Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 588
All sorts of rumors spread around Bant Castle for the sake of the lord’s honor .
As it is a world where the Middle Ages and modern times are mixed, industrial growth has been great, but entertainment has not developed much.
It is common to get up early in the morning and work until the sun goes down, and then spend time preparing for the next day.
Speaking of entertainment, there was not much to do other than drink and gamble, and it was common to talk nonsensically.
“So it was all a power struggle in a back alley?”
“Eh, anyway, this went too far. Didn’t you hear it too? Did thunder rise from the earth to the sky? Heaven is angry.”
“There are eyewitnesses. I also looked from a distance on the roof of the house, and there were people there.”
“It is a place where no one has been redeveloped since before, does it make sense? Even if you are a bum.”
People who gather in a bar and talk to each other. The bar was also a place to gather after work.
I also sipped a beer between them. Compared to the beer I drank when I was outside, it tasted strangely bitter, but it was more edible than I thought.
“Looks like you’re talking hard.”
Biller and the gang members are natives of this place. He had been running the organization for quite some time and was deeply involved with the residents of Bant Castle.
In other words, it is a story that I know empirically what rumors spread quickly about the ecosystem and human relations here.
The effect was clear, and it faithfully carried out what I asked for.
A huge explosion that occurred while fighting Shinepa. so-called Big Bang. There were rumors that there were eyewitnesses who watched it.
First of all, the wind catcher comes out.
‘Biller will come out when it’s somewhat ripe and even heard by the knights.’
I saw what happened last night. All you have to do is testify to the knights that there were Shinepa and Jahal, who divided the underworld, and things that people can’t show happened.
Actually, it was a dangerous thing. Even so, it was an organization close to a gang of bullies in the neighborhood, and Jahal was a huge organization that dominated the area.
There was a risk of retaliation, so he was reluctant at first, but when I told him that the two were vampires and that Shinepa had been killed, he relaxed a bit.
There was also the testimony of Prelda, a top-notch monster hunter next to you.
‘At the point of becoming a witness, you are protected by a knight.’
This was also important. No matter how high-ranking the knights were and had a lot of authority, they wouldn’t neglect the only witness.
When I even said that I was going to catch Zahal, Biller decided to join me.
A point in time when some time has passed since you started working.
“The time has come soon.”
I opened the door to the bar and looked at the drivers coming in, raising my eyebrows.
His eyebrows were furrowed as if he didn’t like the stale interior with the smell of sweat and alcohol, but he didn’t act out.
instead.
“I heard rumors that there was an eyewitness to the big explosion. If anyone knows more details, please come out. I will definitely pay for the information.”
Concerned that someone might not be a hard article, he starts with the main topic as soon as he arrives.
Those who watch each other. The knight offered a price, but for now, there is a difference in status.
If you say something strange for no reason and get beaten up, you can’t go anywhere and say it’s unfair.
Annoyed by the situation, the knight throws the money bag at the empty table.
Gold coins pop out of loosely tied pockets.
“Hmm!”
“Isn’t that the gold coin?”
“gulp. How much is that?”
Slowly, one of those who noticed came out.
“Hmm. Dear article, I’ve heard some things. Wasn’t there a commotion last night? The house isn’t very far away, so I stuck my head out the window to see what was going on…” ”
Only the main topic. briefly.”
“Uh, I couldn’t go there because some thugs and guards gathered nearby, so I wonder if the witnesses were watching from a rooftop somewhere. lol.”
– Pleasant!
After saying that, the man who had been slapped in the jaw rolled on the floor.
It looks like you’re using your fist. The punch is neat.
“If you’re going to talk nonsense, shut up.”
silence came again. I was greedy for money, but I knew that if I went out now, I would end up like the man I just did.
The timing of the knights clicking their tongues slightly, as if they did not have high expectations.
“I know the eyewitness.”
I got up and lifted the bag of gold coins from the table.
Those who glared at me with sharp eyes. It seemed like he was trying to overpower himself before talking nonsense, but it seemed to me that he was just pretending to be strong.
“It wouldn’t be fun if I lied.”
“I only speak the truth.”
Beside me, Deokchun narrowed his eyes and looked at me, but he didn’t cry.
“Let me introduce myself. My name is Evileye, the elite monster hunter.”
“Express!”
“This is a rare encounter.”
The eyes of the knights shine at the word “special monster hunter.”
Although they are not treated well, monster hunters are the strongest civilian armed force, excluding knights and mercenaries.
In particular, when it came to monsters, they were treated as experts, and nobles who were caught up in strange things came separately.
It depends on the grade, but if it is a special grade, it is a strong person that even knights cannot easily touch.
‘Of course not me.’
Because it is not separately qualified. It’s not a complete lie, though, because I got permission to come inside at any time at Vega’s party, so it’s a similar feeling.
Anyway, being able to roam around the Vega party at will is like a super monster hunter, so it feels pretty similar. cancer. by the way
“Can you prove it?”
“I heard that monster hunters have a plaque to prove their rank.”
“I lost it in the last battle, so I don’t have any cards, but I have other monster hunters to prove my identity. You can contact Vega Party if you want.”
It was just a utterance, but there was no way the knights could confirm it.
