Episode 132. The West Wind.
Meyer de Rothschild.
This is an article with a name I have never heard of before. If you have Rothschild’s name, you may have heard it somewhere.
‘Who is it?’
A balding middle-aged man armed with full plate mail. He stepped in front of Verdandi, wiping down his brown mustache.
[That knight is one of Rothschild’s knights who climbed the tower with me.]
‘To the tower with your father?’
[He joined on the recommendation of Matteo Ricci.]
‘?!’
[He was said to be Matteo Ricci’s disciple, and his sword handling skills were so great that they could be compared to our own Strange.]
I had a hard time believing what my father said. There is a swordsman that he recognizes as having reached the level of a swordsman.
“Was his swordsmanship better than Matteo Ricci’s?”
[The superiority between the two is unknown.]
[However, I could tell that it was not at a higher level than me.]
“Why did you think that?”
As if my father’s spirit was right in front of me, white smoke gathered together and a soft voice came out.
[Because his sword could not reach me.]
“To your father?”
[Yes, the reason he followed me to the tower was revenge on Strange.]
‘Revenge against Strange, this is the same reason Matteo Ricci targeted my father and me.’
[Of course, thanks to the defense of the guardian knights protecting me, his sword never touched me.]
[Still, I succeeded in striking a sword within my territory. I had no choice but to acknowledge him.]
I nodded slightly.
Just from his father’s explanation, I was able to understand the extent of his skills.
Although he was capable of demonstrating his skills within his domain, in the end the sword could not reach his father.
However, the reason was because the guardian knights protecting my father reacted first.
‘then.’
That means that if he can swing a sword between them, he has at least the same 7-star skill as Beth.
Before I could answer the question, Mayer came in front of my mother with his back to me.
“nice to see you. “My name is Mayer de Rothschild, commander of the Rothschild family’s guard, and I have come to deliver the message of Apostle Ordin.”
Verdandi shook his head with a frightened expression.
“W, did you know where this was?”
“That’s Strange Castle.”
“Are you asking because I don’t know that? “I told you this because it’s a place you shouldn’t come to.”
“Why are you saying I can’t come? “I also have a deep connection with Strange, having climbed the tower together with Lois.”
“A Rothschild knight climbed the tower with you, Lois?”
“Yes, we were together aiming for his head. “If I were to just tell you the result, it was a failure.”
“… what?!”
When she raised her voice, baby Verdin burst into tears.
“crying!”
Everyone’s eyes were on Verdin.
Verdandi said to Mayer while holding the baby in her arms and lightly patting its back.
“Get out of here right now. Or I’ll tell Lois.”
“Marquis de Royce? “He shouldn’t be in this castle right now.”
“what?”
“Besides, there is no one in this castle who can protect you right now. So please follow me quietly, if you don’t obey me-”
Mayer looked down and looked at Verdin.
“I have no choice but to kill that child.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Valentine attacked.
Flutter!
Her sword went through Mayer’s armor. No matter how young she is, she is Strange’s direct swordsman.
Pop!
But she was no match.
Of course, he had superior skills than his peers, but he was far from enough to deal with skilled upper-level knights.
Mayer grabbed the sword stuck at his side with his left hand, and grabbed Valentine’s collar with his right and lifted it up.
“Valentine, I’m sorry, but I think you’ll have to stay out of this.”
“paddle… . Let go of this damn guy… .”
“I will let you go. “Just stay away for a little while until the work is finished.”
Meyer threw Valentine out the window. Not only was there no hesitation in his actions, but he also had no hesitation in carrying out his will.
Wow!
“Berdandi, please choose. If you come with me, we can save that baby. If you resist going, you will both die here.”
“Is this what Ordin ordered you to do?”
“That’s right. God’s Blood, the one who continues the pure bloodline of God, created a child in a place like this, not Ragnarok. Wouldn’t he be upset?”
“… … .”
“To be honest, I was ordered to kill that baby too. “If you follow me obediently, I will pretend not to see you.”
“You said to kill the baby?”
“Yeah, I don’t know if it’s a guy or a bitch. “Because he is a guy who should not have been born in this world.”
Verdandi’s face turned red and blood appeared on his forehead.

But there was nothing she could do. If we resist like this, Verdin’s life is in danger. While Lois is away, there is no one in this castle who can help her.
I don’t know how the author got through the guardian knights and got here, but it was clear that this situation was a crisis.
“You mean, as long as I follow along, this child will be saved?”
Mayer smiled slightly and nodded.
“That’s right.”
“Why is Ordin looking for me?”
“Didn’t I tell you a little while ago? “It’s to protect you, a pureblood.”
“Pure bloodlines will freeze to death. “I was just born in a slightly higher place.”
“That difference separates the masters and people of this world. “You are not someone who is looking up from the bottom, but someone who is looking down from the top.”
“I never wanted that position.”
“It doesn’t matter if you want it or not. “What matters is that you were born that way.”
Verdandi bit her lip and hugged the baby tightly.
“… Verdin.”
She gently stroked the baby’s head, placed it on the bed, and whispered softly.
