The Standard of Reincarnation Episode 169
Carmen Spit! Spit it out.
There were no eyes here and there was no need to pay attention.
“Looking at a girl like you, it’s obvious that Vincen will rule Adenka.”
He kicked the tax collector.
Seri fell backwards.
I almost screamed, but I managed to hold it in.
She thought that it was not polite to the master she served to scream at the occasional crude cheating.
“I don’t even know the hierarchy.”
He squatted at the publican’s bedside.
He raised his hand and touched Se-ri’s cheek.
“As a handmaid, I dared to look back at Adenka’s direct descendant.”
Carmen expressed all her resentment and anger toward Adenka and Vincen to the tax collector.
“I told you I didn’t like the look in your eyes.”
He covered her eyelids with the palm of his hand.
“Then you should close your eyes.”
I raised my magic power and pressed it down.
Seri bit her lip.
‘Never ever, I never scream.’
Seri desperately remembered Vincen.
I remembered Vincen’s class.
I had to become a person worthy of Vincen.
‘But…’
It was scary.
I didn’t know what Carmen was doing, but my eyes felt like they were going to explode.
It felt like my eyelids were collapsing from the strong pressure.
“I beg you to save me.”
“…”
The tax collector did not answer.
“I beg you.”
Carmen gave more strength.
Seri’s fingertips trembled.
The fear of blindness was right in front of us.
I was seized with a sense of fear that I would never see the light of day again.
‘scared.’
Although it was not expressed outwardly, it was a fact that it was extremely frightening.
It was the first fear she had experienced.
But she didn’t collapse in fear.
Outwardly, he said calmly.
“You can redeem my body, but you will not be able to redeem my mind.”
“…what?”
“I am a person who serves the head of the household. I may not be worthy of that status, but I cannot be a person who is ashamed of that status.”
As I spoke, the fear dissipated little by little.
When I thought of Vincen, my mind was at ease.
“I will know for sure today. Confucius is not even close to the feet of the head of the household.”
“This crazy bitch.”
Carmen was genuinely furious for a moment.
It was intended to intimidate and harass in moderation.
It was enough to disturb Vincen’s planting until the sword fight was over.
The maid’s purpose was just that.
Carmen grinned.
“You will disappear as of today.”
And then
a voice was heard.
“The reason you are still alive is because of your mother’s earnest request.”
It was Vincent.
* * *
Carmen is of Adenca blood.
Objectively, he was a fairly good swordsman.
However, he had no proficiency in spiritism.
He didn’t even know that Se-Ri was an elemental sage.
And he didn’t know that she secretly sent a bomber.
“warning. tax collector danger. kidnap.”
Vincen, who had been taking a break, jumped up from his seat.
‘shit.’
This was obviously my mistake.
Yulian, who was sitting at the desk and dozed off, had a teary face.
“sorry.”
“It’s nothing for you to apologize for.”
Julian has also been busy lately.
In fact, since Julian was in charge of the duties as the family head, he also did not have much mental capacity.
“where are you?”
Pompok shook his head.
It meant getting out, but not knowing where it was.
Vinchen looked at Julian.
Julian quickly gave an answer.
“It’s like a space protected by magic. Since we got out, we haven’t been able to find our way back.”
“How can I find it?”
Julian closed his eyes for a moment.
I thought of tens of thousands.
seconds later.
“There must be an answer in the basement of the Presbyterian House.”
Adenka’s most secret space.
Vinchen headed there.
Vinchen released momentum and summoned the elders.
He did not treat the elders with reason and logic.
“If even one person helped Carmen misbehave, I will kill all of you.”
The elders, who would normally have objected, said nothing this time.
No one could open their mouths in front of Vincen’s overwhelming momentum.
“However, if anyone knows anything about Carmen’s misdeeds, I will forgive all of them and will no longer hold them guilty for the same crime.”
* * *
Carmen was startled.
“How are you guys doing here?”
This was Adenka’s safe house, where she had to ride three times in the proper order through the transfer gateway in the basement of the Presbyterian House.
Vincen did not answer.
I just moved closer to the tax collector.
Seri struggled to open her mouth.
“I’m sorry for being a burden.”
Vinchen glanced back.
“Elder Fidanel. Bring the publican safely to Gaia’s temple.”
“All right.”
Fidanel came closer.
Carmen yells! screamed
“New Elder! How dare you!”
“…get out of the way. Even the elders have turned their backs on you.”
At the moment Vincen gave the last indulgences, there were three elders who raised their hands.
They were all elders who supported Carmen and were the instigators of this work.
All three ringleaders betrayed Carmen.
There was not a single elder who could keep his faith in front of Vincen, who was genuinely angry.
said Carmen in a fit.
“stop.”
Fidanel stopped walking as if in trouble.
Vincent said.
“Evacuate.”
“I told you to stop.”
Fidanel sighed deeply.
They were giving orders at once in the same space, but the order was different.
There was a certain dignity in Vinchen’s voice that dared not resist.
He ignored Carmen and carried the publican.
“I told you to stop, you son of a bitch!”
Carmen swung her sword.
towards Fidanel’s back.
It was poised to pierce Seri and Fidanel at the same time.
It was Adenka’s quick sword.
“The sword the first Lord left behind wasn’t supposed to be like this.”
A fountain of blood gushed from Carmen’s shoulder.
His arm, which had been throwing a quicksword, fell to the floor.
‘Uh… when?’
Carmen did not see Vincen’s foot sword.
