122 – True Education (2)
“Uh~ Captain~”
From noble mtl dot com
“Has Captain Ceylon come?”
Hound agents welcomed Ceylon.
They created and gave him the position of ‘captain’ of the hunting dog unit, which did not exist so that Ceylon could feel a special sense of belonging to the hunting dog.
Of course, it was a formal position.
“Does our captain know how to drink?”
“Tteng! What do you think of our captain! Of course I know!”
“Chief, would you like to come and have a drink together?”
However, as Ceylon accompanied them on their mission, and the hounds’ attitude naturally changed as they achieved remarkable results over the past week, exceeding the year of the hounds.
Now they respected Ceylon wholeheartedly.
Even if he’s not even the captain, he’s an excellent colleague and the youngest he cares about.
“You don’t know how to drink-“
Ceylon was not a drinker.
“Such a rude question! Even if it looks like that, alcohol is quite strong, right?”
But I felt like I could enjoy it today.
Ceylon looked at the bottle with a meaningful expression.
“Big~ too~”
“Yeah~ Our captain~”
“Now, then, where should we go and get a drink, Captain?”
The time when Ceylon raised the cup.
“No~ No. 348~”
Cynia hugged Ceylon’s arm.
“Don’t teach our diligent number 348 strange things~”
“No, Mr. Sinia. It’s strange. Isn’t it alcohol? Alcohol.”
“Why do people say there are people who don’t drink?”
“Those religious families will drink too.”
“Actually, Mr. Sinia also drinks well.”
“Really~ Then, number 348~ I’ll pour it for you~ I’ll pour it just right for you, so you can drink it safely~?”
Ceylon laughed heartily as he poured himself a drink from Sinia.
“Hey~ This, followed by the sword and even alcohol! How can I, it seems like I’m learning all the bad things from Instructor Sinia~? This is the bad adult I’ve only heard about!?”
“What?”
“Keuk ke ke ke ke ke, you ate a room properly.
Laughter did not stop in the hideout.
how long will it be
Laughter flows in this desolate place tired of revenge without progress.
A sincere smile spread across Sinia’s face, like the other hound agents.
“…”
Even then, her expression hardened awkwardly.
Suddenly, what Ceylon said just now comes to mind.
-Hey~ This, the sword and then the alcohol! How can it be, it seems that all bad things are learned from Instructor Sinia~? This is the bad adult you only heard about!?
At those words, he remembered the fact that he had drawn Ceylon into his revenge.
Sinia was blissfully happy in this situation.
How nice it would be if no one got hurt and the revenge was successful.
How happy I would be if days like this continued in the future.
so i was anxious
All of this was achieved by drawing Ceylon into his revenge.
It was a sandcastle built on deception.
someday it will collapse
How will that affect Ceylon?
It will surely hurt.
And the size of the wound will be proportional to the day the relationship continued.
‘yet…’
So, you should stop right now.
It’s not too late.
When Ceylon was still unscathed.
when no damage was done.
This relationship must end.
no matter how you think
It is not right to bring in an innocent disciple for your personal revenge.
‘good.’
It was the time when Sinija, who had finally succeeded in making a promise, was about to talk to Ceylon.
“Oh, everyone. Would you like to see what I discovered this time?”
At that time, Ceylon took out a suspicious document from his bosom and showed it to the hound agents.
“I’m not sure as it hasn’t been fully deciphered yet, but it looks like one of the eight arms is hiding in a back alley.”
“…!”
The spirits of the hounds, including Sinia, ran away in an instant.
“Ah, if the document is analyzed, we will be able to find out the exact information about the eight arms and where it lives, so I think everyone can look forward to it.”
“Why did you tell me that now Ceylon!”
“One of the eight arms!?”
“This is amazing!?”
“Eight arms… already…?”
Not a direct master, but eight arms.
That was the ultimate goal of the hounds.
Conditions for destroying Harasin.
The realization of the revenge he dreamed of so much was right in front of his eyes.
What surprised me the most was Xinia.
‘Eight arms…’
perhaps.
Those eight arms that Ceylon was talking about might be the agonizing arms, the target of Sinia’s revenge.
‘one more time…’
Soon after, Sinija vowed to get Ceylon’s help one last time.
It’s just a matter of interpreting the document.
He won’t be in any danger.
also.
If, after defeating the Eight Arms, he surrenders the feat to Ceylon, Ceylon’s status within the true Harasin will greatly rise.
Wouldn’t that be enough to pay for deceiving Ceylon?
‘This time…’
This is the last time.
Risking my life, I will tell Ceylon the truth without fail when this is over.
Sinia, who made a final oath to herself, began to listen to Ceylon’s story.
***
The hounds drank like mad, praising Ceylon’s achievements until they literally passed out.
“Ugh…”
Cynia felt nauseous and came to her senses.
It felt like my head would break.
‘When did I fall asleep?’
two in the morning.
After checking the time, Sinia used mana to get rid of her headache and nausea.
“Ceylon is…”
Contrary to the impression, Ceylon was surprisingly strong in alcohol.
Alcohol is constantly pouring into your sloppy face, but what-
Didn’t other people hide subspace artifacts in their mouths? I was seriously suspicious.
As Sinia checked Ceylon’s condition and poured one drink after another, all the other hound agents except for Sola and Sinia were outstretched.
