Chapter 335 – Chapter 335. Scarlet Light (2)

“Miss Rebecca!”
“Lady! A magic circle!”

The centaur, who had wounds all over his body, fell to his knees at Irene and Isaac’s attack, and Rebecca deployed the prepared magic circle.

“Subdue!”
[Big, big… Ah, ah…]

Rebecca opened the rune’s barrier in the centaur’s heart.
The tiny dot enlarged and turned into a sphere, and the expanded magic passed through the centaur’s entire body.

The result was a barrier of runes with obnoxious lumps of black magic attached to them.
Rebecca gathered the black magic from the barrier and compressed it like a marble.
As if he had solved his own brainwashing, he had separated all of Maestro’s mana from the centaur’s body.

[What? Ugh, the body…]

Before the brainwashed Centaur came to his senses, Rebecca spread the rune’s barrier again and wrapped the Centaur’s body.

[Wait a moment. Human, my brainwashing is done! Now….]
“I’m overpowered! Everyone, please help!”

The centaur tried to convey his will.
The Maestro’s brainwashing was lifted.
I have no reason to fight you guys.
Let’s talk slowly.

However, Rebecca ignored the Centaur’s words and moved his magic power.
I had to subdue him when his brainwashing had just been released and his strength hadn’t returned.
The fact that the brainwashing is over means that you don’t know when you might run away.
If you don’t make it this strong in the first place, you won’t be able to convince the other tracking team.
It is true that he has harmed many people even if it was not his will.

“Make more magical ropes!”
“It’s still not enough! Tie the whole body!”
[Human! Human…! I have no intention of harming you […

The centaur was trapped in a barrier with his whole body tied up like that.

After the subjugation of the centaur is over.
Isaac, Irene, and Rebecca ran to Lee Ho-yeon.

“Wait.”
“Alice? When are you here…”
“Hoyeon told me not to come closer.”

Alice blocked people’s access in front of Lee Ho-yeon’s barrier.
She was surprised to see the woman who suddenly turned into her necklace, but she had to stop her from approaching once, as Lee Ho-yeon asked people to stop.

“… What is the flow of that magical power?”
“Now, wait a minute! If you get closer…”
“I know. I won’t go inside the barrier. Miss Ellis.”
“Ah….”

Rebecca passed Alice’s worried gaze and looked at Lee Ho-yeon inside the rune’s barrier.
A barrier of runes filled with mana in order to be disconnected from the outer space.
Magical power that slows down the time filled within.

“Instead of dominating the barrier of the rune, I filled it with magic power… I slowed it down by slowing it down. No, did it stop?”

In theory, of course, it’s magic that doesn’t make sense.

But Lee Ho-yeon was doing it.
He was even using healing magic at the same time, so he couldn’t even sense how much magic he was controlling at the same time.
At the same time as Rebecca was surprised, Isaac also noticed Lee Ho-yeon’s magic.

“Healing magic… Can be used. Besides, it’s as if the magic has stopped… Ha.”

Incredible talent.
The talent that even he, called the emperor of the night, envied touched the feral nature of an old lion.
He thought that maybe his daughter’s wedding might be sooner than expected.

‘Anyway, what’s the relationship between the two?’

Isaac glanced at Rebecca.
Even while looking at Lee Ho-yeon with worried eyes, she is gaining inspiration as if opening her eyes to a new magic.
However, Isaac listened to Rebecca just before the centaur attacked Lee Ho-yeon.

‘Obviously… He said ‘Dad’.’

It was an urgent battle situation, but I heard it clearly.
Are you daddy?
Do you have a daughter at that age?
No, my daughter is too big for that…

“Guild leader! What should I do with the Centaur?!”
“You guys take care of the wounded! The team leader level takes care of the centaur.”

After roughly answering the guild member’s question, Isaac swallowed as he approached Lee Ho-yeon, who lifted her barrier.

‘Could you lie about your age and illegally enter the academy…? No, the academy isn’t such a lax place….’

Isaac, the guild leader of the Information Guild, once again contemplated the identity of Lee Ho-yeon.

*

The main building of the Iris Guild.
After the operation ended, the tracking team was scattered, and only the main members remained deciding what to do with the centaur.

“Team Leader, wouldn’t it be better to put it in the basement?”
“Or you could leave it up to the French government.”
“Uhm, then it’s kind of a pity. Besides, I can’t extract the information.”
“I think putting it in the basement looks good too.”

The centaur, whose whole body was chained like a mummy in magical ropes, stood still as if he had given up resistance.
On the way back from the operation, I asked Isaac for time to talk alone with the centaur, so he’ll probably arrange it right away.

“Scarlett, are you okay?”
“… Yes.”
– Scout! You live! I trusted you!

Smack smack.

He petted Liliana, who was trembling with joy, and turned her head slightly.
Carrying on her back, Scarlett was ashamed to close her eyes.

Her body is fully recovered, but it is said that her body does not move due to the strong shock.
Because of Scarlett’s personality, there is no reason to put up with her shame, so she must be serious.

“Are you still not moving?”
“… Yes. Embarrassingly.”
“No. You can.”

Scarlett is an elite member of the Iris Guild that also belongs to the tracking team.
Of course, she would have completed training for pain, but if Scarlett felt her shock, how severe the pain must have been for her.
The pain of melting all the skin on her back and burning her intestines.
As for me, I dare not even imagine.

