Chapter 263 – Why Are You Keeping Your Eyes Open, Mr. Stell?
One.
“Okay, that’s fine then… Just as the boss said, you can just screw it all up…”
Despite my request, Stel muttered softly with his eyes stained with madness, as if he had been pierced by the word ‘freak it out’.
No, what did he hear me say so far? I told him not to do that over and over again for almost 5 minutes.
It was a pity that Stell hadn’t recognized his habit of muttering his inner thoughts out of his mouth yet, and he almost didn’t know that he had conceived the idea of physically destroying the culprit of the past.
Reassured that such a terrible event could have been prevented, I opened my mouth to tell Stell that I wasn’t telling this story to take it in that sense.
“Hey Mr. Stell, I mean…”
But as I was about to say something, Stell suddenly said, ‘If you didn’t mean it that way, then what did you mean? Do you have any other meanings of being self-righteous?
How should I answer if you really ask me that? ‘Correspondence meant to excite with sex. You can’t even say, ‘I messed up, and then I screwed up.’
The weight was too heavy to spit out the truth, so I had to say something to avoid asking the question, ‘Then, how did you kill the boss?’
“What do you mean…?”
“Ah, that’s why…”
However, just because I was thinking about that method, it wouldn’t pop out like a vending machine drink, and I just gave up on finding a way right now because my head was frozen in surprise at Stell’s eyes stained with madness.
Instead, I decided to teach you how to apply the brakes so that Stell doesn’t accelerate suddenly when he finds out how to do it.
“What I mean is that George is good, but don’t think about grinding yourself too much. There are me and Emme next to Stell right now, right? Both of us are older and more experienced than Mr. Stell. Because I have experience of beating bad guys… So, if that happens, tell us first and ask us to do it.”
Stell’s eyes were stained with madness, but he was still Stell.
The fact that he is a new employee of the proud Paster Dungeon Rescue Insurance and Rescue Request Office, who is kind, lively, mild, cute, and pretty, has not changed.
So, if I say this now, no matter how sternly I say it, if I don’t actually put it into action, unlike Scar and other people who don’t know the end, he will understand.
Yes, Stell is different from the carefree guys I’ve been through. After he saved me, he said that he was different from those guys who had basically been told to hand over the bundle. A person who knows how to repay the favor So, if I say it like this, I won’t make it too big by blowing things up on my own…
“But… This is my job. I can’t lend a hand to the boss and Unni Em. You two are already getting so much help.”
······This is not enough. Well, borrowing someone else’s personal revenge only leaves a sense of shame rather than a sense of accomplishment.
She knew Stell’s feelings better than anyone else, as I had gone through her sad academy days like her.
Of course, unlike Stell, the person who bullied me was so powerful that I couldn’t deal with it, so I didn’t have a vengeance in the first place, and I was able to get revenge only after receiving the fake hypnosis application.
But Stella is different from me. The guys who bullied Stell are all weaker than Stell, and if Stell doesn’t care about their hindquarters, he has the ability to destroy them enough.
It was really dangerous because being able to do what you set your mind to means that it’s not strange no matter when you do it.
If Stell, who was already featured in the famous family through the last interview, privately insults the children of the famous family, the famous families who were watching will not stand still.
Like Scar and Laffy, the power that can be mobilized from this side is obviously strong, but their power is not all of the Awoken world, and there are definitely gaps for others to squeeze in.
That’s why it was most important to make sure that Stell didn’t do things on his own.
Now, Stell has rejected my offer, saying that he cannot lend a hand to anyone else. If so, there is only one way to make it impossible to refuse.
“Mr. Stell, I don’t know yet what you think of us. At least, I consider Stell a member of the family.”
“Yes Yes?! Poetry, food?”
You just need to be so close that you can’t even call them strangers.
At my words, which instantly closed the distance, Stell blushed and opened his eyes wide in embarrassment.
I called for joy in my heart at the embarrassment that even the madness in the green eyes was blown away.
Done. I was worried for a moment that I might have shortened the distance too suddenly, but the reaction is better than I thought. I’m just embarrassed, but I don’t see any signs of dislike. Now, here, ‘We are a family that works for the same company. If Stel does something bad by herself, I’ll be very sad.’
Now that you’ve prepared what to say, all you have to do is drive the wedge.
I opened my mouth in a serious voice, facing Stel directly so that I could feel the sincerity in his voice.
