  Chapter 320: Once Again {TL: By Creed} After that… We were treated to a warm and generous welcome. There was plenty of food and delicious drinks. And with the townspeople joining in, everyone enjoyed a big feast together. The idea of having the townspeople join us was actually Aisha’s suggestion. She wanted everyone to have fun together… It was quite an unexpected idea, but in truth, it turned out to be extremely effective. Because of what the former lord had done, the town was now filled with suspicion and dissatisfaction toward the Hildis family. Although the problem had been resolved when Albert defeated the former lord, people couldn’t easily shake the doubt that his son might do the same. So, the banquet. By enjoying themselves together, the townspeople were able to ease their doubts about Albert, at least to some extent. It also helped relieve their stress and anxiety—making it a brilliant plan with triple the benefits. To think of something like this… as e...

  Chapter 319 Allies {TL: By Creed} “Fate!!!” “Whoa—” The moment I reunited with Sofia , she suddenly hugged me. She squeezed me tightly, with all her strength. “Thank goodness you’re safe! You’re not hurt, are you? Nothing hurts? You’re not bleeding anywhere, right?” Those all mean the same thing. We were only apart for a short while, but… It seems I made her worry a lot. Hmm, she really is overprotective. But that just proves how much she cares about me. Thinking that way doesn’t feel bad at all—no, it actually makes me happy. “Sofia, I’m fine.” Being hugged like that made things… rather problematic, what with Sofia’s chest pressing against me, so I hurriedly pulled away. For some reason, Sofia looked disappointed. “Daddy!” “On!” Taking turns, Aisha jumped into my arms. Snow ran over too, rubbing her face against my body. “Sorry for making you both worry.” “Uu—” “But it’s okay now. See? I’m perfectly fine.” “Yeah.” Aisha’s tail swayed restlessly. She must h...

  Chapter 318: Detention {TL: By Creed} "……" A lone figure stood some distance away from Lenoglade. Without doing anything in particular, he simply stared intently at the far-off city. Before long, the figure—Riken—let out a sigh. "Good grief… I failed." He had made contact with Guld, whispered sweet words into his ear, and handed over the demonic sword. He had also provided some financial support. Riken… or rather, the Alliance of Dawn, never intended to actually do anything to Lenoglade. They merely used it as a tool to slow down Fate and the others. Though still immature, Fate continued to grow at a terrifying pace. And Sofia, who had reached the ultimate realm of Sword Saint and wielded the Holy Sword. The two of them were formidable enemies. They would become a major threat to the Alliance of Dawn. That was precisely why he had used Guld to stall them, but… "To think he’d be defeated so easily." Riken sighed once more. The demonic swor...

  Chapter 317: Cleaning Up {TL: By Creed} Guld collapsed. He was completely unconscious, showing no sign of getting back up. “...Phew.” I never expected him to be carrying a magic sword, so that caught me off guard for a moment. Still, just having it didn’t mean much—Guld’s swordsmanship itself wasn’t all that impressive. That’s why I was able to deal with him on my own. Before, I couldn’t have done it without Sofia, but… Maybe I’ve grown a little? “Are you okay?” I rushed over to Albert and held out my hand. Guld wouldn’t be waking up anytime soon, so I didn’t think there was any problem leaving him as he was. More than that, I was worried whether Albert had been hurt. “Yeah… I’m fine.” Taking my hand, Albert stood up. “I’ve probably got some bruises, but I don’t think anything’s broken.” “That’s a relief.” “Still…” Albert looked at Guld lying on the ground. “I’m shocked that my father possessed such power, but I’m even more surprised that you defeated him a...

  Chapter 316: The Sword that Slays Demons {TL: By Creed} Meteor Sword. As if embodying its name, the blade shimmered faintly with light. What is this…? This had never happened before, not even once… “You bastard—what did you do!?” Guld roared in fury and charged at me. His attacks grew fiercer than before, more violent, more relentless. But… Strange. I could see through every one of his strikes. This attack won’t hit. For this one, just step to the side. The answers kept rising in my mind, one after another. Could it be… the sword is lending me its power? A keepsake from Licorice’s friend. And a blade forged with Aisha’s strength, and my father’s very soul. Maybe… that’s why miracles like this can happen. “I won’t lose to you.” Once more, I raised the Meteor Sword. “Saying that only power is right—such a twisted belief… I won’t lose to someone who says such lonely, sorrowful things!” “You dare bark at me, brat!?” Guld did not hesitate. If anything, his...

  Chapter 315: Obey {TL: By Creed} “Now then, obey my power!” “!?” Guld kicked off the ground and charged straight at me. Fast. He moved as if wrapped in the wind—smooth, fluid, and yet so fast that the eye could barely follow. In an instant, he was right in front of me, swinging his demon sword. I caught the blow with the flat of the Meteor Sword… And immediately angled my blade, deflecting the edge aside. The moment his attack flowed past, I countered. I swung my sword, aiming for Guld’s exposed side as he became completely defenseless, and slammed my blade into him. Clang! “What—” I definitely struck him, but the sensation was dull, and my blade was repelled. He must be wearing chain mail or something similar underneath. It’s not like I hadn’t considered such a possibility… But armor so sturdy that even the Meteor Sword couldn’t cut through it was beyond my expectations. Wearing something like that should weigh him down considerably… Yet, Guld was still fas...

  Chapter 314: In Search of Power {TL: By Creed} Guld Hildis was, for better or worse, an utterly ordinary man. Born as the second son of the Hildis family, he was raised with a noble’s education. He also trained in swordsmanship, just in case. His ability was above average. He wasn’t a genius, but he possessed a fair amount of talent. That was all. He had no other outstanding gifts, nor any special abilities. He was a plain, ordinary man. However, Guld himself didn’t mind that. Just because he was ordinary, his parents never treated him unfairly—they loved him just as much as his gifted older brother. They were kind to him. Since his brother, who was ten years older, was set to inherit the family, Guld felt no particular pressure. He believed that one day he would simply assist his brother. The turning point came when Guld was ten years old. The brother who was meant to inherit the house died in an accident. There were no other children. Guld became the successor… ...
