Chapter 211 – Chapter 22
Akina’s office.
“I don’t understand this situation right now, Count Akina.”
“I would have said. I will listen to the story and make a decision before sending it.”
“Didn’t that person run away!”
“I didn’t run away. That child will definitely come back.”
“Keuuu…! I have warned you by order of the royal family! Count Akina will take on all responsibility from now on!”
Akina, who returned the royal envoy who came every day, clicked her tongue as if it were annoying.
The envoy from the royal family had gone, but there were still overflowing people who would nag.
After confirming that the messenger had returned, the vassals, along with their husbands (on paper), received permission by knocking and entered.
“Count. What the hell are you defending that species for?”
“That’s right. If you do this, the count will also be stigmatized.”
They insisted on handing over the Wolf mercenary corps, a mercenary corps like Lee Jong, to the kingdom or beheaded immediately.
“I would have said. I will listen to the story of the person concerned and make a decision.”
“This is not a matter of right or wrong!”
“Leejong assaulted the prince! Even though he is recovering with divine power, he still has injuries that cannot be fully cured!”
Even if I checked the situation and found out that Yi Jong was right, the result would not change.
Royalty and nobility must rule this world, and their absoluteness must not be compromised for any reason.
That’s why the fact that Lee Jong attacked the royal family alone is enough reason to annihilate the entire surrounding village.
Her royal family honored her by giving her the opportunity to dispose of herself so that her damage could be minimized.
However, when she refused, which she thought would be acceptable, she sent people one after another, unable to hide her embarrassment from the position of the royal family.
“Go back.”
“Count!”
“I said go back.”
Good deed deed —-!
“Kuk!”
“Ugh!”
Akina spread her mana, suppressing the backlash of her men with force.
There were also knights with excellent abilities because it was their job to protect the frontier, but they could not overcome her pressure.
“I’ll take care of this myself, so don’t worry, you guys can do your duty. Okay?”
“…Yes.”
The vassals who were kicked out like that focused their eyes on Theo.
“How do I do this?”
“Why is the Count taking such a tough stand?”
Theo, who was being bombarded with questions by his vassals, naturally responded with embarrassment.
“I am no different from you. I have no idea why her wife is like that.”
His vassals, in case he wanted to, wondered if he had been silenced, but even after he asked several more times, they knew that he really didn’t know anything and dispersed.
‘What the hell are you thinking?’
Theo couldn’t understand his wife’s response.
It was clear that Akinaka Raiden, whom she knew, had a tendency to favor her talented people, but she was born into a noble family and had an aristocratic mind.
If this is a quarrel between her subordinates, she can pass it off as she favors talented people, but in the case of Lee Jong beating up a royal fan, it is usually not a problem, but she is passive in punishing it.
‘And…’
As Akina looked down at herself among her vassals, her eyes were colder than usual.
Not at the level of others, but at the level of seeing someone you don’t know at all.
‘Something… I have a bad feeling.’
However, thinking that his feelings were just feelings, he headed somewhere to take care of his business.
Akina, who forcibly suppressed the resistance of his subordinates, did not feel nervous despite the urgent situation.
‘Now, Youngji or whatever, it doesn’t matter anyway. As long as Seobangnim is here, I’m happy.’
Already, she checked the inventory of her property and the estate, and was halfway to the option of putting all her property and resources into her dimensional storage and fleeing when her Kai Cent returned.
You can use this wealth as a base to escape to the East Continent, or you can hide your identity and become a mercenary.
‘But if that woman named Dang Seol-yeong comes…’
There are already many pretty and slender women like Lillian and the others, but what if the woman who tried to find the prince was added?
She doesn’t have the slenderness of other women, but what about her bulky self?
Her only agony was this one thing that had been going on ever since Kaicent left.
She hears that the fight between vampires and heterogeneous species is getting fiercer in the Carmeld Kingdom, but her biggest concern is her own future.
‘By the way, I haven’t heard from Shirin. Is the heterogeneity that she is the leader of the Liberation Army stronger than I thought?’
She secretly left her card outside the castle wall, so I thought she would come back sooner or later, but she has not been contacted.
Akina, who was worried about her because he was a respectable strongman but decided to serve her husband together, prayed that she would not have a big problem.
