Chapter 694

Chapter 694

After entering Levien with the Broken Rose Mercenary Group and the Laughing Bell Group under the guidance of the Dragon Knights, everything went smoothly.

It didn’t end simply as an internal problem in Itisel, but because of the excuse of sabotage during the war with the Demon King’s army, the three countries belonging to the Allied Forces, excluding Volta Bay, were beaten like dogs all day long, and with all sorts of evil acts including sabotage against the patrolling dragon knights mentioned, they ended up in a situation that was no different from being in a corner.

Aside from the thought that they really thought they could get away with this, I was shocked to hear that they were really busy fighting each other in front of their house up there, making a big fuss.

And needless to say, I wasn’t the only one who felt that way.

“The people of the empire and even the royal family are very displeased that such unfortunate incidents have occurred despite the fact that this war is not just a simple conflict between races, but a continent-wide problem that requires concern over the return of the evil god.”

It was serious enough to slap the word ‘unpleasant’ in front of someone at an official event, but the imperial envoys didn’t stop at just saying it, and they didn’t even hide their contemptuous expressions.

Naturally, those who were seated as representatives of the empire could not express their personal feelings. Their every word and expression was the will of the imperial family. In the face of statements that were no different from rushing in with the intent to kill, let alone mediate between the Allied Forces and Itisel, the three kingdoms had no choice but to accept most of the conditions presented by the Itisel royal family without objection.

Of course, I did my part. I just sat there and glared at them, but the representatives of the three kingdoms were always looking at me with a look of surprise whenever I said a word. It was quite a sight to see them change their words in surprise when a wrinkle appeared between their eyebrows.

“The agenda related to the Allied Forces has been discussed enough today, so we will share the rest of the details with the royal family through a separate letter, and from tomorrow, we will discuss the formation of a new garrison centered around the mercenary corps recommended by Lord Ega.”

While leaving the conference room, Bisqunte, who was happily recalling the meeting that continued without dinner, explained the schedule to me. From the moment he came in after clearing out the camp in front of the city, he was extremely calm the whole time, as if he had expected me to come and turn everything upside down.

He even showed consideration by coming to me and explaining things to me even though I didn’t ask or ask him to do so, so he can be called a true knight of this era.

“I was worried that I might have brought it up too rashly, but it was surprisingly easy to pass.”

“Yes? Of course. Who would dare to spit on the fact that the warriors of the Masin Church personally selected the personnel to protect the territory of the sect?”

Huh? Is that how the story goes? I rolled my eyes for a moment in surprise at the unexpected answer, and Bisquente, who didn’t miss that moment of confusion, smiled awkwardly and continued talking.

“Oh, I guess you haven’t heard yet because you’ve been busy with work and private affairs. Strictly speaking, the territory of the Demon Territory that Itisel is currently occupying is not Itisel’s. It’s just ‘recovering’ the territory of the Demon Church.”

It was a short but meaningful explanation that got to the point, and I couldn’t help but be impressed by Visquente’s amazing summarizing ability.

With just one sentence, he informed me that if the Demon King is driven out, all nations will join forces to designate the Demon Territory as the Holy Demon Nation, and at the same time, he made me realize the weight of my words as a warrior who inevitably has a close connection to the future Nation.

After that, we talked about various things, but it was concluded that there was no need for me to participate, as there was nothing special about it. Bisquente, who filled in my lack of knowledge and information, left to deal with the next matter, and only then did I have some free time, so I wandered around the castle to see Sanyeom-nim, even if it was late.

In fact, before entering the meeting, I had already heard from Lord Radnelbandes where Mr. Sanim was, but the problem was that the location was the library.

Although I had fought while stationed at Levien, I had not walked around the castle enough to remember everything about it, so I did not know where the library was!

I regretted not asking for the specific location, thinking I would find it if I just wandered around. After asking everyone I met, I finally arrived at the library and surprisingly quickly found Mr. Sanyeom despite the library’s vast size.

It was even harder to find it because he was sitting in a wall of books that he had already read or was about to read.

“Is it true that you spend most of your days here?”

“The gap between my last memory and the present is so big, I never got bored.”

Mr. Sanyeom naturally looked up from his book without showing any sign of surprise, glanced at me as if nothing had happened, and then tilted his head.

“I would like to ask how on earth you were able to encounter the remnants of a new evil spirit in such a short period of time.”

Today seems to be a day where I only encounter unexpected results or reactions. Sanyeom-nim smiled in an incomprehensible way, perhaps because he found my reaction of wide-opening eyes in surprise funny. He continued talking while pointing to the esthetic on his waist.

“Your sword, I sensed the remnants of Lacosma fading away within it, I knew there were still some of his creations left.”

“How in the world can you even know such a thing?”

“It will be difficult as time goes by, but it’s not that organized yet.”

No matter what, he was still God.

However, the person in question, Mr. Sanyeom, shrugged his shoulders as if it was nothing, put a bookmark in the book he was reading, closed it, and offered to sit across from him.

“Is your time okay? If you have time, I’d like you to sit down for a bit and tell me the story of your relationship with Lacosma.”

“Of course”

I was a little hungry, but I gladly accepted because the conversation with Sanyeom was more important than the momentary hunger.

And the conversation that started like that continued until late at night.
