Alex was glaring at me with his eyes wide open.

It was a natural reaction since I had not received any information about such a dangerous monster.

“What was that just?!”

“It is a poison created by Venus to kill immortals.”

“······What?”

I leisurely told an old story to an excited Alex.

The reason why Amor became the devil and the anger of Venus who went crazy. Venus deflection, etc.

It seemed that Lexi had not given such detailed information.

“···Why did you hide the truth?”

“If the servant’s bias is revealed, it won’t be good for the saint.”

I drank the refreshing water the clerk poured for me.

“It can withstand even the wyvern’s fear. Even if the heart or brain was destroyed, the power did not work, and even when I was Dantalian’s agent, the power did not work.”

“I heard what happened in Alemoshir.”

“It was killed by Venus’ agent himself. Even she killed him thousands of times until he died.”

Alex took a refreshing drink of the alcohol brought by the Blue Pearl branch owner.

widely!

Uncharacteristically, he smiled a bitter smile that did not suit him.

“···In the end, you were right from the beginning.”

“Venus’ former agent said: Good and evil, right and wrong are not important. They say angels and devils coexist in everyone’s heart.”

“You are a great dreamer.”

“At that time, he was so happy that he could dream.”

“What were you doing to say something like that?”

“He was begging me for death.”

“······.”

“The karma you carry in your heart is an anchor. They say you won’t be swept away, but they won’t let you move forward, so don’t regret it.”

Nevertheless, when I look back on the past, I regret it.

‘Couldn’t we have done better?’ saying.

It’s just the kind of regret that everyone has.

I no longer hesitate about most things.

“Isn’t that a good thing to say?”

“That’s why you became a crazy person who won’t look back no matter how many times you die.”

“Quuk! yes. I guess so.”

Amor told me

Death is not the end, so use even death.

If I think about it carefully, I was greatly influenced by him.

“···This guy killed his presence. But it’s hidden somewhere in this city.”

“Is that possible?”

“The guy has become weak, and the presence of the monster outside the castle is too strong. My senses are paralyzed.”

“What on earth is it?”

Our eyes naturally turned to the officials.

Crown Prince Yingsen, who is cornered, is just staring with his eyes rolling.

“Hey.”

Alex roughly removes Ingsen’s gag.

“Ha! Whoa…!”

“What is the monster that protects your father?”

“What are you talking about?!”

“Immortal. The guy who uses this two-handed sword.”

The prince shakes his head desperately.

“I don’t know!”

“There is no way that a mere human possesses the divine power of Vulcan.”

Alex shows Ingsen a two-handed sword.

“I don’t know!”

“Don’t act like a fool!”

“Isn’t that possible?”

“···What?”

“I also have one. You just gave it to me?”

It’s surprisingly easy to give.

But why would a servant create a weapon with his own power?

The reason I got the shoes was to avoid the heat of the Hibi Desert.

“There is no way a servant could make a sacred weapon like a weapon…”

‘What on earth is this?’

I took the sacred item that Alex was carrying and approached the crown prince.

The era can be predicted by the compatibility between weapons or the way they were created.

However, ‘humans’ do not use two-handed swords.

The basic principle of a two-handed sword is that it is supported by the user’s strength.

But isn’t this world full of Horsots who are stronger than humans?

“Hee profit?!”

“I saw your work. It was a nice armor.”

Yingsen’s eyes glance at me.

I lifted the flag up on the table.

“When was this weapon made?”

Do you mean the year “?”

I laughed out loud at the sudden respect.

“Yes. Aren’t there different styles and quenching methods depending on the era?”

“If you are a driver, you would know this, so why are you asking that?”

“If you are a blacksmith, you would know that, right? Human knights do not use two-handed swords.”

Ingsen’s eyes turn to me.

“Are you Dantalian’s agent?”

“That doesn’t mean he’s a good person.”

Yingsen takes the sword and glances at me.

“It is a two-handed sword of the late Laobian period, from the 3rd to 4th centuries ago.”

“This was before the Drekkar Alliance even existed.”

“Plate armor began to become popular after the founding of Romaria. In previous times, humans also used two-handed swords.”

That was a time when humans fought against humans.

But I knew one thing.

“···At least 400 years old. You lived a long time.”

Our opponent is a monster of a generation older than Julias and Lexi.

* * * * * *

Sleeping pills and anesthetics were added to the crown prince’s meals.

While he was asleep, I cut off the crown prince’s right little finger, toes, and ear.

