Grave Keeper of the Fallen Kingdom

Chapter 81

The name of that woman who comes to me and starts a fight right away is Carly Argen.

A swordsman who uses double daggers, which is rare even in the Argen family.

Judging by the fact that he hasn’t pulled out his dagger yet, it doesn’t seem like he really came to fight.

‘hmm… … , Was it from Uncle Cleta?’

She, a collateral, has only one reason to come here.

To deliver Uncle Cleta’s message.

That’s why it must be a fight with a face full of dissatisfaction.

‘Because Arjen isn’t one of those people who would be intimidated by a light reputation like mine.’

Compared to Argen’s name that resonates throughout the continent, the reputation I now have is nothing but new blood.

Not to mention, even the rumors are mostly floating noises that are not clear.

Moreover, people in my family witnessed my childhood, so it is only natural that such rumors would be more implausible.

“Let’s stick together?”

“What are you going to do if you get stuck?”

“It doesn’t matter because I will win. Why am I losing to you?”

It’s to the point where you can feel that this guy is also quite reckless, just by saying a few words.

Since when have there been so many fools in Argen?

No, are these guys stuck in Brilliant right now?

“Then there’s no reason to stick around.”

“Why do I have to come here and serve as a messenger because of you? That’s reason enough! Are you annoyed?”

“That is your case.”

“pup. So you’re not sticking?”

“okay.”

“A bastard like goblin footwraps.”

“what… , what?”

“It’s like a guy who’s about to be stabbed in Drake’s nostrils.”

“… … .”

– Hey! Is that friend very talkative? also! it’s argen

Porter clapped in admiration.

I don’t want to defend Arjen, but Arjen’s image isn’t like that.

“Are you just leaving?”

“You said you wouldn’t stick? What are you going to do?”

I really wanted to stick with it and fix that quirky hair, but I held it in.

I didn’t like it because if I stuck with him, I felt like I would be swayed by him.

“Give me a message from your uncle.”

“Chit.”

“Chit?”

“A long time to the mansion. I have something to show you.”

Apparently, he left last time to show his ability.

Since there was no contact after that, I was doing something, but are you trying to show it now?

“when?”

“today.”

“i get it. good.”

I waved my hand as if it was annoying, so she turned around while swearing again.

He is a very talkative guy.

‘By the way, what did you prepare?’

Even though Uncle is forced to live in Brillant by the head of Argen, his influence is stronger than expected.

I don’t know exactly what he’s thinking. However, at least I felt that he was not hostile to me.

If I go this time, I’ll know what he thinks.

* * *

The gorgeous and luxurious mansion in Brilliant is where the people of Arjen stay.

Following Carly’s guidance, Ren arrived at the mansion and was greeted by Cleta.

“I heard you have something to show me.”

“He has a quick temper. Look at the papers lying there.”

Picking up some neatly laid out papers, Ren meticulously read them from the beginning.

“This… … .”

Before reading the first chapter and even turning it over, Ren grasped the gist of it and looked at Cleta with his eyes wide open.

Cleta raised her head with a calm expression as if it was nothing special.

Ren finished reading the document he was reading.

‘How could the timing be so right?’

The content contained in this was proof that the first prince, Lev, and the perverted old man of the Privy Council, Furbant, were behind the scenes.

Each other’s ledger of transactions.

It was the full text of an attempt to manipulate the opinion of the Privy Council and manipulate the king by exchanging bribes.

‘If this is the case, even King Maurice will not be able to embrace Lev. Besides… … .’

Support from Ain Bayer Fortress, northern part of Rosaria Kingdom.

In order to withstand the harsh northern cold and fend off the northern monsters, Brilliant used to maintain diplomatic support with the Kingdom of Rosaria.

And the plan to send Louise to that diplomatic post was written here.

“Sending Prince Louise to the conference… … . It is a trap.”

“that’s right. Ren, I thought you would notice right away.”

Cleta, who took a leisurely sip of tea, laughs as if it is ridiculous.

The composure that only comes from the strong is contained in that smile.

The confidence to coordinate and control any situation.

Ren had a hunch that most of the plans were already concocted in his head.

“Prince Lev must have known Prince Louise’s personality and did that.”

“yes. Since Lev and Alan spent the last desert expedition together, they know they can’t do the same thing this time.”

“I will send Prince Louis to an important meeting with Rosaria to show my kindness, and I will make Prince Louis go to the north on his own… … . Well, I guess that’s the plan. In addition, while Prince Louis is away, he will put some pressure on his forces.”

