Chapter 324 – Gangs of Rome (13)
I murmured contentedly as I opened the pillar of fire like a curtain.
It had to be. If I did my best, my opponent would have been at least a mithril class. Having won so easily in a fight with such a guy, is there any reason not to be happy?
‘I’m lucky, but I’m getting stronger myself.’
I am satisfied and praise myself.
Of course, apart from that head, my hands moved efficiently.
─Whiriririk!
Activate the rune of ᛈ (Perth) with the rune stone you brought while carving ᚨ (Ansuz) with your feet.
Then, with the other hand, he subdued Corentus’ mind and body with ᚦ (Thurisaz) and plugged in a USB cable of flame.
Blood Demonic Art
Double-hand Pumpkin
─Shashashashashak!
While controlling my limbs with sharp concentration, I instantly summoned the soul of a warlock and extracted memories.
There is a limit to the amount of time that the shield of flames can block the gaze of Primor’s party.
And besides, it made such a fuss. There was no way other people wouldn’t come.
As always, if you don’t want to make things bigger, post-processing should be done quickly and accurately.
‘Martial arts… I can’t take much.’
As I copy-pasted the essence of martial arts in my body, I licked my lips in regret.
For now, he absorbs whatever comes his way, but the level of difficulty in training was high when it comes to adamantine ingots and muscle strengthening techniques. Probably 3-4 is the limit.
Doesn’t it take a few minutes to transfer a small video to Google Drive? It was irrational to hope that decades of time could be moved in an instant.
I don’t know if I put a corpse next to me and absorb it step by step like Corutus, but I’m not crazy and I can’t sleep hugging a corpse.
-Jing.
‘Great. The memory extraction ends with this.’
Fortunately, Corutus’ memory did not have a strong protection like Yerna’s.
If this bastard knew the whereabouts of Tirshi, it would be easy to figure out whereabouts with this.
I finished my work like roasting beans in a flash of lightning and came out through the fire curtain. Primor was making the injured escorts drink potions.
〈… Jesus Gay. How did it go?〉
“He’s definitely dead. I was worried about transferring the soul to another body, but I was overly concerned. I will pass on the treatment of the corpse. Feel free to burn it or offer it to your husband’s grave.〉
When she said that, Primor opened her mouth as if her feelings were well.
〈… The death of Henry the Great is a pity.”
– Chuck. Having healed some of her escorts’ wounds or stamina, she knelt down on her knees, and brought her left hand, without her ring finger, to her chest.
When the lord’s wife acted like that, the other party members did the same. Lalilura awkwardly came next to me and stuck to me.
‘Ah, no. You don’t have to.〉
At her words, I refused, hiding my embarrassment.
With this, the work to be done in the name of Yesugei is finished. It was a little Eva to stick with another mafia family because of a few improvised bullshit.
‘It’s not like the mafia in the city will be wiped out just because I mess up.’
Ever since I came to this world, I’ve been harsh on criminals.
That’s because the other world I fell into contained lawlessness and danger similar to that of the American West. In the matter of dying or killing, morality had to be forgotten to some extent.
That’s why I became the man who always kills criminals, but I was aware that it was impossible to wipe out the villains installed in the city.
That would be something the lord or church would do.
If an individual is more than necessary, it will call for the collapse of the rule of law. In that case, it is ordinary citizens who die.
I was a little worried about the Lalilulane Circus, which had a base in Lucragens, but it was just a matter of recommending that they move.
… Uh, does that happen?
I decided to push ahead shamelessly. The other side made an excuse, but it would be more foolish to decline.
I have accomplished the great feat of interrupting the nobility. If this was a game, I would have leveled up as an achievement reward.
Ralilura’s salty cold eyes—you often lied to me so proudly, right? The eyes that look——are painful. To be honest, the maximum damage for the entire day today.
Anyway, at my words, Primor stood up as if he had come to his senses.
“Yeah, it was. We’re running out of time to collect Henry’s remains and finish the rest. However, we have prepared a return gift, so please visit our family at a later date.〉
‘I will think about it. Let’s hurry first.〉
I don’t want to see you again if possible.
