The Northern Grand Duke’s Crazy Son-in-Law Episode 130
New problem
“Are you really thinking of joining the special forces and the Demon Realm?”
Adrianna’s aide Lunavirn asked in a low voice.
Adrianna nodded.
“The Demon Realm is a difficult place even for direct unit members. Even the last time in the Demon Realm, didn’t a high-level demon appear? It’s dangerous to go to a place like that with a special force.”
Lunavirn spoke in a stern voice.
The Demon Realm was a dangerous place even for Adrianna’s direct unit. It was quite dangerous to go to the Demon Realm with the newly established special forces.
It was a natural reaction. That’s why Adrianna was worried too.
However, Adrianna knew that the special forces were not to be trifled with.
together-.
“Captain Galahad will go with you. It’s okay.”
Galahad captured the ruler, a high-ranking demon. He was not a demon and was with the First, but his power was guaranteed.
“Um······If it’s Captain Galahad···.”
Lunavirn muttered at the mention of Galahad’s name. A look of disgust appeared on Lunavirn’s face.
It was because Galahad was seen laughing and taking the ruler’s blood, and after that, strange rumors about Galahad began to spread.
There was a story about drinking the blood of the demons instead of water. Because of that, he was reluctant to do anything about Galahad.
“······I understand. But why is Captain Galahad going with you?”
“He said he was going to find a clue about the king of the demon tribe.”
There was a moment of silence. Lunavirn’s face instantly hardened. Her eyes, which were always warm when she looked at Adrianna, became cold and revealed a clear sense of discomfort.
“There is no such thing as a king of the demon tribe. How can you say such a strange thing? That guy is not normal.”
Lunavirn, who had always been on Adrianna’s side, erupted in fierce opposition.
That fierce denial was rather a proof of existence.
Proof that there really is a demon king who oppresses the humans of the entire continent.
Adrianna’s eyes wavered. Fear of the unknown oppression rose.
Adrianna nodded. Only then did Lunavirn’s face relax.
“We will increase the number of direct units compared to usual.”
Luna Birn continued speaking as if nothing had happened.
Adriana felt a deep sense of helplessness at that.
‘Has this been his whole life?’
It was quite a horrifying experience to have the existence of a planned doom denied by everyone.
But this for the rest of my life-.
At that moment, the carriage stopped. The door opened, and Galahad smiled leisurely.
“Would you like to have lunch together? Tom made some stew.”
That leisurely laugh was amazing. How could he laugh like that?
at that time-.
“Adrianna!!”
A loud noise was heard from one side. Galahad turned his head and his laughter stopped.
“I guess something happened.”
Galahad stepped back slightly.
There was a mangled soldier there.
“The 1st Battalion has been attacked!”
Adrianna’s eyebrows furrowed.
****
‘It’s a raid.’
Galahad quietly shook off the tobacco.
The 1st Battalion was larger than the other battalions, one and a half to two times larger.
Moreover, the level of armament and the quality of the soldiers were superior to other units. They were the elite among the excellent soldiers of the North.
The atmosphere in the 1st Battalion was ominous. Flames were rising from everywhere and screams could be heard.
Anyone could see that it looked like they had been attacked.
“There was an attack by the demons at dawn.”
Gilbert reported, narrowing his eyes.
“This morning?”
“Yes, the demons attacked the gate at dawn. There was a small crack in the gate, and the demons and the demons came in through it.”
Gilbutton pointed to the back. There were stern-looking soldiers milling about busily.
The gate I saw last time had several layers of defense. I couldn’t understand how such a gate could be breached.
“It didn’t look like a castle gate that would collapse?”
“A spirit demon appeared. Several soldiers around the gate were possessed and went wild, and the gate opened.”
A spirit realm demon-. Galahad’s eyes deepened. Was it a coincidence that a spirit realm demon was knocking on the gate?
“Do these types of attacks happen often?”
“The Demons attack periodically. It’s been a while since we’ve had an attack that would force the gates to open. But Lady Adrianna wasn’t there either···”
Gilbutton continued his report in a humorless voice.
