Lena¡¯s first feeling when she saw it was an embarrassment. ¡®Suddenly like this?¡¯ Indeed, her father had the best determination in the world. Lena looked at the flying arrow, admiring her father¡¯s consistent attitude.2 ¡®It¡¯s hard.¡¯ Lena¡¯s short black dagger was not suitable for hitting. There was no immediate cover around her to escape. So Lena shouted out loud. ¡°Come here!¡± As Lena shouted, the nearby dead seized and attacked. Lena, who had deliberately attracted the dead, flew herself under them. Then, the arrows pierced the dead instead of Lena. Lena thought of the dead as a shield. ¡®Do you want to see the end here?¡¯ Lena confirmed her father¡¯s intention and bit her lips. Then she forced her lips up and laughed. ¡®If you do, I¡¯ll hang out with you.¡¯ ???????????? Marquis Rubel frowned as Lena was hiding among the dead. ¡®To make the dead as a shield.¡¯ It¡¯s a surprisingly extraordinary act. It was also possible because she knew clearly about those who swallowed the first cry. ¡®The Southern Duke¡¯s agent and a vanguard.¡¯ A close connection with the Duke of the South and the skill to use those who swallowed the first cry. Through these two things, the Marquis came to a conclusion. With a close guess, Lena was a veteran of the Silent War. ¡®I was wondering where and what you¡¯ve been doing¡­¡¯ The Marquis¡¯ daughter¡¯s history, which he finally learned, was pitiful and bitter. He couldn¡¯t believe she was trying to eat her father just because she rolled a little bit on the battlefield.12 ¡®I must see the end.¡¯ The Marquis didn¡¯t let go of the tension and found Lena. However, it was not easy to find the daughter among the dead and the pouring arrows. Furthermore, the moment he thought he had cleared the dead, the castle spewed out the dead once more. ¡°My Lord, more deads are coming!¡± The Lieutenant cried out to the Marquis, who was busy searching for Lena. More and more dead were climbing the valley. It was a momentum that couldn¡¯t be stopped by arrows alone. So the Marquis ordered the knights to advance. As Ruvid¡¯s attack scratched the ground, the knights struck through and entangled the dead. A fierce battle began, but the Marquis still only sought Lena. ¡®Where is she?¡¯ The moment when the Southern agent was isolated alone in the tomb wouldn¡¯t come again. So now was the only chance for the Marquis. ¡®Where, damn it¡­¡¯ A blue light shone in the sight of the Marquis, who was looking around. Blue was the symbol of the South. It was Lena in the southern uniform. Lena was in a hurry to escape from the valley filled with the dead. It looked like she was injured by holding one arm and staggering. The Marquis looked at the poor back for a moment and then muttered without realizing it. ¡°Take the lead for a while.¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± The Marquis who found Lena handed over the command to the Lieutenant. The Lieutenant asked back in disarray, but the Marquis didn¡¯t retract his remarks. ¡°Follow my order.¡± Instead, he turned away with a handful of knights. It was impossible for a commander to leave his seat. The Marquis was a person who thought that way, so if necessary, he was going to leave the work to the knights. But when he saw Lena¡¯s staggering back, he changed his mind. Instead of sending someone, he thought he should end it himself. It had already been twice that he had misled his work by entrusting it to others. The first was Klavis, then the butler. Because of their fragility, Lena was still alive and suffered such pain and humiliation. He was heartbroken at the sight of his daughter struggling. So, putting everything aside, he chased after his daughter to see the end with his own hands.2 ???????????? When the battle in the valley became fierce, Lena moved to the castle, avoiding the fight. At that time, Lena¡¯s uniform was tattered and torn. Anyone could tell from the mere sight of the uniform that it was in bad shape. In the meantime, Lena, who met the Marquis, looked at her father with a puzzled expression. ¡°You are injured.¡± ¡°¡­It¡¯s not a big injury.¡± When asked by the Marquis, Lena replied. It was a voice full of vigilance. Lena was on the wall of the King¡¯s castle, which swallowed the first cry. She climbed here to get out of the battlefield, and the Marquis chased her and ran up the ridge with the knights of the North. Then, she turned and silently looked at her opponent. ¡°You¡¯re shabby compared to your big talk.¡± The first person to open his mouth was the Marquis. As it was said, Lena¡¯s condition was shabby enough that she seemed impractical. She said she gave him the opportunity to be forgiven, she made a ruckus saying she would stand in the vanguard alone, and eventually she looked like this. Maybe it was a trap. When the Marquis looked at his daughter with a stiff face, Lena whispered, holding her right shoulder. ¡°Are you going to kill me?