The Priest of Corruption - Chapter 180
Reasoning.
Reasoning.
Rekkles, who had a good impression, is in a relationship with Liberatorio?
I couldn’t believe the words of the dragon princess who suddenly appeared, but there was no reason not to listen at all.
“Wait.”
A white hand squeezed between me and the dragon princess. The dragon princess stepped back with a very graceful gesture. Dakia, standing in front of me, glared at the dragon princess.
“No matter what Princess Rusona said just now, I can’t just ignore it.”
Rusona Draco tapped her cheek lightly a few times and smiled.
“Silver hair and golden eyes. You are a beautiful woman, as I have heard. Seeing that you look the same as I heard from Hilden, you must be Princess Irmel of Dacia, who is betrothed to my older brother.”
Two golden eyes crossed. A subtle wrinkle formed on Dacia’s forehead.
“It’s been a long time since we broke up.”
“exactly? My brother keeps his mouth shut about that part. As I guessed, it was true that they broke off the engagement as well.”
“If you knew, I wouldn’t want you to comment on that part anymore.”
It was a bit pointed tone towards Rusona, but she nodded very coolly.
“Sure. Well, isn’t it hard to say that a man like Batis’ brother is a good man? Even if I had gotten married, I’m sure it wouldn’t have looked so good…”
“Hey!!!”
Fluttering bright yellow hair. Batis came out of the alley screaming and panting.
“Are you really going to say something useless?”
“You mean useless words…?”
Rusona tilted her head.
“It is a self-evident fact that Batis’ brother ate badly, but how is this useless? Isn’t it just like a hanryang who wants to rest over there from time to time and play here?”
“Shut up!”
“Uh huh. You talk a little more than usual.”
She smiled and glanced at Dakia.
“I know why you act like that.”
Dakia whispered to me while Rusona and Batis were bickering.
“Priest Marnak.”
“yes.”
“I absolutely hate getting entangled with that dragon prince… but I still can’t just ignore the story about Rekkles. I want to hear more details, but what do you think, Priest Marnak?”
“I feel the same way as Dakia. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with listening to it.”
Sorry Dacia, but it would have been better if Rekkles had been associated with the worshipers of evil gods. You’ll get a clue about God’s Vessel.
“Then I’ll stop the two of you first.”
Dakia gave a small nod and turned her head to look at the front again.
“The rubbish ends here. I want to hear a little more detail from the Dragon Princess.”
Upon hearing our answer, the dragon princess smiled brightly.
“As expected, unlike my older brother, you were someone who could communicate!”
“No, do you want to keep sneaking up on me? really?”
“I’m just saying what I’ve seen. Over the past few weeks, I have become very fed up with my brother’s behavior. I want to throw it away right away, but you know how to look at Hilden’s hard-working face and look after her.”
“What?!”
Dacia gave the last blow to Batis, who was flustered.
“We want to talk separately with Princess Rusona. Prince Batisse, who is there, have a good evening.”
“oh.”
After a short exclamation, Rusona nodded.
“Good. It’s a bit heavy for a street like this, so why don’t we move? Will everyone go to the place I prepared? Or can I go to the place you prepared? I like either way.”
“Let’s talk on our side of the ship. We’re still in a position where we can’t trust the Dragon Princess.”
The dragon princess had a very elegant smile.
“Very good. Do as you wish.”
“Follow me.”
As Dacia took the lead, Rusona stepped shoulder to shoulder with Dacia.
“Your silver hair is really beautiful. Is there any other way to manage it?”
“That’s…”
As the two of them walked while chatting, the other party, including me, quickly followed after Dakia.
“No really! You’re leaving me like this?! Rusona! no brother!!! for a moment!!!”
***
Rusona has been talking to me and others in a friendly way all the way to the Wet Swallow. Seeing her so easy-going appearance, I briefly doubted whether this dragon princess was really a princess, but after all, the dragon prince, Batis, didn’t feel the dignity or dignity of a prince.
Perhaps that’s because the dragon kingdom’s way of teaching was so free-spirited. The king will continue to be the Demon Dragon King anyway.
