These two exuded an unusual prayer
from the military .
One was a well-built officer who seemed to have benefited from the uniform packet. If I didn’t have a clothing packet, I would have had to make my own clothes that fit that big body.
The one who walked down half a step ahead of him was a tall officer with an upright posture. Even as I descended the stairs, my upper body didn’t shake at all.
What is unusual is that the officer’s uniform he is wearing is different from the ordinary one, and is a luxurious dark blue color. Instead of medals, two twinkling stars were placed on the chest.
As if that were enough to explain himself.
In fact, it was.
“The Great Wall…”
Those who destroyed the emperor.
walking war.
star of the military.
What does the star on the chest mean in the history of a military nation built with blood and iron? It was the time when Kalis, who was intimidated in front of him, instinctively wanted to salute.
“Chung…”
“Wait. I am first.”
Restraining Khalis with one hand, he stood tall and solemnly declared:
“Report. It is Lieutenant General Avon Crimson Wild, who has been appointed as Tantalus’ Vice-Chief of Education and Instructor, concurrently with the investigation of this situation. From this point on, Tantalus is managed by the main building.”
formal report.
But words have weight. as much authority as he has.
He had only spoken, and it seemed that this Tantalus had fallen into his grasp. The power he possessed greatly reduced the authority of the military.
While everyone was staring at him intently, a butterfly that reached his side caught Ebon.
“Nyaaa! Aren’t you late!”
Lieutenant General Ebon instructed more maturely and quietly than a butterfly.
“butterfly. Unlike you, we cannot fall lightly. If you are in a place this high, you have to borrow the power of a parachute.”
“what! Because it’s done! Hurry up and give me a tribute!”
“Whoa. The cycle of getting more and more annoying…”
“Nyanya!”
Lieutenant General Ebon sighed, glanced at the officer who followed and ordered.
“colonel. that.”
“yes!”
Called by the rank of colonel, he took out a stick wrapped in paper from a square paper bag. I quickly figured out what it was. It was a magic weed cigarette.
The moment it was half revealed to the world, the butterfly snatched the magic plant like lightning.
As if possessed, the butterfly cut the paper with its fingernails, stuck its nose into the stick, and began sniffing. As if he was over-breathing, he was fast and hurried.
After sucking in the scent for a while, the butterfly smiled ecstatically.
“Nyahak! Nahya-. what-.”
Pupils are open. The butterfly wandered about with a moan that melted between its teeth.
A magic herb cigar made only for the king of cats wrapped in catnip and the leaves of the world tree.
It was a tribute to the symbol of the cat, human technology, and the spirit of the world tree, and at the same time… it was also a way to rule the king of cats.
“Nya hot hig nya ha-.”
Saliva flowed from the butterfly’s mouth. The lithe body twisted around. The butterfly trembled all over and indulged in the scent like mad.
Lieutenant General Ebon asked.
“Are you satisfied, Butterfly?”
He was respectful in words, but there was not even a handful of respect in the eyes of Vice Admiral Ebon looking at the butterfly. I just looked down at the king of cats coldly as if I were looking at a tool.
The butterfly, which had been lounging around all this time, shouted, holding out a magical candle.
“Nya-ha! Boo-wool! Are you going to light a fire!”
“Didn’t I tell you about the butterfly? This is a contract. If I offer you an offering, you must catch the rat. Isn’t that a contract?”
“what! therefore! speak quickly! What is Nya supposed to do?”
“Wait a moment. They will come soon.”
It was when he murmured.
A strong wind blew and at the same time a regressor ran through the air and landed at the end of the hallway. It was when she shouted with a serious expression.
“Something fell on the roof a moment ago…!”
The words of the regressor could not be followed.
It was because the butterfly, which was very hot, rushed at it in an instant.
“Is it you!”
“What?!”
It wasn’t as fast as Aji, but a stealth that seemed to swallow the sound covered the butterfly’s appearance. In the blink of an eye, the butterfly that had approached the regressor raised its forepaw menacingly.
