Grave Keeper of the Fallen Kingdom

Chapter 92

Master-class inspector.

No matter how tough and strong the monsters of the northern black land are, they can’t beat a master swordsman.

In the past, when Günter Heider was the lord of Ain Bayer, and when the swordsman of the previous era protected the north, a master-class warrior was the best defense by itself.

One of the reasons Ain Bayer, who currently has no master class, has been keeping this place intact so far is because of the presence of Günter Heider, who still remains among the monsters of the Black Land.

“what… … , You mean that?”

– yes!

Günther frowned with a proud reply.

– But Stefan abandoned my daughter! Thanks to someone, the North is holding out safely until now!

“Doesn’t everyone have their own way, Mr. Günter? The Sir Stefan I saw was someone who wanted to protect the people of the citadel more than anyone else.”

– Are you defending him in front of me?

“It’s not like that, but isn’t Günter the lord of this place as well?”

– okay! So I know better!

“Does anyone you know say something like that?”

– what are you talking about?

I felt a little bad listening to it.

It had only been less than a week since he came to the North. I don’t know much about the North yet. But I knew this much.

“The warriors of the north are working hard every day. They risk their lives to go outside the walls, and even though they are supposed to rest for a day, they train to die without taking it off even once.”

– … … .

“Tomorrow, while worrying about who will disappear next to me, when I wake up again, I train and work hard several times more to forget the empty vacancy of someone.”

If someone listens to me, they might snort.

You might ask, what do you know from just being together for a few days?

However, during that short period of time, I faced them face-to-face and shared the battle between life and death.

I felt their mindset, passion, and will.

They somehow managed to live in such an environment full of cold, which could be unfair in some ways.

Some may complain right away. Someone else might leave Ain Bayer tomorrow.

However, at least those who remain now accept the current situation and live.

It was unacceptable to denigrate those who live and strive in reality, whether by will or will.

“How could someone who knows better than anyone else say that?”

– … … I was frivolous.

For the first time, Günther admitted his mistake.

– I lost my reason at the death of my daughter and my eyes were covered. I’m out of date now too.

“It is true that Mr. Günther’s presence is protecting Ain Bayer, but we must not forget that their efforts are being supported.”

– Huh, I never thought I would hear something like this from a kid who just came up to the North. Admit it.

“Sir Stefan wouldn’t have wanted to. I think there must have been circumstances.”

– Yeah, maybe something happened. however! What I don’t like is what I don’t like. Responsibility to protect people, that’s a good word. But in a way I can’t understand.

I didn’t bother to answer that.

Do you have different beliefs and beliefs?

Gunter would probably do his best to save even one soldier who was kidnapped.

Of course, whether that’s the right direction or not depends on the person.

– … … But why are you here? The guy who said he wouldn’t even learn archery.

“Do you know about the troll warchief?”

– Troll Warchief? why is that guy

I told Günter about what had happened a few days ago.

– Whoa… … , You mean you fought together with Sara-sama? It’s amazing.

“Thanks to you, we saved our comrades and survived, but the troll warchief is still alive. If this continues, he will recover and threaten Ain Bayer.”

– Unfortunately, I don’t know much about the troll warchief. But, I can figure this out.

“What is it?”

– If you fight again now, you will surely lose in nine out of ten. Of course, I don’t know if I fight with Sara-sama.

Günter said in a serious voice.

That’s why they said that they almost won, so don’t rush into it with arrogance.

“… … Isn’t that why you’re looking for a way?”

I know.

That I was really lucky.

At that time, I was completely mixed with Sarah, and the troll warchief was careless and didn’t fight properly, so I was able to get a fatal blow, and I was able to survive because he was scared.

– The resilience of trolls is very good. No matter how mortally wounded he must have recovered quite a bit by now.

“That’s why I have to kill him before he recovers any more.”

– You can’t do it right now. Look at your physical abilities. Isn’t even Stefan not good enough?

That’s right.

Having faced the troll warchief in person, I was also aware of it.

You need to raise your physical abilities to the level of a senior knight.

“But isn’t that impossible in a short period of time?”

– Then there’s nothing you can do about it. You don’t have to force yourself to do something that doesn’t work.

“after… … , Let’s go for now.”

Frustrated, I came all the way here and talked to Günther.

The image of the troll warchief stuck in his mind. I kept dreaming of the recovered guy leading the trolls and slaughtering the people of Ain Bayer.

“uh? Isn’t that Lord Ren?”

“The Hero of the North!”

“Len! Aren’t you going out?”

“This is fruit, eat it!”

“I’m here too… … .”

As I walked down the street, people recognized me.

In just three days of lying down, rumors spread throughout the fort.

The hero who slashed the troll warchief and saved the warriors of the north.

It was hard to manage my expression when my name was called from all sides.

I didn’t kill the troll warchief, and I won’t be able to kill him in the future, but isn’t that a title too excessive for someone like me?

“uh? Aren’t you the hero of the North?”

Ralph approached and asked in a playful voice.

“what?”

A very sharp voice came out.

I felt a bit sensitive after the dream in which the troll warchief tried to kill people.

“uh… , You look a bit unwell, don’t you?”

“Oh, no. I became a little sensitive.”

