Chapter 1011

Episode 1011. You appoint Elio as a knight.

Marquis Bernardo did not say anything for a while.

It’s good if the vassal’s ability is outstanding, but it’s a problem if it’s too good.

In particular, giving a high title to a barbarian – despised even by the common people – was a burden even for the lord himself.

Knowing that Elio would not be able to exercise the rights given to him, he could not irresponsibly increase his title.

It’s not good for him either.

This is because the higher the rank, the greater the force of check.

Even if you don’t, you’re from a savage, so you’ll have a lot of trouble, but if you’re surrounded by political enemies, you don’t know what kind of accident you’ll get into.

‘It would be better to start with the baron and create his own position.’

After organizing his thoughts, Marquis Bernardo spoke to Elio.

“To be honest, if you have swordsmanship like you, it’s not impossible to do it myself.”

In an instant, he knew that he would receive the title of baron.

Marquis Bernardo looked at him and continued talking.

“But now, when you become a Viscount, you will face many challenges both internally and externally. I think you know why, even if you don’t tell me.”

“yes.”

He nodded his head in suspense.

Just by looking at the Amber I met at the clinic, I could see how wild people are treated in this world.

“You’d better start as a baron and work your way up. I don’t feel comfortable saying this, but I’m just saying that I think it’s for the best.”

“I will ask you one question.”

“Something?”

“Can a baron challenge a count and a viscount to a duel?”

“Tell me why you want to know that.”

Marquis Bernardo’s eyes slightly changed.

No matter how good Elio’s swordsmanship is, if he has a rebellious temperament that rejects aristocratic society, he must be discarded.

He honestly explained what happened between Count Putokoa and himself while in the treatment center.

“...For refusing to return, they exterminated the ‘mountain tribe’ and cut off their ears and sent them to me. You can grab a sword and run into Count Putocoa, but I’m asking because I want to take revenge in the name of Justia, the goddess of justice.”

“Hmm!”

A quiet voice flowed from Marquis Bernardo’s mouth.

It was clear that Tobias Putocoa, the eldest son of Count Putocoa, had done it.

Considering his 18-year-old age, he was full of energy, but it was understandable on the one hand.

It was because he took out his anger on the innocent tribe of the barbarians for what he had decided as a marquis.

Then, it was clear that his political opponents would rant, saying, ‘The Marquis’ useless greed provoked foolish Tobias Putokoa’.

Marquis Bernardo looked closely at Elio.

The Marquis’ expression was heavy, but not cold.

It was because he was relieved that Elio’s anger was directed at Count Putocoa, not the aristocratic society.

“Legally, a request for a duel against an aristocrat is possible even if he is ordained a knight.”

Before long, Marquis Bernardo snapped his finger.

“closely.”

Yeonjeokha, who was three or four paces behind, approached the Marquis.

Marquis Bernardo said after receiving the sword back.

“Get down on one knee.”

After doing as the younger brother ordered, Marquis Bernardo took a deep breath.

“I ask in the name of Mana Phras, the Immaculate and Holy Creator. The Marquis Bernardo sees only justice as the duty of a knight. Helio, will you swear to serve me, Marquis Bernardo, as your lord and live a righteous life?”

“I swear.”

“With the authority given to me by the Kingdom of Escatos, I appoint you Elio as a knight. May the protection of the righteous Goddess Justia come upon you.”

The Marquis lightly tapped Yeonjeokha’s right shoulder with the blade of his sword.

“You can get up now.”

Yeon Jeok-ha, who stood up from his seat at the words of the Marquis, asked.

“Am I a baron now?”

“Foot! can it be The title of baron can only be bestowed by His Highness Escatos IV. I’ll ask His Highness for your favour, so wait.”

“Is there anything else I can do?”

“Originally, there are still procedures left to confirm the identity, but since the ‘mountain tribe’ has been annihilated... it can be easily finished with me being a witness. In the meantime, you should work on your major in my unit.”

“yes. What can I do?”

“Since you became a knight, you are a semi-nobleman. But since you haven’t received your title yet, stay with the second lieutenants. When I receive the salary, I will appoint you as a lieutenant then.”

“Ah...”

After that, no one spoke to Yeonjeokha.

I lay down on an empty cot for a long time.

Anyway, even when I was running across the river, the people around me knew it and avoided it, so I wasn’t particularly offended.

When Yeonjeokha laid down carefreely, the knights were rather taken aback.

All of them glanced at the savage knight, but they didn’t bother to argue.

This is because if knights fight with each other and are taken by nobles, it will be difficult for them to work.

But not everyone is like that.

Fabian, a 23-year-old knight who had awakened mana as a boy and heard the sound of genius, jumped up from his seat.

Like most conspiracy theorists, he believed that ‘savages extort energy like demons’.

He approached Elio with a frown and kicked the cot with his toe.

As his body shook, Yeon Jeok-ha opened his eyes.

A handsome boy, like a woman dressed as a man, was looking down with his eyes widening unsuitably.

“Find another man. I am not interested in men.”

‘Clutton’s Genius Knight’ Fabian exploded at the barbarian’s ridicule that the fart guy was angry.

“Wake up. I need to see if you deserve to stay in the knights’ quarters.”

“You’re braver than you look to question the Marquis’ decision.”

“It’s not a doubt, it’s a voice to prove yourself. Shouldn’t you fight together only when you know if you are a knight you can entrust your back to?”

“Hey, hey, hey, you don’t even have to do sodomy, so why leave your back?”

“What crazy! Don’t think of passing it off as a pun, get up!”

“Nope? Why should I obey you? If you are dissatisfied with the accommodation assignment, go to the Marquis and ask.”

It was true, so Fabian couldn’t refute for a second.

However, he could not just resign after being ridiculed by the barbarians.

“Are all the ‘mountain tribes’ cowards like you?”

When a young knight with a rivalry mentioned the ‘mountain tribe’ that was annihilated because of him, he slowly raised his upper body.

Fabian took a step back and looked at Elio.

He was skinny for a knight and didn’t seem to have anything special about him.

Besides, there was not even a sword that a knight should not separate from his body.

“Don’t you have any weapons?”

“...”

I looked around with a shy face.

Come to think of it, among the knights, he was the only one who didn’t have a sword.

It seems like we should seriously think about armaments.

He slid his hand under the cot that had been lowered to the floor.

It was just a gimmick, but he summoned the Thunder Sword.

Took.

I felt the cold touch of the Cheondun Sword on my palm.

He gradually increased the size of the small Cheondun Sword to match the heavy swords of other knights.

The appearance of the sword of heaven was also modified to resemble the sword of Marquis Bernardo that he had used earlier.

When I finally thought it was done, I slowly pulled it out.

A one-piece sword appeared from the blade to the handle.

Fabian couldn’t hide his embarrassment when Elio took out a sword he had never seen before from under the bed.

‘What is that? I’ve never seen anything put under the bed.’

Besides, what knight in the world would keep a sword like his face under his bed!

Fabian, who was tilting his head, couldn’t contain his curiosity and asked.

“Is that your sword?”

“uh. why? Got a problem?”

“does not exist. come out.”

Fabian, who had nothing to say in response, hurried out of the tent.

Cale asked Ridley right after the two of them left the tent.

“Was Ridley Elio armed?”

“I do not know. I didn’t look carefully...”

Ridley trailed off.

I was relaxing because it was a lodging, and I couldn’t think of anything else because I was focused on being a savage.

Cale tapped Ridley on the shoulder and said as he passed.

“That’s right. Even a wizard wouldn’t be able to do something like that. Let’s watch Fabian’s swordplay after a long time.”
