And at some point, scattering pieces of iron.
Bark’s hand, which suddenly accelerated, shattered Thane’s sword.
“Uh-huh…!”
Thein, in shock, let out a moan of pain and knelt down.
Looking down at him like that, Bark grinned.
Then people came. Scarlett and the elders came right out of the commotion downstairs.
“········Thane!”
Scarlett screamed with a desperate face and ran. He even stared at Vallia as if to kill him.
“What is this now…!”
“Ah, don’t get me wrong. The person who applied for a duel first was the craftsman’s younger brother.”
Tane avoided Scarlett’s gaze and bowed her head with a horribly distorted expression. Realizing the situation, she salivated.
“··········· In return, I apologize for my brother’s disrespect. It seems that victory or defeat has already occurred, so please stop the duel.”
Bark raised the corners of his lips wickedly at him.
“If I’m the first to jump on my own, at least I’ll have to finish it, wouldn’t it make sense?”
Whoops!
He inserted the blade into the arm of Thane, who was lying on the floor.
“Aww…!”
At the sight, Scarlett and the elders’ faces turned white.
“It seems that the younger brother of the studio can’t control his overflowing blood, so we should give him a chance to learn.”
“Come on, wait… stop!”
“tt, I didn’t mean to kill you, so what are you so surprised about. There are a lot of high-quality potions in the workshop, so treatment shouldn’t be a problem.”
As Bark said so, he swung the blade stuck in his arm to and fro. Thane couldn’t stand it and let out a scream of pain.
“Stop! Stop it now!”
Scarlett exclaimed as if begging, completely lost in composure.
Bark chuckled as if he was happy.
“Haha! You’re desperate. Get down on your knees and beg a little more earnestly, Master of the Workshop.
That was then.
Rumble!
Suddenly the entrance to the hall opened and a series of knights appeared.
Everyone’s attention was drawn to their appearance.
Vallia’s eyes widened.
He, who had been watching the situation with a relaxed smile until recently, murmured with a look of perplexity.
“······The Iron-Blood Knights?”
The Iron-Blood Knights under the direct control of the 7th Monarch Castle.
Valia could not understand why the most elite forces of the monarch castle, which did not move unless it was a serious matter, suddenly appeared here.
Scarlett and the elders also looked at them with bewildered expressions, and Bark slowly pulled out the sword embedded in Thane’s arm.
The blond man who was at the forefront of the knights looked around and then approached the center of the hall and opened his mouth.
“Valia, the owner of the top of Velia.”
“············”.
“Follow me right now. I don’t have the right to deny it. I won’t take any questions.”
And this time he turns his head to Scarlett and speaks in a much more respectful tone.
“Are you Scarlet-sama, the owner of Alkimas Workshop?”
“…Yes, but.”
“I hope you will also accompany me. The Great One is looking for you.”
“······································································!
Everyone’s face filled with astonishment.
If the knight of the monarchy could be described as a great person, there was no one but one.
Meanwhile, Bark asked with a frown.
“Are you saying you’re moving to the Monarchy? At least the reason why you’re suddenly taking your older brother….”
Whoa!
Bark’s words could not be continued.
This is because the knight who drew his sword in an instant without warning blew a sword at him.
Bark also hurriedly drew his sword and defended it, but his blade was shattered.
“Kuhhh…!”
Bark knelt down, pouring blood from his chest split diagonally.
The knight looked down at him coldly and pulled out his sword.
“I would have said that I would not take questions. Do you dare question the monarch’s commandment?”
Alkimas Workshop (4)
Bark grabbed the bloody chest with his trembling hands.
Vallia, who had been watching the return situation, barely regained her composure and opened her mouth.
“…I apologize for my disrespect, so have mercy on me, Sir Akin.”
It wasn’t strange if anyone had their necks blown if they didn’t bow down.
No matter how powerful the object of great influence on the entire northern part of the country, Valeria had no meaning in front of the monarchy’s power.
What’s more, the knight who slashed Bark at once is Arkin Cradel, the deputy commander of the Iron Blood Knights.
From the moment a giant this size appeared in person, he had a gut feeling that something unusual had usually happened, but the words that came out of his mouth were beyond imagination.
‘It’s the monarch’s order, why…’
Why is it that the newly crowned 7th Lord is looking for himself and Scarlet’s Workshop? Didn’t you even get to the city just yesterday?
What I couldn’t understand was the attitude of the vice-captain.
It’s because he’s overbearing here, but he’s polite to Scarlett.
While she was confused, she couldn’t help but sense an ominous feeling that something was firmly wrong.
The deputy commander, who had collected the sword, approached Scarlett’s side and stood there, without even paying attention to the fallen Bark.
“Then I’ll go right away.”
Scarlett was also embarrassed by the appearance of an escort, so she looked back at Thein and the elders.
“Hey, why are you taking Ga-ju?”
An elder opened his mouth without realizing it, and then closed it again in surprise.
I had no choice but to do it because Bark had just said a word of protest and it was like that.
But this time the deputy chief answered in a polite voice.
“Don’t worry. It’s probably not a bad thing, since the monarch personally told me to bring the master of the workshop as an example.”
“············”.
The elders had no choice but to persuade him.
They also had no idea why the 7th lord was looking for the king, but they couldn’t block the knights either.
“No, no.”
Tane grabbed his arm and squatted to his feet.
Scarlett saw it and was about to talk to the vice-captain, but another elder stepped forward and said:
“Governor, don’t worry and go. Confucius Thein’s arm will be treated immediately…”
She hesitated and then nodded.
