I Became the Villain of a Dark Fantasy 43

Episode

43 (Paid Start).

Assassination of the heir to the principality.

Aiden thought deeply about the proposal Xerath gave him.

The Empire and the Principality were bound to come into conflict at some point. This is because the doctrines and ideologies pursued were so different.

It was not just a religious issue, but the overall values themselves were also contradictory.

In addition, the principality was a place where demon worshipers roamed openly. Aiden’s main enemy. In the end, if it was an opponent to be confronted with, it was better to step on the bud.

I was conscious of Kadak’s existence and the church’s situation.

The former resolved itself, and the latter was held by Xerath and Tegain, so there seemed to be no need to worry.

It wasn’t a war though.

If it was the level of assassination Xerath suggested, it was the best way for Iden to think of it.

After a long thought, he answered.

“It’s good enough.”

Xerath chuckled.

“I thought you would agree.”

“What about the number of people involved? It would be advantageous to organize with a very small number of the best.”

For Iden, five or less seemed appropriate.

“I agree. Even so, it consists of 4 people, including you, in the 2nd attack of the Aspect Corps.”

It was a tone that Xerath was somewhat regretful.

“The 1st rank and highest ranks are waiting in the north. It can’t be used.”

Aiden nodded at the customer.

“It seems that the reign of King Baeksu is a fait accompli.”

“That’s right. Based on your report, the Empire sent a separate investigation team, but there were no survivors.”

The measure of dispatching the highest forces to the north was very appropriate. This is because it was something that should never have happened to the King of Baeksu.

Aiden said calmly.

“It can’t be helped. One of them is enough.”

The world thinks that even the lower end of the Aspect is a monster.

If it was the third rank of such an organization, it was an overwhelming force. Then to Iden. It was not a composition to be dissatisfied with.

Xerath smiled contentedly.

“Is this a hero recorded in the Bible?

“Don’t make fun of me.”

he shook his head. Then he said in a calm voice.

“I’m not kidding. However, I just want to say this. If you walk only on success, you will be blunted by the possibility of failure. Always be cautious.”

“I’ll listen.”

Iden didn’t mean to be conceited either.

Xerath nodded and immediately refreshed the atmosphere.

“Okay then. I’ll introduce you to the crew that will be with you.”

When I opened the carriage door, familiar faces were waiting.

It was Valkyrie Shiron, a giant divine mage, and a man who covered his body with bandages.

In the north and north, they were the Aspects that were trivially bumped into due to Tyrun’s work.

Shiron smiled brightly and looked at Iden.

“It’s nice to see you again. This time, we can show off each other’s skills. I’m Valkyrie and Chiron.”

“Paladin, I’m Iden.”

The huge divine wizard lowered his head slightly.

“It’s an honor to be part of a cause with a hero you admire. My name is Jude, the Holy Mage.”

After shaking hands, I turned to the bandaged man, but he said nothing.

Shiron opened his mouth instead.

“My name is Goth. But you can call it Bandage. That’s what everyone calls it. I’m in charge of a priest, but I can’t speak because I don’t have a tongue.”

A priest who can’t memorize prayers. It was unusual, but I passed it because I thought there must be another way.

The compilation was the standard. Paladin, Valkyrie, Holy Mage, High Priest.

Iden nodded and turned to Xerath.

“I’ll listen to them for an overview.”

“I will.”

Xerath scanned the Aspects with his eyes.

“The rolled stone took over the captaincy, so don’t be territorial.”

The giant wizard Jude laughed and shook his head.

“Chief of staff. The point of view of the Bible is Sir Aiden. I don’t like being portrayed as a narrow-minded fellow. hahahaha.”

True to his words, the Bible began to contain Aiden’s story. If Paidna’s bookshelves and the assassination of Confucius were recognized as major events, I would record them again this time.

Aiden said as he got off the carriage.

“Master, I ask you one last favor. Please judge fairly. Most of the mermaids have converted, and the remaining ones have room.”

Xerath nodded slowly.

“Those who have redeemed themselves with their will, God also embraces them. I only follow God’s will.”

From now on, Seilun left Aiden’s hand. I was just hoping for good results.

Aiden showed his respect and turned his footsteps.

The place we headed straight to was an inn that was once ‘Tears of a Mermaid’.

However, the sign was nowhere to be seen. It seemed to have been removed to change the name.

While the Aspects were helping prepare Xerath’s escort, Iden was saying goodbye to the original party.

The siblings and Euron leave for the North, and Uriel and Jonah head for the Church.

As soon as Sein was taking care of Yupe, she saw Aiden and rushed at her.

Crying happily as if meeting her mother, she burrowed into Aiden’s holy grail.

Aiden stroked Yufe’s hair once and looked at the siblings.

“Daryl, I need to ask you something.”

“Yes, ask me anything. Be better.”

“How much do you know about Cardach?”

Daryl scratched his head, looking a little puzzled.

“Write it. Actually, I don’t know anything about it. He’s an old man who doesn’t want to talk about himself, so I haven’t heard anything either.”

I asked the same question to Sae-in, but the answer that came back was similar.

“Then, did Kadak say anything else? About your birth, or the reason you took it.”

Daryl shook his head.

“Even if you ask, he turns around quietly.”

Same goes for Sein. In the first place, that b*tch didn’t even know that she was a half horse.

