The Priest of Corruption - Chapter 49
shit.
shit.
“I’m really sorry, but it seems difficult to proceed with what you said.”
Ilech’s high-ranking official, Kantar, bowed his head in the utmost respect. Of course, the other person was not a person with such politeness.
A thick valley formed above the forehead of the three princes of the Dragon Kingdom, Batis Draco. He crossed his legs and glared at Kantar.
“Tell me again. I think I’ve heard something wrong. Or you’ve finally gone mad.”
Kantar raised his head and opened his mouth slowly.
“The request that Prince Batisse Sam told you about, to kidnap Princess Irmel of Dacia and bring her to the Dragon Kingdom, seems difficult to accomplish with Ilech’s capabilities. It would be better to find another place as soon as possible.”
bang!
Batis, who hit the poor table violently, let out a tantrum.
“Why? Huh? You did a good job last time! Why are you doing this all of a sudden? Huh?”
“Things were very different then and now.”
“What’s the difference? I pay money and you move Dakia to the Dragon Kingdom. It’s simple!”
“It’s not simple at all. Please calm down and listen to me. I will explain it step by step. Please read this.”
Kantar handed out the documents he had prepared in advance to Batis. Batis sat down and stared blankly at Kantar’s face.
“What? See me, read this, and understand it on your own? Before I get really angry, explain it quickly with that open mouth. If you don’t understand me until your tongue stops, you’ll have to crawl on the floor for the rest of your life. Keep in mind .Because I, Batis Draco, never speak twice.”
Kantar swallowed the silence alone at the intimidating attitude of asking him to explain everything from beginning to end with his own words.
“Then, from now on, we will explain why we cannot accept Batis-nim’s request. There are three main reasons.”
After rummaging through the papers, Kantar held out a piece of paper to Batis. It was a copy of the city’s entry and exit register.
“First of all, the biggest difference is that the last time Princess Irmel of Dacia visited this place, the capital Purina, she entered the capital under a disguised identity instead of using her own name, Irmel of Dacia. Princess Mel wasn’t in the capital. But this time it’s different.”
The name ‘Dachia Irmel’ was clearly written on the entry and exit register.
“As you can see, Princess Dacia is currently officially visiting the capital, Purina. It has become much more difficult to deal with secretly. Second, when we tried to kidnap Princess Dakia last time, there were not particularly outstanding people around her. But now it’s different. Right now, there are three formidable people around her.”
Kantar pulled out three sheets of paper. Each piece of paper had the names ‘Marnac’, ‘Carmen Baltas’ and ‘Sagitta Forgon’ written on it.
“First of all, ‘Black Wild Dog’ Carmen Baltas, as Prince Batis Sam knows well, is the bastard son of Sir Ansis Baltas. He is very famous in the mercenary world for this excellence. He is one of the best among mercenaries for his unique power.”
“Yes, he’s a mercenary. That’s great. It’s obvious that he’ll cooperate with us as soon as we give him some money.”
Kantar shook his head at Batis’ sarcastic remark.
“Sagittarius is famous for being upright, so he won’t give up on a request he’s already taken on for a few more pennies.”
“It must be because the money offered is not enough. If it’s money, I’ll take care of it, so contact me first.”
Had the author been listening to what he had to say? Kantar squeezed the anger welling up from the bottom of his chest.
“… Aside from Sagittarius, there is still one person left. That is the ‘Marnak’ priest. ‘Devil Butcher’ and ‘Adversary of Evil Gods’. He holds this splendid title at the same time, and he spares nothing for justice. In addition to being a person who does not deserve his reputation, his individual strength is so outstanding that it cannot be ignored. We, Ilech, have judged that this Marnak priest cannot be appeased in any way.”
“It’s better if those guys poke money from behind. This guy, too, should be contacted with a boy named Sajita.”
“I don’t think so.”
“Why? Why are you so sure?”
Kantar’s words, filled with strange assurance, created a small wrinkle on Batis’ forehead. Kantar’s mouth opened slowly and a word like a bomb came out.
