EPISODE.69

“What are you doing here tonight?”

It was too late to say goodbye before leaving. Besides, it didn’t even have to be now.

‘It was around noon tomorrow when I decided to leave…’

It wouldn’t have been a problem if we said hello in the morning.

“just. I have something I want to tell you…”

Muyaho, who muttered that, suddenly shouted in a huff.

“You mean you can’t drink the alcohol this body gives you? cock?”

“It can’t be.”

When Russell grinned, Muyaho lightly tossed the vial he was holding in his hand.

challang challang.

The sound of the sake flowing in a parabolic bottle resonated lightly in my ears.

As soon as he accepted it, Muyaho took out another gourd.

It was a small gourd about the size of a palm, unlike the large gourds that were drunk at festivals before.

pong-.

As soon as I opened the bottle, the strong fragrance started to fill the room.

After taking a sip of alcohol, Muyaho started off with a trivial story.

The thoughts I had while fighting Russell, and this and that.

“It was pretty fun when you think about it. No matter how warm-up it may be, there was not a single guy on the island who would fight with me every morning.”

“I want you to be considerate of people who collapse from exhaustion every time you warm up.”

“It’s terrifying.”

As Russell muttered, Muyaho giggled and patted him on the back.

How long will it take to continue talking about this and that?

Muyaho opened his mouth when Russell had emptied half of his share of alcohol.

“Actually, male. I asked you to talk like this because I have a favor to ask of you.”

“Please?”

With an uncharacteristic serious face, Russell put down the vial he was holding.

Muyaho nodded.

“okay. I’ve been thinking about it for a while…”

“…?”

What are you trying to say?

“Even if the beastmen go out of the island, there is no country that deserves to accept them.”

As I’ve explained before, no country would welcome this number of beastmen if they suddenly appeared and established a nation.

Unfortunately, the same was true of Russell’s birthplace, Endymion.

“So, male. I hope you can act as a bridge.”

“When it comes to legs, what exactly are you talking about? If you’re asking me to take away Endymion’s territory, no matter how much I do…” ”

Ah? Do you think this body would make such a shameless request? cock?”

Muyaho interrupted Russell’s words.

“They just want us to give them a small piece of land where we can live.”

Isn’t that what it is?

As soon as that thought came to mind, a thought quickly passed through Russell’s mind.

“Could it be Muyaho…?”

“ah? huh. okay. That’s it. So… our Beasts are male. I am saying that I will enter the country where you are.”

As if his thoughts were revealed in his expression, Muyaho replied and smacked his mouth.

“They say there is such a thing as a territory in their world, but they want us beastmen to have a territory where they can live. It may be a little cumbersome and annoying, but I’m ready to bow my head to your king if need be.”

It is said that he is quite rugged and has a reckless side, but the muyaho that Russell saw was very proud of himself.

However, he was saying that it did not matter if such a person received the noble rank of Endymion, albeit formally.

It was not even worth considering how much thought and thought went into making this decision.

“Of course, we have no intention of asking to do something like that for free.”

Saying that, Muyaho quenched his thirst with alcohol.

“We, the Beast Race, are a race that knows grace well. What is it, a territorial dispute? War? If that happens, it means that we can lend a hand too.”

In return for giving them a territory to live in, if they could gather the beast tribes as troops, it would be a very profitable business for Endymion no matter how he looked at it.

What’s more, the beast king Muyahoim is the one who leads the beast people.

‘The problem is not Endymion, but the Beasts.’

That’s why I asked.

“Are you okay?”

“huh? What do you mean?”

“Isn’t Muyaho the king of the Beasts? It must not have been an easy decision for the Beast King to become a noble of another country.”

“Ummm.”

At Russell’s question, Muyaho rolled his eyes with an ambiguous face.

“I think I’ve briefly explained it before, but the position of a beast king is far from the kind of king people think.”

“…?”

“Rather than a king, should I say that he should be regarded as the leader of a group?”

He seemed to think that his explanation was insufficient, and he added with a shy expression.

“It’s not like we’re no longer a beast tribe just because we’re under the kingdom…” ”

If a king or ruler reigns and reigns, does the position of beast king represent the clan or something like that?”

“Ugh. roughly the same You’re right. Are you smart?”

surely.

It is quite a different concept from the king or monarch that humans think of. Rather, a structure a little more like the head of a pack of beasts.

When I thought about it, it became easier to understand.

‘Because they’re a beast.’

Now, the remaining question was why he asked himself for it.

Of course, Muyaho and the Beasts are also coveted forces in any country.

If he had made the same decision as now, there were plenty of countries that would accept him even if he wasn’t Endymion.

Muyaho answered that question.

