Rene and Gilles are persecuted by the authorities in connection with the murder of the Chief Inquisitor of the kingdom. They are forced to hide. By coincidence, Rene learns that he owns the sword of the demon Gaborim, endowed with fantastic power. The seal of Gaborim on the blade of the sword indicates that this sword was forged in another world.
Walking away from the chase, Rene and Gilles accidentally meet Professor Fernando Sigüenza. He successfully invested the gold taken from the monastery and bought an excellent house in Vendome. The Professor, a jack-of-all-trades and also a swindler, makes fake documents for Rene with the appropriate seals. The Prelate becomes a Spanish Hidalgo: Baron Rene Alvarez de Calahorra.
Rene knows that the king of France is obsessed with a persecution mania and therefore does not live in Paris, but constantly travels, accompanied by the court, to various castles, sometimes even stopping in a camping tent in the middle of the field.
Rene also learns that the king has a new favorite. Her name is Countess Eleanor de Oloron. The king literally lost his head from her. The Professor told Rene that the soul of the Marquise had moved into the body of the young Countess. But the connection between the soul and the body is very fragile. The Prelate understands that the Marquise de Montey is close to her goal: she will become queen and rule alone.
Rene goes to the king's headquarters under the guise of a Spanish aristocrat, and he successfully succeeds in this role. Gilles and the professor follow him. Rene skillfully enters into the confidence of the head of the guard and gets a place in the guest tent. The next day, the royal deer hunt is to take place. The Countess de Oloron understands perfectly why Rene appeared. She breaks away from the king while chasing a deer and leads her pursuer into the depths of the forest. Rene is ready for any surprises.
Rene fights with the demoness and wins, the restless soul of the Marquise leaves the body of Eleanor. Suddenly, Gaborim, the owner of the sword with the Flaming Blade, appears. From now on, the sword will be kept where it was forged: in the Other World. Eleanor faints, after which she remembers nothing. Rene, as a savior, brings her to the king, and tells an imaginary story about robbers. The king rewards Rene with possessions in the foothills of the Pyrenees and a decent sum of money.
Rene is disappointed in life and his real father, the king. He can no longer stay in France, Spain is waiting for him. The adventures of Rene de Chaperon, and now the Spanish hidalgo-baron, continue.