“There is a story that says that the Demon’s territory was not cleaned up because Adrianna was away for a long time. The Demon’s territory is cleaned up even when Adrianna is away, but the amount is different than when Adrianna is there.”
Gilbert explained calmly. He was just relaying what he had heard.
‘It’s because Adrianna is away.’
Galahad muttered the subtle sentence.
Adrianna originally went to the demon realm every day and cleaned up the demons.
With Adrianna out of the way, it was quite reasonable to assume that the demons would pile up and attack.

but-.
“Attacking at dawn on the day Adrianna returns. The timing is quite coincidental.”
“Isn’t that a coincidence?”
“It could be a coincidence. But-.”
Galahad took a deep drag of his cigarette smoke. Gilverton stared intently.
“I don’t believe in coincidences. Coincidence is the shield of those who lack logic.”
“······Then are you saying that someone set it up on purpose?”
“I don’t know yet. If someone set it up, there must be an intention. For example, in this case-.”
Galahad turned his head slightly. Adrianna was receiving reports from the captains. Her usual expressionless face was wavering.
A sharp sense of guilt came to mind.
“You’re going to tell Adrianna. You left this place empty, and this happened. It’s your fault.”
That’s a very classic tactic. Galahad squinted his eyes.
“Why is that Adrianna’s fault?”
Gilbutton asked as if he really didn’t know. His voice was full of sincerity.
“What Adrianna doesn’t know even Sir Gilbert knows.”
Galahad laughed heartily.
Why did they try to tie Adrianna up? It was important to know what Adrianna was originally trying to do.
Adrianna-.
‘He tried to enter the devil’s realm with me.’
That’s what it means to tie up Adrianna like that-.
‘So you’re stopping Adrianna from entering the magic realm.’
Galahad’s eyes deepened.
That meant that Adrianna and I had to get into the Demon Realm as quickly as possible. However, there was a problem.
‘There’s no way Adrianna will go right away.’
It was clear that Adriana would feel guilty about the current situation. In order to move Adriana like that, the problem of the 1st Battalion had to be solved.
‘I guess I can figure it out.’
The conclusion was clear. It was a problem that could be solved faster than they expected. Competence was Galahad’s specialty.
Galahad turned his gaze to Tom, who had already finished preparing.
“Tom, get it ready to go right away. Plenty of it.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Tom answered in a firm voice.
Galahad walked away, shaking off the tobacco. Gilverton followed hurriedly.
“The 1st Battalion is different from other battalions.”
“different?”
“Yes, the 1st Battalion is a unit that revolves around Lady Adrianna. It is a slightly independent unit that is different from the other battalions, although there is a reason why His Highness the Grand Duke did not give orders to do so in the first place.”
“You have a knack for explaining simple things in a difficult way. That’s why you’re a rude unit.”
Gilbert couldn’t help but laugh. Then Gilbert let out a deep sigh.
“That’s why I’m going crazy whenever Lady Adriana gets involved.”
“I’m Adriana’s fiancée, so I’m looked down on, so I have to be careful about how I act?”
“That is correct.”
“Oh, I see. That would be awkward.”
Galahad nodded lightly and turned to Adrianna. Gilverton followed with a soft sigh.
“Adrianna.”
The captains’ heads turned in an instant. Their eyes turned fierce when they saw Galahad.
Galahad stared at Adrianna. Adrianna’s furrowed eyebrows were quite irritating.
“Yes, Captain Galahad.”
“Shall we leave right away?”
“I’m sorry. There’s a problem with the battalion. I think we need to take care of this first.”
Adrianna apologized earnestly. Galahad clicked his tongue openly at her.
It was an expected reaction.
“That’s just like you. I’ll take care of it right away, so get ready to go.”
Galahad spoke in a calm voice. His voice was so calm that the haughty content sounded plain.
“What do you think that guy from another unit knows?”
One of the knights raised his voice. He stepped back slightly from Adrianna’s gaze, but his sharp momentum remained.
