Episode 287: The Third Force

A view of an empty room with antique furniture.

Through the old window, you can see the night sky full of clouds. Ethan, who was sitting by the window, was quietly thinking.

‘What should I do now?’

Now he is locked up in an old mansion with Rebecca.

It was no one else’s fault.

If I had to ask, it was everyone’s mistake.

As soon as he saw through Rebecca’s existence, he didn’t expect that he could subdue her in an instant.

Should I have been a little more careful?

I thought so, but now was not the time to regret it.

Being a prisoner of war, the first thing to do is to secure safety. He rolled his head, his upper and lower teeth gently clashing against each other in his mouth.

‘First of all, the King of the Underworld is not a member of the Mage Tower.’

It was confirmed that Bohemirn was not the sidekick of the Mage Tower.

And, circumstantially, it has nothing to do with the Larian Magic Tower and the Volcano Island Magic Tower.

The same goes for the rest of the Mage Towers.

If so, you would have already come across the information. There was no reason for the Mage Towers, who were obsessed with raising their ranks, to leave such a mighty wizard unattended.

Certainly, it would have been used to raise the status of the Mage Tower by using it as a pillar of the Mage Tower and publicly announcing it to the world.

The Society’s rule is not to do business with the Mage Tower.

That’s why it was fortunate.

For Ethan, there will be room for a conversation with that man named Asher and for a compromise or deal.

‘The question is what is he looking for in the Dominion… … .’

The Mamentus Company, the Rainbow Inn, the Dominion State, and the two Magic Towers.

These are the things Asher has been involved with since coming to the Dominion. As I lined up the information like that, my brain flashed for a moment.

‘Could it be that they’re after the same thing as us?’

The only intersection of clues is the Bohemirn Magic Tower.

In addition to that, the opponent showed strong hostility towards the Bohemian Magic Tower, and Ethan and Rebecca were pursuing the hostile forces of the Bohemian Magic Tower.

Ethan rubbed his chin.

His eyes, reflected in the window, shone clearly.

“This, if you do well, you can turn a crisis into an opportunity———”

“Kyaa!”

I turned my head at the sudden scream.

Rebecca, who had just passed out, stood up and was breathing heavily. She met her eyes with her.

“Eh, Ethan?”

“You just woke up, Rebecca. Are there any inconveniences?”

“Ah, yes… … Not much… … .”

Rebecca stroked the nape of her neck.

I felt a throbbing pain like a bruise.

As the focus returned to her blurry eyes, the moment right before she passed out came to mind.

I vividly remembered the gray-haired man chasing her fiercely, the fear of being strangled by the staff, and the cold wall looking down on her.

My body trembled involuntarily.

However, the monster was not here, and when he looked around, he saw Ethan guarding his side.

that it is

“Ethan… … ! After all, you came to save me!”

“No, I was caught too.”

what?

Immediately after, a crackling sound was heard.

As I turned my gaze toward that direction, the door was wide open and Verden was coming inside.

He looked at Rebecca.

“You just woke up.”

It is a calm voice.

Rebecca widened her eyes, startled.

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

* * *

“Ugh… … !”

Rebecca, hiding behind Ethan’s back, glanced at Verden.

The fact that I’ve already screamed twice, and the image I’m showing now… … He was a rather rowdy wizard.

Ethan, who couldn’t see it, cleared his throat.

“Hey, Rebecca. Please sit down. How long are you going to do that?”

“Ha, but… … ! I could have been strangled!”

“He didn’t die, and he was still alive like this. And it’s fair treatment for being caught following and being caught while fleeing. He honestly has nothing to say even if he loses a limb.”

“I didn’t mean to.”

“Oh, sorry. Look, Mr. Asher says this too. So please calm down.”

“Oh… … .”

In the end, Rebecca reluctantly pulled the chair.

The two people, including Ethan, sat next to each other, with a small table in the middle, and Verden took a seat on the other side.

Blue eyes stared at Ethan.

‘Something seems to have changed amicably.’

Look at the tone, look at the attitude.

I don’t know why, but it didn’t matter. It was rather welcome if they would come out cooperatively.

“Are you ready to answer?”

“Yes, please.”

“What is the purpose of the Society for coming to the Dominion?”

I continued to ask questions that I couldn’t ask in the underground waterway.

Rebecca hesitated and glanced at Ethan. When he nodded his head, he let out a small sigh and raised his voice.

“I’m here for an investigation… … yo. this. Regarding the forces attacking the Bohemirn Magic Tower… … .”

A group defined by Verden as the third force.

It seems that the guess made in the underground canal was correct.

Ethan took over.

“We came here to find out which group is wiping out the influence of the Bohemirn Magic Tower near the Dominion.”

