121. House Blaga (1)
A month later, Kwon Kwon-wool boarded a private plane leaving for the Pacific Ocean to participate in the Sky Arena.
There was still more time before the arena opened, but it didn’t seem like a bad idea to arrive at the site and prepare in advance.
“Wow… … To see the Sky Arena with my own eyes.”
In the flying private plane, Kwon Hu-don said as if it was a dream.
“It’s not like Hudon oppa is participating. Why are you so nervous?”
“Yeah, but… … .”
At Mei Hong’s scolding, Kwon Hu-don said in a stern voice.
“Isn’t it the sky arena? Just being able to see it in person is a wonderful thing… … .”
The sky arena could be said to be the largest and most famous among the tournaments held on Earth.
The fact that it is an unidentified dungeon that appears periodically is enough to attract attention.
Hunters belonging to famous guilds and families gather in one place and even compete.
In addition, since the dungeon can be observed from the outside, you can watch the scene.
It was a place where the attention of the world could not help but be focused.
“To think that Hanul represented the family in such a place… … .”
Kwon Ho-don looked at Kwon-wool with eyes full of awe.
Kwon Kwon-wool averted his gaze because it was too burdensome.
“Captain.”
Then Gael Garcian, who was sitting on the other side, started talking to me.
But why was his expression strange?
It was the same as usual, with a statue-like face, but the eyes were shining brightly and the cheeks were slightly flushed.
“To be able to see with my own eyes the sky arena that I had only heard about on the island. I am thrilled.”
“Ah, come to think of it, Gael said he was confined on an island.”
Gael Garcian nodded slightly.
“There are over 20 families and guilds that have declared to participate this time! I am especially looking forward to the Babel family!”
Where did you abandon your reticent attitude? Gael Garcian was talking nonstop.
But he couldn’t tell them to stop, so Kwon Wol just listened with a wry smile.
Although he did not show it, Kwon Kwon-wool was also looking forward to this heavenly arena.
No, rather than anticipation, should I say nervous?
It was because of what I heard from Myeong-woo Kwon when I was learning ink dyeing.
-I wonder if my older brother let you participate in the Sky Arena with the intention of completely shaking off the label of being a child of a traitor at this opportunity.
From noble mtl dot com.
After completing the transmission of ink dye, Kwon Myung-woo said so in a serious voice.
-Your brother didn’t tell you, but this time, Meishiao’s reputation was seriously damaged by the raid.
Since the blood relatives of the extinct family were slaughtered, it had no choice but to do so.
-But if you win the Sky Arena, you can regain your lost reputation. No, the status will be higher than before.
By doing so, Kwon-wool changes from a traitor’s son to a hero who shines the family.
What I didn’t understand was why Kwon Sun-woo cared so much about him.
When we first met, he acted so coldly. No, it’s not just the first time. Seonwoo Kwon always acted like that.
It wasn’t even that I could hear the situation coolly.
-Your brother is doing Cheon-i’s work… … No, I’m not qualified to say this.
Gwon-ul leaned back on the chair.
To be honest, I’ve never cared about being accused of being the son of a traitor.
Kwon-wool’s goal was not to clear his father’s stigma, but to rise to the pinnacle of darkness.
“What are you thinking for so long?”
Before I knew it, I put down the teacup on the juhayeon and said. Gwon-ul expressed his gratitude and raised the cup.
“I was thinking about Sky Arena.”
“If you’re at Kwon Han-ul’s level, there’s nothing to worry about.”
“But there is such a thing as an if.”
Gwon-ul took a sip of the tea and put it in his mouth. A refreshing scent spread throughout the mouth.
“You can always drink the tea that Hayeon brews… … .”
I was going to say the best. But my mouth was stiff and I couldn’t finish my words.
It wasn’t just the mouth. My whole body was paralyzed and I couldn’t lift a finger.
The only thing that could move was the eyes. He lowered his eyes and looked at his body.
Then, he saw rings made of light dust wrapped around his limbs and torso.
‘What is this… … .’
Kwon-wool waited for Joo Ha-yeon to help him. But something was strange.
“I checked the information of the participants identified by the information department of Heukcheon, but there was no one who could stand up to Mr. Kwon-ul.”
Despite being in front of her eyes, Joo Ha-yeon was talking about something else without noticing Kwon-ul’s condition.
It wasn’t just Joo Ha-yeon. No one on the plane noticed Gwon-ul’s condition.
“There is only one risky player, though. They said that a direct disciple of Dragon Slayer would participate. Perhaps Kwon Wol-nim has heard of it… … .”
My eyes flashed. It was blinding and I couldn’t see anything.
The flash lasted a long time. When the light eventually disappeared, Gwon-ul Kwon was in a completely different place, not on the plane.
