Chapter 285
Another few days passed after Cage’s diet was over.
In the meantime, the denomination has not attacked anywhere.
‘Well, it was like this in the game.’
Originally, here the route is divided into two.
In the case of victory and defeat in the war against the denomination.
If you lose a war, one party member dies.
Is that all?
The morale of all mankind on the continent is even lowered.
And aiming for that, the denomination continued to attack other places.
‘If you lose there again, it’s just a bad ending.’
Anyway, since we won the war, the route has nothing to do with me.
Rather than that, you should think about the winning route.
‘Hmm… obviously.’
I don’t know when the exact time is, but I know it’s around this time.
I know that you are clearly dealing with the shade at this time.
So, you will need to stop.
‘If you don’t stop here, you might end up getting annoyed again.’
When I organize my thoughts.
“What do you think so?”
Kejun is working on the paperwork and asking questions.
I answered with a leisurely sip of tea.
“Should I ask that? Do you even know?”
“Don’t you think I’m lazy like you? I don’t have time to think about getting this done. Hey.”
Kejun speaks in a voice full of dissatisfaction.
It certainly seems like there is no time to think about the documents piled up like a mountain.
[The goddess of happiness tells you to work a little too.]
Then, happiness starts to nagging me.
Anyone who sees will know that she is my mother.
I gently ignored the message of happiness and called for Riche, who was standing next to him.
“By the way, Richie.”
“yes. young master.”
“Has there been no movement recently in the Shadow Guild?”
“·················ogue.”
He looked worried about my question and then opened his mouth.
“Ummm… I’ve only been with the master lately, so I don’t know the details, but I’ve heard rumors of an auction house, a masquerade, and an arena.”
“Hmmmm…”
It’s common in the dark.
Wouldn’t those three be the biggest for a guild in the shadows to make a living except for quests in the first place?
Then then.
“Oh, and I heard that a fairly dark magic stone comes out at the auction house. As an added bonus, there is a saying that the movement of the guild leader in the shade is not unusual.”
“·················ogue.”
It’s a dark magic stone…
Read at readwn.com
Maybe Captain Lagann could be used.
However, I care more about the back story than that.
The guild leader in the shadows is none other than the one who completely dominates the shadows.
In a way, he is also a giant.
‘It was also quite strong in the game.’
It was said that such a giant showed unusual movements.
Something smells fishy.
“Then let’s go.”
“I will accompany you.”
Richie goes out to accompany her.
It certainly wouldn’t be a bad idea to take her with her knowledge of the shade.
“Then let’s go just the two of us. If you take the rest, it might attract attention.”
“yes. Let’s do that.”
“hey! I?!”
I could hear Kejun’s dissatisfied voice in my ear, but I must have been mistaken.
“hey! I am this bastard!”
yes. it would be an illusion

shady guild.
Unlike the Adventurer’s Guild, which works in the sun, it is a place where all kinds of dirty work are done.
Assassination is basic, and it is a place where drugs are also made.
If you see this, you should get rid of it right now.
‘In a way, it’s not like that.’
The shadow guild mainly assassinates the villains that cannot be dealt with in the sun.
I don’t assassinate or kill anyone.
After all, they don’t just assassinate.
‘A lot of cool stuff comes out at the auction house they do.’
Therefore, even nobles may participate in a masked ball or auction house while hiding their identity.
‘Well, I do sometimes use the arena with criminals.’
Anyway, this place is like garbage, but it is an undeniable fact that it is a necessary evil.
In fact, if you think of it as a place that disposes of garbage on the continent of Raceton, it makes you feel at ease.
By the way, when are you going to arrive?
“young master. Im here.”
Before thinking, Riche announces that she has arrived at her destination.
I shifted my gaze for a moment.
An ordinary looking building.
From the outside, it looks more like an ordinary bar than a shadow guild.
‘Well, just looking at it from the outside.’
For a moment, he rolled his eyes and looked around.
There are a lot of people drinking and eating in the shop.
Obviously, most of them here are regular customers.
‘Some of them are just assassins.’
Isn’t it too quiet for a normal person, such as breathing, movement, and movement?
“What did you come here for? Guest.”
At that time, the store manager… No. The shadow guild leader Kyle approaches us and asks a question.
To that question, Riche, who hid her identity with cognitive-disrupting magic, answered.
“I found a place to dance after a long time.”
“·····All right. Then this way.”
After hearing Richie’s words, Kyle nodded and took the lead.
Following him we moved on.
not long after that
“You can go down here. David von Kane. Lipod von Riche.”
When Kyle arrived in the room, he nodded his head.
