The Northern Grand Duke’s Crazy Son-in-Law Chapter 59

‘this-.’

As the old man’s breathing stopped, an egg fell from his cane.

A giant crab rolled towards Galahad.

Galahad stared at the man quietly.

‘That’s dangerous.’

It was just a feeling, but Galahad trusted his instincts.

Thump! Thump!

The Egg of Pain urged me to eat it right away.

Galahad quietly examined the egg.

I tried sprinkling some mana on it, but it completely disappeared.

I couldn’t help but be impressed. Even though it was an egg that had lost its host, it still seemed to be of a higher rank than the Egg of Pain.

The Egg of Pain was no match for him, so it was dangerous to simply consume it.

Ding ding, the egg of pain shook violently.

This time it was really different, it seemed like he could do it.

Galahad did not believe the words of a cheapskate.

I quietly calculated the situation.

The old man had lost a lot of blood, but that wasn’t the cause of his death.

‘Basically, there is a host consciousness.’

It might be dangerous to eat, but it probably wouldn’t kill you.

However, since this one was cheap, it still needed some polishing.

Galahad moved his knife.

The egg was not hard. It was cut lightly like jelly. The cut part turned to ash and blew away.

I didn’t feel like it was a waste to throw it away.

Originally, too much was worse than too little.

I cut off quite a bit, but the center still felt dense, as if it was the kernel.

Galahad stabbed him with a fork.

Thump! Thump! The egg of pain kept beating.

I brought it slowly into my mouth.

‘hmm-.’

Galahad let out a low, sullen sigh.

Something indescribable came over me.

It wasn’t mana or vitality. It was a sensation so intense that it shook my mind.

The Egg of Pain jumped at the bastard with joy.

When the two collided, the insides shook. It felt like something was exploding inside.

Galahad pursed his lips.

Blood flowed down the corner of his mouth.

Boom! Boom!

Although Galahad was accustomed to pain, this kind of pain was new to him.

The Egg of Pain rushed in and tore at the bastard. The Egg of Pain and the bastard rolled around.

As the bastard opened his mouth wide, the egg of pain dodged. A sharp pain struck him.

‘Can’t you do it straight?’

At Galahad’s scolding, the Egg of Pain hurriedly caught the bastard.

He’s a loser, yet he’s still struggling.

It was clear that it was the lowest level.

‘Oh my, my life is in the hands of the lowest egg.’

As Galahad clicked his tongue slightly, the egg vibrated loudly.

The egg of pain was pushed by the bastard. I put it in for him to eat, but he bit me instead.

Brrrr-! The egg of pain shivered loudly, like a scream.

He ran in with such confidence, but he ended up losing.

You can’t even eat what’s being fed to you.

‘That’s ridiculous.’

The Egg of Pain vibrated urgently. Help! Help! It seemed to cry out.

Galahad clicked his tongue and opened the water bottle.

As I put the water bottle to my mouth, a cold, disgusting sensation went down my esophagus.

The Egg of Pain that had been pushed away was delighted. The opponent was not interested in the blood of the Demon Tribe. The Egg of Pain absorbed the blood of the Demon Tribe.

The Egg of Pain, who was now in high spirits, began to counterattack.

The Egg of Pain cornered the bastard and tore at him. The things that flowed out spread all around.

“hmm-.”

Galahad squinted his eyes. The scattered things spread inside Galahad. His heart beat wildly.

The argument went on for a long time.

It was only when Galahad’s mind began to cloud over that the Egg of Pain began to consume him.

With each greedy bite, a weight grew on my chest.

At that moment, the Egg of Pain began to tremble violently.

Unlike before, the shaking was abnormal.

As if I couldn’t control myself-.

‘You, come to your senses.’

In the ominous atmosphere, Galahad urgently called out for the Egg of Pain.

‘I was joking. You’re not a cheap egg. You’re a decent egg.’

The Egg of Pain did not answer.

Galahad frowned.

At that moment, the egg of pain suddenly stopped.

For a moment, my vision was dotted with dots.

A terrible silence engulfed Galahad.

I tried to snap my fingers, but there were no fingers.

When reciting the spell to him-.

I felt the gaze of a giant being.

The giant being asked.

Who are you?

He answered him.

It’s Galahad-.

*

Hold on.

A heavy feeling brought Galahad to his senses.

