Chapter 76 – Chapter 76 Seizing the Market-3
Hurry up!
The merchants immediately rose from their seats and pressed against the wall.
The basement stepped forward and spoke to Enlil and Leticia.
“Don’t step out.”
Thud! Thud!
Two stone giants approach.
‘It’s a magic guardian…’
I’ve even heard of the basement.
A type of magic tool, called a guardian that can carry out simple commands.
It is mainly used for bodyguard purposes, but it is said that the quality is completely different depending on the price.
Simplicity and honesty!
When the table in front of her was disturbing, the stone giant pressed it with her hand and broke it, then came to the basement.
The one-eyed elf calmly smoked a cigarette and watched the underground.
‘You want to see my skills. Then…’
The basement wrapped magic around its arm and jumped at the stone giant.
Whiik!
As the underground came within range, the stone giant immediately unleashed his fist.
Unlike his heavy gait, his reflexes were blazingly fast.
Jiha responded by punching him with his fist.
Baek!
Fists made of flesh and fists made of stone collided in the air.
Normally, the flesh and bones would split, but the underground body was strengthened with magic.
Still, I can’t help but feel the pain.
The basement frowned, but the other stone giant next to it raised his fist at the basement.
‘This…’
If you hit this, the first one will attack.
It was just a type with high defense and attack power, so it was annoying to deal with.
Underground summoned the Shadow Hand and grabbed the stone giant’s arm to stop the attack.
I might be able to tie this up for a while.
“Hoo.”
The woman’s exclamation is heard in her ears.
But the arm is not one. The second stone giant tried to hit the head with his free arm.
It doesn’t end there, the first guy in front of you is about to punch him again.
‘Let’s reduce the number for now!’
Fast-forward, Ji-ha threw a fist at the first guy in front of her eyes and entwined the blade of the wind.
It was a special ability that consumed a lot of mana, but it was dangerous if it took time.
Fast!
Unlike the first clash, the fists of the underground and the stone giant’s arms collided in the air trembled.
The upper body of the stone giant, which was torn by the intangible blade created by the underground swinging its arms, was smashed and collapsed.
The first one’s remaining lower body stumbled and collapsed.
And the second stone fist hit the underground head.
“… Ugh.”
The pain of splitting his head, if he hadn’t strengthened his defenses with magical powers, his head would have exploded.
If it had been before Leticia’s blood-sucking, he would have been seriously injured because of his lack of magic power.
As the basement quickly retreated to the range, the remaining giant approached with heavy steps.
Underground clicked his tongue inwardly.
‘I don’t want to give that woman any more information.’
There is only one left, but I want to end this situation without using my special ability.
After thinking for a moment, Jiha stretched out his palm and moved towards the stone giant.
As before, when the enemy came within range, the stone giant threw out his fist honestly.
Jiha, an attack familiar from seeing it three times already, grabbed the stone giant’s arm while moving his palm aside.
“Ahhh!”
The underground, which turned all his remaining magic power into physical strength, grabbed the stone giant’s arm and threw it down.
A 400kg mass of stone flew forward in a low parabola.
He turned to the one-eyed elf who was sitting in a chair watching the situation.
“…”
Pagakak!
There was a strange sound, and the stone giant’s body disintegrated, rolling on his floor.
Blocks of completely decomposed stones rolled across the floor, and the woman sat calmly, not a single hair on her hair was hurt.
The woman who reaped the jangjuk she swung spoke lowly.
“You are doing well.”
“Because I eat and live with this.”
The woman got up from her seat at the answer from the basement.
Her gray hair, grown up to her hips, waved softly.
“You keep your promise. Merchants here will fully support the reconciliation between Blue Seal and Purple Liberation, and will follow the abolition of the common special price.”
“…”
Other traders silently agreed.
Jiha asked while catching her breath.
“What is your name?”
“Iroha.”
The woman, with her coat free of dust, smiled coldly as she looked back to her basement.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve had the experience of saying your name. Iroha Dead Heart.”
“What industry are you in charge of?”
