Kaladun Blood Judgment (1)

“Haaaa… … .”

Harang, who finished Masupop with one second of Dragon Sword, took a deep breath, walked unsteadily, and collapsed against a nearby wall.

Rumbling… !!

Perhaps it was because I had increased the correction value of the system’s protection in order to force myself to use the dragon sword while I already lacked magical power, but the whole world felt dizzy and nauseated, as if I was suffering from motion sickness.

As I leaned against the wall and caught my breath, I looked into space and a message came to mind, letting me know that my mission was accomplished.

[Quest successful!]

[The location of the ancient artifact is displayed on the map.]

[Overall abilities increase!]

“Hey, another map.”

Over the past 4 years, I have already received dozens of maps in this way. This means that there are rewards that have not yet been obtained.

Some rewards were found in the Duchy of Kaladan, or more broadly, the Herael Empire, but some rewards were great, but could only be obtained by going to other regions. It is designed so that you cannot receive compensation if you do not go on a trip.

‘I said this reward was a subspace artifact… … ‘I’ll prioritize the rewards I get first.’

Fortunately, the map was marked within the Duchy of Kaladan. There didn’t seem to be a need to go far.

Thanks to the increase in my abilities as a reward for completing the quest, I was able to break through the 60s level of magic, which was impossible to overcome through practice. Since it was an area that could be advanced through very small realizations from the ability level of 60, the quest could be said to be very good in this respect.

‘The magic is listed as 3 stars as expected, but… … .’

Even if he knows how to use 3-star magic, is he really a perfect 3-star wizard?

‘It’s true that my magic is very immature. But there’s no need to worry too much about that… … .’

He was a swordsman anyway, so he only had to learn magic as an auxiliary skill.

I thought so until now.

‘… … It’s more fun than I thought.’

The first time I used magic in real life, I almost struggled from the thrill I felt at my fingertips.

The pleasure of wielding a sword while freely controlling lightning, wind, earth, and flames was incomparable to anything.

Above all, isn’t the strategy of using magic and a sword at the same time almost impossible for ordinary people?

‘I was able to use Instructor Lauren Chegan’s battle spellbook much more efficiently thanks to Silver Heart.’

If Harang had only been able to use swordsmanship, it would have been quite difficult to complete this mission alone.

The thugs were much weaker than Harang thought, so swordsmanship alone would not have been impossible, but being able to use magic itself had various strategic possibilities.

‘Main swordsmanship, magic is secondary.’

Anyway, like a real wizard, I can’t use big magic because it’s difficult to learn.

If only Harang’s sword skills were supported by magic like now… … I thought it was worth learning.

‘Is there no environment to practice magic?’

When Harang looked at Cheongwolheun with a serious expression and thought about such things.

Rustle!

“Wow… … Bah, what just happened?!”

Castia stuck her head out through the ruins of the broken shack and looked up at the sky.

“… Hey, hey, harang.”

“Speak informally?”

“Ha, ha, Prince. “Wizard, where is the wizard?”

“… … .”

At that time, Harang felt like it was a mistake, but he couldn’t pick up the spilled water.

‘If I use magic, I might be able to pick it up.’

Harang shook his head.

“I didn’t see it.”

“No way… … .”

Castia looked around.

First of all, Maspov’s body.

His body was full of wounds from lightning that were even more vicious than the wounds from the sword. Castia, who staggered over and looked at Maspov’s body… … .

“Ha, ha… … okay. “It was something like that.”

Then, as if he realized something, he looked back and forth between Harang and the corpse, then elegantly brushed back his golden hair.

“That’s right. I was a little surprised when I found out that he was a 4-star swordsman, but it would have been impossible to deal with Maspov on my own, right? Haha, even so, I understand that Baek Ya-seong received his ‘graduation assignment’… … .”

Castia wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and staggered back, grinning.

“But you secretly brought a colleague to help you…” … Even the ‘wizard companion’… … Then it won’t work. “Then it shouldn’t have happened, Prince Harang.”

As Prince Castia left, muttering something unintelligible, Harang dropped Cheongwolheun on the floor! After putting it in, she loosened her hair tie and let it go.

The morning sun finally rises, and the world begins to turn scarlet.

Hwii… … !!

I felt the soft touch of freely flowing black hair.

‘… … Anyway, it was going to happen someday. ‘I didn’t know it would be the first mission.’

Although some of his secrets were revealed, Harang was not greatly shaken.

For now it’s just… … I wanted to enjoy this feeling of freedom.

Smelling the scent of the morning air at dawn, something I couldn’t easily feel when I was living as a patient with an incurable disease in my previous life.

* * *

A white thunderbolt explodes in the slums outside the royal capital walls.

With such a loud battle taking place, it was impossible for there to be no witnesses.

First, the Inquisitors of Makeris.

After driving out all the thugs who had followed them to the church, they saw lightning strike from the sky as they raced down the alley to join them even if it was belated.

I knew a long time ago that someone who attacked the church used magic, but since it was my first time seeing such a pure white lightning, it was bound to remain deeply in my memory.

It wasn’t just them. It is said that many people passing by near the royal capital and many people inside the castle witnessed the scorching thunderbolt.

Offensive magic was strictly prohibited in the royal capital, but its use was only permitted to arrest criminals, so this was not a big problem.

