Chapter.37 《Side Story》 A wizard’s hotel
Count Guiltimond fell alone on his way back from the capital. Accompanied by only the slaves he had rescued and the two knights necessary to enjoy the event in secret, he escaped through a side road.
Something brought about by impatient behavior.
By the bandits, the knight was killed, the slave was taken away, and Earl Guiltimond was chased.
As a knight, it is impossible to be attacked by bandits in the first place.
But he was a strange bandit.
It was so strong.
“You bastards. I will never forgive you… .”
Count Guiltimond huffed and puffed as he barely escaped.
‘I am a slave bought at a high price… Even slave traders are so vicious these days. It’s expensive… ‘Damn it!’
The word damn won’t leave my mouth. It was so sad that I almost cried. That’s right, last time too, the slave I bought for a lot of money died before I could even touch it.
Are you born with a weak body?
How weak do you have to be to get hit just a little bit and die right away?
It absolutely makes no sense.
These are the people who sold such defective products. I tried to inquire but couldn’t get in touch. Should I call it a scam?
Thanks to you, I had a hard time making a deal with a new slave trader. I barely managed to get it, but this time it was a bandit.
‘I can’t believe this Count Guiltimond is a bandit!’
The moment I let go of my guard to have fun, the bandits attacked. The timing is so perfect.
Things haven’t been going well for a number of reasons lately. Was the name of the girl who died after struggling so hard and hitting her a few times, Mellie?
The Count thinks that something has been going wrong since he threw it away.
Since Celie lied about her name, the Count still knew her as Mellie.
‘Because it’s unlucky.’
Imperial law prohibited private slave trading, but anything could happen behind the scenes.
‘Where is this anyway?’
Count Guiltimond realized that he was completely lost. The day is getting darker and foggy.
-Awww~~~~!
The howl of an animal was heard nearby. Although I was wearing a sword, I knew that my life would be in danger if I was attacked by a wild beast in such a foggy place, so I frowned and moved to somehow find my way.
“Krrrrrrr.”
But what I heard was the roar of a wild beast. Count Guiltimond, who discovered the large beast, began to run away.
Then a huge building appeared before his eyes.
A building in the mountains like this?
Count Guiltimond was curious, but he had no time as the wild beast was chasing him.
I pounded desperately on the door.
-Kkeeeeeek!
Then the iron door began to squeak and open on both sides. It’s not like anyone is opening the door. Almost automatically.
It was quite a bizarre scene, but Count Guiltimond had no choice but to avoid the pursuing beasts, so he entered the building without any hesitation.
Then the door begins to close automatically.
Because the situation was so urgent, Count Guiltimond was unable to concentrate on the doors opening and closing automatically, and looked around the building, relieved that he had survived.
Inside the building was a luxurious space that could not even be imagined in the mountains surrounded by fog.
A red carpet was laid out in the hallway leading from the entrance. The ceiling is very high and the chandeliers sparkle.
At the end of the red carpet, a lobby-like area appeared. Count Guiltimond first walked into the lobby.
At the end of the lobby was a place that looked like a front desk.
‘Is this an inn? It’s very luxurious for an inn, isn’t it?’
It’s a luxurious inn. Count Guiltimond, thinking that it suited him again, spoke to the woman sitting at the front desk.
“What are we doing here?”
The red-haired woman, Serena, who was sitting arrogantly, started digging her ears as the Count spoke.
He brought the hand that dug into his ear to his mouth and blew on it, then answered the Count as if he was annoyed.
“What are you doing there? As you can see, it’s a hotel.”
“hotel?”
“Well, they say it’s an inn. A luxurious inn is called a hotel. Well, if L is like that, that’s what it is.”
“What is your attitude? “I am the Earl of Guiltimond, lord of Guiltimond over here!”
“Oh, so?”
Serenia snorted and started picking her ears again. Seeing that he, a nobleman, was not paying attention, Earl Guiltimond shouted loudly as if he had lost his temper.
“Oh, how cruel!”
“If you want to stay here no matter what, give me all the jewelry and gold you have. Oh, does that include the property you have now? A jewel is a jewel! “Hehehe.”
Serena’s eyes lit up as her obsession for the jewel burned.
“Are you guys a gang of bandits from earlier? “I cannot forgive you.”
“If you can’t forgive, why don’t you leave again? Of course, there will still be wild beasts outside, right? “If you don’t get out of here safely after daybreak, you’ll become food for the animals waiting for you.”
“noisy!”
How dare you speak informally to a nobleman and make arrogant remarks? The Count felt his anger boiling over and pulled out his sword.
And he aimed at Serena’s neck.
“What a shameless thing. If you want to live, kneel down right now!”
But Serena just laughed. The count thought it was a mockery and tried to swing his sword with force.
But at the same time, the knife, which was still intact, suddenly broke and fell away.
“Why is this like this… .”
“The door for guests to leave is over there. “If you want to give jewelry, come back.”
Serena said as if she was annoyed and then clapped her hands. Then this time a monster appeared.
“What… Monster uhhh?”
“Don’t point fingers! “Something like a bug!”
Whoa whoa!
“Aaaah!”
The monster threw a flying kick. Count Guiltimond was startled and took a step back, but was hit by a flying kick and fell to the ground.
