Chapter 329 – Cloud of War
The remaining time until the demon of the tower starts to stir is about two weeks.
Seo-joon confided this to his party.
The blood-sucked deaths increased day by day.
Even the police officer who was patrolling in the middle of the night was hunted by vampires-, and the Heretic Questioner, who was said to arrive within a few days, went missing, to the point where it was impossible to ascertain whether he was alive or dead.
A cold war cloud hung over the city.
The only people who didn’t know that were small workers, housekeepers living like ephemera, or blood clots that were busy bleeding their noses.
The quick-witted merchants scrambled to leave the city, and the nobles took their goods and sent out their families.
Since Seppa was getting wild, he planned to leave the mansion empty until it subsided.
As the situation worsened, the professors of the Mage Tower also took the lead in finding vampires. In the process, he caught quite a few vampires, but more and more of them died.
No one felt that Seojun’s words were absurd. Rather, it was an atmosphere of understanding and understanding.
“I heard rumors that a paladin will be dispatched-. Are you going to hold out until then?”
It was Ian’s question.
As expected, he did not even think of abandoning the city and running away. This was the same for Lily next to him.
“Still, there are wizards…, Will they collapse in vain like that…?”
“That, yes. My brother did that. I heard that wizards are the ones who interpret and handle mysteries. There are so many people who build that big tower and create something out of nothing—the devil of the tower or whatever—I wonder if I can somehow defeat someone like that?”
Seo-joon, who had been silently listening to the two men and women, asked back.
“Who is the strongest person in that mage tower?”
“…That’s right, isn’t it the Master of the Magic Tower?”
It was Monica’s answer. Seojun shook his head.
“Yes, that tower master is the devil of the tower.”
At Seojun’s words, everyone opened their jaws.
Although he said so, he did not mean that they were the same person.
It would be more accurate to say that the devil of the tower ‘ate’ the mage master.
The Devil of the Tower was a high-ranking vampire with the title of count.
The reason he was in the Mage’s Tower was because of the greed of the Mage’s owner, who had been 100 and 2 years older.
Any good man would be afraid when death approached. Qin Shi Huang, who commanded the continent, did not take a bath in mercury and search for the herb of immortality.
Even though he lived a century, he attracted the devil to live longer.
Of course, at first, it must have been the intent to confine the devil in a magic circle and study it. Audrey Yvette, the next owner of the Mage Tower, knew of its existence—it was because she also helped coordinate the magic circle.
But even she wouldn’t have thought that she ate the mage tower master in order to become the devil of the tower.
What is a devil
They were the ones who constantly brought agony to humans and dragged them down to the pit of desire.
From the moment he attracted the devil in the hope of eternal life in the first place, it was like a set procedure for his mind to be corrupted.
“Not only that, there are vampires hiding inside the magic tower. Even if you catch a small amount, you can say that 20% of the city is a vampire.”
Vampires deal with demons.
It was a difficult opponent for those who did not know how to handle mana. At least there had to be a silver weapon. If it wasn’t for that, I would have had to carry a bottle of holy water that was distributed by the Holy Church.
Seo-joon took out several leather canteens from his bag.
“…I can’t believe that’s-“
“Holy water.”
The Heretic Questioner’s necklace contained divine power.
Therefore, it was possible to purify it just by soaking it in water, but purification here does not mean a water purification function that changes muddy water to clear. He spoke of purifying demons.
“So- if you apply this water to your sword, you’re saying you can cut a vampire?”
“Yeah, if you put it on your body, they won’t be able to stick their nails in.”
It was clear why Seo-joon was bringing these things out.
He wants everyone to stay in the city and fight.
Ian, as well as Lily, Monica, and Marjorie silently picked up leather canteens filled with holy water and hung them from their waists.
Stunned by that, Bella jumped out of her seat and stood up.
“···Really? Really? To fight? Crazy everyone! Are you insane? Haven’t you heard that 20% of the city is vampires? Haven’t you guys ever met a vampire?”
She said that she had once passed through a village devastated by a single vampire – spattering.
It was also a large-scale village with more than 50 households-, even though it had its own guard, they were beaten that way.