“This Marnak is presumed to have reached a ‘lover’ relationship with Princess Irmel of Dacia. It is also a love relationship that already has a fairly deep physical relationship.”
“what?!”
bang!
Papers bounced up and fluttered as Batis slammed the table.
“Don’t fuck!”
Kantar bowed his head again. In my heart, I secretly enjoyed the embarrassment of the lizard prince. He squeezed the pleasure from the troubles of the three princes as much as he could and spit out the information he had gathered.
“Unfortunately, the facts we have gathered clearly support my reasoning. This man named Marnak has been walking around alone with the princess of Dacia, leaving the others separated since entering the capital. There are also several eyewitnesses who saw it. There are many without.”
“It could be that we just hung out together!”
Kantar shook his head.
“Not only that. According to our organization’s informant planted at the inn ‘Golden Duck’ where they are staying now, Princess Dacia secretly visits Marnac’s room alone at midnight. That’s every day.”
The reason Dakia sneaks into Marnak’s room every night is to see the mother of corruption, but they don’t know the truth.
“Kuk.”
Batis swallowed his silence. It was difficult. It would be very difficult if rumors spread that Dakia had another ‘friend’.
“Do you know about this?”
“For now, it’s just our organization that started an investigation in earnest.”
“You guys are shutting up. No, stop the spread of rumors as much as possible!”
The three princes of the Dragon Kingdom growled, showing their white teeth.
“If this fact spreads widely, I won’t leave you alone.”
Kantar answered in a calm voice.
“In the first place, we have no intention of spreading this fact. And I haven’t told you the third reason why we can’t accept this quest yet.”
Batis frowned and quietly sank into the chair. The attitude of telling the story to the end once and for all. Kantar continued speaking slowly.
“The last reason is ‘White Wolf’ Setian Baltas. We have obtained information that he has been in contact with the Princess of Dacia. Now that the princess disappears, Setian Baltas will also move.”
“How about that? After all, next to the princess is a boy named Carmen Baltas. Aren’t they both the same Baltas?”
“It’s different. So many things are different.”
Kantar looked into the bright yellow eyes of the three princes of the Dragon Kingdom and said clearly.
“Setian Baltas, he will move Sir Ansis Baltas, the ‘Black Wolf’. We, Ilech, do not wish to enmity Sir Ansis Baltas under any circumstances.”
“This guy or that guy or that guy’s Ansis Baltas! Ansis Baltas! No? What kind of three-year-old bastard are you guys? Why do the northerners get so annoyed at the mention of Ansis Baltas’ name? Huh?”
It wasn’t distaste, it was due respect, but if I tried to explain it to the rampaging lizard over there, he wouldn’t understand. Kantar clung to it.
‘Is this why they say that beastmen are no better than beasts? It feels like sitting down and talking to a real lizard.’
Kantar bowed deeply once again.
“I’m really sorry, but for these reasons, we can’t accept this request.”
At that polite refusal, Batis was silent. Kantar was drenched with a sense of victory that he had finally made the three stubborn bastards understand.
Hilden, the head of Ilech’s eastern branch, who had been watching Kantar’s plight behind Batis’ back, smiled quietly. It was very nice to see Kantar, who usually openly ignored himself, struggling.
‘Kantar bastard. I’m sure you’re happy that you’ve finally convinced me. But our lizard prince is more than anything you can imagine!’
And Batis Draco did not betray Hilden’s expectations. He said quietly, crossing his legs and brushing his bright yellow hair.
“good.”
“Thank you so much for understanding…”
Batis, who jumped up from his seat, took a stride and grabbed Kantar by the collar.
“Ouch!”
The bright yellow pupil that belonged to humans split vertically, revealing the power of a predator. Batis said quickly in a low voice.
