Chapter 260 – Chapter 260 – Book of Alienation-8
Alex stared down into the basement with bloodshot eyes as he clenched his fists on his table.
But what if the young master gets angry?
He shuddered, ignoring the basement.
“Even if you enter Ouroboros, you won’t have to stand in line. Are your lines really good? Rather, I think it would be better to enter through Louchen.”
“…”
There was no way there would be affection and loyalty between the guys who treated the members as consumables.
It was clear that the five kings would not trust each other and keep them in check.
“… You mean to be hostile to Ouroboros.”
“You are a middle manager. Just because I’m fighting you, does that mean I’m hostile to the organization as a whole? Not the Five Kings, but the Sun King? Are you a country soon?”
Alex shuddered and abruptly stood up from his seat.
“The story will end here.”
“Sit down, idiot. The story is still beginning.”
As Alex wheezed, the basement smirked.
“If you don’t like both, there is a third option.”
“… What is it?”
Alex quickly calmed down and sat back down.
The top goes crazy when Gasiel is mentioned, but other than that, he was a cool-headed and competent guy.
‘This is really…’
The basement was dumbfounded to the inside.
Alex must have had his arms, he had a good brain and he was a good talker. He had a solid political position as well as sociability.
He was able to sew a high-ranking officer of a secret society out to turn the world upside down.
However, all those advantages become useless in front of the name Gasiel. Doesn’t he become a boy full of loopholes?
“Don’t your gang members know what I know?”
“…”
“Even if you don’t know, there are no eternal secrets. It takes a bit of work.”
Alex seemed to have something to say, but he was cautious.
I don’t know how far the underground knows, so I’m trying to save my words.
After being slapped on the cheek, Ji-ha, who became an adult, spoke softly.
“Your rivals will soon notice. Let’s cover it before then.”
“… What are you going to do?”
“An important member of Ouroboros has already entered this city. He deserved to be a king of five, but he was a bad guy.”
Jiha, who mentioned Louchen, smiled meaningfully.
“You can put all the blame on him.”
“… He’s a terrifying force. Isn’t he someone to be recklessly hostile to?”
“Can’t you win too?”
When the underground asked provocatively, Alex was lost in thought for a long time.
“We have never fought each other with all our might. It’s about a 4-to-6 though.”
Alex coolly admitted that he was a little behind.
When he rises to a high position, his pride grows stronger, and he does not hesitate to admit that he is inferior.
He was so cool.
‘If it wasn’t for the real Gasiel, he’d be a normal guy.’
Jiha kept that fact in mind and said.
“Even so, can’t we get rid of it if the two of us join forces?”
“… Why are you antagonizing Lou Chen?”
“The two of us don’t get along very well… There is a problem with that sister.”
“You mean Pie, Amout?”
Ji-ha did not even put saliva on her mouth and lied without hesitation.
“Me and Py-Lan became close, but Lou Chen intervened and tried to kill me without stopping there… Can’t you sit down and die?”
“How stupid.”
Alex said the same as everyone else.
If it was my sister’s job, I would become a completely different person.
“But Lou Chen is not a man who listens easily. He is a man like a wolf.”
“If the two of us work together, we can hunt. If you combine my forces with your political power, we can get rid of Louchen and then weave him and Gasiel’s disappearance.”
“… The dead don’t talk.”
Alex suddenly adjusted his posture and looked down at his basement.
His searching eyes, underground, spoke naturally.
“In exchange for my help, there is one condition. I want to postpone dedicating Unique to Ouroboros.”
“Why?”
“I am still enjoying it. If you get tired of eating and eating, then give it to me. I want to ask for your understanding, but you have to say something. Even if you are the same five kings, don’t you already have a seat in the organization and have a say?”
“…”
Alex looked down into the basement and nodded slowly.
In terms of his way of thinking and values, there is no doubt that he believes in the words of the underground.
He didn’t think he would have the guts to resist the gigantic organization Ouroboros, nor did he think he had any reason to refuse the high position of the Five Kings.
He tossed a horse to see the basement.
“Woman, there are plenty of things in the world, aren’t there? If you get tired of using this, you can find the next woman.”
“Yes. You know me well.”
Alex smiled mildly, but… In the eyes of the underground, he was a complete madman.
‘Has he been so obsessed with Gasiel that his eyes go round at the mention of his name, but doesn’t he think that others can be like that?’
Alex’s words and actions were established only in that way.
“Great. So let’s think about how to promote Low Chen. Even though he is alone, he must never be caught off guard. Because he… Because he is the Prince of Shades.”
“Somehow, just looking at his face made me unlucky.”
“We are somewhat right. I’ve always wanted to say that too, but seeing Jiha do it makes my heart feel open.”
Alex gave a friendly smile.
He knows that the underpass is just a play, but… My heart was freed.
‘This guy’s speech skills are amazing.’
The skill of choosing words, the tone of voice and the harmony with the smile melt people’s hearts.
No matter how cold and cruel a person is… It is difficult to be cold-hearted to someone who tickles an itch in your heart.
Alex had an excellent sense of empathy for others.
“So what is the prince’s ability?”
“The individual is strong, but… You can bring the shade to Wordsland.”
“Without magic stones?”
If he had a magic stone, he could summon a being from another dimension.
