episode_0125

The sight seen after entering the Knights’ training ground was one that made Deltans hold their foreheads.

“Ugh! Try hitting harder!”

“No specification!”

In the middle of the training hall, Kaltara and Henry were standing face to face, wearing only their underwear.

Henry was leaning back with his legs shoulder-width apart.

Kaltara was clenching his right fist and thrusting the power into Henry’s stomach.

Wow!

“What do you think?”

“It’s sturdy!”

It must be seen as a scene of madness.

At least within the common sense known to Deltans, there was no word for a situation in which muscular men and women inflicted one-sided violence while wearing only their underwear.

… No, it existed, but that wasn’t the word to use in this situation.

“Fobler.”

Deltan asked the squatting Pobbler.

Then Jevis took a step ahead and explained.

“I’m making a bet! Will the Count be able to withstand the leader’s 30th regime?”

“Who on earth participates in a bet like that?”

“Everyone here.”

The Delta person who raised his head at those words was able to confirm it later.

The knights sitting around the training ground were shouting and cheering for either Kaltara or Henry.

“Count niiim!!! You must win! My entire salary this month is on the count!”

“Kaltara! Kaltara! Masochist Kaltara! A legendary fist that will never be seen again in the history of the continent!”

Jevis said as Deltan laughed, wondering what on earth he was doing.

“Would you like to do this too, leader?”

“I don’t.”

“Dividends are quite equal.”

“It’s not fun to bet on a game where you know the outcome.”

Kaltara will definitely win.

This is why [Defense Penetration] was what Deltans paid most attention to when designing Kaltara’s growth.

If you express it in game numbers, it was like that.

Kaltara’s [Defense Penetration] value reaches 99%.

In other words, no matter how strong Henry’s defense was, there was no way to block Kaltara’s fist.

In the midst of this, Agnes stabbed Deltan in the arm.

“Oh, that’s right.”

I put a silencing spell on it.

Just-

“I guess it’s me.”

“Oh, princess, who would you give it to?”

“5 gold from Kaltara.”

Agnes took out five gold coins from her pocket.

Deltan said as he looked at it.

“I saved the allowance I received. I have to use up all of it soon.”

After saying that, Agnes added another word.

These words were uttered while pretending to feel sorry for the subject.

“Are you going to take it away?”

“Why me?”

“I just asked. If they tell you to take it away, you have to give it to them. Because we have a big difference in power.”

“Do I have a reason to do that?”

“Um, are you so obsessed with me that you can’t even tolerate what little freedom I have left?”

What kind of nonsensical reason are you giving?

Deltan let out a laugh, feeling completely dumbfounded.

But as if these words felt different to those who heard them, all three hunting dogs began to look curious.

Tendons stood on Deltan’s forehead.

“… It’s not like that.”

“I didn’t say anything.”

“Fobler, you are fasting today.”

Fobler made a shocked face.

Only then did Jevis and Galan quietly lower their heads.

Agnes giggled and said as soon as she looked at the three people.

“You know it’s a joke, right?”

“I know. That’s because the world doesn’t know.”

So, please refrain from saying difficult things.

Deltan glared at Agnes.

Agnes chuckled and crossed her arms as if to apologize.

I shouldn’t feel relieved by something like this, so why can’t my mind calm down again?

Such difficult moments were continuing.

“Sigh!”

A painful groan came from Henry.

Deltan looked again at Henry, whose knees were slightly bent.

“I’m twenty-three now!”

“There are seven left!”

Henry stood up again excitedly.

But I don’t know.

It seemed like I didn’t have the courage to endure any longer.

The smile slowly cracked, clearly showing that he was overdoing it.

‘and… .’

Above all, Kaltara had not yet demonstrated her true skills.

In other words, Henry was testing his limits by slowly increasing the intensity.

‘He has a really bad personality.’

Isn’t it because he is called a masochist and likes to torment others too much?

Deltan clicked his tongue and shouted.

“Kaltara!”

“Hmm? ah! Boss!”

Why are you just pretending to notice it now?

I guess you already knew everything just by looking at me.

“Stop playing around and end it. Because I have something to discuss with that guy.”

“What a pity!”

Kaltara laughed arrogantly.

Henry then realized something was wrong and began to surround himself with Aurors.

However, that wasn’t enough to stop Kaltara.

“I’m sorry! There is a command from the boss!”

thud!

As Kaltara took her stance, the sand of the training ground shook.

As she wrapped her aura around her fist, the air currents began to change.

And when I stretched out my fist, the situation ended.

Pop!

The sound is so shabby that it can’t be compared to what it was before.

With that, Henry’s knees fell.

Without wasting any energy, he threw it all into Henry.

“Wow, I won.”

Agnes was happy and clapped her hands.

Deltan chuckled.

‘No way. Beating Kaltara is.’

What is the use of being the youngest road-level driver?

Reaching the rod level at the youngest age and being the strongest among the load class were never the same thing.

“Baekjaaa!!!”

