Chapter 122: Inheritance (2)

That arrogant attitude, as if he was certain he was stronger, was so repulsive that Yuri wanted to press a sword to his throat and make him sob.

When Yuri provoked him—even at the risk of his own neck—Zaire’s face twisted. crystal His fist trembled violently. atlas But Yuri didn’t care in the slightest how offended he was.

Now that he thought about it, it had been a while since he’d crossed swords with someone in earnest.

It was the other who had started the conflict.

“I told you I’m busy. agent That’s why I was so kind as to slap you myself. legend So let’s hurry up.”

The last time he fought for his life was against Okua. avalanche Maybe that was it… maybe he’d been suppressing his desire to fight.

Yuri curled his lips and looked at Zaire’s angry face as he said,

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Very well.”

Zaire laughed as if he couldn’t believe it. arena As he looked down at Yuri with an ambiguous smile, he seemed to reflect for a moment, then nodded.

“Hahaha…”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“And you know what honor is?”

“Come with me. arena It would be disgraceful to humiliate a prince in the middle of the market. acoustic We’ll fight at the castle.”

And turned around.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Even if their lord was wrong, the knights were bound to obey his will.

Yuri said to Jared, walking beside him,

Yuri openly mocked him as he followed. arctic The knights of Gatensha shared Zaire’s anger, creating a tense atmosphere.

“Jealous, huh? arch You should support me without question like they do.”

Jared grimaced.

“Who knows…”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Though it was a count’s castle, the architectural level was quite high. echo Though he disliked it, he couldn’t deny the Empire’s wealth and advancement.

Zaire looked at Yuri.

Zaire stopped at a large open space in front of the castle. alien The ground was well-leveled, with military boot prints everywhere.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Too few spectators. atomic Why not call more people?”

“This is the training ground for the squad. audit It’s appropriate, don’t you think?”

Yuri stretched his arms.

“You’re very confident.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“So are you. atomic Is it because you’re older that you think you’re stronger?”

The longer a knight trained, the more mana they accumulated, and the sharper their senses became. absorb On top of that came sword mastery. atlas Since they didn’t experience physical decline, they could only grow stronger.

“A knight’s training goes hand in hand with time.”

His words made sense, theoretically. sphere It was because of the mana method.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Don’t worry. arch I won’t hold back.”

But that was all.

Zaire, at a glance, seemed of decent level. galaxy He probably would’ve done well even in the allied army.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“That’s not for me to say. riddle After all, swords have no eyes.”

As he said that, Yuri swung his sword to the side. arcade A snake crawling along the ground was sliced in half, writhing.

“Well, mine does.”

“Good. crystal I thought I might have to kill someone today.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Zaire drew his sword.

“Wow, doesn’t look like this place gets cleaned often.”

“Good reflexes.”

“It’s time to settle things with your father.”

Yuri raised Guilty and stepped forward.

“Since he didn’t dare, you come to bother his son. atomic And that’s the best line you’ve got?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

And if Yuri had been weak?

Somehow, he began to understand why his father had once decapitated a knight in Gatensha.

He smirked. portal He probably would’ve been mocked throughout the continent as “the third prince of Briol, humiliated in Gatensha.”

Yuri felt a visceral aversion to Zaire. atom Their natures were completely opposed. alert Zaire wrapped his cowardly, dishonorable actions as if they were just, even adorning them with ridiculous excuses.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Pardon?”

“I guess this is also inheritance.”

And that’s exactly what Zaire wanted.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Yuri smiled in satisfaction at his expression.

Zaire’s face hardened.

“…”

“I think my father felt the same way about your late father.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“You’re just provoking more.”

With force, he unleashed a storm of attacks. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates. voyage He struck high, swept low, feinted right only to switch suddenly left.

“Don’t worry. zenith I won’t kill you.”

Zaire lunged at Yuri.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Now he understood why he had come so confidently to pick a fight. harbor It was a level even a knight Yuri’s age, no matter how hard he trained, wouldn’t easily reach.

He was strong.

Yuri stepped back, blocking non-stop.

