily’s hand tightly.

“I will protect you. Up to Colliers.”

“…Father is not dead!!”

rattle!

thud.

Falling chair.

The gaze of the daughter who jumped up and looked at her with resentful eyes.

Receive it calmly and say it.

“I still don’t remember. But that doesn’t mean there’s no attraction between us, and the strings of fate are clearly connected. Because when I see you, who resembles him, my heart feels like this.”

“But they are enemies.”

“yes. But no matter what anyone says, I’m your mother. Even if I don’t remember.”

because i made it that way

“Soon the envoy of the Empire will come to pick me up. When that time comes, I will leave Carpe. Emily. Do you want to go with me and mom?”

Surprised eyes widen.

Tears welled up in my big eyes.

“Then what about your father?”

“…Because I don’t have a father. I think I should be responsible for you. Even now.”

“I am Zervan. I cannot go to the Empire.”

“I am not asking you to naturalize. I’m just trying to get you to see more for a little while. In order to deal with the empire, shouldn’t you know the empire more deeply?”

Emily bit her lip hard and kicked the seat.

“Emily…”

Emily stopped walking and gave advice to Ailee who stood up.

“Father is alive.”

“But…”

Three days passed. If he was alive, he would have made known his survival through anything.

But no.

I don’t feel anything.

Even after extensive detection techniques, there is not a single ant cub in the basement.

It was also a provisional announcement that he had died.

“no! Alive!”

The reason why the Schniff he rode on didn’t disappear is the proof. Another is.

“I met a goblin not too long ago.”

bang!

Ailee chewed on her daughter’s words as she watched Emily close the door and leave.

“Goblin….”

Materigan’s bridge.

“Haa…”

In the room left alone, a breath of relief could be heard for a long time.

Meanwhile.

the western tip of the continent.

A mountainous terrain that is relatively safe from the beasts of the empire, and the terrain itself is like a fortress.

country built there.

Lumpard is a country that serves the God of Armor and at the same time is the main axis of the National League against the Empire.

The quiet country of Lumpad has become noisy.

“Evil! A demon has appeared!!”

It was because the color demon that suddenly appeared in Queen Lumpad’s bath was cutting down all the soldiers and fleeing.

“Find it! He must be a wicked person who uses the devil’s spell!”

“We must find the one who insulted the queen and wash away this disgrace!!”

“He must be a demon of lust! Be sure to catch it and do it!”

All the nobles wearing armor frantically searched for him, looking at the soldiers rushing by and helping out word by word.

and Lumpard Prison.

Among the inmates all wearing huge armor.

A man with a sword was walking across the bars.

Black hair that seemed to absorb light.

Calm gray eyes that seem to have developed resistance to any kind of humiliation and disgrace.

However, that face is a man of perfect beauty, as if it were created by God.

It was Callius.

[Knock-knock! Because you see this? Even if it’s not me, you’re a body that has no choice but to live like this. iced coffee! If being handsome is a sin, the punishment you will receive will be the death penalty!]

“Shut up. bitch like a bug.”

Callius dismissed the annoying voice echoing from the necklace and remembered the past.

He fought madly in the Catacombs and won.

But it was not a complete victory.

Perhaps because Rebecca filled the vacancy of immortal corruption, she did not die well.

Its unique ability is also quite bizarre, so even if its soul is fragmented and its strength taken away, it survives tenaciously like a leech.

I thought it might be related to gisaeng, but there was no way to know exactly.

If it dragged on as it was, it would surely be a defeat for Colius.

He was confident that he wouldn’t die because he had Materigan’s legs, but if he couldn’t kill Rebecca, he would have to sacrifice a lot to lose himself.

But in the end, I couldn’t get out of the delayed time, and I had no choice but to break the leg of the meterigan I received from the goblin.

In an instant, time and space were twisted and his body was transferred to a random place.

Of course, I didn’t just stand still.

The necklace given by the queen is an artifact that has the ability to seal.

Since it was the treasure of the royal family, Callius went to the end and sealed the exhausted Rebecca in a necklace.

“Even if you throw it into lava, you’ll have no choice but to die.”

[Do you think you’ll be caught and killed by the Lumpards first? A demon of lust who raped the queen… How could he be framed only for that?]

“Shut up.”

Callies was embarrassed.

The place where it was transferred was, of course, the bathtub where the queen was bathing.

The queen was startled and screamed, and Colius had to run away, not knowing where this place was or where it was.

[But why did you run underground? It’s commendable for tricking their eyes, but if you get caught here, it’s over.]

“There’s no reason to answer all these things.”

He never had any intention of escaping here.

However, as I ran away, I noticed that the soldiers’ armor was unusual, and I knew it right away by looking at their accent and patterns.

Lumpad, the country of armor.

A country that turns people into armor.

The center of the Federation of Small Countries.

After realizing it was Lumpad.

[Urgent Quest!]

– Rescue Carpe’s hostage from Lumpad.

-It was because the reward [?]

quest came to mind.

It was surprising that the people of Carpe were being held hostage in Lumpad, and I came to prison because I could turn a blind eye to them.

“I don’t know who is who.”

But Lumpard’s prison was quite a novelty.

There were no prisoners with their hands and feet tied behind bars.

Rather, there were those armed with armor, but mysteriously, they all sat and could not move.

“Oops! Eupup!!”

It seemed that the reason why the whole body armor was put on was simply to suppress the prisoner.

Seeing that they were unable to speak, the armor worn on the prisoners also seemed to be made of corpses.

[It looks like they put on armor to prevent the prisoner from escaping. that’s interesting. How did you come up with all these thoughts?]

It’s amazing how you know such a thing while being trapped in a necklace.

Perhaps he should try to figure out how to get rid of Rebecca sooner rather than later.

“I don’t know. I don’t feel any divine power at all. Is it the effect of the armor?”

It seemed to completely block the divinity.

This made my head complicated.

I don’t even know what the reward is, but I wonder if I should go this far.

If they were caught doing this, wouldn’t they be like a mouse driven into a corner?

Still, since he is a citizen of Carpe, the feeling of needing to be saved is a little stronger.

It seems that it is because of the duty of the nobility that is characteristic.

‘plaguy.’

This body, which is still affected by the trait, is cursed.

‘Still, it’s less than the saints.’

After thinking about it for a while, as he stands between the bars, Rebecca’s voice penetrates his head.

[ah! I get it. Are you trying to distract them and escape by freeing them all? He’s smart as expected!!]

Shocked.

Callius shook his head.

“You noticed it well.”

Callius drew his sword.

Immediately, all the bars were slashed and the armor of the oppressed prisoners was shattered.

Let’s cut the armor one by one and free the prisoners until the last one.

A familiar face appeared.

“Ka Colliers?!”

“Why are you here?”

There are a lot of injuries here and there, but it’s clear.

Looking at her red hair and alluring eyes, it is impossible not to know.

“Helena.”

The eldest daughter of the Bolivian family and one of the five stars.

It was Helena de Bolivian.

“Why are you here? You got caught too?!”

“No way. Don’t treat me like Brans.”

“That’s right!”

“Let’s run away for now.”

At the same time raising Helena.

“Devil of lust!! You have been imprisoned yourself for insulting the queen!”

“It’s like this unscrupulous slut!!”

Helena’s eyes widened.

Callius dodged and drew his sword.

“no.”

“…I didn’t say anything.”

“Anyway, no.”

His sword was stained with blood.
