161 – I Hate the Empire So Much (1)

After three days, Ymer came to her senses and woke up.

The first thing Emer did as soon as she opened her eyes was to ask for food.

“I’m hungry… Give me food…”

Emer literally inhaled the food that Dttokki had prepared.

After setting the table twice, Emer patted her swollen belly and let out a long sigh.

“I think I’ll buy it… Thank you…”

“Imer. Let’s talk with me.”

As I sat down next to her, Mer moved slightly away from me.

“First of all, were you a woman?”

“Yeah. Didn’t you know?”

“Would you have known?”

“Hehe, that’s right.”

Ymer let out a dark laugh.

“That’s it. You were pardoned, right?”

Emer has no answer.

“Hasn’t he been pardoned?”

“I did.”

“But why is that? If you get caught one more time, won’t it be the death penalty?”

“That’s right.”

“Then why on earth did you do that in the cemetery? Was it just mental illness that made you unable to control your urges?”

“Hehe…”

Emer laughed heartily again.

“Leonard. You were the only person among the punitive forces who were kind to me. For that, I will always be grateful.”

“Okay. But why are you saying that now?”

“I’m not supposed to tell anyone, but I’ll just tell you.”

Ymer pulled the chair closer again and spoke lowly.

“I ran away as soon as I was pardoned after the punitive mission was over. Now that I had a second chance, I wanted to live without causing trouble. But recently, someone came to visit me from the imperial castle…”

“Who?”

“I don’t know either. He just said he came from the imperial city and beat me up, and said that if I did as he told me, he would save my life. It hurt and I was scared, so I said I knew and begged that I would do as he told me.”

“What a fool. “You lied down like that without any evidence?”

“I did show something. It was like a medal or something.”

After hearing Imer’s description, I immediately knew what it was.

A mark carried only by members of the royal family.

Is it really a royal family?

“What does he look like?”

“He was a bit old… “He had gray hair and a beard and was very tall.”

1st prince… ?

For now, let’s continue listening to the story.

“Did he tell you to cause trouble in the cemetery?”

“I don’t know why I ordered it either. Just do it that way. And kill everyone who gets in your way. They said that if you do that, I won’t die. So…”

Suddenly, Emer burst into tears.

“Ugh… I wanted to live…”

“Don’t cry. I know everything about your situation.”

The 1st prince ordered it.

Ymer is mentally unstable, stupid, and naive.

That’s probably right.

But why and for what reason did they order Ymer to make a fuss in the principality’s cemetery?

“And let me ask you one more thing. “Did you control the statue in the County of Rutger?”

“I didn’t say that first! What is it? Ugh… Assassins in the imperial castle…”

“Espion.”

“Yes. Those people suddenly dragged me away and showed me the machine and asked if I could control it. I said I could. But when they said I needed a soul, they suddenly killed the prisoners right in front of my eyes.”

“Hmm, okay…”

With this, I got all the information I needed to get from Emer.

The first prince, who was classified as an idiot, is showing some movement, and as for the statue, it is definitely true that the empire did it.

Even if you only vaguely know what a stone statue is, the first prince is very surprising.

“Then go now. The security guard will be surrounded by the incident caused by the monster called Fresh Flesh.”

“Really?”

“Okay. Go. Go and live without getting into trouble. If you happen to do something stupid… “

“Thank you for saving my life, Leonard!”

Ymer pushed the chair away, fell flat on the floor and bowed.

There are many sins I committed, but I saved Smarty’s life, and thanks to him, Ornette also survived.

I am not a warrior of justice, and I have no intention of killing them or handing them over to the security forces.

* * * * *

So Ymer left the guild.

He asked to be sent to a small kingdom far away, so Ornette opened a portal leading there.

“Thank you so much.”

When Ornet bowed in greeting, Mer threw up his hand in embarrassment.

“No. I heard you almost died because of me, so I’m sorry.”

They were two people who bowed to each other and bumped their heads in the process.

“Smart. Quick.”

This time, Ornette pressed the back of Smart’s head and forced him to say hello.

“Thank you…”

She looks like an older sister who suddenly became more mature after having a younger sibling.

Both of them are so crazy cute.

“I’m fine, everyone…”

I crossed the portal, carrying a bag full of food and the clothes we had brought for her.

“You’re gone. You’ll live well, right?”

Leana shrugged her shoulders in response to my question.

“I don’t know.”

“Maybe we should have taken him with us.”

“Is that okay? A necromancer.”

