Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1)
Joseph entered the office earlier than usual and opened the curtain with familiar movements.
A dark dawn where the darkness has not yet disappeared.
When I open the curtain, I see a familiar scene.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Anyone who wants to embark on a journey should leave Soara already to reach their next destination before sunset.
“I should already be there.”
A city covered in white snow.
Joseph crossed his arms and stepped back to look at the scene outside the window, as the sight of Soara made him feel cold just by looking at it.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“…”
I could have given Vlad, who was leaving, a mission or arbitrarily set a destination, but Joseph did not do so deliberately.
Although I don’t know where the destination is.
This is because I thought that a child who had lived his entire life following orders from others needed to experience moving with his own thoughts at least once.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Although he will leave Soara in the form of exile, Vlad will repeat an ancient tradition of the north.
It was one of the ancient traditions that could only be found in my grandfather’s generation, not even in my father’s generation.
A knight embarking on a journey thinking only of his own honor.
“A banneret knight… holding his own standard. matrix It’s truly a rare sight to see after so long.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
A knight born of Soara and raised by Bayezid.
You can’t see it because it’s too far away, but there must be a knight out there right now with his own flag.
In the distance, the gates of Soara were opening to welcome this day.

“…He’s not coming.”
Vlad, who had his head held high until the end, watched as the castle door opened with Noir.
His name was Vlad of Soara.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“Why is this guy, who used to live outside, making such a fuss because it’s cold?”
Neighing—
In the cold winter, when neither merchants nor travelers moved, the only person waiting for the castle door to open was Vlad.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Now was the time to find our original intention and face the snowstorm with a determined attitude.
Noir, who had already grown accustomed to the comfortable stable, was annoyed by the current situation of going out into the cold, but now the good times had also ended for him.
And that attitude would be one that not only Noir but also Vlad should remember.
“Let’s go.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
The small flag hanging on the back of the saddle began to flutter slowly in the cold wind.
A black horse starts to move with a slight push.
“…”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
There were dreams I dreamed here.

Vlad, who was stepping from atop Noir, thought that maybe now would be a good time to leave.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“Captain! altitude Wait a second!”
My goal was to wield a sword, and my dream is to become a knight.
Vlad, who was recalling old memories, heard a voice calling him from behind and turned his head.
But now that I had achieved everything I dreamed of in this city, it was time to look up and see the wider world so that I could move forward.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
A man running through the street at dawn with the loud sound of horse hooves.
“Oh my. abandon I barely made it.”
“Let’s go together!”
It was Goethe, the caretaker of Bayezid’s stable.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Vlad smiled discreetly as he looked at Goethe, who stuck out his tongue beside him.
“At this point, it’s still not too late. beacon You haven’t even left Soara yet, have you?”
“You’re late.”

Indeed, it was the attitude of a former swindler.
“Did you even consider following me?”
Although Goethe was out of breath, he didn’t stop to respond.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Goethe puffed out his chest and spoke to Vlad confidently.
“I guess it’s unfair.”
Investment always involves risk.
“I’ve invested in you for a long time, so I can’t just waste it here.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
And Goethe knew well that people like him, who were at the bottom rung, didn’t easily find even dangerous opportunities worth risking their lives for.
With little at stake, Goethe had to take risks to achieve big gains that would change his life.
“I saw you do it.”
“Did I hear you bought a boat for a friend named Harven? atomic Shall I look after that later too?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“But where are you going?”
Because he already knew that Vlad was a dishonest person.
It was just the usual grumpy response, but Goethe simply nodded.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
The current Vlad was created through two contracts.
In response to Goethe’s question about the destination, Vlad took a deep breath and looked at the white field in front of him.
“…I haven’t decided exactly.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
One is Joseph’s contract to offer his faith along with his sword.
“I’m thinking of going east for now.”
And another contract with the voice to seek his name.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
And the voice said it had seen that tree.
A maple swaying in the wind that blew silently along with a vast wheat field.
There was a world that showed me for the last time a voice I can no longer hear.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“There’s something you need to find there.”
Now only the remnants of the voice remained, only a faint shadow could be seen, but Vlad was the only one who could recognize the last traces of the voice.
In response, Vlad raised the sheath and looked at Alicia’s amber stone embedded at the end of the handle.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
A swindler and a knight were leaving Soara.
The knight, burdened by duty, left behind the object of his oath of loyalty and moved forward to fulfill another contract.
“Let’s go now.”

“…He’s not coming.”
What bid them farewell was a cup of wine held by a nobleman and a pillowcase soaked by a red-haired girl with the sadness of farewell.

This area, located in the northern part of the central region, was ruled by the Dalmatia family and was a territory mainly dedicated to barley cultivation and forestry, taking advantage of the cold climate.

