Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 1355. A madman is scarier than a demon possessed.

Elio looked at Fabian with an angry face.

I was sent out saying that if I stayed in Minos, I would die, but I don’t know why it suddenly came back.

She saved him with her quick judgment, but if she was a little late, she would have become an idiot.

When Count Helio Lagoa seemed genuinely angry, Fabian quickly explained what had happened.

“…If the Southern Kingdom’s counterattack succeeds, it will surely be because of the new weapon. We conclude that the creators of the new weapons or the arms dealers supplying them to the southern kingdoms may be the cause of the confusion. I came here because I wanted to tell Lord Lagoa quickly… I was arrested by the Imperial Army.”

“The southern kingdom army is planning a counterattack with a new weapon?”

“The company commander of the Southern Kingdom Army said so. Don’t you know Lord Lagoa? When you become a company commander, you have many opportunities to access advanced information.”

“If that is true, it will be difficult to see the future of the war.”

“you’re right. Isn’t there a ‘vanguard of chaos’ at the source?”

“It is very likely.”

“there is!”

Fabian said in a confident tone.

Because that was the most prominent activity in the war between the Empire and the Southern Kingdoms.

After thinking for a while, Elio asked.

“What about the other southern kingdoms? Will they join the counterattack too?”

“The southern kingdom army commanders I met in Krasion naturally believed that. I heard that troops from other southern kingdoms were actually gathered in the Dnirov Kingdom and the Urum Kingdom. As soon as they confirm the power of the new weapon, they will join the war.”

“Huh!”

A shot came out of Elio’s mouth.

Until now, it had been a war between several kingdoms and empires near the Great Grove.

However, if the entire southern kingdom moved, the scale of the war would be as large as the previous imperial wars.

“At a time like this, you arresting and interrogating me, an aide to Count Lagoa? It seems that the staff of the Imperial Army are also out of their minds.”

“He believed in Axisium and tried to touch me. Don’t call me Grand Master, that’s it.”

“Then can I go back to Krasion?”

“I don’t think I should go.”

“You said you would die if you stayed?”

“Marquis Theo Stauran, who was targeting us, is dead. For the time being, the Imperial Army will be quiet.”

“aha! But why did you kill the Marquis of Stauran?”

Elio shrugged and replied.

“I warned you that you would die if you touched me… but they didn’t listen.”

“Ouch! Is that why the Imperial Army staff turned a blind eye?”

“It’s not necessarily because of that…but it must have been affected to some extent?”

“I don’t think it’s because of how much, but because of it? Isn’t the Marquis of Stauran the closest aide to the Crown Prince? You killed such a person… You didn’t dare say anything to Lord Lagoa, but instead, you took out your anger on me, right? How about the exact composition?”

Elio, who had nothing to say about him, quickly changed the subject.

“Were you investigated by the staff?”

“At first you were an investigator, but at some point you changed to Count Rand Getty?”

“What did he say?”

“Why did you go to Krasion? The southern kingdom is preparing for a counterattack. If you have any information, blow it up. Is that so?”

“That’s it.”

“yes? What?”

“We arrested you to investigate whether you handed over Imperial Army information to the Southern Kingdom and whether you knew anything about the Southern Kingdom’s counterattack.”

“That is the superficial reason. In reality, Lord Lagoa killed the Marquis and took me!”

“look. Did you go to Krasion after wandering around in Peromuros? So, when you met with the commander of the southern kingdom army, didn’t you talk about the imperial army? From the point of view of the Imperial Army, that’s espionage. Besides, the counterattack is also very important information from the point of view of the Imperial Army. Because your arrest wasn’t just to piss me off.”

“Wow! driving me crazy. That’s not what Lord Lagoa, who had the accident, would say. Lord Lagoa killed the Marquis, so I was taken!”

“Who is not? You admitted that I might be a little bit like that. But that’s not all. Shall we go back to the chief of staff of the Expeditionary Force and ask who is right?”

“Oops! That’s it. What do you make excuses for when you can just admit that ‘it happened because of me’? Who wants to catch it?”

When Fabian straightened up, Elio stopped saying anything else.

“Yeah, it’s all my fault. You haven’t done anything wrong to the point of snow. Are you okay?”

“You should have done that right away. If it had been like that from the beginning, the story wouldn’t have been this long.”

“stop! stop. It looks like it will bleed from your ears.”

“Sir Lagoa, is there blood coming out of your ears? My heart bleeds whenever Lord Lagoa blames everything on me.”

“okay. Stop it because you did something wrong. please.”

“Don’t blame others again. Even if Sir Lagoa breathes, problems arise, so think it’s all my fault.”

“that’s right. It’s all my fault, so let’s shut up now.”

“yes. Then, can I follow Lord Lagoa to Minos?”

“It won’t be long.”

“why?”

“If nothing else happens to the Imperial Army, we’re going to go to the Southern Kingdom.”

Elio’s purpose was to find and eliminate the ‘leader of chaos’. If there were no suspicious figures in the Imperial army, it was natural to move on to Krasion.

“All right. I will also diligently look at the trends of the Imperial Army.”

“no. you just stay still There’s no way the Imperial Army would like you, who was arrested for ‘benefiting the enemy’. You will only get more suspicion.”

“So you want me to just stay in a chalet?”

“That helps. If you go out and get arrested by the Imperial Army again, things will only get messy.”

“Ey, the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, the crown prince, will not allow it.”

