Chapter 753 – 753. Yggdrasil (6)
A tall woman whose name I don’t even want to know is affectionate with Midsummer… No, the sight of them sharing a one-sided hug caught my eye.
I laughed out loud when I saw it.
‘Good. Arrived well.’
It was midsummer when he should have been kidnapped before returning, but he was able to safely arrive at the establishment today.
Verden, who was supposed to kidnap him, was killed by me, and the plan itself was thwarted because the executive who would give orders to his subordinates disappeared.
Thanks to this, our party was not surprised in the dungeon unlike before the return, and we were able to safely obtain Park Jin-hee’s summons.
Of course, not even Mid-Autumn was kidnapped.
Even so, the reason I secretly followed Midsummer was not just to check variables.
I laughed heartily as I watched Midsummer enter the store making love with a tall woman.
“Then let me go in.”
The reason I stopped by this place today wasn’t just to check the midsummer condition.
It was because of the promise.
As soon as I entered the establishment, a female employee guided me to the madam.
“You came just in time. Let’s go.”
As soon as I met Madam, I exchanged greetings and headed straight to the meeting place.
Madam and I got on the carriage outside the store.
The wagon began moving without a hitch, with the curtains covering it so that no one could see outside.
I wanted to open the curtains to take in the view outside, but seeing the madam’s expression, I immediately gave up on that idea.
Her expression gave off an air that seemed like she wouldn’t allow the curtains to be opened.
It wasn’t that the atmosphere was heavy.
Madam kept talking to her throughout the ride to her carriage, so as not to get bored.
The carriage that was moving along with such meaningless conversation…
“I have arrived.”
It stopped along with Madame’s words.
By the way, the madam’s words came out before the carriage stopped.
Maybe it was because it was a place I came and went often, so it seemed that I had arrived only with a rough guess.
I got off the wagon that stopped and admired my surroundings.
“Oh…”
Until now, the thing I admired while living in Letitia was its height.
Such a sense of intimidation given by tall buildings.
But the place I am visiting now exclaims in a different way.
The wide, majestic spread of the house stretched out to swallow me.
‘Seo Ji-eun’s mansion… No, it looks much wider than there.’
Madame smiled as if satisfied with my voice of admiration and led me inside the house.
Even though there were several attendants regardless of gender, the madam guided me directly.
It was the moment I entered such a huge hall.
Hee hee! You were the guest at dinner tonight.”
“?”
It was none other than Ludwig who greeted me.
‘Could it be that the business owner is Ludwig?’
But I couldn’t understand.
If Ludwig was the owner of the establishment, he would have no reason to meet separately.
Madame saw my expression and smiled as if she read my thoughts, and she tried to talk to Ludwig.
“What is Ludwig doing?”
“Hee hee… I was suddenly called to a dinner today and was on my way. Go like this.”
“Yes.”
Ludwig.
A goblin who owns a huge share of the Colosseum in the play city of Letitia.
Is he being called?
‘What kind of person is the boss doing…’
I became more and more curious.
I thought he was just a person running a window shop, but the more I got to know him, the more I started to feel the smell of a mogul.
The place where Madame and Ludwig arrived…
“Oh…”
We were able to arrive at a restaurant with a huge round table.
The table was of an unusually large size.
It was a size that seemed to be 10 meters in diameter, and it was not a table for one or two people to sit and eat.
More than anything else, it even looked empty, probably because nothing had been uploaded yet.
As I stared at the table in disbelief, the madam next to me smiled and said,
“Come this way.”
From the looks of it, it seemed that my reserved seat was already there.
My seat was at 9 o’clock based on the seat of honor.
“It may be inconvenient, but please sit down when the boss comes.”
“Yes.”
And Ludwig’s seat…
“Oh, when is this guy’s table going to change…”
It was Ludwig grumbling.
Ludwig, who grumbled like that, didn’t sit down like me, but stood and grinned at me.
“Hee hee… Still, it’s different to see someone on the other side like this.”
“Don’t other people usually sit down?”