After all, it seems that it was impossible to hide the identity with only awareness-impairing magic, for fear that someone might not be the leader of the guild.
“Since when did you know?”
“Um, I didn’t know it at first, but the moment I heard Richie-sama’s voice, I knew it. The two of them talked about it a few times while they were promoting in the shade.”
Obviously, if Kane had been active in the dark during his crazy days, he would have met Kyle a few times.
I nodded and opened my mouth.
“By the way, you must have known about Riche’s identity.”
“Ah, in fact, the Lipford family once submitted a request to our guild. ask me to find you But.”
“But?”
“In all likelihood, it was Kane-sama who took Richie-sama, so I couldn’t touch her. There is nothing good about going to war with the David family with a single request.”
Well, it’s only natural for the Lipford family to ask the Shadow Guild to find the daughter of the duke.
Now that I’m here, it’s not surprising.
I shifted my gaze to Richie for a moment.
I knew there was going to be a change in her expression, but she had an unexpectedly calm face.
I turned my gaze back to Kyle, then asked.
“Then can we go downstairs?”
“yes. That’s right. Just receive the guild member guide at the door.”
“okay.”
With that said, we went down the stairs.
“·················ogue.”
“·················ogue.”
There was an awkward silence between us for a moment.
Then then.
[The goddess who sees fate asks you to say something. Everyone who sees it seems to be awkward.]
Destiny urges you to speak quickly.
no. I find it awkward too.
Thinking about it, he turned his head.
Soon after, I asked her a question.
“Rishe.”
“yes. young master.”
“Uh, umm… are you okay?”
“·················ogue.”
She remains silent on my questions.
Well, in fact, even though her parents were trash, they are still family.
I’ll have a lot of thoughts.
Let me glance
“Actually, I don’t really care much about my parents anymore.”
“Yes····?”
An unexpected word came out of her mouth.
If I don’t understand, she continues.
“just. I just thought it was surprising.”
“Hmmm…”
It’s meant to be used, but it’s said that they would have poured that much money on it if it was even requested from a guild in the shadows.
Perhaps it would be nothing strange to think of it as a surprise from Richie’s point of view.
Until then, there had been no sign of finding her.
“I was waiting.”
Then, a man appeared in front of us.
Just by looking at his movements, it is clear that he is an assassin.
“I want you to put on this mask before entering.”
I looked at the mask he was giving me.
A mask that looks normal on the outside.
However, as in the game, there will be some durability along with the recognition inhibition magic.
In the first place, it was to hide the identity of the nobleman, so it was natural to grant that level of magic.
We took the mask he gave us and put it on our face.
“Then I will guide you to your room.”
He opens the door and leads him into the room.
Then, after a while, we arrived at our destination.
Soon, after he finished explaining, he was about to leave.
“Then the auction house and the masquerade. I’ll let you know when the arena starts, so wait here…”
“Before that, I have a question for you.”
I cut off his waist.
then asked
“Why is the guild leader doing that over there? Don’t guild members usually do it?”
“Hmm… I can’t tell you in detail, but I know that an important guest is coming. It’s hard to say more than this, so let’s go.”
After saying those words, the guy leaves the room.
‘Leaving me as an important guest…’
I say these things myself, but I’m not going anywhere.
A man chosen by the constellations in the duke’s petty lord.
Looking at this alone, it is safe to say that there are few people who have more authority than me.
However, the situation in which I was entrusted to one guild member.
It could be that he came suddenly and entrusted it to the guild member.
Still, it is an undeniable fact that there is a stinky smell somewhere.
‘I’ll take a look at the map.’
Just in case, I used the map view.
The map view settings have been moved here.
OK.
‘Hmmmm….’
I could see Kyle talking to a man covered in robes from his view.
‘Who is it?’
A situation in which the face is not visible because it is covered with a robe.
I focused on raising the volume as much as possible, thinking that I would try to listen.
next moment.
-Did you come instead of him?
-Yes. He said it was hard to move because he was overworked.
Two voices were heard in my ears.
of course.
– Woongseongwoongseong.
I could also hear the chattering around me.
That was then.
-Hmm… Well, normally, I wouldn’t talk to all of you who broke our promises, but it seems like you’ve shown some sincerity. I saw that he sent an officer who was nothing else.
A hint came out of Kyle’s mouth.
Officer…
In fact, at this point, you will know who you really are, unless you stop eating and eat.
‘Perhaps as I expected, it would be an officer of the church.’
And it’s no different.
-okay. Andrew showed his utmost sincerity.
The man talking to Kyle was none other than a church official.
It seems like it’s been a long time since I’ve played Andrew.
