Only I Have Two Towers Episode 116
Something Concerning
Jinhyeok rubbed his chin while observing Sofia’s group.
Olivia swallowed nervously.
If this had been a few hours ago, she would have shouted with a face full of wariness.
Telling him to get away from Sofia immediately.
But now, she couldn’t do that.
If she did, she would become a despicable bastard who repays kindness with enmity.
“Hmm!”
Jinhyeok nodded with a satisfied expression.
Charles was injured a bit, but his life wasn’t in danger.
He had saved them all without being too late.
“Sir Charles. Please apply this to your wound.”
He took out a small lotion container from his inventory.
“Vaseline…?”
The three people looked at Jinhyeok with bewildered faces.
They knew Vaseline was good lotion, but you don’t usually apply it to stab wounds.
“Ah, only the container is Vaseline, the contents are different. It should be very effective.”
Ellia, who crafted various items at the Star Forge whenever she had time.
This was a universal ointment she had newly developed.
“Thank you.”
“Wait a moment.”
Jinhyeok took out a towel and handed it to Charles.
“Bite down on this.”
“Excuse me?”
“Open your mouth and say ‘ah’.”
He did as instructed, though he was a bit puzzled.
Did he need to bite on a gag just to apply some ointment?
Olivia, who had cleaned her hands thoroughly, took some lotion and applied it to Charles’s wound.
At that moment.
“Mmph!!!”
Charles’s eyes became bloodshot as if they would burst.
“Ch-Sir Charles?!”
Startled, Olivia stepped back.
This was Charles, of all people.
A superhuman who wouldn’t even let out a small groan when pierced by a sword.
For such a person to be in this much pain.
Olivia and Sofia looked at Jinhyeok.
Is this really okay?
“Don’t worry. This is a completely normal reaction.”
There was a procedure that never failed when Ellia developed something new.
Checking for possible side effects through the immortal test subject Jinhyeok.
Having applied it to himself, he knew this medicine had no side effects. None, but it hurt like hell.
He had foamed at the mouth even when applying it to a slightly scratched wound back then.
‘Ah? I forgot to mention it would hurt.’
He had only made him bite the gag without conveying the most important thing.
He reflected that he should mention it beforehand next time and observed the area where the ointment was applied.
The torn wound was rapidly healing and the bleeding was stopping.
“…!!”
Sofia and Olivia’s eyes widened as they watched from the side.
An external wound ointment with such immediate effects.
It was performance they had never heard of or seen, making them doubt their eyes.
“Huff. Huff.”
Charles, who had been in pain, gradually regained his composure.
Jinhyeok smiled.
As expected of medicine made by Elia Posen, the star alchemist.
“Please try drinking this.”
He brewed tea he had received from Momo beforehand and handed it to the three people.
Sofia took a sip and let out a quiet breath.
Was it because the warm liquid relaxed her body?
She gradually began to accept the current situation.
“I don’t know how to express my gratitude.”
Death had approached right before her eyes.
More precisely, she should have died.
A desperate situation where no matter what she did, she couldn’t survive.
For just a brief moment, Sofia had even witnessed what’s called a life flashing before one’s eyes.
But she was alive.
With the appearance of the being called Yoo Jin-hyeok before her eyes, the situation she had considered fate was completely overturned in one blow.
“How did you know we were in danger?”
Sofia’s group hadn’t noticed when they got off the train either.
That the person who came to meet them wasn’t the real Edward.
But how did Jinhyeok, who was inside, perceive this crisis?
“Hmm, how should I explain this.”
Jinhyeok pointed to his head with his finger.
“Should I call it instinctive intuition? Something like detecting killing intent?”
The three people nodded with dazed expressions.
If someone else had said it, they would have tilted their heads in doubt, but the other party was none other than a Runner.
Since a Runner said so, they had no choice but to believe it.
Gulp.
Jinhyeok, who had actually spoken the words, broke out in cold sweat.
It was a lie.
He could only detect killing intent when it was moderately distant; he hadn’t even felt such a thing.
Nevertheless, the reason he got off the train was because of Seira.
-There’s something concerning.
Saying this, Seira had repeated the name Sophia Marcia Windsor once more.
Even until then, Jinhyeok had only tilted his head in confusion.
Because he didn’t know that Windsor was a surname used by the British royal family.
If someone interested in the British royal family had heard Windsor, they would have known immediately, but at least Jinhyeok wasn’t such a person.
When he was busy making a living, how could he know what surname the king of another country used?
As he heard later, Seira hadn’t known this fact either.
She had just said there was also one in the Knight Order.
A knight who used the Windsor surname.
-I have a request. I want to help that child.
When Seira said this much, what could he do?
He had to go help.
He had immediately jumped off the train.
To help Sofia, who might be in danger.
And now, at this moment when Sofia’s safety was secured.
He realized that Seira’s intuition hadn’t been wrong.
Ding!
Light entered the Quest window.
[You have cleared the Epic-grade Emergency Quest, ‘Save the Child of Windsor!’]
#
The British dynasty that has continued for many years. The name of the person who started this dynasty is Aman Leonhardt. Aman, who would later be called the Conqueror King, nearly lost his life as a child to barbarians who attacked the castle.
