Main Character Hides His Strength

86. The Merchant King in the Back Alley (3)

“What do you think?”

Across the street, Grizzly asked for it in a gentle tone.

Kim Sung-cheol reminded me of the simple fact that this old man was also a celestial merchant.

"Merchants."

Kim Sung-cheol took out five crates full of unmanned gold coins and placed them on the table.

When you raise the third box, the poor leg of the table cannot stand it and wiggles.

Kim Sung-cheol left the other two crates under his feet and opened his mouth.

“Are you satisfied with this? ”

“Hmm. That should be enough to hire mercenaries and assassins for our son-in-law.“ ”

“Hoho?”

“It's our son-in-law's idea. He predicted that if you have a lot of money but haven't spent it for a long time, you can use it without regrets. I didn't expect it to be God's writing, either. It's a good thing. Thanks to the enemies of the world, we've also dealt with malicious inventory. ”

You hear a chair fall backwards from the other side.

The old man appears to be on his feet.

“Follow me. I'll show you the information you sold in a bundle of malicious stock. ”

The old man left the room without a face, and walked slowly down the dark corridor.

The pace itself was slow, but the old man's legs were so long that the relative speed was fast.

Soon, the old man stood at the door made of steel and wood.

Kim Sung-cheol felt an unpleasant energy beyond the visit.

As my flesh rots, the unpleasant stench lingers on my nose.

The old man took out a handkerchief, blocked his nose and mouth, and nodded at Kim Sung-cheol.

“It's going to be awful. Well, not to surprise the marshal's steel heart. ”

The old man opens the door.

“Tsk.”

Bertelkia twitches in his chest.

Beyond the door lies a lump of red meat.

Kim Sung-cheol soon discovered that the lump of meat was a human, rotting body.

“Adele White..! Adele White..!"

The man who had a horrible disease worthy of being called the Celestial Body was shaking like a bug and calling him sequentially with a difficult pronunciation to understand the name of the person he knew well.

Embrace as much anger as the dreadful looks of it.

“What is this guy? ”

“He was our former appraiser. ”

Grizzly, the merchant king of darkness, looked back at Sung-cheol Kim and said in a low voice.

“The last white knight left in the world, now that Raise Heimer is dead. ”

Grizzly summons his servant to inject something into a man like a lump of meat.

Kim Sung-cheol was able to recognize that it was drugs.

“How did that happen? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked, watching Grizzly's men wrap the man in a clean cloth.

Grizzly glanced at the golden agenda and asked for a cigarette.

Familiar filtered cigarettes.

I must have gotten it at the Summon Plaza.

Grizzly takes a sip of a cigarette lighted on fire and opens his mouth with smoke.

“According to him, it was the work of the Witch Adelwhite, who lives in the Ghost Forest east of the realm of Rutheginia, or now of the Human Empire. ”

“Adele White...? ”

Kim Sung-cheol doubted his ears.

Living an eternal life and being outside the norm of a world unlike humans, she did this terrible thing. I couldn't believe it.

Above all, I couldn't understand Adelaide's intentions.

“I don't know. That's what he's claiming. ”

Grizzly kicks his tongue and now he stares at the man who has turned into a mummy. A fresh white cloth rushes into the yellow plantation.

“The leprosy is probably as cold as that disease. When I first came here, it wasn't that bad...”

“A terrible curse. ”

Kim Sung-cheol, who saw the hell he had while battling the battlefield, was also a terrible plague on this man.

Adele White put this curse on you? No way. She has lived an eternity of distraction in the haunted forest since time immemorial. Maybe he's listening to someone and making that noise. ’

A little while later, the man's ceremony covered in white cloth returns.

It seems that the energy of drugs alleviates the pain and has somewhat regained some reason.

Nevertheless, Kim Sung-cheol found that the man's eyes were still wet with cloudiness.

He already had a lot of drugs he couldn't handle.

“Water… water…! ”

The rotting man demanded water.

Grizzly's men take out the skins and give the water to the mummy man.

The mummy man's hand suddenly grabs Grizzly's servant's wrist.

“Ugh... Ugh!!! ”

The face of the man on the wrist distorted in horror.

He swings his arm at the mummy, spraying the man's hand and picking up his sleeve.

The red pus and spots were spreading on the man's arms like food.

“Aaaah! No!! ”

A terrible scream echoes through the room.

Another of Grizzly's men draws a sharp blade and says he's sorry, and slashes the rotting man's arm into a dagger.

Tuck.

The red rotting arm falls to the ground, then heads toward the blood.

White-colored parasitic worms wriggle on the bleed.

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol didn't say anything, but he was feeling surprised.

I've never heard of such a horrible illness so early.

‘There is a plague like this. The horror of the plague is terrible, but that contagion is truly terrifying. ’

Grizzly's men take the confused man away, losing his arms.

The man Miara takes in the water inside the leather unit in a frenzy of any kind, regardless of circumstances.

Kim Sung-cheol could see some of the water he inhaled leaking out with his disgusting pus from the hole in his cheek.

“Hnng…”

It was disgusting enough to hear Bertelkia die.

“Luckily, it's not airborne. Don't worry. Let's start talking. If you're an old man who has a few days to live with me, you're not going to last long. ”

Kim Sung-cheol nodded his head and turned his head toward the mummy man and asked in a bold tone.

“Is this your White Sage clan? ”

The mummy man was dumbfounded, then later reacted to Kim Sung-cheol's voice, nodded and bandaged, and opened his mouth, rubbing a hole in the cheek with only a few fingers left.

“Yes.”

His pronunciation was unclear and his eyes were shaking in anxiety.

