I Am Raising a Daughter in This Life chapter 49

I Am Raising a Daughter in This Life 49

Twist (3)

For me, the unexpected was very rare.

It was my first time raising Rize, so I had no choice but to go through many trials and errors.

But other than that, I’ve rarely experienced anything like that.

… … There were incidents in this life, such as meeting Douglas or meeting Scarlett, but putting that aside.

Didn’t Karga solve all the cases like last time without any problems?

I had no doubt that the Maiden incident would be the same.

It’s about crazy rats. Even if the number increases, that’s all. It didn’t matter much except that the timing was a little delayed.

But please… … I never thought that a person who wasn’t even a monster would do something like this.

Kwadeuk!

“What are you?”

“Hey, heck… … !”

That’s why I’ve never been so angry… … It’s been a really long time.

Immediately after intuition that the operation had failed, he threw himself away. To the roof with this goddamn trash wizard.

The guy was holding his neck tightly, so he couldn’t say anything, but he didn’t care.

Because I wasn’t expecting an answer anyway.

Have you just turned twenty?

Judging by the power of the fireball he fired earlier, it seemed that he was quite confident in his skills.

Perhaps it was his intention to raise his ransom by solving this case in a cool way. Fame was everything on this floor.

Anyway, that’s all. I don’t remember this guy’s face, so it was obvious even if I didn’t see it after that.

“Are you from the Magic Tower? Or are you a noble? no, that can’t be Aren’t you the one who jumped in to become a mercenary? Do you think you’re proud of yourself for doing some magic, you kid? Bastards like you are all over the place.”

“Big, small, hands! Kkeuk… … !”

He tried to free my hand somehow, but it couldn’t be done.

As I didn’t say anything more and just kept holding my neck tightly, his eyes began to show the whites.

Do you really want to kill me?

I ruined things by touching something that could have been done without incident. Even though the mercenaries stronger than this guy were quietly following Douglas’s instructions.

He even put Rize in danger, so there was no reason to look at him.

“Don’t go there.”

At the moment I heard Douglas’ voice, I threw him away as if I was throwing him.

No matter how much I wanted to kill him, the value of this guy was not high enough to ignore Douglas’s words. I kicked the chest of the guy who was lying on his face and exposed his face.

Then, as I pressed my body with my feet, the guy struggled and desperately poured out words.

“Sin, sorry! I, I just step out… … !”

“shut up.”

He hurriedly shut his mouth, and I lowered my head and left a word as if growling.

“I remember your face clearly.”

With that, he turned his attention away from him and turned to Douglas.

Douglas was also glaring at him like he was angry, but he held it in and turned his gaze back to me.

I was about to say something right away, but I thought I’d say something harsh again, so I took a bottle out of my bag and put a pill in my mouth.

“What is that?”

“It’s good to eat when the blood is gushing backwards like now.”

“Can you give me one too?”

“It is poison.”

Douglas frowned at my answer, but gave me one because he didn’t withdraw his outstretched hand.

It is eaten to develop a tolerance for poison, so the poison is not very strong, so if Douglas eats it, there will be no problem. I also mixed in some healthy herbs.

I felt the excitement subside calmly as a sharp aura circulated through my body.

As if Douglas was in a similar mood, the energy he had been exuding faded.

“How is the situation?”

“Very bad. That bastard threw a fireball into the middle perfectly, and the rats scattered. As you said, the area around the plaza is blocked off, but it’s meaningless now.”

It was now close to impossible to bring the once scattered rats back together.

“First of all, the mercenaries are moving in groups and are notifying the residents not to come out together. At the same time, I used to deal with the rats that I see, but… … How effective will it really be?”

“Now that things have gone awry, we have to be prepared for a long-term battle. There’s no way they’ll stay quiet until then.”

Right now, they are still wandering around in small groups, but once they smell the inside of the building, it will get out of hand.

No matter how much a rat turned into a monster was no big deal, it was too much for a normal person to deal with.

In addition, there was no guarantee that it would be possible to clean up perfectly because there were so many scattered numbers.

Even if it was really twisted, it was tightly twisted.

As I was thinking about how to solve it, Douglas, who was also deep in thought, opened his mouth again.

“Hey, are you planning on cleaning this place up perfectly?”

I knew what Douglas meant by the question.

From noble mtl dot com

It wasn’t me, Douglas, or a mercenary belonging to Maiden, and I just came across the case by chance while on my way to another request.

Since that request was also a race against time, there was no reason to be more bound to this place.

Still, since I was in the position of staying overnight, I tried to solve the situation, but even if I failed in the end, no one would say anything.

but… … .

“I’m sorry, but you can leave first. It looks like I’ll be spending a lot of time on this side, so don’t bother waiting for me. In the meantime, please take good care of Rize.”

“Should I? We’ll just leave the rest to the mercenaries here, though?”

I laughed for no reason at Douglas’ words, which contained the thought that he would not use his hands any longer.

“You can’t just shout in front of Rize and end it like this. How would Rize look at me if I turned around without even tying the knot?”

“Well, with people… … .”

Although he said it as if it were absurd, Douglas didn’t seem to understand at all.

It wasn’t something sharp, but there was nothing that couldn’t be solved by pushing it with manpower.

It is to blockade the area and slowly narrow the encirclement to deal with it.

