Infinite Mage - Chapter 1220
The last five hours (4)
the vicious merchant asked.
“What are you? “Are you going to try it?”
“of course. “I’d rather go to jail than give points to scum like you.”
They were absurd.
“Son, I don’t think you know, but do you know what happens when you go to prison?”
Although I couldn’t hear it clearly, I was able to guess it just by looking at Curtis’ condition.
Nade smiled.
“Good. I was curious what kind of place it was. Are you not confident? Then stop fussing and get out.”
“ha.”
The eyes of the vicious merchants changed.
“It’s easy because you treat me well, right? Shall I tell you one more thing? Even if you turn into dog hair, we can attack you. The higher your points, the more brutal crimes you can commit. “I’ll leave it to your imagination to see how far we can go.”
“try. “If you are confident.”
When Nade raised his right hand and unleashed an electric shock, the vicious merchants flinched.
“Demon wizard?”
“okay. In reality, these are things that are not even a fist away. “Do you understand the situation now?”
They were dazed for a moment and then burst into laughter.
“Hahaha! This was a total beginner, right? Do you know where this is? “It’s Melkidu, man.”
“so?”
Attacks between users are impossible.
“No, it’s okay.”
The leader raised his hand and stepped forward.
“Okay, I admit it. We also make sure to treat our customers well. Let’s do it this way. Ten million points. “That’s it.”
Of course, the intention was different.
‘A wizard?’
The one who sent him to Jangcheon Prison day and night in reality.
‘no wonder. I was thinking about teleporting away. But you met the right person today.’
The distance narrowed a little further.
“Okay, I lost. Then, cut it off from 10 million more…
After letting his guard down like that, he suddenly twisted his body and swung his long sword sharply.
Nade’s bangs were cut by a sharp blade, with his upper body tilted back, and a few strands flew out.
“Hahaha! done! You are now broke…
-Warning. System hostile activity detected. The Guard pursues Brica’s team.
Even after hearing the message delivered to all of the accomplices, they did not understand the situation.
“what? what is this sound?”
The next moment, armored guards from all sides of the capital began to flock this way.
“uh? uh?”
Even as my mind was spinning, I was convinced that I shouldn’t be here.
“hey! “Bounce!”
However, the road was already blocked and the guards brutally arrested them.
“Let go! Ouch! “Let go, you bastard!”
For about a minute, Brica’s team had to lie down on the floor with their backs handcuffed.
“Damn it! Are you guys crazy? We have never been against the system! “It was an attack on the user!”
Instead of answering, the guard saluted Nade.
“Loyalty! “All seven criminals were arrested.”
“Um, okay.”
When Nade turned his back and nodded, the expressions on the Brica team’s faces changed to bewilderment.
“……uh?”
Brika shouted.
“What on earth have you done? How are you a security guard? “You’re a user!”
“That’s why I told you, if you’re not confident, turn it off.”
“You bastard!”
Brica’s eyes were bloodshot, but her heart sank at the cold feel of the handcuffs.
‘no. If things continue like this, I’m really going to jail.’
They did not have the strength to remove the handcuffs or defeat the guards.
“sorry.”
Brika pleaded.
“We were wrong. So just take a look, okay? “I will do whatever you ask me to do.”
“This is Melkidu.”
Nade said with a smile.
“Whatever you do with the points. “That’s all?”
As I said that and turned to my friends, the guard leader came up and asked.
“What will they do?”
Nade waved his index finger with a prickly expression.
“Arrest him immediately!”
“yes!”
The vicious merchants who were dragged away screamed.
“Let go! You son of a bitch! What crime have I committed? you! “You are making a big mistake!”
Only Curtis, who had already experienced prison, looked at them with pity.
“How are my skills?”
Eden said as Nade made a V with his hands.
“You… seem like you’re secretly enjoying it?”
“What do you think? It ends today anyway. “Those who trust the point and install it need to be scolded.”
Curtis asked.
“Is that the item you mentioned earlier? “If you have a registration certificate, you can also become a security guard?”
“yes. Let’s get out of here for now. “Let me explain.”
Sirone and his group ordered a late lunch at a high-end restaurant with discount coupons.
“There are so many people.”
It was so booming that the large room was filled.
Curtis was probably the hungriest person, but he was more interested in items.
“Hmm, if you wear this necklace, it will penetrate the physical barrier, right? Then we can go to the inside track too.”
Iruki said.
“But it’s over anyway, right? “It would be exciting to stay longer in Melkidu.”
“…Not really.”
Pena asked.
“But even if we persuade the king, Curtis and I are not accomplices. How do you get into the core?”
Indeed, it was so.
“Parme is a points transaction, so we first persuaded them and then redistributed them…
While the discussion was going on, a group of people leaving the restaurant stopped.
“Curtis?”
Everyone turned their heads at the man’s words.
“where are you?”
“That guy is Curtis, right? Why are you looking like that? “I’m not the kind of guy who gets beaten up anywhere.”
“That’s not the problem. Block the entrance. “Go around the table and grab it from behind.”
Curtis spoke, holding a fork as the group moved with trained movements.
“How about this? You can use this item to enter the castle. We can’t wait until tomorrow and maybe we can find some solution there. “If you can steal a registration card, it means you can also enter and exit the core.”
