Everyone’s Secret – 1
I asked.
“The kid’s offspring?”
“It has something to do with Patrick’s bloodline.”
“What are you talking about? It’s not even the Knights of Light, it’s possible that you have something to do with an Al-Qahad figure… Ah.”
She nodded at my expression as if realizing something.
“When we first met, didn’t your mouth sew a string? my past.”
“Ugh. Apparently, I met Dame 30 years ago and signed a contract behind the scenes…”
50 years ago, you said you had a fight with Krotz Benjamin, the vice-captain of the al-Qahad.
I heard the story from Neryl before returning, but I didn’t know it would be connected like this.
Neryl continued.
“Probably a son… no, he is a grandson given his age. I’m a little curious what it would look like.”
“Shall we go see? I want to see Ardwin too.”
“Do you have time for that?”
“If it is the inauguration ceremony of the al-Qahad general, the emperor and other influential figures in the capital will all appear. I think it would be easier to get more information there.”
Neryl nodded.
We left the wagon to the driver.
Then we walked towards the venue.
Neryl told stories of the past as he moved.
“Unlike Dame, Krotz was a guy who could understand the subject. After a few bumps, he raised his hands first and surrendered.”
“Hmm.”
“Still, the name of the Alkahad Vice-General is that it was fun to lie flat like that. So I just let him go.”
It seems like it’s the first time I’ve seen her tell her story first.
Come to think of it, Neryl has lived for a long time, so there must be quite a few memories I don’t know about.
I feel weird.
[Neril can think the same.]
‘ok?’
[You must have a lot of memories that Neryl doesn’t know. All other party members will be the same.]
‘……’
[They are valuable colleagues, so get to know them little by little. Don’t build walls like you did before your return.]
I was surprised.
‘You’re so mature that I can’t believe what you said.’
[What do you mean?]
‘What you said means you’re unbelievably mature.’
[I’m just repeating it. Hey.]
‘Have you ever had a colleague or party member?’
Trail denied.
[no. I had no colleagues. And probably forever.]
I laughed bitterly.
I’m already here, what are you talking about?
The inauguration ceremony was grand.
To those of us who arrived late and got our seats wrong, the distance was almost like a dot, but to me, who is confident in his eyesight, it is quite vivid.
“It’s the emperor.”
The group’s eyes focused on my murmuring.
“Is that crowned ant the emperor?”
“It’s terrifying to say to the master of the empire.”
“I didn’t mean it in a bad way. It just looked like a real ant.”
“It sounds bad enough.”
Then Ardwin said.
He was short in stature, his eyes wide open, with his wooden horse on Offense’s shoulder.
“When my mother raised me as Bowie, she said I was pretty young. I don’t know.”
Then Offense answered.
“Your mother said the famous Mariana Ain.”
“yes. mister.”
“Isn’t it too unfair to call Neryl sister and call me uncle?”
“Um… I’m sorry. mister.”
“Get off my shoulder right now.”
I stared back at the inauguration, fed up.
Even from this far away, Piglet looks vivid.
‘Hey, the emperor was also a very rare sinner.’
The number of criminals written in his blood is a whopping 581.
Except for the kaleid, it’s by far the highest of all the people I’ve seen.
Before the return, the emperor had only one meeting with Caled, so this was the first time he had checked the emperor’s pigtail.
If I had known then, I would have doubted whether the promise of compensation from the emperor was really being kept.
‘Well, anyway, that’s not important now.’
I turned my gaze slightly.
There was a person who was awarded a plaque from the Emperor Al-Qahad.
Is that guy Patrick Benjamin?
They say he’s handsome, but I don’t know.
[This is a very subjective assessment.]
‘……’
[ok? what’s the matter?]
Seeing my expression grow serious, Trail asked.
I breathed in lightly through my nose, examining Patrick’s pigtail.
– Damned Said and 231 others.
Dame Side.
