Chapter 54

I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 54

#When I returned, the family was ruined (55)

After the outer gate was opened.

Sylvia approached.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“What trouble? “I haven’t even entered the main game yet.”

The Viscount’s main force will remain in the castle. Considering that, the Viscounty Territory was not completely occupied yet.

Main forces were usually placed in the inner castle rather than the outer castle.

Sylvia said after seeing Ethan.

“Recently, rumors about the Archduke have been spreading throughout the duchy.”

“rumor?”

“yes. There are many stories saying that the reason the Grand Duke took up the sword not long after he woke up was because he could not bear to see the cruel exploitation of his subordinates.”

That wasn’t the only rumor that came out of Sylvia’s mouth.

He even added that it was full of rumors that the territory he personally occupied was truly like a duchy of the past and had become a dream-like paradise that anyone would want to live in.

After speaking up to that point, Sylvia looked at Ethan.

“Why not try using this? “Here’s the plan.”

She told him her plan and Ethan readily agreed to it.

Even if it was a slightly slower process than just striking it down, implementing this plan had the advantage of being able to secure public sentiment.

‘There is nothing more important than public sentiment.’

In particular, there was no element like this when it came to fighting for a cause.

If there was something that all the people desperately wanted, even the king of a country could not just ignore it.

Fight with collaterals.

In that fight, having a hold on public opinion would be a huge advantage over time.

“Let’s go. “I have already prepared it.”

I started moving towards the center of the outer castle with Lawrence.

Marcus.

He was one of the executives of the Blue Scorpion, one of the groups formerly called the Eight Gates of Darkness in Kargath.

Now, he and the Blue Scorpions have been out in the main street of Demorian since the morning breeze.

The reason was simple.

It was because their leader, the tactician, gave an order./ While they were waiting endlessly in the main street.

Someone came running toward Marcus in a huff.

-success. External surname. Neutralize.

He delivered the news in very simple phrases and disappeared along the street.

“Big!”

Marcus cleared his throat and screamed loudly.

“Everyone heard the news!”

A deep voice. Add to that his grim face with a beard and his large stature, and the eyes of city residents passing by on the main street flocked to him.

“The Archduke has finally marched into Viscounty Dekun! Viscount Lorcan! “The descendant of a great hero, unable to bear the tyranny of that vicious nobleman, has finally drawn his sword!”

Loud!

The eyes of the city residents began to sparkle. These were people living well in their own way in the Viscounty Territory.

Of course, the concept of being well-off meant that it was compared to the common people who were starving to death everywhere.

The people of small villages and city dwellers alike were sick of exploitation. Everyone just couldn’t express it openly.

For those city dwellers, the Archduke’s visit was literally like a welcome rain in a drought. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“According to the news that has come in, not only has the outer wall been taken over at once, but he will also be giving a speech for the residents of the Viscounty in the central square!”

gulp.

The city residents were suddenly concentrating on his every word. Marcus, who was looking around all the time, shouted loudly.

“Not everyone suffered from Viscount Lorcan’s tyranny! This is a time when our city residents must stand together! Let’s all go to the central square! “Let us help the Archduke, even if it is only with our weak strength!”

For a brief moment, the street fell silent. Marcus gave a glance in a very skillful manner. Then the wind catchers who had dug in between the streets began to shout loudly.

“That’s not wrong! “Isn’t it time for us to stand up when a hero like you comes?”

“I am going! “I can’t live in pain like this anymore!”

“Err! “I feel pity too!”

It was only a few words.

But the effect was quite dramatic.

Deep in my heart.

The grievances that had been hidden away began to flare up like an oil bottle had been thrown.

It was an amazing catalyst.

“okay! That person is right! How long will you suffer from that viscount’s exploitation! Let’s all go to the Archduke! “If you are the Grand Duke, you will definitely punish that viscount bastard!”

In an instant, an angry crowd began to flock towards the central square.

This wasn’t the only case here.

The medium-sized city of Demorian.

This is because informants spread to every corner of the city and began to incite people.

Before the Grand Duke even took office.

There were already countless angry crowds gathered in the central square.

Duke of Ardan.

While waiting endlessly for a descendant of a great heroic family to save them.

* * *

Ethan looked at the central square. A large number of local residents had already gathered there. The number alone was almost in the thousands.

Naturally, the square was so crowded that it was difficult for even a single person to move.

As if that wasn’t enough, when I saw that the streets spread out in all directions were filled to the brim, I almost couldn’t breathe.

‘You’ve collected a lot.’

My gaze immediately turned to Lawrence, who was sitting next to me.

I heard that an information group was created and utilized, and it seemed to be more useful than expected.

“Everyone is waiting for you, Grand Duke.”

“okay. “Let’s go.”

Ethan stood on the platform installed in the square.

Archduke.

As soon as they saw him, all the people fell to their knees. He was a hero who should be worshiped.

Everyone bowed their heads and was silent.

What kind of story did the hero’s descendants come to the central square to tell?

Soon, a manly voice echoed throughout the square.

“You may have heard about the duchy from your parents in the past.”

In the past, the duchy was a paradise-like space that residents from all over the continent dreamed of living in.

I’m sure I’ve heard such a story.

There were many people who actually experienced it.

It was definitely like that at least fifteen years ago. Ethan continued speaking calmly.

“It’s probably a story that the children of today’s generation have never seen or experienced.”

