Chapter 535 – 529 Turad Village
Knock knock.
The signal from the inner pocket that Hwanyeon has something to say reaches the chest.
Hwanin, who was walking in the front, turned around at the signal and told the apostles and nobles who were following him to go first.
“Isilite stays, and the three of you go with the villagers first.”
=Yes, Master.=
= Ong. =
The apostles and the retainers looked a bit concerned at the expression that the two of them had something to talk about, but Anne and Baek Ryeo-gang immediately followed, so they started walking again.
When the people were a certain distance away, Hwanin asked first.
“Did you find the human suspected of being a spy?”
“Yes. There are four people suspected of being bribed by the black magician. One spy confirmed. Since Hwanin has sent everyone back to their homes and the village is quiet, I think they are trying to get out of the village.”
So far, everything is as planned.
Speaking of black magicians, they are experts in curses. What will the black magician whose identity is revealed do?
Considering these two things, the result is clear.
Work to create a retreat, whistleblowers, and destruction of evidence.
The double evidence destruction was solved and the whistleblower was also found, so the only thing left was to find the black magician’s retreat.
‘Sorry.’
The appearance of the curse bomb was more hideous than I thought, so I gave priority to securing safety and opened the spirit spell, but this is regrettable.
If the bomb had been suitable, I could have touched it on purpose and induced the black magician to attack us. The energy was too weak to just leave it alone or explode it arbitrarily.
The most annoying situation at this point is the frightened black magician locking himself in the labyrinth.
The best situation is for the pissed off black magician to lead the monsters and attack first.
But black magicians are human too. If you had just seen the Spirit Spell, your tension and alertness would have been at their maximum. Maybe he would choose to run away after throwing everything away and incinerating the evidence and traces.
=Me, master? Why is it annoying that the dark magician is locked up in the labyrinth? Anne is also familiar with curses, and her older sister Yuri is also knowledgeable about her magic…….=
If the black magician is stuck in the labyrinth, even if he remodels the labyrinth, wouldn’t he just have to destroy everything with overwhelming force between himself and Anne? There is also the master’s pattern enhancement soul art.
In response to Isilite’s question, which clearly seemed to be thinking that way, Hwanin smiled lightly and caressed her soft cheek.
“What we are looking closely at is whether the labyrinth has been altered at the hands of the black magician. If it has been altered, how has it been altered?”
=Yes.=
“Among those changes, the disappearance of the labyrinth is included.”
=…… !=
“It is said that labyrinths usually collapse within a few hours after the core is broken. But what if even that part was changed so that the black magician touched it and immediately collapsed?”
The collapse of the labyrinth is different from the collapse of ordinary structures and buildings.
The inside of the labyrinth is a place isolated from the outside world and can be said to be a completely different dimension.
And when such a labyrinth disappears, those who remain inside the labyrinth face three major situations.
In case of being transferred to a random place outside the labyrinth.
In the case of disappearing from the world with the disappearance of the labyrinth.
In the case of being lost in a dimension and wandering forever in a place like deep space.
=…….=
“…….”
“That’s why it’s best for us to solve it without entering the labyrinth.”
“How are you going to solve it? Is there a way to kill the black magician outside the labyrinth without entering? Even the spirits can’t spread their power outside the labyrinth.”
“Of course I have something in mind.”
There was ferocity in Hwanin’s pale smile, but Isilite was a good sunflower for her owner, and Hwanyeon was a half-human, half-spirit that looked a lot like him, so both of them passed without hesitation.
“Ah. The spy is out of the house now. She’s sneaking toward the west gate of town.”
“Okay. Isilite, go get him.”
=Yes. What to do with a suspected spy?=
“They are problems for the villagers to solve.”
=Yes.=
Isilite, who heard the spy’s impression from Hwanyeon, stepped on the sword of light and it ricocheted out like a bullet from her.
=…….=
Anne, who entered the apostle’s house first, leaving Hwanin and Isilite outside, was slightly angry at the villagers.