The one who saved Aman was none other than Berid Windsor.
Berid, who was an excellent knight, took in Aman who had lost his parents and was alone, teaching him swordsmanship. Based on this, Aman became known as the Conqueror King and became the first king to unify Britain.
Berid Windsor quietly left, saying he had finished what he needed to do.
Aman looked at the place where Berid had gone and made a vow.
He would never let his name be forgotten.
From that day, Aman changed his name to that of Berid, who had been both father and teacher to him, and thus the Windsor Dynasty began.
#
Along with the message writing out the epic story, a blurry hologram appeared.
Various scenes from an indeterminate time period.
‘Huh?’
Of course, even while watching, Jinhyeok couldn’t help but be confused.
The surname Windsor of the British royal family was created because of a knight from the Black Knight Order?
Even after reading it properly, his head couldn’t help but feel dazed.
He lowered his gaze and stared at Sofia who was sitting there.
It wasn’t actually Berid’s blood that continued.
But it was a bloodline that could continue to this day because Berid existed.
‘Hmm… I don’t know.’
Jinhyeok made a bewildered expression.
He couldn’t gauge at all how far this damn world extended, and if it was connected, how such things were even possible.
Ding!
[As a reward for the Epic Emergency Quest, you are given the blueprint of Windsor Castle! In the deepest depths of the old castle. Berid Windsor’s sword is hidden there!]
# Berid Windsor, who was called the Iron Knight. He was able to freely handle the weapons of those he had cut down.
# It is a sword imbued with the master’s power.
‘Holy.’
Jinhyeok covered his mouth.
How the world had become this way was a problem he could figure out step by step.
What was important was that something existed that would improve his combat power.
A reason to go to Windsor Castle had emerged.
Of course, since he had come this far, he would stop by Snowdonia Park first.
“Mr. Jinhyeok? Are you okay?”
Sofia asked with a worried face.
Jinhyeok had suddenly frozen in place as if possessed by something.
“I’m fine. I was just thinking about something else for a moment. Mr. Charles, how are you feeling?”
“Much better than before. Thank you.”
“That’s good. Then shall we start moving? You said we’re going to Conwy Castle, right?”
Jinhyeok smiled at the three stunned people.
“I’ll escort you there. To Conwy Castle.”
He had heard that Sofia’s forces were gathered at Conwy Castle.
If he took her there first, she would be safe.
After that, he planned to leave separately and go to Snowdonia.
“Let’s depart. To Conwy Castle!”
He stepped forward lightly.
The unexpected possibility of obtaining a sword.
He was already starting to grin with anticipation.
Crash!
The things on the table spilled onto the ground.
As if that wasn’t enough to calm his anger, Widric grabbed his sword and swung it wildly.
After venting his anger like that for a while, Widric gasped for breath and glared.
“What did you say?”
“I’m, I’m sorry!”
The man whose face had turned pale quickly lowered his body.
“Did I ask you to apologize? What did you just say?”
“We, we discovered Joipin’s unit completely wiped out near Rose Station. Including unit commander Joipin, all are dead.”
“Does that make sense?”
“Yes…?”
“I said does that make sense. All Sofia has with her is just one old bodyguard and one girl who isn’t even a combat-type awakener.”
The man swallowed his words.
There was no way he could answer that question.
He was just as bewildered and shocked.
Joipin’s unit consisted of those who had been moving underwater for Widric for a long time.
They were people whose skills were certain, so being massacred was something that couldn’t possibly happen no matter how he thought about it.
But it had happened, and in the end Sofia had reached Conwy Castle where her support forces were established.
“Straighten your expression.”
“Yes…?”
“I said straighten your expression. Nothing changes anyway.”
At the murderous tone, the man relaxed his stiff expression.
The madman Widric Palam Windsor.
If he touched the wrong nerve now, there was no telling what he might do to him.
“Hah…”
Widric let out a deep sigh and closed his eyes.
“Hey. Mr. Rugal. I want to become king. Very much so.”
“Yes, yes!”
“So I killed my mother, killed my father, and killed my brother too. I even put my grandmother in a coma while taking risks. I also slit the throats of all grandmother’s close associates who were interfering. Mr. Rugal knows this too, right?”
“Yes!”
“But does it make sense that I can’t become king?”
“No! How could that make sense!”
“Right?”
Widric opened his eyes and ran his hand through his hair.
Even for the formal succession to the throne, Sofia had to come to Windsor Castle where the current king Elisia was.
In other words, if Sofia just disappeared before then? The throne would pass to Widric, the only remaining bloodline.
It wouldn’t matter even if Elisia woke up late and grasped the situation.
By then, everything would already be over.
“Contact everyone in the ledger. If they don’t want to make all the money poured in so far go to waste…”
Widric trailed off as an eerie madness settled in his eyes.
“Tell them to do their best to make me king.”
“Yes! I’ll contact them right away!”
Rugal, who received the order, left the room.
Widric, who had caught his breath, drew a bloody smile.
‘Foolish little sister. Do you think hiding there will accomplish anything?’
If she thought that, she was greatly mistaken.
Conwy, the old castle symbolizing Wales.
He would burn that name pitch black and turn it to ash from now on.
