Overgeared

“Did you handle it properly?”

“Yes. We didn’t hide our identities and attacked.”

"Hrmm... why is there no response?”

It had been a week since Grid returned home. It meant it had been a week since the Red Knights and Immortal attacked him. However, the Overgeared Kingdom still hadn’t announced any stance.

"Despite their king being attacked, they didn’t even announce it, let alone react...”

They wouldn’t have hidden it because of fear. Then they must be up to something.

Dok dok.

Limit tapped the table and frowned.

"Did they see our intentions?”

The Overgeared Kingdom could be aware that the empire was starting to split into the emperor and empress. If the Overgeared Kingdom had a capable schemer, they could’ve discovered that the empress was behind the attack rather than the emperor.

“A tough opponent.”

It was correct to say that the plan to use the Overgeared Kingdom to weaken the emperor was in vain.

“It didn’t work out easily.”

Limit determined and glanced at Mercedes. It was a signal to leave. Mercedes sighed with relief after leaving the office.

'For Captain, His Majesty is definitely an enemy.’

After meeting Piaro and Asmophel and finding out the truth. Mercedes had been looking at Sword Duke Limit for the past week. She thoroughly investigated how far Limit intervened in the tragedy that occurred 12 years ago. However, was it that easy to investigate a duke?’ The more she tried to access about Limit, the more interference she faced. One of them was the Fourth Knight.

“Sir Mercedes.”

"Sir Gyuratan?”

The position of the ‘Fourth Knight’ in the Red Knights was special. He played the role of defending the Red Knights from outsiders and performed the work of an inspector in peacetime. The Fourth Knight must constantly observe and watch the Red Knights so that the essence of the Red Knights didn’t fade.

12 years ago, Fourth Knight Gyuratan ruled that Piaro was a traitor. Mercedes trusted Piaro, so she didn’t like Gyuratan from the start. She doubted him. However, now she felt hatred and hostility instead of just suspicion. The true darkness that collapsed the Red Knights. A figure closely related to the Yatan Church. Thanks to Asmophel, she became aware of Gyuratan’s reality.

Mercedes smiled as she faced Gyuratan in the hallway. She didn’t expose any hostility. The basics of a swordsman was to control their emotions.

“It has been a long time.”

"I have been away for a while. I was conducting a review on the death of Third Knight Lorex and Fifth Knight Dia.”

“...”

Lorex and Dia. They were both killed by the Undefeated King’s descendant. They also missed Piaro. Mercedes had briefly thought about Lorex and Dia when she met Piaro a week ago.

If Lorex and Dia were still alive... if they knew the truth...

‘They would’ve cried all night from joy and sorrow.’

They would’ve been a great strength. Mercedes was missing the colleagues she couldn’t meet again when Gyuratan’s voice entered her ears.

“In the course of the investigation, I accidentally stumbled on your traces. Sir Mercedes, it seems like you were in Valhalla for a while?”

“...”

"Did you go after the Undefeated King’s descendant to get revenge for your colleagues?”

“...That’s right.”

“The result?”

“I didn’t get revenge. I couldn’t find the Undefeated King’s descendant."

Mercedes fought directly against the descendant of the Undefeated King in Lubana and knew him. It meant she was familiar with the characteristics of the Undefeated King’s descendant. But despite infiltrating Valhalla for two months, she couldn’t find a person who could be considered the Undefeated King’s descendant.

"You disobeyed a command and couldn’t even get revenge... If you were able to get revenge, I might’ve asked for leniency from the emperor. Now it isn’t possible.”

"What now?"
