Chapter 248 – The Ax That Sings Death (5)
Do-jin glared at Deok-gu as if he was talking nonsense about the fact that he had to rescue the criminal sent to the guard again.
Deok-gu looked around for a while, then realized that he had nothing to say in such an open space, and headed to his room.
He even tore the magic scroll from his room that kept the sound from escaping from his room his, which was a needlessly overkill considering the double barriers between the mansion and his room his.
If it wasn’t something like a micro wiretapping device that could only be found on Earth, that barrier would have been sufficient.
“What’s up?”
“… Do you know what my ability is?”
“Know. It’s a wooden wiki.”
“You said it was the Akashic Records. It’s not a wiki.”
Dojin, who had never seen Namu Wiki, couldn’t tell the difference between Kkeora Wiki and Akashic Records… In this situation, I just quietly nodded my head.
When Dojin nodded, Deokgu confided in the information he found out with his own abilities his.
“Anyway, I found something with that ability.”
“What?”
“The Empire’s Secret Operation.”
Deok-gu’s ability to find out detailed information the more people he knows makes it very easy to find out about such a large-scale secret, special operations, even if he doesn’t know about the sweet secrets that childhood friends formed when they were young.
Any covert operation would require dozens of agents to plan, conduct, and support the operation.
And if dozens of people know about the mission, of course they are also captured by Deokgu’s ability his.
“First. Eliminate the barbarians occupying the land around me.”
In Do-jin’s opinion, it was the providence of nature. While civilization is developing, if you are hunting casually, you will inevitably suffer.
Dojin wasn’t the only one who thought so.
“If the threat disappears from the vicinity of the Empire like that… From then on, we will try to invade other kingdoms and countries.”
“Aggression? Suddenly?”
“It’s common for a force that’s the size of an empire to have ambitions for the world. It was like that in the Three Kingdoms as well.”
“What is the Three Kingdoms?”
“…… Haven’t you seen the Three Kingdoms map?”
Leaving Deok-gu surprised at the incredible cultural poverty, Do-jin thought of the time when the empire revealed its desire to conquer the world.
If there was an idea, I wouldn’t declare war on the whole world from the beginning. They’ll pick up useless quibbles and use that as an excuse to devour the nearest kingdom first.
What if the balance of power between the Empire and other factions collapses? It is a kingdom that has spread across the entire continent, a demi-human union, and will start sending troops mercilessly.
“No, then- you don’t even know Yubi? Jojo or Son Kwon! Yeo-po knows!?”
“What is that, bitch?”
“100 million-! How does the Three Kingdoms suck……!”
Seeing Deokgu spitting out hot fire, Dojin turned around. And he asked one more time to confirm.
“So, can we just get her for now?”
“Is that important!? I don’t even know the resolution of the Dowon right now….”
“Okay. I will be back.”
Dojin opened the door and went out. As soon as he leaves the door due to the effect of noise magic, Deok-gu’s voice behind him disappears like a mouse.
He closed the door and headed straight out of the mansion. He calls Ade Lange on his way to find Kantha’s whereabouts her.
“Did you pick up any blood?”
—… Didn’t the owner tell me not to suck blood?
“If you put up a mess like this, there must be a drop or two of blood spilled. I mean that.”
—Aha, I wish I had said that from the beginning. … Did you pick up what was spilled or not?
Ade Lange defended her own innocence her, fearing that her dojin her might yell at her. Do-jin looked at her like that and replied that she was not like that.
“I won’t say anything, he now. Where are you?”
—If it was like that, tell me from the beginning.
Ade Lange, who was annoyed by saying that she was scared for nothing, immediately jumped out of the shadows and began licking the blood of Kantha she had collected earlier.
Blood is the currency of the soul. Aderange, who came into contact with Kantar’s soul Her, grasped her whereabouts in an instant.
“Follow me. Host.”
Then, in an instant, she turned into a bat and started flying through the sky. Watching the swarm of bats flying high in the sky, Dojin ran through the city.

Less buzz-.
Imperial soldiers escort criminals. It wasn’t that rare. It was the Empire’s law that criminals who committed crimes in the Empire would be dealt with by the Empire, so it was common for criminals who were caught hiding in other countries to be extradited.
However, this time the criminal was different in size. It was because he was a warrior of barbarians, a threatening being worthy of being wanted in the empire.
Kanta, the ax that sings her death her, starved herself for several days to reach the size of a normal woman, but the soldiers of her empire her never let her off guard, putting her in handcuffs and chains and keeping her under tight guard. She did.
‘Is this how I die?’
Inside her rattling cage, Kanta felt her own mortality her. No, she could have suffered something worse than death.
Barbarians were a nuisance to her empire her, terrorists squatting in her empire’s lands her, and with her considerable position her in her tribe her, she could be tried to placate her with all kinds of torture and brainwashing .
