Chapter 235

Episode 235:

Peace has come to the South.

A long war that lasted for decades has come to an end.

The barbarians were defeated in the war, and things went on peacefully in the South in a very good mood.

Daejeonsa kept his promise. There’s only one thing they want.

A steady battle.

The people of Easton did not refuse the duel.

Rather, it ignited his desire to win.

No matter how much they won the war, they had a lot to lose from the barbarians.

I was not satisfied with everything because I had won the war.

In the first place, they were not happy that the great warrior had taken the barbarians.

They wanted to repay the ancient people for what they had suffered from the barbarians.

But now that I can’t do that, it’s even weirder that I don’t have any complaints.

‘In that sense, in some ways, it may have been better that it turned out this way.’

The Easterners are the best hunters among barbarians.

Veterans who have analyzed and understood their habits, fighting methods, and everything else, and have studied ways to utilize them.

I couldn’t imagine them losing.

Unless they are crippled with a leg or an arm or spend all of their stamina elsewhere that day, there is little chance they will lose.

If you’re fighting one-on-one, you might not know it, but they are at the level of one-on-one and can win at the level above.

“Are you really going to follow me?”

“yes. I swore to follow you as your slave and servant. And even if that weren’t the case, I have no work to do here.”

Arjuna calmly nodded as I prepared to return.

If she goes with me, that’s fine with me.

Because the enormous power called Master was moved by my words.

But she had tribe members to take responsibility for.

She may have thought herself unfit to be a chieftain, but her tribemates did not.

The red hawks were following Arjuna knowingly or unknowingly.

You can tell just by looking at him as a member of the same unit that he faithfully carries out Arjuna’s orders.

But regardless, the Red Hawks wanted to remain in the South.

‘I said I didn’t want to come up right now.’

He said he wanted to strengthen his internal stability. And Easton will help you with that.

The fact that they said ‘immediately’ meant that they were coming from the South anyway.

‘It’s a knighthood made up of Auror users... That’s awesome.’

Not only was there no time for them to go, but Arjuna was the reason they wanted to leave the south.

It was clear that if Arjuna wanted to stay, they would not leave the South until she died.

But Arjuna said he would follow me and the red hawks said they needed time.

It was literally only a matter of time before I could properly embrace them.

“My benefactor. Although we may fall, we will bless your journey here.”

“If you need help, at any time, if it is a request from a benefactor, even if it is the afterlife, I will go and help you.”

The elves showed regret at me leaving the south.

The elder handed me a leaf.

Even though it had fallen from the tree, the fresh leaves were full of life as if they were still hanging on the tree.

I didn’t have to think long to know that it was a leaf of the World Tree.

It was only possible for the World Tree to be so full of vitality.

“You will be able to save your benefactor from danger at least once. And if you burn it, not only we but all the elves on the continent will come to help our benefactor.”

No, if there was something like this, why didn’t I use it a long time ago?

If you used this, you could get help from elves elsewhere.

He seemed to have read my thoughts and smiled slightly.

“It is possible because of my benefactor. How could we burn our mother’s body? “Even if we die, we can never do that.”

“Still, it is a disgrace to Easton not to give anything in return to its benefactor. “I can’t give you anything, but I can do one thing for you.”

What are you trying to do?

He looked at me and raised the corners of his mouth. And in front of everyone, under the gaze of the supply corps and Easton, I raised my voice so that everyone could hear.

“I, Wilton Easton, swear. I will become the strength of Raymond Millennium, who saved Easton’s friend and savior from danger. As long as he doesn’t go against the kingdom, I will risk everything to help him! This oath is the sacred oath of a knight. I swear with everything I have. “I, Easton, swear to the Aurors that I will be Raymond Millennium’s eternal ally!”

I couldn’t help but be surprised by his solemn declaration.

What he did was not something to be taken lightly.

As a knight, he never wanted to take the oath of an Auror, but only when choosing his master.

If the oath is broken, Mana destroys the Dantian of the person who broke the oath.

If a knight lost his dantian, it was no different from becoming a ruined person.

Even though I swore an oath that didn’t need to be sworn, no one here was surprised.

The people of Easton looked at it as if it was natural.

Bane put his hand on my shoulder as I was dazed, not knowing what on earth was happening.

“Congratulations. With this, you have gained the most reliable support.”

You knew it.

Well, I guess I wouldn’t have to do something like this alone.

But it was a bit too much not to give notice in advance.

Still, it didn’t feel that bad.

Rather, I was a little moved and happy.

As Bain said, I gained a strong foundation.

Although there was a halo called the Millennium, there were times when that alone was not enough.

Especially when dealing with marquis or dukes, and when dealing with royal family members, every move had to be careful.

But now there is no need for that.

It was based on the name Easton.

Easton’s weight is enormous.

They manage an entire region, and each and every one of their knights is a warrior of reversal.

The duke, the marquis, and even the king could not do anything wrong to the Marquess of Easton.

It was as if the people who had already been pressured by the name Millennium were no longer able to even talk to me.

Since Easton is as neutral as Millennium, the royal family will now long for my presence.

Because acquiring me was like gaining the power to overtake the current crown prince.

Millennium with the Magic Tower and Easton’s halo swallowing an area.

It is an object of desire that anyone can drool over.

‘If it was going to be like this, there was no need to send Daria to the empire.’

If I support her, the current power structure will be reversed.

Moreover, looking at the current situation, if I make a decision, even Bane, who is in neutral, may follow me if I do well.

Or maybe Selina can help.

‘Oh, Beatrice is there too.’

But she doesn’t have high expectations.

Because we haven’t gotten along very well yet.

Anyway, I had gained the power to change the power structure of the kingdom.

Well, anyway, it’s not a bad thing to have power in the empire.

Still, I was thrilled because it was an achievement that exceeded my expectations.

I was happy enough just to step on the stairs leading to the master, but this...

‘It’s so good.’

The steps on the way back seem very light.

“Okay then let’s go.”

It was time for the water to slowly subside.

One of the reasons the supply party couldn’t come down was because there was a river on the way to the south, and most of it was swollen.

Still, this time we had some magical help, but we were able to go back as the water was starting to recede.

It moves.

Unlike when we came, on the way back, the luggage was simpler and the number of people increased.
