Episode 45: Jealousy (3)
It was a shame.
I thought that Catalina Blaga would intervene in some way, but I didn’t expect it to be so violent.
‘I can’t move.’
No matter how hard I tried, my fists didn’t move as if they were fixed to the wall.
“Lady Catalina! Let go of my hand!”
Suddenly, Ruin Aspadam’s shouts were heard. The sound woke Kwon-ul from his thoughts.
“That cheeky bastard must be with my own hands… … .”
“Louin, lie down.”
Just one word.
With that one word, Ruin Aspadam immediately hit his forehead on the ground.
It wasn’t because of loyalty. The authority of Kwon Sokhyeol was manifested.
“Little Dragon. I’m sorry. I hope you understand. This happened because Ruin cared for me so much.”
Catalina Blaga smiled and released Kwon Wol’s fist. It was only then that Kwon-ul was able to move his hand.
“You need to manage your load well.”
“Bukhara-nyo. Ruin and I are sincere partners.”
Instead of answering, Kwon-wool glanced at Ruin Aspadam.
What is a partner in that appearance where you put your head down at a word?
“Anyway, I’ll take care of this. So, why don’t you tell the witch in the dark sky to reap her magic?”
Only then did Kwon-ul notice. Joo Ha-yeon’s magic was raging throughout the restaurant.
the air has changed It wasn’t on that level. It seemed to be submerged in water. To that extent, the mana that Joo Ha-yeon exuded was intense.
I forgot.
Joo Ha-yeon is a hunter who worked together and was closest to the president, Kwon Seon-woo.
Her momentum was comparable to that of Catalina Blaga.
“Miss Hayeon.”
“Not until that woman backs down.”
“They say so.”
Gwon-ul said bluntly. In fact, he had no intention of getting over this for good.
With just one word, Catalina Blaga made Ruin Aspadam fall.
This is because it means that Satan was left alone even though he could have been stopped before he was born.
“I’ve firmly bought hatred. Um, what should I do?”
Catalina Blaga grabbed her right forearm with her left hand.
Uduk.
With a short but impressive sound, Catalina Blaga’s arm was ripped from the shoulder.
Blood gushed from the cross section. Fallen blood stained the floor.
“Can I ask for forgiveness for this?”
Catalina Blaga smiled casually and said. Once again, Kwon-ul’s face turned hard.
“Ah, don’t worry about this. If you give it a little bit of force… … .”
Scary to speak, the torn off part began to regenerate.
Veins and muscles began to proliferate on their own, bones grew back, and in the blink of an eye, the right arm was made up of a forearm.
‘… … What is that?’
Reviving a body that has disappeared is not an easy task, even with the help of relics in the dungeon.
It is even more difficult to reproduce at such a high speed.
‘Come to think of it, I heard that there is something called immortality among the powers of the family members.’
The dominance of a family member does not extend only to others. You will be able to completely control your own body and give orders.
That tremendous regenerative power was also one of the powers obtained by controlling one’s own body.
“Well, there is no point in being punished for this.”
Uduk.
Catalina Blaga ripped off her arm once more.
It was a truly grotesque sight to see a woman tearing off her own arm twice.
“I will live on one arm for the next week. Would this have conveyed my sincerity?”
“… … That sounds like enough.”
“Be merciful too.”
Catalina Blaga smiled brightly. With blood dripping from his blunt shoulder.
“I’ll just go.”
“Then see you in the morning.”
All I have to do is bet on it tomorrow morning.
How dare you continue to bet after going through such a nasty thing.
Catalina Blaga’s attitude was absurd, but at the same time I thought it was an opportunity to settle the confrontation with Ruin Aspadam.
“Yes, I will see you tomorrow.”
After finishing the answer, Kwon Wool immediately left the restaurant.
I spoke to Joo Ha-yeon in the elevator going up to the suite.
“What is your intention?”
Putting aside the sudden appearance, the sponsorship offer.
From noble mtl dot com.
“I am saying that all of this is a coincidence… … Common sense makes it impossible.”
Everything was clearly intended by Catalina Blaga.
However, there was something I couldn’t understand.