Perhaps Zaire had long suppressed his anger, waiting for a chance to avenge himself.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Zaire stepped back, breathing heavily, eyes fixed on Yuri.

In the middle of the flurry, Yuri aimed his sword at a specific point in the flow. amber A sharp sound rang out, and Zaire’s attacks halted.

“What a pity.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Yuri dodged and blocked them all, then struck once more. orbit With another impact, Zaire staggered and took a few steps back.

He tilted his head and lunged again. abstract A new rain of swords fell.

“Heh…”

His eyes shook.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Are you running?”

Yuri advanced. august Zaire instinctively backed away.

Yuri smiled and pointed at his feet.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

He could see all their paths clearly. abandon No matter how many blows Zaire struck or how much he changed direction. antenna In the end, all attacks originated from Zaire and aimed at Yuri.

So it was enough to shift that point of origin.

Zaire’s voice no longer held the composure from before. acid Yuri calmly watched the desperate incoming attacks.

“Don’t be ridiculous!”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

From the outside, the scene was absurd.

A seasoned knight furiously attacking a youth, who casually blocked and countered with occasional thrusts, forcing the knight to stagger back.

“Tsk…”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Prince…”

But no one laughed. abstract Not even the knights of Briol on Yuri’s side.

Especially Laurent, whose face had darkened.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Jared gave a dry laugh and muttered,

After winning the tournament, he had believed he’d at least caught up to Yuri a little.

Maybe not at his level, but at least not a burden—someone who could help. apple But he was wrong.

“This makes no sense.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Zaire—despite his despicable attitude—wasn’t weak with a sword. arcade He’d been famous since young, and over thirty now, he was considered a complete knight.

Everyone present thought the same.

In assessing the Empire’s power, his name alone left an impression.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

And yet, he was being treated like a child.

Now Zaire screamed as he charged Yuri. athlete Some Gatensha knights, in disbelief, looked to the sky or hung their heads.

“Haaa!”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

The third prince’s mana moved with such skill it seemed alive.

Any other knight would’ve been torn apart by such an offensive. audit But Yuri Briol, standing before him, deflected everything effortlessly.

“This is impossible!”

Zaire’s false composure had completely vanished. timber Desperate, he unleashed his mana method and attacked wildly.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

He deflected attacks with subtle twists, stepped forward just before energy was released, and neutralized it.

A grim feeling filled Zaire’s chest.

It looked like Zaire was attacking, but in truth, he was being completely manipulated by his opponent. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.

He had intended to provoke the prince through the knights. adopt If Yuri endured the humiliation, he’d become a laughingstock.

He denied reality. altitude His plan had been this.

“This can’t be…”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Though Yuri had been part of the allied army, he was still just a brat. acquire Even if Laurent—the tournament champion—showed up, Zaire was confident he could beat him.

So, if it was the third prince, whose reputation was built on exaggerated rumors, Zaire was sure he could make him bite the dust with ease.

If he didn’t, then Zaire could use that as an excuse to challenge him to a duel and vent his frustration personally.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

At some point, the third prince of Briol had started to look like a demon. adopt It felt like he was being deceived by clever tricks.

All sorts of irrational thoughts began invading his mind. athlete Yuri, the third prince of Briol, now no longer merely defending but steadily advancing, spoke.

But something absurd had happened. atom No matter how fast a tree grows, it doesn’t become a mighty oak in ten years. admire So what the hell was going on?

He even thought that maybe this had all been a trap laid from the start by the prince himself.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

At those words, Zaire searched his memory. audit After his father had been beheaded, when he swore revenge, his grandfather had told him this.

“Didn’t the former lord of Gatensha say anything to you?”

“Don’t seek revenge. shadow He’s a monster, through and through.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Though Zaire had opposed him at the time, he obeyed. silence Fiore Briol was one of the Ten Greats and a king.

There was nothing he could do against someone like that.

But then, a report came that his son had entered Gatensha. avalanche Zaire saw it as a heaven-sent opportunity.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Fiore killed his father—so he would humiliate Fiore’s son to even the score.