On the other hand, the man screamed at Kim Sung-cheol. To spread the plague.

Kim Sung-cheol pushed the man against the wall just by swinging his sleeve strongly.

“Shhh... Shhh...”

The man on the ground thunders with a groan.

Kim Sung-cheol stared at him indifferently and asked.

“Do you know Raise Himer? ”

The man who heard that suddenly raised his head and began to laugh strangely.

“Raise Himer..? I know, I know. The youngest daughter of a red rooftop. ”

Kim Sung-cheol coldly observed his face and posture. It was too soon for me to decide whether his appearance was false or not.

Kim Sung-cheol put the red thread of God's writing out in front of the man.

The man's dim eyes glisten on the floor.

He frowns and speaks in a murky voice towards Grizzly.

“Huh... That's what I'm feeling. Hey there, Governor Grizzly. Why don't you give me a job these days? Even if I look like me, my abilities are still valid. So give me a job and put a blind woman in her room like before. ”

Kim Sung-cheol stared at him and said in a cool voice.

“Achin Sigurea's Record. ”

It was a short speech.

However, the word was enough to accompany the man who was stumbling on the floor.

“H-how did you...?! ”

A surprise appeared in the man's eyes.

“Don't you think you're one of us? It can't be. It's the Summoner's hair.”

For the first time, the man was being serious.

Kim Sung-cheol gazed indifferently at him and said in a bold tone.

“I am Kim Sung-cheol. ”

“Seung-cheol Kim?! Enemies of the world...?! ”

“I have mastered the ability of the reader to solve disasters. So you don't need any of your petty abilities. ”

“Th-that can't be...”

The last pride of the man in the mummy was crumbling.

The value of the last reader in the world will be ruthlessly destroyed in a form only those who know it.

“Why did the Cromgard destroy your tribe's village? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked.

The mummy man had no strength or will to resist anymore.

Drug-intoxicated, he spoke out of his mouth.

“We don't know why. But the elders said, Chromium Gale is a creature of evil will. ”

“ ……. ”

“He killed all the villagers except the youngest Raise Himer in the village. ”

“Why did you save Raise Heimer? Does she have any special powers? ”

“There is no such thing. He was a very ordinary boy in the tribe. But he was the youngest and most gentle man in the village. That's why Chromgard kept her alive. To make it your own tool... Cough! ”

The mummy man clears his throat.

The bloody saliva in the cough was writhing with a white worm.

“The enemy of the world, anyway. Now that you're here, I have something to tell you. ”

The man said in a different voice.

Kim Sung-cheol nodded, seeing a cold condensation of anger in his blurred eyes.

“… tell me. ”

“There's only one thing I want to say. Adele White. It is the wickedness of the damned woman. Huff!”

The man coughed violently, whether it was because of talking a lot or because of the energy of drugs. First I drooled, then I vomited blood.

Kim Sung-cheol asked, feeling the awful stench.

“Do you think Adelwhite cursed you? ”

“I'm not thinking. Enemies of the world. See for yourself if you wish. You have what it takes to see my status window, right? ”

Kim Sung-cheol pulled the scroll out of the Soul Warehouse during anti-Semitism.

Lesser magic scroll to see the opponent's status window.

It was a useful item at a time when it was not very strong, but it was rarely used after gaining the power of God.

Kim Sung-cheol tore the scroll.

The enchantment rises above his eyes, marking the maze man's status window in front of his vision.

Kim Sung-cheol noticed one thing.

‘No, is this...?! ’

There was a deep wrinkle in Kim Sung-cheol's forehead.

[Curse]

Adelwhite dusk plague (metastatic, leading to death)

The curse must show the caster.

The curse of the Mira Man was engraved with the name Adelaide White.

But this alone does not define Adelwhite as having this curse.

I can't rule out the possibility of Dongmyung.

Beyond the agonizing ritual of Kim Sung-cheol, I heard the laughter of a miserably distorted man.

“Adele White... that damn witch is in league with Cromgard. Don't forget to spread the word. How wicked those pitiful wretches who fought evil gods...! ”

The mummy man repeatedly laughed and coughed and closed his eyes.

He's not dead. He's just confused.

“Are you satisfied now? ”

Grizzly looks bored and asks.

Kim Sung-cheol nodded with a expressionless face.

The door is closed.

The darkness in the hallway covered Kim Sung-cheol's face, but not as much as his eyes that were flashing with suspicion.

‘Everything is chaotic. ’

“You okay?"

Bertelgia cautiously asks.

Kim Sung-cheol didn't answer.

He was seriously concerned about one question that he had been carrying for a long time, but never intended to be conscious of.

"Where in the world did this world go wrong? ’

The feeling of grief that I had forgotten for a moment began to dominate him again.

The heartbeat changed subtly.

*

A harbor of quick-air aircraft has arrived.

Workers on the pier who saw a beautiful airstrip with Imperial nationalities must have anticipated that the passengers on the airstrip were the elders of the imperial highway.

However, it was a young woman who was still young, who was still young.

He's got black hair and a plain face. With her appearance that she was a Summoner at first glance, she responded with a brief question of belonging and identity management.

“Nothing.”

She gives the documents decorated by the Empire to the manager.

The guards' eyes widen.

"The Imperial Monumental Defense Commander...?!" This young Summoner?! ’

With the astonishing guards behind her, someone put a harbor landscape in her straight eyes under her feet.

‘Sung-cheol Kim, why did you come to Illeboro? I wasn't planning on it. ’

She came to this land to question her.

She jumps to the ground in a light stroke and walks into the streets of thousands of passers-by.

A huge wall hangs over the wall and catches her eye.