The knight who had bet his entire salary for the previous month on Henry screamed.

*

The situation that followed was very natural.

“Even if you’re not very smart, it can’t be like this, look. count. You are the one who will leave for enemy territory tomorrow. Is it right for a person like that to make such an unreasonable bet and get injured?”

The count’s infirmary.

The Countess scolded Henry who was lying in bed.

What can Henry say when the words he is saying are mostly correct?

“… I’m sorry.”

There was nothing left but an apology.

Henry’s head fell lower and lower like ripening rice, and the countess’s eyebrows grew fiercer at the sight.

Are those the words of a man who failed to take the lead in his marriage?

Deltan felt sorry.

“Count of Hebron. What did you do instead of stopping him?”

“It was finished when I went.”

Deltan lied shamelessly.

And then he said:

“Okay, let’s talk about work. If the injury is that bad, it won’t heal in one day.”

Henry nodded loudly.

A bright smile as if you have met your savior is a bonus.

“That’s what I want to say now… .”

“That’s right. Even if it looks like that, isn’t it a Lord-level knight?”

For a road-level knight, a slight injury was not a big problem.

This is because the body, which is reassembled as it rises to the level of a rod, maximizes the efficiency of all biological activities.

Aside from that, the Kargos family’s home martial arts are extremely defensive-oriented, so just learning them will compensate for your natural healing power.

How dare Henry be considered a tank in [Evlore] that can be used in end content?

‘I can’t take you with me because of my affiliation.’

If it weren’t for the count’s owner, Henry Cargos would have been ranked 0 for recruiting hunting dogs.

Deltan said, erasing the thought that came to mind.

“Don’t look at your husband too much like a child. Still, he’s like the shield of an empire.”

“… .”

The countess’s expression became surly.

Deltan ignored it and said to Henry.

“First, I plan to cross the border and go to the land of the elves.”

“Hmm? You mean ears? A dwarf would be better.”

“No, it’s right to go to the ears. My goal is to enter the place of exile.”

Each of these races had a role to play in the eastern lands.

Among them, the elves served as vigilantes in the eastern lands of different races, and as such, they also had the role of catching vicious criminals in the east and sending them into exile.

As evidence, if you look through the records of the elves, you will find various information about the place of exile.

another one.

“They owe me money.”

The land of the elves is where the Deltans, who make enemies wherever they go, make few allies.

Ershant, the elder there.

Deltan once saved her only blood relative from a demon.

“Then the land of the elves would be good, but… .”

Henry’s expression became dissatisfied.

I understand.

Given Henry’s honest and cool personality, the tight-knit culture of elves and their physiology may not be something he likes.

But the Deltans had no reason to look after Henry’s situation.

“Anyway, just know that and focus on recovery. I’ll leave tomorrow morning.”

Deltan said and left the infirmary.

*

Another day passed without much incident.

In the meantime, I had a few pointless arguments with Agnes, but it wasn’t that important.

In any case, finally escaping the empire is the most important thing for them.

“You are leaving.”

In front of the mansion, where Deltan’s sedan, Henry’s beloved SUV, and trucks loaded with supplies were lined up, the Countess came out to see her son, Porter, in her arms.

“Uuuh… .”

Potter looked at Henry with mischievous eyes.

I stretched out my hand and waved it, and Henry put his thumb in it and said.

“Potter, this father will come back with another legend.”

He smiled confidently.

Potter didn’t even know what that meant, but he just burst out laughing because he liked his father’s face.

Agnes looked blankly at the scene.

“What’s wrong?”

“No, it’s just cute.”

“Henry?”

“Potter.”

Agnes poked Deltan in the waist.

“Grown men are not cute. Except you.”

“… .”

Deltan’s cheeks turned slightly red.

“… I didn’t expect you to say that.”

“I know. I was just kidding. It doesn’t suit me.”

“Is it really that big of a deal?”

“I’m not good at telling jokes. You.”

It was true.

Deltans tend to take everything quite seriously, so they were not good at making light jokes like this.

Still, I tried to pretend to be cheerful, but it seemed like it was too much.

Deltan decided to refrain from making unnecessary jokes.

“Count Hebron, please take good care of your husband.”

Deltan lowered his head as the Countess spoke to him.

The sharp tone in her tone seems to indicate that she is not very happy with the idea of taking her husband away.

After all, it means taking away the father of a one-year-old child, so how could one like it?

Deltan understood.

“We will try to bring him back safely.”

“Yes, and the princess had a nice trip too.”

The Countess grinned.

When Deltan saw the countess who was especially kind to Agnes, he realized that Agnes was quite a knack for winning the kindness of women.

It was after that moment had passed.

“Now! Then let’s really get started!”

Henry, who was full of Porter’s energy, headed to the SUV with his muscles flexing.

Recovery seemed to be over.

“It will be back within a week or two. See you then.”

“Yes.”

After saying hello to Countess Delta, I got into the car.

Soon the car started.

Just like that, Deltan and his party crossed the castle wall.
