Chapter 634 – Ranker
Teiya lodged a formal complaint against Dre’s actions, which King Nicholas dismissed.
No wonder.
What the Asangyo warrior secretly suggested to Nicholas is that he will take care of the eight days while saving your prestige. So cooperate. Was
Teija seduced him, knowing that the king and Yeodere were not on good terms thanks to his secret and excellent intelligence.
After failing to kill Dre and losing many of his comrades, it was only natural that Teija lost his trust.
By the time he was gnashing his teeth and kicking the table, taking out his anger on poor furniture and women, thinking of useless ‘collaborators’.
“Wasn’t that a bit harsh?”
Katz said to Dre.
The two walk side by side down the aisle.
What they were walking through was a hideout that Kitz had secretly created.
“Was it bad?”
“It was severe. Wouldn’t it be better to refrain from doing cruel things, at least in public places?”
“Why?”
“As for reputation.
Katz thought it would be okay this time.
Because the girls around Dre were very wise.
Simply put, it was an incident in which a warrior from another castle suddenly attacked, and was counterattacked.
But even a little thought made it clear that Teija’s intentions were impure.
Teiya was self-employed.
He tried to harm Dre to provoke Narnia and Kitz, but he was reversed.
And Dre was well aware of that.
“Is your excessive behavior because you felt ill will?”
Dre nodded at Katz’s question.
“I got a rough sense of his fucking intentions.”
It was different from the rankers I fought with.
They were fighting with their strength.
As an example, the arrow that was first shot and hit Rald. No matter how hard that dwarf girl was, if she shot properly, she wouldn’t have been so fine.
If he had worked together in earnest even when he surrounded Dre, he might not be a man of this world by now.
But the rankers had their hands on it.
Even Maiya, the most emotional of them all, did.
But Teija was different.
There was obvious malice.
Dre noticed it like a ghost, and although he didn’t know the intention of having his hand, it was good intention to the goodwill of the rankers who kept the line. He had repaid Teiya’s malice with malice.
Dre didn’t think he was wrong.
As Kaitz thought, the girls didn’t think Dre was at fault.
They also sensed suspiciousness and impure intentions towards the hero who suddenly appeared.
From the first appearance of Teija, he came out with a full set of shooting tools and his own power, and he had a snake-like gaze, so he couldn’t help but notice.
When it comes to human ugliness and politics, the fact that most of them were aristocratic girls who had gone through as much prenatal trouble as Dre did, also helped to understand the situation correctly, and made me think that Dre’s actions were self-defense.
Of course, she was a little frightened by his brutal behavior.
Rumored to be cruel, it was hard to regard him as the cruel protagonist of rumors, as he was overflowing with a blunt side when actually experiencing it.
In the tragedy of Sers, who could see his cruelty, it was rare to see him directly tortured, and there was a strong consciousness that everyone in the kingdom was together, not just him.
But this time, Dre alone, used realistic violence.
He was just scared.
However, the girls who thought Dre was there to protect them felt more gratitude than fear or unfamiliarity.
‘Even if it’s not something trivial like that, it won’t matter if it’s the mental strength of the Elyunar people.’
The Elyunar people are different from normal humans.
His mental strength is not average, and he won’t easily suspect someone he trusted once.
“You don’t have to worry about the feud between you and your target.”
“I see. You weren’t worried about me, were you worried about the quest…”
Kitz chewed on Dre’s words and said.
“And I’d like to add that there’s no need to feel guilty about those women. Aesangyo’s warrior party called Dreams was notorious for being cruel beyond necessity.”
Dreams who were robbed by Dre’s hands had been arrogant and brutal in the name of mission, contrary to their beautiful appearance.
Dre, who had no room for sympathy for her because she was even more so than her boyfriend and colleague Taiya, and who had no guilt in the first place, blinked her eyes.
“I could tell right away that they were bitches. So why did you slap me on the back then?”
“…”
“…Don’t you talk?’
Katz said, slightly ignoring Dre, who clenched her fist.
“You told the community about Askatlov without my permission…”
“…”
Convince.
Dre stopped clenching her fists and clicked her tongue.
“Then why did you tell me the information about the King?”
“You. Have you ever told the community about Askatlov?” “? I didn’t.” “Yeah. Well, try it this time. How it goes.”
Katz opened her mouth.
It was easy to ask for just that reason… But somehow I thought that this guy’s judgment was correct.
The two of them walk down the hallway without speaking for a moment.
Dre was the first to speak.
“… Hey Kitz.”
“Hmm?”
“You’ve fought a lot with Askatlov.”
“It did.”
“The illusion of Askatlov who fought me before. Does it look exactly like that?”
“It was.”
Dre was silent for a moment.
“Did you see anything?”