“My beloved son.”
Then, Verdandi clenched his fists.
“Lois will not leave you alone.”
“What if you could? “Lois won’t even be able to reach where Ordin is anyway.”
“what?”
“I told you in advance that the place you will arrive is the upper level of the tower, a country that no human has ever reached.”
“A country?”
“Yes, so don’t have any hope that the Marquis Royce will come to rescue you.”
Mayer continued speaking with a sly expression and a polite attitude, holding out one hand to her.
“Just think he’s dead and go. I will pass it on to Lois. “It is said that Verdandi received the will of the Holy One and went to a far away place.”
[This is all I know about your mother’s whereabouts.]
Suddenly, the space became distorted and the scene changed to the entrance of the castle.
There, Valentine, covered in blood who had fallen from the window, and Beth, the head of the Guardian Knight, were having a conversation.
“Well, how are you, Valentine?”
Guardian Knight Commander Beth raised her head and saw a room with a broken window.
When he gave a signal by extending two fingers forward instead of his mouth, the guardian knights who were guarding his side simultaneously ran up toward Verdandi’s room.
“mother… . mother… . Apostle… . To the knight… .”
She couldn’t finish her sentence and lost consciousness.
‘maybe.’
At this time, that guy named Mayer seems to have used a special ability. The current Valentine said she had no memory of that day.
‘then.’
The key figure of the day was none other than Rothschild’s ‘Mayer’.
Sreuk.
After hearing Valentine’s words, Beth drew her sword.
“The apostle broke into the castle.”
He misunderstood Valentine’s words, but clearly found out that there was an enemy in Verdandi’s room.
“Declare ‘Throne Shield’ status within the castle and attack immediately when enemies are discovered.”
Beth continued, raising her voice as if she were yelling at her lieutenant.
“The 1st platoon should head to Verdandi’s room with me! The 2nd Platoon spreads the situation within the unit! “The 3rd Platoon must prepare for defense!”
The Grand Bell at the top of Strange Castle cried loudly.
Great love! Great love! Great love!
The knights within the castle moved quickly and entered a state of war along with a defensive stance.
Beth, who arrived at Verdandi’s room in such a hurry, did not hide her power and revealed it fully.
‘We must protect Verdandi at all costs.’
That is the mission of I, Beth, the guardian sword that protects Strange.
He entered Verdandi’s room, prepared to die before the battle with the apostle. However, what faced him was an empty room, with curtains blowing from the wind coming in through the window.
“Mr. Verdandi?”
Beth and his men searched the room. However, the only trace that remained was Verdandi’s severed hair.
‘Why is my mother’s hair… ?’
[This is the end of the ‘time of memory’ that I know of.]
[Unfortunately, on that day, he was away after being called by an apostle, and this absurd incident ended up happening.]
This is absolutely not my father’s problem. If that’s the case, I can’t take my eyes off it even for a moment.
[If I had been with Verdandi that day, this would never have happened.]
I answered my father in a firm voice.
“This is not your fault, father.”
[After losing Verdandi, I headed to the tower to find her somehow.]
“father.”
[But the result, as you know, was that instead of finding Verdandi’s whereabouts, he spent time stuck in the middle layer.]
“So you still don’t know where your mother is?”
[Know. However, those who knew the way to get there did not cooperate with me.]
“Who are they?”
My father did not answer with his mouth. He just opened a small space in his dream and showed it to me.
‘… no way.’
A white dwarf perched above the towering World Tree, Yggdrasil.
A country where those who are called children of God live.
‘Ragnarok’
[Please take care of your mother. Verdin, the proud son of Lois.]
With these words, light poured down before my eyes.
Ssssssssssssssssshhhh!
“father.”
* * *
“Where are you coming in without permission?”
When I opened my eyes to someone’s shout, I found myself back in Midgard. The blue sky spreads high and the grasslands stretch endlessly.
‘Was it a dream?’
No, this is an illusion shown by the guardian spirit of the family. It must be a memory of our ancestors that is deeply embedded in my mind.
I had a headache and my head was dizzy.
When I raised my upper body, Theresia was blocking my path with her arms outstretched.
“Well, we just came to see someone here!”
“You came to meet me? who?”
“that… . I don’t know either… .”
Clunk, clank, clank.
A knight with a golden lion on his armor approached with the sound of his boots, and strongly pulled Theresia by the collar.
“Is this bitch kidding me?!”
“Aaaah!”
“I guess it won’t work. “I have to cut off both of my bitch’s arms and bring her to her senses-”
Flutter!
“… huh?”
The knight lowered his head and looked at his own abdomen. As far as I could see, the blade that had pierced the armor was dripping blood.’
He slowly turned his head back and looked at his back. Then, the driver who made eye contact with me tilted his head.
“who… . nine?”
“You don’t need to know who I am.”
After I pulled out the sword stuck in his back.
Flutter.
“Kuhuhuhuh!”
He grabbed the knight’s head, dragged him back, and pointed his sword at his neck.
“You guys, if you want to save this guy, call a knight named Mayer.”
