Episode 41
Episode 22. Visiting the Witch of the Golden Tower (1)
It didn’t matter if Jisuka was dethroned and executed, even if it was the same as the original future.
However, Yuma was determined to prevent Varys from becoming the head of the Imperial Family.
First of all, it was certain that Heize had told Baris about Yuma.
That said, Varis might also be aware of Zekka’s existence. I一rc Yuma decided to twist the future by changing Zekka first.
In addition, Jeka was a person who could use it as his card as long as he could get rid of the symptoms.
Yuma was thinking of taking Zecca to see Hugo.
“My father would be very happy to know that I left the capital without his permission.”
Now Zeka was also talking to Yuma. Fortunately, he was temporarily relieved of his seizure symptoms.
“You have less resistance than I thought.
Then write a letter and go.
Write it down as I call it.”
“what?”
“I’m going to cool my head with magic bullet. 찾지 마세요 개새끼야.”
“It would be better to remove the back part. I don’t want to see all the servants die. Especially Liz.”
“good idea.”
“I don’t like to travel. If you have a seizure, it will be troublesome.”
“don’t worry. I’ll beat you enough so you won’t die and sink it.”
Zecca shrugged and decided to obediently follow Yuma.
Before departing, Yuma informed Puang and Cindy of the Demon Gul Subjugation Criteria for support.
“Choose those with skills above Sword Expert. Don’t reveal your salary. It only gives off the nuance that there will be many. In reality, along with the basic salary, we will distribute the proceeds from sales of monster parts.”
“The basic salary you mentioned earlier is quite high. 1 The treatment is similar to that of the 2nd class mercenaries.
By the way, they even distribute the sales proceeds?”
“It’s a life-threatening job, but you have to do it. Above all else, if you don’t split the sales, those rough friends will eventually cause trouble. Of course, 2 is what we go back to the 8 mercenaries of the proceeds.”
Zecca was listening to this story with a bottle of wine by her side. As soon as Cindy prepared the wagon, Yuma and Zeka set off for Matan.
“You do something pretty bold.
Subjugation of monsters?”
“If you are interested too, feel free to tell me. First, after getting out of Lord Hayes’ clutches.”
One year until the Jishka rebellion, two years until the Zekka runaway. There was plenty of time.
It was the land of Matan he hadn’t seen in a long time. Yuma sent the carriage back to the Empire without waiting.
The two of them climbed the rugged Egon Mountains comfortably, as if climbing a mountain behind them.
Jeka had tremendous stamina even after being drunk with Maggie.
The gatekeepers recognized Yuma’s face and opened the door without any special procedure.
“It must be true that you are protected by the Black Wolves. If you have a seizure here, the mercenaries will beat you to death.”
“Did you think it was a rumor? Bluffing is not my forte.”
Zecca looked at the back of Yuma’s head as he proudly entered the main house of the Worgs as if it were his own home.
A young, strong man with a strange sense of dignity.
For some reason, Zecca felt that Yuma could save her.
When Yuma entered the main building, the members recognized her face and each greeted her.
The members approached Yuma without hesitation, as if they were seeing a good friend after a long time.
“You bastard! A long time!”
Marlon patted Yuma on the shoulder and said.
“long time no see. This bastard mantan is finished.”
Marlon had long hair tied up like the men of Magican.
Now, no matter who sees it, it doesn’t look like an empire, but a man from Magic.
“I’ve heard all your rumors, man. You said you became a disciple of the King of Knights? Win the knight war.”
“It happened. Let’s discuss the details over a drink at night. Where is Hugo?”
“If you’re not here, it’s a battlefield.
He’ll probably be back tonight or tomorrow. who’s next to you I don’t think he’s like a boss bride.”
Marlon looked Zecca up and down.
Zecca didn’t care and turned her head as if looking inside the Black Wolf Corps.
“potman. Prepare some bottles of strong Matan liquor later. If this guy doesn’t drink, he’ll get a little sick.”
“don’t worry. You’ve been fine for the past few days. It’s not like I do that every day.”
said Jecca.
Yuma briefly introduced Zecca to Marlon. He spent the night drinking with Marlon Zecca until Hugo returned.
“I came to see my father not too long ago.”
“Uncle Haka? How are you? I need to see you sometime.”
There was a reason why Yuma wasn’t looking for Haka.
This is because he knows that if his relationship with him is revealed, Haka will be very tired.
Yuma wanted to help Haka live a quiet life.
“You seem to be doing well.
It seems that Baron Louis is very accommodating. Maria has become prettier too.”
“Hey, why did the word “beautiful” come out first? How do you usually get along? Isn’t something like this first?”
The three of them laughed and clinked glasses all night long.
Marlon asked Yuma a lot of questions, especially about Duran Jacques.
It was because he was a dream-like figure to the warriors who used swords.
“How is Kagor?”
“Senior Kagor? still the same be nice to me.”
“Always be vigilant though. That person is dangerous.”
“Okay, okay. Did you have any grudge against Kagor’s ship? It’s a mess every time I come.”
“Listen to me. Understand?”
“I get it. By the way, is the King of Knights really as strong as our boss?”
