Duke’s Quadruplets Are All Overpowered Chapter 54

54

The once powerful horseman was now stuck in a sand pit. The gap was clear even against the dismounted soldiers of the 9th Legion, who were said to be able to slay even demons.

“You still don’t know?”

The leader of the horse cavalry did not give an order to retreat. He stepped forward with his fighting spirit burning. As he steps forward, his soldiers rise up and shout. Even though each one broke five bones.

“You guys are not my opponents.”

These soldiers are criticized as monsters of forced loyalty. Responsibility for one’s duties must be at an all-time low. I thought that since I showed my skills, they would bend on their own. But they were more vicious than I expected.

“It doesn’t matter even if you are the emperor of Kunkan.”

When the captain shouted, it sounded like a lion roaring.

“You arrogant bastard! Do you think you can bring us into submission without getting blood on your hands! Even if a knife sticks to my throat, I will die chewing your flesh!”

The dismounted soldiers were prepared to die. At first glance, it looked like the true posture of a soldier, but I frowned and sighed. It’s a really old, boring situation.

“A guy who thinks stubbornness is his beliefs.”

I made Ramel Star from a rod shape into a sharp sword. He then pointed at the leader of the horse-riding unit with the tip of his sword and spoke in a sad voice.

“I’ve seen bastards like you many times before. “Stupid bastards who can’t grasp reality and only make unnecessary sacrifices.”

The leader of the cavalry was so angry that his mane trembled and he shouted.

“What does a young bastard know?”

“… “I know.”

I remembered the past.

A more distant past than the life I lived as a Polestar.

A guy who thought stubbornness was a belief. In the end, he is a foolish bastard who threw his followers into a pit of fire.

I looked at the horseman leader. The guy who was running rampant down the street in anger met my gaze and said softly with a puzzled face.

“… bloke. You are no such thing as a ‘moon child’. you… “What are you?”

I burst into laughter. I think someone once said that the eyes are the window to the heart.

This is a guy who didn’t believe me until he demonstrated his skills.

“I’ll give you three chances.”

Now no one will doubt my words.

“If you say you’re sorry before that, I’ll forgive you.”

thud! thud! thud!

My words became the catalyst.

The horseman leader and the soldiers following him rushed at him, making dull footsteps. Certainly, the leader and elite soldiers were two or three levels higher than the other soldiers. But it’s still not a threat. I used the sword used by the so-called ‘shamans’ of the martial arts group. During the actual battle with the Lanistas, there was one martial artist who was particularly impressive. His older brother was said to be a ‘Taegeuk sword’, like the idiot of ‘Malko Taoist’. It is a strange sword technique aimed at subduing people with a sword that kills them.

Against the beast-like charge of the horseman, I only dealt with the back of my sword. Like a reed leaf swaying in the slightest wind, it meekly avoided harsh attacks. Even the fierce attack could not graze a single hem of my clothes.

“It’s your first chance.”

It is not just a naive method of swordsmanship.

With murderous intent, my sword silently approached and was aimed at the head of the horseman leader.

There was a moment of silence.

However, the captain, who was close to death, still had his fighting spirit burning.

He struck away my sword and then attacked again. He pushes his head in, exposing his ugly teeth, as if he wants to bite me to death. I dodged the attack with just one step and placed my sword on the guy’s back.

“Second chance.”

No matter how tough the muscular skin is, if I apply strength, it will be cut like tofu.

It’s not like he doesn’t know that fact. But this time, the guy didn’t give up and picked up the sword that fell on the ground and swung it. He was close range, but it wasn’t an attack he couldn’t avoid. But I deliberately held my body upright and received his sword without any resistance.

“What!”

There probably wasn’t a human body he couldn’t cut down until now. This time, the difference in power must have been evident, and a look of astonishment appeared in its yellow eyes. My body, which was smaller than the guy’s forearm, bounced the great sword away. This is the most noticeable change after learning internal skills.

Self-defense strength.

“master!”

