Novel The Max Level Hero has Returned! - Chapter 526
Chapter 526: It
‘s cold.
Silence blows in and sticks.
But don’t worry.
“Monmider.”
“What kind of guy… Huh!? That low!”
Upon finding me, Monmider widened his eyes, saw my hand snap, and came running like a bullet.
“You’re here!”
Seeing him lowering his head, I remained silent.
All the vigilantes gathered.
In the first place, the name of the vigilante is colorless, but the ones who currently have the title of vigilante refer to those who were in the early days of the Heinz estate.
There is a traitor among them.
The young man, called the Descent of the Illuminati, said there was a traitor among the vigilantes.
So, is there really a traitor among them?
“Brother? I… what kind of situation is this…”
“Varis. Did you confirm about the guy who attacked you?”
“It… I’m sorry. It appeared and disappeared as if it were framed. But how does my brother know that…” “What
traces did he leave behind?”
Varys took out a small piece of paper from within her arms.
“As if to warn me, it left me and disappeared.”
When he opened the paper that Varys held out, he saw a triangle and a pupil pattern engraved in the center.
Seeing as there is no trace of mana, it is simply a piece of paper with a pattern drawn on it.
However, it was judged that it was dangerous to keep it next to Varys because it could fool my eyes if I used the power of the special ability.
Taking the paper with the pattern that Varys gave me, I looked back at the vigilantes who were looking at me with a puzzled expression.
“Sorry for the late hour, but I called you guys because I need to check something. I’ll apologize first.”
At my words, they silently nodded.
“Please command me. Your servant! We are always ready to follow your orders.”
Did you say that you can know ten ways under water, but not one way inside people?
I have no way of ascertaining which of these is the traitor. I can’t even use torture, so it’s literally stifling.
If so, how can we find the Illuminati’s nephew that the Descent spoke of?
The method turned out to be simpler than I thought.
Isn’t there the world’s best specialist list who looks into someone’s inner world?
Unless the Illuminati are bizarre beings like jewels bestowed by the goddess Pria or non-parallel beings from another dimension like Reina, they will definitely be eaten.
I immediately took out the crystal ball for communication that was made to be directly connected to Perserk.
Then he said to the vigilantes who were staring blankly at me.
“I’m sorry, but I’m going to ask you just one question from now on. The answer will only be [yes] and [no]. Okay?”
“Yes lower!”
Captain Monmider stands at the forefront and answers.
[Davy?]
“Perserk. Help me a little.”
At my words, Perserk cut off the communication without saying anything.
Chijik….
And when a little time has passed since contact was lost.
The space was torn and a silver-haired girl with an eye-catching beauty appeared.
She slowly approached me with sparkling red eyes of a similar color to mine, due to her disguise being slightly darker than the red eyes typical of the demons.
“From now on, I will ask you one question.”
Only answer ‘yes’ or ‘no’, but tell the truth.
At my words that follow, the vigilantes’ faces show tension.
If it’s hard to look into the inside perfectly, it’s okay to check only what’s revealed on the outside.
“Are you all related to the Illuminati?”
At my calm question, the vigilantes showed puzzled expressions.
“Perserk.”
After that, I called for Perserk who looked at the members silently while standing next to her, and she slowly closed her eyes and opened her mouth.
* * *
“He’s a brainy guy.”
I didn’t miss the pungka until the end.
Thanks to that, it was this side that gave the initiative until the end.
A word that there may be a traitor inside. And considering his affiliation, it was also a fairly credible and effective lie.
He had the knack to strike back even when he was kicked out after eating candy from me.
It was clear that he was more cautious than the stupid foes he’d met so far.
It is clear that it is not an easy opponent for me, who does not have the power to look into others as before.
“Does Davey look very busy these days?”
Perserk, who was sitting by the window with a relaxed face and gently shaking his legs, smiled mischievously.
“I was stupidly fooled.”
“I don’t think I’ll know without seeing it, so I won’t ask questions.”
The quick-witted Perserk seemed to have figured out why I was doing this, but Varys wasn’t.
