The great mage who transcends by regression Episode 191
Malien’s 3 major underworld guilds.
Finally, the meeting of these three notorious guilds, which seldom get together, was concluded.
The organizer is Bacchus, the guild leader of Placebo, one of the same three guilds.
He succeeded in getting the other two to the meeting in exchange for an unconventional offer.
A position created by giving up a considerable share.
“…I don’t know what the hell Bacchus wants.”
A middle-aged man grumbled, placing his feet casually on a huge table.
“Aren’t you curious what the hell is going on with that greedy bastard giving up my stake?”
“Don’t you know?”
The two are the guild leaders of ‘Black Tiger’ and ‘Red Orc’, respectively.
They waited for Bacchus to come, with doubtful expressions on their faces.
“It’s good that I got a decent slave after a damn long time.”
“Did you say twelve?”
“Hehe, what is it? In any case, it is best for a slave to be as young as possible. The feeling is very… ….”
The two guild leaders share low-level stories while giggling with mean smiles.
It was a conversation about a topic that would never be forgiven, but the two didn’t seem to care at all.
If there was even a hint of morality in the first place, there was no way they could run a guild like this.
After talking like that for a while, the Red Orc guild leader asked.
“So, what about the supply on your side? I think we’ll have to refill it because about four of them have become corpses this time… ….”
“We are similar. But what does it matter? Not one or two drug-soaked idiots, just bring any of them and throw them into the mine.”
“Well, yes.”
After all, isn’t this city overflowing with helpless slaves?
I really want to be a good city.
It’s easy to make good slaves and you won’t be punished no matter what you do with them.
Because it’s really the best.
It was a time when the two of them giggled for a long time while talking about such things.
“Ah, everyone has gathered.”
The door opened and Bacchus entered.
The two turned their heads and frowned.
“You are late. Aren’t you the host?”
“Oh well that’s it.”
After saying that, Bacchus sat across from him casually.
‘what?’
The two guild leaders felt something strange about Bacchus’ appearance.
What should I say?
different from usual
“you….”
“Has it been great so far?”
Bacchus asked, resting his chin on one hand before the two of them could say anything.
Suspiciously cold aura.
Unknowingly feeling goosebumps, the guild leader of ‘Black Tiger’ shouted as if writing a curse.
“What bullshit! Stop measuring like an idiot and tell me your business. We have come this far because of the conditions you put forward… ….”
“It would have been nice. I would have lived as I wanted to, sucking the blood of innocent people. There would be no fear of being judged, and it would be like your world.”
“This bastard…!”
Hearing it makes no sense.
The guild leader of ‘Red Orc’ got up and tried to run at Bacchus.
But at that moment.
“sit down.”
As soon as Bacchus’ mouth opened, his legs snapped.
“Quaaaaaagh!”
“…?!”
The guild leader of ‘Black Tiger’ couldn’t help but be astonished.
He had never heard that Bacchus had such power.
‘Did he hide his power?’
I couldn’t understand how the hell Bacchus had just broken that guy’s leg.
Magic? Or come?
He doesn’t have enough knowledge to tell them apart.
But one thing is clear.
If Bacchus puts his mind to it, it’s not even a matter of erasing them from this spot.
‘It was a fucking trap!’
I should have recognized you from the time you unnecessarily called for good conditions.
“The shitty bastards always notice the shitty environment like ghosts and run rampant. What are we going to do?”
Bacchus, not paying attention to the man who had broken his leg, got up from his chair and headed for the window.
The city of Malien was visible through the window.
Citizens who are drug-infested and are casually rolling around in the alleys.
Looking at his back, the guild leader of ‘Black Tiger’ desperately shook his head.
‘Okay. I have a chance.’
Of course, he did not come alone. And that’s also the case with the guild leader of the ‘Red Orc’, who is now lying around.
He secretly activated the communicator hidden in his bosom.
Since it is connected to my subordinate, a response will come immediately.
No matter how bad he is, he won’t be able to beat the side!
‘Okay, if you do… …!’
He thought so and waited.
With the expectation that my men stationed nearby would come.
but.
‘What is it?’
no one comes
Even after a while, not a single one of his subordinates came.
Come to think of it, Bacchus came quite late.
Then a voice was heard.
“Why do you think your subordinates won’t come?”
“What is it? what is that… …Aww!”
As soon as he finished speaking, his finger pressing the communicator was crushed.
An indescribable agony fills my head.
“Of course not. I had it all sorted out before I came here.”
“Why are you doing this…!”
Grinning in pain, he screamed desperately.
“Okay.”
Bacchus turned around.
then that moment.
“…uh?”
The appearance of the existence that I thought was Bacchus begins to change.
The messy beard is tidied up and the eyes are red.
“I think I have a lot to hear from you two from now on. Do you guys think so too?”
“You can’t stand…!”
He backed away with a pale complexion and ran desperately toward the door.
but it doesn’t open
bang! bang!
“Damn the rain!”
No matter how hard he tried, the door remained immovable.
He stared at the man approaching him with his pupils quivering madly.
“Oh don’t come….”
“If you were planning to shed bloody tears in the eyes of others, you should have been prepared for tears of blood in your own eyes as well.”
A languid voice.
However, he knew right away that the ‘laziness’ was to hide his deep murderous intent.
“iced coffee…buy it… ….”
