The Priest of Corruption - Chapter 217
question.
Doubt
Quaang!!!
He proceeded like a beam of light, destroying all the obstacles that stood in his way.
The emperor’s escort, Soldos Garandibald, received a red signal that someone threatened the emperor’s prison body, and ran in a straight line toward the imperial palace.
When he saw the entrance to the imperial palace in the distance, he drew in his breath for a moment and then shouted harshly with a booming voice.
“Open the door! right now!!!”
However, before the sound reached the ears of the gatekeepers of the imperial palace and they could comprehend the meaning of the sentence by combining the words they heard, the master holding the stick had already arrived at the gate of the imperial palace.
There was no reason to hesitate even for a moment.
He did not expect the gatekeepers to react at his own pace from the start. Soldos threw the stick, which had already been pulled tight, without hesitation.
Kwaaang!!!!
Exquisite power control. The huge main gate of the imperial palace, which the criminal dared not open alone, opened as easily as any other house door, as soon as he hit his rod.
“What?!”
Before the gatekeepers’ brains could even analyze the meaning of the sentence they had just heard, they were shocked to see the door suddenly open. Whether they were surprised or not, Soldos was already gone.
He ran down the familiar road inside the imperial palace and headed in the direction indicated by the call that had called him.
End of short sprint. The place he reached at the end was the emperor’s bedroom.
Wow Jangchang!
Soldos, who broke through the bedroom window without hesitation, had no choice but to sit down after examining the surroundings.
“What is this…”
“Soldos, are you here?”
The Emperor of the Northern Empire put the papers he was reading on the bedside table and smiled. Soon, he clicked his tongue briefly as he saw the scene Soldos had staged.
“You broke the window like that, so the cleaning maid must have a hard time.”
“your majesty!!!”
Soldos rose from his seat again and approached his lord.
In fact, originally, at this time, the emperor should have been in the middle of his office in his office. Not when you’re in the bedroom like this.
“Your Majesty, is Okche really okay?”
“It seems that one of the carefree guards even called you.”
“What the hell happened?”
“There was a small explosion in the office.”
“explosion?!”
What kind of place is the emperor’s office? The place where the emperor stayed the longest during the day was a place that was as strictly managed as the emperor’s bedroom.
Soldos calmly scanned the lord’s jade body while thinking.
The emperor’s complexion was correct as usual. If there was a serious injury there, others would have been crowded around the emperor. Soldos, who was barely relieved, let out a big sigh of relief.
“Whoa…”
He pulled a nearby chair and sat down right next to the emperor’s bed.
“Was it a big explosion?”
“No. It was just a flash of an unknown light for a moment. It didn’t hurt me or anything in the office.”
“I am very fortunate.”
Before he arrived, the magicians and priests working in the imperial palace would have already made a fuss to check the emperor’s condition, and the royal guards were in the midst of searching for the culprit of the incident.
The old emperor looked like a young man on the outside, but smiled benevolently at the master who actually lived several decades older than himself.
“By the way, seeing that you took longer than usual to arrive, you must have been working outside the palace.”
“Yes… Ah!”
Only then did Soldos remember the fact that he had left the Dragon Princess and the Dragon Prince behind with an unknown intruder.
“your majesty. I…”
“Leave me alone.”
“yes?”
The Emperor was still smiling benignly. Soldos thought.
He had never guessed what he was thinking when his lord had been laughing like that ever since he was a boy.
Really not one.
“But if they get seriously hurt, it’ll be a diplomatic problem…”
“The things you’re worried about won’t happen.”
A word to determine. Did His Majesty really know what was going on and say that to me?
“I’m out of hand, so you should read these documents and sort them out for me. Short and concise.”
“yes.”
Soldos quenched the flames of doubt that simmered in his heart as he scanned the papers handed over with his eyes.
Maybe all of this. No, even if not all of them, the flames of doubt that the explosion in the office might have been His Majesty’s own play to bring her in.
***
Perfect!
Ferris, the red-haired woman, snapped her fingers, and another giant dark purple slime pierced the floor and jumped out in front of Batis.
“What what!!!”
Bright yellow scales covered parts of his body, and sharp claws protruded. Batis scratched the giant slime without hesitation, but it failed to inflict any significant damage on the bouncy, gelatinous body.
“You play with me! Come on! hurry!”
The two gigantic slimes persistently bit on Rusona and Batis. Those slimes also didn’t deal a meaningful blow to the two dragons, but judging from the current situation, it seemed that they were bred for that purpose in the first place.
I quietly took out the blue sword Despair that Master had given me.
He exchanged glances with Rusona, who was splitting the sticky slime. No words were needed.
All I had to do was subdue the woman who appeared to be the minister of two gelatinous monsters.
‘Say hat!’
Cries to quickly cut that woman into three pieces and go somewhere else to look around.
However, in order to find the whereabouts of the missing dragon blood, it was better to subdue it rather than kill it, so it would be right to subdue it first.
Even as I approached, the woman lay on a chair that was roughly attached and giggled as she watched the younger brother and sister struggling.
“Seeing those two dragons use dragons, I can only laugh. watch it with you Are they trying to cut through a chunk of jelly with their fingernails?”
