Chapter 272 – 266 Bijalux, Mining Town
After easily solving Lim Se-hee’s problem, Hwan-in entered Yeong-ju’s office with a light heart.
= Are you here? I was waiting for you.=
The lord of Selga, whom I had seen in a few days, was haggard and emaciated, as if he had lost 10 kilos of weight.
A look that can be guessed that the heartache was enormous.
He seemed to have a lot of energy, and it was difficult to sit still, but he got up and bowed deeply to express his gratitude.
=As the lord of Visalux, I would like to express my thanks in the name of the Beast God and our ancestors to the spirit priest Hwanin who helped eradicate the catastrophic mixture, purify the castle, and solve the village’s misfortune.=
“It was fortunate in the misfortune that it happened while I was there. And…… Rest in peace.”
Yeongju slightly lowered his head, unable to hold back his apologetic face toward Hwanin.
= Thank you… Is. Even though her third wife had behaved so contemptuously… What should I say to the spirit master who expresses my condolences? She too… I will live in repentance to the spirit master in God’s Garden.=
“…….”
On the way back, he forced the lord, who was sweating enough to bend down once, to sit on a chair, thinking that he should at least tell Esart what had become of Staeta’s soul.
It doesn’t matter if you die and collapse later in the wilderness, but it’s difficult to collapse in front of yourself.
“The only question is, has Aldhelm’s assassination suspect been identified? He was enough to assassinate a baron, so I think he’ll be easy to narrow down the suspects.”
=… The assassin broke in through the open window and used the knife in the room as a weapon…… Other than that, nothing has been revealed. I’m guessing that Nassarat’s Assassination Squad is involved, but…… Cool. Nothing is certain.=
It was strange not to ask such a question as a key participant in the mixed situation and as a soul worker, so I asked as a formality, but pretty good information came in.
If you do this, you won’t be suspicious of yourself.
“Is that so.”
“Yes,” Said the lord with a hard laugh, opened the desk drawer, took out a silk pouch the size of his fist and a small box the size of two palms, and handed it to Esart, who was standing next to him.
And Esart offered them to the Hwanin with his two hands respectfully.
=To the spirit master who made it possible to prevent the sin that could have destroyed Visalux with minimal casualties…… This is the gratitude of the lord of Bijalux.=
“I will take it regardless.”
Contrary to the expectation that the pocket would be gold coins, there were as many as 10 4th grade phase stones of various colors.
This alone is worth more than 75 gold coins, but inside the reddish-gray wooden box that feels like silk, a square buckle belt with a modern design that wouldn’t be strange to wear on Earth was sitting quietly.
The color is also black with a crunchy feeling as if finely coated with charcoal, and it is a valuable item to look at.
“It’s a belt.”
= Oh, what? Wait a minute, could it be Grimoam’s belt?=
Looking at Yurpa, who noticed the identity of the belt, and looking back at the lord, he smiled a little and wrinkled his eyes.
= You have a great eye for the Yurpa Spirit Knight. You’re right. One of the five powers, Gangwan’s Belt, that originated from being possessed by the hero of the highest rank, Grimoam, hundreds of years ago.=
Hwanin, noticing that it was a very rare item from the reaction of Yu Lepa and the lord, lowered his head slightly and expressed his gratitude.
“Looks like a relic that has been kept for a long time.
= Even if it is a relic, it is no different from a relic that no one uses. I realized that the true owner of the belt, which had not been found for hundreds of years, appeared from the fighting spirit master Hwanin. If you are a spirit master, you can use it better than anyone else…… Cool, cool, cool!=
=Father.=
When Esart poured wine into his glass and handed it to him, the lord drank it all at once and continued the conversation with a much calmer expression.
=… Grimoam-nim was awakened as a sorcerer, but he was the one who excelled in martial arts than anyone else. Hwanin Spirit Master has the brilliant talent of physically fighting and winning against mixed bodies…… He thinks that the relic of Grimoam is the right one more than anyone else.
Yurpa and Anne nodded their heads as if they were intensely sympathetic.
Yu Lepa seems to be familiar with this pitch-black belt, so we should go back and listen to her in detail.
“A valuable gift, I will put it to good use. Thank you.”
= What Bizalux received from the Hwanin Spirit Master is incomparable to such material value…… That’s all I can give you, so I’m sorry….=
He is a Hwanin who thinks that value is relative, but this time he just laughed quietly without saying anything.
= Yes… Did.=
After the ceremonial conversation with the lord, Hwanin came out and informed Esart that Staeta’s soul had disappeared.
=… The third mother was quiet and virtuous when not related to Aldhelm…… He was more suited to a noble family than anyone else. He was the one who gave his own love to our brothers and sisters. =
She didn’t have a side to Ald Helm, but that was understandable enough because she loved her son who gave birth to her son so much, and the Esart siblings understood that much, so no big trouble occurred. Was
= But…… It seems that it was only within the fence of her family. =
Hwanin looked at Esart, who was depressed, then turned his gaze to the magnificent snow-capped Bijaruks Mountains and said,
“Extinction may be the only way to get out of the bondage of anguish.”
=…….=
“Liberation from the joys and sorrows of public life can be a blessing from a different point of view. For Mrs. Staretta, whose love for her son passed by…… I think that true peace has come.”
