Chapter 513 – Disrupting Species (17)
Every time he thought of Dana, he was hit and returned to Aliseek.
─Noisy!
Alishik, who returned after a few days, was much more crowded than last time.
As it is a tourist-restricted country, the percentage of foreigners who came aiming for the pyramids was at least high about two weeks ago, but now there are many locals who seem to be familiar with turbans or desert clothes.
─Kikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkkikkki
And the puppets they bring are often seen.
It is said that when you raise a puppy or a child, even on the same street as usual, you will notice a dog walking or a baby stroller, but this time it will not be that kind of story.
They would have come to participate in a skill contest.
This is because the preliminaries have already reached the final stage.
“As I said before, the preliminaries are free passes for us. It’s like seed participation.”
Returning to the inn before going to see the lord, I called Lalilura to talk.
Audrey, who was in charge of adjusting the equipment, was making final adjustments, thinking that the reputation of her future job was at stake. Are they fixing the problems they found while dealing with the mummies that appeared last time?
As she sat on my lap and wrapped her arms around her neck, Lalilura gave her snorts viciously.
“Huh. Is it really okay if I don’t go out? In terms of equity.”
“It is more unfair to go out. If I ran into you, even a prominent candidate for the championship would be eliminated from the preliminaries.”
“I see~♡ Ah, senior. I’d like to get my hair trimmed before I go out in front of those people. Can you tell the lord something? I don’t want to bother Fran.”
“Hehe. Is there any reason not to?”
Lari Lura, who begged her for her charms, was so damn cute that I was the one who agreed without going through her brain.
‘This… The heart of a black cow possessed by a flower snake… ?’
Of course, it’s a flower snake with a leash filled with my hands, but since the skill to seduce me is inherently genius, I feel that way.
Maybe I am the Messiah who sacrificed my body to save the men of the world? Maybe even mother-in-law will admit it.
There was no reason to endure it, so I left the inn after bumping into Ralilura for about an hour.
The place to go is, of course, Yeongjugwan.
It’s time to reap the results of nearly two weeks of multitasking.
“My father is sleeping now.”
But why are these bastards like this?
Stunned, I said to the lord’s son who appeared instead.
《… Are you sleeping? The sun is now in the middle of the sky, and in a few hours, the third round of the tournament will start?”
Uriya placed Lalilura in the seeding right as the host, but the tournament ends today as a preliminary round.
The lord doesn’t have to participate in it, but the paperwork won’t be easy, right? Isn’t it normal to be so busy with just managing public security?
Has your health deteriorated? I’m old, so it’s worth it.
Quickly…
But the lord’s son, who introduced himself as Tolio, gritted his teeth.
“Yes. I heard that the service last night was so intense.”
Worship?
It’s not 108 times as much as some kind of Buddhism, and no matter how many thousands of people there are, it’s impossible to stay asleep on this important day because they are so busy attending worship services.
Even with prior information, I hadn’t heard that he was such a sincere person.
‘… In other words, ‘worship’ in that sense.’
This seed palum is real.
I’m pissed off, I’m pissed off Grandpa’s chilli?
I’m not in a position to talk to anyone, but shouldn’t we share the merits and demerits? No matter how fast and simple the preliminaries are, I don’t know what kind of ugliness this is.
Did you get angry because I passed Ji and broke the line with the other lords? No, I wouldn’t have thought that with the head, Ji would be able to get the exclusive right to sell Narmer-Nile.
So, are you neglecting your work because you’re really in love with women? I’ll turn around.
“Her. Then, will Tolio-sama be in charge of the tournament?”
“It will be like that.”
《… Understand. Well, a man can do that. Then, how was the connection with the priest who will heal me?”
He changed the topic by saying things that were not in his heart.
If you don’t even do this and play around with your dick and spread it to sleep, it’s right to stop losing Alisic. At least until the 40-year-old boy in front of me became the lord.
《… Are you talking about Sidanav? Why are you asking that?”
But why the fuck is this asshole again?
All of a sudden I was taken aback by the young boy’s attitude, which made him flirt with any rival. What is sidanav, fuck you.
“Is that the priest his father called for me?”
“That’s right. However, he was quite tired from dealing with the old man’s ugly desire yesterday. If you have a conscience, how about taking care of yourself until the tournament is over?”
Hostility pours in. Very. Anyone who sees it will know that I said I would borrow your girlfriend.
Tolio, who was dumbfounded by his words, broke out in a cold sweat when he strained his eyes.
Seeing how his hands are shaking, this bastard seems to have a brain of thought compared to that idiot troller who was said to be Benjamin.
‘What the fuck. Are Abby and her son fighting over a woman?’
A rich couple fell in love like this in less than two weeks?
They say that you can’t steal seeds, but you’re making a very bad match. What National Geographic Desert?
《… Okay. Then, I’ll see you tomorrow at lunchtime, after the first round of the tournament begins.”
“Of course. Thank you for your support during the opening ceremony. I will send someone, so please wait comfortably.”
Oh, don’t even think about coming here, right? Driving me crazy.