¡± ¡°No.¡± ¡°Then¡­¡± ¡°It¡¯s the dead who killed you.¡± The Marquis affirmed that and glanced at the knights. The knights who were more loyal to the Rubel family than to Duke of the North, even to the Empress, got off the horse silently. Then they pulled out their swords and slowly surrounded Lena. As the knights narrowed her space, Lena lifted her dagger. But she only held it with her left hand, and her right hand didn¡¯t hold it. Judging from her grip on her shoulder earlier, she seemed to have hurt her arm while tangling with the dead. The Marquis looked at the figure and silently smirked. ¡°Go easy.¡± Shortly after, the knights rushed. One-to-many, dagger and long swords. Moreover, Lena was injured. The result was self-evident just by looking at this. However, Lena did quite well and destroyed the assumption. Lena managed to slip the sword of the knight and put her back to the wall of the castle, then she called the Marquis. ¡°Father.¡± The knights¡¯ swords paused in the word of ¡®Father¡¯. But that was not what the Marquis wanted. He was about to command the knights again when Lena asked first, ¡°Won¡¯t you regret it?¡± ¡°Regret?¡± ¡°Do you really think it won¡¯t matter if I die right in front of you?¡± When asked a fleeting question, the Marquis narrowed his eyes. He was confused about whether she was just bluffing or hiding something. Then, he responded unsurely because of Lena¡¯s unpretentious attitude. ¡°You brought it all on yourself.¡± ¡°What did I do wrong?¡± ¡°If you wanted to live, you shouldn¡¯t have noticed me.¡± ¡°You¡¯re wrong, father. I just don¡¯t want to live.¡± Lena shook her head. Then, she whispered to her cold-faced father, ¡°I want to exist. In the name of Lena Rubel you gave me.¡± Lena¡¯s bold voice convinced the Marquis. She was dangerous. Even without being as the evidence of treason, that strange obsession was dangerous enough. And he was well aware of what would happen to someone with such an obsession. ¡°Finish it.¡± Marquis Rubel urged the knights with the feeling of cutting buds. Lena smiled sadly at the determined Marquis. Then, she suddenly shouted. ¡°Come here!¡± Lena¡¯s cry was magnitude as the nearby dead screamed. However, the knights were not panicked. This was the same technique that Lena used when she avoided the arrows. There was no reason to be surprised again. The knights rushed straight with the idea of attacking Lena first. Then a sad smile spread around Lena¡¯s mouth. It¡¯s unfortunate for the Marquis, but what Lena called wasn¡¯t just the dead. Did Prince Ruvid know that the Marquis had left the camp? Even if he knew, he wouldn¡¯t know if the Marquis was in this remote area. And on the other side, as the knights and dead fought, the number of attacks was significantly reduced. So what would Prince Ruvid do in this kind of situation? ¡®Hit the dead farther away.¡¯ It¡¯s not difficult to predict, and it really happened. In the wake of the flocking dead, Ruvid¡¯s attack flew in. Ping! With a sharp wave that cut through the air, the dead who were rushing toward Lena broke in half. And the wall where Lena and the Marquis were standing was also split and slanted out of thin air. ¡°Eugh!¡± As soon as the Marquis¡¯ feet were off, soil came in. The knights had swept away in an instant and the Marquis managed to pull the reins on the horse. But it was useless. The horse fell and bounced off the Marquis. In front of him, who fell off the saddle, there was dark air. The next thing was the fall, and the Marquis sensed his death. ¡®Why¡­¡¯ Gravity, like despair, pulled him. Then, he felt his gut leaned upward. The only thing left was the fall. However, the moment the Marquis was just about to fall, his body shook and stopped in the air. And he felt severe pain in his shoulder and waist. ¡°Sorry, you failed again¡­¡± Without the help of the Marquis to check the situation, a voice could be heard from above his head. ¡°¡­to kill me, to be forgiven.¡± The Marquis raised his head. The first thing he saw was a hand holding his wrist. Then, there was Lena¡¯s smiling face, and Lena¡¯s other hand was hanging on the wall. Lena was holding on to the Marquis in a difficult situation where it was difficult enough to take care of her body. He looked at Lena¡¯s smiley face and muttered without much surprise. ¡°I thought you hurt your arm.¡± ¡°I¡¯ve played some pranks.¡± ¡°¡­. Since when?¡± ¡°Maybe from the beginning?