“Service provision business for lonely men, Changgwan operation.”
I didn’t hear it wrong.
It was because Leticia’s face, which had been withdrawn, showed intense disgust.
“Is it worth it?”
“Historically, it’s a literary masterpiece.”
Iroha took one of her papers out of her arms and threw it towards her basement.
On a black note the size of her palm, there were only gray birds drawn all at once.
“If you want to warm up, show it in the store. You will do well.”
“See you next time.”
Iroha pressed her hood down again and left her conference room.
The rest of the merchants looked at each other and then rushed out.
Leticia, who approached, spoke dissatisfiedly as Jiji was still looking down at the paper.
“… No way, but you’re not going to a dirty shop like that, are you?”
“Do you know who that woman is?”
“What?”
She asked, looking down at the paper in the basement.
“Can you do it like that girl?”
“Magical Guardian? It’s nothing.”
Leticia was dumbfounded, but Enlil pointed out what the underground was talking about.
“It’s different to treat it neatly like that. From a seated position, I handled it by moving only my hands, without even shifting her legs or weight. It’s a skill gained from fighting for a really long time.”
“What is so great about that…”
Leticia grumbled in words, but her face agreed.
Setting aside strength, it’s strange that they didn’t know of such a seasoned professional.
Enlil said lowly to the subterranean.
“Judging by the color of your skin, you are a gray elf. It’s the first time I’ve seen it myself.”
“… Nonsense. Was it still there?”
Her face was that she couldn’t believe Leticia, herself an elf.
Looking at the gaze from the underground, Leticia explained.
“I don’t know either. They are a very rare race, and I heard they were destroyed during the Millennium War.”
“…”
The fact that neither of them knew was that Iroha had been hiding her true identity.
‘Well, you’re running a window… They usually don’t even think to find out.’
Leticia’s reaction, unable to hide her disgust the moment she heard it, was natural for a woman.
And all Unique ranks are female.
‘Did you deliberately choose that job to live in hiding?’
She kept the papers in her bosom and organized them.
“Find out what you both can about that woman.”
“… Is it really necessary?”
Leticia’s face was blatantly disliked, but she was sincere.
‘The reason why I attached not one but two stone giants was to check my capabilities. I came after realizing my weakness, my lack of total mana.’
So far, most of the underground’s official victories have been 1-1.
The total amount of magic power was not enough, so I couldn’t even attack continuously.
If he hadn’t obtained the Blade of Wind by vampirizing Leticia recently, if he hadn’t had enough mana, Jiha would have been greatly disappointed in this fight.
It is different from the enemies so far.
“Finally, some head work popped out.”
Underground laughed and looked back at Dudinel.
“Do you know anything about that woman?”
“She’s such a secretive woman that even I don’t know how long she’s been with Warris. This is the third time I’ve actually seen her face.”
“Is the normal level correct?”
“I knew that too until just now.”
It was said that he had the ability to split a stone giant while sitting down, possessing magical powers.
“The woman who was hiding her identity and abilities came to check on me.”
Then, sooner or later, we will meet in another place.
It’s different next time.
This time, I was delayed because I didn’t know the basement, and now I know that there is a woman like that.
The basement has changed its mind.
“Dudinel, let’s draw up an agreement right now. We will separately draw up an agreement stating that this incident will no longer be an issue, an agreement on the free going out of the commons and the abolition of the special price for the commons.”
“Are you really going to do it?”
What Dudinel asked was not only the underground, but Enlil and Leticia, who were listening.
When the two unique members of the Blue Seal and Purple Liberation signed it, the agreement became effective.
“I have to.”
Leticia replied.
She believed in the power of the underworld, and she had no choice but to negotiate if the situation was to be resolved.
“Dark elf, you?”
At the enmity’s request, Enlil looked at the underground.
Jiha didn’t say anything and just looked at her.
“… I will.”
Enlil nodded his head.
Dudinel drafted two copies of the agreement, the Underground House finally confirmed the contents, and it took effect as soon as Leticia and Enlil signed it.