I wrote a short essay titled “Confess your sins.” and handed it to Alex.

Alex politely delivered the prince’s body and letter to his office.

But the other person did not react.

It seemed difficult for even parents to recognize their children using their fingers or ears.

With Anne’s help, he wrote the words “Confess your sins” in large letters on the main gate of the palace.

Only then did the palace turn upside down.

A few days later. Immortal demigods cursed by servants eventually invaded the capital.

Even the temple knights were not enough to overcome the monster.

In the end, the private opinion ended with the dispatched Dragonia taking care of the monster.

And at the same time, its identity was revealed.

A monster that appeared in Ga-Alemoshir.

─The servant’s curse.

Although he had no intention of doing so, word began to spread that Stefan had committed a crime.

“I think Immortal is actually trying to help us.”

“The guy who almost died speaks well.”

The banquet marking the 40th anniversary of Stephen’s accession to the throne was taking on a hearing-like atmosphere.

“···Why on earth are you doing this to my family?”

“It is the will of a servant or has no grand meaning.”

“···Yes?”

“I just want to create a better world.”

The prince seemed to have lost all strength and fell down on his chair.

The severed body parts had already been regenerated.

They cut it off after giving him anesthesia so he couldn’t feel any pain, and it wasn’t until it was time to eat that he realized his finger was gone.

I noticed my ear while I was washing my face, and I didn’t even notice that my toe was cut off.

In the first place, the prince didn’t even see his finger being cut off.

However, he seems to be dissatisfied with the fact that my ring has disappeared.

“What kind of person was your father?”

“···He is a very affectionate person.”

“We are not hoping for an extreme ending. Your father just needs to step down from the throne. You just have to compete for the throne.”

“There’s no way your uncle would leave your father alone, right?!”

“That may be true. But that’s your father’s karma, not yours.”

To begin with, Heinrich is not the type of person to kill people.

That person is just a blacksmith.

“From the very beginning. He has decided to compete for the throne with you. If I lose to you, I’ll just be your uncle.”

I looked at the prince who was shaking with anxiety.

“Wouldn’t Heinrich be afraid of being defeated by you, the greatest blacksmith of his time? Couldn’t we be purged?”

“······.”

“He is that kind of person.”

Dverg soldiers can be seen running in all directions.

Nosy hunting dogs, hosots, and terubs roamed around.

But I didn’t come close to this tavern.

“···I often told my son your story when he was bored. My son likes you.”

“How old is your child? My child is two years old. He’s a really smart kid.”

“My son is ten years old. I still play with toys.”

toy?

“Ah! If there is a toy that the child is not playing with, would you give it to me?”

“Yes?”

“My son is at the age where he plays with toys for a long time.”

“Not for infants.”

“It’s okay. The kid is so intelligent.”

“·····That’s right.”

The prince laughs.

As if it was amazing.

Soon he looks at me with deep eyes.

“······Our royal family did not hire immortals.”

“Yes. I guess so.”

“···Please believe that we are not on their side.”

“There’s nothing wrong with them.”

It’s those eyes again.

The look in his eyes as if he were looking up to a servant.

It’s hard to watch because it’s uncomfortable to see people misunderstanding that I’m on the side of justice.

“Sinners have a future and saints have a past.”

“···Thank you for your trust.”

I was dumbfounded and speechless.

How does this sound like forgiveness of sins?

“That’s not what I’m saying── No.”

I gave up explaining and closed my eyes.

* * * * * *

As the prince said, the king was a very affectionate person.

Because he begged me to send the prince back, saying that he would confess to me without knowing where he was.

However, this did not mean that Stefan had decided to come out of the palace and give a speech.

He decided to speak at a ceremony commemorating the 40th anniversary of his accession to the throne at the royal palace.

No matter what sin you confess, rumors are bound to spread about the results.

There is no need to enter the palace.

But Alex reluctantly left.

The suspicion that there may have been manipulation in the speech could not be abandoned.

Bang! Pang─!!!

“You will return home tomorrow, and your father will give up the throne that bothered you.”

“Yes. I can’t congratulate you today, but I’ll have to say hello tomorrow.”

The prince poured himself a drink and drank it alone, congratulating his father on his birthday.

Then, as if he was feeling lonely, he offered me a drink.

“I don’t like alcohol.”

“Why don’t you like it?”

“Don’t you think that drinking alcohol to make you feel better is like doing drugs?”

“It is not strange to use drugs in places where drugs are allowed.”

