Solo Swordmaster

#658. country of revolution.

“…”

Life is a gist.

In life, all sorts of things happen.

Even though he is a first-class citizen who can live comfortably, he became a researcher and worked secretly as a revolutionary army until he was imprisoned in Gulag through the revolutionary government.

Bachemensky, who lived a rather eventful life, was well aware of that fact.

Yet at this moment.

He couldn’t help but tremble.

It was because the scene that was unfolding before him was so strange and bewildering.

But that’s for a while.

After allaying his embarrassment with the mental training he had accumulated in Gulag, he calmly lowered his head.

“It’s been a while, Sister Elshar.”

“hi!”

“That’s right. Long time no see.”

“…”

…No matter how much it was, I had no choice but to stop in this situation where I greeted one person and the answer came back from both at the same time.

“sorry. I made the wrong greeting.”

For a moment, it was hardened unintentionally.

Finally, after a bitter smile.

Bachemensky, who apologized politely, greeted him again.

“Nice to meet you, Miss Ainsha.”

One time for the world’s best singer with an expressionless face in sky-high clothes.

and next to it.

Silver hair instead of white hair.

The traditional clothes and crown of the cavalry people.

The only difference is that the curve is much more convex.

Other than that, except for the mischievous smile, to a famous girl with a completely different meaning to Ainsha, who looks exactly like Ainsha.

“…and the Great Khan.”

Was that subtle expression interesting?

Catherine giggled.

“Why are you so formal? While we even had a revolution together.”

“It was the Elshar sisters who were with us at that time, not Catherine the Great.”

“What’s wrong with me saying that I caused a commotion by raising the New Revolutionary Army on the way?”

“It’s not really like that. The collapse of the revolutionary government would have happened anyway, even if the Elshar sisters had not stepped forward.”

“okay?”

Rather, thanks to her raising up the New Revolutionary Army, he was able to stop the revolutionary government before it further ruined the country.

Let’s express gratitude, looking at Yekathrice who is insignificant.

Bachemensky smiled bitterly.

And I thought.

They said they were too stupid.

Anyone can see that it is so obvious.

There were actually two Elshar.

It was also replaced along the way.

Without realizing that the two of them are the best singer in the world and the great khan of their own country.

He only believed in the myth that there were three similar people in the world, started a revolution with her, and even took over the work of the revolutionary government.

It was said that he was blinded by his longing for revolution, but it was a comedy.

But that’s a thing of the past.

What matters is the present.

Bachemensky, who had calmed down his bitter heart, calmly opened his mouth.

“I heard the circumstances from the swordsman. You need my help in finding your legacy.”

“huh. If you cooperate obediently, your sentence will be reduced.”

“There is no need for a commutation. Just let me help.”

“I’m serious?”

It seems a bit surprising.

Looking at her tilting her head.

Limon, who was crossing his arms behind him, spoke calmly.

“You can believe it. I’ll guarantee you’re sincere.”

“Huh… that’s a bit unexpected. To say that you would not become a dog of the government and that you voluntarily entered the Gulag and would cooperate so obediently.”

“I must pay for my crimes, but I must prevent the misuse of your legacy.”

Bachemensky’s face hardened.

Even if the direction was wrong, Sergei was the one who was moving for the cause of the Russian Khanate.

That’s why he became the spiritual leader of the revolutionary army.

Even Sergei caused a cataclysm that eventually resurrected the demon.

The one who has no faith whatsoever.

Or what if a villain gets his legacy?

It was only natural for Vachemensky, who was well aware of what kind of catastrophe was about to happen, to promise full cooperation.

“…I don’t know how helpful I will be in a situation where your legacy has already flowed out of the country.”

The problem is twofold.

Where is his legacy?

Even Bachemensky had no idea.

In the first place, Sergei was a person who secretly acted as the leader of the Revolutionary Army.

In particular, the fact that he accidentally discovered the legacy of the Dark Dawn and became a warlock is a secret that even the officers of the same Revolutionary Army did not know.

It would have been rather strange if anyone knew where the legacy was hidden.

If I had known that, I would have told you before I was locked up in the Gulag.

“So you’re saying it won’t help at all?”

“It’s disappointing. I lost my expectation.”

Still, as much as I expected that Sergei’s aide, Bachemensky, might know something.

Seeing the two girls with very similar faces showing blatant grumbling and expressionless regret, Limon laughed.

“Don’t be too hard on yourself. Still, there is no good news.”

“What good news?”

“The revolutionary older brother said that the Dark Wizard did not convey all his knowledge to the Liberation Brigade.”

“Yes, that’s for sure.”

To oppose the silver dragon clan.

Sergei joined hands with the Liberation Brigade and gave them knowledge of black magic in exchange for various support.

But he was a revolutionary before he was a warlock.

He wasn’t stupid enough to foresee what would happen if an organization as dangerous as the Liberation Brigade took possession of the legacy of the Dark Dawn.

So he’s the most important thing.

In other words, only the core knowledge and legacy of the Demon God would have been thoroughly hidden.

Looking at Bachemensky’s assertion.

Yekathrice made a strange expression.

