Chapter 663 – Episode 663: Final Skirmish-19
The moment he entered the basement, he immediately counted the situation.
It’s not that he only believes in teleport and acts recklessly. He always had to be prepared in case something went wrong.
Except for Iris, there are seven people.
The two were familiar faces, Bellani and Endymion.
The other four men are the remaining leaders of the City Federation, and the gentle-faced young man sitting on the throne must be Hedelion Lycas.
Iris said as she took the lead.
“Long time no see. Everyone.”
“Welcome. Miss Iris Vallia.”
Hedelion smiled and stood up.
Responding with formality, Iris also lowered her head, but the basement remained still.
“… Who is that?”
Hedelion asked while looking down into the basement.
Iris spoke instead.
“He is someone I know personally. We are doing the same now.”
“Come to think of it, both of you are covering your faces.”
Hedelion smiled and gestured.
Then people moved and made a place. When Bellany tried to bring a chair, Endymion stopped him and brought two chairs himself.
Iris and Jiha sat down on the chairs.
The basement was silent and observed the crowd.
The three of them had already seen the basement and had a conversation.
Hedelion, Bellani, and Endymion are all three.
It could have been caught in case of emergency.
‘I changed my voice with the microphone attached to the armor, but you never know. Let’s watch it for now…’
Hedelion spoke first.
“So how did the capture of Yosaren go?”
“It went back to failure. I and the members were defeated and surrendered.”
“…”
The complexion of the middle class changed.
It was the reality that Endymion claimed that Iris would have surrendered. Aren’t you saying it too boldly?
Hadelion asked.
“Then are you on the side of the Red Union?”
“I fight for Wordsland.”
“Hmm… Great. Then why did you come?”
It’s a story that can be pinched and disputed, but Hedelion didn’t care.
“I have come to urge surrender to the Red Union.”
“…”
People’s faces changed in a different way.
It was relief this time.
The fact that the Red Union is willing to accept surrender, sending Iris to solicit it means that they have no intention of killing the entire population of the castle.
Hadelion asked calmly.
“What are the conditions?”
“For now, there is no. When all the soldiers are disarmed and come out, then the leader of the Red Union, the underground god, speaks face to face.”
“We could all die in that situation.”
Hedelion laughed and said.
Then people shook their heads.
“No, no way…”
“I even surrendered, but would you kill me?”
“You must have seen what he was doing while occupying La Russa, Gadeon, and Mountain Road? I saw blood after all.”
Hedelion’s claim was plausible, but in fact, all three of them had a plan to attack the underground.
But in this situation, the truth didn’t matter.
It just needs to have the effect of making people anxious and suspicious.
As Hadelion intended, the lords of the castle made complicated faces.
Iris shook her head.
“Me and the members are safe.”
“Well, the Unicorn Knights are a competent force. It is difficult to expect that we will be treated the same.”
“Then what proof do you want?”
Iris asked calmly, and Hedelion crossed her legs and thought.
Then he said out loud.
“Let’s sign a peace treaty, not surrender. Please return the territory of the city federation and acknowledge its autonomy.”
“… What.”
Someone sighed
Surrender and a peace treaty are completely different stories, isn’t there any reason for the Red Union to accept that?
Hadelion only smiled friendly.
“If the Red Union tries to cross the wall by force, our City Federation will fight to the death. And the fact that the two legends of the Red Union are tied here… Wouldn’t that be a great opportunity for Purple as well?”
In preparation for that, Jiha placed all the uniques on the purple front, excluding Yura and Leticia.
However, the other lords of the City Alliance didn’t know that in detail, and even if they did, they could easily fool them.
The Legend of Purple, and Epic will beat Red Union.
Even if you hint like that, the leaders of the city federation will be tempted.
“In the end, this fight is about whether we last long or whether the Red Union can last long. Isn’t it? Why would he mobilize the Snow Queen and Heavenly Tiger in this fight? That’s because they want to destroy us as quickly as possible.”
“Um…”
People sighed, but agreed.
The simultaneous mobilization of Heaven and Earth and the Snow Queen, Jihaya and Ouroboros were wary arrangements, but Hedelion skillfully instigated them.
That’s how Red Union can’t afford it.
“We must not collapse here. And a siege would be very different.”
“If the Snow Queen were to climb the walls right away, her soldiers would not be able to withstand it.”
When Iris said something common sense, Hedelion nodded her head.
“Try to do it if you can.”
Look at this Jiha laughed while listening to the conversation going back and forth.
Hedelion assumed that the underground would be wary of the fight against Barota and the Dead Zone.
You don’t know when and where the dead zone is designed. So he judges that he will not blindly put up a legend and push in.
It was correct.
‘Barota, he confidently jumped out of the trap and caught it in reverse… This guy is different.’
Even if Hedelion traps the Legend, he is not the one he will reveal. He will have his soldiers take care of it.
Should I just cut my throat here?
He attends the meeting and is in a situation without a sword, but he could kill them all if the underground decides.
‘… No.’
