Episode 246 79. Goyugi

One.

Halo Reston, the head of the Reston Dukedom, looked at his grandson, resting his head on his hand.

It’s only been a day since I stayed at the palace.

But what on earth is going on?

“lol.”

“What did you do so well that you’re laughing at all! Why don’t you raise your hand right now?”

Halo was carrying a backpack, and Pale was scolding Charon with a red face.

Because Charon was brought in, arrested by the Imperial Guards, early in the morning.

The reason for the arrest was also outrageous.

It is said that he was caught while robbing the royal family’s treasure vault.

“No, why are you only doing this to me? Brother Rebelio was with me too. Isn’t that right, Brother Rebelio?”

Halo’s forehead is already wrinkled.

The majestic appearance of the head of the household gradually disappeared, and in his place was the appearance of a grandfather.

To be exact, a grandfather whose face was wrinkled because of his troublemaking grandson.

But what makes Halo even more infuriating is…

“Pale, if you’re bored, you could raid the treasure trove. There are a lot of eyes watching, so it would be best to be cautious.”

The third elder, Yulich, who was supporting Charon from the side, was his younger brother.

As the elder of the family, I may not be able to set an example,

“Yes. Caron. Did you shave as much as you wanted?”

“Of course, Elder. Oh! I also brought some souvenirs for you elders.”

“Oh! How wonderful it is. Kekeke. The only one who fills the warehouse of Cheonghae Castle is you, Caron!”

Rather, he is praising Caron.

It was clear that the world was turning upside down.

Caron shrugged his shoulders, holding up both arms, and said with a smile.

“Haha. This is basic.”

“But how did you get caught? If you used Pluto’s powers, you could have committed the perfect crime… … .”

“Why did the shadow break? There was an ancient magic mixed in with the magic installed in the treasure vault? I let my guard down… … Brother Revelio, why aren’t you raising your arm?”

Rebelio, who was standing next to Caron, answered with a confident expression in response to Caron’s question.

“I robbed my own treasure trove, so who can punish me?”

Then Pale glared at Revelio.

“Prince Revelio, there is a witness who saw you steal His Majesty the Emperor’s keys.”

“Huh? Of course not. I asked Lord Mason to erase the witness… … .”

“… … Lord Mason himself testified.”

“omg.”

“Please raise your hand and follow Charon. His Majesty has given permission.”

“yep.”

Revelio immediately raised his arms.

In fact, Halo’s gaze was too burdensome for a simple fool.

Halo looked at the two young men who had lost their age and sighed deeply. Then he spoke in a low voice.

“I’d like to hear the reason.”

It was a question I had been waiting for.

Caron answered with shining eyes.

“I plan to create a unique system.”

A must-do for any member of the Reston Duke family who has reached the 8th level.

The Haerang Sword only exists up to the 7th form. From the 8th form, you must create your own sword technique called Goyugi.

That’s because the nature of the sea is different for each one, and the ways to utilize that nature are different for each one.

Halo frowned slightly at Charon’s excuse.

“For the time being, I don’t know what the connection between the ancient artifacts and the treasure vault is.”

“The things I needed to complete the unique device were in the palace’s treasury. Oh, can I put my hands down for a moment? The stolen goods were put in a subspace pouch.”

“… … It’s something to brag about. Take it out and show it.”

“Hehehe, thank you.”

Charon reached into his subspace pocket and immediately took out the items.

Starting with the red elixir known as the Heart of the Mountain, and various swordsmanship books written in an ancient language.

In particular, among the swordsmanship books, there were many that had already been put to use in this world.

“There’s quite a bit of ancient swordsmanship mixed in there too.”

Halo nodded as he looked over the swordsmanship books that Charon had handed him.

The condition of the swordsmanship books was very good thanks to the preservation magic. In addition, all of the swordsmanship books were not in the Cheonghae Castle’s library.

“Is the Haerang Sword alone not enough?”

I already knew that Caron had mastered the Imperial Sword. In fact, Caron’s swordsmanship had a strong Imperial Sword feel to it.

It was an amazing feat in itself to be able to combine two opposing swordsmanship styles, but Caron was looking for something more.

“I’m creating my own swordsmanship, right? I have to work hard at it. I plan to adopt anything that looks good.”

