Grand Duke of the Heibern House

Chapter 28

＜Episode 28＞

Gyrobel.

Right before he casts his last spell, which prepares for the collapse of his soul.

– Gyrobel.

– Why is that? It’s an important moment.

– I won’t say thank you.

– Crazy guy.

A soul that is getting more and more crushed.

Gyrobel, who was struggling in pain, spoke with difficulty.

-Turn it off… … I have some request.

-say.

-If I succeed, my end like this… … Don’t bother talking to me in the past.

-… … .

Luin did not answer at the time.

Because I already knew that I was going to say it all.

As expected, the current Gyrobel could not stand it.

– aaa! dare! dare!

It was only for a moment that I was cold.

Neither did he admit that he had sacrificed himself for humans, nor that he had been destroyed by humans.

‘Gyrobel… … .’

In the past and even now, Gyrobel is Ruin’s strongest hand.

His full cooperation was what Ruin desperately needed.

Hostility towards ‘him’ is the most effective way to elicit cooperation from Gyrobel.

Having lived as an immortal demon, the fact that humans destroyed him was fatal to his lofty ego.

-Where is that human bastard now!

“I don’t know.”

It wasn’t until the very end that the guy revealed his true identity.

Until his abilities fully matured, he disguised his identity to perfection.

It is unknown what kind of person he is living as now.

They may be disguised as royalty, nobles, or commoners, or even different races.

-Find him right now! Even if I forcibly break the barrier and summon my body, I will lead him to ruin!

Luin laughed bitterly.

In the past, in fact, Gyrobel ignored the ‘oath of beings’ and broke the barrier of the dimension.

He summoned the main body and confronted ‘him’, but was defeated horribly.

Louin didn’t even bother to say that.

“I promise you, Gyrobel.”

Ruin laughed cruelly with a voice that seemed to spit out all the emotions inside him.

“… … I will definitely find the one who annihilated your soul. The screams of countless souls killed by him and the souls of friends sucked into the dimension of nothingness will point to him.”

In an instant, Gyrobel stopped being mad.

Ruin’s oath was so terrifying that even the demon god himself stopped breathing.

It was only then that Gyrobel realized the kind of human she was facing.

A human who has tens of thousands of years of hatred engraved into his soul.

Has there ever been such a thing in human history?

Ruin’s spiritual status was equal to that of the demon himself. No, maybe it was more than that.

at that time.

Kiyi Iik-

Bernheneum, a sound breaks the silence of the huge hall.

It was Dane who entered with the dazzling sunlight.

“older brother.”

The older brother staring blankly at himself.

Dane couldn’t even breathe.

An expression so terrifying that even Danes, who have lived their whole lives surrounded by countless powerful members of the family, cannot shake off their fear.

I thought I had grown quite close to my brother over the past time, but that was a complete mistake.

How can a person, a human being, show such cruel emotions on their face?

“Is it a call from my father?”

“… … .”

Dane felt an indescribable sense of helplessness in his older brother’s expression, as if he knew everything.

Even the great family of the kingdom, Hibern, a master of swordsmanship, seemed small to his older brother.

Dane realizes all over again.

From nob le mt l. co m

From the beginning, it might have been a cumbersome cover for his older brother to have the grand duke status of the Heibern family.

“After meeting alone with my older brother, the first prince suddenly returned to the capital city.”

It is embarrassing that the royal family, especially the first prince of Lemadel, left without staying a night.

Relatives of the family who have prepared grandiose ceremonies and hospitality will surely make a fuss about what happened at the private meeting.

“What about the wise men? Did they go back to the Mage Tower too?”

“no. He said he would meet his older brother and is now with his father.”

Ruin nodded once and moved on.

“let’s go.”

Bernheneum fell back into silence.

* * *

When Ruin and Dane appeared in the room, everyone’s eyes were on them.

Kazen, who had been staring at Ruin for a long time with an overbearing look, opened his mouth heavily.

“What the hell did you say to Prince 1?”

Instead of answering, Ruin stared at Yucain, the knight of the Royal Guard. Receiving Ruin’s gaze, he shook his head thinly.

Ruin immediately realized that he hadn’t properly reported to his father yet because of the wise man’s party.

Soon, Ruin sat down at the round table.

“I told you the circumstances of our territory in detail, and the royal family allowed the operation of the Paneom Mine. I also promised to return the management rights as soon as the territory is stabilized, and this was also accepted without difficulty.”

Ruin’s dry attitude, like someone else’s, made Kazen feel different.

“I guess that’s not all.”

“Other than that, it’s difficult to say because it’s a personal matter.”

“Personal?”

Kazen’s eyebrows twitch.

As long as he wore the grand duke’s robe and had a private meeting with the first prince, all the words exchanged with him were public.

Kazen noticed that Ruin was hiding something.

“The elders of the family are concerned about the sudden death of the first prince. If anything unsavory happened, tell me in advance here.”

“Not at all. Nothing unpleasant happened. Well, even if I had a personal affair, wouldn’t you find out soon anyway?”

