Chapter 38
However, there was nearly zero intel on the great swordsman . It certainly appeared that it needed to be investigated in person . Marie, who was not familiar with the guardian’s existence, did not appear to be too interested .
“There is an issue more important than that of the last of the great swordsmen . Valer . A great event has taken place because of the attack and seizure order . It is not an overstatement to say that the entire empire is focusing on it . ”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, furthermore, even Walpurgis has been implicated in the matter as well . ”
I could no longer take this news lightly upon hearing the reference to Walpurgis . The stories that Margareta has told about the before and after this event were incredulously complicated . However, drawing a conclusion was simple .
“I’ll go and help Sir Walpurgis . ”
“Really? Valer? Have you been ignoring all the things that I’ve been saying so far? Many of the big names of the empire are involved in this event . Furthermore, above all of them, even the emperor is implicated in all this, then how do you intend to take control when you lack both power and status?”
Margareta sounded worried . However, a decision has already been reached . I thought that I could unravel this thing that has been twisted and tied up like a thread .
“I can do it . ”
It was the right time to help Walpurgis and enter in to the political scene of the empire . Although it was much earlier than I suspected, I knew that such a day would come soon . I could not stay as a commander from behind the veil with no end in sight . If a scheme was to be hatched in the shades, there was a need to go out in to the light, donning a mask .
“Is that so . You’re certainly a difficult fellow to figure out . ”
Finally, shaking her head, Margareta gave up trying to dissuade me .
“Well, you’re a special fellow . ”
“On the contrary, I’m just a country boy . ”
“Huh! You are an incredible country boy . You are the first country boy who would have seen the temple of the seven demons . ”
As this matter was a political one, Margareta said that the Walpurgis Sisters Society would not be involved .
“It was an issue for the lord of Niederbayern, rather than for the Walpurgis Sisters . ”
“I understand . That is a prudent decision . ”
Showing some signs of discontent, Margareta fell into a thought by resting her chin on the back of her hand .
“Hm… so there is not an appropriate way for me to help you . ”
“Thank you for just even saying so . ”
“No . Anyone can encourage someone with empty words . I do not like such situation . Sincerity is shown with bright material things . ”
“…I ask for words that are fitting of a nun . ”
“Hahaha! Here, take this . ”
What Margareta put forth was a ring with embedded crimson jewel .

“This item belongs to our society and it allows instantaneous teleportation magic . I will let them know ahead, so use it whenever you need to . ”
A very good item has been received . My mobility power would increase big time going forward .
“Thank you . It is an overwhelming gift . ”
At every sizable branch of the Walpurga Sisters Society, there was a magical area which was set up for instantaneous teleportation . With this ring, it would be possible to instantly travel between the 12 cities, using teleportation magic . Located mainly in the west and in the south, those cities were under the jurisdiction of the Walpurga Sisters Society .
“Well, I can definitely go to Munich with ease for sure . ”
The city of Lantzhuit, where Walpurgis is staying, was only 50 kilometers from Munich, along the Isar River . Hence, due to Margareta, I was able to save a lot of time .
“This is a gift to you to help us, little angels . Valer, go and do your thing well . ”’
“Please do leave it to me . ”
“OK, that’s what a man does . ”
It’s better to be early than late, I, immediately, teleported over to Munich with Philly . From there it took less than half a day to Lantzhuit .
“Easy, easy . ”
Didn’t expect to come back to this place . Since it was not a material place for the story, Lantzhuit has not been visited that many times .
As the administrative center of Niederbayern, it was a quiet and peaceful city . Walpurgis was the countess of Niederbayern, which was located on the southeast of Bayern, so she mainly stayed here as she ruled the territory .

Before she became the feudal lord of Bayern, Niederbayern was the place where she had received the training to become the successor . I, immediately, went to the official residence where Walpurgis was staying .
“Stop! What brings you here?”
The soldiers who were guarding the entrance stopped me .
“I’ve come to see the countess of Niederbayern . ”
When she was serving as a sister knight, it was appropriate to call her madam Walpurgis . However, in peace times, she was the countess Niederbayern . It was necessary to be careful with how she was addressed .
“Do you have an appointment with her?”
Although I just went straight to the official residence to meet with the countess, the soldiers did not write me off . That was because my attire was highly regal .
The cursed birth, the S level armor, gave a feeling of closeness, but the attire appeared extremely beautiful . Furthermore, the appearance of Philly, the great horse, was also extraordinary . On a glance, both the horse and the armor appeared very expensive that they simply thought of me as an aristocrat .
“There is no pre engagement . ”
“Then it is difficult . First, please tell us who you are . ”
As if they were well trained gate keepers, they demonstrated a rather strong firmness . Although they were a bit shaken up by my attire, they said everything that they needed to say .
What should I do? It would seem that they would easily allow my passage should I show them the necklace that Walpurgis has given to me… Should I test my abilities once?
I, immediately, initiated

Koooo-oooong- .
The gate keepers were captivated by the overpowering energy that spewed out of me . With that, they looked surprised as they fluttered .
“I’m sorry sir . For the disrespect in not recognizing your Excellency!”
“Please forgive us!”
With the facial expression of their spirits having left them, they all kneeled down on one knee . Since they did not know what was going on due to the overpowering energy, they felt that they first needed to kneel down .
To them, I will appear as the hero of the humanity and the greatest person of all time . Even though the experience level was low for this skill, it would still work perfectly on 100 people or less .
“I am Ballasthedde Valer . Although I do not have an appointment, I had already been offered an invitation in the past by the countess of Niederbayern . Hence, I’m here, lead me to her . ”
“Yes, of course! I’ll take you sir!”
A senior ranked looking soldier got up hurriedly and began leading me while holding a halberd . He struggled since he didn’t know how to act properly as if I was a very high statured person to deal with .
However, due to the skill being used, I have attracted the attention of many people who were at the front of the official residence . The crowd of government workers and the soldiers were all looking at me .
Wow, this skill is certainly overwhelmingly troll-baiting… The sound of their murmuring while they bowed their heads toward me rang clearly in my sensitive ears .
“Looks like a guest, who is he?”
“A duke of someplace, perhaps?”
