9th Circle Lord

The arrows that crossed the darkness contributed to summoning the ambushed enemy's comrades, but nothing changed.

Elena whispers to Kane through the Status Spear as she grabs her barracks and watches the incoming enemies.

[More enemies appeared.]

[What are the numbers?]

[Thirty.]

[Elena. Guard your position. We'll take care of it. If anyone escapes, get rid of it.]

[Got it.]

Keep talking using the status window even if you stay away from the darkness.

Kane continued to give instructions as he communicated the situation to his colleagues.

The operation was intact, but it was a bit more covert.

[Jacques. Defeat them quietly.]

[Dolken. Overpower in secret. Their level is low. If you notice an ambush, you'll run away, making hunting more difficult.]

Kane wrote the expression hunt. It was a rebuttal that the enemies were that weak.

I quietly dealt with the enemy who appeared in the forest.

The beginning was Elena.

One day, she climbs on a tree and watches the enemy march through the compact bushes.

Elena jumps as the enemy passes right below her.

Elena sitting on her shoulders exactly.

“Well……. Ugh!”

I put a dagger around the neck of a startled enemy and stopped his mouth.

I thought of complex feelings such as panic and shock in my eyes, but that's all.

The surroundings have calmed down again.

Elena, who dealt with the enemy, informs her group.

[I took care of one.]

[Well done. Let's do this.]

Elena looks down at the body.

Even though the dead were troubled, the admiration was there.

Elena melts in the dark again.

There was a light smile on her moving face.

The foundation is disappearing.

Derek, who brought in reinforcements, noticed something suspicious.

He calleth the name of his subordinate carefully.

“Abson! Abson! ”

The subordinate had no answer.

That's all Derek realized.

It's a trap!

They were advancing at a certain interval.

If you call me by name, of course I can hear you.

But the answer was not even popular.

‘He was looking for us. ’

My back is cold and my chest is cold. Derek didn't say to retreat.

I get noticed and become a target.

I was going to go the way I came, thinking I had to live alone, and suddenly my whole body got nervous.

There was a slick glance at him.

With his lower back down, he slowly raises his torso.

He stares at the man in the front.

Dolken snorted and asked.

“Where are you going? ”

“How did you know? ”

“From the beginning.”

“Can't you just let me go? If you spare me, I will erase everything that happened today from my memory. ”

Dolken fills his tongue.

“Send back the one who came here to kill you? Do you think I'm a saint? ”

“We have a big force. When this is known, you will all die. ”

Derek's warning shook the bush behind him, revealing Kane.

“If you shoot a signal and move it, it means the system is in place. What kind of organization?”

“We're red fish. ”

“Red molluscs? What's that?”

“That's the name of our organization. ”

I heard footing and laughing on the tree.

Dolken shivers ridiculously.

“What a terrifying name for an organization. I'm gonna pee if I hear it. Who made such a great name? ”

Derek replied with a kind eye that sank into laughter.

“We don't just kill targets. Don't eat it alive. You will not die equally. ”

Despite the cold chest warnings, laughter remained.

“Eating? So? You want us to be afraid? ”

“I will never miss a goal I set once. Wherever you go, we will surely pursue you. We're being followed for the rest of our lives, so let's quit here and back off for each other. ”

No one took Derek's proposal seriously.

Kane said.

“I can still afford to see a lot of bullshit hanging around. ”

“I have nothing to say. ”

Jacques, who suddenly appeared, pressed an arrow into Derek's elbow.

Jacques, who confirmed the death of Derek, who fell like a straw, told his group.

“They're all dead. ”

I looked at Derek like he was pathetic when he died.

“Red molluscs? They're making a joke out of me. ”

The journey with Luther resulted in a stronger heart.

There was no way they could have engraved Derek's warning so deeply.

The group who came back saw the progress on their own. Luther, who was listening, nodded.

“Well done.”

I've taken care of it. It's over.

Luther lost interest, but Barkoz was different.

“Who are the ambushers? ”

“They're red molluscs, you know? ”

“Almadada. They're very vicious bandits. Once you raid, you'll never leave a survivor behind. He even said he was eating like a livestock. I heard that the infamous Steel Heart is not a dizzy heart, and it doesn't start anywhere near their territory. It seems that they have expanded their territory so far. ”

The bandits are relentless thanks to the unstable security.

Luther showed interest.

“Eating people? ”

“Yeah, it's kind of a ritual. to show their courage. ”

Kalua hit Gingerly.

“What a terrible people. ”

I simply cannot understand eating the same person to boast.

Even Dolken, who knew it would be a threat, was stunned.

“Were they really eating people? ”

“I didn't mean to kill you nicely. ”

Knowing that, they are madmen.

Barkoz expressed his concern as everyone was divided.

“Red molluscs are nails in debt. We will surely try to avenge what they have suffered. ”

“Isn't it just a bandit? ”

“I'm not looking at it that way. They're bandits, but they're organized. It's connected to the Giant Merchant Guild, and it's connected to other nobles and information guilds. ”

One force linked to the Red Mole, not two.

There is a Red Mole and Round Table Merchant to eliminate Competitive Merchants, and they also contract with nobles to raid other territories.

It is also linked to the Information Guild, which receives assassination requests.

“As bandits grow, there are many places to use them. Red molars are one of them. ”

I knew it, and it was a force entangled like a spider web.

