040. Awakening (6)

Zeke took out the recording crystal ball from his bosom and held it up.

The shape of a button attached to a small bead.

Following his hand, the union leader’s eyes followed.

‘That’s mine! Mine!!! Give it to me!!!’

The head of the union stretched out his hand softly with the bread on his neck.

back

“Keuk… … !”

Click.

When Zeke pressed the small button on the crystal ball, a man’s voice was reproduced along with a crackling ambient sound.

– Ahh. will it be this? How are you, boss? I always have a grateful heart for the guild leader who always works hard for the empire. I’d like to express my gratitude a little more, but since the crystal ball has a finite amount of time, let’s get down to business quickly. hahahaha.

All I could hear was a man’s cheerful voice.

– You shouldn’t tell anyone about the information I’m about to give you. Of course, I’m trusting the president and telling him.

He got to the point right away, as if whispering softly.

“Hoo.”

Zeke was excited to see what interesting stories he would tell.

– Do you know the region of Eulsur? Where there is one man who is a baronet. I saw a miserable sight. An anomaly was observed where the sun did not rise.

‘Eulsur region? It’s the first name I’ve heard of. I’ll have to check it out sometime. Is magic involved?’

Zeke listened to the recorded voice and touched his lips.

Certainly, it is not an ordinary phenomenon that the sun does not rise in certain areas.

– It is said that knights from Ramielli Academy came forward. I think they’ll be fine since they’re veterans. All you have to do is follow the orders, and I’ll be safe.

‘What is it, man? Said it was delivered in secret, but knights from Ramiel Academy already came out? Something doesn’t seem right… … . Or is there even a secret knights from Ramielli?’

– What am I going to do without Ramielli? This is all we can do to pass on information to the head of the union.

Then the man sniffed.

– Dinner must be fun tonight. The smell of soup is wafting up here. It must have been made of hares. Is there beer too? hahahaha.

Then the man’s voice suddenly lost its pleasant tone, and he spoke as if he were aware.

– hahahaha. Keep in mind. union president. It’s three months later.

Piik-

The voice recorded in the crystal ball ended like that.

‘Is this the end?’

Information about the weaknesses of those in power

Zeke, who remembered something like a secret mission,

Contrary to what he expected, he looked at the union leader suspiciously.

“What is this about?”

I relaxed slightly on the bread that had been stabbing my throat so that the head of the union could open his mouth.

He looked at Zeke with trembling eyes and said.

“Keck. Ha, this information was secretly passed on to me by an adventurer!”

“It is a lie.”

cook!

“Tell me. What is it?”

“Keeck!”

Now, the pressure from Zeke is on a different level than before.

The feeling of being on the verge of death.

The teeth collide with each other.

The head of the union shuddered and shook his thick flesh.

But there was a strong will in his eyes.

“That, that’s all!”

Zeke raised his eyebrows.

“… … You, you know more about this guy than me, you are afraid of the guy above him.”

then you can’t

“Yes, I am determined. you don’t say the end union president. I wonder how long you can last.”

smirk smirk

The transformation spell engraved on the back of Zeke’s hand raised a shady and ominous energy.

‘Can he withstand the energy of that guy who has the most bad taste among the demon king’s subordinates?’

Zeke met in Dark Fantasy

It reminded me of the torture technician of the Demon King’s army whose whole body was made of rotten slime.

He put his hand on the head of the guildmaster.

Then, the young energy on the back of the hand squeezed through the qi gong of the union leader.

‘Quaaa

The head of the union rolled over his white eyes.

Starting from the face, the capillaries throughout the body pulsated.

I want to scream, but my voice won’t come out of my mouth.

It feels like every blood vessel is burning and bones are melting in real time.

A terrible burning pain ran through my body from the inside.

He salivated from his mouth.

Even though he lost his mind and wanted to be comfortable, this pain did not allow even him.

‘Monster, monster!!!!!!!!!!! Kkeaaa!!!!!!!!!!!’

With a strong will, I promised not to open my mouth

I realized how foolish that was.

‘No, I’ll tell you!!! I’ll tell you!!!!!!’

He reached out his hand toward Zeke, trembling with pain at the sound that did not come out of his mouth.

But Zeke, as if he didn’t care about himself, immersed himself in his own thoughts.

‘Now, I’ll tell you!!!!!! some of this!!!!! Kkeaaak!!!!!’

Click. Click. Click.

Zeke listened to the recorded voice again and again.

A feeling of uneasiness continued to tickle a corner of my head.

In particular, the voice he uttered at the end seemed to have something peculiar to it.

– President, how are you? … … The information I will give you from now on… … Of course, I trust the president… …

‘Let’s think.’

