Episode 171 Show me your justice (2)

Although Hesabel gave a cool answer, she was at a loss when trying to find Sidric. Elil believers do not trust suspicious-looking people with hoods pulled down over their heads. Moreover, if the person the suspicious person is looking for is a respected swordsman and priest, the Sword Master.

However, Heshabel was a beautiful woman who received the blessing of the Red Grail.

Unfortunately, few people suspected the mysterious beauty who appeared from the fog in the middle of the night.

‘Well, although Elil cried out for justice, honor, and courage, he ended up being seduced by a beautiful woman and had his heart ripped out, right?’

Although it was an apostate religion, Hesabel felt a strange sense of superiority as she saw people falling for her temptations.

‘But if you want to tempt and trick someone, it has to be the big guys, not these petty little brats. You have to be able to deceive the world like Isaac… … .’

With that in mind, Hesabel persuaded a waitress at a bar near the port. Just because Hesabel lifted up her hood slightly and smiled, she was over it in an instant. As Isaac himself proved(?), inhuman charisma attracts people beyond gender.

And Hesabel was finally able to obtain helpful information.

“Sidrik? “That sword master?”

“huh. “The elderly person I take care of owes something to him.”

When Hesabel said she would trim her nails, the waitress gave up her hand and smiled brightly. Rather than grooming, it was just a simple massage of the fingers and stroking the nails, but the waitress seemed to know that this was just an excuse.

“Are you sure you’re talking about the person who came in with Salt Ain Bae not long ago?

“huh? Ah, that’s right. “It will happen.”

“yes. I remember the Salt Ain ship because it is rare to see it here. “I saw him get off there with a lady.”

Naturally, Hesabel first tried to find the sailors who came with the Salt Ain ship. However, the crew left Aldeon immediately after entering the port and unloading their luggage. Like she’s never coming back. Although the circumstances were suspicious, the priority was to find Sidrik.

“You recognized him right away as Sidrik? “Do you think he’s handsome?”

“Oh, I come to this bar often. It’s a secret, but he said he was Swordmaster Sidrik and asked if I wanted to be his lover for a while. But he said the same thing to other friends besides me, so I refused. “I don’t even know if he’s really a sword master.”

“… … .”

“But I like you more than that person… … .”

“Roel! “What are you doing there?”

At that time, I heard someone shouting my name from behind me. Hesabel unconsciously tried to look behind her, but she felt a stabbing presence in her back and froze.

It’s not an illusion. He Sabel could clearly picture herself being stabbed in the back the moment she turned her head.

“Do you think they are friends? “You’re making a rare friend here.”

“hello. Mr. Sidric.”

The waitress stood up with an expression that seemed like she didn’t feel the murderous intent stabbing Hesabel. Her clasped hands hesitated for a moment, but she seemed more eager to escape than to be present.

“It’s a secret that I’m Sidrik.”

“Among the kids around here, there isn’t a single one who doesn’t know Mr. Sidric’s name.”

The waitress hurriedly whispered to Hesabel and retreated.

“The person you are looking for has arrived. I’ll see you again after our conversation. “Of course.”

“Uh, yes.”

Hesabel smiled awkwardly and answered. Immediately after the waitress left, Sidric looked at her back and then trudged over to Hesabel’s side. Heshabel poured out curses in her heart that she could never reveal to Isaac.

What does it mean to avoid a violent death? Even now, Sidric was able to kill Hezabel several times.

widely. Sidric sat next to Hesabel and naturally put her arm around her shoulder.

“A rare friend here. “Why am I looking?”

***

Hesabel smiled and turned her head.

He was a handsome man with long hair down to his shoulders. Since he was a sword master, I imagined him to be a muscular, red-eyed madman who was crazy about swordsmanship, but he looked more normal than I expected.

Hesabel froze and made eye contact with Sidric. At that moment, the life that was surrounding Sabelle melted away like her snow.

Sidric hastily took his hand off her shoulder.

“Uh, hmm, huh. Are you a lady? “This is me being rude.”

“… … .”

Hesabel wondered if Sidric was making fun of her because of his reaction. But as a follower of the Red Grail, skilled in seduction and deception, Hesabel noticed that he was really nervous.

Immediately afterwards, Heshabel’s instincts opened her eyes.

“This is the Swordmaster Sidrik I’ve only heard about.”

“Hmm, I recognized it right away. Has my fame spread to Walaika?”

“Sure.”

Of course, Heshabel first heard Sidrik’s name from Isaac.

“How did you know I was from Walaika?”

“I knew for a while that there was someone looking for me. I was slowly observing the Walaika headhunter to see why he was looking for me, but it seemed like he had finally approached me, so I came to warn him and say something. “If I knew you were this beautiful, I would have talked to you a long time ago.”

Sidrik cleared his throat and drank some water.

“I’m the one who put my mouth to it.”

“Cough.”

“are you okay. “Drink it.”

Hesabel relaxed her body, leaned loosely on the table, and looked at Sidric.

It was a simple gesture of coquetry, but Sidric showed signs of nervousness, uncharacteristic of a libertine.

Heshabel could tell that although he acted like a libertine, he was in fact inexperienced with women, and that this was his first time experiencing this type of ‘temptation’ that was different from that of the crude women of Elil.

“By the way, Mr. Sidric, what brought you to Aldeon?”

