The wise man returns

“Well, well...”

“Tell me the truth. Under the circumstances, you could be punished, too. ”

It is forbidden by royal law to tell lies to superiors.

Even if it were not so, there would be no owner to hire the master to lie to him.

“Fernando? What... what's going on? ”

Fernando closes his eyes in front of the duc who still doesn't know exactly what's going on.

I've been running all this time to stop this situation, but I can't help it if I'm already here.

“Th-The... the Laborer of Laden has been here ever since he met Count Valine... and I've met the Knights of the Duchess of Santos...”

“That's it.”

Balin, who stopped reporting, said while pretending to be tired.

“That's fine, so why don't you cook me a new dinner here? Instead of just meat, mix vegetables and vegetables properly. Just don't get too oily. ”

“Yes, yes! I'm going to stop you.”

When Fernando is about to make his move, you hear Valine calling the other knights behind his back.

Fernando leaves as soon as possible because he knew what would happen.

I could feel the duchess looking at me behind my back, but I couldn't help it.

To the knights approaching with orders, Valine said:

“I was going to have dinner here, and there's a pig right across from me. Put it away now.”

“Oh, he's... he's...”

The knight glancing at the duchess said in a hesitant tone.

It was because the only way Balin pointed was the peacock who woke up from the maid's chair and shuddered.

Just as he relieves his anxiety, Valine orders a cooler tone.

“Yes, the pig that the Dozens of Servants were supporting. I don't need an explanation. Get that pig out of my face right now. ”

It became clear that the pig Balin was referring to the duchess.

However, executing the order to clear it was a separate matter from receiving the order.

The years of loyalty to the duc, who have been loyal to her for decades, have kept the knights at bay.

Suddenly, the duchess opens her mouth as if this was an opportunity.

“You just called me a pig! After Valien... my Lord! This is blasphemy! It's against the laws of the realm! I'm going to hold a hearing with my cow, so you'd better be strong! ”

Balin's sudden reaction to the duchess leaves the knights speechless.

However, one duchess speaks confidently.

While it may seem crazy to others, the duchess was now quite full of confidence.

"It's okay, if that's the Marquis Valien himself, I'm not gonna touch him! ’

She was convinced she had her reasons.

Balin is originally said to have recently received the title of an emerging nobleman, as well as the love of the king.

Duchess Fiona nods, smiling.

It was obvious that the new noble, who was favored by the king, was being deterred from all the other nobles.

In this situation, Balin was the one who gave the reason for the violation and insult of the national law and made it difficult for him to stand up in court.

“Well, now... if you apologize for this, I have a special favor to ask of my ex-husband, so I can move on...?" ”“ Grab him and get on your knees. That pig, if you disobey orders, you will also be punished in the foothills. ”

“Yes!!! ”

Balin's answer was an unpretentious order, an order given to his underlings.

The knights realized that if they even broke this, Valine would do exactly what she said she would.

“You!”

“Haha!”

“Gaaaahhhh!! What are you doing! I can't let go of this!? ”

The galloping knights grovel on the floor, their owners who had been serving them for some time.

Watching him, Balin raises his mouth slightly.

“Courthouse? That's good. Let's go and talk about it. The late Duke's father was mistreated by a former Duchess believing in her authority! ”

“... profit! Let go! Let go! ”

The duchess twists with a scream, but the knights do not have mercy in their hands.

In front of him, Balin thought, smiling in relief.

In the beginning, Fiona did not know what was going on.

I thought the nobles would be hostile to me, given the simple king's favor, but that was proof that she was so dark in information.

Today, the status of Balin was like the Idol of all, receiving love calls from both kings and nobles.

The answer came as soon as the Infinity Shield he created strengthened the Imperial Army.

‘You're like a man who spends nothing but money in a mansion. Stupid as hell. ’

Balin glances at the duchess with cold eyes.

The duchess, who was in a frenzy, couldn't take it anymore and wept.

“Ugh, ugh, ugh, ugh... ugh! ”

It was a grim cry that sounded like a protagonist of an unfair story.

However, Valine looked at him and felt the fury boiling.

When she rushes knights to Laden, she smiles viciously and disadvantages them.

It was so hateful that it turned into a visual corner.

That's why Valine decided to tell him one thing.

“Duchess Fiona. ”

Fiona, the duchess, raises her head in her title.

He thought Valine would forgive him for a moment.

Valine's face overhead smiles.

It was a smile that looked brighter on the inside.

“The Duchess will hold a hearing with this now, so if I stand before the court, you think the nobles will bite my limbs off? ”

“...!? ”

The whisper that pierces your insides is bloodshed in Fiona's eyes.

Whether he did or not, Valine continued to speak.

so she can fully understand the harsh truth.

“In a nutshell, no. Nor His Majesty, nor the nobles. Even the whole transfusion thing is on my side. ”

“Y-you can't do that! Yes, Lee Irv!! ”

A struggling duchess falls on the knight's weight.

