Taming The Villainesses chapter 161

(EP.161)Night #2

161 – Day and Night #2

To be honest, I often wandered the streets at night.

Of course, this was the story when I was in the Kingdom of Angmar.

The reason I wander around at night is to avoid the eyes of others and do bad things.

It’s like digging up information from the nobles who oppose and bite me, and trying to capture their weaknesses. It’s like something that shouldn’t be noticed by other people.

Usually such things are done in dark alleys, in secret nights. It was a dark night in the back alley that I met the assassin Kalira Young-ae.

But even if it’s not like that, the formula ‘walking around at night’ = ‘bad thing’ has been around for quite some time.

I must say that before I became Tae Oh Gospel, that is, when I was living as an ordinary human of the opposite s*x, I felt a strange sense of immorality in walking around at night.

It may have been because of the teaching at the nursery school and school.

-Don’t do anything else and go in early.

No matter where the teachers are, they don’t really like the students running around late at night. That’s why I’m trying to get my students home early.

So, until I was in middle school, I had never been around after 10 pm.

Then you become an adult. When facilities such as PC rooms and jjimjilbang become available after midnight.

Also, when I was a freshman on my own, breathing the morning air and going to and from a convenience store for 24 hours at dawn alone, I could feel a strange deviance.

I feel like I’m doing something bad.

A sense of immorality to do something that shouldn’t be done.

Of course, someone might be able to tell you what to make so much fuss about by wandering around at night, but at least that’s what I was at the time.

In fact, now I don’t feel any other excitement from walking around at night. Maybe it’s because I’m old and I’ve had a lot of experience.

Then why am I making such a sloppy self-reflection right now? It was because he felt the nostalgia of his childhood in the night street he was headed towards by Narmi’s hand.

Narmi dragged me into a dark alley. Then he looked around, opened the manhole cover placed nearby, and pointed his finger at the ladder below it.

“Would you like to go down first? Or shall I go down first?”

I don’t know what’s under that underpass. It didn’t look like Narmi was trying to feed me or trap me.

“I will go first.”

So I mustered up the courage and reached out to the ladder first. I was about to go down one by one in a stifling, rhythmic manner, so Narmi follows me and descends the ladder.

Then Narmi said from above.

“Oh, you can’t look up! I’m wearing a school uniform skirt right now!”

“That’s right, what.”

tap. iron puck.

When I finally step on my feet, the soles of my shoes are soggy on the damp, damp floor than I expected. I feel bad.

—Light.

I activated the most basic luminous magic of the first rank. Then, a sphere that rose from my palm lit up in all directions.

It’s normal.

It’s just an ordinary sewer.

An underground sewer where rats are squeaking and unused garbage and scrap metal are dumped. That was my impression. There were a lot of sewers like this in Angmar.

A group of bandits called the Black Robes took over the sewer and did all sorts of illegal things, so they were planning a massive subjugation. I don’t know if Reinhardt would have solved it well.

Then Narmi came down to the floor and flattened the pleats of her skirt.

“What do you think? are you okay? It’s damp and musty.”

“Yeah, but it’s not to the point where I can’t stand it.”

I was more surprised that Narmi was in this sewer than I was. She is the daughter of the Draco family. Because flowers and dew, beautiful flower gardens and butterflies were more suitable for a girl.

However. If you think about it, Narmi was a necromancer who guarded the tomb and buried the corpses, and had a lot of talent in black magic and necromancy. For necromancers, a place like this underpass is a good fit.

“Then you must follow me! There may be traps along the way!”

“All right.”

* * *

Anyway, it was the first time I knew that such a dungeon-like underground waterway existed in the basement near the Ark main building.

However, Narmi seemed quite accustomed to moving forward bravely from here. It’s as good as the experience of coming here.

“Here it is!”

silkygoat was the goat. cry

Narmi seemed like a passionate adventurer.

Ark’s underground water, all kinds of traps and gigantic monsters lurking all over the place, smashing down is enough to put your tongue out.

—Bone Spear.

🤩🤩🤩🤩

Seeing the spears of bones gathered from Narmi’s fingertips pierce the body of a huge monster rat in a single stroke was not admirable, but terrifying.

tuk tuk.

I asked, patting the corpse of a rat as big as my body.

“What makes a mouse so big?”

“I don’t know either!”

“okay.”

“As far as I know, I think it was some kind of magic circle influence.”

“Is it magic?”

“Is it the magic of growth promotion? Something like that is somewhere in this arc. I’ve also heard that creatures affected by it grow this much.”

It’s growth-promoting magic.

Looking back, most of the monsters that appeared around this arc were creatures that grew abnormally.

From gigantic ants to helicopters gigantic Hercules wasps to gigantic rats to cockroaches. If that’s the effect of the magic circle, it’s quite understandable.

If there is such a convenient spell, I wonder if small and dwarf half-elves like me can grow taller.

182 cm, Tae Oh Gospel.

That’s cool.

However, such a dream did not last long.

ㅡ Zuzzu.

pudder duduk.

Because a cockroach as big as my body flapped its wings and flew towards me.

“Ugh, damn, that’s a surprise-!”

I was vigilant, I couldn’t stand it anymore, and I swear and hit the buttocks. Seeing that, Narmi smiled and held out her hand.

“Are you afraid of bugs?”

“Aren’t Narmi-sama scared?”

“I have often created loneliness! There are a lot of things like centipedes and locusts in the cemetery. So the bugs don’t care. My sister is afraid.”

I wanted something about loneliness, so I thought of an article I had read in a book before.

Did I say that if you trap poisonous insects in a jar and make them kill and eat each other, the result itself becomes a curse in itself?

