The Pascal Islands quickly became a ruin.

Because of the struggle between Caesar and Lacromu, the whole area was destroyed.

With that gap, Ian was able to proceed with the quest more easily.

Brawl -

“Come out this way, people! If you head south, the Galeon will be anchored! ”

Ian opens the prison door with the key he got from the guards, and the prisoners inside break out of Ur.

[Oh, thank you...!]

[You haven't forgotten us...!]

Ian, on Harley, quickly made his way around the prison and rescued the captives from the Ruspel Empire.

It took a maze of complex paths to get to the heart of the prison, but the structure of the center was relatively simple in a circle and did not take long to find the prisoners.

Tyring -

[‘Rescue Warlords’ Quest]

[Progress - 52/77 (67.53%)]

[Requirement achievement rate - 1/2 (50.00%)]

Seeing the rising message, Ian mutters to himself.

‘Progress, I know it's proportional to the number of prisoners rescuing... but what are the requirements? What else is there besides saving Kaisar? ’

Ian kept checking the situation while moving busy.

At first, a situation that seemed disadvantageous because of the thirteen numbers was reversed due to the merge of the rescued prisoners and the washing of the galleon ship.

Punk-punk-!

The sound of gunfire coming from everywhere.

“Charge! Kill the Kaimon tremblers!" ”

“Wow…!! ”

The reinforcements of the Ruspel Empire rushed into the enclosure, and Ian, who was stranded on his feet, became breathless.

Okay, did everyone make it inside? ’

Ian looks back and sees the Summoners, Seria, and Pauline's face.

And finally, after seeing Captain Laurent's face, Ian felt relieved.

‘Gas, are you almost done? ’

Ian, who had been focused on rescuing the prisoners for a while, had a quick check on the progress.

[Progress - 72/77 (93.50%)]

Five prisoners left.

When Ian was about to take a sigh of relief, he whipped him.) The system message came back to me.

[Irregular Event Triggered! A support fleet from the Kaimon Empire is approaching Pascal's encroachment.]

[Time to Arrive Support Fleet of the Kaimon Empire - 00: 12: 54]

[All prisoners must be taken aboard the Galeon until Caimon Empire Naval Admiral Harwin reaches Pascal's Branch. All requirements are met.]

Ian uncovered the identity of the requirements for completing a quest that he did not know existed.

“... A support fleet for the Kaimon Empire?" Weren't we sneaking in here? ”

Ian groaned into himself a dozen times, "It can't be that easy." He immediately climbed onto Harley's back and ran like crazy towards the last oxa seen at the end of the hall.

"Ahh, how do I get five people on a boat in 12 minutes?! ’

There was no problem until we rescued him.

The problem was that no matter how fast the prisoners moved from oxa to the south shore where the ship docked, it would take longer than 15 minutes.

But it wasn't that there was no way.

Ian can stop Kaimon's reinforcements himself.

‘Can I stop it...? ’

If we hold off the Kaimon Imperium navy for five minutes before it reaches Pascal's Branch, the prisoners will be able to safely escape the prison and board the docked galleon ship.

‘We don't know the size of the enemy support fleet. ’

In fact, knowing the size of the reinforcement fleet may not mean much.

It would have been hard for Ian to hold off enough time on his own for a fleet or two anyway.

But then...

Ian's brain had a good idea.

* * *

[You cowardly Norm...!!]

Lacromu is slowly crumbling.

Ian sneaks up behind him and continues to blow the sphere of magical power into the tight crevices of Caesar and Lacromu.

And the effect was very successful.

The battle strength of Caesar and Lacromu was so similar, that even with the slightest extra weight, the battle was quickly reversed.

Of course, it was one of the reasons Lacromu's strength was so weakened by the long battle that it easily collapsed.

“Don't be a coward, fool. There are no cowards in war. Winning is good.”

Ian scoffs at the dying Lacromu, hurriedly turning to Caesar.

“Caesar, help me. ”

In Ian's words, Caesar asked with a curious expression.

He hesitates to finish a fair one-on-one battle, and his voice sinks low.

[What do you mean?]

“My Qu... No, a fleet of the Kaimon Empire is attempting to land in the east. We must stop them until the prisoners are safely aboard. ”

Kaisar's eyes widen slightly.

[By the way, how do you know the soldiers in the Kaimon Empire...?]

“It's quite large, so I'm alone. I need your help, Kaisar. ”

This is what Ian thought he was after.

I thought that if Kaisar was strong enough to fight together, he would stand a good chance.