However, what Alex insisted on saying was that Low Chen was possible even without a magic stone as a catalyst.
“Yes, it comes at a cost, but he can do it. So he was granted a special position right under the Five Kings in Ouroboros.”
Alex said in passing.
“The Shades did not create a race called demons by touching human children for no reason. They’re trying to build a passage, a sort of tunnel, that will bring them back to Wordsland. Among them, the most successful ghost is Low Chen.”
“What about that little sister, Pyran?”
“Well, I don’t know too much about that. In fact, Ouroboros tried to take out Pyran a few times, but Lou Chen was blatantly against it, and she replaced it with other plans. I was dissatisfied with Lou Chen’s actions, but there is nothing to say because the plans on her behalf have succeeded.”
Alex has already articulated whether he considers the underground to be on his side.
‘But he doesn’t tell me his weakness. Even though I know that I am not alone and my forces are strong, there must be a countermeasure against it, but I keep hiding what it is.’
But underground it didn’t matter.
‘I get information about Louchen from Alex, and I get information about Alex from Louchen. Then they collide and turn it into a big fight, and they both deal with it by using it as an excuse for independence.’
With this plan, I will finally raise the flag.
Jiha nodded her head after making up her mind.
“Okay, thank you for the information from Louchen. What is that price?”
“That I have no information about. I’m sure he can’t be summoned at random, but just because he’s alone, don’t assume he’s what he appears to be.”
“I will.”
Underground nodded.
Alex smiled and raised his glass.
“Now then, shall we toast?”
“Okay.”
Underground clinked drinking glasses.
Laughing at the man who will soon become a corpse.
After an unexpectedly friendly time passed, Alex got up from his seat.
“It was a very pleasant meeting today. I will be preparing for the subterranean ceremony to meet the dragon, so let’s keep in touch.”
“I’ll ask for information about Lou Chen when it comes in.”
“Of course.”
Alex smiled meaningfully and turned around.
The eagle beast, Jutem, who hadn’t said a word, was dumb, so he followed.
Yura whispered so that the people around her could not hear.
“Sir Jiha, may I contact you?”
“Just send it.”
If they attacked with the troops deployed around them, they could catch Alex, but it wasn’t the right time.
‘No, I might not be able to catch it.’
Alex praised Louchen as great and talked about his abilities, but he didn’t say a word about himself.
If Louchen is the man who could have been the Five Kings, then Alex is already the Five Kings.
He was not an easygoing talent.
If only Gasiel’s name is mentioned, it gets messy… He’s a bastard with almost no loopholes other than that. It had to be seen that there was a defense plan in case the underground presses down with troops.
‘Louchen must know some information about Alex. The problem is that the relationship between me and Lou Chen is very bad…’
As soon as we met each other, we started fighting each other, and even looking at it again, we couldn’t have a peaceful conversation.
Jiha went back to what she and Yura had previously shared.
“What about Pyran?”
“Firan-sama would do pretty much anything if it was Ashira-sama’s request. In the first place, it’s really rare for Ashira-sama to ask her others.”
It was a well-known fact.
Yura coquettishly whispered hotly into her underground ear on purpose, even though it was out of range for others to hear.
“Would it be okay to ask to be Jiha-sama’s plaything?”
“It’s not like that.”
When the basement coldly cut it off, Yura looked embarrassed.
I wondered if Jiji wanted to do this because he wanted a pyran, but if it was like that, he would have had a pyran right away.
‘Louchen is weak against Pyran. Even if no one else knows, she listens to her words of her pyran and even tries to protect her.’
If Alex’s weakness was Gasiel, Louchen’s weakness was Pyran.
‘Then I’ll have to use Pyran to meet Lou Chen and get the information out.’
Underground nodded.
“Yura, call Ashira and ask for tea. And if you insinuate, let the pyran also participate.”
It is said that Yura has built up a close relationship with Pyran, so there should be no problem with her.
Underground has already subdued Pyran with a whip. The next time she had to throw carrots at her disposal.
At her subterranean command, Yura happily nodded her head.
“Yes, is there anything else you want me to do?”
“What underwear are you wearing?”
“Yes?”
Yura did not wear anything special because the revealing top and bottom that she usually wears are actually used as underwear.
“There is, but. Ah, … Do you want to have fun while taking off your underwear?”
Yura was shy, but her eyes lit up with anticipation.
At night she might be embraced by the Underworld, she went ahead, but that wasn’t what her Underworld said.
“Go to Barjet and make him wear some proper clothes and underwear. I’m at the inn, check with Uben for the location.”
“Are you Barjet? Yes.”
Yura nodded his head even though he didn’t quite understand.
Yura is lithe and calm, so she should be able to get close with Barjet relatively easily.
Since they have a common feature of having a uniquely voluptuous body, they can share the know-how of choosing underwear.
‘To make me order the rest of the day. You’ll understand next time.’
She brushed her thoughts off with a wry smile.
“Well then…”
If the basement starts a fight with either Alex or Louchen, the two will join forces and attack.
It becomes a 1v2 fight.
No need to. Even though they are from the same organization, they set a fight between two cold-hearted guys.
After such a big fight, both of them cut their necks, and he only eats the result.
It was the beginning of the Independence Plan.
