It Is Fate To Be Loved by the Villains chapter 48

“Did you say fertilization?”

Such a sentence flowed from the emperor.

“There must be something you don’t like. Would you like to hear it?”

Then, until the end.

It was frighteningly calm.

As if this situation has nothing to do with you.

“…”

Well, what.

I’m in a situation where I just have to convey what I have to say.

He pointed at Klein, who had collapsed on the floor with a smirk and chin.

“For now, stop harassing the saintess by sending this guy. The lower water is clean only when the upper water is clear, and because they keep thinking that it is sinister, all the lower ranks are running around like a bastard off leash.”

The mouths of the people around them opened again.

It just didn’t suit one of the most powerful men on the continent.

“And, is there something you are desperately looking for right now?”

I’m talking about Yuria’s sword. The national treasure of Seonghwangguk.

“I will have that. Don’t just look for it. Or is it a big deal?”

The immediate goal is to somehow deal with the object that creates the curse of severance. There are 4 days left. Only then will there be a practical way to clear Chapter 2.

And for that, we need to stop this guy from rushing to retrieve it right away.

“…Thanks for the advice.”

To the voice that flows smoothly again.

“His Holiness.”

smile and talk

“This is not advice.”

“…”

In fact, most of the people who can attend the event where the Emperor is present have proven their abilities by going through all of the prenatal battles to some extent.

And now, all the reactions that come out of such people in one lump are the same.

Silence accompanied by astonishment.

“What the hell are you doing!”

I look at the human who is laughing and spitting out a voice of extreme anger.

He is an old priest who looks quite old. He must be an aide to the emperor.

“I heard that you were the one who started the fight in the first place! They say it can’t be helped because it’s a duel and it’s a fair procedure that everyone agreed on, but such an outrage! Seonghwangguk will never condone this!”

“So.”

When I answered that in a leisurely voice, the old priest opened his mouth wide.

“…I beg your pardon?”

“What if I don’t condone it? Are you going to kill me?”

“…”

The old priest started shaking his body with his mouth wide open.

If he stayed still, he would still seem mild-tempered, but it wouldn’t mean much if his face was all red and his beard was waving like it is now.

“Oh… to challenge such a rogue boat to a duel! Are both the Duke of Tristan and the imperial family insane!”

“If you’re not sane, isn’t it worse that way?”

That’s not what I said.

A human nearby, who was watching the situation in silence, dropped those words and stood up.

It is a human whose entire body is covered with muscles and scars reminiscent of old rocks. You could say that he has the same outfit and appearance as the stereotype of an ancient savage warrior.

“You’re harassing a child who is innocent of who she is, and we just left it alone. It’s someone else’s house anyway.”

A soft voice followed.

“But the tribal union already knows what that kid is doing. how important it is. The ulterior motive of offering a trained soldier against a guy who hasn’t even been marked as a warrior yet is sinister, you bastards.”

The warrior who said that smiled and said.

“But even with that, if you lose while showing your bottom line, just shut up. What he did from now on is, from my point of view, an exercise of the legitimate rights of a winner.”

A bitter smile comes out from within.

‘…It’s as expected.’

It was a fact that I had already expected that someone would back me up if I openly challenged the emperor in this way. so i did this

However, the ‘importance’ that this person is talking about was just created after seeing me handle demonic powers without penalty.

Because there is a reason, it’s because you’re taking sides.

“…”

In other words.

From now on, I became the ‘prey’ with the eyes of the imperial family and even the chieftains of the tribal union.

There’s bound to be troublesome things going on in the future.

As I was pondering such a bitter thought, the old priest threw words in that direction.

“Don’t talk! His Holiness the Emperor is safe!”

“What do you say, old man? I’ll give you back what that little boy said. Are you going to kill me, then?”

The old priest kept his mouth shut.

This time, it wasn’t simply because he was angry, but because he read the murder in Hatan’s eyes.

Even the faces of people nearby, who are not the target of receiving such energy, turn blue.

“Even the warchief can’t tell me this or that. People from other countries are no longer my business. Do you understand?”

“…”

In a way, it was a series of diplomatic disasters that went beyond me, but even so, Nosaje remained silent. The emperor doesn’t say anything either.

‘…under.’

I think I know why.

Count the number of patterns you see near your neck. The warriors of the Tribal Union have teeth tattooed on their bodies equal to the number of monsters they have hunted alone.

’10 things.’

And the kind that the hunters of the tribal union call ‘monster’ is on the same level as a drake or a basilisk.

Although they do not reach the top-end monsters such as dragons and the 4 great gods, if any of them are released, a catastrophic situation will unfold.

In other words.

It is said that this human, even among the imperial knights, has hunted 10 monsters alone that he would not even dare to deal with unless he was at the level of leader.

In that respect, it’s a feat that even prominent monsters like Gideon and Atalante can’t follow.

“…”

I know who it is.

Hattan U-Jul.

The chief of the “Blue Dragon”, one of the clans of the Tribal Union, and the best beast hunter in the world. He is also a villain whose face is often reflected in Chapter 3.

