Chapter 121

Father

Although an engagement ceremony held in the North that is the frontier among frontiers, that invitation list was gorgeous.

Ridiculously among them there was not one who truly congratulates the engagement ceremony.

The 3rd Imperial Prince came to prepare the pretext of war with the kingdom alliance—.

The kingdom alliance or the mages of the magic tower came to take Galahad.

Although mostly guys who want the engagement ceremony to go awry with each different purpose, among them the best······.

‘It is the imperial princess.’

Galahad looked at the front and furrowed his eyes.

The imperial princess was in a state of wearing a dress again whether took out from somewhere. How many did one bring. Galahad suddenly became curious.

“Long time. The face is good.”

“Yes, the imperial princess is also still beautiful.”

“I am always the best. Because imperial family.”

The ends of the imperial princess’s eyes slightly went down and rose again. Galahad clicked his tongue softly.

“The marriage was refused in the kingdom alliance.”

“Heard. It was because the kingdom alliance is noisy.”

“Is that so? The guys there also not particularly different.”

“Anywhere all similar.”

“The North too?”

“Here because the Grand Duke is quite solid it is a bit fine.”

“Is that so? Would be good to live.”

Galahad’s eyes briefly furrowed.

“Because cold the skin would be damaged.”

“Adrianne’s skin did not have even a small blemish.”

“That side the circumstances are different.”

“Is that so. Recently I also diligently held the sword.”

The imperial princess’s words were unexpected. That the imperial princess held the sword was just to live as imperial family. Now that survived no need to particularly hold the sword.

It seemed the losing to Adrianne acted.

‘No matter how imperial family Adrianne would not become.’

Galahad turned his head.

There a middle-aged man was sitting. It was a man who looked like an eagle, yet despite the age firmness was felt.

‘The Amberutan Count.’

It was the father of this body. The relationship was not good. No, it was correct to see as bad.

Knights usually thought mages as degree of workers. Although use the magic tools mages made, did not acknowledge mages.

The Amberutan Count family was a prestigious knight family. Actually to the extent of steadily producing imperial knights, that pride needed no words.

The eldest son inherits the title and the remaining children becoming knights was general.

Galahad was the first mage of the Amberutan family.

It was an indescribable insult to the Amberutan Count family.

Galahad was a fate worse than being cut from the family register.

If there is a killing list in the family Galahad would be at the very top of that.

Such an Amberutan Count coming to Galahad’s engagement ceremony—.

‘What act did.’

“Does my gift suit the heart?”

The imperial princess asked while crossing her legs.

Tying a ribbon on a person and a gift—. truly an imperial princess-like step.

Although no sense, had no choice but to acknowledge.

The imperial princess’s gift suited Galahad’s heart.

Galahad stared at the Amberutan Count instead of answering.

“Is the 4th Imperial Prince doing well?”

The Amberutan Count glared at Galahad. Soon the Amberutan Count answered in a voice pressed with a kkuk kkuk.

“Does that person seem would tolerate this?”

The Amberutan Count’s eyes were savage. No matter how looking well it was not eyes looking at a child.

There was no particular dissatisfaction. Because Galahad also was not eyes looking at a father.

“What again cannot tolerate. Saying will come to the child’s wedding.”

“You······.”

The Amberutan Count hurriedly closed his mouth. And looked at the imperial princess’s mood.

It was the Amberutan Count who always made harsh sounds when looking at Galahad. Such an Amberutan Count so docile—.

“Father is without manners.”

The Amberutan Count opened his eyes wide. Those wrinkles trembled with a pareureu—. Galahad clicked his tongue softly.

“I will remove the 3rd Imperial Prince.”

The Amberutan Count’s expression changed. Astonishment fully rose on that face.

“What words are you making now. Don’t you know how serious a crime the crime of killing imperial family is!”

“I know. If I kill the 3rd Imperial Prince, of course the Amberutan Count family and all related blood would dry. Not three generations but the whole—. correct?”

At Galahad’s monotonous question the Amberutan Count trembled his body with a budeul budeul.

What the Amberutan Count values more than one’s life was the family. Because heard the story that that family disappears whole, it was natural to react intensely.