“I don’t need to tell you how horrifying the mutilated corpse was. When the intestines flow… Anyway-! This is suicidal…! More than anything···.”
Why do you have to stay in the city that long?
At Bella’s question, her companions were silent. But the heart was clearly conveyed.
I was determined to stay. Reluctantly, Bella grabbed Seo-jun’s forearm.
“Brother, let’s just run away, huh? Is it because of that, that Audrey, that woman? Then she just needs to take that woman and run away… He said the magic tower might collapse… If you die like this-, is it really a dog’s death-?”
Bella, as usual when she seduces Seo-jun while falling in love with him-, put her hand down and gently kneaded his balls and breathed into his ears. Thin breasts pressed against his forearms.
“I’m fine… I’ll do anything my brother asks me to do. Suck your butthole, and again, and again- Oh, oppa, I’ll give birth to a child too. How is it···? Huh? Or do you want something else?”
“Stop it! You crazy bitch!”
Marjorie, who was watching her frowning beside her, grabbed Bella by the hair and threw her to the floor.
Ahh-! Marjorie screamed and grabbed her by the collar as she fell over.
“If you want to escape, run alone! Fuck the vampire- that’s no big deal! If you cut it with a knife, it will bleed – if your head is cut off, you will all die the same!”
Margery looked straight into Bella’s quivering eyes – adding strength to her own assertion.
“They say the paladins are coming too? If Seojuni had told Professor Audrey about it, he would have started preparing at the Mage’s Tower as well. There is hope-. Clearly.”
“…But-!”
Bella sniffed away her tears.
“But I’m scared…! It’s scary…! You don’t know when you might get a throat on the road…! Besides, vampires love the blood of beautiful women so much… What should I do···? Huh? What should I do, oh oh oh!”
For some reason, it was Seo-joon who burst into laughter at those words.
He put an end to Bella who shouted why she was laughing.
“If you want to go, go. I won’t stop you.”
Bella bit her lip, and she slumped on the floor for a while, breathing heavily. When she got up from the floor afterward, she had tears in her eyes.
It was the first time she had ever seen her crying so sadly because she was such a tomboy.
She packed her things and stood straight in the doorway without looking back.
“I hope everyone is safe. I’m serious.”
She murmured and she opened the door.
Before leaving-, she glared at Seo-joon with her wet eyes and left one more word.
“Pup-.”
Rattle-
As soon as the door closed, Margery let out a sigh.
She was the one who fought the most fiercely with Bella-, but she was also the one who cared for Bella the most.
“For a moment···. I’ll come pick you up.”
Even she left her room-, Seo-joon looked out the window at her still pouring rain.
Courage-
The silence was also short-, as if the nobleman couldn’t do it, a commotion immediately broke out in the next room.
Everyone looks at Seojun’s face.
Also, is she that woman…?
Seojun patted Ian on the shoulder and glanced at Monica. It meant taking care of the situation.
She told her beforehand.
All the stories about the tower’s demons, vampires, and the Heretic Questioner.
Monica had a quicker turn of her head than I thought, and she was, above all else, a woman who knew her subject matter.
It’s a pity why I didn’t appoint her until now. Of course, it could be because the child in the womb became a half-hostage, but-.
In fact, even though she got drunk with Audrey this time, her help was not small.
It was she who spilled her tales of her conjugal education, and it was she who periodically fed her Audrey a depressant tea.
In the future, she was to be a helper for Seo-jun, whom he could entrust his back to. She will also become a sword.
Even Seo-joon wasn’t sure if she could stab someone in the back without hesitation, but it was definitely her most reliable hand.
At least until she gave birth to a baby-.
[All off! Go away…!]
But he…
I honestly don’t know.
After leaving the room, Seo-joon opened the door to the next room and entered.
A shattered soup bowl lay on the floor, and the maid-Amanda, who was picking up the pieces, sighed quietly as she looked back at Seo-joon. A look of exhaustion was evident.
On her bed-, a woman, bound by her thick chains, struggled against her and poured her tusks at her.
“You bastard…!”
A dark-skinned woman who looked at Seo-jun’s face and glared at her.
It was Kesha.