The floor that lay bare without a maid's chair was cold.

“Because... anyone who hates me gets left behind. in times of change.”

Balin, who leaned down next to the duchess, said he had the courage to change his time.

The proud declaration opened the duc's eyes wide, but Valine did not hesitate.

In fact, what was changing in Balin was an age that was moving towards its doom.

If changing the direction of the times is also leading, what Balin did was right to lead the times.

“Enough with the explanations... get rid of them. I want to have dinner. ”

“Yes!”

The knights in command grip the duchess' arms.

The duchess screams at the rough treatment she has never received.

The moment his mouth opened, Balin flicked his fingers.

“Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Chuckle! Chuckle!! ”

Surprisingly, what came out of the duchess' mouth was the cry of a pig, not the words of a man.

Even the knights were momentarily relieved in front of this stunning scene.

“Queek? Queek!! Cough, cough, cough! Yippee!!"

No matter how much the surprised duchess raised her voice, her voice remained.

As Balin said, only the voice of a pig is half pig.

In front of this stunning scene, the duchess twisted her body several times and raised her voice.

Balin, who was watching, secretly tasted with a gesture to block her ears.

‘Too bad, I would have shown you more if I'd broken through eight classes of lords. ’

Balin thinks of Castro, the enemy of the Demon Prince he encountered earlier.

At that time, he was able to transform the human form and body into a free material through polymorphism.

‘Polymorphic magic is eight classes of common magic. If only one of Manna's circles had broken through eight classes, it would have been ready to go. ’

I wanted to turn my voice into a real pig, not just a pig.

But Valine once more glanced at the duchess, and soon fixed her mind.

It was because the voice alone seemed to be close enough to the pig.

Previously, if it had been a pig speaking human language, it would have been okay to just be a pig with brown hair.

‘I've used dozens of Wind Orbs to make them, but this much...’

Making an orb out of Mana of the Wind is called the Wind of War.

Two classes of simple wind magic, but it took a lot of balls to build and maintain dozens of them.

The result, of course, was adequate enough to endure that effort.

“Move! Move! You bastards! How dare you do this to your mother! ”

As I watched Duke Hanchang's fever with my own eyes, I heard a young man's voice behind my back.

Balin turns his head and faces a young man coming this way.

"Strong radius with brown hair... but you can see Duke Santos on his face. Is he the Duke's son?" ’

It seems Duke Santos also had a son when he received his report this morning.

Perhaps his son is this young man who is close at hand.

“Stay away from her! You bastards!! ”

There was a fire in the young man's eyes if he had heard about the ice on the way.

Balin glances at him and laughs.

It seems the young man inherited only a similar face from Duke Santos.

Bloop.

As I put the blink on the back of the young man, his sword splits the meaningless air.

Balin, who appears behind his back, swings his blade instead of his sword.

The Mana on the sword seems to be of Express Intermediate quality, but you can't escape Balin's move with the Blink.

Puck!

The young man who is slapped on the back of the neck with a short strike, followed by another cold word from Balin.

“I think he's a knight, too, right? ”

“Yes. I'm a mid-level knight...”

“You don't need it all. Unlock all the knights and nobles and throw them out for a body and clothes. Both mother and child. ”

“Yes, we will. ”

There were no more hesitant knights. They dragged the fainted young man and the duchess out as a burden.

Balin, who was left alone, sat on the remaining chair at the table and took a breath.

Of course, it was a real banquet chair made of silk and wood, not a human chair made of forced maids.

The maids who came with the food started to appear at the low end.

Balin summons Fernando, their overseer.

“Yes! Speak! ”

“What about your father? Still your body? ”

“Yes. I've called in my kidneys to heal them, so if you just let me have a good day, you'll be healthy again tomorrow." ”

Then it's a relief. If Laden had been hurt so much by them, he would have torn them apart.

When the knights are back from work, Valine slowly hears the report.

Of all the jewels and dresses in the annex, the duchess only took one piece of clothing and underwear she was wearing.

“You didn't get her jewelry or food or sleeping bags, did you? ”

“Rest assured, I never did. ”

The knight who posted the report hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice.

“If you give it to them, they won't even use it. I guarantee it.”

Given the tone, it looks like the duchess had quite a pile on her hat.

Just like the memory of being loyal to Duke Santos and the status of a former duchess.

At the end of the story, Balin unravels the magic that turned the duchess' voice into a pig.

I don't know what you two are going to talk about, but I'm sure we won't be able to make it through winter if we don't give up his rage.

That's it. If there's room for openness, you'll live on your own, otherwise you'll freeze to death.

Balin was able to enjoy dinner with a satisfied expression.

Question Answer: Balin's current swordsmanship achievement is to a lesser extent known as Expert. The Oracle Blade belongs to the Swordmaster… it's a different field!

P.S. It's 100 in a few days, so I'm sure I'll have to put on an event, but... what's the point of walking at this rate? Hehe.