“Hyung-nim. What the hell is going on? You suddenly appeared…”
“It’s nothing special. Rather than that, Baris, explain in detail what happened at the time.”
At my words, Varys looked back and explained the memories of that time with a complicated face.
On his way back to his bedroom while talking with Chief Chamberlain Vespers, someone attacked him in the dark and disappeared.
And it left traces of the Illuminati just before disappearing.
What this meant was simple.
You can aim for Varys’ life at any time.
And the target of the warning
was… It was directed at me, not Varys.
A warning from that gunman called Descent to me.
Although his fighting ability is overwhelmingly inferior to him.
On the contrary, it has been making its own power in this land for a long time.
Suddenly,
his fist tightened, and the patterned paper he was holding in his hand was terribly crumpled.
Without stopping there, the sound of the twisting of the bones in the hands was heard.
Hey these fuckers.
“Keuuh? Brother!”
I could hear Varys’ screams, but the flesh that began to pour out of me slowly lost control and began to oppress the surroundings.
grasp!!
As Varys gradually turned pale, Perserk roughly pulled me into my arms and held me.
A soft sensation was transmitted to his face, and only comfort remained, as if the coldly hardened anger flew away in an instant.
“Calm down, Davy.”
“…”
After being silently comforted by her for a long time, I closed my eyes and thought of all sorts of things in my head.
Odin, my wizard master, once said this to me.
Because he is so smart and has a lot of thoughts, sometimes he can get into trouble.
I’ve already made several hypotheses based on D’Cent’s words, and I’ve repeatedly overturned them.
In the end, it was like I made a trap myself and tied myself to it.
“Whoa… Let’s calm down.”
If the opponent is a brainy guy, this one needs to be as cold-headed and meticulously analyzed as he is.
Conversely, sometimes it is necessary to show that a bold approach works.
“Varis. For the time being, go with Meramont.”
When I beckoned to him, Meramond slowly approached me and stood beside him as if he had waited.
“Take over Meramont’s command.”
[Avenger Squadron Leader Meramont Order Takeover Completed.]
As a greedy guy at the head, he calls himself the leader even though he has Annabelle, who is a senior.
“For the time being, protect Baris.”
[Command takeover complete.]
With those words, the guy’s body twisted once and changed into a cute girl wearing a little maid’s outfit.
“Search for a suitable target. We will keep it as it is. Feedback is appreciated.”
“Uh huh?”
When the cute girl looked up at him with an expressionless expression and said something, it seemed that Baris was quite embarrassed.
“It’s okay. No, more than that, brother. What the hell is going on? Please tell me too.”
“Never mind you. My brother will take care of it.”
Varys’ body stiffened at my words.
Then he lowered his head and asked quietly.
“If I ask, you won’t answer.”
“…”
“Brother is always like that. I’m not trustworthy in your brother’s eyes.”
“Varys.”
I reached out and tried to grab him, but he knocked my hand away.
“I want to think for a while. Brother.”
The bitter-looking back of Varys looked exhausted.
Seeing that, I tried to approach him, but Perserk grabbed my arm and shook his head.
“Nothing you say now won’t help him. Let’s talk about it later.”
I didn’t say anything to her.
* * *
“So. You collided with the Illuminati?”
“Do you know anything about the Illuminati?”
“I can’t say anything because I’ve never seen it myself, but I’ve heard rumors that Illina and her child awakened in Caldiras when they were young and wandered around the continent.”
It was a quiet rumor that spread secretly among the imperial family, royalty, and upper nobles.
It is said that an organization called the Illuminati is hiding in the root of the world and controlling the entire world.
“It’s a conspiracy theory.”
I frowned, ignoring Lyne, who was playing with my hand without saying a word.
“That means it was true.”
“For what they say to be true, it’s not enough that at least one or two countries are entangled in it. Many countries are probably playing into their hands.”
After hearing her words, I knew that the situation was more serious than I thought.
If this was true, it wasn’t just a matter of the Lastwisp Knights.