As a semi-polden of the Caladern family’s White Night Castle, Harang successfully killed a heretic and defeated all the believers who followed him, so he did not violate imperial law.

… … but.

‘I violated the rules of the Kaladan lineage.’

When Harang returned from the White Night Castle graduation mission, such a rumor circulated among the knights within the castle.

Learned technicians form groups of at least three and up to six people and are assigned graduation duties as a team.

However, Caladorn’s immediate blood relatives had to complete the mission alone. This is due to a variety of complex reasons, such as being lucky and able to achieve results with the help of outstanding subordinates.

This rule, which was created because one can only judge one’s skills by completing a mission alone, has never been broken since the family was founded.

‘Semi Foldon Harang received help from others in his graduation mission.’

Whether the helper is a swordsman or a wizard.

It doesn’t matter.

In any case, if he had not solved the mission on his own but with the help of someone else, even if the wizard who killed Masupov had been a ‘passerby by chance’, the completion of Harang’s mission could have been cancelled.

This is because Kaladun did not wish to complete his first mission in this dishonorable manner.

Because he was a direct adoptee, it was an issue that was bound to be even more sensitive.

In fact, the Inquisitors of Makeris testified that they clearly saw the magic unfolding with their own eyes, and the fallen believers also had clear traces of being affected by magic.

It won’t take long, but once the magic investigation team begins their investigation in earnest, they will soon be able to find out who used magic.

Naturally, this story spread very quickly and reached the ears of not only the third generation but also the second generation.

“… … “You mean that damn adopted child didn’t even know the topic and got caught using an expedient method?”

Rahelen, wife of Duke Kal-El’s second son, Charem Paul Kaladan.

She looked at the golden-haired boy sitting across from her.

Castia, the second prince of the Herael royal family.

In this mission, he has a rivalry with Harang, and he is showing quite outstanding skills as a swordsman, and is said to be a promising talent in the royal family.

It is said that if he continues to grow like this, he can easily inherit the position of general, so his influence within the family will be considerable.

Rachelen, who met him alone, was able to hear a very interesting story.

“It’s an expedient, haha! Yes. It’s expedient. “Even though I received my first mission as a blood relative, I did not know the weight of it and received help from the wizard.”

“Hmm… … .”

This is not an issue that can just be overlooked. If an ordinary pureblood had broken the family rules, he might have been severely punished and passed over, but Harang was a collateral blood relative who was adopted as a named disciple and entered his name in the genealogy.

As such, they must be receiving higher expectations than others… … Do you get help from others because you don’t have the confidence to complete a task on your own?

Even if it was a wizard, it became an even bigger problem.

There were wizards in Caladern, and it was only natural for wizards to participate in wars, but it was never acceptable to receive help from wizards who were not registered in Caladern when it was a mission to prove oneself.

“Prince Castia. “We would like to send our deepest condolences to Semi Foldon Harang for losing his credit for his misconduct in this mission.”

“Ah, yes. “Of course.”

Castia nodded with a solemn smile. He put on a serious expression, trying as hard as possible to avoid being pushed around by the Kala Dun clan, but he couldn’t help but feel awkward.

‘Are you saying that even people who aren’t prosecutors here have this much spirit?’

To be honest, Rachelen was scared from earlier, but Castia had to do her best not to show it.

“However, this is an issue that cannot be passed over without the public credit being taken away. So, they want to convene three members of the Presbyterian Church and hold a ‘blood world judgment’… … How do you feel? “Attending the blood world judgment as a witness.”

“As a witness?”

“yes. As a witness that the wizard helped Semipolden Harang, Prince Castia’s statement is sufficiently weighty and credible. There are already many eyewitness accounts of magic… … “It is sufficient for you to appear and testify as to whether the facts are true.”

Gulp, Castia swallowed dry saliva. He didn’t think it would be an ordinary thing to receive help from a wizard, but he didn’t know that they would even open a blood world judgment.

I didn’t expect the matter to become this serious, so I had a light-hearted meeting with Rachelen… … .

“Son.”

“Yes, mother.”

Hiron, who had been sitting quietly, lowered his head at Rachelen’s call.

Hiron, who turned 31 this year, was a supernova known to the world as Gigi, and was a proud son who had already achieved 8 stars.

Although her husband, Charem Paul Kaladan, did not receive the blessing of regeneration after his right hand was amputated, so he stopped at the 8th level, and was even deprived of all political power, so he had almost no influence within the family… … .

His wife, Rachel Helen, is different.

In terms of influence within the family, she had a fairly high ceremonial rank, none other than because she was Hiron’s mother.

Hiron grew up being evaluated as the greatest talent since Kal-El. Just considering the supporters who believe he will become the next head of the family, his position within the family will exceed 20%.

It was assessed that it was almost certain that he would inherit the family head within a few years.

… … Seven years ago, until Duke Kal-El took in an adopted child with no roots.

The child had no influence within the family and did not have the achievements he deserved, but he was putting Hiron’s ‘top of the order’ position in jeopardy with just his swordsmanship skills.

For Ray Helen, who had worked hard to build up her power and achieve this position, this was truly an outfit explosion!

“Attend the blood world judgment. “It is said that the 2nd Prince Castia of the Imperial Family will be attending as an eyewitness and witness, so please give strength to their testimony.”

“… … “Yes, mother.”

“That’s right. “You’re kind.”

Hiron nodded with a stiff expression.

‘You’re doing something useless… … .’
