Chapter 57: The new Soara (1)
The sound of bones and tendons being cut was awakening the quiet alley.
That sound, along with the unidentifiable bones hanging all over the shop, made the atmosphere of the place grim.
A street in an alley illuminated with the colors of the night.
Crack! altitude Crack!
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“Is the owner here?”
The owner of the butcher shop, who had been cutting meat for a while, frowned as he looked at the two men crowding in front of the store.
Two men entered the butcher shop, pushing aside the meat hanging all around.
“…What?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“Did your parents teach you that?”
When the boy, who looked freshly out of his teens, spoke informally, the owner, who seemed very indifferent, spat out the bone he was chewing on and growled.
“How can a bastard without a brain speak so rudely to an adult?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
The owner’s face seemed to stiffen a bit as he saw the boy’s blond hair that didn’t match the atmosphere of the place and the note with tiny letters.
Shrugging, Vlad removed the hood he was wearing and handed a small note to the owner.
“It’s been a while since someone came here looking for their parents.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“Why would you come to the butcher shop looking for someone? antenna We don’t sell people here.”
“No, I was wondering if you’ve seen him.”
“Why these people?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
He’s here.
“I used to be a resident here, but I recently came back. agent Was this place always a butcher shop?”
Vlad smiled as he watched the owner pound the meat forcefully.
“Really?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
The name of another boss who dominated the back alley emerged, but Vlad simply smiled as if he found it ridiculous.
“Ask that to the Black Bear. antique I have permission.”
The butcher. atlas The Black Bear.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
He couldn’t intimidate the boy with just that kind of reputation anymore.
Vlad leaned over the counter and brought his face closer to the butcher shop owner’s.
Although it seemed dangerous for a boy to approach someone who was cutting meat with a knife, each action of the boy carried an unknown weight.
“Then I’ll ask later.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“What is?”
“But seriously, it’s quite interesting.”
The owner, staring directly into the boy’s blue eyes, swallowed saliva unconsciously.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“If you want to survive, buy something. portal If not, leave right now…”
At first, he thought he was just a spoiled kid, but suddenly he was influencing the atmosphere of this place with just a few words.
“How did you know the name on the note was a person’s?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Only the sound of the chain link that Vlad had just pushed could be heard in silence.
The boy’s question stopped the descending knife’s movement.
A strange silence hung over the butcher shop.

“…”
“Learning to read here isn’t easy.”
Clang-

“I came here to ask, so give me an answer.”
Or more precisely, at the dark-skinned man standing behind the boy.
The man who had just closed the shop door.
The owner, still holding his meat knife, stared at the boy in front of him.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
The corner of Vlad’s lip curved as he looked at the owner, who gazed back with tense eyes.

“Business here ends today. silence Otar.”
“Damn it!”
The owner quickly brandished the knife he held, but Vlad had already anticipated it and simply tilted his head.
It was a sharp move, unusual for a simple butcher, but the boy was now an entity that had risen to the level of a knight.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
The man who officially served as the deputy commander-in-chief of the guard. arctic He drew an axe from his belt.
“Understood.”
The dark-skinned man, Otar.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“…Where did you come from?”
Dim, flickering light in the darkness.
As the lights from outside were obscured by the closed door, inside the butcher shop, only the candles tremblingly lit by the trembling owner remained.
“Who are you?! absorb Where did you come from?!”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
It was the color of the back alley.
The lights cast deep shadows on the boy’s face.
“That’s what I want to ask.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Inside the tightly closed butcher shop, the sounds of meat and bones being cut still echoed.
Crack! apple Crack!
The only difference from before was that mixed in were the screams of someone.

Vlad sat across from a street vendor who was about to close up shop and picked up a skewer.
In the back alley, just before dawn.
“Take one too.”
“Got it.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
And Jorge’s dagger, which now only Vlad could wield.
Otar’s bloodied axe.

“When did a guy like that show up?”
The appropriate tools for the back alley had now finished their day’s work in the hands of their owners.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
After all, regardless of the outcome, only Jack had accepted the man with different-colored skin into the back alley.
“…Well, ever since that day, he changed a lot.”
Though Otar had been a subordinate of Jack, he didn’t want to criticize his former boss’s final appearance.

He was only a middleman collector and claimed that the slave traders would know more details.
The man disguised as a butcher said:
“Well, we’ll figure out the details with the higher-ups.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
He hadn’t thought that such a light matter would have such deep roots.
“Even if we confirm the identity, will this be enough…?”
He hadn’t heard anything about Anna, but in the end, she had been secretly selling people in the corner of the back alley all this time.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Light and darkness, those who are excluded and those who shine.
The boy still stood on the dividing line between them.
Perhaps, if it weren’t for Vlad’s existence, as always, this incident would have simply been considered one of the many that happen in the back alley and would have been buried.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
From the end of the alley, a dark-skinned boy was running hurriedly towards them.
The familiar voice of the boy reached Vlad’s ears, who had been lost in thought.
“Vlad! aluminum Brother!”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Vlad placed a skewer in the mouth of the boy running towards him eagerly.
“I’m not going anywhere.”
“Phew… Phew… Ah!”

“Did you understand what I asked you?”
It was the fair reward the boy should receive.
“Uh… I heard there are kids who saw her.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
As if birds heard the words during the day and mice heard them at night, rumors in the back alley always reached the ears and eyes of young children.
Vlad and Otar nodded at each other.
Indeed.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“They saw the girl Vlad is looking for. arctic Was her name Anna?”
“What did they see?”
“That’s right.”
Ned replied with an excited expression as he bit into the skewer Vlad had given him.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Instead of answering, Ned offered his palm to Vlad.
“Someone said they saw the girl get on a stagecoach for the first time about a month ago. alien But it was a bit strange.”
“…You did a good job raising your little brother.”
“What was strange?”

