=====================

Regnas bore the stigma of being a regicide by killing all the kings and nobles of the Pug Kingdom, but the Kingdom of Boemon still revered him as a saint of swords.

It’s not just Sword Saint.

The same was true for the members of the saint’s party who had disappeared earlier.

The Boemon Kingdom, which was founded in the process of conquering the territory of the Demon King’s army, praised Saint Party, who led the Third Race War to victory, as the savior of mankind. Therefore, the Kingdom of Boemon respectfully accepted Regnas, who had been reduced to a regicide, as an honored guest.

“Saint of the Holy Sword, please give me your command.”

A man armed with full body armor put down his rough-looking crown and knelt down.

Tarant von Bohemond.

King of Boemon Kingdom and leader of the Boemon Knights.

The brave king and knights who had recorded an unbeaten record against the Demon King’s army swore obedience. As a warrior who reveres martial arts, I felt infinite reverence and respect for the saint of the sword.

“I’m sorry for coming to you without telling you.”

“It’s not even possible… ! Please order anything.”

If it becomes known that the regicide who committed mass murder was favorably accepted, it would be criticized by numerous countries, including the Baltarian Empire and the Holy Empire of Gael.

Regnas looked at the king and knights with guilty eyes.

It got unrelated people involved.

If a battle were to take place in the Fortress of the Immortals, there would be devastating consequences.

But even so, the king and knights did not waver.

He was filled with only the desire to repay the favor he had received from Saint Party, who defeated the Demon King and saved humanity. Indeed, they were knights of the Kingdom of Boemon who were warriors to the core.

“There will definitely be a commotion.”

“I heard that the Baltarian Empire was attacked by cultists one after another. Are you dealing with the cultists who raided the empire?”

Regnas said in a confused voice.

Tarant opened his mouth with a puzzled expression.

“No. for a moment… I have someone to meet here.”

“Yes?”

“Warmonger. He should be coming now.”

“I, a warmonger… ! The warmonger who disappeared a long time ago is coming!”

Tarrant exhaled in astonishment.

It was the same for the knights of Boemon Kingdom who were listening to the conversation.

Warmonger.

A war hero who suddenly appeared like a comet.

And an unidentified ghost who disappeared as soon as the Immortal Fortress was dropped.

I swallowed dry saliva and shook my shoulders.

The warmonger recorded in mysterious legends will descend upon the Immortal Fortress. The king and knights felt a dizzying sense of joy and elation flowing through their entire bodies.

“Obviously, as soon as you meet me… I’ll pull the trigger first. Because he is that kind of person.”

“Well, what is that… !”

Those are scary words.

You’re going to point a gun at an old comrade in arms.

There is a possibility that a battle will break out.

There was anxiety that a sword saint and a warmonger might fight in the Kingdom of Boemon.

If the heroes representing humanity fought sincerely, the entire kingdom would be devastated. Tarant looked at Regnas with concern.

“You don’t have to be that surprised. Because it’s his unique way of greeting.”

“… … .”

Regnas said with a longing smile. Looking at his calm appearance, it seemed like he had often been greeted harshly by a warmonger.

It’s not something to laugh about at all… .

Where on earth can there be a person who uses a bullet to detoxify a bullet?

The king and knights were astonished and stuck out their tongues.

“The King will not have anything to worry about. I can assure you.”

“Yes, I understand… .”

Regnas, who had promised safety to the king of Boemon Kingdom, took action. Because Edanant would have heard the news by now.

How should I face him?

hmm.

First of all, we have to knock out the bullets.

As soon as Edanant comes face to face, he will pull out a pistol first.

Regnas went outside and eventually climbed the walls of the fortress. It was to reminisce about the glory of the past when he traversed the continent and defeated numerous monsters.

* * *

The Kingdom of Boemon was founded by recovering the territory occupied by the Demon King’s army, but the surrounding area was still infested with monsters eroded by dark magical power.

The Holy Emperor dispatched troops to support the kingdom.

The Holy Emperor’s troops, who had received orders, were continuing the battle line by advancing and retreating against the monsters.

When the battle was almost over,

I heard that Regnus, who had been reduced to a regicide, had entered the Fortress of the Immortals.

“Saint!”

“Can’t believe the saint is coming in person… !”

The high-ranking Holy Knights in charge of the troops moved urgently.

This is because a saint with flowing silver hair arrived at the Holy Knights’ camp accompanied by a girl as cute as a fairy.