The guy who used to treat me casually before is now looking at me carefully and sparing my words.

“My father called. Now that Sir Ren is awake, we need to discuss the next strategy right away.”

“Next operation… … . let’s go.”

Following Ralph’s guidance, I went straight to the conference room.

All the executives except me were already gathered.

Other than that, there are members of the Black Panther unit.

“Here you are.”

“Sit here, Ren.”

The seat next to Alan was empty.

The meeting started when I sat there.

“As everyone knows, the situation is not good. The installation of the magic tool failed and the troll warchief appeared in the snowy mountain. He will soon unite the trolls and create a huge force.”

The scale of the mountains in the north is staggering.

If you go a little farther than the beginning of a mountain range that is not a black land, the range becomes very wide.

Only the mountain range near the citadel has been pioneered, but the region beyond it has not been visited.

It is unknown how many trolls there will be.

How many more monsters are there beyond the black land?

“He was mortally wounded by Ren, so he wouldn’t have gotten very far. There must be a reason for being around him.”

Olive said.

“Okay, since Ren is here, let’s ask him. How do you think the Warchief is now?”

All eyes in the conference room were on me.

“I probably didn’t recover much. The wound was pretty deep.”

“Considering the trolls’ resilience, wouldn’t the warchief recover faster?”

“If it was an ordinary troll, he would never have recovered and eventually died.”

The last blow… … .

Obviously, I used the Havenberg sword technique, the slash, but the power contained in it was a little different.

The speculation that the troll warchief gave off… … , feeling similar to that.

‘Yes, that was definitely speculation.’

The fighting spirit of wild ferocity possessed by monsters.

Sara had put that fighting spirit in my slashing, which was manifested by fighting like crazy and killing opponents.

‘How on earth… … ?’

Troll Slayer’s power to kill trolls.

When I was fighting the trolls, I was in a trance and didn’t know it, but now I seemed to know.

The reason I was able to fight so well back then.

‘I need to meet Sarah.’

As I got out of my momentary contemplation, the eyes of the officers were focused on me.

“I’ll probably have to move as quickly as possible.”

“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

“Your chance to kill the troll warchief is now.”

* * *

Last time, they moved in small numbers to avoid being discovered by the monsters of the Black Land, but this time it was different.

It was decided to expand the radius of activity more actively by dividing it into three units.

Members of the Black Panther Unit are a search team to identify the location and movement of the trolls.

Stefan and the soldiers set up magic tools towards the border of the black land.

Lastly, the Amaranth Knights wait for the support of their allies while gradually expanding their camp from the rear with Arthur.

‘And I meet Sarah and join the Black Panther Knights.’

I don’t know if it was the aftermath of the troll warchief’s appearance, but there were no obstacles in my way to Sarah’s place.

“Sarah!”

– Ren? You live!

“yes.”

– thank god. I thought I was really going to die when I was buried in the snow.

“I have a question.”

– Are you asking about the troll warchief?

“Yes, there is that too… … , Did you use fighting spirit when fighting the trolls then?”

Sara makes a surprised face.

An expression as if to say, ‘How did you know that?’

She nodded meekly.

– that’s right. I couldn’t bring out complete speculation, but you were able to survive because of it.

“How the hell do humans use speculation?”

– There’s no reason you can’t write a human. I simply kill trolls with the desire to kill them constantly, so I can use my fighting spirit.

“Can I do it too?”

– hmm… … , I can’t guarantee that. In fact, is it surprising that you noticed the speculation? Usually, I don’t even think of it as speculation.

“I was just speaking out of feeling. Can you elaborate?”

I think you need to know exactly about speculation.

It is a feeling that you must know in order to move forward.

– Fighting is a type of energy that is completely different from energy or mana.

She briefly explained speculation.

– Envy is the momentum of the object. It is an intangible power that manifests the achievements and will of that existence.

I feel like I know it, but I don’t really feel it.

It’s definitely different from the use of ki, but I’m still not sure how to use speculation itself.

– Don’t try to understand. It’s still a long way from you.

“hmm.”

– In fact, I’ve reached that level only with trolls, but that speculation doesn’t happen when dealing with other guys. A troll limited master?

“… … Do you really have to learn martial arts to become a master?”

– okay. Well, it’s different from speculation, but… … , It would be enough for you now to know that much.

“Is it different from the speculation written by the troll warchief?”

– It’s different. In the first place, they and we are different from the process of obtaining that speculation.

“Is that so?”

– To put it bluntly, they are speculative. Speaking of the momentum created by endless fighting and slaughter, humans usually call it speculation that arises beyond the limits of the species, beyond the limits of the extreme.

“There is a difference. I understand for now.”

Realizing its existence is enough for now.

Now that I’ve solved my curiosity to some extent, I’m going to go find the troll warchief again.

“Do you have any idea where the troll warchief went?”

– Troll Warchief? Are you sure you want to catch him?

“yes.”

– Even if he’s injured, it’s still impossible for you alone.

Same thing as Günther.

swarm… , okay. I also think it’s impossible.

However, I have always managed to overcome dangerous situations somehow.

Every time I approached the threshold of death, I became stronger and as a result, I was able to get to where I am today in a short time.

“Impossible, isn’t it impossible?”