“It’s only natural that Illina was surprised.”
I shook my head at Perserk’s murmur.
They have obtained and used not only their own power, but also the few strangers who are currently appearing on the continent.
“What is their purpose?”
“If you know that, they can’t be a very secretive group. They are simply known as the dark hand that controls the world.”
It seemed difficult for her to get the right information.
Fortunately, Neltalid, the God of Harmony, who had been watching me for a while, contacted me and was doing me a favor.
“I’ll have to watch the situation. And…”
“And?”
“I’ll have to clean up all the strangers.”
They are simply people who regard this world as a game.
Not knowing the truth is an obvious result, but since each of them is a huge variable, it was difficult to leave it as it is.
“Aina.”
At my words, a dark elf dressed in black emerged from the darkness with an elf woman.
“How did you find out?”
“I found it because I saw it. Stop talking nonsense and come closer.”
At my words, she quietly approached me.
“Annabelle. Mission complete.”
“Yes. I need to organize the data, so go see the elder Golgotha.”
“Command Arguments.”
As Annabel, her long hair fluttering, disappeared, I took the paper Aina handed to me and put it on the table.
“I’m sorry for the trouble, but I think you need to move.”
“You’re moving?”
“We need to determine the location of strangers on the continent in real time.”
At my words, she was silent for a moment.
Then he looked at me with his twinkling eyes in the dark.
“sorry. I can’t follow your orders right now.”
I looked at her in silence at her unexpected reply.
” Can’t take orders?
” ”
Why
?”
“Because I think the time has come to fulfill my purpose.”
I nodded at her words.
“The timing is so ironic. okay. what do you want I’ve received a lot of things, and I can’t help but help.”
At my words, she quietly bowed her head.
“You support me. Please hand me the mithril card that symbolizes you.”
As the saint of the continent, as the lord of the Hines estate, and as the prince of Raun Kingdom.
“I don’t even want funds. All I need is your reputation and prestige. That’s all I need.”
I narrowed my eyes at her words.
“Is it hard to come back now?”
“Until I find that person… I don’t think I’ll be able to come back.
” The timing is not good,
but now is the time for me to keep my promise to her.
Without a word, I took out a mithril card from the desk and threw it to Aina, and she gently grabbed it.
“Is anyone looking for it?”
“Yes. If you… find that person. Then again, I will accept your offer and act as your informant.”
She was mine, but obviously not completely mine.
“The echo side won’t stay still.”
“That’s why I’m borrowing your prestige. Besides that. In many ways.”
“Don’t just make an accident.”
At my words, she asked shyly.
“Do you believe me?”
“Do you believe? I don’t trust anyone unless I’m an ally.”
“Then why is it that this precious thing seems to stand on me…”
“You’ve been an ally all this time, right? It will be hard to see for a while, but I think it’s the affection of the past. And to see your sister’s face and hand it over.”
At my words, she smiled bitterly.
“Thank you.”
“By the way. Who is the person you are looking for?”
At my words, she fell silent with a bitter expression.
Then, after a while, she quietly said,
“He is the person who gave me an irreplaceable favor a long time ago.” ”
Oh… ”
Thinking about it, I hadn’t heard of how she, who had been expelled from the holy ground of the Divine Tree due to the conspiracy of the Holy Tree, became a Dark Elf and lived until now. She didn’t talk about it, and I wasn’t curious either
.
” This covert step also…”
“Is that a covert step? Isn’t it just a gait?”
Her expression frowned slightly at my words.
“You’re looking for it is strange.”
“Anyway.”
“This is what I learned from the only person in the world.”
Yes?
But.
Speaking of that… Among the demons, there was one that showed exactly the same footwork but with a higher level of proficiency.
“A human?”
“Yes.”
I nodded at her words.
A human…
” go Take care of yourself.”
“The guild will dispatch someone to replace me.”
With those words, she dispersed like smoke. I
don’t know where people are, but I think I know. Because of her disappearance, the information system has already It felt like there was a fairly large hole.
