Funnily enough, Lee Han has never exchanged names with the spearman, even though he has fought with him.
Well, from the first time we met, we were fighting as if we were going to kill each other, so where would we have time to exchange names?
That’s why.
“Lac de Duron, is that you?”
After the battle ended, the knight of Tristan called the spearman that, and Lee Han learned the name of the knight who fought him.
Lark. Maybe that’s the name of that spearman.
It was the first time that Lee Han had properly learned the names of the spearmen, but it was not time for him or them to exchange names and become friends.
I didn’t even have the heart to do that.
Thump.
“Lee Han-kyung?”
“Where are you going…?”
As he turned to walk away, Galahad and the knights of Trisatan blinked.
I wonder where to go now that I’ve defeated all the enemies.
To these questions:
“Where are you going? I have to go and finish off the guy who summoned these assassins.”
He confidently asked why they were asking such an obvious question, and the two knights, who had been unable to understand his words for a moment, were later startled.
… … because he understood that he intended to question the Sultan!
“Lee Han-kyung, I guess that’s….”
“Calm down. Although you have a suspicion, you have no evidence. If you dare to touch the Sultan, it will become a diplomatic problem.”
It was common sense advice.
No matter how crazy he may seem about women now, a Sultan is a Sultan.
He would have been thorough in handling the matter, and probably left no trace of having hired an assassin.
“Is that guy certain?”
“… We think so too, but if the Sultan keeps evading the issue, that’s the end of it.”
“Hmm.”
“Attacking the Sultan like this will only result in self-satisfaction.”
So, for him to attack the Sultan is nothing more than venting his anger on the basis of suspicious circumstances.
but.
“Just don’t leave any traces. Give me an hour or two and I’m confident I can get anything out of his mouth. So don’t worry.”
Lee Han had no intention of leaving the guy alone.
All suspicion but no evidence?
Don’t worry, he’s confident he’ll get the evidence out of his mouth.
Of course, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to test how much of a pain I can endure.
at that time….
First memory.
“…what?”
“Don’t act rashly.”
“… … .”
There was a guy who blocked his way.
The spearman, the guy, blocked his way, and Lee Han warned him with his eyes half-open.
“-I have never looked after anyone who has touched my territory.”
Yes, to a knight who values principle, his actions would seem like nothing more than a fool venting his anger.
but.
‘A guy with a criminal mindset is bound to get into trouble. He has to get into trouble now.’
What a scary race of people with a criminal mindset.
Especially those who have power are even more shameless.
…you will be sure that you will never be punished.
Lee Han could never stand to see that happen.
‘I have no intention of waiting until he causes his next accident!’
The common romance novel-style solution to the problem is, ‘You have to endure until you find the evidence, and even criminals can be lenient if they are handsome and rich.’ – this is a miraculous logic, but there is no such ‘romance novel-style logic’ in Lee Han’s dictionary.
If you have committed a sin and done something bad, you should be punished accordingly!
“Get out of the way, you rascal.”
“You’re such an insolent thug…!”
The window squealed with indignation, his eyes wide open.
“This idiot! How can he become a knight!”
“I have no intention of arguing with you.”
Are you trying to stop him by talking about chivalry?
Anyway, this is why old-fashioned articles are a problem.
It’s the way of the world that not everything can be solved with chivalry… -.
“-Follow the order! I go first!”
“??”
… Lee Han blinked at the sudden declaration.
I think I heard wrong.
But as if he had not heard wrong, the spearman shouted again.
“Didn’t you hear? I told you to keep your order! You dared to ruin the young lady’s first party! I shouldn’t have tormented you for an hour or two, but for the rest of your life!”
“… I don’t know what to say, but is that okay with you?”
“If you touch Galahad, even the Emperor of the Empire must die!”
“… This person is even more evil than I thought?”
Lee Han had a gut feeling.
This guy is worse than me, he’s not like you.
perhaps…….
‘Chi, can we become friends, Do?’
