Episode 260. The Terrible Man I Respect (1)
“So, your purpose is to bring the demon god back to this land using the demon god’s horn?”
okay.
When I nodded to Urhar's question, he frowned.
“That’s nonsense.”
Of course, I didn't think you'd believe it. No matter how much I think about it, who would have thought that the Fourth Prince would send down a demon god in hopes of 'the fall of the empire'?
'Players, even more so.'
Yulsis was just a character like an isolated island who didn't interfere with the story at all. I didn't expect that the fact that he 'survived' would become a problem and come back to haunt him like this.
‘… … So, it’s harder to convince.’
I looked at Urhar blankly.
He is collecting the horns of the demon god. That fact alone could be considered evidence, but most would think that Yulsis is not the type of person to do such a thing.
To be exact, you must be feeling like you don't have the guts to do that.
'It seems that Abigail is handling external matters under the Emperor's direction.'
I can't convince you. However, I don't think it's necessary to 'persuade' you.
All you have to do is plant doubts so that they can figure it out.
“The horn brought by the emperor.”
I spread my fingers. The three remaining horns, excluding the 'Mashin's Horn' that I currently have. I spread only three of them, as if pointing to them.
“The three horns currently held by the Imperial Family. Do you know where they are, Urhar?”
“Are you asking me to tell you the location?”
“The Cheonseonggo is a storage facility that only the royal family can use. Surely you don’t think there are horns in there?”
Urhar flinched at my words.
“How complacent. If you really thought it was there, then you can only say it was complacent.”
“Originally, it was preserved there. Now, are you trying to say that the horn of the demon god is not enshrined there?”
“It was there. It’s just that Yulsis took it away.”
That's ridiculous.
With that expression, Urhar stuck out his tongue.
“If you’re curious, ask the manager, but? Cheon Seong High School’s 1-3rd building, that’s where the demon’s horn sleeps.”
“Wait, how do you know that!?”
There are no players of 《Jimajuk》 who know all the contents of 'Cheonseonggo', but they know this fact in general.
In rooms 1-3, something unknown is sleeping.
What it was, it remained as an East Egg, but looking at the process, it was easy to guess that it was where the 'horn of the demon' was placed.
“If you want to know, there is a way.”
Of course, I can't go into detail, so I'll just give a rough outline.
“We’ll have to talk about the details of our cooperation later.”
As we continue talking, we see a torch flickering in the distance, piercing the darkness.
Perhaps, it seems like they are the military forces summoned by Urhar.
“……See for yourself. If the demon horn that should be there is not there, then who took it and what is its purpose?”
and.
“Recognize with your own eyes who breaks the rules of the empire.”
“Hey, wait! If that’s true, then what happens next…!”
“I will send someone.”
“People……?”
What are you so curious about, you punk!
As I watched the approaching torch, I became anxious and started to climb up the tree.
After that, he left the place in style, bathed in the moonlight.
It would be nice if it was like that, but it was just looking down like a dead rat on a tree.
‘… … It makes no sense to run away like that.’
I've never done a moonlit acrobatics like that before, so I'm not confident.
Of course, the physical abilities were great enough to make it possible.
‘… …Whether the branch will hold up is another matter.’
In order to win over Urhar, you must use the Black Knight's respect.
'It'll be ugly if you fall.'
In that sense, let's wait. Until they go back.
***
Urhar, who heard the absurd story that the 4th prince of the empire, Yulsis, would revive the demon god, recalled the conversation he had with the 'Black Knight'.
The 'Horn of the Demon God' should currently be in 'Cheonseonggo', but 'Yulsis' stole it.
'That's a lie.'
Urhar continued to think to himself, “This is a lie.”
Nevertheless, his steps headed towards Cheonseong High School. As he entered Cheonseong High School, which was splendidly decorated with gold and black, the colors symbolizing the royal family, the manager came out and confronted Urhar.
“What are the Royal Knights doing here?”
“I want to check the inside of the safe. To see if the contents of rooms 1-3 are correct.”
"hmm……."
The manager frowned slightly and asked Urhar.
“Even if you are a Royal Knight, it is impossible for you to access Cheon Seong Go.”
“Here is the seal.”
Urhar took out the ‘Seal of the Royal Family’ from his bosom and showed it to him.

To be exact, it is the 'Emperor's Seal'.
The 'Horn of the Demon God' that 'Flugel' had previously possessed. This is the seal that was given to him by Emperor Adratan in order to retrieve it.
Originally, it would have been normal to return it to the Emperor, but now that the Emperor has fallen, there is no one who can receive this seal.
‘… …Is this okay?’
Urhar thought. Was it right to use the Emperor's seal so recklessly?
Although he respected and trusted the 'Black Knight', Urhar also trusted the 'Royal Family'.
He thought that Yules was not the kind of person who would do something like that.
'okay.'
Urhart made up his mind.
'If there is no problem, then I will be punished for my actions.'
This is the process of confirming that ‘faith’.
“Hmm… This is the seal of His Majesty the Emperor. Understood, Lord Urhar, please follow me.”
