Chapter 974 – 974. Yggdrasil (7)
As soon as I came outside, I heard a lively man’s voice.
(Oh~ I wondered how long I would wait.)
The owner of the voice is Souta.
He circled around me in a spirit state and giggled.
(What happened? Just now, something came out of Ryosuke’s stomach, and he hurried back inside.)
“Oh, that…”
I picked up the missing music box and explained what happened inside.
After hearing the entire explanation, Souta began to laugh as if it were exhilarating.
(Puhahaha! It looks good!)
“Aren’t you disappointed that you couldn’t see it in person?”
Unfortunately, Souta could not enter the workshop.
And Ryosuke’s body cannot be taken out.
In other words, Souta could not see Ryosuke’s Hell in person.
But…
(Once you get that guy into your hands, that’s enough.)
Souta was satisfied with the fact that he had succeeded in getting revenge.
But that didn’t mean it ended with satisfaction.
(Even if you can’t see it now, you’ll be able to see more interesting scenes later. Let’s wait until then, okay~)
It was a story about waiting.
Anyway, if you unlock Ryosuke’s immortality, he will die and go to Neo Niflheim.
If you go there, no matter how smart you are, you will be cruelly manipulated by Souta’s hypnosis.
While I live, I will taste hell, and when I die, I will taste hell for Souta.
After finishing the conversation with Souta…
(I guess I should go back if I have nothing more to see. I have to finish the cleaning I was doing.)
“You work really hard…”
Even though there is no gravekeeper, they work so hard to clean…
Instead of grumbling after hearing what I said, Souta responded with a bitter look on his face.
(Well… I just don’t like it being dirty.)
“…”
Although we only spent a short time together, Souta seemed to miss the gravekeeper as well.
I looked at Souta like that and nodded his head.
“Okay, go back. “I’ll call you if I need anything.”
(Okay~)
Souta disappeared without leaving those words.
At the place where Souta disappeared like that…
“Uh, over there…”
“Well, what should we do… ?”
Me and the two debaters remained.
The two debaters were standing upright, watching me.
It looked like criminals waiting for disposition.
I looked at those two…
“From now on…”
I started giving orders.
***
As soon as the man in the cloak sat down on the sofa, he yawned loudly.
“Haaam… A sudden summons…”
The man sitting next to him nodded his head in agreement.
“I know… “It’s rare for the three of you to be together like this.”
But the man sitting on the other side grumbled.
“Hey, can you sleep during these emergency times?”
All three men were wearing capes and hiding their identities.
The identities of these three are Red Crescent executives.
They were the direct subordinates of Ryosuke, the head of the Red Crescent Moon.
They were so powerful within the organization that they even killed their subordinates just because they were bored.
The yawning man answered with irritation.
“I don’t have any work to do, so what do I do while I’m awake? Plus, I’m the type of person who works better when I take a nap.”
The identity of the yawning man is Beyer.
He was closing his eyes for a moment while Ryosuke was away for a moment.
An executive responding to his grumbling.
“The basics aren’t there~”
“Joy! Anyone who sees it will think that you have mastered the basics well.”
“Please, instead of fighting with me in the middle, won’t you go somewhere else and fight?”
The three bickered with each other like friends.
Beyer, who was talking to her like that, suddenly turned his head and lowered his voice.
“Hey… “They called us, right?”
The beings that caught Beyer’s gaze were just two gang members.
A member of an organization who hides his identity by wearing a cape like an executive.
Just looking at the stiff appearance of the three executives, it seemed like he was very nervous.
“Oh, right. “I delivered the convocation order on behalf of Ryosuke.”
Actually, there were no problems up to that point.
In the first place, it made even more sense for Ryosuke, the leader, to go directly to call the executives.
But…
“They don’t have any sign of affiliation?”
The problem was that the affiliations of the two organization members could not be determined.
It wore a red crescent moon symbol, but there were no other minor marks of affiliation.
Even if they were members of the same organization, because they were wearing capes, it was impossible to know exactly who they were without a mark.
Beyer looked towards the two gang members and raised her voice.
“Hey, where do you belong?”
“…”
“…”
Two gang members looking at each other and observing each other.
Beyer felt that his words had been ignored.
And she conveyed her feelings in her voice.
“Her… Are you ignoring what I say? Right Now…”
It was the moment when Beyer stood up and started a fight.
“Hey… These are the kids that Ryosuke directly ordered. “Don’t make things bigger for no reason.”
“… Tsk! We’ll see later.”
Beyer received her advice from her colleague next to her and turned her head in a shaky voice.
She then looked out her window and grumbled.
“Wow, it’s so dark. “I want to leave this damn 4th floor quickly.”
“… I also agree with that.”
“…”
It had been quite some time since all the executives here had been to the 4th floor.
But even after such a long time, I could not get used to this darkness.
Unlike the inhabitants of Umbra, light was an essential element of life for humans.
After not seeing that light for a long time, my emotional ups and downs began to worsen.
“Now that I think about it, Yang Ji-hyun came back this time, right?”
“Huh. Ryosuke called me to the 4th floor and will be here tomorrow.”
“Hehe… Yang Ji-hyeon also had a good day.”
Yang Ji-hyeon was dissatisfied with living on the first floor, but other executives saw it differently.
“I also want to go to the first floor and enjoy the sweet honey.”
“Hey, if anyone sees it, they’ll think Yang Ji-hyun came to play.”
“Hey… “If anyone sees you, they will think you are Yang Ji-hyun’s husband.”
The fact that Beyer was interested in Yang Ji-hyeon was already known to executives around her.
Beyer ticked in a shy voice.
