Chapter 952 – On the Last Ear
“Calm down, who are you?”
“Where are you arguing!?”
This person. The color of the eyes is scary
It’s an attitude that makes you feel as if you’re going to strangle someone right away.
At times like this, the magic pill is for me to be the same as you, but I’m a gentleman, so I’m just going to scare you.
“Let go. Before I kill you.”
“…”
Uh.
I didn’t mean to be so violent…
[You are quite sensitive.]
The disgrace was dead.
The woman who did not know who she was, felt my life and quietly laid her eyes on her.
But she was still holding her by the collar, and Hak Jin-mu came over and grabbed her by the wrist, forcing her to take her hand off my collar.
“Calm down. This man is not a member of the exile cult you hate.”
The hateful cult of exile?
“Such…! Then why did Lee Ha-ryun try to kiss this man?!?!”
What?
Match your mouth?
What a fuck!!
You dared to kiss a man who owned it without his permission?
I’m gonna match!!
Although Lee Ha-ryun is a neat and mysterious beauty, he cannot be forgiven.
If I had tried to kiss her while she was awake, I might have left her alone because she might get some experience points.
“A woman named Lee Ha-ryun, she must have been caught in bondage by this man. She didn’t go her way, so as she was about to carry this man, she found us and ran away.”
“Restraint…?”
A woman tilting her head as if she had no idea what she was talking about.
As expected, I am completely ignorant when it comes to combat.
The mana in her body was stored quite well, but other than that, it was safe to say that she was a normal person.
How was she able to stay safe in this ghost-infested magic bullet?
“Who is she? A resident of Matan?”
“No. An outsider.”
Hak Jin-moo immediately denied it.
“An outsider…? You said I don’t need to attack because I’m qualified. Is that the same case as me?”
If there were any conditions to gain favor other than catching the phantom Malachia, it would be very difficult.
If so, am I an absolute master who can’t even feel the energy?
However, Hakjinmu shook her head again this time.
“No. Only strangers like you are entered to block us. This does not apply to Elyunars who are not related to God at all.”
In other words, it was so fucked up that there was no need to stop it.
Then one problem remains.
“You. How did you get here?”
This is the deep place of Matan.
We reached here and only wrote seven by ear.
As he entered this last homecoming, the restrictions on the return home were eased along with the phrase that magic bullets were awakening.
However, this is the royal palace.
The Royal Palace must have been located in the center of Matan.
If you want to walk to this place, you will have to walk dozens of kilometers.
Until then, she said that she, a common man, was unharmed?
I had a Kingly heart.
The woman in front of me must be one of the two hypotheses I guessed.
I asked with a smile.
“You. The spy sent by the Exile Church…”
Awesome-!!
A glove flew off and hit me in the face.
It’s very painful.
“Ouch…”
“Cancel that!! You treat me like those filthy cultists…!”
“Didn’t you do that too?”
When I let out a disgruntled voice, she grinned. She moaned. Conscience seems to be alive.
“…Really, aren’t you the lover of Lee Ha-ryun, a refugee?”
“I have a girlfriend. She is hundreds of times prettier than Lee Ha-ryun.”
“…But, I’m sure I’ve seen you somewhere…”
A voice that creeps in without confidence.
“I don’t know what to say, but I’m quite famous. Haven’t you seen a picture of it somewhere?”
“Famous…? Um… Ah, ah…!!”
The woman pointed a finger at me. She did and covered her mouth with both of her hands.
Then she turned into a terrified face.
Why?
“Everything, you…!”
“Yes. I’m the buff…”
Flame sword. I was about to say, but stopped.
That fucking baby. I didn’t want to use the nickname Chewnar gave me anymore.
“Yes. Dragoon. Eight days.”
But before I could finish my words, she spoke in a trembling voice.
“Earth, noble slayers…!!”
“…”
An aristocratic slayer…?
What other nickname is that?
[It’s not exactly wrong, is it?]
The carefree voice of disgrace.
No. It does, but…
Rattling.
The woman stepped back from her with a frightened face.
I wondered why she was so scared, but seeing that she gave the name of an aristocratic massacre, she must be a noble.
Looking at her noble appearance again, I thought that she must be a nobleman.
“What is your name and where are you from?”
“That, that’s…”
She turns her head away with a frightened face.
Is it because I’m afraid I’ll do something?
She’s excited, angry, and scared right now. It seems impossible to think calmly because there are various emotions mixed together.
I looked at her academic radish instead of her and asked.
“Do you know about this person?”
“From the Zuhingorker Empire. I heard that you are Yuvar Anasha, the eldest daughter of the Anasha family.”
Zuhingorker Empire.
You’re from the same place as Laiet and Flareon.
“Do you know how she got to the palace?”
“Ummm…”
Hakjinmu was worried.
Rather than saying he didn’t know, it was a face that was troubled by how to explain it.