“I think I know more than you guys who have opened the gates.”
Galahad provoked calmly.
The company commanders’ mood became tense. The atmosphere seemed as if it would explode at any moment.
‘I told you, scratching people is the best.’
Gilverton sighed, grabbed the hilt of his sword, and stood next to Galahad.
At that moment, Adrianna bowed her head first.
“Okay, thanks for your help.”
Adrianna lowered her head. The atmosphere became more tense. It wouldn’t have been strange if it had exploded.
In that tense atmosphere, Galahad-.
“That’s okay. We’re engaged now. Your unit is just like mine. Let’s leave before the sun sets.”
It was done very coolly.
On the faces of the company commanders who were all wrinkled up-.
‘It’s refreshing.’
Gilbert laughed and grabbed the hilt of his sword.
****
‘This is driving me crazy.’
Carat, a knight belonging to Adrianna’s direct unit, scratched his forehead.
It was because of the leisurely handsome guy in front, Galahad.
Galahad already had a poor reputation in the 1st Battalion. As if that wasn’t enough, Galahad immediately declared that he would find a loophole in the 1st Battalion.
Adrianna gave him a knight named Carat, who was in her direct unit. As a result, Carat had to receive the glares of the other knights.
“Let’s start from the castle gate.”
“Yes, this way.”
Carrot nodded coolly. It was Adrianna’s order, but the person she was dealing with was Captain Galahad.
That Galahad, so famous in the North – was no longer an opponent to be ignored.
Galahad walked with long strides. His strides were so long that Carrot had to move as if he was running.
Although sharp eyes followed him wherever he went, Galahad waved his hand instead.
“This is a total mess.”
Galahad, who had arrived at the gate, spoke calmly.
The gate was still unfinished. The surrounding area was filled with blood and flesh, and corpses were strewn about. It was full of traces of a brutal battle.
Even though-.
‘Do you really have to say it out loud?’
Carat let out a small scream at the stinging gazes she felt from those around her.
“It’s a mental world. It’s too thick.”
At that moment, soldiers blocked Galahad’s path. Galahad looked back at Carat. Carat let out a soft sigh and stepped forward.
“I have permission from Captain Adriana. I am carrying out the orders of His Highness the Grand Duke. Please step aside.”
When I spit out two bold names, the soldiers retreated with their faces wrinkled.
“Thank you.”
Galahad passed by, patting the soldiers on the shoulder.
The gate was a worse mess. Thick pieces of iron were bent, and there were horrible pieces of flesh here and there.
As Galahad was about to investigate the trail, a giant knight stopped him. It was Erdal, the gatekeeper.
“I can’t get any closer.”
“I have received Adriana’s permission, and I am carrying out Her Highness’s orders.”
Galahad said leisurely. However, the opponent was not good.
“The only one who was allowed to pass was Adriana.”
Galahad looked back at Carat.
“There’s nothing I can do. The gatekeeper, Erdal, is a truly upright man.”
“He’s a strong man. He’s the kind of person who would be a gatekeeper. Looking at him like this, he’s also a gatekeeper. Hey Erdal, how long have you been guarding the gate?”
“It’s been over twenty years.”
Erdal answered in a deep voice.
“Oh, that’s great. You’ve been guarding the gates for over twenty years. Have you experienced any inconveniences?”
“None.”
“It’s your calling. It’s a blessing to have found the perfect job early on. Were you guarding the gates during the raid?”
“The gatekeeper never leaves the gate.”
“That’s a long answer. Okay, can you tell me a little bit about what happened at the time?”
Erdal nodded vigorously.
“It was the same as usual. I was guarding the door, and someone stabbed me from behind.”
Erdal pointed to the side. A corpse was lying in the corner of the gate. It was a horrible sight, having been trampled here and there.
“I am a soldier from the platoon guarding the gate.”
“I see, were you two on bad terms to begin with?”
“No, it was good.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes. I drank alcohol sometimes.”
Erdal’s voice was firm. Galahad nodded lightly.
“I see. How did the gate open? It looks complicated.”
