Chapter 1144 – #271_Vendetta (5)

#1138

One.
Hotel Periwinkle Munich, provided by Location Point as accommodation, is not a very large hotel.

Even during non-peak season, the lobby is crowded with only a few tourists.

Building a hotel that matches the city’s unique characteristics and atmosphere is also one of Periwinkle’s sales strategies.

Still, the top floor suite room was large enough to accommodate many guests.

Who are the many guests here?
Five ‘capos’ including Nairi.
And there are 20 Werpana performing duties under him, a total of 25 members.

To be honest, Siwoo was also appalled when three new tracking teams suddenly appeared.
It wasn’t the strength we had expected, and even running away was unlikely against that number of people.

I almost fell into the trap that Frau had set.

This was the last magic used by Siwoo, who was continuing his persuasion by using the Flame of Destruction (an illegal copy).
The magic that burned the dark clouds and cast a golden dawn over the city,

It was exactly similar to ‘Mors,’ a technique used by his mother, Mystil Thane, which fires the concept of ‘death’ in all directions.

Of course, they are witches too.

I intuitively understand that the magic used by Siwoo is not really ‘mother’s magic’.

However, Lydia, who was cautious to begin with, hid not only her own regalia but also her magic, and when she encountered one of her hidden secrets, the witch lost her life.
Except for her werpana, who has sworn allegiance to her for so long.

However, Shin Si-woo reproduced his mother’s magic with similar power and form.

At that point, Shin Si-woo ceased to be Moribae, who had tricked him into killing his mother and usurped the right of succession at will.
He really stood up to his mother, and with her approval, he became Werpanath’s godfather.

“I, Frau Holle, pledge eternal loyalty to my godfather with all my body, mind, spirit and body.”
“Okay. Let’s do well in the future.”

The oath of loyalty ceremony ended with Frau, who doubted Siwoo until the last moment.

Frau, who crawled on the hotel floor like Nairi did, kissed the back of Siu’s hand and bowed his head.

It’s quite bland.
Should I say that this is what it feels like to be ‘worshipped’ by someone?

A dangerous sense of omnipotence suddenly arises due to the upright admiration given by the goddaughters.

Even if Si-woo takes off his pants right here and says, ‘Come on, let’s give Juji a kiss of vows,’ I will comply.
Additionally, even if you catch and kill just one person, the other goddaughters will not stop you.

Rather, it will help.

Even without a hypnosis app, you can do all kinds of things that you could only imagine.
It was as if the lives of all of Werpana had been taken into their hands.

Although it was only an insidious example, it means that Si-woo can do ‘whatever he wants’ to at least these twenty-five people.

It’s such a devilish power that even Siwoo, who tries to live as kindly as he can, is reminded of a side path.

What is paradoxical is that the people who showed nervousness as if they were being chased when they first met each other feel relieved as if they have returned to their nest the moment they pledge their loyalty to Si-woo?

I don’t know much about Lydia, but I wonder if she probably had this in mind when she handed over the position of Ras We Lepanas’ godfather to Siu…

“You are either public or outcasts.”

As soon as Si-woo opens his mouth, whatever little pretense of popularity he had disappears.
Everyone stops breathing and listens so as not to miss a single word.

“My duty is to lead you. Lydia Magnus has treated you as the vanguard of Solidus, but I have no intention of doing so.”
“…”
“I can’t do it because it’s awkward. “Everyone is older than me, so I will treat them with respect.”

Until a little while ago, I had to show some believable charisma to them, so I acted like I was twisting my limbs, but there is no need to do that anymore.
Didn’t you show and prove?

“We will be interviewing each person one by one. Let’s listen to what each person does there. “First, Miss Nairi.”
“Yes, godfather.”

What is surprising is the goddaughters’ reaction.
Even though the conversation suddenly changed from an old-fashioned tone that could be found in the Bible to a light tone, no one’s expression changed, let alone being embarrassed.

… Now that I think about it, I think Lydia was a bit frivolous too.

Anyway, Siwoo called his goddaughters one by one and received information from them and reports on his duties.

It was quite shocking.

Of course, there were relatively benign positions in charge of intelligence gathering and basic management of the Solidus upper level, but most of the tracking team members performed bloody tasks such as assassinations, hunting, and sabotage.

“We also had missions to take hostages, kidnap key figures, and threaten those who did not follow orders properly. “Burning down all the unlicensed coca fields or burying a witch who went against her mother’s wishes.”

Surprisingly, there was almost no operational activity toward Gehenna.