The egg of pain was pressing hard on my heart.

‘this.’

Galahad coughed slightly and shook his head.

The moment the Egg of Pain took over the atmosphere, I lost consciousness.

‘I’m losing my mind.’

Galahad frowned.

I felt strangely uneasy.

At that moment, I felt the gaze of the Egg of Pain. That feeling was greater than before.

It felt like a lump of pain was forming.

‘Hey, can’t you eat one of those? Are you going to punish me for this?’

At Galahad’s scolding, the Egg of Pain clutched its heart tightly.

The force was stronger than before. It really felt like my heart was being grabbed.

Of course, I didn’t mean it sincerely.

If Galahad dies, he’s finished too.

Still, I needed to break the habit.

‘I guess I should ask Adrianna to touch my breasts.’

The startled Egg of Pain vibrated. As if it had originally intended to massage me, the Egg of Pain pressed down on my heart.

The skill was quite good. It was also quite refreshing thanks to the increased strength.

It felt more energetic. It seemed as if the life force accumulated in the Egg of Pain was working.

Knock knock-.

The egg of pain nodded hurriedly.

‘You will live a long life.’

Galahad muttered a joke and put the tobacco in his mouth.

At that moment, the egg of pain shook hard. It felt like it was dancing.

‘Does it seem like something has increased?’

The egg of pain shook twice slightly as if to show off.

Mana came out of the Egg of Pain, but in greater quantity than before.

Roughly-.

‘It’s about twice as good.’

For example, it was said that if you drink one can, you will spit out the equivalent of two cans of mana.

It was a significant increase in efficiency.

Even so, it was considerably inadequate compared to what the old man had.

Ah. I clicked my tongue slightly at my pounding heart.

‘Stop biting.’

He snapped his fingers and lit the cigarette.

The sweet scent of lemon spread, waking up my heavy mind.

Galahad felt a subtle sensation.

‘It’s a magic mirror, but magic is easier than before.’

Although it was somewhat lacking compared to a real demon realm, the concentration of mana was so thick that it could be called a demon realm.

Originally, using magic was difficult, but now magic has become easy.

There may be a difference in concentration, but that’s not all.

‘It seems like my constitution has changed.’

I got a little closer to mana-.

Galahad snapped his fingers again.

The ash surrounding it was pushed back.

‘It definitely got easier.’

There was only one guess. When the Egg of Pain disintegrated the bastard, the scattered things were absorbed. That was likely the effect.

The egg of pain clucked arrogantly.

For the first time, I wanted to caress the egg of pain.

‘It has become easier to move mana in the Demon Realm.’

Galahad raised the corners of his mouth as he looked at the ashes that had been pushed away.

I was wondering how to respond to the invitation from the high-ranking demon, but it seems like I found a way.

‘I guess I’ll have to find more eggs.’

The Egg of Pain nodded vigorously. It felt like communication with the Egg had become a little easier.

“Are you done?”

A thick voice was heard from the side. It was First.

Galahad nodded lightly.

“Are you thinking of running a black magic society?”

First asked, pointing to the warlocks displayed at the back. Pumpkin nodded.

Galahad nodded obediently. The First was asking for formality anyway.

“Do you know those guys called Yeomyeong?”

This time Galahad asked.

The first showed no change at all. It didn’t breathe heavily or blink.

“That’s confidential.”

“I’m still an agent, too.”

First raised the corners of his lips instead of answering. Asking further would yield no answer.

However, it was known that even the information agency was aware of the dawn.

“So when are you guys getting married?”

“Huh?! What are you talking about!!”

Pumpkin started the game. Galahad laughed at that.

“Pumpkin is a bit shy. She’ll get married earlier than you.”

“Ah, please stop talking nonsense… I’ll go in first!”

Soon Pumpkin and First moved away.

Galahad looked at him for a moment, then shook off the tobacco.

“Palho.”

“yes.”

Palho prostrated himself before Galahad.

Galahad stared at the eighth sword for a moment, then opened his mouth.

“Thank you for your hard work. From now on, you are the president of the society.”

Palho’s body trembled.

“I won’t make it long. Do your best.”

As he spoke, Palho bowed his head deeply to Galahad, who was rummaging through the corpse of the president of the academy.

I was sincere.

Helkarton came to his senses with a splitting headache.