“wherefore.”

“It’s because they are working with the support of the Dominion, Volcano Island’s Magic Tower, and Larian Magic Tower. Do you know what our society is pursuing?”

Verden shook his head.

I’d only heard the name, but I didn’t know much about it.

Ethan said firmly.

“The Society is not an organization that simply opposes the Mage Tower and only wants the Mage Tower to collapse. Ultimately, we are aiming for a freer magical society. However, the current Mage Tower system is very closed and extreme in a bad sense. Currently, it is not revealed, but it will grow into an irreversible problem in the future.”

Verden knew that better than anyone else.

Human experiments, which were considered taboo in the world, were being secretly carried out by the higher level Magic Tower. And that too on a grand scale.

Other magic towers may also be breaking some taboo.

‘But they probably don’t know about the human experiment.’

Because the Bohemirn Magic Tower’s unofficial experiments were not known to the outside world at all.

So far, only Verden has escaped the forced magic circle. It is safe to say that the deterrence is absolute.

‘Then, what is the reason the Society thinks so?’

I was strongly intrigued.

“What is the basis for the Mage Tower being extreme?”

“Put simply, what is happening in this Dominion is an example. As you know, due to the battle for influence between the magic towers, a triple-digit number of people were killed beyond dozens, including the Mamentus Company and the Rainbow Inn.”

“That’s pretty poor. If the reason is simply that a lot of people died, more extreme groups would be scattered everywhere.”

There is no day when life does not die.

innocent or not innocent. that’s the world

“What I’m talking about is the means they are using. It means avoiding the public eye and operating unofficial power. That would be a reason for a secret disaster to follow the interests pursued by the Magic Tower. Needless to say, even if there are extremely dangerous wizards in that force.”

Are you wary of a small territory or a large country or continent getting caught up in the competition between magic towers? It was a valid reason for his own understanding.

But apart from that, there was something to point out.

“You mean… … It sounds like you know the identity of that force.”

“Because we didn’t waste our time either. As a result of investing time and effort, we have been able to obtain detailed information about the members of the faction and one of their leaders.”

Verden’s eyes widened slightly.

Because what they had was the information he wanted.

It is a weak but clear response.

Ethan quickly noticed and smiled.

“Judging by the circumstances, I know that Asher is also trying to pursue them. In that sense, I’d like to offer a deal. In exchange for the information we have, please fully guarantee our safety.”

“I promise. So tell me.”

It was an immediate answer without hesitation.

After clearing his throat for a moment, Ethan said.

“The group consists of many fugitives who hid themselves in the East Continent after being targeted by the Bohemirn Magic Tower in the past. One of the leaders classified as dangerous among them is ‘Kendras’, who was the former head of the guard of the ‘Three-Eyed Followers’.”

* * *

Follower of the Three Eyes.

A faction that was active in the Central Continent in the past, and its leader was notorious for plucking people’s eyes and using them as a medium for magic.

And he was brutally beaten.

The Bohemian Mage’s Tower has become a stepping stone to increase its reputation and expand its influence in the Central Continent.

The corpse of the chieftain was hung on the gate, and the Three-Eyed Follower was destroyed and disintegrated.

Most of the remnants were also killed at the end of the chase, but only Kendra and his subordinates were able to escape the pursuit by reaching the eastern continent.

This was also one of the background knowledge Verden knew.

“Kendras is a brutal strongman as he was the right hand of the leader. Although he is not a mage, he has three-eyed followers, the remnants of which are tier 3 or higher mages. Wouldn’t it be impossible to sit idly by when such people rallied with the help of other magic towers?”

“Have you got the location?”

“I haven’t figured it out yet… … yo. this. Something unexpected happened along the way.”

Rebecca grunted and scratched her neck.

Hearing that, I understood why he tried to follow me. It must have wanted something to appear out of nowhere and invade the Dominion.

“So, is it the end of simply investigating them?”

“I was thinking of figuring out the size of the force and coming up with countermeasures to match it. Afterwards, we planned to covertly remove it under our judgment.”

There are many cruel wizards in Kendras’ gang.

As a society, I couldn’t just sit still. Neglecting the tyranny of the Mage Tower and neglecting extreme mages are against their rules.

It was like a mission of some kind.

How did you try to find out the location information?

To Verden’s question, Edan readily gave an answer.

“The only thing we know about Kendras is the wizards dispatched from the two magic towers, Ezra and Molly. And only the Dominion. I tried to infiltrate and gather information, but… … Frankly, it wasn’t easy. It is very difficult to deceive the eyes of a mage belonging to the Mage Tower, not anyone else.”

You can’t kidnap them and interrogate them.

