I Regressed to My Ruined Family

I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 70

＃When he returned, his family was ruined (71)

Not only was he tall, but he also had a scary face full of beard.

Someone glanced at Marcus as he was passing along the main street of Toledo, a large city ruled by Count Irdan.

We even made eye contact for a moment.

“I… I wonder if he is someone who is called a freedom fighter.”

One of the young people asked politely.

Marcus’ face suddenly turned red. He scratched the back of his head and managed to answer.

“…yes. “It’s not enough, but it’s called that.”

“…oh my god!”

The corner of Marcus’s mouth twitched at the sight of the city residents looking at him in surprise.

8 gates of darkness.

It was a completely different day from when I was an executive there.

‘A freedom fighter.’

Isn’t this a title I couldn’t even dream of in the past when I lived like a bully? All of this started with the agitation carried out by Viscount Dekun.

The title given to him who shouted at the top of his voice that we should advance towards the inner city was ‘freedom fighter.’

It started with simple fame.

However, as Lawrence, the head of the intelligence group ‘Black Moon’, began to move, his simple reputation turned into a title.

The rumor began to grow like a snowball. It was a bonus to start playing Marcus’ montage.

Not only was he tall, but he also had a scary face with a beard.

It was a unique appearance that anyone would immediately remember.

Thanks to this, the number of people recognizing themselves has been increasing recently.

Just like Young Ji-min in front of me right now.

Marcus said cautiously.

“I…I want you to keep the fact that you saw me a secret…”

“…Ah! yes. “I will.”

Just looking at the sparkle around his eyes, I felt like he was going to spread this fact everywhere.

‘That’s it.’

He recalled the order given by his leader.

Infiltrate the big city of Toledo.

And gradually spread the word that freedom fighters are within the city. Marcus was faithfully carrying out the order.

‘What are you planning to do this time?’

Lawrence, the Archduke’s tactician.

There was a reason why he ordered something. It will be the same this time too.

By the time Marcus was waiting for the next order to come.

One of the informants secretly passed a note. Marcus, who was looking at the note written in secret words, widened his eyes.

―There was an assassination attempt on the Archduke from Count Irdan’s side.

―With the ‘freedom fighter’ as the focal point, spread rumors about it as quickly as possible.

―The absence of the Knight Commander and Deputy Knight Commander should be used as evidence.

―The second moon is granted jurisdiction over the twenty dragon slayers and the two hundred informants.

―…Appease the garrison commander of the outer castle. He is a person who has antipathy towards the Count. Materials and additional information required for the above goals will be provided later…

Gulp.

Marcus chewed the note in his mouth and looked around the city.

People in the world call themselves a freedom fighter, but the nickname he has inside the Black Moon is ‘Second Moon’.

He was given the authority to handle as many as twenty knights and two hundred informants.

‘Something big is going to happen.’

The residents of the county have suffered from enormous taxes for the past decade.

The only hope for them was the Archduke.

Collateral nobles, including counts.

When the rumor spread that they and the Archduke would hold a meeting, hope swelled in my heart.

The story spread that the reason nobles gathered together was because of tax issues.

The meeting was successful.

When the county tax went down, there was a truly festive atmosphere.

Marcus knew that too, having spent time in Toledo.

In this situation, what if the story spreads that there was an assassination attempt on the Archduke?

‘You could argue that lower taxes are just eye candy.’

Otherwise, there would be no reason to kill the archduke who asked to lower taxes.

A day later.

Twenty knights had a secret meeting with informants.

Marcus’ eyes lit up as he faced the dragon slayer he had only heard about.

Since they had to infiltrate the city, they were not wearing the ‘black armor’, one of the things that represented them.

‘…What kind of momentum.’

Each one was emitting a sharp force like a blade.

Knights who are like well-forged master swords.

Those knights were looking at him and bowing their heads slightly to show respect. That was the same even for Nerian, the knight commander who came this time.

“I heard it from Lawrence. You are the one who will lead this operation. Please take care of me.”

Knight Commander Nerian shakes hands without losing moderation and courtesy.

Marcus, seeing his appearance, hurriedly lowered his head and carefully held his hands together.

‘…Was Lawrence like this?’

Nerian was a six-star knight and the former knight commander of Viscount.

On the other hand, their leader, Lawrence, was said to be the archduke’s strategist, but in terms of status, he was only an insignificant commoner.

And yet.

Nerian was expressing his respect for Lawrence. The reason he didn’t lose his courtesy towards himself was probably because he was affiliated with Lawrence.

‘…He’s a great person.’

Even though he is a commoner, the reason he is respected by knights is probably because he has proven his abilities.

Marcus also had no doubts about Lawrence’s abilities.

Because I followed his instructions and fully understood how brilliant his strategy was.

“…Let’s begin the operation. “I ask the Dragon Slayers to do their best to prevent innocent sacrifices of the people.”

“I will try.”

That was enough.

Less than half a day after the crew arrived, rumors were spreading throughout Toledo.

-Fighter of freedom. He brought news.

―Count Irdan. Out of spite, he tried to assassinate the Archduke. And that too, accompanied by the knight commander and deputy knight commander.

-Watch your introspection. The Knight Commander and Deputy Knight Commander will be absent.

Toledo quickly fell into chaos. Did the Count really attempt to assassinate the Archduke?

One piece of good news was that the Archduke did not lose his life. The eyes of the people of the territory naturally flocked to the inner palace.

The Knight Commander and Deputy Knight Commander of the Order of the Red Lion.

These people were well known to the residents of the territory.

The private soldiers in the inner city began to pay attention to the whereabouts of the two men.

Within a day of the rumor spreading, even knights began to look into the whereabouts of these two.

Coincidentally, the whereabouts of the two people were unknown.

Starting from the time you were away until the time the rumor spread.

