The World-Class Extra’s Walkthrough - Chapter 176

Episode 176:

Eru Port

“….”

I was hiding my face under a cape of foam.

And the warrior commander of Port Eru was looking at me with a very suspicious expression.

“Hmm, so you are ‘Schafen Seid,’ a second-level wizard who studied at the Northern Alliance’s Magic Tower?”

“…yes.”

“Hmm….”

The guard captain came aboard the Red Lightning Pirates’ pirate ship and introduced himself as ‘Golago.’

He was scratching his beard with a very cautious hand and suddenly glanced back.

The sea where I split up the falling shells and cleared them away.

Let’s take a look right there.

I narrowed my eyes.

‘Oh, I guess I saw the arm of a giant?’

And the warrior commander cleared his throat and spoke to me.

“Hmm! “I fully understand that you are a high-level wizard!”

“…?”

“Still, if we cannot verify your identity, we have no choice but to refuse entry. That’s the rule for us beast tribes and warriors.”

“….”

“I’m sorry, but I cannot allow you to enter our port of Eru. “I would like you to return the bow within 12 hours.”

The tone of voice was quite polite, but the conclusion was to get out of the way immediately.

In fact, this was already expected.

‘Right now, no one, including me, has an ID card.’

Currently, the only identity I can use is ‘Shan Aledro,’ an agent of the Revolutionary Army’s secret task force.

Handing over that ID to Golago wasn’t a very good choice.

‘…Isn’t it obvious that you will receive an excessive welcome?’

With the sudden event ‘Secret Agent Discovered’ appearing.

All the warriors in Port Eru will come out in full force and rush to trap us in the dungeon.

Of course, I have Vinokharas and the Blue Flame Knights, so I can fight against them.

That was not a good option at all in a situation where we had to find the existence of a god whose hiding place we did not know where.

‘And even if you think about it with common sense, it’s really ridiculous to come to another country and show off your secret agent ID…’ An

alternative is needed.

I thought about what to do for a while, but decided to just shamelessly create a third identity.

A wandering wizard from the North.

Schaffen Seid.

This was my new identity that I had just created.

‘Originally, people from the Northern Alliance have a lot of immigrants and criminals, so it’s very difficult to trace their identity, right?’

The Blue Flame Knights masqueraded as the Imperial Guard I was protecting.

‘Because the knights probably lack acting skills.’

It was just naturally set to Baltic nationality.

But….

‘In the current situation, there is nothing to support our identity.’

Because these were literally identities I had just created.

So I needed an excuse, and the excuse I gave Golago was a very simple one.

“No, my ID and everything were taken away by the crazy seal pirates. What should I do with it?”

“Do you create something that doesn’t exist? “Are you going to forge my ID?”

Just as Osorma Taniq and Salet Firddin stepped forward to protest.

‘…there was. ‘There was none.’

I just said I lost my ID.

Oh, you think that doesn’t make sense?

‘No, no.’

Anything can happen on that vast ocean.

The southern seas of this continent are literally a complete lawless zone.

So, it was not uncommon for merchants to have their ID cards stolen and be kidnapped.

‘It’s a situation that sailors on the dockside would feel could happen.’

I brought in that common sense.

And Osorma and Salet were strongly asserting it, raising blood vessels on their necks.

“Well, those pirates took all your ID cards away, right? “We threw all our luggage into the sea except for the useful things.”

“I’m being dragged away by the crazy seal pirates! “The Red Lightning Pirates appeared here and saved us.”

“We are like pirates, but aren’t we really grateful people?”

“So I couldn’t continue to cause trouble, so I asked them to drop me off at a nearby port. “It happened to be here at Port Eru.”

“But you treat us so inhumanely! Ah, it seems that beast tribe warriors have no such thing as ‘love for humanity’ at all, right?”

“What a pity! “It’s deplorable!”

“….”

The fact that they were knights and that their acting skills would be lacking is a retraction.

‘It looks like you have some kind of EX level theater actor card installed?’

To be honest, the setting that I was attacked by pirates and the pirates saved me was a bit unreasonable.

However, Osorma Tanik and Salet Firddin had bigger teeth than they looked.

“Please allow us to dock at the port. “On a human level.”

“I’m asking that I be able to get at least some food to fill my hungry stomach. “It was all robbed, but how many gold coins are hidden in the soles of your boots?”

The two knights, a man and a woman, excitedly talked about their choice with language that I don’t know where it came from.

“Oh, I understand! So stop talking!”

In the end, he succeeded in getting the commander to surrender.

“Then I’ll give you just three hours from now on. In the meantime, replenish all necessary supplies and set sail.”

…3 hours.

“Hey, 3 hours? “That handsome warrior is so salty.”

“Let’s do it for about 12 hours! 12 hours!”

Salet and Osorma try to negotiate there once more.

However, Golago threatened the two with a very strict, serious and solemn face.

“Then it’s just one hour.”

“to?”

“Why did it decrease further?”

“Do not attempt to negotiate with warriors in the Beast Tribe’s territory. “Under no circumstances.”

“….”

“….”

The two people were dumbfounded by the warrior commander’s heavy declaration.

‘cute.’

Actually, it’s not like I’d go that far.

I smiled and stepped forward.

“Thank you for your kindness, Commander Golago. “Then just one hour from now.”

…That’s enough.

“We will land at Port Eru briefly, get the supplies we need, and leave immediately.”

Actually, it’s not an hour, it’s 30 minutes or 15 minutes, once I get off at the port, that’s it.

‘Because the Beast Tribe will have no way of driving me out.’

I had already told Captain Whik my plan.

-Captain: When we go down to the dock, cut the cord first and leave the port as quickly as possible. And just go on your way.

-Huh? Just lose your stomach? Is that okay? Aren’t you going to get in trouble?

