Chapter 313
A day has passed since the first invasion.
It is natural that war is a temporary truce, but something feels uncomfortable.
There’s no way Andrew, no one else, could stand still like this.
‘Hmm. Even the wiretap didn’t say anything to Crimson.’
Or has an internal division occurred?
For a moment, that thought ran through my mind.
‘no. I don’t think that’s it either.’
I shook my head.
If there had been an internal division, there would have been an indication of that from the wiretapping device that was secretly attached to the Crimson.
And before that in the first place.
‘Sien, whom I planted as a spy, must have told me.’
Sien slapped my hand in the face.
He’s a double spy, hard at work sending me information.
If such a guy had a division inside, he would have reported it immediately.
“Kejun. What do you think?”
“I don’t know either. Can’t you just look at the map?”
“I saw it and it just looked the same as usual.”
I felt so uncomfortable, so I checked the map, but they were only wary of us.
There was no sign of anything moving.
[The goddess who sees fate is said to be suspicious.]
Seeing that fate thinks the same as us, it seems that there is something.
When we are deep in thought.
– Whoops.
The subspace ring rang.
When the ring rings, it means that someone has contacted you.
I took out the communication crystal from the subspace ring.
-It’s me.
Then, Xien, who cowardly slapped my fist in the face, answered.
I quickly got to the point.
“okay. Looking at the contact, it must have been that something had come of it, right?”
-Yes. It’s not exact, but I’ve heard a rumor.
hmmm. It’s a rumor.
Rumors are usually exaggerated, but in a situation like this, it would be better to catch some straw.
I decided to listen first and asked a question.
“okay. Say it quickly.”
– Hmm. You say you can’t see a single top-level demon in the main camp right now.
No one else but the highest level demon is visible.
It’s unusual for the top demon to be invisible, unless it’s known to other guys.
“Keep talking.”
– So I went and asked some guys. But, someone said that he saw a suspicious guy going in that direction.
“What?”
Did you see me coming this way?
If that’s the case, it means that there is a high possibility that the highest level demon has infiltrated this place.
“First. Okay. Then let there be more. Let me know if you have any useful information. ah! By the way, I even dreamed of betrayal…”
– No need to worry. At that moment, I do not know that I am a dead life.
Sien cut off contact with those words.
I act wisely to see if the washing went well.
“Oh yeah. I mean, he’s pitiful too. So why did you touch him as soon as he returned to school?”
At that time, Kejun speaks in a voice that is saddened by the world.
I laughed at his words.
“Whoever sees it will know that he is the victim.”
“Looking at the current situation, he seems like a victim.”
[The goddess who sees fate says that she will not be able to deny it.]
Even fate agrees with Kejun’s words.
I lightly ignored their words and fell into thought.
‘Rather than that, we need to think about the information Xian said.’
If everything he heard is true, then there is a high probability that the suspicious entity is the highest level demon.
In fact, other than that, there is no reason for rumors that one of the top demons has disappeared.
But the problem is.
‘How do you find him?’
Perhaps the top-level demon that disappeared is a guy specialized in stealth.
If it hadn’t been for that in the first place, it wouldn’t have been discovered right away.
‘Let’s start with adjusting the volume.’
I turned the volume control up to the maximum just in case.
At the same time.
– Woongseongwoongseong.
The sound of soldiers talking in my ears.
But, is it because so many people are talking to each other?
‘tt. Even if I beat you to death with this, I won’t be able to find you.’
It seems absurd to find a spy among all these soldiers.
I set the volume control back to medium.
Soon, he closed his eyes and shook his head.
‘Think about it, why did Andrew sneak in?’
Sleeping isn’t bad.
But, is there any reason to make it happen to the highest level demon?
Even if he specializes in stealth, he is a top-level demon.
It means that they are on the same level as the cadres of the denomination.
It would be absurd to let such a person infiltrate only one.
‘Even if the wall is destroyed, it can be restored quickly as long as there are no demons in front of it.’
However, it would be absurd to surprise the executives including me.
No matter how good a surprise attack is, if you come near it, it can detect life at once.
‘Andrew can’t gamble like that now.’
If there is, it could be the assassination of the mummy, whose stamina was consumed quite a bit.
‘I have placed Anje there, so there is no need to worry.’
Andrew would have expected that in the first place.
‘Then what are you really aiming for?’
No matter how much I think about it, nothing comes to mind.
‘Or are you really just trying to destroy the wall like a hogu or assassinate?’
when i think like that
“It’s the body. This is my opinion, is it possible that I am aiming for the Imperial Castle?”
Kejun gives his opinion with a serious face.
Soon, I turned my head to him.
“So. Are you going to terrorize the Hwangseong again?”
“Hmm. Perhaps it is?”
“Why? there?”
“From your point of view, Hwangseong may not be a big deal. But think of the soldiers.”