“These swordsmanship styles are all different in nature. Some emphasize gentleness, others emphasize strength, and others dazzle the opponent’s eyes. If you try to grab everything, you might end up losing everything.”

Halo was certain that the unique technique that Charon was trying to create was a sword technique that had never been seen before.

Caron’s method of training is different from that of the Jehae method.

A unique training method of Caron called Jeong Hae-sik.

It will definitely require a swordsmanship that is different from the existing swordsmanship. And it will definitely be a difficult path.

Despite this, Charon’s eyes sparkled incessantly.

“I should try. The ancestral spirit gave me a gift.”

Charon shook the guillotine lightly.

A new ability that Lael Reston unlocked through his coming of age ceremony. That ability should be enough to create the ultimate unique skill.

“Confidence is a good thing.”

Halo looked at Charon and let out a small sigh.

Whether it is confidence or arrogance remains to be seen,

‘I will do it.’

It seemed like Caron would have great success.

‘Talent is what is needed to create something unique.’

It’s not just a talent for using a sword well.

The ability to analyze and apply swordsmanship.

The thing that best shows one’s natural talent is one’s uniqueness.

Charon studied many swordsmanship books on his own since he was young, and incorporated those swordsmanship techniques into his own sword.

Indeed, what kind of unique energy will Charon create?

Anticipation was greater than worry, so Halo spoke in a solemn voice.

“The incident of breaking into the palace’s treasury… will be remembered as one of the many unofficial stories, Prince Revelio. Wouldn’t it be better for you, Prince?”

At those words, Revelio smiled and nodded.

“Of course. It will remain one of the many secrets of the Imperial Family, Your Highness. May I say just one thing in the meantime?”

“Yes, please do.”

“It is not a crime to break into my warehouse.”

“Your Highness.”

“yes.”

“Raise your hands. You are not permitted to put your hands down.”

Revelio nodded and raised both arms again.

Halo slowly got up from his seat and spoke to Charon.

“Are you thinking of returning to Cheonghae Castle?”

In order to create a unique skill, a training facility suitable for it was needed. In the process of creating a sword, the magic power of Cheongmyeong was essential.

“Yes. I plan to make a unique item before going to the Holy Kingdom.”

He had no idea what kind of threats would come his way in the future. He couldn’t stop his grandson from becoming stronger to deal with them.

“The moving magic circle in the palace garden is still in operation. Use it to return to Cheonghae Castle.”

“What about Grandpa?”

“There is still too much to do while you remain here. The number of people returning to Cheonghaesung will be limited to you and Leo. However, I would like you to promise me one thing.”

Halo met Charon’s eyes.

Halo, blue eyes that resembled his own. And those eyes that gave off Cain’s perfume.

“Come back with results that will satisfy me.”

I hope my grandson will fulfill the family’s long-cherished wish.

I want to become stronger than I am now and finally surpass myself.

At Halo’s command, Charon lightly tapped his chest with his hand and answered with a confident voice.

“I will definitely do that.”

“I’ll contact Cheonghae Castle, so head to Cheonghae Castle right away. You can use the Yeongong Room.”

“thank you.”

After finishing his conversation with Halo, Charon stood up and bowed to express his gratitude.

It was time to take the next step.

2.

The imperial garden where the magic circle of movement with Cheonghae Castle is installed.

Here, magicians dispatched from the Magic Tower were constantly moving around, modifying the magic circle.

The Duke of Reston decided to keep this magic circle connected to the palace in operation for the time being.

Just maintaining a moving magic circle costs an astronomical amount of money, so magicians are working hard to reduce the cost.

“Are you running away alone again like a coward?”

Leon looked at Caron with a slight frown. Then Caron smiled brightly.

“The most enjoyable thing is to suck honey alone. But, Sister.”

“why?”

“Sister, are you really not thinking about getting married? If you marry Brother Rebellio, you can become the empress. It’s a golden opportunity to become the real power of the empire.”

“I’m going to figure out what to do with my life, so my little brother, just shut your mouth and go back.”

“yes!”

Naturally, Caron’s cousins ​​were left behind.

Because they still have countless tasks to carry out in the capital.

Caron glanced at Hugo.

“Brother Hugo, please take good care of Sister Leon while I’m away.”

Then Hugo answered without hesitation.