Xenia’s father and commander of the Knights of Light, who is competing with Al-Khad.
The guy has sinned against him.
Considering that he was also registered as a representative, the crime he wanted to hide the most.
‘Trail. Tell me the secret between Dame and Patrick.’
[What? Dam?]
‘We’ll talk later, first the secret.’
[Yeah, yes.]
Soon the screen popped up.
＜I used the Eye of the Battery.＞
＜Currently the battery’s eye level is 3. The secret level that can be read is B level.＞
＜The selection condition is ‘The Secret Between Patrick Benjamin and Dame Said.’＞
＜This secret level is level C. Browse.＞
I first looked at the date in the upper right.
‘yesternight?’
It’s a secret that happened a little while ago, less than a day ago.
On the screen, Patrick was facing Dame.
Dame took a sip of the tea and opened his mouth.
“I would like to say congratulations first. Deputy General Manager Patrick Benjamin.”
“Now, you have to call me the captain.”
“The inauguration ceremony is definitely tomorrow.”
“You are strict. There is only one day left.”
Dame frowned at the hoarse tone.
click.
He deliberately put down the teacup aloud and said,
“Anyway, it’s just the two of us, so talk comfortably. deputy chief.”
“……”
“A lot of people wonder how you managed to rise so quickly in a huge organization called Al-Qahad.”
“Isn’t that a skill?”
“no. Your skills are by no means a leader. To be more precise, I am not even the vice-general who is sitting right now.”
Patrick contorted his face indefinitely.
With it or not, Dame continued to lash out.
“I am not talking about being the head of a competing organization. What the hell did you do to the former Al-Qahad general in the first place?”
“What is it? The general manager just passed on the position of general manager to me and decided to retire.”
“The former general manager still corrected it, and he was the one who publicly said that the day he retired was the day he entered the coffin.”
“It doesn’t happen that people change their minds in an instant.”
“Are you going to keep talking like that?”
Dame yelled at him.
“It’s not just the former general manager. I’ve heard that there are a lot of people in the al-Qahad organization who are jealous or jealous of your super-fast promotion.”
“……”
“The same story is circulating among the aristocrats. The story of a man who was too short to be the grandson of the legendary Vice-Captain Crotz.”
“Shut up that mouth!”
Taang.
Suddenly, Patrick slammed the table.
But Dame didn’t even blink.
It’s true that I’ve only seen hero-level party members, and Dame is the third most powerful person in the empire anyway.
There is no way to be discouraged by the anger of such a sun chick.
And frankly, Patrick didn’t show a single point of dignity.
Patrick nodded and opened his mouth.
“Grandpa, Grandpa! I’m tired of being compared to that name!”
“It is a common occurrence for those born of great bloodlines. Vice-Captain Crotz was a man to be admired.”
“A great man who was so respected could not even touch the Wicked Witch and withdrew.”
Dame wriggles his eyebrows.
“Are you blaming me by turning me around?”
“Oh, come to think of it, Dame-sama went through the same thing. The wretched witch seems to be making our organizations in trouble. in many ways.”
“……”
“Anyway, whoa. That’s it. Let’s get to the point.”
He calmed his excitement and sat down.
And he continued with a smile that looked pretty mean.
“You said a bit too much a while ago because it was just the two of us, but… I understand. I’m going to overwork because it’s just the two of us.”
“What do you mean?”
“It’s like this. This old man.”
“What, what?”
“Look directly into my eyes from now on.”
what?
Suddenly, Patrick’s right eye lit red.
Even though you are looking through the screen, chicken skin grows all over your body in an instant.
The light gradually dimmed with an eerie and ominous atmosphere, and then disappeared.
Dame asked blankly.
“Now what the hell…”
“Still, you are ranked 3rd in the Empire, and you are holding up quite well. Originally, I was going to make it even more corrupt.”
“Ta, fall?”
“Why don’t you roll up your pants?”