* *
Qurrrr!
“Quit!”
Shirin had to endure the trembling of her electric-shocked muscles as she took a direct hit from her lightning strike from the sky.
Shhh!
An arrow with the energy to purify the undead flew in front of her eyes.
Even Shirin, who was counterattacking after parrying off most of her attacks, had to duck her upper body in front of this attack to avoid it.
“Gaaaaa!!”
As the arrow pierced the unlucky undead warrior in the back, white flames rose from the body of the undead and quickly turned into white ash.
‘Heterogeneous but obvious divine power. That woman, like us, is a drifter from another world, but is she able to use such powerful divine power?’
The reason why the Cameld Kingdom is being pushed back is because of a simple reason.
‘It’s too strong.’
The man who calls himself Kang Myeong-cheol is a magician who uses powerful swordsmanship and magic.
And the blonde female elf archer next to her possesses the powerful divine power to purify the undead.
Others helping them were also strong, but the combination of the two negated the numerical superiority of the undead.
Haha! Have your brains rotted! How many times have you guys confirmed that you can’t defeat me!”
Kang Myeong-cheol devastated the undead army by unleashing a wide range of magic based on his abundant magical power.
If the undead were strong enough to survive, the arrows of the elven archers would fly and purify the undead.
“Sir Sirin!”
“Retreat!”
At the cry of the high-ranking vampire who served as her lieutenant, Shirin immediately ordered a retreat.
While the low-ranking undead, whose bodies were left without souls, bought time, the high-ranking undead quickly began to retreat.
“Win!”
“Good!”
Those who fought together with Kang Myeong-cheol to create a city where heterogeneous people could live freely cheered for the victory.
As the size of the small number of liberation troops gradually increases, the dark clouds in the sky are disappearing.
“Everybody did a good job.”
“It’s thanks to you.”
“That’s right. Thanks to Celestine, I had no difficulty dealing with the undead.”
Those who came to support Kang Myeong-cheol celebrated their victory with a female elf archer who had the power to purify the undead.
The elf archer looked innocent thanks to his shoulder-length, wavy blonde hair, but his white skin and deer-like soft lines were revealed through the side of his neck.
Even so, she has mysterious white eyes, and she has a lively impression and a slight eye smile. She has a mysterious beauty that is unrivaled among elves from other worlds.
Lastly, she wore tight white armor that clung to her body like a tailored suit, to the point where strangers would mistake it for an angel.
Carrying a beautifully decorated bow on her back like a work of art, she tended to the physical condition of her comrades.
“Where are you injured?”
“It’s okay. There are no major injuries.”
“Because you were attacked by the undead, morale must have penetrated your body.
She used her own divine powers, lightly scolding her companion for leaving her little wound alone, just like her older sister.
“Hey! What are you doing there!”
At that time, Kang Myeong-cheol, who witnessed people crowding around an elf archer named Celestine, approached him nervously.
“You can’t see it? He’s healing the wounds.”
“Are you treating a wound like that? Do you think we’re here to play kids? You’re whining about a wound like that. You guys’ level is really worth seeing.”
“Why do you talk like that!? Wounds inflicted by the undead can be penetrated by fraud!”
“You have to overcome that much yourself! Are you going to act like a medic whenever you get hurt?”
It was Celestine and Kang Myung-cheol who showed the best compatibility when dealing with the undead, but the relationship between the two did not look very good.
“If there is a problem with your playing house, then it won’t go over smoothly.”
“You!”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. I’m all better.”
While being treated by her, her colleague intervened between the two to break up a fight.
“Sniff. You guys, pack useful loot and come back.”
Kang Myeong-cheol deliberately blew an exaggerated snort, glancing at the servants, and headed somewhere.
When he disappeared, the dissatisfied servants frowned and began to express their dissatisfaction.
“Damn it. They know us as a complete species.”
“So. No matter how strong you are, you don’t treat people who come to help this way.”
“Two. It makes me want to ask what dimension he came from.”
Kang Myeong-cheol treated the servants who came to help him like servants.
Applicants from the Foreign Press Union were gradually dissatisfied with his appearance of looking down on them as if it was natural because he was strong.
