Sword Pilgrim-Chapter 219
Episode 219
The emperor of the empire was bored.
The unity of the continent was the dream of our grand ancestors, but it was not their dream.
The continent is already in the hands of the empire.
He is only one step ahead of the achievements of his ancestors.
It is an achievement that will be achieved by following the footprints that were taken.
Just as the nobles inherited their titles according to the steps they had followed, so did he.
So the emperor turned his eyes elsewhere.
The unity of the continent can be achieved even if left alone.
Soon, he turned his eyes to Corruption.
Demons are the enemies of mankind that must be eliminated.
He had no doubt that it was God’s will to cross over to the fallen land and conquer it.
More than anyone else, he wanted this achievement to have been achieved by Mordred, not by Lakstua III of the Empire.
But now, at the neck of the emperor of the empire, the sword, an old enemy on the path of downfall, was pointed at him.
Emperor Mordred, who was free of everything.
It was a moment when his heart was beating so fast that it would never again.
“excellent.”
He single-handedly pierced this place where the guards guarding the emperor’s palace and the masters called the spears of the empire were located.
Even though there were no First and Second and a few others, he had pierced five of the Empire’s spears alone.
In this place where everyone except yourself is your enemy.
His sword eventually reached the emperor’s throat.
that fact.
It made the emperor’s heart beat faster.
“There must be a reason for this. speak.”
The Emperor looked at Colius with excitement, unable to believe that he was the one with the knife pointed at his throat.
It was a hot and passionate gaze, as if looking at a lover.
Callius, who had all the spears of the Great War aimed at his whole body, looked at the emperor with unwavering eyes.
“There is only one thing I want. It is a warning.”
“warning? A warning for what?”
“A warning to the empire and to the people who live and breathe the continent.”
“Right.”
The emperor replied as if he understood.
Corruption and dragons he brought with him.
The peace agreement of the Great War of the Dragon Horse was broken.
Again the continent will become a bloodbath from the war with them.
The current horrors of the empire are only part of it.
“I should say thank you.”
The Empire was resting.
No, mankind was complacent.
It can be seen that the man in front of him wanted to awaken such humanity.
It is said that mankind’s enemies were bonded horses and dragons.
“If it’s my neck, I’m sure.”
Shouting with your mouth is never enough.
Certain cognition requires shock.
The half-destroyed imperial palace and system would certainly be shocking, but I couldn’t get a great sense of crisis.
But what if the death of the emperor?
What if the head of the most powerful empire on the continent dies in the safest palace?
There could be no greater shock and sense of crisis to mankind.
There he is with a sword.
Breaking a spear is the sword’s long-cherished wish.
“However, it is not worth it. You could have achieved more. With your sword, it would be possible to become a hero of the day, so why did you make this decision?”
The emperor said as if he was sorry.
Indeed it was.
His sword was sharp. enough to cut his own throat.
But after that?
Even if he kills himself, he cannot survive here.
The emperor was saying this.
Even if you kill yourself, someone else will sit on the throne.
The empire won’t collapse just because of this.
“The Empire would have accomplished its task well enough without me. However, it must be very sad… to not have you in the crumbling Carpe.”
“…”
The emperor was not afraid.
If it was a man like this, I would gladly offer my head.
He was such a worthy man.
Who would dare to infiltrate the imperial palace and decapitate the emperor guarded by the spears of the empire?
It is something that cannot be done unless you have the ability to overwhelm the empire and the distribution to the point of dying.
Nonetheless, he has done it and holds his sword to the throat of the Empire.
For that alone, the emperor highly regarded him and considered him a hero of the day.
“your majesty…!”
“Shut up!! Do you dare to engage in disloyalty by interfering with my words!!”
The lion’s roar was unbelievable for a man with a knife in his throat.
The emperor, who issued an unholy order, looked at Colius again and spat out a gentle voice.
“Sorry. I’m really sorry. I should have met a great commander like you sooner. When the saintess said that she had been taken captive, she should have come and seen you in person. It’s a thousand regrets not to do that.”
