BXBX NOVEL Chapter 495
“……!!!”
“……!!!”
The wizards, the citizens who filled the plaza, and the knights of Mozlan all opened their mouths and widened their eyes.
‘What did I just hear?’ Just those faces.
The old wizard, who had a similar expression, barely came to his senses and opened his mouth.
“······It’s too heavy to be a joke.”
Just kidding…….
Actually, it’s a national rule to deny something when you go through something shocking.
I waited for a while without answering.
Even barbarians need time to think.
for about 3 seconds.
“······That war!!”
The moment a warrior shouted out loud.
From this point, a fierce shout continues.
“It’s a war aaaaaaaaaa!!”
“Everyone raise your arms aaaaa!!”
“Behel—Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
As more than a thousand warriors shouted in unison, the group of wizards guarding the tower visibly slowed down.
it’s not that i don’t understand
It’s absurd to compare the fighting power of a mage and a warrior based on their size, but…
that doesn’t mean they don’t have visual effects.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!”
Muscular barbarians with an average height of 2m 10 are forming a huge army and pretending to attack at any moment, so it’s strange not to flinch.
“gaffer.”
I asked, taking a big step towards the crowd of over a hundred mages.
“Does it still sound like a joke?”
“…….”
The old wizard didn’t answer anything with a blank expression as if he was dreaming.
That’s what people say.
Turbuck.
The moment you try to take one more step like that.
“Hey Baron Yandel! You shouldn’t be like this!”
Mozlan’s knight came running, causing a game.
It seemed that he recognized his role, albeit belatedly, even as he was fascinated by the maddening heat emitted by the warriors.
“That war! Why don’t we calm down and talk? Even for the sake of the royal family…!”
After all the excitement, the wording wasn’t bad.
If he had said something threatening, such as asking if the royal family would stay still, the atmosphere would have been more threatening.
“Conversation…….”
“Yes Yes! We will surely be able to reach an agreement through dialogue! Aren’t both the Mage Tower and the Barbarians one of the pillars that maintain this city? Please consider this city as well. ……!”
At the knight’s plea to make some time, I pretended to be worried and then nodded.
“good night!”
“Am I really!”
Yes, because the armed demonstration seems to have been done at this point.
I really had no intention of entering the Mage Tower like this.
The situation has already attracted the attention of the entire city.
If you recklessly attack here, only the barbarians will become villains.
So…
“Lewin Fastholm of the Egatil School!”
I started calling names one by one.
“Lurendel Lungonerd of the School of Hulvent! Oddwig Verteff of the School of Altus! Ellenel Dwainine of the School of Galatir!”
When I called the names of the wizards belonging to the Mage Tower, saying that I was going to have a conversation, the citizens listened attentively while wondering what the situation was.
“Tols Elin of the School of Ebound! Ukla Trazig of the School of Ornstadt! Of the School of Wilthom…”
So I mentioned the names of the 21 wizards one by one and asked the old wizard.
“Old man, do you know who these are?”
“Of course. Most of them are great young wizards who will lead the next era.”
“No, that’s wrong.”
I shook my head and said firmly.
“These are! The black market traitors are wizards who have requested the barbarian’s heart!”
In any war, the cause is important.
“Ah! That’s why the barbarians are at the Mage’s Tower…!”
“I heard you rescued slaves from the black market, so it seems you got that information then!”
The citizens who were watching nodded their heads after finally realizing why I had come to the Mage Tower. There were also people who agreed that they would have protested if they were themselves.
But…
‘If I was going to end it with this, I wouldn’t have come.’
An appetizer is just an appetizer, never a main dish.
“Master of the Triten School, Lurendel Galinbarrett.”
I asked another person by name.
“Do you know who Lee is?”
“…….”
The old wizard didn’t answer anything like someone who had been advised by a lawyer.
It’s not like that’s going to change the truth.
“He’s the one who commissioned the black market traitors. He wants my heart.”
I dropped the bomb without any hesitation.
“……!!”
“……!!”
It was a completely different matter from simply asking for a barbarian’s heart.
The heart of a particular living person.
Because this request was practically an assassination request.
“…Sir Gullen, if this is true, then his neck as well as the Mage’s Tower will be held accountable.”
The knight of Mozlan, who had been thinking about how to stop me the whole time, changed his expression and threatened the old man.
After all, Mozlan is not a knight of wizards.