Even in the midst of panic, the regressor responded with a thousand bullets. In line with the opponent, he raised his arms and spread his cherry blossoms. The compressed space spread and pushed each other…
But even so, the butterfly’s momentum did not die. The paws swayed vaguely and the regressor reflexively turned his head. A trickle of blood flowed from her cheek.
cried the regressor.
“The King of Cats!”
“Nya ha! Become a tribute!”
Tung Regressor kicked the butterfly and jumped back. The butterfly lightly stepped on the stair railing and flew towards the regressor.
In an instant, the two disappeared over there. Soon there was a roar that seemed to break the world.
Vice Admiral Ebon clicked his tongue as he looked at where the butterfly had disappeared.
“Tsk. It’s going to break sooner or later… Maybe it’s because I’m wearing a human body. Being broken is like a human being.”
Then, Lieutenant General Ebon turned his attention to me and Khalis, huddled in a corner.
Callis, who was very nervous, saluted only after her eyes returned to her.
“Loyalty. Lieutenant Commander Ebon. It is an honor to meet you.”
“you?”
“I am Lieutenant Colonel Callis Creets who came to Tantalus as a supply monitor and became isolated.”
Lieutenant General Ebon, who narrowed his eyes, sighed as if he had recognized it only then.
“iced coffee. I didn’t recognize him for a while because he wasn’t wearing an officer’s uniform. lieutenant colonel. You were alive.”
“That’s right.”
“I thought I was dead because all four jewels were broken. The lieutenant colonel must have been more competent than I expected.”
Callis’ eyes widened.
“jewel? How can I do that…”
Lieutenant General Ebon smiled kindly as he looked at Kalis.
“You know, what are you asking, Lieutenant Colonel? Isn’t it natural I am the ‘sponsor’.”
It was a fact that Kalis was realizing in her heart.
At this moment, those who will come to the abyss, accompanied by the king of cats… it is because there is only the warrant of creation.
It’s just that I didn’t want to accept it from the point of view of the betrayal of selling information a moment ago.
Fortunately, Lieutenant General Ebon, not noticing Khalis’s betrayal, showed a friendly sign towards Khalis.
“I’ve never met him in person, but I knew about the colonel. Everyone knew what medals the lieutenant colonel had received.”
“It is an honour.”
“I provided the opportunity, but it would have been impossible to achieve it without the ability of the lieutenant colonel. You can be proud enough.”
Callis, who had been on the verge of suicide a moment ago, was bewildered by his attitude. Either that or not, Lieutenant General Ebon smiled at Khalis with a benevolent smile.
“I came here in the name of investigating the events surrounding Tantalus. Now, depending on my report, the lieutenant colonel’s evaluation changes. Of course, as long as I am the ‘supporter’ of the lieutenant colonel, I will of course clear all doubts about the lieutenant colonel.”
“Thank you.”
“It’s only natural for those on the same line. Of course, the mission must be completed before then.”
Words that contain a deep and dark mental world like a sea trench.
The truth slowly emerges.
said the golem.
An investigation team, including generals, is coming to investigate in detail the events surrounding Kalis’ fall into the abyss and the abyss.
But if Kalis did the job successfully and seduced Aji… Who the hell would send Aji to the surface? An investigation team with star generals from the military will come soon?
Simple.
An investigation team with generals. They were the lords of all things.
From the beginning, the Warrant of All Things had planned to push Callis into Tantalus first and then come to Tantalus under the pretext of investigating her.
It’s because a person of the age of general needs a reason to come to this remote area.
And in this case, it’s also easy to deal with the calis. It can be taken out of the abyss and recycled, or it can be buried under the abyss. It will widen your options.
It really was a throwaway from the beginning. Lieutenant Colonel Callis.
In this case, who betrayed first? I think it will be a very interesting speculation.
Vice Admiral Ebon still considered Khalis an ally and said.
“It seems that you didn’t use the escape packet even in a dangerous situation where you were hostile to all the beings of Tantalus. Is it the spirit of non-retirement? Excellent, Lieutenant Colonel.”