“Hmm, that’s definitely the only way… At that moment, a shadow appeared on the table and
Curtis instinctively turned his head.
“Curtis!”
The moment he saw the other person, his pupils shook and the man’s fist hit his chin directly.
“Tsk!”
-warning. System hostile activity detected. The Guard pursues the Liber team.
“what? What is this…
Curtis rolled on the floor, overturned the table and rushed towards the exit.
The man guarding the door shouted.
“calm down! It’s all over! Ugh!”
When the security guard opened the door and burst in, the man collapsed and the restaurant was thrown into chaos.
“Don’t miss it! catch!”
Those who had not yet been caught by the guards were pushing Curtis to one side.
“Hey Curtis. It’s me, Liver. “Let’s talk.”
Curtis, who was looking left and right at the gradually narrowing siege, turned towards the wall.
He charged with all his might, covered his face with both arms, and flew straight through the wall.
“uh?”
The guards crushed the people standing there in shock from behind.
“Loyalty! “We arrested 8 criminals.” Nade saluted and approached Ryber.
“Who are you?”
“shut up! Do you know what you just did? “You missed all the suspects.”
“You’re talking nonsense. Mr. Curtis is a detective.”
“We are detectives too.”
You asked Shiro while Nade was speechless.
“If you’re the same detective, why are you chasing me? Mr. Curtis is solving a cold case.”
“You mean Edrina?”
Ryber said with a frown.
“The prime suspect in that case is Curtis. “He is a murder suspect who murdered four 27-year-old women.”
Pena said.
“I don’t trust people. But I have eyes to see. “Curtis may be unlucky, but he’s not a psycho.”
“I know what kind of guy he is. Because you are my colleague and friend. But… I have proof.”
Sirone asked.
“Is it true that among the four is Mr. Curtis’s daughter?”
“okay.”
“How did he die?”
“He hanged himself.”
“Then it’s suicide…
“So it’s an unsolved case. Me and Curtis found Edrina in the basement of the villa. “The rope tied to the ceiling pipeline broke and fell to the floor.”
Nade asked.
“That’s suicide, right?”
“The problem is that you can’t die like that alone. The ceiling height is 4 meters. There was nothing to step on or climb on in the warehouse, and it wasn’t structured so that you could climb up the walls. The iron door had a manual lock and was locked from the inside. Did it fly? No, Edrina was an ordinary person. “He wasn’t a wizard.”
It was truly strange.
“I can only assume that someone hung it. I thought the broken string might be a clue, but in the end I couldn’t find anything special. Actually, it’s not uncommon. “The struggle just before death is truly enormous, so if the tension is weak, it can easily break.”
Ryber continued.
“First of all, there were three other deaths besides her. While we were trying to figure out the murder and track down the culprit, one day a letter arrived addressed to us. “A letter from the dead Edrina.”
“You postponed the reception date.”
“okay. I sent it before I died. It went through the International Postal Service. “I arrived after wandering around the world.”
“What did it say?”
“Just one sentence. “It’s not your fault.” “okay? This is not a cold case. Curtis must know something. But he disappeared before we could figure out the situation. And… I came to Mel Kidu.”
Iruki asked, somewhat aware of the situation.
“What do you want to do, Sirone?”
“Let’s find Mr. Curtis first. will tell us “If you have to go to the core.”
Nade gave instructions.
“Arrest her first. “Don’t send me to jail.”
“yes!”
As the guards took the Liber team out, Sirone and his group also left the restaurant.
Pena looked around.
“Where did it go? “If you use the Quick Recovery Pass necklace, tracking is impossible.”
“are you okay. “There is only one place to go anyway.”
Eden turned his head.
“Royal castle.”
Sirone said.
“I’m sure Mr. Curtis guesses that we will hear the truth from the detective. Since we can’t be together, I’ll try to enter the core alone.”
“Is he really the culprit?”
Sirone did not conclude.
“Let’s go to the royal castle first. The event is
open my day. What I’m saying now is that it could be considered an act of destruction of the system. “You can’t let down your guard just because you have a security registration certificate.”
The party who infiltrated the castle arrived at the Grand Hall using the quick recovery pass necklace and flight magic.
Curtis, who had been captured by the knights, was kneeling.
“Mr. Curtis!”
The King turned his head.
“I can’t believe the laws of the kingdom have collapsed like this. “So, are you also scoundrels threatening the king?”
‘You have to make the most of it.’
Sirone stepped forward.
“I am Sirone. “I came to see you because I wanted to go to Melkidu’s core.”
Because the event had not yet occurred, the King would not have been able to read the recommendation.
“Hmm, Sirone…
But perhaps that was why the king raised the corners of his mouth, showing interest in a different way.
“What has the charity of the age done to the resting place of a murderer?”
“huh?”
“I can’t believe I met Yahweh here. Well, if this is fate, then it must be fate.”
Sirone’s expression turned cold.
“who are you?”
Not a non-player.
“Well, wouldn’t it be better to see it yourself rather than explain it?”
Strange noises overlapped on the king’s face, and his appearance gradually began to change.
The black-haired man was in his 40s, but had a playful and beautiful appearance.
“Nice to meet you, Sirone.”
Sirone’s eyes widened as he realized through Omega.
“Cain.”
Humanity’s first murderer.