“You don’t know what people do. If the crown prince, who is annoyed by you, pretends to be crazy and unleashes the excitium… You could be arrested again. At that time, no country can save you as easily as this time.”

“Please. Excitium is a weapon that gives ordinary people (musketeers) the power of sword expert knights… Will the prince solve it? Will the order of the world change?”

“A sheep with a ‘lion’s heart’ is stronger than a lion with a ‘sheep’s heart’? A gunman is, after all, a gunman. He became a lion with excitium, but said he had a ‘sheep’s heart’. They cannot go against the will of those in power.”

“Are you saying that the positions of knights and wizards will not change?”

“No, it means that those in power will not take away their positions. Not all knights and wizards are powerful.”

Fabian looked at Count Elio Lagoa with strange eyes.

The analogy between the lion and the sheep was a little strange, but I seemed to understand what he was talking about.

“ah! At this point, don’t you think Lord Lagoa’s hair is also bad?”

“Did you think my brain was bad?”

“Because you don’t use your head at all. To be honest, Sir Lagoa hasn’t worn his hair until now, has he? You say you don’t even think of strong people?”

“Well, this is not a thinking head… how to say… well yes that’s right. insight! It’s an insight. Eyes that see through the essence of the situation and using your brain are two different things. Insight just happens.”

“Ah yes.”

Fabian replied casually and led the way toward the city.

It was already late at night, so Elio and Fabian decided to start looking for accommodation.

The streets of the warring city only occasionally came and went with Imperial troops, but no residents were seen.

The two went to a building that was still brightly lit.

As the two entered, a middle-aged man approached cautiously as if to greet them.

“Are you looking for a place to stay?”

“That’s right. Can we have dinner?”

In response to Fabian’s question, who had not eaten anything all day, the middle-aged man thought for a while before answering.

“Originally, it’s not possible… but the customer’s face looks like it’s been starving for a few days…. If you don’t mind noodles, I can cook them for you right away.”

“Oops! I will eat noodles with gratitude. I was starving all day today.”

At those words, Elio clicked his tongue.

“Tsk tsk! Didn’t they give you something to eat?”

“I was good at not eating. If I had eaten, I would have vomited. Even after I came to my senses, I felt sick to my stomach for a long time, as if I was getting seasick.”

The owner noticeably intervened in the conversation between the two.

“I will serve the noodles quickly.”

After the owner found an apron and disappeared into the kitchen, the two of them went to an empty seat and sat down.

Elio looked out at the darkened street and suddenly asked.

“Are you feeling okay? I heard that the aftermath of mental magic is so scary.”

“it’s okay. I keep hearing some noise… but it’s tolerable.”

“What are you talking about?”

“You can hear people talking in the market place, right? I hear that kind of sound whenever I can forget it.”

“Hey, just hearing that is scary. Is it like a ghost?”

“Ah no way. I hear only a buzzing sound. But if I concentrate to hear what it is, I can’t hear it again.”

“It looks like a shy ghost.”

“Because I’m not a ghost!”

Fabian, who was uncomfortable even if it wasn’t so, let out a loud voice.

Elio, startled by the sudden action, blinked his eyes.

“Or no, why are you screaming? Are you doing something you didn’t do? Are you crazy?”

Also, fearing that Count Elio Lagoa would say, ‘A madman is a stick,’ Fabian hurriedly waved his hand.

“no. I’m not crazy.”

“But why are you screaming? men and horses.”

“I keep hearing strange noises, so I’m dying of anxiety, but you say it’s a ghost… I’m annoyed.”

“You can’t yell at anyone for being annoying.”

“Yes yes. I will be careful.”

Elio looked at Fabian suspiciously.

I wonder if I heard a real ghost.

However, he soon withdrew his suspicious gaze from Fabian when he did not sense the deceit that is unique to someone familiar to him.

“I said it wasn’t a ghost.”

“know.”

Fabian was delighted at Elio’s sullen words.

“Not really?”

“Because it is not. You said no.”

“Did you see that a thief is a thief? It’s not the work of ghosts, right?”

“that’s right. The hallucinations are the aftermath of the mind magic.”

“iced coffee! thank god. After all, it was hallucinations!”

“what? Did you make a fuss about saying no without such conviction?”

“I hope not. Hallucinations make my heart feel lighter. ha ha ha!”

Fabian, who had been downcast, changed his attitude and burst out laughing this time.

Elio, who was watching the scene, asked.

“Hey, it rained in your heart and the sun came out, right?”

“yes? why?”

“I think the emotional ups and downs are too severe. It’s like a crazy person.”

“Are you crazy? As you go through life, you can feel good or bad.”

“I thought, but don’t go back and forth too much. I was more afraid of a madman than a demon-possessed one.”

Fabian was about to retort when the owner came out with noodles just in time.

It was when Elio and Fabian ate half of their noodles.

From afar, a sudden ‘Thump! thud! thud!’ Then came the sound of magic cannon firing.

The two of them ignored it because it was a noise they heard often around Peromuros and focused on chopsticks.

It was when Elio and Fabian stuffed noodles into their mouths.

Suddenly ‘Kwaang!’ One side of the wall flew away with the sound of an explosion.

Fragments of the smashed building flew inside, but luckily they were blocked by Elio’s self-defense technique and fell hurriedly.

Elio, who had blinked his eyes with an absurd face for a while, turned his head.

A view of the small city was visible through the demolished wall.

Magical cannonballs were falling like a meteor shower over the city occupied by the Imperial Army.