A room entirely decorated with red silk and ornaments.
was sitting there
“How did this happen… … .”
Mouth moved. The body also moved. It was when Kwon Wol was perplexed.
“oh.”
A familiar, but unpleasant voice was heard.
I moved my gaze to the side. I saw a woman lying languidly on the long sofa.
“It’s really nice to see you again.”
Catalina Blaga.
The moment he saw her face, all of Kwon-wool’s senses were sharpened.
Instinctively, I tried to get out of the seat by raising the yongmagi.
Then, someone grabbed my shoulder from behind and pressed me.
Tremendous magic power pressed down on Kwon-ul’s body. Kwon-wool was forced back into the chair.
Looking up, I saw a man with scars on his face.
“In front of Lady Catalina Blaga. Please don’t be rude.”
The man’s energy entwined Kwon-wool.
It was similar to when I met Kwon Myung-woo. This man also meant that he had risen to the top.
“Troy. Don’t be too rough. You are a very honored guest.”
At those words, the man immediately put Kwon-ul on his shoulder. Then he bent down with his arms folded.
Gwonwool touched his shoulder. I was only held for a moment, but my bones ached.
“Catalina Blaga, what are you doing?”
“Are you going to talk that hard between us?”
Catalina Blaga said with regret.
“You can call me Cathy. Everyone I’m close with calls me that. Yes. Troy?”
Troy bowed again. Seeing that, Catalina Blaga smiled.
“Don’t be mean.”
Swear words came out spontaneously. At that moment, Troy, who was behind him, breathed life.
The killing spree emitted by those who reached the state was itself a weapon. A sharp pain that seemed to peel off the skin all over his body hit Kwon-wool.
Kwon Kwon-ul gritted his teeth and endured living. It was fortunate that I had experienced the life of Kwon Myung-woo in advance. Compared to that, it was still far off.
“How did you kidnap me? Tell me why you kidnapped her and where you are.”
“Oh, it looks like I’m being interrogated.”
As if the situation was amusing, Catalina Blaga burst into laughter.
“Shall I tell you how you kidnapped me first? If I tell you in detail, it’s not enough to use the whole day, so I’ll just give you a rough summary.”
Catalina Blaga began to explain with a face that looked like she was going crazy with joy.
“First of all, blood relatives of the Blaga family were scattered around the Heukcheon family. It is impossible to control the people within the Black Chun family, but it is possible to control the people involved.”
Catalina Blaga did not sit still as she spoke. It was like looking at an excited child.
“What by dominating the people involved? You might think like this. Obviously, there is very little information you can get from people around you. But when you scrape together such information, you get an outline.”
The Blaga family has an excellent ability to handle information.
Gathering and collating information would have been easy.
“Thanks to that, I was able to pinpoint the date and flight route of Little Dragon leaving the Heukcheon family. We started working on that information.”
A deep smile appeared on Catalina Blaga’s lips.
“After waiting at the place where the plane passes, I prepared the artifacts. Do you know what artifacts were used? Pick out the location of the object, disable it, show hallucinations to the people around you, and finally move the object.”
While talking, Catalina Blaga folded her fingers one by one.
“All of them were disposable and installed, so it was very difficult to use them. But it didn’t matter. We had plenty of time to prepare.”
When he spoke, Catalina Blaga’s face began to come to mind.
“They are all expensive relics, so if you put them all together, you could buy an entire city. Not joking, for real.”
It was only then that Kwon-wool realized why she had explained everything in detail.
It’s something you want to brag about.
The fact that I did this far because of you.
“Why did you do that?”
I didn’t understand at all.
Even though Catalina Blaga is called a human collector, it did not make sense to invest such a huge amount of money just because of one person.
“That’s because you are true blood.”
And the moment he heard Catalina Blaga’s answer, Kwon Wol’s mind went blank for a moment.
“How can I… … .”
“Your vice president told me.”
“This crazy.”
Even though Kwon Hyuk was mentioned, Kwon Wool was not surprised but rather cursed.
No matter how much he didn’t like himself, it was insane to reveal that secret to another family.
“You can get a person with true black dragon blood. Isn’t this worth doing?”
Catalina Blaga rose from the couch.
With just a little movement, a sweet scent wafted out. The closer she got, the thicker the scent.
“I hate myself now, but that’s only for a moment. Everyone hates me at first, just like you, but once I became a member of my household, I became the happiest people in the world.”
“It sounds terrible just to hear it.”
Catalina Blaga burst into laughter. Then he suddenly stopped laughing and looked at Kwon-wool.
Both eyes were stained pink.
It meant that he was using the authority of his family, but nothing changed.
“As expected, my control doesn’t work. Is it true blood?”
Catalina Blaga stretched out her fingers and touched the hem of Kwon Wool’s clothes. Kwon-wool made a displeased expression.
