The Sub-Protagonist Is Retiring chapter 177

177 - 170.Advanced Course-3

177 – 170.Advanced Course-3

“I knew you were crazy, but I never thought you would use necromancy casually… ….”

“Isn’t it time to cover the means?”

“It is better to show the least mercy to the enemy and kill them gracefully… ….”

“On the day I kill Ignit with my own hands, I plan to return it to the earth. Until then, I will have to work hard as my long-term partner.”

Three days have passed since the first plan ended.

The dispatched envoy of the Red Scales went missing after leaving Yuran.

Rumors circulated that the Assassins of New Moon, who made some sort of deal with them, were killed by the Red Scales.

As an assassination group, Sakwol did not make any external gestures, but it must have started an investigation.

I took the lead in all of this, but I didn’t step on my tail because I mobilized a lot of manpower to cleanly dispose of the evidence.

“By the way, he manages to take some prominent guys with him.”

Sestia, who was sipping black tea, looked behind me.

There stood the headless envoys with red scales who had been treated as missing.

Those who died in the state of dragonutes due to ingesting red scales were bizarre beings who formed a trinity of dragons, humans, and the undead.

“Because I usually hide it in a demonic sword.”

“Hidden in a magic sword?”

“Yes. Necromancer was also used through the demonic sword, not me.”

[Whoops… ! Very good, let’s spread the power of this body! Contractor!]

As she wished, I took her out of her scabbard and held her.

Even if she didn’t say what she was going to do, Prach, who knew it, flashed her first rune.

“The floor might be damaged. Is that okay?”

“It doesn’t matter. It’s enough to fix the floor, but the curiosity can’t be solved if it’s not now.”

“In that case…… Whoops!”

He raised his sword high and then slammed it down.

Kwajik-!

Prach penetrated the floor and created a jet-black subspace portal on the floor.

One by one, her bony arms stretched out from the black portal that was as muddy as a swamp.

Along with the stench of rotting flesh and crackling bone cries, the arms pulled themselves up while touching the floor.

With zombies and skeletons appearing one after another, even the rare Death Knight appeared.

Cestia’s eyebrows twitched as she showed a dry reaction even when she saw Dragnewt.

Even if she is her, her Death Knight is a power that cannot be ignored.

Even that Death Knight was nothing more than a faithful servant who knelt before me and waited for my command.

“You must have been sincere when you said you were going to war.”

“Did you ever think I was lying?”

“Because I didn’t show any decent military strength. I thought you mistook the assassination for war.”

“That is too much. I know how to discern between self-interest and right?”

I licked my tongue and dipped the tea into my mouth.

I felt the black tea a bit bitter because I was ignored in front of my face.

I took out a couple of sugar cubes from the pottery and put them in the tea.

I still felt the bitter taste at the end.

“Because I know how strong your army is. Can you please send it back now? Because the rotten me inside the room vibrates?”

Damn-!

As soon as they snapped their fingers, the kneeling undead began to be sucked into the swamp all at once.

After all the undead disappeared, Prach, who created the portal, came out of the floor and came into my grasp.

“So what are you going to do with the undead from before?”

“I’m not going to make a big move right now. If I put my body out for nothing, I might get caught by the collar.”

“I am surprised. I thought you would say that you have to take advantage of the current momentum and squeeze even harder.”

“The only thing that needs to be choked is your lower mouth.”

“…… Low quality.”

“This is revenge for ignoring me earlier.”

Sestia blushes and frowns at my s*xual harassment.

After seeing that, I felt relieved.

Huruk-!

I finally felt the sweetness of the black tea.

“Anyway, I plan to keep quiet for the time being and leave for the Mage Tower in about two weeks.”

“Is that okay? Isn’t that the enemy’s base?”

“I have to take some risks for the cause. Besides, the Cold War continues. Someone has to light the fuse to start a war.”

“If you decide, I won’t stop you, but… ….”

“What? Were you worried about me?”

“Who cares about you?!”

Sestia jumped up, stamping her palms on her table.

Her face was still red, she hurriedly denied it, but rather, only reasonable doubts arose.

She likes being honest like Lyn and Renee, but sometimes a woman who is squeamish like Cestia isn’t bad either.

Unknowingly, the corner of her mouth twitched, and thanks to her, I was able to catch the cushion on her sofa with her face.

