Part 2 Episode 127
Eastern
Belin felt puzzled inside.
Because the delegation came out faster than expected.
‘Did you at least get a hit?’
The clash with Mervinger was something that was expected.
That was exactly what the imperial family was aiming for in the first place.
However, to say it was just a collision, there were no injuries, and Wazle just looked like he was very upset.
“You’ve arrived just in time. No, these kids… !”
His face was very red, as if he was about to say something.
Belin wasn’t curious about that at all.
Something to know what Wazzle went through.
What was important to him was something else.
“Did you convey the emperor’s words to Duke Chanseong?”
“Yes?”
“I asked if I conveyed Your Majesty’s words well.”
Small but sharp eyes.
Even if Wazle was a three-pronged person and walked around with his shoulders straight, he couldn’t openly show his temper towards Belin.
Because he was a direct subordinate of Cromhel, who currently had the best position in the imperial family.
“Of course I told you the story! But it’s clear that they are plotting a rebellion!”
“… “What do you mean by that?”
“I am someone! Isn’t he a Samgong who rose to the rank of Taewi? There is no one whose eyes for seeing people are as clear as mine! “You’ll know it when you see it!”
Wazle’s face turned bright red.
“They should not just be warned verbally, but they should really be crushed by the imperial soldiers! “Don’t let it happen again!”
“… .”
Belin’s eyes slowly became cold, but Wazle didn’t seem to notice.
“No, why did the emperor take a look at those guys? So, isn’t this what’s going on again?”
“Be careful what you say, Samgong. No matter how much of a trifle you are, what you just said is a remark that disrespects His Majesty the Emperor.”
“ah… Hmm! “I apologize for that.”
Belin frowned.
Sad eyes.
Wazle seemed to have felt an unusual atmosphere only then.
I slowly changed my stance while observing the appropriate amount of attention.
“anyway! “After hanging out with the barbarians, they became very useless.”
“… .”
“Now that I think about it, it seems like the Magic Tower and the Protestant Alliance that are taking Mervinger’s side are also a problem, so let’s tie them all together and sort it out!”
Belin listened to that and quietly closed his eyes.
I was trying to hold back the headache rising from the back of my neck.
‘Considering your usual behavior, it looks like you’re in real trouble.’
It was clear how Wazle would have been treated by Mervinger.
Actually, it wasn’t a difficult mission.
All you have to do is read the emperor’s orders as written.
But I set the candles properly.
‘That’s what I was aiming for in the first place, but… Still, it doesn’t seem like we’ve achieved what we were aiming for here.’
Seeing the soldiers’ expressions made me confident.
Tsk!
Belin clicked his tongue lightly.
If Wazle’s head had been cut off or he had been beaten up, they could have used this as an excuse to impose sanctions on Mervinger.
Isn’t this why you can’t do anything?
In fact, Elric Mervinger may have read this strategy as well.
In other words, the image of the imperial family in the East was greatly damaged without any gain.
I wondered how I could be so useless even at that age.
“kyung! Sir Belin! Are you listening to me now? “Let’s go back to the imperial palace!”
“… .”
Belin looked down at Wazle with emotionless eyes.
‘I guess I can hear more details from the soldiers.’
If it is useless, you have no choice but to get rid of it.
There was no pressure because there were orders from above.
‘He also said that if it cannot perform its original purpose, use it for another purpose.’
chuck!
With that in mind, he moved his hand to the sword sheath hanging on his belt.
* * *
smart.
Someone knocked on the reception room door.
“Elric. “Someone from the delegation came again.”
“… !”
“… !”
Hearing that it was a mission, the vassals turned to Elric with surprised faces.

They said you would soon find out just how ragtag they are.
That’s exactly what came to mind.
Elric gave an expression that said, ‘What did I say?’ and then nodded.
“Let them in.”
After giving his permission, the door was carefully opened.
Behind the soldier who came in with a salute, there was one knight guarding the delegation.
However, it was not the person who came in with Wazle a little while ago.
What stands out is that there was a luxurious-looking wooden box stuck to the knight’s side.
Elric glanced at it and asked.
“What’s going on?”
“Ah, from the mission… .”
“My name is Guard Captain Belin.”
Belin stepped forward, interrupting the soldier.
“I brought you this gift to apologize for my rudeness earlier.”
“gift?”
Hermann narrowed his eyebrows and tilted his head.
It seemed like I was throwing out all the swear words I could until I got kicked out.
I couldn’t understand why they would suddenly give me a gift along with an apology now.
“Can I leave it here?”
“I know.”
thud!
Belin placed the wooden box in the center of the desk.
“What’s inside?”
“You will be satisfied when you see it.”
The corners of Belin’s mouth slightly rose.
“Then I will open it.”
Click!
As there was no other deterrent, I unlocked the lock without hesitation.
Then the contents were revealed.
“… !”
“… !”
“her… !”
In an instant, all the vassals burst into laughter.
Because there was Wazle’s head in the box.
But there was only one person who wasn’t surprised.
That’s Elric.
“You saw it, right?”
He smiled lightly as he looked at his retainers.
* * *
“I heard about the disrespect that Samgong showed to Duke Chanseong through other articles. He said he would take responsibility for it and finish it, so he wasn’t particularly worried… I had no idea things would turn out this way. “I will personally apologize here and now.”
Belin bowed his head solemnly in front of Elric.
It’s so proud that you wonder if this is really an apple.
Elric let out a chuckle.
He realized that his apology was directed ‘only’ to himself and not to his retainers.
