[ Episode 373. The movement of the desert]
The chieftain of the Red Fox Tribe, located near the Black Scorpion Tribe, tilted his head at the sudden notification.
“You’re not attending the exchange meeting because you have a guest?”
“That’s right.”
“Huh.”
Mulachi, the chieftain of the red fox, sighed in disbelief. Then his son and heir, Manum, shouted in his stead.
“Is that what I’m going to tell you with the exchange meeting right around the corner?!”
“sorry.”
The lion from the black scorpion tribe lowered its head. Nevertheless, when Manum, who was not relieved of his anger, cheered up, the chieftain, Mulachi, stepped forward.
“Stop it. A guest came, but I can’t help it.”
“Where is this rudeness! It’s a big event prepared not only by our tribe, but by all the tribes in the desert…”
As Manum’s words continued, the lion lowered his head. After observing the situation for a while, Mulachi opened his mouth again.
“I wonder how important he is to say that he is not attending the exchange meeting. They must be more important than the exchange meeting held in four years.”
“That’s it…”
Manum glared at the lion, who was speechless with a troubled expression. Soon, as he gasped for breath, one of the Red Fox Chief’s men hurriedly approached him.
“This is important news, Mr. Mulachi.”
“What is it?”
“News that Salem Yedidiah and Luna Pendragon Adrias Cromwell have appeared in Tungai Village, a neutral zone.”
“……What?”
Mulachi was taken aback by the completely unexpected news. At the same time, the black scorpion lion flinched upon hearing those names.
“You can’t believe it……”
Manum just spotted it and raised a finger.
“The word “important guests” doesn’t mean those who just came out, right?”
“They are right.”
When the lion finally admitted it, everyone present was surprised.
“How could the Black Scorpion invite such people? It makes no sense.”
“I don’t know the details either. Just tell
them that they will not be able to attend due to the matter of attending an exchange meeting. ”
“You guys! How dare you lie here!”
“It is true! I don’t know anything! I don’t even know how I invited such prominent people!”
Manum’s expression softened a little when the lion hurriedly waved his hand. No matter how you look at it, what he said seemed true.
“You must have gone to deliver the news to the other tribes, right?”
“That’s right.”
“I get it. Once you’ve checked, go back.”
The lion hurriedly exited at Mulachi’s order to celebrate.
In the room, where silence fell before long, Mulachi and Manum were silent, deep in thought.
“How are you, father?”
Manum opened his mouth slightly.
But Mulachi remained silent.
“Hmm, things got messed up.”
Just then, a sudden voice was heard from the corner of the room.
“Oh Crack. Are you there?”
Manum looked sideways at his father with a puzzled look and greeted him.
The person who appeared was not human.
It was a beast with the appearance of a wolf, covered with thick fur.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Crack. Due to an unexpected event, the black scorpion was left out.”
“I was listening too. There’s nothing wrong with missing something. Rather, if it’s a problem, it’s the guys who just talked about it.”
Crack’s eyes glowed amber.
Mulach swallowed dry saliva at that primordial life.
“Why did those guys visit the Shaiya Desert at this time? Besides, Salem Yedidiah and Luna Pendragon are famous warlocks. It’s a little surprising that Adrias Cromwell is with them.”
“Could he have noticed our plan…?”
“I must have smelled something. But since there is no accurate information, he must have gone to the Black Scorpion.”
After that, Craig hid himself secretly again. While Manum was admiring the bizarre stealth technique that disappeared before his eyes, Craig left a last message behind his back.
“Leave the black scorpion alone for now. Instead, always be vigilant and keep an eye on their movements.”
“Has confirmed.”
When the crack disappeared, Mulachi immediately called his men into the room.
“Did you call?”
“We need personnel to monitor the black scorpion. You probably know that rumors will spread anyway and they will be watched too. So you don’t have to act too hard. Just getting information is enough.”
“You mean Salem Yedidiah and his companions?”
“okay. Check out their schedules and dynamics. If you visit another tribe, or if another tribe visits, contact me.”
“All right.”
Manum, who watched the back of his subordinate as he left after receiving the order, cautiously expressed his opinion.
“Can I go check it out myself?”
“hmm?”
“As my father said, the fact that Salem Yedidia came to the desert must have already spread throughout the tribe. So even if I visit, the Black Scorpion side will inevitably accept it. Because the intention is obvious.”
“You’re using the fact that your intentions are obvious to dig up other information.”
“That’s right. As the son of the chieftain, I think I’m the perfect fit for that role.”
After thinking about Manum’s words for a while, Mulachi nodded.
“i get it. Anyway, don’t touch the other person’s heart.”
“Sure.”
thud!
Kwajangchang!
No sooner had Manum finished speaking, there was a noise outside. Mulach thought the noise was due to the preparations for the exchange meeting, but soon his expression changed as he heard the sound coming in succession.
Kwajik!
Wow- Kwajang!
“What’s going on out there!”
Manum shouted, opening the door to the room wide.
However, what flew in instead of an answer was someone’s body.
“100 million!”