“No, no… I saw Askatlov in the Magic Stone Forest, but it was a little different from what I thought. He was strong, but he was a little, no, much weaker than I expected.”
Kitz said um… Groaned.
“When I took his core, he was in a state of absurdly weak due to restrictions. Even now that he is completely sealed, he must be in a similar state to being restricted. I can’t help thinking that he is weaker than I thought.”
“Okay…?”
Still, a feeling of embarrassment remained.
Seeing Dre thinking, Katz opened her mouth.
“It’s okay. There’s nothing special about Askatlov over dozens or hundreds of episodes.”
The moment he said that, the two of them arrived in a certain room.
And when I opened the door with all my might, what was there… Were the rankers. And they were the girls who were waiting for Dre.
“Dren!”
“Dret!”
“I’m an instructor~”
Surprisingly, for some reason, Remi was added to all the dates.
There was no disgust in the eyes of the girls who saw Dre.
As Kitz predicted, they were grateful to Dre, and most of them were even aware of Dreams’ notoriety.
Dre is often forgotten, but they are all children of noble families, and it is thanks to them that they lived in an environment where they would be saddened if they were second to the situation or the person to keep an eye on.
But looking at their reactions now, I didn’t need a reason in the first place.
Katz narrowed her eyes.
‘The eight-year-old guy got a bean pod.’
Far from doubting Dre, his eyes were like a fanatic.
It is usually the eyes of love.
Even if it was Dre’s fault, they would have supported him.
Dre lowered her head as if she had no face with them… And saw the rankers sitting in front of them with awkward expressions.
“Oh, hello~”
“…Chit.”
Adele awkwardly raised her hand and Maya, who was sitting slumped in her chair, clicked her tongue.
They are currently detained in this mansion.
Although he said he did not know the circumstances, he did not look closely and recklessly started sparring, so he could not be treated well.
At least, it was extenuating circumstances because the man who had taken measures to ensure that there were no people before sparring in the city center or that it would be okay to sparring was so certain and had a huge identity.
“I don’t think the white horse would tell lies…”
“That’s right.”
At Kowski’s awkward lamentation, Adele quickly agreed and looked at Dre.
It was unfair.
She thought it was fun sparring with Dre.
Being a fan was sincere, and I admired his skills and possibilities beyond my imagination.
But the first button was sewn wrong.
One of the owners of the Mage Tower, the holy land of magicians, who said he would arrange sparring with Dre and would like to collaborate. The White Horse was approaching.
In fact, she should have known it properly beforehand.
It was too hasty.
It was a mistake to take it as a proposal from Baekmaju, who had been with Geomil for a long time.
However, as I said before, the value of the name Baekmaju was unbelievably huge to lie, and there was no corner to benefit from telling lies.
Also, the rankers were in a hurry to be deceived.
Information about Askatlov hinted at by Dre.
As a result of comparing with the fragmentary information that users have, it was concluded that all of them were true, and Dre’s stock price soared among users.
He thought that if he collaborated with him, he would be able to get a higher reward by engaging in subjugation more advantageously.
The rankers were also desperate to close the gap with the almost fixed 1st, 2nd, and 3rd rankers.
Dre looked at the girls every once in a while whether Adele looked at her or not.
By the way, Flareon ignored Dre and yawned, and Insus only made eye contact for a particularly long time.
Seeing her eyes twinkle red, it was as if she was using a demonic eye.
Dre said with a grin.
“Thank you all. I’m sorry I ruined your date today… We’ll talk about it separately later. Please go home.”
Mayal or Clarir hesitated for a moment, but then left the room.
As soon as I confirmed that everything was gone, Paltra, who had been sitting on a sand throne, exclaimed. He snorted.
“I heard that you are intimate with the teenage girls, but was it a swallow?”
“…”
“Is that scary dreamer yours too?”
Scary nightmare.
Inserts.
She didn’t show up when fighting the ranker, but she was actually performing a mental attack.
He didn’t know it, but if the fight had continued, the rankers would have suffered psychological damage… Only Paltra could have known.
She thought that the battle against Gundre, which Paltra did not actively engage in, was just sparring, and she prepared a powerful curse, but in fact, it was because she was blocking Insus’ attack.
The two were fighting in the inner world, not in reality.
She mummified Insus, but then Paltra herself dried up and twisted… It’s a memory she doesn’t really want to think about.
“Isn’t the level of the students too high?!”
Adele raised her voice to break her awkwardness.
No matter how much she is a student at Pryu Nar Academy, she is equal to the famous rankers in the world.
Instead of answering the adventurer’s bright voice, Dre glanced at them with a nonchalant look.
At that gaze, the rankers shrank.
“I don’t see one.”
“Ah… Mr. Osard… Is back.”
