Episode 335
He waved his hand roughly and ended the call.
Then I blankly stared at the horizon across the sea.
In a very comfortable position.
Antonio asked me in a small voice.
“Aren’t you going to the Cradle Palace?”
“I don’t have any thoughts right now. I don’t feel like doing anything.”
“You never know. Something could happen.”
He shook his head.
“My sister is not stupid. Thanos is not stupid either.”
“… … .”
“If anything happens, it doesn’t matter. If you try to do something to get something, you have to pay the price if that attempt fails.”
Antonio tilts his head, perhaps a little surprised by my actions.
“You’re a more cold-hearted person than I expected.”
I ended up laughing faintly.
“Those who have failed many times know. Two people who know the consequences of failure start something. Don’t you think they would have been sufficiently prepared? And they also have ‘allies’ supporting them from behind.”
“That’s true too.”
“If you’re really worried, go and see. If the Red Master joins, you’ll feel like you’ve gained a thousand troops.”
Antonio laughed.
He smiled and stood up from his seat.
“As I said, I remain loyal to Gunnar’s bloodline. I would do anything for you, my lord and my lady, the rightful heirs.”
“So?”
“But you are not so weak that you need someone to protect you.”
I looked at Antonio silently.
“But your body is only one. If you have an enemy, that enemy will target someone close to you. A very small risk, a really small risk, a 0.1% chance that no one can think of. I think my role is to prepare for that 0.1% chance. So please give me an order.”
He was a more interesting person than I thought.
He looked blankly at Antonio and nodded.
Who knows what’s going on in the world?
It can’t hurt to be prepared.
“Go and protect Elizabeth Valantier. That shouldn’t be too hard, right?”
“Yes. Leave it to me.”
Antonio nodded and disappeared.
Now, only two masters remain at the dock port.
Saxon Bass and… … .
“What did you say your name was?”

“Ken, this is Ken Boris.”
Saxony and Ken.
“You two don’t know how to play sashimi?”
Saxon and Ken burst into laughter at the same time.
“Are you asking the islander if he knows how to cook raw fish?”
That’s a very confident thing to say.
okay.
“Let me see your skills.”
Ken picked up the fishing rod as if he had been waiting.
Saxony jumped into the sea as if he had been waiting.
Oh, really.
I didn’t know you could jump into the sea.
When I looked to the side, Ken Boris was making the same expression as me.
Saxony seems to be a peculiar man.
He just smiled and leaned back in his chair.
Just be like today… … .

Originally, in the case of banquets hosted by the king, it was an unwritten rule that those attending were not to wear weapons.
In reality, it was natural that even if one participated with a weapon, they would have to hand over the weapon or something, but ironically, no one asked Antos for the weapon or tried to retrieve it.
The reason was that the sword was used by Samit, the king of Ishmael, but that couldn’t be the only reason.
It was simply because Antos was young.
Additionally, only the Royal Guard can bring weapons to the banquet. Each of these individuals is a high-circle mana user, and their leader, Rixby, is a mid-level master.
They are carrying weapons, what could possibly happen?
That’s what happened, and it actually happened.
There was no time to stop him.
To be exact, there were people who tried to stop it.
Knight Commander Rixby of the Royal Guard.
Although he actively cooperated with Antos’ actions, he never thought of swinging his sword at the crown prince.
So, I tried to stop it for now, but the Master who was next to Antos stopped Rixby.
Unidentified.
A master who has never appeared on the continent.
Rigsby didn’t even ask his name.

Anyway, it was only a split second that stopped Rigsby, and that split second was the moment that decided a person’s life.
The head of Orion’s Cradle soars into the sky with a rustling sound.
“one.”

Everyone looks at Antos, who is speaking quietly. This guy is crazy.
But surprisingly, Antos seemed to have no intention of stopping there.
I took a step forward and caught sight of a man.
A list of nobles from the Cradle belonging to the committee investigated and sent by Aveiro.
As the eldest son of the Grand Duke, Antos knew the emblems of all the nobles and the faces of most of the nobles in office.
There was no hesitation.
Phew-!
The famous sword Extelia was embedded in the heart of a nobleman.
“two.”
With a gasp, the sword was pulled out as the final words burst out.
The sword was then swung straight towards its next target.
Crunch-!!
“three.”
The torso is split into equal parts and blood is sprayed out.
A few of the Royal Guards tried to step forward, but that was as far as they could go.
There are two masters of the Dojo in the banquet hall.
One was looking at Rigsby, while the other was blocking the surrounding guards.
As if in a match in an underground coliseum, Antos turned himself into a beast and slaughtered the nobles.
The two nobles who died earlier were not mana users.
The common people and nobles who were mana users quickly figured out the situation.
They approached the subdued Royal Guards and took their weapons, and the 6th Circle Mana User, Count Armin, was one of them.
As soon as his broad curve was drawn out, Antos rushed towards him.
“bouncer!”
The curve is swung, and Antos’ sword is swung.
Crunch-!
Blood spurts from left to right.
It’s as if two pieces of body were cut off.
It was simple.
Because in the air, Count Armin’s neck and the arm holding the sword were rising.
“four.”
Antos’s veiny face.
It was different from what was shown at the Academy Awards.
It’s like taking rigidity to the next level.
It’s as if all the energy from the source of life has been extracted and used.
That kind of look.