“What do you want to achieve by doing this?”
“Even though Catalina Blaga is a mysterious woman, her purpose will be simple. It must be to make Kwon Wol obey.”
“Is that why you’re making this mess?”
“You may not understand, but Catalina Blaga has done something like this countless times before.”
His nickname is Human Collector, so it’s shocking.
“Moreover, Kwon Gwon-ul has overcome Catalina Blaga’s domination. No wonder Catalina Blaga would be interested.”
Looking back on her memories, Catalina Blaga has used the authority of her vassal blood over and over again.
What if the reason is to make sure that the domination really isn’t working?
“You’re trying to dominate me even though I have a Black Sky family?”
“That is Catalina Blaga. The troublesome thing is that as much as it is bold, it is sure to clean up afterward.”
“Do you want to take care of it?”
“There have been several occasions when Catalina Blaga has touched the talent of the great family. And among them, the one who asked for the sin… … Not once.”
Joo Ha-yeon added, “I had a feeling, but no physical evidence.”
“I should be careful too. The thought of becoming like Ruin Aspadam is terrifying.”
“Do you really think so?”
“What are you talking about?”
“There are so many people in the world who say that Catalina Blaga can be kept in captivity. That’s why her charm as a woman is great, and she holds a lot of power.”
“Ah, where in the world is such a person… … .”
Suddenly, Kwon Ji-seok came to mind. Gwon-wool subtly changed his words.
“… … There should be, but I am not.”
“really?”
“It’s not my taste.”
Gwon-ul shrugged and added.
“I like peers. A woman that old is a bit… … .”
Joo Ha-yeon burst into laughter.
“Oh, but you messed up the restaurant.”
“Do not worry. Because this hotel is owned by Heukcheon Group. Headquarters will take care of it.”
“It’s good when you have a lot of money.”
Kwon Wol giggled and laughed.
“Ah, Mr. Gwonwool.”
“Why are you like that?”
“I am the same age as Kwon Wol.”
Kwon Kwon-ul was surprised by the unexpected confession.
* * *
A messy restaurant.
“Hmmm.”
Catalina Blaga sat in her chair, pounding the ground with her heel. Humming the song seemed very pleasant.
Beside her, Ruin Aspadam knelt with a face covered in humiliation and anger.
“Louin, what do you think?”
“sorry. I failed today, but I’ll definitely kill him next time… … .”
“I am not saying that.”
Catalina Blaga said in an amused voice.
“He withstood my temptations this time too. And twice in a row.”
“That’s because his eyes are knotted! He’s a fool who doesn’t know how to recognize jewels… … .”
“At the Delos auction house, I knew what kind of move Kwon Seon-woo had made. Doesn’t it work even when you’re alone?”
Catalina Blaga continued the story she wanted to tell.
Are you not hearing the words of loyalty? Or are you ignoring it?
“Especially the last one was a bit shocking. I tried to seduce you as a ‘woman’. How can you reject it so easily even though you openly clung to it?”
The dominance of the clan is influenced by several factors.
They can be subdued by violence or dominated by negotiation. Or, as now, you can s*xually seduce them.
That was the way Catalina Blaga was most confident.
Numerous hunters knew about it and even though they thoroughly prepared, they fell for her temptation.
“It felt as if it was useless rather than enduring… … What kind of secret do you have? Could it be that you were born with bloodline and gift at the same time?”
Although extremely rare, there are cases where a person is born with both bloodline and gift.
It is impossible by luck. Since the opening of the dungeon, during human history, such cases have been rare enough to be counted on five fingers.
“If so, it must be a mental gift… … So, did you use the gift to catch the mud troll? I don’t know. There is nothing I can be sure of.”
Catalina Blaga wet her lips with her tongue.
“I like it. It’s the first time I’ve ever had such a coveted treasure. How do I do it? I think I’m going crazy wanting to have it.”
Ruin Aspadam unknowingly swallowed his saliva.
It was because Catalina Blaga’s face showed madness beyond greed.
“The business is over. Now let’s go back to the family.”
“… … yes?”
At Catalina Blaga’s words, Ruin Aspadam couldn’t help but be surprised.
