Chapter 443 – The Man and Woman Who Came to Meet Us

A laboratory located deep in Nema Natas.

The elf closed the book with a sigh and repeatedly opened and closed her white hands.

I can’t hide that I have a lot of worries in my every action. I can assure you that these are the most painful days of my life.

‘I have lived my whole life exploring forbidden knowledge. My situation is that I have to rely on luck at critical moments.’

Even though I am an elf, I have forgotten the happiness that a green forest gives me.

I lived like Ji Bak-ryeong, who was chained to a laboratory with an evil talent.

I don’t remember a single day when I wasted time devouring and accumulating knowledge.

Developing and gaining power and influence is always about moving forward.

The operation and existence of Nema Natas, which was developed with such a single thought, was nothing but a tool for obtaining the answer to this experiment.

But.

Despite investing so much material and time, how cruel is the reality?

I failed to be perfect in my preparation.

The consequences are inevitable. It is at this time that we are forced to make decisions we don’t feel like making.

‘Damn…’

Even though it was clearly a section that would not have gone wrong according to the calculation, it failed.

Everything went wrong because one of the pieces, an artifact of the Bright family, was not obtained.

One major part was missing, so no matter how much time I invested in digging into the language of high-ranking demons, I couldn’t figure out a direction.

“Come out.”

With determination, I opened my mouth and spoke out.

It had been a few days since I had said anything, and I felt a pain in my throat.

Kkieeeeek -!!!

An offering box that is the symbol of a warlock.

An object accompanied by a bizarre screaming sound appeared.

‘I didn’t want to touch it until I was sure…’

Now he has no time or means to wait.

Looking at the reaction of the church and the imperial family after Enoch Skadi died, they must have smelled something.

“Take out the saint.”

Crash!

In response to the owner’s voice, the sacrificial box opened half way and black smoke seeped out.

A formless force moved the remains of the saint stored inside to the test table.

‘The condition is no problem.’

Take a walk and observe the neatly preserved invoice.

‘A trace of the goddess’ intervention in the world. A miracle embodied.’

Depending on how it is used, it is a fragment of God that can create the possibility for high-ranking demons to interfere in this world.

I was happy just to look at it. There are some big things that have become the pillars of goals like this that have been successfully accomplished.

‘First, start with the reaction experiment. The first was… The eyeball of the solvent and Anis, the Ripper’s tooth, and the wrinkles of the devil hardened with the blood of the troll.’

The elf, who only held the book to relieve her stiff fingers, moved her hands carefully.

Since it became impossible to use it for its first purpose, I decided to analyze the existence of the miracle myself.

From now on, we will not tolerate even a single mistake.

What is in front of you is not Blanc’s bastard from the Federal Bureau, but a real saint.

Goddesses, like saints, are the most elaborate creations, and saints of the Empire and saints of the Federation are of equal value.

It’s not that Nema Natas didn’t target the empire’s saint.

However, if it were of the same value, I would have chosen a federal country with loose boundaries and awareness of warlocks.

If this analysis failed, the plan was to capture the saint even if it meant having to turn away from the entire empire.

Sarak-

“···!”

The moment he lifts the solvent.

Her jet-black feathers spun around and fell to the floor.

“···Who are you?”

The elf returned his solution to its place and reached out to place his offering box next to him.

The laboratory is a closed space with no windows.

It makes no sense for a bird to come inside and flutter its feathers. Moreover, it is impossible for birds and the like to avoid detection.

– This body is the part that rules Pandemonium. This is the first claw that serves Malphas.

The space is torn apart and crow feathers pour down like rain.

A gloomy voice rang through the laboratory.

– You have a body that looks delicious.

A huge eyeball moved through the gaping space and saw the saint’s remains.

There are demons who come to tempt him from time to time, but this was his first time openly mentioning the name of a high-ranking demon.

‘···A big man has arrived. But there is no need to be scared.’

The saint must not be handed over now.

The holy power and the temperament of a trickster that the name Malpas possesses. I repeat that to myself over and over again.

There is a possibility that something irreversible could happen with just one slip of the tongue.

– Mimul. Bow your head and swear allegiance.

“It’s a waste of time. I’m not a warlock like Mendes Pentagram. If you’re looking for a servant to exploit, go find them.”

He is a devil who oppresses the heart with just his gaze and voice.

Even though I speak confidently, my mouth is dry from tension.

– But you are greedier than I. It is a lump of desire that wants something too much.

“···.”

– Mimul. I will give you a chance to gain Malphas’ favor. 

Without even having time to say that I refuse to be loved.

The feathers scattered on the floor began to gather together and take on the shape of a human.

‘Who is this guy?!’

And the face that is revealed. It was a familiar face.

Isn’t he the platinum adventurer that Juergena was proud to deal with?

– Malphas’s faithful servant. This is the person who brought down the Seventh Claw Zaichik.

“···What nonsense? You didn’t pick the right person to fool. That’s impossible.”

From the devil’s perspective, it does not tell the truth about how the indecent act occurred.

Let’s infer it.

The devil with the name is a form that is close to inviolable in today’s world. You can’t interfere that deeply.