Lee Han felt a strange sense of kinship with this crazy guy.
… … It’s so disgusting.

“-The connection with the crows has been lost.”
“… Ha, I see. I guess I shouldn’t expect much from crows. They’re useless.”
Inside the returning carriage.
The Sultan smiled bitterly.
As if to say, you shouldn’t expect anything from a flock of crows.
“sultan….”
However, the escort warrior reporting the report knew.
How much effort Salah put into this work and how much property and damage he suffered.
Even though Saladin was the wealthiest sultan, hiring Assassins in large numbers would be a daunting task for a while.
‘They are famous for not even paying compensation when things fail…’
But on the other hand, Assassins are a group with a high success rate in requests, which allows them to maintain such shamelessness.
‘The name Assassin is not called
But it failed… .
“Even if it’s fallen, it’s still a pendragon, is that what you’re saying…?”
That must mean that Pandragon stopped them.
It also means that the assassin was captured without any noise.
‘How many people in the Sultanate can capture an Assassin without making a fuss?’
The first thing that comes to mind is Sultan Maham’s warriors, who are said to be unmatched in terms of military power alone, but even they have suffered significant losses in the past when fighting the Assassins.
Of course, considering environmental factors and the fact that it is a foreign country, it is inevitable that we will be one step behind Pendragon.
“… No, all of that is just excuses. In the end, the Assassins failed, and it was just their incompetence. Isn’t that right, Salman?”
“… … Yes.”
“Then I guess we can prepare the second one.”
“Yes, Sultan, but if you do that, you might get caught….”
Since I failed to move the Assassin, I will prepare the next move.
Salman was terrified by the Sultan’s declaration.
Even though he left no traces, the Pandragon side must already be suspicious of the Sultan.
But if they try to do something like this again, it will be difficult to hide it, and the royal family will send a dispatch to formally investigate them.
Of course, that doesn’t mean we can dare punish the Sultan.
As long as the Sultan is the king of a country.
but.
‘If you’re treated like an uninvited guest, you’ll have no choice but to get kicked out.’
And if you get kicked out… .
‘Will the Sultan be able to return safely?’
Island!
[An unfortunate accident, the ship the Sultan was on suddenly sank…]
[The Sultanate is engulfed in flames, and the power struggle begins due to Sultan Salah’s absence!]
[A suspicious accident?! Was the Sultan assassinated by another Sultan?]
Gulp… .
Salman was covered in cold sweat as if he had been hit by a shower.
I keep seeing creepy articles that will take up the front pages of future newspapers.
It can’t be anything but a terrible future.
However, Salah was full of confidence, making his subordinates’ worries seem meaningless.
He hasn’t given up yet, as if he’s determined to achieve his goal.
“The sails have already been unfurled. How can we stop a ship from setting sail?”
“sultan….”
“If we drop anchor now, we’re just going to sink. You don’t want that, do you?”
“… … .”
“Salman, trust me. I have never been defeated before!”
Sultan Salah. He was just one of the countless children of the previous Sultan, but after a fierce power struggle, he rose to the great position of Sultan in his twenties.
There were crises, but he is where he is now thanks to his followers, good luck, and outstanding abilities.
Honey, even though he failed, he did not despair or get scared.
Because I had the confidence that I could definitely achieve it.
“If you succeed, the reward will be much more valuable than the risk you took.”
Since ancient times, investing has been a success if you get a bigger amount of money than you lost.
Just pay it back, pay it back!
‘Mystery’, if only I could obtain that splendid power.
If only that were the case… .
“You can gain more than you lose.”
In the Sultan’s dictionary there is only progress.
‘… Oh, come to think of it, there was one more thing I could gain.’
Salah thought of the woman he had met today, a jewel of beauty and mystery beyond mystery.
Galahad’s adopted daughter and a sorceress with the most valuable mysteries.
However, her splendid beauty was more enchanting than the fame mentioned, and Salah wanted to get his hands on the girl by any means necessary.
