The Old Knight of a Frontier District

1.

- Where are we?

Jog woke up and didn't know where he was for a moment.

And I remembered.

It's a noble mansion somehow.

And this is the king's capital of the kingdom of Parzam.

Jog came to the Kingdom of Parzam to help Bald Lauen.

And then I pushed myself into the house where Bardo lived, and I liked the good food, so I settled here.

"Jog, are you awake?

A voice came from outside the room.

Colin Cruzer.

Ah.

Cruzer brought in a bucket and a towel.

Good morning, Jog.

2.

After finishing his late breakfast, Jog rode out of the gates of King's Landing on a tazt and ran around the grasslands.Once every few days, if you don't exercise as much as you want, Tazt will be in a bad mood.

After all, horses are living creatures for running.Among them, Tazuto likes to run extraordinarily, and is blessed with strong muscles that combine instantaneous power and endurance.

He made the tazt drink water in the river, and Jog also drank water.

I didn't just drink it.I sweated my upper body into the river.

Colin did the same.

When Colin filled his stomach with dried meat and bread, Jog turned his back on the tree and stretched out a little further into the mountainous area.

A cool breeze blows over the long stretched black hair of Jog.

The time was relaxed.

"Nevertheless, I didn't expect Jog to be so stubborn.I'm surprised. "

"A step-in-law?

"Huh? I guess that's why you came here, because you lost to Admiral Baldo and came under his command?

"You've already done that.Fight a herd of beasts in the castle somehow. "

"Rhodevan Castle. Even so, the beast is really scary.But Jog beats and kills the beast from one end and blows it away, so it's amazing.That's the son of the Beast Killer. "

Hmm.

Jog's foster father, Peasel Ward, was a magnificent "Beast Killer."The nickname "Beast Killer" weighed heavily because there were no knights other than the House of Telsia but the one who defeated the Beast on a one-on-one basis.

"If you're not my stepsister, why did you come all this way?That's not all. After I left Rhodevan Castle, I kept Marshal Baldo informed about the invasion, but what was that for?

Jog kept quiet and refused to answer Colin's question, which was his subordinate.

"I don't know where the fuck he is, but he'll be in trouble when he goes to kill me."

"Ah, I haven't given up yet."

Colin is familiar with Jog's obsession with burning Bardo down.Colin has been spending time with Jog since he was still a bad boy.

And after the death of his foster father, Jog, who enjoyed his fighting spirit and energetic energy, found an enemy named Bardo, and I don't think it distorted him badly.

"Then I don't know what to do.You're going to take Marshal Baldo down someday, aren't you?Why are you here to help me? "

"To be strong."

"Heh? Oh, my God, Jog.You haven't trained since you came to this country.I used to practice with a lot of knights and soldiers in Gaineria. "

"Don't do that.I'm not adding anything. "

"Is there anything I can add here?

Ah.

"What's going on?"

"Uuuuuuuuuu. I'll go to bed for a while.Don't talk anymore. "

3.

Jog remembers exactly when he became aware of the name of Bardo-Lauen.

When he was ten, Jog was adopted by House Ward.

Speaking to his foster father at dinner, Paklea's knights were all knights who could defeat the Beast, and he said it was the best gathering on the perimeter.

"But there's no knight who can beat a parcel, is there?

Jog admired the monster-like purse, which was gorgeous and slender.I didn't think there were any knights stronger than Pearl.

"No, the Knight of Paklea is different.A knight named Bardo-Lauen may be on the other side of me, or more. "

"I can't believe this happened!

While denying it, Jog carved Baldo's name into his heart.

Eventually, Purzel died and Jog looked like Bardo on the battlefield when he was sixteen, but he was twisted without a hand.

Bardo didn't even point his sword at Jog and kicked him off the horse, so Jog's self-esteem was badly damaged.

Next time I see you, I'll kill you.

Then Jog turned his rough heart towards sword training.I even decided to learn how to fight a knight.

And when he was twenty two years old, it was time to fight Bald again.

Bardo took Jog's Rigid Sword, which no one could accept, with a shield in his left hand, and his right sword slashed Jog's chest.

I couldn't believe it.

I couldn't believe I lost, but I couldn't believe I lost that way.

< Storm > Jog Ward waves his sword with both hands, but he can't hold his shield with both hands.Especially if you want to take a shield with one hand, the shield will be blown away and the hand with the shield will bend.

However, Bardo took Jog's great sword lightly with one hand, did not lose his posture, and slashed Jog with his right sword as usual.If I'd been chased there, Jog wouldn't be alive.In other words, Bardo-Lawen once again despised Jog Ward.

Jog, who became a mass of anger, polished up my strength and finally confronted Bardo with absolute confidence at the age of twenty-eight.