Despite a sense of incongruity that changed his tone of voice, Dame first folded the hem of his trousers as instructed.
The fact that you did that is proof that you were feeling it too.
Now that something very bad has happened to his leg.
“……!”
Soon he opened his eyes.
‘OMG.’
[I can’t even open my eyes and see.]
Dame’s right leg, which had been fine until recently, was crushed.
It was as black as mud that had been stagnant for too long and was running down.
The flowing black flesh looked like the face of a monster from hell.
Dame asked in a cold sweat.
“What have you done to me!”
“You must have guessed something already?”
“……”
“You know the power of the Demon Lord of Corruption, right? I turned a part of your body into a monster. Originally I was going to change the thigh, but it stopped at the knee. Still, I do it quite a bit.”
Dame bit his lip.
Blood dripped from his lips, but he exclaimed without even thinking of wiping it.
“How the hell are you using the power of that Demon King!”
“I got some giyeon a while ago. I don’t want to answer a question, so let’s not waste time.”
“Yeah, your guy…”
“Don’t get excited all the time, just think about it. I wonder what will happen if a monster that has only partially progressed reaches the bone marrow.”
Dame trembled and said almost squeezing.
“Do you know how to do something like this and stay safe? This is the anomaly itself. All members of the Light Paladins will be aiming for your neck!”
“Huh. That’s what my former general manager said.”
Five. I did.
‘That guy. I did the same to the former Alkahad general.’
[Ummm. I said earlier that everyone was suspicious of Patrick’s skills. In the beginning, I was too young to be the head of the department.]
‘okay. He has acquired the capital’s al-Qahad organization in such a number of ways.’
After all, it’s nothing else, and there must be a big person who has endured the gradual transformation of his body into a monster…
“I do not yield to such threats! Even if my body turns into a monster, I will have to punish you.”
is there
Dame is still squeamish.
Despite his sullen cry, Patrick was not at all embarrassed.
“okay. Those words were spoken by the former general manager.”
“What, what?”
“He was willing to give up his life to arrest me. But when I showed you this, I gave up.”
Whoops.
He pulled out a dagger.
Then, suddenly, he lightly scraped his palm with a dagger.

Juruk.Damme reacted as blood flowed and wet the table.
“Ugh!”
He held onto his legs and was in pain.
When I hurriedly looked at the leg, the monster flower that had progressed up to the knee went up to the thigh.
“Do you understand the situation? If you harm me, you will automatically become a monster.”
“……”
“You can’t arrest me, and you can’t reveal my guilt. “Hazard doesn’t just mean physical damage.”
“……”
“Whether my name was lowered or framed… Demonization will proceed even with all the means that you think. You must focus on exalting my name until the day you die.”
busy.
Dame goes for it.
Patrick smiled and continued.
“And by the way, it’s not just al-Qahad.”
“What?”
“There are friends in the Light Paladin who are in the process of becoming monsters. Even among the sons of noble families. Of course, there are people like the president of the company and the chief of the guard.”
“……”
“It means that everyone who opposes or is likely to oppose my rise to the position of general manager will have bandages wrapped around their bodies somewhere by now. 👀”
“……”
“What do you think? Now, with one heart and one will, won’t you all bless me for being the leader?”
I had no choice but to stick my tongue out at his viciousness.
Patrick’s right eye.
The Jewel of Corruption can be transformed into a tree or a rock, a human or a monster, or even a black sun.
Of course, even with the human eye.
In other words……
‘Patrick’s eyes are the jewel of corruption, the black sun that appeared in the capital before his return.’
Well.
The Jewel of Desolation I got from King Wu is really useful.
The Jewel of Corruption seems to have endless uses.
To be honest, when I first came to the capital, I just thought that I had to deal with the Black Sun somehow.
No matter how much me, I never thought of getting the sun.
[ok? are you?]
I replied with a grin.
‘If the eye color is enough, you can carry it, right?’