‘Irene, Irene Windler.’
It seems that we will have to postpone the task of taking the mystery out of that beautiful jewel.
Because I felt like I had to keep that jewel for myself.
‘I will have everything, and I will put everything under my control…!’
“Accidentally,” Salah clenched his fist.
He is the Sultan, the embodiment of power, who can get his hands on everything he wants.
There was no such thing as giving up for him… .
Kwajik!
“-?”
… … At that moment, Salah lost his mind.
His mind couldn’t keep up with the events that had happened in an instant, and he called out the name of his subordinate who was falling.
“… Is it worth living?”
The escort warrior Salman.
In terms of pendragons, he was at the level of a knight commander, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that his skills were the best in the Sultanate, considering that he was the one protecting the Sultan himself.
But that kind of life is… .
Puhwaaaaak!
“Ugh! Sultan, run away! Run away… .”
“Living!!”
The escort warrior’s arm was torn in two.
By something that suddenly broke through the carriage window.
“…a treaty, a stone?”
And Salah saw.
That what had cut his proud warrior’s arm in two was not a weapon or an arrow, but a simple pebble.
But that pebble.
Kwaaaaang!!
“!!!?”
He pounded the carriage indiscriminately, displaying an intensity that made countless protective spells seem insignificant.
The protective magic that even an ogre could not penetrate, which had been stacked ten times, was crumbling like a sand castle.
In real time-!
“Hey, it’s a surprise attack! Protect the Sultan!”
“Protect the Sultan…, Keukkeuk!”
Kwajik!
The hundred warriors guarding the Sultan were in a state of panic.
There were more and more people who died or became disabled because they couldn’t stop even a single flying pebble, and Salah had no choice but to tremble and bow his head to the ground.
“W, what the heck is this… -.”
Phew!
“…?”
Gulp… !
Salah found out too late.
A small pebble eventually brushed past his ear,
Percussion… .
His ear was also cut off like the arm of the bodyguard that was torn in two.
“Kwaaaaak!”
He writhe in pain.
* * *
“… This is quite difficult.”
“If it’s difficult, tell me and I’ll do it.”
“Wait a minute. A bet is a bet. The loser gets out.”
“… … .”
“Who told you to do that?”
The knight, who had won a simple game of rock-paper-scissors before coming here, smiled proudly and kicked the pebble again.
It was a sniping attack that took place at a radius of about 2km, but the knight’s extraordinary skills made it possible for him to carry out this absurd sniping attack, or rather, stone-throwing.
Tristan’s knight, who was watching this, asked him about another strange technique.
“What kind of technology is that?”
The day before, he was walking on air, but this time he’s using cobblestones to show off his sniping skills that are even better than those of an archer.
To these questions:
“It’s not like I have any skills or anything, I just used to do some pox in the past.”
“Po, port… ?”
“There is something like that.”
Since ancient times, the Korean people have been experts in sniping and are a people who enjoy long-range weapons such as stone weapons and archery.
Even though it was a previous life, Jjambbam, who had once belonged to the long-distance clan, was not going anywhere.
“I say this again, Lee Han Kyung. Everything else is fine, but please… .”
“I know, you just have to not kill them, and leave no traces. So, like this.”
Phew!
-It was just a little bit troubling.
what….
“The person involved may wonder if it would be better to die.”
“… … .”
“Oh, and let’s leave the corpses of the assassins here. I think it’ll be more fun that way, don’t you think?”
“…under.”
The two knights thought.
If possible, I think we should avoid meeting this human as an enemy.
Because he couldn’t help but be a vicious and cruel person… .
“Huh, for a thug, he’s smart.”
“yes?”
“It’s just a bit crude. It would be better if it had the flags of other Sultans carved into it instead of just the corpse.”
“…It’s not bad, is it?”
… and I thought it would be a great misfortune for the Sultan that there was more than one villain.
These were two knights who were serious about harassing tanning thugs.
