Chapter 444
Episode 444: We Will Be Blessed (1)
“Fuck you!”
“Ouch!”
“Huh!”
Deathbringer threw away the unclean sword with an obscene curse.
There was no particular reason. The only thing that annoyed me was that there was no harvest even after searching for two weeks.
Or, the reason for this anger could be that a guy who was fearlessly trying to molest someone came into sight.
“Fuck really….”
“Huh huh.”
However, I can’t say that I have too much anger towards him. His search wasn’t just about walking around, it was about interrogating people and generously using items he obtained from the magic tower.
“This is what it takes…”
I didn’t see anything through the negative inspection, nor did I find anything through the items. At this point, I couldn’t even tell if it was a matter of luck or skill.
“under.”
Still, it seems like both sides had an influence.
Deathbringer didn’t want to think of the latter as the only problem, so he blamed his own bad luck. It’s also true that luck plays a big role in finding people, so it wasn’t just self-justification.
The Deathbringer’s hand pulled out the unclean sword that was stuck in the wall. The person who was almost molested has long since run away in fear when the knife flies and the molester is neutralized.
“Hehehehe.”
Instead, the molester, who had been forcefully pinned to the wall with a sword, began to slide down the wall as soon as the sword was pulled out.
I didn’t put a knife to my neck, I just hit the scarf around my neck, so I didn’t know why I was so scared.
“hey.”
Of course, since the knife was stuck next to the hair branch, my heart should feel a bit chilly. However, the people in the back alleys have to be this small to use it.
Deathbringer kicked the collapsed human and spoke to him. If it weren’t for him, he would have committed a crime, so I didn’t feel sorry for him. Pow! The fallen one made a sound.
“Have you seen anything suspicious?”
This bastard won’t wake up. It’s frustrating.
Deathbringer squatted down slightly to be at eye level and swung the unholy sword in his hand.
“If it’s suspicious…”
“Anything.” “Have you ever seen anything that seems a bit strange?”
However, the sword, which was spinning around, at some point lightly placed a point on the bridge of the criminal’s nose. The extremely sharp blade allows the Deathbringer to cut the skin and burst a drop of blood with just the slightest movement of the wrist.
“Even if this is strange….”
“I’m talking about demons, star-like worshipers, and other things that confuse me by causing trouble by cheating on me. “Do I really need to talk this long?”
“That uh. ah! There is this. “There are people in the back alleys these days—”
“They’re gradually disappearing?”
“Yes yes.”
“I know that. I don’t know the inside story. “Do you know?”
I don’t know. I realized right away that people were going missing one by one, but it was the same thing that no information had been found on that side.
Deathbringer waited for the criminal’s next words with zero anticipation. After the conversation is over, you should take it back to the security station. Such thoughts were a bonus.
“That’s it.”
“I don’t know? “If you don’t know—”
As expected, the other person hesitated, and Deathbringer coaxed him to finish by saying, “It’s okay.”
“It worked!”
The unclean sword that was being retrieved at the waist shook slightly.
“what?”
“Bar night. “I saw a human with long hair eating the same person.”
“…People ate people? “You didn’t see it wrong?”
“It’s real! “I saw it with my own eyes!”
Man ate man. After a moment of contemplation, the Deathbringer put down the unholy sword.
“Tell me in detail.”
What I wanted was the white crow, but since the rapid increase in missing people is highly likely to be related to the devil, this is not bad. The Deathbringer’s eyes sparkled as he finally caught the big fish.
* * *
The warchief gave the snake, which had grown as large as a mountain, a necklace made of woven thread. It was sent by Akata, who had escaped from selling yarn at the top and had become a master enough to have an apprentice under his command.
【It suits you very well.】
[Uhehe.]
Of course, Sangun smiled without dignity at the gift the child sent and the continuous compliments. When someone sees it, they say, ‘Is that something alive?’ It looked like he was about to ask a question like this.
[I wish I had told you not to laugh like that.]
[Oh, please look at my ancestor. A gundy given to me by a child who left home.]
[What are you talking about? When you laugh, take care of your body.]
[No one is watching anyway, so you have to take care of your body… Ah ah! No body biting! No body biting!!]
However, next to the snake was a turtle that was slightly smaller than him. The huge monster, which shook the ground with each step, bit down on the snake’s body. Even though the mountain army cried out that I was going to die, the biting continued and eventually the warchief had to step in.
【Both of you, please stop.】
[I didn’t even do anything!] [
Are you
asking me again?]
[Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ssect?
] You really have to leave now!】
When Sangun tried to turn his head, the chieftain screamed. It was a result of us becoming too close, but fortunately there were no people around. Sangun and Yukgui also adjusted their postures while shaking their heads.
[But you. Now you’re telling me that your hair is getting thicker?]
【…I apologize if you were offended. However, if you delay any longer than this, the magic tower lord will be waiting for you, and you will only gain a reputation as a being who is perceptive at important moments.】 [
…Anyway, you are really good at talking. Yes, I’m leaving.]
[Oh, I’m leaving.]
[Okay. Just try to drop me and I will kill you.]
[A person who cannot go far alone without you always threatens me…]
[Have you finished speaking?]
[Ah. The best and unwavering means of transportation is leaving now. I don’t know.]
Still, how did the two of them leave? The warchief was relieved that he had succeeded in dispatching the two men, and watched the snake and turtle gradually starting to move away.
The places they go are full of traces of destruction and new growth.
【Be healthy―! Please come back!】
[Come on.]
[Great Chief!! I’ll come back and see my Demon King’s castle!!]
【No, don’t look at that one…!!】
And in that moment, the vitality was overflowing.
