chapter 2
‘… What happened?’
He opened his mouth and rubbed his eyes at the shocking sight.
Looking back, Lars was fine without a single wound.
He just looked at me with a puzzled face. Damian’s eyes met.
His red eyes flashed eerily.
‘Everything I just saw was an illusion… ? I’m sure there won’t be an air gap… . No way, just by killing… ?’
I was horrified inside.
Apparently, the illusions I saw were influenced by Damian’s killing spirit.
It is said that the will to kill that has reached a state of realization is sharper than a sharp sword.
He was exactly expressing his intent to kill only me right here.
It was enough to destroy cognition simply by exuding life.
I realized once again how much of a monster he was.
I thought that Damian’s murderous behavior might be a warning that if you act foolishly, you can kill everyone in this place, including the hero.
Even though I knew that my energy hadn’t returned yet, it seemed like that monster could make my imagination a reality.
I was almost bored
―Stillness flowed.
“… … .”
At my shocking remark, no one present could bear to open their mouths.
okay. You must be embarrassed. The stutterer who couldn’t even express his opinion properly had an accident.
It was very refreshing to know how Abel Croy had been treated so far.
Lars, who laughed as if he was dumbfounded, immediately glared at me with a murderous look.
Maybe it was because he had just tasted the life of Damian, no, Socheonma.
The killing spree of him, who is known as a warrior, felt like child’s play.
“Hey, monster. Are you crazy… ?”
Slugs, monsters, stutterers.
All of these were names that called me.
Just by looking at this, it was possible to know what position Abel Croy was in the party.
In fact, it was safe to say that he was in the same position as Damian, the porter.
Nevertheless, during the story, Abel bullied Damian because he wanted to feel superior because he was different.
In the end, from the standpoint of the warrior party, Abel, or Damian, it was no different from garbage.
‘That’s why I’m also on the Killing Club.’
Everyone’s eyes turned to me. Rather, I spoke confidently, as if enjoying that gaze.
“Yeah, crazy. This baby. So, I’m going to hit the party. You guys wanted me to go anyway, didn’t you? is not it?”
Lars, who burst into laughter as if he had collapsed, jumped out of his seat and stood up.
“Ha, I don’t know what this useless monster bastard believes in and messes with like this? I asked if you would like to come these days, do you think you can do anything? Don’t be mistaken. You are just a tool to throw away. No matter how much you struggle and try, nothing will change. You trash bastard.”
It’s a new feeling, but this blonde spiky-haired bastard had nothing to look at except for his filthy handsome appearance and being a warrior.
How did it create such waste, I set it up, but it was really f*cked up.
Lars, very angry, shouted and shoved my shoulder.
“So in front of me… .”
Took.
The mask that covered half of his face fell to the floor.
Lars, who saw this, made an exaggerated gesture and pretended to vomit.
“Wow! look at that razor How did humans look like that? I’m disgusted to death every time I see it. hey! Try on that mask first!”
The party who had been looking at me until just now turned their heads at once with disgusted expressions on their faces.
The only one looking at me was the porter, Damian.
“… … .”
I bent down and picked up the mask that had fallen to the floor.
Perhaps because he was possessed by Abel’s body, he felt the humiliation and emotions he had been subjected to so vividly.
A murderous intent welled up from the depths of his heart, but he knew full well that now was not the time.
‘Let’s wait. Let’s be patient. Today is the last day anyway.’
At that time, Teresa, the leader of the knights, opened her mouth.
“Stop it. Sir Lars.”
Lars glared at Theresa, who spoke in his characteristic cold tone.
“what? Who are you to do this to me?”
“Rather than aggravate the situation here, wouldn’t it be better to listen to Abel first and make a decision?”
“Then what are you to me… .”
When the atmosphere was unusual, the saintess Leah clung to Lars and trembled with her arms crossed.
“Warrior. First of all, how about doing what Teresa said?”
When his soft chest touched his arm, Lars instantly regained his composure.
“… Big hum. okay. I guess I’m a little excited.”
Even while he was talking, he kept groping for Lia’s thighs, and Lia, who was blushing, exhaled lightly and whispered quietly.
“ha… . As the leader of the party, the hero only showed a legitimate response~ And if that idiot leaves the party anyway, all the credit will be ours, right?”
Because I had strengthened my body earlier, I could hear even whispers very clearly.
“yes. As expected, the only one who understands me is Leah.”
very good asshole.
I don’t even know what identity is. The face of Lars, who would be shocked to learn the identity of that b*tch in the not-too-distant future, was drawn on his head.
“okay. Abel. You want to leave our party? good. Instead, you said you went voluntarily, so I can’t give you any reward or credit.”
I didn’t even want that in the first place.
“I have a request for you.”
Lars replied nervously.
“what?”
“As you said, I’m leaving voluntarily, so I don’t have to accept anything. Instead, I’d like to give a portion of my share to Damian. Can you do that much?”
Damian looked at me with a surprised face.
Due to the nature of Cheonakcheon (天惡天), he must be genuinely interested in me now, not acting.
I continued talking calmly, ignoring his gaze.
“It doesn’t mean anything. It may seem hypocritical, but I hoped that the person who secretly worked the hardest at our party would be rewarded a little more.”
This time, Lin asked. It was like looking at an insect.
“under! suffer the most? What the hell did that person do to say that he suffered the most? Do you want to come here and pretend to be nice?”
“Each time carrying that much load… .”
Rin interrupted before he could finish his sentence.
“Is it hard for a porter to carry luggage? Isn’t that what a porter should do? No, isn’t it a normal way of thinking to think of it as an honor to join the warriors’ party to save mankind and be able to act as a porter? Anyway, lowly things wrap around each other. I don’t know the subject or grace. I am so disgusted that I am going to die.”
