Chapter 1353
Episode 1353. A fight where the crazier one wins
Northwest Pheromuros.
The ancient city of Zakum.
Ancient cities in ruins are dotted deep within the forests of the Southern Kingdom.
Zakum is one of them.
Like many forgotten ancient cities, Zakum also barely maintained its shape except for the triangular pyramid in the center of the city.
Pyramid entrance.
The Phantom Unit’s 3rd platoon leader, Baron Urban Windsor, glanced behind him with a worried face.
The flag bearer who saw this asked in a low voice.
“Why is that?”
“I want to jump right in and dry it.”
“What are you doing at the inner altar?”
The rider did not yet know what was going on inside the triangular building.
“I use mental magic on the nobles of the north.”
“North? Aren’t you an enemy yet?”
“I know yeah. Besides, the nobles of the north…”
Without speaking, Baron Urban Windsor’s gaze turned to the dark forest.
Food duck!
Hearing the sound of a bird flapping its wings in the distance, Baron Urban Windsor stroked his chest.
“It’s a surprise. fuck.”
“What are you so surprised about, the platoon leader of the Phantom unit?”
“If you knew who the northern aristocrats were being interrogated from the back, you would become a new heart.”
“Who are you?”
“…you don’t have to know. Take a look around so that the gunmen don’t do anything else.”
“What is this man giving you so much?”
Despite grumbling, the rider left to carry out the baron’s order.
Altar inside the pyramid.
The altar was as bright as the face with the torches tightly inserted into the walls on all sides.
The 1st and 2nd platoons of the Phantom Squad armed with magic guns surrounded the altar.
A young knight sat bound on a wooden chair in the center of the altar, and stood in front of him two knights and a wizard.
The staff member, Viscount Cole Wood, looked at Count Rand Getty nervously.
Under the escort of the phantom troops, Baron Fabian Cloud was transported to the forgotten ancient city of Zakum.
It was to avoid interference from Count Helio Lagoa.
But at the last moment, he thought, ‘Can it be like this?’
As if Count Rand Getty hadn’t given any final instructions either.
“dismissal?”
At the call of Viscount Colwood, Count Rand Getty flinched and turned his head.
“Why but?”
“Mage (C4 Mage) has been waiting for you since a while ago.”
Count Rand Getty glanced at the 4th circle mage, but did not give an answer.

The waiting Viscount Colwood cautiously opened his mouth.
“If it’s difficult, why don’t you ask the chief of staff again? Say that you are ready for the interrogation and take a sneak peek at it.”
“Good idea.”
Count Rand Getty took out the magic communication device connected to the chief of staff and called the chief of staff.
“Chief of Staff?”
―Count Rand Getty? What’s going on?
“The preparations for Baron Cloud’s interrogation have been completed. What should I do?”
-How are you doing? Didn’t I tell you to use mind magic?
“Count Lagoa…”
The chief of staff interrupted Count Rand Getty for a moment.
—Count Rand Getty.
“yes.”
―Are you afraid that the count has a phantom unit armed with excitium?
“Oh no.”
―I know the Count’s worries. Count Lagoa is a madman. That’s why I ignore authority, order, laws and rules, and act as I please. That said, you can’t be dragged around by a madman forever. We have to show that we’re as crazy as him, no, we’re crazier than him. It’s a fight where the crazier one wins.
Suddenly Count Rand Getty thought that the Chief of Staff was a real madman.
Like Count Elio Lagoa, the chief of staff was not thinking about the aftermath.
Perhaps, as the chief of staff said, this is a fight between madmen.
Then the crazier guy will win.
At last Count Rand Getty decided to go mad himself.
“All right.”
– Well thought out. Show it to Count Lagoa. What will happen if you touch the imperial army. Let them know that an individual cannot go against the will of the Empire!
“yes!”
After completing the magic communication, Count Rand Getty turned his head to the 4th circle mage.
“Did you hear? Start.”
4th Circle Mage, Emble Gross Curl Baron smiled and stepped forward.
Then, while grabbing Baron Cloud’s head with both hands, he chanted a magic spell.
“Miesta la Mastro de Via Animo.”
“Ouch!”
With a short scream, Fabian’s body stiffened.
Whispers that were difficult to understand were heard in Fabian’s ears, who resisted while twisting his upper body.
“Keugh! go away! Bastards!”
Fabian jumped up and down like a madman while sitting in his chair.
thud! thud! thud! thud-!
Count Rand Getty frowned at the grotesque appearance.
I only gave orders to use mental magic, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it in front of my eyes.
As Baron Cloud rampaged, Baron MVL Groskell removed his hand and said with a confused face.
“A knight blessed with mana resists strongly. However, unlike a strong body, a knight’s mind is so soft that it cannot last long.”
Soon after, Baron Mble Groskell grabbed Baron Cloud’s head again.
When he chanted a magic spell, Baron Cloud jumped up and down several times.
Blood dripped from Baron Cloud’s wide eyes and nose.
As the blood gushed out, the fluttering movements gradually weakened.
Viscount Colwood quietly turned his head at the terrible sight.
It didn’t feel good to see a normal knight turned into a crippled person.
Baron Mble Groskell said breathlessly.
“We are almost done. Just one or two more and you won’t resist. I heard you’re a sword beginner… but you’re getting a lot of backlash, almost like a sword expert. It is rare to see an article that lasts this long.”
