“To my father…?”

Of course, Dacia was no fool, and she fully understood what I meant by asking her to go to the Misogynist right away.

“Does Priest Marnak think my father is behind this?”

“There is a possibility, but to put it a little more accurately, rather than a micro-worker behind this incident, he is one of the people who are presumed to know the cause of the current situation. Doesn’t the Princess notice it already?”

I looked into her eyes and expressed my opinion clearly and accurately.

“Unlike the other citizens, we have never been attacked by those meaty trees since we got out of the theater and came all the way here. The princess’s father and brother had warned her a few days ago as if they knew something like this would happen. And lastly, Miso Gong specifically advised us not to eat rice. Even if you look at each separately, there are already three things that are suspicious enough. It’s to the point where I feel like an idiot who doesn’t doubt it anymore.”

After hearing my story, Dacia bit her lip and nodded.

“Let’s go see your father. Can I ask you for one thing?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Is it okay if I ask you a question first? I understand with my head, but I can’t quite understand with my heart. My father, Miso Gong, was not a person who cherished and cared for those he ruled, but he was also not a person who turned a blind eye to the pain of the local people. You weren’t the kind of person who would stand by and watch a massacre like this happen!”

angry voice. The beginning was quiet, but in the end she couldn’t completely hide her emotions. Perhaps it was because she subconsciously believed that her brother or father would not have done such a cruel thing.

I patted her on the back and smiled.

“Nothing has been confirmed yet. Calm down for now. Don’t you know? Miso Gong tried to prevent this incident as much as possible, but may have failed due to lack of strength.”

After catching her breath, Dakia looked me in the eyes and answered.

“Priest Marnak knows better that the probability is low. Now that I’ve come, I know. My father, at best, may be collaborating with the worshipers of the evil god who did this, if he is at least bystander. Oppa… honestly, I still don’t know what he’s thinking.”

“Both of you tried to somehow keep the princess from getting involved in this incident, so at least the two of you cherish the princess…” “

That’s even more disgusting.”

Uncharacteristically for her, Dacia cut me off sharply and gritted her teeth.

“Do you keep only your flesh and blood and ignore the people of this land? That’s not Irmel. For whatever reason, as long as I stood by the blood of the people, it is as if I trampled on the name of Irmel, which I have always been proud of since I was born and grew up.”

Taking a short breath, she looked at me with very cold, sunken eyes.

“I’m leaving right away.”

It seemed that Dakia was prepared to cut down even her father in some cases. I silently nodded.

“I’ll take Jamel with me on the way. Since I told you not to eat, Jamel is sure to be fine.”

“yes.”

Although he usually looked like an idiot, according to his mother’s evaluation, Jamel was also a worthy worshiper of an evil god, and he had plenty of fighting power.

After making our decision, we quickly moved our feet and headed straight to the temporary restaurant.

fallen citizens. As we approached the food court, more and more people lost consciousness and fell to the floor.

Fortunately, strange signs have not yet been found on their bodies, or new fleshy trees have sprouted and are not attacking them.

So, before such a misfortune happened, I had to go to the Miso Gong sooner.

“excuse me. Jamel is over there.”

Where Dakia extended her finger and pointed, a small Jamel was busily teasing herself with her orange hair waving.

What she was doing now was very simple.

It is to turn the head slightly so that citizens who have fallen with their noses in the food tray can breathe. I finally returned the last citizen’s head and called Jamel, who was wiping the sweat from his forehead with a very proud expression.

“Jamel!”

“oh! Priest Marnak!!!”

She sprinted towards us and smiled broadly.

“I thought you two wouldn’t have collapsed! I was really in trouble! After finishing the last meal, we sat down and started eating with our food service staff. Oh, I didn’t eat anything, just as Priest Marnak told me in advance! Anyway, everyone is eating one or two bites, but everyone around you is knocking down one after another! I was really surprised…”

The explanation poured out like a waterfall. If she didn’t stop talking here and left her alone, she’d be in the mood to talk all day, so I spoke to her quickly.

“We’ll hear more about it later, when the situation is more relaxed. Now I have a place to go. Please follow me.”

“yes!”

Jamel joined us without hesitation.

“By the way, have you seen Sagitta or Carmen Tergio?”

“I think he hasn’t come back yet because he was standing guard in the outskirts.”

“What do people who cross the border eat?”

“I know you brought something like beef jerky! I’m just trying to get a quick meal!”

Could it be that the only thing that Miso Gong warned us about was the meal they prepared? Or is it all the food stored here?

As of now, we do not know the answer. Rather than going to find Carmen or Sagitta, who don’t know where they are, going to the Miss Gong right away was much shorter and the target was clearer.

It’s a situation where you can’t help but hope that the two are safe. I was strangely annoyed at the situation that was constantly given to me like this one-sidedly. Seriously, it was very annoying.

I said quickly after seeing Dacia and Jamel.

“Once we start again. There are not just one or two places where you need to use your hands right away.”

