Sword Pilgrim 123
Sword Pilgrim chapter 123
Bam!
“Next.
“Kuh-uh!”
As soon as I got back to the villa, all I wanted to do was hit squad six.
“Useless bastards. How can they break the spear of the empire if they can’t even hold their own like this?”
“The general was too strong!”
“You are too weak. Next time.”
The sixth unit, which gathered in groups of three to Sparring me, was beaten and fell as they went up to the Sparring grounds.
But not so bad.
It was because I could finally tolerate a little bit of what the sixth unit was capable of.
“‘At this level, it’s about time we fought the Golden Lion Knights, it’s about time we were similar.’
From the start, the sixth unit has benefited a lot from the fact that I am the captain.
We’ve usually been assigned simple missions and have mainly been practicing.
I was not involved in the Order to the extent that it could be called my SS.
This was partly because the Pope, who trusted me, and Archbishop Albert, who was appointed by the Archbishop, told me not to touch the sixth platform.
Hero of Salvation
The Queen’s Knight
Such a ringing in my ears put me at ease.
Not only that, but with the seniority method I had given them and their training, etc., their abilities were growing rapidly.
Diego, the division commander, and Joseph have already surpassed the lower volume and are aiming for the upper volume.
Of course, I’m not going to give them away easily.
“‘If I can be certain that they are my people…’
There was nothing more I could do, since the rest of the sixth squad was getting stronger by the seniority method.
If they practiced like they were now, they would naturally become stronger.
Of course, TD Potion also played a role, so I could say I was lucky.
Apart from him, though, the sound that came out of my mouth wasn’t good.
Pan! Poof! Poof! Poof!
“Whoa!”
“Ssa, help me!
“Oh, my God! I’m dying! I’m going to die!”
Everything was already scattered as I smiled secretly and beat the sixth platform to death.
“‘Weak bastards. Rest.”
As I left the weaklings behind and got off the Sparring grounds, Orphin handed me a towel as if he’d been waiting for me.
“Good work, guys.”
“Yeah. Have you made any progress?”
I glanced at him and saw that his prayers were steady.
He looked completely different than before, when he had been a little anxious.
“Yes, I think I’m finally finding my way.”
He said, “Good for you. Can you do your job?”
“‘brans was quite versatile, wasn’t he? I can’t believe he handled so much on his own. I’m quite surprised.”
“Yeah, …….”
The brans now left the mansion.
Cedric, who had conversed with the Queen, had gone to pick up the Baru tribe of Barberiem at her request, and had taken the brans with him on his journey.
It was entirely at my request.
“The brans are more suited to fists than swords.
Since he had no talent with the sword, it was better for him to become a follower of the Twin Gods.
Cedric was going to make the brans useless at my request.
“Come to think of it, I would have done a lot of it.”
He cleaned and cooked at the mansion, of course, but he also managed everything in general, even the supplies that the sixth squad needed, and at times he even took it upon himself to be his own errand boy, taking good care of them.
Of course, the northern knights and Livan and Linny.
When it came down to Emily, brans took care of them all.
When I think about it, I don’t know how I managed to get so much work done by myself.
“‘You had your uses.’
I notice it again when it’s gone.
What brans had done was now being done by Orphin, Arlen, and Aaron.
Handing him a towel, he went up to his office and opened the window to get a quick glance at the entire view.
In one corner, the sixth unit was wailing, and in the other corner, the Kaladi children were training.
They were the so-called “Jervain” trainees.
Left to themselves, the numbers grew and grew, and the system was set up.
“There was a rumor going around that three of the best from the Jervain training camp would be sent to the Royal Academy each year, but before long, it had solidified as truth.
I hadn’t intended to, but it wasn’t a bad idea, so I told them to do it.
It wasn’t difficult for me to do so.
The grand gates of the mansion were guarded by Peter with a yawn, Allen greeted the visiting nobles, and Aaron managed the gifts they sent.
Once word got out that he was going to study swords with the queen, she sent him various items even if he had to stay put here and there.
The more money, the better, so I didn’t turn them down.
It’s going well.
“Gregory and Dexter’s group have been quite successful, so we should be ready to go.”
I informed him of all the swordsmanship theories I was going to share with the Queen. Currently, there was nothing more to teach. The queen was an excellent swordswoman, but she hadn’t had the chance to fight in real life, and her skills were slow to improve.
It was unavoidable due to her position.
So I shouldn’t have interfered with her.
“Esdar also went to look for the sacred object.
Her first mission as a paladin.
