Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 1184. Can you be my champion?

It was embarrassing and resentful, but strangely, Benzel did not feel anything special.

It’s been like this ever since the knight commander begged me to ‘become the marquise’s woman’ last night.

Elio, who had been listening silently, glanced at Benzel’s face.

It’s because it’s so calm as if it’s someone else’s story.

However, her eyes were dry beyond complacency.

how to say

It feels like seeing dry grass seen in a secret desert desert.

Rather, he seemed like a more alive person at the time when he was a little while ago.

When she finished talking, she kept her eyes on the horizon.

Viscount Elio Lagoa and Marquis Gosling Knauf have a close relationship to the point of being like older brothers.

Not to mention, it has nothing to do with you.

Rather, it would be fortunate if he did not force his back to go to Marquis Knauf.

“Sir Wenzel, don’t you like the Marquis Knauf?”

As expected, the words came out as expected, but Benzel was not hurt.

I didn’t expect it, so I didn’t get hurt.

What is surprising is that he treats himself as a knight from beginning to end.

At a time when everyone considers herself to be a ‘common’ woman.

Maybe that’s why his tone softened a little.

“What I want to be is a knight, not the lover of a nobleman. And I’m sorry, Marquis Knauf, but it’s not even my taste.”

“Queuck!”

When Elio said that he didn’t like it, he burst into laughter without knowing it.

With that one word, I could tell her sincerity.

On the one hand, Benzel looked different.

A knight who was still only a commoner refused the courtship of someone like the Marquis Gosling Knauf!

Viscount Elio Lagoa’s laughter hurt Benzel for the first time.

She thought he laughed at her like the other nobles.

“i know. I said something presumptuous. As the knight commander said, it would be right to know and accept it as the honor of the family.”

“Then why did you refuse?”

“It is a knight. A knight who swore to defend his honor with a sword cannot live like a prostitute.”

“Yes.”

Elio nodded his head.

Apart from being a knight, there was no reason to forcefully live with someone I didn’t like.

Benzel looked at Viscount Lagoa through Ellie with curious eyes.

Do you think the Marquis of Knauf and the older brother agree with what he said?

Even his real wife, the knight commander, is pushing him to go to Marquis Knauf?

“Aren’t you against it?”

“Should I object?”

“The Viscount is close to the Marquis of Knauf.”

“Even close friends may have different thoughts. Marquis Knauf and I are not one body.”

“But in the end…”

Benzel blurted out.

The words ‘You’re going to stand on the side of Marquis Knauf!’ came to my throat, but I held back.

That’s because it’s up to the heart of Viscount Elio Lagoa.

Feeling limited, she turned her gaze back to the horizon.

I didn’t know that the task force would threaten even the captain of the knights for their affairs.

Reality is not romantic.

In this world, there could be no female knight who refused Marquis Knauf’s courtship.

It would have to end either by giving her body to the Marquis of Knauf or by committing suicide.

She focused on the latter.

Couldn’t she let William and Gibson Cannon die and become the marquise’s woman?

‘Yes, let’s die.’

She had just made up her mind and heard the voice of Viscount Elio Lagoa in her ears.

“Then fight.”

At first, Benzel thought he had heard wrong.

“yes?”

“If you’re a knight, fight.”

Benzel looked at Viscount Elio Lagoa with absurd eyes.

To fight against the sword master as a mere mana user?

“Did you tell me, a mere mana user, to fight now?”

“Aren’t you going to fight someone stronger than me? You said you were a knight?”

“You are talking nonsense in reality. Yes, of course I want to fight. But I can’t handle even the lowest rank of the task force. Asking me to fight the Marquis of Knauf… is nothing but ridicule.”

“There’s a system of great warriors, right?”

“ha! Daejeon is good. But who in the world would fight the Marquis Knauf for a penniless commoner knight like me? Would you do it if you were the Viscount?”

“Please politely ask.”

“If you ask? Will you fight?”

Benzel gritted his teeth and glared at Viscount Elio Lagoa.

Marquis Gosling Knauf is the younger brother of Archduke Kaiser Knauf.

Fighting the Marquis of Knauf Gosling means fighting the Grand Duchess of Knauf.

No knight would ever try to turn the Grand Duke of Knauf into an enemy.

Maybe this is a joke in the style of northern nobles?

But for such things, Viscount Elio Lagoa’s eyes were clear.

This time Elio turned his gaze to the sea.

“Sir Benzel has not yet politely asked for it.”

Only then did Benzel realize that Viscount Elio Lagoa meant what he meant.

A crack went through the hardened heart.

Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind: ‘Perhaps this young northern aristocrat really has a heart to help him.’

Any moral human being could have that level of mercy.

In an instant, Benzel’s heart jumped with ‘thump’.

Even in the dead eyes, there was a moment of life in the middle of the day.

But that didn’t last long.

She believed that only God could deliver her from the clutches of the Marquis of Knauf.

What happened to you cannot be resolved with sympathy or compassion.

No matter how much Viscount Helio Lagoa was a sword master, he couldn’t fight against the Grand Duke of Knauf and win.

Even innocent northern aristocrats could have suffered a violent death.

If it was the Marquis of Knauf, he would still be there.

Stung by her conscience, she couldn’t actively ask for help.

