The most beautiful, noblest, most feared
Hyeon-jun, who climbed the outer wall at night again, sprinted from side to side, then ran out of things to do and was walking around while making stones.
If I’m going to spend my time like this, I’d like to go to the walls guarded by other camps, but orders are orders. I don’t want to feel the dizziness of desertion again.
“You don’t seem to be tired.”
“Sir Gaspan.”
The gas plate came and stood. He looked at the stone being made by Hyeon-jun’s hand for a while and said.
“Very versatile. Great.”
“thank you.”
Hyunjoon replied with a smile. Talking to the gas panel is comfortable. It’s because, like Gallion, he secretly says something with an unpleasant aftertaste and doesn’t look at each angle.
“Do you think you are free?”
“To be honest, yes.”
At that, Gaspan grinned. The soldiers around him also smiled. It’s usually a hectic time. Gaspan must have run around brandishing a sword to kill the monster that climbed up the castle wall. But at the busiest time, I became free. It will probably be like this all the time Hyun-joon climbs the outer wall in the future. It’s amazing.
‘A truly amazing man.’
Gaspan, a knight, will be able to kill monsters by running through the walls like Hyeon-jun. But he wouldn’t be able to move as long as Hyeon-joon, and he wouldn’t be able to move as fast as that.
Accelerating at once by activating the magic of full plate armor consumes a lot of mana and puts a great burden on the body. Once used, the magic of the armor must be given time to heal the body. Otherwise, the joint will not hold up and will be crushed. In a short-term decisive battle, the knight wearing full plate armor is stronger. But that was only if Hyeon-joon didn’t use mana.
‘Didn’t he even say that he had reached the level of Mana Knight?’
There is no one who doesn’t know about Hyeon-jun because the story has already turned around. The story of the banquet held on the inner wall also spread widely among the commanders. Because Gallion made a move. It is to reduce the influence of the inner wall commanders for the sake of the future, and to make a blemish. It wasn’t simply for Hyeon-jun, but it was a great benefit to Hyeon-jun as well.
‘It’s the eye of the storm.’
Gaspan is excitedly looking forward to what this man is aiming for and how far he can go. The same goes for other commanders who have built a wall with politics.
However, if you are a person who has entered politics, Hyun-jun is difficult to treat as an enemy and difficult to embrace. It’s because the Marquis is giving it a lot of power. No matter how much Hyun-joon behaves like a dog, you have to maintain a proper relationship.
“Would you like to walk for a while?”
“yes.”
Hyeonjun wanted to know what this article was about, but accepted it. Anyway, there was nothing to do, and Gaspan was not a man to do tricks. He won’t bring up troubling stories like other nobles.
Hyeonjun walked side by side with the gas plate and glanced up at the sky. As usual, the unspoiled night sky is always stunning. You can even see the stars from the top of the castle walls, which are covered with torches.
“I was told to go to Turaion, but you’ve made a big decision.”
In the past, the gas panel was also a topic that I had been avoiding because I was afraid that a troublesome story would come out. But now we are trying to get to know each other. I have no choice but to take it out.
“It’s a decision made by the head of household.”
In fact, Hyeon-jun brought it in and Devan decided, but Rivetran is the go-to. Rivetran must have taken care of it.
“Umm…. That’s a fearsome level of determination.”
The Tureyon of Taxis were originally an unknown knight family. Because they were so loyal as knights, they were considered a family that didn’t have to give them an advantage, and their family status was declining.
However, an outstanding knight named Dvan Tureion accomplished the feat of subjugating Tantares, and his name quickly spread throughout the southern kingdom.
“Taxis did nothing to Thurrayon.”
“That, I can’t believe it.”
Even though Turaion occupied the brightest spot at the triumphal ceremony, it was unable to secure substantial interests and influence. Why would you give money if you live on honor alone?
“How can a nobleman neglect his vassal?”
Hyunjoon laughed inwardly. Venting’s vassal-like words that he held down until he was about to explode due to his lack of energy. If the nobility is doing politics, how can the award be given equally to all retainers? However, in this case, it also happened because of the image that Turaion has created so far. You can’t just blame Taxis.
