Chapter 63.1 - Purification (2)
Ting!
The powder rose and disappeared as if Cassion were bouncing his fist.
Ruel hurriedly covered his mouth.
His complexion turned pale.
Unlike the other two powers, this power did not emit any warning sound.
Cassion gave him a handkerchief and made a calm voice.
“It’s easy to think of it as a disposable shield. It’ll endure at least once.”
Ruel wiped the bloodstream and tightened his fingers.
‘Ganien could reflect everything as soon as he got it.’
The power this time seemed to be influenced by the state of his body.
‘Damn it
’
“I’ll call Aris after you take a rest.”
Ruel nodded instead of answering.
As soon as he lay on the bed with Cassion’s support, Leo asked, putting his face in Ruel’s.
—Is there anything this body can do to help?
“Not today, maybe next time.”
His ability to delicately control his power was superior to Aris.
—Okay. If you ever need the help of this body, tell me.
Leo smiled at Ruel’s face.
“Ruel.”
The door burst open and Ganien walked in.
“You don’t even know how to knock?”
Ruel showed his displeasure.
He thought he’d have to tell him someday, but only this time he got it out.
“You have Cassion.”
It was very brazen. Ruel held back his anger and asked.
“So what’s your business?”
“The Blue Knights will be waiting in the next town. As the representative of the delegation, they must treat you with utmost respect.”
“You brought them?”
“No, I honestly thought, regardless, the more escorts, the better. In any case, His Majesty gave the order, not me. You are a precious guest, and this time, you and I have swapped roles.”
He and Ganien played an important role in determining the alliance between Leponia and Cyronian.
Ganien has already met the King of Leponia and proposed an alliance, and Ruel will await the response to the decision of the King of Leponia. The result of the alliance would be seen in the future.
In the novel, no alliance was ever established between the two countries.
“The Red Ash disappeared on the way, and some of the wizards were mixed with the Red Ash. That’s why I called the Blue Knights.”
He needed people he could trust in the palace.
Ganien frowned slightly.
Knock. Knock.
“It’s Ginger, my lord.”
Ruel raised his upper body.
“Come in.”
Ginger opened the door and tried to lower his head, but was surprised to see Ganien.
No matter how close Ruel and Ganien are, aren’t they from different countries?
“It’s okay.”
Ruel reassured Ginger.
“Did you find it?”
“Yes, I found it. And I secured the note on the bird’s leg.”
Ginger approached Ruel and politely held out a note.
[Persons to be eliminated first: Ganien Croft of the Blue Knights, Torto the Commander of the Third Royal Knights, and Aris escorting Ruel Setiria.]
[Thanks to the heavy snow, no one has noticed. Begin.]
“Who’s the enemy?”
Ruel wrinkled the note and smiled.
The Nintra that the previous Red Ash agent talked about was coming.
“What I found out
 There were four of them: Khan, Taylor, Sort, and Kurt.”
Ginger took a short breath and managed to open his mouth.
The traitors really existed.
When Ginger found out, he clenched his teeth with a sense of betrayal.
If he hadn’t accepted Ruel’s offer, he would have been stabbed in the back by their knives as they wore hideous masks as his fellow comrades.
“Sir Ginger, relax. Sir Torto is not a traitor. Will you let Sir Torto know? The enemy has come.”
Ginger managed to moisten his dry lips.
It was not the commander. It was more reassuring than any other words.
“I’ll deliver it right away.”
As soon as the door closed, Ruel turned towards Cassion.
“Shouldn’t we reduce the number of heads?”
He knows the enemy is coming, so he should take the initiative to strike the back of their heads before they hit him.
“Alright, I’ll get Aris.”
Cassion glanced at Ganien.
He patted the handle of his sword, as if to reassure.
Only then did Cassion disappear.
“Hina.”
“Yes.”
Hina walked in from the dark.
“Tell the village chief to evacuate the people. Oh, and if you use Ganien’s name, you’ll have a better chance.”
“I see.”
Hina nodded and disappeared.
“Leo.”
Leo wagged his tail as soon as his name was called.
—Is this body needed?
“I want you to melt the snow.”
There was no one here who could handle nature better than Leo the Spirit.
—All right, leave it to this body.
When Ruel opened the window, Leo plunged face first into the snow. Once he saw Leo buried himself in the snow, he closed the window. He was swimming through the snow like a fish in water.
“What are you doing? You didn’t give me a task?”
Ruel urged Ganien to stay still.
Leo will clear the road, so there was no problem for the Blue Knights to come this way.
Ganien grinned.
“Call me soon.”
After sitting at the table and chatting, Ruel inhaled Breath.
The shadows will go for the leader, followed by the Royal Knights, and the Blue Knights, so we can prepare for whatever plan they have.
He was excited to see how quickly the bastard would put his head under his feet.
Knock. Knock.
“It’s Aris.”
“Come in.”
“Ganien-hyung is also here, too.”
When did the title change from nim to hyung?
Ganien welcomed Aris while communicating.
Still, Ganien’s eyes were filled with greed for his talent.
“Aris, did you hear from Cassion?”
“Yes, I have heard.”
“Whether it’s to destroy the village or whatever they plan, the enemy’s purpose is, as always, me. The town will be protected by the knights.”
“I will protect you, Ruel-nim.”
“Yes, protect Ganien and me. Cough, cough.”
Ruel smiled leisurely and clasped his hands.
***
Nintra was nervous.
Mary was captured and killed by one of the Royal Knights.
Ruel, who should have been swept away by the waves, arrived safely in the village in the southernmost part of Cyronian.
‘Damn! Damn it!’
He chewed and chewed his frightenly short nails.
Mary was weaker than himself, but she was a very capable assassin.
Then she died, at the hands of only one knight.
‘The information is different! Damn it!’
Nintra was heading towards the southernmost village.
The information should have come by now.
Why he wasn’t swept away by the waves and what exactly happened?
And is it okay to continue carrying out our plan?
‘Damn it!’
Something is messed up.
It felt as if his steps were getting slower and slower forwards.
‘I should have killed Ruel Setiria for Him.’
Can he execute the plan?
Nintra thought and pondered over and over again.
Nintra took out the black water from his pocket and put it back in repeatedly, until he finally clasped it firmly in his hand.
Because of the raid, it was only natural that the security level inside the Knights would rise.
Isn’t that what they had in mind when they attacked him?
‘It’s alright, this is for sure.’
He stared at the black water in his hand.
Even without their information, this item from those above was certain.
“What an ominous thing.”
“
”
Nintra froze.
He didn’t even notice when he approached.
The subordinates behind him also tensed like Nintra.
“Is your name, Nintra?”
The assassin laughed.
Before he knew it, the assassin had the bottle of black water in his hand.
Nintra finally drew his sword.
But he couldn’t swing it.
He only thought that if he wielded it, he would die.
He had never heard of such a strong man.
“I think this is the core of some kind of operation you guys are going to launch.”
Cassion shook the bottle lightly.
Gulp.
Nintra also did not realize that he was slowly kneeling down, weighed down by the pressure Cassion sent out.
The necks of the men behind him soared into the sky.
Dek dududu.
One of the necks rolled and stopped at Nintra’s feet.
It was then that Nintra began to tremble.
He was not an opponent he could dare deal with.
His instincts cried and screamed.
“Is that all of the plan?”
Nintra nodded his head several times.
“Is that all of your subordinates?”
He nodded his head frantically.
“How lame.”
Crack!
Nintra collapsed helplessly with the sound of a broken nose following him.
Cassion shot out his hand and grabbed him by the neck.