“The 3rd Imperial Prince is a sword master! A figure who rose to the peak of knights, how will a trivial mage like you kill!”

“Oh my, Father’s habit—.”

At the voice mixed with laughter of the imperial princess the Amberutan Count’s eyes became large as if tearing.

“Fine.”

Galahad stopped the imperial princess.

“Killing the 3rd Imperial Prince is difficult, but not impossible. The problem is after that. I also still have affection for the family—.”

“Daring do not put the family in that mouth! Damn guy!”

“Oh my, Father. Really won’t do.”

The imperial princess thickly laughed. The Amberutan Count trembled with a badeul badeul. Galahad exhaled a sigh and pushed the imperial princess back.

Galahad took out a small box from inside. Opening that, there was a finger wearing a ring.

“This is evidence that the 3rd Imperial Prince killed the prince of the kingdom alliance. If the 4th Imperial Prince one would be able to use usefully.”

The Amberutan Count’s eyes sharpened. Soon whether recognized that ring softly sighed.

“Can one prove?”

“The twilight mage can prove.”

“Even if proof is possible it is not degree of collapsing the 3rd Imperial Prince.”

“Would be so, still.”

The Amberutan Count narrowly opened his eyes.

“The 3rd Imperial Prince will declare war simultaneously to the Grand Duke and the kingdom alliance in the North.”

Galahad indifferently said. Exactly as if saying a fact that already occurred—.

The Amberutan Count made a fake laugh. It was clear mockery.

“Heo, even the 3rd Imperial Prince who is blind on blood there is no way doing such a stupid act.”

“Is that so?”

The Amberutan Count furrowed his eyes instead of answering. The Amberutan Count was a court count. If said this degree would have understood.

“Father, have to answer?”

The Amberutan Count who was startled nodded.

“So—.”

Galahad turned the gaze to the imperial princess.

“Why did that side come?”

“Wanted to see.”

“Don’t bullshit.”

The imperial princess’s laughter stopped. The Amberutan Count looked at Galahad with eyes as if crazy.

“I did not want to live.”

The imperial princess scanned her own lips with long fingers.

“Yet you saved me. So you—.”

The imperial princess’s finger pointed at Galahad.

“Have to take responsibility for me.”

The imperial princess’s voice was firm without even a small gap. Although a very shameless logic of taking responsibility because saved, the imperial princess was confident.

‘Firmly bitten.’

Galahad lowly exhaled breath.

“So?”

“I also want to do.”

“What.”

“The engagement ceremony.”

“Bullshit.”

The imperial princess’s voice was serious. Galahad’s head became complicated without end.

“Your father also agreed. Father?”

The Amberutan Count hurriedly nodded.

“Sorry but, in the North adultery is death penalty. Impossible.”

At Galahad’s answer the imperial princess tilted her head.

The imperial princess as if really not knowing—.

“If doing together isn’t it not adultery?”

Seriously asked.

Galahad’s face furrowed. What rose on Galahad’s face was clear disgust. Conversely the imperial princess laughed.

“It is a joke.”

The imperial princess indifferently said.

Tok tok.

“His Highness the Grand Duke says everyone gather.”

The soldier’s voice was heard from outside. Galahad stood without lingering.

The imperial princess caught the turned Galahad.

“How can one return to before? Even if I become the emperor—.”

At the still imperial princess Galahad desperately swallowed the rising curse.

“Do you remember my team members’ names?”

“Do not know. No interest.”

“Would be so, so impossible.”

Galahad left the seat without lingering.

“······Really cannot remember.”

The imperial princess laughed out loud.

*

‘Gathered a lot.’

Galahad flicked his finger and looked around the hall.

The largest scale was the 3rd Imperial Prince side. The 3rd Imperial Prince who accompanied a lot of imperial knights leisurely sipped the glass. Red liquid was full in the glass.

The 3rd Imperial Prince’s gaze was stuck on one side. There was the kingdom alliance, Farhansta.

Around Farhansta there were knights of the kingdom alliance, that number was not inferior to the 3rd Imperial Prince. The problem was not the number of knights. It was that quality.

Although elite knights selected in the kingdom alliance, had no choice but to be insufficient to compare with imperial knights.

Because imperial knights were the elite among elite.

