Episode 236. Cogwheel.
Someone opened the door to the room where Carol and the alarm were and came in. The person who appeared with a loud voice was none other than the third prince, Proslov.
He stood in front of Carol and Alam with a scary expression and spoke.
“We are currently going to catch the rebels and Belayst.”
A very decisive attitude.
Of course, the three of them had already gathered at the palace to follow Loki, but I never thought they would make a decision so quickly.
Alam stuttered in response to his command.
“Ho, by any chance have you not seen Amon?”
“Amon? What is it.”
“The first emperor and ancestor of our Rockefeller family-”
“Okay, so don’t be weird and get your weapons right away. “I will personally command the unit, so make sure you know that.”
Alam looked at Carol with an embarrassed expression. Carol also stood up, waving her cigarette pipe in the air as if she had something to say to him.
“Brother, I understand your desire to move quickly. “Wouldn’t it be right to give operational orders to the commanders of each unit and then lead the units?”
“No, I’m going now.”
“If you move quickly, you may get hit by the belayist. “You know better than us, but he has a power that cannot be underestimated.”
“I will return tonight to decapitate the beleist who fell for the devil’s trick.”
“You mean the devil?”
“That guy has now fallen into the devil’s temptation and launched a rebellion against Brother Loki. If we don’t quickly suppress it, the entire capital will turn into a sea of fire.”
Proslov pushed the two princes without mercy.
Carol, who guessed that what she said wouldn’t make sense anyway, gave up on the conversation and decided to follow his opinion.
Alam, who decided to follow Amon’s orders, expressed his opinion until the end and tried to block the plan.
“I will go see Brother Beleist. “Please wait a moment until then.”
Alarm should have stopped the conversation here. Prosloff, who was listening to his story, looked uncomfortable, but let’s continue the story.
“Anyway, it doesn’t really matter to us who sits on the throne, Brother Loki or Brother Beleist, right?”
“That’s the problem with you, Alarm.”
“My father also said this when he was alive. “If a prince’s tongue is too long, he won’t be able to survive here.”
“What do you mean-”
Proslov’s fist flew so fast that it was invisible and struck Alam in the abdomen.
An elephant holding an ax in both hands, illuminated behind him, was smiling happily.
Alam collided with the wall and rolled to the ground. Proslov looked down at the unconscious man and whispered softly.
“Karol, do you also have the same opinion as this guy?”
Carol twitched the corners of her mouth slightly and answered quietly.
“That’s a good answer.”
“Anyway, what was the purpose of the alarm? “Brother Loki will not remain silent when there is a fight between brothers within the palace.”
“Does not matter. “If I’m going to be punished for this, I’ll take care of everything.”
“Are you sure you’re okay?”
“Yes, brother, you will understand. “Alam, like Belayst, also fell into the devil’s trick.”
Carol wanted to ask about the devil, but didn’t bring up the topic. For now, we just have to wait until he calms down.
The conversation comes next.
Whatever the story was.
“I understand, brother. Then, our unit will immediately prepare for sortie.”
Before Proslov went to meet the two brothers, Alam and Karol. I got to talk with Strange’s knight, Verdin, who came to my room.
No matter how prestigious a noble was, there had never been anyone who broke into the palace like this.
Even though Froslov knew his identity, he did not know how he would risk his life like this.
Because the person who throws his sword at the royal capital could turn the entire continent into an enemy.
Verdin, who thought he had come to kill him, told an unexpected story. The devil who came out of the tower is doing everything he can to devour this kingdom.
“If it’s false, you can kill me right here and now.”
The determination in his eyes did not falter one bit. In this situation, in order to fight against the devil, Proslov must step forward and help Loki.
Verdin informed these facts and also mentioned the traitors within the palace.
“There must be someone in the palace who is in league with the devil. A guy like that would have the same goals as Belayst.”
“What is that?”
“I think you will know without me having to say it. “Don’t you know what will happen if Beleist succeeds in the rebellion here?”
“There is only one reason I came here. “Because I thought that the only person who could change this situation was Proslov.”
Proslov rested his chin and thought for a while, then pointed his ax at Verdin and said:
“They say you are the god of the sword.”
“I don’t know whose review it is, but I won’t deny it.”
“Then can you show me the Sword of God just once?”
Verdin knew.
That he would create this situation. This is because the story was told in the same way in his previous life.
