Episode 59. Rose Society Purge (4)
While moving to the carriage, Natalie and the party discussed how to raid the Rose Society headquarters.
The reason they chose a carriage rather than a horse was that they were worried that Yuma and Seril’s appearance would be exposed.
“Information that the outbuilding is over will reach the headquarters soon. There are no survivors, but there are still spies from the Rose Society on the garrison side.”
“It is a rotten country as it is rotten.”
“What kind of clean country can there be? Anyway, it means that the traitors will be waiting for us in full bloom.”
The Rose Society headquarters had far more defensive troops and traps than the outbuildings.
The thing to be most careful about was poison.
Ordinary poisons could not harm Yuma, but it was a different story when it came to the devil’s extreme poison.
“There will be no extreme poison in the demon realm. How can backstreet kids like us have something that isn’t even in the imperial castle warehouse?”
“Then you can just hit it to break it. Quickly, before Haseoguk’s garrison dispatches.”
If it was Yuma’s power, that wouldn’t be a problem.
Sheila was the second strongest among the previous lords, so the rest were too much to deal with Yuma.
Natalie didn’t see Yuma fighting Heize. The way he cuts the spire of his sword and activates a storm to tear the limbs of the Imperial Sword.
That was why Natalie was initially worried about the viciousness of the Rose Society.
However, Yuma’s method of purging is swift slaughter. No matter how despicable the Rose Society tried to get revenge, it was useless. Even if you die, you can’t take revenge.
Besides, now Yuma’s status was that of Baron Drake, an imperial aristocrat.
If the rose society messed up with the poor people of the Puang Merchants, Haseo’s national luck could have declined.
“Yeah, looking at it earlier, the previous members would not be your opponents. There are two issues for us to care about.
The dispatch of the garrison and the lives of Dan and Dawn.”
If the garrison was dispatched, Yuma had no choice but to use force in some way.
This could lead to diplomatic disputes.
Of course, Haseo could not properly raise his voice against the Kyle Empire.
However, if the imperial aristocrats killed Haseo’s garrison, and the empire acquiesces to it, the position of imperial nobles in other countries as well as Haseo’s will be narrowed.
because there was no reason.
There was a high probability that Dunn was imprisoned in a prison inside the headquarters.
“When we arrive at the capital, we must prepare a smuggling ship to escape immediately. Even our children who are hiding can ride it.”
After two days, the party arrived at the capital of Haseo. The dawn moon was shining brightly.
Natalie led the group into a bar in a back alley.
As she entered, the owner, the clerk, and the customers all inside the bar fell to one knee. All of them are the Rose Society in disguise.
This was a secret space that Natalie created herself as soon as she climbed to the top. Even within the rose society, not many people knew about this space.
One of the members disguised as a guest approached Natalie.
“Sir. Headquarters is in bad shape. Hakila Jeondaehoeju is in an atmosphere to join hands with the royal family even if it is right now.”
Hakila was the head of the previous members of the Society of Roses.
“Know.”
Natalie explained to him about the purges in the annex and her future plans.
He glanced at Yuma the whole time he was listening. It was only natural that he would be the new boss to be hired along with Natalie in the future.
“Sir. Dunn, you have to give up. Only then can Dan’s brother be saved. According to the information given by the spies from Jeondae Hoju, older brother Dunn is already…
“I’ll take care of it myself.”
A shadow cast over Natalie’s face as never before.
“I will rescue Dan and Dun right now and purge the traitors.
You guys should hold your breath against the stowaway ships in the capital and Kalam.”
“I will be with you Lord!”
“No, if there are too many, it will only increase the commotion. You guys get ready to leave.”
Natalie then disassembled the pipe and assembled it into a key shape. The pipe that became the key was inserted into a small hole in the wall of the bar.
As the secret door slid open, Yuma and Cheryl exclaimed in a low voice. It was an arsenal.
Natalie took various secrets and poisons from her arsenal and hid them in her clothes and boots. There was also a small hand-mounted crossbow and a special weapon made of Selob’s thread.
He also picked out a weapon for Cheryl. It was a poisoned awl and a crossbow.
Cheryl probably wouldn’t have to fight, but it didn’t hurt to bring a weapon for self-defense.
After finishing the weapon installation, Natalie fixed her gaze on a glass bottle the size of a human head. Inside the vial was a glossy black liquid.
“Do you remember Yuma?”
“what?”
“This is liquor made from the cellove poison bag you gave me. Let’s go back and have a drink.”
When Natalie beckoned, the members gathered their drinks and weapons. She ordered the closure of all hideouts and secret areas, including this bar.
“let’s go.”
said Natalie, wearing a black mask. It was a mask that had been specially treated to block poison in the form of smoke.
Cheryl also put on the mask Natalie gave her. But Yuma didn’t need it.
It was early morning, but the party chose the underpass instead of the roadside.
The underpass of the capital of Haseo was indeed a maze. But for Natalie, the path was as clear as the palm of her hand.
“If you go up there, you will see the outer wall of the headquarters. You’re making a fuss over there. In the meantime, I’ll check the prison and join you.”