The knights were attached to both sides of Scarlett, and the knights also approached Vallia.
Vallia sighed a little and looked back at Bark. He staggered and said to him.
“You are healing your wounds.”
So the two men were led by the knights and went straight to the Monarchy.
***
After passing through the main gate of the castle, Scarlett looked around with a nervous expression.
The appearance of the knights standing on the border in various places of the castle felt like a veil, and it was also unfamiliar.
Because she, who is only an outsider, had never been able to enter the interior of the monarchy like this before.
When we reached the huge building in the center, there was an old butler waiting at the entrance.
He nodded his head to greet Scarlett.
“My name is Ploto, the butler. The monarch is waiting for you, so I’ll take you right away.”
Then, she turned her gaze and glanced at Valia for a moment, and started walking in front of her.
After passing the wide and long hallway and stairs, we arrived at the highest floor of the building.
When I arrived at the concourse on the top floor, I saw a man sitting on a chair looking at something and a waitress standing behind him.
“···········?”
Seeing the scene, Scarlett’s face instantly filled with doubt and bewilderment.
I had no choice but to do so. Because the faces of the two were familiar.
An unknown customer who visited the workshop in the morning to purchase a Scarlet Potion and paid for 3 platinum coins.
But what are they doing here…
“Lord.”
Plotto said so and nodded his head.
Scarlett also looked at the man with a blank expression.
Suddenly, the story I had with Tane flashed through my mind. The conversation we had like a joke about the newly crowned 7th lords.
“As ordered, I have brought you Scarlet’s Workshop and Valia’s Sangju.”
Putting what he was holding in his hand, he slowly turned his head toward this side and opened his mouth as he looked at Scarlet.
“I’ll see you again soon, Master of the Workshop.”
Only then did Scarlett understand the whole situation, and after a moment of silence, he bowed his head belatedly.
“It is an honor to meet the 7 Lords.”
He turned his gaze to her side this time.
Vallia did not dare to make eye contact and bowed her head in a hurry to greet her.
“It is the honor of a lifetime to meet the 7 Lords.”
“What do you think is the reason I called you?”
A voice rang out and stopped talking.
At that indifferent and cold voice, Velia felt her heart freeze.
He, too, has noticed to some extent now. Why did the 7th lord summon him and Scarlett?
Unlike this one, the knights who treated her with respect, and the current reaction as if they already knew each other…
Vallia desperately shook her head, feeling a sense of crisis and fear that would never happen again in her life. what is the best answer
Soon, Valia fell to her knees and said.
“I have sinned to death, my lord.”
For a moment, the hall became quiet.
Vallia bowed her head on the floor, waiting for an answer to come back.
After a while, the 7th lord spoke again.
“what?”
“I coveted the visions and labor of the Alchimas Workshop, and carried out various dirty operations in the Workshop. They blocked the distribution of materials, persuaded the suppliers of the Workshop one by one, and threatened the master and elders of the Workshop as it is today.”
Vallia confessed her sins like flowing water.
He started out empty-handed with nothing but a sense of sensibility and money, and built the current target group.
This was the best way to survive here, no matter how much I thought about it. After all, the monarch knows everything.
Scarlett, who was standing next to him, looked down at him like he was a little absurd.
The 7th lord asked her this time.
“That’s right, Master of the Workshop.”
“Oh, yes….”
“What do you want on top?”
Scarlett and Vallia’s eyes met.
Vallia looked up at her with the most desperate eyes and said.
“Owner of the workshop, please forgive me. I will formally apologize for everything I have done so far, and I will make full compensation for it as you wish. And I will swear that I will no longer be blinded by greed and do dirty work in the workshop.”
Scarlett looked up at him pleading with a complicated expression on her face.
Then he sighed a little and nodded his head.
“······· As soon as I understand.”
The situation was sudden and confusing for her, too. What else can I say to answer here?
Although Sang-joo was so contemptuous that his teeth trembled, he didn’t want to even force him to give up his neck.
With that, the story ended abruptly, and the 7th Lord looked down at Vallia and said:
“I’ll never have to call you again.”
“············”.
“Stop going.”
Balia got up from her seat trembling, bowed her head, and followed Plotto out of the hall with a tired face.
Scarlett, who was left alone, stood still with a puzzled expression on her face.
The 7th lord looked at her like that and said,
“You’re probably wondering why I’m helping the workshop.”
“······Yes that’s right.”
The top issue, which had been so close to scoring, was solved in an instant with a word from the monarch. To be honest, it felt a bit unrealistic.
Thankfully, Scarlett had no idea what the hell he was trying to do with this help.
“The reason is simple. Your qualities as an alchemist stood out.”
“···········?”
“The potion crafted with Vision is very good. I hope that you will put more effort into your research and make those qualities bloom more than you do now. That’s why you’ve solved the annoying problems around you.”
Scarlett had a face that didn’t make sense to him.
“So, what the monarch is saying is that he did not ask for anything from me and did him favorably because he only bought his abilities high?”
“okay.”
“············”.
“If it doesn’t make sense, think of it as a debt. Maybe one day I will need your power. You can think of it as a help for that.”
To Scarlett, those words sounded even more strange.
How could a monarch ever need the help of an alchemist like himself?
“If you don’t have any more questions, let’s go.”
Scarlett remained silent for a moment at the blessing, then lowered her head deeply.
“It’s really been a blessing to me. I’ll do my best to be willing to help you if the time comes when the Lord needs my power, even as he intended.”
