Episode 200
Episode 74. The first subordinates saved from the east (2)
“I will do that!”
“Good good. It should be.”
Helloton’s face turned white as she wondered what kind of person she had become involved with. In his homeland, Nabalu, he had never seen an unmanned man of this level.
‘I subdued an escort who was close to twenty in an instant with my bare hands. Besides, they must have taken care of all the assassins I sent. What the hell is this monster!’
At least the opponent didn’t seem to kill him right away because he was the head of Puals.
If he was an ordinary aristocrat or a human without much background, he would have been killed with a single knife.
Outside, the servants were restlessly staring at the carriage.
The situation was too unrealistic for Nabalu’s greatest power to take place in the mansion of Hellorn, the ruler of Hajim.
However, Hajim’s ruler was great only to them, but to Yuma, he was no less than Kyle’s small and medium-sized aristocrat.
In fact, even if it was Kyle’s small and medium-sized nobles, he would have surpassed the Puals family with pure force.
“Is there anything else you want? What can I do for you… “There’s nothing you need from me. Only the assassins you sent. The dogs have decided to come under me starting today, so release their families.”
“Are you talking about Shu Shurian and the warriors?”
“Yes.”
Hellorn nodded that he would listen too. Yuma thought for a moment about what more he could ask of this vile old man before opening his mouth.
“Do you know anything about the relationship between you and Emperor Rugal?”
Even if it was a weak country, anyway, if the power of a country was the head of state, he seemed to know that much information. Lung was a person who continued to care about even after he ruined it.
It was because the one who was protecting the pig was none other than Cherkin, the first swordsman of Haseo.
Besides, Shurian also said that there was a rumor that Lugal was looking after Lung.
“Long Doge… cool! cool power! I heard that you are making a deal with Emperor Rugal. He is a human with too many abilities compared to his abilities. “You are the same to me.
There are many bugs in the world who have useless things compared to their abilities. Those guys usually have a lot of greed.
Then, if you meet someone like me, you will be chased like this.”
When Yuma coldly shot at him, Hello Ton averted his eyes and cleared his throat. “That’s right. Anyway, Lung once said something like that while drinking with me. He said there was Emperor Rugal behind him… Emperor Rugal, the slave trader, suggested it first.”
What kind of ghosts are you talking about?
How could a ruler who owns all of this vast eastern land set aside such back alley pigs to work in the slave trade?
Besides, isn’t slavery forbidden in the East? If Rugal felt the need for slavery, wouldn’t it be enough to issue a new law in the East? Why is it necessary to use such a dark method?
Yuma raised his eyebrows upon hearing the unexpected information.
“what? You said Rugal made the offer first?”
“Yes, of course he said so.”
“Isn’t it bluffing? Why does the ruler of the East have to trade slaves for something like that?”
“I don’t even know that far. But he certainly said so. The Lung I watched was more careless and arrogant than braggart.”
That’s what Yuma saw as well.
Lung was not the type to brag. They were the kind of people who fret because they can’t boast about what they have.
“You seem to have a lot of interest in slaves in the East, so can I add a few more words?”
Even in an emergency situation, Hellorn figured out what the other person wanted.
In any case, whether in the East or the West, the nobility had to know how to roll their hair.
“Tell me. Listen and decide whether or not to pull out another of your teeth.”
“…that is. Slavery began to become popular in the East in less than two years.”
“For that matter, there were slavers everywhere.”
“It’s because of Ye Lung Doge. It was Lung Doge who popularized the commodity of slavery in the East. Some nobles and wealthy people in the East even call him the Slave King.”
While doing so, Hellorn remembered what the source said a while ago, who ran like the wind and then disappeared like a candle. A mysterious man
attacked Rung Doge and destroyed the castle .
“The slave king. He gives the title of king even to a beggar.”
“It is not an exaggeration to say that all the slaves spread throughout the Eastern land came through Rung Doge. I was being supplied by him too.”
“I didn’t see him being that great.”
“My sources in Ajif’s Light say that the Kantra Navy directly obtains slaves and sends them to Lung.”
“The Navy directly?”
“yes. Why would I lie? If you still keep Lung Doge alive… In the future, there may be more assassins on your journey. Hurry up and hide…
“Haha, I guess I know you’re in a position to worry about me. Take care of your teeth.”
“sorry.”
Lung Doge’s influence far exceeded Yuma’s imagination.
Rugal, the emperor of the East, and Rung Doge, a slave trader.
Yuma couldn’t understand how the contact had happened between the two and why Rugal was helping Lung’s slave trade.
‘Why the hell? Why are you doing that? It is said that there is not much exchange between the East and the West, but at this level, there is a chance that the story will circulate. I had never heard of such a thing before the return.’
Yuma was overcome with a sense of incongruity and pondered what to do with Hellorn.
Even if he messed around like this, he probably wouldn’t be able to send a chase party.
Even if I sent him, there would be no or only one high-ranking sword master in Nabalu, but he couldn’t catch Yuma that much.
‘If I keep it alive, I think I’ll have something to write about someday. I think I’ll get tired if I kill him.’
However, he was the kind of person whose loyalty could not be expected.
