Revenge of the Iron-Blooded Sword Hound - Chapter 450

Episode 450 War Declaration (1)

A certain shady underground space.

Except for the intermittent sound of water dripping from the ceiling and crashing on the stone floor, it is extremely quiet.

at that time. The loud sound of footsteps broke the silence.

“Heo-eok! Hee-kee! Koe-heok!”

A young man was running down the aisle with a distorted expression on his face.

There were large handcuffs and shackles all over her skinny limbs.

Suskind de Leviathan. The eldest son of the extremely poisonous Leviathan family.

He hid himself close to the bottom corner of the basement stairs.

Before long, I saw several soldiers with spears patrolling the stairs.

“…How did this happen?”

Suskind scratched his head and blamed himself.

As the head of the Leviathan family, he was suddenly arrested one day without knowing why and imprisoned in an underground facility inside the family.

As Suskind was the next head of the family to lead the extreme poison family, he knew what the facility was like.

It was a prison that imprisoned those who were out of control among those who inherited the blood of Leviathan, the first dangerous element to be excluded from the family, and at the same time, it was also a laboratory where all kinds of terrible human experiments were conducted.

“It came to this while trying to find out the connection between Thomas’ involvement in the Mine incident and Principal Winston’s runaway incident at the academy… It must have something to do with our family.”

A demonic plant called Naraksu grew at the Colosseo Academy due to Principal Winston’s rampage, and Thomas, who attended as an escort of the night hound, became a demonized figure.

And seeing that this series of events were subtly buried by the first prince, Suskind constantly pointed out the absurdity of reality.

Common sense meant that the Leviathan family should not side with the first prince in this situation.

……However, the cost of that common sense was heavy.

Before he could even open his eyes in bed, Suskind was overpowered and thrown into the dungeon here. And there, I was able to meet many family members.

All of them were anti-war figures.

It was only then that Suskind was able to accurately grasp the current situation.

Something unknown and terrifying had completely consumed Leviathan, and now there was no going back.

…Tatak!

Suskind took advantage of the disappearance of the sentries patrolling and ran through the darkness.

In the meantime, he was able to withstand all kinds of cruel experiments in prison because he was the owner of strong mental power and body.

Although Suskind was an arrogant human being with a sense of choice and privilege, he was an elite who did not neglect training.

Eventually, Suskind ran up the stairs and found a secret door hidden in a secret place.

The only people who know this place are Gaju and Sogaju.

Suskind pushed on the door with a glimmer of hope.

Slowly,

the heavy bricks moved, opening a passage to a deeper place below.

Sensing the presence of a sentry approaching from behind, Suskind hurriedly closed the door and went down into an underground space full of darkness.

‘It’s not like there’s a separate way to the outside from this inside… but at least there’s a space where you can rest your body for a while. I have to heal here and recover the body damaged in the human experiment before escaping.’

Suskind went down the secret stairs thinking about this and that.

But soon he witnessed a terrifying sight.

A dark subterranean alcove.

There were countless jars on the floor there.

And from the jars, just looking at them gives off goosebumps.

A jar that exudes energy as if a red evil spirit were dancing.

Suskind immediately recognized what it was.

“……Red Death!”

How can I not know?

Until a few years ago, it was a terrible plague that the whole family was attached to and focused on developing.

At first, it simply caused a fever and was contagious, but later it made people go wild and further attack others indiscriminately.

“I can’t believe it! Wasn’t the Red Death abandoned because of the incident caused by that madman?”

Suskind looked at the jars in disbelief.

Each of the large jars contained a single person.

The sight of a man and a woman soaked in red medicine curled up like a fetus and staring up at them from inside a jar was truly spooky.

The gazes they sent towards Suskind were all the same.

‘Porridge… woman… give me…’

The maid who cleaned the room every day The old man who managed the garden The chef who made delicious desserts The butler who was always strict and strict The instructor who taught me martial arts when I was young Collateral relatives and younger siblings whom we only met on holidays, distant adults of maternal relatives who often greeted each other… These

are faces everyone knows in the jar.

Suskind passed between the pots with his wobbly legs.

Soon after, I saw a huge pot in the innermost part.

Hiss- hiss-

Two breathing sounds can be heard from inside the half-buried jar.

In the jar Suskind looked down at, there were two large snakes entangled in each other.

Every time they exhale, red demons dancing in the air rise up into the air.

“…Are these the sources of the red death?”

Suskind broke out in a cold sweat.

at that time.

Shih-

The two snakes looked up at Suskind and began to breathe heavily.

When Suskind is startled and is about to step back.

[Isn’t it a good smell whenever you smell it?]

A gloomy voice came from behind.

Surprised, Suskind turned his head to see a man wearing a black robe standing there.

Suskind recognized his identity right away.

“……Ah father.”

Hobbes de Leviathan. The head of the extreme poison family.

He looked at his eldest son, Suskind, and smiled softly.

[I am not your father, Suskind. It’s just a devil who ate your father and took his shell.]

Suskind’s complexion turned pale at the rare honest answer.