“How beautiful this girl is! It can be said that it is a beauty that will never be seen again in this world!!!”
‘Kill!!!’
Her mother, caught and lifted up by Rusona, struggled and threatened to kill her if she didn’t let go immediately, but naturally, her voice did not reach Rusona.
“How can I be like such a beautiful doll? The more I look at it, the more beautiful it is, and I am amazed!”
“How would you like to let go?”
When I tricked her into rhyming, Rusona smiled bitterly and quickly let her mother go.
“I’m sorry. I was rude for a while because I couldn’t come to my senses when I saw something pretty and beautiful.”
‘killing!!!’
Mother, who was lying on the floor, held out her middle fingers with both hands along with a gourd of swear words that she dared not say, then ran away and disappeared into the cabin.
He probably went in to make sure that Jamel, who entered earlier, didn’t snatch gold coins out of his pocket.
– Heir!!! Are you here!!! This Tergio! I risked my life to protect this water swallow!
Tergio, our metal knight, warmly greeted me as always. On top of his head, as usual, he had a large rat stroom.
Rusona looked at Terzio and her eyes twinkled.
“There are many truly wonderful and beautiful people in your company. A gold man with a huge mouse on his head. So much fun! Are there many more strange things than this in that cabin? Is it okay to look forward to it?”
“This is it. There will be no more surprises.”
Rusona nodded with a sullen expression.
“exactly? What a pity.”
“Let’s go inside.”
“Okay.”
I smiled at Batis, who entered after Rusona.
“I believe that Prince Batis will also keep his promise.”
Batis was about to shoot at me, but soon realized the promise he had made with us and lowered his head.
“…I get it.”
Rusona and we left him behind, but he followed us faster than anyone else and clung very pitifully. I’ll be sure to stay quiet, so please take me with you just once.
To be honest, I had no desire to take him with me, but seeing a grown man begging in the middle of the street was actually a great embarrassment. It can draw too much attention unnecessarily.
Even if I left it anyway, I had no choice but to allow it because it was going to follow me to the end.
Fortunately, Batis, who got permission, followed us very quietly as promised.
“Huh.”
The moment I was about to enter the cabin for the last time. A familiar snort was heard.
“The Dragon Princess and the Dragon Prince. Bringing them both! Come! Wake up and surprise! surprise! You were surprised!”
“ah.”
I forgot. Pearly was in this boat. Her goal is to kill the Demon Dragon King. It was a story that the resentment might even reach the children of the Demon Dragon King.
I glanced in the direction of the cabin the two of them had entered before opening my mouth.
“Are you angry?”
“fury? fury?”
Pearly playfully inflated her cheeks.
“of course! of course! mad! If it weren’t for the two of them, I could have stolen the bowl of God as soon as it was made! They ruined everything! I’m mad! very! very!”
“You know very well that I’m not asking that.”
“Hi-Hi.”
Pearly laughed bashfully, jumped up to me, and tapped me on the shoulder.
“are you okay! are you okay! I’m not interested in them! Even if I killed them anyway, the Demon Dragon King wouldn’t even raise an eyebrow! So feel free to talk! Just tell me what you were talking about later!”
“Why don’t you just listen to it over and over and say you’re my colleague and listen with me next to you?”
She answered right away without a second thought.
“no! When I look at their faces, I hate seeing the face of the Demon Dragon King! I hate it so much! Hi-Hi! I’ll be working on another doll, so call me when you’re done talking!”
After saying that, Pearly went into her room. Receiving confirmation from Pearly that I wouldn’t cause an accident, I quickly moved to the room where the others were waiting.
***
In the room, only Dacia Giselle, the dragon prince, and the dragon princess sat in a circle, except for Jamel and her mother, who left to save money.
The Dragon Princess smiled and looked around the inside of the ship, wondering what was so enjoyable.
“It is really strange and fun. You mean this is inside the ship?”
“Is this your first time on a boat?”
Rusona nodded happily.
“Don’t I have strong wings to fly? So there was no need to travel by boat.”
“Dragon Princess. I want you to get to the main point soon.”
It was Dakia who boldly stopped talking. To her point, Rusona readily replied.
