Chapter 192 – Chapter 192. Blood Relationship Ties (2)

Sigh- sigh-

Crunch-

Home of Pandemic.

Chains and multi-layered magic circles with special magical powers were installed, and a centaur was bound in the center.

I didn’t really resist, but it was because the centaur’s power was so strong that it would be dangerous if I didn’t do this.

“Apostle, please spread the flames of hell to the human world…”

The Maestro prayed with his hands folded in front of the centaur.

– Stupid humans don’t understand the language… They can’t even recognize F-rank mercenaries.

And Rebecca, who was standing behind him, quietly closed her eyes.

‘Crazy bastards.’

That centaur who forcibly hides his magical power and pretends to be weak, or the maestro who acts despite knowing everything.

It was clear that both of them were crazy.

“Human massacre, or human slavery. Anything can help.”

– If you’re not interested, go away.

“Apostle, if you accepted the summoning contract, then you are saying that there is something you want in the human world. It’s okay, so please tell me.”

– Ha ha, I’ve never done anything like a contract. I don’t even know why I’m here

However, despite the Maestro’s continued courtship, the centaur did not change her mind.

Eventually, the maestro also had to change her methods.

It was best to convince him like this, but he had no choice but to use his precious magic.

“… Rebecca. I can’t.”

“Yes. Maestro.”

As soon as the Maestro called her name, Rebecca energized her.

Gying-

Soon, a barrier of runes spread around the centaur.

“Haa, beasts can’t understand words, so they’re beasts.”

– Say whatever you want. Anyway, I’m… Big?!

Rune’s Barrier.

The reason why it was called the best, worst, and worst barrier wasn’t simply because it didn’t break easily.

The rune’s clan only sharpens the rune’s barrier all their lives.

When the power of the lineage flowing from the rune family is added to that, a completely different magic from the normal barrier is completed.

That’s why their barriers are different.

The ability to control the inside of the barrier.

Its ability grows stronger as the boundary is narrower.

– Big. Big….

“Apostle. Look into my eyes.”

The air that has completely disappeared inside the barrier.

There was even strong pressure and shock, but the centaur was still fine.

“Hmm, Rebecca. Let’s keep the barrier as it is. It’s going to take a long time to convince the apostle.”

“Yes. Maestro. I will go.”

– Ugh…

“Now, Apostle. I’ll say it again…”

Clap-

Watching the Maestro cling to the centaur, Rebecca shuts the door and slips out of her stronghold.

Haha… It takes too much mana to stop the Maestro’s brainwashing. He’s crazy anyway.”

Rebecca is able to block Maestro’s brainwashing because she covers herself with a barrier of runes, but her acting can be seen if she makes eye contact with her for a long time.

What’s so dangerous is that guy’s ability.

That centaur will also rebel, but like the other officers, it will soon be captured.

“Thank you for your hard work. Rebecca.”

Rebecca’s henchman, who was waiting outside, approached.

“Yes. How is Lee Ho-yeon’s situation?”

“After checking the hospital’s data, it seems that he will be discharged soon.”

“Ohhh… Ok.”

Rebecca smiled with joy at the thought of meeting a survivor of her clan soon.

Dahee Nam was not paying attention to this side because she was busy playing, and Daeun Nam was still playing with Dahee with a slightly reddened face.

“What else is from hell? That’s a monster in hell?”

“No, I don’t know that. But do you see the mercenary plaque hanging around your neck over there?”

“A mercenary?”

I stared at the TV screen with my eyes closed.

I was able to see it in detail because the video was stopped while the experts came out and explained what was going on.

“I think it says F…”

“That necklace? What does that have to do with hell?”

It was a necklace with a strange design, but nothing unusual about it.

Originally, monsters like weird designs.

“It’s not a necklace, it’s a mercenary card used in hell.”

“No, wait. It says F. But why the hell do you write that?”

English is the language of the human world.

Why do you speak English in hell?

“What are you talking about? Of course, the mercenary plaque should be written in English.”

“…”

There’s a lot I want to point out, but I just skipped over it.

In the first place, I’m also talking to a succubus, so what’s the point of using English in hell?

“So who is that centaur? Is he famous?”

I don’t know why he’s here, but isn’t it dangerous if he’s a famous name in Hell?

“No. F is the lowest rank. Among the mercenaries, they are the most garbage. They are the ones who clean the garbage in the dungeon.”

“Didn’t you see the video? People fly like garbage?”

Even if the cleaner is a chore like that, the day it comes, the earth will perish.

“Hmm… That’s right. There’s no way that level of strength is F-class.”

Fortunately, even in Hell, it seems to be strong enough.

“First of all, that’s not what’s important. So, do you have any idea why that centaur is doing that in this world?”

“I don’t know. He probably came with a contract like me.”

Liliana was fixating her eyes on the TV, perhaps glad to see her long-lost companion in Hell.

He’s useless when it’s really important.

“Contracts, hell, monsters, city raids…”

I slowly looked back at the original work and wondered what I could infer from that centaur.