In this world, it is the symbol of ‘Master’.

It wasn’t until the third time that he started to hesitate. But he was a stupid guy who didn’t care about life and death to begin with. Even now that he realized the gap, he believed that stubbornness was his faith and eventually swung his sword at me again. I nervously swung Ramelstar and smashed his sword.

“Choose carefully.”

Three chances are over.

It was a short moment, but the captain’s expression changed moment by moment.

Then, in the end, he glared at me with empty, resigned eyes.

“I am not afraid of death.”

He swung the broken sword once again.

There was no force in the attack. He is asking me to kill him out of desperation. His sword couldn’t even reach me. When the leader of the Talma soldiers lowered his head, the Talma soldiers lost their will to fight.

“Kill it.”

I glared at him emotionlessly and then turned around.

“Who said they were going to kill you?”

The baldness disease was different from what was rumored. A hideous body and a cruel temperament. Well, that’s true, but I wasn’t forced to swear allegiance and have no choice but to take on the dirty work of guarding against Melkaran. At least between them, there was a bond and belief that could endure even death.

So I’m annoyed.

“Let me know.”

He is not yet at the level where he can freely unleash sword energy like Lannistar. But I have the ‘release magic’ given to me by the stupid archmage. I borrowed Dalbi’s energy and poured out my power through the sword. The operation method was different from Reverse Meteor. Pieces as small as embers were shot out like buckshot, cutting into pieces the horsemen.

“The youngest son of Reinberg, the Blue Pillar, of the great Kunkan Empire.”

“He single-handedly beat up the dismounted soldiers of the 9th Legion.”

“Then, he is said to be the hero of heros who conquered Melkaran.”

I deliberately spoke each word at a time so that he could hear carefully.

Then he approached the fallen soldier and raised his fist indifferently.

Afterwards, what it felt like to be beaten to the brink of death was etched deep into their bones.

* * *

Unlike the first time, they just looked at me with fear or bewilderment as they walked towards Melkaran. As soon as the fight was over, Gulsey followed. I didn’t know when or how he hid, or even felt his presence.

“Oh right.”

As I was walking to Melkaran, a thought occurred to me and I looked back.

The depilated soldiers, who could barely keep their eyes open, looked at me with a creepy expression.

Contrary to their worries, I still had a small business left to do.

“Do you have anything to drink?”

* * *

After passing the signpost area, a full-fledged land of death unfolded. The previous Scavenger village had a terrible stench, but Melkaran had a dry, stale charcoal smell. The most surprising thing was the sky. In a dirty sky filled with red clouds that looked as if sand would pour down instead of rain, the dark red sun, like the sun just before an eclipse, hung solidly. Of course it is not a physical phenomenon. It is a terrifying scene created by strange powers such as magic or the devil.

“Hide well, you.”

Girlish was Taeyeon Peony. It seems to be an innate trait rather than courage developed through training.

“How did you do it? “It doesn’t seem like a skill that can be learned.”

When the fight broke out, Gulshi ran away.

The problem is that while I was fighting the horseman, I briefly missed Gulshi’s presence.

I, with my sharp eyes and blind eyes, could easily find him, but even a fairly high-level fighter would not have been able to easily spot the hidden girl.

“From you, ma’am.”

Gulshi blushed and answered.

“You said it was the power of the clan.”

I don’t know why she was embarrassed, but Gulshi cupped her cheek in her hand and lowered her head.

My mother’s secrets seem to be many more than those written in her diary.

I implicitly asked Gulsey a question.

“Gulshi. What else are you hiding? “There are no secrets between us now.”

“Hmm? ah! “It was Madam who sent me to the southern island.”

Gulshi answered.

“what? “You didn’t go voluntarily?”

“Of course!”

Gulshi spoke confidently.

“I was Confucius’ maid, but I was also Madame’s disciple. She had a hard time. Three times a week! I went back and forth between my home and the island and reported Confucius’s condition to my wife… … .”

“Wait a minute, you were spying on me.”

