159. open your eyes
#
Is your mother here? Also in this house?
Ian’s eyebrows twitched.
It wasn’t simply that she was surprised that she never knew her mother was so close.
Because she had only one reason to be close.
just as expected.
“Lady. No, I think it was a tool to intimidate the youngest princess.”
Galon approached the tormented booty with an indifferent look.
and he stabbed him in the bodyI smashed the tools I had with my feet.
“Aaah! No, I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you everything! Oh no!”
“Come on and tell me.”
“Cardinal, Cesare did it. Give me a signal and show me how to torture you with a crystal ball. If it’s too far away, you can’t show the crystal ball. I told you to wait nearby!”
Booth struggled to see if he could stand the pain.
A cruel scene, as if a knight tortured a young child.
But neither Ion nor Galon, not even White, showed any signs of sympathy.
It was natural.
“So this is between the royal palace and the mansion of the Marquis Adelas.”
“That’s right. Prince. There is a limit on the distance of the crystal ball that can even video.”
Unlike communication, the video sphere sending video had severe distance restrictions.
A few kilometers at most.
So Cesare had placed Ian’s mother close enough to show him at any time.
She said so that the saint would not rebel against him.
But that wasn’t the only problem.
With a sad expression on his face, Galon handed over the information he had obtained while tortured.
“What is this?”
“…you will see it.”
Galon hardened his face as if he couldn’t even speak with his own mouth.
Ion also hardened his face and opened the document.
But at that very moment.
“This… what the hell is this!”
Ian’s eyes had no choice but to open wider than ever.
It was natural.
Still, it was Kaistein whose checkpoints were strengthened in the atmosphere of war.
He asked how he got through there.
“You carried her mother in a coffin? To make it look like a corpse?”
That wasn’t the only thing.
“Usually, you put me to sleep with a sleeping candle so that I couldn’t escape… and burned the wounded part with fire to make the condition worse?”
So the saint would be scared and listen to her?
It was so brutal that it was unbelievable even if it was done with a horrendous effort.
It was natural for Ian’s hand to tremble with anger.
He was shot with a lively look at those who dared to sin against his mother.
Galon received his own master’s gaze precisely.
squeaky
“Aaah! Wrong!”
Gallon squashed his booty’s body, and with an indifferent glance, beckoned to the spies holding the criminals.
The spies fascinated the criminals at the gesture.
“Aaah!”
“We just did what we were told…”
“All the fault is Cardinal Cesare…”
“Aaah!”
Sinners vomited blood and screamed.
But, far from quenching Ian’s anger, he burned stronger.
“So… where is your mother now?”
Ian asked Galon with bitter eyes.
“I’m going to see my mother right now.”
Gallon approached him and bowed his head.
“sorry. We have not saved her mother-in-law yet.”
“I beg your pardon?”
Ian asked in disbelief.
“Just before. Didn’t the Lord say that he was definitely in this house?”
“It’s on the other side of the house connected to this house to be exact.”
“The house on the other side?”
Ian wiggled his eyebrows for a moment.
It was incomprehensible that Lord Gallon had not saved her even though her mother was nearby.
But he asked, pushing his anger deep into his chest.
“Then why didn’t you save me?”
“that…”
It was a time when Galon was not ready to answer.
White, the commander of Cheong-Rang, intervened.
“It’s a trap.”
“What do you mean all of a sudden?”
Ian looked back at White.
He was touching the corner wall of the interrogation room in the basement.“This wall. It seems to have been magically treated. Besides, this smell. Is it like gunpowder?”
“Is that true?”
Then Galon nodded.
“As Sir White said. It looks like it’s made to explode if you try to open it with force, let alone a magical treatment.”
“Then why don’t we go to the ground?”
“The ground is more of a problem. The number of watchers is also large. All kinds of pitfalls are bound to unfold if you enter it carelessly.”
At Galon’s beckoning, a spy came with an object.
It’s a dead rat.
What was interesting was the small iron needles embedded in the body.
Cunningly, it was embedded in the body of the mouse and could not be seen properly.
“I tried to break in, but this rat accidentally stepped on something and died instead. I tried other routes just in case…”
The spies opened a box full of rat corpses.
It was all a failure.
