Episode 211
Sword Emperor Kinkarnon (1)
“The only one we owe our loyalty to is… … Algon.”
“I respect your choice. I will help you all go with honor.”
Among the Blood Rogues, about half of those who were loyal to Diego and the current head of the household chose to die in battle.
This was because they could not recognize Shelford as the new owner.
But rather than trying to convince them, Shelford respected their choice, and Bracken and his men executed them.
There are a total of about twenty Blood Reverends left.
But even they were still stiff towards Shelford, looking at each other with suspicion.
Theo tried to point this out though.
“I can handle more than this. I have been away from the family for over ten years. It will take time to gain their loyalty.”
Shelford’s attitude was so strong that no further intervention was possible.
Instead, they focused on interrogating what they were planning to do.
But the content was not simple.
“While the Hangryongjeon was in progress, you were each planning to cause trouble in your designated locations?”
“That’s right… … That’s right. I understand that there are already quite a few people following Kinkarnon, other than us, mixed in with the crowd.”
“It’s Seongdong-gyeokseo. It seems like they’re aiming for something in the midst of the chaos. What are they aiming for?”
“We are also accurate.”
Srrrrung-
Bracken smiled behind Theo and pulled out his sword.
The flesh sticking to the blade during the execution could not have looked more terrifying.
“Oh, there’s one thing I heard, uh, something.”
“What did you hear?”
“Yes… … . I heard that they are going to form a special force to move to the Magnolia Palace… … .”
“Magnolia Palace?”
“Where is that?”
“Hey. If you get caught lying, it’s really not that easy to get away with it, right?”
“It’s true!”
A look of doubt appeared on the leaders’ faces.
It was because it was the first time they had heard of the name of the palace, even though they had served Ragnar for a long time.
So I frown, wondering if I’m being deceived.
“Theo, do you have any idea?”
Shelford noticed that Theo’s expression was calm.
Theo nodded slightly.
“I’m not sure, though.”
The Magnolia Palace was actually a place related to Theo’s past life.
‘It was essentially a place of exile for direct descendants who were scheduled to be expelled from the family… … for a short period of time.’
Theo, who had not shown any particular activity, eventually left the family and gave up all rights and obligations related to the right of succession under an agreement with the Senate.
The place I stayed at at that time was Mokryeon Palace.
Since it is usually closed, most people don’t even know that such a place exists.
However, because it is located in the center of Winterer, it is surrounded by a large floating population and is difficult to access.
But after Theo leaves, Magnolia Palace becomes very famous.
‘Was it two years later? The Emperor’s Scepter was discovered and there was a huge fuss.’
The scepter that Sigurd the Founder used as a sacred object when he founded the Order of the Knights has been discovered.
Kinkarnon, who had obtained the scepter, declared that he was the true successor chosen by the Heavenly Progenitor.
From then on, the competition for power began to take on the appearance of an open civil war.
‘Why didn’t I think of that?’
Theo covered his face with his hands and lamented his own complacency.
A gap in memory that arose because Kinkarnon had never taken out and used the King’s Scepter since it was first introduced.
No, to be exact, it was a gap created because I tried not to care about family matters after leaving the family.
‘Moreover, at the time, there were rumors that it might be fake. Since there was no particular response to it in the Gajujeon, everyone assumed it was true.’
But if it were genuine.
If there is any secret hidden.
It was understandable why Kinkarnon would carry out such a reckless operation.
My mind has been steadily organized.
Now it’s clear what to do.
“Selford, Bracken.”
Now the two people whom Theo recognized as the masters of the Sixth House looked at him.
“Gorito, Hanata.”
Likewise, the leaders of the Baek Gap Yonggi Unit also looked at Theo with serious eyes.
“Since the Lord of the Household has placed me in the position of Sogaju, I have intended to protect this position without shedding blood on my brothers as much as possible. If necessary, I was willing to share the position of Hangryong with my brothers.”
[‘Skill: Drake Fear’ dominates a large area.]
[All eyes are on you.]
[It has dignity.]
[The voice becomes more powerful.]
Gulp!
Among the Blood Rang Inspectors, there were some who swallowed dry saliva because they were not used to this atmosphere.
The Baek Gap-yong-gi-dae also became heavily covered with snow.

“But it seems like they have no intention of following my wishes. I think I have been too complacent all this time.”
Since I was sitting in the Sogaju seat, I thought that if I just continued to prove my abilities, there wouldn’t be any more conflict.
But that was just a vague expectation.
In the end, Ragnar is Ragnar. It’s a place filled with dragons who only want to keep rising. I think he was thinking only of what was convenient for him.
“To avoid receiving such ridiculous challenges any longer. Today, I want to show you the difference in class between them and me.”
Theo’s momentum sharpened.
The eyes of the dragon symbolizing the emperor opened wide.
“I feel like I have to draw my sword on an auspicious day like today… …Would you all please help me?”
This means that if necessary, he will even purge his brothers, including Kinkarnon.