Everything was clicking into place.

The count’s family claimed that these two had gone out for training for a while, but no one believed them.

Starting with Young Ji-min and even the knights, most of them were like that.

This is because no one has received any news about the schedule of these two.

If you went out for training, it would have been normal for there to have been at least a word about the schedule.

Soon the next rumor began to spread.

―Count Irdan. Can’t you see that that cunning man was trying to assassinate the Archduke?

-What could be the reason? This is because of revenge for lowering taxes.

-Don’t be fooled. The fact that he lowered taxes was just a trick.

-If he continues to rule the county, tyranny will continue without end.

-If you remain silent, you will only be oppressed. If you miss the duchy of the past, now you have to shake it off and stand up for yourself.

When there was no hope.

At that time, I just lived with resignation.

But it was different now.

They were already filled with hope.

Just when I thought that life was finally getting a little easier.

The residents of the territory, having once again encountered the Count’s true nature, were beginning to become angry one by one.

It seemed as if the city was beginning to boil with anger.

The once lively street suddenly became filled with silence, and each time the patrol passed by, the residents of the territory continued to stare at them with stinging stares.

Rooms began popping up all over Toledo.

-Recently, a subversive force attempting to cause a rebellion has been detected in Toledo.

-We will never tolerate those who disturb the city’s rules. Conduct special crackdowns.

―I will pay a bounty of five hundred gold to anyone who captures the leader of the rebels who call themselves freedom fighters.

It was a strong reaction.

Private soldiers and knights began to roam around the city.

On the surface, it was claimed to be in charge of security, but no one knew that it was to threaten the residents of the territory.

The security forces were ruthless.

It was around this time that the residents of the territory who were voicing their dissatisfaction from all over the city were being arrested one by one. One of the Black Moon Windbreakers shouted with all his might.

“…a freedom fighter!”

“Freedom fighter?”

He’s big and has a full beard on his face.

The person who appeared in front of the security forces was undoubtedly a freedom fighter.

“What…what is it?”

The security forces were embarrassed.

“Free the territory residents immediately! “They just made a valid point!”

“He is the leader of the rebels! Catch that guy too!”

The moment the Count’s knights began to rush in.

Swords came in from all directions.

The knights’ eyes widened at the breathtakingly sharp attack.

That moment.

Marcus shouted with all his might, his sword drawn.

“I will no longer sit by and watch the Count oppress me! “Raise your sword for freedom!”

The wind catchers who were lined up around them shouted with all their might.

“Let’s win freedom!”

“We can no longer tolerate the Count’s tyranny!”

“Let’s pick up the sword and fight!”

A tyranny that lasted over ten years.

The anger that the people of the territory had been suppressing for so long was beyond imagination.

I was just resigned because the situation wasn’t going well.

But it was different now.

The Red Lion Knights have a fierce reputation. Even they were being badly beaten by the swordsmanship of those wearing black robes.

Courage rose up.

The number of people shouting began to increase one by one.

“Let us follow the freedom fighters!”

“Waaah!”

Toledo.

The big city fell into chaos for a moment.

* * *

More than a hundred knights were galloping across the plain.

The number of troops was too large to be escorting a single carriage. However, if you knew who was sitting in the carriage, everyone would have no choice but to nod.

The best swordsmanship in the West Continent.

Because it was a carriage in which the Archduke of the Ardan duchy was riding.

“What is Irdan’s reaction?”

“We are trying to control the atmosphere of the county somehow… but it has already caught fire. “It’s a fire that not even the Count can control.”

It was an overly casual tone for the person who provided the spark.

Ethan, who was reading the document, chuckled.

“A freedom fighter.”

Marcus.

He was one of the windbreakers who incited the people last time they occupied Viscount Dekun.

Isn’t the nickname given to a man with a scary face full of beard quite plausible?

“It was more useful than I thought. “This guy is the one who made Toledo excited.”

Ethan chuckled.

It was too humble for a guy who controls all the chess pieces on stage.

Of course, the name freedom fighter was not given for nothing.

He’s probably a guy who excels at eloquence.

‘You’ve made it to success.’

A blue scorpion that was one of the eight gates of darkness.

If you think back to the fact that he held a senior position in a group of scoundrels, it was like he was promoted very quickly.

Ethan said while looking at Sylvia.

“Good job.”

“thank you.”

She said, lowering her head slightly.

“I have already finished talking with the personnel in the outer castle. “When the Grand Duke arrives, the outer castle gate will naturally open.”

Whoa.

When did the people in the outer castle try to appease again?

Ethan was secretly impressed.

“What is your tolerance?”

“…It is possible, but there will be quite a bit of sacrifice. Are you sure you don’t mind?”

It was also possible to open the inner door.

However, unlike the outer castle, the inner castle was a place where the count’s influence was much greater.

The story was that in order to open the castle gate, noise was bound to occur.

If it were Sylvia in the past, she wouldn’t have cared at all whether sacrifices were made or not.

But it was different now.

Because he learned that his master values the people of the territory. Naturally, her strategy was also toward the side with the least sacrifice.

He also assigned a dragon slayer team to Marcus, who was sent to instigate the territory, to protect the people of the territory.

And it was for that very reason that the people in the outer castle were appeased.

“Just let me open it.”

“…sorry.”

Sylvia still felt inadequate about herself.

It was still the same now.

If I had been a little more diligent, I would have been ready to open my inner room without sacrificing anything.

“no. That much is enough.”

This was sincere.

The amount of work she was currently responsible for was far beyond that of an ordinary person.

It was difficult to understand how such a small person could carry out such hard work.

From Ethan’s perspective, she was already doing her best.

While we were talking like that.

A huge castle began to appear in the distance. It was the first big city I encountered after returning to the past.

The knights began to race towards Toledo.