Yuma immediately picked up a safety device that would prevent Hellorn from stabbing him in the back, and dragged him out of the carriage.
It was embarrassing to leave Ballinan and Cog behind.
So Yuma sat down at the garden table where Hellorn was drinking tea and held out a glass to Hellorn. It was to wait for Shurian.
Hellorn politely grabbed the teapot with both hands and filled Yuma’s cup. The teapot continued to rattle as I poured, my hands shaking in terror.
Except for the fact that blood was dripping from Hellorn’s bare gums, the two seemed to be drinking tea together.
“You drink good tea. You live in a nice house, have many servants, and are full of people who envy you. A guy like that is making a fuss like that to get a few more artifacts?”
“Yes…
“Please send the bill to the Povian family for the 20 gold bars as scheduled.”
After the promised 30 minutes passed, Shurian entered the mansion. He approached Yuma and bowed his head respectfully.
Of course, it was Yuma, not Hellorn.
“Have you come?”
Even when Shurian saw the bizarre sight, he wasn’t too taken aback. Only then did the servants take care of the broken escorts around them.
Yuma immediately dragged Helloton around the mansion to free Shurian and the warriors’ families. They were confined like cattle in a specially made room.
I saw people with marks on their bodies, as if some had been roughed up. As soon as Shurian saw his family, he hugged them and wept loudly.
Seeing that, Yuma was heartbroken and pulled out one of the front teeth of Hellorn next to him.
“Even though I made you a slave, you said you would make me comfortable! Hello Ron!”
Shurian, who had shed hot tears for a long time, suddenly opened her eyes sharply and walked towards Hellorn.
“Ah! I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
“Is that the attitude of a sorry person?
You son of a bitch! They pampered us like that!”
Throng. Shurian fired his sword and put the sword to Hellorn’s throat.
“Hey!”
Yuma didn’t say anything and decided to watch him for a while.
And Shurian did not disappoint Yuma. He remembered that Yuma hadn’t said it was okay to kill Hellorn, even in the midst of his rage that made his whole body tremble.
Shurian’s sword went back into the scabbard.
“…sorry. I couldn’t control my emotions and behaved insolently in front of my lord.”
“No, Shurian. Even if he cut it, he wouldn’t have been greatly criticized. Take your family to the garden and wait.”
“yes!”
Then, Yuma took Shurian to the slave room where Santi was.
When I opened the door, Santi was flinching in a corner of the room, exhausted.
There were quite a few slaves in the room who had a grudge against Santi. Most of them were brought here through Lung and Achi Santi.
The slaves beat Mormae as soon as Santi entered. However, even though Santi lived as a miser, he was a very strong person and endured the beating.
Seeing Yuma, Santi groaned and barely got up.
“Ha ha ha… I knew you would end up like this in Helloron…
Santi also had a few teeth knocked out while being blinded. He smiled at Hellorn, showing black gums.
“Santi.”
“Yes… in person.”
“You meet me while piracy, you meet me while working as a slave trader, and now you meet me as a slave.”
“haha. Yes, Daein….
Daein and I have a strangely tough corner. If the great man had not come this time, I would have died. Khehehe Kahak!”
A handful of red blood poured from Santi’s mouth.
Santi seemed to have learned quite a bit during the life and death of being beaten. Yuma somehow felt attached to Santi.
This, too, was fate and destiny.
If Hellorn hadn’t coveted the artifact, Yuma would have left without saving Santi.
“You are a lucky guy.”
“I think so too.”
“I will release you. When you get out of here, carry out my orders with the people I will introduce you to.”
“It’s an honor…
Yuma released Santi’s handcuffs and also released the handcuffs of the other slaves.
The slaves were embarrassed by the sudden situation, but they could not hide their joy on their faces.
Whatever it was, it was released.
“Those of you who have no place to return, go to Mus Icahn.
If you tell the village chief that the contractor has sent it, he will collect it.”
Yuma said that and sent Santi to Shurian. He then introduced the two of them and told them to prepare to leave.
Preparing to leave meant taking as much of Helorn’s warehouse as you could.
In the future, he would need a lot of money to support his family and carry out the orders Yuma would give him.
Now, there was one last step before leaving the Hellorn mansion.
He had to come up with a way to prevent Hellorn from stabbing him in the back.
Yuma grabbed Hellorn and searched the mansion room by room.
“Oh father!”
A man in the second room screamed at Hellorn.
Yuma immediately hit him in the pit of the stomach, knocking him out, and then wrapped it around his shoulder.
“What are you going to do with that child?”
“You choose, Heloron. Shall I let Shurian decapitate you or let him keep your son? Just like you did to Shurian.”
Hellorn didn’t answer, so Yuma clicked her tongue and came out and handed her son over to Shurian.
Until today, Helloton, who used Shurian and the warriors’ families as hostages and managed them, was suddenly retaliated in the same way.
“The moment you act nonsense, your son’s life will be lost. Take Shurian Iza as a hostage. By the way, hostages do not lose their value only when they are in good health. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Yes, I understand.”
When everything was ready, Yuma left the mansion with Santi and Shurian’s family.
