The Blood Knight’s Villains - Chapter 113

My Villains Episode 113

29. Hunting Festival (1)

Meow.

Three days ago, Bappuri showed me jewel-like eyes. Watching those eyes quietly became my new hobby.

It was not a luxury that could be enjoyed for very long.

said the director.

“It’s a bumbaek.”

“yes?”

“Bumbaek. It’s a virus called feline panleukopenia, but the child is too young…J

continued.

I paid for the diagnostic kit and medical bills.

Balance of 130,000 won.

220,000 won for hospitalization for antibody injection.

“Bumbaek is close to impossible to treat at home.”

The nurse’s scolding words.

“The parvo virus doesn’t die very well, so any cat that comes to my house in the future will be infected with it. Picking things up lightly is a problem. If you have a child, you have to take responsibility until the end.”

He stabbed his throat several times, but the nurse’s words did not end.

I came back with rice in my arms.

I couldn’t sleep a wink for three days.

In a short period of sleep, her jewel-like eyes lost their luster.

put on makeup It was 30,000 won.

I’ve been awake for so long, but I can’t fall asleep.

It’s regret. 90,000 won regret.

meow.

The cat cried all night.

I put a belt around my neck, but I couldn’t sleep.

♦

The next morning.

After a hearty meal, we left the tavern and found ourselves in a completely unexpected situation.

“therefore.”

Scratching my head under my helmet, I looked back at the dozens of mercenaries surrounding me.

“Join the gang, is this?”

“exactly.”

“Why all of a sudden?”

The mercenary who introduced himself as ‘Randall’ replied.

“I heard you are good at it. I heard you made a name for yourself in the South.”

“…who did you hear that from?”

“I’ve heard rumors before. Did you say ‘Ed’? I heard you came from South Harbor together.”

“Ed? Maybe Eod?”

“is it? Anyway, he confirmed it. I mean you are that bloody swordsman.”

…Looks like this damn guy brushed his snout right after we broke up. How can you not go through the day

I was swallowing curse words in my head when Randall shrugged.

“You’re not going to go out by yourself, are you? No matter how good your skills are, you won’t be able to do it with three.”

“So what specifically are you suggesting?”

“The kids I have are a little over twenty. All of them have been eating kalgap for more than five years.”

I followed my thumb and scanned the mercenaries behind Randall.

All of them were well-armed. Half of them were wearing heavy scale armor and the rest were wearing chain armor. All of them seemed to be veterans, just as Randall had said.

“I don’t know if you saw the bulletin board, but we are at the forefront of the hunting festival.”

“ Q ”

“Do you know what the benefits are when winning the hunting festival?”

“…do you really believe that?”

“There’s nothing I can’t believe. I heard that the lord has no children or brothers.”

The lord declared that he would give gifts to the five most active people in the hunting festival.

From thick gold coins to historical heirlooms to knighthoods. Various gifts were presented, but the most notable was, of course, the gift given at the time of victory.

Contrary to its name, the bounty was not a thing, but a right. The right to appoint an adopted son to be the heir of the lord.

In other words, it is said that the territory was put up as a commodity.

“I have a cousin brother. He is studying law at the University of Wang Tao. I will make him a lord.”

I have a big dream too.

“Join us. I’ll give you the money.”

“The score?”

“No points. It’s the lead, but it’s a bit intermittent.”

I smiled bitterly and shook my head.

“I am also in a position where I have to collect points for circumstances. Thanks for the suggestion, but that won’t work.”

“Are you going to collect points?”

Randall’s face contorted slightly. Wow, it looks nasty.

“There is no point in collecting points now. It is impossible to receive bounty.”

“How much did you say your score was?”

“…a little less than five hundred points.”

Ute Quai, who had been silent at Randall’s answer, snorted.

“If you kill 100 orcs, you get 500 points. You can collect them quickly.”

“Nonsense.”

He shrugged his shoulders, meeting his suspicious gaze.

