Harmonious family meal (3)
While Harang was acquiring the Holy Prayer series skill, the palace was turned upside down.
“What do you mean! ‘A new fall’ has come down in the middle of Calambrinho?!”
“Of course! “Our priests felt it clearly!”
“Huh, really. how… … .”
Admon Aiden, a knight belonging to the Defense Intelligence Corps of the Kaladan Defense Command, looked bewildered when the priests who were praying in the church suddenly rushed over and started shouting.
In order for something called Shinnarim to come down, a barrier must be placed on the outside and the world must be completely cut off to ensure a good connection with the divine.
Because only then can human prayers be heard by the gods beyond the sky.
Is that all? In order to receive divine blessings, one had to become a saint, saint, or pope.
Considering that there were only a few dozen people in the world who had received divine blessings, the fact that such a pillar of light had fallen in the middle of Calambrinho’s palace was unbelievable.
Due to the cries of the priests, this incident was quickly reported to the superiors, and knights stepped forward to track down the divine power. In any case, an outside intruder might have come in.
“Are you saying that a pillar of light was seen in the inner palace, that is, the Green and White Palace?”
It was not difficult to find the location where the pillar of light fell.
There were so many witnesses, and most of the knights who worked in the inner palace to protect their immediate blood relatives felt the strong divine power.
‘Refreshed? That’s bullshit. How can we receive God’s blessings without the help of the Church and the Pope? That must be divine power used for another purpose.’
After thinking that far, Adman suddenly thought of a possibility.
“No way, the Holy Knights are trying to secretly attack our direct blood relatives…” … ?!”
Adman broke into a cold sweat.
Common sense tells us that if something like that were to happen, a holy war could occur, and it would be unlikely that a paladin who believed in God would carry out a secret attack, but we cannot rule out any possibility.
I don’t know what happened, but there would be nothing more shameful than having a blood relative murdered in Calambrinho.
Dozens of knights hurried towards the Green and White Palace, and as if they heard their shouts and footsteps, the main gate opened and Harang calmly walked out.
“Why are so many people gathered here?”
When Harang asked, flipping his sweat-soaked hair behind his shoulder, the knights facing him flinched and trembled their shoulders without realizing it.
Even though his whole body was soaked in sweat and he was far from being ‘clean’, strangely enough, the moment I faced him, I felt pure and clean.
Adman, who was staring at him blankly, hurriedly stepped forward and took a bow.
“Your Majesty Confucius. A strong divine power was detected inside the Green and White Palace, and the knights were urgently summoned. “Is there any problem?”
“Hmm… … .”
As Harang just stared at him without answering, the knights began to think about what they really thought had happened.
Oh my god, Calambrinho’s internal security, which the Knights of Caladun are extremely vigilant about, has been breached?
“What really happened?!”
“No, no. “It’s just that I have new feelings.”
“I have new feelings… … ?”
“There were many situations like this in the past.”
Contrary to Adman’s illusion, Harang was simply recalling his past life. As soon as she opened the door and walked out, dozens of people would rush in and bombard her with questions.
‘Back then, people held out microphones instead of swords.’
He calmly walked past the knights.
“You don’t have to worry about divine power, so don’t worry and go back.”
“… … Sir, do you plan to keep it a secret? No doubt this incident will become known to His Majesty the Duke. “It would be much better for us to accept it and pass it on, rather than having it pointed out directly by His Majesty.”
The tone of voice was as if he was giving advice, but Harang was not a child, so he easily understood it.
‘It’s a threat.’
If you do not tell us, you will receive a direct scolding from His Majesty. So it would be safer for you to tell us.
In some ways, it’s just advice, but in the end, it’s a threat to tell people to tell them what happened.
“… … .”
Harang stopped walking and turned his head to look at him.
Although he was much taller and bulkier than himself, and had undoubtedly good swordsmanship, Admon was clearly a knight under Kaladan.
“It’s scary. “Am I being threatened?”
When I shot him directly, Adman was visibly embarrassed and waved his hands.
“This is not a threat, this is telling the truth. If the truth is going to be revealed anyway, wouldn’t it be better to disclose it safely through us?”
Even as an adman, I felt anxious.
If a divine power as powerful as a god had occurred in the inner palace, it would certainly have reached Duke Kal-El’s ears, but if the Defense Command had no information whatsoever, their abilities would undoubtedly be questioned.