There would be no Aldhelm in God’s Garden.
After thinking for a while, Esart replied with a smile as if something had lifted a little from his shoulders.
=It feels comforting to hear Hwanin Spirit Master say that.=
“I am glad you were comforted. Then we’re done…….”
= Ah! Hwanin Spirit Master, please wait a moment. I have prepared one more gift, so I would appreciate it if you could accept that as well.=
“Since we’ve already received quite a few examples, I have no shame in saying more than this.”
= Ahaha. Then, I will make it a gift for the spirit knights. This is =
To your girlfriends? When Hwan-in looked back at them, they blinked their eyes with faces that had no clue.
Esart, pretending to be cheerful, wanted to give him something to lighten the mood, so he followed him to the workshop directly under the Bijalux family in the castle.
There are quite a lot of tools that specialize in custom orders and made-to-order. The walls are decorated with all sorts of tools, from prototype-like weapons and armor, and a train-like train can be seen on one side of the spacious workshop.
Most of all, what caught Hwanin’s attention was a single piece of iron with only the basic skeleton.
‘A steam engine?’
It is a very basic method, but the framework of the steam engine is clear. Is that also the progress of Lim Se-hee’s idea?
= I consider it. Princess Smithen, I’m here to pick up what you asked for.=
= Oh! So, is that the spirit master?!=
A grizzly Inung man wearing blacksmith work clothes approaches with a broad smile and bows down to Hwanin.
=Thank you, Spirit Master! With the Spirit Master’s blessing, her wife was able to save her life! Thank you very much.=
“If you are a wife…… ?”
=Yes! My wife was among the knights purified by the Spirit Master!=
“I see. I’m glad her wife is okay.”
Haha! Anyway!! With gratitude to the spirit master, I did my best to complete it, so the spirit master is sure to like it! Come this way!=
Along with a booming voice, what Smithon Workshop showed was a carriage with a design that would be difficult to find anywhere else in the world.
=As you can see, the body is made of Northern Nordic lacquer, and the frame is also made of Strill alloy, which is more wear-resistant than steel! Incorporating a new technology that is popular in the capital city to catch the shaking and vibration of the wagon, almost no shock is transmitted even when running on rough roads, and with exquisite weight distribution, it can be used as a 2-horse wagon for Que and a 4-head wagon for horses. Balanced! At the back of the wagon, there is space to store luggage and…… !=
= Whoa, whoa. =
=Oops~.=
Anne and Yurpa are busy examining the elegant black, matte carriage with faces oblivious to the lengthy explanations of the workshop master at Smithden.
Hwanin also looked at the carriage, feeling a little bewildered.
‘It looks like a celebrity van.’
Although the body is higher than the StarCraft van you can see on the road, it has a structure that enhances the stability of driving on the road, so it is more suitable to be called a camping trailer than a wagon.
=Smiden, the carriage design is very unique~?=
= Huh? Alas, it came to this because I accepted the advice while pursuing the comfort of the passengers as much as possible, but it doesn’t look bad, right?=
= Sure~. Rather, it is better because it feels different than a normal carriage~?=
As the saying goes, thanks to the adopted exterior, the interior is very spacious and high. Inside, 12 people can lie down, and the ceiling is about 2m high.
The most curious thing was that the internal structure of the wagon was decorated in a sitting style.
=As you can see if you look closely, the magic is generous for the durability and practicality of the wagon…… A variety of features…… Even the body weight…….=
As I looked inside and watched my girlfriends listening to Smithen’s rescue explanation, Esart approached me with a smile.
= The youngest is managing the studio, and she brought a piece of news a few days ago. It was a story that the spirit knights were looking for a carriage.=
“Yes. On the way to Bijalux, we camped out in the snow and came up with a story that we needed to find a wagon. I was looking into it because I thought it would be nice to get it from Visalux, where there are many artisans.”
= Actually…… This wagon was made for Aldhelm’s use. Giving it to Hwanin Spirit Master is a little…….”
“Ah. It’s not unpleasant at all, so you can relax. On the contrary, I like it very much.”
Hwanin laughed.
Had Ald Helm been alive to see this, his blood would have gushed backwards and he would have died of high blood pressure. And I understood why the wagon was shaped like that.
It must be because Lim Se-hee was involved in that too.
= Doryeong Doryeong! This wagon is really awesome!=
Seeing Anne smiling broadly and waving her hand, Hwanin also smiled and waved her hand.
When I first got to know Ald Helm in Carton Village, I was so displeased that his flesh rose to the top of his head. He thought he was caught up in a psychotic pleasure killing spree.
But as it turned out, it was a big incident involving a baron and two villages, and in the end, they even fought against a disastrous mix.
As a result, he obtained a wagon worth tens of gold coins, an artifact with an unknown price, and 10 Level 4 Phase Stones worth tens of gold coins. This level of compensation is more than enough to repay the hardships of the past.
Hwanin smiled a little, really a little, feeling grateful to Aldhelm.
If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t have even seen the artifact.
Of course, it was a thought he could make because he had heard that the Bijalux family would pay damages to Malvin, the survivor of Owling’s high family.
