Chapter 339
Raon and Dorian went through the secret passage and went up the hill overlooking the nursery school again.
“I thought I was really going to die.”
Dorian shook his head, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
“I’m so nervous that my head is blank.”
His eyes were wide open as if he was too busy protecting the children.
“Apply medicine to the injured area. If you don’t treat it quickly, it will leave scars.”
Raon took off the windbreaker he was wearing and gestured.
“Ah, that’s right.”
Dorian nodded and pulled a white medicine chest from his stomach pocket. He took out an antiseptic and wound medicine from the box and put it on the floor.
“Put it on, Lord Budan.”
“Am I not hurt?”
“Yes?”
Dorian’s mouth fell open.
“I heard there was a Ma Master.”
“I just finished.”
Raon tapped the longsword at his waist.
“It wasn’t that difficult because it was a lower level master.”
“Ah, no matter how low-level you are, a master is a master! Can you catch the Master that easily?”
“huh.”
“Heh, leaving no trace?”
“okay.”
Dorian’s question is not unusual. My current level is Master Intermediate. No matter how close you are to the upper class, you can’t easily deal with the lower class.
‘But…’
I can.
It wasn’t too difficult to catch him because his actual strength was beyond his superiors and he knew Lisbon’s moves.
“Huh…”
Dorian spat out nonsense.
“It feels like common sense is broken every time I talk to Budan-nim.”
He shook his head and began to apply medicine to the wound.
-joy!
Lars snorted as if he didn’t like it.
-If it was the original king, that guy’s finger. No, he would have killed him with his tongue! Just kill them with a sword and don’t be proud!
The guy started talking nonsense as if he didn’t like the admiration of Dorian, who he thought was a subordinate. I feel it every time, but it is narrower than Bandaengi who is deceived by the subject of the demon king.
“It’s just normal. No big deal.”
He just nodded his head because he wasn’t wrong.
“If that’s normal, I should die.”
Dorian wept as he closed the lid on the medicine.
“You said it before. Everyone is good at something different.”
Raon laughed and buried the blood-soaked windshield on the ground and burned it at once to prevent smoke from escaping. There was a lot of blood on it, so it was better to get rid of it than to erase it.
After erasing all traces of the burnt windshield, he took out two booklets from his pocket.
‘It was an unexpected spoil.’
In these two booklets, the names of Balkar Owen Cameloon officials who dealt with the orphanage were listed.
There isn’t much evidence yet, so even if you use it, you won’t be able to bring out Derus, but it will be of great help in revealing its true face in the future.
‘And…’
This is real.
Raon took out a blue marble from his pocket. A stick was engraved inside the bead.
‘I thought this artifact was hidden there.’
This bead is one of the ancient relics, and it was an artifact that increased the power of water attribute mana just by holding it. Although it was a low class, it was clear that Glacia’s energy had grown stronger.
‘Looks like it’s still the same.’
Derus Robert was so zealous in the search that he created a separate investigation team to find this artifact.
He was only here because he was a lower rank, but he was directly managing everything above the upper rank.
‘I’ll write well.’
Raon laughed at the dead Lisbon as he put the marble into his bosom.
When all the traces on the hill were neatly organized, knights and children began to come out of the nursery school entrance.
“Unstoppable Lord!”
Dorian, who had healed his wound, looked down and bit his lip.
“okay.”
Raon nodded and looked at the children’s faces. In front of him was Pine, whose eyes were anxious but with a bit of anticipation.
“see! The kids are holding my cookies!”
Dorian smiled, pointing at the cookies and candies the children were holding in their arms. It’s his favorite snack, and he looked very happy even though he gave it all away.
“great job.”
He patted Dorian on the shoulder. After all, I was grateful that he did his best to help even though it was someone else’s business.
‘He’s coming.’
The last person to come out of the orphanage was Borini Keaton, and he had a lot of complicated expressions on his face.
‘I’m sorry. And please.’