“It’s noisy.”
The two people laughed once at Beyer’s shy attitude.
But the laughter didn’t last long.
“Ha… “Whether I go up or down, I want to get out of here quickly.”
The two executives nodded in agreement with Beyer’s words.
And then a man’s voice was heard.
“Then I should send it to you.”
“!?”
The three executives were startled by the voice and jumped up from the sofa.
Then I looked straight towards where the voice came from.
The place where the voice was heard was not from the door, but from the window.
At the window where there was no one before…
“You made me wait a long time.”
A man wearing a cloak was standing.
The three executives checked the leader’s mark on the cloak and immediately tried to bow their heads.
But…
“Who… Who… ?”
The three people could not bow their heads even after seeing the leader’s mark.
The reason was simple.
This was because there was no red summoner mark on the man’s head.
“… “Are you Ryosuke?”
The executives already knew Ryosuke’s identity.
Doll.
However, even though it was a doll, it could not remove the red summoner mark.
The dolls that Ryosuke operated in real life always had a red summoner mark on them.
The man without the Red Summoner’s mark waved his hand and answered.
“Do I really look like a different guy?”
“Oh, no!”
“Let’s sit down and talk first.”
“Yes!”
I sat upright on the sofa for three minutes like a wooden doll.
And across from them sat a man believed to be Ryosuke.
The three executives looked at each other and swallowed their saliva.
A leader who can handle puppets and leads the Red Crescent Moon.
And a man with a space called a workshop.
The three executives here had been trapped in Ryosuke’s workshop.
Every time I made a mistake, I was locked in the room and experienced hunger, thirst, fatigue, and a torrent of enemies.
And the three of them had already become Ryosuke’s faithful subordinates.
It was submission to overwhelming power.
But if the opponent is not Ryosuke… ?
There was no reason for them to obey.
Among the three executives who were watching, Beyer spoke first.
“I… Are you by any chance the person involved?”
Haha.”
First of all, the voice and laughter were the same as Ryosuke.
The man who smiled like Ryosuke nodded his head and answered.
“Of course it’s me. “Why don’t you at least prove it?”
The man took out an object from his arms.
The object he took out was…
“Wow!”
“Huh!”
“Hmm!”
It was a music box.
The three executives just threw their heads back and couldn’t get up from the sofa.
They also knew it because they had already experienced it several times.
When they open the lid of that music box, they wonder where they go…
“S-sorry!”
“Boo, please forgive me!!
The man put the music box back in his arms and started smiling brightly at them.
Haha, sorry. “The joke went too far.”
“Phew…”
Thanks to the man’s laughter, the three executives could feel their shriveled livers opening up again.
The man laughed heartily as he looked at the three executives.
“Of course I know why you guys are doing that. It must be because my red summoner mark is gone.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
The man nodded his head and began to explain.
“I got rid of it.”
“Uh, getting rid of it… ?”
“Literally. I used indulgences to get rid of it.”
“Indulgence!?”
The three executives were scared and jumped up from the sofa.
Indulgence.
An item known to remove the red summoner mark.
Unlike the pardon, there are only rumors that it exists, and no one has ever seen the item in person.
The item that all red summoners desire, indulgence.
But that indulgence…
“Ji… Real indulgence… Does it exist?”
“Of course. “Why did the mark on my head disappear?”
It was said that Ryosuke had obtained it and had already used it.
As soon as the three executives found out about this, they began to feel sick.
The fact that he missed his chance to escape the Red Summoner without even seeing it…
But they were able to quickly soothe their bitter feelings.
Haha, don’t worry too much. “I will save you too.”
“Really!?”
“Of course. Do you really think I would abandon my subordinates and live comfortably alone?”
“Ahhh… !”
The three executives, who until now had been seen as devils, began to look like gods who had descended from the sky.
And the leader who looked like a god began to give them new orders.
“Starting today, take all of your children, including you, to the first floor.”
“First floor… “Do you mean that?”
“Okay, hide yourself there as much as possible.”
The mission was not to prevent summoners from climbing, like Yang Ji-hyeon’s mission.
The idea was simply to hide quietly in the forest.
Beyer asked, tilting her head.
“In that case, surveillance of Seong Su-ho and his group…”
Ryosuke was so obsessed with Seong Su-ho that even the three executives could feel it.
A monster who thinks he cannot win even if all members of the organization attack him.
I would have been confused if they suddenly gave up on that mission and told me to move to the first floor.
However, their doubts were quickly resolved.
“Where did I suddenly get indulgence?”
“Seo, no way!?”
The leader nodded and answered.
“Yes, I got it by joining hands with this guy.”
“Ahh!”
“Anyway, get ready quickly and go down to the first floor.”
“Then the fourth floor is…” .”
“I leave this to Jihyun Yang.”
Beyer made a slight expression, but in the end he just nodded.
“And those two friends.”
Two gang members who were quietly listening to the story from behind came rushing in.
Two members of the organization close their mouths and listen quietly.
The leader pointed to the two and said.
“From now on, these two will play the role of conveying my words.”
The role of conveying the leader’s words.
The story was that even though their rank was low, they were beings that could not be messed with.
But it wasn’t particularly important to the three executives.
Just…
‘Well, finally…’
‘Is it possible to escape this shitty life?’
Haha… ‘It’s not a dream, right?’
It was just filled with hope that the Red Summoner stigma could be removed.
“That is the end of what I have to say. Go and get ready quickly.”
“””Yes!”””
The three executives began to leave the room, shouting answers filled with hope.
But they are so blinded by hope…
Hehe.”
I left the room without hearing the bitter laughter coming from inside the room.