If the residents were evacuated from the center before the rats began their full-scale activities, the damage would be less.

I was worried about Arandura, but they will do just fine without me.

Douglas would do well, handed over all the safety measures to Rize, and explained it to Irina in detail.

chin.

At that moment, as if reading my thoughts, Irina climbed up the roof with steel gauntlets.

“Huh, why are you here… … . Are you that guy?”

Irina, who was grumbling, narrowed her eyes when she found the young wizard who was still babbling here.

No, why is he here?

“You didn’t bring Rize with you, did you?”

“The lady is keeping what Irvin said. I just came because I asked Irvin to help.”

Even just listening to it, it was truly extraordinary.

Feeling moved, he waved his hand at Irina and issued a congratulatory order.

“I’m just screwed up right now with no help. Go and comfort Rizena. I guess I have to finish here and go.”

“They asked me to deliver this.”

Irina held out a small plate to me, ignoring my words. It was a noise generating magic tool that I had given to Rize the other day.

I was puzzled, but I accepted it for now, and I was surprised when I looked inside, wondering what meaning Rize asked for it.

“Did Rize do this?!”

“Yes, it seemed like he was touching something, but what happened?”

“No, that’s what I want to ask.”

This magic tool I made had a really simple structure. When mana was injected, it was just converting it into a loud sound.

Even so, it was impossible to create without knowledge of magic and magic circuits.

But Rize didn’t just figure out the structure… … It was even directly transformed.

The workmanship was clumsy, but it was clear that with a little more work it would work perfectly as intended.

Rize added direction and range to a circuit that simply produced sound. In the form of spreading more widely towards the lower place.

When I briefly explained it, Irina also made a surprised expression, and Douglas couldn’t hide his astonished expression.

“Huh, the more you know, the more talented you become. So you’re saying it’s possible to attract rats?”

“It’s interesting enough that you won’t be able to completely pull it in. Still, it’ll come in handy when you’re trying to get those out of hiding.”

“so… … You gave me this too.”

As if waiting for those words, Irina took out another object this time and held it out.

“No, really… … .”

How much longer did Rize intend to surprise me?

As I was admiring it, Douglas, not knowing what had happened, impatiently asked.

“What is that again?”

“It’s a monster lure.”

It was made based on the excretions of carnivorous plant monsters to attract monsters sensitive to smell, so it was able to attract rats.

If only this had been there, I wouldn’t have been so surprised.

Inside was a thin, tough bundle of string given to Irina to tie herself up when entering the forest.

It was just amazing to see them put together with a clear usage in mind.

Douglas also made a surprised expression as if he realized that, and I naturally smiled as I thought of Rize.

“Irina, go back to Rize right away. Tell Dad that he really appreciates you.”

“all right.”

I looked at Irina, who jumped right away, for a moment, then turned her head and saw the wizard with a blank expression as if she had let go of everything.

“There’s a kid.”

“Uh, uh, yes?”

Still, I was glad I had the spirit to answer.

I had to do what I couldn’t do, but it was difficult if I wasn’t sane.

“Do you want to make up for the mistake you made earlier?”

At my words, the boy’s eyes slowly returned to life.

* * *

Me and Douglas climbed on top of the tallest building near the plaza and looked down.

“Hoho, you really are gathering.”

“Shall I make one for you? It will also work to attract wildlife.”

“No, it’s fine. I hate waiting.”

In the alley we were looking at, the rats scattered around were slowly gathering in one place.

There, the string with the lure was untied, and the same string was scattered not only there, but also in every nook and cranny of the other alleys.

But that alone wasn’t enough.

Boo woo woo!

Shortly thereafter, a low sound spread across the ground, and more rats reacted and went in the direction of the sound, attracted by the lure.

And the nuisance wizard, who had tied the strings fed with the lure, began to run.

Accordingly, the rats also started running along the direction of In-je, and soon after, the rats gathered in pitch black moved along the main road.

The wizard clearly showed me what I was like before and went into the plaza, and at the same time, those who were waiting blocked the passage and began to subdue the mad rats.

The effect was obvious, so there seemed to be nothing more to see.

The rest was all about repeating all over Maiden. I’ve done it this far, but I’ll figure it out on my own.

“The Maiden branch manager will take care of a lot. Please, please help me. I apologized, so I won’t be able to just let it go.”

“I’d like to ask you to make a plaque of appreciation for Rize.”

“hahahaha, if it wasn’t for Rize, it must have been much more difficult. Would you like an honorary mercenary plaque?”

“If you give me something like that, I don’t think he will say that he will become a mercenary.”

After seeing Douglas twitching his nose in regret, he soon prepared to go downstairs.

“Let’s meet and talk. There is something I want to ask the branch manager about.”

“Hmm, what do you mean?”

As I opened my mouth to answer, someone’s voice came from below.

“Success!”

It was the appearance of the Maiden branch manager who seemed to know that he was talking about himself.

We stopped going down and waited for a while, and soon a skinny middle-aged man came up panting. It was clear that if I left him alone, he would talk nonsense, so I spoke first before he could catch his breath.

“There is something I want to ask you.”

“Ha ha ha ha ha ha what… … .”

As I watched from above, I naturally came up with a plausible guess following the curiosity I had in the beginning.

I handed over the question to the branch manager to confirm it.

“By any chance, did anyone go into the sewer side today with a request?”
