Arms dealer in another world

244 Darkness in the Unknown 3

Natalia was a little surprised to see imir.

However, instead of revealing the surprise, I examined the headquarters of the main side soldiers.

to determine whether or not they were expected.

None of the soldiers were surprised. It was clear he had already known Le Ghar was coming.

‘It was all planned. ’

In the meantime, Imir approached Natalia and greeted the soldiers.

“It's been a long time. You, too. ”

It was clear that Imir was acquainted with the soldiers as well as Natalia. Natalia's poetry line, which she was about to ask first, is directed toward the bag that she was carrying.

It also looked like a common leather bag. However, there was a faint red stain on the hem of the bag, and so far I was irritated by the rain.

“What's that? ”

“Gift.”

Imir drops her bag. What came out of the bag was three decapitated heads.

The head comprised of two humans and one Orc had a terribly painful expression. Blood hardened like his face, but there was no sign of corruption as if it had not been long since he was cut.

I just got my hair cut.

The trail of a missing tail.

Imir, who appeared afterwards.

Natalia, the puzzle piece, asks.

“Were they following us? ”

“Yes, many important guests will come, but it is not possible for useless people to intervene. ”

“Did you find out who they were? ”

“He's with the Department of Security. Christians, to be precise. ”

“You cut off the heads of your men? ”

“I tortured him because he didn't tell me what he knew. ”

If Christian finds out about this,

Of course, Natalia and others gathered here. We will wipe out this whole town.

Of course, I didn't think imir had slowed things down. No, I was sure he would be an expert in these matters, and it was clear that he had done such a thorough job.

“Christian will doubt me, not you. ”

“Nothing to worry about. Even if I did, I wouldn't be able to touch you right now. ”

“What does that mean? ”

“You'll find out when you meet my friends. ”

Natalia didn't ask any more questions.

The soldiers who followed, and Imir, went into the village.

Imir ties up three decapitated heads and walks the town with them in plain sight. It was a terrible sight to see, but the villagers were not surprised only to tease the imir like that. Both men and women, cows.

It is an unreasonable village at any point. Natalia speculated that the town was not built naturally, but for some artificial purpose.

The town itself was nothing special, except that the inhabitants were strange.

You can't see starving corpses or beggars, but it looks like a pretty livable town. But the houses in the village were shabby together.

Imir leads Natalia to a rather large building in the middle of the village. It looked like a building for the chief or the town hall.

You notice a few horses tied around the building. It may not be strange that there are horses or mules in a small town, but it would be different if they were high-end.

Every horse that is tied to a building sells every house in this town.

These are high-end horses that are hard to deceive. To ride a horse like this in the Empire, I had to be a senior rank or a target.

“Who's in there? ”

“Friends.”

Imir took Natalia into the building instead of answering. Unlike its shabby exterior, you can see a few people gathered in a neat and tidy building. The majority of the species seemed to be mixed with one or two people from the phosphorus liver.

When the 'friends’ who were in the building saw this mir coming in, they were not surprised and welcomed.

“Welcome. ”

“Right on time. ”

Imir bowed her head lightly and politely.

“Good to see you all. ”

“Who was there with you? ”

“I'm your new friend. You've all heard of it. The mirror iron mask. ”

“What about the mirror iron? ”

“You mean the Half-Elf? ”

Everyone's gaze is towards Natalia. Even the mirror-like shiny iron mask couldn't hide the shape of a long, pointy ear like a human ear mixed with an elf's ear.

Without revealing his naked face, the ‘friends’ who did not know that imir's words were true made curious faces.

Natalia felt uneasy because she felt like she was being watched for some reason. But Natalia, who felt something, quietly asked Imir instead of revealing her uncomfortable feelings.

“Who are they? ”

“Imperial giants. ”

“Giants? I don't know any faces. ”

“There is no such thing as the Emperor, the Imperial Inspector, and the Head of Security. But they deserve to hear the big man's voice. ”

Obviously, Imir called them ‘friends’, but for that, attitudes and speech were quite polite.

Given his character, those who are gathered here deserve to be treated accordingly. Status, or property.

“Are they in high positions? ”

“Yes, If their power is combined, Even the head of the security department can not carelessly. ”

“Did you pull me out with that power? ”

“That's right."

Natalia giving up her allegiance to the Empire doesn't make her a fool.

C.

In this situation, I knew exactly what to do to the group in front of me with the power to pull myself out of my ear by the hands of the Head of Security.

“You saved my life. Thank you.”

Natalia also smiled satisfied with her ‘friends’ who lowered their heads politely.

“Looks useful. ”

“Half elves, but they're good. ”

‘Friends’ looked at Natalia rather than her colleagues. With their eyes and their tone, they were able to see what Natalia was thinking.

