Chapter 1303
Episode 1303. Are you really a consistent guy?
First of all, the lord of the tower, Caranne Dolores, decided to inform the lord that the northern knight, Count Elio Lagoa, was more dangerous than rumors.
Of course, I’m not going to say I heard from Charles Manson.
“Top Lord. Count Elio Lagoa is a knight who defeated the demon lords. Not to mention having a lot of combat experience.”
“Is that why I have to reject the prince’s offer?”
“no. If so, the position of the narrow imperial mages will be further reduced. Maybe they’ll make room for the mages of the Taboola Tower. If you are the current crown prince, you will remain like that.”
It is not an exaggeration to say that the roots of battle mages were enough to tell the owner of the tower of the Parabahad Mage Tower, ‘Make more credit than the musketeers’.
Anyone can see that the prince’s heart was leaning toward the Tabula Magic Tower.
Since the Tabula Magic Tower is the developer of the finest magic gun and excitium, it has no choice but to be like that.
Tower master Reg Davis shook his head.
“It’s no surprise, since he’s someone who values Musketeers more highly than Imperial Wizards.”
“We have to show that a battle mage is better than a musketeer.”
“Huh! I wonder how the wizard’s position got to this point.”
Reg Davis sighed disapprovingly.
It is staggering to prove something that has been taken for granted for a long time.
“I can’t just accept the prince’s proposal. Count Helio Lagoa is not an ordinary knight, but a knight with the ability to supply Knauf.”
“Are you saying that magic gun and excitium aren’t enough?”
“Do you think you can kill Archduke Knauf with musketeers and wizards?”
“It’s not just a gunman, it’s a gunman who uses excitium.”
“They say that the only opponent of a sword master is a sword master, right? A grand master will do more than that. Tower Lord knows what Grand Duke Hanesu, the military god who led the Imperial War to victory in the past, was like.”
“At that time, there was no excitium.”
“In the first place, excitium was developed to deal with sword masters. I don’t think you can kill a grand master in one blow with excitium. If the Grand Master counterattacks, the musketeers and wizards will quickly turn into pieces of meat.”
“Whoops. You have fantasies about grand masters. The achievements of Archduke Hannes are great, but some of them are exaggerated.”
“I also do not believe the records of history straight away. But what I’m saying is, don’t give the grandmaster a chance to fight back.”
“That’s natural. However, no matter how much a surprise attack is made from this side, the Grand Master’s counterattack itself cannot be stopped.”
“They say that a sword master blocks with a sword master. That would be true even for a grand master.”
Karn Dolores looked at the tower owner with meaningful eyes.
“Are you saying you want to involve Archduke Knauf in this?”
“The Grand Duchess of Knauf also owes a debt to Count Helio Lagoa, right? After the Musketeers and Wizards strike, let Archduke Knauf finish it off. I leave the grand master’s counterattack to the grand master. What do you think?”
“It’s not a bad idea, but will Archduke Knauf act as we wish?”
“It’s not just us battle mages who are in jeopardy because of Excitium. Wouldn’t the knights feel more at risk? Besides, the Grand Duchess of Knauf owes a debt to Count Helio Lagoa. If the frontline expands to the north anyway, Count Helio Lagoa’s opponent will be Archduke Knauf. Unless Archduke Knauf is an idiot, he won’t miss this opportunity. It’s an opportunity to safely deal with opponents. Raising the presence of a grand master is a bonus.”
Reg Davies nodded his head, sympathizing with the deputy chief’s words.
It was certainly an opportunity that would never come again to Archduke Knauf.
“It would be nice to be sure of anything. I will discuss it with Archduke Knauf.”
“Please clearly highlight the benefits that Archduke Kaiser Knauf will gain. The reputation of being the ‘grandmaster who defeated the grandmaster’ and his brother’s revenge.”
He was conscious of the nickname given to his father, Archduke Hannes Knauf, as ‘the sword master who defeated the sword master’.
Reg Davis understood right away and said something.
“A grand master who defeated a grand master… It is every son’s wish to surpass his father.”
Tower owner Reg Davies and deputy head Karanne Dolores believed that the Grand Duke of Knauf would accept their offer.
No, I even had a humble imagination that maybe they would even support the musketeers.
After a while, the tower owner Reg Davies, who had finished talking with the Grand Duke of Knauf through magic communication, called the sub tower owner who had just returned.
Topju’s expression didn’t look good, so Carn Dolores asked cautiously.
“Have you spoken with Archduke Knauf?”
“He… declined.”
Karn Dolores said with an absurd face at the unexpected answer.
“why? As a grand duke, I have nothing to lose. Could it be that you didn’t like it because it went against chivalry?”
“Wouldn’t you know if we met on the battlefield? He said he had no intention of going to fight with him.”
“Is it because of the grand duke’s face?”
It is clear that it would be disrespectful for the Grand Duke to visit the Count.
But he should have known that it was strategically right.
“Rather… there is a child the Grand Duke has recently reaped… He is said to be a disciple of Count Elio Lagoa.”
“her! Two people raising the same disciple?”
“It seem to be like that. Archduke Knauf said that he could not cooperate, but that he would keep the secret because it was planned by the crown prince. I think we should go with the one suggested by the prince in the first place.”