-Of course it must be difficult.

…Not me, but the Beast Tribe.

If the pirate ship leaves, there will be no way to kick me out, so I’m going to be in a lot of trouble.

‘It may have been up to you when I asked you to come in, but not when I asked you to leave?’

This was my perfect landing strategy.

…And another one.

‘If someone as high as a level 2 wizard appears, there will probably be one person who will react immediately.’

Level 2 wizard.

It was one of the roundabout expressions usually referring to a 6- or 7-star wizard.

‘Right now, there is one guy in Eru Port who might want to recruit such a wizard.’

The moment that guy approaches me.

From then on, my status will not be a problem.

Now I was looking ahead to that moment.

* * *

…5 tribes of beasts.

In terms of roughness, it is a country of tough warriors who can easily crush a decent mercenary force.

There could be two main reasons why they gathered together under the name ‘Beast 5 Tribes’.

That first one.

This is because it is truly a country made up of ‘five tribes’.

A tireless water buffalo.

A quick field mouse.

Self-denying snow tiger.

A wise desert snake.

And even the goat of balance.

In this way, the five tribes compete with each other but cooperate to form a union.

That is why they were the ‘Five Beast Tribes’.

These five tribes were sharing their roles by demonstrating their respective specialties and talents.

Although they bickered quite a bit, they were usually able to maintain their power just by faithfully carrying out their respective duties.

But there were exceptions.

Like right now.

“Damn it, we have to beat the buffaloes at all costs…”

‘Gener’, the general manager of Eru Port and an elder warrior of the Snow Lake tribe, was currently in deep trouble.

“Those bullheads will definitely try to repay what happened to them five years ago. In that case, we must strike first before we are attacked…!”

Young warriors from the buffalo tribe who are living and working together at this very moment.

It was none other than thinking about how to attack them.

“Hmm, isn’t there a clever idea?”

Now Genere did not intend to be a traitor to the camp.

Rather, this was a preparation for the ‘House of Representatives selection contest’, which is a long-standing tradition and governance method.

A traditional event of the Five Beast Tribes.

‘House of Representatives selection contest…’

Here was the second reason why they were not just the ‘Beast Tribe’ but the ‘Five Beast Tribes’.

The most powerful person in the Beast Tribe, a mixture of five tribes, is the ‘Great Chief’.

However, the position of this great chief is elected and decided at the ‘Senate Council’, which is made up of elders from each faction.

‘…The seats of our upper house members are decided by the lower house members.’

The structure was similar to a pyramid.

When young warriors under the age of 30 go through a selection process and take up seats in the lower council, they decide the number of upper council members… and

those upper council members decide on the warchief, the top of the pyramid.

In other words, power is formed from below.

It was natural for all five factions to covet the position of warchief.

‘We need support from below so that our Snow Tiger tribe can rise to the position of warchief.’

That is why we must be very attentive even before selecting members of the House of Representatives.

And what is the House of Representatives selection contest?

‘…an indiscriminate three-person match.’

Three people must form a team and compete against other teams to win.

In order to become the representative representative of the southeastern coastal region where the port of Eru belongs, he had to win a total of three times.

‘Especially in our region, it is said that the current warchief’s eldest son will participate in the selection competition…’ The

current warchief of the beast tribe was ‘Modrin’, a great hunter and female warrior of the mountain goat tribe.

‘If he were the son of such a woman, he must have tremendous power.’

So, in this selection competition, the key was to avoid the warriors of the mountain goat tribe as much as possible.

And beware of rival buffalo tribes.

“…There’s a lot to worry about.”

A literally bloody battle awaits.

This fight was quite dangerous.

It varied slightly depending on the judge’s discretion, but in general, it didn’t matter what method of attack was used as long as it didn’t kill the opponent.

Even if he attacked his opponent before the game, he pretended not to notice or didn’t think it was a big deal.

‘I participated in it twice when I was young, but it’s a truly terrifying test.’

Genere shook his head.

In the end, the five tribes of beasts must see blood to determine their leader.

Therefore, they were one yet five, and they were a force that could be five yet one.

They were also people who had grown explosively by using fierce methods, but were ultimately unable to break through beyond that.

“Hmm, I wonder if there is some trick….”

Genere was thinking about it over and over again.

It was then that the good news was delivered to him.

“I received a call from Brother Gener, Golago.”

“…Going to go? “What’s going on?”

“Hmm, it looks like there is a stranger who temporarily entered the port without an ID card. But I heard that the ship the strangers were on sailed away, leaving them alone?”

At first glance, this news may not seem like a big deal.

But the next moment, Genere had no choice but to jump up.

“From what I heard, it seems like there is a young wizard of about 6 stars among them. I heard that’s why you can’t treat them carelessly even if you choose them…”

“…!”

Genere wanted to laugh out loud at the mysterious idea that came to his mind.

That’s writing Daejeonsa!

‘That’s right, we’re recruiting a foreign wizard like that and presenting him as a mercenary.’

What if you hire a stranger who fights in a completely different way from the beast tribe and attack another tribe?

‘It won’t be easy for those who are only familiar with the methods of our Snow Tiger tribe to respond!’

This couldn’t have been a truly incredible trick.

Gener clenched his fists.

“Hehehe! I have to meet that friend in person! “Where are you now?”

At that time, the old warrior was laughing happily.

“…What shall we do tonight? “Who will I give joy to?”

Gilroshan on the dockside was humming.

“A bad mind and endless greed. If it disappears far, far away…”

And one thought was repeating in his head.

‘If we spread bait through the House of Representatives selection contest, will Kali Shin respond properly?’

I was thinking about the quest that had started.

“…polluted god.”

It was a quest that was like a signal announcing the fall of the gods.
