Chapter 149
Chapter 149 : Kang Chul-In’s RegretsThere was only one reason why Kang Chul-In thought that Sheville Polansky was the villain .
Sheville Polansky was a Lord with the nickname ‘The Spellthirster,' due to his ability that negated all magic .
He was able to absorb the magic that the enemy casted, and make it so that it instead gave him body enhancements .
This meant that he was the bane of all mages and magicians, since he was able to counter them perfectly .
I’ll rip you to shreds when I meet you .
Kang Chul-In gritted his teeth .
Kang Chul-In had no doubt in his mind that the one behind all of this was Sheville Polansky .
Just hearing Podolski’s explanation was enough .
Arshelly Berlinetta Pon Aurangzeb was a ridiculously powerful S rank mage, esper, and warrior with an immeasurable potential .
And someone stopped Arshelly’s magic completely?
Of course, Arshelly could just use her high-level swordplay, but she was just too young to use it properly .
First of all, she was lacking in height .
Since she wasn’t very tall, her arms and legs were short, meaning that she was at an absolute disadvantage in a fight--- not to mention her light weight .
Even though she did have ridiculous potential, it was safe to say that she wouldn’t be able to overcome her current physical disadvantages . That meant that Arshelly would have no choice but to deal with the enemies with her magic, but due to Sheville Polansky's ability, that wouldn’t work .
Who dares… to hurt my daughter?
Looking at the territory of Sheville Polansky on the map, Kang Chul-In’s terrifying aura swept the room .
At that moment .
Throb .
“ . . . . . !”
At that moment, Kang Chul-In felt like someone was stabbing his heart with a knife, making him nearly grasp his chest in pain .
His heart… his heart throbbed intensely .
It felt like it hurt hundreds or thousands times more than when Rothschild had stabbed his heart . He also felt empty .
In the morning, and during the night . The fact that his lovely daughter that came to visit him all the time to say hello wasn't here made his heart feel empty .
“Father~! I’ll definitely go get a golden carp for grandmother!”
Kang Chul-In recalled the conversation he had with Arshelly this morning .
“Yes, daughter . Make sure that you don’t get injured . ”
“Yes, father! But…”magic
“Hm?”
“W-Will you… k-kiss…”
“ . . . . . . . ”
“I-Is that not possi…”
“There are many eyes around . Don’t you see all the maids?”
“Okay…”
“Maybe later . ”
“Hng… Though it’s a shame… Then maybe later?”The spell that Arshelly had cast was a defensive spell called ‘Untouchable Barrier,' which would defend the caster from all outside threats . Using this spell, one would be able to negate even the strongest of spells, such as a dragon’s breath .
But,
“It will only last for a week at max . ”
Even a powerful mage like Arshelly would only be able to activate it for a week at the very maximum .
Although Sheville Polansky couldn’t absorb the spell since it wasn’t an offensive one, the chance that something would go wrong increased as time went by .
“Once Arshelly’s mana runs out, her safety won’t be guaranteed . ”
“Milord, please think about it calmly . Since you're going, isn’t the safety of the princess already guaranteed?”
“I feel so terrible . I feel so dirty that killing intent keeps flaring up . ”
“Is it because Milord recalls that man’s true face?”
Alfred remembered Sheville Polansky .
Previously when they were conquering Sheville Polansky’s territory, Kang Chul-In and Alfred had witnessed a hideous scene within a forest in Sheville Polansky’s territory .
Sheville Polansky was a psychopathic murderer that had a weird fetish for children .
What did he do?
He had a hobby of locking young girls and boys within a glass cage, and watching them .
And after?
He killed them by poisoning them, would dismember their bodies, and would label the body parts by their name . Sheville Polansky was a man who used his position of Lord as a tool to continue his hideous behavior in Pangaea where he wouldn’t be found out .
“To think that despicable bastard will… . My daughter . Daughter…”
Finally leaving the hall, Kang Chul-In muttered one last time .
“Wait a little bit . ”
-------
At the same time .
Inside the ‘Untouchable Barrier’, Arshelly was getting carried on a wagon .
“Don’t just stay inside, come out . ”
An old man who looked to be about 60 spoke to Arshelly while sitting on the wagon .
“This old man isn’t trying to hurt you . ”
“ . . . ”
“Huhu, it seems like you’re still afraid . Take a look . There are so many delicious sweets here . ”
“ . . . ”
No matter how much the old man tried to persuade her, Arshelly didn’t respond . She pretended not to hear anything .
“Let me introduce myself properly . ”
“ . . . ”
“This grandpa’s name is Sheville Polansky . I’m not a bad person . I’m actually a Lord who controls the ‘Bittermoon’ territory . Think about it . Why would a lord like me try to hurt you?”
“ . . . ”
Even though Sheville Polansky introduced himself, Arshelly still remained silent .
It was a smart decision .
As the child of Kang Chul-In, Arshelly’s strategic value was incomparable . If news that his daughter had been kidnapped was spread, there was no doubt that many lords would start to salivate at the thought of taking Arshelly hostage .
“Huu…”
Finally unable to stand it, Sheville Polansky exploded .
“You stupid girl! How dare you ignore me? Fine! Let’s see if you’re still able to stay like that once we arrive at my secret place . Huhu…”
Sheville Polansky stared at Arshelly with lustful eyes .