“·················ogue.”
It is certainly plausible to hear Kejun’s words.
I don’t think there will be much damage if the Hwangseong is attacked.
Because there are few important people there except for the imperial family.
So, I wouldn’t worry too much about it.
‘That is my position to the end.’
From the soldier’s point of view, if Hwangseong was attacked, there would be chaos.
From the point of view of mankind, the yellow star is nothing but a symbol of the continent.
‘Is that so…’
Andrew realized that Mikasa was not in the Imperial Castle through this war.
So, I decided that the top demon could handle it alone, so I sent him there.
‘If this hypothesis is correct…’
I’ve been rolling my head a bit.
I nodded and opened my mouth.
“Also. I am thinking of this.”
“no. I guess…”
“I’m also great.”
“Crazy.”
I accepted Kejun’s compliment and used the map view just in case.
Soon, the point of view was moved to the royal road.

same time.
Baran, called the highest level demon, naturally transformed into a human and was heading towards the Imperial Castle.
Then after a while.
‘Is this where the Continental Emperor is?’
A majestic castle surrounded by strong walls and rising up to break through the clouds.
Obviously, such a place is not a place for anyone other than the emperor to live.
‘Obviously he told me not to be vigilant…’
Andrew said that there was no knight commander on the same level as them in Hwangseong, but nevertheless, do not be vigilant.
A guy stronger than the top demon said that, so we need to be careful.
‘I’ll have to sneak in first.’
With that in mind, I moved as carefully as I could, erasing the signs as much as possible.
next moment.
-puck!
Baran stunned the guard guarding the door.
‘Most of the troops escaped, so I guess that’s true.’
Unless that’s the case, there’s no reason for the guards guarding the door to be stunned with a single stroke of the wrist.
Baran entered the castle while maintaining a barrier.
Within.
‘It was empty.’
Seeing that there were few people in the palace, he raised the corners of his mouth.
‘It will be easier than I thought.’
If there were many soldiers, they would kidnap and infiltrate one, but it doesn’t seem necessary.
It’s so empty that there’s no need for it.
Then then.
– Jerk. jerk.
The sound of footsteps ringing in my ears.
Baran quickly hid out of sight.
OK.
“Um?”
“Why? Deputy Chief.”
The deputy chief turns his head towards this place.
Soon, he narrowed his eyes.
“Hmm. It felt like something was alive.”
“yes? live? I can’t feel anything, can I?”
“Is it my price… Anyway, let’s go report it quickly.”
“yes. Yes.”
After saying those words, the two knights headed to the emperor’s room.
Baran fixed his gaze on the direction of the ones who had just disappeared.
‘I can’t be vigilant as Andrew said.’
He thought he was hiding properly, but there was a guy who sensed his presence.
When I heard the position, it would be about the second person in the Knights Templar.
‘You’d better move carefully.’
With that in mind, Baran moved slowly.
Without knowing that Kane was watching.

Meanwhile at that time.
I was watching the situation with a map view.
“As expected, you infiltrated the Imperial Castle.”
I was proud of my guess.
However, at my words like that, Kejun swears by it.
“no. Because that’s what I did.”
“You are me. So that’s what I did.”
“That bastard only says things like this when it’s like this, damn it.”
Kejun sticks out his mouth in a voice that is bewildered by the world.
I thought, ignoring his words.
‘Who are you sending?’
Once it was confirmed that the highest level demon had infiltrated the Imperial Castle.
Now, who are you sending there?
‘It’s just that there aren’t many people who can get there in time.’
Although the Imperial Castle is in the royal capital, it is quite far away.
There’s no guarantee you’ll get there on time.
‘Although there is an agenda.’
She could be the spleen.
This card is not used here.
‘Should I go?’
when i think like that
“Dad, it’s time to eat.”
Yong-yong came to announce that it was time for lunch.
the moment you see her.
‘ah. I was here!’
Lightning flashed through my mind.
A being who can go to the Imperial Castle faster than anyone else without consuming stamina.
A creature that has been at the top of the pyramid since birth.
If it were her, she would arrive on time.
“Yongyong.”
“yes?”
She tilts her head at my call.
I quickly brought up the subject.
“Go quickly to the Imperial Palace.”
“uh? suddenly?”
“There’s a guy you like over there.”
“yes····?”
Haven’t you said that it wears out in your mouth for a long time?
I want to have a proper fight with the top demon.
Did you finally realize the meaning of my words?
Yong-yong opened his eyes and made an expression that he realized something.
“ah····! no way.”
“Oh, that’s it.”
“OK! Then go right away!”
So shouting, Yong-yong flies towards the Hwangseong with an excited face.
It seems like he’s excited to play after a long time.
“The daughter said she resembles her father. Both are crazy.”
I think Kejun said something from behind, but it must be because of his mood.
