Episode 553. Who are you allowed to do business with?
(1)
Near the eastern border of Kelia.
There was an up-and-coming businessman in a tourist town there.
No, I should say that there is a man who is a businessman on the outside.
Before the founding of Kelly.
Before the present unified elven city existed.
There was an elf from a small forest village where they used to live.
As if the elf had predicted the founding of Kelia, he ran across to the spot where the tourist city would be built, and started business there.
Finally, by succeeding in business and making quite a bit of money, he gained a position that even the lord of the place could not carelessly touch.
Truly a solid success story.
The problem was the content of the business.
On the surface, he looks like a great businessman, but in reality he is not.
The business was only things that could not be revealed in front of others.
The problem is that it was a business that could never be honored, such as drug cultivation and human trafficking.
If he continues to grow his family like this, it will not be to the extent that he is territorial within the city.
He might become a giant who will control the entire underworld of Kellya.
That’s why I started keeping an eye on him at the tribal meeting in Kelia, who recently came across information about him.
Right now, I’m watching him to catch his tail, but I recognize him as an existence that needs to be burned by the root for stability sooner or later.
One way or another, it is certain that his existence will become the seed of conflict.
He was such a troublesome man.
“Aaaaaaaaaaagh!”
The underworld tycoon now rolls across the filthy sink, shuffling across the floor screaming unsightly.
“It’s dark… … Oh, this child… …
Elkezen, the elf coughing out a painful cough, looked up at the man who dared to muddy himself with hatred, and wondered if it should be called him.
The man who stood firm on his two feet by Elkesen’s bedside… … .
No matter how you look at it, it’s a penguin.
Fluffy fluffy.
An assailant dressed as a fat penguin that could feel the touch of a hug.
To be honest, I doubted my eyes at first.
Suddenly puffy! I heard the walls ringing.
“It’s a penguin, it’s a penguin!”
Isn’t that the guy wearing the penguin suit who appeared while saying the same incomprehensible thing blows himself up?
“… … I’ve heard about that penguin suit. I hope you are!”
It was the moment when Elkezen, gnashing his teeth, realized the identity of the assailant and was about to mention his name.
“Oops, I can’t say that.”
Before he can speak, the toe of his penguin suit hits his chin.
Shocked, he chews his tongue and has no choice but to force his head upward.
“I’m disguising myself so you don’t recognize me, but will you use my name if I tell you?”
Inside the penguin’s clothes, a heavy voice could be heard because of the thick doll’s clothes.
“I have no manners. When you cover your face like this, pretending not to know your identity even if you know it is at least the standard moral in this industry.”
“… … Damn it.”
Elkesen shuddered and gnashed his teeth at the nonsense of the penguin suit and shook his shoulders.
Looking at him like that, the penguin suit only pretends to flap its wings, which look uncomfortable.
And what you don’t like is
“Sheesh!”
He clicks his tongue and turns his head around.
He probably wanted to do something different, but it seems that it didn’t go well.
From the inside of the penguin’s suit, a grumbling voice could be heard faintly, “The last one said it didn’t look like a penguin, so the arms were thicker and shorter, but it’s more uncomfortable.”
“It’s done. Well, it looks like you’re going to say, ‘You know who I am!’, so you’re just bringing up business, Mr. ‘Business Partner’?”
“Kuh..”
It seemed that he had no intention of pretending not to know and pretending to be innocent.
After all, it would be pointless to try to capture the attacker now that he knew the identity of the attacker.
The penguin suit moved its head as if thinking so.
The movement was light, but the voice that came out was terrifyingly cold.
“After hearing from the drunken queen, she seems to have eaten quite a bit. I’m playing a boss in the dark. Aren’t you too old for your age?”
“Are you in a position to say something like that?”
“huh? what am i?”
The penguin suit tilted its body on purpose.
“Am I a penguin? He’s just an eccentric in a penguin suit that’s nothing?”
The attitude of blatantly raising drugs is so nasty that it scratches people’s stomachs.
Knowing that it was intentional, but being in the position of being victimized, it was truly heartbreaking.
“Do you think this will stop us? Even at this time, our colleagues are all over the world.”
“know. That’s why at least we’re trying to get rid of weeds. what a long story I’m sure there are plenty of guys like you, and it would be a waste of time to wait. So, when the penguin clothes lifted the right wing up, the sharp blade of Aura formed on the wing.
“For now, pay for what you did.”
In response to his sentencing, Elkesen jumped at him as if he were rebelling, but the result was nothing to see.
The sword strike from the penguin’s suit cut him in half and burned him in an instant, leaving no trace.
It was the moment when Kelly’s trouble disappeared overnight.
At times like this, I suddenly think of which one is more frustrating, a whole body jjoljjol or a 100% pure cotton wad.
Well, it’s clear that both of them are the same, no matter what.
I don’t even want to feel it myself.
“Whoa! This is not a matter of sleeping in the heat or not.”
It’s strangely refreshing to take off the doll’s hair.
Even if the temperature is controlled with magic, there is no way to do anything about the stuffiness peculiar to the fundamental doll clothes.