Seeing Manum fall backward after colliding with someone who flew by, Mulachi pulled out his curved blade.
“What is this…!”
However, Mulachi opened his eyes wide and couldn’t hide his embarrassment when he broke down the door and confirmed the person who had entangled with his son.
“Crack?”
The person flying toward Manum was none other than Crag, the wolf-beast who had just left.
He fell unconscious, eyes closed, and Manum pushed the crack out of his body.
“Keugh.”
“Are you okay?”
“Looks like you broke some bones.”
Manum frowned as he touched his ribs.
It was proof that it flew so strongly, but I couldn’t guess who sent a beastman with a musculoskeletal system that was incomparable to that of a human with such power.
“gulp.”
Mulach swallowed involuntarily and moved closer to the door to check the direction the crack had come from.
“Oh, the greeting was a bit harsh. Sorry for breaking the door.”
Then, suddenly, a person entered the room.
“Who are you!”
“nice to see you. My name is Adrias Cromwell. I found a puppy on the way. Are you the owner?”
“Oh Adrias?!”
When an unexpected person appeared, Mulachi’s mouth fell open.
“Why are you here……”
“I have business to come. Actually, I don’t have business with the Red Fox Tribe, I have business there.”
Adrias chinned Crack.
Then Manum jumped up and opened his eyes.
“How dare you infiltrate the chief’s residence! No matter how famous you are, you are polite…”
“I don’t want to hear such a story from someone who pretends to be a minion of the scene.”
scene.
At the utterance of the word, Manum became a conjurer.
And Mulach shuddered, anxious about how Adrias had come to know that information.
“I don’t know what that moo means. A servant of Sin?”
Adrias smiled softly at Mulach, whose attitude suddenly became polite.
“There is no point in babbling like that. I already knew everything. The evidence is right in front of you.”
“That’s something we don’t know! I don’t even know who that prisoner is!”
Mulach shook his head violently in denial.
However, Manum thought it was too late and quietly put his hand on the hilt of his sword.
Blasphemy!
“100 million?”
“If you pull it out, you die.”
Suddenly, the magic was activated and Manum’s hand froze along with the sword. The swift and stealthy use of magic made Mulach and Manum realize once again that they were warlocks.
“Keugh! A guy who doesn’t even know the honor of being a warrior to say he won’t let you pull it out and say you’ll die if you pull it out!”
“If you want to be killed by a dog, I will release the magic right away.”
“…….”
Adrias said while touching the sword at his waist, and Manum’s mouth fell shut.
“As I said, I did not come because I have business with you. If you just keep quiet, it will take care of itself and disappear.”
At Adrias’s words, Mulachi quickly nodded.
“Do whatever you want.”
Adrias approached Crack.
Then Manum took a step back, avoiding Adrias, who was approaching involuntarily.
“Ugh.”
Manum, whose pride was hurt, groaned, but Adrias slung the crack over his shoulder with a face that didn’t care about his presence at all.
“It’s filthy big. Then I’ll just go. ah! Also, do your best at exchange meetings. Don’t make up anything weird.”
Seeing Adrias speak as if he knew everything, Mulach closed his eyes tightly. As if all this is a dream, not reality.
“I say it again. Do nothing. My mercy ends here.”
But Mulach had no choice but to open his eyes at the voice he heard again. When he opened his eyes, Adrias, who had come to his face before he knew it, was looking at him with cold eyes.
“Of course.”
“If Salem or someone else came here instead of me…”
After that, Adrias, who was silent as if to leave it to her imagination, went out the door.
“Hee hee hee hee.”
Mulach let out a rough breath, as if breathing had been released. Suddenly, Manum realized that he had been holding his breath, and took a breath with a pale complexion.
“What the heck…”
Mulach touched his face and muttered something about what happened a moment ago.
Craig, who thought he had returned, was taken by Adrias, who suddenly appeared and collapsed miserably. And that Adrias even warned them as if he knew everything.
‘If Salem Yedidiah had come as he said?’
Salem’s notoriety was famous.
If he thought it would interfere with his plans even a little, he would have killed him instead of letting him live.
“He must have come to know about the plan.”
“Otherwise, it makes no sense. I don’t know where or how I knew it, but I’ll have to be careful with what he said.”
No matter how frightening the scene was, the disasters that struck right in front of me were more frightening.
Even Adrias Cromwell would be so frightening, but there was no need to mention the notorious black magicians.
“Joe, let’s go quietly.”
“Wouldn’t retaliation come from the scene?”
“Manum! I couldn’t say anything earlier because I wasn’t in a hurry, but I’m not crazy, so why did you come out recklessly! retribution? Vowbok? Is this scene important? If Sin is the guys who only use their strength in the desert, then Salem Yedidia, no, those guys are the ones who play on a continental basis! Whoops!”
Mulachi, who was suddenly making a sudden acceleration and spewing out passionate words, grabbed the back of his neck and passed over.
“Oh father! Keugh!”
Manum, who was running towards Mulach, frowned and grabbed the ribs.
It was the ordeal of the red fox.