“I was detained?”
“Ummm…”
Adele was desperate for an answer.
Frankly, anyone here could have bypassed detention and returned home.
However, in that case, the difficulties of formal entry into Sers would arise due to the deterioration of honor.
Now that it was confirmed that the subjugation of Askatlov would take place in Sers, Osard’s actions could only be seen as foolish.
‘Even if you act as a careless person, you have the confidence to handle it. Or, there’s something stabbed.’
Adele looked at Dre’s expression, recalling his strange behavior.
Unlike the time when O’Brien’s words were blown, there was no cruelty or playfulness.
Just expressionless.
The rankers felt that now was the most creepy.
His essence is like this…
Maya didn’t like her feelings.
He didn’t even know his name, and he didn’t want to think that he was frightened by a kid who showed up less than a year ago, and he let it out.
“Tch. Boil or starve, do whatever you want.”
“That will hurt.”
“Huh?”
Dre, who answered Maya’s words as if he had experienced them himself, suddenly lowered his head.
“Sorry!”
Rankers with question marks on their heads.
Observer O’Brien cautiously opened his mouth.
“That… I didn’t know the circumstances, but we were the ones who attacked first…”
“Hmph! Does that make sense?”
Pristan snorted him.
“How can a user not know about sparring rights…Eup.”
Faltra’s sand covered Pristan’s mouth.
‘The atmosphere is going well, but this idiot.’
Dre looked at them and put on an apologetic face.
“It’s true, though, that I acted excessively. Also, I used you guys to trick someone who didn’t know if it was the hero or the fucking sun.”
Dre was convinced by Teiya’s actions and glances that he harbored some sort of rivalry with Kitz.
I didn’t want to raise my guard by unnecessarily showing a friendly side to a ranker to that guy who cooperated with others to set a trap.
When I said something to the effect that I wanted to confuse him by secretly becoming friends with him, the rankers agreed.
“Thank you for forgiving me!”
“…Um. I wasn’t like an adult either. I’m sorry.”
“Joy!”
“I will forgive you and apologize.”
“Thank you. Mr. Yeodere.”
“Chit.”
Adele. Kowski. Pristan. Faltra. O’Brien. Maya Sun’s answer.
“However, I want to think about collaboration.”
Dre’s words calmed the atmosphere again, albeit slightly.
“Right now, I have been suspicious of many things. The forces of the enemy are very large and sophisticated.”
At Dre’s eerie words, the rankers focused on him.
“As long as we don’t know who the suspect’s collaborators are… Until you have information or an opportunity to trust you. We ask for your understanding.”
“…Well, Yeo understands. But remember that the period of subjugation is short.”
Adele gave her a twitch to stop talking unnecessarily, but Faltra ignored it.
This queen of sand, she thought, rather she should be strong and equal to her opponent like Dre.
For a man who doesn’t know the limit, who has girls like that in the warrior’s party and is powerful even himself.
O’Brien, who was the only one who stole Dre’s information, decided to please him.
“I would appreciate it if you would contact me later.”
Adele responded right away.
“That’s right~! We’ll be stationed in Sersu anyway, so it’s okay to visit us anytime! We share information and quests together, and we go around dungeons!’
Wince
Dre reacted to the words to go around the dungeon, and as he was about to say something, Kitz kicked him in the shin.
“Damn it…! Quaaaaa…!”
“Ah. Sorry. It kicked hard.”
Kitz stared at Dre as he rolled across the floor holding his shin.
The rankers watched the scene with his mouth slightly open.
Dre is great too, but that man is Dre’s boss. Upon closer examination, Dre, who was not just a nominal boss, respected him and listened to his orders.
I had heard rumors, but it was considered to be a much greater person.
“…Huh. Well, um. This isn’t a threat, but…”
Standing up and trying to grab Kite’s hair, Dre barely held back and spoke in a trembling voice, causing the users to feel uneasy.
What else are you talking about?
At that time.
Dig.
In a dark room. Two blue sparks came out.
The size of an eyeball.
A skeletal face looming around the fire.
“…!”
“Ugh…!”
Adele stopped talking in surprise, and Faltra jumped up and even raised Sand and Ryunar.
[Sit down.]
Zeng!
However, just by reaching out his hand, the power of Faltra stopped altogether and disappeared.
Faltra swallowed a gulp and called out the name of the being behind Dre.
“Almiraj… Why are you… Here?”
Maybe… I thought.
I heard that Dre saved Almiraj from being chased by Reina and Makia.
I imagined that the two of them might move together, but I also thought it couldn’t be possible after fighting so bloody on the floating island in the past.
But… This is something.
The image of Dre standing next to Almiraj without any apprehension and tapping him on the shoulder.
