52.
“I hid in the mountains. “We tracked him down on horseback to where he went, but his whereabouts are unknown since then.”
Alfonso clicked his tongue at the guard captain’s words. It was a long-awaited day off, but I wasn’t in a good mood after climbing the mountain in bad weather.
“Is it possible to track it?”
When I ask the newly recruited rangers, they nod their heads.
“The weather is so rough.”
“It’s okay because I’m used to it.”
“It’s reliable.”
The rangers quickly dispersed. The soldiers then formed groups and moved. I was planning to search the mountain from now on. It might not be easy as the mountain is large and rugged, but the traitor could not be missed.
‘There must be so much that comes with it.’
So, you move even though you know it is a dangerous path. Although there are suspicions of treason, the opponent is a member of the Devine family. They had the power to actually cause a rebellion. It is said that because of this, most nobles closed their eyes and blocked their ears. It was said that they either observed the situation or secretly hired mercenaries instead of directly stepping forward.
In such a situation, the Lord of Sorbitol decided to step forward himself. The territory was difficult enough to not be able to calculate other variables or situations right away. Naturally, the knights who were vassals had no choice but to move.
Leaving one knight behind for command, the remaining two also moved.
The rain has stopped. Richt and Van, who put back on their wet clothes, left the cave. The swollen river remained the same, but it was easier to move around because there was no rain. This time, Ban came forward to carry Licht on his back.
“later.”
This time I didn’t just refuse. Because I became fully aware of my poor physical strength. In any case, it is better to carry it on its back. When I explained it to him, he stopped recommending it to me. After walking like that for a while, Ban suddenly turned around and pulled Richt towards him.
“Come out.”
Two men came out from the rock behind at the sound of a cold voice.
“You’re quick to notice.”
Looking at his outfit, he looked like a ranger. I thought I ran away pretty hard, but I was already being chased. Ban turned Licht onto his back and raised his sword. Despite this, the ranger only smiled slyly and did not look nervous.
“You were the driver.”
“This is difficult. “We’re not good enough to beat the driver.”
Then he slowly walked forward. Richt, seeing this, realized that they were hiding something. They probably have someone who uses a bow hidden somewhere. And that prediction turned out to be correct.
There were four rangers who discovered them in the first place. One of them ran out to collect the others, and the two stepped forward. The last remaining one took a bow and climbed up a nearby tree.
“Would you mind holding me obediently? Then I won’t hurt you.”
At the same time, an arrow flew out and hit the ground right in front of him.
“My child is better at using a sword than an arrow. “It’s a long shot, so if you make a mistake, it might get stuck somewhere in your body.”
It was a clear threat. Even though Ban was gritting his teeth, he couldn’t easily move forward. He was worried that if he moved, Richt would get hit by the arrow.
“It’s okay, fight.”
Richt pushed Ban’s back.
“It’s dangerous.”
“It’s not dangerous.”
That is just a verbal threat. The person who placed the bounty on him was Abel. If he offered a bounty, the conditions were obvious. Ensure Richt’s safety. Something like that will be at stake. It would be difficult if you got hurt by someone’s blind sword or arrow. You have to be a very skilled person to properly injure and capture this fragile body.
It’s not like Abel wouldn’t have thought of that either.
While my body was staggering because of that, the next arrow flew out. Because the body was tilted, it seemed difficult to avoid properly. Ban grabbed Licht and hugged him. And as my body tilted, I fell down the waterfall.
[Roaring!]
My ears were deafened by the loud sound of water. Then, cold water surrounded my body. I tried to struggle, but my body couldn’t come up easily. It’s a big deal. Richt grabbed the hem of his class’s clothes, trying to keep his fading spirit.
The ranger dropped his bow.
“Is he dead?”
Since you fell down from the waterfall in this condition, the chances of being safe are low. Only then did he realize what he had done and his body trembled.
killed a nobleman There is a bounty on him for treason, but the condition is that he must not be harmed in the slightest.
“It must be a battle of influence within the imperial family. “I don’t think they’re really trying to accuse him of treason.”
The now dead captain said:
“You must never hurt me. “The opponent is Devine.”
“What if I accidentally hurt you?”
“Should I think he’s dead?”
The captain then chuckled. Reese gritted his teeth and stood there, then looked at the sky. He remembered his cry at the end telling him to run. So he couldn’t die here. He picked up his dropped bow and left the waterfall.
It was to live.
The two of them arrived late and looked down at the waterfall where Reese disappeared.
“beautiful!”
Lu immediately called his spirit. Ar understood Lu’s meaning without having to say it for a long time. She just jumped into the waterfall.
“are you okay. “I’m not dead yet.”
Jin said with a pale face.
“calm down. Ar will find it.”
It’s been a while since I jumped into Arga Falls. But there was no news. How much longer has it been? Ar burst out from under the waterfall.
[doesn’t exist!]
“No?”
[Yes, none.]
“nothing?”
[huh. Richt’s body was not found.]
First of all, I’m relieved because it doesn’t seem like he’s dead. But on the other hand, a question arose. Meanwhile, where has Richt disappeared to?
Lu bit his lip and spoke to Jin.
“Let’s release the wind spirits.”
“why?”
“It would be nice if there were more people looking for it.”
“And then you run away.”
“You just have to make the spirit’s promise.”
It is a promise made with mana, and if you break it after making it, your status will be lowered. It was said that small spirits could disappear.
