26.Rage

The Knight Tournament continued in the same vein thereafter.

Following the black-haired woman and Yu-eun, they won four more times in a row. Even if the Amar side were to win all the remaining matches, Larnaar’s side had already secured six victories, making her the winner.

 

 

In other words, the outcome was already decided at this point.

 

 

“….”

 

 

However, no one cheered or applauded.

Everyone felt it instinctively.

 

“This doesn’t make sense….”

 

 

Yeah.

It doesn’t make sense.

 

 

Let’s say Yu-eun is one thing. And let’s say Yuna, who fought last, is another. They were said to be a mercenary couple, so they must have some skill, and we can just brush it off as hidden masters.

Siesta was originally the vice-captain of the Leizeng Knights, so let’s say that’s that.

 

 

But what about the other three women?

 

Starting with the first woman who fought, they all showed unbelievable skills.

Especially the fifth woman who fought, unlike the other women, knew how to enjoy the fight, and toyed with the ‘Middle’-level expert, gradually cutting off his limbs, and finally his neck.

 

Just a week ago, they were ordinary women, but now they were here as experts with at least Expert-level skills.

 

There wasn’t a fool here who couldn’t sense something was wrong.

 

 

 

 

“Princess Jeonha!!”

 

 

Amar was the same.

 

 

“This doesn’t make sense!!”

 

 

It wasn’t just that he had lost six knights, but if the outcome was confirmed like this, he would lose everything.

So he protested rather strongly.

 

 

“Those bitches were just doing farm work a week ago!! How can they have such skills! They must have used some cowardly trick!!!”

 

Some of the audience nodded.

They didn’t have any proof, but based on their common sense, they thought there must be something going on with Larnaar’s side.

 

 

“….”

 

 

The Princess also seemed to think something was up, and looked deeply troubled.

However, her thoughts were quite different from those of Amar and the audience.

 

 

While they thought Larnaar’s side had used a cowardly trick, she was more concerned with the fundamental question of what it was that had made ordinary women so strong, regardless of whether it was cowardly or not.

 

 

Whatever the method, if she could create Expert-level powerhouses in just a week, she could solve many of the problems facing the Leizeng Kingdom, and as the Princess of this country, she couldn’t just let it pass.

 

 

 

“Amar-jjak…no, not even Baron anymore.”

“Princess Jeonha!!!”

“The same number of knights fought in the same training ground, and the outcome was decided. Besides, you were in a more advantageous situation. Do you understand?”

 

 

The Princess coldly cut him off and declared the victory of Larnaar, the Barony of Leizeng.

Larnaar happily skipped, and Yu-eun and Yuna nodded as if it were natural.

 

“This is…unbelievable!”

 

Amar slumped down.

 

The list he submitted was almost everything he had. From his title to his territory, property, real estate, and so on…literally everything.

He was being deprived of it.

 

 

He couldn’t allow it.

 

 

“Ugh…ughhhhh!!”

 

 

With bloodshot eyes, he turned his head and called out to his confidant with a beast-like cry.

 

 

“Maron!!!”

“Y-yes?!”

“Right no-“

“Is there a pig here?”

 

 

Amar’s huge belly, who was about to give an order, suddenly caved in about 30 centimeters due to a swung leg.

 

 

“Kkuwaeg!!”

 

 

Amar rolled around on the floor in a disgraceful manner, covered in all sorts of dust.

The noble, who was supposed to be a Baron, looked quite unsightly, but that wasn’t the problem.

 

“You’re a commoner now, right? That means this body can kill you as I please.”

“…That’s not how it works.”

 

 

The Princess objected to Yu-eun’s words, but was naturally ignored.

He approached Amar, who was spitting blood, and gently crushed his thick trotters with his foot.

 

 

“Kkeuaaaaaaack!!!!”

“If you quietly hand over your wife, concubines, and daughter, there won’t be any bloodshed.”

“You’re already bleeding…more than that, you have a wife!!”

 

 

The Princess, who seemed to be a million miles away from her initial image, burst out and objected.

 

 

“Shut up, you Princess.”

“Y-you Princess??”

“…Princess-nim, give up.”

 

 

Veronica shook her head and stopped the Princess.

Yu-eun’s skills were definitely amazing, but apart from that, his personality and mentality were far below par.

It’s only a loss to take him seriously.

 

 

 

“B-Baron-nim….”

 

 

The knight named Maron, who was blankly watching the scene, didn’t know what to do and was flustered.

 

“He’s not a Baron. He’s just a fatso. That means you don’t have to follow him either. Look for another place. Oh, of course, you don’t have to come to the Leizeng territory. No male characters allowed.”

“…Who are you to arbitrarily judge the affairs of the Baron of Leizeng?”

“Me?”

 

 

Yu-eun gave the Princess, who was dumbfounded, a proper answer for the first time.

 

 

 

 

“Emperor.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

+++

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the Knight Tournament, Larnaar received some of the list submitted by Amar from the Knight Bureau.

Even though it was only a small part, its estimated value was a whopping 391 shillings!

 

 

1 Korean won is ‘1 guinea’ in this currency, and 100 million guineas is 1 shilling, so converting it to Korean won means it’s 39.1 billion won.

If you add up the value of the remaining territory, real estate, territory residents, knights, soldiers, and mines, it was impossible to even guess how much it would be.

 

 

“You know?”

“Haa…I know.”

 

 

Yu-eun, who had made some kind of request to Larnaar, smiled brightly.

The request was, of course(?), about the noble ladies in the Amar barony.

