Chapter 477: 477

When Luke had gone to Nemesis to save Count Ferrero, the Capital city of Symphonia, Brandon got turned over .

It was because a self-claimed real descendant of Rakan had appeared .

“What? Someone dared to pretend as the warrior’s descendant and is trying to get into the royal palace?”

“Yes, Prime Minister Hans has asked you to hurry . ”

Rogers, who had gone for a patrol near Brando, received a sudden emergency call .

Hurrying back, what he saw was the sight of hundreds of knights and soldiers in the square of the palace .

Not just soldiers, but the proximal knights, including Hwang Bo-sung were there for the imposter .

But, rather than subduing the man, they were avoiding his sword .

Rogers’s face went red with anger, seeing them like that .

“What the hell is this?!”

Shouting, Rogers hurried to the place .

The man who was about to hit Hwang Bo-sung stopped .

Rogers burst out at Hwang Bo-sung, who was standing there .

“What are you doing? A commander couldn’t do anything against an imposter!”

Hwang Bo-sung’s face was flustered by Rogers’s words .

“The man isn’t an imposter, Marquis . ”

“What are you talking about…?”

“The man knows Gold Sword . Isn’t that something exclusive to the Rakan Knight’s skill?”

“What, what?”

Flustered, Rogers took a close look at the imposter .

A man with bright blue eyes of confidence and a silver hair which gave a strong impression .

It was as if he had been painted exactly based on the appearance of Warrior Rakan, who was in their family portrait .

‘Wait, during the Battle of Magic Towers, there was a rumor about a mercenary who used Gold Aura . ’

Rakan’s retainers even suspected that the man could be another child of the warrior .

However, their pursuit failed, and as the Battle of Magic Tower soon receded .

‘Is he really another child of Lord Rakan?’

In order to solve the question in his mind, Rogers decided to approach the man .

“Who might you be?”

In response to the man’s arrogant question, Rogers slightly frowned .

“I am Marquis Rogers, the Chief Commander of the Symphonia Army . Who might you be?”

The man opened his mouth after slowly looking at all the knights and soldiers around him .

“I am Hiros de Rakan . The 17th generation of the Warrior Rakan . I came here to dispel the shame on the family which touched the power of darkness and bring in success and glory as the real family . ”

The man, well, Hiros’s words, made the knights and soldiers talk .

“Not an imposter but another descendant of the warrior?”

“Could have happened too long ago, a family member split . ”

“But Your Majesty touched darkness?”

“I heard the rumor about something like that the other day, but is this real?”

A few months ago, rumors about Luke’s dark magic broke out .

However, there was no evidence to prove that claim, and the achievements Luke had accumulated over the years helped the dismissing the rumors .

But when the same topic rose again, people weren’t so sure .

At his words, Rogers screamed thinking that he had to protect his King’s honor and shut Hiros’s mouth .

“You must be someone with a death wish! How dare you spread rumors without grounds! I will have to punish you for this act!”

“Huh, try it if you can . ”

Hiros smirked only to provoke Rogers .

It ended up angering Hwang Bo-sung and the other knights too .

Rogers pulled his sword and went for the man .

But Hiros swung his sword with a single hand and managed to block his attack .

Kang!

And next came the attack from Hiros .

It wasn’t easy for Rogers to stop the constant attacks from the man .

He could feel the sweat flowing down from his head .

‘Sir Hwang Bo-sung was right about it . He never stops!’

Hiros’s fencing was different .

It looked like the sword of the man was dancing to its own rhythm, however, the tip of the sword always came exactly for the heart or neck .

‘He is surely Sword Master, no, he could be more . ’

With thoughts in mind, Rogers didn’t want to act on defense and decided to go for Impact Aura and Gold Sword .

Pretending to step back, he took a step ahead suddenly and hit Hiros’s sword .

Kang!

When the swords of both men clashed, a huge sound rang .

“Kuak!”

Rogers couldn’t stop his body from getting pushed back . And the hand which held the sword was trembling .

‘It can’t be!’

Hiros, who was attacked by an Impact Aura, just canceled it with a slash .

However, what shocked Rogers, even more, was that Hiros was using Gold Sword .

The movement of the man was so fast and concise that no one could have figured it out .

“Still doubting me?”

At Hiros’s question, Rogers just looked at him without answering .

“You don’t want to believe it . then I should fight you a little more . ”

Hiros’s sword stretched to the sky, drew in a beautiful trajectory .

Seeing the intense golden aura at the sword, Rogers’s eyes went wide .

‘Oh, oh my god! That is the second half…!’

It was similar to what Luke had showed them in the combat with the Avenger test .

At that time, Luke put the sword to the ground to create an earthquake-like effect, however, Hiros was using that at Rogers .

Trrrr!

The sword, which was in the air, went right at Rogers’s sword .

The same moment, a huge wave of force hit Hwang Bo-sung and the knights who were watching from behind .

“Uahh!”

“Ahk! My legs!”

The knights screamed at the shockwaves created by Gold Sword .

Hwang Bo-sung was the only one who didn’t get hit by the shockwave .

However, he seemed too upset .

‘Without a mistake, that is the second half . Currently, the one’s learning of the second half from his Majesty are Count Philip and Arch Duke Gregory of the Holy Empire . How does that man know?’

Rogers was having the same question run through his head .

Once Rogers’s sword seized to move, Hiros opened his mouth with a blunt voice .

“The previous attack, I deliberately lowered its impact, considering everything around here and your ability . Thank you for being Rakan’s retainer . ”

“Kuak!”

Rogers held his broken sword’s hilt .

It was because the man said he deliberately lowered the impact .

However, it wasn’t right for someone who was spared to speak out impolitely .

Rogers, whose pride was hurt, spoke back bitterly .

“You may be a descendant of a warrior . And you could be a Sword sage . However…”

Rogers stopped talking and screamed by releasing an Impact Aura from the half sword .

“However, you are a knight with no basics!”

“That could be too . ”

Hiros responded casually to Rogers and fixed his sword .

At that moment, Rogers rushed to him, a voice stopped them .

“Stop this!”

The voice belonged to Prime Minister, Hans .

He and Maron were approaching their place .

“Prime Minister?”

“Marquis Rogers, take back the sword . There are things that need to be checked . ”

At those words, Rogers stepped back, throwing down the broken sword to the ground .

Hans sighed looking at Rogers and spoke politely to Hiros .

“There are too many eyes here . Why not talk inside?”

“Should I think from your people’s point of view?”

At the words of Hiros, Maron responded instead of Hans with stiffness in voice .

“Think of your position better than ours . If you really are the Rakan descendant, this act will dishonor your family . ”

At the words of Maron, Hiros thought for a moment and nodded .

“Understood . I will accept it . ”

“You choose well . ”

And thus, with Hans and Maron, Hiros moved to the officer with officers .

During that time, rumors spread in the royal city that another descendant of Rakan had appeared .