Next to Count Armin was Marquis Chase, a 7th circle mana user.
He ran towards me quickly.
Phew-!
The rapier taken from the guard knight pierced Antos’s abdomen.
But it was Marquis Chase who smiled in victory.
Phew-!!
Crunch-!!
Antos’ body spun around and cut off Marquis Chase’s head.
“five.”
Antos, turning his head with red eyes, jumped up like a lion that had found its prey.
An incredibly fast speed that cannot be achieved with a giant body.
Next, Extelia cut off the head of Marquis French, a 7th circle mana user who was casting magic from behind to bind Antos.
Phew-!!
It pierced through to the cervical spine.
“six.”
Only when this situation occurred could the targeted nobles realize it.
This guy isn’t targeting just anyone.
The committee is only killing those who touched Tulcan.
There were many people trying to escape.
“Open it!! Open it!! Don’t you know who I am!!”
“이 개새끼야 열라고!”
Old nobles and young nobles.
The two of them banged on the tightly closed door, but it wouldn’t open.
Antos walks with a rapier stuck in his abdomen.
Kwah. Kwah.
An atmosphere that made it seem like a mountain was moving swept over the room.
The old and young nobles who had been shouting to open the door kept their mouths shut.
A shadow that slowly falls.
I turned around.
A giant monster, nearly 2.5 meters tall and covered in red, stands with a sword as big as itself hanging down.
“I did nothing wrong… … .”
“There is a misunderstanding… … .”
Phew-!
Crunch-!
One swing, two flying heads.
Advertisements
Antos counted silently.
“eight.”
And, Antos pulled out the rapier that was stuck in his abdomen.
He threw it like a shot put towards one of the guards guarding the opposite door, who was blankly watching the situation from afar.
Phew-!!
“Huh!”
But I quickly turned my body to the side and dodged the rapier.
Kwajik-!
Boom-!!
“Ugh-!”
The flying Anthos’ Extelia could not be stopped.
Antos, who had been walking slowly, grabbed the head of a knight of the royal guard who was stuck against the wall and trembling.
That face, a face I can’t forget even in my dreams.
Six members of the Royal Guard who helped erase the Grand Duke’s family.
One of them.
“It’s been a while.”
“Save… … Save me… … .”
“There must have been someone among the knights of the Archduke’s family who said that to you. But you spared them?”
Do you need any further answers?
Antos grabbed him and slammed his head into the wall.
Boom-!
One more time.
Boom-!!
With an intensity that continuously gives pain that feels like it will not break, but like it will shatter.
Boom-!!
Boom-!!
Kwaaang-!!
Kwaaaaang-!!
Boom-!!
After five or six hits like that, the eyes of the guard knights opened.
Losing focus, yellow water flows down the floor.
As if there was nothing more to see, Antos banged his head against the wall with as much force as he could muster.
Kwajik-!!
The head of a knight in the royal guard explodes.
Antos speaks in a numb tone, his voice cracking.
Advertisements
“nine.”
Antos turned his head and walked towards his next target.
That overwhelming atmosphere.
The two masters of the Dojo were also blankly staring at Antos, and so was Rixby. The nobles who had sworn allegiance to the Grand Duke were all looking at Antos.
Crunch-!
“heat.”
Crunch-!!
“Eleven.”
Crunch-!!
“Twelve.”
At some point, several nobles were kneeling.
A vassal of the Grand Duke.
The two were the Marquis of Mist, who was relatively old at 65, and the Earl of Donovan, who was of the same age.
In the past, Grand Duke Jeras had only one weakness.
That overly indecisive personality.
There was a prevailing prediction that this personality would come back to haunt the Grand Duke at some point, and indeed, that prediction came true.
If we look deeper, the cause of the destruction of the Grand Duke’s family was the Grand Duke’s indecisiveness.
But now, a successor has appeared who completely complements the weaknesses of Grand Duke Jeras.
Anthos Cradle.
He was not rough and did not spare even his own body.
He walked like a vanguard.
Walked and swung.
Crunch-!
“Fifteen.”
Crunch-!
“Sixteen.”
As time went by, the number of nobles kneeling increased.
Crunch-!
“Seventeen.”
Those who knelt in that number were supporting Antos’ actions.
The nobles aren’t stupid, and they don’t know who’s with Tulkan and who’s not?
That doesn’t make sense.
The nobles of the cradle caught on to Tulkan’s tricks faster than anyone else, and now, those who had been allied with Tulkan were dying.
Stop him?
It would be strange to block it.

Just like when the nobles in the Kingdom of Teslan were massacred.
Antos was cleaning right now.
Crunch-!
“Twenty-five.”
Crunch-!
“Twenty-six.”
