Chapter 280 – Tough Guys (2)
“Groom. Where?”
Around the time the subjugation order was finalized. Eve asked me after dragging Aglio Festa’s carriage. She was enjoying the warm sunlight and playing with Selu. When she threw a ball to Selu in the water, he showed a unique technique in which he would spin the ball upright with the tip of her tail.
“Great.”
Let A.A clap your hands and cheer. Selu shrugged her shoulders and smiled.
“Heh… Eve. I was praised by the warrior. Isn’t that great?”
Eve shook her head and giggled at Sellu’s joke. A.A looked at the two and laughed happily, then asked the attendant who was digging her firewood to get a piece of wood. As Sellu and Eve looked at her with all of her eyes, A.A. Scratched her head and said,
“I’ll show you one too.”
Ai said so and threw her firewood high into the sky. As she stared at her firewood flying high, A.A drew her sword and lowered her body her to her position her, so that she wondered if she was playing catch with the sky. Her smile her, her face her hardened hard, and a bitter murderous spirit dwelled in her eyes her.
Firewood plummeted to her floor as fast as she rose. Just before reaching her bottom her, her A-A her body her disappeared, leaving only a blurry afterimage as if hidden in her fog. No, it must have looked that way in the eyes of others. I could see clearly Right before Aye touched her floor, she swung her sword exactly 16 times and chopped her firewood.
The firewood that fell to the floor cracked into small pieces with a pop. The attendants who were watching from the side cheered and started clapping their hands. Eve and Sellu approached and touched the cross section of the firewood, admiring it.
“Wow, this is something I was practicing too, so you cut it so neatly? Fucked up. How long have you been practicing?”
“Eve is also a great swordsman, so you should be able to do it right away. That… Can I tell you something if you don’t mind?”
“Oh, really? That is great.”
Eve was delighted. I looked at the two with a happy expression. I couldn’t be this happy to see my girls playing together.
“What? Lord. Where are you going?”
Sieri, who had just come out, saw me in the carriage and said something. Before I could say where I was going, Eve grabbed Cieri’s hand and said,
“Now then, Sieri’s turn!”
“Yes? Yeah? Mr. Eve? Now, hold on!”
“Sierri. Show me one organ.”
“Now, what about janggi?”
Sieri was bewildered at the expectant glances around her. Aside from A.A. And Eve, attendants and knights were quietly gathering and watching. Sieri rolled her eyes, her face red, then opened her mouth.
“I-I… I will sing a hymn…”
“Now, stop. Everyone. I’m going out for a while. Won’t you say good-bye to me?”
The atmosphere seemed like shit if I sang a real hymn, so I decided to cut it off. Sieri looked at me with an expression as if facing a savior who had come down from the sky. I smiled and looked around again. Eve asked, looking at me as if she had just remembered it.
“So where are you going?”
“Wait a minute to see mom.”
When Eve heard that she was my mother, she raised her head and began to guess her age her.
“Look, my groom’s father… Elf and… Groom’s age… Uh… Are you very old?”
“I don’t know.”
I shrugged and shook my head. Sieri shrugged her shoulders as if she had never seen my mother either. Eve asked.
“You say that only areas you’ve been to once are registered, so you live in Ahildern?”
“What… Right?”
It was not in Ashildern, but in the southern part of the continent, but I decided to omit the cumbersome explanation. I didn’t have a few questions to ask when I met her mother her anyway. What the hell happened in my past, and what kind of person ‘I’ am. Knowing that was enough. Eve said.
“Shall I go with you too?”
“Well, I’m not going to say hello today. I’m going because I have business before I go subjugation. I’ll be back soon. Maybe tomorrow? Will you come back tomorrow? Just waiting.”
“Okay. Should I come soon?”
Eve said that and turned her gaze back to the pool. He had about a month left until he went to the eastern plains, so he planned to visit his mother quickly in the meantime. Aie asked.
“By the way, priest. You said that the wagon normally takes about ten days to charge. I used up the magic stone last time.”
“So I ordered a magic stone from Soya’s side. Although the charging efficiency is not as good as what I normally use… Still, it was charged to some extent.”
In order to properly charge Aglio Festa’s wagon, it took one month’s budget of mana stones. Thanks to that, the trunk of the wagon was full of mana stones. The damage was painful, but worth it. This was better than asking Artie for another one. Because it’s a bit deorgone.
“Then I will go.”
“Have a good trip.”
Shieri smiled and waved her hand. I also smiled at Sieri and pulled the lever. The world was disorganized for an instant, and the wagon thumped to the ground.
I scratched my head and looked around. This was a huge cliff. As if the original road had been cut away, the floor was muddy. I pulled my feet out of the unpleasant floor where even the wagon wheels were sinking, and walked briskly.
