Chapter 130

New Problem

“Really thinking of entering Magic Realm with the Special Mission Unit?”

Adrianne’s aide Runabirn asked in a low voice.

Adrianne nodded.

“Magic Realm is a place even direct unit members are hard. Even last Magic Realm time, didn’t a high-rank demon race appear. Going such a place with the Special Mission Unit is dangerous.”

Runabirn said in a firm voice.

Magic Realm was a dangerous place even to Adrianne’s direct unit. Going such Magic Realm with the Special Mission Unit newly established a little ago was quite dangerous.

It was a natural reaction. Because of that Adrianne also pondered.

However, Adrianne knew the Special Mission Unit are not easy ones.

Along with—.

“Captain Galahad goes together. Fine.”

Galahad caught the ruler who is a high-rank demon race. Although not Magic Realm and together with First, that force could be guaranteed.

“Hmm······ if Captain Galahad···.”

As Galahad’s name came out Runabirn muttered. A fed up look rose on Runabirn’s face.

Because showed everyone Galahad laughing and taking the ruler’s blood. After that bizarre rumors regarding Galahad circulated.

It was the story of drinking the demon race’s blood instead of water. Due to that avoided Galahad in another meaning.

“······Understood. Yet why is Captain Galahad going together?”

“Said will find clues regarding the demon race’s king.”

A moment of silence flowed. Runabirn’s face stiffened in an instant. The eyes always warm when looking at Adrianne cooled, and clear displeasure was revealed.

“There is no such as the demon race’s king. Daring making such bizarre sounds. That guy, not normal.”

Runabirn who was always on Adrianne’s side burst intense opposition.

That intense denial was rather the proof of existence.

Evidence that there really is the demon race’s king who presses all humans of the continent—.

Adrianne’s eyes shook. Fear regarding unknown oppression rose.

Adrianne nodded. Only then Runabirn’s face loosened.

“Will increase the number of the direct unit more than usual.”

Runabirn continued the words as if nothing happened.

At that Adrianne felt thick powerlessness.

‘Did he experience this for life.’

Being denied by everyone the existence of the scheduled destruction was a quite terrible experience.

Yet this for life—.

Then, the carriage stopped. The door opened, and Galahad leisurely laughed.

“Will you eat lunch together? Tom boiled stew though.”

That leisurely laughter was mysterious. How can one laugh.

Then—.

“Lady Adrianne!!”

A noisy sound was heard from one side. The laughter of Galahad who turned his head stopped.

“Seems a matter arose.”

Galahad slightly withdrew.

There was a soldier who became a mess.

“The 1st Battalion was raided!”

Adrianne’s eyebrows stiffened.

****

‘Raid.’

Galahad quietly tapped the cigarette.

The 1st Battalion was larger in scale than other battalions. About 1.5 times to maximum 2 times.

Along with that that armament degree and the quality of soldiers were more excellent than other units. From the beginning elite among the excellent North soldiers.

Such 1st Battalion’s atmosphere was fierce. Flames rose in places, and screams were heard.

No matter who sees it was an appearance of being raided.

“Heard there was a demon race’s attack at dawn.”

Gilbert reported while narrowly opening his eyes.

“This dawn?”

“Yes, heard demon races attacked the castle gate at dawn. A little crack occurred in the castle gate, and magic beasts and demon races entered between that.”

Gilbert pointed behind. Soldiers of a firm expression busily went around.

The castle gate seen last time was guarded in several layers. Such castle gate being pierced was not understood.

“Did not look like a castle gate that would collapse?”

“Heard a mental demon race appeared. A few soldiers around the castle gate were bewitched and ran wild and the door opened.”

Mental demon race—. Galahad’s eyes deepened. Was the mental demon race knocking the castle gate coincidence.

“Originally are there such raids often?”

“The demon race’s attack is periodically. Attack degree of the castle gate opening is after a long time. Yet Lady Adrianne was not there either···.”

