Chapter 138 – Please Retreat

“Master.”

Alice suddenly called me.

“Why.”

“It seems like all the guys I want to beat are fans now. What are you going to do next?”

A lot has been accomplished, but there is still more to be done. I turned to Alice and opened her mouth.

“You shouldn’t be mistaken for completely destroying the Magic Society. The lieutenant survived. Until we can eradicate them completely, we’ll have to stay with the Chaos of Dawn.”

“Ah… So, are you now standing on the side of the chaos of dawn and completely eradicating the other person?”

“I can see that.”

◈

We succeeded in finding Becca and reaching the abode of chaos at dawn. But why?

Becca was nowhere to be seen, and the chaos of dawn had built several tents and lined up people.

I grabbed one and asked.

“Hey. What are all these crowds doing?”

The man looked at me with pitiful eyes as if he didn’t know this.

“Finding someone who can stand on the side of the Chaos of Dawn. If you pass, you will receive an allowance and be able to work as a mercenary.”

“Right.”

Then Alice and I faced each other. Perhaps we were both thinking the same thing.

I was the first to open my mouth.

“We already received a lot of gold coins. Will I get another gold coin if I pass this screening test?”

“Iknow, right? Shall we stand in line? The more gold coins, the better.”

“Come to think of it, we’re not doing anything so bad. It shows your will to do your duty diligently as a mercenary.”

“That is what I mean. Let’s wait in line.”

We lined up very naturally. In the interim, the other guys looked at Alice’s bunny girl with a strange look.

In any case, the line shortened quickly. After waiting a bit, it was our turn.

An examiner sitting at a desk was diligently writing something down in a ledger, and he looked up and down at us and asked.

“This is another combination. Are you both applying as mercenaries?”

“Huh.”

“Why? Because you need money?”

I pondered for a while. Most of these guys don’t give much money if money is their goal. There was another answer that could extort the most money.

“I have a great grudge against the Magic Society. You must avenge that.”

“That’s an answer I really like. As a mercenary, I will do my best. But the problem is skill, because fighting is not something you can do with just your mindset.”

“I am confident in my own way.”

“I’m confident in my own way… That’s a bit of a vague answer. Yes, what Let’s make an agreement to the extent of giving away a few gold coins.”

“Yes, yes.”

But in fact, even if we received a few, we benefited from receiving additional gold coins. He nodded willingly.

But the other guy next to him widened his eyes.

“30 gold coins? Giving 30 gold coins to these guys whose names you don’t even know?”

I asked.

“The other guys in line here get a few gold coins too?”

“At most, 10 revisions.”

After hearing that, Elise and I nodded our heads in satisfaction.

“The person who writes this book is a bit smart, Master. Actually, it’s less than 30 for us.”

“I know.”

Anyway, after taking a total of 60 gold coins, we left. Now that I have free gold coins, I should buy some goodies on the way back to El Balom’s residence.

So, I was just going back to normal, but suddenly someone bumped into Alice’s shoulder in a nice way.

“Bunny!”

“What is it, why don’t you look straight ahead?”

The person Ellis and her shoulder collided with was a very large person. Even after pushing Elise’s shoulder, he didn’t seem to be apologetic.

Her face was full of confidence.

I looked at this guy for a while, then looked at it again out of curiosity.

It was a face I didn’t know at all, but the energy that flowed out was quite wonderful. If it was this great, there’s no way I wouldn’t have known it in my previous life.

I asked out loud.

“What is your name?”

“You don’t know me? Haven’t you heard of Ralph?”

“Aha, Ralph.”

I’ve heard of that name. He was a candidate to become one of the members of the shadows, and he was the kind of person he ended up not becoming.

Just as I looked at him, he looked at me as well.

“What is your name?”

“Florian.”

“Florian? I’m feeling pretty good. I open my eyes a little bit, but.”

Then Alice, who had been listening to the story beside her, became furious.

“Master, how much better do you have to wake up? You just pushed me! Be glad you didn’t get beaten!”

The faces of the guys standing next to Ralph, who seemed to be his party, became extremely stern. They act like they’re going to hit Alice at any moment, but Ralph stops them.

“Baby, just stay still. At first glance, they look like prostitutes, but what are we going to do with them?”

“Hmm, anyway… “

“Leave it. Just. Let’s go.”

After saying that, Ralph quietly left.

I will never forget how rude you were to Alice. However, there was no need to punish right away, because we will encounter many things in the future.

◈

We stuck behind the Chaos forces of dawn and followed the direction of their advance.

I thought that there would be an interesting fight in the middle, and if there was something that could be of help to El Balom, I would steal it and make it a structure that would benefit us.

Sometimes, whenever Becca, who was spearheading me from afar, said something, Elise and I turned her heads. Because she shouldn’t be caught getting gold coins twice.

Anyway, the size of the Chaos of Dawn guys combined with the mercenaries was huge. I don’t know if that’s why, but Becca’s shoulders were soaring to the sky.

But I tilted my head. It was because there was a little strange terrain on the way we headed towards the Magic Society.

We were passing a village, the road was very narrow and the buildings on either side were very tall.

‘It’s too bad.’

The road is narrow, so we have a lot of trouble. However, in this situation, if the guys on top of the building were to fire magic, it would be annihilation.

I couldn’t help but raise my hand.

“Hey.”

Is it because the words are polite? Or is it because it’s the back row? Except for Alice, no one listened to me.

I had no choice but to shout again.

“You fucking Becca!”

But this time, Becca didn’t hear what I was saying. I just couldn’t hear it because it was really far away. The anger subsided.

Instead, the guys walking around us were staring at me wondering what this crazy guy was. I passed on the comments to the guys.

“Hey. Too bad geographically here. If you pass by and get hit by a magical bombardment, you’ll just die like this all at once. No, isn’t it basic to pass by considering the road when fighting? Don’t you know that they’re wizards who have been confined to their rooms all the time?”

Everyone seemed to think that my words had a point, and as the waves spread, everyone started to get agitated. I can’t. The feeling is too strong.

I eventually moved forward, passing each one.

I went all the way forward and there was Becca. I hit Becca’s head first.

“Hey you crazy bitch.”

“Evil!”

Becca hit her head and then went blind. Then I opened my eyes wide to see who I was.

“Uh? Are you Florian? You’re here to help!”

“I’m here to help. Are you planning on killing us all? I’m not crazy. What is this really about?”

“Are you thinking of killing me? I have no choice but to kill the magicians.”

“Why did such a bitch choose this way? Are you sane or not?”

“You may not know… “

“If you die without knowing, then who will you blame?”

“…”

Becca bit her mouth shut. Judging by her behavior, it was not that she was trying to betray anyone.

I turned my head. I asked Ralph, who was showing a confident attitude earlier.

“Ralph or something. Are you confident that you will survive if you are attacked right here? Can you cope with the magic pouring down from above?”

“Could something like that happen? There is still quite a bit of distance left from the magic society.”

Perhaps feeling uneasy though, Ralph instructed his party.

“You guys advance while crossing between the rooftops of the buildings. I guess I have to advance while looking at high places.”

“Yes.”

But honestly, I didn’t think it would be that much of a contrast.

He spoke again to Becca.

“Hey. Let’s just go back Just set this all back and give me 5x gold coins. I’ll find the Magic Society by myself somehow.”

“Are you crazy! For five gold coins, just go on like this!”

But that was then.

On the rooftops of the buildings, a huge crowd began to be felt.