Hedelion is working with Milion. If you blow off Hadelion’s head here, Milion will escape and conspire again.
Rather, they both had to let the conspiracy unfold and then strike it off.
Because the purpose is to completely clean up the rear with this opportunity.
“That is a very difficult request…”
Iris shook her head.
There was no way the Red Union would agree to it without her asking.
Hedelion spoke softly.
“I will send this story to someone. Iris-sama should stay here.”
“I came as a lion, so are you saying you want to be detained?”
Even on the battlefield, there are etiquette.
Of course, lions could be killed in the event of an emergency, but there was a conventional wisdom.
Hedelion put on an apologetic expression.
“Sorry. But what do you do when things turn out this way? Also, if the soldiers see Iris-sama in the enemy camp, their morale will definitely drop, so you should stay.”
“…”
Iris was silent.
I noticed that I was waiting for the judgment of the underground, but the underground did not say anything.
First of all, he gave Iris autonomy and said that he would intervene if necessary.
“All right. If you are willing, I will follow.”
“Yes, then I will give you a room, so you can rest comfortably.”
As Hadelion clapped his hands, the soldiers entered.
“Come on, take the two of you to separate rooms.”
Iris and Jiha got up from their seats.
Night room.
Locked in the basement room, she let out a bitter laugh.
“I mean, roughly like this…”
I didn’t say a word, but there was a harvest.
Hedelion was trying to buy time.
The words that Hadelion just said were for ruling the allies, and indeed the underground would not dream of accepting a peace treaty.
‘He’s a cool-headed guy. Hedelion is connected to Million and Ouroboros. In other words, it should be assumed that she knows the movements of the pirate empress…’
Are you really expecting Purple to move?
It wasn’t. Even if the Pirate Empress were to attack from afar again, this Hellao would be destroyed before the news arrived.
‘Awaiting the arrival of Heaven and Earth, or the plan being completed before then… According to Iris, there is a weakness in the ritual that makes the night king come back…’
Iris knew a lot, perhaps because she had kept Ouroboros in check for a long time.
Underground was chewing on Iris’s information, but he suddenly felt a presence.
Are you an intruder at night? Looking around the basement, a silver-haired Dark Elf was standing in the corner of the room.
It was Bellany.
It had appeared out of nowhere before. Her special ability was to freely come and go like this.
‘It’s not a teleport. It seems a bit different… Is it permeation?’
Bellany approached her gracefully, and she asked softly.
“Nice to meet you. Bellany, she says Warniak.”
“…”
“I came because I wanted to hear your voice on a dark night.”
Jiha calmly looked at Bellani.
Bellani still doesn’t know his identity. She’s like that because she really didn’t say a word.
However, for her to approach like this, she must have guessed that the strange armor that followed Iris must have received a secret order from the underground.
As the basement fell silent, Belany spoke softly.
“Have you ever been too frivolous? If you do not like it, I will return.”
“Sit down.”
The underground voice was modulated by the magic tool inside the helmet, the microphone, and was strangely thick.
Bellany nodded her head and took her chair and she sat down.
Unlike when I saw her during the day, her dress was long, but the slit on her side was cut up to her waist, so just by crossing her legs, her legs, hips and waist were exposed.
It was a seductive outfit that she usually concealed, but caught people’s attention by crossing her legs.
“Oh, do you like it?”
Even with her helmet on, Bellani seemed to sense what her subterranean was seeing.
Bellani burst out laughing, but his eyes were on the ground.
‘They want to know if I really got the gunman’s secret order…’
Bellani looks defenseless on the outside, but he is cautious on the inside. Even as he entered now, he did not show the slightest hint that he was a spy sent by the underground.
I’m going to reveal it only after I’m sure.
‘But I have no proof that Belany didn’t betray me…’
We need a guarantee that Belany would not have changed his mind and followed Hedelion.
Complicated? She should be suspicious since she started writing as a spy.
So contacting the spy required mutual confirmation every time.
Bellani said softly.
“Socheop likes the night. I especially like the night in the forest where we can get along with each other.”
“What are you talking about?”
Belany’s word now is floating.
On the night Bellani came to tell her about Barota’s plan, she was trying to confirm the identity inside her armor while mentioning it.
“I just talked to you for a while because I was wandering aimlessly at night.”
Having said that, Belany rose from her seat. Because if you can’t be sure of the other person’s identity, you can’t talk.
Jiha thought about it, then nodded her head.
“You look good.”
“…”
Belany’s face hardened.
As her mouth trembled as she smiled her bewitching smile, she made a forced laugh.
“… Could it be that you are not?”
“That’s right.”
Jiha said that and lightly lifted her blindfold.
“…”
Belany’s face was even more surprised, but she managed to calm herself down.
Underground looked at the face and said.
“Your dream will come true if you shout that the leader of the Red Union is here?”
Underground cracked down on and tamed her men as she smashed enemies.
This time it’s Bella.
She peers into the inner thoughts of the dark elves who hide their true feelings through lewd words and actions.