“Listen carefully. From now on, I will run to the queen of this country and tell her what you guys have done. You ‘Ilech’ bastards have ‘kidnapped’ the only ‘four’ ‘daughter of the great lord’ in this country for money. The truth. Huh? Then what will happen? What do you think will happen? Wouldn’t Ansis Balthas, whom you hate so much, be reason enough to draw out his sword? Huh?”
“Well, then the three princes won’t be safe either.”
Batis laughed.
“I just have to endure embarrassing myself for a moment. Then my father will figure it out and do something about it. You know well. Huh? What kind of person is my father?”
Demon Dragon King. The only being who is both a dragon and a magician.
got on the wrong foot It was clear that this foolish prince would really run to the castle right away and tell the queen everything that happened between him and Ilech.
Kantar closed his eyes tightly and replied.
“What the hell do you want from us?”
“I’ve said it before. But I’ll tell you one more time in particular from a very kind person.”
Bright yellow scales sprouted over his skin. The force of the violent dragon suppressed everything.
“Don’t buy Dacia Irmel, take her to the Dragon Kingdom without any problems
.
”
“I’ve already been beaten by the ‘human butcher’ three times.”
“Did I keep telling you? He already knows who the devil’s worshiper is! It’s only on one occasion that he takes the stage with his weapon drawn! When we’re his opponents!”
“It’s so inconvenient not being able to use powers. This is why I hate cities where a lot of people gather.”
“How the hell does that separate us anyway?”
“That godmother must have told you about it. It was her fault that put the human butcher into the underground arena in the first place.”
It was a very clear fact that the owner of the underground arena and the woman called the godmother disapproved of them. It was also because he had arbitrarily invaded the realm of the godmother and staged a protest in order to retrieve the holy relic.
“Kiltan, as long as the head of that one-horned child is crushed by the Human Butcher, it’s impossible for us without powers to defeat the Human Butcher!”
“By the way, I had a lot of fun with that manslayer when he got on stage without a weapon.”
“Hey! Fuck you! You say that’s a horse? That human butcher is only cracking our heads?”
“Honestly, it’s not ‘us’. Anyway, each of us had something we wanted or the church ordered us to come together. Since when did we have such a sense of camaraderie with each other?”
“You bastard! Should I kill you first since there is no sense of fellowship? Then?”
“Quiet.”
The man who silenced the audience slowly opened his mouth.
“I’ll change the strategy. Since the moderate method became impossible, there would be no choice but to make a forced breakthrough. We will rob the ‘holy relic’ hidden by the godmother.”
“Does that mean you’ll allow the use of power?”
“If necessary.”
“Hee ha ha ha ha! just fine! This can be a fun bout!”
“Before the priests and the Queen’s knights move, you have to hit and run fast. Remember.”
“Okay! Got it!”
***
“Waaaaaaaa!!!”
“Human butcher!!! Let’s kill humans!!!”
“I came up without a weapon today!!! Very good!!!”
“Hey!!! I walked to you today too!!! Let’s kill humans!!! Be
sure to win!!!”
I jumped up amid cheers and landed on the arena. Then, as if I had waited, a louder cheer came out
. He was a fighter who was famous for fighting with me while putting on his face.
The redhead, who met my eyes, sent a signal with a wink on one side.
Yes, with the help of my struggling curiosity, I had already teamed up with the other gladiators.
Me and his match is not a struggle, but a show.
There was also a wonderful technique prepared with Redhead for today. Everyone will surely cheer
tremendously .
!!
With an explosion of drinking, men wrapped in black clothes poured out.
“Dakia! Find the Princess of Dacia! He’s going to be hiding somewhere here, wearing black robes!!!” A
group of people sitting in the stands reacted quickly.
“Damn it! Things get messy! We head to the place where the godmother is!!!”
What is it
? What the hell is going on?
A man in silver armor vigorously drew his sword. It was Carmen, a very familiar face. And next to him was Sagittarius, holding a white spear.
Carmen shouted so that the arena resonated,
“Illegal arena crackdown!! ! All the people of the kingdom kneel down and cooperate obediently with Her Majesty’s solemn order!!!”
