Chapter 313 – Gangs of Rome (2)
As I expected, the mafia in charge of the transaction was a sucker.
I subdued and stunned all the cubs who ran away, and knocked out the one who seemed to be the representative.
─Wow.
Turning the duffel bag over, at a glance, it looked like it was worth a few gold.
Even though this amount of money is coming and going, there are no shoulders that use some strength. Is it safety insensitivity? If it were me, I wouldn’t have attached these pathetic subordinates to a transaction that cost hundreds of millions of won.
‘… Since the faces of the talented members of the family will be known, did you think you wouldn’t be able to escape when they were caught?’
Thinking so, I trampled on the mafia’s chest.
‘Who did you do business with here? Don’t be shy and answer. I heard what you guys were talking about from the middle.〉
‘Huh, heh heh. Whatever you’re talking about…〉
Despite his broken ribs, Mafia held out his flippers. Even with such evidence, the courage to use brute force was admirable, but it was only a trivial last resort.
‘Yes, I understand. It’s annoying to clean up the corpse, so let’s just kill you and finish it.〉
I collected mana on the soles of her feet and spewed them out.
It’s different from when I defeated the Wolhyang family. Isn’t it a place where you can just kill and leave? Even though it was used as a trading place for the mafia, it looked like a logistics warehouse for innocent merchants.
─Kooung!
After receiving her cardiopulmonary arrest, Mafia vomited her saliva and died.
Through a process that is now cumbersome to explain anew, I was able to reveal a truthful answer to his soul.
〈… Wizard?〉
The mafia, who confessed that he belonged to the Ignis family, said so.
Ignis family.
They are the 2nd longest history of the 3 Mafia.
‘Which reagent is it? Is it an illegal drug?〉
Mafia spirits answering questions. All other pups are knocked out by the stun-sleep gas tech.
So I didn’t have to worry about seeming like I was talking to myself or being considered a necromancer.
〈… What does your boss say about the deal?”
〈You said you do it for the purpose of money laundering or erasing your purchase history.〉
As I listened to his answer with my eyes closed, I filled in the reasoning puzzle.
〈What does the wizard look like?〉
〈This is a man wearing a robe and bandages wrapped around his body. Every time I traded, there was a stench that made me want to go away from the rain-soaked homeless. And the smell of perfume.〉
“Didn’t it smell like a rotting corpse?”
Mafia pondered over his dull head before replying. I half-opened my eyes.
‘That bastard.’
The Sifalum that had been punching Lalilura.
At that time, it seems that the bastard manipulated the undead corpse and traded magic reagents with the Ignis family.
‘Because black magicians can’t buy things from the wizard guild even if they have money.’
The black magicians of this world are, so to speak, terrorists.
Even if they had money, they couldn’t buy the necessary ingredients, so they must have been dealing with the mafia like this.
The Ignis family acted as a purchasing agent, so to speak.
‘… In terms of elimination, warlocks are the Corbona family.’
The possibility of being the Ignis family is 0%. It’s stupid to deal with people from the same family like this.
It is also unlikely that he belonged to Anulus, a Kitai mafia. If you are a member of the 3 major mafia families, the only remaining possibility is the Corbona family.
Didn’t it happen that it was the Corbona family who requested the kidnapping of Tyrsi by the Wolhyang family?
Although there is a possibility that he is a freelance warlock.
〈… Did he break the barrier in the warehouse? How do you get in and out of that barrier?〉
– Basrak.
I searched his corpse and found a wooden plaque.
Even with Odin’s eyes, it is not a magic item with magic added.
‘If I had this, I’d set up a barrier that I could pass through.’
It is easy to understand if you think of the barrier of the unicorn warlock, which only virgins and virgins could pass through.
First of all, since it’s not enchanted, I thought I could take it with me without worrying about being tracked down.
I sighed as I put the wooden plaque in my pocket.
‘I guess this… It’s like Immortalis, isn’t it?’
Warlocks = The perception that they are those scumbags is too much of a leap.
