Chapter 759

Episode 759 Choice and Decision (2)

The time So-yeong was talking to Levia whom she met in the garden.

Dark Young left the mansion and looked around the estate.

As if showing traces of time, the walls of the castle were covered with moss.

There were residents enjoying the peace in it.

It seems quite different from the current situation of the count family.

“The lord is soft.”

Seeing this for some reason reminds me of when I was in the principality.

As he recalled the time when he mixed with the goblins and was hit and run, a gentle smile spread across his blunt lips.

Wandering the streets, he tried to go outside the gates to look outside.

Then, a soldier who was on guard stopped the black spirit.

“You stand still.”

“What’s going on?”

“Looks like you’re going out alone without a companion, but it’s dangerous outside. You could get seriously hurt.”

“Don’t worry about my body. Even if I get hurt, even if I die, I die.”

“Hey, people are so picky.”

The soldier stuck out his tongue and gestured toward the other side.

Then a young man who looked young even at first glance came running.

“Did you call?”

“Are you free now? Will you escort Lee to the bottom and come?”

“of course.”

The young soldier answered confidently.

It was not at all welcome from the point of view of the Dark Young, who was more comfortable alone.

“No need. Didn’t I say that I would protect my body?”

“Don’t hesitate and take me. I feel uncomfortable seeing so many people who died talking like you.”

He smiled, showing his yellow teeth, but it wasn’t right to refuse, so Heukyoung sighed.

“Only down to the mountain range.”

“Hahaha, if we go any further than that, we will also leave the place of work.”

“…egg plant.”

As the black spirit led the way, the young soldier followed.

The two of them left the castle gate after being sent off and walked through the meadow without saying a word.

The young soldier asked if it was difficult for him to endure the heavy silence in his heart.

“What are you doing over the mountain?”

“I don’t know.”

“As a sentinel guarding the city gates, I have the right to ask questions.”

“Keuk… It’s going up.”

“Upward? You don’t have any companions or luggage to do that, do you?”

“I am a local merchant. I don’t have money for a companion or escort, and I’m confident in protecting this one body, so I don’t need it.”

“It is good to be confident, but be careful not to be conceited. There was a group of merchants the other day…”

The young soldier couldn’t speak and poured out words without a break, as if he were possessed by a dead ghost.

The Dark Spirit, who had only tried to go as far as the mountain range quietly, wanted to cover his ears.

Dark Young, who had to listen to a story he didn’t want to hear for a long time, accelerated his steps when the mountain range came into view.

“That way is dangerous. Let’s go together.”

“Okay, now stop and go.”

“It can’t be. Isn’t it my job to protect the people?”

Who is protecting whom?

It seemed that he had become a sword master just because he was so fragile that he would break if kicked.

‘This is the area of bandits from now on.’

There’s nothing good about causing a fuss.

Heukyoung rebuked him with good words.

“Wouldn’t it be difficult for a soldier to leave his duty station? I can’t bother you anymore, so please go back.”

Speaking softly, even the young soldier seemed a little worried.

“But…”

“At this point, I can say that I have done my duty. Don’t worry about me…”

He was about to finish his words.

Many signs were felt in the bush.

sloppy movement.

Seeing that the mountain birds are silent and do not run away, they are not monsters.

The young soldier said, as if he still hadn’t noticed the difference.

“I will accompany you a little longer. There are many bandits around here, so it is dangerous to go alone.”

It seems that I picked the wrong day today.

As misfortune struck within misfortune one after another, Heukyoung felt a headache.

He pushed the young soldier back and shouted into the bushes.

“Slowly come out.”

almost simultaneously.

A large number of bandits appeared dressed in costumes made of boar and orc hides.

“You’re a quick-witted guy.”

“Looking at the clothes you’re wearing, you’re a bundle merchant. Are you taking that guy as an escort too? Ha ha ha!”

The bandits openly ignored the soldiers.

He was only wearing plate armor, but he looked like he had just become an adult.

Among the five or six bandits, the most rugged-looking man gave a small chin.

“Go off the kid. You can also put everything you have and go.”

At his words, Heukyoung raised his sword as if he was surprised.

Originally, most of the bandits on the periphery were brutal, bloodless, and without tears.

Far from paying attention to passers-by, selling everything that can be sold and even throwing people away as monster food is commonplace, so you can go as long as you give money.

Sure enough, the subordinates protested as if it were nonsense.

“yes? What kind of small grain is the boss?”

“This guy looks pretty good, so wouldn’t it be nice to sell him as a slave?”

The man called the boss firmly restrained him.

“We didn’t come here to catch slaves. At what age are you going to sell it?”