“Don’t even think about running away. It’s on the boat here. Besides, my people, including Troy, will be watching you.”
“Where are you taking me?”
“The Blaga family. From there, I will make you subordinate to me step by step.”
Catalina Blaga winked at Troy. Troy put thick handcuffs on Kwon Kwon-ul’s wrists.
“It’s a restraint that limits magical power. ‘Cause I can never break it Don’t suffer needlessly.”
Catalina Blaga left the room with Troy.
Left alone, Gwon-ul stood up and looked out the window.
They said it was on a boat, and they could only see the sea.
Then, the door burst open again. A man I had never seen before came inside.
As soon as he saw Kwon-wool, the man frowned.
“My name is Ben Blaga. I will watch over you and wait on you until you reach the family.”
It was extremely rude for a waiter.
“I am a pureblood of the Blaga family and have been knighted.”
Hearing the man’s identity, Kwon-wool was puzzled. Because it was not a position to wait on.
“Do you know why I explained the name, location, and title? If it wasn’t for Catalina Blaga’s orders, you and the like wouldn’t have been able to look up to me, so it means to figure out the subject.”
He was a man who spoke at length about taking out his anger.
“I am Gwonwool. He is a direct blood relative of the Heukcheon family and is in charge of the captain of the Dark Army.”
“What do you mean?”
“It means that you should be careful with your words because you are not in a position to speak carelessly.”
At that, Ben Blaga let out a ridiculous laugh.
“Looking at it now, he was an idiot who didn’t even know what situation he was in. You are now Catalina Blaga’s family.”
“Not yet.”
“But someday it will.”
said Ben Blaga as he moved on.
“The Blaga family has one rule. This is arguably the most important rule. All members of the household must obey their blood relatives. Even if it’s mixed blood.”
Ben Blaga grabbed Kwon Wool’s head. shook it wildly
“In a word, it means that all family members are below blood relatives. The same goes for Catalina Blaga-sama. Do you understand the subject now?”
Ben Blaga pushed Kwon Wool’s head with all his might. And slumped down in the chair.
“If you want to live comfortably in the Blaga family, you’d better keep quiet and follow my words from now on.”
Ben Blaga rummaged through his pockets and pulled out a metal cigarette case. Putting a cigarette in his mouth, he ordered Kwon Wool.
“If you know, go get an ashtray.”
Gwonwool did not follow the order. Instead, he asked Ben Blaga.
“Does it taste that good?”
“this? nothing to say It’s not an ordinary cigarette, it’s a special order product. It was made using plants from the dungeon.”
Ben Blaga pulled out a lighter. I was about to light the fire, but Kwon-wool opened his mouth again.
“I’ve never smoked, so I don’t know… … One cigarette, please.”
“You haven’t tried this good thing yet?”
Ben Blaga obediently held out a pack of cigarettes to Kwon Wool.
There was quite a distance between the two. Someone had to move to pick up a cigarette.
“What are you doing? take it quickly.”
Ben Blaga waved the pack of cigarettes, as if telling them to go. Then Kwon-wool said.
“Bring it from there.”
“Being a nuisance.”
Ben Blaga stood up and handed out a pack of cigarettes.
However, Kwon-wool did not pick up a cigarette this time either.
He said, holding out two fingers.
“Put it on.”
Ben Blaga himself took a cigarette out of his cigarette pack and put it between his fingers.
In that moment, I suddenly came to my senses.
Why are you doing what Gwonwool tells you to do?
“What if I put a cigarette on it? We have to light it.”
Gwon-ul said as he smoked a cigarette.
At that moment, anger welled up in Ben Blaga’s heart.
“Where does a relative give an order to a blood relative… .”
Just as he was about to shout, his eyes met Kwon Wol’s.
The eyes, which were clearly black, were stained red. Upon seeing this, Ben Blaga exclaimed in bewilderment.
“Guo, Kwon Sokhyeol? uh, how… … .”
“fire.”
The moment he heard that, Ben Blaga couldn’t think of anything.
A huge wave swept through Ben Blaga’s interior. All thoughts and feelings were swept away by the waves.
Ben Blaga carefully lit a cigarette as he knelt on the floor.
After taking a sip of his cigarette, Kwon Wool frowned.
“It just tastes like smoke, right? Bring an ashtray.”
Ben Blaga hurriedly rose from his seat. I looked for an ashtray, but it was nowhere to be seen in the room.
“I told you to bring it.”
Gwon-ul said again. Ben Blaga held out his hands. Gwon-ul rubbed the cigarette on the palm of his hand and extinguished it.
“Take it away.”
Ben Blaga backed away, clutching his cigarette. When he disappeared, Gwon-ul put his chin on his chin and muttered.
“Well then, what shall we do from now on?”
