50 – Preparing for a Job (3)

Vince felt that something was wrong.

‘I was once a mercenary too?’

He couldn’t handle Mana properly, but he could imitate her.

It’s normal to be much more experienced and stronger than these fledgling adventurers….

“Let me tell you what happens when you play around with your food.”

Seina’s punch broke Vince’s ribs.

“Gagging—!”

He collapsed on the floor, unable to breathe properly, choking.

‘I’m going to die like this….’

Vince was no needlessly proud jerk.

I am willing to accept any humiliation in order to live.

He lay flat enough to kiss the floor and began crawling slowly.

Then, grab Gerard’s crotch.

“… My, please save me.”

Gerard absentmindedly withdraws his foot.

“Don’t stick to it because it gets dirty.”

“Well, I am more useful than I thought… ! If you just let me live, I can surely be of help to you!”

“Hmm.”

Gerard grabs Vince by the hair and lifts him up.

“You are not an ordinary innkeeper. Judging by the poison in the drink, it looks like they were trying to sell us out somewhere. Which organization do you belong to?”

“!”‘

Vince’s expression was stained with bewilderment.

I’m not simply asking why I was poisoned, but I’m asking a fundamental question.

‘I am not a novice adventurer… !’

This kind of thing doesn’t work on superficial sympathy.

It was more likely that he would survive by telling all the facts and being recognized for his worth.

“Well, I belong to an organization called Vince Law Carlton for information purposes. They mainly make money by preying on new adventurers, selling them into slavery, or human trafficking….”

“Trash.”

“Kill Gerard.”

Seina and Luna, who were listening, frowned.

They thought that it would be better to dispose of these scraps that could not even be recycled.

“Because I belong to Carlton. You are in a very deep-rooted organization.”

However, Gerard reached out to restrain them and continued.

“… Yes that’s right. Please help me get better I went crazy and didn’t notice that he was so noble!”

“If you save him from here, there will be another victim. What should I do?”

“I swear to the sky, Vince! It won’t happen again in the future. From now on, I will help adventurers and lead a good life.”

It was a lie that even a small child passing by wouldn’t believe.

This fact is well known to Vince.

But what can you say to live?

Of course I know you won’t believe it, but the odds of living are higher if you try something first.

“Okay, believe me.”

“Sir, thank you very much. You will be blessed….”

As Gerard let go of his hand, Barnes began to bow with a bright face.

“I will call someone to treat your wounds.”

“Yes? Is that true?!”

He even provides treatment.

Vince started revising his evaluation of Gerard again.

From ruthless cold-blooded to fledgling nerd.

‘Keuk-kuk Was it an illusion? Aren’t you dumber than I thought?’

“Before that.”

However, that thought did not last long.

“I’ll have to sign a slave contract first.”

“… Yes?”

Vince’s expression was colored with astonishment at the sound like thunder from the sky.

“hahahaha… It’s okay, you’re joking too much. I am not a slave, so a slave contract?”

“Didn’t you also sell out a lot of non-slave adventurers? I think it’s the right thing to do.”

“… Anyway, that’s a bit.”

Gerard sighed and looked at Seina next to him.

“Kill.”

“Wait a minute! Be better! I’ll do it. Ah yes Ah yo! Don’t do it!”

Gerard looked down at him coldly, as if telling him not to mess around.

He started chanting indifferently.

How long has it been?

A huge scroll appeared in the air and various provisions began to be written down.

“This slave contract contains rules that must be followed. You will become my eternal servant from now on, and you must follow any orders I give you.”

‘No… !’

Vince started reading the terms carefully in order to somehow get out of the situation.

But no matter how much you read it.

‘… Aren’t there any gaps?’

There was no escape hole.

“You are rolling your glass head.”

“Oh no! I agree!”

In the end, Vince agreed, crying and eating mustard.

Then, the giant scrolls began to gather into a single point.

A quick rush into his shoulder.

Psseuk.

The engraved seal of a slave.

Gerard opened his mouth with a satisfied face.

“In the future, depending on what you do, the slave contract may be released.”

“… Ah yes.”

Vince answered weakly with his hunched shoulders.

As a bully, he knew better than anyone else that the word was Gura.