Sein said.

“Master said, “When you leave, just tell the hero to be with you. He just left those words and disappeared.”

That said, he didn’t know where he was going.

Aiden nodded.

“Sir, but why are you asking such a thing all of a sudden?”

“It’s nothing.”

It immediately turned the topic around.

“More than that, don’t waste time and get as much as you can and come back.”

“Of course. I’m prepared to eat blood poop.”

Euron also smiled and replied vigorously.

“I’ll surprise you.”

Iden patted them on the back and approached Uriel.

She completely removed her male disguise and returned to her usual appearance, and she was so beautiful that I could stick out my tongue.

Yuriel looked at Aiden with worried eyes.

“… I don’t think you have time to rest. The place you’re going this time will be difficult.”

“It will be fine.”

A shadow passed over Uriel’s face. You can’t stop it though. She took a step closer to Iden.

With a gentle hand, he wiped the scar on Aiden’s cheek. Thanks to her frequent treatment, the scars had faded quite a bit.

“Don’t get hurt.”

Euron and Daryl didn’t think that those eyes were those of a saint who simply cared about patients. I felt like I had to turn my head.

Aiden nodded.

“I’ll try my best.”

Uriel took out a small box from his bosom and handed it over. It contained ointment.

“Be sure to apply it.”

“No need.”

“It’s a name.”

Aiden stared at her before replying.

“All right.”

“Take this too. It will help.”

She pulled out a ring with a small boseogi from her ring finger and handed it to him.

Iden didn’t refuse the favor and took it.

Then he pointed to Jonah.

“Take good care of Jonah and Seilun.”

The church will educate the converted mermaids separately so that they can adapt to the empire, but there is a high probability that they will not proceed systematically.

However, if the saintess cared about it, the church would show sincerity.

Uriel nodded.

“I’ll take care of it until the end, so don’t worry too much.”

“Thank you. Then, I’ll have to go.”

Uriel tried to ask him to be careful one more time, but he just sent them off with an elegant smile.

Because I wanted to make a bright impact.

The rest of the party also waved their hands.

“Sir, take care of yourself!”

“When I see you again, I’ll be a little more competent!”

“Paladin-nim, please go.”

Aiden responded and left the inn.

*

A black carriage led by four huge warhorses passed through the gates of Iriyasu and ran through a field of yellow reeds.

A red guillotine pattern adorned the black surface. Since it symbolizes the achievement, no one could come close.

There were no thieves or bandits attacking. If you had that much guts in the first place, you would be living a different life.

The destination was the East.

Aiden, who boarded inside, had been informed of the rough plan from the Aspects.

“I’ll treat you from now on for efficient control. Are you uncomfortable?”

Shiron quickly shook his head. The bandage stared at Iden in silence.

Divine Wizard Jude smiled and replied.

“Wouldn’t it be inconvenient? Do as you please.”

Aiden opened the map and pointed to the eastern forest.

Forest of Giants. The vast sea of water that covered the eastern part of the continent was literally the domain of giants.

The principality was beyond it.

“The destination is the Eastern Countess of Carshua. Leave the wagon in the estate and move on horseback.”

Because the forest was a terrain where wagons could not be operated.

However, now I had no choice but to make use of this nuisance complex.

Even if I rode a horse to the east all day, it would take enough to see it, but I shouldn’t consume my stamina like that.

It was a mission that required the best condition. A resting place was needed, and the Aspects agreed.

Shiron said, staring at the forest marked on the map.

“Giants are excellent fighters. I shouldn’t run into them if possible, but honestly, I’d like to compete with them at least once.”

Desire flashed in Shiron’s eyes. Aiden seemed to know what she was thinking.

“Avoid unnecessary battles until reaching the principality.”

Seeing Aiden’s determined voice, Shiron seemed a little taken aback. He quickly understood and nodded his head.

“Because I’m not going out to play.”

I said that, but in fact, I might have a chance to fight.

This is because giants who enjoy fighting to the death find out the inside bird of the strong man. With this kind of power, their odds of getting hit have increased.

If they met, it was literally a fight to the death, so the situation would only end when one of them died.

Jude looked at Iden with a somewhat serious expression.

“Sir Akune, the opponent you need to prepare for may not be a giant.”

The top predators of the forest were giants, so it was safe to say that no one was stronger than them.

Aiden cast a questioning gaze.

“What do you mean?”

Jude opened his mouth heavily.

“According to the intelligence team’s preliminary investigation, the forest closest to the principality. It is said that giants within a radius of several tens of kilometers from the entrance were killed en masse. I heard that the “Gadora” tribe dried up completely. It was just three days ago. .”

Was it a rivalry between giants? I thought so for a moment, but Jude said that the target to prepare for was not a giant.

It meant that another predator had appeared in the forest.

Aiden asked calmly.

“Has the race been identified?”

“I didn’t see it, except that all the livers were missing from the bodies of the giants:”

“Suddenly, Iden’s eyes shook.

“… any other clues?”

“At least I found strands of silver hair, and a few hairs. I’ve heard that it’s not a body part of a known species.”

Aiden’s expression darkened.

Jude and Chiron began to panic to notice such an atmosphere.

“Oh, Sir Aiden?”

Iden gulped down the rising emotions.