Isaac said he only needed to find out Sidric’s whereabouts, but since this was happening, he decided to find out as much information as he could. Fortunately, Sidric seemed like an easy opponent.

“me? “I just did what my employer told me to do.”

“By your employer, do you mean Lady Rosalind?”

“okay. He was originally Margrave Theo Saltaine, but… … “He died on the way, so the employer has also changed.”

Sidrik answered coolly. It seemed like it was information that everyone already knew anyway.

“Then Mr. Sidric, shouldn’t you be protecting Lady Rosalind? “Why are you here?”

“Yeah… … .”

Sidric was about to answer when he stood up and glared at Hesabel.

“Don’t tempt me, you…” … “Lady!”

Hesabel looked dumbfounded when the strange title came out, as if she couldn’t bear to use an insulting expression. Nothing she had done so far wasn’t even a temptation to her.

I just asked some questions to lighten the mood.

“Are you planning to seduce me and get information out of me? Sorry, but I don’t give in that easily!”

People around looked at Sidric when he suddenly made a loud noise, but then turned their heads. The waitress heard the commotion and hurriedly came running.

“What’s going on?”

“this… … “The lady seduced me.”

At those words, the waitress looked at Sidric as if he were dumbfounded.

“Sidric does this to us every day, too.”

“It’s different from that! This lady… … .”

Sidrik’s eyes wandered as if he was looking for something to say.

The waitress glanced at Hesabel. From her perspective, Hesabel was dressed tightly and her expression or mood had barely changed. Compared to her appearance earlier, where she was clasping her hands together and making fun of her, Sabel was really doing ‘nothing’.

The waitress sighed and grabbed Sidrik’s shoulder and pressed it. Sidric sat back down in his seat helplessly.

“Don’t make a fuss and stay quiet. Sister, if this person does this again, please tell me. “I’ll kick you out right away.”

“Yes, thank you.”

After the waitress left, Sidric looked even more depressed and tapped the table. After a long silence, Hesabel opened his mouth.

“You’re Swordmaster Sidrik, right?”

“… … right.”

“I was sure until now, but now I’m a little doubtful.”

“I’m just a little weak towards women. “There are six sisters above me.”

Sidric glared at Hesabel.

“For what purpose are you tempting me?”

“If I had made up my mind to seduce him, he wouldn’t have even known he was being seduced.”

She knew more than a hundred ways to seduce these mugworts.

“I don’t know for what purpose you are trying to seduce me, but it would be best not to give in easily. This is Elil Kingdom. “It’s no place for a vampire to hang around.”

“And where the most just and bravest knights win the beauties. Of course, you came because you wanted to take a great knight from the Kingdom of Elil, right?”

As Hesabel said this, she slightly lifted her hood and tucked her hair behind her ear. Hesabel was momentarily at a loss for words and was even more speechless at the sight of her Cidric staring at her.

If the goal was assassination, they would have lured him into a room and put a knife to his neck, but he never received such an order from Isaac.

“So, you don’t want to tell me a secret?”

However, Hesabel did not forget her role as an information collector. She looked even more agitated as she lay still on her table and looked up at Sid Leak.

“I don’t like men who keep a lot of secrets.”

With that, Sidric seemed to have completely gotten over it.

He soon opened his mouth as if he had made up his mind.

“Are there many beauties like you in Walaika?”

“… … .”

A waitress-like, disdainful expression passed over Hesabel’s face.

***

“Security for Lady Rosalind? “That’s it?”

“yes. To be precise, he said that he would help Lady Rosalind find her justice. “She even asked me if she was targeting King Ethelred, and she said no.”

Isaac was speechless at the information Hesabel had learned. He thought it would be a great achievement just to find Sidrik’s location, but he met him in person, talked to him, and even interrogated him. Of course, there is a possibility that Sidric lied, but I thought the probability was low right now.

At least the possibility of Sidric attacking Ethelred directly has disappeared.

“That’s amazing. Good job, Heshabel. “It’s a good thing I left it to you.”

Hesabel’s arrogance, which was already high after ‘seducing’ the Sword Master, grew even higher due to Isaac’s praise. Hesabel, her self-esteem filled, spoke triumphantly.

“If I seduce you a little more, I think I might be able to find out more information. Shall we try?”

“Um, no. After hearing the story, it’s more dangerous than I thought. Even if it’s frivolous, a sword master is a sword master.”

In fact, when he received a strong request for help from Hesabel, who encountered Sidrik, Isaac was already running towards him. However, he soon received notice that he did not have to come.

Fortunately, things worked out well, but I remembered how urgent the situation was at the time.

Because Hezabel could not resist and almost died.

‘The salvation that Lady Rosalind seeks, and the justice that Sidric will bring to her… … .’

The most intuitive metaphor is a duel. Because it was the most common conflict resolution method in the Elil Kingdom. But no matter how great a pirate Lady Rosalind was when she was young, she is now too old.

However, it was not appropriate for Sidric to challenge Ethelred. Before that, we will have to defeat the countless knights guarding Ethelred. Even if it was successful, it was not a profitable business, no matter how much gold was received, considering that it would incur a huge amount of resentment.

‘Salvation, and justice… … .’

As Isaac repeated this, something suddenly occurred to him.

In an instant, he got up from his seat.

‘Holy sword Kaldbuch.’

The meaning of the name Kaldbuch is ‘justice.’

“Find King Ethelred. right now.”
