Chapter 246 – The Ax That Sings Death (3)

Kanta, who was double bound by the freezing effect of Seoyoon’s ability and the chain cast by magic, opened his mouth while glaring at Dojin without saying anything.

“Kuu, kill him.”
“—It’s Deokgu!”

Do-jin, who heard her say lines that someone would like, immediately called her Deok-gu and made a colonel in front of her.

Deokgu, who came running quickly, saw her Kanta and kicked her tongue her and shook her head. Isn’t it very different from the female knight she usually dreams of?

“The girl I know who lives here has a little longer hair and less muscle.”

Kantha’s hair was almost as short as a man’s, and her muscles were too bloated. It was at this rate that she was not a female knight, but a member of the Yeoran tribe.

“But, since you’re here, I’ll help you out a little.”

Saying that, Deokgu stretched out his hand toward the person in front of her. The moment her hand his touched her temple her, her kantha thrust her mouth towards her dukgu’s fingers with a quick movement.

Puck-! If Do-jin, who was watching from her side of her, had n’t reacted quickly, she would have cut off all of Deok-gu’s fingers her.

“… What, you weren’t tied up!?”
“You didn’t cover your mouth.”
“No! How can you jump out of that position!”
“I must have walked on her ass her.”

Kicked by her foot her, Do-jin walked towards Kanta, who was lying flat behind her, and found that she was still telling her to kill herself and that she had no intention of saying anything.

Seeing that she blocked Deok-gu’s access, she must have thought that Deok-gu was a brainwasher or a being with sleazy abilities.

She was trying to hide her true identity of her.

“We can’t help you if you come out this uncooperative.”
“Not required. Kill.”
“Umm- what should I do?”
“Why don’t you just kill me?”

Realizing that all of her own fingers had been bitten and she was in danger of being ripped off, Deok-gu wasn’t very kind to her.

Anyway, what she was her, what she came here for, I could roughly figure out just by examining her corpse after killing her.

However, Dojin shook her head. Even though it’s a surprise attack, it’s a powerful existence enough to defeat Emilia. A being like this usually has a back stomach.

‘I was talking about the empire.’

Then, is she also an assassin from the Empire? It seemed that she was trying to kidnap Emilia, not kill her, and that Emilia was a virgin from her country her, and that she had n’t done anything to earn her resentment of her.

“Do Jin-ah. If you want to know that much, shall I find out with my own abilities?”
“Is it possible?”
“Whoa, you said you’ve made great progress lately.”

Deok-gu said so and while he questioned her, he told her to protect himself. That’s about it – it wasn’t that difficult, so Do-jin watched her Deok-gu talk to her.

“Your name?”
“….”
“Where are you from? West? East? Oh, that’s right. It’s the Empire.”
“…….”
“What is the purpose? Assassination? No kidnapping? Is it this way? They came to pick us up… Why?”
“… What are you muttering to yourself?”
“Looks like a corner.”

Kanta didn’t notice what Deok-gu was doing, but Do-jin could easily tell. Cold reading. A technique that seems to read the other person’s mind by checking their unconscious body reactions.

It was a skill of specially trained spy agents that few people on Earth could use. I wondered how he realized it.

After the interrogation, Deok-gu said he was done, and she winked at Do-jin to go out. Do-jin, who followed Deok-gu out of the room, asked what the hell was going on.

“Hey, that was just… Where the hell did you learn from?”
“Cold reading?”
“Uh.”
“Haven’t you learned anything?”

Hearing that, Dojin admired it for the first time in a long time. He thought he was an otaku who cut off his severance from people while watching anime, but it turned out that he had the ability to read people’s minds from birth…….

“I was just pretending to know how to do it.”
“… What?”
“It’s cool. I really wanted to try it while watching the anime.”
“… No, then what are you talking about?”
“Did you take it?”

Of course, it wasn’t just a photo shoot. Now that the Ajin Union and the Kingdom are extremely friendly to Dojin, there is no way to hide my identity His, so I guessed that the Empire sent it.

An assassin whose goal was to kill would have died by biting off the poison that was lodged in his teeth his, rather than attacking like that and saying things like ‘kill me’.

Judging by the color of her skin her, she must have grown up in an environment where she had to stay under the scorching sun for a very long time, and her muscles her, which were tough for a woman, must have been trained through daily battles.

“If you put all of this together, it must be barbarians beyond the Empire.”
“Dukgu you… You’ve become a complete detective.”
“If you’ve been in Conan for 10 years, everyone can do this!”

In honor of my grandfather! Deok-gu went to his office, saying he would find out why the barbarians sent people to the dungeon territory.

