Knights, Let’s Smash Them

99 – I’ll beat you up too (3)

At least in the Volibert Empire, there is probably no one who has not heard of the name Space Mage Bernard, if you are familiar with magic or aura.

Even for those who are teased by me for being a mantleman, the title of space wizard was not something that could be obtained for free.

Regardless of whether or not the knights were gathered, Bernard strode into the conference room and quickly picked up a corruption heart from the bag lying in front of me.

Bernard injects mana straight into the artifact in question.

A blue light flashed on the matte sphere for an instant, then split in two with a crackling sound.

“What, what are you doing!!”

Seeing that the artifact, which could be regarded as an important piece of evidence, was smashed in front of her eyes, Xi’an cried out in embarrassment.

Bernard stopped her by holding out her palm in a very cool gesture of hers.

“Access. Difficulty.”

Lilia Hebron and Xianne’s faces crumpled at the same time as they couldn’t see properly after opening their eyes. It was a hand gesture that made it impossible to understand at once why Bernard had been single until now.

And the proper explanation for that behavior is ultimately up to me.

“I don’t know if the Imperial Black Lion Knights are aware, but a few months ago we, the Snow Leopard Knights, subdued the sub-dragon ‘Worm’ that settled in the Ardaros Mountains.”

“You mean worms?”

The chief engineer who accompanied Levia replied in a surprised tone. Because he was also a person with whom I knew each other, he did not have much hostility.

“Worms in the northern regions…… I never thought of it.”

“It wasn’t just the county of Rupel, but it crossed the mountain range to the dukedom of Hebron as well. Fortunately, Princess Lilia, who happened to accompany her, provided proper help in subjugating her, so we were able to finish without much damage.”

When I subtly pointed out Lilia’s balls, she faintly rolled her eyes. It’s being ashamed

She was the one who showed off her blunt expression externally, just like her nickname of ‘lofty gray wolf’…….

Actually, if you get to know her, she was more honest with her reactions than anyone else.

“That’s why the wizards of the Larva Ecological District were here.”

“That is correct. And coincidentally…… I just heard yesterday that a corruption heart was found in the worm in question.”

“…… !!!”

You didn’t know this, did you?

The reason why Bernard was able to run from Bordova, the northernmost tip of the county, to Monterto, the southernmost tip, all at once.

The guy who visited Petaronto came down to Monterto right away in order to deliver the related information by discovering the Corruption Heart in question.

“Is that true?”

“That’s right. And I just finished figuring out the magic structure of this Corruption Heart.”

“Then why did you infuse mana earlier—”

“Yes, I reverse-engineered it.”

After all, artifacts are made of magic, so if you have enough skill and time, you can figure out their structure.

It’s like computer programming. The concept of checking the logic of a program by opening the source.

However, in reality, it was much more complicated than normal programming and required advanced magic skills.

A black magician capable of crafting a corruption heart isn’t an asachintahikikomori wizard residing in a wooden shack.

In a matter of seconds, Bernard solved such a task.

I’m not a genius for nothing.

“How was the result?”

“As you would expect, Lubern.”

Bernard said that and put the broken corruption heart on the desk.

“Structurally, they match 100%.”

I even received the confirmation of the space wizard. It has become an undeniable fact.

“The sudden appearance of worms in the northern regions. The fact that the bizarre Arachne was harming people in the southern part of Rupel’s territory… In the end…….”

As if I couldn’t believe it, I gave a clear answer to Xianne, who, to be precise, seemed to be trying hard to deny it.

“It is the work of the same person, no, the same force.”

***

The Imperial Black Lion Knights.

The Wolfpack Knights of the Hebron Territory.

And finally, the Snow Leopard Knights.

The meeting of the representatives of the three knights ended quickly with the appearance of Bernard.

Since things have come this far, it was not simply a matter of ending at the Knights level.

First of all, the Imperial Black Lion Knights said they would conduct an investigation at the imperial level to see if there were any territories with similar reports.

Lilia Hebron, the commander of the 2nd Division of the Wolf, delivered a letter to Siegbert Bauer, the commander of the knights, and Harald Hebron, the Duke of Hebron, given the situation.

It is the Duchy of Hebron that is geographically very close to the Rupel Territory.

There is no guarantee that the activities of the warlocks will be limited to Rupel’s territory, so the same goes for the Duchy.

In addition to that, the assistant bishop of the Emperor’s Office, who is in charge of the Rupel Territory, and the Laterano Autonomous Territory have agreed to send a high-ranking priest from the Heretic Judgment Bureau, since the situation is in a situation.

When an incident breaks out, it is the knights who are dispatched, but in the end, the decisions are made by those higher up than them.

So, along with Count Dionaos Rupel and Baron Kirten Mexis, Harald the Duke of Hebron and the Lateran Inquisitor.

Including the imperial inspectors who will arrive at a later date, it is practically the same as all-stars gathered in one place in the Volibert Empire.

Wow, just imagining it makes me shudder.

I’ll have to go and run away.

Am I not the only one sticking out my tongue at the unusual Avengers assembly?

