184. The dead don’t talk
[Let’s organize the plan for now.]
I was sold on Solium in the middle, but what was the reason we came to the Empire in the first place? I needed to revisit that.
Why, why? It’s because Cream asked me to go to the Tower of the Four Seasons. Of course, I don’t even know what the place is, but this trip itself was her will in the first place.
Come to think of it, the hero wanders the world looking for the demon king. So what if she’s stuck in one place and the hero doesn’t go on her kind of journey?
[Well, then even the grandfather next door will be declared the Demon King.]
[······You’re kidding, right?]
[It’s true. Didn’t you hear about the model warrior?]
When I asked this question to the Holy Sword, she answered in a rather harsh tone. Well, the Holy Sword ticks me. It hasn’t been a day or two, but today it feels sharper than usual.
After thinking about it for a while, I came up with an empirical reasoning.
[Are you sure today is that day?]
[Are you really crazy?! Where is the sword like that!]
No, or you can just say no. Why are you angry? But since Cream turned to look at me, I chose to be silent instead of protesting.
It’s not like she’s glaring at me, but it’s scary nonetheless. When I shut my mouth, the holy sword murmured gloomily.
[I can’t contribute anything to the world now…]
[Ah, why is that? Still, you’re contributing to the world in your own way as a holy sword, aren’t you?]
[It may have been. Without you!]
No, he comforted me at best, but why the f*ck again? For whatever reason, it was clear that the holy sword was more hysterical than usual.
[······So I didn’t hear the answer to the question of what to do.]
[Didn’t I tell you? I’ll do it as usual.]
The holy sword spoke in a more exhausted voice. Okay, after playing this much, it’s time to get out of the city. It’s too precious to be caught in a place like this.
[Kill them all again, smash them, like that?]
[Wow, Aries. I don’t want to say this, but aren’t you being too savage?]
[·······.]
If you tease him more, he’ll really explode. Before the sensitive holy sword exploded, I quickly added my words.
[I have to use my head. Head.]
[So, how!]
[It’s not that difficult. You just have to catch the culprit written on the wanted badge over there.]
At my words, the Holy Sword muttered in confusion.
[I’m not saying let’s surrender… Are you trying to cover up the crime?]
[Yes.]
[It’s really your plan. So, how do you save the person who will be blamed? You won’t be able to create an ally here in a short time.]
[Hey, nothing to worry about. Does this brother have a way?]
[What is your brother…? Ugh, since when did you guys hear me? I don’t know what the plan is again, but do whatever you want.]
The Holy Sword spoke in a tired voice as if he was tired of being angry. I said softly, looking at the holy sword that had let go of everything.
[What are you talking about, grandma? The role of grandmother is the most important.]
[Yes?]
[Think about it. Some of us have to talk anyway, but who else is here to talk?]
My voice is by no means malevolent, but I can feel that it is not human anyway, and Cream, although sweet, is not good at speaking. Choco is just a child.
Muffin with a husky voice is at least a possibility, but the indelible boredom and fatigue in that voice do not suit the current urgent situation.
On the other hand, what about the holy sword? Her usual voice is that of a soft and mature woman, but she has a holy sword and can instigate and fabricate… No, when she speaks, her voice is like that of a heroine full of spirit.
In fact, the true power of her holy sword is not that it shines brightly or that it cannot be broken, but rather, isn’t it because of her appealing voice?
[·······.]
[It’s for the warrior, aren’t you going to do it?]
What did you do when you were a human? Maybe she wasn’t a con artist who made a name for herself across the continent? Well, the past of the Holy Sword. Anyway, the important thing is that I have her weakness.
No matter how eloquent she is and what a compelling voice she is, she also lives under the logic of reason and fanaticism in the end.
[······Huh, okay.]
The Holy Sword, which was silent for a moment, immediately conveyed her words of acceptance.
*
A knight clad in half-shattered armor and a huge hound that came to his waist ran into the adventurer’s guild in a gasp.
The pair made their way across the tavern to the counter in an instant. The gangsters who gambled on a board spread out on the floor and spat out dissatisfaction, but it was soon drowned out by the knight’s fierce shouts.
[I need help!]
“What, what?”
An ambiguous voice with a high voice for a man and a low voice for a woman. However, the desperation contained in it was enough to make the eyes of the surroundings look back at them at once.