In front of them, even the desert will eventually have no choice but to become a forest.
* * *
“An ancient beast… So the mountain army and the six ghosts came out?”
“yes. “I got a call from White Wind, saying it was amazing how the desert turned into grass.”
“Huh.”
More than two weeks have passed since the second expansion zone was attacked and damaged.
In the meantime, my head exploded with magic, and the division of wizards, including the newly joined archmage, reached its limit, finally yielding results, and we moved to the second expansion district. As a bonus, the missing white crow had not been found yet, but new news was coming from elsewhere. Like right now.
“yes.”
“This will be of great help….”
“They were probably aware of us as well.”
I mechanically shoveled the soup into my mouth while listening to the Archmage and the fairy’s exclamations. In the meantime, his eyes are fiercely focused on the book.
As it was not long before departure, I couldn’t take my eyes off the book even for a moment.
“Adventurer, eat this too!”
“Okay, thank you.”
In the end, the girl who couldn’t help but put pickled vegetables on my spoon.
No, if you look at the truth, it wasn’t even at the level of something that was done just once. The girl started taking care of me like this five days after I went into prank mode. It was something I was so thankful for that brought tears to my eyes.
“Adventurer! “We also have pickled fish here!”
“Yes, Inquisitor, thank you too.”
However, this ugly adult has no time to spare right now… Although it was embarrassing to be taken care of, he couldn’t refuse it either.
After all, out of 24 hours, people were bound to end up like this if they spent 6 hours sleeping, 2 hours training, 2 hours eating, and the remaining 14 hours studying. This is something that really drives people crazy.
“I wonder how I lived during the CSAT….”
“SAT?”
“no.”
I think I lived like this for almost half a year instead of 2 weeks during the college entrance exam, but really, how did I survive back then?
I shook my head slightly in response to the girl’s question and resumed spooning where I had stopped. Then the Inquisitor and the girl’s eyes lit up to find a new side dish to hand to me.
“Adventurer! “Eat this too!”
“Oh.”
And it was Isarncol who took the next batsman position.
“It was freshly opened this morning!”
The girl put the seasoned vegetables on my spoon. I started singing the song “I want to eat vegetables, I want to eat vegetables” a week ago, and the girl managed to make it all by herself.
It is said that they borrowed the knowledge and force of Berserk and Deathbringer to collect edible plants and then selected only the delicious ones… When I first received it, I was so moved that I even shed tears. It was quite comical to see everyone jumping up and down in panic.
“Okay, thank you.”
Anyway, maybe it’s because I’m a black-haired beast – it’s only half black now – but now, a week later, that emotion has been greatly diluted. So the effect is not very good.
The greeting from my soul flew up into the sky along with the memory containing the magic circle.
“Why does he become less intelligent as each day passes?”
“Please correct me, Tei-kun. “He is not retarded, he is besotted.”
“Hey adventurer, are you listening?”
“Do you think he will listen to you now?”
“…Stop the verbal abuse. “It’s not like he wanted it to be like that.”
But wait a minute. I think the Archmage has also subtly acknowledged that my intelligence has decreased.
Hey, I’m just overloaded, not my intelligence has decreased?!
“…I’m listening to everything.”
“Look!”
“Were you listening?”
“Aren’t you becoming too childish while playing with the older kids?”
“Hehe, it’s just a joke.”
I felt a deep sense of betrayal when I saw the Archmage who joined in making fun of me. Everyone is really great.
“…I said departure was tomorrow.”
“I see.”
“after. I get it.”
It worked, and thanks to that, I lost my appetite. I glanced at my half-empty bowl of soup and then put down my spoon.
The Inquisitor girl, who was having a snowball fight over whose turn it would be to serve me side dishes, let out an “Ah” sound at the same time.
“Are you leaving already?”
“I feel bloated.”
When I study, I crave sugar, but if I stuff myself too much, I feel bad. Of course, perhaps because my body changed, that tendency has faded a lot, but… any body is useless in the face of stress.
Feeling a bit of a headache, I grabbed my book and went out to the training room. The idea was to actually use all the magic circles one last time before sortie. I guess it’s better to use it in practice rather than repeating it in your head.
“Are you here?”
“…I was wondering why I couldn’t see your face at the dinner table, so you were here?”
But when I went to the training ground—it was said to be an empty lot—there were Berserk and Crusher among the passengers.
The area nearby was messy and there were bruises and dust marks on each other’s bodies, so it seemed like they had been having a chat once.
“It was the last sparring to learn the new weapon.”
“I kept trying to add it up, but you never know.”
Of course, that does not mean that their actions can be dismissed as a simple desire to win or fight. Their actions, which at first glance seemed to follow a hobby, could be seen as final preparations for a decisive battle.
Well, it wouldn’t be true if the two’s warlike personalities didn’t have an influence on this method.
“I guess so. Still, take care of your meal. “I don’t feel strong until I don’t eat.”
“I was planning on going to eat after this was over.”
“Don’t worry. “We will take better care of you than you.”
Actually, the two of them eat well enough that there is no need to worry. I scratched the back of my head, remembering the three people who had eaten 40 servings with the Inquisitor.
“But where is Mystiltain?”
“I heard that if you are a money demon, you will go to your subordinates. “I heard that it might be the last time, so I’m going to eat and sleep there today.”
“is it.”
Commandment said he would sleep instead of eating, and Lord Sapphire and
Sir Zrya were also forced to adjust their physical condition… Are they all preparing for the final fight, except for Deathbringer, who has not been in for several days in the name of investigation?
Only then did it dawn on me that we were really approaching the last moment. After today, I leave. I felt dizzy.