 

 

He was planning to take Amar’s wife and concubines, as well as the knights’ women…any woman he thought was pretty.

 

 

Of course, they weren’t added to the list, so their status would remain the same, but would Yu-eun care about that?

 

 

“Then I’ll go first.”

 

With that, Yu-eun left with Siesta, saying he was going to occupy the Amar territory to prepare for any possible situation.

Just as Larnaar and Yuna, who were watching his retreating figure with bitter eyes, were about to sigh at the same time, the Princess’s party approached.

 

“It seems like it’s almost over, would you like to talk to me for a bit? You can leave after that, right?”

 

 

The purpose must be to talk about the three women.

Larnaar swallowed hard and bowed her head.

 

 

“Yes. Princess Jeonha.”

“Yuna-ssi, let’s talk together too!”

“…Sure.”

 

 

Larnaar thought to herself, ‘What’s with this discrimination?’, but obediently guided her.

 

 

In fact, there would be a lot to talk about.

It was somewhat buried because of the sudden strength of the country girls, but just the appearance of Yuna and Yu-eun was a major event that would shake the whole country…no, the continent. Moreover, they cleanly won the territory war, becoming Barons and absorbing the territory at the same time.

Combining the Leizeng Barony and the Amar Barony would create a huge area comparable to a decent County, so that alone was enough to attract the attention of the royal family, including the Princess.

 

If they talked about this and that, they wouldn’t have enough time even if they talked all day.

 

 

 

“By the way, Yuna-ssi….”

“Yes?”

“Are you…allowed to talk?”

 

Larnaar asked cautiously.

She whispered in her ear, close to her, but for some reason, the Princess’s expression soured.

 

“Let’s not get too close~ What are you doing in front of me? How indecent.”

“Ah…I’m sorry.”

 

When Larnaar quickly moved away, Yuna drew a circle on her palm with her index finger.

 

 

“….”

 

 

When she looked up, Yuna nodded slightly.

It meant it was okay to talk.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tok.

 

 

“Will you start telling me now? What are the identities of those women?”

 

The Princess opened her mouth, gracefully tilting her teacup.

On the way here, the owner of this territory had subtly sent gestures that she wanted to take her under her wing, but she cleanly ignored them.

Right now, her only interest was in ‘those’ women, Yuna, and Yu-eun.

 

 

“First of all…I hope you properly accept that Yuna-ssi and Yu-eun-ssi are not mercenaries.”

“Hmm…then what are they?”

“First of all, that human and I are not from this world.”

“….”

 

 

The Princess stared at Yuna for a moment, then suddenly turned her head.

 

 

“…That look is cute too, but I still like Yuna-ssi as she usually is. I hope you get well soon….”

“I’m not sick.”

“But you’re not from this world. What does that even mean?”

“It means exactly what it says. That human and I crossed dimensions and came here. In other words, we’re humans from another world, Otherworlders.”

The Princess frowned, thinking it was nonsense, but she couldn’t just ignore what Yuna was saying.

 

 

“Okay. Let’s just say that’s the case.”

“Princess-nim….”

Veronica lamented with a pitiful voice.

She was so blinded by love that she couldn’t tell right from wrong, and now she was even trying to believe such words.

How could she not feel sorry for her….

 

 

“So, what’s the big deal about that?”

“Yes…as you can see…Yuna-ssi and Yu-eun-ssi are amazing experts. Even a Master wouldn’t be able to easily guarantee victory against them.”

 

At this point, both the Princess and Veronica nodded.

Whatever their personality, it was true that they were strong.

 

 

To be honest, considering what they had witnessed earlier, they even had an uneasy suspicion that they might easily defeat a Master.

 

 

“Especially Yu-eun-ssi, in addition to his skills, has one special ability.”

“Special ability?”

“Yes.”

Larnaar swallowed for a moment.

 

“He can ‘mass-produce’ Expert-level knights. Although there’s a condition that they have to be ‘women’.”

“…Excuse me?”

“Excuse me?”

 

The Princess and Veronica both made blank expressions at the unimaginable words.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

+++

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Everything is about speed.

It was the same at this moment.

 

 

From the territory where the Knight Tournament was held to the Amar barony was a two-day journey by horse.

It would also take about two days for the news that the Leizeng Barony had won to reach them.

 

 

That meant that Amar’s wife and concubines would have at least two days to hear the news and run away!

 

 

So Yu-eun ran.

He ran with Siesta tucked under his arm.

 

Yu-eun, who had unbelievable stats, and Siesta, who knew the way.

That combination resulted in the amazing feat of arriving in 4 hours.

 

 

The small castle in the distance was the Amar barony castle!

Yu-eun smiled grimly.

 

 

“Hehehe. That’s that fatso’s castle.”

“….”

 

 

Siesta straightened her disheveled hair and folded her hands demurely.

 

“Amar is known to have 1 wife and 8 concubines.”

“Only 8? I didn’t think he was the type to end it with that.”

“He used to replace them when he got tired of them.”

“Wow. What trash.”

“….”

 

 

Siesta stared at Yu-eun with a dumbfounded look for a moment.

 

 

“Why. What.”

“Master…hoo…never mind.”

 

 

She was about to say, ‘Are you one to talk?’, but eventually shook her head.

 

“Anyway, the woman he cherishes the most is a person named ‘Lumia’. She became a concubine 6 months ago.”

“You know a lot of details?”

“Because I was the enemy.”

“Oho. I see. If she’s a cherished concubine, she must be pretty, right? Good. I’ll go to her first.”