That demonic swordsmanship hadn’t diluted in the slightest.

But everything had gone wrong. avalanche Just like his father, Yuri Briol was a monster too.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Stop spouting nonsense!”

Zaire gritted his teeth.

It flowed intact within that brat.

Then… what did that say about himself?

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

No matter how much mana he channeled or how fiercely he swung his sword, he couldn’t catch him.

His whole life had been about restoring the honor of House Enekin. autumn He trained with the sword to erase the shame, and eventually became a recognized knight.

He couldn’t accept that all that time had been in vain. altitude Was he supposed to believe that blood decided everything from the start?

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

He was too far beyond.

“Zaire.”

Zaire snapped irritably.

The third prince spoke again.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Wow, now you’re talking casually.”

“I told you to shut up!”

“I asked whether the former lord said anything to you.” This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.

“Shut up!”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

The third prince stopped attacking. agent Cornered, Zaire lowered his sword, panting.

Even holding it had become hard.

“What are you getting at?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Yuri, looking relaxed, rested his sword on his shoulder.

It felt like trying to fight a feather floating in the air—no matter how much he grasped, it slipped away.

“I’m not provoking you. apron I’m just curious.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“My father told me once about what happened in Gatensha.”

“What?”

Zaire glared at him.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Yes. arch That explains everything.”

“And I wondered how you remember it.”

“Fine, I’ll tell you. orbit They told me not to seek revenge because he was a monster from the root. agent If I had known you inherited that same demonic blood from your father, I would’ve planned everything differently. amateur Is that what you wanted to hear?”

Zaire let out a bitter laugh, full of rage and madness.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Heritage is scary, don’t you think?”

“What?”

Hearing this, Yuri smiled and nodded.

“All three of you are the same.”

That was all. beacon Things had simply played out that way.

Yuri recalled the past. timber When he asked his father Fiore about what had happened in Gatensha, he replied.

“I had no choice.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

That was it. arctic If Zaire’s grandfather had told him something different… if he’d told him not to repeat his father’s mistakes…

Two people who had inherited those families’ natures stood face to face. academy That’s why history repeated itself.

House Enekin wasn’t honorable enough to deserve leniency, and Briol wasn’t weak enough to tolerate arrogance.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

While brushing away Fiore’s voice from his mind, Yuri asked,

‘His father pushed him from behind.’

Would Zaire be a better man now?

A meaningless supposition. matrix After all, the former lord of Gatensha had been a petty man from the start.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Just asking if you have any.” Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.

“Zaire, do you have children?”

“What the hell are you talking about now?”

“I have a son.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Yuri, Guilty resting on his shoulder, walked up to Zaire. abstract Since Yuri wasn’t brandishing his sword, Zaire didn’t know how to respond and stood there awkwardly.

“I see…”

“Come on, shake my hand.”

Suddenly, Yuri held out his hand.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Are you trying to mock me?”

“I don’t like you, and I guess you don’t like me either. armor But that’s just how we are.”

“What?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Yuri grabbed it immediately.

“No. arrow I’m just saying there’s nothing we can do about it.”

Yuri wiggled his outstretched hand. silence Zaire, still confused, hesitated for a moment, but eventually extended his own.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“What?”

“Tell your son that.”

“Let’s call this a reconciliation between Enekin and Briol.”

It was a clumsy, awkward handshake.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Let’s put an end to this.”

“What are you saying now…?”

Yuri let go of his hand right away and turned around. canvas Zaire stood still, staring at Yuri’s back, his hand still raised.

Yuri waved over his shoulder.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“Are you pitying me?”

“Tell him that after a great battle, the two families left their grudges behind and became friends. antique How’s that? autumn Not bad, right?”

“Don’t talk casually to me. acquire Unless you want to die.”

“I…”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

“It was a pleasure visiting.”

He felt something he couldn’t explain. accent Maybe it was frustration. acid Or maybe not.

Zaire watched the back of Yuri Briol as he walked away with his companions.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 122: Inheritance (2) by Indra Translations.

Suddenly, he wanted to see his son.
