13. I’m usually good at flying things
Lokter exclaimed his fangs, furious.
“Zobart! How dare you betray me?”
At that, Joe Barton, who had been hiding in the dark, appeared.
“Betrayal? That’s absurd. Did you think I wouldn’t know that you decided to kill me after all?”
Locter’s eyes flashed.
“I was going to kill you gracefully. But now, don’t ask for mercy like that!”
“I thought you knew how to say ‘I’m a kid and thank you’ if you kill me gracefully. Don’t f*ck with me, you devilish bastard!”
“Hmph. It won’t take long for you to realize you’re in the wrong line.”
Locter’s gaze returned to me.
“You think this is all? You’re welcome!”
at that time.
A great number of footsteps could be heard from outside.
“Looks like you’ve already arrived. On this late night, not anywhere else, but right here in Oryton’s underworld! You dared to touch me. Whoa. You looked down on me too.”
At the same time, a smile crept across Lokter’s lips.
“Even if you regret it, it’s too late. You’ll feel that you touched the beehive by mistake!”
Of course I snorted.
My third eye was already feeling them long before Locter felt them.
For those of a much higher level than me, like Andrew, it would have been difficult to grasp their skills just by the sound of their footsteps…
Those outside were just ragtags.
“Diaz.”
“Yes.”
“Door, block it. I’ll take care of this.”
“All right.”
It was Diaz who answered so plainly.
A look of bewilderment appeared on Lokter’s face.
“Don’t talk nonsense! It’s impossible to deal with that many guys alone…”
However, Rokter soon had to realize that his judgment was wrong.
It was because a commotion mixed with screams began to be heard.
“What are you? Don’t get out of the way?
“What are you doing in front of me! You’re the only one!”
“Ah! My hand…!”
“Don’t f*cking push! Don’t push!”
“Crazy! Does this make sense! Only one person…!”
Realizing that the situation behind him was not good, Lokter drew his sword and aimed it at me.
“Even the author won’t be able to block the entrance alone forever! Eventually, it will break through!”
That was right.
This house is not a fortress.
Perhaps because of Joe Barton’s caution, the windows are also high, so it might be difficult to get in easily.
It wasn’t like he couldn’t come in forever.
I nodded to him.
“Thanks for the advice. Then, following that advice, I’ll have to pierce you first before I can pierce you.”
“Huh! I guess he believes in a useful subordinate. He won’t have the energy to help you. Time is on my side, and this shadowy environment is on my side too!”
“Yeah. I’ve heard something similar. Didn’t a mutt eat half of it in his front yard?”
“This bastard!”
Certainly, Lokter was a man from the underworld.
Throwing memorization at the same time as running in.
Even that was not enough, so I even scattered sand in my arms.
Shu Shu Shuk! Chow!
It was probably a method that was used quite often.
It’s a very natural connection when you look at it.
I swung my right arm holding the sword and punched out the memorized words.
In the meantime, Lokter was approaching right in front of me.
Of course I wasn’t surprised.
Because it was not at a level that exceeded the ability of the third eye.
I clenched the fist of my left hand for a counterattack.
Whoops!
A golden aura wrapped around his left arm.
I immediately felt a surge of power.
It was the first time in my life that energy had accumulated in my arms with such a sense of weight.
It wasn’t a bad feeling.
“die!”
Lokter hides behind a grain of sand and attacks.
I look straight at him
He swung the giant god’s left arm.
Fain!
Lightly, your left arm sliced through the air.
aaagh!
It hit Lokter’s chin precisely.
I’ve never heard of such a thing.
I have a feeling in my hand.
I felt it desperately.
Lokter, a giant two-meter tall, flew at an unbelievable speed.
Wow! bang! bang! Wow!
I pierced the wall, and then I pierced the wall next to it, and I pierced the wall next to it.
Then he completely disappeared from my sight.
Naturally, Lokter’s subordinates, who witnessed the scene before their eyes…
“……”
“……”
“……”
All of them stopped, forgetting to breathe.
There was a huge hole in the wall where anyone could pounce on me, but no one moved.
Slightly confident, I took a step forward.
“next.”
The answer I hear is…
There was no