¡± Lena¡¯s voice was so relaxed. As soon as her father saw her, she pretended to be injured for a moment while avoiding his arrows. Because it would be difficult to meet him like this. Lena¡¯s prediction was correct. She was sad to see it. ¡°You¡¯re not angry, right? Of course not.¡± Lena smiled and asked as the Marquis looked at her silently. Then, she added as if she were relieved. ¡°I¡¯m not angry either. I was the one who said I¡¯d give you a chance in the first place,¡± said Lena and pulled the Marquis. Using recoil, she lifted her father up, and then she climbed the wall in a smooth movement. Lena stood as perfectly as a lie, and said to the Marquis, who hadn¡¯t yet woken up, ¡°And until the tomb conquest is over, I won¡¯t hurt father.¡± Lena wouldn¡¯t hurt the Marquis, she¡¯s going to put a bow and enclose it with a knife, but she would just leave it there. Rather than being generous, it was a terrible act. Lena¡¯s mercy had no words of compassion. She was just as insatiable as the Chief Justice who was waiting for the time and counting his sins. He stared at Lena, who was smiling nonchalantly. The situation was reversed, but his face was only a little pale and still calm. ¡®I see, you are¡­.¡¯ In fact, the suspicion that remained on the other side of his heart was resolved, and it was rather regrettable. A young daughter returned from a timeless hell. A child who endured in the battlefield with no ointment, and was chosen by The Duke of the South. Lena Rubel, who always came back to life every time she deserved to die, now tested her father to kill her. The Marquis wanted to kill Lena and wondered how she had come here. What she believed in and why she was so excited. Marquis Rubel finally realized the reality of what he was curious about. It was what Klavis had said. ¡®She has become a monster.¡¯ Lena Rubel came back as a monster. A monster that was so vicious to play with her father in her palm. ¡°What are you going to do now?¡± Said the monster. ¡°Are you going to kill me again?¡± And laughed. 9 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Comments: ? ??(jina****): Personally, Lena is so strong that I don¡¯t think she will be able to avoid it later. Without the public enemy of the dead, the Southern Duke wouldn¡¯t need Lena. The relationship was originally bound by interests. The title of ¡®Executor¡¯ was also she got in the middle of war¡­ it¡¯s sad that more and more people think of Lena as a monster?? ??????(6270****): People are monsters when they can¡¯t understand others. Cardo Rubel, Lena is human. You don¡¯t understand. Chapter 28 At the bottom of the valley, the battle was still in full swing. It was chaotic with the sight of the living and the dead eating each other. So Lena¡¯s smile, which was in full bloom, was rather ridiculously pretty. The Marquis looked at his daughter, who was as clear as a sun, and said in a hoarse voice, ¡°You¡¯re playing with me from the beginning.¡± ¡°It¡¯s a misunderstanding, father. I don¡¯t play with you.¡± Lena laughed at the Marquis¡¯ sighs. ¡°Don¡¯t assume that I¡¯m malicious. Because I really mean to give you a chance.¡± ¡°A chance to destroy me?¡± ¡°There¡¯s a chance to correct a mistake, right?¡± Despite the Marquis¡¯ grudging question, Lena answered lightly. Then, she added as if she was sad. ¡°Of course, you might not think so. Each person¡¯s conscience weighs differently. That¡¯s why I¡¯m giving you this opportunity. If you have no regrets or remorse anyway, you should do something.¡± Lena¡¯s veiled accusations were refuted with a painful face of the Marquis. ¡°Don¡¯t treat yourself as a heartless monster.¡± ¡°A monster?¡± Lena asked as if she had heard something interesting. Then, she suddenly threw her gaze down the valley. ¡°Do you know? Why they wander around like that.¡± What Lena pointed to was those who swallowed the first cry. It was a sudden question, but the answer wasn¡¯t difficult at all. Those who swallowed the first cry said they had a lot of regrets, so they repeated what they regretted as a curse and punishment. A few passages of Empress Niheal¡¯s biography immediately came to his mind, but the Marquis chose silence, he didn¡¯t like the abstract story. So, Lena answered instead. ¡°They killed their own children. Like father.¡± The Marquis had never heard of this before. However, Lena went on as if it were not a very special story. ¡°Isn¡¯t it funny? There are so many people who have ¡®eaten¡¯ their own children.¡± Lena¡¯s smile thickened. ¡°So I don¡¯t think father is a monster or a demon.¡±1 At the same time, both eyes again captured the Marquis. ¡°You¡¯re just an ordinary coward person.