In addition, he is currently holding a professorship at ‘The Melting Furnace of Struggle’, an educational institution with a status comparable to that of Elfante.

If you have a bunch of modifiers like this, you can go over it like that with gangsters like that.

Precisely, I don’t want to touch the madman, so I’m avoiding it.

“and you.”

Then, those crazy eyes turned to me.

“I like it quite a bit. Aside from handling that magical power, it shows the qualities of a good warrior.”

[Skill: Fatal attraction is activated. ]

[ The villain likes your spirit! ]

[ Rewards are added to the Gift tab! ]

“…”

Hmm.

If you do something crazy like a crazy person, you’ll like it right away.

“…thank you.”

When I said that to Hatan, who was laughing ferociously, the answer came back.

“Come visit the furnace of struggle sometime. I will treat you well.”

With those words, an ornament flew towards me.

It is a simple accessory that looks like a dream catcher. However, when I received it, my eyes widened immediately.

[Lion’s Necklace] [Accessories]

[ Rating: Rare ]

[ A necklace awarded to promising warriors in the Tribal Union. When worn, the vitality of the body increases. Also, the efficiency of body training through exercise goes up. ]

‘They’re giving me this already?’

The horse is just a rare grade, and the fact that I, a human of the ‘Imperial’, received this suggests quite a lot of facts.

Tribal confederations are the most conservative of all hegemons in their inner customs. Giving this to a human in a foreign country would be unimaginable in the first place.

If you try to get it, you have to roll hard and get it if Hatan likes it.

‘…a crazy gain?’

This doesn’t have a big effect right away, but it’s an item that can completely distort one of the branches of the ‘Academy Exchange Event’, the background of Chapter 3.

Originally, it is a necessary condition to save a person who dies unconditionally in Chapter 3.

So.

It is a clue that I can save the target that Riru Garda, the key figure in that chapter, is risking her life to protect.

“Let’s figure it out on your own. The good sightings have already been done, so I go.”

As I was thinking about that, Hatan left me with only those words and left with a yawn.

The people around him looked at him with eyes asking what the hell he was, but he didn’t seem to care.

“…”

okay. Originally, it felt like that.

An unpredictable natural person. A selfish human being who is always at his own pace.

However, thanks to that guy’s stirring up, no one is going to tackle what I just said. Just waiting for the emperor’s answer.

I sigh and look at the other person’s silhouette looming through the fabric.

Even in the situation that has continued so far, there is no visible reaction.

Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm

Just staring at me without saying a word.

Even in the current situation, this guy.

Without the slightest emotional agitation, it quietly scans me from head to toe.

“All right.”

Then, those words flowed from the emperor in a smooth voice.

“It wasn’t a duel with something in particular, but it’s not difficult to do that much. You can do whatever you want.”

Everyone’s eyes widened at those words.

Because he was saying that he would accept the proposal of the person who had just committed such a violent act in reverse.

Even in public speaking. It means that you will be responsible.

This guy declared that he would not touch Lucien and Yuria from now on, and that he would give up the national treasure of the Holy Land that Yuria possessed.

Of course, you can do this or that with behind the scenes, but there’s a big difference between saying you’re going to do it officially and not doing it.

“His Holiness!”

At those words, the aide looked back in shock, but the Emperor continued to speak in a smooth voice.

“This is correct, aide.”

“But…!”

“I said this was right.”

The old priest immediately shut up.

He must have sensed a slight rage mixed in that voice, which had been flat until now.

“…”

Laugh.

This guy, he’s not just putting this out coolly.

I accepted the offer, suppressing the rage of wanting to rip me apart right now.

“…You are a real sneaky person. I will admit it.”

And when I see him say this, it’s a bit sad for me.

It would have been better if he had insisted on rejecting this offer.

If so.

I could have ripped more out.

-!

The next moment, light descended from the sky.

The light that fell in an instant covered Klein’s body, which was still wriggling on the floor.

blessing of transmission.

The purpose must be to return this guy to the church headquarters.

“…To the Church Headquarters, transfer? on this street?”

“I’ve heard of that name, but…!”

Words like that flowed out from nearby in a bewildered tone.

It’s worth it.

From the headquarters of the Church of the Holy Kingdom to El Fante, it was a distance of several thousand kilometers.

By the way, sending people all the way there at once. well

It must be one of the miracles that can only be seen by bringing real dragons.

It’s even more insane considering that space movement is a very difficult ability to use with divine power.

‘…a monster bastard.’

He was a human who was even jokingly called a ‘human-shaped demon’ by users.

That distorted personality is also a personality, but in fact, even one’s ability is dared to be compared to that of a devil.

Because the name of the strongest priest of all time is not just wearing it.

“…see you later. Dowd Campbell.”

He said my name straight out.

As if I remembered clearly.

“We will definitely meet again.”

end with that.

The illusionary body of the emperor disappeared in Elfante.

●

The Church Headquarters inside the Holy Kingdom, the deepest room among them.

Pope Credo Paul II swept his face with a smile on his face.

At the same time as the light emitted from the scepter attached to the side of the chair went out, he calmly opened his mouth.

“Seras.”

At the same time as she said that, the woman who was waiting quietly next to her offered her a glass.

