I Regressed to My Ruined Family

I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 56

＃After returning, the family was ruined (57)

Battle in the inner city.

The Knights of the Two Barons and the Knights of the Inner Chamber were clashing their swords against each other.

The average level of Viscount Dekun’s knights was high, but it was the knights led by the archduke who actually had the upper hand in battle.

Battles were not simply determined by the superiority of skill.

There were many things that had an indirect impact, starting with the atmosphere and the morale and mindset of the members.

From that perspective, the self-authored articles were facing the worst situation.

It was for that reason that they began to become prisoners one by one.

Soon, soon.

“The Archduke has captured Viscount Lorcan!”

“The knight commander has been taken prisoner!”

A huge roar rang out in the hall. This was due to the news that all the core members of the inner city had become prisoners.

“Ha…I surrender!”

The knights laid down their swords with their faces wrinkled.

It was pointless to continue the battle as Viscount Lorcan, who was loyal to him, was taken prisoner.

In this way, all the knights in the inner city were turned into prisoners. However, there was no need to take private soldiers prisoner. Because most people put down their weapons even before the battle began.

Ethan lifted up the stunned Lorcan and shouted while carrying mana.

“From now on, the ownership of the author will change!”

“Waaah!”

The citizens of the Viscounty territory brightened their eyes.

Archduke.

His skills were shocking. His swordsmanship skills were not inferior even an inch to the knight commander, known as the strongest knight in the vast territory!

It was a scene that everyone in the hall watched clearly.

Although he received help from knights along the way, even taking that into account, the archduke’s skills were surprising.

Ten years of coma.

Destruction of Mana Hall.

It was an adversity that an ordinary knight would not be able to overcome even after a lifetime.

Not only has he overcome this in just a few months, he is now spreading his wings towards the sky!

‘As expected, it is the Ardan Dukedom.’

Guardian of the Kingdom.

The family of great heroes.

The glory of the past, when it was said to be the best swordsmanship in the West Continent, was still shining through the Grand Duke.

The descendants of heroes are very different no matter what.

Even they, who were novices at swordsmanship, could clearly sense this.

“From now on, Viscounty will begin to change.”

At the Grand Duke’s words, hope filled the eyes of the people of the territory.

I still vividly remember what he said.

A former duchy.

The Viscounty of Dekun will also return to the days everyone longed for!

“…Long live the Archduke!”

“Hail!”

The residents of the territory began to cheer at the top of their voices.

* * *

Two days have passed since Ethan defeated Viscount Lorcan.

When the knights, supported by the Count of Pernes, arrived near the Viscounty, they received some news.

“Deputy Commander!”

“What’s going on?”

“It is said that the Archduke has completely taken over Viscount Dekun!”

Deputy Commander Gerek was shocked at those words.

‘already?’

It’s only been two days since departure.

The knights have finally arrived near the Viscounty territory.

Originally, I had planned to listen to news from this area for about a day and then decide the speed of the advance.

I thought that by now the inner door would be tightly closed and the castle would be firmly maintained.

But to completely collapse?

It was ridiculous.

“Did Viscount Lorcan open the castle gate?”

“no. “After summarizing the rumors, it appears that the Archduke broke through the inner city’s defenses on his own.”

“how?”

Gerek asked curiously.

Core forces are gathered in the inner city. That was the same even if it was author Dekun.

The knight commander there was known to have reached the 6-star level, and the number of 5-star knights was close to three.

How could the Archduke break through that?

The knight’s expression darkened at Gerek’s words.

“Well… they say the Archduke went up to the inner castle… and then a battle broke out. All of the Viscount’s high-ranking knights rushed at him, but they could not subdue the Archduke…”

“…What?”

It was absurd.

Self-author’s inner wall.

There must have been a lot of knights there. You broke through that heavy defense single-handedly?

Gerek was shocked.

‘…This is a difficult task even for me.’

It wasn’t impossible.

However, in order to show the same performance as the Archduke, he had to utilize several techniques that he was secretly practicing.

Taking that into account, it could be said to be truly surprising.

“Tell me in detail.”

“yes. “Exactly what happened…”

The summary was simple.

The Archduke crossed the castle walls and confronted high-ranking knights, including the knight commander.

This is because they broke the pulley that supported the castle gate without collapsing despite their pincer attack.

The story goes that the feudal lords and knights who had been following the archduke entered the castle and the vassalage was overthrown.

“…okay. “Let’s go out now.”

“yes.”

After the driver finished reporting and left the barracks. Gerek looked around and took out a contact crystal ball.

Soon, Count Chayman’s face was revealed.

-What’s going on?

“They say Viscount has been completely taken over.”

―…I was worried that I couldn’t contact you, but it turned out to be true.

“I heard the report from the driver.”

Gerek reported exactly what he had just heard.

―…The growth rate is astounding. What do you think the Archduke’s level is now?

“At the very least, this is a 5-star or higher article. “If I were to max it out, I would probably be a 6-star knight.”

-Heh heh…

Chaiman laughed as if it were absurd. The fact that the Archduke’s mana hole was broken was a fact that was clearly verified by the heads of the 10 collateral families.

In such a situation, how can you become a 6-star knight in less than four months?

It was a growth rate that seemed to have no limits.