Dobrechi

“What are these people doing waiting for barley seeds to be planted?”
And what does it mean that they are mainly dedicated to barley cultivation and forestry?
It meant that it was a poor territory without any significant industry.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“Stop making excuses in front of me!”
“Although I stationed soldiers and protected them all night, when morning comes…”
And, as befitting its circumstances, Dobrechi was also a poor territory without a city worthy of its name.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Baron Dalmatia, who was watching this, seemed to have a fever and kept fanning his hands to relieve his anger.
The knight commander speaks extensively about the failure.
“That’s right. alert My lord.”
“…Don’t they know? arch If we can’t even sow seeds this season, we’ll all starve next spring.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“But soldiers alone…”
Dobrechi, whose only support was the dense trees and barley cultivation, could not simply ignore the current issues.
Poor land and cold weather. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.
“They’re the ones who know!”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Any lord would have no choice but to be angry if they saw a knight who could not react flexibly to an incident.
“Oh, my head…”
“If you don’t have enough troops, at least the residents of the territory can chain you up! agent It seems I’m going to starve right now, so what’s the problem?”
Baron Dalmatia, whose chubby cheeks were trembling, threw everything he could find around him and began to scold the knight commander who had come to report.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
The Dalmatia family was a poor family that could only have knights like this.
“Gather all the troops you have and protect the barley fields! legend I’m sure that’s what the forest monsters are doing!”
But what can you do?
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“Understood. alpha My lord.”
Winter was the season when monsters also had nothing to eat, when fruits disappeared from trees and grass to chew on.
Winter is not the season when only humans starve.
I don’t know why they only eat the seeds they sow in the field, but the important thing is to prevent this situation.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
There was a scene visible to Baron Dalmatia’s eyes as he approached the frustrated window.
In the empty office, Baron Dalmatia sighed.
“Should I at least hire mercenaries for this?”
The forest of Dobrechi densely surrounds the territory.

Although it had been greatly expanded to clear the land after the Dalmatia family became lords, the forest that had been there before the Dalmatia family was established still seemed dark even though it was noon.
“Pepper, salt, jerky, what’s this?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“Just go to any church and register. armor Priest Andreas wrote it.”
Vlad, crouching in the forest rubbing against a tree branch, looked at the paper Goethe had taken out and responded seriously.
In a dark forest as the sun begins to set.
“Pilgrim Certificate.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Vlad’s hand, which had been rubbing the tree branch, suddenly stopped at Goethe’s question.
“Ahhh. shadow He did. acquire I’m sorry.”
“Why not do it in Soara?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“Alright, alright, I get it.”
“But how can you bring all these precious and expensive things without even bringing a flint? afford I don’t understand that.”
If the church in Soara had presented this certificate, it wouldn’t have been necessary to bring it here, but the issue was that Vlad had been so offended that he couldn’t even dare to speak to the church.
Goethe rummaged through his luggage again, avoiding Vlad’s stern gaze, but gritted his teeth when he still couldn’t find the item he was looking for.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Of course, you were busy.
“I was busy in various ways last night.”
“…”
Vlad’s hands, which had momentarily stopped at Goethe’s angry words, began to move quickly again.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“At least I brought mine!”
“But you only brought one flint.”
Because popular people are usually busier at night.

Remnants of flints rolling in pieces.
Goethe, irritated, pointed to the debris around Vlad.

All of them were brought by Goethe.
A man named Vlad was not so inexperienced as to not be able to even start a fire.
“Power is good too. attic You destroyed everything and ate it.”
Rather, one could say he was more accustomed to this kind of thing because he had lived a hard life.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
However, as a result, Goethe broke all the flints he brought and ate them, and he himself couldn’t even bring a flint, which was essential for camping, so there was no way he could have anything to say.
“There’s no such thing as bad luck. alert Are they all defective?”
The mistake was clear to anyone who could see it, so in this case, there would be no choice but to sit silently and fan the flames.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“Why are you stopping? wizard Aren’t you going to light the fire?”
“Hey.”
Goethe opened his eyes when he saw Vlad suddenly throwing away the branch he was rubbing, but Vlad had already picked up the sheath of his sword instead of the branch.
“Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
No matter how deep the relationship was, Vlad was a knight.
Goethe’s slightly trembling voice was evidence.
Vlad holding the sword would surely be completely different from when he was rubbing the tree branch before.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Vlad spat harshly on the snowy ground, silently lifted the sheath of his sword, and stood up.
“Alright.”
“Captain, I’m sorry…”
“I’ll rub it. admire Captain.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
At Vlad’s sudden words, Goethe began to look around unknowingly.
A winter forest where darkness begins to fall.
“I’ll borrow some embers.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
Among the forest came a crunching and the giggles of men.
“If you had noticed, you should have fled. avalanche What were you stretching for?”
“Wow, looks like you have sharp ears.”
A group of men who seemed to be around twenty years old. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.

“If you sell something that looks good anywhere, you’ll get the right price.”
“Where are you from, young master? audit If you tell us about your parents, we can hand you over for a reasonable price.”
Traveling in winter wasn’t just about being careful with the cold and the monsters.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
A group of just two moving.
“Eh?”
One of them was a young chicken that looked freshly molted, and to the eyes of the bandits, there was no prey as easy as this.
“Brothers. abandon Let’s borrow some fire.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
However, instead of feeling intimidated, the blond youth who greeted the bandits simply smiled cheerfully as if everything had gone well.
They were bandits with absurd and fierce expressions and high weapons, but they fell silent at the sight of the object reflected in Vlad’s cloak.
“What’s this crazy guy saying now…?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
“Give me everything you have. galaxy You guys.”
Shiny plate armor.
There were items there that were difficult to use for a simple child.
A wild smile began to form on Vlad’s face.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
One thing I decided to do after leaving Soara.
And now the young blond, who had finally ventured into the world, was as hungry as when he was a child.
Old Vlad was a hungry and always longing man.
“I’ll take care of everything.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 102: Watchman in the barley field (1) by Indra Translations.
It was a decision to return to my roots.
