Episode 32. Hidden thing
“You are sending a child who is not even registered! “This is a deception!”
“that’s right! “How can you stab me in the back like this!”
Ian sat back and watched the elders vent. It seemed like he couldn’t believe that he had been treated like this in an official setting called peacemaking.
“I emphasize once again, I am my father’s child. That part is clear.”
“Then who is your biological mother?”
“well.”
Ian smiled bitterly at Kakantir’s question. It was an unspoken answer for you to interpret on your own. The situation has already gotten worse. There was no need to mention that he was from a brothel. It wasn’t anything important.
“I want to break your neck right now.”
“But Chief, you are the leader of the Cheonryeo tribe. “I’m sure you will make a wise decision.”
Kakanthir growled with an absurd laugh. Since he had declared that he would treat Ian as a guest of the empire, he could not kill him like this. This was a matter of belief.
‘But can you play Bratz? no. Since we know that the army is coming down from the center, this is also reckless.’
“you.”
Kakantir was astonished as he rolled up a leaf and chewed it. It’s been a long time since the title “Gyeong” was left out of people’s mouths. I don’t know if it was intentional or not. In any case, the fact that Ian’s head was still attached was proof that he was respected.
“It keeps fluttering. “Is there anything more to say?”
“If there is something the Chief wants, it will be there.”
The whispering of the elders behind me became louder. Ian smiled brightly and continued.
“iced coffee. You must be there. More specifically, what and how things will work out.”
“I hope it’s interesting. Enough to clear my noisy head at once.”
Karkantir’s gaze was persistently aimed at the nape of Ian’s neck. It seems like he’s having a hard time suppressing his impulses.
“Let me make an assumption. If I become the Lord of Bratz with the help of the Cheonryeo tribe, I will make Bratz the best territory in Bariel.”
“Why?”
“Because that’s the only thing that can support me, a person from the outskirts.”
“so?”
“Once we have built up enough strength, we will go to the center, to be exact, to the imperial palace.”
Karkanthir’s brown eyes sparkled. What is this little thing saying now? Are you going to the center? This means willingly entering the jaws of the empire.
Regardless of what to do, is it because you don’t know how the territory falls when the lord is away? It either festers and explodes due to corruption from within, or is destroyed by invasion from outside.
“All of this is why I crossed the desert without running away, even though I had not registered. Khakantir. “We need to change now.”
True alliance and peace.
It was not a relationship that simply exchanged trade goods with each other and was bound by numbers and letters. An opponent to whom the lord can give his back. It also meant that the Cheonryeo people would be viewed as allies rather than barbarians on the border.
“I don’t know if it’s interesting. “The random thoughts have definitely disappeared.”
“Fortunately, the.”
When Kakantir rolls up the tree leaves again and chews them. Ner Sarn raised his hand.
“Sir Ian. “There is one thing I would like to point out.”
“Please tell me.”
“Will the Derga have time when the central forces arrive? “Time to send a message.”
wow. Ian felt like applauding. Khakantir. You have a pretty good person by your side. As expected of a chieftain, his depth of thought was considerable. She mentioned something no one had thought of.
“Maybe so. Because the investigation must proceed. That period is roughly 15 days. In fact, the central government is convinced and comes down.”
“Then it’s even more of a problem.”
“Nersarn. what?”
Kakantir and other elders could not guess what it meant.
“A cornered rat bites a cat. If there is no chance to escape, all that remains for Derga is beheading. That too is extinction. There is room to raise an army and fight back. and… … .”
“I will also ask the Cheonryeo tribe for help.”
Because they were allies who signed a peace agreement just a few days ago. Kakan Tir nodded his head as if he had finally realized.
“We cannot say no.”
“That’s right. “Especially right after the reconciliation.”
It was an action that should not have been done politically prior to belief. This is because breaking the peace friendship without justification would have been like declaring the Cheonryeo people themselves to be barbarians.
This may provide an excuse for the empire later. Kakan was displeased with this situation. One way or another, isn’t it like playing into the hands of the empire?
“Reconciliation is the problem. Our position has become awkward because of the peace friendship, so we need to resolve this first. “Is there any way to redeem it?”
Nersarn shook his head.
“It’s not easy.”
“why? They tricked us. “I sent away a child who wasn’t even registered.”
“Kakan, although he has not been registered, Ian is the son of Derga.”
“That’s right. “That is a correct argument.”
Ian agreed with Nersarn’s words.
“Furthermore, my father revealed that I was his illegitimate son before we made peace. Also, they won’t know that I colluded with the central government to delay registering, so even if we raise an objection, it will be useless.”
“It’s as if he’s urging me to kill him. “Keep talking.”
“I have a way.”
The hall became quiet at Ian’s declaration. Kakan Tir also closed his mouth and waited for his next words.
“All history is built on justification. And all justifications come from people. “I will make it for you.”
“What do you mean?”
“It’s a reason to break the peace friendship. Also, a reason to refuse when Derga asks for help.”
And Ian picked up the tree leaf lying on the edge of the table. The look in his eyes that said this was the answer was vivid.
“My father gave me secret instructions. “When I return to Brač for my birthday next year, I want you to smuggle some tree leaves.”
“oh my god. haha!”
Kakantyr burst out laughing at Ian’s quick answer. He said he made up his mind even before crossing the desert, and it seems that he wasn’t lying.
“No one else but the lord ordered the smuggling. And that too through tree leaves, which are absolutely prohibited items, and the object of reconciliation, a symbol of peace. “Isn’t this enough?”
“yes. The back of my head doesn’t feel good even if I change it. There is more than enough. “What’s the evidence?”