I answered while thinking that, and I quickly got rid of the aftermath and turned around with the thought of jumping.
〈–No. It doesn’t have to be.〉
Then, I found a strange man walking down through the open window.
He was a idiot-like man. No, it’s not something to say in the first meeting, but from my point of view, I could only explain it like that.
It looks fine.
Because he is neatly dressed, he is a young man who can be easily dismissed as handsome if he only closes his eyes to the large crucifix he carries on his back. Because of her obscurely long bobbed hair and small face, she even looked androgynous.
But what if that color was pure white from head to toe?
A man who is so white that his hair, clothes, and skin are coming across a sea of blood and corpses of mafia turned into zombies. It was like surrealist art.
A man who pulls out a holy ticket as if he were the FBI.
He looked at us with empty eyes, as if he had cataracts.
〈I’ve visited the practice of pagan mana… Could you please explain what happened?〉
─Gulp.
The wizard broke out in a cold sweat as he swallowed. It must have noticed the skill of the religious man who entered the entry out of the blue.
Bailiff. In religious denominations, it refers to the psycho-slayers who rank just below the Heretic Questioner.
‘Mithril? If not… More?’
I don’t know. He is also a master of fanaticism that even a person who is proud of himself would not want to meet.
To run into such a guy in such a bloody, dark and negative mana-filled space while hiding his identity, wouldn’t this be too unlucky for me, no matter how much I was?
‘No, but fuck. Let’s see, don’t you think I’m a bit stupid?’
They left it alone when they were playing a celebrity mafia game in the front yard of the neighborhood, but now that we’ve killed that bastard, they’re going to do something like this?
Where and what did our executor do before fighting us, did he come and attack us now?
Primor was feeling the same way—or was it because she didn’t want to make the mistake of cheating on a religious scoundrel——she took off her hood and hung up her ID.
Signatio’s eyes moved as if trying to figure out the authenticity of the ID card.
〈… So?〉
Primor stared into his eyes, showing no emotion like an insect, without yielding an inch.
The eyes of the two collided.
I don’t know why there is a confrontation between the aristocracy and the religious class here, but can we go? It seems that our juniors are a bit too picky. In fact, I think I’m a bit tired too.
Primor tugged at his chin and spoke defiantly. At those words, Signatio slowly shook his head.
‘It is a bit misleading. In fact, my brain struggles even to comprehend the doctrine. I don’t want to get into a political dispute with Madam. You will be scolded by the parish priest.〉
He made a compromise that was simpler than he thought. Maybe they are not interested in real vested interest disputes?
If that’s the case, Signatio may have come running regardless of the intentions of the entire church. If it’s a scene where black magic is being used, you can shut up and stick your head in and make an excuse later.
But that was no consolation. It just means that this man is so much a religious person.
Traditionally, a religious fighter is a religious dogma or a way to be extremely violent towards opponents who deviate from one’s own standards!
By the way, needless to say, “Extremeness” In another world is violence.
Just look at the black corners of the cross. Pagan minchikatsu is not a story about others.
─Tuk. A signatio where I overturn Jojin’s corpse with my feet.
Seeing that he doesn’t give a fuck if his shoes or trouser hems get dirty, that’s a crazy guy.
It is also a madman who is immersed in the practice of religious doctrine rather than self-interest.
〈… You mean the Church of Janus?〉
As Primor half-opened his eyes, Signatio said in a clearing.
“Our church cannot afford to turn a blind eye to questionable behavior, and you will want allies to help you get out of this city.”
〈… …〉
At first glance, it is a logical shobu that yields to each other.
However, Signatio seemed to lack the skills to negotiate. If you throw a plausible conclusion first, the other person will doubt and avoid it.
“You doubt it. I understand. Then I promise you.〉
Perhaps he thought so too, Signatio kissed his holy sign and made a stern declaration.
〈… Okay. Thank you for your concession.〉
In Primor’s ear as she spoke, the female thief whispered something.