“Accurate. But as long as we know the plan, it’s all futile.”

This information that Cleta brought was difficult information to find out unless it was a person who was really deep inside them.

That means it’s lethal to enemies.

When asked what he had been doing, Ren had never thought that he would be making such preparations.

How the hell did you find it? It’s hard to know unless you’re Ferbant or Lev who made this plan yourself… … , no way?

“Furbant is a greedy old man. There will be no one in power who has not received the old man’s back money.”

“Is your uncle in there too?”

“okay. To that old man, Arjen would be something he needed to catch, but… … , To us, Fervent is just a baby snake that can be struck and killed at any time.”

A low-pitched voice.

As expected, Cleta was also supposed to join Furbant and Lev’s plan. And he was trying to break that temporary alliance because of Ren.

To Cleta, this level of work was neither particularly important nor difficult.

Ren nodded his head after realizing how much Argen’s power was.

“What do you want to do?”

“… … I’ll take care of the furbent. Prince Louise’s meeting… … , Let’s wait for that first.”

“What are your thoughts?”

“yes.”

“good. Let’s end this with this.”

After saying that, Cleta looked at Ren.

“So that’s what I mean.”

“yes.”

“Can’t I learn a bit about that skill called moonshine?”

“… … yes?”

“Big, big.”

Cleta clears her throat and looks elsewhere.

Ren stared blankly at him and let out a smirk.

“Please come to Decane again next time. I will teach you then.”

“Really?”

Cleta, who spoke but didn’t think he would listen, asked with wide eyes.

“yes.”

* * *

“Captain! Aren’t you too busy these days?”

“Paul’s sister is waiting for the captain! ha ha ha!”

“Is the captain really popular?”

“Well, if I were a woman, I would have fallen for you.”

“Women would have lined up if it weren’t for that chilly personality. Too bad.”

The Golden Lion Knights, who were resting after training, looked at Ren and said playfully.

“noisy.”

“Captain, your younger sister came to see you earlier.”

“uh? Is Lesia?”

“yes.”

“You mean the captain’s younger sister? You say you are very beautiful! Dominic! Are you the only one watching the leader’s younger sister?”

“hey! I won’t let you go if you cheat on Lady Lesia even a little bit.”

“You bastards! Do you think I am you?”

“shut up! I’ll take a 5 minute break and start training again. Dominic, Andrew.”

“to!”

“yep! Captain! Did you call?”

After summoning Andrew, who was particularly energetic, Ren stopped him and tapped him on the shoulder.

“You two know how to train well. Be prepared if you get caught resting secretly.”

“yes!”

“If I have such people, I will fix them somehow!”

“Yeah, yes.”

Whenever he was being cocky, when Andrew suddenly changed his attitude, Ren gave an awkward reply and left.

‘What is Lesia doing?’

Ren went straight to the administrative office where Lesia was.

“Are you here?”

The administrative assistant, who was sitting in his seat and looking at the documents with an expressionless face, greeted Ren.

Ren also looked for Lecia after lightly ignoring it.

“Where is Lecia?”

“I went out for a while. It should be in the backyard below.”

“thank you.”

Looking out the window, Lesia was slowly walking around the backyard.

Although it was quite far away, Lesia’s expression was clearly visible.

A face full of worries and worries.

It was clear what was going on.

“Lesia.”

“uh? I’m here?”

“What’s wrong with your expression? what’s the matter?”

“Ah, that… … .”

It’s a very familiar look.

The expression you see when you are seriously thinking about something and hesitate to speak.

The expression that was revealed when Ferbent bullied Lesia in the previous life began to appear again.

“Mr Fervent… … .”

Lecia hesitated, then slowly solved the problems that had been happening.

It is said that the number of times they bumped into each other while working increased, and they pretended to be friendly and touched Lesia’s body more frequently.

Moreover, the fact that he keeps asking me to come to the mansion to play now, I thought it would only get worse if I stayed still, so I brought it up after thinking about it.

Hearing this, Ren’s expression gradually hardened, and he unknowingly clenched his fists.

“This damn bastard… … .”

“Oh, brother! calm down! Don’t get too emotional, let’s slow down and think-.”

“No, you just do what I tell you to do. no. you stay still I’ll take care of it.”

“process? what to do… … .”

Ren jumped up from his seat, gritted his teeth, and dragged Lecia back to the administrative office.