“shut up.”
Hands grabbed his head.
Red eyes, filled with the intent to kill, stare at him.
“Uh ah….”
“You don’t have the right to decide.”
At those words, the guild leader’s eyes were filled with despair.
because it was intuitive.
That the opponent had no intention of killing them gracefully, let alone keeping them alive.
and for a while.
There was a constant scream in the room.
* * *
[Mikhail.]
As soon as I came out of the room after work, Set called me cautiously.
[…] …Are you okay?]
“It’s okay.”
It’s nothing.
Of course, I know why Set is worried about me.
Maybe it’s because of the way I looked this time.
It must have been a little different from usual.
[I think the action you took was reasonable. I see them… …Rehabilitation was impossible.]
“It must have been.”
They were aware that their actions had something to do with the devil.
I knew and did this.
They even planned to become part of the devil’s family in the near future.
There is no mercy shown to those who voluntarily defect.
“You can rest assured, Set.”
[Yeah, that would be it. but….]
Set opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
But I seemed to know.
She doesn’t know that I have relapsed.
However, as long as they were together, they might have intuited something.
Even if it wasn’t the fact that he had returned, he had a secret that he couldn’t tell me.
what can i say someday
Then it might be a little more comfortable.
I don’t know when that time will be… ….
It won’t be too far.
* * *
“…thank you.”
The members of the council who were rescued from the anti-lifestone mines bowed their heads to me while stumbling around.
Rescuing the different races in the mine was not difficult.
Because in the first place, there was a ‘mirage’ for me.
Pretend to be them, infiltrate the mine, save them, and that’s it.
It didn’t even take a lot of planning.
It could be said that it was thanks to the fact that the two had a solid position in the guild.
Whatever.
“What are you going to do now?”
“Now that we’ve saved the imprisoned victims, there’s no need to hesitate.”
I answered Lian’s words and looked around at the members gathered in one place.
Everyone showed signs of being tired, but none of them gave up.
‘Did they drive all those who fought against them into the mine?’
If they wanted to bury the truth of that day, it would have been better to kill them all that day and destroy the evidence.
There must have been an overflow of different races to use as ‘fertilizer’ for them anyway.
But it didn’t.
They chose to harass the mines with risk factors.
Arrogant.
Clearly, they must have judged that there would be no variables.
There would be no existence to infiltrate the mine and save them.
The monarch who orchestrated all of this.
Even though I was there, I didn’t even care about the ‘Hero’.
‘Thank you bastard.’
Yes, I think that arrogance will make this job a lot easier.
I stood in front of the rescued lawmakers.
“As you may have heard roughly, Malien is in a very bad state right now. The reason is simple. Because the agenda passed that day should not have been passed.”
“….”
Everyone had their heads bowed with an expression of disrespect.
As if he had no confidence to see Malien’s miserable appearance.
Not all of the members survived.
The lawmakers present here are barely over thirty.
Some could not survive the work as ‘fertilizer’ in the mines, and others were assassinated before that.
Thirty is left.
“It is not your fault. But you still have a duty to stand up and fight for peace in this city once again.”
“It turned out like this…Do you mean us too?”
“Yes that’s right.”
I faced them face to face one by one.
I saw this city in them.
I saw the flames of the citizens who live as if they were dead, but still burn deep in their hearts.
“Because you guys were the last to represent this city.”
“…!”
“As a warrior, I can defeat the demons that are in the dark in this city. But you are the only one who can breathe life into this city and give its citizens hope again.”
The history they have accumulated can turn everything around again.
What I’m going to do is clear.
We will seek out and purify the demons that have made the city this way.
But other issues should be solved by someone other than me.
“Then what we must do now is….”
“Yes, I will set up a place with His Majesty the Emperor. The rest is up to you.”
I’m going to find that damn arrogant demon from now on.
I looked at them and asked.
“Can you?”
“I’ll do it!”
Everyone shouted in unison.
There is no hesitation in answering that.
“great.”
Then it’s time to move.
* * *
Icarus felt uncomfortable.
Something is strange.
‘Why haven’t I heard from him.’
He must have said he would keep the deadline. He was afraid of losing, so of course he thought he would somehow meet the deadline.
However, even when the promised date arrives, there is no call.
‘Damn it.’
If you do not meet the schedule, you will be reprimanded by him.
His face was horribly contorted.
I will go to that lowly bastard immediately and punish him severely.
He headed straight for the mines.
Because his reaction was felt there.
However, upon arriving at the mine, he encountered an unexpected sight.
“What is this….”
It was empty.
There is nothing left in the mine that should have been full of ‘fertilizer’.
‘Could it be that he betrayed me!’
Icarus looked around urgently.
Fortunately, the anti-life stone is still there.
Anything left… ….
But then.
“You must be pretty upset?”
A voice came from the darkness.
Icarus’ movement stopped.
He slowly turned his head in the direction of the voice.
Two bright red eyes were clearly burning in the dark.
“You you….”
“Nice to meet you, devil.”
He defined Icarus as a ‘devil’ without hesitation.
Icarus instinctively realized what the existence in front of him was.
“Yo warrior…!”
“I know you well.”
Hero Mikhail let out a cold smile.
“Then you have a rough idea of what will happen from now on?”
“…!”
An irresistible presence.
Icarus bit his lip.