“The strange thing was…”
“Hmm.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“What?”
The little mouse that had been sniffing around the alley brought the exact information Vlad wanted.
“It was said that all the women who boarded that carriage were pregnant.”
At Vlad’s request, Ned began to speak.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
To others, Ned’s words might sound strange, but to Vlad, they evoked something.
“They say all the women who boarded the carriage had bulging bellies. arch Isn’t that strange? palette Someone is buying pregnant women who can’t even work.”
“…All of them were pregnant?”
“······”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
When Ned asked if he could have more to eat, Vlad simply nodded backward without saying a word.
Although Otar asked with an increasingly serious expression, Vlad couldn’t snap out of his thoughts.
“Buying and selling pregnant women?”
“What’s wrong? anchor Is there a problem?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
‘······It can’t be.’
Finding out that Anna was pregnant was already shocking, but accepting that there were people buying and selling pregnant women in the back alleys was even harder to swallow.
But those people were here.
It made no sense and was morally wrong.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
[It’s always best to pay attention to bad feelings.]
Though he wanted to think otherwise, the warning from the voice in his mind reminded him of an incident that took place on a winter day.
There was a woman crying in the middle of a snowy camp, searching for her son.
A sinister premonition swept through for a moment.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Vlad could only nod at what the voice said.
A son who hadn’t even been born yet.
[We should be prepared. matrix It can’t be that bad.]
There was something that the boy always noticed in Joseph’s behavior.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“…There’s nothing wrong with being prepared.”
The memories of that winter day still lingered vividly in Vlad’s mind.
The morning sun was rising, but to Vlad’s eyes, it still felt as if a shadow loomed deep in the back alley.
His attitude was always one of preparing for the worst.

“I discovered a suspicious trend.”
“Oh… really?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“I didn’t expect you to ask so soon.”
“No, I’m investigating Jack One-Armed.”

“I told you to rest… I guess you didn’t listen when I told you to take a break.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“······”
“You should rest, shouldn’t you?”
Bordan awkwardly smiled as he stroked his chubby chin.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Why Joseph would growl every time he saw Bordan.
Vlad finally understood.

“Can’t it wait a day or two? wizard Is it that urgent?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“It seems so.”
Although Bordan seemed to say this with a smile, Vlad already understood what he meant.
“Think it over. wizard Are you sure it’s an imminent crisis?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“This was my precious day off…”
Vlad’s determined attitude finally made Bordan, who realized he was the only one who would solve the problem, sigh.
“Maybe you should go see the mayor.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Vlad approached Bordan, who was sighing deeply.
“They’re coming both up and down… I can’t avoid it… They should come in one or two more days.”
But there was no paradise in the place he escaped to.
After preparing for a delay, Bordan went to the window in frustration. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.

The flag hanging in the middle of the procession bore a familiar emblem.

“How have you been?”

“It seems there are problems.”
“······”
But when Joseph’s eyes met Vlad’s, the latter only returned a subtle look, as if he had something to say.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.

“Let me check first.”
With the possibility that there might be something suspicious among Joseph’s belongings, Jager began to search the room.
While servants hurriedly brought down Joseph’s belongings, the group followed the mayor’s directions and headed to the very center of the town hall, where his office was located.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“There’s nothing suspicious. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors. action He wouldn’t walk around with something like that, would he?”
Although the mayor’s response, who was smiling uncomfortably, was puzzling, Jager continued to search the room without saying a word.
“······”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Faced with that calm reaction, the mayor of Soara simply withdrew without insisting.
The mayor’s reputation was not important at all.
For Jager, Joseph’s safety was paramount.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“Thank you.”
“Thank you for your work.”
The two men, who knew what the gratitude meant, simply wondered about each other.
While Jager searched the room, Joseph turned his head to look at Vlad.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“······I’m not sure if I should bother you with this.”
“What do you mean? arena Tell me.”
That was enough, considering they were in the same situation.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“I would like to receive support in one way or another, but I guess I have to talk directly to the mayor…”
He knew that procedure was important because of what he had seen and heard in the Bayezid family.
Vlad hesitated at Joseph’s words.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Joseph was a nobleman, but his lineage did not guarantee authority.
And right next to Joseph was a person with such authority.
A suitable position for him. album Only then could Joseph have authority.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Joseph smiled as he looked at the boy studying the time and situation for himself and not acting recklessly.
“That’s a good judgment.”
Even if he stood there not knowing what to do because of the discomfort Joseph gave him.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
With Jager’s nod, Joseph began to walk naturally toward the center of the office.
“I don’t see anything suspicious, Mr. matrix Joseph.”
He was proud to have taught someone who always considered the worst situation.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
“The scenery here is quite nice too.”
Watching Joseph walk to the mayor’s desk under the afternoon sun, Vlad remembered the office in Sturma.
“······”
He was always sitting where he should be, looking at Vlad.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Naturally, Soara’s mayor stepped back due to the confident spirit shown by Joseph.
“…no no. ability Mr. sphere Joseph, maybe.”
Joseph, lounging in the chair that only the mayor could sit in, smiled as he looked at the landscape outside the window.
“I guess I’ll have to replace the chair.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
The former mayor of Soara, who had finally realized what was going on, turned pale, but no one looked at him.
“Now don’t worry about that and just say it.”
It was the air created by Joseph.
It seemed that the air in the room was changing.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 57: The new Soara (1) by Indra Translations.
Vlad looked straight ahead with an empty gaze.
“Talk to the new mayor of Soara.”
