I Returned as an FFF-Class Witch Doctor - Chapter 229
Episode 229
“What are these bastards with no blood on their heads?”
“Oh, Jinman. stop it.”
As a group of people approached them, Yeong-cheol blocked Jin-man with his arm.
The momentum that had just rolled up their sleeves and tried to fight was nowhere to be found.
That would also be the case with the number of groups approaching from the other side of the square, and the Ruwella Royal Castle guards are also familiar enough to pass by with just one glance.
Moreover, the rust-tinged insignia on their chests revealed their identities so clearly that there was no need to even try to find out their identities.
Like the first clan.
They were the prostitutes of small and medium-sized blood alliances who had already been pushed out of the top 1000 and were said to be incomparable to fame.
“Oh, is that what you’re telling us to hear?”
“Of course not then. I can’t hear you anymore because I’m old.”
“Such dog-fucked bastards—.”
After-after after-after!
Jinman raised one eyebrow and wrinkled his face violently, and one of the group scratched the tip of his nose and sighed.
It was a bonus to put on a funny face and act foolishly.
He looked as if he knew Jinman’s reaction in advance, or that he was well aware that he was rejected by the partners (?) Youngchul and Jinman trusted.
It was no exaggeration to say that there were no users who did not know the faces of Yeong-chul and Jin-man in Luwella, no matter how much they believed in the number of dozens of people and acted forcefully.
It was said that it was not something that blood members belonging to a blood alliance that had been pushed out of the top 1000 could afford.
The reputation and name value of the Chunsam Steel Crew, to which Yeong-cheol and Jin-man belong, was not limited to this city alone, and unlike the beginning of a setting sun, Iron Guard was like a gradually rising sun.
Although now they are almost completely ostracized in the city due to external circumstances and certain things, that does not mean that they have yet completely disintegrated and collapsed.
It was said that there was a potential that would not collapse in vain like this.
By the way
. If you want to be treated well, you have to have that kind of dignity to treat you. Aren’t you?”
“Ah haha, that’s really funny.”
“Looks like you’ve reddened your face haha~ It’s like I’m pissed off. Kick kick.”
Just like the first time, blood members were mocking Jin-man’s reddened face, while openly arguing as if they didn’t care that their background was Iron Guard.
It was as if he was not envious of the major bloodline here, so he was walking around as if the castle of Ruwella was his own home.
‘Something’s wrong. This is…’
Youngchul narrowed his eyes as blood members gathered around him like the first time.
It was literally.
After all support for the Iron Guard was cut off and Ruwella’s sudden shift in attitude.
Now that all attempts to get out of the castle have failed, Chunsam tried to overcome this difficulty by releasing his blood members.
Needless to say, it was to confirm the route to escape to the outside and to request aid from outside forces.
It was a foregone conclusion that Count Kocht had made a move.
Otherwise, all the organizations in the castle would not be hostile to the Iron Guard, and there would be no way to temporarily shut down the Adventurer’s Guild that was friendly to adventurers.
In addition, the fact that Ruwella’s numerous eyes and ears had been watching the Iron Guard in the meantime was no different from Count Kocht’s one-sided destruction of the relationship and the Iron Guard’s dynamics in her hands.
In a word, it was to see how it was done.
Willingness to rip open its jaws and swallow it as soon as it staggers or shows signs of weakness.
But now, in the middle of Luwella, a ruined blood alliance outside the 1000th rank is running wild…
“Where are you bastards with X arms X, don’t you guys even have a funeral record?”
“Jinman!!!”
“I decided to soak it anyway, but what kind of a day or two is it to take bastards whose heads aren’t even bloody and drive them in? Is it because you don’t know that it’s an old-fashioned method used by gangsters in 28 years? huh? Youngchul?”
slap!
And Yeong-cheol could easily feel that his friend of 40 years had already crossed the river he shouldn’t have crossed, seeing Jin-man’s expression as he turned his head toward him.
If Ironguard and Ruwella were maintaining a good relationship as usual, Jinman would have laughed and passed it on, but as he said, if everyone was aiming at them, this situation would also be understandable.
“Hey~ Is this why old ginger is said to be spicy? Maybe it’s because he’s hot-tempered, but his head seems to be working fine.”
“But what? It was too late.”
“There is a time for everything. By the time I put my head into the lion’s jaws, it was already too late.”
“That’s why you shouldn’t have bent that upright head a long time ago. If that was the case, I wouldn’t be able to live comfortably without anything happening by now.”
As Jin-man widened his eyes and showed a fierce spirit, one of the blood members sat on top of the fountain and threw a stone, just like the first time.
It was as if he had taken drugs, not even looking at Jinman and Youngchul.
However, unlike such a light gesture, the words that come out of his mouth are by no means easy to pass.
And Young-chul soon instinctively sensed who the bastard they believed was, while suddenly noticing that the fountain in Ruwella Square was empty in an instant, as if the tide was falling.
“I’m not on your side. You less-than-fallen old friends.”
Fondant!
At the same time, a stone that had left its trajectory sank beneath the surface of the fountain.