Zeke recalled the expression the union leader had just shown.

Two days ago, when the guild leader sent an assassin to himself

Zeke thought that this crystal ball must contain information that would put the life of the head of the association in danger if it were known along with the power of the imperial family.

You would have seen Zeke split the wall with a loaf of bread.

That he hastily sent an assassin who was not properly prepared.

Again, the price for such trivial information was not suitable.

‘And desperately wanted the crystal ball back. It was definitely fear that stood on his face.’

In fact, the head of the union was renewing the fear in real time, but

Zeke, lost in thought, didn’t even look at it.

‘No, let me tell you something…’ … !!!!’

What on earth made the union leader tremble in fear?

There must be a clue that it is three months after the man last said in the Crystal Ball.

‘Tinnitus that seems to be stuck in my ears, is the voice enchanted?’

“Ouch… … . horse, horse… … .”

“noisy. I’m thinking, so be quiet.”

The head of the union forcibly opened his mouth that would not open at the end with great willpower and conveyed his intention to Zeke.

Zeke only glared at the crystal ball with serious eyes.

‘Eulsur region… … . It’s likely a small town on the outskirts of the empire.’

Click. Click.

Zeke, who habitually pressed the button,

Suddenly, in the voice heard from the crystal ball, certain words kept bothering me.

“… … my… … … water… … .”

‘uh?’

No, these are not words.

therefore… … .

“union president! Where is the pen and paper!”

Zeke turned his gaze to the head of the union and said.

‘my… … I tell you… … Goo… … … .’

Even so, he glanced at the desk with a trembling gaze.

Zeke quickly walked over to his desk and took out a pen and paper.

– President, how are you? I always… … . welcome… … .

‘Joe, me, half… … . no. This is not it. this is next I’ll just pick the first letter from now on.’

– ‘I am… … . ‘of course… … . ‘to’ shrr… … .

‘A sacrifice!!’

As if possessed, Zeke divided his words into sentences and began writing them down after taking only the first letter.

Zeke’s eyes widened as he looked at the paper.

Tzar had goosebumps on his arm.

‘Am I a genius?’

[J] [Water] [B] [Jun] [B] [Hae] [La] [White] [Myeong] [La] [Lee] [O] [S] [San] [Mac]

“Prepare an offering for one hundred people. Laios Mountains. And… … . three months later.”

A sentence that flowed indifferently from Zeke’s mouth.

“Yes, the secret of that laugh was the beginning and end of the secret language.”

Zeke looked at the head of the union with a relieved face.

Even in the pain, he looked very unfair.

He gave me a little mana to open his mouth.

“Ugh… runny… peel… … . my… … I… … . I’ll tell you… … Five… … . fuck… … baby… … .”

Hey, it’s not fun to look at the answers. fuck you

Sieg reaped the mana he had planted in his head.

*

Ughhhhh-

black black –

oh oh oh oh oh oh

“You crazy bastard… … . crazy man… … .”

The head of the union buried his face in the blanket and cried sadly for the world to pass away.

Of course, the sound did not leak out of the door because of the gimag that Zeke had struck from the first time he entered.

From the first time I was tortured, I tried to tell you all the facts I didn’t have.

The madman was wasting his time trying to solve the clues.

Even though I forcibly opened my mouth that wouldn’t open and didn’t scream once!

“You crazy bastard… … .”

baek!

“Ugh!”

I have a severe pain in my head.

Crying. I wanted to struggle with resentment and sadness, but this guy is a guy who can’t communicate.

He touched someone he shouldn’t have touched.

“It’s too much to say that you’re a crazy bastard. But what does this smell like?”

Sieg frowned and looked at the union leader.

That strange torture technique broke the will of the guild leader so easily,

At the same time as the tension was relieved, even the poop and urine made my pants get tired.

heh heh heh

Slowly, Zeke put his body back and said.

“Stop crying and talking. So I solved all the clues now. Who is behind the man who delivered this order? And what does sacrifice mean?”

“Huh. Whoops.”

However, the head of the union was too busy crying to respond to Zeke’s words.

baek! baek! baek!

“Huh!!! No, I’ll tell you!! That, stop!!!”

baek!

“Yes, speak quickly. I don’t have very long patience.”

The head of the union tried to hold back the tears that kept welling up.

“… … Whoops. So, that’s why, Marquis of Lovenus… … . is.”

“Marquis of Lovenus?”

“Huh, yes… … . And don’t sacrifice it, you need it to study magic… … .”

“Is it black magic?”

“Yeah, that’s me too… … .”

baek!

“Oops!!!”