Doesn’t it look more familiar than you think?
Dre, who won against Almiraj, may have a hard time defeating a single ranker.
But Almiraj can beat all rankers here. The monster rabbit’s privilege seal nullifies all blessings received from the gods.
Except for Machia, Reina, and Poise… The name of the stranger killer, and the power, were so frightening that the users could bite them.
Dre smiled brightly as he saw the rankers sweating coldly.
“This is my subordinate. Please take good care of me.”
“…You guys know each other, and there were rumors that Almiraj lost.”
It was Almiraz who snorted at Maya’s words.
[Dog sound. If I hadn’t lost to this guy and not been restricted, this kind of humiliation… Whoa…]
The monster rabbit let out a deep sigh and disappeared into the darkness again.
The rankers noticed, and Dre smiled brightly.
“Well then, see you next time!”
Dre’s banquet was issued.
What can I do The sad thing is this have to go
As the rankers left, they said where they were staying.
It seemed that he had made a camp outside Sers.
Among them, Adele asked a question before leaving, and Dre laughed bitterly.
After the rankers left, Dre remembered Adele’s question.
‘Why did you keep watching your back while fighting us? Who…’
“Why did you make Almiraj act confined to you?”
Before he could finish his thoughts, Kitz asked a question.
The two of them were on the move somewhere, and Dre, interrupted in his thoughts, looked at Kitz without a hint of displeasure.
Almiraj is not limited to Dre. Kitz wondered why he had to lie like that.
“Then maybe those who have other ideas about me will approach Almiraj for freeing them?”
Because if Almiraz is really bound to Dre, he’ll want to kill him.
There’s no better way than releasing her restraints and finding the right timing to stab her in the back.
Dre and Almiraz, of course. The two just stick together.
“Hmm. Are you saying you’re trying to weed out those who have ulterior motives…? The numbers are deep.”
“Just say no to it outright. It’s just, try something.”
Contrary to what Dre said, Katz was genuinely impressed.
He continued to ask questions in an admiring tone.
“From what I can see, I think you probably knew about Dalian.”
Dalian zone.
In fact, I guessed from the text in the system notification and the attitudes and tone of the rankers.
Even so, pretending not to know and continuing the fight…
“Perhaps, is it to gain an advantage in relationships with rankers?”
Dre also holds the information, but it will be more difficult to deal with if there is a debt of mind.
Dre shrugged his shoulders.
“Well? What are you talking about?”
A natural answer was considered positive.
It seemed like he was living a rough life without thinking, but when he was thorough, he was also thorough.
“What are you going to ask the person who is now in prison? Why did you let him live?”
“Ah. Please tell me something that bothers you.”
“Words that bother you?”
“You will find out soon.”
Where the two arrived.
The ‘prison’ specially created by Kitz
The prison opened, and Euclid and Garcinido stood in front of the prison.
Among them, Kang Gum-il greeted awkwardly, sweating profusely.
“Oh my lord.”
“Hero.”
The two greet each other’s boss as if they were competing.
Kitz blinked, and Dre approached the prison, bowing his head to Euclid and Swordsman.
This time, the man twisted the rankers by saying things like ‘I’m close to Dre’, ‘I’m curious about his skills, why don’t you try sparring’, and ‘Dre wants you too’.
A person with considerable prestige in the world, as if he approached after knowing all the external and internal circumstances of rankers, such as their sense of urgency or inferiority.
Sanctuary of wizards. Mage tower.
One of the masters of those magic towers.
The owner of the White Tower.
Baekmaju.
“Trying to kill Ashita, asking for her to come and messing with it, then messing with it again…”
Dre grinned.
“Do you want to live?”
“Excuse me…”
Geomil tried to call Dre, but stopped.
To be honest, I wanted to cover Baekmaju, who I had been with for a long time, but I thought I couldn’t see that back, and suddenly arranged a sparring with Dre.
When he said he was friendly with Dre, he said he didn’t like it, but he never lied to himself, so it was a mistake to believe him.
What words will you cover now?
Obviously, the white horse was wrong.
At least he had to explain his intentions, but due to the nature of white magic, he could regenerate his tongue, but he didn’t.
“There is no answer. Then may I assume that he wants the death penalty?”
Dre’s calm tone.
And.
Dig.
Something rectangular popped out, and Euclid slowly appeared in front of Dre and wrapped himself around him.
“My lord. Back.”
“…No. Mr. Euclid.”
Dre’s voice trembled.
[…Ah…]
The unidentified voice also trembled.
The rectangle is… A video.
Video from another place at the same time now.
There was a slime woman who was breathtakingly beautiful, dressed in an outfit that could only be called an idol.
[Dre…!!]
“Yuna.”
As Baekmaju said, it is connected to Yuna.
