Chapters Chapter 148. Finding the Perpetrator. (2/2)
“Haha, just how many is this now? Princess is definitely talented at this.”
Amazing.
Podolski was inwardly shocked.
Even though they hadn’t been able to catch the golden carp yet, it was a given that whenever Arshelly pulled up her fishing rod, an extremely large fish would come up. She had skill that would make fishermen blush in shame.
“Hu…”
But Arshelly sighed.
“What is it, princess?”
“I still haven’t been able to catch the golden carp. Even though I've waited so long…”
“It’s only to be expected. The golden carp is an extremely rare catch that is normally a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
While Podolski was trying to cheer Arshelly up…
“Huh?”
Arshelly used her full strength in tugging her fishing pole.
“T-That's…
Don’t tell me!”
On the surface, one could barely see the golden outline of a fish. It was obvious that it was a golden carp.
“...It seems that some people do it in just 2 hours.”
Podolski muttered, in astonishment.
“Come on, let's help the princess!”
“Come on!”
An hour later.
Arshelly was finally able to use the help of Podolski and her escort soldiers to pull up the golden carp.
“Wow!”
Looking at the beautiful carp, Arshelly gasped.
“It’s a very beautiful and big fish! I’m so happy! Now I can cook this for grandmother to eat!”
“Haha! Congratulations, prin…”
As Podolski was laughing and congratulating Arshelly,
BANG!
A terrifying explosion sounded,
“Agh!!”
And with a single scream, a soldier fell down.
“...!”
At an unexpected ambush, Podolski quickly turned his body.
-------
There was nothing much that happened afterwards.
All that happened was that a small army had attacked them, and they were defeated.
“Milord…”
Podolski called Kang Chul-In, tired.
“The leader of the kidnappers… The princess’s magic didn’t work against the person at all… All the magic... Me and the soldiers tried to protect…”
Podolski stopped mid-sentence multiple times. It seemed that he would soon die of blood loss.
“And?”
Kang Chul-In added.
“Under… the commands of the princess… this subordinate came to report… to Milord… the princess… has used a spell… that transported her into another… pocket dimension…”
“Is she safe?”
“She said… she could last… for at least a week…”
Podolski started to gasp for breath,
Tuk.
And fell down on the ground. He had fainted after fulfilling his duty.
“Alfred.”
Kang Chul-In said.
“Quickly heal Podolski. Make sure that you definitely save him.”
“I will gladly comply, Milord!”
Alfred quickly left the hall, carrying Podolski.
“Huu…”
The only sound that could be heard in the silent hall was Kang Chul-In’s cold sigh.
“All troops. We head out. We go north. We will head out and take the life of the perpetrator that kidnapped Arshelly.”
The orders were strange.
How could they go north and catch the person behind this when they didn’t know who the perpetrator was?
“I know who it is.”
“Sorry?”
Kwak-Jung answered.
“I know the person who kidnapped Arshelly, so just listen to my commands and don’t ask any more questions.”
Kang Chul-In pointed towards the map showing the Ishtar region.
“Over here.”
A territory located at the extreme north. It was the territory of the current 19th Ranked Lord, Sheville Polanski.
This lord that had the ability to turn all magic into nothingness had also been conquered by Kang Chul-In in the past.
“This stupid bastard was the one who kidnapped my daughter.”
Bang!
The soul core of Laputa in Kang Chul-In’s hands smashed against the area that Kang Chul-In was pointing at.
“Until I take the head of this ignorant bastard and get my daughter back, I will not stop.”
Kang Chul-In growled ferociously.