She left to search for the lost holy relics in the pews. It seemed that she was going to look around the holy places spread across the different continents.
She would find them without difficulty, so there was no need to worry too much.
She would find it easily, so there was no need to worry.
“Bishop Mirimon also destroyed himself.”
Extremist Emir
Milliman’s actions were exposed by Olkar and he was put in the dungeons of the Order.
He seduced the fight against the Empire in a different way than the Archbishop, but was cut down for his mistaken beliefs for the good of the Order and the Kingdom, but will rot in prison for the rest of his life.
“Time will take care of the rest, I’ll just have to do what I have to do.”
It was time to leave.
* * * *
Orphin: “Are you really coming?”
Orphin.
He looked at me with a worried look on his face.
An article that had come down from the North for me.
But I had no choice.
“It’s not a road I can take anyone down. Not before I’m your master.”
“‘I am a pilgrim.
🅼🅰🅺🅴 🆂🆄🆁🅴 🆈🅾🆄 🆁🅴🅰🅳🅸🅽🅶 🅰🆃 korea nmtl . onl ine
I must make my pilgrimage.
Before I find my sword.
I must go up on an endless pilgrimage to test myself and endure the trials of God.
“My pilgrimage is in itself a test that God has given me, a challenge that he recommends to me. That’s why I can’t take you guys with me.”
Because, frankly, I can’t afford to pay attention to them.
I got the Light Dragon Sword, but I had no reason to make a sword collection out of it.
Not only did it not fill my heart, but by nature, koryu does not need to be examined.
The heart itself is the testing ground.
There was no reason for that, since it is a very unique sword among the phantom swords.
Besides.
I haven’t decided yet.
What should be my sword?
“What sword should I put in my soul?
Black without conviction is weak.
Black tools are nothing.
I have felt them as I have reached the world.
“Where is Emily? Is it the academy?
“I contacted her yesterday, she should be arriving soon.”
“Yes.”
That’s good then.
I took one last look at what I was taking with me and went up to the office of the mansion.
I went up to the mansion’s office, where the person who had been waiting for me was already sitting on the couch.
“You’re here?
“Jenos.”
He was from an eastern family.
He was Jenos von Gradus.
“What is it?
“I’ve come to give you a gift, and to say hello.”
“A gift?”
“Answer.”
He handed me a small box from his pocket.
I opened it and saw that it contained cookies.
“?”
“Prine’s cookies. You’ve always wanted to eat them. I went to a lot of trouble to get them.”
“Hmmm …… did they find out?”
“I got a lot.”
I ate the cookies .
Misinterpretation.
The cookies were incredibly crispy and melted in my mouth.
The sweetness of the cream spread thinly inside the cookie seemed to coat my tongue.
“Delicious.
It’s Prine’s cookies, after all.
A single cookie is worthy of capturing the heart of the kingdom…. ….
“I’m not sure what to say.
I noticed that there were no cookies in the box.
“……?”
I looked up to find Jenos chewing on a cookie in his mouth.
The sight of his expressionless face squirming in his mouth made me feel wildly uncomfortable before my anger.
“…….”
I wonder if it was ridiculous.
Why would you eat it with that on it? I couldn’t even get the words out.
I’m not sure what to say, but I’d like to know.
“He said he was leaving.
Are you changing the subject?
Not having the energy to question him, Callius answered soullessly, “We have to go.
“We have to go.
“Yes.”
Jenos was silent for a while.
Genos was silent for a while, only scratching the tip of his nose, which was marked with a sacred scar.
He seemed to know that what he had done was embarrassing. He cleared his throat and continued.
“The Golden Lion wanted me to pass on his greetings.”
“Is he okay?”
“‘He lost to his brother (sister), so the shock will be great. But he will overcome. Because the lion is not a weakling.”
We soon heard that Luteon had been defeated.
Luteon was growing faster than expected.
But there was no problem.
Luteon had lived, and I had achieved comparable growth.
Luteon is a recognized genius in the classroom.
His growth potential is outstanding.
It’s only a matter of time before he becomes a master, because the more time I’ve been given, the more time they’ve been given.
“How long do you intend to stay away?”
“Three years.”
“Yeah, that’s a long time.”
“I think the kingdom will be fine.”
There was a rumor going around that Gregory and Dexter were already making bodies of superior quality.
There was still no word on Kang-Sing-Gum, but he didn’t care.
”If you just want to reform the sword, I don’t need to do anything.
“I’ve given you all the hints.
The rest is up to you.
