Chapter 394 – Episode 394 – Kangrim Goes to Meet the Head of the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe
“Welcome, master.”
The brown-haired nine-tailed fox greets the owner as he comes to his residence. The head of the Gumiho tribe, wearing a black hanbok that exposed the entire upper part of his chest, was eagerly waiting for his owner to return to Fox Island.
Because he wanted to quickly show off the finished work that he and his colleagues had created together.
“Yeah, there were no problems while I was gone, right?”
Kangrim, the black-haired man who received the nine-tailed fox and Su-ah’s greeting, asked.
“No, there was a problem.”
“Hmm?”
“I caught the spies an hour before the master arrived.”
Saying that, Su-ah handed over the report to Kang-rim.
The report detailed what happened today.
“All details are in the report.”
“Hmm…”
Kang-rim received the report that Su-ah presented. Gangrim looked at each page carefully.
The report, which consisted of a total of five pages, contained the names, origins, and purposes of the spies caught this time.
“Are you an adventurer again…?”
And, Gangrim was able to find out that the captured spies were adventurers.
“They really don’t know how to give up.”
Through the mediation of the guild leader, they receive a request from the Mercenary King and invade the empire.
He somehow avoids the Iron Legion’s surveillance network and infiltrates the capital. He infiltrates and finds the whereabouts of the arch-demon Grid.
Find and look for an opportunity to take the head of the grid.
When an opportunity is detected, he immediately takes action and decapitates Grid.
Once Grid’s neck is secured, he immediately escapes to the Kingdom of Seum.
He offers Grid’s head to the mercenary king and receives a huge amount of compensation in return.
This
It was written in the report that the adventurers who were caught again confessed that way.
“What happened to these guys?”
“We killed the men and converted the women into our own people.”
Su-ah smiled, probably remembering the time when they were punishing those people.
“Everyone was really crying in sorrow. Don’t kill us, don’t turn us into monsters. It was hilarious to see people who ignored us say things like that.”
If the spies are caught, it will end in one of two ways.
Would you die protecting your pride until the end?
Or, die ugly begging for your life.
Either way, you die the same way, and when you die, everyone cries out for help.
Because we are destined to die as humans and be converted into beasts. The spies who do not have the talent to endure such a fate cry, scream, and cause an uproar.
Of course, seeing something like that didn’t make Su-ah feel weak. Even if people other than Su-ah carry out the punishment, the same would happen.
How can you show mercy to the bastards who infiltrated the country that their master founded to destroy it?
Even if Kangrim had been there, the ending wouldn’t have changed.
“Anyway, the women are living well as our new compatriots.”
“Good job.”
After reading the report, Kang-rim praised Su-ah.
“Ehehe, what?”
Su-ah scratched the back of her head, probably out of embarrassment. The nine fox tails danced according to the master’s mood.
“Anyway, sneaking into the capital. You’re really talented.”
Ganglim said while handing the report to Suah.
“If you’re that talented, there’s no use blocking the area near Ramid Island.”
It’s not just the adventurers who infiltrated this time.
The same was true for the adventurers who had infiltrated before that.
Everyone broke through the security of the Steel Legion and reached the capital.
There are many cases where they are drowned before they even reach it, but there are quite a few cases where they achieve success.
If left like this, a major accident may occur. Something needs to be done.
“Then shall we hit it?”
After putting her report on her work desk, Su-ah made a suggestion.
“The kingdom that is currently requesting adventurers is the Kingdom of Roseum. If we attack that kingdom, won’t it naturally decrease?”
“No, it’s not a problem that can be solved by attacking the kingdom.”
Kangrim shook her head.
“Even if Roseum is destroyed, adventurers will not disappear. Where will they meet again?”
Beings that freely gather and freely disperse. That’s what an adventurer is.
Such adventurers cannot disappear just by destroying a single kingdom.
Even when the guild headquarters on Ice Island fell, weren’t the adventurers still alive, let alone destroyed?
Even if Roseum is destroyed and the guild leader is captured, adventurers will gather again like clouds.
“So are you going to leave it like this? You can’t suffer like this forever, right?”
“No, I won’t let you.”
If so, is there a way?
Kangrim answered Suah’s question.
“I have a good idea.”
“Is this a good idea?”
“I plan to do this when the phantom thief joins us…”
Kangrim talked about the plan she had in mind to take out all the adventurers.
After a while, Su-ah, who had heard the whole story, said,
“It’s crazy.”
She made that comment with an expression of bewilderment.
“It’s crazy, but it’s worth a try.”
Even though she made that comment, she did not express any opposition to the master’s plan.