“Sure. So what we want to say is…”
“That guy named Rekkles is related to the worshipers of evil gods. This one thing is absolutely true. really.”
Batis, who declared firmly, was very serious, unlike before. Rusona put her head in trouble.
“ha. Brother. You didn’t promise to stay quiet with me.”
“Your way of speaking goes round and round. Also, after spending a year in useless rhetoric, they’ll say something blunt about Rekkles being related to the worshipers of evil spirits.”
Rusona glanced at Dacia and lashed out at her brother.
“I heard from Hilden that the Princess of Dacia and Rekkles have a pretty close relationship… but it’s a foolish choice to bring up the subject in a way that makes the listener uncomfortable. There are plenty of ways to talk nice and nice.”
“It’s obvious. Dacia is being tricked by that guy named Rekkles. It’s like being played by that guy named Marnac…”
In an instant, white ice gathered in front of Batis’ eyes. It took the form of a sharp awl and aimed precisely at Batis’ eyes.
“The mouth.”
Dacia glared at Batis with her golden eyes twitching.
“If you make fun of me one more time, I won’t stand still. Keep that in mind.”
“Oh no. That’s not what I meant…”
“I don’t want to hear that.”
Batis was at a loss for what to do with Dacia’s clear hostility, and his shoulders drooped. Even though her brother was threatened, Rusona only glanced at the ice with twinkling eyes.
“Hoo. To say that a wizard implements magic without spells in the ancient language… It’s amazing.”
The ice disappeared as quickly as it had appeared. Dacia said to Rusona.
“I want to hear about why Rekkles is related to the worshipers of evil gods. Seeing that the princess is so sure, is there any solid evidence?”
“Actually, there is no evidence. Rekkles was a very meticulous person. Instead, if you listen to my story from now on, Princess Dacia will fully understand why I can be so sure.”
Rusona hmmmmmmmmmmed her voice and went on.
“As everyone knows, Rekkles is a merchant who has contracted with the imperial family. In addition, he is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one. It can be said that he is a resourceful man who came to this capital without possessions and created one of the best guilds in the empire in just ten years.”
The corner of the dragon princess’s mouth curved and a smile that could not be erased was drawn.
“My doubts started there. From whether the achievements he has made are possible with his individual strength. Think about it. Do you really think it would be possible for an outsider from the Northern Kingdom to defeat the deep-rooted merchants of the Northern Empire in just over ten years?”
Certainly, Rusona’s suspicions were reasonable. How the hell is that even possible?
“But didn’t he somehow make it?”
“exactly. he did it I mean, it’s like a miracle. So I dug into the driving force behind his success. Then, some very interesting things popped up. One day, he was suddenly selected as a fisherman and traded with the imperial family of the Northern Empire to increase his size.”
Dacia, who had been listening quietly, bit her lip.
“Maybe it was because I was recognized for my ability.”
“Do you really think that becoming a member of the merchant family contracting with the imperial family is possible only with your own abilities?”
Dacia didn’t answer. She must have known better. I didn’t ask the question just now because I really thought Rekkles was clean, but I probably asked it because I didn’t want to doubt it.
“There are a total of two corps that have rapidly improved in the past ten years with the imperial family on their backs. Rekkles’ top of Rekkles and Aviditas’ top of Aviditas. In the meantime, my brother and I have finally found out two things after catching and killing many worshipers of evil gods. It is that the Aviditas Merchant is associated with the worshipers of evil spirits. And…”
The dragon princess’s golden pupils split vertically and shimmered.
“It means that the Rekkles Merchant Carries most of the supplies that the Aviditas Merchant has obtained. How can I not be suspicious of this?”
“Haa, if you’re so sure…”
Dacia let out a deep sigh and said weakly.
“Why are you going out alone? As a fisherman, it would be better to cooperate directly with the Imperial Family of the Northern Empire instead of conducting an investigation like this.”
“It is very simple.”
The dragon princess smiled and threw a bomb-like remark.
“According to my guess, there is someone on the side of the imperial family who looks after the worshipers of evil gods. He’s probably the chancellor… or, at worst, the emperor of this country.”
Although it was a bomb we already knew.
