Chapter 752 – 752 Yggdrasil (6)
“Kheaaaaa!!”
He smiled as he saw Verden lying on the floor with his leg cut off.
‘It’s also Lena.’
It was Lena, not me, who made Verden roll on the floor like this.
Even Lena, as if she had lost her mind that she didn’t want to just kill him, she just cut off her leg and subdued him.
And even with the original two feet sticking to the ground…
While I admired Lena’s swordsmanship, Lena swung her sword again with her lightning-like fingers.
Shaaaaagh!
“Kiaaaaa!!”
This time, Verden’s arms were cut straight and he fell to the floor.
Lena spoke to him without raising an eyebrow despite Verden’s screams like a dead man.
“I cut off her arm because I was trying to harm my master. Also, if you want to do something strange, I will not kill you, but I will slice the cut parts like sashimi.”
“Hikiyiik!!”
After listening to Lena, she could see why she swung her sword again.
Verden seemed to be trying to do something to me even while he was lying on the floor with his foot cut off.
Verden lost both his hands and arms, but began to dance with joy, gaining fear and pain.
Although the score for that dance was hard to give even 1 point out of 10…
I smiled as I watched Verden pour blood from his limbs.
“Shall we continue the conversation?”
“Aaaaagh!! What, what are you talking about!?”
“Do you think your mind is going back and forth? You already signed a contract. Taking me alive I appeared myself, but I was wondering if there was any compensation for me.”
“Ouch! Hakaaaaa!!”
Verden couldn’t stand the intense pain and screamed in the middle.
Then, suddenly, despite his missing hands and arms, he got down on his knees and looked up at me and started begging.
“Sah, save me! Well, i’ll do anything! Would you kill someone? Or do you need a woman? Just say anything! Turn it off!”
Verden staggered to his knees and landed on the floor with his severed hand.
“Kaaaaagh!! Aaaaagh!!”
“Oh my… It will hurt.”
It wasn’t empty talk, it was sincere.
If I smeared blood on the floor with the cross-section of her severed arm, even I would scream like that.
Verden exclaimed with a smile on the contrary, as if she felt hope in her words of sympathy.
“My, no matter what I do, I am the head of the assassin group! Anything you say…”
“Oh, chief… ? What is your name?”
“Ouch! My, my name is… Marco! John Marco! As the head of an organization called Fu, Blue Moonlight…”
John Marco, Blue Moonlight, Chief…
‘And… How many people can lie so fluently in this short, painful situation?’
[In a sense, I respect it.]
From this guy’s point of view, he knows that verification is impossible anyway, so he just spit it out.
Survival Needs and Organizational Secrecy
You want to take care of both at the same time.
But what about…
I smiled and looked down at the begging Verden and opened her mouth.
“John Marco, the head of the blue moonlight…”
“Yeah, yes! You must have heard of it! A group of Red Summoners operating in the shadows…”
“You’re telling lies from the start. Mr. Verden?”
“Uh… ?”
Verden looked up blankly at me as if he had forgotten her pain even as he was dying from excessive blood loss.
I looked down at him and continued to speak.
“Verden… An executive of the Red Crescent Moon.”
“Uh… How to…”
“How did you know?”
I put an arrow on the bowstring while watching Verden staring blankly at me as if I had forgotten the pain.
Then he pointed it at his face and smiled.
“That… Go to the second floor and ask the dead people diligently.”
“Ah… Now wait… !”
Sensing his death intuition, Verden raised his arms with his last breath.
It was as if he was trying to block my arrow by crossing his palms.
But the arm he raised…
“Ah… Ahhh!!”
His hands were not on it.
The only thing that greeted him was his severed wrist, with his blood pouring out like a fountain.
Looking at Verden in despair, I left a word.
“See you later.”
“Live… !”
That was Verden’s last will.
..
..
After defeating Verden, I immediately returned to the Raintree Tavern.
Once everything was handled well.
The Red Summoners, the NPC that acted as Verden’s information network, and…
“We are not at fault!”