Even in the midst of this, Luin doesn’t believe in himself and is asking why Yucain was attached.

Kazen was embarrassed, but because of Ruin’s strange glance, he didn’t bother asking further.

Because his eyes were on the sage’s party.

As the atmosphere became threatening, the wise man Egios started to ventilate it.

“Prince 1 is a person who hides a deep inside in his liveliness. If you rushed back to the capital, there must be a reason. I guess you don’t have to worry too much. Rather… … .”

Suddenly, Egios stood up slowly towards Ruin.

“The head of the household said it was a miracle. I can’t help but say that it’s a miracle to see the Archduke in person like this. I congratulate the Archduke on his recovery.”

Egios blesses with bows.

Ruin also smiled and did his best as a grand duke.

“Miracles that come for no reason do not exist. It was possible because the wisdom of the Mage Tower did not turn away from our family.”

Egios was silently looking at Ruin and smiling.

It was certain that the terrible curse that bound Ruin had truly disappeared.

Although he was still emaciated, there was no trace of the curse that was gradually drying up.

Egios looked at Kazen again.

“You are the standard bearer of the kingdom. If there’s nothing left to do at the Mage Tower, we’re about to head out. No matter how much we adore the Hibern family’s chivalry, we can’t help but catch up with the 1st Prince after he left.”

“Huh.”

Less than half a day had passed since the royal envoy arrived, and the first prince and the wise men all left.

However, Kazen had no justification to stop Egios from following the first prince.

at that time.

“Wait, Egios.”

Ruin’s sudden call.

Egios smiled politely at his serious expression.

“Does the Archduke have anything else to say to me?”

Ruin spoke the words he had been planning since the moment he heard the news that the wise man and his party were heading to his family.

“Ruin of the Hibern family. I ask for the wise teachings of the Royal Magic Tower.”

“yes… … ?”

Egios was momentarily dazed to the point of thinking he was testing himself.

This is Hibern, the rider of the kingdom, the swordsman of the lion, and the great master of swordsmanship.

Could the grand duke of such an amazing swordsman family really want to learn magic?

“you… … !”

Kazen was furious, his thick beard shaking.

However, after looking into Ruin’s eyes, which were as clear as water, he sighed.

By the time that meticulous and bold son spoke out his promise, the talk had already ended.

Even if you thrust a sword into his neck, you wouldn’t be able to break his will.

“That word can’t be… … Are you saying that the Archduke will learn the magic of our Mage Tower?”

“That’s right.”

“hahahaha.”

Ruin’s request was not something that could be dismissed as a simple boy’s curiosity.

He is none other than the grand duke of the Hibern family.

Also, the place where the standard bearers of the kingdom are together.

In the end, Egios stared at Kazen without a word.

This wasn’t something I could judge on my own.

A matter directly related to the identity of this great master of swordsmanship.

The fact that the Heibern family’s heir would learn magic was a big topic in the Lemadel Kingdom.

Kazen’s intense eyes turned to Ruin.

“You won’t give up, will you?”

“Why do you ask if you know it well?”

“Can’t you just ask once?”

Kazen, who was tongue-tied at Ruin’s reaction, had no choice but to ask Egios. He seemed to have lost some of his strength.

“Do as he wills. Aegios.”

“her… … ?”

Egios never thought that permission would come out of the head of the Hibern family.

The urgent voice of Egios, who had been so embarrassed, flowed out.

“My lord! The world of wizards works in a completely different way than that of aristocratic society. The moment the Archduke entered magic, immediately… … .”

Ruin cut off Egios.

“I am not unaware of the thorough status order of wizards. A hierarchical system distinguished only by the realm of magic. I had no intention of asserting my family’s prestige in the Mage Tower in the first place.”

“But the Archduke.”

I mean, it’s easy.

But what kind of mage would dare to treat Ruin once he knew his background?

The Grand Duchess of the Kingdom, and also a Horseman.

He is the heir to the honorable Hibern family, who have carried the kingdom’s chivalry for over a thousand years.

He had a background that was too burdensome for the Mage Tower to accept.

“But we also have a principle. The Archduke has already contained the lion’s speculation. It is extremely difficult, if not impossible, for a knight to accept mana. You cannot raise a person who does not belong to Mana as a wizard.”

at that time.

Tsutsutsutsutsutsu-

The sage Egios was dazed as he looked at Ruin’s suddenly summoned Aether.

A magic ball that floats in the air while spraying an indescribable energy.

Egios was unable to say anything at the sight of him emitting a brilliant light and spinning proudly without rest.

After coming to his senses, he hurriedly began examining the magic orb.

I constantly looked at the mana circuit to see what kind of spell was replaced, but the results were surprising.

‘What the hell… … ?’

With any magical knowledge he knew, he couldn’t figure out the magic orb summoned by Ruin.

“Great, Grand Duke! What kind of magic is this… … !”

Two rings are revealed at that moment.

Weiying-