There wasn’t even a black wind.
‘no. Didn’t you pull out your sword?’
It seemed that the sword had not been drawn.
So the situation was kind of incomprehensible.
“What dirty things have you done!”
Carmen lost her temper and ran towards Vincen.
Vincen did not avoid Carmen.
I just stood there and looked at Carmen.
he didn’t do anything
“this person…!”
But Carmen couldn’t move any more.
It seemed to be blocked by a wall.
Of course, there were no walls here.
It wasn’t even using magic.
I just couldn’t move.
It felt like a huge demon was right in front of me.
‘Damn it…!’
he couldn’t do anything
The feeling of facing the overwhelming Mother Nature.
I had never felt such a sense of defeat when facing my father.
Fidanel, who was turning around with the tax collector on his back, glanced behind him.
‘I was just overwhelmed in the case.’
He was afraid to even breathe in front of Vincen.
Carmen’s presence was weighed down by Vincen’s presence.
‘Me too. I never thought I’d see something like that in my lifetime.’
In the end, Carmen knelt on the spot.
“sorry. My thoughts were short.”
“…”
Carmen was terrified and trembled.
This space with no one to see was a space of fear to him.
Because it meant there was no one to save me.
“Think about the bond of blood and flesh. I was just kidding.”
“….”
“Because you are so strong, I just wanted to upset your heart a little.”
Yulian, who had been hiding behind Vincen, peeked out his face.
“Uh brother, where do you smell?”
He pinched his nose and frowned.
“What smell do you mean?”
“A cowardly smell. Ebebebe.”
Julian giggled and cried.
Carmen wanted to cut off Yulian’s head right away, but she didn’t dare to move.
Now I had no choice but to get down on my knees and beg my brother to forgive me.
It was the only way out of this situation.
Vincent said.
“Thank you mother.”
If it wasn’t for Versa’s request, he would have killed him.
Carmen, seen by Vincen, was Adenca’s disgrace.
Carmen nodded vigorously.
“I will also thank my mother.”
Cautiously, he stood up and picked up his severed arm.
The cut surface was so clean that I thought that if I brought it to the temple, I would be able to attach it perfectly.
said Julian.
“Oh, I need to put my arm down.”
“…”
“I said I wouldn’t kill you, but I didn’t say I would allow you to arm yourself, right?”
As Carmen glared at him, Julian hid behind Vincen.
“Who is that guy?”
“I don’t know.”
“Still, I am your blood relative. Are you saying that your flesh and blood deserves to be raped by someone like that?”
Vincent let out a short breath.
“I will not keep my promise to my mother if you say the word ‘blood’ one more time.”
Carmen started to hiccup.
There were few things he could do in the face of overwhelming strength.
“I’m sorry.”
“You can do whatever you want with your arms.”
At that, Carmen unknowingly laughed.
It was like seeing a ray of hope in the midst of despair.
“Thank you!”
Vincen did not answer.
So, Yulian spoke instead.
“Even if I bring it to the temple, it won’t stick, right?”
“…what?”
“My older brother decided to cut it, but how am I going to attach it?”
“…”
Carmen examined her arm.
I only paid attention to the clean cutting surface, but when I concentrated my mind, something was different.
‘No way…’
I felt like I was going crazy.
I didn’t even see Vinchen’s sword directly, I just looked at the wounds inflicted by Vinchen’s sword.
But it felt like being sucked into a deep darkness.
Even the traces of the sword left by Vincen were not at a level he could handle.
“…ah.”
Carmen fell to her knees and began to weep.
Vinchen and Julian turned and went outside, and Carmen cried for a long time.
“Again again.”
He clenched his fists.
Fingernails dug into palms.
“It has always been like this.”
I’ve lived my whole life being compared to Deia.
As a first princess, he has been working hard all his life not to lose to Deia, a second princess with more outstanding talent.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t surpass Deia.
He has lived with a sense of defeat all his life.
And today, that sense of defeat reached its peak.
Ironically, it was Vinchen, not Deia, who gave the greatest sense of defeat.
I lay there and cried for a long time.
But a voice came.
“Do you want to become stronger?”
he shook his head.
It was a sweet voice.
“Who are you!”
He instinctively recognized the voice of a demon.
This is Carmen who laughed at the fact that Marlon made a contract with an evil spirit in the past.
But today it was hard to deny that voice.
“I will give you strength.”
“Shut up!”
He picked up the sword with his left arm.
You couldn’t make a pact with an evil spirit.
That was the last pride of the First Prince of Adenka.
“I don’t know about Vincen, but I’ll let you kill Deia.”
Carmen’s body trembled.
Those words were relatively realistic.
“I need to tell you a little about your pain.”
“…”
“And the elders who betrayed you must pay for their betrayal.”
Gradually,
Carmen’s eyes began to turn black.
Murder was boiling in his heart.
“kill.”
Ironically, his anger was not directed at Vincen.
The target of his anger was Deia and the elders.
and one more.
It was her mother, Versa.
Ever since I was young, I have resented Versailles.
If you’re going to do this, you’ll give birth to me second.
Why did you give birth first and make me despair so much?
He has been resentful of Versailles.
But then, Versa’s voice was heard.
“I hoped this day would never come.”
Tears welled up in Versa’s eyes.
A sword was in her right hand.
“Vinchen. Thank you for listening to my request.”
8 star unmanned.
Versa walked towards Carmen.
“I will not tie the knot.”
