Located in a remote place, the warehouse area was dark, but it smelled like a human being. I can see men burning here and there, or people crowding around burning cigarettes.
- Quite spacious.
We went deeper along Hildegard. The more you enter, the fewer you get, but the fewer you see. Are they attending the rally?
"Looks like the rally attendees. Let's have a rally deep down today."
"I see."
The warehouse area felt almost like a maze because it was dark. I would be lost if I were not a worker here.
When I went inside completely, I saw the people gathering in front of me.
"Is that it?"
Claudie said.
"Yes. I think it's over there... I can feel the demon's energy nearby. Cat, are you going to kill him as soon as you get there?"
"No. Let's start with the investigation."
I can't catch a tail without killing it right away.
Of course, it would be easy to kill demons with Hildegard's ability, but if a partner in a yard where they are called heads suddenly gets killed with a string of sausages, they will notice.
In the worst case, you might fold up your business and run away.
I need to hit as many demonic bastards as I can, so it's hard.
"Everything I said is true..."
Hildegard lowered his head as he said that he had become depressed.
"No, we need to find out what those bastards are doing and kill them."
"Aah! Now you believe me!"
"Be quiet because you believed me."
"Hehe."
The gathering place was a fact, so I believed it. Again, God smiled at Hildegard.
"It's fucking blatant. That's enough. It's not good to see."
Winia told Hildegard that I was a god.
"Yes, I'll be quiet."
"Ugh..."
He replied with a smile.
Anyway, the people wandering around were walking into the building in front of each other. Shall we go in, too? I saw a man standing at the entrance like a guard. Seeing the silhouette makes me big.
"Hey, Hildegard."
"Yes, Neet!"
"Do you have any qualifications to go in there?"
"It seems to be limited to human workers. But there's no problem with me. Humans like that can't get my hypnotism."
You're such a fucking daemon.
"Let's go."
Immediately ahead of Hildegard, he approached the building. I watched some people go in, and then I stood at the door.
"... three women?"
The guard who was leaning against the wall with his arms extended, looked at us and said,
"Where did you come from? Are they employees of the tea house?"
"Shut up."
"What?!"
When Hildegard naturally bears a guardian, the guard lowers his head. - Bloop. His mouth spits. He mutters like a man on a pill and vomits his words with a seizure.
"Ugh. Ah.. Fuhihee. Drackchaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!"
What the hell did you do to him?
"What did you do?"
"No big deal. The hypnotic magic you saw last time. I'll wake up soon, so get in there."
You're versatile.
We went into the building with a freepass.
Some basement staircase welcomed us as we went in, and inside we hear people's voices with orange lights. If you're going to have a rally, you have to start a fire in the basement.
I went straight down.
"... more than you think?"
Winia looked around, she said. Underground was wider than I thought. Probably a warehouse building. They must have kept the logistics underground. It seems to be chosen as a gathering place because it is now empty.
"That's it."
And people were as wide as they could fit in. Rarely, the lamps and torches that were lit made it difficult for the attendees to see each other.
Clothes are worn out and everyone looks tired.
This reminds me of Elise and her eternal life when she went to the rally site. Of course, the workers here are incomparably honest with the poor at the time. Unlike those who have no hope or will, they have a willingness to work.
But what does Elise do for a living these days?
I'm frustrated because I don't have the means to get in touch.
I think he's working hard with his temple warrior friends because he's probably surrounded by demons. It's daemon peak time, so it's the busiest time.
- Woong Sung Woong.
Anyway, the rally site was chaotic.
There are as many babbling noises as there are. I grabbed Claudie and Winia's hand and dug into the corner. I went to the corner and covered them with my body.
Just looking at it, the women seemed to stand out shortly.
"Oh, Kat. Are you trying to protect Mama now?"
"Of course."
Claudie and Winia stand out in the first place.
Pink hair distinguishes between men and women and shows liver, but I've never seen purple. Both are beautiful enough for the first time, and Winia is so big that she attracts Aggro wherever she goes. Even with the hood on, Mimi can't hide it.
"Me, too, I want to be protected by Kat. Can I go back?"
Hildegard said because he left Claudie and Winia behind me.
Protection is fucking protection.I 'm not hitting you right now.
"You crawl out of my side, you let me know."
"Yes!"
I look around like that and wait for a while, so someone appears on one side.
- Silence.
The noise that roared through it as a sign sank instantly.
"..."
It is amazing that even the military barricades can keep this silence on a plate that doesn't close Agari if they gather as a group and provide mental education.
This means that attendees value this gathering. If this is the power of the devil, it would be quite dangerous. No matter how superstitious the world is, it becomes difficult if the numbers of superstitious people come together like this.
"Good to see you, heroes of the city."
The man who climbs the stage looks around the left side as he chatters about the clouds.
"Oh, oh!"
"Long live the workers!"
"Hail!"
Then a shout bursts out from there. Windmills? The basement is full of screams, whether it's contagious or not.