It was right.

The rich past has always given us a longing that cannot be quenched.

A paradise land of abundance ruled by a benevolent monarch.

If I could, I just wanted to go back to the past.

“The Viscount has committed many sins. Instead of sustaining the duchy, it only brought despair to you. That’s why I have no intention of forgiving him.”

The hall was filled with breathtaking silence. But it wasn’t just silence that was filled.

Because a strangely hot heat was slowly starting to rise.

“I will cut off the Viscount’s head and put everything back to how it was before. “It’s a past duchy that today’s children don’t remember.”

“…!”

Step by step.

Step by step.

The sound of footsteps gradually became distant. Only then did the residents of the territory begin to raise their heads one by one.

“Let’s go.”

Sreung!

It was the moment when the Archduke drew his great sword.

“Kick it!”

With the words of Knight Commander Menhatton, the forty-year-old knight drew his sword.

A knighthood with standards and theft.

The sight of the Archduke moving among them was literally like a painting. Heat filled the eyes of the residents of the territory.

It was right then.

“Oh my gosh, Grand Duke! I too am a citizen of the duchy! I will follow you, Grand Duke! Please take me with you!”

A deep voice rang out.

It was the moment when I came face to face with a face full of beards.

“I…I’m going too! Please just follow along! Even if I die, I will never hold a grudge!”

“Grand Duke! Please take us with you too!”

The residents of the territory began to speak out like a dam bursting.

Ethan, who saw them, nodded and said.

“It’s about finding out your future, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to check for yourself. Just don’t get too ahead of yourself.”

“yes!”

Everyone naturally began to follow him.

* * *

Not resistant.

The Viscount, who was there encouraging the soldiers and locking the castle gate, opened his eyes wide.

This is because a huge number of people could be seen coming from afar.

‘What…what?’

The Viscount was astonished.

Apparently, the only people the Archduke led were the Knights. There couldn’t have been thousands of knights.

So, is he a private soldier?

When I looked closely, I saw that wasn’t the case either.

The people who were following the Archduke like lambs were not armed at all.

‘Stand… no way!’

Are you talking about the citizens of the Viscounty Territory?

That’s right!

Those who lived in their own domains, paid taxes, and had obligations were flocking in like baby birds chasing after the archduke.

I was shocked.

‘What…what the heck!’

The Viscount was greatly shocked.

If anything, it was a long time ago.

The sense of betrayal and loss I felt now was much greater than when I heard that my wife was having an affair.

Loud!

The soldiers on top of the inner castle were greatly shaken. It wasn’t that difficult to figure out who they were. Thousands of people.

Among them, there were many who were very familiar with the soldiers.

“…mother?”

“Why on earth father?”

“Milia?”

family lovers friends.

These are people who can be included in all categories. The Viscount, seeing the agitated soldiers, shouted loudly.

“Strengthen the bowstring!”

“Pull it!”

The knights who heard the Viscount’s command shouted loudly. But no one drew the bow.

The person who leads the people of the territory from the front is the Archduke, who thinks he is a hero.

Behind them, people with familiar faces were flocking in.

How can you pull the bowstring in a situation like this?

It was that moment.

[Stop!]

A voice like thunder echoed loudly within me. It was like a god whose name was revealed only in folk tales.

“Hi!”

Soldiers appeared one after another, throwing bows from all directions. If the soldiers were feeling such extreme confusion.

The knights were different.

‘…what is this?’

The voice that rang inside me just now.

That voice contained tremendous power. Its power was so strong that even the Viscounty Commander-in-Chief could not downplay it.

While everyone’s faces hardened.

The Archduke approached the inner palace.

“viscount. Open the gates and receive punishment.”

“Dog…don’t talk bullshit! “How dare you accuse me of this!”

“Do you dare rebel against Ardan’s name?”

“…This guy who isn’t even the head of the family is full of mouths! What are you doing! “Hurry up and stop shooting arrows!”

The Viscount looked at the knights with an angry face.

“From now on, anyone who doesn’t listen to my orders will be beheaded!”

“Everyone lift your bow!”

“If you don’t lift up, I’ll cut your throat!”

“….”

While there were soldiers holding bows in fearful threats, there were also soldiers who were silent with their hands trembling.

“How dare you!”

Sreung!

This was when the knight with his sword drawn raised his arm wide.

Something flew towards him.

The speed was so fast that only the knight commander could barely figure out what it was.

That was a collection of energy filled with embodied mana.

‘…oh my god!’

The knight commander opened his eyes wide.

Beyond the tall castle walls.

What truly astonishing mana control is required to accurately fire a magic bullet at the knight above him!

The knight commander knew exactly.

bang!

“Aaaah!”

A projectile with extremely high speed.

The knight, who urgently raised his sword and blocked it, screamed.

Not only was the sword bent, but it contained so much force that it broke my wrist.

4 star knight.

Even in the inner city, everyone was silent at the screams of a knight with his own skills.

It was the same with other knights who threatened the soldiers.

“If you touch my people again, I will tear your body in half.”

While the knights trembled at the harsh voice.

Ethan jumped like lightning.

The body flew high into the sky like a free wind and landed on the castle wall without making a single noise.

The Archduke and Viscount Lorcan.

Their gazes met very naturally.

“It’s time to pay for your sins.”

Waves of fire began to flow over Ethan’s sword.