The group itself called Mozlan was established to protect the authority of the ‘nobility’.
“…Nothing has been confirmed yet. But I promise you. If that happened, we will investigate it strictly under the rules of the Mage Tower.”
The old wizard brought out the words of an ambiguous promise like a squirrel, and Mozlan was speechless.
It acknowledges the seriousness of the matter, but takes a step back as it does not have the authority to make a judgment on the spot.
Of course, in my case I didn’t have to.
“The Magic Tower is suspected of colluding with the black market traitors. Therefore, your investigation is unreliable.”
“…Apart from the baron’s trust, this is our right. Besides, isn’t there any evidence yet?”
“Evidence…….”
Yes, I expected it to come out that way.
I brought out the venerable barbarian’s secret weapon.
“I swear.”
“……?”
“Bjorn, the chief of the Barbarians and the son of Baron Yandel of the Kingdom of Lapdonia, swears by the name of the royal family and even the tribe! Everything I said today is true!”
A mere false oath.
One was enough.
To convince all the crowd present in this place.
“You must be quite confident in making a declaration in front of everyone.”
“Then the Baron must have lied?”
“Dirty wizards! How dare you try to harm Baron Yandel!”
“Come on, bring the sinner and punish him!”
The achievements of the hero I have left so far. name value. Furthermore, the honest impression and favorable impression left on the city. And the aforementioned justifications combine to move public opinion.
“Sir Gullen, since Baron has said this far, you will have to explain.”
“Didn’t I tell you. We will investigate on our own.”
“It’s free, but do you have to do it? Call them right away and ask them.”
“…….”
“I assure you, by this evening, Mozlan will also have the authority to investigate the wizards of the Mage Tower. The conspiracy to assassinate a noble is such a serious matter. Do you really want that?”
The moment Mozlan is given the authority to investigate, the Mage Tower will be thoroughly investigated by public authorities.
There will be quite a few dirty corners among them.
However, the old wizard’s decision was a refusal.
“Thank you for your consideration, but we’ll take care of that part, so don’t worry.”
“You’re trying to go the hard way. Just call them and ask them, and you’re done, but you can’t do that easy thing.”
“…….”
At the end of the article, the old wizard exercised the right to remain silent, and this completed all public opinion.
Silence is sometimes the clearest answer than anything else.
“Dirty Mage Tower bastards! I knew that!”
“Are you going to protect those who dare to harm the baron!”
The composition that the Mage Tower is clearly an evil force and the barbarians’ anger is justified.
If that old man had summoned the wizards I mentioned here and promised to punish them for their crimes, this wouldn’t have happened
… .’
Thanks to that response, I was able to go one step further.
“Listen up, proud subjects of this city who believe in fair chance and pursue justice!”
As soon as they shouted loudly, the crowd who had been throwing words of criticism at the Mage Tower shut their mouths tightly.
Silence, better than ever to agitate.
“The wizards of the fallen Mage Tower do not have the heart to admit their sins! They are still in a hurry to protect their family members! All they have to do is summon them who are resting in the lab and verify them, but the fact that they are refusing that easy task is proof of that! Isn’t it? ”
“That’s right!”
Once again, imprint that this side is justice.
“Perhaps they will destroy evidence as soon as they go back and come back with shamelessly fabricated results.
“Right—!!”
It awakens the anger that ordinary people have no choice but to have.
and at the same time.
“But I do not intend to stand by helplessly over such sins any longer.”
tell them
That I would carry that old anger and move forward instead.
“I am Yandel’s son, Bjorn!”
by name
“I promise you! The justice of this city established under the supreme royal law of Lapdonia will be set right once again today!”
As soon as the oath was made, the uplifted citizens erupted in fervent cheers. “Wow
,,
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh , the atmosphere seems
to be ripe at this
point
.
…….”
Exhales for a long time, catches his breath, and then shouts with all his might.
“Go back!!”
After the war with the fairies, you have endured and endured
. It ‘s time
to
remind this city of
forgetfulness
.
Before leaving, he secretly glanced
sideways at his superior. Uniform neatly ironed despite excessive work.
Blue eyes full of fatigue but full of firearms.
A small hand holding a pen…
“What are you doing? Aren’t you going out?”
He flinched at his boss’s words for a moment before he opened his mouth as if to make an excuse. “It seems like I’ve been reading the
newspaper a lot lately.”
“Ah… is this?”