The caretaker of Cheonseong High School looked at the seal that Urhar had shown and began to walk ahead.
The place where he stopped walking was a safe with the numbers 1-3 written on it. When he opened the door, there was a strict barrier inside.
“……There’s nothing?”
There were no items in it.
“Well, didn’t you know that?”
At Urhar's bewildered tone, the caretaker touched his beard and expressed his curiosity.
If you say you don't know here, it's certain to arouse the manager's suspicion.
If he brought the 'Emperor's Seal', he would know the items and circumstances stored in rooms 1-3. That's why he reacted like this.
'If you say the wrong thing here, you could get into trouble.'
Urhar thought about it. However, the time for thinking was short.
“I know that the horn of the demon was kept. I wonder why it is not there.”
Frontal assault.
The doubt on the manager's face slightly faded at Urhar's words.
“You knew. Um…….”
Judging from the manager's reaction, it is correct.
'There was a demon's horn here.'
The black knight's words were accurate.
'The Black Knight, how on earth did he… … .'
I'm curious, but there's something I need to find out first.
“Who took out the horn of the demon that was here?”
“No matter how royal it may be, reviewing the receipts and disbursements records…….”
“It is an imperial edict.”
Once again, the manager looked troubled as he spoke, showing the Emperor's seal.
“According to the records, His Majesty Yulsis…….”
When the name Yulsis came up, Urhar's head began to spin in confusion.
***
There was one strange event for the knights of the Adratan Empire.
That's right, it's the 'Knights' Review' led by Emperor Adratan.
As Emperor Adratan waged a 'war of conquest' and was well-versed in and aware of the importance of martial arts, he summoned his knights once a year and personally inspected them.
“Since His Majesty the Emperor Adratan has fallen, the inspection this time will be conducted by His Highness the Second Prince, Osborn.”
“Then it would be a little less stressful.”
“Of course, His Majesty Osborne is skilled in martial arts… ahem.”
The knights who had been having a private conversation were silent at the appearance of Urhar.
The Royal Knights, Urhar, also participated in the 'Knights' Review'. Even though they were directly under the Imperial Family, once they had the title of 'Knight', they could not be exempted from the review.
The only exception is those knights who are on a mission.
‘… …What is Your Majesty Yulsis planning with the horn of the demon?’
While the inspection was in full swing, Urhar continued to think back on what had happened at Cheonseong High School.
'What do you gain by resurrecting the demon?'
If the disaster called 'Mashin' were to strike the continent of Rosenda again, it is clear that the continent would become desolate like in the past.
No, if something 'if' were to happen in the 'system', then the empire would inevitably fall, no matter what.
Urhar continued to ponder what he wanted to achieve by doing so.
‘… … Do you wish for the destruction of the empire itself?’
Yulsis as the 4th prince.
I have never seen with my own eyes how he was treated as a concubine's child, but I have heard rumors about it.
By order of the Empress, needles are placed in the food.
Noise in bed.
Pig's blood in the bath water.
Urhar heard that there had been repeated lowly acts that were unbecoming of the name of 'noble blood'.
If that could be the reason, then it's wrong.
It was at that moment that I was thinking that.
“It’s been a while, Lord Urhar. May I take a seat?”
A voice was heard right next to me. I turned my head to check the face, and it was Urhar, who was almost frowning.
“Yurien…….”
The identity of the voice is Yurian.
It was as if no time had passed since we happened to meet each other half a year ago.
He approached Urhar, hiding his face with a smiling face.
“You don’t have to ask me. ‘Closed Eyes’ is also directly under the Imperial Family. This position is only given to those who are ‘directly under the Imperial Family.’”
“I see. Well, I guess it has nothing to do with your abilities.”
Hoo-hoo, laughter rang in Urhar’s ears.
A bad relationship that started from Bayer Academy.
In addition, evil deeds committed to enter the 'closed eyes'.
As they began to torment his mind, Urhart turned his head from side to side, trying to regain his composure.
'By the way, what does it mean to send the person the Black Knight spoke of?'
If you organize your thoughts.
To be exact, if you realize that 'Yulsis Lower' is the one who recovered all of the 'Mashin's Horns', it makes sense that he would send someone.
'I learned that His Majesty Yulsis had his horns removed at Cheon Seong High School.'
If so, how would the 'Black Knight' know that fact and send someone?
‘… … By the way, you’re the one sent by the Black Knight.’
Urhart was secretly looking forward to it.
That black knight is the one who sent it.
Sublime as the night.
He is a lonely man like the rising moon.
He is a man who harbors an ideal that cannot be expressed, hides it behind a mask, and navigates the system.
In order to keep a secret close to a myth, he would have clearly sent the person he 'trusted' the most.
“Have you gathered your thoughts?”
The steps taken by the 'Black Knight' were purely for the 'Empire'. So, just when I thought that all his actions would be motivated by a cause, Yurian spoke to me again.
“What are you talking about?”
With a slight frown, Urhar answered, and Yurian answered without taking his eyes off the square where the inspection was in progress.
“What? Didn’t you go to Cheonseong High School?”