That’s because she hasn’t achieved her goal yet.
“Still little dragon… … You couldn’t get it, did you?”
“Ah, Ruin is also true.”
Catalina Blaga waved her hand as if she was talking nonsense.
“This is Korea. How can we steal the little dragon from the territory of the Black Heaven group?”
“Isn’t that why you joined hands with Kwon Chan-sung? Kwon Chan-sung also offered cooperation in exchange for kidnapping Little Dragon… … .”
“Oh, that man.”
Catalina Blaga gave a look of insignificance.
Catalina Blaga has a lot of interest in talented people, but she was not interested in Kwon Chan-sung at all.
“I don’t know if it’s Kwon Hyuk, but I can’t trust a lump of blood like Kwon Chan-sung. Besides, that man knows how the little dragon can withstand my temptations. You didn’t reveal that secret either, did you?”
The purpose of Catalina Blaga’s actions is simple. But even her heart wasn’t that simple.
“This time, I like it just like this. I confirmed again how brilliant a person he is, and above all… … Did you see the face?”
Ruin Aspadam doubted his eyes. Catalina Blaga’s cheeks flushed slightly.
It was unbelievable.
Was Catalina Blaga blushing somewhere other than on the bed, just for this reason?
Ruin Aspadam trembled. An emotion I had never felt before dominated my whole body.
“early in the morning tomorrow… … Oh right. There was still a bet left.”
Catalina Blaga raised her head as if she had finally remembered it.
“Didn’t the number of mud trolls Little Dragon caught more than double? If the situation had been reversed, I could have insisted that Ruin won the game anyway and ended it early.”
Catalina Blaga let out a short sigh.
“I have no choice but to stay a little longer. Ah, but even if I tried again, wouldn’t Ruin lose anyway?”
“… … no. Tomorrow I will definitely turn the situation around.”
“really? Are you confident?”
Ruin Aspadam shouted, biting his lip.
“certainly! We will try to win!”
“It is a lie.”
Catalina Blaga’s eyes narrowed coldly.
“Luin, what if you think of cheating on me? you know? What do I see in my eyes?”
The clan blood is a lineage that interferes with mental power.
So it was easy to find out the state of emotions and mental power of others.
“Both reason and emotion are shaken. Are you really not confident?”
I wanted to say no.
However, Ruin Aspadam could not open his mouth to the end.
“It is difficult. It doesn’t matter if I pass the white clay, but if Ruin loses, Little Dragon will doubt my eyesight.”
Ruin Aspadam felt unfair.
Are you saying you care about Kwon-wool even in this situation?
“It would be better to leave a good image, right?”
said Catalina Blaga, looking up at the ceiling.
“K. Are you here?”
– Yes, please tell me.
A voice came from empty space.
Ruin Aspadam was startled and looked around. But let alone the appearance, I couldn’t even feel the presence.
Ruin Aspadam was immediately able to recall the identity of this invisible being.
Cavalieri umbra.
Catalina Blaga has special family members who have been together for a long time.
No one knows who they are because their gender, age, and race are all wrapped up in a veil.
The only thing known is that each individual’s skills are amazing.
“I told you to put the kids on standby just in case. How did it go?”
-I’ve already brought two blood relatives. We have also prepared an artifact to use when entering the dungeon.
“It’s great.”
-You’re exaggerating.
After that, no more voices could be heard.
“Then Ruin, shall we go to rest now?”
Catalia Blaga reached out. Ruin Aspadam supported her with a dark face.
“Ruin, you don’t seem to have any energy.”
“no.”
“Is it because I am interested in Little Dragon? It’s disappointing if that’s the case.”
Catalina Blaga hugged Ruin Aspadam by the neck.
Ruin Aspadam’s face turned bright red at the smell of flesh.
“I am. I like a man who is obsessed with me the most.”
Ruin Aspadam’s face turned red.
“The weather is chilly today. It will be cold at night if I am alone.”
“I will serve you with all my heart.”
Ruin Aspadam was at a loss like a naive young man. Catalina Blaga smiled as if her appearance was cute.