They were piled up in piles or piles.
However, as I pointed it out, the always confident superior averted his eyes.
As if embarrassed,
“It’s just… a hobby. Isn’t it frustrating to be stuck here every day? I know what goes on in the world.”
“…I see.”
To say that, the newspapers on the boss’s desk had the same content every time. No, it’s not exactly the content, but the subject of the article was the same
. . Didn’t Baron Yandel put his name on the Stone of Honor this time?”
“I mean. When we first met, it was just a joke, but now he really has become a ‘great warrior’.”
The voice seemed somewhat lonely.
Alex tilted his head at this.
“Aren’t you happy? Isn’t Baron Yandel also a former colleague of the vice-captain?”
“Former colleague… I mean…….”
“Ah…….”
Alex, realizing his mistake belatedly, held back his words.
Then Looking down at the newspaper with vague eyes somewhere, I felt an inexplicable suffocation.
A subordinate who couldn’t even do his job properly 1.
It was an expression that he could never make.
“…….”
“… ….”
As if recalling past memories, the superior looked out the window with his chin hanging in silence, while Alex stared blankly at the profile of the superior.
How long that time must have lasted.
“Vice-captain! This is an emergency dispatch order…!”
The office door was slammed open and a member entered. The superior
came to his senses as if he had never done so, jumped up and took his coat.
He had no choice but to do so.
The 3rd Magic Corps It’s not the Ministry of Public Security or Mozlan, which is in charge of security. An emergency dispatch order to the military under the direct control of the royal family? It
means that more than just a riot has occurred in the city.
“Tell me more.”
She went to the parade ground where the assembly order was issued. As he went out, he asked his subordinates about this and that, and soon finished grasping the situation. The situation was clear enough to be summarized in one sentence.
Baron Yandel is leading his tribe members and heading for
the Magic Tower . It’s a report.”
“Why? There must be a reason he acted like that.”
“Checking. However, as more than 1,000 armed groups are moving, it seems that the Security Administration has also requested support from the military.” “
I see…”
As a group of the military, within a few minutes after the emergency call-up order was issued, all troops in the corps They gathered at the parade ground and immediately got on a wagon and headed for the military platform.
“Vice-captain, I don’t think this is a big deal? It seems that our corps is not the only one who has been ordered to mobilize.”
Excluding the corps, numerous military wagons are lined up on the way to the platform.
However, the superior did not respond to Alex’s words. “That
person
… he’s going to have an accident this time
.
”
Also, since he has a lot of responsibilities, he must have just gone to the Mage Tower for an armed demonstration.
You don’t have to worry too much. He didn’t
just say comforting words, he said what he really thought, but his superior’s nervous expression showed no signs of abating.
” ……Alex. I think you’re misunderstanding something, but the one I’m worried about right now isn’t Baron Yandel.” ”
Yes…? Ha, but it’s still the Mage Tower.”
Alex couldn’t understand at all.
He was also from the Mage Tower, so he knew the power and power of the Mage Tower better than anyone else.
But what was she so concerned about
? “Do you remember what happened to the Explorers’
Guild because of that person?
”
At that time, a large-scale escape occurred and the entire guild branch was destroyed. The regional head got caught up in that incident and lost the next election.”
“Still… Guilds and Mage Towers are different.”
If you look at the explorer guild as a whole, you wouldn’t know.
Compared to the entire Mage Tower, the guild is no different from a hole-in-the-wall shop.
But… …..
“I too… I once thought so… Guilds and Mage Towers are distinctly different. They’re not a group that can be swayed by a single barbarian…”
“Are you saying… not now?”
Raven nodded without hesitation.
“Yes. Now that person is no longer just a barbarian. When he single-handedly overthrew him, he was only a two-month-old barbarian. But what about now?”
Alex couldn’t say anything.
Now, years later, he had become a leader of a race and a baron of a kingdom.
“Above all… I know him well.”
“……?”
“Trust me, Alex. Once that person committed it, it means it wasn’t reckless, no matter how reckless it may seem.”
Of course, Alex still couldn’t understand what he said. However, it wasn’t polite to keep refuting his superior’s words, so he held back his words
. .So
the wagon quickly ran down the road and eventually arrived at the military platform.
Support Jik Jik!
New information arrived through the Message Stone
. !Hurry up and apply!]
Despite the shocking report, the superior only let out a long breath,
as if he had been mentally prepared.
