The Blood Knight’s Villains - Chapter 103
My Villains Episode 103
26. Fever (4)
“Are you that famous?”
“then. There was no stranger in South Harbor!”
A boy with muddy hair who has lived his entire life in the boring rural town of Inbury longed for adventure and the city. South Harbor, the largest city in the South, was a very interesting story for the boy.
“Ah lie. How many people are there in South Harbor?”
“That’s why it was so famous. But this is a secret. You must never tell anyone.”
“secret?”
“huh. That he was that bloody swordsman. It’s a secret.”
“why’?”
“Dad said it was a secret? He must be on a secret mission.”
“Secret mission…”
the chubby boy from South Harbor roared with excitement as the bushy-haired boy nodded, swallowing dry saliva.
“When he gets angry, he emits flames from his sword, but they say it’s not just ordinary fire, but an extremely hot fire called from the realm of salt.”
“The flame of the flames…
” Every time you wield it, dozens of people fall down, so even thieves can’t stand it. Did you cut down the robber baron and the ‘creeping dragon’ in one shot?”
“A creeping dragon? I heard from my uncle that Prince Ulkar killed the creeping dragon.”
“They killed them together. That’s why Prince Ulkar appointed the bloody swordsman as a knight.”
“And the knight.”
As the sloppy-haired boy makes a hazy expression, the girl who was sitting still stabs him in the side.
“Brother, let’s go quickly. Mom told me to pull out all the grass in the oat field by noon.”
“You go first. I’ll follow you soon.”
The shaggy-haired boy stood up, brushing his butt, and took the chubby boy’s hand and dragged him along.
“Rupert has a wooden sword at my house. Would you like to go see it?”
“wooden sword?”
“huh. I made it myself and it’s very sturdy. Can you kill a goblin with one shot?”
The boy called Rupert hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
“no. Daddy said you can’t go inside the village.”
“Oh right. Shall we pick up some twigs and make them?” The girl was taken aback by the boy’s words.
“Brother, did you forget that I was almost bitten by a wild dog last week when I was making bows? If I did that again, would I be kicked out of the house?”
“If you stay quiet, you won’t get scolded. At that time, you were scolded because you told your mother!”
“Why are you angry with me!”
“It’s because you’re bothering me. Hurry up and pull the grass!”
“Ee-ing…
As the girl turned around crying, the boy with tawny hair sighed as if he had caught his mood and sat back down.
“It’s all boring. I also want to leave the village and venture out into the world.”
“Adventure is not that easy, Nabari. To the thieves, to the cultists, to the monsters. How many dangerous things are there.”
Nabari, a boy with muddy hair, replied as he lay down on the grass.
“It would be nice if I had the same ability as blood manipulation. Then it will become very strong like the bloody swordsman you said?”
“How rare an ability is bloodletting. And besides, most of the blood mages play the role of cheap doctors, aren’t they?”
Rupert, a chubby boy, also laid down.
“I wish there was something like divine power rather than blood manipulation.”
“Divine power? If you become a priest, you won’t be able to get married, right?”
“I can become a paladin.”
“Paladin? Aren’t you a cathedral knight?”
“huh. A paladin from the Order of Calandari
.” At the mention of the Church of Calandari, Navari’s expression softened a bit.
“But… isn’t that heresy?”
“What are you talking about? So, are you saying that Princess Theodora is a heretic?”
“Princess Theodora was a woman and no longer a member of our kingdom, so they said it didn’t matter if she was a heretic or not. My uncle said that.”
“As long as there is divine power, what country does it matter? Money and power will come in through the vines.”
At Rupert’s words, Navari’s eyes shook slightly.
‘Is this why my uncle told me not to hang out with people in the city?’
It was then.
Doo doo doo.
A group of men and horses ran along the open road between the fields.
There were a total of six human horses, all wearing black cloaks and black chain armor.
Nabari’s eyes widened when he discovered them.
“They’re ‘black wolves.’”
“Black wolves?”
“huh. bounty hunters.”
Curiosity welled up in the eyes of the two boys. The boys ran to the entrance of the village, following the black wolves as if possessed.
“But how do you know them?”
“He came to our village. A few weeks ago.”
Among the bounty hunters Nabari saw then, he remembered the boss. He was as reticent as a rock, but his eyes were as sharp as a wolf’s.
The two boys ran to the entrance of the village and hid themselves on the side of the road as if they were doing a covert operation.
Navari glanced over at the black wolves, then gave a disappointed expression. It was because the head of the head was nowhere to be found.
“What else is going on in our village?”
“I’m here to find someone.”
“Who?”
“…there is no reason to tell you that. Didn’t merchants come to town a few days ago?”
The one-eyed man who was talking with the vigilante looked around the village. Then, when he found a group of people camping near a wooden fence, he chinned them.
“Is it them?”
“exactly.”
“Has anyone entered the village?”
The vigilante leader snorted at the one-eyed man’s question.
“I have no reason to tell you that.”
” under.”
The one-eyed man smiled and rummaged in his arms. Then he took out some parchment and unfolded it.
“We are doing the work of the Marquis of Alphard. You’d better cooperate if you don’t want to fall under a terrible curse.”
At the low bluff, the vigilante kept his mouth shut. Then he sighed and shrugged his shoulders.
“There are three people in town.”
“…three? Who is that?”
“I don’t know either. Well, except for knights, savages, and patients.”