Since it is a town that is far from development, I understand that you do not know what a spirit spirit is and do not know that it is a sensation like a wave of tranquility. She didn’t even notice at first that the spirit spell was a step forward from Tranquility Wave.
However, if you think about it for a bit, can’t you see that there is nothing to see with the sword as a risk factor?
The priest and holy fighter of the Church of the Earth God is by his side. He listens to everything he says, even though his everyday behavior is as noble and dignified as his outward appearance.
Yul-i, who has a mysterious charm and an intellectual feeling unique to the sorcerer family, and Dew Seul-i, who has a beauty as bright as the sun in the sky and a body like a goddess of abundance, but is loyal to Do-ryeong, calling her master.
All of them are just extraordinary people. However, she casts a suspicious gaze on her lord who carries such women, suspecting that she may be part of the black magician’s gang.
=Don’t be so angry.=
=…… Isn’t Yul’s sister angry?=
=It’s because we started going out with him and met a lot of people with excellent education, so our eyes were raised.
=…….=
=It is said that ignorance is a sin, but that applies to those who have many opportunities to learn. You know very well that those people’s reactions and thoughts are common, right?=
That’s right. It’s to the extent that they can’t see the history of the soul a few times in their lifetime.
Do-ryeong knows that, so he probably won’t say anything. In order to change their perception, we have to reveal the fact that it is a spirit company, but to do so, we are currently moving while hiding our identities.
You might wonder what it would be like to disguise yourself and use the spirit spell while moving, but even if the effect is unique, the pillar of light phenomenon that occurs when activated is quite similar.
And now it is broad daylight, and it is a steppe with no villages or villages within 1,000 kilometers.
I heard that nomads live, but how many nomads have witnessed the gray pillar of light from before? And how many more people would think that the pillar of light was a spirit lord?
Maybe the placenta thinks it’s a sign of a big battle.
As long as you don’t reveal the identity of the spirit master, the probability of your activities being discovered is still low. Even so, the people who will follow the trail will have the skills to track them, even if they are not such spirit possessors.
In the end, the use of the Spirit Spell was not a big problem. Even if it becomes a problem, is it to the extent that troublesome guys follow?
Anne let out a relieved sigh as she watched as the nobles who had sent the villagers back to their homes entered the house one by one and sat down, paying attention to them.
=Sorry, sister. I was a little angry and couldn’t calm down.=
= No. I understand why Miss Anne is angry. No matter how suspicious she was of finding the cursed bomb right away, what they did was not out of curiosity about the method, but because they suspected the black magician and her accomplice. That’s gone too far.=
Why wouldn’t it be angry with Yurpa? She is holding back her anger because she is following the will of her Hwanin.
‘But a caution and a warning would be fine…’ ….’
Recalling the Hwanin’s intentions and plans, Yurpa mate. She clapped her hands lightly, drawing the attention of the town officials, and then opened her mouth in a slightly cold tone.
=Apostle of Turad Village, and retainers. Now you guys should know that you are making a huge mistake.=
=… If you teach this village fool, I will open my ears and listen…….=
= You are us… I suspected that the boy was working with the black magician to find the cursed bomb. It’s not like that, but I should have carefully asked how to do it.=
The apostle of Turad village did not refute or protest what he said, but just bowed deeply.
It was because I belatedly realized that the person the girls were talking about was an unusual person from the explosion of light that exploded right in front of their eyes.
Even though he is an apostle who has lived in the countryside all his life, he knows at least one thing.
A person who has mastered one skill to the extreme is also unusually high in other skills.
The explosion of light could be said to be a skill that had reached its peak. Is the person who blew away all the curses like that weak even by force?
Besides, didn’t you say that the girl with deer antlers on her head and a lizard-like tail on her buttocks was the weakest child in his group? Still, he knocked down all the town rangers.
The apostle lowered his head so deep that his forehead touched the table and opened his mouth.