Then Solar stretched out.
After that – I don’t remember.
“Ceylon, are you alright…?”
Cynia was the first to find Ceylon.
“…uh?”
Ceylon was not visible.
Instead, a note was left at his place.
The contents of the note were as follows.
– Everyone was so excited that they teased me, but surprisingly, the alcohol was weak (laughs).
-Everyone was asleep, but I was drinking alone, so I decided to interpret the rest of the document.
-But maybe it was because I was drunk (?) My head was spinning very well.
– Why is it that no progress has been made even if we stick together all day?
-So, having checked the rest of the document-
“…”
Sinia’s expression slowly turned white as she read through the document.
According to the contents of the slip, Ceylon analyzed the rest of the document and identified the identity of the eight arms hidden in Arien.
It was Edgar, the head of the criminal organization ‘Black Cup’ who controls the ‘Rotten Street’, the back alley of District 2.
There.
Ceylon uncovered Edgar’s secret abode, where evidence exists of his begging arm.
To identify the Eight Arms and find out his secret abode.
It was indeed a tremendous achievement.
Indeed, it was a tremendous achievement, but it clouded Ceylon’s judgment, who was drunk.
– But there is one thing to point out.
-There is a damaged part of the document, so this information may not be clear.
– For that reason.
-Now, at this midnight hour, I will sneak in and check the authenticity of the information.
-Didn’t Instructor Sinia also say that?
– Don’t procrastinate on what needs to be done
-This great disciple, I will follow the teachings and do what I have to do, so please
– Please look forward to the good news.
and.
In the corner of the slip, the following was written in a handwriting that clearly conveyed the excitement.
-If it’s this, he’ll recognize me too.
“no…”
Cynia’s complexion turned white.
In her mind, the image of Ceylon thirsting for recognition, wanting to be acknowledged by her right-hand man and taught her assassination skills, came to mind.
and.
It reminded me of Ceylon, who was thirsty for recognition, trying to overdo it, but was discovered by the strangling arm and faced a terrible death.
The association was made very simply.
That will be too.
Eight arms could not fail to notice the pursuit of a youngster like Ceylon.
thus.
It was highly probable that by now Ceylon would have already been caught by the strangling arm.
-Don’t worry too much, I’ll be back by one o’clock!
That paragraph said it all.
“ah…”
The light disappeared from Cynia’s eyes as she recalled Ceylon’s death.
“It’s because of me…”
no.
“no…!”
“What is it, Sinia! What’s going on!?”
The hound agents who woke up late after hearing Sinia’s screams started to grasp the situation.
“ah…”
“What are we doing…”
Then, he showed the same reaction as Sina.
Blinded by their personal vengeance, they dragged in an ignorant innocent child and drove the child to their death.
“we…”
How is it different from the Harasin guys?
That time when everyone was engrossed in self-doubt and self-blame.
“I don’t know yet…! Hey everyone! Get ready to go save Ceylon!”
Solar, who came to her senses first, ran out of the hideout and headed somewhere.
It was an office that Ledar had set up in District 3 to solve the Dalaai case.
The current time is 2:00 AM.
It’s late at night, but according to the information she had, Ledar used to work late into the night on business related to Dalai.
just as expected. The lights were on in the office.
She broke down the closed door and knocked on the door of the office.
“Sir Ledar!!! It’s urgent!”
“what’s the matter?”
“Oh, what age is the crazy b*tch now?”
Ledar immediately opened the door and greeted Sola, and the foul-mouthed maid who was dozing in the corner belatedly stood behind him.
“It’s a big deal. Ceylon-“
Even in the midst of embarrassment, Solar clearly organized the situation and conveyed it to them.
“… for that reason-“
We must go get Ceylon right away!
It was the moment Solar was about to say that.
“Oh~ As expected, our Ceylon friend.”
Ledar nodded in pride.
“Eight arms. You did something big.”
“Because I am a bastard.”
“…?”
Solar was taken aback.
Did you hear my story?
If you heard it, how the hell did you have to interpret it to get such a reaction?
“Hey… don’t you understand…?”
“huh?”
“Ceylon-kun went alone to the Eight Arms! We have to go rescue him right now!
“…”
At those words, Ledar and Lize exchanged glances for a moment.
Then he looked at Solar again and said.
“What are you talking about? Saving a Ceylon friend.”
“what…?”
“There’s no way that Ceylon’s friend left without any measures, right?”
“No, what the hell is that…”
Solar was speechless.
Where does this blind and false belief come from?
“Sah, the opponent has eight arms!?”
It was not an opponent that could be dealt with with the countermeasures prepared by a youngster who was dominated by beating.
“…”
From noble mtl dot com
Compared to the desperate Solar, Ledar was surprisingly calm.
“so?”
If Ceylon went to Eight Arms, it would all be arranged by him (the Right Arm).
So there was no reason to worry.
Then, Rize answered harshly.
“Look at us, what, what?”
He (the White Serpent) watches over Ceylon.
So there was no reason to worry.
Solar, who interpreted the attitude of the two differently, murmured in amazement.
“You guys are just like us…”
“?”
“?”
Ledar and Rize tilted their heads.
What are you talking about?
Woah! I respect Ceylon. He’s teaching them like Onizuka would.
