Swordmaster’s Youngest Son Chapter 670

Chapter 670 Chapter

170. To meet another friend, Dante (3)

The friend I met after a long time had the same face. The hand that shook hands was firmer than before, but Jin felt as if he could feel Dante’s past three years from it.

“It’s been a while, dear. You really came back stronger.”

“Because he must have been busy, I thought he would look a bit haggard. Now you’ve become an iron man, Dante.”

“If you can’t even do this, you won’t be qualified as the owner of the Sword Emperor.”

“As soon as I came back, I was completely distracted, so I couldn’t come to see you first.”

“There will be no one who doesn’t know what great things you have done as soon as you have finished your Closing Training. Don’t worry, I was pretty busy until a few days ago anyway.”

The two looked at each other without speaking for a while.

Although they haven’t been able to spend time together for the past three years, they have endured with one mind in their respective positions. Even without saying it, I felt like I knew how hard and deep the past time was for each other.

“ah! I’m sorry for the late greeting, Mr. Quikantel, Mr. Latri. I am Dante Highlan, the lord of the Geomwang Castle.”

“Why are you being so awkward, Sir Dante? It’s not even the first time I’ve seen you.”

“I know. Are you telling me to eat?”

Dante scratched the back of his head embarrassedly at YuRia and Quikantel’s answer.

“I wanted to greet the princess formally. It seems a little overdone.”

bubbling.

The seafood soup was boiling. The meal began when YuRia put the seafood soup in an empty bowl and served it to Dante first.

Dante already knew the details of most of what had happened since Jean’s return. It was because Casimir sent someone to inform him of the news whenever an incident occurred.

“…I see. Lord Beradin… has he completely forgotten us? As a victim of such a dirty experiment. How could you do that to the next head of the family and your son!”

However, I heard about Beradin’s condition for the first time today. Jin patted Dante’s shoulder, who was trembling with anger.

I had known from before that Veradin was in a situation where there was no choice but to be destroyed, but when I heard about the situation through Jin’s mouth, it felt like poison filled my heart.

“Zipple. From those wrathful men… I will definitely save my friend someday.”

“Yes, I will. Dante.”

“Until I destroy the evil spirit, I will let my wrath subside. Like you, I will use them as long as I can, and when I’m done, I’ll take them down.”

Just as Jin learned the value of ‘right’ again from Ron and Dante.

Dante, too, was learning the necessity of ‘paedo’ from Jin.

If he had been Dante before, he would never have held hands even for a moment with those who turned his friend into a miserable experiment, even if he had to die, but not now.

A lot of life was on his shoulders. The world seen as the lord of the Geomwang Castle and the regent of the empire was showing a completely different look from when he was in Sogaju.

Sometimes I had to use my enemies, sometimes I had to back down, and sometimes I had to do things that didn’t follow my heart.

Otherwise, he could not save the countless families and people who only looked at himself, and the world.

‘You’re starting to resemble Sir Ron, Dante.’

The face was always that of a close friend, but Dante was clearly different.

He started walking on the path of an emperor, not Sogaju.

The emperor who is most strict with himself and will never fall.

Jean was proud of the fact that Dante was becoming that kind of person.

And that look was what Ron wanted most from Dante in his lifetime. The grandson, who was straight and full of determination to fight against evil anytime, was definitely lovely, but I was always worried.

Jin was talking to Ron on the inside. Now, I think you can enjoy watching it with peace of mind.

“By the way, Jin.”

“why?”

“I’ve been curious about it since before. Why did you bother to come disguised? I don’t think it’s just for the princess’s leisure.”

“There are people in the imperial family who want to kill you.”

“It would have been impossible if Zipple hadn’t given up such a person. Doesn’t Ziple have no reason to do that now?”

“The Garden of Swords, not Ziffle, gave the Assassin.”

Dante’s eyes narrowed.

“The Garden of Swords…?”

“Yes, the imperial family betrayed Ziple and attached to Rosa. It was confirmed through Valeria. Did you know anything?”

“To my shame, I didn’t know at all.”

“The same goes for the subject who was betrayed. Even Ziffle didn’t know that the imperial family was attached to the Garden of Swords.”

Even after Jin informed him of the betrayal, Ziple did not recklessly purge the imperial family.

The situation is also a situation, and it was because they had to first figure out how much information they got from them and informed Runkandel.

“Valeria said you look dangerous. We’re guessing that it was Joshua who provided the assassin to the imperial family.”

“Assuming the abilities of the highest-level knights and prophets enhanced by chaos, even from the point of view of the imperial family, assassinating me would not have been a very dreamy story. The reason why the Garden of Swords wants to get rid of me is because I’m not comfortable helping you.”

“So I came here in disguise after a long time. Bringing our princess here too.”

Of course, the reason Jin brought YuRia to this dangerous political situation was not just to give her a pleasant memory.

“…Do you intend to find the assassin through the power of the princess?”

“Exactly.”

Dante was still going to say that it was too dangerous to bring a young princess to such a place, but stopped after taking one look at Jin.

He wondered if Yuria could be in danger no matter what kind of person the enemy sent, since Jin was with him.