Gilbert continued the report in a voice without laughter.

“There is a story that because Lady Adrianne left the seat long could not organize the demon race’s area. Although clean the demon race’s area even without Lady Adrianne, because the amount is different from when Lady Adrianne is there.”

Gilbert calmly explained. It was just conveying the heard story as is.

‘Because Adrianne left the seat.’

Galahad muttered that subtle sentence.

Adrianne originally headed to the demon race’s area every day. And cleaned the demon race.

Such Adrianne left the seat, so the demon race piled and attacked was a quite reasonable story.

However—.

“Attacking at dawn on the day Adrianne returns. The timing is quite coincidental.”

“Wouldn’t it be coincidence?”

“Could be coincidence. But—.”

Galahad deeply spit cigarette smoke. Gilbert seriously stared.

“I do not believe coincidence. Coincidence is the shield of ones without logic.”

“······Then is it that someone deliberately decorated?”

“Not knowing yet. If someone decorated there would be intention. For example in this case—.”

Galahad slightly turned his head. Adrianne was receiving reports between company commanders. The usual expressionless was shaking.

Clear guilt rose.

“Would be saying to Adrianne. Because you left this place, such a matter occurred. It is your responsibility.”

Using a very classic method. Galahad furrowed his eyes.

“Why is that Lady Adrianne’s fault?”

Gilbert asked as if really not knowing. Sincerity was full in that voice.

“Even Sir Gilbert knowing Adrianne does not know.”

Galahad laughed with a keul keul.

Why tried to bind Adrianne. What Adrianne originally was trying to do was important.

Adrianne—.

‘Was trying to enter Magic Realm with me.’

Binding such Adrianne—.

‘Blocking Adrianne from entering Magic Realm.’

Galahad’s eyes deepened.

That means, it was the story of having to enter Magic Realm with Adrianne as quickly as possible. However, there was a problem.

‘There is no way Adrianne goes right away.’

Adrianne would clearly feel guilt at the current situation. To move such Adrianne one had to solve the 1st Battalion’s problem.

‘If solving it would do.’

The conclusion was clear. If solving faster than the guys’ expectation it was a problem. Capability was Galahad’s major.

Galahad turned the gaze to Tom. Tom was in a state of finishing preparation at some point.

“Tom, prepare so can depart right away. Generously.”

“Yes, understood.”

Tom answered in a firm voice.

Galahad tapped the cigarette and moved steps. Gilbert hurriedly followed.

“The 1st Battalion is different from other battalions.”

“Different?”

“Yes, the 1st Battalion is a unit that turns centered on Lady Adrianne. Although there is also the reason His Highness the Grand Duke does not give orders from the beginning, it is a slightly different independent unit from other battalions.”

“You have the talent of explaining easy words difficultly. So isn’t it a mannerless unit.”

Gilbert could not hold and laughed. Following Gilbert deeply exhaled a sigh.

“So if only related to Lady Adrianne the eyes go crazy.”

“Because I am Adrianne’s fiancé got disliked, so have to be careful with actions?”

“Correct.”

“Hmm, I see. Would be difficult.”

Galahad lightly nodded and headed to Adrianne. Gilbert exhaled a low sigh and followed.

“Adrianne.”

The company commanders’ heads turned in an instant. The company commanders who saw Galahad’s eye light became savage.

Galahad stared at Adrianne. Adrianne’s furrowed eyebrows quite bothered.

“Yes, Captain Galahad.”

“Will depart right away?”

“Sorry. A problem arose in the battalion. Seems have to solve this side first.”

Adrianne seriously apologized. At that Galahad openly clicked his tongue.

It was the expected reaction.

“You-like. I will solve right away, so prepare to depart.”

Galahad said in a calm voice. How calm the voice, to the extent that arrogant content hearing blandly.

“What does a guy of another unit know and meddle!”

One among the knights raised his voice. Although slightly withdrew at Adrianne’s gaze, that sharp momentum was still the same.