The first saint came.

With the appearance of the Sword Saint, the garrison, which had been in turmoil, began to be in turmoil again.

Zeveline, who arrived at Boemon Kingdom after using the warp gate several times, immediately asked the Holy Knights about the movements of the Sword Saint. This is because Edanant, who had begun to act alone, would soon appear.

“The Sword Saint continues to stay in the Immortal Fortress. I checked it out this morning.”

“Maintain confidentiality. It shouldn’t be known to the public yet.”

Jeveline intentionally did not inform the Holy Empire of the Sword Saint’s appearance in the Immortal Fortress. If the Holy Emperor and the cardinals find out, they will definitely escalate the situation.

We need a stage to dramatically announce the second coming of warmongers.

Therefore, we tried to completely exclude the intervention of those who might be saboteurs.

How far has Edanant come?

The saint, dressed in pure white robes, raised her head and remembered Edanant.

“What happened to the monsters that were eroded by demon energy?”

“Most of the monsters that raided the kingdom have been subdued, but the leader is still holding out. This is a persistent guy who has held on despite being showered with holy magic multiple times.”

“Be thoroughly prepared. Basically, the more monsters are cornered, the worse they become.”

“Yes, I understand!”

Disturbing demonic energy flew in on the wind.

It seemed to indicate that the leader of numerous monsters was alive.

They must be preparing a counterattack by now.

Zeveline frowned as she felt the demonic energy starting to get darker.

“Madam, will Ethan be okay? Will it come to you again?”

As the Holy Knights retreated, Lue asked in a tearful voice.

Is it because I was far away from Edanant for the first time?

Lue seemed to have lost her usual innocence, looking very withdrawn, like a puppy that had been hit by a rain shower. He seemed to be overcome with fear that he might be abandoned by Edenant following Maximilian.

“It’s okay, I’ll be there soon.”

You might have left me behind.

You might never find me like this.

The tear-filled, light green eyes were full of fear.

Zeveline felt sympathy for Lue as she looked at her terrified figure. Because, like the young fairy, she had a past where she shed tears and was in pain over breaking up with someone precious to her.

“Until now, Ethan has never broken a promise. I’m sure we’ll be able to meet tomorrow.”

“I guess so… ? Every time Ethan got angry, he said he would throw him on the mountain.”

“Surely Ethan would abandon Lue? If you are the Marquis of Hohenberg, who is over 60 years old… .”

“Ugh.”

Now was the time to trust and wait.

I’ve waited for three years, but I can’t seem to last three days.

three days.

This is the date that Edanant promised.

Zeveline withdrew all the paladins from the Immortal Fortress and waited for good news from Edanant.

* * *

The Immortal Fortress once suffered the humiliation of collapsing under heavy bombardment.

However, the Immortal Fortress, restored by the Boemon Knights who drove out the Demon King’s army and recovered the territory, boasted of its impregnable majesty as if it was showing off its past glory.

A majestic castle wall like a sheer cliff.

Gates that prevent any attack and spiers placed everywhere to drive out intruders.

The scene was very similar, as if we had returned to the past.

no,

The fortress, which had faced successive storms, had become even stronger.

Edanant, who was staring at the impregnable fortress, let out a heavy sigh as he adjusted the iron mask on his face. This is because of the presence of a vampire that clings like a leech right next to me.

“I will gladly help you, Prophet. Please leave it to me!”

“… Just watch from behind. Because I’m anxious and can’t leave it to you.”

The vampire with beautiful black hair willingly wore a mask to join Edanant, who hid his identity behind an iron mask.

It was a little different from the clunky iron mask.

The mask Ariel created with fresh blood boasted an elegance that could be used at a ball.

This is a golden opportunity to let foolish humans know about the greatness of the Forerunner.

It was also a turning point that declared the arrival of the scourge of war in a peaceful world.

The vampire looked as excited as a child and waited for Edanant to give orders.

‘I’m so sick of it. I thought it would never come again… .’

Fate is truly a terrible thing.

I never thought it would bring back ghosts that disappeared in the past.

The situation becomes complicated when the knights of Boemon Kingdom join the Sword Saint. Of course, the Sword Saint would never use unrelated people as cannon fodder, but he always had to prepare for the worst.

Finish it as quickly as possible.

Even if it means fighting a guy who has become a regicide.

“Let’s go.”

The eyes of the warmonger hidden beneath the iron mask turned black.