“Isn’t it 5 points per orc? 100 would be 500 points.”

“…are you serious?”

“I’m serious.”

Randall looked up into my eyes and spat on the floor.

“Okay, good luck.”

“That too.”

As Randall and his men withdrew, the other gangs that had gathered for a similar purpose scattered with a sigh of regret.

While watching the scattered mercenaries, Ellen suddenly opened her mouth.

“You don’t have any children by that age?”

“huh? Ah, Baron Mallory?”

I remembered the story I heard from the Amias gang yesterday.

“There were three or so children, but they all died young.”

“Did you die young?”

“huh. The last child died with the mother during childbirth. What a pity.”

“Then what about the baroness you saw yesterday?”

“It’s a birdcage. Did you get married just before the Thousand and One Day War?”

I was about to move slowly, but one gang still remained.

“…what are you doing here?”

The group was none other than six mercenaries including Amias.

Steedman, a tight-knit guy from Lavalton, said with an embarrassing laugh.

“That… good morning sir.”

“What is Nari? Fuck it and tell me what’s going on.”

As I laughed and bruised him, Steedman wet his lips and spoke.

“It’s meant to be that we had a drink, but I thought we were going to go hunting together.”

“…Didn’t you hear what I said earlier?”

“Of course I heard. But we don’t need points.”

As I silently crossed my arms, Amias, the leader, spoke instead.

“It’s just what this guy said. I can’t even dream of a bounty without feeling unsatisfied because there are no pages. We just need to get the money.”

“Are you willing to give up all points?”

“okay. As for the bounty… six of us each of you, each of you two. how is it?”

In the case of receiving a bounty through the monster’s ears or nose, as in this hunting festival, it was common for the entire gang to receive the bounty and then distribute it.

Of course, it was only natural that the amount of distribution would vary from person to person, as the equipment and abilities they had were vastly different.

“In short, you and we are going to share half and half?”

“yes.”

…did I miss something? what kind of confidence

I took a good look at the six mercenaries.

Amias Steedman Mummy was carrying an ax or a sword or something, and a Federation plaque the size of her own. Amias and Stidman were also wearing old chain mail.

Booney and Genessa were carrying only short knives, and Cole had only a dagger.

The three guys in front seem to be the front line, and what are the three guys in the back? why don’t you have a weapon?

Amias, who read the question in my eyes, quickly opened his mouth.

“Boonie and Genessa wear long weapons and Cole is an archer. I left the weapon at the gate.”

“Ehh.”

Three shields, two polearms, and long range. It’s a pretty well-balanced combination.

However, the distribution ratio is still not convincing. I think the armament is poor and the skills are not good.

While thinking about it, Ellen opened her mouth.

“What are you thinking about? It’s better to just go by ourselves than to take the mana guys with us.”

“……Isn’t it polite to lower your voice a little when you say something like that?”

“why me?”

I pointed at Ellen and shrugged at the mercenaries.

“Is it okay to have a guy like this?”

“What do you mean by that?”

When Ellen started arguing, I asked for Amias’ understanding for a moment.

Then, with Utequai Ellen and Head to Head, they started discussing.

“No matter how you think about it, it seems a bit dangerous for the three of us to go hunting

.”

“So you want to go around with such goofballs?”

“Something is better than others. If you went under someone like Randall earlier, you’d be swayed for nothing.”

Utequai, who was crossing his arms, opened his mouth.

“Phoenix and I are strong enough. But she is weak.”

“Do you want to get hit?”

“But it is true. The girl trick is strong, but she needs protection. Two is not enough.”

“…. .no.”

Ellen fell silent at Utequai’s serious words.

“Yes, that is what I mean. Since there are three avant-gardes, they will act as a meat shield in case of emergency.”

“What if they betray you?”

“You just have to be careful. And yesterday we chatted roughly and everyone was nice. Even if he betrayed me, I don’t think he’ll pose much of a threat.”

Ellen nodded reluctantly and I turned to Amias.