It probably informed them of the existence of the troops gathered below. I also barely noticed it a while ago.
I lost my concentration because I was busy with this and that, but they were warriors who escaped my senses and gathered. Fighting wasn’t good.
– Knock.
Primor chinned his chin arrogantly, as if trying to hide his original personality.
‘Then do as you swore to God. We also entrust his corpse in return for your loyalty. I’ll see you later, so let’s see you again then.〉
Signatio suddenly looked at me as I tried to reassure myself that it seemed to be going well. See… Fire… Bad for the heart… This…
‘The person over there looks quite different from his companions. Are they also Madame’s escorts?〉
Fuck 1 baby. Don’t be shy and dress modestly.
For the first time in a while, I broke into a cold sweat at the sensation of being targeted by an opponent who seemed to be much stronger than me. If you open up, will you be able to bounce? There were also powerful people under siege?
Ignoring the rest, I inadvertently tried to recharge mana with the seal, but Primor was a woman who knew loyalty.
‘You sound natural. Is there something wrong?〉
Primor crossed her arms and fiercely raised her eyes. Taking that stance made me look like a really bad-tempered young lady.
Signatio lowered his head, covering his cataracted eyes.
─Poof! Saying that, he jumped out the window again.
You’re leaving the door open and jumping through the window, right? Implying that he is a dead person who chews fall damage and walks only on shortcuts?
<... Whoa. I'm tired of talking to the executor.>
Anyway, after kicking out the religious man, Primor wiped the sweat from his cheek and smiled.
I sighed, shook my hands, and stomped on the floor, breaking it.
‘Then we will excuse ourselves at this point. Goodbye.〉
〈… Yes. With the seal given to Yesugei, we deliver words so that you can enter and exit the family.〉
She said as if she was sorry to let me go. Maybe he was even thinking of enlisting this unknown foreigner into his family.
‘The day the fourth tulip blooms in the garden’. If you say so, you will be able to cross the threshold of Armials Mansion.〉
‘I remembered. I would be happy if we could meet again.”
After making a sound I didn’t want to say, I hugged Lalila and went down under her.
I didn’t even see the mafia on the floor below, as if they all jumped out after hearing the sound of battle. Thanks to that, we were able to safely hide in the room and escape by
“Whoa… I was scared~. My back is covered in sweat!”
Lari Lura, who pulled back her robe and unlocked her transformation, was drenched in sweat even though it was winter. I also returned to Nord’s form and relaxed on her shoulders.
“Yes. There’s nothing in the world that goes your way. Well, you seem to have done a lot of things, but to be honest, all you have to do is figure out the next destination.”
“Aha♡ Still, it’s a great development! Senior, you worked hard.”
“Nothing. Lalilura, you worked hard this time too.”
“Eheh~♡ I guess I had some kind of extra income?”
Lala Lura laughing as she shows off her rooted thimble from Corutus.
In terms of extra income, I wasn’t too keen on it, but let’s talk about that in a safe place later.
‘It was a fight where there was a lot to be saved just by getting the Kwon Gak technique.’
“Okay, let’s go back now. Again, it was a lot of hard work.”
Was it because I felt satisfied after thinking about it? I hit my chest as if I had become a senior with a lot of money.
“I have benefited from you a lot, and if there is anything I ask of you, I will do it for you. Is there anything you want to eat?”
“… Huh~? Really?”
Lari Lura, whose eyes lit up, wiped the sweat off my neck with a pink handkerchief and smiled mischievously.
“As expected, senpai, you are brave~♡ You have yet to pay off the debt you owed me the other day, and yet you have the courage to increase the debt again♡! How do you know I like that!”
“Write. Don’t make me regret it three seconds after I said it.”
What is it? Did you say anything wrong? As I frowned, Lalilura giggled and stabbed me in the chest.
“Then senior. Go on a date with me soon.”
The junior, who covered his face with a handkerchief drenched in someone else’s sweat, smiled brightly as if he was feeling better at my surprised reaction.
“Me and my senior. Just the two of us.”
