Innocent sinner’s foolish confession
It’s already been a week since Hyun-joon came here, but this is the first pub. I was looking forward to how it would feel, but the first impression was whether it was a real pub. It looked more like a neatly organized restaurant than a pub. The size is quite large, and the table is well organized in an orderly manner. Since it was daytime, there were only two soldiers and the June & Gunther mercenaries in the bar, except for those who worked there.
“What are you doing?”
The Jun and Gunther mercenaries were sitting in a circle, putting their heads together and whispering, but when Hyun-jun approached and said a word, everyone turned around.
“Hey, come.”
“what?”
As Hyeon-jun approached, the mercenaries grabbed him and dragged him inside.
“What’s your relationship with this son of a b*tch, Inquisitor?”
“What man?”
“I heard everything from Cain. Blow when he says good things.”
“What are you going to do if you don’t like it?”
“…….”
Oh, you can’t hit that one. Everyone clenched their fists and trembled, but in a real fight, they couldn’t even use their hands because they were afraid that they would be beaten to the brink of falling behind.
“First of all, it’s not the kind of relationship you perverts think. And Cain, we’ll see you later.”
“Did I do something wrong! I just said it like it is!”
“And whatever I have to do with the priest, what do you have to do with it?”
“How dare you and the priest!”
“Aren’t they crazy?”
Hyeon-jun pushed the clamoring guys away and made a seat and sat down. Then he grabbed a beer mug that no one seemed to have touched yet and drank it.
“Oh, not bad.”
“Explain!”
“Explain what? Just… well, we’re close friends.”
“Are you just close friends with that attitude?”
“That’s because the priest is so kind and forgives my sins.”
“That’s f*cking!”
Hyeon-jun said it as it was, but the mercenaries’ ugly heads rejected it. Then, not caring whether other people saw it or not, he started talking sh*t.
Hyeonjun slapped their hands away with one hand and drank beer leisurely.
“What is the problem?”
“It’s been a month since I followed you and haven’t met a woman!”
“Tsk tsk, vulgar bastards… . I’ll erase the memory of the priest from your vulgar and filthy brains. It is a sin worthy of death even to dare to think.”
Hyeonjun hit the heads of the attacking guys without hesitation. Even the usual serious maxim rushed. If you hit him with all his might, his neck would break and he would die, so of course he hit him just enough to make him unable to stand upright with proper force control. La Hansen was the only one who was able to sit still as he calmly drank milk.
“The vulgarity is beyond imagination.”
said La Hansen, not hiding his contempt, and drank the milk.
But with a little milk around her mouth, she looked like a child.
“More than that, Jun, don’t you have something to say?”
“Well, later in the barracks.”
“Ugh… What, what is it?”
asked Gunther, who fell to the floor and grabbed his head. Hyunjoon smiled and shrugged.
“You’re only going to tell La Hansen? You’re not going to tell nasty bastards like you?”
“Bastard!”
Hyeon-jun, who lightly avoided Gunther’s outstretched hand, sat a little away from him, and La Hansen nodded.
“Who is the Inquisitor?”
“He went to see the wounded.”
“…Really, it’s a network beyond imagination.”
“Because I live kindly.”
“you?”
“The priest is officially recognized. Heresy when refuting.”
“Damn it!”
Hyunjoon drank beer and looked around. The two soldiers and the employees were glancing at them.
‘I don’t know. Let it be whatever it is.’
What does it matter if you are a noble or Nabal? Everyone must have noticed anyway, but I’ve been dragging on useless things until now. Maybe it’s a public position with aristocrats, but who can say anything to him when there are only commoners like this?
“Your alcohol is also weak, so don’t drink too much.”
“Damn it! You are too strong!”
Hyeonjun got up after hitting one shot with the remaining beer. Then, La Hansen also got up.
“Come play more.”
“No, take this opportunity to hear the story.”
“Written, yes.”
“Uh huh, let’s go together.”
“Oh, he won’t tell me.”
“Don’t be mean.”
Hyeonjun grumbled and left the bar, followed by the mercenaries. And as soon as he returned to the barracks, La Hansen opened his mouth.
“Now explain.”
“hmm…….”
“First of all, tell me step by step what happened.”