Ferris. She invited me to play with her and showed no hostility towards me. It was as if they were calling out to play together.
There’s no way the two dragons will be attacked by slime anyway, so it’s better to dig up information when you open your mouth rather than swinging a sword right away.
“How did you do the dragon blood?”
“That lizard blood has many uses here and there, so I used it for good. Look at that!”
Where she pointed her finger was Rsona, covered in slime from slicing through the slime.
“If I painted that and sold it, wouldn’t it sell pretty well? Of course, the genre is adult! It’s embarrassing to even think of being a dragon princess being raped by a slime. Just like that, the body of the dragon princess is erotic! Do you think so too?”
“Where are you from?”
A red-haired woman, who was chewing on cookies from unknown sources, glanced up at me while lying on her back.
“I didn’t see it that way, but you are very businesslike.”
“Where are you from?”
“You even agree with my words, huh? Aren’t you supposed to help me so that I can talk happily alone? That way I can tell where I belong by mistake!”
“I will ask you one last time. Where do you belong?”
“I’m freelance…”
At first, it would be about one arm. I quickly swung my sword in the narrow gap while handing over a conversation. The lying woman reacted quickly.
She bounced her body very flexibly, bending her body to an angle that shouldn’t have been bent, avoiding my sword strike. Soon, he stepped back with a graceful movement, like a spring that had been pressed down to its fullest.
Snacks I hadn’t taken care of were scattered all over the floor.
‘killing!’
On the way, my mother whispered to me to buy something similar to that.
“Are you so relentless? How are you going to kill a person right away?!”
“I was just going to cut off my arm.”
“People usually die when their arms are cut off!”
Ferris shook his body, pretending to be frightened. That was an exaggerated performance for anyone to see.
I lowered my stance and spoke calmly.
“After the arm, I will cut off the leg. Let me know when your limbs are still intact. Where do you belong?”
“me? I belong to give money!”
I stared at her quietly.
“You’re well aware that that’s not the answer I’m looking for, right?”
“If I talk softly, who will hire me next? This is why short-term contract jobs are so sad.”
Ferris, who shook his head to himself and said, ‘Hmmmm.’, pointed at me behind my back.
“Really, can’t I look at that a little longer and argue with you? Those two lizards can actually wipe out that amount of slime in an instant if they really work hard, and they’re doing that! Do you know why?”
No matter how you look at it, it was obvious that if we talked further here, we would only spit out meaningless words. so i moved
I jump out of my seat and swing my sword. As I drew a blue line over the air, Ferris’s eyes rolled and rolled in the slow time, accurately grasping the sword’s trajectory.
As if to prove that she had already dodged my sword once was no fluke, she flexibly bent her body to dodge another sword strike.
“Will they teach me why they don’t clean up that slime quickly? That’s because in order to wipe out that level of slime in one blow, you have no choice but to do too much destruction!”
Pull the sword to change the trajectory. The woman’s red pupils narrowed and she gazed at the tip of my sword again. The mouth is constantly talking.
“Or take out the body of a large dragon! Yeah those lizards always have too much! It’s out of my way! Aww!!!”
Drops of blood spurted out. The blue sword passed by, scraping the woman’s skin. The trail that he swung to cut it off could only cut through the woman’s skin.
“Are you really obsessed with cutting off my arm first?”
licking.
The woman licked the long cut on her arm with her tongue. Drops of blood dripped from the tip of his tongue.
No questions and answers. I bounced back without stopping. with a slashing sword.
Instead of stepping back this time, the woman jumped out of her seat and jumped into my arms. A gap where you cannot swing a sword. The woman who had narrowed the distance in an instant suddenly made a big turn behind her.
At the end of her acrobatic stance, her toe, which had been resting on the ground just before, turned her body to the fullest extent, and with the power of rotation, aimed precisely at the tip of my chin.
Are you going to knock me out in one shot? The woman’s face, which was visible through the field of vision, was wearing a sullen smile.
Pak!!!
Instead of blocking, I was hit. Instead of backing away after being beaten, she held on, so her kick landed on my chin.
For ordinary people, the shock was such that the jawbone was cracked or the entire bone was crushed. But my bones weren’t just bones, they were already whole Immortalium bones.
“Kyaaak!!!”
Because of this, it was not my jawbone that was crumbled beyond use, but her toebone.
hooked
Amidst the shock of my bones ringing, I quickly changed my sword and slammed her on the shoulder. The blue blade pierced the woman’s shoulder and pierced the floor. Small teardrops formed on the woman’s red eyes.
“It hurts!”
“One more word without much chatter…”
I slightly twisted the sword on her shoulder.
“Kyaaaaaaaaa!!!”
“I’ll take this arm off.”
scream of a woman. I whispered softly as I watched the woman flop like a freshly caught live fish in pain.
“What is your affiliation?”
Ferris looked up at me with teary eyes and opened his mouth slowly.
“If you say that, you can’t re-employ…
”
A sharp scream and one arm tumbling away from the body. I mechanically thrust the sword into the woman’s opposite shoulder and smiled softly.
“What is your affiliation? you.”