“But let’s rush in. The prince’s mother could be taken hostage, so I was waiting for her to be lowered.”
“Good job.”
Ian’s eyes narrowed.
No matter how angry the situation was, reason was more important than anger now.
Because his mother’s life is at stake.
So she asked again in a calm voice.
“So, did you find a way?”
“sorry. Lowering.”
Galon shook his head and pointed to his boots.
“It seems that the author knows something. They seem to be trying to hide the secret until the very end.”
“okay?”
Ian’s eyebrows twitched.
Not only did he dare to torture his mother. He hides her secrets from ever seeing him.
He approached the servant.
“You say Cesare’s orders are more important than your life?”
He looked raged with blood, but his eyebrows didn’t waver.
The servant, who was terrified at the sight, cried out.
“It is a misunderstanding. I… I just want to live.”
“You want to live? Then why are you not speaking properly?”
“If you talk to me… if you talk, I will kill you!”
Ian laughed bitterly.
“The one who played with someone else’s life. Do you really think your own life is precious?”
“That… that!”
“It has been Because I had no intention of saving you anyway.”
Ian’s sharp eyes scanned the engine.
His eyes were sharp, as if penetrating everything.
No, Ian drew his sword.
sulleung
He was about to strike the servant’s neck at once.
Seeing this, Joo Joo screamed and shook his body.
“Do you think I can be beaten like this? If you kill me, you will never see your mother for the rest of your life!”
Of course, Ian laughed.
“You must have gone crazy when it is your time to die. Are you threatening me now?”
“I no longer want to be one fingertip on my body. Not only your mother-in-law, but you too will be crushed by this building!”
Joo-joo shouted as if using evil.
“By now, Cardinal Cesare should have reached out to me. Instead of killing me, you guys will all die here!”
“okay?”
But Ian didn’t care.
Because he knew he was taking the time.
Rather, it is said that it is nothing more than a hoax that is afraid of the sound of Lee Eon killing him.
So he whispered in his ear.
“Don’t worry. Cesare, who you are waiting for, has collapsed and is unconscious.”
“That… it can’t be. The Cardinal will surely contact me…”
“How can a fainted bastard get a call from you? Your filthy smoke ends here.”
Ian puts a sword over his head.lifted
“You have insulted and insulted my mother. She can never be left alive.”
“Sleep… wait! If you kill me, you’ll never open that door. Only I can open that door.”
At the starter’s words, Ion smirked.
“okay. Know. Thanks to you, I know how to open it.”
“What…”
Without waiting any longer, Ion slashed his sword.
Scratch!
“Aaah!”
But what his sword cut was not the driver’s neck.
Just the starter’s finger.
To be precise, it was the side where the ring that Cardinal Cesare had handed over to him was stuck.
Ian raised his blood-stained fingers casually.
Then he slowly walked towards the wall.
“Is this like this?”
Then the wall moved.
rumble rumble
Even the magic circle that was considered a trap slowly lost its light.
It was only natural for Galon to ask in surprise.
“How did you know?”
Ian shrugged his shoulders.
“His eyes kept pointing towards his fingers.”
“ah!”
“I have seen such people in the past. It’s a habit of those who often bluff in gambling.”
To keep confirming his own only hope.
When gambling, the most important thing was not to tell the other person what he was saying.
But the startup failed that.
“my. Hands… my fingers… ah ah ah ah!”
Booth, who was only a child, gradually began to age his face in excruciating pain.
Her black hair was thinning out, and her skin was aging like an old woman in an instant.
Ian gave orders to his spies.
“Don’t kill them, but keep them alive.”
“Aren’t you going to kill me right away?”
White just said he was going to kill him, and asked why he didn’t kill him now.
Ian smiled broadly.
“These guys belong to my brother. So I can’t kill you now.”
“ah…”
White nodded her head.
A saint who would have watched them torture her mother all her life.
She said that it might be natural to yield to such a brother.
So Ian.
“Come on in.”
Her mother headed inside to be there.

“Turn it off..”
It was time for Cesare to wake up.
chuckle
His hands were bound to something and he couldn’t get up.
Cesare, startled, opened her eyes.
“Is this a restraint?”