Captain Laurent and the nearest escort, Pauline. And with the reinforcements, we should be able to stall enough time against the Kaimon fleet.

Kaisar nods happily.

[All right, let's go. By the way, is there another sword besides this one?]

“Yes?”

Kazar smiles faintly as he lifts up the only grade sword he received from Ian.

[As you can see, it's broken.]

The item's durability was depleted during a battle with Lacromu.

Ian became an absurd face.

‘No, it wasn't very durable because I didn't have it repaired in advance... but it certainly didn't wear off so soon... ’

Once the item's durability is depleted in Kailan, you can continue to repair and use it, but once the item is depleted, it cannot be restored.

In other words, the sword in Caesar's hand is now a worthless lump of iron.

‘Ugh... But if you put it in that auction house, it was worth 200,000 gold... ’

A sigh came out of Ian's mouth after blowing out the money.

“Phew... ”

But no matter how much the outfit exploded, now it was Ian who wasn't Caesar.

Ian began a hard search of his inventory.

Did you have any useful swords left? ’

However, no matter what you look for, the Great Sword was the only legendary item obtained during the battle with Orville, the Great Sword of Dark Fenrir.

‘Era, I don't know. Maybe there's a way. ’

Caesar's Great Sword is most definitely unavailable as it is a component of his account, but Ian takes the item out first.

“I have this... ”

Ian pulls out the Great Sword, blurring the end of the horse.

And Kazakh's eyes glistened with the legendary items flowing through his ears.

[Oh... It's been a long time since I've seen such a good sword...]

“But here's the thing. ”

[Problem...?]

“This sword belongs to me. Maybe Caesar won't be able to use it. ”

The sadness passes through Caesar's eyes.

[Hmm... Is there really no way? That sword will definitely not be enough to slaughter the young Kaimon...]

Ian answered without much thought.

“There is one way. ”

[What?]

“Caesar may enter my body. You can also use items that belong to me. ”

[Oh, yeah?]

“ …? ”

Ian looked ridiculous.

‘Yes... are you going to come into my body or what? ’

Kaisar, a great NPC, said Helheim, the Imperial Knight Leader, is a necessary talent for winning wars.

Moreover, the combat strength that I saw with my own eyes was so great that I could not even fathom it.

He must be a nobleman or an Imperial knight. He can't be Ian's pretender.

At that moment, I remembered the incredible system message in front of Ian's eyes.

["The Swordsman of Destruction Kaisar" wants to be your pretender.]

“ …? ”

Ian turns his head toward Kaisar, dumbfounded.

Kaisar urges Ian.

What are you waiting for? I don't have time.]

“Caesar, weren't you a nobleman? ”

Ian naturally thought that Caesar was a higher rank nobleman than himself.

But his next answer was no big deal.

[I'm a commoner.]

“ …. ”

What kind of commoner treats a baron naturally? ’

Ian rumbles through his mind, but quickly pulls out the Lord's Seal to accept Kaisar's offer.

“I won't redeem it later. ”

In Ian's words, Caesar frowns.

[That's because I saw you do it.]

“Hah... ”

Ian let out a sigh, but he went ahead with the contract because he could not take away the opportunity to get this incredible pretense.

Huuung-

A light gushes from the seal in Ian's hand and seeps into Kaisar's wrist.

[I took the ‘Prosecutor of Destruction Kaisar’ as my successor.]

[The Talent Rank of the deceased ‘Kaisar’ is the 'Myth’ Rank, and the current stat is the 'Legendary’ Rank.]

[Current status of Ian's death: 6/20]

And Ian, who checked the system messages, called for joy in his heart.

"Poetry, mythology?!" Crazy...!! ’

Since Seria's talent grade was a hero grade, I vaguely expected that Kaisar's grade would be more than that of a legend, but I couldn't feel it when I checked the words Myth Rating.

"What are her abilities? ’

I was excited to see what Kaisar was capable of.

Kaisar snatches the sword from Ian's hand and strikes himself outside the chrysalis.

[I've dispatched the item 'Dark Penthe's Great Sword’ to the deceased ‘Kaisar’.]

In the system message that followed, Ian became a complete and utter wreck.

"No, Sergeant! This is extortion, Sergeant. ’

But now, there was no time to be angry with Ian.

And since I got mythical NPC with a legendary rank item, it was not a lost business.

[You said there was no time, my lord. Move quickly.]

Kaisar's Pain (?), Ian followed him with a stupefied expression.

"No, where did he go? ’

Ian grumbles and goes after Kaisar.

Ian, however, was later able to confirm Kaisar's level, and had no choice but to follow in his footsteps.