“I’ve heard that the academy’s students are fond of you. Many of them were eagerly awaiting your education. I guess that means many of them want to emulate the swordsmanship of heroes.”
I stretched my neck longer.
Jenos had told me to hurry back.
He wanted me to come back from my pilgrimage and teach swordplay to the students of the Academy.
I asked him why, as if I could almost understand it.
“Do you smell it?”
“A lot.”
Jenos narrowed his eyes.
Gladus’ nose smelled.
Even smells he couldn’t smell.
“It smells of death.”
“Death is like a companion to a knight. Especially if it’s a pilgrim.”
🅼🅰🅺🅴 🆂🆄🆁🅴 🆈🅾🆄 🆁🅴🅰🅳🅸🅽🅶 🅰🆃 korea nmtl . onl ine
“Don’t die. I don’t want to interact with anyone who doesn’t keep their word.”
“I agree.”
Chuck.
As I shook hands with Jenos, I heard a knock at the door.
“Count, from Emily Young-ae…” ….”
Jenos shuddered as he looked at the door.
Then he blushed.
“?”
And Orphin frowned.
There seemed to be something between them.
It was like he was sick of playing hard to get and his temper was back. But it was none of my business.
“I’m coming.
“Yes.”
Genos remained in his original position until Callius left with Orphin, closing the door behind him. Then he blushed…
“Is this what fate has in store for us?”
He let out a whimper.

The dining room of the mansion
Emily and Callius sat at one end of the rectangular table and the other end of the table.
Swoosh, swoosh.
The father and son cutting the steak on the plate was as similar as looking in a mirror.
The act of stabbing the meat with a fork and tasting it in the mouth without wasting any time was as rare as this.
It showed the dignity and class of a nobleman.
“Emily.”
“Yes.”
Callius said, putting down his knife and fork and wiping his mouth with a napkin.
“We’ll be away for a while.”
A brief moment of silence.
Emily set down the dishes, too.
“‘I know ……. Your father is a Pyrolim.”
Callius was concerned.
But by the look in Emily’s eyes, he didn’t need to worry anymore.
He was afraid that she would follow him like she had in the north.
But this time she seemed to know exactly what she meant.
“I’ll be waiting.”
Steady.
He chewed on each word as he answered.
Callius chuckled.
It was like a child who didn’t want to be away from his parents was struggling to understand.
She thought he was very mature, but Emily was still very young.
“It’s going to take a long time.”
“How long ……?”
Over three years.
A long time indeed for a child.
But a choice that had to be made.
“Callius had to be stronger.
This pilgrimage was different than the last.
It was dangerous.
But it was only through danger that he would become stronger.
Because danger can be an opportunity.
“Where are you going?”
“It’s a secret.”
Emily puffed out her cheeks.
Emily puffed out her cheeks, but didn’t ask any more questions.
Callius laughed lightly as he finished his meal and even drank tea with Emily.
The taste of the bad tea Emily was making him.
It seemed to make him quite nostalgic.
* * * *
A damp dawn
Just before the sun rose, the quiet sky was dark and even the fog was thick.
Callius brought a single horse and climbed onto it. “Callius had brought a horse with him and mounted it.
We said our goodbyes in full.
It was not in Callius’ nature to leave noisily.
So he was going to leave quietly.
“I’ll be waiting for you.”
“‘Peter, take care of this place.
“Leave it to me.”
I will, if it costs me my life.
Peter watched Callius’ back for a moment and then looked again and again as he disappeared on his horse into the mist.
What will you do now, sir?”
Petro averted his gaze and looked to a corner of the tree . Then, from behind him, Jervain’s Younger slowly walked out.
I’ve heard a lot about what happened.
She had grown up without a father since she was a child, and when she finally met him, he had left her soon after. When I came after him, he left again soon after.
Any normal girl would have been in tears and withdrawn from the world.
But Emily was not so sure.
“I’ll get stronger.”
“What?”
“My father doesn’t need to get any stronger, but he’s on a pilgrimage.”
She was right.
Callius had already taken a great deal of credit. The killer would have chosen a pinch instead of proceeding.
But he had left.
That meant he had a reason to get even stronger.
Emily didn’t miss it.
“He’s a man who never does anything for nothing.”
If it is necessary, he will do it.
That’s what Emily saw in Callius. If a person like that moves, there must be a reason.
“So I’ll be strong too.”
With those last words, Emily turned away, her sword still in her hand.
The parent and child walked down different paths.
Peter’s mouth drew a smiling reciprocal smile as he watched the two.