‘I guess it means you can’t bow your head to other vassals.’
Of course, I didn’t show it.
“it’s okay. Lift your head up. “I didn’t do it myself.”
“thank you.”
Belin raised his head.
He paused for a moment and opened his mouth.
“First of all, I would like to say that there was a misunderstanding.”
“misunderstanding? “We heard something, but I don’t know what the misunderstanding is.”
Andre asked somewhat warily.
They say he cut off Wazle’s head.
Because the imperial family’s hostility toward Mervinger and the East did not disappear.
Rather, if they let their guard down in this way, they could have been attacked by surprise with an absurd justification.
Haven’t you yourself been falsely accused in the past?
I’ve already done that once, but there’s no way I can’t do it a second time.
“I completely understand. “It is true that the imperial family is suspicious of the duke.”
But despite Andre’s attitude, Belin remained calm.
This level of backlash seemed to have been expected to some extent.
“However, I have no intention of starting a war of nerves. “The Mervingers are a family that contributed greatly to the empire.”
“… .”
“Also, what Samgong said is not the empire’s position.”
“Are you saying this was an arbitrary action on his part?”
“That’s right. Not only does the Empire not consider the Duke a traitor, but it also hopes that you will resolve the ‘minor’ misunderstanding when it is convenient for you.”
After hearing that, Andre looked back at Elric with a meaningful expression.
‘Are you going to listen to this man?’
Belin’s words seemed reasonable at first glance, but they were nothing more than a nonsensical excuse.
The imperial family must also clearly know why Elric clashed with the Inspection Bureau and the Lion House.
Nevertheless, sending an envoy like this meant that they wanted to regard Elric as a traitor.
In order to somehow hide their own shame and deal with Elric, who would be the biggest danger.
What in that situation?
Shamelessly asking me to clear up a misunderstanding.
I was so dumbfounded that I couldn’t even speak.
‘Just give it a try and if there’s no reaction, take it… I guess that was the intention from the beginning.’
As Elric, it was just ridiculous.
“of course. “I also didn’t want to hurt the royal family’s feelings like this.”
“I’m so glad you understand.”
Belin was pleased with his words and opened his mouth again.
Conversing while wearing masks, even though both parties fully know each other’s intentions.
Isn’t that ultimately politics?
“A small misunderstanding could have ruined the long-established relationship between the imperial family and Mervinger.”
“ha ha ha! That’s right.”
Elric and Belin laughed happily.
Starting with that.
A simple conversation took place in a somewhat more friendly atmosphere.
Belin left the reception room after saying that he would see him at the imperial court soon.
Pop.
As soon as he did that, the smile disappeared from Elric’s mouth.
“That’s not even funny.”
He muttered that and leaned back in his chair.
But what happened a little while ago was not completely meaningless.
The fact that he appeared in such a low manner meant that the situation in the imperial family was not as good as Elric thought.
If they had the time to spare, it was right to come out stronger.
But rather than that.
‘Because it’s Sutli, why don’t you cut off Samgong’s head and bring it back?’
Eat.
‘It’s funny even thinking about it again.’
Elric sighed.
No matter how honorable the title was, he died at the hands of a guard knight.
This was nothing short of showing that the imperial hierarchy was a complete mess.
Just as Elric said a moment ago, they are a ragtag bunch.
“You saw it, right? “The imperial family will never harass the East for the time being.”
Elric said confidently.
Thanks to this, the vassals were somewhat relieved.
In their view, the imperial family was in no condition to operate an army.
But I didn’t intend to completely relax.
There was no problem ‘right now’, so I didn’t know what would happen in the future.
“Anyway, I guess I’ll just end this here. “Everyone will have a lot of work to do.”
“All right.”
The retainers nodded and stood up one by one.
There were a lot of things that needed to be prepared to prepare for a war that would someday come.
“Thank you for your hard work. “My lord.”
“I will wake up first.”
And that was when the two retainers stood up from their seats.
“Oh, you two will stay for a while.”
Elric stopped the two people.
Brian and Ate.
He was an executive of the Star Wars.
* * *
Until all the retainers in the reception room have left.
The two people always looked like they couldn’t understand.
No matter how much they thought about it, they couldn’t remember why Elric left them behind.
And when the last vassal disappeared.
“I’m sorry for keeping you waiting.”
Elric’s mouth opened.
“No, what are you saying?”
Ate waved his hands in a way that was unbecoming of his large size.
“But my lord, why did we…” .”
Brian asked cautiously.
“Oh, it’s just that I have something to give you.”
“You mean something to give?”
Elric nodded and placed several booklets on the desk.
And then he pushed the two people in front.
“Check it.”
“… .”
Brian and Ate each held a booklet and looked at its contents.
Palak, Palak.
Each time the pages were turned, their eyes filled with astonishment.
“Lord, lord! “Where on earth did you get something like this?!”
Brian asked, looking at the book and Elric in turn, as if he couldn’t believe it even after seeing it in person.
“how is it? “Isn’t it amazing?”
Elric smiled proudly.
“Words cannot describe how amazing it is! “Isn’t this technology several steps ahead of modern magic engineering technology?”
Brian could tell this just by scanning the contents of the booklet.
If you used these properly, you would have a tremendous weapon in your hands.
So much so that it is difficult for anyone to even think of crossing the eastern part.
So it was natural for him to be excited.
“I guess so. Because that is the legacy of the old Mervinger.”
“… !”
What Elric gave was the vision of summer, Mirka.