Even so, it’s fortunate, she didn’t say much even when I was carrying Scarlett on my back because everyone knew that Scarlett had saved me.
The medical team arrived shortly after my treatment, but she said directly that she did not want Scarlett to be hospitalized.

“Hoyeonah.”

Then, Elise’s voice came from beside her.

“Ah, Alice. Have you decided what to do with the centaur?”

“Yes. I decided to put it in the basement.”

It’s not that comfortable either.
I like to visit too.

“And Dad said it’s okay to talk to the centaur today, how about it?”
“The sooner the better.”
“Okay. Then tell me like that…”

Alice looked at my necklace and licked her lips.
But she slipped the scarlet on me and shut her mouth.
She seems to be sparing her words because of Scarlett.
In fact, even Scarlett knows everything.

“… I’ll explain that later.”
“Yeah. I’ll be sure to explain. Thank you very much.”

Oh yeah. My head hurts not knowing what to do.
She didn’t expect to catch Liliana.

– Sorry… I left.

Awesome.
What can I do Rather, it might not be bad because I got a chance to talk about hell.
I’ve never had anything go the way I thought it would.
Ellis told Scarlett to take good care of her body and she returned to Isaac.

“Did you catch Alice again?”
“Ah. You don’t know. Liliana was caught.”
“…What the hell did you do?”
“That’s right. Eh.”

Scarlett was injured and a startled Liliana jumped out, but she said it was all to save me, so I have nothing to say.

“Looks like they’re slowly moving the centaur. How are they going to put that huge body underground?”
“Iris Guild has its own magic.”
“There is nothing here.”

Again and again-

Familiar footsteps.
After the conversation about the treatment of centaurs, I saw Rebecca approaching this way.
I spoke to Rebecca first.

“Rebecca, you worked hard.”
“No. The baby’s father worked hard. Oh, will I go back first?”
“Yes, Thanks.”

Rebecca worked very hard today too.
Every time she inquired about her identity, she kissed her along with me.
She also played a big role in catching the centaur.

“Yeah. Come to think of it… I’ve captured the centaur, so I’ve solved all the important things, right?”
“Um, isn’t it?”
“Whoop whoop…”

Rebecca smiled and met her eyes with mine.
… It’s scary.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Seeing good genes made me laugh. Hehe. The barrier earlier was so cool. There are things I can learn from it too. It will have a good effect on my baby as well.”
“…You’re over-appreciating.”

Okay. Finally, the time has come.
Can’t postpone anymore
If you can’t avoid it, you should enjoy it.
I answered Rebecca with a smile.

“Let’s talk slowly. We won’t run away.”
“Yes, I understand. Oh, does the baby daddy’s girlfriend take good care of herself?”
“… Thank you.”

Rebecca waved her hand lightly and went back.
Well, actually, she’s happy to have a woman asking her to have sex with her.

“There are more and more women.”
“…”

Scarlett, who was carrying me, stabbed me with words like thorns.
Actually, I’m a bit scared too.

Can we just increase women like this?

Lucy, Rumi, Nam Da-eun, Baek Ah-young, Moon Su-rin, Ellis, Irene, Liliana, Im Sol, Rebecca, and Scarlett.

“No, 11 people?”

I counted the girls who haven’t been attacked yet, but that’s too many.
Whether it’s a quest or a bet, he disappears without even giving a hint.
They say that if you attack a lot of women, you’ll get points, so I’m doing this for now, but if I continue like this, there will be no end.

– It’s okay. A strong man must have many women!
“Right. I think so too.”

As expected, you can communicate with the succubus.
I cursed hell so much, but I might have to move to hell.

“… Strange people.”

Scarlett shook her head as she watched our conversation.
Come to think of it, she had something to say to Scarlett.

“Scarlett.”
“Yes?”
“Thank you for saving me.”
“… What.”
“Thank you so much and I’m sorry I don’t know what to do.”

How can I express this feeling in words?
I didn’t know it would turn out like this when I first handed out the contract of hell to Scarlett, who followed me.
It’s not enough to have a deep relationship, I thought he would even save my life.

“It’s done. It’s already in the past.”
“I’ll definitely repay you later. Scarlett. No, Scarlett Light.”
“… Use your full name only when it’s important.”
“Yes? For example?”
“Well, it’s like a formal event or a wedding.”
“Hmm…”
“Never say anything strange. Never!”
“I get it, I get it.”

I wanted to make fun of her for not denying Rebecca’s words, but let’s see.

“Lee Ho-yeon.”
“Ah, the guild leader!”

Before I knew it, Isaac, who had moved the centaur underground, approached me.

“The operation was really hard. Ah, Scarlett. You have a lot of hard work too.”
“Thank you, guild leader. I’m sorry I couldn’t greet you.”
“No. Your courage is amazing. That’s right. Lee Ho-yeon. As you may have heard from Elise, the centaur was put in the prison cell of the Iris Guild. The magic seal is working strongly, so you can visit anytime.”
“Thank you. I’ll be sure to visit you today.”

The fact that there was a prison cell in the guild was caught, but it passed naturally.
I need to use what works for me.

“Yeah. And that. Rebecca… Well, no. I had a hard day.”
“Yes. Thank you.”

Isaac muttered something like ‘No way…’ And left.
When Rebecca’s name came up, maybe it was because she frowned slightly to make sure she cut it off if they confronted each other again.
I hope you don’t feel bad.

“Let’s go back to the inn for now.”
“You should go see the centaur.”
“I have to lay you down for now.”
“… Thank you.”

I headed for the dorm with Scarlett on my back.