Domi Drake and Kennell’s team were caught by the soldiers, making excuses.
“Okay! Since when did Letitia even control her private life!?”
“They just approached first! And we barely talked!”
The two had a fairly high reputation thanks to their long reign as the rulers of the Colosseum.
And with that reputation, he was making excuses to the soldiers.
Some of the soldiers nodded as if in agreement with what they were saying.
Meeting with the Red Summoner is not a good deed.
But if you ask me for a sin… First of all, it was not a crime to be punished by Yggdrasil.
No, it was individual freedom not even being warned.
However, that was Yggdrasil’s standard.
“Keuhehehe!”
Silence hung over the grotesque interior of the pub, accompanied by grotesque laughter.
Even the eyes of Domi Drake and Kenil, who were making radical excuses, returned.
Two people entered the bar.
Hee hee! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen an interesting scene.”
“Fun… Ludwig-nim seems to have very different values of pleasure than I do.”
They were Ludwig, the manager of the Colosseum, and Madam, the manager of an entertainment establishment.
The reason why the two suddenly appeared out of nowhere was simple.
Because I called
Then why did I call them?
It wasn’t difficult for me to defeat Verden by myself.
But Domi Drake and Kenil… And even his party members were not easy to catch with my hands.
Yes, there was a way.
With Jihyun Yang’s help… Either I become the Red Summoner myself…
However, there was a possibility that the former would leave behind the rumor that Yang Ji-hyun was a traitor, and the latter did not even think about it in the first place.
In such a situation, the exquisite trick I came up with was to enlist the help of Ludwig and Madam.
Ludwig saw me as the ruler of the Colosseum and accepted my request, and Madame helped me because she didn’t want to miss out on a talented person named Midsummer.
Yes, I offered one condition when I helped, but…
As soon as Ludwig entered the bar, he left everyone else aside and started talking to me.
Hee hee… Ruler… What you said so far has been true. The important thing is next.”
When Ludwig started talking to me as if he were friendly, Domi Drake and Kenil got angry and shouted at him.
“Hey! Ludwig! Could it be that you captured us like this!?”
“You’re doing too much! How much we have helped the Colosseum!”
At the words of the two, Ludwig smiled and nodded his head.
“Kuhhh… Your performance has always been appreciated. But…”
Ludwig let out a low voice as he looked at them with fierce eyes instead of the light expression he had shown so far.
“If your actions are false, I will split your stomachs and heads and take out all the memories and feelings of gratitude I handed over to you.”
“Radish… What…”
In an instant, snapper Drake and Kenil trembled like rats in front of snakes at the little goblin’s momentum.
‘And… He said he was a goblin, so I thought he was just a guy looking for money. I can’t underestimate it.’
Reflecting on how I had ignored Ludwig in the past, I waited for Ludwig’s words.
After Ludwig subdued Domi Drake and Kennil with the atmosphere, he smiled again and said to me.
“But if there are no lies in their performance, you might be the one in trouble.”
“Well, don’t worry about that.”
I handed Ludwig an item in the form of a jewel.
As soon as Ludwig saw my item, he immediately grinned and nodded his head.
“Khehehe! He is the one I fear the most in the world!”
Camera.
Ludwig said that he was more afraid of the camera than swords, magic, or the Red Summoner.
“Sleipnir is the word of God that can travel both the divine world and the underworld, but the words contained in this camera are stored in the memory of intellectuals and can roam in everyone’s memory.”
It seemed to be referring to a proverb, roughly like ‘a word without feet goes a thousand miles.’
I was able to realize that I had to be careful with the words that came out of my mouth in any world.
Ludwig stopped talking about her and started checking the contents of her camera.
Inside the camera was the contents of the conversation between Verden and the two of them earlier.
After confirming, Ludwig…
“…”
Her laughter was erased, and she let out a low voice as she watched the party with Domi Drake and Kenel.
“Take it.”
Afterwards, Domi Drake and the Kennel members spat out her words as if arguing several times, but nothing stirred Ludwig’s heart.
And after that, three members of the Red Crescent Moon and three NPCs were also taken away.
