Episode 112. Downfall.
“You have a close relationship with my sister?”
Clark, one of the five generals, raised his chest with a dignified expression and answered.
“That’s right. We also contributed to the Monestier incident that occurred in Legion. As Lord Verdin knows, we are moving for peace on the continent.”
I felt a little anger at Clark’s shamelessness, but then I realized the purpose of his visit and a smile appeared on my face.
“okay.”
Wendy, who followed him, had her eyes focused directly on the carriage. Inside there were two assassins who had been captured in the previous battle.
‘That’s fun.’
This is probably why my father was in a hurry to conquer the continent. If it weren’t for Katarina, Strange wouldn’t have been seen this easily.
“Anyway, where are you going with so many troops?”
Clark continued speaking as he looked at the people following the unit.
“It looks as if they are taking refuge.”
That’s why so many people hurriedly packed their bags and moved. In his eyes, it might look like he’s taking refuge.
“you’re right.”
“That’s right?”
“Yes, the war will start soon.”
I pretended not to notice and glanced at him.
Since they exist to balance power, they must have heard all the news through the Pope’s Office.
“Are you talking about Glaser?”
As expected, Glaser’s name comes up right away. He did not seem to have any hostility, as he did not hide his information.
“yes.”
“Why?”
“We would like to ask Glazer about that. “How dare you fight with us.”
Clark glanced at Wendy and cautiously continued his question.
“Are you saying Glazer wanted war first?”
“Lord Clark. “If you’re a general, you probably already know all about these incidents, right?”
“… … .”
“I won’t need to explain it at length. However, we have no intention of backing down against the Glazers. “If they want a fight, I’ll take it.”
However, until we figured out Rothschild’s movements, we had to use a slash-and-burn strategy like Kaipa said.
“If you don’t want to, you can stop preparing for war right now.”
Kaipa, who was listening to the conversation between the two of us, cleared his throat and pointed ahead.
“Matriarch, we will be entering the castle soon.”
What he meant was whether it would be okay to bring the general into the territory of Strange’s main family.
There was an implicit rule that from here on, it was okay to cut down all unauthorized people.
“Thank you for letting me know, Sir Kaipa.”
Clark rolled his eyes and looked back and forth between me and Kaipa.
“house owner? “Did Lord Verdin become Strange’s matriarch?”
“That’s right.”
“What about Marquis Royce?”
“He passed away.”
“yes?!”
Does he really not know, or is he trying to hide his information? Judging by the fact that he didn’t hesitate to talk to Glazer earlier, it doesn’t seem like he’s trying to deceive.
“The fact that he died is still confidential.”
“So, Glazer also found out about this and is planning to attack Strange?”
“Maybe. “There are many other reasons, but I think it would be difficult to tell you all.”
I said, speeding up my speech and moving away from him.
Tap, tap, tap.
“Now please go back. “We are busy preparing for war-”
Clark nodded briefly, then walked away and raised his voice.
“I’ll see you again when I get the chance!”
“Yes, please tell Albus.”
“… … ?!”
“If a joke goes too far, it can also become a sin.”
* * *
Clark washed his face by splashing in the lake water.
“Damn you, you knew everything and you played with us!”
Wendy answered, fiddling with the flower petals that had risen to the height of her head.
“So, even if I just fight once, I’ll take back Numbers.”
“If we do that, we might get hurt.”
“Well, that Kaipa guy is wary of us.”
“Kaipa? “You mean that old man?”
“huh. Ah, if we fight, we’ll win at least Kaifa. Just like you said, Verdin is with you… .”
The operation completely failed.
The two underestimated Verdin too much.
Clark blinked, rubbed his face with his palm and took a deep breath.
Phew-
“I don’t know what to do with the Numbers guys.”
“It would be a complete shame if things went on like this. I also missed Cynthia and Alfredo… .”

“Wasn’t that inevitable? “The Omangseong guys have decided to turn against us, so what can we do?”
“Yes, but-”
“This is all Albus’ fault. Oh Mangseong turned away from us and lost Cynthia and Alfredo. “The Numbers guys were captured by Verdin and became a cause for war.”
How can I avoid this situation? Clark and Wendy thought deeply for a long time, but could not find an answer.
Moreover, since Verdin openly issued a warning to Albus, he had to move more cautiously from now on.
“Wendy, I will remain in the south and keep track of Strange’s movements. “You go back to the Papal Palace and tell Albus about this.”
Wendy bit her nails with a nervous expression.
“If you get caught, you won’t leave me alone, right?”
“No, even Strange can’t take on all of us at the same time. “Not only are Gunther and Hysteria gone, but Lois is gone too.”
“Clarke… . “I told you, Strange still has Valentine left.”
“so?”
“No matter how thoroughly we prepared, we should never underestimate them.”
Clark hit the ground with his fist.
bang!
“Do you think I’m looking down on them?”
“… When did I say that? I’m telling you this just in case. By the way, kill that temper.”
“Go find Albus loudly and quickly and tell him. and… . “Don’t forget to say that we really need him this time.”
