2024-10-29 19:42:56"What?" asked Henry.
Both men's eyes turned away, looking at Jeanne, who still sat on the dining table chair. The girl turned her face the other way when Henry and Caroline looked at her.
"Is it true what he said, Jeanne?" asked Caroline, making sure.
Henry Ingfried seemed to be crouching near Mark Saxer, looking at the white-haired man with an angry look in his eyes. The heir to the House of Ingfried asked again for the truth about Jeanne's involvement with his actions.
"That's right. Five days ago, Jeanne came to Rachdale to meet with me. She offered me a partnership in exchange for twenty gold coins," Mark replied.
"Twenty gold coins? I didn't give her that amount of money. Are you sure he promised that?" asked Henry. Mark Saxer was seen nodding his head.
Tobias walked over to Henry, right next to Mark, who was lying limp on the floor, "You would only know the truth if you asked Jeanne directly."
"Tch!"
Jeanne clucked her to

Divine Sword Art System Chapter 64. Assassination Attempt
"Don't be kidding. I'm not interested in that kind of offer," Tobias said.His heart still belonged to Akihiko from then until now. No single woman in the world can replace Akihiko in Tobias' heart. That's why Tobias worked extra hard to get the highest status to search for Akihiko more easily."Do you already have someone in your heart?" Henry asked.Tobias nodded, his eyes looking closely at Henry and Caroline, "You should solve this problem by discussing, not sacrificing.""I will send a message through my soldiers about the results of my discussion with the villagers," Tobias replied.The Archibald nobleman began to take his leave, Henry no longer holding the man back. Boarding a horse-drawn carriage, Tobias left Ingfried's house with two soldiers and Mark. Henry and Caroline accompanied Tobias' departure, just until the front yard of the house.The farther Tobias' carriage travelled, the two Ingfried nobles could no longer see Tobias ca
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 65. Fatal Grudge
Several patrol soldiers ran into Tobias' residence. The front door was completely unlocked and appeared to have been forcefully broken into. Some other soldiers caught the mysterious person who attacked Tobias, a woman in her teens.Tobias lay unconscious with his body leaning against the doorframe, his perforated stomach continuing to bleed profusely until his body felt cold and pale."Hurry and get a doctor!" said one of the soldiers, ordering his colleague to call the village doctor.They hurriedly left the village chief's residence to reach the village clinic, where the only doctor in the village lived. The noise attracted the attention of the patrolling soldiers and Elisa, who appeared to be coming out of her house.Elisa's house was not far from the village head's residence, allowing her to see the damage on the balcony. Elisa's eyes couldn't hide her shock at finding Tobias being lifted up by three soldiers in a limp condition."What happene
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 66. Case Impact
Tobias widened his eyes, not expecting Jeanne to commit such a cruel act. In his opinion, this would further worsen the agreement between Tobias and Henry.That's why Caroline and Henry arrived at this place, to conduct further negotiations in order to prevent Tobias from canceling the agreement. Both of them had no time left to cooperate in various places, considering they had spent more than two weeks in Equestria.According to Henry's calculations, Ingfried and the Northern Isles would suffer tremendous losses if Tobias canceled the cooperation between the two. In Henry's opinion, it would be difficult to find people willing to give so much of their food in a partnership.Tobias tried to sit, lifting his body slowly. However, he was still not strong enough to do so. The wound on the right side of his abdomen was painful when flexed, so for the time being, Tobias would continue to lie down while receiving treatment from Elisa."Tell her to come in," Tob
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 67. First Speech
Tobias was shocked to hear this information, considering he hadn't heard any news from outside since he had been focusing on healing. Elisa didn't say anything. Whenever Tobias asked her a question, Elisa denied it with the excuse that she didn't want Tobias to think about it too much."Please... open the balcony door," Tobias pleaded.The soldier who approached Tobias did so well. He walked slowly over to the repaired balcony door, opened it, and a crowd appeared before the soldier's eyes.The man turned his body around, reaching out to indicate the people who were about to join Tobias' soldiers. Tobias smiled happily, especially after hearing the cheering crowd at the sight of the open balcony door."Do me a favor, Giselle," Tobias said.Giselle, a little hesitant, finally agreed to Tobias' demand. Both women's hands were seen holding Tobias' right hand, while Marcela focused on Tobias' left.The two women stepped slowly, guiding the shirt
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 68. Urgent Needs
***One month later."You have ten more months to complete all the equipment I need. Can you do it?" asked Tobias.The man was sitting upright in a chair behind his desk, receiving a visit from several blacksmiths from Rachdale and Edinburgh. They had come to Leafvile intending to target the village for their weapons sales, as word of Leafvile raising an army had already spread.Every week, more than 50-100 men came to Leafvile to register as soldiers. Many of the men were unemployed from their previous jobs. Of course, Tobias couldn't accept them all.Some were accepted, while others were rejected. The age and physical fitness of the soldiers were important points the man considered. He didn't want old men who couldn't lift up their armour to fight on the battlefield, which would be troublesome for the medical troops.That's why the selection was done by Roman to every man who wanted to apply. Fortunately, there were far more adult men than old ones, so Roman set a minimum and maximu
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 69. Trading Strategy
Tobias prepared the horse he would use for the trip by himself. The horse was black all over, and its size was larger than most horses. The man was seen hooking a bag on the horse's back behind the saddle."There are only three major cities in the western territory; Rachdale, Edinburgh, and Westwind. Leon will explain the details to you," said Elisa.The woman came after she had completed all the trade work she had done. The carriages carrying the harvest began to drive down the hill, heading to different places.This afternoon, all the carriages would return to Leafvile with the money from last month's selling. Elisa had already calculated the predicted income Leafvile would receive from the previous month's sale."If you are burned out, take some wine and enjoy. However, I advise you not to make any decisions when drunk," Tobias advised."Ever since I was assigned to be your right-hand, I've started to ease up on my drinking," Elisa said.
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 70. Traces of Existence
"What?" asked Tobias, surprised."Westwind is a big city, even bigger than Rachdale. It would be difficult for you to offer cooperation on the name of Leafvile, which is just a village," Leon said.Leon sat on a single sofa, looking at Tobias, who sat on the other sofa. If Leon had to be honest, Rachdale had many times proposed a partnership with Westwind, but it always failed.Even if it succeeded, Rachdale would only get a small profit, all based on necessity. However, Leon saw great potential in the partnership offered by Tobias."Undoubtedly, all places have been affected by the food crisis, Westwind being one of them," Leon replied."They are in desperate need of a large supply of food. Rachdale and Edinburgh can provide it, but not as much as Leafvile can," Leon said."If the House of Ingfried can even come to Leafvile to cooperate, then there is no reason for the lords of the western territories to refuse this partnership," Leon added
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 71. Someone Different
***The next day."I'm sure I've heard that name before," Leon said, walking through the corridors of the municipal building, toward the second floor where the administrative offices were located.Tobias kept Leon company, walking right behind the young man. He could delay his departure for Westwind, but he could not wait for news of Akihiko's whereabouts.After all this time of searching through the village visitors, Tobias did not expect he would find Akihiko from Leon. The two arrived at the administrative office door, Leon reached out, opened the doorknob and walked in with Tobias.A female staff working behind the desk was surprised to see Leon's arrival, as he was leaving today along with the Mayor of Rachdale for Valestria."Are you not leaving yet, Mr. Leon?" asked the female staff, Leon shook his head."The mayor is getting ready. I brought my friend here, he needs the data of a person named Akihiko," Leon said.The st

