Episode 78.
Leah entered a dark back alley.
I did not miss this time and followed.
To be honest, I didn’t have to follow it.
‘Because I already know the location.’
I wore a mask prepared in advance.
A black mask with only the eyes and nose pierced.
‘It was as simple as covering my face without revealing my identity.’
I couldn’t think of such a simple method.
I was ashamed of myself.
***
Underground in the slums of Caldert’s estate.
Leah and the mysterious man were talking.
“So, you’re saying you can just fake this medicine as a nutritional supplement?”
“okay. But if I fail again, I have no chance.”
Leah couldn’t help but swear inwardly.
Apparently, the necklace was placed in Milia’s room as planned.
And Milia had been quite pleased with the necklace.
It was natural.
The plan proceeded sequentially.
‘I’ve endured that b*tch’s annoyance.’
Thinking of the title that Leah herself would obtain in the future.
But the plan failed.
Because of the damn youngest.
‘Did you know that he was able to defeat the demons?’
Suhar, the youngest child and bastard of the Caldert family.
Suhar stopped Milia from rampaging.
Besides, he knew the secret of the necklace.
‘Because he was so gloomy, I didn’t care.’
After realizing that he was an illegitimate son, Suhar became dark.
But it was part of the plan.
if it was as planned.
‘Milia kills the rest of the siblings, and the youngest inherits the county.’
He suddenly gave up the position of successor.
So, as the next best thing, he tried to make Caldert’s younger son, Alt, count.
But the plan kept going wrong.
The assassination of the eldest son also failed.
‘Damn it, even if he hadn’t given up on the successor race…’
According to Leah, the culprit was Suhar.
If everything went according to plan, Suhar becomes a count.
However, the bloodline itself is only half commoner.
That is why even if Suhar dies, the vassals will not move.
‘If that were the case, the Caldert family would have come into our hands.’
And Leia herself would become a noble.
I remembered the abilities I had.
An obscure ability.
‘The ability to grant an effect similar to enchantment to an object.’
It is because of these abilities that he has been given an important role in this organization.
The sound of waking Leah, who was locked in thought for a while.
It was noisy outside.
“What happened?”
“I don’t know either.”
It was the moment when the mysterious man opened the door to check outside.
As the door shattered, the mysterious man fell to his knees, groaning in pain.
A dagger was lodged in the thigh of the mysterious man.
And one man coming out of the broken door.
“Is there a place like this?”
It was Suhar who hid his identity with a mask.
***
The basement of the slums was wider than expected.
And it was covert.
The best place to plot.
After tidying up from the outside, I finally reached the place where Leah was.
Outside the door, I felt someone walking towards the door.
I threw daggers scattered around me with telekinesis.
The door pierced by the dagger shattered and lodged in the man’s thigh.
And I found Leah with a shocked expression.
“Is there a place like this?”
I was having a party in this place.
I hadn’t noticed this at all before returning.
I thought I was pretty smart, but I guess I wasn’t.
‘Or the drug clouded my mind.’
Leah drew a dagger from her bosom and aimed it at me.
Laughter came out of nowhere.
“What do you do with it?”
I used my telekinesis to steal Leah’s dagger.
Leah’s expression was worth seeing.
like.
‘I have the ability, but why…?’
It was the expression.
“Why are our compatriots interfering with us!”
Because it’s interfering…
“Because you offended me?”
You have ruined my family.
It has not yet been done, but it has been done.
I know the background of Leah well.
Leah, a street orphan, was taken up by Tessiar’s mother.
And she was raised as a maid.
‘A b*tch who doesn’t even know grace.’
He betrayed the Caldert family, who raised him to be a nobleman and sent him a helping hand.
this is a great sin
In fact, because of Leah, everyone in my family died except for me.
“You have to kill me to feel better.”
Resentment breeds resentment.
I don’t believe this at all.
The dead do not speak.
“for a moment! Do you know who we are!”
“huh.”
From nob le mt l. co m
Noblesse.
A rebel who wants to restore the former glory and kill the nobility, the royal family, and the imperial family.
“If you kill me, our organization will not forgive you.”
“doesn’t care.”
Because I intend to exterminate you before you forgive me.
I felt a wriggling movement behind me.
It was a man with a dagger stuck in his thigh.
A man who poured out energy different from mana from him.
I absorbed that energy with telekinesis.
“Don’t try to do anything weird.”
The moment that energy touched my body, what had just happened flashed into my mind from the man’s point of view.
It seems that this man’s ability is the ability to send memories.
‘This can’t be helped.’
He cut off the man’s head.
Except for me, there was no way to notice this ability, so anyone with this ability had to be killed.
“You are next.”
It was Leah who did not blink an eye even when a person died in front of her eyes.
“Damn, I thought I’d try my life.”
Leah doesn’t show reflection until the end.
I cut Leah’s throat.
and left the place.
I looked at the slums from afar.
‘Finally Dave has arrived.’
I talked to my brother Dave.
I also finished explaining them.
The majority of people in the organization were people with insignificant abilities.
So many people were saved.
‘Perhaps their crime will be treason.’
