Chapter 785

Episode 785: Stolen Heirloom (7)

Leaving the butcher’s shop, where all the hands have turned mute, Aira sat in the field and pulled out small pieces of meat with her fingers.

Unpleasant moistness.

The subtle persistence made me wonder if it was really okay to eat this.

Ira, who quickly put the meat in her mouth and chewed it, shook her head.

“It’s not worth eating at all.”

People who eat well like this felt strange.

She then shredded the meat and brought it back to her mouth.

Jilggung-

The feeling of touch in the mouth is unpleasant.

The strange fishy smell that wrapped around his tongue frowned.

Still, I didn’t stop eating.

There was no taste.

The smell is terrible and even the texture is sticky, so it doesn’t feel like food.

But there was a strange feeling.

something I haven’t been able to do before.

no.

Being an elf, I didn’t take it for granted.

I felt strangely immoral about doing it proudly.

“I might not be a proper elf than I thought.”

This time, he gulped down a drink made by the dwarves.

As expected of a drink made by noisy tribes, the noise, which did not even feel the static mood, danced like crazy with the fishy smell of meat.

The mouth is a mess as if a war had already broken out.

The stickiness multiplied, and the urge to vomit it right away surged up.

“Kaaa…”

A sound that only savages would make leaked out of my mouth inadvertently.

That moment.

A subtle taste and aroma that is difficult to describe in words came at the same time.

mental turbulent feeling.

But it was never unpleasant.

Is it because of my mood?

The laughter of various races coming from afar stopped bothering me at some point.

As if possessed by something, he chewed the meat and left an aftertaste with alcohol.

By the time I repeated it a couple of times, the discomfort was gone and there was a small sense of fulfillment.

Pleasant grass that tickles the skin.

Just in time, it started to get dark and the sky was dyed with fire.

I drink again while watching the flowing clouds.

Beep-beep-!

perhaps.

The Goblin Queen’s words that you have to be able to see the darkness in order to cut it out may have been what she wanted to convey to her that she couldn’t get rid of the darkness unless she knew what it was.

“Darkness I think.”

There was only one answer.

revenge.

Certainly these are dark feelings.

There is neither a sense of integrity nor a sense of duty to the extent of attracting others and forcing them to make sacrifices.

But is this vengeance really a wrong feeling?

I thought it wasn’t like that.

Even now, that thought persists.

I want to take revenge on those who took away my precious ones.

At that point, I understood the meaning of what the Goblin Queen said.

she said

I mean, don’t confuse the road.

“You talk round and round.”

Ira brushed her windblown hair and brought the drink back to her mouth.

The next day.

All of those who could be called the head of the principality, including the security committee, were suddenly summoned.

Of course, Ray was no exception.

At the call of the Goblin Queen, they gathered in the Great Hall from the morning and looked at her standing on the podium.

Heol-yeong, who has an impatient personality, asked first.

“What’s going on? Did the Black Room even invade?”

Even after saying it himself, he seemed nervous as if he thought there was a possibility.

The queen shook her head.

“no.”

“Then what is the fuss about?”

“The Elves are hoping to participate as troops for this principality.”

“huh?”

“Are you an elf?”

“…are you sure?”

“I heard it directly from the high elves, so that’s certain.”

Participation of the elves in the war.

Also, the fact that a village led by a high elf was involved in a war had a significant impact.

He didn’t know if other elves would join him.

Responding to the word high elf, Ray shook his head.

“He must be seeking revenge.”

“I think it probably is.”

“Have you thought about it?”

“First of all, I have said that the troops will be received, but the command authority will be maintained by the principality.”

coping was good

Soonbok, who had been called Daejeon for the first time in a while, said with a yawn.

-You mean you summoned me just enough to move a few elves?

“It is not something to be taken lightly. Perhaps it could turn the tide of war.”

-That’s funny. I can deal with people like that on my own.

“War is not just armed conflict.”

Soonbok, who had listened to the Goblin Queen’s words with one ear and let them go with the other, tapped the table.

– So what do you want to say?

At those words, the Goblin Queen’s eyes turned to Rey.

“I heard that you accepted some conditions in exchange for relocating the elves.”

“It did.”

“The high elves are looking for a place to live. They were hoping for a land that was wide, lush, and out of reach of other races, which, to put it simply, did not match the principality.”

‘Where do you get that kind of land? Are you sane?’ Leaving her deep-seated glare, Ray replied as if she had thoughts.

“If that’s the case, you don’t have to worry.”

“What do you mean.”

“Soonbok.”

– Speak.