=I have nothing to say about our foolish behavior. What kind of stupid thing did you do to the person who came running to help from afar…… !=
‘Still, he’s aware.’
If I hadn’t noticed, I would have been very angry.
=Unni, Doryeong is coming.=
Yurpa nodded at Anne’s whisper and gave a final warning to the apostles and retainers.
They said that they and the young master heard Sister Kisagi’s complaints and came to help you without any cost. So please don’t show me the same disrespectful behavior a moment ago.
When the villagers nodded her heads, taking the warning to heart, Hwanin entered the house.
“…… ?”
Hwan-in, who briefly interrogated the spy captured by Isilite and entered the apostle’s house, looked around at the people in the stiff atmosphere of the hall.
Village leaders with nervous expressions and gestures as if they had been warned by their girlfriends.
After looking at them for a while, Hwanin called Issilite and pointed to the long table they were at.
“Put it over there.”
=Yes.=
Issilite drags her mole by the scruff of the neck and, with a swish, throws her mole onto the table with one character.
A spy who was thrown onto the table with a roar, a woman with pig ears in casual clothes that women in the village usually wear, screamed and groaned as she twisted her body, and red blood dripped from her nose, mouth, and wounds on her body.
As people stumbled back in surprise or flinched away, the apostle opened her mouth in dismay.
= This is……. What the hell…….=
“It’s a spy planted in the village by a black magician.”
The apostle, who was unable to follow his words, opened his mouth wide. Not only the apostles, but also the retainers.
Believe it or not, Yuji Hana jumped up and shouted at the woman who was wriggling in her pain.
= Luor! Is what he said true?! You are the spy of that black magician!?=
= Kkeuheu…….=
= You were born in the village, got married in the village, and have lived up to this point! You are a spy!=
“To be precise, I was pacified by a black magician. He mentioned the first and second wives as reasons for being appeased. The deal was that he would kill them both and their children if he would help him.”
=…… !=
The content was beyond imagination, and the blood drained from the complexion of the retainers. You asked to kill your family?
= I…… Gee, I have a question.=
Yara, one of the retainers, asks with her black panther ears flattened as if frightened.
=That, how did you get that fact from Luor…… Did you find out? If he were a spy, he wouldn’t have said anything like a deal, even for the sake of his own life…….=
“It gave me the right amount of bluff, pain, and a reminder of who was in my party.”
As her phantom gaze turned to the beautiful silver-haired Fleur, her Anne, the villagers in her hall also saw her and reflexively nodded to her.
“And now, I’m going to go through the final check, so please listen. Yurpa, please heal that woman with the potion. And Anne is the Truth-Watcher, and watch to see if that woman is lying.”
= Huh? I will. =
= Huh? Yes.=
Hwanin asked the pig-eared woman, who had been forcibly given a potion by Yurpa and recovered.
Are you a spy?
Why did you become a spy?
Has she ever entered the dark mage’s labyrinth?
How did the inside of the labyrinth change?
What was the black magician doing?
What happened to the women who were offered as human sacrifices?
Right.
He said he would kill the 1st and 2nd wives he didn’t want to see and make her the 1st wife.
Have.
She hasn’t changed much.
He was cooking something like medicine by boiling a pot that smelled bad.
Became a black magician’s test subject.
An atmosphere of bewilderment permeates the hall as Anne casts a golden light from her silver eyes, casting the fleurs’ innate ability, her ability to see through the truth in the words and actions of her opponents, to discredit her answers. It happens.
People whose brains go on strike in half due to a series of shocking facts and information.
While everyone was unable to open their mouths due to the shock, the apostle spoke in a weak voice.
=Beast god, my God……. How can you fall for the black magician…… How…….=
=Chem and Torena… They tortured not only me but also my children and Yunu. If your husband dies… At that time, she kicked me and my children out of the house, ridiculed me by saying that I would not give them a penny of my property, and threatened to kill my children if I told them about this, and she did it every day…….=
=…… Could it be that you didn’t plant that cursed bomb in the village?=
=…….=
Seeing him not responding, the apostle’s legs gave out and he slumped down on the chair, and most of the dignitaries turned dark.