“Don’t hit me… these! “I will never forgive you!”
I decided to go back to the territory and bring my army back to crush it, so I retreated and returned to the gate.
Then the door opens automatically again.
“Krrrrrrr.”
But the Count immediately ran away behind the door again. Outside, countless wild beasts were gathered together, their eyes shining.
“Aaaah!”
Count Guiltimond, who fell in surprise, gathered all the strength he had from breastfeeding and ran back into the building.
Surprisingly, the wild beasts were unable to enter the building. The door closed again and soon the beasts disappeared.
Sigh-! Sigh-!
Barely survived. Count Guiltimond thought like that and looked around again.
Can not help it. For now, I have no choice but to make a false promise and wait for daybreak at this unpleasant inn.
I thought that if I could just go back to the territory, I would give up everything, including promises.
“Okay, good. “You there!”
Count Guiltimond maintained his composure and looked back at the monster standing next to the front desk.
Upon closer inspection, I realized that the object I thought was a monster was not a monster. When I looked closely, it looked like a doll mask. There was a person inside it.
The person with flowing black hair was wearing a doll mask that resembled a dragon.
The dragon’s mouth was the face, and the hands, legs, and wings were drawn on the doll mask. A woman’s face appears in the dragon’s mouth.
What a beautiful girl.
But even so, the lust that accounted for 90% of Count Guiltimond was not activated.
“I told you not to point fingers!”
The dragon doll mask flew into the sky again.
-Whooooooo!
-Quaaaang!
With the second fierce and powerful flying kick, Count Guiltimond flew far away, rolled around in the lobby, and fell against the wall.
Count Guiltimond had to leave again.
“I am a dragon! “Kkkkkkk!”
“Hey, what did you say? Did you say penguin? “I thought you told me to wear those clothes, but why are you wearing them?”
Sereina picked up the dragon doll mask and urged Lurin, who was flying around. At the same time, Lulin raises his eyebrows and answers.
“Penguin? “That fadang padang?”
“It must be fluttering. “Are you stupid?”
Lurin started imitating a penguin by flapping the doll’s hands, which were combined with the wings of the hand part of the dragon doll mask.
Then, he stepped on the fluffy tail of the doll mask he was wearing and fell forward.
“Kwaaagh! Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! “It hurts!”
He got up with tears in his eyes, and to relieve his anger, he kicked the Count, who had managed to get up from his slump just in time.
Whoa whoa!
“Aaaah!”
The Count fell again and rolled around in pain. After a while, he finally managed to get himself together and screamed in frustration.
“You didn’t point a finger this time, so why did you hit me! Count Bonn is being treated unfairly!”
“It’s okay because it’s a dragon! “Kwaang!”
A dragon wearing a dragon-shaped doll mask! A crazy woman on the street.
That was the Count’s assessment of Lurin.
There is absolutely no one who can imagine a real dragon in its polymorph state wearing a doll mask and setting up like that.
“So, are you thinking of staying there? Then, will you hand over your treasure, Your Excellency? “Hohohong.”
“Ugh, if you go back to the territory, there are a lot of treasures. “Is that enough?”
“Hmm, are there many?”
Serena showed interest and grabbed the Count by the collar. When the count nodded, holding him by the collar, he threw him onto the sofa in the lobby and took out a piece of paper on the table in front of him.
“Then, shall we write a memorandum of transfer here? All of your treasures belong to me, Serena. I will hand over all the treasures of the territory. Write it down like this, sign it, seal it, etc.”
“then… Does it guarantee safety?”
“Well, that’s right. Tomorrow, that monster will disappear and we can go home, right? “They are wild beasts that are not active during the day.”
“I see! then… !”
Count Guiltimond began to roughly scribble a memorandum on a piece of paper, hiding his secret intentions that he would arrest and kill everyone once they returned to his territory.
It would be enough to just dismiss a memorandum like this as something you don’t know about. When you return to the territory, everything is over.
But for now, in order to survive, he wrote a memorandum with a forced smile and handed it over to Serena.
“Where are you?”
After putting away the memorandum, Serena began to look around the Count’s body. And ordered.
“You take off the ring on that hand too, right? Because it’s mine from now on. Hehehe.”
“These bandits!”
“Who told you to buy it?”
Sereina frowned and grabbed the count’s hair. Unlike Lulin, who had less experience, Serena was able to control even the slightest piercing.
Therefore, whether you make eye contact or are next to her, Serena does not have to feel fear due to her peers as long as she makes up her mind.
However, this time, Serena intentionally shed blood. Thanks to this, Count Guiltimond had to fall with an unknown feeling of fear.
“Hey Lurin. “Give this guy some more kicks.”
“Keuang! Let’s eat!”
“Stop playing dragon cosplay and kick it! “Eat it, really.”
“hate. I don’t eat things like this. dirty. And you are a bandit. He’s a bad guy! Heeheehee kaaaaang!”
Lurin opened his mouth wide and started pretending to eat Serena.
Kwaaang-!
At the same time, it was nice to laugh out loud. However, as he turns around, he steps on the tail of the doll mask again and falls.
“Kaaaaang! “I’m going to cut off this tail!”