What if brainwashing does not work with strong mental power? The body will be humiliated, inflicted with all sorts of humiliation, and after killing, the corpse will be resurrected to humiliate the comrades.
‘Do I have to bite her tongue and die?’
If she had known it would be like this, she would have just eaten as Do-jin told her to. Who would have known that a divine being would actually hand himself over to the guards?
Since the old man’s prophecy is not wrong, he must have made a mistake or Do-jin was not a divinity.
In any case, it was her own fault her. It was the right choice for a warrior to commit suicide rather than be humiliated like this.
‘Sir, I’m sorry. I’ll go first….’
“Keah-!”
Then, the screams of the soldiers hit her ears. She had her blindfolded her so she could n’t see her surroundings her, so she could n’t figure out what the situation was.
“It’s an assault!”
“A barbarian! Guard the prisoner!”
“Crazy, these really want to go… !”
‘Barbarians?’
Kanta could n’t contain her astonishment at the fact that a member of her tribe her had arrived. Why would a replacement tribe member come here?
It was even during the day that she was arrested. She’s not even half a day old, when she realizes that no other member of her tribe besides herself has been captured and she comes to her rescue her? It was hard to believe.
‘No, run away….’
It was good that she came to save herself, but as a result, she had no choice but to come to her tribe her adversely.
The fact that she had been captured and was in escort must have already been communicated to the empire through her communication magic her, and if she escaped with the help of someone, they would assume that the culprit was a member of her clan her .
He couldn’t get help from Do-jin, but if he only made the empire angry, the result was very simple. Annihilation of the tribe.
It would have been better to pretend to be a thief and run away pretending not to know. Her soldiers her, convinced that her assailants her were members of her tribe her, would take out all sorts of wrath against her, but she would bear it too.
“Aaaaah!”
However, according to his sensitive ears her, the assailant managed to defeat the last soldier. It was both pleasing and terrifying at the same time.
Now she will live with the guilt of endangering her people to save her own life. Until when? Until she loses her life on her battlefield….
No, maybe even after this body died and her soul her returned to nature.
Even until you hear that voice.
“No, why am I a barbarian?”
“Host. I honestly hate to say this, but the owner wearing a robe looks like a barbarian.”
“What? Really!?”
Dojin’s voice. A voice that she had sent herself to the guard and should not be heard in this place.
Kanta opened his mouth in a cracked voice.
“… Hey, what’s going on? Are you here to tease me?”
“Kanta. Unintentionally, I have to save you.”
“What?”
What kind of change of heart did she have in this short period of time on the subject that she had said that even a few days ago, she had no reason to save herself, and that even if she sacrificed herself, it was not worth it . She couldn’t quite understand it on her own.
I couldn’t understand… Does not matter. Because her understanding she did n’t matter.
“I’m counting on you.”
Kanta’s body had already reached its limit after she refusing to eat or drink water for several days. Hearing her relaxed answer her in a state where she had reached her limit, she collapsed.
Seeing her fainting, her Dojin returned to her mansion after rescuing her once.
* * *
Drop, drop.
The sound of dripping water was heard, and Kanta carefully opened her eyes. Before she knew it, she herself was lying on the bed, and a needle with a string was stuck in her forearm.
The source of the sound was a transparent envelope at the end of the string. Sensing her instinctive displeasure of her, Kanta stood up and tried to pull out the needle.
“Oh no! If you pull it out!”
Fortunately, the maid who was watching by her side her stopped her with a quick shout.
The maid let out a sigh of her relief, told her to stay with her for a while, and left her room to her.
Kantha realized that she was not in the way and she pulled out the needle.
After a while, blood began to flow from the gaping hole.
“Yes, you are awake… I told you not to pull it out!!”
After a while, the maid who returned to her room her with her dojin was frightened to see her arm her spurting blood and poured her potion.
Fortunately, there was some blood, but no major injuries. After confirming that her hole her was blocked, the maid sighed as she lifted up her blood-soaked blanket and carpet.
“Then I’ll go do the laundry….”
Leaving behind the maid, who was already getting fed up with the thought of washing the bloody things, Dojin met Kanta’s eyes in her.
Kanta glared at her Do-jin as if he didn’t know why he had saved him.
“… There is no time for this. We have to go back to the tribe as soon as possible.”
“What is your name?”
“… I would have called it Kanta.”
“Don’t use that fake name. It must have a real name.”
While she was asleep, Dojin investigated the savages. She also found out that they had Native American names.
Kanta, who was salivating for a moment at the fact that she was caught hiding her name of her, told me her true name of her.
“The ax that sings death.”
“It’s a long name. Yes, Kanta. You, do you know what the most threatening tactic is when superhumans do it?”
“… What are you talking about?”
She looked down at Kanta, who tilted her head incomprehensibly, and Dojin grinned.
“Guerrilla warfare.”
From now on, they planned to become gods of guerrilla warfare.