Everyone thought it was a friendly village, like one family, but this kind of poisonous mushroom was growing…… ?
Hwanin gave an emotionless gaze to the devastated people and said.
“We’ll leave right now, so I’ll leave that woman’s disposal to the apostle and her retainers.”
= Yes, yes? Uh… Where do you mean you’re going?=
“Now that we have obtained the necessary information, shouldn’t we accomplish the purpose of visiting the village?”
=…… !=
Oh no. Less than an hour has passed since we arrived in the village, but so quickly?
“It seems that the woman has been in and out of her labyrinth where the black magician is. She also has a light blast from just now and there is no reason to delay more. And the Doha Patrol Captain.”
=Yes, yes.=
“After we leave, the dark magician’s creations may attack the village. We will take care of everything in sight along the way, but be prepared.”
=Yes. I will…….=
Hwanin did not care whether or not the village apostles and retainers were heartbroken, and found the stable where Bisang and Que were gathered and gave instructions to Yurupa.
“Yurpa, please remain in the village with emergency. If you notice something suspicious in the town, you can wipe it out without showing mercy. At that time, it is an emergency, you should also add strength. Until then, keep everyone safe.”
Cue!
= Yes. Leave this to me and go carefully.
“Yes. I’ll be right back. Isilite, Anne, Baekryeogang. Branch.”
=Yes.=
=Four!=
As she left the village with her party’s best female friends and headed west where there was a wolf labyrinth, Anne let out a long sigh like a sigh.
The sound of breathing as if anger had accumulated inside something. Seeing her ears droop down, Hwanin asked, holding her hand with her gauntlet on.
“Is the reaction of the villagers that stressful?”
=…… Yes. I was a little angry because I wanted to know how to do that even if I doubted it, but thanks to Yul talking with her sister, it’s okay now. =
=I understand the feelings of the villagers, but…… I was disappointed to show it off. How could you be so suspicious of someone who came to help…….=
The White Lady crinkled her brow cutely and complained, but Isilite, with her calm face, did not move away from her Hwanin’s side and spoke her opinion as she walked.
=Don’t call villagers villagers for no reason. They are stupid because they live like ephemera without thinking about learning. …… Just like me before meeting the Master.=
=…….=
=…….=
Anne and Baek Ryeo-gang shut their mouths at the story, and the atmosphere subsides in an instant.
Hwanin thought it was not a very good phenomenon and burst into a small laugh. The response came right back. The three women opened their eyes slightly wide and began to look at Hwanin.
“Certainly, Issilite was amazing back then. She even asked if I was a faggot.”
=…… !=
= Eh? Really!?=
=Really?=
Perhaps she didn’t know that the story would come out, Isilite said. Walk out.
Anne, who looked at her from the back for a while and her phantom, couldn’t hold back her curiosity and asked her,
=Doryeongdoryeong, tell me in detail. How did you come up with that word?=
“At that time, when I had just met her, I rented a room in her inn because she had no money and no ability. Somehow, she ends up sleeping in the same room as Isilite……. A couple of times she said to check her aura, she looked at her lower belly and it seemed like I assumed there was something dark about her body.”
= Foot… ! … So?=
“Suddenly, he took off his clothes and put on only underwear shorts and said, ‘I will become the owner of this body anyway, so do whatever you want.’”
At that time, as she explained what had happened, Isilite, who had been walking ahead with her blushing appearance up to her ears, ran after her and hugged her Hwanin’s chest, telling her to stop and crying.
= Lord, Master! At that time, I was an idiot who didn’t really know anything. Oh……. Please stop…….=
“Okay. So, how disturbing it was to see them attacking like an angry cow. Seeing me like that, she got suspicious and asked if I was a homo.”