Amias looked over at his comrades and nodded at me.

“It’s common sense that wizards are picky. I understand.”

“good. And why don’t we decide the distribution ratio later?”

“later? If you don’t decide on that in advance, it will cause trouble.”

I smiled and shook my head.

“It won’t happen.”

“Well, if that’s the case with the knight.”

While Amias and I were having such a conversation, Ellen’s eyes were fixed on one person.

It was Mira, a mercenary with impressive freckles, trembling under Ellen’s gaze.

“…Ellen just in case.”

“what’?”

“You’re not going to put a frost awl in the back of their head or something?”

Ellen was silent for a moment, then glanced at me.

“Nothing like that.”

“Well then, I’m glad.”

In Middle World, all kinds of quasi-human species live.

People often think of fairies or dwarfs in legends when they think of similar races, but most of them are monsters that they encounter in reality.

This is because all kinds of monsters, such as Orcs, Lizardmen, Goblins, Giants, and Fishmen, are classified as similar races.

So, unlike the familiarity that is implicitly felt in the word, similar races are usually enemies of mankind.

Such was the case with Anupad, a half-man, half-dog monster.

kyung kyong kyung!

An Anupad barked ferociously, and those behind him threw javelins at once.

“Keep your head down!”

As Amias shouted, the other mercenaries quickly lowered their stance behind the shield wall.

I hit the flying spear with my shield and then threw a javelin at me. The javelin drew a trajectory close to a straight line.

With a crackling cry, one Anupad fell. I aimed for the object in command, but unfortunately the guy next to it was hit.

Amias’ gang were still cowering behind their shields. I got angry and yelled out loud.

“How long are you going to do that, you assholes! Look ahead!”

In the meantime, five of them jumped out of the twenty or so Anupards.

Anupad was a monster that resembled a dog.

A protruding muzzle with round, large ears. Black, brown, and white fur that is a messy mixture. A white tail and a loud cry. Even a group life where rank is important.

It is a monster that closely resembles a beast called Lycaon or ‘African Wild Dog’.

The only difference from Lycaon is that the size of the adult body is as large as that of an adult male, and that it can hold weapons with long fingers.

To sum up, they are dangerous guys.

Krrr!

Anupads with weapons in their mouths came running on all fours. The five detached troops, who had been galloping like swift hounds, took a detour to the side of the shield wall in an instant.

“Damn it back!”

The rushing ranks were disrupted.

One hundred, not two hundred, but only six. But the hands and feet don’t match, and the heat is messed up.

I sighed and opened my mouth.

“Stop the guy coming back from Utequai.”

” i get it.”

and yelling.

“You idiots, look ahead and raise your shield! A javelin is flying!”

Utequai blocked the detachment, and the mercenaries hurriedly raised their shields to block the javelin.

Cole, a sharp-eyed archer, shot and killed one of the detached troops in the process. That guy seems to be useful.

“Darrve qun-ta!”

The dolme retrieved from the gateway tore through the air and smashed a dog’s head.

Wow!

The other Anupad quickly stood upright, holding the weapon in their mouth.

“Wow!”

Utequai fiercely swung the dolma, but Anupad was not a good match because they were all nimble.

An Anupad, holding a sharp pulse, ducked to avoid the Dolme and attacked Utequai.

“Hey!”

Utequai threw the dolma and punched out.

baek!

The muzzle was crushed in an instant, and then an outstretched hand squeezed his throat.

kyung kyong kyung!

Judging that Utequai had lost his weapon, the other three immediately attacked, but shouted, “Come on!”

Utequai swung the dead Anupad with one hand, deflecting the attack, and spurred the ground to grab hold of the hulking Anupad.

Within seconds of reaching Utequai’s hand, the great Anupad died from a broken neck and back.

Utequai snatched the spiked club from the corpse’s hand.

While Utequai was active,

the Amias gang, who encountered the main force of the enemy…….

“Wow!

”

“Call call! Arrows here!”

“Where are you going mummy