The first to move were Shelford and Bracken.
Chew!
He knelt on one knee and bowed his head.
“As the Lord wishes.”
“As the Lord wishes.”
Next, all of the Baek Gap-yong unit.
“We will be your sword.”
“Swing us as you wish.”
Following this, the inspectors of Ranke and Gardner also hurriedly prostrated themselves.
Theo turned his body the other way.
Everyone followed suit.
* * *
“Even if we proceed with the purge, we must have a justification as there are many people watching us. It would be a bad idea to suddenly attack Hangryongjeon.”
Under Theo’s instructions, the Baek Gap-yong-gi-dae, Ranke, and Gardner’s inspectors each moved forward with different missions.
“Rank, disguise yourself as Gardner and move with them.”
“Infiltrate Kinkarnon’s side?”
“Yes. The real conflict will probably start around the finals, when the atmosphere of the Hangryongjeon is in full swing. You have to be aware of their movements and then the signal will be given.”
“They want us to raid the scene.”
“If Lord Bracken comes forward, the evidence will have more weight.”
“Hahahaha! I’m glad I followed you. You’ve already given me some fun tasks to do. It’s really exciting. Of course, I have to see that guy’s face get wrinkled!”
Bracken was enjoying this situation more than ever.
Not only did he put pressure on his rival, he also became the next head of the household.
If this operation is successful, there will be no need to worry about Ranke’s influence for the next several decades.
“The Baek Gap Yong Gi Unit is divided into two parts. One part is… … .”
Theo distributed the Baek-Gap-Yong-Gi-Bi to key areas, including Hang-Ryong-Jeon and Mok-Ryeon-Gung.
It was an arrangement that allowed me to step forward immediately if the need arose.
“And the remaining 6th group will join me in watching the Hangryongjeon.”
Currently, there aren’t many people in group 6.
There were fifteen of them, including the Erica siblings, Ray, Shelford, and Arin.
But the group advised them not to do so, saying it was dangerous.
“It is dangerous. But it is actually the safest. Everyone in the audience will be Ragnar.”
Theo rather dismissed the situation with one simple word.
The confidence that Ragnar’s inspectors would be able to protect anyone in a time of crisis only made their hearts flutter.
After being scattered to various places like that.
Theo arrived at the Central Intelligence Agency where the Hangryong War was in full swing, accompanied only by Group 6.
Groan, groan.
-That person… that person…!
-It’s the Lord Soga! The Lord Soga has arrived!
-Wow… … You’re much taller than I thought.
The Hangryongjeon, which was in full swing, was briefly interrupted.
Because with Theo’s appearance, all eyes were focused on him.
“How could the Lord come to a place like this without saying anything… … .”
The stage manager ran over and bowed.
His face looked covered in cold sweat.
“I feel it would be strange for me, as the head of the household, to not attend such an important event. I have come to congratulate the new Hangryong.”
Theo answered plausibly, glancing down quickly.
Then, I was able to make eye contact with each of the challengers who were catching their breath.
Most of them lowered their heads in a huff.
Some others have even sent provocative glances.
Leje and Ansio.
-Just wait. I’ll be up soon.
Rize grinned and tapped the Grim Reaper with his hand.
The feelings she displayed were closer to triumph than hostility.
on the other side.
Even though Ansio was smiling silently, he felt the cold wall.
Theo nodded silently in greeting to his sisters.
And then.
‘… …Why is that guy over there?’
There was an unexpected person.
“Arin. That person.”
“Yeah. I guess that’s right… … Why doesn’t even Shelford do that?”
“Hey! I always told you, right? That guy is way more of a jerk than I am.”
Shelford and Arin also laughed as they discovered the same thing Theo had discovered.
A masked challenger was waving his hands loudly in this direction.
Even though he tried to hide his identity by putting on makeup, it was impossible not to recognize him because he was so small.
“Sergeant First Class? Does the Captain know you’re here?”
“Hehehe. I don’t know who the leader of the first unit is. I was really surprised! I was cheerful! But still, you saw wrong.”
「… … .」
This person is not someone who can be easily explained with words.
Theo sighed lightly.
I guess he probably just participated to kill time.
If you really want to become a Hangryong, you’ll have to leave the Baekgap Yonggi Unit.
The Nine Dragons were designed so that no more than two people could ever stay in one place.
However, Amore is also a top-class player with skills comparable to those of the Laurel Inspector.
I am qualified enough to take on the challenge.
and.
‘Kincarnon.’
Theo was finally able to meet the gaze of the being who had been sitting at the end.
As Kyle’s eldest son, he is said to have inherited Kyle’s blood more than anyone else.
The one who was closest to the throne in both his past and present life, but ultimately failed to sit on it in his past life.
and.
It was clear that the present life would be no different.
“… … .”
“… … .”
An indescribable tension flowed between the two.
Did you read that mood?
Even the audience, which had been bustling at the time, was completely quiet at this moment.
How the bastard of the Return Sword Family lives