“I know you are lying. Well, you’ll find out later, so I’ll skip this part and give you the first order.”

“Yes? Already….”

“Shut up.”

“… Yes.”

“Where were you born?”

“… Why do you suddenly ask where you were born?”

Gerard gave Vince a blow to the head.

“Answer the question.”

“… Oops! I was born on the outskirts of the city of Gruyere.”

“Do you know about the Quinias Mountains?”

“… It’s my hometown, so of course I know. Geography is also clear.”

“You mean that?”

Gerard raises his chin-rings.

Vince felt some uneasiness and hurriedly corrected his words.

“But it was so long ago that I can’t remember. I don’t know why you’re doing this, but if you’re looking for definitive information, I’ll introduce you to another expert.”

That moment.

Vince grabbed his chest with a pained face.

“Turn it off!”

I couldn’t breathe properly.

I felt someone squeeze my heart with a hand.

Gerard clicks his tongue and opens his mouth.

“I must have lied. Didn’t you read the clause properly? If you lie to me, your heart will explode and you will die.”

“!”

As soon as Vince heard that, he hurried to tell the truth.

“Keuk! I remember everything! In fact, I am well aware of it.”

Then the pain diminished like a lie.

He exhaled heavily and glared at Gerard with a resentful look.

“Eye color. Unleash your strength.”

“Sorry, sorry….”

“You will serve as a guide on our journey this time.”

“But why do you want me….”

“Because we are going to hunt Akidna.”

“—!”

Vince’s expression was stained with astonishment.

**

Archidna.

A monster with the upper body of a beauty and the lower body of a snake, it was a monster well known as a name in the original work.

Unlike other monsters, she has two powers, so she was particularly difficult to subdue.

There were not one or two people who quit the game because of this.

“Stop procrastinating and guide me quickly.”

I grabbed the hesitant Vince’s clothes and threw him forward.

Then he had a seizure and screamed.

“Well, I want to live! Be better! Do you know how many people died from Akidna!”

“Then you could die to me right here.”

“… It’s the same whether you die or die anyway, so I’d rather die by your own hands!”

‘Ha, look at this bastard.’

Vince was the only survivor to face Akidna and survive.

Is it a long name line or just luck?

It was for this reason that I accompanied him anyway.

You must know exactly where Akidna is.

“You have no idea…. How terrifying that monster is. You’ll probably be able to take care of it only when your fellow warriors come!”

“Vince. Why do you think we will die?”

“How can I defeat that monster? Seeing that he is still alive, surely no one can defeat him, right?”

He sighed.

That’s not wrong.

From his point of view, it probably sounds the same as telling him to commit suicide.

‘Should I forcefully issue an order?’

Thought so, I shook my head.

He had a slave contract, so there is also a way to forcefully command.

However, he is an important person who has to become my aide and bring information from here and there.

Rather than simply moving with orders, making them move with loyalty that comes from the heart was the way to obtain quality information in the future.

“Vince. Don’t you want revenge?”

So even if it’s annoying, I have no choice but to use this method.

“… ….”

“Achidna will be more active. Someone’s precious parents, children, even friends. There will be many more victims in the future.”

At my words, Vince’s face began to turn serious.

Yes.

I’m indirectly touching his emotional line.

Vince lost his parents to Akidna while climbing a mountain with his parents when he was young.

Vince, who became an orphan all at once, started to get on a crooked line to live from then on.

According to current information, Vince was created.

“I intend to break this cycle of evil. It is possible for me and my colleagues.”

“Right, how long are you going to live like an animal like that?”

“Trust us.”

I didn’t even ask Seina and Luna to help.

At this, Vince put on a worried expression and sighed.

“… Can you really do it? Be well.”

From noble mtl dot com

He nodded his head indifferently.

“I can’t help it…. What happens to other people is not my alpha. I wondered if you would really make it. Besides, the slave contract will end when the minister dies. It’s not a losing business….”

Saying that, he gets up and shakes his butt.

“… It won’t be easy. According to my information, I heard that he deflects most attacks.”

I know too.

Achidna is a monster with two powers.

The first is lime ability.

The second is the ability to reflect physical attacks.

That’s why I’ve been curious about it before.

‘Defense vs. Defense.’

What will happen if I face Akidna?