Chapter 255. The Everlasting Promises
Tobias looked faintly behind him, seeing thousands of human troops trying to chase Renna, who flew quickly to the east, back to the border area between the Forbidden Territory and the Human Territory.Tobias' right hand could be seen tightly grasped by Renna's left hand, while Aurora could be seen carried by the right. The two people left the place at high speed."I did exactly what you wanted. What's next?" asked Renna, curious.Renna continued flying with the help of her two black wings. Directed forward with the condition that she had left the troops of mankind.While flying freely, Renna occasionally glanced back, trying to ascertain Tobias' next plan.However, Tobias did not show any response, still silent, with both eyes directed forward to the rocky mountains rather than Renna's sights.As Renna flew over the rocky mountains, the lush green countryside with trees was clearly visible in Tobias' eyes. It indicated that Tobias was now in human territory."Where are you taking me,

Chapter 254. Guilt Atonement
Aerith did not hesitate to attack Tobias with all the power she had, with the mana capacity the woman had not so much anymore, the impact of the previous use of the palace's protective magic."Akihiko! Listen to me," Tobias insisted, asking Aerith to talk to him."You killed my husband! I won't forgive you," Aerith cried.With two magic circles appearing in front of Aerith's palms, dark black magic balls with a reddish-black color rushed towards Tobias' body.Tobias was able to deflect them easily, using his katana sword as if he was playing a game of baseball with Aerith. The magic balls flew in random directions, then exploded with a significant blast.Aurora looked terrified, taking cover behind Aerith's back with both Aurora's eyes closed. Tobias occasionally looked at Aurora, the little girl shouldn't be in a place like this."You shouldn't let Aurora see this fight," Tobias pleaded.Aerith stopped her attack on Tobias, looked back and saw Aurora who was trembling in fear with bo