It’s hard to imagine that a dog that’s been satisfied with food all of its life would suddenly bite its owner and taste the blood. From that point of view, from Taxis’ point of view, it might seem that Turaion was preparing for a betrayal.
“Wouldn’t each family be different?”
Hyeon-joon didn’t explain it in detail and passed it on lightly. Because it’s too complicated, and there’s nothing good to say.
Of course, anyone with a sense of politics would already know this, but Gaspan couldn’t seem to be that type.
“I’m sorry I don’t know much about this, but if you’ll excuse me, can I hear about the Handurk family?”
“Well, I understand. Not a very traditional family.”
Gaspan said nonchalantly. Even so, I say it so calmly. On the contrary, Hyunjoon was taken aback.
“It started when my grandfather was knighted. Thanks to that, my father was able to become a knight and also get a chance to make a contribution. More than thirty years ago, the outer wall was breached, and at that time, my father was the commander of the inner wall. You blocked it brilliantly and raised the family with that ball. Well, actually, the inner wall wasn’t going to be pierced. It’s just a ball that I made because I didn’t make a mistake.”
‘Is this okay?’
Embarrassed, Hyunjoon glanced at him. It’s a story that raised a family, but isn’t it too harsh? And if the Marquis wasn’t stupid, and if it was something really insignificant, he wouldn’t have let him establish a family. In order to establish an aristocratic family, it is necessary to achieve great feats that nod their heads no matter who hears them.

“How did the outer wall break through? I can’t believe it.”
“hahahahaha, didn’t you build the inner wall because the outer wall was perforated?”
“…….”
At that outspoken statement, Hyeonjun noticed the soldiers. Are you okay? Surprisingly, the soldiers are listening calmly. There is not even a word of agitation.
“Does this happen often?”
“It doesn’t happen often. It doesn’t happen often unless the monsters in the mountains are saturated and pour out, or large monsters don’t come out. There are no soldiers weak enough to be pierced by medium-sized monsters.”
“Then I don’t think it would have been a small ball.”
“It wasn’t a small feat. Part of the outer wall collapsed when the worm appeared, and if the worm dug in, the inner wall would be in a precarious situation. ”
At those words, Hyunjoon couldn’t help but admire. he’s a really awesome guy Worms are large insect-type monsters that burrow into the ground. You killed a guy who grew big enough to knock down the outer wall to protect the front line, but you take it so lightly.
“hahahaha, don’t look at it that way. Even if the commanders on the inner wall do troublesome things, they’re all talented. There’s not a single one on the Eastern Mountains front that’s less than that.”
“hmm….”
Do the commanders of the Inner Wall really have the ability to do that? I don’t think so? No, maybe it’s because the commanders on the outer wall are so good that they look that way. Hyeon-jun has never seen how the commander of the inner wall actually commands.
“By the way, can you hear the story of the subjugation of Tantares?”
“Ha ha ha! Of course. I was there too.”
“Really? Great!”
As Hyeonjun and Gaspan said as they walked, the soldiers glanced at each other. what? The story of killing a monster that will go down in the history of the southern kingdom is solved by the person who fought on the spot? How many people can stand this? However, they were the elite of the elite who guarded the eastern mountain range, and while paying attention, they did not leave their seats or neglect their vigilance. bear with this
Gaspan nodded while listening to Hyeonjun’s story. He listens so intently that he nods his head the entire time he speaks, almost worrying. Even so, Hyeon-jun felt that he was constantly watching his surroundings with sharpened senses. He is a true commander.
“Certainly, he must be inexperienced.
“No. Actually Lord Devann said that.”
The two of them walked on top of the wall while talking. When they reached the end of the wall, Hyeon-jun looked outside the wall and said.
“I have to move again.”
“So be it. I enjoyed it.”
“It is the same.”
Hyeon-joon backed away, and was shot at a tremendous speed. Gaspan looked at the distant back and then moved on again. The conversation was pleasant, but I wasn’t out to play, and I couldn’t take command of the outer wall lightly. However, it can’t be helped that the steps are a little lighter.
***
The next morning, another Gallion seed came to Hyeon-jun after eating.
Hyeonjun greeted him with a smile, but deep down he wished he would just leave without saying anything. At least I hope you don’t tell Gallion to go.
