The Bastard’s Way of Life of the Returning Swordsman

Episode 87

tail catch (2)

“This makes it clear.”

As the black dragon lowered the report he was looking at, he spoke in a solemn voice.

‘Why does this man bother to appear here?’

Julius quietly frowned.

Since coming to discuss this mission, the Black Dragon has been visiting Julius’s office every day.

The problem was that there were far more stories about Theo than about Ed or Troyban.

Because of that, Julius was in the midst of being alert.

Because the black dragon is now revealing its greed for Theo very blatantly.

It’s the same now.

I thought maybe the report in the black dragon’s hand might be an observation journal about Theo (?) rather than a mission report.

just as expected.

“Theo is also a talent that suits our black snow.”

“Are you crazy, Human?”

“If you look at this report, you will have nothing to say.”

The Black Dragon did not care about Julius’ irritation and presented the report that Cleves had urgently uploaded in front of Julius.

… … Even in the sudden confrontation with the blood priest of the Holy Demonic Church, he showed a cool-headed aspect of overpowering him with his single-handed force without any wavering… … Based on fragmentary clues, we have expressed our opinions and are currently heading north to the top of Ceres… … He has a deep understanding of the operation of Heukseol… … Additional payment is required for this.

… … As a result, the three examiners unanimously agreed to promote the apprentice swordsman Theo Ragnar to a real swordsman… …

“The report is too long? In any case, with rudeness. Try shortening it.”

“It says that the blood priest appeared.”

In an instant, Julius’ eyes sank deeply.

These cults that throw the empire and the continent into chaos have been bothering Ragnar for a long time.

He also had a bad relationship with Julius.

“Could it be that the director of the Central Security Council also joined hands with the Holy Magic Church?”

The black dragon didn’t answer.

The fan’s goal deepened between Julius’ brows.

“Did you already know?”

“… … .”

“Even so, leaving it alone meant that it would only take one properly. Anyway, I don’t know who the real serpent is.”

“no. I didn’t know.”

The black dragon shook his head simply and continued.

“I just predicted that there was something else in the cancer. The Holy Demonic Church was just one of those candidates.”

This was confidential information that only he knew, which he did not disclose even in silence.

Everything has not yet been revealed properly, so it was not possible to make a decision.

it wasn’t anymore

“Well, whatever. What does this have to do with Theo?”

“A total of three blood priests appeared, and Theo caught one of them singlehandedly.”

Julius’ hardened expression became clear as if it were a lie.

haggard.

“As expected, our youngest. As soon as I joined, I had an accident. Do you know why that is possible? It’s because I taught you swordsmanship. Also. He is a child who suits our 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.

I deliberately gave the word ‘Baegapyonggidae’ clearly and forcefully.

The black dragon pretended not to hear and continued ignoring it.

“And after that, I found out that the place where I put the request in the season of snakes was the Ceres Merchant Merchant, and even suggested an attack right away. Judgment, determination, mission performance… … everything is perfect Shouldn’t this be enough for our conscience to pass it off as black snow?”

“Conscience is a piece of shit.”

Julius snorted and put the report that Evelyn had sent up a while ago to the table.

“Stop talking nonsense, look at this. If the intelligence director sees this, he’ll stop saying things that don’t work anymore.”

By applying the auxiliary operation method, ＜The Ceremony of Enthusiasm＞, it was melted into swordsmanship… … Soon, Auror will bloom… … Judging by the high level of understanding of flying dragons… … .

“Didn’t you say that you were urgently moving to the Ceres Merchant Headquarters in order to catch them off guard? But do you know how to do that? There was a guy called Umbra in our kennel, and he was two or three times the size of a normal dragon. Theo has tamed it, and the famous Museoll and the Maehwagung swordsman are also on board, and they are all going well, I mean!”

“therefore?”

“Comprehension of blitzkrieg! Utilization of the Air Force! Even the ability to have as a partner of the dragon! This means that I have a talent and relationship that cannot be separated from Baek Gap Yong Gidae!”

bang!

Julius slammed the tabletop with his palms, jumped up from his seat, and shouted.