To be honest, I didn’t want to involve Borini Keaton, but he was the only person I could leave my children with.
“Can it be cured?”
Dorian let out a small sigh as he watched the children walk away. He seemed to be crying because his voice was wet.
– Of course!
Lars sniffed and nodded.
-If it doesn’t work, the main king will solve it somehow! do not worry!
Among the people around me, they were the most soft-hearted guys, so we got along well. It was to the point that I wanted to let the two of them meet.
“okay. I will treat you no matter what.”
Raon looked at Dorian and Lars in turn and nodded.
“You promised to find out my name.”
I nodded my head as I saw the slightly brighter expressions on the children’s faces. The brainwashing was not completed because the struggle ceremony to kill the only friend was not held.
If it was Federik now, he would surely be able to cure those children.
‘The signal must have gone to Derus now.’
Derus doesn’t believe it even if it’s his henchman. He must have planted the Rage Worm in Lisbon as well, so he should have known about his death by now.
‘He’ll come here in person.’
Because he’s that kind of guy.
Like a person who doesn’t trust others, Derus will come here and check all the traces.
That time is what you’re aiming for.
‘While you’re wasting your time here…’
Raon’s eyes flashed cold.
I’ll take your treasure.
* * *
The domain of the Duke of Babirun, one of the pillars of the Balkar Kingdom. A soft yet elegant melody flowed from the banquet hall at the center of the huge space.
Derus had a light drinking party with the Duke of Babirun at the banquet hall.
“You are too bold to let go of the man who cut off your son’s arm.”
Duke Babirun smiled as he poured a bottle of wine called Lunatic, which was said to be as precious as platinum.
“It’s not like that on purpose.”
Derus shook his head with a friendly smile.
“The child has a strong life, but he is still young, so you have to understand. The biggest problem is my son who never got it.”
He skillfully took down Raon and revealed his boldness.
“That is great. If it were me, I would have cut off the arm of that guy named Raon!”
Duke Babirun frowned, saying that he regretted not being there.
“It won’t last long to see a young guy wielding a sword recklessly, drunk on fame.”
“It is better to refrain from saying such things…”
“I am so angry! The blue sword is not an ordinary talent, so to cut off his arm so brutally! The buds are yellow!”
“Instead, can’t we meet the duke and have a pleasant conversation like this?”
Derus smiled and patted Duke Babirun on the shoulder.
“Heh heh not. I am honored.”
Duke Babirun lowered his head and slightly twisted his lips.
“We will take responsibility for the blue sword’s shoulder and return it to normal. If it’s the rounds magic that I’ve been studying, it will definitely show signs of improvement.”
Wizards of Babirun are specialists in healing. If Duke Babirun said this, it meant that it could be fixed even if it took time.
“Thank you.”
“I just hope that Robert and Babirun will have a good relationship going forward.”
“Of course…yes.”
Derus nodded to Duke Babirun and then stopped.
‘A Rage Worm?’
A little while ago, the Rage Worm’s hair on his head trembled. Judging by his senses, it seemed that the Rage Worm he had placed in Lisbon was dead.
In this day and age, there is no way to remove only rage worms. The death of Lazy Worm meant that Lisbon, who was managing farm number 9, was in trouble as well.
‘What is this all of a sudden…’
Farm No. 9 is a place where children who have not yet qualified as shadows are bred. In particular, it was hard to believe that an abnormality had occurred in a carefully operated place.
Tsk.
Derus clicked his tongue inaudibly and sent his thoughts to the butler Rezel behind him.
[Rezel.]
-Yes. Lord.
Rezel responded with an aura message without even a moment’s movement.
[Check the condition of the kennel number 9 and come back.]
-Yes.
He did not question the sudden order. Quietly retreated and went out of the banquet hall.
“Valkar and Robert. No, Babirun and Robert will continue to be friends.”
Derus smiled as if nothing had happened and clashed glasses with Duke Babirun.
kyaang.
