The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant - Chapter 177

Episode 177

[Cruck… Cruck…]

[Cruck…]

Casa Rosada, the red building in Plaza de Mayo, which should have been the president’s office, has been turned into a strange castle.

Corpses, unknown whether they were still alive or not, were stuck to the castle walls, making strange crying noises.

Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

The castle bridge came down over the moat that wasn’t there before, and when they passed through the fort gate, the scenery there was even more terrible.

“…It’s getting more and more ghastly.”

People rushed around the carriage, each holding an old bucket above their heads, as if begging.

There was a large well in the middle of the castle, food lined up on a vending machine, and even a building with a large furnace reminiscent of a blacksmith shop.

It looked like a movie set and nothing looked good.

The dark appearance and old clothes looked as if they had been tumbled down a gutter.

Even though the store clearly had food on display, none of them looked full.

“What are those people?”

“You are asking the obvious. “They are the residents of the castle.”

“citizen?”

“yes. As far as we know, Namgung’s castle also receives people… It’s the same thing.”

Namgung sneered at Perez’s words.

“To me, they look like slaves on the verge of death.”

“That’s too much praise.”

In response to Perez’s answer, Namgung said no more. This was because his sharp fangs that appeared when he laughed showed that he was not human either.

‘What’s important is whether the author is someone who was given powers by Carlos… or whether he was created like that coachman.’

At a glance, the driver and the invisible horse pulling the carriage were clearly created using magic.

The problem is that if Teres was created through magic rather than as a human, Carlos’s abilities as a magician can be said to be superior to Jin Wei’s alchemy.

‘Even Jin Wei, the revealer, took a long time to create a golem through alchemy.’

However, even such a golem only followed the basic orders of the magician and did not have a will.

‘It’s not a puppet master, much less a hypnotist… I don’t think any of the four reapers have powers similar to Gwangwol’s…’

Namgung continued to infer the identity of the guy even as he reached the main castle. did.

No, in the first place, Carlos was not a prominent person in his past life, so rather than judging him, it would be correct to say that we are looking for the Shinigami who gave him strength.

“Im here.”

While Namgung was lost in thought, the carriage stopped in front of the castle gate and Perez opened the door and spoke to him.

Ding ding ding ding-!!

As he got out of the carriage, he heard a bell ring. Knights and soldiers in armor rushed at once and made a path on either side of him.

chuck-!!

The soldiers crossed their spears to create a path, and the knights drew their swords and raised them above their chests.

“….”

Namgung ignored them and entered the castle, as if he didn’t want to bother responding to the joke-like appearance.

“I was waiting. “I never thought you would come visit me like this… I’m so happy.”

A man walking down the stairs of the hall wearing a thick cloak welcomed Namgung with open arms.

“Do you know me?”

“How could you not know? He is a hero who saved humanity. “How many people were able to survive thanks to you.”

“I know. Now I feel a little regret. “I didn’t know that recycling bags also contained general waste.”

“Haha, it would be a good idea to get a butler to help with the recycling. Please pick one on your way back.”

The man laughed, pointing to the soldiers standing in line.

“Are you Carlos? “I heard that it gives qualifications to those who don’t have qualifications.”

“It’s similar. But you’re missing one thing. I’m not giving you qualities that don’t exist. “It helps those who have the qualifications to improve more easily and quickly in the first place.”

“By using the blood of blood relatives?”

“All I use is just one drop. “If you give that one drop, that person also gains strength, so it’s not like killing two birds with one stone.”

“Who gave that blood? “What happened now?”

“Hmm, it’s not right to leave guests standing like this. What is Perez doing? “Please take Namgung here.”

“All right. Please come this way.

At Carlos’ order, Perez guided Namgung.

Namgung followed him, wondering how much more terrible there was inside.

* * *

“Let’s eat.”

However, contrary to Namgung’s expectations, Carlos’s room, with its huge round table, was more ordinary than expected.

There was nothing special about it other than a thick book lying next to the desk.

“This is a place where the leaders of each clan gather and hold meetings. “We pursue equality.”

“I’ve seen this somewhere before.”

Namgoong sat down on the chair, pushing the teacup Carlos gave him back to him.

“It is a pleasure to receive a hero of humanity, but… there must be a reason why he came here himself. “Let’s take a listen.”

Carlos’ expression hardened for a moment, but he soon smiled and spoke to Namgung.