“Well, that might be the case… but, after all, the humans who know us well are males. Aren’t there any other than you? So you can do a better job as a bridge. I can’t help it if it’s burdensome…”

“No.”

Russell shook his head.

After all, he was the count of Endymion and his reserve sire.

I had never wielded or used power in particular, but the suggestion seemed possible enough.

“I can’t say for sure, but I’ll try to get the word out.”

As he muttered, Muyaho rubbed his chin.

“yes. I will deliver the answer through the merchants who come and go here… Then when will we leave the island?”

“well? Considering this and that, wouldn’t it take about two to three years?”

After muttering that, Muyaho raised his three hundred eyes sharply.

“Come to think of it, if there’s nothing special about the male, it makes sense that we’ll see you again in the next two or three years.”

Then he looked over Russell’s body and said.

“It’s not a very long time, but try hard. At that time, I want you to enjoy the lilies.”

It seems like I’m already looking forward to that time.

Russell only complained about Muyaho’s fighting spirit.

* * *

Maybe it’s because I’ve made quite a few acquaintances with the beasts of Fenrir over the past 40 days.

Otherwise, it might be because he was the benefactor who found the ‘Wolryeokseok’.

The number of beastmen who came out to see off Russell was quite large.

Muyaho, whom we talked about last night, was no exception.

“Take this. cock.”

The front gate of Fenrir made of wooden fences.

Muyaho handed something to Russell at the head of the beastmen who had gathered to fill the crowd.

“This…?”

It was a necklace made of the fangs of an unknown beast that looked quite sharp.

When Russell handed it over, Muyaho turned his lips up.

He showed the empty fang seat and said.

“Hehe, I’m all over the place with my Hongjokni. Hehe.”

“yes…?”

“It’s made from my fangs.”

When he lowered his pursed lips, his voice returned to normal.

“It’s not like you have any special powers, and if you have it, the other beastmen won’t quarrel with you while you’re on your way back. Other than that, you can think of taking a special souvenir.”

Russell asked back, thinking of Muyaho’s canine seat, which was thankful for his thoughtfulness, but was somehow empty.

“Can I just pull out my teeth like this?”

Muyaho shrugged.

“How are you? If you wait a little bit, it will fly again.”

Unlike humans, who do not grow teeth again once their permanent teeth fall out, the Beast Tribe seem to grow them again and again even if they pull them out.

‘That’s fortunate.’

After confirming that Russell was putting on the necklace, Muyaho punched him on the shoulder.

“Then let’s go. cock. Don’t forget what you talked about with me.”

“I will also look forward to seeing Muyaho and the Beasts again.”

Leaving behind the greetings of the hand-waving beastmen, Russell quickly ran through the jungles of the Kuril Islands.

Pababababat-!

The speed was so fast that it was incomparable to the first time I went inside.

It has to be.

At first, it was because he entered through a battle with several beast tribes to make his name known.

Besides, it might be because of the tooth necklace that Muyaho gave me. There were no prisoners who came to fight.

Parbat-!

Russell, who got out of the jungle in an instant, was able to get on a merchant ship going out of the island without difficulty.

Some time has passed since then.

Woo woo woo.

As he exited the warp gate of the salt tower, Russell adjusted the collar of his robe.

I could feel the cool breeze blowing through the open window.

‘Is it really worth it?’

Including the two months I spent in the Kuril Islands, the time taken to and from the Kuril Islands is about four months.

‘It’s the point at which I skipped a whole season.’

I didn’t know it when I was in the warm southern island, but when I returned to the capital, I felt that winter was fast approaching.

Thinking that you’ve been away from the royal road for quite some time, Russell moved toward the main room at the top of the Magic Tower.

It would have been reported that he had returned from the moment he used the first warp gate at the kingdom’s border.

Nevertheless, it was polite to greet the teacher face to face.

Woo woo ding-.

Upon arriving at the top floor on a floating seat, the door to the main room opens as if it had been waiting for it.

rattle-.

Along with that, the scent of black tea comes out with the sweet smell unique to Daria’s office.

‘Looks like you’re enjoying tea time again…’

Russell, who was about to step into the office, hesitated.

“…You’re here. dear.”

It was because she met someone completely unexpected in Daria’s office.

A woman dressed more like a knight than a princess, with intelligent purple eyes and long hair of the same color.

Endymion’s first heir to the throne and his fiancee.

Hecate Latmos was staring at him with an impassive expression.

Daria’s voice followed with a friendly laugh.

“The heartless youngest who never gave a message after going out has finally returned.”

His voice was full of playfulness, as if he didn’t know what to do because the current situation was interesting.

The word ‘heartless’ stuck in my heart.

‘Ugh.’