= Aaah…… !=
In the end, the image of Isilite squatting and covering her ears was the image of her maiden struggling with her shame and dark history.
Thinking that teasing her any more would hinder her movement, her Hwanin soothes Isilite and reprimands Anne and Baek Ryogang, whose expressions have become strange as they desperately hold back her laughter.
No, does it make sense to tell you not to laugh after laughing? However, Anne and Baek Ryeo-gang forcefully suppress their laughter and try to trim their lips.
Because I don’t want to taste her spicy hands while laughing in front of Isilite who exploded with shame.
“Since that old farmhand has become a beautiful maiden like a goddess, she must be saying that she can’t know the affairs of the world.”
= Master…….=
“Ruler. If you feel relieved, should you speed up a little? Hwanyeon, don’t neglect to monitor your surroundings, and focus on Isilite and Anne. Baek Ryogang thinks this is an experience and follows a little behind.”
=Yes.=
=Yes!=
=Four!=
Among the spirits that gradually began to stand out, Hwanin attracted mainly water, fire, and wind to turn them into soul beads, and ran quickly along the road created by the constant movement of the wagon.
He keeps his spirit vision open and monitors his surroundings, but there is no sign of life or spirit. The area around the road is not polluted by takgi or curses, and the creatures of the black magician hide and do not attack.
=I think this is a labyrinth?=
=It looks like an ordinary rocky hill from the outside.=
=Maybe it’s because it’s a first-class labyrinth.=
At first glance, the front of the labyrinth, which we reached after running for about 20 minutes with an intermediate level spirit command, is just an ordinary hill with piles of rocks. And the surrounding area was nothing more than a paddy field overgrown with weeds, like a fallow field.
Arriving in front of the labyrinth, Hwan-in and his women searched the surroundings, including bushes, bushes, hills, and hills within a radius of 1 km, looking for the creatures, but could not see any traces.
The party gathered again in front of the labyrinth, which opened its mouth black like a cave descending underground.
= Didn’t they put it outside as a watchman? I’m too careless. =
In response to Anne’s feelings, Issilite still remained alert and answered.
=You could have concentrated your power inside the labyrinth. If you put a sentinel outside, you’re advertising that there’s a dark magician here.=
=Yes.=
Taking out a kite shield and a normal war hammer, Anne asked her phantom.
= Doryeong. Can’t you tell me what you plan to do now?=
“There is nothing wrong with the plan. This labyrinth is not shielded like a prison labyrinth, but an open entrance like most labyrinths. It’s pouring water here with the power of fantasy.”
= Eh……. Filling the labyrinth with water? Is that possible?=
“As you may have heard, this labyrinth is level 1. Plus, since it’s on the first floor, it’s smaller than the labyrinth I’ve been to in Ouling.”
However, the entrance is not shielded, and it is a form that goes down to the basement in an appropriate way. This is an ideal condition for writing a water system.
If there is an invisible crack in the labyrinth and the water continues to drain, it is no problem. You just have to pour as much as the water drains out.
Hwan-yeon, who came out of the village and climbed on Hwan-in’s shoulder, heard Hwan-in’s reckless plan and replied in a bewildered manner.
“You have to use a lot of strength to do that? It’s a water spirit. There’s a lake over that hill, so it’s inexhaustible, but with my own power…….」
“Core nuclear force is energy created by the gathering of the forces of nature. I will keep replenishing the energy, so all you have to do is bring in at least heat as an intermediate level water spirit and pour water on it.”
“When did you learn that again……. Okay, wait a minute.”
Hwanyeon, who flew to the lake without her words to wait, returned in less than a minute, bringing with her a water spirit spirit similar in size to her.
However, Hwanin couldn’t praise him for going back quickly while watching such a fantasy.
An unexpected figure who follows her…… No, it was because of the unexpected spirit.
“…… !”
A man-sized spirit made entirely of blue water. A water spirit with the lower body of a fish, wrapped in translucent light like a winged fairy’s wing, was staring at him from behind as if having fun.