“Seems knowing more than you whose castle gate was pierced.”

Galahad calmly provoked.

The company commanders’ momentum sharpened. It became an atmosphere that seemed would burst right now.

‘Scratching people is the best.’

Gilbert exhaled a sigh and held the sword hilt and stood beside Galahad.

Then, Adrianne bowed her head first.

“Understood. Thank you for helping.”

Adrianne bowing her head—. the atmosphere sharpened more. To the extent not strange even if bursting.

In that tense tension Galahad—.

“Fine. We are now an engaged relationship. Your unit is no different from my unit. Depart before the sun sets.”

Very refreshingly committed.

On the fully furrowed faces of the company commanders—.

‘Refreshingly though.’

Gilbert laughed with a heuheo and held the sword hilt.

****

‘Really going crazy.’

The knight belonging to Adrianne’s direct unit, Carrot scratched his forehead with a bak bak.

It was because of the leisurely handsome guy in front, Galahad.

Galahad whose recognition is not good in the 1st Battalion anyway. As if that was insufficient, Galahad suddenly declared would find the hole of the 1st Battalion.

At that Adrianne attached Carrot the knight of the direct unit. Thanks to that Carrot had to receive the glares of other knights.

“Let’s go from the castle gate.”

“Yes, this side.”

Carrot quickly nodded. Although Adrianne’s order, the opponent was Captain Galahad.

That Galahad very famous in the North—. now not an opponent one can ignore.

Galahad walked with a seongkeum seongkeum. Because that stride is quite large Carrot had to move as if running.

Although sharp gazes followed every place going, Galahad rather even waved his hand.

“This quite a mess.”

Galahad who arrived at the castle gate calmly said.

The castle gate was still in a state of not being cleaned up. Around was full of blood and flesh pieces, and corpses were also scattered. Traces of a miserable combat were full.

Even so—.

‘Do have to say outside?’

At the stinging gaze felt from around Carrot softly screamed.

“Mental. Too thick though.”

Then, soldiers blocked in front of Galahad. Galahad looked back at Carrot. Carrot exhaled a low sigh and stepped forward.

“Received Lady Adrianne’s permission. In the middle of performing His Highness the Grand Duke’s order. Get out of the way.”

As spitting two thick names, the soldiers furrowed their faces and withdrew.

“Thank you.”

Galahad passed while tapping the soldiers’ shoulders.

The castle gate was more a mess. Thick iron was bent, and terrible flesh pieces were here and there.

As Galahad tried to examine those traces, a huge knight blocked. It was the gatekeeper Erdall.

“Cannot approach more.”

“Received Adrianne’s permission, and in the middle of performing His Highness the Grand Duke’s order though.”

Galahad leisurely said. However, that opponent was not good.

“The one permitted passage is only Adrianne.”

Galahad looked back at Carrot.

“Cannot help. Because the gatekeeper knight Erdall is a truly upright figure.”

“An upright figure. A nature matching a gatekeeper. Looking so, also a gatekeeper award. Hey Erdall, how long has it been guarding the gate?”

“Over twenty years.”

Erdall answered in a thick voice.

“Oh, amazing. Guarding the castle gate over twenty years. Was there no uncomfortable point?”

“None.”

“It is a calling. Finding a matching job early is a blessing. Were you also guarding the castle gate at the raid time?”

“The gatekeeper does not leave the castle gate.”

“Answering long. Yes, will you tell the situation at the time a bit?”

Erdall largely nodded.

“It was the same as usual. Was guarding the door, yet someone pierced from behind.”

Erdall pointed beside. One corpse was prostrated in the corner of the castle gate. Because stepped here and there the form was terrible.

“It is a soldier of the squad guarding the door.”

“I see, originally the relationship was bad?”

“No, was a good side.”

“Certain?”

“Yes. Because sometimes drank alcohol too.”

Erdall’s voice was upright. At that Galahad lightly nodded.