After that.
I quietly summoned Mayor Lofencer right away.
to get everything done.
It wasn’t that difficult to seduce him.
It was as simple as leaving the password he had heard through Joe Barton in the letter.
[The parchment falls into my hand. Fourth house, come alone.]
fourth house.
It was said to mean the residence of Joe Barton.
And indeed, Mayor Lofencer showed up as soon as he received the letter.
“It must have been a pretty intense fight.”
Mayor Lofencer looked around Joe Barton’s house, which had been destroyed.
He entered slowly, staring at me with sharp eyes I hadn’t seen before.
“Rocter…”
“dead.”
“Haha. That’s amazing. That Lokter, in just one night… He’s a guy who competed with most knights without any skill.”
“It must have been a low-level article.”
“Well, looking at it through Rohan’s eyes, I think I underestimated you too much. From brute force to intellect. You seem to have it all. You surprise people in many ways.”
Mayor Lofencer took out a letter from me from his bosom.
“How else did you find out about this parchment? I thought you were hiding it well and proceeding.”
“Well. It wasn’t difficult, let’s just leave it at that level.”
“Whoops. I didn’t expect you to tell me… To be honest, it’s more than I expected.”
He brushed the wall with his hand and came closer.
“That intelligence. From Joe Barton to Locter. It seems you already knew it before you came to this city. You knew everything before you came to the city…”
got the answer right at once.
But I answered silently.
Surely, is it because he is a person who can be the mayor of a city?
It was unusual.
“Okay…then, can I ask the reason you called me here, leaving Saddam here?”
I took the parchment out of my pocket.
The unique skill was already in my hands, so it was just a piece of paper now, but it looked the same to everyone except me.
And that seemed to be the case with Mayor Lofenser.
For the first time I saw his eyes twinkle.
“No way… have you already broken the seal?”
“I solved it.”
“Hasn’t it already been used by someone else?”
“I was still holding it.”
Mayor Lofencer nodded.
If you knew about the Seven Knights, there was no way you wouldn’t know.
The moment you join the Seven Knights, you will receive power.
Of course, you can only have one unique skill…
There was no choice but to come up with the calculation in his head that I had stolen his unique skill.
“What do you want?”
“What do you think I would like?”
“Well, I don’t have a very deep relationship with Rohan either. I’m confused. Money? Isn’t it money?”
Mayor Lofencer continued with a confident face.
From his point of view, it would seem that all I wanted was money.
You already have the authority, what more could you want?
But even if it was wrong, it was a very wrong calculation.
“I’ll give you 80% of the compensation I was supposed to receive. You will never feel it’s small. Please accept it as a way to ask for your kindness in the future.”
But I wasn’t interested.
It was because the sound of his heart had changed minutely.
‘It seems obvious. That lie.’
In a quiet environment, if you intensely raise your concentration from an ultra-short distance, you can detect even such a speckle-like change.
It was the power of the Third Eye.
In the game, it only raised the evasion rate, but in reality it was definitely useful in many ways.
‘Where are you going to hit me in the back of the head?’
It wasn’t that he was short of money right away, and that parchment was no longer something he could sell.
Because it was just an empty shell.
In addition, even if money was really urgent, there was nothing to gain from trading with such a person.
In fact, even Joe Barton was hit in the back of the head.

Just as expected.
Even around here, I could feel a few signs moving stealthily.
“Looking at your smile, you seem to like it. You made a good choice. If you hand over that, I promise, I’ll keep it.”
That statement was also false.
At the same time as the statement that he would keep his promise came out, he heard the sound of the guys outside pulling out their swords.
If you pretend, you pretend.
‘Kill Lokter, kill me too. After all, I guess I was meant to eat it all by myself…’
I was dumbfounded, so I laughed.
“How does it not go beyond expectations?”
“……? What are you saying all of a sudden?”
I quickly answered with my left hand, pulling out the dagger in my bosom.
“This is what you say.”
Then he threw it right at the wall.

