    Episode 106

    Christian smiled faintly.

    “Then I’ll be going now. Do as I said.”

    “…okay.”

    Whoosh, when Christian jumped up on the window.

    “Wait a minute. I have something to say.”

    “what?”

    Roy hesitated and then said.

    “…thanks.”

    Chris made a surprised expression and chuckled.

    “I can’t hear you very well. What did you say? Could you speak with a little more respect and sincerity?”

    “…Thank you! You damn devil. You are my benefactor.”

    Chris chuckled.

    “I’ll see you again soon.”

    “…what?”

    Roy’s face hardened.

    Again? Why?

    Wasn’t the work over?

    “Because something big is going to happen to Gold Cross soon.”

    “Now, wait, what does that mean? What’s going to happen next?”

    “Yes, this is something incomparable to what happened before, so prepare yourself mentally.”

    The Gold Cross disaster was imminent.

    At that time, Chris planned to use Roy again.

    “Well then, that’s it. See you later.”

    “Hey, wait?!”

    Pfft!

    Roy looked blankly out the window where Chris had disappeared.

    “What the hell.”

    This incident in the County of Bursen was no ordinary incident, so I didn’t expect something even bigger to happen.

    One thing is for sure, it’s usually nothing serious.

    Roy had a gut feeling.

    You shouldn’t get involved.

    “…Well, I guess it’s okay. There’s no reason for me to get involved in Gold Cross’s business. As a Count, I only care about the affairs of the county….”

    however.

    Roy paused.

    It reminded me of something I had forgotten.

    “…Wait a minute, what about my soul?”

    Roy’s face turned pale.

    I felt it instinctively.

    That the ownership of his soul still belongs to Christian.

    That is, Roy was in a position where he had to follow Christian’s orders, whether he liked it or not.

    Roy broke into a cold sweat as he recalled Christian’s last words.

    – See you later.

    It was a greeting that seemed to foretell a dark future for Roy.

    * ? ?* ? ?*

    Chris rode his horse at full speed without stopping.

    Before long, we crossed the border and arrived at our destination.

    It was the Khazar County.

    “master?!”

    The Baekjakyeong miners, whom they had not seen in a long time, cried out in surprise when they saw Chris.

    “What about father?”

    “I am here.”

    It’s been a long time since I heard such a deep voice.

    A middle-aged man with a similar appearance to Christian emerged from among the mines.

    His father was Count Khazar.

    But Count Kazar’s face was strange.

    It was split in half.

    ‘Did you have a hard time because of this incident? I don’t think you were that kind of weak-willed.’

    I was puzzled, but Count Khazar explained the reason.

    “What on earth happened? I heard you went missing.”

    “yes?”

    A man next to me spoke.

    “The Count, thinking that the young master had passed away, was planning to take revenge on Prince Ashde and Count Liberi of the main family.”

    “ah.”

    Chris understood the situation.

    Chris deliberately hid his tracks.

    Count Kazar misunderstood that as Chris having gone missing in an ambush.

    ‘I had a fight with the pursuers sent by Ashed, so it was a situation that could have easily been misunderstood. I’m sorry.’

    Count Kazar examined Chris’s body and let out a deep sigh of relief.

    Chris felt embarrassed as he felt how worried Count Kazar was about him.

    He wasn’t used to having someone worrying about him.

    In his previous life, most of the people around him wanted him to die and disappear.

    “I’m sorry. Actually, I had something to do and was hiding from you.”

    “Day?”

    “that is….”

    Chris briefly explained what had happened in the County of Bursen.

    It was revealed that Baron Borde was in collusion with the Countess of Ribery.

    “How on earth?”

    Count Kazar looked very surprised.

    You accomplished that in just a few days?

    “…I was lucky.”

    It was difficult to explain the exact process, so I just gave a vague explanation, and Count Kazar stuck out his tongue.

    I noticed that my son, whom I hadn’t seen in a long time, had become an even greater monster.

    ‘As expected, my son.’

    Count Kazar said, holding back the rising pride.

    “But why didn’t you tell the truth to your family right away?”

    “That way, we won’t be able to hit them properly.”

    “!!”

    “Even if the truth is revealed, Count Eshd and Count Ribery will use their power to try to cover this up.”

    That was an accurate point.

    “…Then, you, surely?”

    “Yes, that’s right.”

    Chris nodded firmly.

    “The bloody punishment of the mine.”

    “!!”

    “I intend to make them pay with my own blood.”

    It meant to strike down Count Liberi!

    ‘under.’

    Count Kazar clenched his fists.

    I heard the story from Alos, the messenger sent by Chris.

    – Prince Christian has ordered us to prepare to attack the Count of Ribery.

    Actually, I didn’t understand it at all.

    How can they possibly hit the Count of Liberi?

    It’s not a question of strength.

    The justification was the problem.

    If you attack Count Liberi for no reason, the Dark Magic House will not stay still. It will become the Dark Magic House’s public enemy.

    But things changed thanks to Chris’s work in the County of Bursen.

    Now there’s a justification.

    “The Count of Liberi not only colluded with the Allied bastards, but also framed our Count of Khazar. Since the evidence has already been secured, no one will be able to say anything even if we punish them with blood.”

    There Chris used an additional trick.

    They covered up the fact that the truth had been revealed and blinded the eyes of the Countess of Liberi.