“His Highness Wilhelmina Lautsharn, the legitimate successor of Fautus Lautsharn, the King of the Southern Kingdom, and the true gold who will lead Lautsharn, is due to arrive tomorrow.”
“… … okay.”
… … What is he saying now? Why do you attach your highness to the princess and not attach anything to the king? And since when did the princess become the legitimate heir? Because that’s not the case, the succession structure has been ruined. And what else is the true gold that will lead Lautsharn? Do you know that the princess also calls herself that way?
“Don’t climb the wall tomorrow, get up early in the morning and cleanse yourself…”
Hyeon-jun calmly listened to Gallion’s attendants washing their bodies, how to dress, and what manners to say. Fortunately, his head and body dutifully remembered the damn thing. Once you see the etiquette, you can follow it right away. Rather, Hyeon-jun was able to sharpen the awkward part of the servant’s movement.
“Okay. Give thanks to Lord Gallion.”
“yes.”
The servant withdrew, and Hyeon-jun looked back at the mercenaries.
“How are you doing?”
“What if you ask us about it?”
“…That’s right. No, La Hansen! You’re the only one!”
“Didn’t he tell you everything earlier?”
“Say something helpful!”
“What more can I do?”
“Damn it! That’s right!”
It was informed by a squire of the Benting estate where the princess is staying. You should know more precisely than La Hansen. oh my god! Lahansen isn’t helpful when it comes to royalty and nobility!
“Rather than that, what’s the long description that precedes the name?”
“Aren’t you saying who the princess is?”
“Before, they just told me to tell them.”
“I told you because you don’t know anything. Your ignorance has been exposed.”
“I’m sorry, please stop…”
He was acting so bluntly because he had been teasing the other day. still a kid If that’s the case, Hyun-jun, who wants to retaliate with training, is also right.
“There is really nothing I can do for you this time.”
“Wow, I’m going crazy. What should I do? Do I have to cover my eyes?
“The princess will really like it if she looks like that in front of the princess.”
“Damn it!”
La Hansen let out a deep sigh. Then, after choosing words for a while, he opened his mouth.
“Didn’t you do it confidently when you faced the Marquis? What’s the problem?”
“That is strange.”
“No, that’s true, but isn’t that what you’re talking about?”
At Hyeonjun’s words, La Hansen grabbed his forehead. Still, you might be able to rate it highly because you know you’re weird.
“Just follow the etiquette. In the first place, until the princess gives permission, you cannot raise your head, and even if you raise your head, you cannot look directly into the eyes.”
“Will that work?”
“…….”
Hyeonjun has a very wide field of view. Also, unlike ordinary humans, when focusing on one thing, other things become blurry, Hyun-Jun’s vision catches other things relatively clearly. Even with her eyes down, if the princess’s eyes were within her field of vision, she would catch them clearly.
Also, when humans look at other people, the first thing they look at is their eyes. There, Hyun-jun is unmanned. Instinctively, you have no choice but to look into the eyes of the person you are facing.
“… Do your best, as usual.”
“You heartless bastard!”
Hyeonjun whined and clung to La Hansen, but he couldn’t help it. The other mercenaries weren’t even involved in the story at all. What advice can these guys who used to work as mercenaries and adventurers give to meet the princess?
“Why did you come so soon! Come after winning the civil war! Then we won’t have to meet!”
“…….”
Hyunjoon talked nonsense, but no one responded. La Hansen finally thought about it and sighed.
“Ask the commanders at the castle wall. As always, you’re popular with men, so didn’t you become close with them right away?”
“… … I’ll give you a special look this time.”
“Ha. Is that so?”
It’s to the point of worrying that La Hansen keeps saying things like that. However, there is really no one to lean on other than the commanders of the outer wall. Gallion? That’s all I was told by sending the seed, so wouldn’t that mean don’t come? No, do you mean come back?
‘… Still, I want to postpone going to Gallion.’
Gallion is a seasoned aristocrat, so that’s certainly helpful, but getting entangled that deeply is awkward. Climb up the wall with the mercenaries in the afternoon and talk to the commander.
‘…How is it?’
Hyunjoon trembled with anxiety and let out a sigh.
