Swordsman Runes

Swordsman Runes
The Part 60



Thanks to the previous incident we were all in detention. No one gets out of the tent or meets anyone else


Until the investigation is complete. Although my suspicions were the lowest but still I was there.


Instead, the highest suspicion was obtained by the duke of Crambell because he was the closest to the prince


The state of the prince was critical due to poisoning but now it has begun to improve.


The bottle of wine that was the evidence was clear that the whole wine in the bottle was poisonous


Makes me believe that the purpose of putting poison is not only the prince but all the nobles who support him


Due to the state of war like this, the death of the prince could be disguised as the act of Rodigur who put poison.


This makes the perpetrators are among the 2 camps. The fortress that wants the prince dead or the stronghold that wants Rodigur to remain.


If the second one should have been the poison-bearer had poisoned everything long ago. There remains one camp. This directly inferred the perpetrator from the one who poisoned the prince. The crown prince.


Looks like the state of the crown prince is starting to be threatened because of the third prince. But poisoning the third prince was also a stupid thing


I, who am not very smart, can conclude this. Especially the king and his subordinates, right?


Therefore the crown prince is between 2 sides. The mastermind or do not know, but still involved


If the mastermind means someone else put poison. And the crown prince will accuse him while saying he doesn't know anything


But it could be the second. The culprit was indeed at the crown prince's side but the crown prince did not order it but rather the doer's own initiative.


Strangely anything about it will still harm the perpetrator. Why would he do this?


The investigation was conducted all day. Fortunately the prince was better than before.


And I can start my goal to Rodigur now "Master Viscount"(Soldier) I stare at the soldier who enters my tent


"What's wrong?" "Her Majesty the prince calls you"(Soldier) "Prince yes. All right, I'm there"


The soldier came out, after preparing I also went to the prince's tent which was the biggest tent


I went into the tent "Hamba facing the noble" The prince sat on the big bed staring at me


"I'm sorry you have to look at me like this"(Third Prince) "No need to think about the prince"


"I owe you one too. The poison is quite dangerous, if I drink more. Surely I am no longer here"(Third Prince)


"That's what I'm supposed to do" "Good then. Take it easy you have escaped suspicion, because you have just joined here and have not done any strange actions either because no one approached the storehouse"(Third Prince)


"Nobody approached the barn? What does it mean that the people from the capital did?"


"So, no one knows. Thanks to you here Rodigur can easily control"(Third Prince)


"Ah.. On that matter, I apologize first to the prince. Servants here are not to help this war"


"Are you kidding me? Keep going for what?"(Third prince) "Solve the covenant with the king's majesty. The servant brought his letter"


I gave a letter from the king containing permission for me to bring the people of Rodigur as my subjects


"So this is your goal"(Third Prince) "I'm sorry servant prince" "Have it then. Do you have a purpose? Where are you going?"(Third prince)


"Of course, but obviously the servant did not go to the capital" I myself still do not know my purpose.


"You seriously don't want to help? The benefits you get later are not small. Especially with your help our victory is assured"(Third Prince)


"Sorry your highness. The servant must reject the noble invitation. According to the servant himself Rodigur must remain standing"


"Oohs.. That's a new opinion. Can you explain why?"(Third prince)


"Because of the noble Stor. Only Rodigur could hold Stor back from taking out all of Mithril's reserves in Monrra. If we take control of Rodigur. Stor's gonna turn his attention to us"


"Do you think we will lose?"(Third prince) "Not mean to be condescending. But that's right, our weaponry can't hurt them. And they have tremendous resistance to the Force. Servants themselves can kill one after a hard fight, but one army. The servant can only escape"


There is one more horrible fact actually. The giants used Mithril's weapons.


Even the weapons they used had a quality exceeding that of the Dwarf-made Mithril in Monrra.


Dwarsen himself told me that. Fighting with them is like digging a grave


"I can't do anything about it. That was the king's wish. I'm just following orders. If I could be king, nothing like this would happen. Are you going to help me? Viscount"(Third prince)


It's like this still want to ask for support from me "Sorry Your Majesty. The servant wants to remain neutral only, if the servant is still a soldier. I will support your Majesty. But now the servant has the people, the wife, the territory. If the servant takes the wrong decision the whole territory of the servant will be affected"


"So yes. I see, you may go"(Third Prince) "Hamba resigns"


I went out and happened to meet Sirus


"Gather all the soldiers and we're off" "You're leaving now?"(Sirus) "Yes, if we stay here longer the situation will get worse"


Didn't wait long for all my soldiers to fire. I could feel the nobles and soldiers watching me.


I ignored them and left the fort. Even though this would make me suspect.


But I have no loopholes and no evidence. Because it's not me, even a fool knows I didn't do it


So I want to stay longer or not. There will be no difference at all.


The Rodigur area is an area with many fertile mountains.


There were dozens of small villages and dozens of large villages after the Termonn fortress. That's why I decided to make all my troops split up.


Because they all came from different villages and towns. While I went to the big city where Mia grew up.


Although Mia doesn't talk about where she grew up. I know from Mia's subordinate soldiers.


Mia used to be an orphanage boy who was cheated by Viscount Rodigur area. The orphanage was made to fill the soldiers no matter their gender.


The funny thing is that almost all children who are teenagers are sent to Monrra to fight.


And half more of them died because of my sword when they rebelled before.


All that was left now were dozens of people who previously could not use the Force. They were too afraid to die so they chose to follow me


We arrived. At the end there were dozens of soldiers with one man holding a bow staring at me.


The number of my soldiers is 100. The rest is scattered in all directions. Can't get through this without a war?
