Episode 3 Hell Hound (3)
Babies Bikir Bikir van Baskerville.
He was lying on the outskirts of the shared nursery with the lights off.
There is not much you can do with the body of a child who can’t even control his body by himself.
He just sucks on his nanny’s milk and thinks over each situation before returning.
8 years old. For the first time, I felt mana. In the world, he was a talent worthy of being called a genius, but within the Baskervilles, he belonged to the mediocre axis.
15 years old. You have accumulated 1 circle of mana. The sword was able to radiate an aura, albeit faintly.
20 years old. began to be put into practice in earnest. They were mainly assigned missions such as assassination and espionage and subjugation of barbarians.
25 years old. Is it because the ship lived more fiercely than others? Descendants of the Baskervilles had mastered swordsmanship at a level they hadn’t reached even in their thirties.
29 years old. The limits to which an illegitimate child could grow were clear. The orthodox direct descendents, who wanted to lag behind for a while, began to run ahead of them as soon as they gained practical experience, and soon disappeared so far forward that they could not be seen.
30 years old. The gate to the Pandemonium was opened and countless demons began to invade.
35 years old. He endured the era of destruction with his bare body, accumulated a lot of practical experience, and killed more monsters than anyone else.
39 years old. won the war Empire. It was a valuable victory for the human union.
40 years old. A life as a hunting dog that has been loyal throughout its life. But the Baskervilles did not reciprocate that loyalty. What came back was the slander and false accusation of colluding with the demons. And it was the blade of the guillotine.
Aww –
I hate Hugo Baskerville again.
When Vikir gnashed her teeth, the nanny was startled and pulled him from her arms.
“Oh, the young master goes through this sometimes.”
She put Bikir in the cradle and got up.
Now that her shift is over, it’s time to switch to another nanny.
but.
Suk-
The nanny, who should have gone through the door as usual, looked around and then went to the bed across from her.
“Come on, youngsters. Get wet.”
The nanny started breastfeeding some of the children she had breastfed earlier.
The children of the Baskervilles are raised together in one room.
It is to raise all children equally.
But what mother would treat her own child and her half-brother the same?
Some mothers memorized the characteristics of their children well and would tell the nanny and ask for a longer breastfeeding.
Of course, it was a request that was difficult to expect from Bikir, who did not know who the mother was, so she had no choice but to set aside all expectations.
At least until you can get food and eat it with your own hands, you will have to grow up to be able to do anything quickly.
……just then.
A somewhat unexpected thing happened.
The nanny looked around and approached Bikir’s cradle again.
“Ugh. Madam too. What is this? Bring it to Master Bikir’s cradle.”
lady? There are few people in this family who can hear the voice of the mistress.
And there is even less reason for such a being to ask for something to be brought to him.
The nanny took out a rather large box from her bosom, but she herself did not seem to know what was in it.
Dalgrak-
Nanny tilted her head a few times as she placed the box in Vikir’s cradle.
Then, he ran out of the nursery with gunfire.
“…”
Bikir looked at the box next to him.
Did you have any memories like this before returning? There was nothing.
He lifted his head with difficulty and looked out of the cradle.
Bikir’s Cradle, quite far from the other cradles.
Something doesn’t feel right
And forebodings are always right.
Creeps – crackles –
Eventually, the box was squeezed and something poked out its head.
A gift for a newborn child.
snake.
Two black, triangular-headed snakes were exposing their thick bodies out of the box.
Bloody Mamba.
A venomous snake is also called Chilbosa (七步死) because if bitten, one dies before taking seven steps.
It is a rare species that is rarely found in the world.
Bikir half-opened his mouth in amazement.
Who released this snake here?
Apparently, the nanny also went home without knowing what she had unlocked.
Bikir, who was bewildered for a moment, soon grasped the situation.
‘Come to think of it, in the nursery, there were often cases of babies dying mysteriously.’
There were many cases in which children who had outstanding and extraordinary abilities from birth died prematurely.
In the meantime, it was a different world from him, and he thought it was just an accidental assassination or bad luck.
But looking at it now, the situation is not very good.
The black hand aiming for the nursery must have been reaching out from within the family.
Shh-
Two bloody mambas are coming towards you.
Its red mouth, gleaming fangs, seemed already covered in blood.
In the event of an emergency, all the children in this nursery could be exterminated.
If that happens, there will be a catastrophe unprecedented in the history of the Baskervilles.
‘……Well, that’s not too bad either.’
There is no attachment to the family at all.
However, if the beginning of the destruction is from oneself, it becomes a problem.
Bikir stretched out his hand.
After going through the era of destruction, I have beaten and killed countless monsters.
Reptilian monsters, among them, those in the form of snakes, I’ve dealt with countless times, and of course I was well aware of their weaknesses.
Even the body of a newborn baby was enough.
…Kwak-kwak!
Bikir reached out with both hands and grabbed a poisonous snake each.
The place I caught was right around the nape of my neck. A place where snake teeth cannot reach.
Rather, the snakes that have been preemptively attacked are embarrassed and struggle.
They tried to stab the enemy with sharp scales, but Vikir’s body was already hardened by the protection of the River Styx, so it was impossible.
I don’t know if it’s teeth, but the scales don’t make a single scratch.
at the same time. Bikir managed the mana of his whole body.
The mana tank, which had been empty since he was born, was filled with mana.
It was the result of drinking the water of the River Styx to its limit.
…Pat!
The two fists began to emit a twinkling light.
It is a state that the babies in the nursery gathered here will be able to reach in the next 8 years.
Bikir did it when he was less than eight months old.
Tsutsutsutsutsutsu…
The bodies of the two venomous snakes stiffened.
It is the providence of the wild that the body becomes sluggish when facing a top predator.
The two venomous snakes froze with their scales stiff, as if they felt unprecedented fear from the child resembling milk in front of them.
Before long, Bikir’s mana-infused hands ferociously twisted the necks of the two venomous snakes.
…Ouddeuk!
The hide and the flesh beneath it are intact, but the bones supporting them have been cut off.
The two venomous snakes each opened their mouths.
The pressure caused her two eyeballs to protrude and her tongue to stick out.
The two venomous snakes, whose necks were broken, shuddered at that moment and poured out excrement and urine and died.
Deadly venom dripped from the tips of the exposed fangs.
* * *
The next day.
All the guardian knights in the family gathered in the common childcare room at the screams of the nanny who came to work first.
Bikir, smiling brightly, held two venomous snakes with broken necks in his hands.
The Guardian Knights who saw that it was the bloody mamba, the notorious venom of the ‘Red and Black’ Mountains, were literally surprised to the point that their eyes popped out.
Even though it was a snake without fangs, it was a great disaster that such a monster was found in a nursery.
Within a few minutes, this was transmitted to Hugo, who was in the main castle, and he ran straight to the parent castle.
Afterwards, all the nannies who worked the night shift were tortured and executed, and a really strict guard was set up in the nursery.
The culprit who released the poisonous snake was never found.
but only one person.
“…”
A young hound who was only speechless saw through all the truth.
The legendary child who strangled two poisonous snakes in the cradle, dived for the longest time in the Styx River in the shortest time since he was born.
Bikir van Baskerville.
He quietly lies in the cradle and waits for the right time.
The moment to repay the debt, the time of revenge.
…
and 8 years have passed since then.