“Unfortunately, there is nothing immediately visible. However, this can also be confirmed through Yun Chen.”
If this is the case, you can protest strongly by including registration. protest? No. Even if you just unilaterally destroy it, the other party will have nothing to say.
“Of course, I didn’t mean to do that.”
“What you said today is something I will swear to God, not just Master Yunchen.”
“I will, if you wish.”
“I’m going crazy. What about Bratz… … .”
I thought Derga would only have stupid people like Chell. The handwritten letter Ian sent further strengthened my confidence.
But look at the current atmosphere. Isn’t a blond-haired, green-eyed foreigner leading the leaders of Cheonryeo?
“… Is that all you want? A statement that the Cheonryeo tribe supports you.”
“That’s enough. “I will handle the rest.”
It was a flawless transaction no matter what. If you think about it, it could be said to be slightly advantageous. In the worst case, Ian will lose his life, but the Cheonryeo tribe will just have to return to the desert. If the center invades, just fight with the desert on your back as usual.
He added one last time, tapping the table.
“We have no intention of shedding blood for you.”
“I don’t want it either.”
“Aren’t you afraid of death?”
“Not at all.”
Ian’s curious attitude. Kakanthir asked out of sheer curiosity. Although he was quite young, his spirit surpassed that of the Cheonryeo warriors.
“I died once and woke up.”
“What a wonderful determination.”
It wasn’t a metaphor, but Kakantyr didn’t notice. Well, how can I know? Ian is living a second life, which means he is receiving God’s protection.
Moreover, there were still cards hidden.
That is, he is a magic operator.
“I leave down on paper exactly what the Cheonryeo tribe wants, including tracking down Silask.”
“I have a lot of time. It will be a pleasure to tune it.”
Ian smiled brightly and expressed his gratitude. Then she looked back at the council member who was still standing there blankly observing the situation.
“Aren’t you about a month?”
“yes? iced coffee! Yes. going! “I have to go!”
The congressman was startled and stood up holding the flower pot. The plan was to feed only one root first and see the effect. It’s not too late to decide later how to use the remaining money.
Will you cultivate it for future generations, or will you offer it to Yun Chen after seeing its improved condition?
“Then I’ll leave too.”
Ian also walked through the tent entrance. Kakanthir asked half-expectingly, catching him. Before I knew it, the harsh tone of speech had faded away.
“Sir Ian. “Is trying to go to the center related to the emperor’s spirit?”
From Kakan’s point of view, this child is truly curious. Her father is a noble from the frontier, but her spirit is connected to the imperial palace? She obviously doesn’t talk about her mother, so she seems to have a clue there. Ian realized he wasn’t expecting an answer, so he just laughed.
When I came outside, the whole family was gathered together and pricking their ears.
“It’s out!”
“I heard a loud noise inside, but he wasn’t dead.”
“Oooh. “It’s real.”
As Ian and Beric took a step closer, the crowd parted like the Red Sea. Among them, I saw a familiar face. It was a number. Ian approached her and asked for her help.
“number.”
“uh? “Uh-huh.”
“If you have some time left, would you please help us?”
“which… … ?”
Eyes shaking in embarrassment. But soon, Ian’s words made me shine like a star.
“Berwick training.”
* * *
“idiot! maggot!”
“Won’t you shut up?”
“Even desert ants are faster than you!”
“Wow, that! “I know if you get caught, your nose will really bleed!”
Sigh-!
Ian ate fruit in the shade and watched the sandstorm. It was a trace created by Beric’s kicks and Sue’s gestures. We’ve been running in the scorching sun for two hours already, and neither of us show any signs of getting tired.
“Berrick! are you okay?”
“what?”
“… done.”
“Do not talk to me! “Fuck you!”
Wow!
It’s definitely quick to learn and accept. It looks like they have adapted to the heat after a few days. Moreover, because of the environment, the sand made the training intensity even stronger.
“Berrick. “You are truly amazing.”
“It’s because my feet keep falling off!”
“aha? okay? I’m not missing? “If you gain a lot of leg fat, are you the only one who will lose it?”
“These are muscles! “X!”
“yes yes. “I guess so.”
Hiss! Whoosh!
While the two continued to exchange sums, Ian munched on the sweet, cool fruit. He planned to slowly and painstakingly recruit the Cheonryeo tribe, but the situation was organized very easily and quickly thanks to Silask.
Until he returns to Brac, all he has to do is enjoy the great desert. ah! How long has it been since you can rest to your heart’s content? It makes me wonder if this is the true gift from God.
“Ian.”
At that time, someone from the clan approached Ian. He was carrying new wine and Ian’s flower pot on a tray.
“Yun Chen has finally opened his eyes.”
“oh. is it?”
Yun Chen fainted as soon as he greeted Ian. I poured a little bit of Silasque decoction into my mouth, and the improvement was slow but clear. Her heart rate stabilized, her seizures disappeared, and her complexion brightened.
“Thank goodness.”
“… thank you.”
An unknown family member carefully left a thank you note. The atmosphere of the village was clearly visible. They say go away to the festival. Ian responded by simply sipping his glass.
“Well, they say they will hold a banquet to officially welcome Ian as soon as possible.”
“okay? “Even now, it’s no different from a banquet.”
“… Anyway, thank you very much. “Everyone is grateful to Ian.”
“It was nothing.”
“Oops. And it was discovered after moving the entire soil.”
He put the flower pot down. What was inside the empty flower pot was none other than a necklace. A silver string with amber gems.
“It’s Ian’s, right? “Are you hiding it?”