“If Archduke Knauf doesn’t work… Magic gun and excitium alone won’t work.”
“Don’t keep saying no, try saying something that will work. Don’t you know that if you reject the prince’s proposal, the Parabahad Magic Tower will go downhill?”
“I meant that the musketeers were not enough.”
“By the way, don’t you say you hate Archduke Knauf? How are you going to attract people you don’t like?”
“You misunderstood. What I meant was that we needed to be supported with proper musketeers, not just magic guns. It’s hard to inflict meaningful wounds on Grand Masters with ordinary gunmen. You need a squad of musketeers rather than a squad of musketeers to deliver a blow so powerful that the grand master can’t counter it.”
If the musketeers were ordinary soldiers, the musketeers were knights blessed with mana.
Of course, the power of the magic guns they shot was superior to that of the musketeers.
The destructive power created by the overlapping effect of mana, as well as the accuracy rate, were high.
“To tell the crown prince to support the Musketeers? To the person who wants to make the ball rather than the musketeer? I can’t. No, no.”
Top lord flatly refused.
This is because, apart from the face of the owner of the Parabahad Magic Tower, the ball could be taken away by the musketeers.
“There is someone who will secretly support the musketeers.”
“Not the musketeers, but the musketeers?”
Reg Davis looked at the butler with a surprised look.
This is because Musketeers are knights blessed with mana and are not common people.
Maybe one or two musketeers?
No matter how talented the system was, it was difficult to create a musketeer in secret.
“There is no law that says you have to save it from the system.”
“Do you have a place in mind?”
“The Duchy of Pommernburg. Count Escudo, the great lord there, suffered great damage from the nobles of the north. I wondered if he could secretly support the musketeers.”
The fact that the eldest son of Count Escudo had harassed the daughter of Count Aethos and then fought a territory war was secretly known to the empire.
Count Escudo kept his mouth shut because of the oath he made in front of Elio, but it was because there were too many witnesses.
After the outbreak of war with the southern kingdom, interest in the northern knight, Count Elio Lagoa, increased, and incidents related to him were constantly talked about in the social circles of the islands.
Among them, ‘The Duel of the Marquis of Knauf Gosling’ and ‘The Estate War of Count Escudo’ were talked about like delicacies, and there was no one who did not know them.
To the tower owner, who was far from society, Caranne Dolores spoke at length about the evil relationship between Count Escudo and the northern knight.
Since it was a story that went back and forth in the social world, sweetness and saltiness harmonized, and by the end of the story, the tower owner had no doubts that Count Escudo would join them.
***
Abyss.
Dragon head mountain in the wild.
Around noon, Fabian, who was paving the way in the lead, shouted with a triumphant face.
“Sir Lagoa! Finally, Dragon Head Mountain! Shouldn’t we at least engrave our names on a rock as a memorial?”
Elio, who wore his clothes again a few days ago with an oath of speech, said with a sullen face.
“Is there anything to be scolded for doing nonsense over and over again?”
“Who’s to blame for the monumental work you’ve done as an adventurer?”
“Commemorate with the heart. Don’t force it on others.”
“Why is it so hard to engrave your name?”
“Forced. You have to see it even if you don’t want to see it. Imagine having strange names written on rocks everywhere you go. Are you feeling good?”
“Oh, that’s it again. It’s kind of uncomfortable to think that a rock you’ve never seen has a name you don’t know who it is. I will do it with my heart.”
It must have been about an hour since we climbed Dragon Head Mountain.
Swear words erupted from Fabian’s mouth, who arrived at the huge rock wall first.
“no way! Twin bastards!”
This is because people’s names were engraved on the rock wall that looked like a folding screen.
Baron Howard Solon and Crea burst into laughter when they saw the jumping Fabian.
Elio, who arrived late, saw it and said, ‘Tsk tsk!’ tongue-in-cheek
No matter how old it was, the intaglio name was full of moss.
The adventurers who came to Dragon Head Mountain said they could count them on one hand, but there were more than ten names.
In retrospect, there are no other dangers other than Ceratops, but does it make sense that we have come this far with only a handful of them.
Fabian, who tried to engrave his name on the rock, could hardly contain his anger.
“under! really! To tarnish such a beautiful rock with your name! With my eyes open, I can’t stop looking, and every time I see it, it’s disgusting!”
“What are you so angry about? They are all like you.”
“Are you like me? I did not carve my name into a rock.”
“You were trying to write. It’s just that there was no sage like me next to them.”
“ha! I hate to admit it, but I will admit it today. Except for the sage part. Because I’m not that cowardly.”
“Either way.”
Suddenly, Elio waved his hand.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through the rock wall.
Raindrops of stone dust fell and erased the names that had filled the rock wall.
Smiles appeared on the faces of Fabian and Crea, Baron Howard Solon, as the rock face was cleared.
Just before leaving again, Fabian said in passing.
“Carving our names in the middle of a rock face in Lord Lagoa… wouldn’t be nice, would it?”
“Are you really a consistent guy?”
“Hehe Didn’t Lord Lagoa say that people die if they suddenly change? uh? Put down your fist. It was said as a joke. I will leave now.”
Fabian jumped forward as if running away.
However, Elio didn’t pursue him like before, as if he hadn’t put his mind together yet.