“Because you knew that Confucius was cheating.”

I shrugged. It’s been less than a year since ‘those guys’ got used to it. At that time, I believed that I could hide and live leisurely for the rest of my life, and I wanted to do that. I would like to excuse myself by saying that it was a foolish and foolish choice, but I had no choice. After all, the main culprits who destroyed their world were brothers and sisters, right?

“okay. So what. Should I apologize?”

“yes.”

“Are you sorry for being an idiot?”

“It’s okay, master.”

There is no point in arguing with Gulsey.

Gulshi smiled brightly. You can’t spit on her smiling face.

“Even if my father said that, I didn’t know that my mother thought of me that way.”

“how?”

“Anyway, you said you were a wise man’s disciple. Why have you been my maid ever since you returned from the island?”

“That’s right, because I was the one who chose you, Master?”

“ok?”

Gulshi smiled and continued talking.

“My wife told me that when the time comes, I should assist the one of the four princesses who will become the ‘next head of the family.’ Just as Madame, as a wise woman, worked secretly in the shadow of the Libera family head, I was raised to be the hidden assistant of the Reinberg family. “I was destined to help Reinberg and the matriarch like you someday.”

I looked into Gulsey’s intense gaze and turned my head away.

“So, I believe that you will become the head of the family!”

“… “I may be a bit better off, but compared to my older brothers and sisters, I’m a little better.”

“They are definitely much more amazing than you! But you are even more special.”

“what.”

“You can guess whether the bath water is hot or cold just by looking at it… … .”

“done. It’s a girl. “You have a miserable way of looking at people.”

“And for some reason, your brothers and sisters don’t seem like people… … .”

Gulshi started spitting out words, but then kept her mouth shut, as if she had missed it. No matter how young she was, she had the sense to know that it was wrong to do even a little harm to the heirs of the family she served. But I expected Gulsey’s backstory, and I fully understood it. Maybe Geulsi has a great eye for seeing. Funny enough, the reason Gulshi thinks of me as the next head of Reinberg’s family is because I’m such a predictable genius.

Anyway, it wasn’t a bad feeling to know that someone believed in me.

“however… “I didn’t quite understand this incident.”

“why?”

“It was a fight that could have been avoided, right?”

Gulshi was curious.

She said she didn’t understand my behavior at all.

“Or you could have hidden your identity. However, Confucius proudly revealed that he was Reinberg’s Confucius. Even though the behavior of the horsemen is terrible, it is obvious that they will have a bad relationship with the private property and lords of the Free City… … .”

“That’s what I’m hoping for.”

“yes?”

“Relationships are not important to me. In the future, problems so big that the conflicts we just encountered will become a trivial matter of daily life. “Are you telling me to worry about each and every relationship, come up with the best answer, and express my status and reputation?”

Gulshi’s face gradually turned white.

“joy. There’s no need for that. If I had been weaker than the horse horse unit, I would have had no choice but to bend down. But even though it has such strong power, who cares or what? A perfunctory performance is shit. Neither porridge nor rice is allowed. At least I… … .”

I swallowed my words. Gulshi had no obligation to know the future I was envisioning or predicting. The twins were steadily preparing for the future, so I, who fell behind, had to catch up with them. What is really important is not the relationships of this world.

Melkaran is the beginning.

The rumor will spread.

I have a duty to make myself known better.

The Moon Child’s reputation alone is not enough.

I remember the absolute power of their notoriety on Earth.

“Even the demi-humans who live at the end of this world will know my name.”

Heaven and earth are children’s sole vassals.

Shakyamuni said these words, which seem arrogant at first glance.

“There’s a crazy dog ​​with brown eyes living in Reinberg.”

“Ugh!”

Gulshi was disgusted and spoke in a trembling voice.

“What on earth do you want to be?”

“Nothing special. “I just want everyone in the world to listen to me.”

“yes? Are you planning on unifying the world? “Lanistar probably doesn’t have that kind of ambition either.”