"Oh, fuck, that's so loud."
"Cat, that man has borrowed the power of the devil."
Hildegard whispered a little in my ear.
"Borrowed the power of the devil?"
"Yes. You may not know it, but you're catching people's minds with a few words right now. Maybe you got your powers. I've been thinking about that ever since the devil approached me."
"Yes?"
"Maybe I've drawn a gene that amplifies power somewhere in this basement. This atmosphere and a little faith. And it's easy to bend the lowly humans, if you will. And the power of the devil is involved."
I'm almost an expert at what I say.
Hildegard seems to be gathering better information than he thought.
"Do you know anything about that bastard?"
"I've recognized this because I'm a man who keeps on giving speeches. He's probably looking for a market place in the city. I borrowed all the power of the devil and wanted that status. I ate it completely."
This was Hildegard's assessment of the speaker.
I have a certain level of faith when I look at the neat part.
Well, there's nothing demons can give you but power or power. I bet you roasted him with bait. Standing on the statue, he silences people and says, "What is the word of this day, education?"
"Even today! Even today, the heroes of Odville have sacrificed themselves from morning to night to revitalize the city's economy! Bones! Even if the muscles complain of pain! And even if you're tired! The heroes have won everything and come here! Only for the well-being of the city!"
I was quite enthusiastic about whether the words made sense.
"Oh! Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Hail Odville!"
But what they did was they asked us to make money, and I don't think we did it for the well-being of the city.
It's just a community ritual, or something like that.
Because of the atmosphere of the seat, the repercussions of the speech seemed enormous. Because there are weaknesses in the way that the original person stands up.
"Ooooo!"
Perhaps these masses of workers who attended the rally believed that they were truly sacrificing for the city.
That's why they're so scary.
Drowning is the most dangerous thing in the world.
"But! What the heroes have gained today has truly been a trivial task! I sacrifice my life like this with all my body and time! The city only exploits heroes to find out! Even if you give us a little more concessions, we can eat a fuller one!"
Oh, fuck!
You're right!
Adventurer Guild Bastards! Give me more money!
"That's right!"
"You're right!"
"Son of a bitch!"
The workers were enthusiastic and each one uttered a profanity.
"Ammi blasted motherfuckers! Fucking Ninghimi!"
I also yelled alongside them and scolded an absurd society. Adventurer Guild asks for more money! Winia stabbed me in the back because she was screaming.
"Nigger...? What are you doing now?"
"Camouflage. Stand still and stand out."
"Oh, I see. I thought another dumb nigga went over the hall."
"Uh-huh, that's impossible."
I've been joking.
"This is all because the mayor of the city was incompetent and corrupt! We must resist! For your original rights! For the world of workers! Gentlemen! Give me this power!"
"Waaaaaaaaah!!"
Such a fanatical atmosphere ended the rally.
What's this city mayor doing because he's elected? Voting? But there can be no such thing as the right to vote for workers who are poor enough to attend rallies.
Well, with the support of a lot of people, there may be significant consequences... but we need to investigate a little more.
"Cat, let's get out."
"Draw."
The time has passed. We left the cellar quietly mixed into the cracks of the workers. Each of the workers paired up and went to a bar with a view to their own complaint.
"Hmm."
From the looks of it, it seems to be a bit serious.
The world I live in is an extraordinary spectacle of blood and flesh, but it's peaceful as it is.
But the last Demon Gate incident was a hell of a redhead. No, the Dukes have been trying to infiltrate.
They take advantage of this opportunity to turn the human world upside down and take their own path. A case like this may not be the only one here... there are crusaders, but there is a shortage of troops.
Maybe something big's gonna happen soon?
It would be quite dangerous to manipulate people in this way to create something similar to a religious organization. Whatever happens, the group in which the suspicious bastard sits as president is a bomb. The demons could swallow up such an organization at a crucial moment.
As soon as the power of the devil was involved, a similar cult was created in an instant. I think this needs to be suppressed early.
It is an essential story to put in the report for Saint Cadia.
When writing a report, it is necessary to inflate the case as much as possible and make it a damn big deal.
"How's it going, Cat? It's a big deal, isn't it? If you solve this big problem, you'll definitely get a big reward."
It's obvious.
"Huhu, if you get that reward, just think about it for a second."
"I still appreciate it."
"Ahhh... I appreciate you saying that. So what do you plan to do now?"
Once the basement is completely empty, you should go back down and secure something like a water stamp. I need to record what I saw and heard today. And he who borrowed the power of the devil is not the only one.
"I need more research."
"Can we come back tomorrow at the same time?"
"Do that. There's nothing more useful than your help right now."
"Uh-huh! Thank you, Cat! See you tomorrow, then!"
"Oh, wait. I'm gonna stay down there and take another look."
"Yes, yes. You're looking for evidence, aren't you? Just trust me."
This son of a bitch helps.
Standing behind the building, his personality was soon completely lost.
Now let's go downstairs.