However, looking at such elaborate barriers and financial power, he was never like an ordinary black magician. Black magic proficiency was also threatening, so I said everything.
1. A member of Immortalis intervened in a Mafia conflict.
2. The black magician mafia joined 〈Immortalis〉.
It’s probably one of these two, but from my point of view it’s from there to there.
‘At worst… Like the Golem Subjugation Team, there might be an incident that overthrows a city.’
I crossed my arms and groaned.
〈Immortalis〉 Was a group that was uniquely different from the idiots I had met.
Henir, a mad environmental protection group, and friends.
Romanian Red Guards
These two were a criminal organization with a close bond and a relationship similar to that of a superior.
However,
‘These bastards feel more like a social gathering of warlocks than an organization.’
Think about it.
Even though the unicorn warlock hatched a grand plan to hunt down Nefertiti and grind Sargadis to drink, wasn’t he alone throughout the plan?
Besides, that bastard even had personal interactions with Yerna.
That reveals the individualistic temperament of the members of Immortalis.
Although these cubs were divided into executives and ttakari, they were all those who were only interested in their own success.
Well, if it was natural, it was natural.
Black magicians are criminals with the mindset that it doesn’t matter if their bodies are ruined by darkness and negative mana, as long as they can polish their magic.
‘… It was the Wolhyang family’s backwater that kidnapped Tyrsi.’
And Temurgul, the boss of the family, was virtually no different from a slave to a warlock.
Because the warlock could turn him into an undead fighting game character whenever he wanted.
‘… It must have been because I had previously applied magic to turn that bastard into an undead in an instant.’
Temur Gul is a snobbish asshole who used to see Lari Lura and reveal her desires.
It is unlikely that he would have had the procedure on his own.
Whether it was tricked or forced, it meant that the black magician was such an absolute power that Temurgul couldn’t utter a sound even if his body was remodeled.
‘The problem is, why did you target Tyrsi?’
No, in fact, it didn’t matter too much about ‘why’ I was aiming for.
The important thing is, maybe the planned kidnapping wasn’t the instigation sent by the
“… Fuck it, don’t think like a dick.”
I patted my head, feeling the ominous feeling rise again.
The possibility that I was deliberately trying to forget ran through my neurons. I almost broke the wooden plank I was holding in my pocket in the feeling that cold water had been poured on my optimistic head.
“No way. Probably not it won’t be…”
While muttering so much, what comes to mind is the laboratory of the Unicorn Warlock.
A human head rotting in a wooden barrel.
It was an evil sorcery that damaged the soul’s self-consciousness by burying the skull that sealed the soul in a wooden barrel and rotting it. The Unicorn Warlock mass-produced golems to use as subordinates.
What if the kidnapping of Tyrsi was in the same context?
What if, from the very beginning, she was treated to turn her into an undead, and she was going to use it as a starting point for her big plan?
Aww… !
I gnashed my teeth and clenched my fists.
Of course, this is speculation without evidence.
Still, it has been several tens of days since Tyrsi disappeared from Lucregens. It was hard to think that there was a chance when this speculation was correct, even if it was one in a million, one in a billion.
‘… I need to find that warlock.’
I had to dig through the stronghold of the Corbona family or check all the strong people in the city the birds found.
Let’s report to the young lady and get support.
A newly transformed Veronica would be able to deliver a letter using
If the warlock pup is the kidnapper, the whereabouts of Tyrsi will be revealed.
If he is also an intermediate subcontractor, he just needs to dig up the upper line.
It was when I gritted my teeth thinking that far. I sensed the projectile aiming at my shoulder and twisted quickly.
─Peyoung!!
The shiny silver arrow as if paralyzed poison evaporated the souls of the mafia in line of fire.
‘You didn’t notice until I was attacked?’
Aside from the fact that he was distracted, another formidable enemy appeared. I clicked my tongue and turned around.
Was it me or the Mafia’s soul?
