Estio Volume 8
- Episode 15
Shuhanan, who was looking at the portal with terribly helpless eyes, managed to get up and raise his hand. Then he whispered a little.
"Refee Stigmata."
Paah!
A sword in a blue scabbard appeared from the air. It was a scabbard they had never seen before, but everyone knew that what was inside was a holy sword shining in golden light.
"Take this guy."
"...a holy sword?"
Estio didn't even think to receive it, but the holy sword came down and appeared in front of him at will.
widely!
The blonde girl who got down on the floor lightly smiled at Estio.
"Estio, good morning!"
"Yes. Good morning Lipe too."
As soon as the two saw their faces, they casually greeted each other in the morning. A blue muffler was wrapped around the neck of the holy sword in the form of a small human girl. And Estio recognized the muffler.
'I was still doing it.'
The last time we met, it was the scarf he had wrapped up in the chapel for fear of being cold. Estio speculated that when Lipe turned into a sword, her blue scarf was unusually shaped like a scabbard.
"Airanda has given me the most power among the Guardians. She has a lot of knowledge about the Balaur and can imitate my powers to a certain extent. If I carry her with me, it will be helpful to you in every way."
The reason Shuhanan wanted to attach the holy sword to Estio was simple. If Lipe goes with Estio, Shuhanan will be able to automatically track the location of his son even if he remains in the Vatican, and he will also be able to hear reports in real time.
'And if you're still...'
In fact, the holy sword made from the bones of the Hwangryong had one more special function. Shuhanan ordered Lipe with a chin gesture without even mentioning it.
"Never take your eyes off of it at any moment and stick with it."
"Sungha, it looks like a bit of a leech right now."
"That's right. Just stick around like a leech."
"Yes."
Neither the Holy Sword that dared compare its owner to a leech, nor the Hwangryong, who was satisfied with what he said was true, neither looked normal. Unseen Parker turned his head and whispered to his quietly Lou Berry.
"Hey, Holy Knight Commander."
"What?"
"Isn't the holy sword the chief's main weapon?"
Ruby quickly noticed why Parker was asking such a question and frowned.
"That's right. During that time, I was in charge of that cheeky holy sword that pierces the sky. Because the Holy Spirit has chosen me as the right person for the holy sword."
Even if he was the right person, the Holy Sword did not necessarily follow Ruby's orders. The holy sword Lipe Stigmata, who had only been given permission to use the power of the Holy Sword, and had free will, often resisted Ruby's orders.
"From the beginning, there was only one owner of the Holy Sword. As an excellent guardian, I was given the rights for a while."
Parker and Moobin stared at Ruby, who had praised herself for being excellent with her own mouth, with no warmth in their eyes. Ruby smiled abruptly on her lips and then turned her gaze to look at the holy sword and Estio.
"Fuhh. Well, it seems that a new person has been appointed instead of me."
The holy sword had already been passed over to Estio. He didn't know if it was because he was the owner's son or if it was because of the characteristics of the black dragon. Still, even though we had been together for over a hundred years, the holy sword that left his hand without any hesitation was a bit embarrassing for Lou Berry. Ruby, who was glaring at Lipe's smiling face, sighed with resignation.
"Ha! It's a pity. After teaching the Holy Power, I wanted to hold the Holy Sword and stick with you properly once again."
"OK?"
Mubin, who was picking his ear canal with his finger, reacted when his story suddenly came up.
"Hey, sir, isn't it a bit sad that training is over like this?"
Instead of feeling sorry for them together, Moobin made a disgusted expression on his face.
"Hey, it's annoying. You're just showing off your strength for nothing, hitting, hitting, and fighting.
"It's true, he's the best swordsman in the empire, so he doesn't have the guts."
Apart from being strong, Mubin didn't like fighting very much. Mubin pretended not to notice Ruby's provocation and let it go.
'Growing up anyway, I was wallowing around the battlefield.'
If it was a purposeless fight, I was fed up with it. Through this incident, Moobin has already made up his mind. If there are future generations, I will never teach them the meaningless battles they have been through. Heiga's sword will now only be drawn for its master.
"The cross necklace I gave you contains my divine power. It shouldn't be, but in case of a serious injury like this one, I'll be able to provide first aid with this."
"Oh, thank you."
Estio bowed his head and expressed his gratitude. But Shuhanan's concerns did not end there.
"If you need help from the temple, you can ask for it at any time, so I'll use it to my heart's content."
He couldn't think of anything to ask for help from the temple, but Estio nodded his head.
"If anything happens, be sure to contact me through the Holy Sword."
"Yes."