“I don’t care if you’re not here.”

“aha.”

“Have you decided who you will take to the Holy Kingdom?”

“I think I need to think about that. I’ll think about it together while I’m creating the unique weapon. If I had my way, I’d take all three of them… … but there’s no way Grandfather would allow it.”

Caron slowly approached Hugo and whispered in a very small voice.

“Looking at it, it seems like Sister Leon also has feelings for Brother Revelio. It would be nice to have the Emperor as a brother-in-law.”

“… … Have you forgotten all about the times you got drunk and caused trouble?”

“Hey, back then it was a unilateral decision by the adults. Now I’m saying this because it seems like they both have feelings for each other.”

Hugo turned his head and looked at Revelio.

Revelio looks at Leon from time to time.

Her face was slightly red, which seemed to indicate that she had feelings for Leon, just as Caron had said.

Leon also seemed to not dislike Revelio’s gaze.

“I get it.”

“It’s solid, it’s solid.”

Caron turned around slowly with a satisfied expression. Then he spoke to Leo, whose expression was very crumpled.

“Brother, why do you have that expression?”

“… … Can’t I just stay here? Other people are having a hard time, so going back to Cheonghae Castle seems a bit… … .”

“You haven’t really learned anything since you reached the 7th level, right? You should come back with me and practice the 7th form and stabilize your magical power. Then you’ll follow me diligently.”

“Haa… … Really… … .”

I think I’ll take this opportunity to show you Leo’s swordsmanship.

Leo broke through his limits while going through his coming of age ceremony.

Leo, who had only an average talent when they first met, was now receiving attention as the next promising talent after Caron.

‘Raising a child is so hard.’

I fed him all the good things, and occasionally helped him with his swordsmanship.

Of course, it wouldn’t have been meaningful if he hadn’t put in the effort, but Leo had tried hard enough for Caron to acknowledge.

I thought that someday when I reached the Demon Realm, I might be able to leave it to Leo.

So Charon said, pushing Leo’s back.

“Don’t even think about slacking off.”

“I haven’t slacked off since I met you, you punk.”

“It should be like this in the future too.”

The brief farewells with the cousins ​​are over.

Charon looked at Revelio one last time.

“When we meet again, you may not be my brother prince… … but your Majesty the Emperor. Then should I call you Your Majesty?”

“Just call me Emperor Brother. I think that’ll be easier.”

If Revelio ascends to the throne, he will probably learn the secrets of the imperial family.

That the blood of the devil flows in your veins.

It is entirely up to Revelio to keep that secret.

“I look forward to working with you in the future.”

If you ever go to the Demon Realm, you will receive help from Revelio.

Because to conquer the Demon Realm, we will also need the power of the Empire.

“It’s me.”

“Okay. Then I’ll really go.”

Charon stood in front of the magic circle with a smile. He pushed Leo into the magic circle first, and then followed suit and entered the magic circle himself.

Paaaaat-!

A bright light flashed and Charon and Leo disappeared.

Revelio muttered to himself as he looked at the place where Caron and Leo had disappeared.

“I wonder what kind of monster you’ll be the next time we meet.”

Then Leon sighed and said.

“Usually, whenever something like this happens… … I come back in a state that is far beyond my imagination.”

“You’re still a monster.”

“But at the current level, it is possible to control it through the elders, right? But if we achieve great results this time… … Probably no one will be able to stop Caron except for Grandfather.”

“No one can stop him except Grand Duke Halo… … .”

Revelio had his future divined.

The fact that only Grand Duke Halo can stop Charon means that in the entire Empire, the only person who can stop Charon is Grand Duke Halo.

An empire where uncontrollable mad dogs run wild.

“What a disaster.”

“It’s a disaster.”

“… … Is it right for me to become crown prince at a time like this?”

Just imagining it made it seem like it would be an exciting life as an emperor.

“Wouldn’t Charon probably evolve into a catastrophe?”

“Then what should I do?”

“What should I do?”

Leon spoke to Rebellio with a calm expression.

“We’re just going to be swept up in a catastrophe. What can we do?”

A month later, Leon’s prophecy came true.

But until this point, they had no idea what kind of disaster Charon would become.

Unfortunately, that is not the case.

There’s a mad dog living in the duke’s house