“If you’re done with your business, leave now! Because I have to deal with backlogs too!”

“Okay.”

Shaking her knees, she rose from her seat.

The moment I turned my back on Sestia and pulled her doorknob.

A small murmur was heard from behind.

“Don’t overdo it…… “

“You are right to be concerned. I’m really not being honest!”

“Go away!”

To avoid the flying cushion again, I quickly closed the door and left.

With a smile, I returned to the inn where Rin and Rene were waiting.

Sometimes I need to take the advice and take a good rest.

***

To begin with, I couldn’t rest at all.

When I arrived at the inn, there was a person waiting for me leaning against the entrance.

It was Hyesha wearing a red eyepatch.

“What? Does the curse still remain?”

I received the report from the academy that I was cured. Is it strange?

Looking meaningfully at Hyesha’s face with her eyepatch on, she sighed.

She immediately put his thumb in her eyepatch and pulled it off over her.

There was no transformation that appeared when she took off her eyepatch, just a normal woman’s face.

“As you can see, I am completely healed.”

“But why are you wearing an eyepatch?”

“It’s a habit. After living with her eyepatch for a long time, it felt empty without it.”

“I’m misleading people.”

“I apologize if I offended you.”

From noble mtl dot com

I walked past Hyesha and entered the inn.

Thanks to the charter, there are no other guests, but the owner of the inn remains.

I have something urgent to tell him, so he asked me to leave.

“Yes? Trouble! Do you have to prepare the bar for dinner soon?”

Jjallang-!

“We will be temporarily closed today. I’ll be back from binge-playing at the casino, so have a good time.”

After tossing in a few gold coins, the innkeeper changed the sign at the entrance to ‘Closed’ and left.

After all, money is the best, thrilling!

As I shuddered with thrilling pleasure, I heard a deep sigh from behind.

“I already know, but your personality is also very dirty.”

“Money sh*t has been one of the few pleasures and dreams of my life.”

“I hope you can make your dreams come true.”

It was a sarcastic tone, but I didn’t feel particularly offended.

Because I actually became a millionaire and went on all kinds of eccentricities.

Of course, the funding was provided by other people, not me.

It may be shameless, but for the sake of the cause, he covered his face with shameless blood.

“Then why did you come to see me? Oh, maybe thank you for healing the curse?”

“You’re already drinking beef stew without the onions.”

In Korean terms, would that mean that you are drinking kimchi soup first?

Anyway, the meaning of my misunderstanding was conveyed to me.

“I came to inform you because I found the whereabouts of the demonic swords you wanted so much. After diligent searching, I found a couple of them. “

“Ooh.”

“However, it is unclear whether one of them can be regarded as a demonic sword… ….”

“Why?”

“It’s an artificial sword created by the Master of the Magic Tower. It’s a rumor, but they say it was made by offering countless demons as sacrifices.”

“Hmm….”

I kneaded under his chin for a while and pondered.

Can Prach absorb artificial swords as well?

It was an unknown result for me, so I asked myself.

[Can absorb any sword other than the Holy Sword. In particular, even if a demonic sword is made by a human, it seems that the absorption rate is excellent as the power that serves as the basis is demonic.]

‘It must be delicious.’

[Ah, it’s like a dinner.]

I didn’t show it, but I felt better at the thought of making a masterpiece.

I’ve already been looking forward to the day I leave for the Magic Tower.

“Aren’t you confused? Even if it’s a demon, it’s a sword made by sacrificing a living creature.”

“Huh? Were you thinking about how to steal it from the owner of the Mage Tower?”

“…… Okay.”

Looking at my expression as I was seriously struggling, it must have been a misunderstanding.

I am not a person full of love for humanity.

I don’t care if it’s made with the blood of tens of thousands or if it has a tragic history.

I don’t care about the means as long as I can use them for my goals.

“Is there a demonic sword other than an artificial sword?”

“I’m from the south, but it would be better to give up this demonic sword.”

“Let me put your comments aside and tell me exactly where you are.”

“The Blue Dragon’s Lair.”

“Oh….”

As soon as I heard the news, I contacted Sestia using messenger magic.

I can’t use it when the distance is far, but now I’m in the same city, so I connected without any problems.

[What’s up?]

“What if I tell the blue dragon that your daughter is delicious?”

[…] … Should I send condolence money to my father?]

It’s not easy.