    The Count of Liberi would have been letting his guard down, thinking that the Count of Qajar was busy fighting the Count of Bursen, so he would have been struck by a bolt from the blue.

    “…That’s really amazing.”

    Count Kazar let out another surprised voice.

    There was nothing that was not admirable.

    I felt like shouting that this great kid was my son.

    “I was worried when you said you would become the prince of the main house, but my worries were for nothing. There is no one more suitable to be the master of the Dark House than you.”

    Chris chuckled.

    “But is that okay?”

    “what?”

    “It will be a bloody affair. If you do not wish it, Father, I will handle it in another way.”

    “this guy.”

    Count Kazar chuckled and ruffled Christian’s hair.

    “What do you think I am? I am Count Khazar. Do you even know how many heads of the Ben Union bastards I have?”

    “…….”

    “More than anything, they are enemies who tried to harm you.”

    “!!”

    Count Khazar gave him a cold look.

    “You have no idea how much I hesitated to cut off their heads after you disappeared. I held back because I wasn’t sure what had happened to you. If you had shown up even a little later, I would have gone and cut off their heads without hesitation.”

    Chris kept his mouth shut.

    A mind that cares for oneself.

    negative.

    I’m not familiar with it.

    He awkwardly touched his hair, which had been touched by Count Khazar’s hand.

    Chris turned his head to the side, trying to feel unnecessarily sentimental.

    “Then let’s go right away. Are you ready?”

    “Yes, everything is already in order. Everyone, get on your horses! The target is Count Liberi!”

    “Wow!!”

    The minions of the Black Swamp Knights belonging to Count Kazar shouted.

    As Christ was about to mount the horse, someone approached him hesitantly.

    My brother was Teren.

    “…older brother.”

    “Title.”

    “…Your Honorable King Emperor Majesty.”

    “Yeah, what’s going on?”

    “…….”

    Tern hesitated, then spoke in a small voice.

    “I’m glad you came back safely.”

    Chris looked at Tern with a new look for a moment.

    Terndo was deeply troubled by Christian’s disappearance, as his face was half-turned.

    Tern stuttered, embarrassed.

    “No, of course I wasn’t worried! It’s just… I was worried that if something happened to my brother, there would be no one to help me with my spell! I just said that out of a calculating and selfish mind.”

    “Really? Your eyes are red. Are you crying because you’re worried about this hyung?”

    “Absolutely not!”

    Huh?

    It was a reaction that seemed like real crying.

    Chris’s face turned blank as he recalled the sight of Tern crying while looking at the moon outside the window, thinking of him.

    “…Thank you for your concern.”

    “Don’t worry…!”

    “As a thank you, let’s have a duel next time.”

    “…I will decline the sparring.”

    Tern’s face turned pale, as if he was remembering the last conversation they had before they broke up.

    At that time, Tern was seriously beaten by Chris and became bedridden for a long time.

    “Why? Don’t you enjoy getting beat up by this guy? I’ll get stronger and be able to beat him up even better.”

    “Oh, come on!”

    Chris chuckled at the sight of Tern losing his temper and turning away.

    It was a bright smile, unlike usual.

    Chris admitted to himself.

    They are his family.

    * ? ?* ? ?*

    Late at night.

    The last name of the Count of Liberi.

    The lower-level minions kept yawning.

    “I’m bored. Should we play a card game?”

    “Are you in your right mind?”

    “Well, it doesn’t matter. There’s no way anyone would attack here.”

    “but.”

    The Counts of Liberi, like the Counts of Qajar, are located on the border of the Gold Cross.

    It should be a tense border area with the Alliance, the main enemy of the Demon Empire, but the situation was the opposite.

    Because it’s been a long time since the great war with the Union.

    At best, the situation is one of nerve-wracking warfare at the border, and it has only been a long time since the enemy has advanced all the way to this castle.

    ‘On the contrary, the border with the Four Kings is much more dangerous.’

    It was funny, but it was true.

    The most tense border of the Dark Maga is the border with the Sawang Castle, which is also a magical empire.

    The border with the Gold Cross side was peaceful, so everyone was relaxed.

    “It’s already late at night and I’m bored. Should we play for a bit?”

    “Yeah, I brought some alcohol too.”

    “Hehehe, isn’t that a bit too serious?”

    It was while we were babbling like that.

    thud.

    Suddenly, one of the mines fell forward.

    “What? Why are you like that… Ugh.”

    It was a raid!

    “!!”

    Two people were killed in an instant, and only then did the remaining Mine try to sound the alarm, but it was too late.

    Phew!

    The sword pierced the heart of the last mine.

    A captivating woman’s face emerges from the darkness.

    It was Merlin!

    She was infiltrating Count Liberi’s castle under Chris’ orders, and she made a move!

    Her body was covered in blood, as if it wasn’t their first time.

    “Those scumbags. These guys are also the Dark Maga’s minions.”

    Merlin gave a momentary look of contempt, then jumped down the wall.

    Behind the gate.

    The minions guarding the locked gate shouted in surprise.

    “Who, who are you?!”

    “Who are you? The enemy. Do you call that a question?”

    Phew!

    A fierce wind blew.

    Merlin is a 4-star mine with a strong chance of reaching 5-star level soon.

    There was no way that the ordinary gatekeepers could handle it.

    The guards shouted urgently.

    “The enemy! This is an attack!!”