“It’s great. I’m kicking up my calf to say I’ll be beaten on my own, but can you stay still?”
Crunches! Clap!
Just like the first time, as the blood members closed the distance, Jinman put his hand on his left forearm.
It was a bonus that the dull iron voice resonated.
At first glance, the sound of an engine so fierce that it seemed like a mechanical arm resonated in the square, and as a result, his arm rips his shirt and quickly transforms to the shoulder blades.
Soon, like the first time, the blood members could see Yeong-cheol standing behind him shaking his head and turning his wrists alternately as if warming up.
“…it can’t be helped. Let’s solve the immediate problem first and talk about it later.”
“It should be.”
Woo woo woo woo!
It wasn’t long before the light source of all natural colors began to glow in rainbow colors from his body.
“Come on. I will teach you what respect for elders is.”
“Then really look for it, mister.”
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Soon, green-colored adventurers covered the air.
* * *
Again! again!
King Arthur passed through a chandelier-lined corridor. The sunlight pouring in through the long rows of arched windows was perfect for peace.
Passing through a quiet corridor with only one lady-in-waiting passing by and entering the rectangular, open Daejeon, it was as if she had come out of a walk.
However, the fact that the great battle unfolding in front of him was an audience room for the lord of Ruwella was so clear that even a person who did not know the structure of Ruwella Castle could understand it at a glance.
That would also be true because there were dozens of knights in full plate mail lined up on both sides of the Great War, and two or three tiers of high power were located at the end.
“Welcome, head of the Emperor Blood Pledge.”
“My name is King Arthur, Count Kocht. It is an honor to meet you.”
When the man on the throne hung his chin and let go of the rhyme, King Arthur briefly bowed.
It was a light, unrepentant smile, regardless of the suffocating air.
The Great War he was standing in exuded a strong sense of pressure that would make any level of adventurer collapse at once, but he looked carefree as if he were standing in a different world.
And the etiquette he showed was of a kind that was very far from that of an aristocrat, and it could be said that if he was a continentaler, he would have been rude even if he bowed at once.
“You dare to be an adventurer to the lord—”
“stop. The decision is mine, Lord Locke.”
“…”
If Count Kocht hadn’t frowned and waved his hand, it wouldn’t have been strange at all if the sword of the man right below the seat of power had been pulled out.
“This is the first time I see you. In the meantime, a man called Dildangt has been looking for me. At least once, I thought it was time to come.”
“Even so, I sent you a message that I would visit you once. Hospitality is weak for that kind of thing.”
“Well, we don’t care about each other, so let’s clean it up. Just as I don’t condemn your rudeness, I don’t feel the need to show hospitality either.”
“great. I tend to hate things that are cumbersome.”
When Count Kocht replied, King Arthur put the hood behind his back. Beneath his brown hair, his cool features were directed toward the seat of power.
At first glance, he seems to be grinning, but the narrow eyes drawn with arc lines seem more expressionless than smiling.
And Count Kocht was able to intuit from King Arthur’s words that the adventurer in front of him was the type of person who was more audacious than he looked.
“Why did you do that?”
“…hmm? what?”
“I understand that you condoned the actions of the adventurers guild. Isn’t the content different from the contract we signed?”
smile!
It wasn’t hard to see that the tiny smile had quite a few meanings.
“It’s an adventurer’s guild… Well, I’m not sure what you’re talking about. Isn’t Ruwella doing very well in her contract with you? I think I’m very tolerant of everything that goes on in my front yard. What more can I do with the yard that gave me the key to the front door…”
“You left the window open, didn’t you? It is negligence to say that the stray cat climbed over the fence and entered the house, but did not do anything to stop it. The one who is also the owner of the house.”
“Haha, you seem to be misunderstanding something. Sir King Arthur.”
When King Arthur asked, Kocht removed his jaw.
It was an interesting look, as if he had seen something interesting.
Count Cocht, with his head down, his fingers together, his nose on his index finger, and his eyes shining.
“What was the content of the contract in the first place? Wasn’t it to prevent the Iron Guard from leaving Ruwella Castle and to sever all ties and aid to him? The Emperor’s commander-in-chief promised me a week. You said that if you entrusted all the authority inside and outside the castle, I would have nothing to do with it. In fact, the anti-magic field that was spread with the city’s guardian magic stone is still valid. Isn’t it?”
“….”
“Ruwella sacrificed quite a bit. Hasn’t the story changed a lot from when he said that he would be able to obtain more than twice the benefits than now, saying that he would be able to obtain Iron Guard itself, not coexistence with Iron Guard? You guys couldn’t bring the Iron Guard to its knees, and now my planting is reaching its limit. It was not me who failed to keep the contract, but you, Sir King Arthur.”
And soon, as if Count Kocht was satisfied, he straightened his lower body and leaned back on the seat of power.
At the same time, it was a bonus that the corners of the mouth that went up went back to their proper place.
“ah. It really annoys me.”
Dduduk!
Before long, King Arthur’s head tilted.