Tools, or slavery.

It was humiliating, but I couldn't refuse it now. Natalia didn't even have to make a face thanks to the mask.

“Whatever I do, I'll do my best. ”

“Of course. But...

“Is there a problem? ”

“Your hand. ”

It must be Natalia's left hand. Three fingers flew away and all that was left was the hand words of the thumb and index finger.

If it's battle you're expecting from Natalia,

It was a big problem that one hand became crippled. While the faces of the 'friends’ were getting worse, Imir stepped out into the atmosphere.

“Don't worry. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“Even though the mirror iron mask has been disabled, we can fight enough. With a little power from the Demon King, you can become more powerful than ever before. ”

“The Demon King?”

“Do you really think the Demon King would lend his power to a single Half Elf? ”

“I guarantee it. ”

“Then I'm sure you can trust me. ”

Immediately, a few words from Imir changed the mood. That alone was surprising, but there was something else that really surprised Natalia.

The Demon King.

The most blasphemous and dirty name on the continent.

People like Carl and Seth, leaders of notorious rebels, will have to stand down before the Demon King.

The conflicts between light and darkness that have existed since the beginning were different from the rebels themselves. Just hearing the word "Demon King" is an instinctive way of expressing resentment.

It seemed natural.

However, the ‘friends’ who gathered here did not mind Imir mentioning the Demon King. After all, a friend who became human called him "The Demon Lord."

Regardless of the status, no one cared about the political life or just the verb where life could end.

Obviously, the people gathered here are not just allied with the Maoist imir. There you can see that you are one step closer to working with the Demon King.

‘That's ridiculous. ’

Natalia smiles bitterly down the mask. Anyway, thanks to imir, the mood was better.

“Here is the mirror iron, Natalia will take care of many things on your behalf. ”

“Got it.”

After I finished talking, the banquet continued.

Everyone was familiar with the banquet while incredible food was being prepared in rural villages that didn't seem to be on the map.

It was a simple banquet with no dancing or music.

10,000, some of the maids who were in the middle of delivering food talked in a quite loving atmosphere.

“Have you heard of the war against the rebels? ”

“I don't think the emperor himself has any use for power. ”

“Isn't it good for us if the rebels continue to occupy the land? ”

“That's right. We won't even have eyes on us. ”

“This is our chance to expand the Demon King's power one step at a time. ”

Coming and going from the banquet was an inverse conspiracy. At least the Demon King's luck.

It is a serious inverse conspiracy that rises up one more drink than the Union or Crimson Rose, which is not a canal.

Natalia, who was standing in the corner and listening quietly instead of participating in the banquet, made a bitter smile again.

Natalia has only ever done the task of finding traitors, arresting and killing them, until she renounced her allegiance to the Empire for revenge.

Successful and unsuccessful, but as a result, we have found many traitors and sent many to be oxidized or executed.

But now that I look at the situation,

All the time seemed to be wasted.

The powerful people occupying one seat in the empire are plotting against the Demon King, but what part of the Alliance or Crimson Roz is there?

“... It doesn't matter now. ”

“What does it matter? ”

Natalia's gaze, which she didn't even know she was seeing, turns to Imir who approached her one day.

“Don't you want to have some fun together? ”

“Not interested. I don't think anyone would want to have dinner with a half-elf with a broken hand on their face. ”

“That's right. Can we go out for a minute? ”

Natalia, who understood that the two of you had something to say, went out quietly to follow imir.

“What do you think? My friends.”

“If it were me, I'd be here to arrest or kill Mojo Lee. ”

“Was it worth it? ”

“Everyone said they were in power. ”

“Yes, they joined together and Christian couldn't ignore and gave you up. ”

“And each person thought something was suspicious and asked to follow me, but the tailor

Died by your hand. ”

“There will be no backstabbing. With their power and my skill, I can handle that without problems. ”

“Did those in power pledge allegiance to the Demon King? ”

“That's what they believe. ”

“What does that mean? ”

“Facts and their beliefs mean there's a difference. ”

“Tell me more. ”

“I can't tell you anymore. ”

One thing was certain.

Imir did not regard them as‘ friends’ as he had said. Rather, it was obvious that they were only thinking of it as a tool. A tool horse that can be thrown away if it becomes useless.

Natalia would be the same. Natalia herself did not expect much from Imir. Revenge is important. I didn't think about how imir would use himself next.

Even if you are disposed of after you have finished revenge.

Imir smiles again, looking at Natalia like that.

“Don't worry. You're more precious than they are.

It exists. ”

“Of course you are.”

The talk raises her left hand, losing interest.