We left the temporary food court and moved towards Beatus’s prison, where the micro-workers live. Jamel glanced at me and asked very carefully.

“But where are we going now?”

“I’m going to Miss Gong.”

“yes?! Are you a misogynist? That smile ball I know, right? Ruler of this city! Is that person the culprit in this case?!”

“I don’t know that yet. I’ll give you a detailed explanation later, so let’s focus on moving as quickly as possible.”

“yes!!!”

At the same time as Jamel’s powerful answer, a voice followed.

“Everyone please go away.”

old and middle-aged. A stout man in between. He was standing in the middle of the road, his thick palm resting on the hilt of his sword, looking at us.

Dressed in pure white armor, the confidant of the Smile Worker, Sir Dougleck Martin, greeted us with a more confident attitude than anyone else. He looked at Dakia, not me, and slowly opened his mouth.

“Your lord said that he was a little busy and that he would postpone the dinner he had promised for today.”

Dacia glared at Dougleg and spat out words quickly.

“So what? I need to meet my father right now and hear from him what the hell he’s up to. Or will Sir Martin tell us the truth with his own mouth.”

Dougleck shook his head and replied.

“I don’t have anything to explain to the princess. I just came to inform you both that dinner has been cancelled. And Mr. Misogong is very busy right now, so he doesn’t intend to meet anyone. So please go back the way you two came.”

Dacia’s golden eyes shone with clear anger.

“Dougleck Martin!!! Unless you have a story to explain to me! Get out of the way right now!!! As Irmel, I have the right to know the truth of what is happening over Beatus! Even at that angry shout

, the old knight did not budge. He just slowly drew the sword from his waist.

“Since my lord told me not to let anyone touch him, I can’t listen to the Dacia girl. And…”

Huung.

“Dacia!!!”

I quickly reached out and pulled Dacia. Silver metal shimmered over the spot where Dacia’s neck had been.

Dakia looked at the old knight in front of her eyes with the most astonishment. I said as I let go of her in my arms.

“I don’t think I can avoid the battle.”

Dougleck Martin. The author thrust the sword at Dakia’s neck without hesitation. Whether or not it was a judgment considering my reaction speed, at least from my point of view, his sword did not contain a single hesitation.

‘killing!!!’

My mother had been warning me that I could no longer feel the man’s fingers. Like the monster named Adora I met at the theater. That Douglek Martin was also a monster who was hiding his identity.

As a result, the suspicion towards Miso Gong became a reality. Even in its worst form.

“Dacia. It seems like the worst thing that can happen has happened.”

Dacia didn’t answer me. She was already licking her lips incessantly and spitting out ancient words.

Douggle Martin said with a chuckle.

“You hated using magic so much that you became a wizard before you knew it. But…”

Quaang!

The old knight, who had taken his seat, rushed towards Dakia.

“Calling a spell at this interval is like begging to be killed! Lady Gong!!!”

Why hey hey hey!!!

A butcher roared from the back of my hand. I swung the butcher as it was and cut off Douglek’s sword that was attacking Dakia.

Caang!!!

The blade of the sword, which collided with the spinning Immortalium saw blade, was gnawed away. Douglek gently moved his sword to minimize the damage. He smiled and moved quickly.

“Are you saying there was a corner to believe in?”

He moved his feet very gently, as if he were not wearing armor, and penetrated the gap.

A vivid dark green light emanated from my body. My body, amplified along the Gates of Corruption, unrelentingly bent the Butcher’s trajectory and headed for Douglek’s sword.

Despite the unexpected attack, he did not waver and dealt with it very skillfully.

Caang!!!

Dougleck swung his idle fist and struck the butcher in the side with precision. Intended to twist the Butcher’s trajectory instead of colliding head-on with the Immortalium saw blade. And that intent twisted my attack precisely.

“Haap!”

I let go of the butcher and stretched out my feet without any hesitation in dealing with that skill. The whip-like foot was precisely driven into Dougleck’s side.

Kwaaang!!!

A kick amplified to its limit with the Gate of Corruption. Unable to overcome the shock, the old knight’s body bounced off.

“Dougleck!!!”

Dakia’s magic was completed with a sharp voice.

A bright blue thunderbolt rode through Dacia’s fingertips and moved towards Dougleck’s body. As the thunderbolt tore through the knight’s armor, the acrid smell of burning salt spread out.

“Did you kill him?”

Dacia shook her head.

“I wouldn’t have died. I deliberately controlled the power. I’m just trying to neutralize it. Still, I won’t be able to wake up for a while…”

A rustle.

The old knight, who was scorched here and there, slowly raised his body. He looked at Dacia and opened his mouth.

“The princess keeps calling me by my first name, but I’m still a knight of Miss Carlto Irmel.”

Clumps of flesh began to swell and overflow from the cracks in the scorched armor. He spoke clearly in a voice that contained a grotesque echo in the middle of the change.