“We······.”
Shyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Bang!!!
However, my high-spirited remark, ‘We’re a mess,’ didn’t come to an end, and was interrupted in the middle by Senior Silk, who appeared riding a beast like a huge horse.
“I’m here, Patsy!”
Why, at this timing?
Without even realizing what he had done, Senior Silk greeted me by waving his hand on the back of the Witchbeast, whose black mane was blazing like flames, as if he was just happy to see me.
Really, the anger at being cut off disappeared from the face that seemed like a silk senior who didn’t have any worries.
Yes, Senior Silk is just doing that because he likes me, so why are you angry? If you get angry, only Senior Silk feels unfair.
I said that I thought of you as the most important member of the family anyway, so I thought it would be okay, and greeted Silk senior.
“You came so quickly? What is that demon?”
“I worked hard because I wanted to see Patsy as soon as possible! And he’s the A-class monster that was the boss of that dungeon! It seems to be a speed-specialized class A monster, so I tamed it to get out quickly!”
“I see. It’s good. Cool Seeing it this way is really cool.”
“Is not it? Do you especially like this glowing black mane because it looks like Passy hair?”
As always, I just continued a comfortable conversation with Silk senior without much thought.
As a result, I was naturally distracted by the conversation with Senior Silk, and because of that, I couldn’t listen to Stell’s muttering quietly.
“Family······. The boss and I are members of the family… Hehe.”
2.
Located in the basement of the Awakened Association, a detention center dedicated to villains that temporarily imprisons awakened criminals who have not yet gone on trial, commonly known as villains.
Regardless of the seriousness of the crime, only a certain number of people were randomly put into each specially treated cage, so the fight, including ranking order, did not stop inside the cage.
Bang! Kwajik! Quick! Bang! Blah blah!
Gree Blossom, who was transferred here a week ago… No, now that she was excommunicated from the family, she was just throwing herself into the rank order that was repeated every day as usual.
“······ Big, Huh Eok.”
Thud!
When the big villain in front of him collapsed, shaking the floor like a puppet with a string cut off, Grie let out the breath he had been holding back and cursed at him.
“Haha······. Fuck…”
The young Awakener, who lost the family that protected him, naturally became a target for the villains behind bars, and Grie struggled with the villains originally in the detention center and the new ones entering every day.
And in all of those fights, Gree’s ability to shine in second place in the overall academy performance shone, and so far he has been able to watch himself without losing a single fight.
“Sir baaaaal! 이 개새끼야!!!!”
Kwajik! Knock! Quack!
However, even though he did not lose a single fight, he became impatient and nervous as time passed.
In order to soothe his nervousness, he randomly trampled on the large villain who had already fallen, but the confusion in his heart did not calm down.
He knew very well that doing such a thing would not change his situation.
“Dog fuck…! If you are handed over to trial like this, then you will be really fucked…!”
Gree, who was only notified that he was unilaterally excommunicated, tried to contact Kiri Blossom, the person in power in the Blossom family, by making all sorts of modifications, but none of his attempts could reach Kiri.
In the first place, except for the strength of the family, Grie was just a slightly promising B-level Awakener.
“I can hold on now, but if I am handed over to trial and sentenced, then…”
Imagining what would happen afterwards, he bit his teeth and kicked the big villain, who became bloody, and blew it to the barbed wire.
“I really can’t. That shouldn’t happen. I, I’m not the kind of person who would go to a place like that…!”
He still wouldn’t admit that he had done anything wrong, but he had a vague idea of where he would end up in one of the many Awoken prisons.
The crime committed by Grie is an attempted murder, and that is a very serious crime because he tried to kill Stel, a symbol of hope, just because he was a lowly Awakener.
Grie knew that there were only a few places where villains who had committed such serious crimes went, and that all of them were terrible enough to be called the Villains’ Hell.
That’s why, as time passed, he became nervous and exhausted, but that doesn’t change the situation he finds himself in.
“Someone, someone please get me out of here…!”
When he thought of the common sense that he knew very well the situation he was in and the future that would follow, he began to pray so earnestly that he could not be heard.
However, this world was a world where things beyond common sense happened so naturally.
Dump.
“Okay? Shall I take it out then?”
He threw the guard guarding the cage to the floor like throwing garbage, and a man wearing a robe appeared in front of him and asked in a very calm voice.
The answer to that question was fixed.