“Are you here already?”

“Excuse me, Administrative Assistant, but can we, Lecia, leave work early today?”

Ren comes into the office and asks to let Lesia go.

He might be embarrassed, but he still glanced at Lecia with an expressionless face and nodded.

“All right. Lecia, go home early today and rest.”

“yes? But I have too much work… … .”

“It’s okay, you can rest.”

At the words of the administrative assistant, Ren thanked her and sent Lesia home.

Then, I ran down the cramped hallway to the drawing room where Furbant was.

‘I was thinking of taking care of Furbant once, but I never thought that time would come so soon.’

I tried to take care of it in a neat way after looking at a little more opportunity, but I can’t do it anymore.

A little longer, and the perverted old man would cross the line.

Sigh.

When Ren opens the door and enters, Fervent greets him with a meaningful smile.

“Are you here? Captain Ren.”

“… … .”

“Looks like you have nothing to say. The face isn’t like that.”

As if he had already foreseen that Ren would come because of Lesia, Fervent, who was sitting leisurely, gestured to Ren.

“Sit down.”

He was full of anger until he came running, but after seeing Fervent’s face, his head cooled rather coldly.

Ren took a seat first to hear what he was thinking.

“Yes, Len Argen. Arjen’s illegitimate son, an unfortunate genius swordsman who was kicked out of his family. I can guess why you left the family. He probably fled to Brilliant because there was severe internal checks and exclusion.”

The reason Fervent was so confident was because he had already completed the background investigation on Ren and was confident that he could lead the situation.

“Skill enough to reach a high-ranking knight at that age. Admit it, Argen’s blood doesn’t go anywhere. He’s a true genius when it comes to swordsmanship. But without power, no matter how genius you are, you can’t do anything.”

Ren stayed still to hear how far he had found out and what he was doing with confidence.

“Hmm, don’t you want to tell me? Or do you not understand? Hey, now you believe in Travis, how long do you think those humans will help you? It will be thrown away when it is no longer useful. Even if it is not abandoned, it is not enough to leave only Travis in the background.”

“So, what do you want to say?”

“I will be your background. Do you know how many powerful people are behind me?”

“… … That means there is something to be desired.”

“hehehe, you’re smart as expected, so you can communicate very well. Well, nothing special. I just want to be friendly like this. what… … , It’s even better if your sister gets along with you. Come visit our mansion too, but it’s better if your brother comes alone. hehehehe.”

Ren couldn’t listen to him anymore because his ears seemed to be rotting.

That’s all I can think of rationally. Now I thought to be faithful to my feelings.

“Tsk.”

“now… Did you click your tongue? What is that expression?”

“What?”

Ren stood up and kicked the table between him and Fervent.

bang!!

Fervent, who had been pushed against the table and fell back with a chair, fell face down on the floor.

“Hup! Hey, what are you doing!!”

Furbant screaming in bewilderment.

Ren ignored his words and walked slowly.

“you you! Don’t you want to go back to your family? Do you want to be rejected even in Brilliant!”

“If you can, try it.”

Whoo- Puck!!

“Queek!!”

Fervent, who had been kicked in the stomach by a boot, rolled on the ground moaning in pain.

“Do you dare to do this without incident?”

“Tsk, if you’re going to do a background check, you should have done it right.”

puck! puck! puck!

He grabbed Furbant by the collar and punched him in the face three times in a row, causing his face to swell and bleed profusely.

“Ugh, behind me… , there is Argen!”

“Arzen?”

I never thought I would mention Argen here.

Ren, who was about to snort at Furbant’s filthy and filthy appearance until the end, realized that he was actually annoyed to a certain extent and twisted his mouth.

“Then ask that proud Arzen.”

After saying that, Ren laughed and left the room.

Fervent, who was soaked in the blood from his nose, glared at the door Ren had left, shaking his fists.

“this… , like a dog!”

Furbant didn’t understand.

What kind of guts did the guy who had been hiding in Brilliant in order to increase his power do something like this?

Considering Ren’s personality, I was sure he would never run into him recklessly.

But to swing your fists at all… … .

“I will kill you… … !”

Fervent barely got up and stood up from his seat.

It was so badly trampled that it was difficult to move even a little. I moved my creaking legs, then gave up and sat down in a chair.

‘Yeah, don’t trample properly. What kind of expression would you make if you were buried under Arzen, whom you hate so much?’