Moreover, if you can obtain information that was not obtained from other intelligence departments, that will also be a good trend in its own way.
No matter what, only by accumulating achievements will you get one step closer to success, so it would be better to interrogate that young master in a semi-threatening manner and get something out of it, even if he looks a little hateful… … .
“That’s strange. If something strange happens in the inner palace, isn’t it your job to be the first to find out? “You’re asking me that?”
“… … !!”
The knights’ expressions hardened at Harang’s lightly thrown words.
Not only did the young master notice that Adman was making a clumsy threat, he tried to use it in reverse to threaten him.
One step closer to Adman.
“Ugh… … .”
Adman swallowed dry saliva. He was so small and young that it barely reached his chest, and he couldn’t bear to look at those eyes that were looking up at him with a cold expression.
And then… … It felt like my soul was about to give in.
Harang absentmindedly looked at the unit marks on his shoulders and chest.
Nobles from a noble background would place their family’s emblem in a small size below the Kaladan insignia, and when they gazed at it through the morning star, the information was printed as a message.
[Belonging to the Naegung Defense Command]
[From the Aiden family]
[Would you like to open and check the list of publicly available blood relatives of the Aiden family?]
No matter how old a knight is, it is rare for him to memorize all unit marks and emblems of noble families. The better the lineage and the better the status, the more there was no need or reason to do so.
However, Harang thought it was necessary to know about this, so he studied it appropriately, and Saetbyeol-an memorized everything and released it like this.
‘Wow, this is really comfortable.’
When Harang reached out and touched his family crest, Adman trembled.
“The Aiden family’s Defense Command Security Intelligence Service… … Admon, is that right?”
“… … !”
Adman, who had no idea whether he knew his family name and name, opened his eyes so wide that they almost seemed like they were going to pop out. The Aiden family wasn’t that famous, so they never had to be called by the Kaladan clan!
“there is no answer?”
“Yes, that’s right! “This is Admon Aiden, the platoon leader of the DSC Security Platoon.”
“okay?”
When Harang smiled softly, Adman almost relaxed without even realizing it. Because that smile was so pure and cute, he felt like a normal kid for his age.
‘… … ‘You got caught wrong.’
Adman felt a chill in his heart. To dare to mention your name and family name, as if you were laughing at a blood relative who had received a clumsy threat from a low-ranking knight, was tantamount to a death sentence that would get you kicked out.
Harang placed his hand on Adman’s forearm and corrected the crooked unit mark and straightened his clothes.
While all the knights were looking at each other with frozen expressions in a rigid and cold atmosphere, Harang slowly parted his lips.
“This is the last time I will tolerate rudeness, Adman.”
“… … !”
Is this really a test?
Adman looked at Harang’s silver eyes looking up at him. The slightly smiling face contained an unknown joy.
“You have no choice but to know what happened here. “I made it that way.”
“Well, that’s… … .”
“The feeling of helplessness when you realize that you cannot do it on your own… … And, because I understand the desperation, I let it go. ruler.”
“… … yes?”
“Why don’t you wipe off your sweat. “You look like a sick person.”
Adman, who blinked as he saw Harang handing him a handkerchief, quickly took it and wiped his forehead. He was surprised when he saw the sweat dripping down his face.
‘You were this nervous?’
That probably meant that he was very nervous at the moment he faced that young master.
‘… … The rumors were true.’
If it had been another blood relative, even if it had been collateral rather than direct, it would not have been surprising if they had immediately beheaded Adman on the spot.
‘No, if any noble had known that the knight under their command had been acting arrogant… … ‘I wouldn’t have forgiven you.’
Most of the fourteen noble families probably did not even fully understand Adman’s threats.
He may have simply been scared, taking it as advice from a subordinate, saying, ‘If you don’t do this, you will be severely punished by His Majesty.’
It’s not because they’re stupid. They could not even dare to think of a knight under their command threatening them, and the ability to understand the situation in a complex three-dimensional manner had not yet developed.
It was extremely rare for a child from a knightly family to have the ability to understand the meaning hidden in a conversation at such a young age.
That something like that is possible without learning… … The experience of growing up as an illegitimate child, worrying about what others thought, combined with the natural talent, may have led to such a result.
“I’ll just leave, I have training.”
When Harang patted Adman’s shoulder and tried to pass by, Adman was so distressed that he wanted to scream from the shame that washed over him like a wave.