But Bardo couldn't use his right hand.I don't know if my muscles hurt or if it was a disease, but I couldn't use my right hand anyway.

There is no point in knocking on a bard that cannot be used in your right hand.With rage, Jog interrupted the match and left.

Not long afterwards, Bardo Lauen boarded Coendella's castle.

When he heard that, Jog ran to the castle and challenged Bardo, who was leaving.

Baldo's temper at this time was terrifying.With a small sword for self-defense, he grabbed Jog's great sword from the front and pushed it in with a fearsome force.

Pressed by Baldo's incredible fighting spirit and strength, Jog laid his knees on the ground and looked up at Baldo.

I thought it was the eyes of the strong.

The eyes of the mighty, who believe in my strength and doubt it, and crush and advance everything that stands in their way.

As I looked straight at Bardo's eyes, I felt an unknown joy rushing up my spine.

I trembled and trembled.An unexpected laugh spilled.

What Purcell said was true.The mightiest knight on earth is now in front of him.

When you destroy this mighty enemy, you will know the supreme pleasure.That's what Jog thought.

4.

The third confrontation took place in the desert in eastern Guinea.

Knowing that Baldo had gone on a journey, Jog threw away his territory and jumped out.

I tightened up Uncle Linz and heard that Bardo had boarded the boat and crossed over to the Ova, so Jog also crossed over to the Ova.

When I was going north on the desert, I was persuaded to remain in Gaineria by the strange edge of the prince, the king of Gaineria.

At first, Colin was willing to refuse, but he said that he could find Baldo if he borrowed Genelian troops, so he decided to accept the offer of the Crown Prince conditionally.The condition is to help you explore the hostile, and once you find the hostile, no matter what the circumstances, Jog's priority is to settle with the hostile.

Then, suddenly, he was appointed by the general, and suddenly he became a general when he was exposing bandits and beasts while searching for Baldo.

And we found Baldo.

A green subhuman who was with Baldo ran into the jog, but the jog ran off with a horse and fell down with a rough move that suddenly turned the course on the brink of contact with the opponent.

At that time, Jog certainly saw Bardo with a stunned face and laughed hard.

This is what Bardo once showed to the Knights of the House of Coendera.I thought it was funny, so Jog practiced several times with Emma Dust and wore it.

And towards Jog, Bardo drove his horse into a rush.

Jog tried to fight with joy, but for some reason Baldo didn't pull out his sword.

- Hey, damn it.My right hand must have stopped moving again.

At any rate, Bardo is approaching Jog.

Jog also decided to prepare, shook up his great sword and shook it down to Bardo.

It wasn't a very good attack, but it was a powerful enough attack to kill one person.

But Bardo took Jog's great sword with his left hand.

--What happened?

The great sword could not shatter Bardo's left hand, and the next moment, Bardo's right fist punched through Jog's jaw and Jog lost consciousness.

Jog, who regained consciousness after Bardo left, vowed to stop thinking of Bardo as an old man.

The fourth confrontation took place at the end of the castle.

Looking at the great sword Baldo had prepared, Jog secretly admired it.

Jog himself had prepared a black sword that was sleeping in the royal palace of Genelia, but I didn't think Bardo would have prepared a big sword that was out of common sense as well.

However, in relative terms, I realized that this was natural.

The mightiest knights will decide the males and females.

Destroy the opponent from the front with huge swords that no one else can hold or swing.It's a straight match between just and just.That's how it really gets settled.

Jog hit Bardo with his whole body.

Surprisingly, the old Baldo showed a perfectly opposite penetration to the penetration of the jog.

It's not impossible for Jog to think that this old man is a monster.

And in the aftermath, he stood around like a skilled warrior, and Bardo beat Jog with a big sword and decided to fight.

It was a complete defeat.

It's not easy to say.Bardo's power is greater than Jog's.At least now.

Jog acknowledged Bardo's victory and declared himself under his command.

5.

In the battle against the beasts, Jog glanced.

I'm not a beast.To the knights on your side.

Kinkiru, shrunk hair, and Baldo's adopted dark roots were incredible strengths.

Is there still such a strong man in the world?I thought so.

That means Jog can still be strong.

Each of them had a different style of combat.That was interesting again.

Eventually Jog survived a desperate defense battle and returned to Genelia.At that time, Genelia had been invaded by the Sinkai army.

The Sinkai knights were strong.It was pretty tough.

The general who led it was an astonishing man.

Jog thought it might be impossible to win.

But the result was Jog's supremacy.

When did I get so strong?

Jog did what he rarely did.

I mean, I thought deeply about it.

As a result, I came to the conclusion that the days I spent at Rhodevan Castle changed me.

Kinkirlu, shrunken hair, dark roots, and the days spent with Bald Lauen were filled with tingling tensions.