My memory was hazy.

Clearly entering the sanctuary-.

‘A monster knight!’

A monster that could handle magic attacked-. That was Helkarten’s last memory.

Helkarten looked around hurriedly. It was a space filled with sacred ash. It seemed to still be a sanctuary.

Helkarten sighed softly at the overwhelming atmosphere of the sanctuary.

Is this what it feels like for a fish that has been out of water its entire life to come back into the water?

Helkarten just stood there blankly, not even needing to move his mana.

There were sighs from those around. The other warlocks seemed to be rising one by one.

“Everyone, stand up.”

At that moment, a leisurely voice was heard. I turned my head and there was the man I had been looking for.

It was a man who came out of dawn.

The man’s appearance was not good. There were long scars on his waist and shoulders, and his hair was a mess.

Yet, his unique leisureliness remained the same.

“Okay, everyone knows who this is.”

The man shook something as if he was taking something out.

What the man was holding in his hand was a very thin academic paper. It had no life in it at all.

There was silence for a moment.

What kind of person is the president of the society? He is the owner of the Black Magic Society and the person who reigns supreme over them.

How could they make such a president of the society like that?

“Well, as you can see, the president is dead. We need to elect a new president.”

The man’s words brought Helkarten to his senses.

‘I’m finally the president of the society-.’

Helkarten hurriedly controlled his expression.

“I think the reason the Black Magic Society ended up like this is because of stagnant water. The president of the society didn’t change, so it ended up stagnant and rotten.”

That was right.

The Black Magic Society has never had a president change.

“I want to prevent him. Shouldn’t the president be someone who can further develop the Dark Magic Society, rather than someone who is simply strong?”

The response was overwhelming.

It was an overreaction, but they didn’t notice.

“Show your loyalty to the Dark Magic Society! Prove it with your sweat! Then anyone can become the president of the society!”

The man spoke quickly. There was a strong force in his voice.

Those who were fascinated by him responded wildly.

It had to be that way.

Anyone can become the president of the society.

Isn’t this about giving everyone a chance?

“Ah, but we can’t leave the president position vacant, so we’ve decided on an interim president. Now, come out.”

The man pointed to Helkarten.

Helkarten ran out. The warlocks’ eyes were filled with admiration. Those eyes were hot.

“I’ve also chosen someone to assist you. Let’s call him the vice president.”

A guy wearing a crow mask appeared.

There was no such thing as a vice president, but this was not the time to worry about such trivial things.

He became the president of the Black Magic Society that secured the sanctuary.

I couldn’t help but laugh.

“I rate you very highly. You were driven out by some group in the center, but your passion did not give up! How many hardships did you have? You overcame those hardships and opened a sanctuary. You are pioneers!”

Some people covered their mouths in sobs.

It seemed like the hardships of the past had passed by.

“As I said before, the president of the society is now performance-based. The member with the best performance each quarter will become the president.”

Everyone sighed out loud.

The door of opportunity is open. Everyone’s eyes sparkled.

Except for one person.

Helkarten opened his mouth urgently.

“What are you talking about! Changing the president every quarter? Being the president of an academic society is not such an easy position.”

“Didn’t you nod when I was talking about the stagnant water? Oh, so you changed your mind after becoming the president of the society?”

Helkarten’s face turned red at the man’s blatant remark.

However, I couldn’t back down.

The moment I tried to refute him-.

Krererererere!

A strange sound was heard. Helkarten turned his head to it and his face became sullen.

A huge, horribly-looking monster was running towards us.

That was a mid-level monster, Sobangi.

An intermediate level monster in the sanctuary.

Although better than demons, demons were also the natural enemies of magicians.

When everyone was screaming and trying to run away-.

“I told you to tie it up well. It’s Gwen.”

The man clicked his tongue and snapped his fingers.

A small spark flew between the man’s fingers.

Helkarten was slightly astonished at the sparks that grew in size and became more detailed with each splash.

It was a ridiculous mana manipulation.

Lightning that had quickly taken the shape of a flower flew towards the monster.

The time it took was a moment.

However, Helkarton squinted his eyes at the lightning shooting at the monster.

‘Using magic on a monster? How stupid.’

Magic doesn’t work on monsters. That was common sense.

Even if I get the president of the academic society-.

at that time.

······!!

The lightning-struck monster let out a terrible scream.