“Hey, Celestine. Shouldn’t we go back now?
“I agree with you. Even so, the inhabitants of this world see us as an evil that cannot be matched with.
Having lived in this world for a long time, they are moderates who are self-sufficient and passive in attacking outsiders in order to let people know that they, as heterogeneous people, have the right to live like human beings.
However, they were worried, thinking that if people like Kang Myeong-cheol, who looked down on others, became king, their perception of them would get worse.
“It’s okay. He’s a bad-tempered, disrespectful, and very narcissistic person, but at least he’s not so stupid as to randomly kill the people he’s supposed to dominate.”
After saying this, it seems that he is full of flaws from one to ten, but it is clear that he has experience as a ruler when he sees that he is strengthening his inner strength to become a king.
“How about you just be king?”
“That’s right. If it’s you, we won’t have any complaints either.”
Despite the strong support of her colleagues, she shook her head with her wry smile.
“If I, who believes in a god from another world, becomes the ruler, the whole world will try to tear us apart, saying things like foreign media. He who is strong but doesn’t believe in God is the best candidate for now.”
‘Okay. For now.’
However, that also meant that he could change his mind if another candidate came along.
“Let’s go. Let’s move first. Even if we don’t like it, it’s clear that we have to create a country where we can live freely.”
Under Celestine’s generosity and leadership, the aliens set about retrieving useful loot and placing it in the magic pouch.
Several years have passed since I lived in this world.
The desire to return to the original world still remains, but after learning that it is impossible, he is now moving towards the goal of establishing a nation where people like himself can live like human beings.
‘The only thing that sticks out in her mind is Lilith, that she didn’t really see her match.’
Recalling the Dark Elves with whom she had a bad relationship for hundreds of years, Celestine took a deep breath and controlled her emotions.
* *
“Tch. If it wasn’t for that damn division…”
Disembarking at her port, Lilith expressed her dissatisfaction with her own plight of having to watch in her dimensional warehouse because of her fragmentation field.
“Don’t worry, Lilith. From now on, I can protect my master by myself.”
“Huh~ Can you hit me with an ignorant power that only works for a giant monster?”
“I just took the most appropriate pattern for each opponent. If it’s a fast and nimble person-to-person battle, I’ll just respond accordingly.”
Lilith and Artie glared at each other as they engaged in a war of nerves.
“Now. Let’s move quickly.”
The guardian corps, who got off the ship late, tried to leave quickly with a tired expression on their faces.
“What? Already?”
“You haven’t forgotten our mission, have you?”
Jin Soo-ah, whose heart was pounding at the strength of Kai Sent’s group, frowned at the appearance of her colleagues using her energy to quickly break up.
But it was not incomprehensible.
‘Because I simply fooled a monster called the Kraken that I couldn’t win even if I fought normally.’
Equipped with a machine-type vanguard, Artie flew around and swung a blade made of energy to cut off the Kraken’s legs.
The Kraken, whose legs were cut off, hid under the sea, but Artie jumped into the sea and pierced the Kraken’s head, easily hunting down the nightmare of the sea.
Even in a situation where mana cannot be used.
Kaicent, who was able to simply destroy the evidence by killing them and throwing them into the sea, explained the reason why he had to save Dang Seol-yeong.
Thanks to that, the perception has changed, but the fact that it is a dangerous heterogeneity has not changed.
No, rather, the risk level has risen even more.
A xenogene with a powerful venom capable of killing marine monsters in the sea with a few drops of blood.
A robotic heterogeneous species that freely flew around and hunted huge monsters lightly by equipping strange parts.
And Kaicent, who uses them as limbs.
“I need to inform the higher up right now and find out at least a little bit of their information.”
“Hey, are you thinking of repaying the favor with an enemy?”
“I know it’s rational because they talked in a situation that could kill us. But apart from that, the power they have is too dangerous.”
“I don’t know, you’re half-employed, but this world is our home. Of course, we don’t want to blindly drive you as a villain, so don’t worry.”
If they had eyes, they knew Kai Sent was rational, so he intended to give unbiased information.
Unexpected that Kaicent would cause a major accident on this continent, they moved toward the headquarters of the Guardian Corps in the West Continent.