“I think I wanted to say something.”

“Coming to think of it, I don’t think it will be too much of a problem. As long as it wasn’t for assassins or the swords of the old Runcandel.”

“Even if it’s Sir Padler, Yuria won’t be hurt. I have you.”

“Then what can I do now?”

“There is too little information other than that the Garden of Swords gave an assassin to Ayran Bement. So, call everyone who can be summoned to the imperial castle. It would be a good idea to check if there are any of them.”

“Can we call everyone and ask if there is a traitor here?”

Jin nodded.

“It’s an investigation in a way that can only be done with the presence of the princess.”

“Me, Yulia Latri, and Quikantel-sama have to participate in the imperial meeting. As it is a place where the best ministers of the empire have gathered, we must have a justification for joining. What I’ve been thinking about is…”

“Jin I am no different than the only one in the Empire. Even the dead Amir Viment didn’t have more power than me. So there is no need for justification. All the current servants of the empire just have to come running immediately when I call.”

“Oh, I forgot for a second that you changed. I didn’t have to think of a justification or anything like that.”

“I am curious. What justification did you prepare for?”

“I thought they were the dragons you accidentally rescued from the contaminated area. So I came here to repay the favor. Because there are many cases where you subjugated alone without any knights.”

“Considering what you’ve been trying to think of, there’s a feeling that it’s a little… less probable. Dragons that do not belong to this world are extremely rare.”

“I’m glad you don’t need anything.”

“But if someone dares to ask me where you come from, I will say so for now.”

“If the traitor is in the capital and the fact is revealed immediately, then there will be no need to lie.”

The meal is over.

A wagon was prepared outside, and the party immediately headed for the imperial castle on that road.

“Tell all the ministers waiting in the capital to gather in the first meeting room of the imperial castle within two hours. All of the 10th-class servants, excluding the average knights and average wizards who are on duty. It is an urgent call. Also tell them that those who are even one second late will be severely punished.”

“Yes, Your Highness the Regent!”

In an instant, orders fell throughout the capital.

“Has the Regent ever convened us in this way?”

“I can’t see you taking a break even for a moment, so I told you to work for the people and the empire until you die, but what is the reason for leaving the work to a deputy?”

“What the hell are you talking about at night! I’m dying of anxiety Are you really going to bring down low Kuron and ascend the throne yourself?”

“However, lower Kuron begged us in a young voice to be considerate of us, and that’s about it… When the lord of the Sword Emperor ascends the throne, we will indeed die from overwork as a group…!”

“No matter what, if you show even the slightest hint of dislike by saying, ‘Let’s go and lie flat, it’s the end. you all know The other day, Baron Margle complained about having too much work, and what happened?”

In this way, the servants who feared Dante held on to the melting soy sauce, and the servants who respected Dante determinedly sought the Imperial Palace.

“This is an urgent call from His Highness the Regent. It is clear that a major event has occurred.”

“Everyone, don’t show any tiredness. No one in the Empire can suffer more than His Highness the Regent.”

Carriages and horses were constantly entering the imperial castle.

Before two hours had passed, more than a thousand servants had gathered in the meeting room.

“Did everything arrive?”

The scenery the servants saw was Dante sitting in the seat of honor and four faces standing behind him for the first time.

No one recognized that Jin and the others were in disguise.

“Yes, Your Highness the Regent!”

“That’s right!”

Despite the gathering of so many servants, they dared not even exchange a glance in front of Dante.

I saw a lot of people who rolled their eyes for no reason and saw a rough situation.

‘Really no one asks Dante for our identities. When my father was hospitalized in the Garden of Swords in the past, it was as strict as Runkandel. It’s just that the other side… seems to be expecting something.’

In the midst of a heavy atmosphere that took your breath away, there was a group of people who showed their expectations without being particularly careful.

They were ministers and knights from Hiran, but the reason why their eyes sparkled was because of Quikantel, who was standing behind Dante in disguise.

‘Couldn’t it be that the family lord finally found his lover!’

‘I’m trying to introduce Jung-in and his family, if not. No… maybe not. It has to be. I’m not the kind of person to summon my subjects so urgently because of my personal affairs…’

Unfortunately, they soon became sullen and straightened their eyes.

The knights of Hyran were well aware of how lonely and desperate Dante was going through, so they eagerly hoped for the appearance of a lover who would become his rest, even just a little bit.

Dante rose from his seat.

“Everyone is busy, so I will speak directly. I am gathering you now because there is a traitor within the Empire.”

“ah…!”

“How!”

“Do not open anyone’s mouth until I give permission. Hurry up and let’s all go back to contributing to the normalization of the empire. From now on, you must answer my question with only ‘yes or no’. Now, let me ask you the first question.”

Dante looked at his subjects with stern eyes like fire.

“Do any of you have plans to harm me, or know of those who have such plans?”

“doesn’t exist!”

The servants answered, and Dante waited for Yuria’s signal.

Yuria watched the servants for a few minutes and then gently stabbed Dante in the back with her finger seven times.

That meant that seven of them lied.