Luther asked.

“Are you worried about the aftermath? ”

“No way. If all of them stick together, how can anyone be worried? But at this rate, they will find us and attack us. ”

It was easy to say that something annoying happened.

Luther is full of tongues.

“The Burrows are doing their best to survive. ”

Luther looks like a bandit. He doesn't want to be killed. He looks like he's hanging out his hands all over the place.

Kane was sad.

“I would have saved one. ”

I should have known where I was from and had a dream run.

Kane's sadness quickly turned off.

“Even now, we need to find out. ”

Luther, who spoke lightly, stood up.

“Let's go.”

“Where are you going? ”

“Where the bodies are. And go to their home. ”

Luther pulls the cargo box out of his arms.

A fog of Seekerman blooms out of the open woodland.

The evil spirit asked.

[Something must have happened to me.]

“Yes. I have to work on the body. ”

Luther knew the power of evil spirits.

Demons swallow souls.

I was going to use his talent to eliminate the afterlife beforehand.

Luther points to Derek's dead body.

“This one. ”

[Sure. Can I eat?]

“Yes.”

[Uh-huh. Long time no see.]

Not long after he died, his soul remained.

Black smoke covered Derek's body.

After a while, a clean, soiled ghost appeared and looked exactly like Derek, who was dead.

‘Shut it off! Help me! ’

Derek's screams, absorbed by evil spirits, are disturbing.

The group did not see what Luther saw. Dolken's eyes widened as he looked at the changes taking place in the body.

“Ouch!”

“The corpse is moving! ”

It was as it was.

When the dark shadow of the evil spirit descended, the corpse trembled like a convulsion.

It was a process that took place while forcibly sucking the soul.

Everyone killed their breath.

Kalua asked with curious eyes.

“Master, what the hell is going on? ”

“It is the process that happens when the evil spirit is forced to suck the soul. ”

“Is that possible? ”

“I didn't know that was possible until a while ago. It is the unique power of evil spirits, so I am doing it. ”

The world had a lot of things Luther didn't know. One of them was the gift of evil spirits.

Luther thought as he watched how evil spirits do.

‘Sooner or later, we'll have to start research on spirituality. ’

The abilities associated with the soul are black.

A large category belongs to black magic, but it is deeply related to necromancer when dug in detail.

I had never dealt with it before, and I thought it was a low-level discipline.

But now it was different.

Seeing how much evil spirits do, there was not one or two interesting things about necromancers.

In the meantime, Derek's soul is completely sucked into the evil spirit.

The evil spirit swallows Derek's soul and gives him a pleasant moan.

[Chuckles] A desirable soul is always sweet to eat.]

“Did you read his memory? ”

[Yes, I'll let you know if I have any questions.]

“Tell me where he belongs. ”

[Stay where you are. Before that, I have a request.]

Luther frowns.

“Request? Who gave you permission to ask? If you say so, follow without saying a word. ”

I use it now, but I didn't trust it. If the evil spirit thought of crawling a little, he was going to extinguish it.

The evil spirit turned into an unfair voice.

[Hey, I'm helping you. So you have to pay the minimum price, right?]

“What do you ask for? ”

[There are many souls nearby. Do you mind if I eat?]

He seemed to be talking about Derek's dead colleague.

Luther knew the plot of evil spirits.

‘He's trying to get away from me by growing his strength. ’

But it was a story that never happened.

Evil spirits have no status window.

So I don't know how strong I am.

‘Suck and eat all the creatures on the continent. But you won't be able to follow me. ’

Luther knew the evil spirit's intentions, but did not let him down.

It is also a law that is motivated by hope. Luther accepted it, pretending he didn't know what was in vain.

“Hurry.”

[Thank you.]

The evil spirit, accepted by the will of God, disappeared like a shot.

Barkoz watches the black smoke disappear with his dumb eyes.

Chicken flesh rises and the tale cools.

I wondered, but I didn't ask.

Barkoz thought he had been able to accompany Luther until now because he was curious.

Meanwhile, the evil spirit returned and pointed in the direction.

[Over there.]

“Don't go.”

Following the guidance of the Evil Spirit, the group proceeded to the Red Mole House.

The home of the Red Mole was a cave on the hillside.

The open cave is lit with light, and the entrance is guarded by bandits.

The two bandits guarding the entrance yawned.

They looked back, rethinking how sorry they were.

Inside the cave, groaning and screaming echoed in succession.

The bandit chattered and said.

“I was warned today, and I had a bad feeling. ”

“Hang in there a little bit. Soon, we'll be watching the shift. Let's get a chance. ”

“Uh-huh. I heard the water was good today. ”

“It's awesome to think about it. ”

Their suspicious conversation never followed again.

Chiara, who came down the hill with a light leap, grabbed the back of the two bandits.

Kwachup!

A bandit who crossed the border died with a broken collarbone.

The group that followed immediately stopped trying to enter the cave.

“Ahhh!”

A woman's voice echoed from the cave.

Elena blushes and Luther puzzles.

Luther looks at Barkoz.

“Do bandits run salons? ”

“Salon? What do you mean? ”

“There are many nobles and abilities inside. What the hell are you guys doing? ”

There are not enough nobles in the Bandits' hideout.

The returning shape is suspicious.