Do-jin, who heard Deok-gu’s words and realized that the woman in the room was a barbarian, entered the room again.

And in the room, I met eyes with Kanta, who struggled to break free.

“Ouch-! What a solid…”
“What are you doing?”
“… Quit, kill him.”
“Did you learn only that?”

Do-jin firmly bound her restraints that she had untied as she struggled, and started a conversation with her through the information she had heard from Deok-gu.

“Now, I don’t know which tribe you’re from… Why did barbarians from across the empire come all the way here?”

“… I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Oh, yes? Then should I just turn you over to the Empire? You want me to take care of that? We are more comfortable with that.”

Hearing that, Kanta looked at Dojin in shock. She was the scourge of the empire, the barbarians, and she was the most prominent among those barbarians.

What if she is sent to the Empire? Her empire her is good, so either capture her her and brainwash her her, or humiliate her comrades her by devouring her corpse her after all sorts of torture and humiliation.

It had to be avoided. She wouldn’t know if she was the only one dying, and her colleagues would be harmed as well …….

“… Kantha.”
“Cantha?”
“Cantada.”

So she opened her mouth for the first time today and started her conversation.

Seeing her like that, Dojin smiled at her.

“What is your purpose for coming here?”
“I came in search of a star.”
“Star?”
“Okay. Star.”

Kanta remembered the mission the elder of her tribe had entrusted to her. Of course, it was reluctant for the elders to openly reveal her secret mission to her outsiders.

Believing that Do-jin in front of her was the person she was looking for, she cast her gambler number.

“A divinity to save our tribe.”

* * *

Humans are born in nature and return to nature.
Is there a master on this vast continent? It’s all just human claims.

Her tribe also lived with such thoughts. There is no owner on this vast land, so it is very free to hunt what is on it as long as we risk each other’s lives.

However, one day. The empire began sending troops to expand its territory. The Empire named her and her tribe her barbarians and did everything they could to steal more of their land her.

They arbitrarily cut down trees, dug up the ground, and damaged nature. Then she claimed that the position belonged to the Empire.

The tribe fought the Empire for making such outrageous claims.

“That was decades ago. I heard it was the story of my grandfather’s generation.”

“It’s been a while.”

“However, I am gradually reaching the limit of my endurance. Annie is an adult, so everyone is dying without doing anything, and there are no children.”

Like her, her tribe her was very strong. She learns combat skills through professional training from a young age, and gains experience by engaging in real battles with all kinds of monsters that roam the wild.

By the time a young tribesman reaches adulthood, a decent knight has the power to overcome them with ease.

However, war is not fought alone by powerful superhumans.

“The Empire seems to have some mysterious power.”

“A mysterious power?”

“Okay-. Especially those damn spellcasters. The biggest problem is a spellcaster who kills and kills endlessly.”

Emilia, who had been quietly listening to her words, looked at her with an expression that she had seen her again.

Sensing her stare at him, Kantha glared at her as if there was something wrong with her.

“… What, why are you looking at me like that?”

“No, you… You talk more than you think.”

“—Ah, no, this!!”

When this fact was pointed out, Kanta began to make excuses, saying that this level of talk wasn’t a big deal, and that he had no choice but to gain your help and trust.

Embarrassed by her alone, leaving her to make excuses, Dojin chewed on the words her Kanta had said.

‘I heard there are dungeons in the empire too….’

It was even said that the dungeons there dropped mysteries unlike the dungeons here that drop magic stones.

I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t interested, but… It was true that I didn’t really want to go.

“So.”

Do-jin, who finished her kantha, asked her while looking into her eyes.

“You tried to kidnap Emilia thinking she was a divinity or something, and she failed, right?”

“… Okay.”

“Um, sorry, but there’s no one like that among us-“

Saying that, Dojin took out the Gears Scroll from her arms. It was an item that was always carried around for use in the kingdom and for emergencies.

“Don’t follow us from now on. I’m telling you not to come near me. Got it?”

“… That.”

No your head if you want to live. Despite Dojin saying so, Kanta shook his head.

Do-jin, who didn’t know why she came out here, whether she really wanted to die, tilted her head and glared at her.

“No, do you really want to die? Just run straight to the imperial embassy?”

“Even if you kill me, it is useless. I won’t leave your side.”

“… Why?”

Kanta looked up at Dojin.

In her mind her, the star-like appearance that Dojin showed her the other day comes to mind.

It was a nova.

“Because you are divine.”

The existence he was looking for is right in front of his eyes his, so where is he going to find it?

Even if I lost my life, I couldn’t leave.