Gunther said with a serious face. I just joked about it, but looking at La Hansen, it doesn’t seem like something to be taken lightly.
“Jun intends not to take anything after the civil war.”
“Nothing? What do you mean?”
“They said their goal was to give us one spot.”
“… … good. explain.”
Gunther took a deep breath through his nose and looked back at Hyeonjun.
Hyeonjun was sitting comfortably with his chin resting on them, looking around at them.
“It’s just that. I’ve never asked for power or titles. I build a safety net so that no one else can touch it and grow my strength. And I don’t hold any rights, and I won’t take any responsibility. Before, I intended to take power to live, but now I have power. If you have confidence and a way to survive without this, why would you hold on to that?”
“Crazy bastard.”
Hyeonjun smiled at Gunther’s sharp words. Gunther clutched his forehead and sighed.
It was kind of strange. At first, he acted as if he would do anything to increase his value, but suddenly he became strangely passive. That’s right, right after I brought in Turaion, I completely changed my attitude.
If you want to take power, you just have to get married. Benting and Lautsharn, either is the best family. But he flatly rejected it.
If you don’t want to get married, there are many ways. Build friendships and expand your influence. He’s like the eye of a storm right now, he has the pedigree, the skills, and the brain to make full use of them. Even so, he kept acting strangely.
He pretends to be with the commanders of the inner wall who want to do politics, and gets along with the commanders of the outer wall who have built a wall with politics. He doesn’t even live in a barracks for nobles. Even if the commanders on the inner wall gave a sh*t, he pushed them away even though he could build friendships and trade profits as much as he wanted.
He only took care of the way to protect himself, and pushed aside the things that he had to take care of for power and influence. The relationship with the princess was not what he wanted, and it was made out of necessity.
If you think about it carefully, it is a relationship where Hyun-joon actually has nothing in his hands.
“What will Turaion do?”
“I’ll give you my ball, and I’ll promise you freedom.”
“It’s not that simple.”
“Is it simple?”

Hyeonjun hit the hilt of his longsword. Everyone looked at him, wondering what he was talking about. Because Lahansen didn’t tell them anything.
“… After all, isn’t that what you want to do with all your strength?”
“No, did you press it?”
Hyeonjun giggled and looked back at the mercenaries.
“I told you. I’m not going to do anything. It’s just that the other person will act politely to me on their own.”
It’s like building nuclear missiles for diplomacy. If you don’t want to break your head, you have to be polite. You just need to make them believe that no matter how much power and influence they use, they can’t stop it.
“I do my best in the civil war. I will show a force that no one can nod, no one can dare to stiffly raise their head. There is no need for complex politics and influence. overwhelming power! Show it, and withdraw without taking anything. Who wants to fight such a deranged lunatic? You even carried a temple on your back?”
“You’re crazy. Are you really crazy?”
Hyeonjun smirked at Gunther’s words.
“You say you have a plan? Do I really look like such a crazy person?”
“Yes. And…”
Gunther wiped his face and let out a deep sigh. His face was a mess of fatigue and anguish, as if he had aged 10 years at once.
“Can you show that much strength?”
“It’s a plan made because it’s possible. Lahansen, what do you think?”
“… … okay. I can’t be sure, but even a fair amount of Mana Knight won’t be an opponent.”
“……under.”
The mercenaries saw Hyeon-jun climb the wall and fight, but they couldn’t see his swordsmanship properly.
But Lahansen followed him and saw more. The swordsmanship that Hyeonjun taught Wilhelmina. Now, Hyeon-joon has developed a swordsmanship that allows him to kill a knight even in a head-to-head fight, and to play with the knight. It is said that it is a swordsmanship for a hyperbolic sword, but when Hyeonjun holds a longsword, it is just a longsword swordsmanship. No matter how much Mana Knight is, how long can Hyun-Jun last if he decides to use Mana?
“If you receive Turaion’s swordsmanship, the preparations are over. The rest is mana.”
Hyeonjun hadn’t learned the knight’s swordsmanship properly yet. No matter how much he had the talent to pierce the sky, no, rather, that’s why the swordsmanship of a knight is all the more necessary.
There are too many things in his head, and they are also being created. It is a laborious task that requires a lot of time for him to discern which of the myriad things can be properly effective and what is useless.
