Raon smiled coolly as he looked at Temus, who was shocked.
‘I can hear the sound of the pupils turning from here.’
Temus was thinking faster than he had been since he was born, trying to find a way to get out of this place. I was already looking forward to what excuses he would come up with.
“Hey, you crazy guy!”
Temus seemed to have finished thinking as he bit his lip and pointed.
“What are you doing? “Why on earth did you kill my student!”
He pretended to be attacked at the station and screamed as if it had nothing to do with what happened here.
“Oh, you’re going to come out like that?”
Raon chuckled as he swung the bleeding sword.
“The excuse is so one-dimensional. “I’m disappointed that even after giving you time to think about it, it’s still at that level.”
“W-what are you talking about!”
“What kind of bullshit are you talking about after attacking us?”
“Why am I attacking you! We wait here and if a patient comes… .”
“Are you still making such ugly excuses even though you have this flute?”
I picked up the silver flute that Temus’ disciple dropped.
“Well, what about that! That sounds similar to a grass flute… .”
“You look at me too much.”
Raon chuckled, pointing to the strange pattern engraved on the inside of the flute.
“This is Jinmyeongjeok.”
“ah… .”
“A top-level artifact that activates the magic method.”
Jinmyeongjeok was a special flute that could activate pre-installed Jin methods from a distance. It could not be reversed because the internal pattern of the Jinmyeongjeok had to be modified to match the Jinmyeong method.
“You locked us in the camp with this, and you made such flimsy excuses. I guess you had no idea that we would get caught?”
“What the hell are you… .”
Temus’ chin trembled. He had a half-fazed expression.
“What on earth! You won’t give up and destroy all my plans! “How did you know about this place?”
“I have a friend who has good sense.”
Raon shrugged his shoulders, enjoying Temus’ surprise.
-Of course. The King’s senses are on a different level from humans… what are you talking about! Why is this king your friend!
‘I’m just saying that.’
I pushed away Ras, who said he couldn’t be friends with humans, and took a step closer to Temus.
“What will happen if it becomes known that the famous and well-intentioned Master Temus has been working with an assassin behind his back? “And the patient I tried to treat but was rejected.”
Temus is a person who is very sensitive to his reputation and rumors. Cold sweat rolled down his face at the thought that his name would go through the floor and into the basement.
“Even if I die here, my name will remain as the worst healer on the continent, right?”
“Keuuuuuuu!”
Temus stepped back and gritted his teeth.
‘Everything, everything is ruined! ‘It’s all over!’
As long as I have that flute. There is no way to escape unless they are caught setting up camp in this spot. Even if he survives, Derus Robert will pretend not to know him.
‘Who the hell is this guy? ‘What kind of 17-year-old is this?’
Not only was it not enough to break all the plans, but finding this place and even understanding the evidence was so absurd that I was so dizzy that I fainted.
“There are a lot of people waiting, so let’s finish quickly.”
Raon came forward with his sword raised.
“Now, just listen to me for a moment. I am… hmm?”
Temus, who had been waving his hand to stop him from coming, narrowed his eyes. Even though quite some time had passed since the hiding formation was broken, there was no sign of anyone other than Raon.
“Are you sure you came alone?”
“Then, if I catch one of you, will two come?”
Raon nodded as if it was obvious.
“Haaaa… .”
Temus clutched his chest and took a deep breath.
‘Heaven has not abandoned me!’
That young guy still thought he was a congressman. By using his poison attack and instantly melting it, he was able to escape before the Great Lord of the Heavenly Sword came.
Goooooh.
Temus hid his left hand behind his back and slowly collected the poison. When Raon was caught off guard, he had to melt his heart or throat with poison.
‘This will not be my grave, this will be your grave.’
Hiding my true feelings, I waited for Raon to approach me with a scared face.
“joy.”
Raon snorted as he looked at Temus, who was biting his lip.
‘They’re really advertising that they have an ulterior motive.’
Temus looked despairing or frightened, but there was murderous intent deep in his eyes. It was obvious that he had poison in his hidden left hand.
“Let’s finish.”
Raon pretended not to know anything and approached Temus with his sword lowered. The moment the distance was reduced to five steps, Temus’ eyes flashed fiercely.
“Get lost!”
Temus’ left hand shot out like a thunderbolt. The purple energy in his grasp stretched out like a spear and shot towards his heart.
“That’s right.”
Raon stepped forward and imbued the blade of Jecheon Sword with the sharp strokes of a sharp sword.
Whoops!
The manga ball’s flame flew out like a flash and split off Temus’ entire left arm, which was spewing poison.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
When Temus screamed and retreated, he followed up and stabbed his remaining right shoulder with his sword, sending him crashing to the ground.
“Keuuuuuck!”
Temus, who lost the use of both arms in an instant, vomited blood and trembled all over. Raon immediately put his hand into his mouth and pulled out the poison hidden in his molars.
“Keuuuuu… .”
“Your subordinates didn’t scream even once, but they are severely punished.”
“Oh, how can you be so dogmatic? Who the hell are you… .”
Temus’ chin trembled with a pale complexion.
“Raon Sieghardt.”
