“Oh, I missed one. A disciple of the sword saint Darian.”
Helmut’s gaze shifted to Talon standing aside on the other side.
He expected that Black Hawk would have noticed him to some extent, so it was just for guessing.
How much he told the king about himself.
‘Temple, Sprout of Darkness, Forest of Pahe.’
Did I say that far? Or, did you even notice it?
Even though the King of Veneta and Black Hawk have a close cooperation, it would be difficult to expect the truth from someone like Talon. The king did not mention the temple.
“Is anything I said wrong?”
Instead of denying it, Helmut gave a short answer.
“I just had some business to run in Rodril.”
In the face of those who could obtain some information through denial and acknowledgment, silence was the most effective answer.
And what is important is not what kind of person you are, but the purpose shown in Beneta. And purpose? There was nothing special.
“Then why did you follow Rodril here?
“Because you might assassinate Rodril.”
Helmut countered.
“Blackhawk is here, and that’s what they specialize in.”
“I am the king of Veneta. “I don’t use such petty tactics.”
The king’s face was filled with anger. Elaga looked at the two people in turn and yawned, in a way that did not fit the mood.
What are you doing moving your mouth? Let’s fight quickly! It seemed like he was expecting that.
“And what if I have other intentions?”
Helmut’s eyes turned cold.
“You’re so weak that you can’t even take my sword.”
Helmut grabbed the king by the collar with a murderous gaze.
It flies up into the air as easily as a piece of paper. Helmut whispered thoughtfully into his face.
“If you weren’t the king of Veneta, you would have died here already.”
Knowing that, neither King Veneta nor Talon called Helmut here.
Of course, Helmut has no intention of killing the king. However, even though there was only one witness, it was possible to do something about it.
“Meow!”
Elaga meowed as if that was the end of it. Talon, who was watching the conversation, came forward as if he was troubled.
“Stop it. As you said, he is the King of Veneta. “He came here to talk.”
Helmut let go. The king managed not to lose his balance. He stood in place and felt his neck.
In an instant, his complexion turned white after being stabbed by Helmut. He had to see that things were better than he thought.
A person who is not a proper swordsman is still standing there after being stabbed to death by a swordsman swordsman. Is this a spirit unique to the royal family?
[There were people weaker than you. How can a guy called the king be so weak?]
Elaga was talking mindlessly next to me. This is the moment when the king, having gathered himself from Helmut’s threat, tried to open his mouth again.
“your majesty!”
At that time, the door opened, and a woman came in. As soon as she saw her, her king gave her a puzzled look.
“Teresa, your body… … .”
Soonjeong was even in tears as she was worried about her condition even though her life had been threatened a little while ago, but the person concerned was not really interested in the king’s feelings.
Teresa folded her arms and listened.
“Is it because of Your Majesty’s base jealousy that you summoned him? For some reason, he asked me what I was talking about with him!”
He speaks as if the king was persecuting Helmut.
This was the one who interrogated him, but he was also the one who grabbed him by the collar, which seemed unfair to the king.
“No, there’s something suspicious about him… … .”
However, before the king could speak, Teresa suddenly interrupted him.
“I explained it that way, but you don’t believe it and you’re cross-checking with him? How! “This is also an insult to me!”
“Teresa, I don’t mean that…” … .”
The king, who was not particularly nervous in front of Helmut, hesitated and stretched out his hand toward her.
Elaga tilted her head and muttered next to her.
[I guess that human woman is stronger than you. That is the attitude towards the strong.]
‘is it.’
Anyway, he wouldn’t be able to defeat Area, so there was something similar in that respect. For some reason, I felt generous toward the king.
In the end, the man and woman who were fighting with Helmut and Talon in the background reached a catastrophe. Teresa declared, shaking the king away.
“We should rethink our engagement!”
“Teresa!”
The king was shocked, but Helmut was also a bit surprised. Was she the king’s fiancée? No, was it decided recently?
Rather, he didn’t know why he had to be here watching King Veneta fight with his fiancée.
Anyway, Teresa’s eyes filled with tears.
“Anyway, Your Majesty doesn’t trust me, and since I can’t use magic, I’ll just be someone you don’t need for a while.”
“Even without using magic, you are an intelligent person and have already helped me a lot. “I hope that continues.”
“A wizard who cannot use magic cannot represent Fidelis. “My father is going to use this as an excuse to take away all my authority.”