The biggest problem is that the penguin suit No. 2 I’m wearing right now is not a suit that a normal person can wear and fight.
“People around me looked at it strangely, so I tried to make it more like a penguin… …
I made it more plump and decorated it more like a doll.
But the discomfort multiplied.
Even I think this is not much.
[Before that, I don’t know why you are obsessed with that… … 』
“… … Even if you don’t understand sometimes, there is a corner that you can’t concede to a professional. Craftsmanship.”
[Zhang Yingzheng must be God.]
“Noisy.”
It’s a matter of self-esteem.
I’m not going to give up until people see this and say it’s cute.
“And you can’t show your face.”
Well, it was to prepare for any witnesses who might have seen me.
… … I think there probably isn’t.
None of those who saw this penguin suit survived.
It’s limited to the wicked.
[By the way, did you kill him?]
“No, I didn’t kill him. I just sent you to a place where you can’t come back.”
I killed half of it, but I didn’t finish it.
I just dropped it to where I had blown Lumie before.
I looked around the room again.
This was the office of an elf named Elkezen.
There was no need to hide it, that Elkezen was a reincarnated person like us.
As a reincarnated person, he seemed to have been acting as the boss of the underworld under the shadow of Kelia, following Herial’s orders.
It seems that he has done quite absurd things, such as dealing drugs and selling his own people.
“Before that, did you really not know that this kind of guy was installed under the water?”
It was still in the early stages of the establishment of the kingdom, so it was unavoidable that there were many gaps.
Isn’t that too much though?
I argued with Cressel as if I was half-blaming.
It’s really useless, kid.
[I couldn’t help it, bro. Originally, Kelia’s political structure was not unified. Because of that, there were still many gaps.]
Before the establishment of the unified kingdom, it must mean that there were many places to hide because the tribes took a half-roaring system.
Well, that’s why the black magicians of the past have been hiding.
Anyway, it was fortunate that I was able to notice the existence and deal with it even now.
[By the way, surprisingly. I hope the older brother comes forward himself. I thought it would be bothersome, so I wouldn’t come out. thank you very much! Hahahaha!]
See how this guy is saying that he’s already been killed.
“There is a law of loyalty. And just in case, wouldn’t it be better for someone who can handle it as reliably as possible to step forward?”
Actually, I wanted to send Shen, but now Shen sent a dispatch to the Merman Empire.
It’s probably time to deal with the reincarnated parasite there.
“What are you talking about if it’s not us and you can’t even handle it?”
It would have been quite a hassle if we had tried to deal with him within Kelia.
If I had to question the way I did it, I would have just pushed in with force.
Dress up in a penguin costume and break down the wall to make a surprise appearance!
I grabbed the reincarnated elf by the collar and threw it with all my might.
The lawyer was also moved and cried, and was executed after a summary trial.
This is muscle-style punishment.
If he wasn’t a reincarnated person, I wouldn’t have bothered to do this.
“Anyway, can you cover the next day?”
[Thanks to the brother who finished it quickly, there will be quite a bit of evidence left here. I told Hetia to send personnel as soon as dawn breaks, so I guess I can explain it well.]
Well, when Queen Hetia heard of the reckless raid plan to deal with him, far from stopping him, she was rather glad.
“… … I feel like I’ve been working for free for some reason.”
[Shouldn’t we help each other and live? Don’t be too upset. If you need anything later, Hetia will help as well.]
“… … Are you still clinging to Hetia?”
This skeleton is saying that it is not his fault.
It’s embarrassing to end things like this for free, so should I ask for something moderately necessary in return?
Just in case there was something I needed help with at the upper house.
“by the way… … these guys this On purpose.”
I murmured as I remembered the partner I had just gotten rid of.
“… … No matter how I look at it, I don’t feel like I’ve been caught.”
Recently, traces of a partner showing disquieting movements have begun to appear too often.
It has been going on since the last time Ernesia’s magic tower was decided.
The problem is rather that this was caught by the wrong behavior.
The catch is that from a certain moment on, I get the feeling that they are moving in such a way that it doesn’t matter if they get caught.
These guys are a loser.
Cressel also agreed with my discomfort.
[…] … Hey, I understand how you feel. But if you don’t catch it, wouldn’t that be a problem?]
“Yes.”
If you leave it alone because it is annoying to catch pests, it will eventually ruin farming.
… … I know that, but I will install it.
And even if it’s extermination of pests, the work I’m doing now is only done in friendly countries where my influence extends, such as Kelly or the Merman Empire, or in the country that is preying on them.
As for the other kingdoms, I haven’t touched them unless I’ve been too lax.
It’s because they’re really determined and are hiding, so I’ll be annoyed if I forcefully move.
I don’t want to be caught by the tail.
[By the way, bro? Are the preparations for the meeting okay? I think I heard it last time.]
“Oh, that?”
What Cressel is asking is about the meeting that a group claiming to be the ‘Caduceus Principality’ has declared to hold within the Felsen Kingdom.
I politely sent an invitation to Ernesia Kingdom.
Are you coming or not?
In the end, I know that I have decided to go because I have already said it once.