“Knights and barbarians and patients?”
The one-eyed man frowned and thought for a moment. Then he asked the commander of the vigilante.
“Where are they staying now?”
“…It’s a big old man’s house.”
The one-eyed man looked back and ordered.
“Follow me, Tobias. Check out the rest over there.”
After saying that, he threw two silver coins at the vigilante and rode his horse into the village.
Rupert and Navari faced each other.
“Where are you going?”
“I can’t go into town anyway. Let’s go towards the camp.”
“But…
Navari glanced toward the village. It was because he was more curious about fire-breathing knights than ordinary merchants or mercenaries.
Rupert, noticing the sign, said.
“Then let’s part ways for a moment. We’ll talk to each other later about what happened.”
“good!”
Nabari quickly ran to the village. Thanks to a narrow shortcut, Nabari was able to reach the village chief’s house before the two bounty hunters. The boy quickly hid himself on top of an elm tree.
“Look! Are you inside?”
The one-eyed man shouted, but there was no response from the village chief’s house.
“If you don’t come out, we’ll go in!”
After shouting a few times, the gate finally opened with a squeal. Nabari gave a small admiration.
“…and.”
The boy had never seen a man so tall in his life.
Even the knight in black plate armor was astounding, but the savage with his upper body exposed was jaw-droppingly gigantic.
“What about you?”
A low voice came from the knight. He was a handsome man that could not be found in the countryside, but his cold expression and expressionless expression made him feel uneasy.
The one-eyed man also swallowed dry saliva as if he had sensed it.
“…Nice to meet you. We are hired by the family of Marquis Alphard.”
“so.”
“Is there someone you are looking for?”
“Who?”
“I can’t tell you that.”
The knight stared at the one-eyed man.
Even though the opponent was on a horse, the knight was so tall that he didn’t feel like looking up.
Navari’s appearance reminded him of a snake he had once seen in a wheat field. A venomous snake that flicks its tongue while lowering its stance.
“…whatever?”
“I heard there are three in total.”
“however.”
“Where is the other one?”
The knight put his hand on the handle of the long sword.
“Why?”
“…I want to see your face.” “Face?”
“exactly. We have to check whether he is the person we are looking for or not.”
“Who are you looking for?”
“I cannot tell.”
For some reason, Nabari had numbness in his hamstrings. It was because it seemed that the snake would jump out at any moment.
hee hee hee
As the horse galloped back, the two bounty hunters quickly tugged at the reins.
“Is it a wizard you are looking for?”
“…I can’t tell.” The black gauntlet clenched and gripped the handle of the sword.
“……okay?”
The knight’s mouth twisted.
“Not here.”
“…that’s what”
“it means go away.”
“If you show your face, it will go away.”
short silence.
“Utequai.”
Ew bar n *
The moment the poisonous snake was about to jump out.
“trunnion?”
A small but sonorous voice.
The knight looked back with his eyes wide open.
“Ellen?”
Nabari followed the knight’s gaze and found a woman in her mid to late teens.
‘…what is that?’
The woman was floating about two inches in the air, her golden hair moving slowly as if wrapped in a light breeze.
Her skin was so transparent that her veins were visible, and her long eyelashes, sharp nose and pink lips reminded her of a fairy in a legend.
Navari believed the woman to be something other than human. Because it was so mysterious.
“How and when did you wake up?”
The knight’s impression took a dramatic turn. brightened face. It looked really good, Nabari thought.
“. ….Whoa.” The one-eyed man with his hand in his bosom sighed. Then he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
The knight standing next to the woman looked back in shock. Then, after checking the atmosphere of the one-eyed man, he put on a puzzled expression for a moment.
“…wasn’t. I’ll just go.”
“No?”
At the knight’s question, the one-eyed man shrugged.
“exactly. Any problems?”
“What does that mean?”
“…What do you mean? It means that the person we are looking for is not the wizard there.”
The knight gazed at the one-eyed man with his brows narrowed. Then he put the knife in and nodded.
“…that’s good.”
“…that’s good. then.”
The one-eyed man glanced at the knight, barbarian, and woman for a moment, then turned his head.
As the two bounty hunters disappeared from sight, the woman abruptly opened her mouth.
“But Poi. What’s that inside?”
“huh? Is that it?”
“You have a stinky hairball.”
“Oh pig? picked up nearby Is your body better than that?”
“Yeah, I think I’m feeling better.”
“I’m glad. The fever went down, but I didn’t get up, so I was worried.”
“…but why did you pick up the pig?”
“The child must have been sick and his body was hot. I remembered you and brought you Aren’t you hungry? Do you want to eat?”
“Did you think of me when you saw the pig?”
“That’s not what you mean. Oh, the milk here is fresh and good. Shall I boil some tarak porridge?”
“What is Corrupted Porridge? And why do you keep talking about eating? Do you think I am a real pig?”
“No, you haven’t eaten properly for several days because you were sick.”
“Would you like some bread? And throw it away quickly. I mean, it stinks.”
“… Hey, why are you so heartless?”
Nabari felt the conversation between the two and was a bit disappointed. The man who was like a poisonous snake and the woman who was like a fairy now
looked like ordinary people.
It was then that Nabari met the knight’s eyes.
“Ouch”
the startled boy drew in his breath. Reddish black eyes stared at him.
The boy, stiff as a frog that encountered a snake, was unable to move until the knight smiled and disappeared.