Proslov does not trust the words of those weaker than him. No, he doesn’t listen anymore, so he’s been having these confrontations all the time.
This is probably a routine procedure that you have created yourself. Verdin did not refuse and responded by pulling a short dagger from his belt.
“Weakly, strongly. Would you like to choose one of the two?”
Proslope chuckled, took a step back, and answered.
“strongly.”
The conversation stopped and silence fell between the two. This is a situation where the winner may be decided depending on who moves first.
Verdin didn’t even use his auror or mana and just waited for him to come with his dagger.
As tens of seconds passed, sweat began to flow from Prosloff’s forehead.
This is a situation where you can tell who has the upper hand even without a direct confrontation. If you do something wrong, you could face death.

This is actual combat, not training or practice. While these thoughts were slowly taking over Proslope’s mind.
Verdin moved first.
He, who had not entered the room by the window, was suddenly holding Proslov’s back and pointing a dagger at his neck.
His skills, which he did not hide, were truly surprising. He just thought he was running behind him quickly, but the handle of the ax the professional sloper was holding had already been scratched by the blade, leaving dozens of wounds.
Proslope looked at his trembling hands and let out a hearty laugh.
Verdin smiled slightly, stepped back, and answered.
“Do you like it?”
“Yes, with this level of skill, you can definitely be called a Sword God. Needless to say, he’s stronger than me.”
“That’s too much praise.”
“… Anyway, now I know that what you said is true. “I see that even though he had that much power, he didn’t kill me.”
“How could I want to harm the prince?”
“Yes, but if you want, you can kill not only me but all the princes in the palace, right?”
Verdin did not deny it but answered with his head down.
“As expected, if Master Vileist takes the throne, everyone currently in the palace will die.”
“I think so too.”
“To prevent such a thing from happening, we have no choice but to deal with those who have fallen into the devil’s trick right away, so brothers, please check this as well.”
“I get it. You don’t have to say any more. “Let me find out about him.”
“You should not make hasty judgments, but I ask you to speed up this matter. “If the rebels start moving first, it will be too late.”
After saying these words, Verdin slowly approached the window and jumped outside just in time for the wind to blow and shake the curtains.
Prosloff stared blankly at the window, then burst into laughter and monologued.
“Strange is really fun.”
The entire Legion was devastated. A black-skinned dragon suddenly appeared above the clouds.
And two unidentified adventurers jumped off his back. They unleashed incredibly powerful auras and engaged in a bloody battle against Gregory, Rox, and Cynthia.
‘The loser will lose his life.’
This was a very primal desire and fear that made those who entered the battlefield yearn for victory.
The outcome of this fight was decided before it even began. The three apostles called Numbers, and the one supporting them was Ordin, the current owner of the tower.
Qarring.
“Kill them all.”
With Ordin’s appearance, countless thunderbolts fell from the sky, and the ground began to shake as if there had been an earthquake.
Gregory’s goblin unit and Rox’s subordinates, who could not withstand this, were instantly destroyed.
The full-scale fight had not even begun, but most of the force was gone.
Gregory gritted his teeth as he looked at Ordin with an arrogant expression visible through the clouds.
Not only that, but Rox, who was next to him, also shouted at Ordin, as if he could not control his boiling anger.
“If you want to fight, come down and fight, you bastard!”
But their shouts were meaningless. This was because, let alone stimulating Ordin, it was difficult to block the three Numbers who were facing him earlier.
As the battle dragged on, the outcome of the battle began to be reflected in everyone’s minds.
‘I need Verdin’s help.’
However, time is running out to call him, and in order to use the divine beast Gridori, you have to go to where he is.
Rox, who was dealing with Numbers, did not have that kind of luxury. Rather, if the location of Verdin’s hidden divine beast is discovered, the situation could become even bigger.
Rox wiped his bloody face with his palm and looked around.
‘What should we do to turn this situation around without Verdin?’
There’s no answer.
All you have to do is get lucky.
With these thoughts in mind, Rox gave an order to one of his subordinates. He is now a standby outside the Legion, but he vows that he can turn this situation around if he succeeds.
His earnestness produced great results. A divine beast hidden under Verdin’s influence. Not Gregory, but a creature with even greater strength.
Divine Beast Fenrir.
The guy finally woke up.
“… Fenrir, kill that little lizard!”
