Chapter 399 – Accompanying
The crypt was as complicated as an ant’s nest.
Appreciating the back of the warlock girl, she leisurely followed.
The girl led me into a small room.
It was a room with things like household items.
The girl started rummaging through her drawers and pulling out her clothes.
Her back is bent, revealing the private area between her hips.
Aren’t you ashamed?
As a man, of course, it is a scene where you can’t help but get an erection.
She had a strong desire to grab behind her and shake her waist.
But she had to put up with it.
It’s a game anyway, so it’s okay… I thought.
This is the dark mage’s dungeon.
Just because I couldn’t see the paladin yet, it wasn’t a situation where I could relax.
It’s fine now, but you never know when a paladin will smell it and attack you.
Leaving it on my instincts, I was able to tease her at the waist and cut her throat.
Getting away from this place is the right decision.
A girl handed her clothes to me.
Seeing her blush slightly at the sight of my hard-edged cock, she seemed to be aware of this, though.
I sang the national anthem in my heart and took the clothes the girl gave me and put them on.
The quality of her clothes she gave me wasn’t that great.
I missed the comfortable workout clothes in my inventory.
The warlock girl was wearing a shabby dress.
She changed into an ordinary country girl.
It would be better than the gloomy warlock’s robe… But the problem is more than that…
“Do you intend to follow me?”
The girl nods her head at my question.
Maybe she doesn’t know that she almost became my sacrifice…
I also saw warlocks decapitate me.
It didn’t seem like an idiot.
It’s not like they don’t know the situation.
Although I ran into the black magician a few times.
Of course, I don’t know much about the ecosystem of demons and black magicians.
The girl is a black magician with weak magical power that I didn’t even notice at first.
‘Are you absolutely loyal to me as a black magician?’
I should have done some research on this too.
I was worried.
It was not a matter of whether or not to kill this girl who was a black magician.
Even though she was a warlock, she had no intention of killing her.
I’m a man with manners who won’t kill children and women if possible.
They will say what kind of woman and child are in the game, but…
The sense of reality beyond imagination naturally made me think that way.
Regardless of whether to kill or save… It’s not good to go around with a warlock.
He said so in the survival strategy video.
If it’s for survival, it’s better to throw away warlocks.
The warlock girl wasn’t even a great beauty, but she had a cute face and a good body.
Besides, she can’t call Sunni here.
Wouldn’t it be okay for her to wear a woman’s clothes rather than a solo studio?
It’s not really about survival…It’s a game anyway… It’s not fun to focus too much on efficiency.
“What’s your name?”
The girl squats down and writes on her floor.
“Karen?”
Karen nods her head.
“Can’t you talk?”
Karen quietly nodded her head.
I judge a woman by her face, I don’t discriminate against her because she can’t speak.
So I picked up clothes with Karen and got out of the dark mage’s den.
“…”
However, once they got out of the dungeon, it was desolate.
At a time like this, if it were a game, they would tell me to go somewhere… But I also didn’t have a clear goal.
“Karen, do you have anywhere to go?”
In the end, I decided to ask Karen’s opinion.
Karen thought for a second, then she took the lead and started walking.
I followed her in her steps.

7 years ago.
A powerful demon has been summoned to the slumber labyrinth.
Rumors circulated that it might be at least a high-ranking demon…Perhaps a demon king.
Either way, it was a serious matter, and the Church of Terra poured considerable troops into the Slumber Labyrinth, but he couldn’t easily clean up the demons.
In the meantime, black magicians began to make explicit movements throughout Pantera.
Just because the labyrinth was important, it was impossible to leave the black magicians roaming around outside.
Terra Church had no choice but to send paladins to all parts of Pantera.
That’s how Hestia was dispatched to the small city of Crea as a paladin of the Church of Terra.
This is because she received a tip that there seems to be a suspicious wizard.
Originally, a paladin doesn’t move alone as much as possible.
However, it is still in the doubt stage, not the conviction stage, and above all, Terra Church currently does not have enough energy to dispatch many paladins here.
Even so, it was safe to say that a paladin who could act alone was so much recognized for his abilities in Terra Church.