“What the fuck is that smell?”
I pinched my nose and squinted my eyes. It smelled of rotten eggs everywhere. Steam was rising from the floor. The closer I got to it, the stronger the acrid smell. The whole neighborhood seemed to be covered in gas. I decided to pull the wagon and get out of this area. After pulling the wagon all the way back, I was able to reach an area where the ground was flat and the gas was thin. Just in case, I took the wagon to the cave at the foot of the mountain and hid it.
It was an area overflowing with gas that made my head dizzy just by smelling it. If the wagon exploded, the way back was blocked, so we had to handle it carefully. I implanted the mana stone into the battery and walked back to the place I arrived a little while ago.
Dark green mud covered all sides. Looking down at the bottom of the cliff, thick smoke was rising from the bottom. The smoke rising from the floor was thick methane gas of a different quality than the smoke rising from around here.
I shook my head and continued walking forward. Do people live in a place like this? There was no way Salina would have lied like that. Because Meigar’s oath is that absolute. However, it was hard to believe that Lucius’ real mother, a human, was living here.
“Who are you?”
I heard a voice that covered my mouth with a stuffy mask. When I turned around, there was a woman with a hood covering her face. She must have lived her life as a housemaid in Russia, and her sturdy build and tall stature her made her race suspicious, but her status window her confirmed that she was a woman.
[Name: Peta Marina
Affiliation: The Last Resident of the Brimstone Land]
She was also a woman with the surname ‘Peta’. I shook her hand at her, who was stricken with her vigilance her, and said.
“Uh, mother?”
“… Peta Lucius?”
She called my name in a calm tone. I nodded. Her tiger-like eyes were suddenly filled with pensiveness. She seemed to have a lot to say to me. However, she pointed to the end of the valley and said this in a blunt tone befitting an honest appearance.
“First, let’s go upstairs and talk.”
I followed her up her path to her. At the end of the valley I saw a small cabin. Peta Marina asked me while climbing the mountain path.
“Doesn’t the neighborhood smell awful?”
“The thought of meeting my mother made it fragrant.”
Peta Marina didn’t say a word in response to my fawning her. Was her fuck her too over the top. Was it irrational that the smell of sulfur was fragrant? I thought Peta Lucius would say something like this?
“…What brought you here?”
Halfway up the valley, Peta Marina asked me. I decided to answer honestly.
“In Achildern, I accidentally found out that I was caught in the oath of the Mei family.”
“…I see.”
Peta Marina’s shoulders her trembled. Her tone she pretended to be calm, but there was a hint of emotional agitation. She knew something It seemed like I finally got a clue about my past her.
“Do you know about Meiga’s oath?”
“I know. By the way, wouldn’t it be nice to visit your father’s grave before that?”
“My father’s grave?”
Sally I told her that Sirius’ grave is here. If that was true, she had no reason not to go. A hint could have been hidden even in the graveyard. Behind Peta Marina’s gruff voice her, her muscular arms her once again pointed to the end of the valley. Her finger was pointing to the back of the little cabin.
“Okay. The grave of Peta Sirius. Would you like to go up first?”
“Yes. I know.”
She said and went inside the cabin. I waited in front of the door for a while and saw a cross at the end of the ravine behind the cabin and moved on. There was once a tomb of a man who saved humanity from the demon king. On the shabby cross was the name Peta Sirius. Is this really the hero’s tomb? I looked back.
I could see Peta Marina through the window. She crumpled and threw something while reading and walked out through her back door to where I was. She was wearing one of her thick overcoats, and her gait her seemed very heavy when she moved.
“Sirius is buried beneath this valley. The bones were ground and scattered in the valley. Lucius. Won’t you pray with me? Let’s talk later.”
There was no reason not to. Let me approach the end of the valley. She trembled slightly. When I stopped halfway, Peta Marina said.
“Go ahead a little further. You must show your face to your father.”
I’m not stupid. Peta Marina looked desperate. Her body was shaking slightly and her pupils were shaking. I cautiously took one more step forward.
“More.”
One more step
“More… More, go…”
And the moment you take another step,
Chi-ik.
I heard the sound of a fire being lit behind me. As I turned her head, Peta Marina, throwing her coat in the air, lunged at me. She had explosives wrapped around her body.
“Die! Devil! On behalf of Sirius, you…!”
The wick was on fire. I dodged her by quickly rolling over her. Floating into the air, Peta Marina floated in the air and looked at me with her bewildered face. She screamed as she reached out to me.
“No, no, no, no, no!!!”
With a scream, the figure of Peta Marina disappeared into the valley. After a while, a blue flame flashed in the thick methane gas, and a huge pillar of fire rose from one and started spewing flames in all directions. I just stared at the flames, like rivers of hell, with a dumbfounded face.