Then, the emperor looked at the frozen princess and said,
“You sit on the throne. Your brother is arrogant and has no grand wit as a man. You can’t put a bug that only wants to live on the throne. You sit down to defend the Empire and go forth to defend humanity. The land cannot be taken away by demons and dragons again.”
“Your Majesty…!!”
The princess knelt down with trembling hands and shed tears.
It was because he had an intuition that it was the end of the emperor.
He had not been loved all his life, but he was his father nonetheless.
“If this is the case, I have been polite to you. I’ve never been envious of Carpe in my entire life. I really envy Carpe who has loyal subjects like you today.”
The emperor slowly closed his eyes.
When it was time to die, regrets and remorse came flooding in.
But it wasn’t that bitter.
To die with the hero of our time.
It was then.
“You are misunderstanding something.”
The silent man opened his mouth.
“…?”
“I said I came to warn you.”
That’s what it means.
“Are you saying you won’t take my neck?”
“That wouldn’t be bad either. But not yet.”
Not yet.
It’s an arrogant statement that sounds like someone could take their own throat at any time.
However, for some reason, I didn’t feel arrogant at all. Pleasant goosebumps ran through the Emperor’s body.
If you look at the word yet, it also means that the emperor is still needed.
“…don’t kill me. Then you will be the only one who dies.”
Currently, dozens of spears are pointed at Colius’ neck.
He had no means.
No matter what you choose, death is the only choice.
There would be no option to survive, so it would have been natural to take the emperor’s throat…
Then he laughed.
“Who is going to die here?”
with a creepy smile.
Kwaaaaaaang-!!
Once again, the Great War was shaken by a huge shock.
“Aww!”
“Protect His Majesty the Emperor of Fire!!”
“The Emperor! Where is His Majesty the Emperor!!”
Due to the sudden great war, huge ironclad dragons came crashing into each other.
After the earthquake stopped, several dragons were flying on top of the huge hole in the roof of the Great Hall.
The emperor’s eyes caught a man standing on top of one of them.
-Don’t forget my warning.
warning. The emperor, realizing the true meaning of it, exclaimed that the Great War should leave.
“Ha ha ha ha… ha ha ha ha ha ha!!”
Isn’t this what a great man
Where in the world would there be a man who would return alive even after aiming his sword at the emperor of the empire?
“Ha ha… Hehehe.”
The emperor let out a sigh of relief as he saw the man leave without regret.
And laughed.
Being relieved at the fact that he was alive was an unfamiliar thing in itself.
“Give me an order!”
“your majesty! Right now, I’m going to kill him…!”
“Bullshit. He was a man who could have killed Jim and escaped. I already owed him my life, so how dare I commit such a foolish act?”
And not even when it is.
In my heart, I wanted to catch him right away and hold him until he swore allegiance to me, but the situation is not feasible.
“The warning was definitely received. First of all, it’s time to treat the guests who came to the empire.”
thud.
The emperor grabbed his spear next to the throne and threw speculation.
“The blood boils. It’s been a while since I’ve seen blood, and it won’t subside.”
For a while, this excitement will not subside. thought the emperor.
And Prince Baldry, who looked at the emperor coldly, chewed his teeth as he looked at the emperor and princess.
* * *
The man on top of the ironclad dragon galloping through the gray sky suddenly looked at the battlefield and coughed up blood.
“I was a little overworked.”
After wiping off the blood with a handkerchief and throwing it away without regret, he gazed at the battlefield for a while before heading east.
“The Empire has nothing to worry about for a while now.”
Corruption and dragons will also lose a lot of power from this war.
Empires, Corruption, and Dragons.
It doesn’t matter who wins the three-way battle, so it’s a win for me no matter what.
“It doesn’t matter if we go to Carpe now.”
Whether the dragon appears or the corruption appears, it is enough to fight now.
And Carpe probably still hasn’t sorted out his resentment with the dukedom.
I had to run to Carpe to sort out the unfinished business and get rid of the principality first.
Unlike the Empire, the Principality has a more certain justification and resentment.