Looking around, it was a ward where patients were treated.
A cold voice was heard towards the startled Cesare.
“Do not move.”
“You…?”
“Now the cardinal is a sinner. The order has been given that he may be killed if he moves as he pleases.”
“what?”
She was just the first princess.
However, there was something else that really surprised Cesare.
Her body frowns and tries to move a little.
visor!
Isn’t that the spear sticking out in front of his neck?
1 At the princess’s gesture, the guards next to her moved.
1 The princess said in a cold voice.
“This is one warning.”
“Huh… you do this even though you know that I am a cardinal of the Holy Empire.”
“Your Majesty has called you the Lord of Evil. You want to be treated like a cardinal even if you do that in front of Daejeon.”
“her…”
Cesare raised her eyebrows.
‘What the hell happened while I was down?’
He couldn’t understand how the royal family of Kaistein was so hostile.
But that wasn’t the point now.
burly
An alarm ringing in his chest.
It definitely caught the mother of a saintBecause it meant something happened to the Adun.
‘Even if you don’t know anything else, you shouldn’t lose as much as the mother of a saint.’
It was because she could no longer control the saint.
What Cesare had to do now was simple.
‘Explode the hideout.’
But there was one problem.
He had no magic tools to blow up the hideout.
Cesare asked Princess 1.
“By the way… haven’t you seen the Rosario on my neck?”
“If it’s your personal belongings, I keep them aside.”
“Then we can say a prayer of thanks. I can’t even give you back Rosario.”
But Princess 1 only raised her eyebrows.
“Soundless. Have you not heard that you are a sinner?”
“However…”
“But no. Let the sinner be still as a sinner. It is thanks to the handsome Holy Empire that you are able to receive such gentle treatment.”
“her..”
1 The princess ordered her guard knights.
“I will go out for a while and come back. Until then, keep the vigilance of sinners on guard.”
“number of people!”
“Do not grant any request to anyone. The author is not a cardinal, but a mere master of evil. Those who help him will be judged equally as the mastermind of evil.”
“number of people!”
All the guards took out their weapons.
If Cesare moved even a little, even Doctor Bell could feel it.
That was then.
“Princess 1. I am ready to go to the Duke of Lavaltor.”
“Hmmmm. okay. I will be there soon.”
At the call of the chieftain, the 1st princess hastily disappeared.
Cesare wanted to get up at this time.
chuckle
“Have you not heard the words of the princess? If you move, I will cut you.”
“Just bring me that rosary for a moment.”
“It probably won’t work. Seal his mouth and his hands.”
“Come on, wait a minute…”
Cesare pressed the object inside his body, avoiding the guards rushing at him.
Even if the building could not be blown up, it was a button to call the troops hidden nearby.
*
Ian passed through a passage that looked like a cave.
He passed through the damp cellar, and he soon reached a room that smelled of blood.
That was then.
“How do you come now? You waited a long time.”
A voice was heard from the other side.
It was clear that he was waiting for food and contact with the boots.
Ian commanded in a cold voice.
“Sir Gallon. Sir White.”
The two jumped forward without answering.
Shreung!
In an instant, the swords of the two knights shone brightly in the basement.
The other party shouted in surprise.
“what. It’s not that guy… Whoops!”
As he fell, he heard a noise from behind.
“what. What’s up!”
“Hey! What’s going on there?”
Even just hearing about it, they were people who seemed to live for a long time.
But Ian didn’t care. On the contrary, he also drew his sword.
sulleung
“Don’t leave anyone alive.”
“number of people.”
Together with Ion, the two knights swung their swords.
In an instant, the men in the basement became ghastly corpses.
Have you been fighting for so long?
“A confirmation kill, please.”
“We will take care of this. Lowering.”
Ian headed to the middle of the cellar, leaving the two knights to work.
There is a black coffin.
The blood-stained chair and crystal ball placed in front of the coffin hinted at its purpose.
Ian opened the lid of the coffin with trembling hands.
rattle
Then he saw a woman with a bare face.
Tears welled up in Ian’s trembling eyes.
“mother…”And that was the moment.
ugh.
When her coffin is opened, her sleep effect that was holding her is blown away.
Soon Ian’s mother opened her eyes.