Then Count Rand Getty shouted with an annoyed face.
“Shut up and engage in magic! It’s already been 30 minutes! Didn’t I say it would be over in 10 minutes at the most!”
“Yes yes…”
Baron Mble Groskell nervously grabbed Baron Cloud’s head.
Seeing his head moving lightly, he must have lost his strength.
If it was now, it seemed like it would be successful at once.
It was the time when he had opened all the mana in the mana hall and was about to enter the magic chant.
Count Rand Getty’s magic communication tool, which had been placed on one side of the altar, flickered anxiously.
“dismissal! A magic communication tool!”
At Viscount Colwood’s cry, Count Rand Getty inadvertently picked up the magic communication phrase.
Then, as I pushed the mana, I heard a man’s shout that I was familiar with.
―Count Rand Getty! Where are you and what are you doing! Answer me! answer me!
It was Louis Fraser III, the crown prince and commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force.
Surprised, Count Rand Getty straightened his posture and replied.
“Your Highness the Crown Prince! Count Sosin Rand Getty comes. What’s going on…”
-Shut up! Where are you now and what are you doing!
“By order of the Chief of Staff, Baron Cloud is being interrogated.”
―What crime did Baron Cloud commit?
“The sin of benefiting the enemy…”
―This crazy… Whose plan is this!
“The chief of staff himself…”
―Stop it right now! Bring Baron Cloud to High Command! Got it?
“yes!”
―How is Baron Cloud? Did you cast a mind spell on him?
“…yes.”
―…
When the prince suddenly fell silent, Count Rand Getty asked.
“majesty?”
After a while, a voice other than the prince came from the magic communication port.
―If there is a problem with Baron Cloud’s mind… He will make the crown prince the same. If you want to meet the prince in good health, treat him well and bring him back. give it 1 hour
Count Rand Getty’s heart sank.
“Are you the Count of La Lagoa?”
However, instead of answering, the prince’s angry voice came again.
-Shut up and let’s go! Didn’t you hear that it was an hour! Hurry up! uh? Count Lagoa? Even the count realized that I hadn’t done it…
With those words, the magic communication ended.
Silence hung over the altar.
Baron Mble Groskell, who was holding Baron Cloud’s head, asked cautiously.
“Shall we continue?”
Then Viscount Colwood burst out.
“this guy! Does that sound come out even after hearing His Highness the Crown Prince’s orders!”
Count Rand Getty said to Baron Emble Groskell, who shrugged.
“Start with treatment. How is Baron Cloud’s mind…?”
“I do not know.”
“Don’t you know?”
“I’m stuck at the last stage… It’s hard to be sure if I’m still sane or not.”
A sigh escaped Count Rand Getty’s mouth.
No matter how urgent you are, taking the imperial prince hostage?
Count Elio Lagoa was more insane than Marquis Reid Costak, chief of staff.
“ha! Treat as best you can. When he comes to his senses, we will move to the General Headquarters.”
***
Northwest of Peromuros.
Expeditionary Force General Headquarters.
Marquis Reid Kostock, chief of staff of the expeditionary force, who was the culprit behind this situation, ran to the prince’s office one step ahead of Count Rand Getty and the phantom troops.
Unlike usual, when he saw the office door wide open, his face hardened.
‘I was really beaten!’
He himself was at the general headquarters, and it was shocking to hear that he had been attacked without even knowing a mouse or a bird.
As he entered the office, he heard the prince’s voice.
“Chief of Staff! While doing such a great job! Why didn’t you say a word to me! You know what happened to me!”
Marquis Reid Kostock quickly looked around the room.
The knights who were in charge of escorting the prince were scattered on the floor like a puppet with a thread cut off.
It is because only the batalion unit, the phantom unit, and the shadow unit are armed with excitium, and the security unit of the general headquarters is left in the old way.
Count Elio Lagoa sat at the head of the table, and next to him stood the crown prince with a miserable face.
“majesty! Forgive me! Haona Sosin did that…”
“Shut up!”
The prince, who had been insulted by Count Elio Lagoa, had no heart to listen to the chief of staff’s excuse.
The chief of staff also had nothing to say, so he bowed his head and waited for the disposition.
Elio, who was sitting in the seat of honor, turned his head to the crown prince.
“It seems like it’s been a while… Is it too late? For every minute you’re late, I’ll throw you a pair of ears.”
Then, the prince said with a white face.
“no! no! You still have 10 minutes left! Chief of staff! Where is Count Getty, why is he coming so late!”
“It is in the ancient city of Zakum.”
“How long does it take from here to Zakum?”
“It’s a distance that can be reached in 40 minutes at the latest.”
“But why still…”
Before the prince could finish his words, a group of people ran into the office.
Finally, Count Rand Getty returned with the Phantom Troops.
The phantom forces immediately dispersed to the surroundings and took a vigilant posture.
Soon after, Count Rand Getty and others who were at the altar of the pyramid entered the office.
Elio’s gaze turned to Fabian.
Fabian, who was barely standing with the help of knights and magicians, was not normal to anyone.
“These fucking things…”
Elio, whose anger surged to the top of his head, jumped up from his seat.
Grabbing the prince by the collar like a thunderbolt, he dragged the prince and put him side by side next to Fabian.
“I said I made the same!