“With experience points from the duchy, Carpe’s national power will be raised, and as a temporary alliance with the empire, we will go to war against corruption and dragons.”
It was the reason he didn’t kill the emperor.
If the emperor is killed, there is no one who can easily rule the chaos of the empire.
Rather, it only makes it more confusing.
The Empire is still needed.
To drain their power.
“What will happen now?”
Gradually, proper confusion has arisen, so the hiding guys come out.
Corruption and dragons.
In addition to them, fairies and goblins inhabit this land. The time has come for the giants to appear.
What kind of relationship will they form and what kind of change will they bring?
I was curious about that.
“I don’t want to lose myself to giants if possible.”
A giant called the treasure trove of knowledge.
Maybe sooner or later I’ll have to stop by their land too.
“A giant might know what God is up to.”
God’s will.
cos i don’t know

A few days later.
in the dark ground.
A place where dwarves with small, sparsely shaved hair, large and long noses, and hooked noses gather.
Council of Materigan.
The goblins were seated there with their golden eyes shining.
“It came to this in the end.”
“Isn’t that the order of the day? The war between foolish humans and even more foolish corruption and dragons is a natural result.”
Like the goblins who call themselves intellectuals, it was the main topic from the beginning.
Lecter sighed as he looked at the council of twelve.
Reproduction of goblins that received divine punishment was difficult. Even if they give birth to children, they die quickly or, unlike themselves, they have poor intelligence that makes it difficult to pass on children.
Under the divine punishment that the children of goblins, who are considered intellectuals, are no different from beasts, they do not make children, but even if they do, they are disappointed and kill their own children shedding tears.
So now, there are only twelve goblins gathered here and three secluded.
“What the hell is that gray guy doing to instigate their war?”
“How do I know that? He must have incur the wrath of God because he is a madman.”
“He wasn’t punished like we were, so he’s not crazy.”
“…Anyway, the important thing now is that they collided earlier than planned.”
“Whose hand should we raise?”
“Definitely human. Humans are beings that absorb knowledge like a dry rag. If time passes like this and knowledge is achieved, we might create an era where there are no gods as advanced as our civilization.”
Just like the time when I denied God.
“Corruption is a shell in which only vengeance against the gods has settled. Dragons are unnecessarily naive and they can’t communicate at all, so humans are better.”
However.
“I don’t see human progress necessarily benefiting us.”
“Why?”
“They are an insatiable race.”
“Hmm….”
A human who has obtained the continent will want to covet even more.
Goblins know that very well.
Because there is no race that has had more interactions with humans than they do.
“but.”
Human beings are a race of people who, given one, expect two, and then ten.
A foolish people who can live contentedly with just one good fortune, but bring their own misfortune by wishing for more.
Goblins have long seen human selfishness and unbridled greed through trading.
There were quite a few people here who didn’t like humans.
One goblin, who had been listening to the mixed opinions, opened his mouth.
“Would you like to hear my story?”
“Lecter. knowledge of balance. tell me.”
Lecter opened his mouth.
He tells the story of a man he met.
A man who had touched the truth of the world.
and.
That it was the gray that God spoke of, and that it was the one who instigated the war.
“Gods and depravity both want him.”
“What do you mean?”
“Then what do the giants look like?”
The goblins stopped breathing for an instant.
“You mean a giant will appear?”
“Corruption came out and use came out. There is no reason not to come out as giants. In the first place, they are different from us.”
I don’t want to admit it, but
“They are those who reached above the sky.”
I’ll be aiming for the sky again.
“What do you want Lecter to say!”
Then Lecter’s yellow teeth showed through. Teeth flashed in the dark candlelight.
“The sky for giants to climb…. Why can’t we?”
“!!”
“No way!”
Lecter, clad in his hands, held back his words with a sinister smile.
his will. The goblins didn’t know.
“God… is afraid of him.” ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Dragging.
Laughing without an answer, he looked up at the invisible sky.
“I don’t know if an apostle will fall from the sky soon. Crunchy!!”
