In the corridor where the salty, sticky moisture congeals, two footsteps resonate in unison.
The one walking ahead is Major Garm Nord, and the one following is Captain Kirko Grimm.
Bikir, who took on the identity of Gareum, was walking towards the place where the ‘Black Tongue’ lieutenant colonel was currently in the hearing audit room.
‘Finally, I got to meet all the 5 chiefs.’
Dordium Colonel Suware Colonel Vidism Brigadier Plubber Brigadier General Fluver… All the wardens I’ve met so far have been unique.
However, the dominant opinion was that the black-tongued lieutenant colonel he was going to meet was a shady and unpleasant person to the extent that the other wardens mentioned earlier seemed ordinary.
‘How can I get fewer votes than Brigadier General Plubber in the popularity poll?’
The black-tongued lieutenant colonel was always in last place in the popularity polls of junior and middle guards.
This is despite the fact that it allows you to vote in duplicate.
Suddenly, Vikir, wondering if he could get a clue, spoke to Kirko, who was following him.
“Hey Adjutant.”
“yes.”
Since it was the first time Vikir had talked to her since becoming her superior, Kirko’s face was a little bright.
However, the topic that followed was something that made her expression cold again.
“He seems to hate the black tongue lieutenant colonel.”
“…”
“I heard this grinding earlier.”
At Bikir’s words, Kirko was silent for a moment.
And he opened his mouth.
“I don’t gossip about my superiors.”
“Just list the facts.”
Kirko then took a deep breath. What should I do?
“His real name and age are unknown. His rank is a lieutenant colonel, and his nickname is ‘Black Tongue’ or ‘Guard Guard.’
“I heard that he uses a sword? I heard that his skills are amazing.”
“Yes. There is a saying that, simply by skill alone, I am higher than Colonel Dordeum or Colonel Suware. However, his personality is so psycho and his work reputation is the worst, so in terms of years and salary, he should have been promoted to brigadier general. It’s a lieutenant colonel…”
“Internal absurd military discipline Hey, you’re in charge of internal discipline and various audits by yourself, right?”
“Speaking of which, such things are seldom done within the New Wave. Unless it is the whim of the Black Tongue Lieutenant Colonel. Like today.”
“You seem to be on the moody side.”
“Yes. The problem is not only the capriciousness, but also the impulsive control disorder and sexual orientation. It is notorious for harassing and torturing not only prisoners but also guards.”
Eventually, Kirko listed the names of those who had been victimized by the Black Tongue lieutenant colonel.
Mostly people who were tortured to death, maimed, or missing.
“23 years ago, Ballantine Grim, Ensign Farron Farundle… 12 years ago, Lieutenant Yang Borz, Captain Gordyk… 7 years ago, Captain Auby, Major Jean Dale… 3 years ago Lieutenant Marson, Lieutenant Yodel… A year ago, recently, one of my classmates, Lieutenant Virginia…”
Among them was the name of what was presumed to be Kirko’s mother.
‘So was it? What made me grind my teeth.’
Bikir looked away from Kirko’s cold face.
Meeting a person with a dark past requires great determination.

The hearing audit room where the black tongue lieutenant colonel is located in a shady limestone cave.
Caves with narrow and steep slopes winding up and down, twisting up and down the caves were terribly complicated, but there was no fear of getting lost as they were single roads.
“It’s as twisted as it is twisted. There’s no decent guy living in a place like this.”
“Usually, I wouldn’t have inferred a person’s personality based on where they live, but this time I agree.”
At Bikir’s words, Kirko also nodded and expressed her affirmation.
Before long, they entered a fairly wide open cavity.
It is a space where the roads that have come so far have only expanded widely, and nothing has changed in particular.
Up and down stalactites protruding like teeth The stinky seawater that runs along the walls Deep pools at the bottom And…
“What is this?”
Kirko tilted her head at the black ball-like object lying on the floor.
There were more and more black balls that looked like eggs of some kind, and later they appeared to stick to each other, covering the floor, walls and ceiling.