If you contact the real Vega Party, then you want them to take care of themselves. I don’t know if they’ll take it well because they’re gongdols, but the people around them will help.
“For now, believe me. Guide the witness.”
“I see. By the way…”
I pointed at the people who gathered at the bar to watch us.
“I think we should go quietly. As you may know, the underworld is connected to this incident. It doesn’t matter to me, but as a witness, there is no way to stop the retaliation.”
“If the eyewitnesses are real, the Knights Templar will directly protect them while this incident is being dealt with. to lead.”
I will keep it because I said it with my own mouth.
The knights wield their swords with their sheaths and bite people.
A few fearless guys chased after them, but when they drew out their real swords, they all ran away.
Still, this is pretty savvy. If you see that the limbs are not cut off right away.
anyway.
The knights who received the alley contact to enter the building where Biller is located were controlling all over the alley.
Those who saw the leader’s face stepped aside.
“Here it is. Biller! go in.”
I opened the door and went inside.
“Evil, oh. How are the knights here?”
Pupil shaking vigorously. A table full of sundry items and subordinates doing something as if they hadn’t expected it at all.
‘He’s good at acting.’
There shouldn’t be any surprises because I gave the word in advance, but I’m sure someone would be really surprised when they see it.
Biller’s men automatically stand on the wall and two knights guard the door.
A knight who seemed to be a senior stood in front of Biller.
“Are you an eyewitness to the big explosion?”
“That’s true. no way!”
The guy who glared at me.
“The knights are investigating, so we have to be able to not cooperate.”
He waved his hands and shrugged his shoulders.
Biller, who had an angry expression on his face, let out a small sigh and offered the driver a chair.
Of course I didn’t sit down. When the knight did not sit down, Biller opened his mouth while standing still.
“I know what happened that day, but I didn’t look very closely.”
“I was there, but I don’t know the details. You are very humble.”
“You will have to tell everything you know without hiding anything.”
As I recited the lines, the knight quietly touched the sword and urged me.
okay. That was enough to pique my interest.
“Whoa. All right. Instead, what I said must be kept secret. Otherwise, an ordinary person like me will run away from that day. Wow…”
Biller swallowed a gulp and lowered his voice.
“It’s because Zahal and Shinepa got involved.”
The expression of the knight hardens at the two names. I was expecting it, but actually hearing it is different.
Although it was a long time ago, the Knights also had a history of fighting vampires, and you must have heard of Zahal in the process.
Shinepaya You might not know because the power wasn’t great at the time.
‘He must have known since he would have investigated separately later.’
There was no big reaction from the article as to how much I guessed. Until Biller says the next thing.
“Shinefa is dead. It was a fight that I couldn’t even think of as a human being. Blood explodes and nails grow. I was a vampire.”
“You’d better not go anywhere and say you’re a vampire.”
“Sure! I mean, it’s in front of the knights. I have to tell you everything I know.”
“Why were you on site at that time?”
“It’s kind of hard to say this. I do some work in the alley. They protect the merchants and exchange small amounts of money in return. Hmmmmm Anyway, a small organization like us is bound to get swept away here and there, so when a large organization moves, we need to quickly know what is going on.”
“You were spying on me.”
“That’s how I make a living doing this.”
After that, the guy who brings out the words that I had lined up with me.
I was worried that I might forget my lines, but he was a good guy with memorization skills.
Additional questions came and went, and after about two hours had passed, the article sighed and nodded.
“Thank you for your cooperation. Safety is guaranteed until the job is done. But until then, you will have to keep helping.”
“of course!”
Biller smiles brightly as he takes the money bag the knight gives him.
I heard that finances are not good these days, but I am dying.
I wanted to hit him for no reason, but I shook my head. Still, it did everything I wanted.
What’s left.
“Knight.”
“hmm?”
“Looks like we’re going to need some human hands to sort this out.”
All I could do was naturally mingle with the knights and hit him.
“Aren’t monster hunters experts here? The same goes for things about outer nature.”
“Do you want to be together or what do you want?”
“There is nothing else. At this point, I want to clean up the bloodsuckers hiding in the outer castle. What would a monster hunter do? I have to catch the monster.”
It was going like this and that, but my goal was clear.
find caliber At the same time, secure Pamurada, who must have bitten Miya.
It’s hard alone. It was impossible to do anything with the vampires starting from the confrontation with Shinepa.
If it was Jahal, he might have been able to make a deal on the condition that he not touch other vampires in exchange for help in catching Pamudara and Caliber, but with the arrival of the Knights, that possibility passed over.
In the end, there is only one option left.
‘Weaving calibers together puts pressure on Zahal. Then, if Jahal is not going to be defeated alone, he will try to attract Pamudara. Because Caliber is Pamurada’s younger brother.’
Looking at it, it’s not like Famuda doesn’t interact with completely different vampires.
If that was the case, I wouldn’t have been with Shineepa either. There must be some kind of contact network.
“The reason I came to the outer castle is to secure security and guarantee safety to the residents who are trembling with anxiety in the name of the lord. In order to do that, I believe that the culprits of this incident must catch Jahal and Caliber, who have been attacking the residents in the past.”
I spoke again and again to the article.
“Even for the sake of the lord’s honor.”