What on earth should I say more honestly so that I can’t get hit by this crazy guy!!!

The head of the union was so sick of that funny bread.

Of course, it was nothing compared to the previous torture, but it was an internal pain and another external pain.

“Hey, stop!!! Me too!!! I caught my weakness!!!”

“Isn’t it justified to hit someone in the back just because you’ve found a weakness? At least you have to hit the guy who caught your weakness in reverse.”

That was something Zeke could say.

The rank of marquis was not as good as the imperial family or the duke, but those noble bloodlines were few in number in the first place.

So, even if it was just a marquis family, the power that was ignored by the head of the union.

He was a person I couldn’t even dare to face.

If he doesn’t obey his orders, his existence will disappear without even a mouse or a bird knowing.

He even has a weakness, but what should he do?

The head of the union glared at Zeke out of resentment,

He got hit one more time because he didn’t like the look in his eyes.

‘What the hell are you talking about! no way! A person from the same marquess or duke’s family!’

The head of the union thought while stroking his bumpy head with his hand.

It was a person who was obviously not in the information

Zeke’s bizarre ability and that casual attitude gave rise to a small hope.

‘That madman drove me to the brink of death, but in the end he didn’t kill me. That means… … !’

The head of the union asked quietly.

“… … Can you protect me?”

“Well? Why should I?”

Zeke raised his eyebrows.

I was in so much pain that I couldn’t even speak properly.

The head of the union thought that this moment was the most important moment and hardened his face.

“I’ll give you information on the situation and act as a double agent for what’s to come.”

“… … Do you want me to protect you in return?”

“… … Yes.”

baek!

“You are crazy.”

‘What are you talking about!’

The head of the union forcibly suppressed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Zeke’s gaze at him was also not good.

‘The guy who has already been diligently preparing even the wrapping paper to make a sacrifice is now looking like an independent fighter. This bat-like bastard.’

Hmm. But using this guy to rob them was pretty interesting.

I also wanted to see the magic of this world

First of all, he didn’t even care about the black magicians who needed human sacrifices.

No, it was hateful.

‘Should I kill them all and then take care of this pig? No, but the genre keeps trying to drift? Why is the romance world doing this all the time?’

“Did you say three months later?”

“… … Two months and two weeks from now to be exact… … .”

“Hmm… … .”

‘Yes, the kids should catch at least one or two warlocks by then.’

Zeke turned his gaze to the head of the union.

“Yeah, good. I don’t know about protection, but I’ll make a judgment based on the performance first.”

“That, that means!”

“But I don’t trust you.”

Sieg poured mana into the head of the guild again.

‘Keuk!!!!!’

The head of the union opened his eyes and trembled.

Fortunately, this pain was short-lived.

But the most intense fear engulfed his head.

Just by looking at Zeke with nonchalant eyes, the feeling that the strength of the lower half of the body is released.

“I just planted that pain in you. If you feel like betraying in the future, remember that pain. I can cause you that pain anytime.”

‘Sure, Gouraji. If there was such a convenient thing, it would have taken 10 years to become the king of dark fantasy.’

However, in the small eyes of the head of the association, who do not know the circumstances,

Tears flowed again.

Thinking that I was wronged by a real madman.

“Gather information and bring it to us once this week. And release all those who were captured as sacrifices. Report to the Marquis and report that the offerings are being collected with ease. suitable camouflage. can you do it?”

The head of the union could do nothing but nod.

That night.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Serena was reading a book frantically with a flushed face.

I folded the book I was reading at the sound of knocking outside.

‘this time… … . Is it Ailee!? This is a really important moment!’

On the cover of the red book, the title [Fifty stick shadows cast on the princess’s face] was written in small letters.

‘I think Ailee has already caught the other books, but not as much as this one!’

If it’s Ailee, she won’t come into the room without her permission.

So enough time to hide the book.

Obviously there won’t be any problems.

Serena cleared her throat and answered.

“Ailee?”

“It’s me. Serena. Can I see you for a second?”

A thick voice that jumps in at an unexpected moment.

“Yeah!? Instructor!?”

Serena was so embarrassed that she immediately asked back.

“Okay. Excuse me then.”

Zeke understood Serena’s question and turned the doorknob.

clap.

kiik-

Serena quickly hid the book under the covers.

‘aaa!!!’

She greeted Zeke right away, with no time to prepare.

“Everyone, are you back!? You’re a little late? But uh, what are you doing!? Massage…? I’m off training today, so I’m fine!?”

“No, I want to tell you something important.”

“Ahahahaha…now, now?”

Serena let out an awkward smile.

“Okay. Get out of bed for a second.”

“… … !”