Between such two camps there were noisy old men. They were mages of the magic tower.

“This! Blood continuously flowing! Is this the North’s method!”

“If eating like this good for stamina!”

“Oh oh—, a truly amazing method!”

The old men noisily chattered. That noisiness somewhat alleviated the tension in the hall.

The imperial princess and the Amberutan Count entered late. The imperial princess widely laughed and sat in the seat. Galahad ignored that gaze.

“Fine?”

Adrianne asked in an indifferent voice. Adrianne was in a lighter armor attire than usual.

Of course, that it is armor was the same, but thin and light compared to the usual thick armor.

Galahad rather countered to Adrianne.

“You, the expression is not good.”

“Because not familiar with such a seat.”

Adrianne lightly shook her head. At that Galahad softly laughed.

“Where is one familiar with such a seat.”

“Captain Galahad seems familiar though.”

“No way familiar. Pretending leisurely.”

“Pretending leisurely······.”

“Leisure is a weapon. Even in a situation driven to a dead end if showing leisure, the opponent’s head becomes complicated.”

“Ah—. understood.”

Adrianne seriously nodded. Then slightly leaned the back. Although a very fine difference, because Adrianne’s usual posture was quite upright one could know.

“It was not saying lean the back though.”

“······I know.”

Adrianne’s eyes greatly shook. As expected an excellent knight.

Then, one side became noisy. Turning the head the 3rd Imperial Prince heading to Farhansta was seen. Farhansta’s beard trembled with a badeul badeul.

“Long time. Farhansta.”

The 3rd Imperial Prince looked down at Farhansta and twisted the corners of his mouth.

“Heard the story that the prince died. Poisoning? Just the imperial princess is here.”

The 3rd Imperial Prince’s gaze turned to the side. There was the imperial princess. Farhansta followed and looked at the imperial princess.

It was an obvious trick. Farhansta was not loose to the extent of falling for such a move. It was an old king.

“Is the rumor fact?”

Farhansta asked while looking at the imperial princess and trembling the beard with a badeul badeul. It would not be acting. Because the 3rd Imperial Prince was right in front.

“I did not kill. Because I have good memory it is certain.”

The imperial princess answered without even moving one eye.

“Then would one say oneself killed?”

The 3rd Imperial Prince mocked. At that Farhansta chewed his lips. Farhansta’s gaze headed to Galahad.

Galahad lightly shook his head. Not yet.

The 3rd Imperial Prince looked at Galahad. That Farhansta looked at Galahad was a fleeting moment, yet caught that.

‘Sharp.’

The 3rd Imperial Prince approached Galahad. There was no blockage in that step.

“Was it the 4th Imperial Prince side?”

The 3rd Imperial Prince’s question was quite reasonable.

The Amberutan Count who is Galahad’s father was a 4th Imperial Prince side figure. Because the 4th Imperial Prince claimed alliance with the kingdom alliance, it was sufficient to see Galahad as a 4th Imperial Prince side figure.

“Did not know there would be such a figure to that coward. Good, enter under me.”

The 3rd Imperial Prince refreshingly proposed. No, originally if liking the heart it was a figure who places even a butcher under.

That there is a no good mage who handles fire under the 3rd Imperial Prince was that evidence.

Even so saying enter under oneself to the Grand Duke’s son-in-law—.

‘This also not bad.’

At a new option Galahad seriously pondered.

“······?”

Adrianne’s eyebrows shook.

Then, as the door roughly opened, the Grand Duke entered. The Grand Duke drew all concentration with just appearance.

The 3rd Imperial Prince returned to the seat.

The Grand Duke looked around the gathered people. Because that size was quite large it naturally became a form of looking down.

All elements that would cause problems gathered. Curious what words the Grand Duke would say gathering all such ones.

In front of the sparks that move—.

“Will hold the eve festival.”

Even poured oil.

“Until the engagement ceremony tomorrow.”

The corners of the mouths of the gathered ones rose.

Except one—.

‘What armor should one wear at the eve festival.’

Adrianne’s eyebrows shook.

*

‘Eve festival.’

Whether prepared in advance, gorgeous lights were seen as soon as coming out.

The rotten straw in places burned. In front of the fierce flames people excitedly laughed and danced.