When I asked why…

“Because the Great Mother wanted to avoid conflict with Gehenna. Our role was to stab public figures and outcasts in the back and take away their interests.”

It is said.

However, as mentioned before, it appears that he has been doing all kinds of dirty work for outcasts and public figures.

Well, I expected this up to this point, so it’s not really a shock.

What really shocked Si-woo was the goddaughters’ attitude of casually talking about such details, and their bright and innocent eyes, as if strangely expecting praise.

Should we say that the world view of A, an ordinary citizen living in Korea, is as different as that of Citizen B, who has lived in a third world rife with civil war?

Siwoo planned to take advantage of them from the beginning.

Now that the destruction of Solidus, which served as a weight, is scheduled, the war between Gehenna and Hexennacht is no longer an unrealistic story.
Either use the Werpana that seeps into every corner of the top of Solidus, or get information from them and respond.
There are endless uses for them as they cleanly clean up dirty work invisibly.

If a local war breaks out, wouldn’t Siwoo just have to move them without lifting a finger?

Everyone changes.
When the position of the line changes, the scenery you see also changes, and the changed scenery in front of you even shakes the thoughts you once thought were true.

Siwoo may have changed quite a bit in many ways compared to before.

“If you command me, I will fly like a dagger and pierce the heart of a vicious enemy. Please use it as much as you like as if it were yours, and if it gets damaged, throw it away.”

But even so, there is a line that must be followed.

Even for the sake of her lovers who have looked at Si-woo by her side and promised her love until now, and for the sake of the sprout that will soon be born.

“It’s been a lot of hard work.”
“Yes? No. I just did what I had to do… Ah…”

Siwoo lightly stroked Frau’s head.
He wasn’t flirting, but I felt so bad watching him from the side that I couldn’t help it.

Even though he is startled, he lowers his head so that Si-woo can pet him more comfortably. This is his consistent reaction, as if he had scripted it with the other sisters.

“I said I would lead Werpana, but not in the same way.”
“… If so…”
“I’m not sure yet. What can I do for you? “Let’s find a good way.”

“That means… Are you saying you want to get out of practical work and move to management? ? Please leave it to us. In the past, I was also responsible for laundering money for an organization and spying through beauty circles.”
“Everyone says similar things.”

When Siwoo laughed lightly, Frau looked away awkwardly, not knowing what to do.

“This is Ms. Frau’s last interview, and everyone’s reactions and comments are similar. Are all sisters like that? Can you please show me what it originally looks like? “What is your image externally?”
“How could I treat you so lightly…”

“I’m just curious.”
“If it is your godfather’s order…”

Frau stiffened his body, blinked his eyes, and then nodded slowly.

“Well, it’s not easy… Because my godfather is my godfather…” .”

Frau, who had been rigid as if dealing with a distant superior, showed a little of his personality.
Siwoo thinks this side is better.

“More natural. Let’s treat each other like we would treat a friend.”

Frau, who was watching, spoke in a lighter tone.
However, the content was not light at all.

“Godfather… Can you forgive Finn? “I will persuade my other sisters.”

This is something you can’t say when Siwoo is your godfather, but you can say it when he treats you like a friend.

Frau clearly recognized Siu as his godfather and swore loyalty to him.
However, what remains in his mind are the sisters who belong to Las Vengadoras and are targeting him, as well as their leader, Finn.

“We all acknowledged that our godfather was the true successor. “If we go and talk, the sisters will listen.”
“I was already thinking of doing that.”
“I will do it. “Please leave it to me.”

Frau, who was already kneeling in front of Siwoo, spoke in an earnest voice.

2.
In the end, it was decided that Werpana would hide herself at a nearby location point under Siu’s protection, and that the tracking team centered on Frau would return to Las Vengadoras pretending to have failed in their mission.

The scenario is that Siwoo, who was waiting in Munich, dug a trap at the station, and Frau Jo barely managed to return with his body saved.

They skillfully inflicted wounds on each other’s bodies and even irregularly damaged the magical circuits, creating the appearance of actual defeated soldiers.

“Under.”

After such an incredibly long day.
Now we have finally returned to the main topic.

You may have forgotten, but all these sadals are trying to find the runaway Parrywinkle.

“What kind of fuss is going on again?”

At that time, my body felt weak as I thought about what kind of extreme adventure was waiting for me in the future.

“It’s stupid. “I can’t take my eyes off it.”
“Eh?”

Why are you out there? It was.
Because Periwinkle came into the room with a fresh look on her face.