“Well… I can’t say anything other than that it’s similar to the Ghost Bridge.”
“Wait!! Please don’t compare me to that cultist, Hakjinmu-nim!!”
Hakjinmu smiled bitterly as she put her hand on her chest and apologized with her gentlemanly gesture to her protesting.
“I’m sorry. But in my judgment, the way you walk around this city without any interference is very similar to the way the Exile Church walks around here. Of course, unlike the Exile Church, you feel only a clean soul.”
Yubar lowered her head as if he was rather sorry for her gentlemanly tone.
By the way, it was similar to the ghost religion.
There is something that everyone is suspicious about.
How the hell does the Exorcist Cult confidently walk around the magic bullet?
That was something that even her reincarnated person, Kaitsu, who was a regressor, could not figure out.
Of course, it seems there are limits.
The exorcists who confidently fooled Maya and O’Brien last time were probably eaten by evil spirits and died.
Also, it seemed that they were in a hostile position with the residents of Matan, except for inducing the Maya to the place where the residents of Matan were.
According to my own experience, during the fight just four days ago, Hakjinmu attacked the Guildarians without hesitation.
Those guys aren’t welcome in Matan.
However, I am still staying in this ghost town.
I learned the rules to survive and live here.
What is that rule?
“Hakjinmu. The magician’s army and the exile religion…”
“It’s a dog and chicken watchdog that doesn’t care as long as they don’t invade each other’s territory.”
This time, Hakjinmu is quick to explain before he even finishes talking.
“I don’t know details about them either. But I do know that they worship that hideous ghost, can use some of his powers, and reside in his dwelling.”
“Are you staying at his residence?”
It was Yubar, not Hakjinmu, who responded to my words.
“Yes!! That terrible pit. In there, their stronghold, the headquarters is…!”
It was as if he had just visited.
I looked at her in surprise.
“How do you know?”
“Because I’ve been there myself.”
She still seemed afraid of me, but this time she looked somewhat determined.
“Aristocratic… Mad flame.”
“I hate that title.”
“Ah. I’m sorry Mad Flame. Being a noble slayer was… My… Misunderstanding.”
“No. I hate madness… No. I hate both.”
Yubar, who was troubled by my words, asked.
“Then what should I call you…?”
“Call me Dragoon.”
“Ah. Was that the first title for Dre-sama? Yes. I will.”
Why is the world suddenly polite?
The reason is obvious.
If you are unnecessarily polite to someone you meet for the first time, there will be something you want.
“Dragoon. Are you planning to go to the base of the Exile Cult?”
“Well.”
She stared at me and put her hand to her own chest and said.
“I know the exact location of the headquarters. I can guide you if you want.”
This. Know how things are working around.
It seems that he was convinced that I was hostile to the exile religion.
“I’ll guide you there, please… Please…! Kill those demons…!!”
I stared at her for a moment, then I looked at her school uniform again.
“Mr. Hakjinmu.”
“Hmm?
“Aside from the Exiles, how do you deal with evil spirits?”
“…”
Hakjinmu tilted his head slightly.
“What do you mean?”
“No. If that… An evil spirit made up its mind and invaded this place… I thought it would be in trouble.”
“Ah. That’s what it means. What. If that ghost decided to kill us, he would have died long ago. Ah. He must have already died haha.”
It’s not like a joke.
“That terrible ghost, the demon, has no interest in us.”
“Why?”
“Haha. You already know the answer, don’t you?”
As he said, there are things you can guess.
However, I wanted to hear the affirmation directly from his mouth.
“As you guessed, that terrible ghost is the ultimate ghost and also all ghosts. In other words, we are part of him.”
Hakjinmu put his hand on his heart.
“My men don’t seem to know it, but sometimes I feel his presence, my connection, even the slightest bit.”
All ghosts, like it or not, are connected to evil spirits.
Former ghosts, demons, as their nickname suggests, are the crystallization of all ghosts.
“We are, so to speak, parts of his body. Consuming us is like eating your own flesh.”
Hakjinmu laughed, saying that there is no crazy person who deliberately eats his own body.
“Well. Although it’s the same body, I don’t want to go into that terrible pit and meet him.”
That was caring for me.
A courtesy to me, not to deliberately attempt suicide.
I was grateful for that favor, but at the same time, it was burdensome.
So, I said it on purpose.
“Ah. Can I ask you another question?”
“Ummm. If it’s you, it doesn’t matter if you ask any number of questions.”
I asked him with a friendly smile.
“It looks like I’m welcomed right now, but if I try to finish the ordeal, will we become enemies again?”
“As I said before, trying to stop the demons is not voluntary, but rather instinctive. Now that the force is over, I don’t really have the heart to stop it. I don’t.”
I am?
He grinned.
“What you’re looking at right now. It’s a story that it’s difficult to solve it with only me and the soldiers’ acknowledgment.”
“…”
He is quick to notice.
