Chapter 454 – Elimination of Enemies
It’s hot.
Beads of sticky sweat run down the nape of my neck.
Damn mosquitoes are buzzing in my ears, and there’s moisture under my balls.
I feel like I’m getting heat rash. The smell is no joke.
“···.”
Seojun, who was walking down a narrow street, stopped in front of a bar and quietly looked around at his son-in-law.
Yaoong-
There are only a few grumpy cats and field mice on the dark side of the road.
The entire street is eerily quiet.
Just a few days ago, orphaned babies were making and eating mud pies, old people were screaming and lamenting about everything in the world, and people were swearing at their parents, their children, and their country (but they dare not swear at the mistress of the night). (I couldn’t do it) The beetles were everywhere.
Blood stains sprinkled on the dirt. Three thatched roofs that burned down and collapsed. There are only broken dishes and utensils lying around on the streets.
Among them, this bar was in somewhat strangely intact shape.
Seojun knocked on the door, and soon after, I heard the sound of the latch being unlocked.
Kwiik-
The person who opened the door and came out was a northerner with a smooth top of his head.
He is strong.
The energy I feel is twice as good as that of Seojun.
Of course, we’ll have to wait and see who will win.
The northerner stuck his head out through the door and looked around the street with his hand on the ax at his waist.
There is no sign of being wary of Seojun. Because I know his face.
His handsome appearance and straight limbs were enough to arouse hostility from men, but his status as ‘the son of a mistress’ forced him to let go of that hostility.
The northerner looks at Seojun with narrowed eyes and gestures.
“Come in.”
As soon as you step inside, eyes pour in from all directions.
Curiosity, wariness, hostility-.
Seojun casually walked to the spacious bar table, sat down, and snapped his fingers.
“Here’s a beer.”
The mustachioed old store owner who was cleaning the glasses glanced at Seojun and disappeared into the kitchen.
Tung-
When I turned my head at the sound of a table being tapped, I saw a large white man sitting next to me looking Seojun up and down.
“Are you that guy? “The mistress’s son?”
As Seojun slowly nodded his head, another guy sitting across from him, a skinny guy, wiped the beer foam off his mustache and offered to shake his hand.
“I’m a Yorker. Is this an honor? “I never thought I would see the rumored master in person.”
“Seojun.”
When Seojun accepts the handshake, the skinny guy shows his yellow teeth and giggles.
These two guys were also in unusual shape.
The fact that so many strong people get kicked in a secluded bar like this must be proof that the situation is the situation.
The big guy points out and taps the skinny guy on the back of the head.
“Baby, look at the atmosphere. “It’s not the time to laugh.”
“Why? “Is that what Nivera looks like?”
The skinny guy smiles and looks back.
Seojun also glanced in that direction.
On the podium where the band sings or plays and receives pennies, a woman is lying down.
It looks like a mermaid who got legs instead of fins and was kicked by a prince and experienced frustration.
Grumpy blonde hair, animal fur on the cheeks, a drooping tail, and red pupils that still have some wildness left in them.
Nivera.
Not only was he tied tightly with rope, he was also wearing blue-colored shackles on both wrists and ankles.
It must be an object made of brass that blocks mana.
Tung-
“Beer here.”
A glass of alcohol was placed in front of me. Seojun tipped his drink as if he had been waiting.
There was no need for snacks.
There was no snack as delicious as the woman kneeling in that ugly shape.
“Cough…!”
Seojun coughed violently. The beer tasted so bad it made my tongue tingle. It almost makes me think it would be better to drink horse urine.
Voices giggling can be heard from all directions.
As Seojun wipes his lips, the skinny guy comforts him with a smile that hasn’t gone away.
“The beer here is a bit bad. What can I do? There is no place safer than here amidst the chaos of the Empire’s investigation team going all over the place. Isn’t that right, Gibson?”
“I just like the taste.”
Shrugging his shoulders, the big guy named Gibson took a gulp of beer and burped.
Yes, it doesn’t make sense to expect decent beer at a time like this -.
Seojun sipped his beer again. As expected, it tastes like shit.
As the skinny guy said – a large-scale investigation team was dispatched from the imperial family.
Five or six knights, including a heresy inquisitor from the Holy Kingdom, formed a group and were moving around cleaning the streets day and night.