Joe Barton’s house was made of wood.
Of course, the walls were also wooden planks.
The strength of the Colossus’ left arm was not even an obstacle to that level of wall.
The dagger pierced through the wall and pierced Mayor Lofencer’s men who were stealthily approaching.
Poo-wook.
“Ke, Kkeek!”
Screams of bewilderment rang out from outside.
Mayor Lofencer also frowned and was quite surprised.
“Ahhhh!
“It’s a pity. I already sold your hair. Do you think it will be difficult to deal with you?”
“Whoops. Did you really expect that? If you obey me, I was going to kill you painlessly in a gentlemanly way… but you blew the opportunity.”
“I’m usually good at flying things.
“Is that so? Have you ever tried it? Guys! Kill!”
At his command, assassins in black jumped out from all sides.
It seemed that he had made up his mind and prepared.
Of course, I also made up my mind and prepared every single thing.
The third eye and the giant god’s left arm form a fantastic collaboration.
kang! Kagagak!
It blocked memorization and blades with tremendous speed.
And as for the attack, the space slash of the long sword held in the right hand demonstrated its power.
squeak.
I could feel the feeling of wearing armor under the black suit, but…
“How about it?”
It was not enough to block my attack.
That’s how I was going to knock down the assassins one by one.
“Damn it…!”
Realizing that the situation was going badly, Mayor Lofencer seemed to hesitate and back down.
eventually ended up running away.
However, I did not pursue him.
Knowing that, I prepared an ambush.

Joe Barton, who was hiding in the ceiling, spread his arms and threw himself, snatching Mayor Lofencer.
Kudangtangtang!
“Ugh!”
“Lofenser uh uh uh!”

Joe Barton’s and Mayor Lofencer’s bodies tangled and rolled in a mess.
However, Joe Barton, who had spent 8 years as a spy, was different.
In the midst of the frenzy, he took the exact mount position and aimed the dagger at the heart of Mayor Law Fencer, who did not know when he had taken it out.
Meanwhile, Mayor Lofencer, who was laid on the floor and had a knife on his throat, showed panic for the first time.
He held onto the wrist of Joe Barton, who was desperately trying to stab him.
Even if the lives of the citizens who were sacrificed were not precious, it seemed that my own life was precious.
“Now, wait! Me, if you kill me, Viscount Morden won’t stand still! That, and the soldiers outside…”
Before Mayor Lofencer could finish talking, Diaz opened the door and came in.
“The rest of the enlisted men have also been dealt with.”
I nodded.
“……!”

Joe Barton howled as he looked at Mayor Lofencer, who was completely white.
“This bastard is worse than the devil! The souls of 59 people who died because of you will be waiting in hell! Send them away right now!”
“Mmm, stop! You dare to know who I am! Don’t compare me to those worthless sacrificial bastards! You must obey my orders…!”
Fu-wook!

Joe Barton’s sword had no patience.
“Kkeok! Kkeok…save, save…I don’t want to die…don’t…”
You don’t have to be born as a demon to be a demon.
Even those who became demons themselves, like Lokter, looked like demons to me.

“Whoa! Whoa!”
After 8 years of resentment, Joe Barton stood up from his seat with a heavy breath.
And for a while I looked down at Lofencer Market.
“Whoa… whoa…”
After giving Joe Barton time to calm down, I burned the parchment in my hand with a candle.
Roaring!

Joe Barton and Diaz’s eyes widened when they saw this.
I looked at them and said
“Excessive greed only invites anger.”
It was perfect.
Now, no one would think that I had acquired a unique skill that was sealed in that parchment.
Because everyone didn’t know what unique skills were in there.
In addition, he released the victims’ grudges and prevented Joe Barton from becoming a villain.
Wouldn’t that level of qualification be sufficient?
Diaz smiled and said nothing.
“……”

Joe Barton shook his head.
“You’re a much bigger person than I thought. In many ways… Thank you!”
“Can you take care of the aftermath?”
“Of course. Don’t worry.”
He took a deep breath and spoke.
“Even though I was a spy…I am the only one left in the underworld’s executive level. So I will eat the underworld and reorganize it properly. I will show you an appearance worthy of the grace bestowed on you.”
“……”
“And! I will never forget you. I will repay you someday.”
“Sure.”
I slipped out of Joe Barton’s house with a small smile on my face.
Diaz followed me.
“Are you going to the capital now?”
“It should be.”
Siporeo, the capital.
Diaz and I headed towards it.
There was also a letter requested by the Bishop of Heint, but I also had a question.
‘Paladin character. Will there be?’
Are there any other playable characters besides me?
It was a chance to go and check it out for yourself.
And if you don’t have a paladin character…
‘The ring of black thunder… can I have it?’
If it was this [Left arm of the Giant Goddess], it seemed possible.
maybe.
after a few days like that.
Diaz and I stepped into Ciphoreo.