“Not that name. What is it? “How can you be such a brat who hasn’t even passed the terms and conditions!”
“There is no reason to satisfy your curiosity.”
Raon placed his right hand near Temus’ solar plexus and shocked him.
“Off!”
A strong shock struck Temus’ heart and his head fell back. It wasn’t a kill, it was a temporary measure to stop the Lazy Worm that might be in his heart.
“Get up.”
Raon immediately woke up Temus by slapping his cheek.
“Keuuuuu… .”
Temus swallowed dryly and looked up at Raon.
“What did you just… .”
“Because your master may have put a bug in your heart.”
“Huh!”
Temus’ eyes shook violently, as if his body was consumed by fear.
“You don’t even have a shadow… .”
“That’s not all. “I also know that your master is the ruler of the south.”
“ah… .”
Temus’ mouth opened wide enough to tear. His expression is even more shocked than when his arm fell off.
“Rage Worm must have fainted too, so from now on just answer any questions I ask.”
“Oh, you idiot. “There is no such thing as a lazy worm for me.”
“That’s good. “I can interrogate you comfortably.”
Raon smiled coldly and grabbed Temus by the collar, pressing his body against his.
“Wow… hmm? Hahaha!”
The scared guy looked down at his hands and suddenly burst out laughing.
“Why are you smiling?”
“It’s not me who dies here, it’s you.”
“what?”
“My blood is a terrible poison. “You too will die.”
Temus glanced at the red blood on his hands. It was the blood that spurted out when he cut the guy’s arm a little while ago.
“this?”
Raon chuckled as he looked at the blood.
“Do you think I didn’t know this?”
Temus’ blood contained a poison strong enough to be called blood poison.
However, the poison artifact and the ring of fire protected the organs and mana circuit, and burned all the poison that came into the manga ball, causing no harm other than feeling a little sick.
“My poison can’t be withstood by someone like you… .”
“So when do I die? “You buried it a long time ago.”
“uh… ?”
As he smiled leisurely, Temus’ eyes got so big that they almost seemed to pop out.
“Do and Dokdo don’t work?”
“Now that you’ve done everything, it’s my turn to ask questions.”
Raon pressed down on Temus and lowered his chin slightly.
“Yeah, I don’t know how you saw me, but my mouth never opens! “Kill it!”
“Oh, your mouth is heavy?”
“okay. I can’t open my mouth through torture… .”
“are you okay. “I learned how to do that when I do that.”
Raon lifted his chin and smiled coolly.
Right to you.
* * *
“The previous factory is still in operation, and a factory was created to raise shadows in a village near Balkar. There are many cities, towns, and villages, so it is easy to provide for children… .”
Temus’ eyes were crushed like scrap metal, weighed down by pain and fear. Unable to overcome the difficult grammar he had taught him, he blurted out Robert’s secret.
‘The other factories are the same, and four have been added in the meantime.’
The factory is a place where shadows and crops are raised. Robert continued to commit more serious sins for 20 years.
“What is your master’s purpose?”
“I-I don’t know either. “He just said he had work to do.”
Temus said, his blue lips trembling.
“It looks like he’s still hiding in the family basement, wondering what the future holds for him.”
“What kind of relationship do you have with him?”
“well.”
Raon grinned. He wanted to bring up the story of reincarnation, but Ras was so interested that he couldn’t.
-I really want to learn this torture method. As expected, you are closer to a demon than a human… .
I ignored his nonsense and looked at Temus again.
“Where is your master’s level of power now?”
“I-I don’t know either. It’s clear that he has reached the top, but to what extent… .”
In this situation, not answering meant that you really didn’t know.
‘Well, there’s no way he would reveal his information.’
Derus Robert is an extremely cold-hearted guy. Even if he was a confidant, he couldn’t have told me his level of force or what martial arts he had learned.
“Is it your master’s order that you came here?”
“Oh, no. I’m alone… .”
“Because you were humiliated by my face?”
“Ugh… .”
As expected, it seems that Temus couldn’t bear the situation where his medical skills and reputation were thrust in his face, and rushed at him instead of following Derus’ instructions.
“I’ve roughly heard all the information I need.”
Raon pulled out the Heavenly Sword stuck on Temus’ shoulder.
“Ugh!”
“From now on, you are a prisoner. As soon as I return to Sieghart… .”
“Bwak!”
As they tried to pick Temus up, he vomited blood and had a seizure.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
Blood sprouted all over his face and he let out a scream of more pain than when he was being tortured. The veins burst at the same time and the man’s breath stopped.
“also.”
Raon frowned as he looked at Temus, who had stopped breathing. Contrary to what Temus said, there was a Lazy Worm stuck in its heart.
‘There’s no way I didn’t put it in.’
Derus trusts no one but himself. No matter how much of a henchman he was, it was natural for him to have Lazy Worm.
It was obvious that he sensed Temus’ emotional state and killed him before he could spit out any information.
‘You mean to break the chain.’
Temus actually belongs to Robert, but externally he does not belong to any faction. The reason he was used instead of being added to the family was probably to prepare for something like today.
‘They say he’s a terrible guy’
Raon shook the blood off his sword and turned his head.