Unlike Domi Drake and Kenil, who were initially taken, they were taken quietly to avoid disturbing Ludwig as much as possible.
The case was over, and Ludwig clapped his hands and changed her mood again with her feathery voice.
Hee hee! Then the ball will be over. I have to go.”
“Thank you for your help.”
“Chehehe! Rather, I am the one who is grateful.”
Ludwig said that as much as she was the caretaker of the Colosseum, she would never forgive anyone who had won victories dishonestly.
She was relieved to see his figure.
‘Looking at the atmosphere from before, I don’t think it’s going to go well.’
After thanking me, Ludwig led the soldiers back.
And what’s left of the bar…
“I wasn’t very helpful.”
It was madam with me.
“Sorry. I decided it was good to have a lot of people to help me.”
Madame laughed and grunted mischievously.
“I was just disappointed that Ludwig-nim seemed to have taken away the player rather than any real gain.”
In other words, it was a story that just asking for help was enough.
Just listening to the madam, she thought that neither this woman nor she was an ordinary bet.
I accepted the madam’s grumbling and smiled.
“Then I’ll take you to the store.”
“Whoops… That’s nice. I wasn’t bored on the way, and I just had business.”
“What’s your business?”
Madame answered my question with a smile.
“The boss set an appointment time. As soon as… It’s tomorrow.”
..
..
After making an appointment, I escorted the madam to the store and headed straight to the Colosseum.
And the one who greeted me at the Colosseum…
“Ah~~~ Ahhhhh.”
It was the look of Hanbom looking at me helplessly.
Hanbom looked at me with her shoulders stretched out and her powerless expression and voice weak.
As soon as I saw her, I was concerned about her.
“What’s the matter? Are you hurt?”
I wonder if you got hurt during the game.
But the reason she didn’t have her powers wasn’t due to external factors like that.
“Was my game not that much fun?”
It was because of me.
“Haha… Spring, I’m sorry. I’m really busy with work…”
“Aaaaah Mr. Ajo is always busy. You won’t have time to watch my game.”
Haha…”
Even after that, Hanbom continued to send her signal that she was pouting with a weak ‘Ajo-ssi’ sound.
It took me quite a long time to free Hanbom, who was so upset.
***
When Midsummer opened the door, a familiar face greeted him.
“I will bring you today. Let’s go.”
“…”
It was a bodyguard dispatched from the establishment.
Midsummer nodded her head and started following him.
The number of bodyguards is five, the same as yesterday.
Midsummer is escorted by bodyguards, and she smiles.
‘Heh heh… Good.’
It was finally time to break free from the hellish bondage.
‘This time, I changed my behavior in the middle, so Seong Su-ho’s behavior also changed… There’s no way this will ever change.’
It was midsummer, fearing the butterfly effect of her own actions, but she wasn’t too concerned this time.
The opponent is a group of red summoners active in the labyrinth.
Just because Han Yeo-reum acted differently, she judged that there was no way that their behavior would change.
‘Good… Over there.’
Midsummer cried out inwardly as she reached the place where she had been attacked in the previous episode.
‘Come!!’
The opponent is the Red Summoner.
However, those red summoners were angels who would save Midsummer from the treadmill of hell created by the devil Seongsuho.
Yes, those angels who saved me last episode…
‘… Uh?’
She didn’t appear before his eyes.
‘Oh, no. My, i… Tea, you must be mistaken? Wasn’t it here?’
Midsummer turned a corner like that, and every time she entered a dark street she cried inwardly.
‘Come out! Come out now!! Anyway, I can easily deal with the guys next to me!!!’
Midsummer cried out to an angel inwardly.
But what greeted him…
“Oh my… Are you here again today!? I’ll be sure to pick you first today!”
She was a huge woman who weighed over 100 kg and drained her energy of yesterday.
Midsummer…
‘Ah… Ahhh…’
While being held in the arms of that gigantic woman…
‘No!!!!!!!!!!!!!’
I started to spin the wheel of hell made by Seong Su-ho.