Jog is a man of beast sensitivity.

However, I am sensitive to strong beast signs.

Kinkira, shrunk hairs, dark roots, and Bald Lauen are very strong beasts.

I have fangs that will eat and kill us right away if you attack me.

Jog's wildness was sharpened as he spent time with those beasts.

Beasts don't train.

Strong beasts are strong from the beginning, and they did not grow stronger after training.

However, if the quiet life continues, the strength of the beast may be smashed.

Conversely, if you spend time in a tingling tension, the feeling of battle will be polished.

Jog says, "The beast that inhales the breath of a strong beast gets stronger."

For Jog, Rhodevan Castle was such a place.

Besides, there was a practitioner named Magic Beast at Rhodevan Castle.In the midst of a desperate battle, Jog evolved into a more ferocious existence.

When I realized that, life in Gaineria was warm.

No matter how many fish knights and squid soldiers you lay down, such a thing won't be a lesson.

When I started feeling irritated, there was good news.

The Kingdom of Parzam is asking a friendly country to send reinforcements to intercept the Sinclair army with Alliance Admiral Bardo Lawen as its commander.

- Damn it. If you need someone's help, you'd better ask me for reinforcements first.

Jog got angry.

With that anger, he jumped out of Genelia and rushed to Bardo as reinforcements.

And when I started living with Baldo, I realized that there was the environment that I had hoped for.

In the presence of Bald Rowen, the mighty gather.

Many of the knights who visited the Mansion every day were strong enough to touch Jog's skin.

If I stay here, I can be strong.Yes, I felt Jog.

And Bardo Roen's enemies are also strong.

Eventually, there will be a duel with the Sinkai army headquarters led by General Lust.

Even one of them will defeat many powerful enemies, and eventually even General Lust will defeat Jog.

And Jog gets stronger.

Enough to kill Bardo Roen.

6.

On the way home from the long ride, looking after the horses, and then back to the guest building, I ran into a dark man.

When Jog stopped, the dark roots stopped too.

Jog stared at the faceless face of the dark root man.

This black root dark man's sword is awesome.

As if there was no fear, he lay himself in the claws of the coming beasts and kept sifting his special sword.

The cut on purpose.

A supple outfit.

If Jog is a swordsman of power, then Root Dark Man is a swordsman on purpose.

I don't know what happens if I kill this guy.

Imagine that and you'll feel a thrilling joy from the bottom of your belly.

In this way, a moment of confrontation with the strong makes the jog stronger.

The breathing of the mighty, the carrying of the feet, the watching.

By seeing and feeling it, Jog gains even more strength.

The Dark Root Man has not put his hand on the sword.

But now, the right hand of this man and the handle of the sword hanging on his left hip are connected by an invisible thread, and the moment the battle begins, the sword is already in this man's right hand, and he will cut and tear the sharp spot of Jog without even placing it between the sushi.

The sword is already in this man's hand.

No, no, no.

This man is the sword itself.

The opposite Jog hangs on his waist from a wide, thick knight's sword, a sword raised by a master craftsman.

It's a little too light and too short for Jog's hobby, but it's probably moving fast.

If you can dodge the Dark Root's first Dagger, you'll be able to take an unblockable blow.

Giggle, Jog's right leg slightly forward.

The temperature of the air around the root dark man drops slightly.

Jog felt his neck tingle.

And I smiled hard.

You're gonna cut my neck off.Fuck you. Take it if you can.

At that time, Colin called a little farther away.

"Jog ~.Marshal Baldo is staying at the castle today.I wonder when we'll have dinner ~ "

Jog took a breath and threw up.

The dark root man started walking again as if nothing had happened, intercepting Jog and leaving.

The approaching Colin asked Jog.

"That was Mr. Cars, right?What were you talking about?

"Oh, I was just asking you a few questions."

"Oh, what?

"Which one is stronger, Bardo Lawen's or Purcell Ward's?"

Seven.

Only Jog, Cars and Colin had dinner at Todd's that night.

Because there's no Baldo, there's no customers.

Jog and the Gainerian Minister for Foreign Affairs also came to the Kingdom of Parzam, but the minister stayed in the royal palace with only a few trips, so he wasn't here from the beginning.

Kamler started doing strange things again.

When I lit the green flaming stone in a large stone pot, I put a thick iron flat pot on top of it, and I didn't lay any oil on it. Instead, I put sugar in a saucepan and started stirring it around with a hella.

"Oh? The main dish today is sugar?I'm frying sugar out of here, but is that good?

"Of course, it's a good tasting sugar.But this is a preparation. "

Huh?

When it was time, Kamler took out a large plate from under the wagon.

When the lid is opened, there is a brightly colored meat on board.

Jog's eyes sparkled.

It's beef.

Thinly sliced.

