Iron Blood Conquers Expansion 21

Chapter 21 - Chapter 21 Hierarchy-3

Three days later, the barracks library.
The basement was sitting in a cove, lost in thought.

"Even if I have money, I can't use it..."

In the fight against Boujing, Jiha obtained 30 million reels.
The normal level was a lot of money that could be earned by working for a year, but it didn't mean much to the underground.
Eating and sleeping is a natural solution in the barracks.
Thoughtful commons tended to invest in weapons or armor with magic added when they had money.

"The problem is that they don't sell humans."

Everything sold in the barracks tool shop was for non-human use.
In the first place, humans are extremely rare among the commons.
Even if there was, it was an outrageous price.
Does it make sense to pay 50 million rels for a dagger with faint magic added? It's 5 million reels for a handful?
If it was just heavy, how could I use it using magic?
However, it was inconvenient when the size was different.

"Even if they place an order, they say it will take six months..."

Even if you have money, you cannot buy items. It is not a problem that will be resolved anytime soon.

"For now, put aside the weapon..."

As Jiha changed his thoughts, magical power covered his entire right arm.

"It did increase."

After repeatedly sucking Enlil's blood, his magic power increased dramatically.
I can feel it getting stronger.
It wasn't difficult to subdue Blue's Commons now.
The purple commons shouldn't have any problems either.

"The problem starts after this..."

The top level is the problem.
Underground thought that his strength was at the bottom of the rarity level.
No matter how you win the rare grade, it was not enough to deal with the unique grade, Legend.
Now, even sucking the blood of a small animal won't show it.

Does that mean you suck Enlil's blood again?
I can't even donate blood anymore. At least a month had to pass before Enlil's blood was again sucked satisfactorily.

"I need a woman with a blood-sucking rare rating or higher. Once two or three... There are several candidates."

Absence of armament, stopping the growth of magical power,
But I couldn't let go.
As the basement gave its will, a hand that naturally came out of the shadows opened the book and turned the pages on its own.
Then he picks up the teacup and brings it to her subterranean mouth.

"The Shadow Hand can only operate within my shadow. As magic attribute increases, careful movements are possible, and the weight that the hand can handle is about 200kg..."

Jiha practiced to get used to the shadow hand and saw results.
Now you can use it like your own hand.

Tumble.

Under the sound of footsteps, the underground mana sank and hid her shadow hand.
Uben approached and sat down in front of the basement.

"You really like the library."
"What happened?"

In order to fight Purple's Quodoran, I had to know in advance what date and what number of matches it would be.

"It says it will come out the day after tomorrow. Fourth match."
"Good work."

Now you can call Enlil and go out that day.
Uben asked curiously.

"But are you really going to be okay? Giant Quodoran has a reputation for being the strongest of the Purple Commons right now. It's not much different even if we add it together."
"So you have to kill me."

Stepping on a guy with a reputation for being strong was the fastest way to prove himself.
Uben watched, then took something out of his pocket and pushed it towards the basement.
It was a shortsword, a sword as thick as the forearm.

"It is a human sword. There's no problem even if you endow it with magical power."
"..."

Jiha squeezed the hilt and felt satisfied inside.
I am grateful that it is just the right size for my hand.

"Where are you from?"

However, these weapons are not sold in Blue Seal's barracks tool shop.

"There are also rare level humans, so there are weapons for humans with magical powers added in Wordsland. But you have to go through a very long and complicated procedure to get into the barracks, right?"

The commons were slaves, and the weapons and armor they used in the Summoning War entered the tool store only after going through strict screening by each faction.
Really good weapons don't come in tool stores.
When the slaves start a riot, wouldn't it be a hassle if you had a good weapon?

"I smuggled it in through the purple side. Even if there is a problem, postpone the responsibility with Purple. Don't say I gave it to you."

It was a story of contraband.
Uben added.

"I don't need money. If you win."
"It's a burden because you're doing so well."

As the underground trembled, Uben shook his head.

"This helped the purple side as well. Quodoran also hates the Purple Commons quite a bit. Strong, but acting too carefree."
"You asked me to deal with the soldier of interest. Great."

It's better if he's not popular.
If the underground wins, the hearts of the purple commons will be easily inclined.

"This is not the time to act like you've already won. Quodoran isn't just strong, it's cunning. Be careful, for you don't know what to do."
"For example?"
"They heard your story and started a background investigation. You should have already figured out that you really have magical powers."

Well, that's natural. Jiha nodded and Uben rose from his seat.

"I said everything. From now on, I'll see you somewhere where there's no smell of books."

When Uben left, Jiha grabbed the sword and tried to use magic.
Blue magic entwines the sword.
In this way, no matter if the opponent is a giant or whatever, the weapon will not break.

"It's okay..."

Weapons were reinforced ahead of the decisive battle.

Suppose we call Enlil and go to the match the day after tomorrow.
Jiha hid the sword in her bosom and left the library.
I was thinking of hiding it until the day after tomorrow.

"Because he's investigating me too..."

Jihaga's declaration that he would avenge Hakal's enemies reached the ears of the target, Quodoran.
It wasn't counting.
With a guy like Uben secretly arguing with Purple, the opposite could happen.
Underground ordered Uben to gather information about Quodoran, and Quodoran must have someone from Blue Seal to collect information about underground.

"There is a high probability that I even figured out what I was doing wrong at the tool store..."

The more a person rolls their head, the less capable they are of responding to situations that deviate from their thoughts.
If you hide the sword and take it out, it will come in handy.
I heard the sound of footsteps in my ears underground.
The light gait that came up from the bottom, the red hair that grew to the waist caught my eyes.
It was Yura, the succubus.