‘It can’t be too late!’
He threw all his pride to the floor, ran in front of Harang, knelt down, and bowed his head.
“As a knight, I am ashamed to have committed such a great discourtesy!! Blinded by the desire for success, how dare you make an unreasonable threat to the young master! “I just want to smash my head and die and forget everything!!”
“Uh, no… … .”
Why is he like this again?
‘Do you think I’m going to kill you?’
I didn’t really intend to do that. Harang was not a noble person to the extent of killing or punishing people to this extent. The status of a nobleman can only be used to the extent that one is not looked down upon.
‘I thought I did a good job of explaining it without being reasonably threatening.’
Was that even a threat to the subordinates? Because he was born in a caste-based society and was of the highest class, Harang felt that the society of this world was complex in many ways.
“I said it was done.”
“Even if you forgive me, I don’t think this heavy burden will be lifted from my heart unless I am punished… … .”
‘Are you saying it’s a burden on your heart?’
Certainly, the ‘honor’ pursued by the knights of this world seemed to be acting as a kind of shackle.
‘But I think it would be unnecessarily bothersome and noisy if we bothered to impose punishment.’
Hearing the news that his youngest grandson was punished for being ignored by the officers of the Defense Security Intelligence Service would only hurt his image.
Harang patted his shoulder and smiled brightly.
“Do you think my dignity will drop just because you ignore me?”
“… … .”
“No, not at all. My value is not damaged to that extent. So there is absolutely no reason to punish you. So, take the burden off your mind and go and get to work. “You guys have a great sense of duty to defend the inner palace, right?”
After speaking up to that point, Harang walked quickly towards the training ground.
‘I guess they won’t come after me at this point…’ … .’
As expected, Adman just stared blankly at Harang leaving, but did not chase him.
“So, platoon leader. “What can I do?”
When the knights under his command asked, Adman shook his head and said,
“Please write and post that an unidentified divine power was detected in the Green and White Palace, but the cause could not be identified.”
“If you do that, the unit commander will get angry and ask you if you don’t do your job properly… … .”
“Wow… … .”
The platoon members looked like they were dying. The headquarters commander had a harsh personality and harassed the platoon members every day, and as a subordinate, he had no choice but to follow suit.
“Hehe, I don’t like that either, but what can I do? “It’s hard, but you have to endure it.”
The unit commander, Eolchaji, was definitely scared, but it was only physically difficult.
However, receiving those cold eyes from Harang… … It was an instinctive fear that I never wanted to experience again.
More than anything.
I hated it even more to be hated by the young master who knew how to generously forgive the mistakes of lower-ranking knights, and who had a great spirit even though he was still young.
‘The first meeting was the worst, but thanks to it, I was able to see the youngest master’s true character in person. This is enough.’
Adman said, wiping away the cold sweat that had not yet dried.
“Let’s warm up a bit before heading back. “The unit commander’s ice cream will definitely have to be rolled out on the parade ground.”
“Ugh… … .”
Hearing the dying voices of the knights, Adman immediately gave the order to return. Then he looked back at the Green White Palace once again.
‘… … It’s cold and empty.’
The inner palaces of other direct blood relatives were thoroughly protected by countless knights and soldiers, but this was not the case for the Green and White Palace.
Establishing soldiers in each inner palace was entirely the ability of the blood relatives, and in principle, the Kaladan family did not support soldiers.
Adman had a strange feeling when he learned that at most, a few mandatory patrols were all that could protect the Green and White Palace.
Such nobles are not rare.
Children of nobles who are treated poorly for various reasons, such as being illegitimate children, being born second, and not inheriting most of the power, can be seen everywhere.
It’s not bad, but as Adman, who had heard many stories of people born with only a noble name, becoming crooked, wasting their time with only pride, and then getting ruined and being kicked out, I found Harang to be amazing.
Without having to go far right away, aren’t Adman’s younger brothers being imprisoned now after causing accidents here and there because their father cold-heartedly kicked them out, saying they had nothing to pass on?
‘Young Master is different. If you have that level of courage, one day you will leap to a higher place, and the empty Green and White Palace will be filled with countless followers… … .’
As Adman thought about it, another thought suddenly occurred to him, but he quickly shook his head.
‘… … There’s no way they’d accept a worn-out article like me.’
He walked away with a bitter expression.
