56. The Blackness of Famine (2)
Quaang! Quadduk! Wow!
Irua stayed close to the door and listened carefully to the sounds outside. Seeing this, Lena said a word to her.
“Stop it and sit down. Standing uneasy is going crazy.”
Irua looked at Lena disapprovingly. She made a nearby lump of luggage into a clean, soft sofa with her tongue and leaned comfortably on it.
“Are you not worried? There are so many executives in the Galactic Empire, but Zeo is fighting alone. It’s a completely irregular situation. No matter how much… .”
“Since there is a place to believe, they must have locked us up here. It will only get in the way if you care.”
“You are at peace. Aren’t you looking at Jeo too much?”
“It is the opposite. I trust you, so I can relax.”
“You pretend to be proud of how much you know.”
Irua groaned.
“He is a strong and attractive man. Any other information is noise. These are things you don’t really need. It’s a little chilly. ‘Give me your teacup.’”
Since when did he start to overestimate Zeo so much? Irua was annoyed for nothing.
Lena made a tea set on the simple table and was enjoying tea time with a leisurely cup of hot black tea. Seeing that the space suit was also removed, it seemed that the surrounding space had even been configured with an atmosphere.
“Didn’t you make a lot of something?”
“This much has become possible. There are still too many things that require complex blueprints. Whoops. I enjoy every day with Jeo. I feel like I’m being tested every day to see how far I can go.”
Lena looked at her fingertips with an ecstatic expression. Irua closed her eyes for a moment and focused on Lena’s presence.
‘… Spirit level 11. I… Dark Matter 9.’
The difference does not narrow, only widens. She bit her lip lightly.
‘Looking at Lena, 9 to 10 seems to take a very long time… What do we do.’
For a while, Irua felt nervous.
Kwaaang!!
A loud sound hit her ears. Irua sticks to the shield again and infers the situation outside.
“… Hasn’t it already been 30 minutes?”
“Your memory is bad. Didn’t Zeo tell you not to open it before talking to him first?”
“What if Zeo manages to defeat the monsters and is on the verge of death? What if I’m down and can’t speak?”
“’Get out the rope’.”

Good! In Lena’s hand, the titanium alloy rope used to secure rockets was lifted.
“Lua, I wish you had a castle wall to be tied to with a rope.”
“urg… ! You’re talking stupid! I might be right!”
“At this moment, Emperor Ractor could accidentally pierce his brain while picking his nose and die. Couldn’t I be right?”
“Just being sarcastic!”
“Don’t open it.”
Before Lena could finish her words, Eruah created the dark matter. I touched the switch on the outside of the shield. A door that opens with a loud sound. Lena sighed and put the spacesuit back on.
“fifth!”
Irua immediately checked the situation outside.
It was a mess.
It was more like entering a bombed-out butcher’s shop than a field of corpses. The floor, walls, and ceiling were full of shredded pieces of meat. Of course, they were all fighters of the Dark Kingdom.
Jeong Eui-seok stood in the center with his back turned. His body was covered in blood, but there appeared to be no wounds.
“fifth? are you okay?”
Irua called his name. Jung Eui-seok slowly turned his head. Irua realized that something was wrong.
It was because there was no flesh on the dragon’s face, and only the bones were emitting blood with a vicious expression.
“my… oh?”
The next moment, Chung Eui-seok screamed and rushed at Leeru-ah. Irua couldn’t even think of avoiding it.
Chew!
Lena got in between the two. She wrapped Jeongeui-seok’s neck and shoulders with the rope she was holding and restrained him on the other side of Yiru-ah.
“’Be strong’. ‘Become stronger’. ‘Plenty of ropes’!”
Dozens of ropes were shot out from the ceiling and walls and wrapped around Jung Eui-seok’s body. It seems to forcibly bend the joint, but at the same time, it cuts off the alloy rope like a rubber band.
“’Be hardened’. ‘Crash down’. ‘Strike down’, ‘stronger’, ‘stronger’!”
The ceiling and floor collapse and shoot at Jung Eui-seok. Hardened iron blocks weighing down his body like a prison. Even that breaks down like Styrofoam.
Jung Eui-seok’s skeleton spreads its jawbone terrifyingly. He rushes to eat Lena’s small head.
“Dibarion, Ain!”
After coming to her senses, Eruah created a huge dark matter in Jung Eui-seok’s chest. Jung Eui-seok, unable to move forward due to strong tension. Twist your back bizarrely. And soon, his waist doubled, and a skeleton was created on the back of his head, and he charged toward Irua.
“Hick-”
Eruah was terrified and let out a whimper. A skeleton that erodes vision in an instant. this got eaten I was determined to die.
next moment.
A large hand came up on Irua’s head.
“I told you to come out when I call.”
Irua grabbed her wobbly legs and slowly raised her head. There was Jeong Eui-seok’s worried face.
Looking at his face, along with Ando, the guilt of not trusting him came up. A strange sense of defeat toward Lena, who had been asserting that she trusted Jeong Eui-seok all along.
Is it because of the rebellion against those feelings? Iruah immediately jumped into Jeongui-seok’s arms and hugged him.
“Sorry, sorry… .”
Eruah apologized to Jung Eui-seok while hiding her teary tone.
“I had a hard time blocking both of them. Famine was a dangerous skill if bitten.”
“In the future, please give Lua a clear warning before using that ability.”
Lena brushed off her skirt and stood up from her seat.
Yiruah lifted her head from Jeongui-seok’s arms and looked at Lena with a reddened nose.
“I-I’m sorry, Lena… .”
Lena smiled lightly at Yirua.
“It’s okay. Aren’t you Zeo’s subordinate? It’s Zeo’s fault for not properly educating his subordinates, so it’s like putting a debt on him. It was a good cause.”
Lena approached Jung Eui-seok and gently caressed his chin with her index finger.
“This must be paid quite expensive.”
“I get it.”
“Now, it was me who was wrong, so I… .”
Although Irua timidly rebelled, Lena looked at her as if she were sympathetic.
“Lua, if my men made a mistake like this, they would have already blown their heads off.”

