Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 482
#482. Are you crazy?

“…Isn’t it too late?”
Backyard with banquet hall.
Limon, who kept his seat with his arms crossed, frowned at the starry night sky.
Of course, since Charlotte had declared that she would finish raiding the dungeon today, she expected it to be later than usual.
But that’s about it too.
Although it was already close to midnight.
In fact, Charlotte showed no signs of returning.
“Hmm, that’s strange.”
If Charlotte hadn’t prepared the banquet, he might have thought it would take time to capture and torture the Liberation Brigade.
But she is the Golden Dragon Princess.
It’s a being that doesn’t know how to say two words with one mouth.
To think that she had prepared a banquet and didn’t come until the food had cooled down.
It was strange in many ways.
“Unless there is something unavoidable, there is no way that boss will break his promise.”
what the hell is going on
While I was lost in thought, tapping my forearm with my fingers.
Limon suddenly frowned.
It was because I felt the presence of people approaching the dorm.
After a while, what appeared was the blonde woman he thought would come.
But it wasn’t the opponent he was waiting for.
Half torn jacket.
Broken and limp arm.
A body full of blood and wounds.
The President of the United States of America, who did not lose his composure like a master of the Golden Dragon clan.
Elise ran to the inn like the wind even though she was a mess and collapsed in front of Limon.
Reflexively supporting her.
Limon asked.
“What happened?”
Why is her face like this?
And, of course, where are Charlotte and the Huanglongdae, who should come together?
A question with many implications.
Alice didn’t answer.
Instead, he only asked in a trembling voice while clutching Limon’s collar.
“Please save the swordsmith princess.”
* * *
After Charlotte entered the 100th floor.
Ellis and the Yellow Dragon were waiting at the entrance for Charlotte to return.
Unfortunately, dungeons are isolated spaces by floor.
I didn’t know what was going on on the 100th floor. At least until then, Ellis wasn’t worried about Charlotte.
Charlotte is the strongest master of the Seven Dragons.
Unlike other princesses, she was a being who could never become dangerous in that she could even become a dragon by herself.
But after a while, the vibration that spread from the 100th floor shook the entire dungeon.
The situation has turned.
Numerous boss monsters suddenly poured out like a flood from the entrance on the 100th floor.
At first, Alice and the Yellow Dragons, who had been fighting against each other, could not cope with the endless wave of monsters and were forced to be pushed out.
Retreating wasn’t easy.
Dungeon floors 90 and above are places where it is difficult for even a skilled master to penetrate.
I wonder if Charlotte was there.
Going through the traps and monsters and returning with them alone was a matter of risking one’s life in itself.
Nevertheless, Ellis finally completed the retreat.
And from the middle floor, which became somewhat safe, they left the dungeon and escaped first.
It wasn’t for living.
It was because there was someone who had to convey this information.
“…The boss went missing on the 100th floor and is in a dangerous situation right now?”
“yes.”
“The grounds?”
“If the princess is safe, it’s because there’s no way she would have seen a situation overflowing with monsters like that.”
“That means you’re already being held hostage by the Liberation Brigade, or in the worst case, you could have lost your life?”
“It can’t be.”
Elise cut it off.
And he said quietly to Limon, who was bandaging his wounds.
“Those monsters weren’t chasing us. They were just trying to get us out of the way while searching the dungeon.”
“In other words, the boss is what they were looking for?”
“That’s right.”
Limon frowned.
It doesn’t make sense.
What if Charlotte was in danger for some reason?
There is a possibility that they hid by using the complex structure of the dungeon while they were unable to retreat to their location.
Then, it is only natural that the remnants of the Liberation Brigade are searching the dungeon to find her.
One problem.
‘To the people of the Liberation Brigade, our boss was cornered like that?’
I wonder if it’s Ainsha.
The princesses of the Seven Dragons are all proud beings.
In particular, it is impossible for Charlotte to run away from her enemies.
What was the reason for her disappearance?
I didn’t even guess.
But finding out why can be done later.
The important thing now was the countermeasures.
“I understand the general situation, but what do you mean by asking me to save the boss?”
“It is as I said.”
“President Ellis. You know what I mean, but it’s a dungeon. You’ve found the wrong person to ask for help.”
“No, I got it right.”
Watching Limon sigh.
Alice said seriously.
Charlotte’s disappearance means that something happened that even she couldn’t handle.
If so, the possibility of rescuing Charlotte is small even if he gathers all the armed forces of the Golden Dragon clan and re-enters.
At least the Absolute class.
It also required the cooperation of a superhuman comparable to that of a voluptuous princess.
But, of course, other princesses couldn’t stand up for such a dangerous task.
Even if there was a willingness to help, considering that it would take several days to get here, Limon was the only one who could save Charlotte now.
Above all…
“Doesn’t you, Swordsman, have a way to save the princess?”
the moment I heard that.
Limon’s face hardened.
“…do you know what that means?”
“Of course I know.”
“Then you know I can’t do that favor, right?”
“You misunderstand. This is not a request.”
“Then what is it?”
Are you thinking of making threats against yourself?
Elis did not answer to Limon, who frowned.
I just showed it through my actions.
dump.
“I will do anything.”