Yuma nodded. It was a basic diversionary operation, but it seemed to be the most effective method.
The party split in two in the underpass. Natalie was going to go deeper into the underpass and climb right up to the prison cell.
Yuma came to the surface first, as Natalie had told her.
As soon as I came out of the drain, I immediately saw the thick outer wall of the Rose Society headquarters. There were no defensive troops on this side.
“Cheryl.”
“yes.”
“During my fight, even if arrows or daggers fly at you, don’t dodge and stay still. Because it’s much easier to protect them.”
“all right.”
As soon as Cheryl could answer, Yuma fired two aura spheres at the outer wall of the headquarters.
Kwak Kwa Kwak! The sound of thick bricks exploding spread. However, the outer wall was not completely penetrated.
Yuma shoved Ascalon through the crack, causing an aura explosion.
Then, one side of the outer wall collapsed and a hole that could fit five people was opened.
Feeling the commotion, the members hurriedly started running toward Yuma.
But Yuma had no intention of waiting for them to arrive.
He slung Cheryl over his shoulder and quickly moved into the headquarters.
As soon as some of the punks ran into Yuma, their heads fell and they rolled across the floor.
‘It’s a commotion.’
How much fuss is appropriate?
Yuma pondered for about two seconds before coming to a conclusion.
Breaking and slashing everything in sight. It was just right.
Rather than slaughtering the small ones, it was easier to deal with making all the former members jump out.
Ascalon had a blue aura. Yuma put Cheryl down and hurriedly moved on.
One of the members who tried to call out the intruder passed away without being able to finish his words.
It was because Yuma’s huge Aura Blade cut his throat and flew towards the central building of the headquarters.
rumble!
The pillars at the entrance to the central building shattered and there was a roar.
Cheryl clucked her tongue at Yuma’s strength and followed him. Yuma moved slowly to keep Cheryl from falling behind.
“What! Bring your brothers!”
no need to talk Yuma planned to burn the rose society headquarters to ashes and open a soup.
Yuma continued to scatter heavy arched aura blades everywhere.
Every time the Aura Blade landed, trees for landscaping were cut down and deep valleys were dug in the ground.
From the perspective of the members of the Rose Society watching this, it was no different from the descent of the God of Destruction.
Shoot Aaaaaa!
Just then, a shell flew towards Yuma.
‘What kind of thugs have something like that?’
It was a magic cannonball fired by a siege magic bomber.
“Suck!”
Yuma swung the Ascalon from the bottom up, split the shell in half, and confirmed the firing position. It was on the third floor of the headquarters building.
A total of six magic bombers were aimed at Yuma.
“I didn’t think of this.”
Natalie also didn’t mention that there was a magic bomber at the headquarters. It seemed that the former lords had received it from the royal castle in preparation for a full-scale rebellion.
Of course, the previous members did not expect that Yuma would participate in the Rose Society’s internal struggle.
If only Natalie and her followers had been counted, the magic bombardment would have worked quite effectively.
But not for Yuma.
It was not easy to aim precisely at such a slow and heavy object, and it did not pose a great threat to Yuma.
If the magic bomber had been able to do something about a superhuman, the empire would have already conquered the world.
A straight aura blade.
Yuma chose it as a technique to neutralize the magic bomber. It was a technique inspired by the dead Heize.
The destructive power of the straight Aura Blade that Heize flew from the top of the spire was a threat to Yuma as well.
Yuma pulled Ascalon backwards and took a thrusting stance.
Soon, a sharp piercing sound rang out, and a ray of light extended toward the magic gunner in the center.
The aurablaird, like a flash, shattered one magic shell like tofu and smashed the gunner’s cradle.
A heavy artillery plane fell from the third floor and destroyed the sunshade on the first floor of the headquarters.
It was great for the first time I used it.
The decisive battle with Heize left a lot to Yuma.
Yuma then destroyed two magic artillery launchers.
Then, the magic bombardment fell.
All I realized was that it was useless.
‘But it’s strange… Why don’t the members of the previous generation come out?’
At that time, a group approached Yuma, raising a brightly shining sword aura. Yuma weighed their skills and stood close to Seril.
The group consisted of 12 swordsmen from the Rose Society.
There were three sword masters, and the rest were all at the end of the sword expert. I could tell just by looking at the concentration of the aura.
As they drew closer, smoke began to rise.
It was solo smoke. They, like Cheryl, were wearing special masks.
Yuma raised a sword wind to clear the smoke before it spread further.
However, the smoke wasn’t only spreading around the swordsmen.
As soon as the Rose Society confirmed Yuma’s powerlessness, it judged it to be an emergency of the highest level and started responding appropriately.
Dense poison clouds began to rise from here and there inside the headquarters.
It was nonsense.
Even a small amount of the human world’s strongest poison, ‘death’, was of no use to Yuma. This mass poisoning had no choice but to be far less lethal than death.
It wasn’t poison to Yuma, it was just stale air.
“Thank you.”
Yuma smiled, not caring. A poisonous cloud of this size could provide an excuse for harming the garrison that would come later. The cloud began to rise.

It’s not me, it’s the poison.