It was a goblet with the sign of the cross engraved on it, as befits the headquarters of the church, but paradoxically, what was inside was a black liquid that exuded blasphemous energy.

“…”

The emperor quietly inhaled it and let out a deep sigh.

Divine power beyond the Ark is a double-edged sword. Because the human body can’t stand it if you try to unfold it properly.

In order to drive out the remaining energy in the body, you should always wear these things.

Even in making this, someone must have suffered. Maybe he would have given up his life.

But he didn’t care at all.

‘…At least, until the goal is fulfilled.’

will do anything

Until he completes the ‘Great Job’ he has been clinging to for the rest of his life.

The order that followed was also in that context.

“Please dispose of the transferred combat priests to the Chimera Project. It will be a useful battery.”

no need for losers

It’s not a level where it’s going to be a big deal just because a high-ranking combat priest is replaced casually.

“Yes. I will announce that he died during treatment in moderation.”

A woman called Seras quietly bowed her head to show that she had accepted the order.

Unlike usual, he didn’t move right away, which made the emperor tilt his head.

“Seras? Is something going on?”

“…Can I ask you a question?”

“You do.”

It’s a big deal.

A person who always obeyed his words to the point of thinking he was a doll asked a question.

“His Holiness, why did you listen to him?”

“…ah. Are you referring to Sister Greyhounder’s agenda?”

The emperor smiled bitterly.

Certainly, it would be strange for anyone to be kind enough to listen to the request of a guy who is openly corrupting like that.

However.

“I was being threatened, so I couldn’t help it.”

“…Yes?”

Seras asked blankly.

is it a threat?

Rather, at the point of committing such a thing, didn’t they have the initiative to suppress that guy named Daud?

Considering the authority of the emperor, it is natural.

“You know its ‘location’, Seras.”

However, the Emperor continued his speech with a sigh.

“Empire, tribal confederation, and us too. I already knew that he had some sort of relationship with the ‘devil’. And I’ve even seen him wield some of his abilities proficiently during duels.”

That alone elevates Dowd Campbell’s position to an irreplaceable level.

Because no human in history has ever been able to do such a thing.

In fact, the fact that the chieftain of the tribal union sided with him might be due to his inclination, but that fact must account for a fairly large share.

And as soon as he declared that he was such a being in front of everyone, what he did was immediately crash into himself.

“The moment you started arguing with me like that, you ‘showed’ everyone that there was some kind of uncomfortable relationship between me and him. That alone is enough for him to win.”

“…Yes?”

“If anything should ever happen to him since other people found out that he and I had an uncomfortable relationship. It is me and Seonghwangguk who bear the brunt of that loss.”

After blinking for a moment, Seras suddenly hardened his expression and looked at the emperor.

The Emperor smiled bitterly again.

okay. I guess I finally understood.

“If anything bad happens to Dowd Campbell’s identity, the tribal confederation and the empire will first suspect that the Holy Kingdom did it. They will use it as an excuse to make all sorts of duress and ridiculous demands.”

“But we would never…!”

“The facts don’t matter.”

The emperor continued to speak in a low voice.

“The international community is the logic of power. As long as the balance of power is balanced, you can blame the other person no matter what the truth is. In that respect, the question of Dowd Campbell’s identity is a very strong case. He showed his worth in this duel so that everyone would value himself.”

and as a result.

“…Have some espionage and operative personnel stationed near Dowd Campbell. We have to help him.”

Rather, the Seonghwangguk.

It has become a situation where they have to ‘protect’ Dowd Campbell, who openly quarreled with them.

The moment something happens on the other side, the empire and the tribal alliance will use that as an excuse to start pressuring the Holy Kingdom very strongly.

That’s what it means to make threats. If you try to go strong against Dowd Campbell in such a situation, he will rather lead the situation in his favor through the whole situation.

“…Then, His Holiness.”

Seras said in a slightly trembling voice.

“No way, I would like to. The fact that Elfante sent us a message asking His Holiness to observe in person…”

“It must be what he asked for.”

The emperor smiled coldly.

“It was planned from the beginning. I knew it would be like this.”

“…”

Seras closed his mouth with a dumbfounded expression. The arm was slightly goosebumps.

Even deliberately requesting a ridiculous duel. Right after that, he ran into the emperor like a mad dog.

Everything that seemed like a madman’s eccentricity was thoroughly calculated.

this is only

one student.

It was against one of the continent’s most powerful heads of state.

A human who could make the entire continent lively with a single word was completely surpassed by just one student.

The emperor sighed quietly.

I’ve felt this feeling before.

‘…I mean he resembles him.’

The same goes for the ability to ‘suddenly become strong’ in a weak subject. Like the overall atmosphere.

It bears a terrifying resemblance to the most terrifying and unpleasant ‘thing’ he has ever encountered.

“Either way, it’s clear we’ll meet again.”

Maybe even those two.

Maybe we’ll see each other soon. I feel that way.

The emperor sighed and wiped his face.

His expression was still expressionless, but his eyes were still shining brightly.

‘Dowd Campbell.’

its name.

It was a thought I would never forget.