The retired adventurer, who was just guarding the counter with a bored face, suddenly received an object thrown by a person in armor and went into a panic. It is the head of a young beast girl with her eyes closed.
The head, which still had a hint of warmth as if it had just died, had its eyes closed with a peaceful face, as if it had not even recognized its own death.
[No time to explain! Cool, I found the guy who went wild in the central theater this time!]
“What? The five hundred gold coins?”
[Yes! I chased him down with my comrades and succeeded in killing the beast girl he takes as a servant… After receiving a counterattack, I had no choice but to retreat, losing my comrades.]
Five hundred gold coins. The adventurers, blinded by the enormous amount of money, flocked to the side of the knight like bees. The adventurer’s guild entrusts many requests and handles them instead.
‘Bounty hunting’ was also one such request. In addition, since the lord’s decree was issued, there is no need to take away the request money in the middle, and it is a request that any adventurer would like.
From noble mtl dot com
The knight bent his back and shouted in a bitter tone. His movements were a little hesitant, but everyone put his awkwardness aside as they focused on his words.
[Fortunately, he is also deeply wounded and won’t be able to get far. However, its power is formidable, so support is needed! Are there any brave warriors who will go with me to slay the villains?]
An overly old-fashioned way of speaking that would normally cause a sense of difference. However, combined with the speaker’s appealing voice, it has been transformed into a language with tremendous persuasive power.
For those who want wealth, five hundred gold coins are already enough, but even those who want fame couldn’t keep their butts on the floor any longer after hearing such words.
“Where is the location! Where is he?”
“Five hundred coins, if I could get even a part of it, it would cure my sister’s illness…”
[I will guide you, follow me!]
Soon after, the blood-covered knight left with furious momentum, as if he had come, causing trouble by leading the adventurers who were hanging out in the tavern.
The old adventurer at the counter just stared at it with a bewildered face, unable to let go of his head. A little later, his face hardened.
“That guy…”
As I grew older, my body declined, but my experience and wisdom grew more abundant. Although the words of the knight who had led the group of adventurers earlier seemed logical at first glance, they didn’t make any sense if you listened closely.
You wouldn’t know if there was a commotion near the city, so if you fought that wanted criminal, you’d be outside the city.
Unlike being covered in blood, the knight’s actions were not those of a wounded person in the slightest. And, if you’re going to ask for support, of course you have to go to the lord. What is the reason you came to the Adventurer’s Guild?
It reeked of a terrible lie. The old adventurer silently looked down at his head in his hands.
“Hmm.”
Luckily, the old adventurer was there when the wanted criminals ran amok in the arena. That’s why I vaguely remembered the appearance of the prisoner girl who messed around there.
They have the same brown hair, but the shape of their ears and the color of their hair are subtly different. Most of all, unlike wanted criminals who were messy, this girl’s hair was neatly braided.
The pin in her hair was also a rather high-quality material for ordinary people or criminals to use. Yes, it’s like a maid from an aristocratic family.
“No way…”

It is obvious to say that the level of those who are killing in the adventurer’s guild’s tavern in broad daylight. A Hanryang wearing the mask of an adventurer. Fools who have neither the ability nor the will to carry out the request.
That’s why I told you to stop in the guild’s lobby instead of running deeper into the noble mansion or the adventurer’s guild. Experienced soldiers and adventurers will surely find it strange.
However, these big idiots with no practical experience or skills were so easily caught in the bait.
Even killifish is no different from a big fish if there are this many. So now let’s pull up the net.
“Damn it! How much further do you have to go!”
“Something is strange. There is no sign of a fight…”
If a small number of secretive people tried to get out of the city, of course they would have been caught, but a large crowd gathered around and shouted, ‘We’re going to catch wanted criminals!’, And even the soldiers didn’t stop them.
On the contrary, some of them foolishly blended into the crowd. However, they were starting to wonder if the jjambab was different from the clumsy adventurers.
“Hey, what happened…”
Perhaps he knew his role was over, the Holy Sword did not open his mouth any more. Instead, it was me who took over the baton.
[Find a wanted criminal?]
A voice that is completely different from before. Those who gathered at the horrifying voice, which could not be heard by humans no matter how favorably they listened, involuntarily backtracked.
The knight quietly turned around and unleashed a black blade.
[The thing hanging around my neck was five hundred gold coins, take it.]