‘I don’t know if this is okay.’
I heard that the tournament is in the process of progressing, including the break period for participating in the preliminaries. However, it is dangerous for the person who has to supervise it or even the person acting on behalf of it.
Feeling a creak even before it started, I turned away without even straightening my face.
***
We must be prepared for the ominous premonitions that come rushing in.
‘On the way back, I came here leisurely while sightseeing, so the satis cult’s hounds must all be hiding in the city.’
As I expected, those who had managed to sneak in were mingled with the people who came to watch the tournament, hiding their identities.
I met the representative of the hounds wearing a face mask. Needless to say, it’s the warlock hunter Oftum.
“Nice to meet you again. You say you’re moving vigorously? I respect you as a fellow warlock hunter.”
As I put the scroll he gave me into my arms, I smiled.
“I don’t know what to do after hearing from the great seniors in this industry. Rather, is it okay if you come in person? Aren’t you busy?”
“Am I too conspicuous to hide? This kind of thing doesn’t suit me.”
Clattering his gauntlet, said Oftum. The way he spoke seemed more friendly than before.
It seems that they have a sense of comradeship.
“We are already scouring the city. A few of my comrades, including myself, already feel the black magicians hiding in Alishik.”
“Are there several? Do you not know the exact location?
“If you don’t see it yourself, you can only feel that it exists or does not exist. The blessing of the hunting god is the power to distinguish truth from falsehood, not the power to pursue. However, since we are ahead of the information warfare, it won’t take long.”
I guess so. They’re kind of like the post-FBI, but if they screw up their work even with an overwhelming advantage, isn’t it a waste of the money I donated?
“Leave it to me. We are also pros in hunting.”
《I have never doubted your ability.》
Throw in lip service that motivates you, and now the main topic.
《Do you know the name Sidanav?》
“You mean the high priestess of the Church of Hathor? She’s heard the name. She was a country town beauty famous in the south, but her talent was discovered and she was conscripted into the Order of Hathor… Ike, she said she was baptized.”
It’s okay if you know. She saved me the trouble of going to see her face in person.
《… What is the possibility that she is the black magician’s pawn?”
《The Church of Hathor isn’t that stupid. I’ve seen it from afar too.”
Oftum, smoking a cigarette, said skeptically.
《If I didn’t become a black magician within 1-2 months, it means that the young lady has enough power to deceive the eyes of the hunting god manifested through my eyes… Is there any possibility?”
《He didn’t learn black magic himself, but he might work as an underling of a black magician.》
“What kind of fortune will it give her? It took less than a year to become a high priest, and he is a holder of divine power. What would she gain by colluding with the Warlock while abandoning her talents and prospects?”
《… Resentment toward the Church of Hathor for forcibly taking him?”
《If that’s the case, there are many better methods than the high-risk warlock.》
Off Tomb spit out the smoke from his cigarette and rubbed the butt in his hand to put it out.
─Click. When he touched the magic item on his waist, all the smells disappeared.
“Looking at your reaction, it seems that even the lord here has been possessed, right? Just look at it. If you’re willing to take advantage of my whiteness, it won’t be hard to defeat a few enemies. A woman who is tied up is scary.”
《… That’s right.”
She would not be able to hide her true identity from a goddess called the God of the Hunt, even from a god like Odin.
But is a mediocre human a warlock or its nemesis?
‘I’m sure it’s all good enough to take the full course of witch execution.’
Damn mother, then you mean really horny pranksters are blowing their ass off because they like it? How beautiful are you
Like a fantasy world, he might be a person who was born with blessings from the moment he was born.
It’s a different world that wouldn’t be strange even if the word “Brightness” Is applied as a passive buff rather than a compliment.
《… She suddenly becomes scared of meeting her.”
“Haha. But she’s sure you don’t have a helper like her to get rid of the darkness and negative mana that fills her body.”
Yes fuck I really wanted to ask about that too, dude.
“Damn it, did you know? Thank you for not suspecting that I am a warlock, but why don’t you let me know?”
《Symptoms like that are often seen even by people who use ancient relic-level demonic swords or demonic spears. And since there are a lot of girls next to me, I thought that even if I left them alone, they would notice sooner or later, well.”
“Yes. It really is. Rot.”
《Khehe. There is a clear difference between a black magic user who uses the power of a tool and a real black magician. Even with the blessing of the hunting god, I can’t tell the difference between the former, but I’m confident that I can detect it with my intuition.”
Do blessings have limitations or disadvantages?
It wasn’t surprising. If you kill people unintentionally contaminated by darkness and negative mana, that’s a witch hunt.
“Still, it won’t be a problem in handling the work, right?”
《Where are only black magicians evil? Hunters sometimes hunt even shameless thieves.”
If it’s a pro, then yes. Let me do what only I can do
Parting with Optum, my eyes flashed in the darkness of the back alley.
“──Cat Emperor Time.”
“Nya~. (It’s a fish~.)”
The ancestors of cats were originally deserts and creatures, right?
Alishik is a port city, so the fish is cheap.
