Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 1295. Take the treasure from my abode.

Elio suddenly asked after hearing about the mysterious assembling process of the steel golem.

“By the way, how many iron golems have been excavated so far?”

It was a secret among secrets, so Viscount Norton Sherwood hesitated for a moment.

However, when he remembered that his opponent was an ally, a knight from the north, he did not hide it.

“I don’t know about the other mines, but seven were excavated in the Ferdom mine.”

“Have they been excavated in other mines?”

“Shade Masdar was excavated in a mine in Bostania. In the case of Bostania, we bought mine management rights from a mercenary guild.”

“I guess a steel golem was found in the mercenary guild’s mine?”

“That’s right. Since it was a mercenary guild headquartered in Bostania, we were able to make quick transactions.”

“Did the mercenary guild sell the mine obediently?”

“It’s better to hand over the mine to the kingdom, since private trading of iron golems is prohibited anyway. I understand that the transaction went through without a hitch as the Kingdom of Bostania paid a large sum of money.”

“Then, have steel golems come out of the three mines so far?”

“That’s right.”

“Is there any possibility that it will come from other mines?”

“That would probably be difficult.”

“Why?”

“Steel golems also have veins of steel parts, just like crystal veins. So far, there are only three mines on the mountainside that have that vein. I know that the higher you go, the less likely it is.”

“Then it doesn’t matter if the empire jumps into mine development, right?”

It was a question of why the ‘permission system’ and ‘report system’ caused conflict with the empire and even caused a war.

“No one fully knows about the veins in Steel Parts. The possibility of being excavated in the mine at the top of the mountain cannot be completely ruled out… so we are trying to fundamentally block it.”

“Looks like you’ve excavated enough to be confident enough to win the war against the Empire?”

“Of the three mines, the Ferdom mine is the smallest. The Bostania mine is medium-sized and the Masdar mine is large.”

“If seven were excavated from the smallest Ferdom mine, other mines must have more than that?”

“I don’t know, but the heat must have been excavated in the mines of Bostania. Masdar Mine will have more than that.”

In an instant, an exclamation escaped from Fabian’s mouth.

“Wow! There are too many.”

That much was enough to wage a war in the Southern Kingdom without the help of the Northern Kingdom.

Luna Mylus, who was listening, opened her mouth with a meaningful face.

“There must be more steel golems in Ferdom Mine than the Viscount said. Even now, steel parts are still being excavated. Am I wrong?”

At her sharp point, Viscount Norton Sherwood replied with an awkward smile.

“Haha, of course there may be a difference of one or two. As the saintess also said, steel parts are still being excavated.”

After speaking, Viscount Norton Sherwood looked at Count Elio Lagoa.

Now that I can see all the way to the bottom, I want to stop going above the ground.

He wasn’t the only one who wanted to get out of the tunnel.

Fabian said with a white face.

“Count Lagoa, I think you’ve seen everything you want to see now, so why don’t you leave?”

“What’s wrong with your face?”

“It’s because I’m tired.”

“Are you tired of what did the person watching the sword expert do?”

“Isn’t the air of the Abyss a bit heavy? It seems to be heavier under the ground.”

Then Elio turned his gaze to Luna Mylus.

“Saint sister. is that correct? Is the air under the ground heavier?”

“Psychologically, you feel that way.”

“Did you hear? The heavier one is the horn.”

“Whether psychological or not, if there is nothing else to do here, I have to leave. Are you going to live here?”

The tearful Fabian raised his voice.

For a moment, Viscount Norton Sherwood looked at Baron Cloud with startled eyes.

It’s the fact that he’s about to become a sword expert at a young age, but he’s yelling at the Count and Grand Master?

‘He’s not someone who would be easily seen as a baron.’

Viscount Norton Sherwood looked at Baron Cloud with new eyes.

When Fabian expressed his displeasure, Elio said with a prickly face.

“Who said you live? gotta get out Viscount Norton.”

“yes?”

“Lastly, let’s go see the factory where the steel parts are assembled. Take the lead.”

“It is an area where entry is prohibited by the real king’s order.”

“Did you say it was real? So, did you lie earlier?”

“Oh no. By order of the king, entry into the mine was also prohibited.”

“That’s it. What’s wrong?”

At Elio’s question, Viscount Norton Sherwood blinked with an absurd face.

“What are you talking about?”

“The inside of the mine is also forbidden by the king’s order, but you’re looking around. I mean, let’s take a look around the factory quietly like we do now.”

“Ah, that’s…”

Showing the steel parts in the mine and showing the steel golem were completely different matters.

That was a request that was difficult to accept, even if the opponent was a Grand Master from the North.

But who is Elio?

To him, who originally did not worry about the future, the king’s name was like a request from the uncle next door.

“Are you sure you can stop Viscount Norton if I tell you to watch it? You can say no if you are confident. However, I am not responsible for any damage caused by it.”

There is no threat like this.

Driven into a corner, Viscount Norton Sherwood unknowingly bit his lip.