Her confused head dropped, she was coming up slowly, unaware of her subterranean gaze.
Seeing her voluminous body and smooth nape in contrast to her innocent face, Jiha narrowed her eyes.
Yura, who was coming up, was surprised to discover her basement belatedly.
Looking hastily to her left and right, she awkwardly greeted her as she stepped back.

"Ah, Mr. Underground..."
"..."

Jiha did not receive a greeting and just looked at it.
How does Yura herself accept that she has had sexual intercourse before?
She had to know that so she could finalize her response.
When Ji-ha deliberately didn't say anything, Yura was flustered and avoided her eyes left and right... Then she let out a big sigh and bowed her head.

"I-I'm sorry before."
"..."

Apologize first?
Jiha looked at the white whorl of hair slightly exposed in the red hair.

"I-I lose my temper and stop... I'm really sorry. Are you not hurt anywhere?"
"If there is?"
"Yes? How hurt are you?"

Yura raised her head, and she made a puzzled face.
Her basement, looking at her bewildered, said calmly.

"What are you talking about while standing? Shall we change seats?"
"Oh, no, that's a bit..."

As Yura shook her head right away, Jiha frowned at her.
Yura then attributed her work to herself, but at the same time she was wary of her underground.
Like she's afraid that what happened before will happen again.

'Are you blaming yourself for the succubus' instincts running out of control? Still, shouldn't I hold some responsibility for pushing me?'

Too ignorant of men
Or maybe your personality is really meek.

"I wasn't in a bad mood either, so there's no need to panic."
"Oh, no. No. From now on, I will be careful not to do that. Certainly."

The basement got a little tricky.
She was wary of Yura being alone with him for an unexpected reason.

"Where are you going?"

If the front doesn't work, turn around and dig in.
Yura seemed quite relieved when her topic changed.

"Ah, I heard that the Commons are depressed after the Ogre passed away. So these days, when I have time, I'm looking around the barracks."
"The situation has been sorted out. Do not care about it."

The atmosphere was turbulent due to Hakarl's death, so the Unique class was patrolling directly.
The nuance was that the rare ranks, middle management positions, pushed Yura's back and made her patrol.

'He's a real hogu.'

Enlil would not have dared to ask such a favor.
It was said that Yura directly sold her footsteps at the request of the lower ranks, but did not show any objection.
He is a succubus who has become too docile.

"Ah, did it end without problems?"

Yura nodded her head and looked at her.
She seemed to want her basement to finish her story, as she wanted to get away quickly.
If the underground didn't allow her to go, wouldn't she be embarrassed to stay?

"Haven't you heard of Hogu?"
"Yes? Is this a new class?"
"... Oh what You might see it that way."

There is a shelter under the common on the lowest floor.
The basement concluded the story and solved the story.

"I've sorted things out for now, but I want to talk to you, a unique rank, about the future of commons. Some sensitive stories can come out, so in a place where no one else sees."
"That's a bit..."
"Enlil hates me, so she doesn't talk well. She even despises Common."

Jiha stared at Yura.

"That's why I want to talk with you as a common representative."
"Oh, but..."

Yura seemed to want to avoid being alone with the underground as much as possible.

"Wasn't it your job to listen to the stories of common people?"
"... Eww. But."

Yura was more perplexed, but her refusal was stubborn.
She was visibly wary, afraid it might happen again with the underground.
There is no point in pushing it any further.
Then you have to pull a bit.

"How about the library? There are no people even during the day, so it is suitable for private conversation. It's an open space, so there's little chance that the situation you're worried about will happen."
"Oh, is it a library?"

The resistance on Yura's face slightly decreased.
I don't think the same thing would happen if it was an open space.

"At this point, I have conceded as much as possible. Let's take care of each other, sort out what needs to be done, then let's meet and talk."
"..."
"Or are you going to avoid talking to me for the rest of your life? It sounds like you're going to blatantly discriminate against me."

When the underground presses on, Yura is perplexed, but nods slowly.

"Yes, I understand."
"Then see you tomorrow."
"I'm sorry, but that's a bit... I have to go to my regular report tomorrow."

It was said that it was difficult because there was a prior agreement.
Well, if you're unique, you must be busy.

"Then when?"
"I'll be fine in four days."

Too far.
The showdown with Quodoran is two days later, is it too much to watch before then?
When Yura looked at her awkwardly, she Jiha nodded her head.

"Okay, don't forget to meet just the two of us at the library in four days, without wearing anything. That is the request as a representative of the common class."

Without hesitation, she called herself the representative of the Common.
If you get rid of Quodoran, everyone will admit it, and if there is a person who rebels, you can suppress it.

"... Yes."

Yura accepted the underground request.
As if reaffirming her resolve, Yura tilted her head and carefully watched her.

"All right then. I won't tell you the details then. Go."
"Yes, then goodbye."

Yura greeted her quickly, but spread her wings and hurriedly flew back the way she had come.
She let out a wry smile from the underground at her virtual flight.

'You're pretty much on guard. Is it natural...'

It's a bit unexpected that Yura is blaming herself.
If possible, she wanted to meet and suck blood with Quodoran before the decisive battle, but she couldn't help it because she had to report to the top.

"If you overdo it, I might tell you above. You have to hold it down for sure..."

After tearing apart the quo doran, suck the blood of that succubus to further enhance her magical power.
She is a woman who is too kind and docile to be taken advantage of.
If you let it go, someone will eat you up the spine.

'Well, I'll skip it before that.'


Is there gold without an owner on the side of the road?
You have to pick it up faster than the others.