“I see. How did the castle gate open? Looked complicated.”

“Used cattle. Although could not open the whole, could open the heavy castle gate.”

Galahad flicked his finger with a tok tok.

“I see. Thank you for answering diligently.”

“You are welcome.”

“Ah. Can I ask one more?”

Erdall firmly nodded. At that Galahad lightly asked as if nothing.

“Why did you open the door at this dawn?”

Erdall’s movement stopped with a ttuk.

‘What is that—.’

Erdall was one called a born gatekeeper with that upright nature. It was a figure who would not open the door even if a knife enters the neck.

Such Erdall opened the door—.

What dog sound is this.

“Answer. Because I am a bit busy.”

Galahad pointed at Erdall with his finger. Although nothing in the hand, coolness rose.

‘Suddenly what is this······.’

Then—.

“Do not insult me.”

“This, not remembering.”

“I—.”

“Sir Gilbert, make kneel.”

Gilbert moved right away. Gilbert’s sword tapped Erdall.

Carrot knew Gilbert’s skill. That Gilbert is an excellent knight there was no room for disagreement.

Yet Gilbert’s sword was much longer than when seen before.

No, precisely speaking—.

‘Became a bit sharper.’

Erdall was a gatekeeper. A gatekeeper could not be done by anyone. Upright nature was basic, and excellent skill was essential.

Gilbert lightly suppressed such Erdall.

‘This degree would not have been.’

Carrot’s eyes became large.

“What act doing!!”

Then, a scolding was heard from behind. Knights and soldiers who were cleaning the surroundings drew swords. The atmosphere sharpened in an instant.

It was a situation where the blade is set from the dawn combat. There Galahad who forcibly pushed in even suppressed the gatekeeper, no need to say more.

Surrounded in an instant.

At the sharp swords spread all around Carrot’s mind became dizzy.

“Catch well Sir Gilbert.”

“Yes, stay still!”

Yet the two seemed not seeing the surrounding situation.

At that the surround approached with a seongkeum.

Then, Galahad placed his hand on Erdall’s head. At the appearance exactly as if even beheading the pressure became even fiercer.

‘Must not touch Galahad.’

Carrot muttered a curse and stepped forward.

“In the middle of performing His Highness the Grand Duke’s order! What Lady Adrianne permitted! All step back!”

As shouting confidently the ones surrounding briefly stopped.

A low scream burst from behind. At that Carrot who slightly looked back could not hold the curse.

Erdall’s eyes were flipped. That body trembled with a badeul badeul. It was a terrible appearance.

“Said permitted that?”

At the edged question Carrot swallowed saliva with a kkeulkeok.

Then—.

“Uncivilized humans! Quietly be eaten!”

A terrible scolding burst from Erdall’s mouth.

The eyes of the ones surrounding became sealreuk. Although Carrot who was blocking them is also bewildered, how would they be.

‘Really Erdall got hit by a demon race?’

Heavy silence descended.

“Seems a mental demon race entered.”

Galahad said while lightly shaking his hand.

The intrusion of a mental demon race was not a light matter. It was a mental demon race that collapses a squad without traces.

To find a mental demon race one had to interrogate each one, yet not that one can find either.

Now everyone had no choice but to suspect each other.

In heavy silence and astonishment—.

“Finding a demon race—. would be fun.”

Galahad alone laughed.

*

“Really can find the mental demon race? Although the number of related ones would be considerable.”

Gilbert asked a little worriedly.

Finding a mental demon race among these numerous people before the sun sets was close to impossible.

Of course, because Galahad there would be a thought, but time was too tight.

“The demon race’s blood has thick mana density. Ah, because Sir Gilbert if saying so would not know.”

At Galahad’s words Gilbert nodded. Did not understand.

“Simply speaking—.”

Galahad lightly twitched his finger.

“If gathering all and setting fire it becomes. The follow-up processing would be fine calling First.”

Gilbert could not understand even one word.