“Instead, you will stand next to me as the queen of Veneta. Isn’t that enough? “If you want, I’ll put everything I said on paper as soon as the sun rises.”
“your majesty. “What I need is Your Majesty’s trust.”
“If I don’t trust you, who will I trust?”
The king wrapped his arms around Teresa’s shoulders. Teresa looked up at him with teary eyes.

When the atmosphere suddenly changed from warm to unfamiliar, Elaga made a sound that was uncharacteristic of a cat. Her acting skills were immature.
Teresa, shedding tears, immediately spoke sternly.
“But you still have to leave a notarization.”
“… … “Sure.”
As soon as the king answered, Theresa hugged him and shot a triumphant look at Talon.
Of course, it was a look in the king’s eyes that could not be seen.
Helmut, who had to worry a bit about why she was worried about Talon even though the king was sodomous, soon found another answer.
The king’s scales were divided between Teresa Fidelis and Blackhawk.
And regarding the Rodril incident, it was Teresa who worked on it, and Black Hawk who brought in new information and took care of it.
The situation is such that the king’s trust has no choice but to lean towards Black Hawk.
Besides, hasn’t Teresa lost her magic? For her part, she felt as if everything she had built was falling apart.
Because Teresa strongly insisted on using Rodril and gained something as a result, the king gave Rodrile a considerable price to negotiate.
If the King had not found out information about Area through Black Hawk, the negotiations would not have been possible.
Everything she did was motivated by her desire to gain merit.
This is a woman who was the head of the Department of Magic. Even when she returned to Veneta, she was on a roll.
He is the type of person who can’t stand anything unless he achieves the best results and is recognized as the best.
Her intentions were clearly visible in Helmut’s eyes as well.
Teresa must have already known that the king had feelings for her.
‘Are you saying you want to take power in a way other than as a wizard?’
Teresa, who was unable to use magic for a while and was at a disadvantage in competition with Black Hawk, made the best choice to take power.
I don’t know if she had that in mind from the start. If she is a queen, she has no place to rise unless she usurps the throne.
Talon, who was being held in check for no reason, muttered in a low voice.
“What a great young lady.”
Helmut also agreed. Elaga muttered next to her.
[what? So who won? Did you draw? Is it a negotiation?]
In any case, he was still a long way from understanding humans.
King Veneta said as he nudged Teresa to the side.
“Yes, Theresa. Anyway, I’d like to finish what I was telling the customer.”
“Aren’t you asking about last night? “Is there something else I don’t know about?”
The corners of Teresa’s eyes furrowed. Talon quickly intervened.
“I reported to the king what I learned about him. Let’s listen together.”
The king immediately turned his head to Helmut.
“Are you preparing for revenge? “Isn’t that why he found Rodril?”
Ready for revenge? That sounds unfamiliar. Does revenge mean sticking a knife in the heart of the mother who abandoned you?
But Helmut didn’t want to do that.
I remember coming out of the forest of Pahe following her voice that I heard when I was very young.
That is what made the Helmut of the past and the Helmut of the present into existence. And Helmut’s past and present, although he was once engulfed in extreme despair, were not solely filled with misfortune.
Even though Magritte did not want Helmut to appear and even betrayed and abandoned him.
The king looked at Helmut’s expression and slowly shook his head.
“That’s not true. Back off yet. “You seem to be lost.”
“Did you call me to check on that?”
Helmut changed his tone again and spoke harshly.
“I was curious. “What choice will the bloodline of Renosa, who was kicked out, make?”
“I haven’t chosen yet.”
The king took a step closer to Helmut. His voice was as low as a whisper.
“But in my case, you will know. No, you might already know.”
Serious eyes. His eyes were full of wisdom and understanding that had gone through countless experiences before him.
“In the end, there is only one way to protect yourself.”
Fight back, take over. That was the fate that sometimes fell upon the royal family.
The Grand Duke of Linosa is a member of the royal family who rules the Principality of Linosa, and Helmut is a member of the royal family.
Even if that authority has been taken away, the blood flowing in his body cannot be denied.
‘But you don’t know that I have a sprout of darkness.’
Because of this, the king does not know that Helmut has an enemy called a temple. He doesn’t seem to know.
But how could he and Helmut be the same? Whether in terms of location or justification, Devis was much better than Helmut.
But the king spoke lightly.
“And you have more than me. I have excellent swordsmanship and friends. is not it? Lucky for me, she showed up.”
The king looked at Teresa and smiled. Teresa was also smiling.
It was a short but meaningful conversation.
