The Old Knight of a Frontier District

Episode 2: Sword Ghost (Part I)

1

The fishing trout rocked heavily.

Looks like the fish ate up the bait.

After a while of struggle, I caught quite a big man and heard a familiar voice in Baldo's ear in a good mood.

"Long time no see, Master Bardo"

Looking back, there was the figure of the knight Cedermont Expengler, who dismounted and poked a knee into the grass of the river plain.

The two of them doing the same behind Cedarmont, they're familiar faces.

But behind it, it was an unexpected man looking down at Baldo with a grumpy look on his horse.

Yotish Payne.

A knight near the side of Dolba lord Cardos Coendera.

It may be as expected that Cedar will come, but I am surprised that the Coendella family will also emit a messenger.

Well, I didn't expect to turn to anyone in this capacity.

"Sir Payne.

Lower your horses. "

It is disrespectful to talk to a knight down from a horse while riding a horse, even though it is not a time of war, and this statement by Seidelmont merely states something very obvious.

But Yotish looked very uncomfortable.

"Sir Expengler.

The man is no longer a knight.

You threw away the bowl of service.

I don't need a knight's thank you for not being a knight. "

"Sir Payne.

Master Baldo Lowen has not lost his temptation to serve.

The oath of the knight of Bardo was made of the people, and the oath is not forsaken. "

"Hmm.

You did.

The Knight of the People.

With that said, Yotish went down the horse.

Ridiculous, what you think is indicated by attitude.

But Yotish, too, just as in Cedarmont, rather than in the Expungler family, doesn't answer very strongly.

The name of the Expengler in this land is not light.

Bardo told the three knights with one knee poked to stand up.

But Cedarmont said, with his knees poked, staring straight into the eyes of the man, my master.

"Master Bardo.

Please come back.

Don't let Galliera break your heart. "

I guess so.

And Bardo thought.

The present Pacra lord Galiera Tercia is a gentle figure of the heart.

I admire Bardo, who served four generations of Pacra lords, even as my brother did.

Since the death of his predecessor, Vora, two years ago, it has been Bardo who Galliera relies most on.

"Lord Bard Lowen.

My lord said he didn't take enough care of it.

Your territory will be reserved.

The Coendellas and the Tercians need your help. "

Listen to Yotish,

I'll tell you what.

And Bardo thought.

The territory given to Baldo, I don't know where it is, but it does not extend to the control of the Coendella family or the Tercia family, the patronage covenant of the other great lords, or, if you do poorly, it becomes a direct jurisdiction.

Declare the possession of such a city at will, and it will be a battle.

Baldo's name was too big.

An undefeated knight who has never been dropped a fort he defended (in a Tori) and has never lost under any unfavourable circumstances.

It is said that the Tercian family, which does not have such a large number of ministers, prevented the Warcraft Beast, was not invaded by other houses, and did not allow the thief (Hitsuku) to travel (Bakotsuko), for some reason, because of the work of Baldo, it is said to the public.

That martial name is out of the way now.

The present Coendera Principal Cardos is a man of deep greed.

Now that you have the name of the Great Lords, which was a memorial, you must be thinking about attacking other realms and gaining the right to collect taxes for even one city.

But after years of fighting, the territory is exhausted.

In the last few months, I was amazed at the bottom line that kept so many troops in service, but I have no doubt that the safe has bottomed out.

I don't want to keep my peace now.

But if we get a pawn named Bardo, we're not talking about it.

In the name of the resolution of the Lords' Conference, prepare a harsh battlefield for the Bardo and Tercia families, crush it with use, and take only fruit.

Such a strategy will be formed.

As long as he continues to be healthy, Bardo may also be able to fight as hard as he can and take fruit for the Tercians.

But these days, old age has also progressed.

Perhaps the day you leave the world, it's not that far away.

There is no more infidelity, such as leaving the Tercia family to die on a desperate battlefield.

Without Bardo, please.

If one big pawn falls, such a strategy will not be made.

If we crush the House of Tercia without Baldo, we will allow the invasion of the Warcraft.

In that case, both the Coendella family and the other lords will be cut to shreds in a fierce battle with warcraft and beasts.

The status of the Great Lords will no longer be preserved.

So Bardo decided to leave the Tercia family.

If Bardo leaves, the Tercia family gets time.

Fortunately, young ministers are growing up.

Bearing the present, nourishing local power and consolidating preparedness for the future.

It takes more time than anything else.

That must also be well known to Seidelmont, Bardo's godson.

However, if you fail to retain your departing Baldo, the Tercia family will be scratched.

Rumors (rumors) often reverse backward and forward relationships and end-of-life relationships.

I banished my old meritorious minister to slacken his mouth.

There could be such rumors.

So it was really necessary for Tercian ministers to find and comfort Bardo.

He sent three knights, including one as big as Seidelmont, so much so that it was too generous for him to treat an old knight from the township.

"Bardo Lowen.

Answer.

No, I'm not saying no. "

What I don't understand is this man.

I don't understand the aim of Cardos Coendella pointing this man at me.

If you turn to this man, our Lord's nephew (hey), you are perfect to make the pose that you have earnestly held him back.

But for Coendella, posing shouldn't mean anything.

Best to pull it off and pawn it.

If it cannot be retained, it is better to hold Tercia to account.

If this man comes, Coendella will also bear the blame for not being held back.

Besides, it's so disrespectful that I just think I'm deliberately trying to piss you off.

"Sir Payne.

I'll be damned.

My lord agreed that the House of Coendella would name the Great Lords, but not that the House of Tercia had subordinated to the House of Coendella.

Lord Lowen will take orders from your house, for no reason. "

Why, then Yotish Payne shut up.

What has this man really come to do?

Then for a while, Seidelmont ran out of words to comfort Bardo.

Bardo only replied that he wanted to die quietly because he couldn't fight anymore.

Even if I'm wrong, I can't throw up a word that looks like I'm leaving with all my love for the Tercians.

The reason for retirement must lie only in Bardo's own weakness of strength and temper.

It is important that Seidelmont and his two knights hear the word firmly and communicate it to many.

After a while of response, Seidelmont gave up persuasion and took out a bag of gold coins.

"If you don't come back, at least take a cheap journey. It's the will of Galliera."

and offer it to Baldo.

Hmm.

I don't know what would happen if I refused.

Some might still consider that there was dissatisfaction with the Lord.

and instantly determined, Bardo reached out to receive it.

It is then.

Yotish Payne's eyes revealed a different light.

The other end of that line of sight is neither Bardo nor Cedarmont.

It is a bag of gold coins.

It is precious food for the old man travelling alone, but not enough money for the nobility to change the colour of his eyes.

When the knights of the Tercia family finished their farewell greetings with Bardo and went back on the horse and turned back, Yotish followed this as well, but when Bardo put the bag of gold coins in his luggage, he felt like he was still wandering from far away.