Leticia said after coming out of the mayor’s office.
“Then I’ll go back and tell the elves that the pact is over. And I will send people to return the bodies of the dead elves to the bereaved.”
“Tell me if you have any problems.”
“And…”
Leticia hesitated a bit before she spoke quickly.
“I’ll find out about that one-eyed one, so don’t go to that store.”
“Report as information comes in.”
Leticia’s face was dissatisfied with the answer from the basement, but she soon left.
Enlil the rest asked.
“Now what?”
“I’m thinking of going back and telling the commons…”
The commons of Blue Seal who gained the freedom to go out overnight will be thrilled.
But the basement was still lost in thought.
“… Do you like her that much?”
Enlil asked, stirring, and she nodded her head underground.
“Because I haven’t heard of it until now.”
In order to overthrow this world, the underground planned to make Warris their base first.
Warris was a city of great value, a strategic point that both camps were thirsty to acquire.
So, he captured Enlil and Yura and took control of the Blue Seal’s barracks, and also subdued Leticia and took control of the Purple Barracks.
The mayor, Dudinel, now supported him, and the merchants who saved him money also bowed down.
Now I thought he would step up to the front…
‘There’s one piece left.’
Iroha was in the middle of a duck.
How do I cook this?
As the underground moved out of the city hall thinking, Enlil silently followed.
“… What is it?”
When Enlil asked someone with a serious face, he looked in front of the underpass.
In front of the city hall building, a one-eyed elf with a long bamboo stick was laughing coldly.
It was waiting for the underground to come out.
“Don’t be serious, Unique. I have no blades in my hands, and I am alone.”
“…”
Enlil kept her vigilant.
Of course, there was no way Enlil would lose even if he was an opponent of a unique grade, gray elf from the legend.
However, the fact that there is no information, the clean movement shown earlier worries me.
“Do you have any business left?”
Instead of the vigilant Enlil, the Underworld asked.
Iroha nodded his head while holding the jangjuk in his hand.
“There’s something I want to tell just the two of us.”
“A girl I’m seeing for the first time secretly tells a secret story, the shyness of an adolescent boy is about to revive after 10 years?”
“I thought you might want to know about me.”
“Is self-consciousness a characteristic of elves?”
Iroha let out a bitter laugh.
“If you live long enough, that’s how it will be. I took the time because I had a story I wanted to ask you, but won’t you listen? Thanks to me, today’s work must have ended neatly.”
It means that the basement was judged to be capable of destroying the magic guardian, but it was deliberately cleaned up.
“…”
Underground shook his head.
This woman had calculated in advance how the underground would move and jumped ahead.
It won’t work if you start swinging around.
“No matter what you say, I decide whether to keep that secret. So just tell me.”
“I don’t care, but… Are you okay? It must be difficult for an innocent young lady to handle.”
“It’s the first time I’ve ever heard of being naive.”
Enlil showed a smile that was not the same.
Arrogant and arrogant, this was Enlil before he came into contact with the underground.
No, even after meeting, he shrank only in front of the underground, and it was always like this for others.
“Then follow me. Blue seal common and unique. I will guide you to my castle.”
“Is there any reason why I bother to splurge?”
“Is it normal for men to go crazy?”
The reaction of Iroha and the basement was strange.
In fact, if the owner of the Changgwan invites you, ordinary men will be very welcome.
“I haven’t been out in a while, and I don’t want to be out there for long. I want to go back, wash my body, and have a warm drink.”
“… It must be a trap.”
Enlil glared at Iroha and spoke quietly.
She shook her head underground.
“If it’s a trap, I’ll dig something more proper.”
Iroha said calmly to the comment of the underground.
“Then how about this? I’ll tell you who the Blue Seal Unique is, and what purpose he’s coming for.”
“… You have prepared well.”
With this word, Jiha noticed that the opponent had approached with considerable information.
“Because I have a lot of time and nothing to do.”
As the gray elf looked at her with one eye, Jiha decided.
“Egg plant.”
Sometimes you have to jump into the tiger’s den.