The voice of Viscount Elio Lagoa was heard in the ears of the conflicted Benzel.

“It is said that heaven helps those who help themselves. If you don’t ask for help, even heaven can’t help you.”

The hesitant Benzel struggled to open his mouth.

“No knight can stand up to the Grand Duke of Knauf. I feel like they’re forcing me to sacrifice too much just because of me…”

“Who said the big sacrifice? I don’t even step forward if I think it’s a sacrifice. My motto is ‘Help when you can afford it’.”

At that, Benzel put down his burden and spoke in a calm tone.

“Viscount Elio Lagoa. Can you be my champion? The opponent I have to fight is the Marquis Knauf, so I won’t resent you if you refuse.”

Elio replied.

“I will be Lord Benzel’s champion. Challenge the Marquis of Knauf to a fair duel. Enough then.”

After speaking, Elio turned around and walked away.

Benzel, who blinked at the unexpected answer, shouted at the back of his head.

“Why?”

Elio, who was going back the way he came, stopped abruptly.

Benzel asked as if to confirm.

“Are you doing it out of sympathy?”

Elio answered without looking back.

“Is it wrong for a knight to fight for a knight?”

“Then why! The opponent is the Marquis of Knauf!”

“In my hometown, knights are like that.”

***

After breaking up with Benzel, Elio, who returned to Sea Breeze Tavern, called Fabian and Count Larva Omar, who were resting separately, together.

“I met Sir Benzel by chance a little while ago. A lot happened during our voyage.”

As Elio started to hurry, Fabian said with a confused expression.

“Oh! That matter has reached the Viscount’s ears after all.”

The ignorant Count Larva Omar asked Fabian.

“What is it?”

“I also heard last night that Marquis Knauf had a dark heart for Sir Benzel and wooed him. When he refused, he tripped the people around Sir Benzel one by one… and sent them to the gallows. Two were executed on the gallows in the harbor.”

“Mmm!”

A heavy moan escaped from Count Larva Omar’s mouth.

I knew that the Marquis of Knauf was horny, but I didn’t expect it to be to that extent.

‘To do such a thing in front of Lord Lagoa… I thought Sir Lagoa was too easy.’

The Viscount Elio Lagoa he saw was a righteous knight.

Not only did he take the lead in fighting the war against the demons, but he was even looking for the sun god to die for peace on the continent.

He wielded his sword mercilessly against the great nobles of the north, but he was a truly elusive nobleman who used his respect for the commoner coachman.

If he found out about Benzel’s circumstances, the result would have been obvious.

“So I asked Sir Benzel to find a great warrior and confront him.”

At Elio’s words, Fabian let out a deep sigh.

“It looks like the Viscount decided to step up as a great warrior?”

“Oh right.”

“What about the Sea of Demons?”

“To see injustice and be silent is to participate in it. It’s not going anywhere, and I’m thinking of helping out for a while.”

“ha! Viscount. If you destroy Marquis Gosling Knauf, Archduke Kaiser Knauf will not stand still. The Grand Duchess of Knauf has a power equivalent to one kingdom.”

“so? Can the Grand Duchess of Knauf kill the sun god?”

“I can’t even dream.”

“I am the one who will kill the sun god. Where do you compare?”

“It’s not a comparison… I’m saying this because if the Grand Duchess of Knauf rises up, it could interfere with the voyage.”

“Are you turning away from the injustice in front of me and saving the world? I can’t do that.”

“You should return home soon.”

“I don’t want to regret this or that when I return to my hometown.”

“Oh! All right. Who will break the Viscount’s stubbornness?”

Fabian sighed, but surprisingly, Count Larva Omar was calm.

“Don’t worry too much, Baron Fabian. Since it is at war with the southern kingdom, there is a high possibility that the Knauf Archduchess will not actively step forward. They wouldn’t want the fight to escalate even in the imperial palace.”

“I’d appreciate it if you did, but… I don’t know if Archduke Knauf will just cover it up and move on.”

Then Elio clicked his tongue and said.

“Tsk tsk! Let’s sell our worries. What if it just doesn’t go through? If you turn your eyes away and attack, you’ll be beaten. Or should I cut off your arm so you don’t get caught up in it?”

Even so, Elio, who had a lot of antipathy towards the aristocrats of the other world, didn’t care.

“Viscount. Then, what do you do when the empire decides to attack you? please calm down You weren’t like that before, so why are you like that now?”

“What if the Empire decides to attack? The empire is doomed. I’m going to wipe it all out. twin babies. Will you come to your senses if you enslave all the nobles?”

Elio’s voice grew more and more excited.

In fact, Elio, who had waged a great war in the ‘Heaven of Kings’, was not afraid of the Empire.

Frightened by his words, Fabian was at a loss to keep an eye on his surroundings.

“Please try to stop the Count and Viscount. This is going to be a real big deal.”

As the level of remarks gradually rose, Count Larva Omar hurriedly evolved.

“There will be no fighting at the imperial level. If you touch Lord Lagoa, the northern kingdoms will rise up. A fight with the Marquis of Knauf is likely to end in a ‘typhoon in a teacup’.”

“It will. Ah yes It should be. You must be very busy with the war with the southern kingdom, so would you care about work here?”

To please Viscount Elio Lagoa, Fabian changed his words like flipping his palm.