Unlike the clear nagging, a grotesque echo arose from the darkness seeping into his chest.
* * *
After the banquet, Derus headed to the annex given by the duke as an accommodation. Rezel was waiting in front of the entrance as if she had already gathered information.
“What happened?”
“There is a problem with nothing.”
Rezel’s voice was unusually shaking violently.
“The kennel number 9 has not been reached.”
“That won’t be the end.”
Derus looked down at Rezel with cold eyes.
“yes. I ordered a nearby shadow to check the kennel…”
Rezel stopped talking and broke into a cold sweat.
“It is said that knights of the Kingdom of Owen came out of the breeding grounds.”
“Owen? Why are they!”
“I haven’t figured it out so far. Borini Keaton and the Silver Knights are said to have taken the young dogs to Owen.”
“What…”
Derus Robert licked his lips.
“Cabel and Lisbon!”
“Not a single shadow survived the orphanage. On the other hand, all the young dogs are said to have lived.”
Rezel lowered her head as if she was sorry.
‘Does this make sense?’
It was not enough that the location of Kennel No. 9 was discovered, Lisbon and Cabel died, and all the young dogs lived. This is impossible with common sense that he knows.
‘Something is out of order.’
Lisbon and Cabel could die. But never just die. As instructed, the entire nursery school should be blown up to erase all the evidence and dogs, but he couldn’t even do that and seemed to have died in vain.
“Even in Owen’s castle, there are shadows! Has anything been reported?”
“It is said that Boborini Keaton took only his henchmen out of the Silver Knights. They said there was no information at all because they didn’t tell them where they were going…”
“…”
Derus didn’t say anything.
“When was it attacked?”
“They said it was tonight.”
“Then didn’t the fighting ceremony take place?”
“yes. All the dogs that were there are alive.”
Rachel bit her lip and closed her eyes.
“under.”
Derus laughed.
“Ha ha ha ha ha ha!”
He let out a rare, vulgar laugh and shook his head. After a long burst of laughter, he grabbed a table.
Chiyiying!
The golden table made of metal and the groceries around it turned to dust in an instant.
“Investigate. What happened and who intervened? all.”
Derus’ expression didn’t change much from when he was at the banquet hall, but his eyes sank dryly as if all the water had evaporated.
“If you can’t find it, tell Owen and Cameloon that they’re going to decapitate all the pigs.”
* * *
Raon went down south with Dorian and arrived at a city called Motran.
This city was like a crossroads to the Sepia Chamber of Commerce in the southwest and the Robert family in the south.
“Because I came here. I’m a little nervous.”
Dorian sighed as he unpacked his things at the inn.
“Why don’t we go back now? I wonder if the children are doing well…”
“No.”
Raon grabbed Dorian by the shoulder and threw him away.
“Ouch…”
Dorian whimpered as he fell to the floor.
“Because no one will really welcome me!”
Seeing him speak like that, it seems like he lived every day getting scolded as he had heard.
“I don’t want to be seen cursing even at home!”
“I’m going to try to stop that.”
Dorian shook his head at Raon’s low words, but Dorian stopped abruptly.
“yes?”
“We can’t just let a member of Gwangpungdan get bullied inside the house, can we?”
The biggest goal was to destroy the underwater dungeon that Derus was focusing on, but he had no intention of skipping going to Dorian’s home. I was thinking of going to the sepia store and be sure to punish those who looked down on Dorian.
“Ah…”
Dorian opened his mouth as if he hadn’t thought of that.
“Ha, but our company is the top 5…”
“Don’t worry. Because I am the vice-master of Six Emperor Sieghart.”
Raon smiled lightly and tapped Dorian on the shoulder.
“That’s right. You were also nicknamed the White Sword Dragon…”
Dorian swallowed dryly. The dragon’s title of being the strongest among the young warriors of Gwangpungdan Budanju, which is said to be the most promising recently. No one will be able to look down on Raon.