“So, what kind of ability is the Black of Famine?”
On the way back from Mecca, Lena asked.
“To put it simply, it’s berserk. lose your temper and get stronger However, it doesn’t raise my stats very much.”
“Then how did you turn so many combatants into pieces of meat?”
“The time of famine is not alone, it is shared by all. It’s contagious berserkness.”
“aha. Does that mean the combatants fought among themselves and were annihilated?”
“okay. Of course, the one who survives until the end is the strongest among them.”
“It’s fun, but there are definitely limited situations where it’s useful.”
“Maybe it can be used to reduce the number of ships in the latter half of the battle with the Galactic Empire. But the problem is that if you don’t get bitten, it won’t go berserk and I can’t control it, so there’s a high chance that the ractor will escape.”
“Huh. Then how about at a time like this? It doesn’t matter if the Galactic Empire isn’t your opponent. for example… .”
Lena gave an example.
It was something I liked quite a bit.
“indeed. As expected, I can’t follow the idea of the #1 villain.”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
The conversation with Lena was amicable.
He has a lot to learn as a villain. as well as how the organization operates.
Lua turned her head because she was too quiet.
“Lua, are you okay?”
“huh? Ah yes… .”
“Don’t be so depressed. You don’t have much combat experience yet, and you can do that.”
“huh… .”
It seems that he is not in the mood to answer.
I decided to go back and take care of it a little.

After returning to the hideout, I made a deep dive to analyze the data.
“Sujaang… No matter what country this is… The language does not correspond and the data storage system is completely different… . These guys use base 128… .”
The guy became a lung man in one day and declared giving up. In the end, I didn’t want to, but I analyzed using the companies that I took control of by covert.
Rather, I thought it was a good way to get results from multiple places and verify errors.
By catching the monsters of the Galactic Empire, Vengeance leveled up smoothly. Conspiracies that infiltrated every corner of society were also very helpful in gaining experience.
Vengeance is now level 8 of the villain organization. Shin Sung-soo is 10 and the world ranking is 15, so there is still a long way to go, but it is almost as planned.
As I was raising my level, the results of the data analysis of the kingdom of darkness arrived.
“Zeo, was the thing you got from the ship trash or a gemstone?”
“I’m checking.”
Lena sat down next to my desk. I looked around.
“What about Lua?”
“I left early. I rarely work at the hideout these days.”
Emma answered instead. Usually, at times like this, Lua, not Lena, would sit next to her, but these days, I don’t think I’ve seen her very well.
I checked the data. Excluding errors in discrepancies alone among the results of multiple companies. Read the contents slowly.
courtesy enhancer.
The operation principle and effect of the cursed machine that took Somi’s life are written.
And as I read it, I unconsciously gnashed my teeth.
“… fuck.”
“I didn’t know. Zeo, were you a child who used swear words so provocatively?”
“Don’t joke around.”
I broke the tablet PC I was holding with the rest of my hand.
“Damn it!”
I couldn’t hold back my anger and threw it away. Lena looks at me expressionlessly.
I muttered involuntarily.
“… It wasn’t an enhancement.”