It was a scream so desperate that it gave chills to the listener.

The blackened monster fell down.

thud-.

Because of its large size, the sound was heavy.

A heavy silence fell.

At that moment, the man’s gaze turned to Helkarten.

There was no emotion in those eyes. There was just a hint of fatigue.

“Um, what did you say?”

Helkarten quickly answered the dry question.

“I’m curious about the details of your performance!”

“Ah, as expected, he is the temporary president. He is very enthusiastic.”

Helkarton nodded vigorously.

“Ah, your performance will be judged in various ways, but the biggest factor will be the amount of magic stones you acquire. As you know, the main fuel of the sanctuary is magic stones.”

The warlocks cheered at the man’s subsequent explanation.

Mining magic stones was something even a low-level magician could do.

But, it is a very radical promise that if you mine a lot of magic stones, you can become the president of the society.

“I will open a sanctuary to those who work diligently. However, to maintain the sanctuary, we need magic stones. We need to expand the sanctuary! We need more magic stones!”

As the man continued his calm explanation, the cheers grew louder.

In contrast, Helkarton squinted his eyes.

If you make someone who mines a lot of magic stones the president of the society, doesn’t that mean that even if he becomes the president, he will only be able to mine magic stones?

“The temporary president doesn’t look very happy.”

“no!”

Helkarten laughed desperately at the man’s question.

At that time, there was a guy running desperately alone.

“I will be the next president!”

It was corton.

Starting with him, the others also ran.

Helkarten had no choice but to run.

Theodore looked at the Archduke.

The Archduke, as always, sat quietly.

The person sitting inside began reporting.

“A report has come in that the 6th Battalion was attacked by a group of monsters and three watchtowers were taken.”

“A report has come in that a demon has appeared in the territory of the Third Battalion, and a village has disappeared.”

As usual, it was a series of frustrating reports.

at that time-.

“The 5th Battalion has raised additional taxes. Captain Mark of the 5th Battalion reported that it was thanks to Special Forces Captain Galahad.”

Instead of reducing the money, you increased it.

Theodore was slightly impressed by the name ‘Galahad’.

It’s a name that’s been coming up often these days.

Whenever Galahad was mentioned, the results were always good.

Even though they didn’t say it out loud, it was the staff’s favorite name.

“A report has come in that a mid-level demon hiding in the 1st Battalion’s border area has been found and eliminated. Captain Adrianna reported that it was thanks to the mana detection method Captain Galahad had taught her.”

It was Galahad again.

The Archduke’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

The next report followed.

“I have a report that the Black Magic Society attacked the 7th Battalion, but was repelled.”

If it was the 7th Battalion, it was a place where the magic realm was open. If the place where the magic realm was open was taken over, the 7th Battalion itself could have become a den of enemies.

It was a big deal to stop him.

but-.

“I have a report that Captain Galahad has stopped it.”

It was Galahad again.

From the 5th and 1st Battalions to the 7th Battalion. Theodore squinted at the continuous reports.

Even in the North, there wasn’t that much work.

‘It’s not like I’m making any balls······.’

How could that be? – Theodore shook his head.

In the silence, everyone watched the Grand Duke’s expression.

“He’s a useful guy.”

The Archduke spoke softly.

At that moment, a loud voice was heard outside.

“It’s a messenger-!”

‘Here you go again.’

The Archduke still had an indifferent expression on his face.

Theodore stepped forward as a messenger to the Archduke.

“Are you the princess?”

“Yes that’s right.”

“Leave it over there.”

“This is a message from the royal family······.”

In the place Theodore pointed, there was a bundle of letters bearing the imperial emblem. The messenger’s face darkened as he saw him.

‘What on earth is it about-.’

“···Still, it is a message from the royal family!”

The messenger raised his voice urgently.

Raising your voice in front of His Highness the Grand Duke-.

‘You’re seriously crazy.’

At that moment, the Archduke woke up.

Theodore bowed his head urgently.

The messenger was already in a prostration state.

A heavy silence continued for a moment, making it difficult to breathe.

Soon the Archduke’s mouth opened.

“Send a reply.”

Theodore hurriedly unfolded the paper.

He dipped his pen into the ink and bowed his head.

After a moment of silence-.

The Archduke raised the corners of his mouth fiercely.

“I accept the duel.”