The thinly sliced beef was spread over the roasted sugar.

There was a pleasant noise and the smell of meat burning.

There was a smile in Jog's mouth.

Jog poured the rustled red wine into his throat.

Kamler quickly flipped the meat and quickly cooked it, sprinkling black sauce there.

There was a loud noise and immediately the area was wrapped in a fragrant scent.

"Wow. Looks good.What kind of source is this?

"It is a cereal sauce made by fermenting several kinds of beans.Because it has no gumminess and persistence, it does not break the delicate taste of meat. "

That smells good.

"I'm sorry."

The cooking was completed in no time.

The roasted meat is triplicated and brought to Jog, Cars, and Colin.A small deep plate was placed next to the plate on which the meat was placed.It contains a sticky brown sawdust.

"Let me have a quick bite to eat."

Jog did what he was told.

In other words, the meat was picked up with a four-toothed fork and quickly rolled up and transported to the mouth.

Sweetness, goodness, smoothness, meat responsiveness, and unspeakable flavor filled the mouth.

The moment I put it in my mouth, it certainly had the texture of a piece of meat.

However, as I tried to taste a piece of meat in my mouth, it melted softly and slowly fell to the bottom of my stomach, giving my throat a pleasant feeling of satisfaction.

I wonder if I have chewed meat with my teeth now.

I don't even remember Jog.

It's an unprecedented, sensual dish.

I settled in my stomach completely without resistance.

Nevertheless, there was certainly a fleshy presence.

The remainder of the fragrance made the jog elegant.

Before the finish was finished, the next meat arrived.

Now I wrapped the meat around the fork, pulled it to pieces, and carried it to my mouth.

When it was bitten, there was a crunch on the flesh.

But it melts like a lie.

And with a strong and solid texture that can only be tasted with meat, it disappeared into the back of my throat.

"Uhm...."

It's really good.

I have never been moved by dinner since I came to this mansion.

Eventually, if the Sinkai army comes, it will be a fight.

When the battle is over, Jog leaves this mansion.

This means you will never be able to eat this dish again.

Hey, Kamler.

"Yes"

"This mansion would have been shut down if Bardo had gone."

"Yes, thank you."

"With the exception of retired employees, I've decided where to go next, but you've decided where to go.Really? "

Jog often remembers people who give food.Especially if you're a good food giver.

"Yes, I have some rumors about the nobility."

Come to me.

"What about it?"

"I'm getting a mansion in Gaineria.Come over there. And make something good for me every day. "

"You think General Jog will hire me?"

"Half out."

"What about it?"

"Hey, hey, Jog."

"I'll give you half of the salary I get from the royal palace.So come on. "

The offer surprised Kamler, too.

Jog Ward is the great general of the kingdom of Gaineria.

I don't know how much the salary is, but it should be enough for me to live and socialize in the form of a general and to support the lives and equipment of hundreds of servants and soldiers.Half of that salary should be a huge sum.

The servants lined up couldn't hide their surprise.

However, only Cars Roen eats meat and drinks wine flatly.

"I'll hear back at a later date.Think about it. "

"Yes, yes. I can't thank anyone like me for offering me that much.Thank you very much, Jog Ward. "

Eight.

"I was surprised all of a sudden, but it's not bad to think about it."

"It's not bad, it's great."

"It's already heaven to be able to eat that Kamler food forever."

Ah.

"Gaineria doesn't eat well.Probably a reputation. "

"Reputation?"

"General Jog has an amazing cook."

"Do you know people?"

"Listen to the rumors and the guests will come.Until now, Jog has had a bad relationship, but it seems like friends will expand from here on out.Everyone bring a souvenir or I'll thank you later. "

"I won't call you. I'm the only one who cooks Kamler."

I don't think so.

"Besides, didn't you hear that the nobles hate Kamler?I'm not going to tell Kamler how to cook old tight streets. "

"But it's only natural for Jog to do things that aren't sudden.Nobody complains about how to cook.Only the good taste of Kamler's cuisine makes it reputable.If we're going to consolidate our relationship in Gaineria, it's important to expand our relationship. "

"I don't want to do such a mess."

"There's nothing Jog can do.I'll match you over here.Moreover, Admiral Baldo will probably return to wandering after the war.I wonder if Kamler's cuisine will come to me sometimes. "

Jog glanced at Colin.

--Damn it, you come by sometimes, huh?Bring me the dark roots.

Jog thought it might not be bad either.

"Nevertheless, Jog is always sudden.Really, it's a wreck.But it's about time we had a good year.I need Genelia to calm down. "

Uuuuuuuuh

Jog is now the general of Genelia.

But I don't feel like sticking to that status.

If there is anything else I want to do, I want to leave.

Jog Ward is a man of the wind.No, he's like a storm.

There is no stopping.