“I used an ox. I couldn’t open the whole thing, but I was able to open the heavy gate.”
Galahad snapped his fingers.
“I see. Thank you for answering so honestly.”
“It was nothing.”
“Oh. Can I ask you one more thing?”
Erdal nodded firmly. Galahad asked him lightly as if it were nothing.
“Why did you open the door at dawn this morning?”
Erdal’s movements suddenly stopped.
‘What is that-.’
Erdal was known as a natural gatekeeper because of his stubborn personality. He was a man who would not open the gate even if a knife was put to his throat.
Erdal opened the door like that-.
What the hell is this?
“Answer me. I’m a bit busy, you know.”
Galahad pointed his finger at Erdal. He had nothing in his hand, but a chill rose up his body.
‘What is this all of a sudden······.’
at that time-.
“Don’t insult me.”
“Oh, you don’t remember.”
“I am-.”
“Sir Gilbert, get on your knees.”
Gilbutton moved immediately. Gilbutton’s sword struck Erdal.
Carrot knew Gilbert’s skills. There was no doubt that Gilbert was an excellent knight.
But Gilbert’s sword was much longer than when I had seen it before.
No, to be exact-.
‘It’s become a bit sharper.’
Erdal was a gatekeeper. Not just anyone could be a gatekeeper. A strong spirit was a given, and outstanding skills were essential.
Gilbert easily subdued Erdal.
‘It probably wasn’t to this extent.’
Carat’s eyes widened.
“What are you doing!!”
At that moment, a shout was heard from behind. The knights and soldiers who were clearing the area drew their swords. In an instant, the atmosphere became tense.
It was a situation where the day was still standing in the battle of dawn. There was no need to say anything more, since Galahad had forced his way in and subdued the gatekeeper.
We were surrounded in an instant.
Carat felt dizzy at the sight of sharp swords scattered everywhere.
“Hold on tight, Sir Gilbutton.”
“Yes, stay still!”
The two of them actually seemed oblivious to their surroundings.
The siege was closing in on him.
At that moment, Galahad put his hand on Erdal’s head. The pressure grew stronger as he looked as if he was about to behead him.
‘Galahad must not be touched.’
Carrot stepped forward, muttering a curse.
“You are carrying out His Highness’s orders! Captain Adrianna has given you permission! Everyone, stand down!”
When I shouted proudly, those surrounding me stopped for a moment.
A soft scream erupted from behind. Carrot glanced back at him and couldn’t hold back her curse.
Erdal’s eyes were rolled back. His body was shaking. It was a terrible sight.
“You allowed that?”
Carrot gulped at the sharp question.
at that time-.
“Uncivilized humans! Eat quietly!”
A terrible roar burst from Erdal’s mouth.
The eyes of those who were surrounding them became dizzy. Even the carrots that were blocking them were confused, so what about them?
‘Erdal really got attacked by the demons?’
A heavy silence fell.
“It seems like a spirit demon has entered.”
Galahad said, shaking his hand lightly.
The invasion of the spirit world demons was no easy task. The spirit world demons were the ones who destroyed the platoon without a trace.
In order to find the spirit world demons, I had to interrogate them one by one, but that didn’t mean I could find them.
Now everyone had no choice but to be suspicious of each other.
In the midst of heavy silence and astonishment-.
“Finding the Demon Race-. Sounds fun.”
Galahad laughed alone.
*
“Can you really find the spirit world demons? There must be a considerable number of people involved.”
Gilbert asked with a little concern.
It was nearly impossible to find the spirit demon among this large crowd of people before the sun set.
Of course, it was Galahad, so he had his thoughts, but time was very limited.
“The blood of the Demon Tribe has a high concentration of mana. Ah, Sir Gilbert, so I wouldn’t know if you said it like that.”
Gilverton nodded at Galahad’s words. He didn’t understand.
“To put it simply-.”
Galahad flicked his fingers lightly.
“Just gather everything together and set it on fire. Then call First for follow-up.”
Gilbert couldn’t understand a word.