“… You probably don’t know what I mean. You probably know best how we’ve treated Damian in the meantime. Lynn.”
A red haze shimmered all over Rin’s body.
“If you call my name with that filthy mouth just once, I will burn it to ashes.”
Damian, who was observing the situation, exclaimed urgently.
“Oh, Abel! Lin! I’m really fine. It’s just because of me… .”
“shut up. How dare you interfere with the porter subject!”
“… Sin, sorry.”
Lynn glared at me and said.
“Don’t be presumptuous and get out of here right away. Because I don’t want to see that disgusting face.”
Theresa’s cold gaze turned to me.
“Abel, I understand what you mean. But you talk as if we bullied Damian. Did I understand correctly?”
“What do you ask when you know everything? Teresa. Are you saying you didn’t participate? That’s what hypocrisy is. You just watched while the others treated Damian as less than livestock. You and I, who knew but pretended not to see, are all the same.”
Theresa shouted, blushing in embarrassment.
“That, that… !”
Leah said with a sneer.
“Theresa. There is no need to be swayed by useless words. When the party is out anyway, it’s just that he can’t win against himself and acts lowly to hurt the party. People like that shouldn’t have been accepted into the party in the first place. How can you risk your life on the battlefield with a dark, selfish, and completely unknown human being?”
I raised the corners of my mouth and murmured softly.
“What do you mean, a b*tch who is crazy about being a hero?”
“What, what? Woah, welcome? Saying that to me now… .”
Oh, did you hear me? sorry if you heard
I ignored her, who had stuttered from the shock, and continued talking.
“I mean, this is the end. As of this time, I’m leaving this crappy party, so I hope you honor my last request. If even that is not followed… .”
He took out a transparent crystal ball from his bosom.
“I will make this public.”
“… A memory crystal?”
“In this crystal ball, every trip so far is recorded. Of course, even the things we did to Damian.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lars’ hand went to the scabbard.
“How dare you… .”
Outright murderous intent.
The bastard, known as a hero, had been thinking about killing and destroying people.
But before his sword could be drawn, I spoke first.
“Don’t even think about doing anything stupid. Do you think I brought up this without any countermeasures?”
Yes.
In fact, it is correct to bring this up without any countermeasures.
“The transfer to the recording device has already been completed.”
Yes.
Of course, that’s a lie.
All that was contained in this crystal ball was a video of Rin and Theresa washing or changing clothes. It just contains Abel Croy’s ugly desire.
‘… If this fact is revealed, I will die in one way or another.’
“I promise you that this video will never be released if you will do my favor.”
Lars let go of the handle of his sword, glaring at him to death.
“you. You will definitely regret today.”
“you also.”
Seriously.
Leave it, leave it, it will make you regret it.
I have never forgotten what they did to Abel.
‘Look forward to it.’
I went out of the inn ignoring the intense gaze.
When the tension was released, the body lost strength.
“… I didn’t know it would work.”
After looking around for a while, I quickly left the village.
The first reason was that I didn’t want to stay here any longer, and the second reason was that my next destination had already been decided.
‘First of all, I prevented Damian from being expelled from the warrior party. Maybe a little bit, but it’ll buy me time.’
According to the original flow, it was Damian, not me, who would be banished.
Expelled from the warrior’s party, Damian does not receive any compensation, but instead enters the academy thanks to Teresa’s consideration.
‘… That’s when it started in earnest.’
After entering the academy, Damian recovers his original power in earnest and begins to build his own power.
In order to stop it, I needed to increase my own strength and power.
To do that, I also inevitably have to enter the academy.
However, my status was already widely known, so I couldn’t take the entrance exam through the usual route.
That’s why I chose… .
“I guess that’s about it.”
It ran non-stop for about 30 minutes with the acceleration magic applied in layers.
I had guessed the location to some extent, but since it was my first trip, I got lost several times.
It probably would have taken longer without the detection magic.
After walking a little through the dense trees, a cave that exuded a gloomy energy appeared at a glance.
The entrance was blocked by a huge rock, and an unknown pattern of unknown meaning was engraved on it.
“found.”
Approaching the rock, I put my palms together and muttered.
“Andromalius.”
The black energy extending from the fingertips covered the rock, and after a while the entrance opened with a creaking sound.
The thick darkness beckoned him as if to be hugged. Without hesitation, I walked towards the inside.
that buck that buck
Every time I took a step, a fishy smell stung my nostrils.
A thick, unknown liquid was sticking to the floor.
“Lighten my footsteps in pitch-black darkness. Light.”
Swallow.
I couldn’t get used to this feeling of shame every time I cast a spell.
A sphere of bright light formed in front of my eyes.
“… It’s terrible.”
A chunk of meat that has been damaged beyond recognition.
The tangled pale pink intestines and blood dripping flesh.
Arms and legs divided in countless equal parts, like ball-jointed dolls scattered around.
and white bones.
When I saw these, I thought I had come to the right place.
“72 denominations.”
-It was then.
“Who are you?”
I didn’t even feel popular.
A man wearing an owl’s skin over his face appeared.
Beside him, dozens of people wearing black robes began to surround me.
An obvious murderous intent.
It was clear that if he did anything stupid, he would kill him right away. No, since I came here in the first place, I wouldn’t have the heart to let me live.
That’s why I shouldn’t have been more flustered. Did they say that even if you enter the tiger’s den, you will live as long as you wake up?
“Are you not going to answer me?”
gulp.
The neck brace moved.
I slowly took off the mask I was wearing. The original hideous face was revealed.
“… … .”
I burst the head of the nearest believer and spoke softly.
“It’s disappointing.”
After a moment of silence, everyone around them bowed their heads to the floor and shouted in unison.
“Meet the Apostle of the Most High!”
I will impersonate a tiger from now on.