“Okay, let’s give it a try. It’s better to exterminate pests when you have the chance.”
“Really?”
Kang-rim was rather embarrassed by Su-a’s reaction.
“I thought they would hate me for luring enemies to their hometown…”
The key to this plan is incentives.
Lure as many adventurers as possible to Fox Island, the capital of the empire, and attack them once and for all.
With the theme of adventure that they love so much.
However, it is a self-evident fact that if this plan is implemented, Fox Island will naturally become a mess, and numerous nine-tailed fox tribes may also be harmed.
Considering that, I thought Su-ah would absolutely oppose it, but Kang-rim couldn’t help but be surprised by the reaction that was different from what he expected.
“I was getting tired of finding hidden enemies.”
Sua answered.
“It was hard to catch it because it was good at hiding. Even if I caught it, it kept coming, so I was annoyed.”
“Really?”
“Yes, so I thought it would be better to go with the master’s plan if I could make a complete strike. And…”
Sua said with a slightly expectant face.
“I wanted to hunt.”
Su-ah continued her words in a selfless tone.
“I want to let them know what it feels like to be hunted.”
“Ah…”
Kang-rim immediately realized why Su-ah said this.
‘It was adventurers who hunted the beastmen.’
Prisoners are not treated as persons. They are treated as simple livestock and objects.
Because they were treated that way, beastmen were objects of hunting for humans. It was an object that could be bought and sold at any time,
Those who took the lead in hunting these beastmen were none other than adventurers.
I have always hunted beasts at the request of nobles.
Even though the Necia Kingdom began to respect the rights of beastmen, hunting did not end. This continued until Grid invaded the Beastman Union in earnest.
Considering that, it may be natural for Su-ah to agree with Kang-rim’s plan.
Because they can now hunt those who were hunting them in reverse.
There is nothing more exhilarating in this world than being able to bully the people who bullied you in the same way they did.
“If you start, please tell me right away. I will cooperate unconditionally.”
“Okay, if you really want it, I’ll do it.”
Kang-rim didn’t expect it to end so easily, but she said she would help, so she had no reason to refuse.
‘Let’s ask the others too.’
Let’s ask the other Beastman Union leaders if they want to join his plan.
If he had the same opinion as Su-ah, Kang-rim planned to have them also participate in the plan.
“Anyway, master…”
When the moment finally came to say what she wanted to say, Su-ah said in a disappointed tone.
“I wanted to train that girl named Arwen. She wanted to do it, but it was a shame she said she would finish it early.”
As she said that, Su-ah turned her gaze to the woman next to Kang-rim.
“… What are you looking at?”
She was a woman wearing a black military uniform, just like Kang-rim. Her reward for declaring her surrender was being able to wear clothes that fit her size like never before.
A woman with dark blue short hair who was the last gatekeeper who had to be defeated when the Kingdom of Necia was destroyed.
Cardian’s younger sister, Arwen, reacted sharply to Sua’s gaze.
“Are you sure he really gave in? Doesn’t this guy have long hair?”
Sua heard the news that Arwen had surrendered on Siren Island. When Su-ah heard the news, she couldn’t help but feel very sad.
Those who cooperated in subjugating Arwen, please join her in training her.
Such an order was given, and Sua was preparing to train Arwen according to the order.
I did, but it was suddenly canceled. She heard her master inform her that the plan had changed. Su-a was disappointed, but the master had his own thoughts, so he thought it was like this and did not protest. Of course, all my regrets are not gone.
Anyway, since the master said he was successful, Sua was curious about how polite the woman named Arwen had become.
But, nothing has changed at all? She usually gets polite when she gives in, so why are you being so cocky?
Su-ah tilted his head as if the master had really succeeded.
“It’s true that you don’t have a long hair.”
Kangrim acknowledged.
“It is true that there is nothing, but it is true that I gave in.”
“Huh?”
Arwen’s body quivered as her descent hit her ass.
I thought you would shout something right away, but
“Hehe, hehe… It’s too much, if you do this all of a sudden…”
She could only gasp as her face was completely consumed.
“If you want, can I borrow it for the day?”
Kangrim suggested to Suah.
“I heard you wanted to teach Arwen. Then I’ll lend you it.”
“Really?”
Su-ah was very happy with Kang-rim’s suggestion.
“Dan.”
Kang-rim raised her left index finger and said what should be prioritized.
“After meeting Princess Aloy first.”
In fact, that was the only reason Kangrim came to see Suah.
“Let’s meet the princess who became a chimera. Then I’ll lend it to you.”