I thought the twins really lived as they pleased. Because he had the power to do so, he had no hesitation in taking action. But they knew much better than me, the weak one, why we were born as twins and the danger that posed to the world.

That was worth learning.

Gulshi suddenly got down on her knees. She had a look of despair on her face.

“Master… “He has fallen.”

“Don’t be cynical.”

In fact, although I spoke boldly, I had no intention of acting recklessly.

I didn’t avoid this because I thought I could handle it.

I needed more strength.

Damn it, I keep having flashbacks of my past life.

I was unable to get out of the pit, even though my whole body was being eaten away by the uncertain danger. What are the consequences of a life that has been prolonged like that? Didn’t she end up miserable and not even remember how she died?

I won’t leave any regrets.

In this life.

certainly.

* * *

A rough texture transmitted through the window. The soles of my feet are becoming ripe on the red earth.

The desert of Melkaran was hot like a sauna. The sunlight was as warm as a needle, and sometimes when the wind blew, small grains of sand would get into my nose, so I had to blow my nose frequently. But what was most annoying was the smell.

“It looks like there was a forest fire.”

As time passed, the burnt smell got worse. I tried blocking my nostrils with a wet handkerchief, but it didn’t help.

“It’s called Saengmyeohyang.”

Surprisingly, Geolsi held up well.

“Saengmyeohyang?”

The guy fluttered his nostrils and spoke with a serious expression.

“The smell of burning life.”

“Yes, girl. Show off your extensive knowledge.”

“The reason we are afraid of Melkaran is not because of stupid killers or mysterious creatures. It is said that the scent of life-killing that permeates the land of Melkaran is the scent of death knights burning life. It is also called the scent of hate!”

Death Knight.

Apart from the common name.

Various cultures, including the Kunkan Empire, regard them as having some symbolic meaning.

A taker of life, a sower of death and a loyal servant of the devil.

I expected to run into them as I searched for the ancient kingdom in Melkaran.

“If this stench is that of a death knight, then the worse it is, the closer you are to them?”

“yes! Madam said that the Melcaran beasts, who also enjoy eating human flesh, are the only ones who do not eat dogs. Even though they fight like they’re going to kill each other, when their dog starts barking, they leave everything behind and run away?”

“Oh my. If you follow the scent, you’ll probably run into them. good. “Let’s chase away the stink, girl.”

“yes? Wherever there is a smell, there will be a death knight, so if you say you follow the scent… … .”

“Don’t act stupid. “That’s what you think.”

Gulshi’s expression suddenly darkened. She looked at me blankly again, as if asking if she understood correctly, and I grinned and nodded at her.

“Hi-!”

When you see something, the reaction is big. I spoke in a low voice to Gulsey, who was shaking with her arms.

“Do you regret it now? “You chose the wrong place to follow.”

“Uh, uh, eeing.”

Gulshi, who was groaning strangely and groaning, answered by shaking her head with difficulty.

“I made up my mind. Madam’s best disciple, the wise man’s fingers! Shamefully, would you give up as soon as you start? I am willing to give this life to you, Master… … .”

“done. “Even if you give it to me, you won’t get it, so don’t be nervous.”

Gulshi grumbled and walked after me.

I hid my true feelings. To be honest, I was a little touched and more burdened. Someone following me, trusting me, and trying to help me. Some servants who are born without a conscience try to take full advantage of them, but I have a fairly sharp conscience. It hurts when you get stabbed. It was like that in my past life too. What happened to the subordinates who followed me?

Actually, the solution is simple.

If I don’t break down, I can embrace many people.

“… “I still have a long way to go.”

“yes. “No matter where I go, it’s an endless desert.”

I took out a piece of paper from my pocket.

Then I bit my thumb slightly, smeared the blood on my paper, and threw it on the floor.

There is magic in paper. It is a means to contact them. My signal must have been delivered faithfully.

This is already the fourth chapter.

Even with this urging, has there been a response from Melissa yet?