He left behind the evidence that he intended to harm the Caldert family.
Even if there was no data, I told Dave to fake it.
It’s a little solemn, but that’s because the words of a nobleman are like the law.
‘I have to go home now.’
From nob le mt l. co m
Now it was time to meet the missing family.
***
Everyone greeted me when I came home after a long time.
However, the welcome to me did not last long.
“What! Treason!”
It was because of the information that Dave brought during the meal.
Because of that, the count’s family was infinitely busy.
Dave came to visit me while I was resting in my room.
“How did you find out about Leah?”
“Um…you told me that I was a mercenary.”
“yes.”
“But I found an organization related to the demons.”
To be precise, there was an organization that tried to summon demons.
“I got data about that organization…”
It was said that there was also information about the Caldert family in that document.
And in that document, Leah’s work was also written down.
“That is such a great coincidence. But if it was that much confirmation, you could have told me.”
It was.
Obviously I told Dave that I wasn’t sure.
“I wasn’t sure. Leah’s name was not written. It’s just what you did to the Caldert family.”
This seems to have been an excuse to some extent.
“Oh right. I forgot this.”
“what?”
“Congratulations. Becoming a Sword Master.”
“Ah… thank you.”
It was natural.
I gave my identity to Dave.
Dave hyung must have been watching with interest.
Dave said carefully.
“So I have a question…”
“What are you curious about?”
Any questions?
“Did you fight the champion at the Colosseum?”
Come to think of it, my match results haven’t arrived until Dave hyung yet.
I came back shortly after the game was over.
“Um… I did.”
“Oh, I see···.”
Dave hyung looking at me sadly.
I seemed to be misunderstanding something.
“As expected, even if I became a sword master, it would not be enough to defeat my senpai.”
He seemed to think that I had been defeated by Pastar.
Why do you think so?
“You think I lost?”
“Yeah…”
Dave hyung thought the reason I came back was because I was defeated and couldn’t be in the Colosseum anymore.
I told you honestly.
“I won.”
“what?”
“I am the champion of the Colosseum.”
“really···?”
“I would lie about something like that.”
Dave hyung who can’t believe it at all.
“Then, why are you here?”
“Your brother sent me a letter. Leah went to a suspicious place.”
“That’s… by the way. Then, what about the Colosseum?”
“I am retired.”
“what?”
First of all, I need to tell Dave my purpose.
“I’m going to take a little rest at home and then go on a trip.”
“travel?”
“Yes, travel.”
Continental travel under the pretext of eliminating the branch of the organization widely across the continent.
I wanted to find a place to settle down.
“What kind of trip is this all of a sudden?”
“Ummm… Just?”
Remaining in the Caldert family would not be a bad choice.
However, the Caldert family did not suit the life I wanted.
So it was close to a trip to find a place to settle down.
Eliminating a branch of an organization is both a business and an accident.
“Well, I won’t stop you if you want to.”
“thank you.”
“But my father and mother will be a little disappointed.”
That… I know.
It’s been a while since I ran away from home, so now I’m going on a trip.
You won’t have to worry about it.
Even if I say I’m a sword master.
“I have to reassure you somehow.”
It is something that you should not be a son under the shadow of your parents forever.
However, because I spent my childhood too crookedly, I only interacted with my family for a short time.
Well, I thought it would be nice to see more of them in the future.
***
A month had passed since he came to the Caldert family.
“Let’s leave tomorrow for real.”
The original purpose was to take a week off.
But it was so comfortable.
The rice came out on its own, and everything was solved just by lying down and sleeping.
that was so comfortable
“Because I have to visit the sword saint.”
Like the Caldert family, the Sarkid family was going to be in danger.
Well, I didn’t move because I had room.
“Haa… I really hate it.”
An organization called Noblesse.
If only it wasn’t for this organization that bothers me.
What would I have done if it didn’t exist in the first place?
“Well, let’s think of that…”
To no avail.
From nob le mt l. co m
No more delay.
tomorrow.
Just tomorrow I will visit Sarkid.
“I’ll help the Sword Saint…”
The time for revenge has come.
After rescuing Sarkid from danger, he will confidently demand a sparring with the swordsman.
The time has come to wash away the resentment in the back of the head that has been hit until now.
“I can finally get my revenge.”
Of course, when facing the Sword Saint, I will show my strength.
I will use telekinesis without hiding it.
“Hee hee, let’s see.”
Resentment and grace are doubled, not forgotten.
At the thought of stabbing the Sword Saint in the back, joy rose from the depths of his heart.
“Is it too harsh?”
I’m quite old, but I thought that hitting the back of the head would be a little harsh.
“Hey, what does age matter? It’s a Sword Saint.”
Speaking of the sword saint’s body, it would be stronger than most people.
“Then, let’s really start tomorrow.”
The time to start the journey, starting with the Sarkid Territory, has really come.
“Of course, after going to the Sarkid territory, I have to stop by the free city I was begging for.”
I have to take Har, my pet monster I haven’t seen in a long time.
“But Har has not forgotten me?”
Leaving behind the creeping anxiety, I went to sleep.