“Hee hee… Yes. By the way, it was three years ago that more than three people sat at this table.”
I became more and more curious.
Who the heck is going to sit in that seat of honor…
In addition, Madam escorted me to my seat and left the restaurant and disappeared.
She listened to Ludwig’s machine-gun chatter as she waited for the person sitting in the top seat.
And while chatting…
Squeak…
With the sound of the dining room door opening, Ludwig’s mouth was firmly shut.
The entity that entered through the restaurant door…
“It’s been a while since I’ve been a guest…”
It was a goblin with a harsh voice like iron powder.
Plus, to match his voice, he looked much older than Ludwig.
The goblin was supported by the madam and reached the table of honor.
Then he greeted me before sitting in the seat of honor.
“I’ve heard a lot of rumors about the fort. Thanks for accepting the invitation…”
At first, I thought it was just an old-looking goblin.
But my heart was telling me that the eyes that contained countless years and the voice that sounded like the weight of the mountain were not normal.
I decided it was better to be polite.
“Thank you for inviting me.”
With my answer, the old goblin opened her mouth and tried to get something more out of her.
But the one who stopped him was none other than Ludwig across from me.
“Father. A guest has arrived, so let’s sit down and talk.”
I tilted my head at Ludwig, who suddenly changed his attitude as if he were wearing a mask.
‘What’s the original personality of that goblin?’
Ludwig, who had always given off a snobbish atmosphere whenever he met me, completely excluded playfulness and let out a serious expression and a voice that matched it.
Perhaps judging by her temperament window, her current appearance was most likely wearing a mask.
In other words, it must mean that he is a big man enough to wear a mask to the goblin he called his father in front of him.
The No Goblin listened to Ludwig, nodded, and sat down.
“Okay. Sit down.”
At the same time, Ludwig and I sat down.
And at the same time as I sat down, I introduced myself.
“My name is Wedlock… I am the master of this city.”
To be honest, it was completely unexpected.
The fact that the city’s owner was a goblin was known thanks to what Ludwig had said before.
However, I never imagined that the business owner would be the owner of the city.
“I am Seongsuho.”
“Recently, your name rang through the city and I heard it in my ears.”
“Haha…”
A goblin less than 1 meter tall.
However, the goblin had enough charisma to make the air around him heavy with just his voice.
‘And… It feels like a boss coming out of noir water.’
Weatherlock was completely shattering the impression of a goblin in my head.
While admiring it inwardly, meals began to come up on the empty table.
After the meal came up, we each began to taste our meals.
Madam did not sit down at the table, but continued to sit beside Weatherlock and assist him.
The meal started, and soon after, I brought up the main topic of my visit here.
“The deal you talked about… Accept it.”
The deal I was talking about was a contract related to Midsummer.
“If something happens to that Midsummer, I will properly calculate and compensate you for the damage you will suffer.”
“I… Compensation is good, but his safety is more important to me.”
Of course, points are also important.
But even if I get points, when midsummer returns, I will become Amitabha Buddha again.
Weatherlock replied with a serious nod of his head.
“That midsummer seems to be an important friend to you, so I guess we can add that part as well.”
Weatherlock said that if Midsummer had a problem while working at the establishment, she would help with everything.
“If you get a disease or a curse, I will actively help you get cured. And if they are kidnapped, I will mobilize the city’s soldiers under my authority.”
“That should be enough.”
I couldn’t have asked for more anyway.
But while I nodded, I put on a puzzled expression.
Weatherlock, who read my expression, asked in a voice that sounded like flying iron powder.
“Is something wrong?”
“It is not…”
The reason why I made a puzzled expression…
Cure the disease
Also ensure safety.
It was safe to say that it did everything.
But what was surprising was the part that did all of that.
“I am surprised… Even if midsummer earns a lot of points… She didn’t know that she would do this. Is the establishment that important?”
It was because of the fact that she accepted unreasonable conditions only because of one ace male prostitute in the establishment.
But Weatherlock didn’t solve my doubts about that part.