This was a natural measure since the cockroaches released a monster and the entire city was devastated.
How significant the tax revenue from a city of this size must have been?
Since it was cut in half, it was necessary for them to clearly reveal the circumstances surrounding the creation of this division and the instigator.
Thanks to this, the executives of the side gate were also gathered here in a dark bar and were hiding as if they were dead.
Seojun sipped his beer and looked around.
Pimps, smugglers, drug dealers, gangsters…
All kinds of human groups are gathered here.
These are all parasites of society.
They are beings who suck the hard work of small citizens and further eat away at the national power of the empire.
If Seojun was a good man who followed justice and the law, he would have willingly poured oil and set fire to this shady bar. He must have completely exterminated it.
However, Seojun was neither an apostle of justice nor a judge.
It didn’t matter who they were.
I never wondered whether he was a villain from birth or whether some unfortunate story forced him to become a villain.
They were just chess pieces that would do their work for them.
“Nivera, why does she look like that? What happened?”
The big guy, looking around, asked in a low voice, and the skinny guy answered with a hearty smile.
“They say you’re a traitor who got caught up with cockroaches. “That bitch spat out her mouth.”
“What···? This is fucking ridiculous! That can’t be possible!”
That’s right.
Nivera confessed his identity.
I was a livestock born in a cockroach hatchery-.
She was told to approach Andalote, the flower of evil, and become her limb, and that she would one day, when the time came, put a sword in her back –
The city is already being devastated by cockroaches.
There were quite a few of my colleagues who had already been captured by the investigation team. Most of them will not return alive.
In the meantime, she confessed that it was actually a ganja sent by a cockroach, so it was clear where her anger would go.
Insults are pouring in from all around her.
A traitor who knows no grace-!
Even if we eat together, what about cockroaches? Hey dirty bitch-!
Some big guys spit on Nivera’s head, slapped her, or pushed her down with their feet.
Instead of resisting, she fell down helplessly and could only barely breathe.
Fortunately, she was devastated because the mistress had not yet decided how to treat her. If not, she would have returned the food and eaten it, then chopped up her limbs and given them to pigs.
Gwaik-
Even tigers come when you tell them to. At that moment, the city hostess opened the door of her bar and came in.
The executives are in a panic as if they have been waiting. Seojun also put down his beer glass.
When she removes the hood from her head, her black tresses that fall down to her waist and the thin nape of her neck are revealed.
Most of it was covered by the thick clothing, but Seojun snorted and quietly laid down his body on the backrest, knowing how white and fair her skin was and how lustful her curves were beyond the fabric.
Her bright yellow eyes studied her son-in-law and stopped on Seojun.
The emotions in the eyes are ambiguous.
It seems to be filled with affection, but it also feels anger, worry, and a hint of hostility.
As Seojun slightly avoided her gaze, she walked in front of her, looking around her audience again.
The place where the steps stopped was on the podium where Nivera was tied.
“···Mother.”
Nivera lifts her head.
Her jaw was tense, as if she was trying hard to hold back her tears, and her eyes were filled with tears.
It would be unfair. Because her loyalty to her mother was never in doubt.
Nivera spoke in a desperate voice.
Mother, I am following you wholeheartedly-.
Although it is true that she hid her origins, it has been a long time since she changed her mind after admiring the warmth of her mother. She had no intention of betraying you.
However, no matter how much sincerity was contained in each word, the conclusion that would come out of the hostess’s mouth was already decided.
“···Phew.”
A quiet sigh. Andalote’s delicate hands resting on the table.
Seojun noticed that his hands were shaking slightly.
Her pale complexion, dark eyelids, and dull hair showed how much thought she had put into making her decision.
Her lips fluttered, then opened.
“···Nivera. “I banish you from this city forever.”
Because it’s an expulsion sentence-.
Is it because I couldn’t bear to kill him?
But for Nivera, it was one thing or another, and tears flowed down her cheeks and dripped onto the floor.
Seojun covered his mouth with his palm when she heard her voice asking him to kill her.
[What the fuck is so easy haha]
[ㄹㅇㅋㅋ I succeeded in getting rid of my romantic partner with a 100 coin confession lol]
[Don’t say it’s 100 coins, you’re going into a fit of laughter lol]
[LOL]
Although the coin was a bit of a waste, it was still difficult to hold back her laughter.