¡± Lena Rubel, who held her father in her eyes, whispered, and it brutally struck the heart of the Marquis. He shook it off and stared at his daughter. He wanted to ask what she knew. He wanted to figure out how she dared to evaluate him, who struggled from the bottom up to this place. However, he endured the words that filled his throat. ¡°That¡¯s right, it doesn¡¯t make sense for someone like me to be a monster.¡± The Marquis pressed down his anger and gambled on it. ¡°You¡¯d rather be the one who fits the word ¡®monster¡¯. You are a real monster who shows mercy to your bad father,¡± said the Marquis and slowly rose. The moment he stepped on the ground, his ankle was sore. He must have fallen off the horse and hit the stirrup. What a ferocious sight. Then, he approached Lena, thinking so. But Lena didn¡¯t stop her approaching father. ¡°¡­You¡¯re not even vigilant.¡± He wished she couldn¡¯t be too shallow. As the Marquis approached, he slowly stretched his arms. Nevertheless, Lena didn¡¯t even move. The same was true even after the Marquis¡¯ two hands eventually covered her shoulders. The Marquis, who also considered her as contempt, said with an afflicted face, ¡°Yeah, what can humans do to monsters? You¡¯re all right. I am powerless, so I just bow down and obey.¡± That¡¯s what the Marquis said, and gently pressed Lena¡¯s shoulder in his grasp. ¡°But I still don¡¯t know if the chance you¡¯re talking about is mercy or revenge.¡± ¡°Ugh!¡± A sharp pain stuck in Lena¡¯s shoulder. She was astonished by the fire sensation and pushed her father away. The Marquis withdrew his hands carefully. There was a ring between his open fingers. It was a ring with a spiky spout, spilling poison. Lena groaned, realizing what her father had done. ¡°Father¡­¡± ¡°So let¡¯s check it out.¡± ¡°Like this again¡­¡± ¡°What you are.¡± He ignored Lena¡¯s sobbing and shouted low. Then, he pushed Lena, who was still staggering with his thorny hands.3 ???????????? The Marquis¡¯ ring poison was much stronger than the poison used by the butler. The poison that the butler poured in Lena¡¯s teacup secretly. However, what was on the Marquis¡¯ ring was a poison aimed at the immediate death of the opponent. After using the last poison, he looked down at the wall. Fortunately or unfortunately, Lena¡¯s body was not seen because of the endless mass of the dead. He mumbled in a tired voice, ¡®If you live again, I¡¯ll admit it.¡¯ That she really became a monster. The Marquis turned away with a throbbing body. Then, he walked almost an hour back to the camp. ¡°Lord!¡± The Lieutenant who found the Marquis became contemplative and shouted. But, the Marquis answered before he even asked. ¡°While searching for the castle¡¯s intrusive path, I met the dead. All the knights who accompanied me were lost.¡± It¡¯s a lax excuse. The Lieutenant thought so, but he didn¡¯t ask. The monster¡¯s words were all right. Those who had no strength simply bow down and obey. ¡°How is the situation?¡± ¡°¡­.The damage is great. We¡¯ve already wiped out the dead three times, but they¡¯re coming back from the castle and fighting is still going on. It¡¯s pointless to fight more.¡± ¡°Retreat.¡± ¡°But The Prince¡­¡± The Lieutenant turned his head to the other side of the valley, blurring his words. A sharp strike was still roaring, aiming at the dead. An hour had passed since the battle began, and Ruvid was striking a nasty blow. The Marquis rode on the Lieutenant¡¯s horse and ran to Ruvid. Not surprisingly, Ruvid¡¯s face turned pale and was breathing hard. ¡°Your Highness, I will order you to retreat.¡± ¡°What a bullshit¡­¡± Ruvid growled with red bloodshot eyes. He was full of nerves because of the seldom-captured castle and the constant rush of the dead. ¡°Shut up and kill one more!¡± Ruvid screamed and struck again. The young man, who was busy putting up the war, didn¡¯t count the situation at all. But the Marquis already knew that the Prince would come out like this. ¡°Forgive me for my rudeness.¡± ¡°Ugh¡­!¡± So the Marquis, without hesitation, struck Ruvid¡¯s stomach. Ruvid, who was about to collapse, lost his mind and fell. The Marquis helped the fainted Prince and ordered the knights to retreat. Knights of the North used horses as bait and managed to elude the pursuit of the dead. It was a painful defeat, but the Marquis did not worry. It was thanks to the South and the East. The Southern Duke¡¯s agent, who forced to advance the expedition, was killed in action. Even the Eastern Duke didn¡¯t appear near the castle. The failed South, the fleeing East, and the North fought valiantly alone. Although returning empty-handed, there was enough justification to avoid reprimand. So the Marquis was satisfied with the complicated family affairs and tried to stop. It was then. ¡°My Lord, the castle is falling!