“Above all, he kicked off all the other trivial suggestions and came in voluntarily with full courage! Why do you keep hanging around the periphery!”

“what? A chore?”

Through the mask, one eye could be seen twitching.

“Then it’s a small thing! Or what!”

“Do you want to die?”

“What, if you’re going to kill me, try killing me!”

Julius pushed forward while violently tearing the nape of his jacket.

If you want to try it, try it.

It was really ready to crash into it, so the black dragon turned its head to the side as if it were annoyed.

“I’m going to die of noise, but should I just issue an order by issuing an order from Gajujeon to Black Snow… … .”

He muttered to himself as if he were talking to himself, but he was openly telling Julius to listen.

“This gentleman is real! I was trying not to end this. brother! Isn’t this really a little bit moral?”

“This place is not private. Be careful with your expressions, Captain Baek Gap Yonggi.”

“How are you? Then, shouldn’t our good intelligence chief also use honorifics? Shouldn’t we both be equal in terms of hierarchy?”

“… … .”

“How are you? You don’t even have an answer?”

“Originally, the Ministry of Information and Heukseol were independent organizations established separately from other organizations, so the contents do not apply.”

“You’re being shameless.”

Sigh!

Julius sighed deeply as he looked at the white mask, which was difficult to read.

“Hyung, let’s not be like this, let’s talk openly. Why? Why do you keep spitting on our Theo? Oh, he’s already scratching my insides while making fun of Theo for having him as his son!”

After I got older and a heavy title was put in front of my name, I hardly ever used brother-in-law or brother-in-law.

In fact, Julius had the best relationship with the Black Dragon, including all of Ragnar’s family members, including the Nine Dragons.

At one time, it was to the extent that they established an example of a sworn brother.

He was also one of the few people who knew the ‘real’ identity of the Black Dragon.

Kyle, Black Dragon, Julius, Maehwa Palace.

These four knew each other too well.

so much

But,

“You know one and don’t know the other, brother.”

The black dragon also crossed their arms and sneered, probably deciding to treat Julius as a sworn brother.

“What do I not know?”

“Originally, if there is something you like the most among the things your younger brother has, it is the older brother who steals it and looks at it.”

“Dog bitch… … !”

“I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that.”

The black dragon burst into laughter in the crumpled Julius face and quickly disappeared from the office.

Poof!

This time, it just scratched the inside and popped out.

“Aagh! I hate real humans to death!!”

Julius twisted his body around while tearing at his temples.

Theo and the party rode Umbra and Langus (Eveline’s partner) and moved towards the headquarters of Ceres Merchant at high speed.

In this operation, speed and time were vital, so there was no room for an inch.

However, light restoration was possible while on the move.

The heat that had blown away from Theo to the extent that it was difficult to approach was already waning.

“… … What did you do?”

Cleve made an embarrassing face behind Theo.

Doesn’t it emit heat immediately after learning the ceremony of passion, or does it give a property change to the thunder attribute, but now it has learned how to hide the heat into magic power.

To be precise, it was a method of confining heat into magical power.

Because heat itself is consuming energy, confining it can greatly reduce inefficient energy waste.

By regulating body temperature, suffering from heat disappears.

Even though he was Ragnar, who boasted of a blessed body.

Isn’t this almost a violation?

“well.”

But Theo had no choice but to cover up the answer with a smile.

I couldn’t say that I got a hint from the blood priest’s magical operation method.

‘As expected, maximizing the density of magical power was the correct answer.’

Blood light coordination was just like this.

It melts the enormous amount of divine power pouring through the brain gate into magic power, compresses it with tremendous pressure, and continues to rotate inside the body.

Of course, this was a use of the unique divine power of the Holy Demonic Church, so I couldn’t follow it unconditionally.

Because Theo also had [Spirituality], a characteristic similar to him, he was able to increase the density by increasing the viscosity of magical power.

Thanks to,

The heat emitted is trapped within the magic power, and the fluidity is much faster, resulting in increased efficiency.

‘If I make better use of this, I think I’ll be able to come up with a decent breathing and operating method.’

Theo intended to continue researching on this subject for the time being.

Of course, it was absurd for those watching from the side.