Neither Vikir nor Kirko knew what this black sphere about a meter in diameter was.
When I poked it with my finger, I could only feel the soft texture, but I couldn’t tell what was inside.
at that time.
A black ball that Bikir kicked with his boot made a strange sound and twisted his body
.
Streams and streams…
From the top of the black ball, a reddish yellow juice with an unpleasant smell began to leak out.
“Ugh! What is this smell? It’s like rotting meat…”
It was such a disgusting stench that even Kirko, who had a strong stomach, frowned.
Before long, Bikir took out his triplet and hit the black ball.
Fuck!
The black ball distorted as if it were about to explode, and the contents inside began to spurt out through the narrow hole at the top.
“……!”
In an instant, Kirko’s eyes widened as if they would tear apart.
What came out of the black ball was a corpse.
Bony skeletons and thick blood poured down the floor.
Bikir kicked the black balls close to him in succession.
…Fuck! gurgling! Knock!
Then, as expected, the unpleasant destructive sound exploded and nasty smells began to come out.
The black balls spewed out different things from within.
Skeletons with only bones left, clotted bloody yellow fat and chunks of flesh like jelly, or mummies with only skin and bones left withered.
Only then did Vikir know the identity of this black ball.
“They were leeches.”
leech. A bloodsucking animal that attaches itself to the body of another and sucks its blood.
But here in New Wave, the leech is a little different.
Leeches sucking blood, leeches sucking bones, leeches sucking flesh, etc… Each of the leeches here had different things to suck.
If caught by a blood-sucking leech, a human would instantly become withered like a mummy, leaving only bones and skin.
When caught by a bone-sucking leech, all the bones in the body disappear, leaving only blood and intestines floating around in the skin, literally a living ‘blood bag’.
When caught by a flesh-sucking leech, only bones and blood remain.
All the leeches in this place now had grown to a large size, each swallowing a human in one bite, rolling their bodies into a ball and digesting them in their stomachs.
Surprisingly, among those trapped in the stomachs of the leeches, some were still alive.
Kirko heard a faint voice calling her name.
“Ki kirkoo…”
A voice that seemed to be cut off at any moment was less than the sound of a light breeze.
Upon hearing that voice, Kirko’s eyes widened as if they would tear.
“Virginia!?”
Lieutenant Virginia. It was the motive of Kirko, who disappeared after being caught for violating military law and taken to the black tongue lieutenant colonel.
She was dragged to the hearing audit room for the crime of embezzling several bags of sugar that should be returned to the birthday person at most, having only helped Colonel Dordium steal munitions as a minor subordinate, and never returned again.
Virginia’s voice was coming from inside the black ball farther back.
Fuck!
Kirko immediately drew his sword and hit the black ball with all his might.
The leech’s tough skin slowly cuts away when it touches the aura.
Kirko finally scratched the leech’s hide and twisted it open.
Chow ah ah –
Lieutenant Virginia emerged from the leech’s bodily fluids.
“…!?”
Kirko covered her mouth with both hands when she saw her classmate for the first time in a year.
Bikir approached Kirko, who was standing there blankly, unable to find anything to say.
“It must have been a bone-sucking leech.”
Spread across the floor, Virginia was in tears.
She desperately moved her mouth and conveyed her final will with the shape of her lips.
“Porridge… give me…”
Kirko stood blankly, unable to close her eyes or mouth at such a terrible sight.
It was Vikir who used a hand on her behalf.
Knock-
The skilled hound ended the victim’s breath as painlessly as possible.
“Ah …… Ah …”
Kirco kneeled with tears and moisturized.
at that time.
“Whoop whoop whoop-what are you doing right now?”
The voice that greeted Bikir and Kirko resonated in that deep cave.
I see a shadow hanging between countless black leeches.
It had an unrivaled black color that made it clearly visible even in the surrounding shadows and darkness.
“…”
Bikir narrowed his eyes.
Finally, the most shady and obnoxious author in New Wave has appeared.
Lieutenant Colonel ‘Black Tongue’.
He was the last 5 chief jailer.