‘From the beginning there was nothing to prepare.’

It was just a more active North than usual. Drum sounds were heard in places. Shouts burst.

The Grand Duke did not solve the problem.

Rather made more noisy.

‘Saying do on your own.’

Galahad raised the corners of his mouth.

The Grand Duke gave opportunity as always.

“The finances are not good, yet the eve festival—. not right.”

Adrianne grumbled in an indifferent voice.

“Isn’t it the engagement ceremony of you the frozen flower and hero of the North and me the rising hero of the North. Enough to hold the eve festival.”

“Saying that with one’s mouth, truly amazing.”

Adrianne purely admired.

Galahad smiled bitterly and turned the gaze.

“The North’s festival interesting.”

Adrianne looked up at Galahad. Those clear blue pupils were a little bent.

“Ah, would not know the North’s festival well.”

“Seems knowing one though.”

Galahad pointed below. Men who attached fire to the body were in the middle of running around.

Thought whether the North-style burning, yet the men were laughing.

“That is fire bath. Good for overcoming the cold.”

“Hmm, the cold would unconditionally lose.”

“Besides the fire bath there are many things to enjoy. Fire duel, breaking the head with eyes closed, avoiding the axe, catching magic beasts with bare hands etc—.”

All fierce names. The risen Adrianne’s eyebrows continuously shook.

‘Fully excited.’

Grumbled yet inside seemed liking the eve festival.

“Just hearing the name seems fun.”

“Ah, is that so. Then shall I inform? The most popular is as expected, catching magic beasts with bare hands. I have the record.”

Adrianne raised her chin. Hmm, Galahad softly let out a groan.

“That would be fun. I also catch magic beasts well though.”

“Although knowing Captain Galahad is excellent, breaking my record would not be easy.”

Adrianne said while raising her head. Those blue pupils were expanded. It seemed fully excited.

“Then shall I guide the eve festival?”

Adrianne held out her hand. Even though wore the gauntlet hesitated.

The moment trying to nod, at the end of the corridor the ugly guy and the blank guy were seen.

‘Came.’

Galahad’s eyes deepened.

“Sorry but, because busy will go first. See at the engagement ceremony tomorrow.”

Galahad fixed the collar and moved steps.

Adrianne left alone looked at the held out hand for a long time.

‘As expected first, was avoiding the axe better?’

Adrianne seriously pondered.

*

“Said until the sun rises.”

“Yes! Correct!”

James hurriedly followed Galahad and answered.

How long Galahad’s legs that step was with a seongkeum seongkeum.

“No plan? Seems Effort came. A bothersome guy came. Total how many?”

“Around forty!”

“Forty. Called a lot.”

Galahad’s voice was leisurely. Galahad put the cigarette in his mouth.

At the lemon scent James and Handsome swallowed saliva without knowing.

“Is it troop mobilization?”

Handsome asked in a firm voice.

The inspection room was called with fierce names like agent processor, cleaner etc. Because sent over forty personnel from such an inspection room, one had to mobilize troops right now.

Galahad lightly shook his head.

“Enough, three is sufficient.”

“······Yes?”

Handsome and James simultaneously countered.

Galahad looking at those stupid faces flicked both fingers.

From the shadow behind red blood fully splashed. Ulkeok—. an agent wearing conquest jumped out from the shadow.

Although a thick ice awl stuck in the shoulder the agent’s expression was indifferent.

The aura stored in the agent’s sword rose. The aura of the inspection room agent where secrecy is important was refined.

‘Quite.’

Galahad flicked his finger again. Although a quite agent, not degree of blocking the ice awl that pierces space.

The ice awl pierced the agent’s neck. Even in the meantime the agent aimed at Galahad.

The sword brushed in front of Galahad.

That was all.

Galahad lightly tapped the cigarette in the mouth.

Lemon scent pushed the fishy blood smell.

What—. James blinked his eyes.

That infamous inspection room agent—.

‘Ended with flicking the finger a few times?’

Even blood did not stick on the clothes.

Then, Galahad passed the front hair. There was a faint smile on that face.

Galahad looking at the two astonished—.

“Come, it is time to become a legend.”

Raised the corners of his mouth.

James and Handsome once nodded.