There is no other knight in the history of the Western Continent that has grown so quickly.

-It’s scary.

“…yes. It certainly is. “There is no end in sight to his talent.”

―Hmm….

“What should I do?”

-This was virtually meaningless support.

That was it.

One thing that was fortunate was that I was still able to show condescension.

Through this reinforcement, they will be able to break away from the image of abandoning their own faction altogether.

-Hmm. Deputy Knight Commander.

“yes. “My lord.”

―Do you think the 1st Division can deal with the Archduke?

Squad 1.

It was an order of knights that selected and gathered the elite among the knights of the count family. A secret knighthood consisting of only ten members.

Each and every one of their powers had reached the latter half of the 6-star level.

The reason why these talented people were being secretly used was simple.

This is because they were the ones who accepted the technology of the Yongin tribe without filtering.

Heidern Kingdom’s policy is to reject the dragon race.

It was difficult to use them publicly even because of the public’s attention.

Gerek nodded vigorously in response to the Count’s question.

“Even if one person attacks, I think the odds of winning are high. “If two or more of us come together, we will definitely win.”

Even though Viscount Dekun’s knight commander was a six-star knight, he was only an entry-level knight.

It is a shame to compare their skills with the knights of the 1st division, who can compete on equal terms even if a 6-star skilled person rushes in.

Chaiman nodded in satisfaction at Gerek’s confident answer.

-okay. I understand. Just come back now. There is no need to touch the Archduke now.

“All right.”

Chaiman quietly looked at the darkened crystal ball.

‘A lion’s cub is different no matter what.’

Archduke.

He was too dangerous to continue to be left alone. However, it was difficult to deal with it right away.

Because I haven’t been able to utilize all of its uses yet.

‘I guess I’ll have to do as Hans said.’

Lower taxes and prevent the circulation of Dragon Clan God Books.

Even if it seemed like he was bowing down for now, there was no way to turn the archduke’s sword against Irdan’s faction.

If only one faction could be completely destroyed, that level of humiliation could be endured.

He called the head deacon.

“Do as the intelligence chief said.”

“yes. “I will also contact other families in the faction.”

“Do that, but don’t make it public. At the very least, I shouldn’t catch Irdan’s attention.”

“We will try to create as much smoke as possible.”

Cheyman nodded and handed over a letter.

“Tell this to the Archduke at Viscount Dekun.”

“yes.”

The deacon holding the letter left the office.

* * *

Inside the Viscount’s office.

Ethan and Sylvia had already occupied the place. I read the reports she gave me one by one.

“The information is more detailed.”

Ethan was quietly amazed at the information written more thoroughly than before.

The report she compiled could be considered a kind of thesis.

Sylvia said with her head down.

“As the territory managed has expanded, the process of expanding the organization and recruiting talent has become much easier.”

“What about money? “Isn’t it enough?”

If you look at it that way, Lawrence never once requested support while growing his intelligence group.

There was no way that money would not be needed to grow the organization.

Of course, some of the money from the estate was made available.

‘That wouldn’t be enough.’

There was a high possibility that the budget was quite tight.

She shook her head at Ethan’s words.

“It doesn’t just cost money. “As we advance into Yangji, we are starting to generate separate profits.”

“Brisket?”

“yes. We have already established several branches.”

After speaking, Sylvia handed over a piece of paper.

It was a systematic organizational chart.

Ethan’s eyes lit up when he saw that.

In a village that seemed to be quite large, there was already one affiliated intelligence organization established there.

It made me wonder when on earth the rent was increased like this.

Soon, Sylvia’s eyes began to shine when she saw the map hanging in the office.

“Now, the southern part of the duchy is no different from the one occupied by the Archduke.”

She held a pen and painted over the area. The territory of the 10 collateral families was concentrated in the southern part of the dukedom.

The southernmost area in the south.

The territory began to be painted black.

‘You ate quite a lot.’

It was a different feeling to see the area occupied by the painting.

It was like consuming about 1/6 of the territory of the 10 collateral families.

“Is Viscount Itun your next destination?”

“To do that.”

Author Itoon.

A family belonging to Irdan’s faction.

Sylvia nodded.

“I think the reason the Archduke did not completely hide his power was to reveal some level of power so that he could engage in a power war with the two factions in the future… but am I correct in my opinion?”

“Roughly.”

A count family that is the head of two factions.

It was impossible to occupy this place all at once. The number of knights he had was so large that it would be a shame to compare him to his own.

This was true not only in quantitative terms but also in qualitative terms.

With the seeds that have been sown so far, it will be possible to occupy Viscount Itun without difficulty.

“I will know that and prepare.”

“okay. Good luck.”

Sylvia left the office.

* * *

After talking with Sylvia.

I found the captive Viscount Lorcan. I saw the Viscount locked in a dark prison like the previous Barons.

“…What’s going on?”

“I have something to ask.”

That noble was related to the dragon race. Otherwise, there was no way he could have spread the dragon race’s technology to the knights.

“Do you know this?”

He took out a silver badge from his pocket.

It was one of the items found in the arms of a church wizard called the head priest after hunting him down.

It was the moment that showed it.

The Viscount’s eyes were greatly shaken.

‘I know.’

If I didn’t know, there was no way I could have reacted like that.

Now it was time to extract information.