“You are supplying goods here. I’ll be out for a few days.”
“yes? Where are you going?”
“Measures to keep children out of touch.”
Raon stood up with cold eyes.
“I’ll help if I can!”
Dorian came out saying he wanted to save the children.
“No, I have to do this myself.”
There is a high possibility that Matio or a similar level of executive is in the underwater dungeon, so Dorian will be discovered the moment he enters.
Since this was unpredictable, taking Dorian with them was tantamount to committing suicide for each other.
“Ugh…”
Dorian dropped her head in disappointment.
“But there is nothing I can do to help.”
“What is that?”
“Do you have any subspace pockets?”
“Sure!”
He nodded quickly and took out a subspace bag from his stomach pocket.
“But this doesn’t go far. The compression ratio is only 10 times.”
“Um…”
Raon licked his lips while looking at the subspace pouch and Dorian’s stomach pouch.
‘Usually this is correct.’
Subspace pockets have different values depending on their compression rates. Military men with great reputations and rich people use subspace bags that have limitations, but Dorian’s belly bag had no such limitations.
When I recalled that such a treasure was passed on to Dorian for the absurd reason that he did not explain it, it seemed that the Sanghoeju would not unconditionally hate that guy.
“You pick out a present for the Sanghoe Lord here.”
“Because it’s a store of all things in our house, there is nothing that we don’t have…”
“Enough. Choose unconditionally.”
Raon pressed Dorian’s shoulder as if threatening.
“Ah yes…”
Dorian nodded, trembling.
“Then I will go.”
Raon smiled and opened the dorm door and tried to leave, but turned around again.
“…Do you have any parsley?”
* * *
Raon immediately left Motran and ran towards the Robert family with all his might.
-Where are you going?
Lars tilted his head as if it were odd.
‘I’ll know when I go.’
-Kkeuh This guy full of secrets…
He wrinkled his nose as if he didn’t like it.
-Even the king knows that you are not ordinary…
‘How about grilled shrimp for lunch today?’
-New shrimp salt….”
‘And even lobster!’
-Oh oh!
Lars forgot the main topic in an instant and licked his lips.
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lars.
‘This won’t work for long.’
Or maybe you already noticed.
But I can’t just skip this one. Even if he couldn’t eat himself, he had to stop at any cost from exerting more power on Derus.
‘I don’t have that much time.’
Stopped by Cameloon and consumed 4 days. Thanks to destroying the nursery school, I bought time, but even if the schedule is revealed someday, in order to avoid suspicion, I have to destroy the underwater dungeon as soon as possible and get to the Sepia store.
‘Still, I feel good.’
Because I did everything there was to do.
As I was proud that I had avenged Lisbon and saved all the children, I thought of the way Derus would burst into anger by attacking his men, and I naturally burst into laughter.
‘It’s a pity that I can’t see it in person.’
I wanted to intuit Derus’ distorted expression, but it was a pity that I couldn’t. I was envious of Rezel, who would stick by his side.
After running all day, expecting Derus’s distorted expression, Raon found a place to sleep on the shore of a small lake.
“Um…”
He exhaled a short breath as he looked toward the empty bush.
“Merlin. right?”
There are only a few wild stones that I can feel right now, but there must be Merlin.
“I will grant your wish. come out.”
I have no intention of entrusting the wish sphere to Merlin for a long time. I wanted to do her favor right now and finish it.
‘I prepared well this time.’
Merlin seems to like nesting in small animals, so he prepared grains, nuts, fruits, vegetables, insect candy, and even sweets. Parsley wasn’t enough, so I brought celery. Any guy could handle it.
cooong.
However, Merlin did not appear right away. After about 30 seconds, a lion broke through the bush and appeared with a heavy step.
“Did you call?”
A thick but refreshing voice flowed from the lion’s muzzle.
-her.
“…”
There is no lion food…