"Even if there is nothing special, I will contact you."
"......Yes."
After that, Shuhanan, who had been arguing with a lot of miscellaneous worries and requests, put his hand on Estio's head with a depressed face. Now is the time to really let go. Lipe noticed the time and returned to the form of a sword again.
wow.
Shuhanan added to Estio, who was looking at the blue scabbard in his hand with curious eyes.
"I'll be staying here forever. You can come back whenever you want."
It was a friendly voice.
"Then, baby, have a good trip."
Estio looked up at Shuhanan without saying a word for a moment. This was the second time I had been asked to go. It was the greeting he heard when he left after receiving a quest from the original guild. He felt a little overwhelmed when he first heard that he had to go to the guild, but this time he felt a little different. If the guild headquarters is a place like a resting place after returning from a mission, here Elysium where Shuhanan is located.
'The house waiting for me to return.'
Upon realizing that fact, Estio became very lighthearted. The next time he met, I had a small expectation that he would like to tell Shu Hanan about what he saw while traveling around the world.
"I'll go."
It was the moment when Shuhanan lowered the hand that had been stroking his son's head with a confused mind.
"father."
Golden eyes full of surprise stared intently at Estio.
Except for a brief laugh among his colleagues, he was an expressionless child the whole time. The child she used to be is now showing her father a different face. She had a small, calm smile that seemed to break when touched, but it was definitely a smile on her face.

The Ignis Guild headquarters, which returned after a month or so, was in its original state of noise again after the war was over. Guild members gathered around the busy counter and were busy doing all sorts of tasks, such as checking the request, starting it, or reporting it. Of course, Guildmaster Kai, who was reluctant to be in complicated places, was no longer visible from the counter.
"Welcome, leader Estio. There are a total of 231 pending requests. Do you want to check them all?"
"......"
In the past, there were at most 3 or 40 cases, but now the number of requests has increased to the extent that it is difficult to check them all.
'Maybe this will increase to a thousand units later.'
It was a unit that got tired of even imagining it. In order to check all the titles of Estio's Conflict, a separate request list was issued. Although it was a simple list with only the requester and the title of the request written in small print, all 231 cases were printed and it reached 6 pages. Thought it was fortunate that there was a machine that automatically sorts and prints these documents, Estio glanced at the list of quests that came in front of him.
Because of his unique power of 'the ability to read minds', the client and the contents of the request were very different. There were even requests from other countries as well as the Rubarzan Empire. Estio's gaze, who was casually reading the quest title, suddenly stopped in one place.
[Customer: Ignis Guild Galatia Branch Manager Hawk Rowley. ]
A familiar name appeared.
Estio first checked all the way to the back page, then returned to the front and looked at the name of the request from the Galasia branch. It was simply written 'delivery case'.
"delivery......?"
"Huh? Do you have a delivery request?"
Since it is normal for delivery requests to be assigned to the delivery man, Parker, who was waiting for the boss's decision, was skeptical and checked the list of requests. Then, soon after, 'Ah!' ' he said with a brief exclamation.
"It's probably not a letter or a parcel, it's a living person or animal."
It was a familiar request form for Bernie Parker, who worked as a delivery man before becoming a leader support team.
"The delivery guys are mainly people who don't have combat skills. If it's a creature, they need to be careful, so they turn it over to a special department."
"What does it have to do with not having combat skills?"
"Ugh, it's dangerous to have to transport even ferocious wild beasts. Sometimes they carry prisoners."
The Empire often commissioned the guild to move prisoners who committed heinous crimes to distant prisons or execution sites. What the prisoner and the beast had in common was that they could break the chain and try to escape at any time. In the process, the weaker guild members were unable to stop the target and were seriously injured or killed. In the end, the guild passed the quest to the combat team or special team if the target to be transported was a creature.
After confirming the request that Estio Mubin was interested in, he made an expression that he would understand.
"If it's Galasia, it's the branch you used to be in."
Ignis Guild Galasia Branch. It was the place where Estio joined the guild and the starting point of all changes. There, Estio learned what food, clothing, and shelter needed for people to live.
The branch manager, Hawk Rowley, personally interviewed him, and after accepting him as a guild member, he taught him how to communicate with people. He also realized the simple fact that different people have different tastes, thanks to the wave-flavored candy that the chapter manager Hawk authorized. They were the people who recognized Neju, the terrifying white-haired monkey, as a friend without hesitation. For Estio, Galasia was more like home than the town of Selvia, where he was born and raised.
Estio went back to the counter and said that he would receive a request for Galasia, and soon a neatly sealed request envelope came into his hand.