¡± The Northern knights were still passing through the valley, and the King¡¯s castle, which swallowed the first cry, suddenly began to collapse. The castle collapsed as if it were melting snow, and the Marquis stopped walking in the unexpected incident. He ordered the knights to confirm. The report back to him was even more unexpected. ¡°All the dead are gone. There was nothing left around the castle.¡± He couldn¡¯t understand the situation. Eventually, he turned his head to where the castle was. As the knights reported, there was not a single dead left. Moreover, the place that used to be a valley turned into a swamp. The melted castle seemed to settle in the valley, creating a swamp. It was difficult to understand anything, but the Marquis ordered a search first. From then on, the knights of the North had been digging through the swamp for five days. But they didn¡¯t find anything. There was no event to harvest, except that Ruvid, who woke up after only two days, had smashed the Marquis¡¯ jaws.3 Five days later, the Marquis stopped the search and ordered to return. Everything remained a mystery, but what was important was the result anyway. The castle collapsed and the dead disappeared. As soon as the Marquis returned, he decided to ring the victory bell. ???????????? After a week, the North returned to Duham Palace. It was Cardinal Klavis who welcomed the knights at the entrance. ¡°The second returnee is the North. Oh, everyone was hurt.¡± Even when he saw the terrible condition of the Northern knights, Klavis¡¯ voice was cheerful. Furthermore, his appearance was nothing different from when he blessed the knights. The same was true for other priests. The Marquis spent a week in the tomb, but only ten minutes passed outside the crack.1 He felt like he had a daydream, but he paid more attention to Klavis¡¯ words, ¡®the second¡¯, rather than the oddity. ¡®If we are the second, the first is the East?¡¯ The Marquis mumbled inwardly. Then, Klavis added. ¡°Then, we have to wait for the East now.¡± ¡®What?¡¯ The Marquis opened his eyes to words that broke his expectations. He looked around the Palace reflexively, doubting his ears. And his doubts soon became astonished. On the other side of the Palace, Lena Rubel, stood side by side with Duke Arles. ¡®Why¡­¡¯ After discovering Lena, his heart seemed to freeze. Then, Lena saw him. When their eyes met, she smiled and bowed beautifully.3 The dizziness resembling that smile hit the Marquis. He felt like he was really dreaming. The image of Lena standing there was like the last thing the Marquis remembered. The torn and battered uniform was proof that Lena had gone to the tomb. It was when the Marquis looked at Lena like a man who found a ghost. ¡°I like this tomb expedition more than anything else. We don¡¯t have to wait a long time for the results,¡± Said Klavis to the crack. Under the red sky, knights dressed in black appeared. It was the Eastern Duke and his knights. When they returned from the tomb, they looked fine, unlike the North. However, as if they had spent quite a long time in the tomb, their faces were just a little rough. ¡°Welcome, everyone. Well, I think you¡¯ve suffered a little there too, how long have you been in the tomb?¡± Klavis asked Lynn, who had just returned. However, Lynn didn¡¯t answer and looked at Marquis Rubel with a dark expression. The Marquis didn¡¯t notice because he was distracted by Lena. So Lynn turned his head after the Marquis¡¯ gaze and was startled. ¡°Duke? Any problems?¡± ¡°¡­Nothing.¡± Lynn, who found Lena, replied belatedly, hiding his surprise. ¡°So, how long have you been in the tomb?¡± ¡°Ten days.¡± ¡°Then, what about the North?¡± ¡°Seven days.¡± Klavis laughed sarcastically at the reply of Lynn and the Marquis. ¡°You¡¯ve both been there for a long time. Dame Lena brought the King¡¯s heart in a day.¡±5 ¡°The heart¡­?¡± Klavis¡¯ words made the Marquis dizzy from embarrassment. He didn¡¯t understand a thing at all. Whether or not he knew his feeling, Klavis stirred up the confusion. ¡°Then, what did the North and the East bring?¡± There was nothing to bring. When the Marquis was in trouble, the knights of the East pulled something down from the horse. Large sacks came down to the floor with a sound ¡®thud¡¯. The sacks piled up on the floor was big enough to accommodate people. ¡°What is that?¡± When Klavis asked, the Eastern knights tore the sack. When the knife was pressed, the sack was torn apart, unable to overcome the weight of the contents. Gold ornaments and candlesticks poured out through the gap. As people¡¯s eyes grew bigger in brilliant gold, the Eastern Duke said in a dry voice. ¡°It¡¯s loot.¡±4 Chapter 29 No content