“…”
“So please help the princess.”
own property and body.
that I would give you everything
It doesn’t matter if you kiss Limon’s feet and serve as a slave for the rest of your life.
So just save Charlotte.
Among the most arrogant and lofty Geumryong clan in the Seven Dragons, let’s be silent for a while at the ‘begging’ of a proud woman next to Charlotte.
Limon sighed.
“Wake up.”
“I won’t wake up until you answer.”
“It doesn’t matter as long as it stays the same, but finding the boss will be delayed that much.”
“What do you mean…?”
“Don’t drink kimchi soup. It hasn’t been decided yet.”
Limon slightly shook his head at Ellis, who had eyes full of hope.
From the beginning, he had no intention of neglecting the missing Charlotte.
No, if it was a different place, he would have taken the lead to find it, even if Alice hadn’t asked for it.
But it’s a dungeon.
It was not a place that even Limon could easily touch.
Especially considering the place where the remains of Indy Jones are located.
So, Limon said seriously.
“As you know, there is someone I must seek cooperation from before I can find the boss.”

“….”
Dance with the wolves.
An officer of the Continental Guard.
As a voice magician at the pinnacle of witchcraft.
Having lived for more than 500 years, he was Noh Kang-ho, who had accumulated all sorts of experiences, even going through the spirit war.
But at this very moment.
For the first time since he became Unryeongsa by Roh Kang-ho, who was worse than himself, he was experiencing a headache for the first time.
“So…”
It was such a shock.
Even receiving a throbbing feeling in his stomach, which had never had trouble since becoming Unryeongsa.
He opened his mouth in a clear voice that danced with wolves.
“…Are you asking me to help you save the Golden Dragon Princess? Me and no one else?”
“okay.”
Why is this human being able to say such absurd things so calmly?
he got a headache
To himself, who plotted to kill Princess Geumryong, to ask him to help save her.
Because it wasn’t a sane idea.
However, he couldn’t help but ask ‘Are you crazy?’, so he calmly asked, calming his excitement as much as possible by activating the cooling circuit.
“What exactly are you looking for?”
“Evacuation of people.”
“Even the Golden Dragon Clan could handle introducing the residents near the dungeon, so why…”
in the midst of asking.
he stopped talking.
It’s because one absurd assumption came to mind in his clever head, as expected of a magician.
“no way…?”
“Yes, all citizens of this city need to be evacuated.”
“Are you crazy?”
Dancing with the wolves vomited out the words that it had been holding back.
It was because he had finally realized what Limon was trying to do.
But he wasn’t angry.
I just answered calmly, as if I knew that.
“I know it’s not an easy task, so I’m asking for your cooperation. Because only the Continental Guardian can do that in a short time.”
Rushmore is a Dominion.
Moreover, as it was the stronghold of the Democratic Party, even Alice had limits in exercising her power here.
What if you want to evacuate all the population of well over hundreds of thousands in a short time?
It was a difficult task even for the Golden Dragon clan, who did not know how impossible it was.
That’s why Limon came to seek cooperation.
Only one person can do that.
As the chief of the Continental Guardians, he was only dancing with the wolves who had an absolute influence on Rushmore City.
“Do you think I will cooperate?”
“No, probably not.”
“…why are you saying this when you know that?”
“Because it’s what you have to do.”
He frowned.
I don’t know if anyone else
It was no joke that Limon, who had fought against the Seven Dragons for hundreds of years and had killed more princesses than anyone else, would say such a thing.
However, Limon did not change his answer.
I just calmly explained it.
“If the Gold Dragon Princess were to die in this city, the Gold Dragon clan would not stand still.”
“I’m sure he’ll go out of his way to get revenge.”
“The result will be chaos that will involve not only the citizens of this city, but people all over the world, including North America.”
he was silent
Of course, he also tried to provoke the Golden Dragon clan by sending an attacker to Charlotte and adjust racial discrimination with his own death.
But that and this case were different.
On the other hand, even if he dies, the Continental Guardian will stop at the proper line.
The Geumryong Clan, who lost the princess, will run amok until they perish.
Clearly, that’s not the result he wanted.
But…
“Ha, it worked out rather well.”
“Good?”
“If that happens, people will also remember how filthy white people are.”
Get rid of the hated Golden Dragon Princess.
The gold dragon clan, which is in the way, collapses.
As a bonus, even white people can be kicked out of this continent.
What is the reason to stop it?
watching him sigh
Limon sighed.
“Like you, the little boy who still hasn’t forgotten your grandfather’s work?”
“dare!”
That moment.
Dancing with the wolves raised their eyes.
Then, as if looking at an enemy, he glared at Limon with ferocious eyes and spoke with a growl.
“No matter how you are, there are things you can and cannot do.”
“You didn’t say anything wrong. Looking at you now, you don’t look much different from your grandfather.”
“…!”
“Why don’t you dance with the wolves?”
How insulting were those words?
Limon didn’t even raise an eyebrow when he saw him spouting life.
a very long time ago
After he got the name ‘Dancing with the Wolves’.
Before changing the skin with witchcraft.
He only mentioned the name of a mixed-race boy that only a few people knew.
“No Columbus III.”
“Don’t call me by that name!!!”
That moment.
As he screamed furiously, his right hand cracked, and the charged particle cannon protruding from within emitted light.
Kwaaang!