“Well, shouldn’t you know by sticking around?”
“I also want to meet you once.
you’ve seen both Who do you think will win?”
“Hmm, I don’t know. I’ll introduce you to the Empire. So bring more drinks, Marlon.”
Before returning, Yuma recalled the image of Marlon, who suffered from being adopted by Duran Jacques.
Marlon, a rather simple-minded man, did not understand the politics and life of the aristocrats until the moment of his death.
‘So I committed suicide. Foolish and pitiful bastard.’
When he was a swordsman, Malone Zak was a strong man comparable to Duran Zak. After Hugo and Duran died, he was the world’s strongest.
The brute strength he showed against the demons and dragons in the Dragon Horse War was a story that was always talked about among the world even after the war was over.
Even so, the result is suicide.
Yuma thought of the futility of being the strongest and the brutal nature of power, and drank a glass of wine.
He vowed that he would never let his life end like that.
All the while drinking, Zecca had a seizure and had nothing to talk about about how she attacked Yuma and was beaten up.
By the afternoon of the next day, Hugo had returned to the Worg headquarters.
Only three people returned after completing the mission: Hugo, Yugir, and Kagor. Hugo was not the type to carry out missions with many men.
Ogre Slayer.
A man who defeats an army with single-handed power is the same as the magic bullet’s decisive battle weapon.
That’s why there was no need to bring a lot of subordinates with him unless it was a special situation.
When Hugo entered, all the members of the Worgs immediately lined up and saluted.
“After visiting the battlefield, a swindler is here.”
Hugo said, pointing at Yuma with his giant finger.
His expression barely changed, so Yuma didn’t know he was grinning.
He was still exuding great energy.
However, Yuma felt that he was not afraid to face him like before.
Hugo didn’t show his energy more than before, but it was because Yuma had grown that much.
Still, it was a trembling feeling of intimidation.
As soon as Zecca saw Hugo, she put the bottle down, straightened her awkward posture, and lowered her eyes.
Instinct required it. Come on, lower your head and be as polite as possible.
“You are a fraudster. The bride is eagerly sought. Long time no see, Mr. Hugo.”
“You’ve gotten stronger.”
Hugo said while looking at Yuma’s face.
“Have you become much stronger?”
“no. You have only grown a little stronger.”
“I am surprised. I thought I was pretty strong.”
“It seems that Duran’s teachings are not enough.”
“Shall we learn something from Hugo?”
“Unless you become a black wolf, you cannot learn strength from me.”
Hugo’s eyes were on Marlon.
Yuma didn’t miss Kagor’s expression behind Hugo. He nodded and smiled as if he agreed with Hugo’s words.
‘That crazy bastard won’t leave Marlon alone. What the heck, superhumans neglect their disciples’ lives too much.’
After Durand adopted Malone, he didn’t care about anything other than training.
Of course, he gave the order ‘don’t let anyone touch that child’, but the many gods of the Zach family couldn’t be good children who listened to adults.
Hundreds of assassination attempts and bullying.
Perhaps Duran thought that it was also part of training.
If it were Yuma now, he would be able to overcome all those assassination attempts and persecution.
‘But even if it were me, it would have been quite difficult if I had been through that since I was seventeen. Marlon was good enough.’
It was clear that Marlon would be checked by Cagor again thanks to Hugo’s irresponsible succession.
Fortunately, unlike the Jacques, there was no one but Cagor to be in trouble with.
Hugo’s gaze moved to Jecca.
“Say your name.”
“This is my Jecca.”
It was the first time in my life that I was so afraid of someone that I couldn’t even raise my head.
Jeka felt like an animal herself. If he was a rabbit, Hugo was a lion.
From the moment she saw Hugo, Zecca felt that the magic within her body was shrinking. Even Margie seemed afraid of Hugo.
Red eyes shimmering like fireworks shot from Hugo’s eyes.
‘Cahel-sama also said it wasn’t a demonic eye, but what kind of ability is it?’
Yuma said that when Hugo looked at him with those eyes, he said, ‘I can feel the wrinkles on my forehead. It’s a wrinkle that can be seen even on demons and dragons’.
“Something tired is attached to you.”
Hugo’s eyes darkened.
“Look at me.”
Jeka shook her head in a cold sweat.
As soon as he faced Hugo’s crimson eyes, Zecca could hear the demon’s voice.
– Run… Run… Please run away!
“Quaaaaagh!”
Jeka’s body turned black in an instant and then came back.
Before long, like a light flickering on and off, Zeka’s body flickered black.
Jeka screamed and screamed and grabbed her head. It looked as if the room would run out of control any minute.
Yuma looked at Zecca while holding the handle of the Ascalon on her waist.
“Kkeuhuh uh uh uh uh!”
As Zecca screamed at the sky, a black aura rushed to his mouth.
Soon, Zecca took the form of holding a black sphere in her mouth. The sphere swayed unsteadily, and it looked as if it would explode anywhere at any moment.
Zecca lowered her head and aimed the sphere at Hugo.
‘Isn’t it similar to Dragon Breath!?’
thud!
Hugo flicked his middle finger and hit Jecca on the forehead. Zecca flew over ten paces without making a squeak.