Depending on which one it is, the identity of the enemy and the treatment after suppression will also change.
Grinding my teeth fiercely with a face wearing a mask, I witnessed the assault spear flying as if not giving me any respite to counterattack. This guy had to come right in front of me to barely detect his presence.
Wedge love liquid—!
A short flying spear. I unfolded my skills.

Fire Tornado
While casting the triple axel, he drew the Taegeuk of Jwibulnori with the blue flames of the Blood Magic Ball.
The assailant did not dare to approach the sprayed flames.
I widened the gap and grasped the appearance of the enemy.
The opponents who fought in close combat were raiders equipped with assault spears and shields like cavalrymen. Even though I was wearing a robe, my eyes could see through the armor underneath.
‘You said he wore full body armor and approached right in front of me?’
Then, that armor is a magic item.
In another world, the level of equipment was an indirect measure of the wearer’s skill. While keeping an eye on the knight’s movement, I also checked the location where the arrow flew.
‘The arrow was pierced at an upward angle of 45 degrees. ──Is it a window?’
I rolled my eyes covered by the mask.
An archer was standing on the window sill above the front door of the warehouse.
A woman who climbed the moon
Her robes and her mask hid her true identity, but her standing posture showed aristocratic dignity. Gakgung also looked expensive, and it was a magic item at a glance.
She said as she hung the arrow through her string.
The voice of the replying knight was thin. Both are women
I made a frown as I turned my fist wrapped in flames into a sword.
‘… Aren’t these humans the mafia?’
If you look at the exchange of passwords, it’s a premeditated attack.
But is there any reason to raid this trading floor with just the two of you?
First of all, the three-generation family wouldn’t have to do that. That’s why these women are not the mafia, the guards, or the Heretic Questioner…
‘… No, honestly, I don’t care.’
Since the parts I attacked were my shoulders and limbs, I don’t think I was going to kill anyone, but I had the right to counterattack in self-defense.
When people are in a bad mood, isn’t it the first bread?
They must have been prepared to hit them.
I abandoned the thought of resolving a quarrel that might have been a misunderstanding with words. You can give them a few shots and ask them what they are doing.
Boooung-!!
The knight thrust out her spear. I set up the capital and ignorantly bounced the spear.
She seemed to be surprised by the power of my Blood Beast Mastery, but pushed her shield with her other hand. I sensed by inspiration that mana was gathering there.
The knight holding the shield whispered.

Predicting that it would be an offensive technique, I used Taekwondo’s Jangbeop to hit the shield.
─Twoong!! The side of the shield hit by the hook-like hand turned toward the sky. From there, electricity spurted out like a stun gun connected to an industrial battery.
‘Is this a suppression technique?’
All defense and defense shields were obstructed. I blinked.
‘Remove the shield first.’
I aimed at the knight’s loophole and tried to launch Calamity Horn. Even if you defend it, because if the mana penetrates her body and breaks her arm, she will be unable to hold the shield.
─Peyoung!!
Of course, the archer did not ignore it.
An arrow that flew like a ghost hit my arm and stopped my movement.
However, the archer was astonished even after succeeding in the attack. This is because her arrows ricocheted off the defense of her giant skin armor and beast regression inner armor mode.
She withstood the attack and I also kicked her tongue. I didn’t take action because I believed in my defense, but the power of the arrows was stronger than I thought.
Her right shoulder was pushed slightly as if she had received a shoulder bun, and her kill angle was missed. The knight widened his distance, perhaps concentrating on assisting the archer.
‘I won’t miss it.’
I’m just grateful if you keep your distance. I changed my mana.
When I use blood magic, I keep using the rune of ᛒ (Berkanan).
In addition, it is easy to create new magic by combining the existing magic formulas analyzed with Odin’s eyes.

Mana, sitting on my forearm, let out a shrill roar and spread her wings of flame.
I threw it into 【Gerture】’s herbivore.

The elegantly extraordinary Suzaku exploded over the knight’s shield.