“That’s true too.”

Anyway, I am confused by Emer’s testimony

If I just stay still, troublesome things will keep happening, so I guess I’ll have to work harder.

But where should I start?

First, let’s start by finding out who is nearby.

I think Patrick would give at least a hint.

When I met Patrick and asked him outright… What is it?

Patrick’s office door is closed tightly.

I looked through the window and couldn’t see Patrick.

Did you go on some outside work?

Judging by the fact that the furniture and fixtures are still there, it doesn’t seem like it was opened at all.

“Mr. Leonard.”

When I turned around, I saw Patrick looking at me with a kind smile.

“Mr. Patrick. Where are you going?”

“Yes. But what brought you here?”

“I want to talk a little. About the Imperial Castle.”

Patrick opened his office door and went inside with a smile on his face.

Patrick asked as they sat across from each other at the table.

“What exactly do you want to know?”

“First of all, I know that Mr. Patrick is the 4th Princess’s exclusive adjutant.”

“Oh, is that so?”

He doesn’t look embarrassed at all.

As expected, he is a great person.

Patrick is the exclusive adjutant of the 4th princess.

When I first received a request to protect Patrick.

At that time, he secretly stole a scroll that had spilled from the carriage.

It’s a communication scroll.

If you write the content on the back and tear it, it flies straight to the recipient written on the scroll.

As a result of deciphering the code, the recipient was the 4th princess’s office.

Patrick is the 4th princess’s son, and for unknown reasons, he disguised himself as a trader and opened a branch in Shlessi.

So what is its purpose?

There is no way the princess’s exclusive lieutenant would come here just to spy on the principality.

It is much more important than that.

I thought about Patrick’s actions so far.

They kept me informed and even handled the inspection priests from the religious denomination on our behalf.

At least Patrick and the 4th princess are not hostile to me, and it is clear that Emeric is on the 4th princess’s hostile side.

If they had joined forces that were friendly to me in the first place, they wouldn’t have betrayed me.

“Good. Since you already know this, the scope of the conversation will expand.”

“Yes. You know what happened at the cemetery the other day, right?”

“That’s right. I heard that Mr. Leonard’s guild did a great job with the story about dead bodies coming back to life and attacking the village.”

“That was the work of a necromancer. And I heard that the 1st Prince himself threatened the necromancer.”

“Is that so? Who did it?”

“The necromancer in question. He is not there now. He was sent to a faraway small kingdom that I cannot tell you about.”

“Is that so? It’s a shame.”

It was difficult to guess what Patrick was thinking just by looking at his expression

Let’s see.

The 1st and 2nd princes of the empire were idiots and were completely pushed out in the line of successors.

The remaining fight is between the 3rd prince and the 4th princess, and Emeric is on the 3rd prince’s side.

The 4th princess is extremely cunning.

In order not to be pushed back, the 3rd prince tried to appease her her punitive force her, entrench them in key positions in her her empire her her her her, and turn them into her her her her her support her force her her her her.

But why on earth was I ostracized?

There is a possibility that it is because the higher-ups consider it unclean because they are demon hunters.

Anyway.

Then, the reason why Patrick came here and helped me was because of the 4th princess’s will.

The idea was probably to protect me and take advantage of me.

But this is all just my guess.

Now, here’s what I’m curious about.

What is the 1st prince doing and what are the 4th princess’s intentions?

Let’s start with the 4th princess.

“4 What are the princess’s intentions? I know she is quite friendly towards me, but I don’t know why she is like that.”

Patrick, who had been listening quietly, opened his mouth.

“Let me ask you first, Mr. Leonard. What are Mr. Leonard’s intentions?”

“My intention?”

“Yes. After being betrayed by the punitive force, I suddenly left the empire and established a guild here in Shlessi. Did you just hope to run a guild?”

“That’s right. I wanted to be rewarded for my hard work in a place with nice air and scenery. That’s all.”

The Resurrection of the Great Evil is not yet a card to be revealed.

Patrick heard me and asked again.

“If you were given the choice to live a life other than that of a guild leader, what would you do?”

“Another life? What exactly is it?”

“For example, entering the imperial castle.”

“You are telling me to help the 4th princess become emperor.”

“That’s right. That’s why the princess dispatched me here to protect Mr. Leonard in the first place.”

Patrick said, looking at the Qiratus leather armor I was wearing.

“Leonard, join us. We will kill all the incompetent emperors and princes and create a new empire.”