“You mean the World Federation hasn’t gotten their hands on the legacy of the Dark Dawn yet?”

“In that case, the legacy of the Dark Dawn could not have been auctioned off. Those who received the contract from the World Federation wouldn’t have even aimed at it.”

Limon pointed out calmly.

Just like the silver dragon clan did.

The Liberation Brigade must have followed Sergei’s trail.

Nevertheless, the fact that the black magic book was found at the Midas auction house meant two things.

One is that both sides have yet to secure the legacy of the Dark Dawn.

And the other was the fact that even in the World Federation, it was probably only the specters of the Liberation Brigade that were chasing it.

“But Oppa, if you put it the other way around, isn’t it certain that there is a child aiming for the legacy of the Dark Dawn?”

“Yes, it even means they are one step ahead of us.”

“That is difficult.”

Ainsha said bluntly.

Although magic is not omnipotent, it is a power close to omnipotence.

In particular, the magic of demons, the essence of black magic, can even cause miracles close to omnipotence if the cost is sufficient.

What if it falls into the hands of the World Federation?

Whether the demon descends again.

Whether it’s strengthening the sword master’s spell.

I don’t know what other unimaginable things will happen.

Limon frowned at the words of Ainsha, who pointed out as a priest of the Shinseng League.

Of course, if the legacy of the Dark Dawn is taken away while we have only just caught the clue, the possibility of unraveling the spell of the Sword Master is lower.

Because I could have lost the advantage I barely had and turned it around.

“The good news is that this is Russia.”

“Why?”

“Even if we’re a little behind, we’re better off finding the legacy of the Dark Dawn than the World Alliance guys, right?”

“That’s right.”

Russia is the territory of the Silver Dragon clan.

Even though there was a hindrance in the northern frozen land, it was just annoying.

If the opponent was only a part of the World Federation, not the entire World Federation, it would be possible to gain an advantage in tracking based on overwhelming information power.

To Limon’s sober point.

Catherine grinned.

Ainsha reluctantly agreed.

But only one, Bachemensky, had a rather dark expression.

“It may not be that advantageous. Maybe worse.”

“…I want to know what you mean.”

“That’s…”

Why?

Seeing Bachemensky blurting his horse’s tail, Yekathrice narrowed her eyes.

“Huh, did you change your mind when you said you were actively cooperating with us?”

“Not like that.”

“Then what are you hiding?”

Bachemensky sighed.

It was because I realized that if I hesitated further, I would only arouse unnecessary suspicion.

So he finally opened his mouth heavily.

“…there are those who I suspect have already found the legacy of the Dark Dawn.”

“You know who is behind the seller who sold the legacy of the Dark Dawn and died in an accident?”

“Not sure. There are only possibilities.”

“What is that possibility?”

Catherine with a curious face.

The expressionless Ainsha.

Limon with folded arms.

Bachemensky, who could not bear to look at them, closed his eyes and said.

“The remnants of the Revolutionary Army.”

* * *

A few months ago.

after the fall of the revolutionary government.

Support for the revolution in the Russian Khanate has fallen to rock bottom.

This is because after the revolution succeeded, security deteriorated and life became more difficult, and even looting by the revolutionary army took place.

The demon god’s resurrection dealt a decisive blow to that.

Thanks to that, the current Russian Khanate’s approval rating for the imperial family is the highest ever.

Even his lover would take the initiative to report the revolution to Okrana if he talked about it, even as a joke.

Revolution and Nabal.

Because everyone felt keenly that without the rule of the Silver Dragon clan, especially Yekatrice, it would be difficult to make a living right away.

But who did.

Faith is an unquenchable fire.

As much as it was originally operated as a point organization.

In addition to the revolutionary government centered on Moscow, there were still many revolutionary armies in each city.

And among them, even though they failed…

or rather, there were those who burned more desire for revolution because of that.

Anyway, it is an undeniable fact that Sergei drove out the silver dragon clan and established a revolutionary government.

The Great Khan did not waste the treasury.

without cowardly running away.

If you fought the Revolutionary Army head-on.

The groundless belief that his revolution would have been successful further fueled their belief in the revolution.

Some even thought

If only it hadn’t been for the swordsman’s interference.

The demon summoned by Sergei would have wiped out the silver dragon clan and the Russian army and created a true paradise on earth, the Soviet Union.

under that belief.

Rather, they dreamed of a more radical revolution.

It was thanks to them that Bachemensky learned about them.

They knew how to contact Bachemensky, who was Sergei’s aide and a high-ranking member of the revolutionary government.

The silver dragon clan is busy with all sorts of other things, taking advantage of the gap.

Or pass on a coded note.

Or use other prisoners.

Even doing interviews.

Of course, Bachemensky did not respond to their contact.

Because I knew how many people suffered a hasty revolution.

But thanks to that, I was able to know something about them.

“They already called themselves counter-revolutionaries.”

“counterrevolution?”

“In the sense that any means against the world can be used to bring about a revolution.”

“…”

And that means maybe…

no, nine out of ten likely included black magic or the legacy of the Dark Dawn.

Watching Bachemensky lament.

After a long silence.

Limon sighed.

“Russia is like a country of revolution that will be plagued.”