Upon arriving in Crea, Hestia began an investigation.
And he heard that the mysterious wizard lived in a small village in the woods north of the city.
Usually, black magicians would disguise themselves as ordinary wizards. Of course, Hestia, who couldn’t just ignore it, decided to find that village.
Hestia sensed his strangeness from the moment she entered the village.
That’s because the town was empty.
Outside the walls, not inside.
And in such a remote village in the forest, there is always a threat.
It was not uncommon for them to disappear overnight due to bandits or monsters.
And it was also a good prey for black magicians.
Even if the entire village disappears like that, the lord doesn’t care much.
After looking around the town, Hestia could see that she wasn’t angry with the thieves or the monsters.
This is because the buildings were so clean, and there were no corpses of villagers to be seen.
Even so, it was strange that all the villagers had disappeared, so Hestia decided to explore the surroundings of the village.
Hestia, who searched around the village for several days, found a suspicious crypt.
And she entered the crypt without hesitation.
There wasn’t even any hesitation.
Because she believed in her own abilities.
“It’s not an animal habitat.”
It was too deep for her to be an animal’s abode.
And Hestia was able to find the corpses of humans and black magicians who were used as sacrifices in the depths of the crypt.
“It seems that the sacrifices… Are villagers… And the warlocks… Are they all dead?”
Hestia examined the corpses of the black magicians rolling on the floor.
“…I was struck by a single sword.”
She slashed 3 warlocks simultaneously with one sword.
When she saw the cut, she was quite a force.
Magi vibrated around me, but I didn’t feel it that strongly.
‘Has the summon failed? Or not…’
Even if he was summoned, he doesn’t seem to be such a great being.
“At most, it must be a low-level demon or a demon.”
Judging from the scale of the warlock dungeon, it was highly likely.
Warlocks with low abilities are sometimes subjugated by adventurers or wandering knights.
It could be assumed that someone broke in and took care of them, but… There are too few signs of a battle to say that.
If so, the black magician should be seen as being attacked in a defenseless state.
‘It’s unlikely that a skilled person who can be dealt with without the warlock noticing has flowed into this corner…’
There was a possibility that he might have been killed by the demons.
It wasn’t because there weren’t demons who occasionally killed the black magicians who summoned them.
‘..That’s also not right. With the power of a low-class demon or demon, it would be difficult to kill three people in one blow… Did someone kill them after all?’
Feeling puzzled, Hestia decided to investigate the inside of her crypt in more detail.

Karen led me to a small village in the mountains.
The village was empty.
“Is this where you live?”
– Nod.
“Where have the villagers gone?”
In response to my question, Karen glanced in the direction of the crypt.
“…”
I was a little embarrassed.
It seemed to have been offered as a sacrifice to summon me.
I had no intention of living here.
If the paladin found the crypt, there was no way they wouldn’t investigate this place.
It was late, so I thought of taking a break and leaving.
Karen led me to a small cabin.
Is it your house?
Well…What does that matter?
The scale of the town is small and all the buildings are shabby… Everywhere you go, they all look the same.
Once you have survived the summoning location, the next thing to do is to seal your abilities.
The reason why he chose Seal as a secondary skill was to refrain from using blood magic.
The reason why the paladin was able to track her demons well was because of the demons that flowed from that blood magic.
Blood magic is the problem.
You must give up blood magic.
However, since it is the basic passive of the idiot Avatar, it cannot be discarded.
According to the strategy video, if you seal the blood magic, you can repel the Paladin’s pursuit to some extent.
But it’s not perfect, so you can’t believe in it and do crazy things to get close to the paladin.
The problem is that if you seal the blood magic, your power will decrease considerably.
If the demons can’t use blood magic, it’s no different than walking around naked.
It’s not a normal body, so it’s better than a human, but there’s a huge difference between being able to use magic and not being able to use it.
‘Should this be sealed…’
While she was coming here, she met a monster, and it was inevitable that she would become a sucker without magical powers, so conflicts could not be avoided.
As I was thinking about it, Karen brought something like fruit in her basket.