They say it’s palace, but your sharp eyes are no joke.
Pretending to see him, I opened the quest window.
He was watching the progress rate with the ears of the last magic bullet.
As for the return, it was 90% progressed.
It meant that if you go a little further and meet certain conditions, you can complete the quest with your ears.
All I’ve done so far was to get rid of the false malachia of the illusion and enter the palace.
Perhaps, entering the center of magic bullets was the condition of the quest.
For example, the royal palace.
Among them, the most important, such as the king’s room.
“The royal family’s room is located in the middle after exiting this room. Follow the wide corridor leading to the third floor.”
I’m a little stumped.
“…Can I tell you that?”
“Nothing. I’ve said it over and over again. I won’t stop you from solving your ordeal. No, I would rather.”
Hakjinmu laughed bitterly.
“I want you to put His Majesty, who has nothing but hatred, to rest.”
“Do you think he… Will not be kind to me?”
“Only those with reason are friendly to you. It must be me, my subordinates, or the superficial inhabitants.”
Superficial?
He seemed to know, of course, that the residents of Hakjinmudo turned into monsters.
However, it seemed that Hakjinmu had no intention of telling him in detail.
“But your majesty is different. He was the owner of the country, and he is deeply grieved at the destruction of the country in his generation. The reason was that it was a sudden disaster, so he lost his will with too much hatred.”
“…Was he a very strong person?”
Hakjinmu shook his head.
“He’s a ruler, not a warrior. But he’s given strength worthy of the final ordeal by the laws of the world. Well, if you’re a prince, there’s no problem, but well.”
Hakjinmu laughed.
It was a different, malicious smile.
“Even if you get rid of him and move forward, the ordeal will not end. To solve the ordeal, you need a very huge condition.”
“Condition…?”
“Destroy something that we don’t know about that keeps us sanity, or…”
Or?
“Release our aspirations.”
Desire.
The moment I understood the meaning of those words, I couldn’t help but freeze.
“…He is…”
My voice cracked slightly.
“He was deceived. He wanted to kill you…”
“I was tricked by Nanar and went crazy.”
“…!!’
Did you know?
But why…?
“What’s the matter with your face? Rather, I want to ask you. Why do you think you won’t hate me?”
The eyes of his goblin mask shone brightly.
“It is the Plague Dragon who was fooled by that fanatic without caution. Also, whether he has reason or not, it is the Plague Dragon who destroyed our demon bullets with his body and his power. ?”
“…”
“Even if it was a knife without self-will, I have no choice but to hate it. Yes, I hate us. I hate Nanar.
Hard.
Hak Jin-mu’s body shuddered black.
A frightened Yuvar sneaked up to me.
“It didn’t kill us all at once, and that terrible poison lasted terribly and painfully for a week…! I hate that they let us die slowly from the poison…!! Did you think it was because of the dragon’s good nature?”
At the end of the song, I was speechless, but Hakjinmu spoke.
“You’re welcome. That’s instinct. It’s just broken by acting against Nanar’s input, the command to enjoy our pain and his own ugliness for as long as possible.”
“Absolutely not. He is a good being.”
At my firm words, the energy of Hakjinmu stopped.
He still smiled bitterly.
“Yes. That’s the difference in perspective between you and me, who were with the plague dragon, and us who weren’t together. It’s also a difference that can’t be narrowed down.”
Academic affairs took place.
“A way to bring out him who has already died and become a spirit and resides within you. At least I don’t know. You’re a skilled warrior and I don’t want to harm you, who gave me peace after a long time. However, don’t think of conciliating us.”
At the end of his words, Hakjinmu glared at me.
Right around my heart.
“…”
“…”
We were silent
As he said, there is a difference that cannot be narrowed down.
What can I say to those who have been poisoned for a week and have lived as ghosts for thousands of years?
We are enemies after all.
I asked questions instead of appeasement.
“Last question, what about Eltman?”
“You are not obligated to answer. But I advise you, sir. Please do not defend the Plague Dragon in front of the soldiers. Your reaction will be different from mine.”
Jump.
And Hakjinmu leaves the room.
I was silent, then I spoke to him inside.
Dry up
What that person said…
[That’s right.]
He replied as if nothing happened.
[It is right hate.]
No.
All the bad ones are Nanar bastards!!
“Dre-sama…!”
Wow surprise
Yuvar suddenly put his face in front of me.
“Isn’t this the time to be like this?!”
“Umm… I need to get rid of the Ghost Bridge, but it’s not particularly urgent that I have to do it right now.”
“What are you talking about! Didn’t they kidnap your comrades!!”
“…Colleague?”
Who?
“And, what are you hesitating about in the situation that happened to him as well?”
“Wait. Who is it?”
I was going to stop by the royal family and think, but what else was left?
And I couldn’t help but be dazed by the words that followed.
“The true hero, Kitz-sama!!”