“Think of it as a personal matter.”
It turned out that he had no intention of answering.
In that way, the contract was able to proceed formally after adding a few more clauses.
Even the contract was not made through Madam, but the person himself wrote it through the mana contract.
It wasn’t me who was surprised by that appearance, but Madame and Ludwig.
“Your father signed the contract himself?”
“Wedlock, the one I mediate is…”
Despite the doubts and restraints of the two, Weatherlock wrote the mana contract himself.
“It’s okay. It’s rude to sign a contract with someone else who has invited you all the way here.”
After such an important errand, Weatherlock began to ask me various questions.
Most of them were stories about the hardships and adversity they experienced after coming to Yggdrasil.
How did you come up here from the 0th floor…
‘What… Can I tell you about that?’
As a reward for his help, I told him the story of my adventures, excluding the Midsummer Return.
It was Madame and Ludwig, not Weatherlock, who were really surprised by my story.
“Shockby… It seems that you have become much stronger than the people who came up last time said.”
Hee hee! If the guys who came up in the early days heard this story, they would want to fight and go crazy!”
And next was a story about Cerberus.
Even Ludwig broke into a cold sweat when the story of Cerberus came up.
“Hey… Hi-Hi… Cerberus… To think that he was the kind of person who saw that monster and roamed this world alive…”
“Recently, I heard that there is an item called [Cerberus’ Eyeball] Circulating in the casino… The owner of the rumor must have been Mr. Seong Su-ho.”
Those who live in Yggdrasil should know better what Cerberus’ status is.
A monster that is docile to those who enter toward death, but chews up those who leave it longing for life.
To them, Cerberus, who is related to death, would be the most terrifying being in the world.
However, I kept quiet about the story on the second floor.
The reason was simple.
‘It would be best to refrain from talking about the afterlife as much as possible.’
He spent the entire meal talking about his experiences in Yggdrasil.
After finishing the meal like that, Weatherlock spoke to me with slightly interested eyes unlike before.
“Today was fun. When the time comes later… I will invite you again.”
“Thank you.”
After saying that, Weatherlock left the restaurant with Madame.
Me and Ludwig talked as we left the restaurant together after Weatherlock had left.
“Hee hee… It’s the first time in my life that my father talks so happily.”
“Happily… ? Isn’t that quiet enough?”
Except for when we talked about the transaction earlier, we hardly said anything…
But that was entirely my opinion.
“I have never in my life heard my father speak more than five words during a meal. Even when he’s talking in public!”
“Haha…”
It was said that the story of Weatherlock’s transaction earlier was a shock to Ludwig.
“Hee hee… You seem to be talking a lot because your father sees hope in you.”
“Hope?”
To my question, Ludwig shook her head and avoided answering.
Hee hee! That’s not something I’m going to talk about, so I can’t tell you. Still, if you stay on the 3rd floor and keep winning, the day will come when you understand what I mean. Then!”
Ludwig hurriedly left, leaving behind her evasive answer.
And I’m left…
“After… It’s finally over. We have to go quickly.”
I walked quickly towards the carriage that was waiting outside the mansion.
Crab Kkosu asked me curiously at my appearance.
└Guardian of gay dicks: Where are you going?
“I have to go to Bom soon.”
└Guardian of gay dicks: ? Why is Hanbom?
“I’m still going to let go of yesterday’s anger.”
Yesterday, I couldn’t solve it properly because of the after party.
And today, during the day, I was wandering around the Red Crescent Moon hideout, so I couldn’t take care of it properly…
└Guardian of a gay cock: hahaHow can I free him?
“Release Bom’s anger is simple.”
└Guardian of gay dicks: What is it?
I smiled and answered Gekkosu’s question.
“If you suck on the milk in your breasts, it will go away on its own.”
└Guardian of gay dicks: haha
If I force maternal love out, I’ll be able to do something.
I tasted the heart of Hanbom like that… No, I hurriedly got on the carriage with the thought of wanting to reconcile with Hanbom.