It’s a monster I’ve never seen before, but there might be even a little hint in the original story.

“If a monster with intelligence attacks like that and terrorizes it, it will definitely be difficult to deal with.”

“Right… Wait a minute, terror?”

“Yes. Why are you like that?”

A word accidentally thrown by Scarlett.

Terror.

When it comes to terrorism, there is a group that comes to mind.

Mine Collective Pandemic.

And the story of fighting the pandemic in the original came to mind one by one.

“… Apostle.”

Pandemic has the concept of an apostle.

It is a concept called the devil’s subjugation, but from then on, the attack of the pandemic intensifies and strong monsters that do not exist in the original world appear.

There was a lot of swearing at the setting that was forced to come out to adjust the collapsed power balance… But that’s the case.

I’ve never seen a centaur like that among the apostles.

The first apostle in the original work is not a monster like that, but a round, sticky slime.

‘I don’t know where it came from… But something is twisted.’

An intelligent centaur.

That means that the words speak.

“I want to talk to that centaur at least once, but is there any way?”

I said while looking at Scarlett, who is the brainiest among us.

Because he can communicate, he may know information about Hell, the Demon Lord, or Liliana that he did not know.

“Well, anyway, our Iris Guild is also looking for a way to subdue that centaur. It suddenly disappeared in the middle of the city, but it seems to be still located on the French side.”

“That’s right. The Iris Guild is also in France.”

Alice must be tough too.

Shall we dig into that?

Joining forces with the Iris Guild to catch the centaur…

‘Come to think of it, how can I subdue that.’

It just looks damn strong.

Even if you have a fighting sense, it is difficult to deal with people in other weight classes.

I don’t know if there is another way.

“Yes. It might be difficult for me to be here every day now.”

“Okay. Okay.”

In fact, until now, where I was here every day, it was abnormal.

Scarlett is also a person with her own job.

“Hell… Hell…”

Liliana was staring at the TV, not paying attention to our conversation.

★ Heroine Status Window

[Liliana]

– [ Likeability: 97 ] ( +1.6 )

Current Status: What is Mom doing…

“Liliana.”

“Yes?”

“Do you want to talk to that centaur?”

“… It’s not really like that, but every time I see that horseman, I get a strange feeling.”

Why is this unusual?

“Do as usual. Just whining is what works for you.”

“What are you saying, you must be crazy. Where is a succubus as modest as me?”

Hell.

It’s a place I didn’t think much of, but it kept appearing in the story.

Pandemic, and Liliana.

Maybe it’s really important.

“… Honey, what is this?”

“Yes? Why suddenly?”

Back at the hospital, I had a regular check-up as usual, but Baek A-young’s voice trembled strangely as she placed her hand on me.

“The circuit… No, the whole body is getting better. Rather than being healthy… It’s getting better…?”

“Ah….”

I received a huge increase in natural healing power as a reward, but it seems that he did that after seeing it.

But is it that surprising?

“I did get a skill recently. But is that enough?”

“It’s so clean and perfectly healed naturally. At this rate, the efficiency of the mana circuit will be better than before the injury.”

Oh, when you see that surprise, the efficiency must be amazing.

“Then will the discharge be a little earlier?”

I asked Baek A-young with the expectation of being discharged.

“Tomorrow… No, tomorrow I’ll be able to leave the hospital.”

Is it too good?

I still had so many things to do that I thought staying in the hospital was a waste of time.

However, Baek A-young’s expression was not good.

It must be because the time to see each other decreases after being discharged.

I’m sorry again

“But… You have to come often for health checkups, right?”

Baek Ah-young heard me and met her eyes with mine.

“Huh? Ah… Yeah. That’s fine.”

“I’ll keep coming. Don’t worry.”

“… You have to come every day, honey.”

“I see.”

Tight-

I was hugging Baek Ah-young, who had a melancholy expression, and Baek A-yeong, who held her in my arms, started talking in a serious voice.

“…It’s time for her to leave the hospital, so she has something to tell you.”

“Um. What is it?”

What are you trying to say by setting the mood like this?

I waited for the next word with a little nervousness.

“I didn’t tell you because I was worried about my condition… During the terrorist attack, there was someone who passed out and approached me.”

“… Yes.”

It’s the first time I hear it

Baek Ah-young said that she didn’t tell her because she was worried about my condition, so maybe there was a shocking incident.

“He asked me to tell you this.”

Whoa.

Baek Ah-young sighed once and as if she was remembering that time, she slowly opened her mouth.

“I came from the past clan, so I will visit you again when I recover.”

“…A clan from the past?”

“You don’t have to tell me right now. You probably have something you want to hide. But… Please tell me someday. I want to help you too.”

Baek A-young held my hand tightly and sent her desperate eyes.

She had the look in her eyes that she would carry all the secrets she had with the person she loved.

Of course, I was just embarrassed to receive such stares.

‘No, what is the clan of the past?’

It really hurts my head