“Then let’s play with it for a long time. Why don’t you fight the orcs and release them if you win?”

“Why is there an order, so let’s enjoy ourselves.”

Seeing him giggle, it seems that he hasn’t done it once or twice.

Thinking of fighting an orc without giving a weapon to an ordinary passer-by, I was already looking forward to the future.

But the man shook his head again.

“Stop talking nonsense and prepare to pack your things. go back.”

“Not fun.”

When the bandits approached with a clicking sound.

A low voice came from behind.

“Then no. Did you tell them to kill all the passers-by?”

White hair close to silver.

His face was covered by a similar mask, but he looked quite young from his voice.

As soon as the bandits saw him, they were terrified and immediately fell flat on the ground.

“Oh you are here!”

“Seongja-nim…”

Those who were messing with me just a moment ago can’t even open their mouths properly.

Dark Young frowned.

‘saint?’

Leather armor peeks through the ivory-colored robe he wears.

There was a glimpse of the seal that meant the holy kingdom.

The sword hanging from his waist was also quite similar to the sword carried by his master in that it had a magical color.

A young man called a saint went to the side of the bandit leader and immediately pushed him away.

It was only a light touch, but the bandit flew two meters straight.

coo-!

“Is it because I am a bandit with no roots? Are you disappointed that you can’t even carry out such an easy order?”

“Keueueuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu did, did you? How much do you have to bully us to clear your mind!”

The bandit appealed to the saint to stop harassing him.

How is the situation going?

“So this is all the will of the great Goddess Gaia, right? If you do not comply, I will judge you myself.”

Even after he said it himself, he stroked my face, perhaps obsessed with what he said.

‘Ah, judge. What a nice resonance.’ I mumbled over and over again that the young soldier, who had not yet grasped the situation properly, trembled and stood up.

“You wicked bastards! Throw away your weapons if you don’t want to be dragged into prison right away!”

“weapon?”

The self-proclaimed saint responded.

“If it’s a weapon, you mean something like this?”

He takes out his sword and throws it on the floor.

Chaeng-Grang-!

When he was empty-handed, the soldier seemed relieved.

“good. Come right here.”

“Yes, yes. I will do as our soldier says.”

Shaking his hands, he walked as if he was about to be caught, but Heukyoung felt a sense of danger at the movement.

Pii-!

Caan-!

He struck out the memorized words of the saint with his sword sheath and glared at him fiercely.

“What is this?”

“Wow, did you stop that? great? what is your identity?”

“It’s a merchant.”

“Hahaha, are you asking me to believe that?”

Mouth was smiling, but it seemed he didn’t like the fact that my attack was blocked.

He kicked the sword that had fallen on the ground and held it in his hand, aiming at the black spirit and said.

“It was a rough throw, but it wasn’t something that could be blocked by some idiot. Who are you?”

“That is what I will ask. Who are you?”

“Are you the type with strong power but bad brains? You said I was a saint. A half-god of Gaia, the representative of God.”

“What a boring joke.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Dark Young smiled coldly.

As he quietly placed his hand on the scabbard, the air around him seemed to become hundreds of swords aiming at them.

A chill like a knife in the throat.

Not only the bandits, but even the one who called him a saint erased his laughter.

“My mercy is only given once. If insults come out of your mouth again, I will tear it myself.”

Black Young opened his mouth.

“Tell me who you are.”

Midnight in the woods.

Ray, who was camping with a bonfire at the entrance of the village, touched the bishop priest lying next to him with a blanket over him.

“Are you still stuck? Are you sorry?”

“joy.”

“Oh really. A person may make a mistake while concentrating on magic.”

“A mistake?”

The bishop priest jumped up.

oh i’m surprised

“Is it a mistake to drop it in the middle of a crowd of monsters? Do you know how surprised I was then? There was a reason the royal castle asked me to follow me from the beginning, right? You’ll need a useful decoy to ignore and pass the monsters as you planned.”

‘How many moves did you look ahead?’

After she finished speaking, she rolled over again.

Ray let out a small sigh.

The time when I was holding a horse with magic and running.

In an instant, the scratching of the itchy nose let go of the arm that was holding the bishop.

At the time, she experienced a high-altitude fall from a height of 20 meters, and was looking at herself with eyes like a cow being led to a slaughterhouse.

It was a bit funny, so I smiled without knowing it, but it seems that it became a trauma.

Ray poked the blanket with a twig.

“sorry.”

Tuk-tuk-

“Oh well, I’m sorry.”

“I don’t know!”

Shouting a rock singer screams loudly with vocalizations.

Because of the last incident, the horses are afraid of themselves and do not even want to come near, so now they are truly alone.