Chapter 253. The Dangers of Sultur
"So, you want to get in my way?" asked Tobias, pointing his sword forward."No one is allowed to come near our King and Queen!" groaned one of the werewolves.It leapt powerfully forward, both hands and feet full of claws. Tobias parried each of the werewolf's claws with his katana, the monster's attacks were powerful enough, but not enough to defeat Tobias.Not only by itself, but the werewolf seemed to be assisted by several people, two representatives of the superior races in the Mythological Kingdom. A centaur walked over with his right hand pulling out a large sword, swinging at Tobias' head.Tobias was pushed back, the blade of his katana was blocking the attack of the monster's claws before him, so he had nothing to do but put his faith in the golden armor he wore. Tobias spun around, seemingly turning his back to the werewolf without changing the grip of the sword in his right hand. Tobias' left hand stretched out to the side, blocking the centaur's sword strike with the fing

Chapter 252. Battle Inside The Palace
Tobias was still seated on his horse, focusing both eyes forward to the Mythology Kingdom palace where Aerith and the other officials were taking refuge.Liam was now near Tobias, focusing equally on the palace. Liam's eyes narrowed, never before had he seen people from different races in the Forbidden Territory come together to fight humanity."Are we going to fight them all?" Liam asked."If we don't want the chain of hatred between the two sides to grow again, then we must fight them," Tobias said firmly.He dismounted, stepping closer to the palace gates that seemed to be protected by something. The people inside the palace were on alert, especially after seeing the man in golden armor walking closer.Tobias' hand stretched forward, trying to touch the magic barrier. Just as his fingers made contact, a spark of electricity and fire was created that startled Tobias.Tobias' eyes squinted hard, seeing the white smoke from his finger's contact with the magic wall."Are you okay?" ask

Chapter 251. Northern Gate Assault
Hearing Tobias' impassioned cry made all the soldiers flare up with excitement. They shouted loudly, raising their swords, bows and spears in the hope that the war would end in this battle.Gunnar led the troops that would attack at the center gate. Their main goal was not to penetrate that place, but rather to distract the Mythology Kingdom's troops from the north gate.Just as Edgar led the troops to attack the southern gate. In this battle, three armies of humanity will besiege the capital from three entry points: north, center, and south.Gunnar led the army with Adrian and Karin, while Edgar was alone with Laura. However, Tobias had asked Laura to use her illusion magic. He wanted the mythology troops to know that Tobias was in the troops attacking the southern gate.The focus of the Mythology Kingdom troops will be on Tobias, because only he can determine the course of this war. If Laura managed to display Tobias' projection at the southern gate, then it was certain that the Myt

Chapter 250. Rumbling War
Seeing that the banyan tree territory was completely controlled by the dwarves made Tobias' heart happy. The dwarves shouted with joy, some cried with emotion while hugging each other.One of the lead dwarves walked up to Tobias. He raised a hat similar to a magic cone and lowered it while bowing his head.Not only did he do this, but the other dwarves did the same. They paid their highest respects to Tobias, who was a human, in his attempt to reclaim the sacred place for them."Thank you, Mr. Tobias. We dwarves will always be indebted to humans," the dwarf replied.Tobias, who was still sitting upright on his mount, dismounted, stepped up to the dwarf and reached forward, asking both parties to shake hands."Welcome to your true home. Keep your promise not to participate in this war," Tobias said.The dwarf cast both eyes downward, looking at Tobias' right hand that was pointed forward. The dwarf in front of Tobias smiled widely with a nod of his head, shaking Tobias with both hands.

Chapter 249. Battle under Tree
In the end, Tobias agreed with the dwarves on a plan of attack. However, the dwarves wanted to give a special condition. They wanted when the attack on the Mythological Kingdom Capital happened, he wanted all the dwarves to have left their city.In short, they wanted Tobias to liberate the promised area immediately. Once the area was free of wild elves, then Tobias could freely attack the capital.Gunnar, who happened to still be beside Tobias, spontaneously asked about the requirement. Tobias turned his face to the side, staring intently at the man."We'll carry out the terms well," Tobias said."But with whom? It will take about half a day to mobilize the troops there," Gunnar replied.Tobias shook his head as his eyes star

Chapter 248. Negotiate with Dwarves
Tobias' head kept moving to the right and left, seeing how many Mythology troops were guarding the gate of the capital connected to the city of the dwarves.Not so much; there were probably only about 1000 people, in contrast to the gate in the center where there were probably about 5000 to 10,000 mythological troop soldiers.Liam and Gunnar did the same, looking around the surrounding area as Tobias had done. However, they were not paying attention to the soldiers above the gate but to the dwarves in that place."If the dwarves fight too, then we'll have a hard time," Liam replied softly."You're right. The dwarves are good at using magic. Their abilities are almost comparable to the elves," Renna added, turning her head to the side to look at Tobias.