I felt hot and the taste of blood filled my mouth.

The worry didn’t last long.

Above all, the gunmen of Ferdom Mine cannot stop the Grand Master.

I didn’t even have to worry about it in the first place.

“Let me show you. Instead… Promise me one thing.”

“What is it?”

“Please do not reveal what you saw at the Ferdom Mining Factory.”

“That sounds like a bit difficult, and all you have to do is not mention the Ferdom Mine, right?”

“yes. If word spreads that Count Lagoa saw an iron golem in the Ferdom mines… I will be severely punished. So, I would appreciate it if you could consider my position.”

“all right. What a difficult thing. I will leave out the word Ferdom Mine.”

“thank you. Then I will guide you right now.”

Viscount Norton Sherwood led the way with a relieved face.

Following the flashlight, Elio and the others diligently walked through the narrow tunnel.

Thirty minutes later, Viscount Norton Sherwood, who came out of the tunnel, led Elio and the others to a building on the outskirts of town.

When I first looked around the town, it was a building that was called a material warehouse.

Viscount Norton Sherwood sighed briefly in front of the assembly plant.

Disobeying the king’s order and revealing the best secret of the southern kingdom is frustrating.

Elio just looked around pretending not to know.

After sighing several times, Viscount Norton Sherwood reluctantly unlocked the lock.

Then he opened the door to the assembly plant and went inside.

Elio’s party rushed after him.

Viscount Norton Sherwood hurriedly closed the factory when Elio and his party entered.

The interior was so simple that it could be called a warehouse.

This is because it is not a factory that manufactures something, but a place where excavated steel parts are simply gathered together and assembled.

A completed steel golem stood majestically on one wall, and the body, arms and legs of the steel golem were scattered around it.

Elio pointed his finger at the steel golem.

“Is that a finished steel golem?”

“That’s right. I’m waiting for you to come get it from the Shade Kingdom.”

“Then will there be eight?”

When Elio asked as if to confirm, Viscount Norton Sherwood answered with a puzzled face.

“yes. We do not include them in the figures because they have not yet been formally registered in our home country.”

“How long will it take to finish that one?”

“That has no public. Some of the quick ones were completed in one month, but if you are late, there is no promise. Some of the unfinished steel parts here have the same history as mine development.”

“her! Why is that?”

“It’s possible that the right parts haven’t been discovered yet, or that they were spare parts from the beginning.”

“aha. By the way, do you know who made that steel golem?”

“According to ancient mythology, it is said that the Titans made it in their own image.”

“What is their shape?”

Elio looked up at the finished steel golem with bewildered eyes.

The steel golem was over ten meters tall.

“The Titans are an ancient race of giants, and it is recorded that they were faithful servants of Mana Phras. Of course, now it remains only in ancient history.”

“You mean Mana Phthras’ servant-made iron golem is buried in Mount Petra? Then what is Ushas Undra (Golden Thread)? Why do people say what I found in the Abyss is ‘the treasure of Ushas Undra’?”

“That’s because Lord Ushas Undra taught me the location of the open pit mine in Tombstone.”

“The open pit mine with the entrance to the Abyss?”

“That’s right. According to Yasa, in the past, he appeared to a mercenary with deep faith in a dream and told him to ‘take the treasure from my place’. That is an open pit mine.”

“Were you a mercenary who believed in Ushas Undra?”

“yes. In the southern realms, there are as many believers in Ushas Undra as Shastra Parakti.”

As he spoke, Viscount Norton Sherwood glanced at the saintess.

That would be the case, for Shastra Parakti is a higher deity while Ushas Undra is a lower deity.

Thinking of something, Elio inadvertently turned to Howard and Crea.

Despite attending the Imperial Academy and the Southern Realms Academy, respectively, they did not know as much about the Abyss as Viscount Norton.

He was as ignorant as himself about the relationship between Ushas Undra and the Abyss.

Prioritizing the northern academy that Fabian went to, the Ice Wall and Tamion, so even so, I think the two are a bit too much.

With stinging eyes, Baron Howard Solon and Crea spoke like an excuse.

“Imperial Academy lacks depth instead of broad teaching.”

“When I was attending the Adria Royal Academy, the person who studied the Abyss professionally died. I only learned the rough stuff.”

Elio, who was listening with a sullen face, asked Luna Mylus.

“Why is there a Titan steel golem buried in the Abyss? And why did Ushas Undra teach people the passage of the Abyss?”

Then, Luna Mylus replied in a calm tone.

“The answer to the first question is probably in forgotten ancient history. And the answer to the second question is… Maybe Ushas Undra was, of course, once upon a time in the past, but he was an errand boy for Mana Phras.”

“Yes?”

Elio looked at her with startled eyes.

It was because I had never thought that Ushas Undra had anything to do with Mana Phthras.

“You would know. That the relationship between the gods is similar to that of humans. Thousands of years have passed since the discovery of the Abyss, so relationships must have changed in the meantime. But at first, it seems that Ushas Undra also helped Mana Phrass, the deity.”