I guessed it to some extent, but I never thought I’d reveal my identity so openly.

Suskind gritted his teeth and asked.

“What did you do with the youngest?”

[That guy has already become like the second son, Thomas.]

“Don’t say nonsense! Thomas has a bad personality, so we can’t help it, but he’s not the youngest! He’s such a kind and naive guy that we can’t even think of him as our brother. You will never become a demon…!?”

However, Suskind’s words did not lead to the end.

Chew!

The two snakes jumped out of the jar behind them, biting Suskind’s neck and waist and dragging him into the jar.

Suskind couldn’t even scream and fell under the jar.

[Ah ah- I kept that guy alive because I was going to change his body.]

Hobbs. He sighed when he confirmed that Suskind’s body had fallen into the jar and was bent in strange directions.

[It’s a shame to make it poisonous, but it can’t be helped. If it’s a body to change, there’s still one more left…]

The red demons that wandered around in the jar danced and crawled into Suskind’s body.

The two eyes of Suskind, which had been turned in different directions, began to turn red, and red spots began to form all over the body.

Right then.

“Is everything going well this time?”

Another voice came from above the basement stairs.

A man covered in a black robe was looking down at Hobbs.

Hobbs replied with a grin.

[This is the first time. What’s going on?]

[I came because I had something to discuss about the civil war. Now is the time to discuss the issue of succession to the throne.]

[There are still many eyes to see. If you have something to discuss, send an owl.]

[It’s okay sometimes. I don’t know how long it’s been since we’ve had a face-to-face conversation like this.]

[Now, it’s just you and me.]

[That’s right. Because of the goddamn demon hunter.]

Hobbs No, this time and No. 1, who covered his face with a black robe, started talking about this and that.

[Looks like it happened three times. Traces of forcibly trying to open the ‘door of destruction’ before my life was cut short remained in my magic route

. He seems like a pathetic guy.]

[It’s nothing to laugh at. Even if we are single people without a sense of fellowship, this is a big problem.]

[Haha. The purpose of opening the door is the same for each other.]

[Yes. All of the feverish comrades died, and now only you and me are left. Now is the time to negotiate.]

Hobbs nodded.

[If it’s a civil war problem, don’t worry. Large-scale German manufacturing will soon be over. If only these guys are completed, the war will be a piece of cake.]

[In the past, the one who said that he was dirty was the first poisoner, right?]

[Huh! He was a failure. It was somewhat successful in strengthening the body and making the personality violent, but it lacked the most important contagious power. The ones now maturing in jars are improved versions. These are the real ones.]

After speaking, Hobbs turned his head.

It was in the direction of the two snakes that had just poisoned Suskind.

[The essence of my magical power is shaped into a monster. Poison’s Hwasui ‘Ouroboros’ is an artifact that creates endless poison while biting each other’s tails. As long as there is this, the Germans can create as much as they like.]

[That’s good. It will be of great help in the war.]

[Of course. It’s a madman raid that spreads contagious disease all over the body. It has tremendous tactical value.]

Then the man who had been listening to Hobbs until now opened his mouth and asked.

[Then, why don’t you try wiping out the ‘night walkers’ who are in Tochka Fortress by now?]

[Huh? What are they?]

[The demon hunter who recently killed number three and number four in a row is building a nest there. And for some reason, many refugees seem to be heading there.]

[Hmm…… It’s a high and solid place, but there’s no drinking water, so it’s not suitable for a hideout, right? Even more so if you want to accept refugees.]

[But they’re doing it that way. They seem to be preparing for a sit-in while buying a large amount of food and drinking water.]

[Hahahaha! That’s stupid! There is no water source there. As long as I release the poisons, they will just stand up and die.]

Hobbs laughed, showing his teeth.

He gestured into the air once, and an army of Germans lined up behind him with red spots all over his body.

[Other colleagues waited patiently for the demon hunter’s attack, but I wasn’t. As long as you know their location, wouldn’t it be enough to attack first?]

[Be careful. There are many refugees there. Demon hunters are heartless, so they might be used as shields.]

[The human shield strategy doesn’t work for me. The more mischievous people there are, the better. It’s enough to infect everyone and make them poisonous.]

Then, the man in the black robe also smiled contentedly.

[Surely, for demon hunters who have a lot to protect, a type like you is like a natural enemy.]

[Nothing.]

Hobbs continued with a gentle smile.

[All the Germans are conscripted. And I will leave right away at this time in a month. Go and decapitate the night hound or something. …… No, would it be better to make them alone? Even his limbs, all of them.]

[Reliable. by the way. Can I ask you one favor?]

[Ask? are you to me What is it?]

[……Killing a man.]

The man put down a piece of paper with a face drawn on it in front of Hobbs.

[If alive, it would look like this by now.]

[……? What is this? He looks like an insignificant guy?]

[I think so too. I’m asking just in case.]

Hobbs tilted his head, but he had no choice but to nod.

First poem (一番尸). Also known as ‘The Marquis of Discord’.

It was because it was the first time in my life that the high-ranking and arrogant being in front of me asked in such a low-key way.