However, if you learn a knight’s swordsmanship and completely dismantle it, you will be able to firmly establish the roots of the huge tree.
“Mana… . Mana won’t increase that fast, right?”
“No, I grow fast.”
“What nonsense is that?”
“…….”
“Damn it!”
Hyeonjun laughed softly, and Gunther spat out curse words and glared at him.
“Are you saying you can’t tell me again!”
“Sorry. It’s really hard to tell you. But you told me something else.”
“… … ha… .”
Gunther scratched his head and sighed. It’s the mood everyone wants. In the end, Gunther also decided to fall for Hyun-joon’s doggie one more time.
“What do you mean the goal is to give each of us a seat?”
“I don’t need it, but you guys do, right? La Hansen is a knight, you guys are privates from noble families.”
Everyone let out a deep sigh. I don’t even know what to say. dizzy
“Thank you for that, Captain Jun, but what are you going to do?”
Maxim asked with a serious face.
“what?”
“Even away from power and politics, I still need money.”
“I’m going to put a straw on you guys and suck your money?”
“…….”
“No, I’m joking.”
Everyone thought it was plausible. Hyun-Jun is already investing a lot of money in them and teaching them things that money can’t learn. In this way, their relationship is indeed deformed. The captain is unilaterally giving to the members.
“I decided to become a swordsmanship instructor at Venting for 13 years. His name is Benting, but he won’t give you any pennies.”
“What!”
Lahansen was startled.
“Oh, not every day, just one month a year.”
“Nonsense…! Did Benting really give up that position!”
“okay.”
Hyeon-jun answered in a sensible way, but La Hansen grabbed his head.
“You idiot! You took it and said you wouldn’t take anything!”
“No, what’s wrong?”
“Do you think Benting’s swordsmanship instructor is a position for just anyone!”
“…then?”
“Benting isn’t just such a family, he’s supposed to have a master, but he’s giving it to you!”
master? What do you mean by master?
“What master?”
“fence! master!”
“……Please explain in detail.”
Lahansen sighed, then sighed, then finally calmed down and started talking.
“Whoa…. They preserve and develop the family swordsmanship and pass it on to future generations. Master is the most honored position a warrior can receive. It means that they have the most perfect swordsmanship. The Master does it, you idiot.”
“… … I thought you only taught the basics?”
“Did you say that?”
“Uh… no. But I don’t think you’ll teach me Benting’s swordsmanship, do you?”
“How do you know when to teach and on a leash? And don’t you already know that you steal swordsmanship?”
“hmm… . I’m tired.”
“Ahhh! You idiot!”
Lahansen shook his head and screamed. Hyunjoon thought for a moment and said.
“Let’s ask Her Highness the princess.”
“… … what?”
Gunther, who had been silently watching Hyeonjun act like an idiot, asked. Hyunjoon said calmly.
“We negotiated without any gouras in the presence of the priest.”
“Do I really have to say it that way?”
“then?”
“… No, it’s done. so?”
“Let’s ask Her Highness to rub it and solve it.”
“Are you really a crazy bastard…?”
Lahansen shouted as if he had come to his senses.
“Yes! Do it!”
“… This guy went crazy too.”
“That’s what I said in the presence of the interrogator! There will be no undoing! If you use the princess!”
“No, I decided to eat my friend, but I use it a bit… . You can ask for it.”
“I beg you, can you speak in human language so that I can understand?”
“Albert Benting asked me to be friends with Her Highness.”
“Didn’t you try to use it well until now!”
“No, until then we were just strangers.”
“I don’t understand, is this normal?”
At the great welcome party, Gunther looked back at the mercenaries.
However, all of them were forced to sit in their seats with blank faces, and none of them were really paying attention to the conversation. Only Maxim was holding his head and trying to make sense of this confusing situation.
Maxim can’t keep up, so there’s no way Gunther can. Gunther nodded.
“It’s normal.”
“Jun, don’t be crazy. The princess made a promise in front of the interrogator, so you have to keep it. It’s simple. Just go and ask him to keep your promise.”
“Please, please.”
“…….”
Hyeonjun gently caught La Hansen clenching his fists and rushing at him.
Gunther nodded and spoke to Maxim.
“A three-line summary.”
“…….”