“How did you make it?”

“I’m still raising them at the villa! My sister hates it though. It’s cute if you look closely. see you later? He has a good personality.”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

It’s creepy.

So, in the end, as I was pondering as to why Narmi brought me to the basement infested with these bugs, I began to see something like a bright light slowly radiating out.

“It looks like they are almost there!”

silkygoat was the goat. cry

Narmi accelerates her steps.

I too was going to miss Narmi, so I hurriedly ran, and immediately a bright light spewed out of my face. As I was used to the long darkness of the underground waterway, the glare made my face frown.

“What do you think? Isn’t that cool?”

silkygoat was the goat. cry

Narmi smiled like a bright moon, reached out and pointed at the air.

At her slender fingertips, you can see the glowstone lights installed here and there and people busily moving under them.

-Now, I’m selling clown mushrooms that have just arrived in the dungeon today. Good quality.

-Kill the dungeon boss and sell the cursed long sword obtained from the box. I haven’t tried emotions yet. Please provide the price.

The sound of them chattering here and there was loud and noisy, but it was so lively that it was nice to see. Only then did I realize what this place was doing.

It’s an underground market.

I think I’ve heard at first glance that the marketplace where the warriors buy and sell goods is active within the arc. That was right here.

“I never thought there would be a place like this under the ark of the church.”

When I admire her purely, Narmi smiles, revealing her white teeth.

“Because when the light is bright, the shadows are also thick. Of course, the denominations would know. It’s just shivering.”

How can that strict denomination tolerate such an illegal market?

But I thought I knew why.

This market is bound to happen no matter what. If we suppress it, it may penetrate further into the shadows and differentiate into a point organization, which may become uncontrollable.

That’s why it’s convenient to just collect them in one place and manage them.

In fact, as if to prove the denomination’s management, I could see soldiers, warriors, and knights wearing epaulettes of the Holy Cross everywhere in the basement.

They look like customers in the market, but their gaze is more like that of a manager and supervisor than that of a customer.

Anyway.

I was in this place again.

“This place is only open at night. It must be a place that Mirna unnie has never been to before?”

“Actually, Mirna-sama is not the kind of person who will come to this place.”

Mirna is more strict with the discipline of the Order than Narmi.

If it were her, she would see this place and say, “This is an ungodly place. A place that hides and whispers in the dark like a mouse… !” would have been indignant.

In that sense, Narmi seems to have a lower religious faith than Mirna.

And wouldn’t that mean that Narmi’s notion of ironic chastity that Mirna had in her heart was significantly less. It can be said that it is relatively open-minded.

I wish I had a chance to get Narmi’s points.

As I was thinking about it, I saw a stall with miscellaneous goods in my eyes. And the one who runs the stall is a nymph with short blonde hair.

“Goldnoy?”

It was the moment I remembered the tomb robber nymph who had sold me high spells in Fairy Nights. Apparently, his name was Goldnoy, the nymph of treasure.

But the blonde nymph frowned.

“Goldnoy? Don’t treat me like that cheating nymph… ! I’m a nymph for sale, dojinoi… ! One day I will work hard to save money and go to the moon… !”

A nymph for sale? What is dojinoi again?

What are nymphs?

The guy is interested in me.

“Aww, are you a nymph? He’s a fairy, but he’s a man. It must have been a half-elf… ! I’ll give you a special item, a discount… !”

Do you give discounts on items?

I looked at what he was digging. There are everything from broken glass and crushed cans to someone’s gold teeth and an unknown dagger. rings, etc.

Among them, the earrings that caught my attention were the earrings. Silver earrings about the size of a fingernail. It looked like a boomerang, but now it looks like a crescent moon.

Dojinoi said quickly as if he felt my gaze.

“It’s a good thing… ! As for this earring, it is a very fine item blessed by the moon goddess… ! The material is also platinum… ! There will be no allergic reaction… !”

taken from noblemt l

Goddess of the moon?

As far as I know, the gods worshiped by the Church Ark are the gods of light and salt. It can be said that he is the only god. But the goddess of the moon probably means heretical religion, pagan god.

It’s definitely something you can’t see other than the underground market. Then a letter appeared in front of my eyes.

「Moonlight Earrings: When it receives moonlight, it sparkles softly. It has no effect, but it is very popular with women. It slightly corrects the charm level.”

It seems that it was a lie to say that he received a blessing from the moon goddess, but it seems that it was an object that had undergone magical craftsmanship in its own way.

“It looks like a crescent moon, so it’s pretty. It’s small and cute.”

silkygoat was the goat. cry

Narmi is interested.

Without missing it, Tojinoi smiled slyly.

“If you buy it now, the painless needle that pierces the ear… . Anesthetic applied… , to provide a service… ! This great bleeding service is only available now, here and in this place, Tojinoi… !”

“So how much is this?”

When I asked, Dojinoi bounced the abacus from somewhere. And I don’t know what basis it was based on, but it says a pretty surprising price.

“It’s neatly paying only 1 million coins for a pair… !”

A million-dollar earring. I can’t tell if it’s expensive or cheap. Is it on the cheap side for women’s jewelry? Or is it expensive for an earring?

“Give me this!”

Then Narmi exclaimed cheerfully. Bundles of bills taken out of the wallet come and go. With that, the transaction ends neatly.

I asked.

“Can’t we look around some more places?”

“No, I like this. But, I’ve never worn earrings before. What can I do? You have to get your ears pierced. What to do if you are sick… .”

silkygoat was the goat. cry

Narmi’s red eyes then turned to me.

“Tae-oh, will you do it for me?”