‘Was the head of the household like this when he was young? The manager saw this.’

‘Your choice was right. Theo Ragnar will write a new history for the Maehwa Palace.’

Cleves and Hazel were now convinced that they had to bring Theo into their full circle.

‘I think Black Dragon or Geomryong’s backs are serious. Too bad I didn’t see it… … .’

Evelyn licked her lips, feeling regretful that she hadn’t seen Julius, who should have been in pain by now tearing her temples apart.

Awesome!

then then

Food Deuk-

A black bird flew over Theo’s head.

A spirit creature bred in Heukseol to communicate in case of an emergency.

Cleve hurriedly stretched out his hand to check the letter delivered by Jeon Seo-gu and laughed.

“Why is that?”

In response to Theo’s question, Cleve said while burning the book with magical power.

“The concubine is doing something interesting at the top of Ceres at the right time.”

“Is it interesting?”

A question appeared on Theo and the others’ faces.

* * *

top of Ceres.

Under Ragnar’s protection, the owner of this place, who had grown into a giant guild representing the north for the past hundred years, had one wish.

The upper ranks are simply going beyond the limits of a merchant group and being reborn as a full-fledged jockey family.

And to establish itself as a prestigious family comparable to the 6th house!

What made me join hands with the Central Secretariat?

No, it was in this context that I became Ed Troyban’s hunting dog.

“But even that is still not enough. To become a jockey family… … . lack of history It lacks power.”

At the top, Quadrak Ceres muttered softly as he rubbed the two walnuts in his right hand.

“Being robbed even by a mediocre terrorist is the reality that our corps has recently been placed in. In order to do that, we need to build up our armed forces even more.”

The recent hostage crisis was a shock to him too.

And it became an opportunity to fuel his desire to be reborn as a military group.

“So this marriage must be successful.”

Took!

Quadrak’s keen gaze turned to the papers on the table.

There was a drawing of relationships between various people and forces.

With the anti-dragon Ed Troyban at the center, ‘Kyle’ and ‘Ragnar’ are placed on the upper side, forming the opposite point,

Two branches sprouted from Ed’s back and were connected to ‘Troyban’ and ‘Holy Demonic Bridge’ respectively.

Both of them are the biggest behind-the-scenes forces supporting Ed Troyban, the dagger aimed at Ragnar’s heart.

The ‘Ceres Merchant’ extended from Ed Troyban to the right branch and was grouped under the category of ‘Kyoryukai’.

And,

The top of Ceres had a unique feature that could not be found anywhere else.

That it is connected by a branch to one of the ‘six theories’ categories tied to Ragnar.

Bacchus family.

It was the place with the most aggressive and exhilarating image among the 6 theories, with a bull as its badge.

However, a question mark was attached to the branch connected to the top of Ceres.

Took.

Took… … .

Quadrak murmured, tapping the very question mark with his index finger.

“No matter what happens, we must make this marriage a success. So I have to go ahead and eat these guys. Not only will our corps be reborn as the Sixth Theory, but even Ragnar will be able to be replaced.”

Quadrak had already made up his mind to turn against Ragnar.

Considering Ragnar’s ethos of never forgiving traitors, it was too risky.

Quadrock, like an excellent merchant, has already done all the calculations for him.

‘Even Troyban is already a great family no less than Ragnar. In addition, the Holy Magic Church supported the back, and various other forces joined hands to divide and eat the north. Cataclysm is already a predestined course. There’s no law saying that the top tier shouldn’t get on top of it. Furthermore.’

Quadrak’s eyes flashed coldly.

‘Isn’t there ‘him’ behind this? ‘He’ is the true absolute of the north. It’s a game we can never lose.’

Quadrak trembled as he remembered the first time he met ‘him’.

The psychological shock he received at the time still lingered on him.

How could I go against him even after seeing that… … .

It was just then that I was thinking about it.

“Sangsan lord, a son of the Bacchus family has arrived.”

“Is it already time for that? i get it. Get out soon.”

Hearing the commander’s voice outside the door, Quadrak flipped the relationship chart back and stood up.

‘There isn’t much left of the giant. The Ceres Merchant is going to be reborn as the Ceres family… … !’