Soon-bok, who had been listening to the story with a rather perverse attitude until just a moment ago, changed into an obedient dog as if he had never done that before.

“You know what I said before? You will have to suffer a little.”

-Did you say that before?

“Among my acquaintances, there is a guy with wide feet in the construction industry, right? Call me back today.”

-It’s good to call, but if you want a non-contracted spirit to work, you need a corresponding price.

“cost?”

-That friend is a high-ranking spirit, so for example, a piece of dragon scale or the heart of a wyvern leader.

The surroundings were astonished to see Soonbok talking indifferently.

“Dragon scales?”

“Heart of the Wyvern leader in charge of the species! Where the hell do you get something like that!”

-It is to summon a higher level spirit. Of course, if you don’t dedicate that much, you won’t be able to move.

Despite So-yeong’s cry of nonsense, Soon-bok only snorted.

After thinking for a moment, Ray asked.

“Sunbok, are you tall? Or is the Wyvern leader high?”

-Are you kidding me? Being compared to that lizard is a shame to me.

“Hoo. You mean that?”

Ray got up from his seat.

Soonbok flinched at the sight of his ominous appearance.

– Why do you do that?

At that, Ray took out a sword from his waist and smiled.

“Then can’t you compromise with roughly four fingers?”

– Don’t do this.

“Heh heh. don’t worry too much I know this because I’ve done it a couple of times.”

Soonbok swallowed in vain at the laughter that seemed to have pulled out the flesh of the evil spirit who came back alive from hell.

– Then, why don’t you make a contract with that spirit too!

“Is that a price or something?”

-yes? That’s right.

‘What are you asking for obvious things?’ Seeing those innocent eyes, Ray shook his head.

“Be patient. It will sting.”

Subok screamed as he pulled his finger.

– It’s enough just to give away a little mana!

“It’s fine.”

Rey, who held her sword, looked at the Goblin Queen.

“The residence issue will probably be resolved within a few days.”

“Then no problem. I will accept the elven troops.”

The Goblin Queen agreed.

The emergency summons issued to the top leaders in the morning was over in less than twenty minutes, despite its name.

* * *

Ray started looking for a site with Soonbok and the receptionist.

It’s too narrow here.

It’s difficult because there is no water here.

After searching 10 places, if all conditions were satisfied at least one place, it was difficult because Young Ji-min was already occupied.

– No matter how barren it is, how can the topography be like this?

Unable to bear it, Subok said a word.

Occasionally, sheer cliffs block the road, and green forests are sparsely visible, like beans sprouting in a drought.

Hongyoung said quietly.

“If you’ve decided to summon a spirit, wouldn’t it matter anywhere?”

“…”

At that, Ray’s steps stopped.

Come to think of it, yes.

Why was he looking for a comfortable working environment for that spirit?

It should be called around the water’s edge and remodeled to suit your taste.

Ray looked at the uniform.

“Is it okay?”

-I do not know. Changing the terrain costs a lot of mana. Wouldn’t it be too much for an older brother?

At his words, Ray made up his mind.

He had never felt a shortage of mana since he created the mana rod.

If it was impossible, I didn’t know, but if mana was a problem, it worked.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Let’s do it here.”

“yes?”

-Is that true?

Not a forest, just three trees.

Even the water stream flowing down from the mountain was embarrassing to call it a stream.

Ray said while making a magic circle to summon the spirits.

“Everything is there. There are no territories, the land is wide and there are streams and forests.”

“…”

With that said, there is nothing else to say.

It was because he was right about what he said.

The dumbfounded Soonbok came to him.

– No, how can you say that there is everything you need after seeing this? see Even the young ants are abandoning their burrows and migrating.

Where he pointed his finger, ants were indeed planning a large-scale migration.

However, to Ray, who had already started listening to only the words he wanted to hear, it was nothing to say.

“It’s nice that the bugs are gone too.”

“I guess so.”

Even the receptionists, who have nothing to say as Hong-yeong is arguing from the side, are the same.

Regardless of what Soonbok said, after completing the magic circle, Ray continued to inject mana into it.

Whoa-!

The magic circle that had resonated loudly emitted a bright light.

Hard-!

The ground shook violently as if an earthquake had occurred.

Soon, a higher-ranking spirit showed off its presence.

The dust rose thickly as if it were about to reach the sky.

– Hoo. It’s the first time I’ve ever seen a middle-earth with such weak power. Who called Jim?

The receptionist was nervous at the voice containing heavy mana.

Let the dust settle gradually.

There, an alluring beauty was gently sitting on a rock.