‘Still, I’ll still feel the heat.’
a lot.
Although he killed Temus with his own hands, he must be in a very frustrating state because he has no idea why he was in danger of dying or how he died.
‘It’s surprising.’
Because it’s just the beginning.
This is Derus Robert. It was the first step toward revenge against that evil spirit.
‘Stop going back…’ hmm?’
As I was about to return with Temus’ body draped over my shoulder, a message appeared before my eyes.
[You overcame the blood poison yourself.]
[All abilities increase by 1 point.]
[ Poison resistance is created.]
The message was that by withstanding the poison contained in Temus’ blood, his abilities increased and he gained poison resistance.
-uh? Huh?
Lars gaped at the message.
-Well, does it make sense to raise your abilities just because you have endured that much poison?
The guy hit the ground with both hands as if he couldn’t believe anything.
-Such poor poison is found in grass and water in the demon world!
‘This is the human world.’
-Ouch!
Raon clenched his fists as he watched Lars screaming.
‘I should say thank you, right?’
After hearing Derus’ latest information, ruining their plan, and gaining poison resistance, which could be a weakness, it was like killing three birds with one stone.
-Who are you thanking? You should thank me!
* * *
“When did Temus start planning that attack?”
Derus Robert looked at his butler with a faint smile. His expression and mood made it difficult to believe that he had remotely killed one of his favorite confidants just moments ago.
“Well, that…” .”
“Okay. say.”
“It seems like the Yonan family’s plan to become Encia Yonan’s doctor failed. It seems that they blocked the connections and summoned the shadows above the continent to attack Encia Yonan on his way to Pedric.”
The deacon quickly recited everything he had researched.
“So, you’re saying you got hit while trying to somehow make up for a failed plan?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Well, okay. “That’s all well and good, but why did that information come to me only now?”
Derus was still smiling, but the air began to gradually become heavier.
“Connects, branches, factories. Information from everywhere should have come to me first, right?”
“Temus prevented the information from leaking out by lying that it was the master’s order.”
The butler could not look Derus in the eyes and continued talking while looking at the floor.
“Plus, it took a while for the information to come here because only the nearby branches and factories were moved.”
“This is why you shouldn’t give it a try.”
Derus patted the wooden desk and chuckled.
“You think you have escaped the life of a bug just by wearing a hat.”
“Umm… .”
“If you’re going to do it, do it right. Without even knowing the subject, are you planning to attack the carriage guarded by the Great Sword of Heavenly Sword?”
The emotions conveyed in Temus’ Lazy Worm were fear, astonishment, pain, and abandonment. Because it was an expression of emotion that could not survive, it stimulated Lazy Worm and killed it before the information could escape.
“You idiot.”
It’s obvious even without looking. It was clear that she couldn’t bear to see her pride hurt, and when she attacked, the Great Lord of the Heavenly Sword caught her by the collar.
“Sever all ties between Temus and us.”
Temus is officially independent. As long as the link was clearly severed, there would be no need for the identity to be discovered.
“It is in progress.”
The butler immediately nodded. Since I knew Derus’ personality, I started working on it as soon as I learned this information.
“A tool should live like a tool. “You can’t think for yourself.”
“Ah yes… .”
“And the tool shouldn’t move without its owner’s command. “Change all the heads of branches, factories, and connections.”
“Are you saying we should also change places that have nothing to do with this incident?”
“okay.”
“Well, if we add them all, there are more than 100 people… .”
The butler swallowed dry saliva. When Derus said to split, he didn’t just mean to appoint a new person, but to kill everyone.
“Is there some problem?”
My subordinates. Even after giving orders to kill most of the innocent people, Derus’ eyes were calm. So I was even more scared.
“Oh, no!”
“From now on, change the system so that even trivial information comes to me first.”
“All right!”
“one more.”
Derus raised his finger.
“Investigate everyone involved in this matter. Who moved with the Heavenly Sword Master, and who found Sejak? entire.”
“Isn’t that all the work of the Heavenly Sword Master?”
“Maybe so, maybe not. “Econ or the younger members of the Gwangpungdan that went with him could have done it.”
Derus, as he is a picky personality, seemed to want to thoroughly investigate this matter and prepare for the future.
“Let’s go.”
“yes! “We will process it quickly and report back to you.”
The frightened butler quickly lowered his head and left Derus’ office.
Gooooo!
From the moment the butler disappears, the atmosphere in the office changes. An unbearable coldness covered the entire space, as if waves from the North Sea had poured in.
“Hehe.”
Derus’s mouth curls up thinly.
“Are you saying that the plan that took 20 years to prepare has collapsed?”
The plan to devour the Yonan family began 20 years ago.
My stomach boiled over because my perfect plan was ruined because of Sieghardt and the bugling.
I couldn’t imagine how much time and money it would take to restore this.
Pop.
Is it because of the anger that has been revealed for the first time in a long time? Red blood dripped from the wound on the back of his hand and soaked the desk.
“I’ll kill you.”
Derus licked the wound on the back of his hand with his lips, smiling brightly and frighteningly.
“I will rip off every person involved in this matter.”