“A death occurred within the tower of Wu. That’s why people are feeling anxious. “After investigating, I found out it was from your side.”

“As expected… I thought you would come because of that.”

Carlos nodded and said, as if he wasn’t really surprised.

“We were in a difficult situation because of them. In fact, I should have sent a dispatch to the Union first, but since I was dealing with matters within the castle, I had to take a big step forward.”

He snapped his fingers and Perez came in holding something.

“If you hand over those who escaped to the tower, we will deal with them quietly. And what is the reward? How about giving this to the surprised residents of the fortress?”

Takak-

The box that Perez brought was full of runes.

“It’s more than just low-level stuff. “You know better than anyone that using just one or two will be a huge help in surviving the upcoming carnival.”

Carlos twitched his eyebrows and said to Namgung.

“Where did you get this?”

“No matter how global the union is, autonomy cannot be violated. “It is difficult to reveal trade secrets.”

Kwaang-!!!

Namgoong slammed the table.

“Trade secret? You’re talking nonsense. Do you think I don’t know what you are doing in Sao Paulo? “They were using children in the slums to mine runes!”

“You mean the black molar… I feel sorry for you. “Managing too many fiefdoms was a problem because it was left up to the lords.”

“…what?”

“It seems that Prince Pimenta, who ruled Brazil, became a little greedy when he joined [Moff]. “I’ve told you over and over again not to be harsh on children, but… tsk tsk.”

Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr….

The door opened and several people came in, pulling a cart.

“I have sufficiently reprimanded him. So, stop being angry.”

“…You crazy bastard.”

Namgung muttered, glaring at Carlos as if he were going to kill him at any moment.

What was in the cart was none other than the body of President Pimenta, cut into pieces.

“Not following the master’s orders is high treason. “For someone like that, cruelty is the answer.”

“Who are you?”

“What do you mean?”

“There’s no way you could have done something like this. “Who is that guy behind you?”

“What are you saying? “I am the lord of the Castle of Blood and the king who rules over the lords.”

“I mean, who gave him the damn power to become that king?”

Kwaaak-!!!

Namgung grabbed Carlos by the collar and shouted harshly.

“Lord Carlos…!!”

Perez, who was pulling a cart, tried to throw himself away.

But Carlos stretched out his hand and waved it as if to ask him to stop.

“That’s not all the runes I have to offer. There are countless runes stored within the castle’s treasury. If you wish, you can take as many as the number of citizens in the tower. No, we can provide it for the talented people of the alliance.”

“Just answer the question.”

“There is no one above me.”

“okay? “So that means you are the culprit.”

Suddenly-.

At that moment, Namgung’s sword moved.

No one noticed the sword being pulled from its scabbard.

Like a mannequin, Perez just stood there and Carlos’ neck fell onto the broken table.

“Then die.”

Namgung spoke to his head that had fallen on the floor.

“Ca Carlo… S….”

Perez belatedly ran toward the fallen man, but Namgung’s sword split his body in an instant.

[That’s barbaric. Have you always done things this way? To pull out all the right weapons… History tells us that the era of power will eventually come to an end.]

That was then.

Carlos’ severed head bounced on the floor like a ball and moved to where the body was.

Tsuzu… Tsuzu…. As

soon as the severed head was attached to the neck, the wound healed in an instant.

He moved his head from side to side with both hands, nodded to see if he was okay.

“Look at this? Even if your head is cut off, you won’t die? “This guy was a real monster.”

“I never said I was human.”

Carlos responded with a grin towards Namgung.

“You… what are you?”

Namgung glanced at the torn apart body of Perez.

Although he looked like a human, his mutilated body had nothing inside, like a wooden doll.

“Looking at it, it doesn’t look like he’s the god of death. “What does he do that allows him to use druid techniques and create golems, the domain of alchemy?”

“Haha, a toy like that is a golem. It would be too much to give it such a great name.”

He actually waved his hand at Namgung’s words.

However, for Namgung, who knew the level of the golem created through Jinwei’s alchemy, Carlos’ words calling Perez, who was so sophisticated that he could be considered a human being, a toy were even more surprising.

“Do you want to see a real golem?”

“no. take no interest.”

“Hmm… you’ll regret it.”

“You’re going to die here anyway, so you have nothing to regret.”

Sssssssssss—!!

At that moment, spirit soldiers were summoned behind Namgung.

“I don’t talk to people who don’t look human.”

Paaah-!!

The soul soldiers all rushed towards him.