“Then we will go back to the capital. After all, the personal affairs of the two apprentice knights and the head of the administration have been safely taken over.”

I nodded at the words of the chief engineer. The eyes looking at me are strangely moist.

It’s like a person who knows everything, so an unspoken request to let go.

Basically, the Black Lion Knights don’t have a good relationship with the Imperial Court, and recently, their souls have been stolen by the imperial inspectors, so it’s only natural that they don’t want to get involved.

Originally, if anyone gets stuck in the inspection room, they can’t move.

“You do that…… However, I think Petra’s administrative chief will have to watch the trend a little more.”

“Yes? What do you mean?”

“I am complaining of severe anxiety. He seems to want to rest for a while.”

“If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be better to settle down in the safe capital?”

“Ah, that is… ….”

I couldn’t give a proper answer to the head of the driver’s team who asked back as if he didn’t understand.

Of course not.

It’s a lie that I tried to wrap up.

Petra suddenly announced her departure from the Black Lion Knights.

I couldn’t ask for an exact opinion because the meeting was right around the corner, but it seemed clear that he didn’t want to go back with the Black Lion Knights today anyway.

I took the ambiguous name of an anxiety disorder and attached it as an appropriate excuse.

I’m not even the NTR guy from Cattomi.

‘Petra says she won’t be satisfied with your knights anymore? I’ll make good use of the pretty administrative manager and return it later, so please wait patiently.’

You can’t even talk like that, can you?

“I was attacked on the way…… Yes, I think it would be better to wait until it calms down.”

“Hmm, then it can’t be helped.”

Fortunately, the head of the driver’s office passed without a hint of doubt.

But there is always a problem.

“What? What are you talking about? No way.”

Our leader of the Chewing Gum Knights was bound to come.

“Captain Levia.”

“I told you, I will never see that damn man and our Templars side by side.”

Wow, you still have great personality.

However, I wonder if I can say something like that casually in front of my face.

It seems that the habit of being polite to anyone without courtesy has not been corrected in the end.

From noble mtl dot com.

Originally, people said it wasn’t easy to rewrite. In particular, the stronger the ego of oneself, the less flexible and less easily broken.

How to rot like that.

Perhaps Xianne, who was listening to the story beside her, thought this was a bit harsh, so she stepped forward and stood between Levia and me.

“You’re talking too much. Is there something wrong with our magistrate?”

“I think it would be better to avoid the outsiders.”

“Yes?”

Levia’s eyes narrowed. Xi’an Ne’s expression hardened at her words of being an outsider. She seemed to be wondering if she had heard it correctly.

“Woah, outsider? Who are you saying is an outsider? This is definitely Count Rupel. Even though they are members of the Imperial Knights, it feels quite insulting to show such an attitude.”

Of course, my mother, Lucy, is also a person who does not back down when she sees injustice.

“The Magistrate of Luberne is a gift to our Knights. If you insult that gift, aren’t you insulting the Snow Leopard Knights and me?”

My heart warmed in an instant. Even though they’re the same blonde girl, how different are they?

As expected, Cyan is the best.

Truly Archangel!!!!!!

Especially after she heard all the crap about Levia directly from me.

It was all the more so because the reverence she deserved for her, who was already the leader of her imperial knights, had not penetrated her bottom and had reached her inner core.

“Hmm…… Do you really think so? I had no intention of insulting the Knights, Commander Xianne.”

Parts suit.

A spirit as if electricity were being shot.

I tried hard to calm down my heart that was about to become grand, and I tried to calm Cianne and Levia.

Honestly, Levia is thick, but it’s a specification that things get bigger here.

“Well, it’s hard to believe when you see it now.”

“Ha?”

“Please apologize. Now. Right now.”

In an instant, the atmosphere became several times more threatening.

The head of the driver’s team is clearly embarrassed.

No, I don’t usually do that, but why is it like this today?

Hey there, mother Lucy. I mean calm down!

But the chaos was just the beginning.

“If that’s the case, there’s something I need to apologize to that man for. It’s not enough that he arbitrarily gave his resignation and ran away, and now he’s even trying to take out an important person who is working well…… Wouldn’t it be a shame?”

The mad b*tch started bringing the past into my mouth.

It’s not like I never meant to get it out, but that doesn’t mean I’m trying to get it out, right?

“If that man apologizes first, I will apologize too. Are you okay?”

“…… You really!”

“You? Even though I am the captain of the knights of the county, is it okay to talk like that to me, the leader of the imperial knights?”

f*cked.

At this point, it seemed like we were going to have a real honor duel.

This is the worst situation for both the Snow Leopard Knights and the Black Lion Knights.

At the end of the day, the head of the driver’s team and I were about to step out at the same time.

A brunette appeared at the meeting to end this war.

“I said I wanted to stay, Captain Levia.”

“Petra Bastian?”

With one hand holding a white envelope with the words ‘letter of resignation’ written clearly on it.

No matter how you look at it, far from finishing it, it seems like more oil will be poured on it.