What on earth is so good about alcohol?

But I couldn’t leave anyone waiting, so I offered the glass to the branch manager.

“Please give me some juice.”

“···Juice? Does this look like a kids’ drink place?”

This person appears to have been some kind of weapons collector.

He still holds a grudge against me because I destroyed his collection.

“Or is there no milk?”

“I’m going crazy.”

That means the person next to me wants to eat.

Anne was looking at me with a sulky face.

“I also want to play outside.”

“You can go there.”

“I don’t want to go alone.”

“Don’t you know?” That he’s a wanted criminal.”

“Why are you talking to yourself?”

“There is a beautiful woman sitting next to me.”

“Yes?”

“She is a woman with red eyes like jewels, ivory hair, and skin as fair as milk.”

I looked at the bartender.

“She asks for milk or juice.”

“True. Eat.”

The bartender brought out the juice.

How long has it been since I served juice and alcohol at this hole-in-the-wall store that never has any customers?

The prince fell asleep on the sofa, and the moon had already set.

rattle…

That’s why an unfamiliar person stole my attention.

“Huh?”

Alex, completely devastated, was standing there.

“Uncle─?!!”

Why did you come back as a target for arrows?!!

He glares at me like his blue eyes are burning.

“···I got hit!”

“What are you talking about all of a sudden?!”

“He killed the king!”

“What do you mean by that?!”

The prince who was thought to be sleeping suddenly woke up.

Alex begins to pull out the arrow stuck in his body and looks at the prince.

“That immortal guy! Instead of recovering his lower body, he crawled under the carriage and shot the king!”

“Damn…!”

Only if Stephen confesses can Henry sit on the throne through due process!

If not, there is nothing we can do!

“How on earth did that happen?”

“He handles the bow like a ghost.”

The prince who ran over picked up the arrow that Alex had thrown away and looked at me with a puzzled expression.

Like a person who has been betrayed.

“···Ah, my father…”

“···Sorry.”

···What should I say?

The prince stared at me, then closed his eyes.

When those eyelids opened again, all signs of resentment toward me had disappeared.

“···This arrow is an old arrow from 3 centuries ago.”

“Yes?”

“Archers are sensitive to their arrows and the bow they use, so they either use arrow cabinets in designated places or make their own arrows. This arrow… has four feathers, reaching all the way to the crown. These arrows were only used by ancient people who were ignorant about arrows.”

yes.

Because it is best to have only three arrow feathers.

The fact that four arrows are attached means that arrows with four feathers have been used for so long that even the wrong movement of the arrow has become familiar.

The prince holds up an arrowhead.

“This is obsidian. In reality, the only thing that can be forged at home is cast iron, and cast iron rusts easily. Animals are easily wary of the smell of iron. So hunters used moxie or stone arrowheads, but used obsidian when hunting wild boars, which had thick skin.”

“···How do you know that?”

“I was the one who would become king. I have deep knowledge in many fields… especially weapons and weapons.”

The prince’s calm eyes turn in this direction.

“In particular, this type of bow with four feathers was popular among the nobility of Romaria. The wealthy tried to show off their beauty even with the feathers of their arrows.”

“He called himself a warrior. He enjoyed fighting.”

“Romaria made armor using holy iron forged from the skin of Ouroboros. They occupied a large area with their armor and weapons, so there were many people who revered Mu. ···Only for nobles who can afford armor.”

He was a Romanian nobleman and military officer, and was renowned enough to receive sacred weapons from Vulcanos, dating back at least 2 to 4 centuries.

I can see the outline to some extent, but it’s too vague.

The only person who would know that is Lexi, who is an expert in this field.

“Si.”

[···I better go.]

ah?

You didn’t say anything, but you said you’d come as soon as I called you?

“Who, who is there?!”

“Who are you!”

The branch manager and the crown prince are startled and look around.

“···Why?”

[I know someone.]

“You know? Are you saying we are close?”

[Invincible knight Herman. Guardian knight of James von Romaria, the founding king of Romaria, and the first knight of Pangea.]

I looked at the people.

But no one seemed to know who it was.

How would you know people from hundreds of years ago in the first place?

In the first place, he was a person 100 years before Lexi was born.

[I never thought he was alive.]

“I will take care of it. There is no need to come on purpose.”

[I’m not coming to help you.]

…You’re not coming to help me?

Then why?

[···I’m going because I want to hang out.]

A trembling, slightly excited voice shook the air.