Various possibilities spread out like roots in the elf’s mind.

‘That adventurer has been to Pandemonium… Or is there someone in Mendes Pentagram who signed a contract with Malphas? Or, did they hit you on the back with a special artifact or contract?’

Or, there is a possibility that the statement itself is a lie. Considering Malphas’s tendencies, this is the biggest.

– Questions are not allowed. Catch that human and offer him as an offering to Malphas. Then, I will give you the knowledge you want.

“!”

The mana that tore through the space took shape and drew the characters of high-ranking demons.

What she wanted to be flashed before her eyes.

‘Think calmly and calmly. Malphas is too dangerous a demon to be traded with…’

But it is true that it is tempting.

I keep my mouth closed and do the calculations thoroughly. In limited situations, results come quickly.

‘No matter how you look at it, I have the upper hand.’

You have a choice until you catch the adventurer and hand him over.

“Good. It won’t matter if I hand it over as a corpse, right?”

– It is enough to have a soul. This body will give you strength, so move it yourself.

“I refuse. I will send many the following.”

– What a puny man-yong.

A promise to the devil should be as concise as possible if there is no contract.

Also, if the other person is a deceiver or a being who serves the devil, it is fundamental to move against language.

‘Power received for free is deadly poison.’

The only fool who readily accepts what the devil gives him is Mendes Pentagram.

– I will watch.

The huge eyeball closed, and the gaping space healed.

‘I guess I’ll have to call Juergena again.’

The knight was confident that he was enough on his own, but when this happens, the story is completely different.

Kkeeeeek-!!!

The elves who collected the remains of the saint by offering them again.

After a long time, I opened the lab door and went outside.

*****

Roman put his feet into his leather boots and raised his head.

The gaze of lovers staring at themselves.

As she smiles and opens her arms, she embraces me.

“It’s dinner tonight, right?”

“Yes. I have prepared the cooking ingredients. Furthermore, I will prepare them later.”

“The church plans to meet Eclair when she returns!”

– Sigh!

The day Atra accepted the invitation and said she would come to the mansion.

The mansion’s kitchen was full of special ingredients.

“Eat a lot of delicious food. Have fun.”

“Be careful too, brother. Okay?”

“Hiing… Brother…”

“Don’t worry. I’ll be back soon. If anything happens, send me a signal right away.”

After asking him to apologize for having to inevitably overlap with his outing.

Roman greeted each person sincerely and left the mansion.

“Roman! I’ll cook a lot of food for you!”

After turning the corner and waving to the lovers who followed me out into the yard.

Roman increased his walking speed.

‘What did you prepare as a trap?’

Roman was wearing light clothing with no visible space to store a proper weapon.

The adventurer with the platinum pattern twirled her tile with her fingers and headed towards the gate as if taking a walk.

“Adventurer. Where are you going?”

“What’s the name there? Wait a minute.”

3 Open the letter the driver sent you and check the destination once again.

Roman finished the operation and headed towards the gate where the mana was fluctuating.

Uuuuung ㅡ!

The scenery in sight changed in an instant.

‘Hmm?’

As soon as he arrived, Roman’s head moved as he read the popularity.

The two people who were waiting in the wide space lowered their heads when Roman’s eyes fell.

“Roman. Ismay sends greetings.”

“This is Bernstein.”

There is one man and one woman who say they have come to guide us under Juergena’s orders.

Roman’s eyes narrowed.

‘What are these?’

I don’t know what magic or artifact was used.

Roman feels the unclean energy and mana that were tried to be hidden through some means.

‘I think they belong to Nema Natas… Do these bastards view people as dicks?’

Has the Empire been being too quiet recently?

I couldn’t help but laugh as I looked at these guys who came to me believing that they wouldn’t get caught.

“Are they servants?”

“···Yes.”

Ismeira, the woman who introduced herself, answered as best as she could, which she didn’t want to do.

The man named Bernstein takes a step back and bows. I could see his fists gaining strength.

‘It’s as if the woman answers first and then looks at her feelings.’

You can clearly see the hierarchy between the two.

Plus, I feel like I’m taking on a role I don’t want to play.

‘Fun. Very.’

Roman called Ismay with her finger and placed him next to her.

I put my hand on her shoulder and grabbed one of her breasts and massaged it.

“The size isn’t bad.”

“Huh!”

The blood of a unicorn is like a screaming prostitute.

Roman, who tried to ignore it, raised one corner of her mouth.

“Pour a drink next to me today.”

“I understand…”

Isn’t it fun not to hide your shameful face?

In his head, he might be dreaming of revenge.

“And.”

Roman’s eyes turned to Bernstein, who was raising his eyes from behind.

Eyes that look as if they might shed bloody tears of anger at any moment.

Roman, having the courage to not avoid eye contact, moved his hand.

Wow -!

“Whoa!”

Roman’s fist, swung roughly without any mana, hit Bernstein.

I put it in a corner.

“Don’t make fun of people just because they’re standing behind you. You’ll die.”

“···.”

“Guide me.”

Roman grabbed Ismay’s breasts so tightly that it hurt and made her walk.