It’s impossible to subdue them all at once in a magic battle, and if you openly move like that, you’ll have to deal with two magic towers.

It was a risk that even Rebecca and Ethan could not afford.

“With this I have told you all the information I know. Seriously. Are you satisfied?”

Knock knock.

Verden repeatedly tapped the table with his fingers. After finishing his thoughts, he looked at the two of them.

“I will give you a meal and a room while you stay here. Since the magic circle has been set up outside the mansion, I won’t mind if you freely roam around the inside of the mansion or the garden.”

Verden stood up from his seat.

“Instead, you’d better not think of going out without my permission. I sincerely advise you.”

Leaving a one-sided notice, I immediately left the room.

I hear footsteps receding from the hallway. Soon after, her presence completely disappeared, and Rebecca jerked her head away.

“Ethan! What if I freely disclose information? All of them, without exception!”

“It’s not specifically classified as confidential, so this is fine.”

“It is, but… … .”

“And this was for the best. If I went out blindly and uncooperatively, I wouldn’t have seen a good performance. Doesn’t Master always say that too? As long as you are alive, you can do anything.”

“But you didn’t have to be so cooperative, did you? I’d rather ask you to let us go in exchange for a deal.”

“Why? There is such a talent right in front of you.”

… … Human Resources?

Rebecca blinked slowly.

Suddenly, memories from the past flashed through my mind.

“You-you’re thinking of recruiting that human into the Society?! Are you crazy?!”

“It is perfectly normal. Honestly, isn’t it overflowing with reasons?”

First, it did not belong to the Mage Tower.

Second, they are powerful wizards that cannot be matched by the two.

Third, he is called the king of the underworld, but he is too personal to be the ruler of evil criminals.

“And did you see the magic circle surrounding the mansion? For me, it is a high-level magic circle that is impossible to destroy. If I tried to leave the mansion by force, I wouldn’t be able to get out. In other words, Asher is very well versed in magic circles.”

I heard that it is.

To be honest, he was a perfect fit for what the Society was looking for.

“Well, there’s no guarantee that you’ll get an offer… … .”

“You can still have a friendly relationship. Whatever it is, it’s far better than being hostile. Above all, there is nothing I can do about it since I am trapped in the mansion.”

There was nothing to refute.

It was Rebecca’s fault that caused this situation in the first place.

“Ha, what is this… … .”

She muttered and sat down on the bed.

‘huh?’

It was softer than I thought because it bounced a little.

Now that I look at it, the whole room looks old, but it was tidy without a single cobweb, probably because it had been cleaned recently.

The environment is incomparably better than the ryokan I’ve stayed at.

‘It’s bad, but… … Wasn’t it?’

Rebecca quietly lay down on the bed.

The mind is uncomfortable, but the body feels more comfortable than ever. The feeling of alienation was only for a moment.

I fell asleep with my eyelids closed.

Then my heart felt at ease. It was, in effect, sleep for escape.

* * *

Verden recalled the information he had obtained about the Society.

I was looking for a way to find out what happened to the third party. After a while, I came to a conclusion.

‘Is the key the Dominion Lord?’

The purpose of coming to the Dominion is to build a force that will serve as its foundation.

In the midst of that, causing a dispute with the other magic towers was the worst of the bad decisions. A hasty action will cause all sorts of annoying situations.

Verden meets alone with the Dominion in about three days.

It would be better to use that time as an opportunity to find out where Kendras is.

‘Of course, there is a high possibility that it does not fit my standards.’

From what I’ve heard, Kendras has a very brutal temper like no other. He may be of the same kind as others.

But whatever it is, I plan to judge it after meeting in person.

Rather than simply listening to rumors and judging, it would be more accurate to see once. Verden decided to trust his eyes entirely.

“… … .”

Suddenly, the society came to mind.

They have the unique purpose of being an anti-magic tower, but… … Not suitable for use as a base.

For now, that is.

If he did that, it would be like the Society moving Verden himself. Taking control of an established organization is not an easy task.

Furthermore, the strength of the Society is unknown.

Verden had no intention of handing over the initiative to someone else. Revenge was entirely up to him, from beginning to end.

‘Still, there is no need to antagonize needlessly.’

Because there’s no reason for that.

So it would be better to have a friendly relationship like the ark.

Of course, that didn’t mean that he would release Ethan and Rebecca right away.

As of now, their goals are partly aligned, so there was a possibility that they would get in the way.

So hold on for now.

It won’t be too late if I let him go later after he’s done his errands… … Verden made a firm decision.

After that, time passed and the promised day began to approach.

It was around two days like that.

Three uninvited guests came to the Dominion of Midlos.

There were two clowns and a swordsman.