“That guy?”
“There is a guy who came to Jangseong later than me. “He doesn’t show his face so much that his name is vague.”
“ah!”
“Tell them to join us no matter what. “We don’t have to worry about that guy, because we listened closely to what Albus said.”

‘Midgard’ is called the road leading to the sky between the central and northern parts of the continent.
And a country that can only be entered through a huge tree called Yggdrasil that extends above it.
‘Ragnarok.’
A palace built on land using the branches of Yggdrasil, which extends in all directions above the clouds.
Strange’s delegation arrived in Rothschild territory. They sent knights with the minimum number of people and only basic weapons.
“Rothschild should welcome Strange’s envoy according to custom.”
The knight with the golden lion, Rothschild’s emblem, engraved on his chest snorted.
“custom? “How can those who entered Ragnarok without permission question customs?”
“permission? I said I was definitely Strange’s emissary. “How can you go through such a process?”
“No matter how strange you are, if you come to meet the children of God, you must go through the appropriate rituals.”
“… … .”
“How can you talk about customs and ignore our rituals?”
When Strange’s envoy was defeated in the argument, Rothschild’s guard captain, who had been listening to the story behind him, took a trick and continued the conversation.
“Then let’s do it this way. Everyone except the envoys should wait here. “If you go into the palace alone, I will ask for permission to let you in.”
The knight who came as Strange’s envoy hesitated for a moment. The white castle before his eyes seemed too dangerous to enter the enemy camp alone.
“All right.”
There was no way.
In any case, he had to deliver the letter he received from the head of the family.
After finishing their conversation, they headed straight to Rothschild’s palace. Everywhere they walked, knights in white armor with golden lions on them were aiming their spears.
If they did even the slightest bit of nonsense, they would be killed immediately. They did not convey this in words, but expressed it through actions.
“No matter how much I am an outsider, I don’t think there is a need to raise our guard like this.”
“Please understand. “An assassin broke in not long ago.”
“assassin?”
“Yes, oh and-. When you enter the palace, be sure to know this one thing.”
“What do you mean?”
“It is a lack of ability for someone who arrives as an envoy to not even know the identity of the other person.”
“… … .”
“Once you enter the palace, there will be no one lower than you, so please be polite to everyone you meet.”
The knight who came as Strange’s envoy nodded briefly. As a member of Strange’s noble family, he had never been treated like this anywhere on the continent.
‘I never thought I would be ignored like this.’
He was astonished by Rothschild’s treatment, but his thoughts changed the moment he entered the palace.
“Well, isn’t the author Count Gerard?!”
Although they are not from a family that boasts as much majesty as Strange, they are still called a family of spear masters in the West and are quite powerful knights.
Count Gerard was crawling on the ground on all fours, wearing shabby clothes like a slave.
The way it was dragged around with a leash around its neck like a dog made it look like a pet.
“Walk straight, you bastard!”
A boy with long red hair kicked Count Gerard’s butt.
Pop!
“Keuheuk!”
“I brought this because I heard it was a useful toy. “It hasn’t even been a week yet, but you can’t walk properly?”
Strange’s envoy swallowed his saliva with a stern expression. Who on earth is that boy, treating Count Gerard like that?
The guard captain looked at him and bowed his head deeply.
“Asabrag, a delegation from Strange has arrived.”
The boy called Asabrag frowned, then looked at Strange’s envoy and answered with a wide smile.
“Strange?”
“Yes, I’ve come to deliver a letter written by the head of the family.”
“letter? To me?”
“That’s right.”
Strange’s envoy made eye contact with Asabrag and at the same time unconsciously got down on one knee.
dump.
“I meet you, Asabrag.”
To become the head of the Rothschild family at such a young age. The envoy compared this with Verdin in his head without realizing it.
“So, Verdin sent me a letter?”
Verdin’s name came up, not Royce’s. So, does Asabrag know everything about Strange’s situation?
The envoy’s mind was confused, but he answered with a nonchalant expression.
“That’s right.”
“Give it to me.”
“… yes?”
“Ask for a letter.”
Asabrag stretched out his hand.
When the envoy carefully reached into his bosom and took out the letter, the guard captain accepted it on his behalf and recited what was written in it.
“There can’t be two suns under the same sky, so I guess one isn’t needed on this earth…” . “It says.”
Asabrag raised his eyebrows.
“It’s fun, it’s fun. “You mean Verdin sent this?”
Strange’s envoy looked at me and nodded briefly.
“That’s right.”
“Well, we’re starting off knowing each other anyway, so was there a need to say something so grandiose?”
“… … .”
“Go and tell Verdin. “I understood very well what was being said, and it was to prove the power and value of my, that is, Rothschild’s existence.”
Sigh-
Asabrag pulled out the sword from his belt.
“I will turn this boring world upside down.”
Flutter!
Count Gerard’s head was dropped.
“Soon, I will create a world where the entire continent will praise me. “The emperor should also wipe his neck and wait.”