“thank you. It’s an honor to know…”
“The courage of the lieutenant colonel called us. We were waiting for the lieutenant colonel to escape with the dog king. However, when the lieutenant colonel did not come out, he took the risk and came to save the colonel himself and complete the mission!”
Of course it’s a lie.
Escape packets are for escaping from this world. When they were alive, they mistakenly thought that the escape packet was not used, and they calmly lied about it. To motivate Kalis who was about to die.
“We’re here, so you don’t have to worry, Lieutenant Colonel. Now you can do your duty. Take us to the dog king right now. Then all the achievements are yours.”
Callis trembled.
An escape packet that tried to kill her. It was just a moment ago that I almost lost my life to it.
However, Lieutenant General Ebon, who claimed to be the sponsor, was calmly telling a lie that the warrant of creation had come for her.
A tone so familiar with lies that it gives goosebumps. Instinctive rejection rises.
but.
‘There’s no way I won’t follow…’
Watching Lieutenant General Ebon smile benevolently, Callis desperately suppressed her trembling body.
‘The opponent is a military star general. At the same time, a member of the secret society Warrant of All Things. Even the king of cats is acting.’
In order to survive at this moment, I had to stick to them again, even if it was pitiful. I obliterated the fact that I was about to die and was blinded by the exploits to be gained, so I had to be loyal to them.
That was a normal bet…
‘Is that right?’
Callis’ troubles deepen and Lieutenant General Ebon’s laughter is about to crack.
The Undead grabbed Khalis by the shoulders and pushed him on the back.
“Why are you so engrossed that you almost died? Come to your senses! Lieutenant Colonel The lieutenant colonel is not dead yet!”
At the words of the Undead, Khalis hurriedly regained consciousness and answered.
“it’s okay. I wouldn’t have accomplished anything alone. On the contrary, I almost died… I have no achievements.”
“I have never wished for such humility. That too is a virtue for people like us.”
Lieutenant General Ebon nodded and stood behind Khalis, looking at the smiling Undead.
“Undead Rash trainee. Am I right?”
“Exactly!”
“Seeing you awake, the lieutenant colonel must have taken care of you.”
“I’m indebted! Because she handed me the leaves of the world tree when I fell!”
Since the person who handed over the world tree leaf was Lieutenant General Ebon, he was not surprised when he heard the word world tree leaf.
Lieutenant General Ebon nodded and said.
“Hmm. It’s good that you’re an immortal who knows manners. As a side note, I still wonder why you were imprisoned in Tantalus.”
“There is a saying that if you go to the Empire, follow the laws of the Empire! If you commit a crime, you should not be punished!”
“No, not necessarily. There are people who think that the laws of the military are their weapons and rely on them to do all sorts of rude things. Those who consider the law to be my friend will not be happy to tear it to death like you did. Sometimes I feel like doing that too.”
Rarely, the Undead frowned. He said it without hiding the displeasure on his face.
“You have a bad hobby of exposing people’s shame! don’t do that If I go back to that time, it’s time I’d rather cover my ears and run away!”
Lieutenant General Ebon, whose golden eyes widened at the unexpected reaction, soon apologized obediently.
“I’m sorry, student. I just wanted to state my position. Anyway, aren’t you a good person who tried to protect even the laborers who had no special relationship? I was counting on you to help the lieutenant colonel…”
“You speak as if you expected everything.”
The Undead shrugged.
“What happened? Anyway, I’ll just go for it. Take good care of the lieutenant colonel.”
“Are you going? Where are you going?”
“I’m going to go to the place where those two are fighting!”
“What are you going to do?”
To Lieutenant General Ebon’s question, the Undead answered as if it were natural.
“I won’t have to stop fighting! Although the boy is strong, he is still young. If you get hurt, you will suffer later. The cat lady is also in a very strange condition! I’ll have to try my best to stop the fight between the two. I don’t die, so I’m perfect for that role!”
Then Lieutenant General Ebon’s expression became strange. Lieutenant General Ebon muttered as he looked at the Undead with an expression of interest or displeasure.
“You… you are a better person than I expected.”
