Skeleton Soldier Couldn't Protect the Dungeon

432 Blind Moon, Sunset Flower (9)

The ship docked at the port of Abydonia, north of the United Nations.

Continents on the other side of the long isthmus.

The Alliance is my first time.

I've met Allied forces who have invaded the Empire.

Put on a different pen.

The first experience is to set foot in a society created by them through the system of voting and parliament.

What kind of place?

This society has a better answer than all of its rights to the superhuman Brahms, which is so bizarrely liberal.

It's not much to look forward to assassinating a necromancer who doesn't share their intentions and selling their graves to heroes.

It was when I landed the anchor in the port of Abydonia until the last ship of the fleet.

“It... will now be on. ”

The captain looked at the sky starting to turn red and said,

As the sky shook, the lamps began to light up one by one.

The sunset and lanterns sparkled on the surface. The lamp remained the same, but the waves pushed by the wind caused the light to dance on the water.

Fishes in the harbor ran into a blip, lured by the lights that came through my body, but eventually fell into a ditch without catching anything.

From time to time, light was transmitted precisely towards the fish that had opened its mouth and leapt towards the light.

Whenever it does, it soaks to the satisfaction of forgetting in three seconds and glows like blood.

It drips back into the sea.

“Three continents... night vision," they say. It's about three of the city's big night views, I'd say. ”

Captain Nexmond scowls at the landscape as if it were a surprise.

“While it is commendable to build an auto-lighting system, Let's go.”

I set my feet on solid ground behind the scenery as if it were paint.

Nexmond walks along the darkening harbour streets as if he had memorized it.

I've been sailing for a long time, but I never felt tired at all.

Along with Deputy Michi, the other crew members had relaxed in the harbor, but the captain seemed to have not accumulated any fatigue after digesting the same schedule.

“You don't look tired at all after you've commanded the voyage. ”

“That's ……. ”

The captain hesitates for a moment.

There is a reason, of course.

Under a long blue coat.

As Pearl looks at the corner of his coat, the captain rolls down his shirt like he's opening a window.

Follow.

“An artificial heart. ”

Bang, bang. Bang.

Before the sound of the pulse pumping blood spread through the damp night air, the correct answer was taken.

“Do you... know... this? ”

The captain's gaze shakes.

“About four years? ”

The shaking eyes suddenly startled me.

The stuttering tongue won't be able to spit out the next word.

“H-how do you know... about me?" ”

< I should have died 4 years ago, but thanks to him I'm still alive…….

How do you know?

You've told me everything before.

“Well, it's just... ”

It's best to spit it out at times like this.

It's best to make them think for themselves.

“I think we've got a whole other part of it. ”

Upper body more than half.

Many of the lower body is woven with cold metals and special fibers.

“I……. ”

The captain was a horse.

“I plan to survive until the world changes. To survive.

I've changed it. ”

You do not need to know the words "time and effort."

I suddenly remembered Brahms.

Changing bodies involves rejection in the instinctive part.

Those who actively did so had a feeling that what they wanted out of life was outside of them.

‘The great, the great... …. ’

“Let's go.”

The port of Abydonia is so long that ships dock on either side of the road.

Wooooo

In the meantime, a giant crane unloads the cargo.

It carries exactly what's on a big ship at a fairly fast rate.

“That kind of crane may seem like a charm to you……. ”

[Mechanical Engineering Lv.3!]

[Automatically trigger machine analysis…….]

[Insufficient Engineering Level.]

[You can only guess the basic structure at the current level.]

‘No, I don't know. ’

Of course, he acted like he recognized the age of his prosthetic heart, which is a natural reaction.

Nexmond spoke.

“I didn't even dream of that when I was a kid. People often get hurt carrying their own luggage. I did the same thing. With the money I saved up, I bought a very small boat, made a few successful trades...

Buying a big boat.... ”

Nexmond wets his senses.

It would never be that simple, even if you say it like that.

I can't believe you bought a boat last night.

What kind of life have they been living?

“I'm up here now. ”

It was then.

“Mister!”

The boys who were obsessed with untying the seams on the boat ropes rushed to Nexmond in the dark.

“Captain, are you here? ”

“How was your voyage? ”

“Tell me something fun! ”

The skinny, scraggly children surrounded the captain.

Nexmond pulls the coins out of their hands and places them on the palms of their hands, exactly one by one.

“I'll be back in a minute. I have an important guest with me right now. ”

“Yes!”

I bite the children back and Nexmond guides me again.

“Do you know each other? ”

“Because I was that kid, too. ”

It tells me that I had to live with pickpockets in the harbor because I couldn't even get them when I was a child.

Woof...

A space between cranes for loading and unloading.

[Where do you need to be trampled?]

[Remove the superstitions from your throne and execute them immediately!]

[To a world without privilege!]

Is it because it's a port close to the Empire?

‘Look who it says. ’

There were phrases everywhere that denounced identity and shouted the dominance of the coalition system.

However, the seafarers in the harbor carrying small crates on steamboats did not seem to be happier than the citizens of the Empire.

Clothes, looks, and their meals were the same.

[Everyone is free and equal from birth.]

I glanced at the big slogan.

Not only does that include magic like me, but humans don't actually seem to be that equal.

A little embarrassed.

I remembered the boys I saw earlier.

Isn't the nursing home that Slime used to rob the ashes and run abundantly?

I remember the faces of the children in the nursing home who were making a clear smile without any shade.

Closer to auction house from the harbor

The soldiers stand tighter and tighter.

Dock workers who showed their faces were inspected by the guards or stopped at all, but there were no soldiers who wanted to inspect me with Nexmond, even though I was wearing a helmet.

There are more and more wealthy human beings.

I can see buildings that can be visited by such people.

The landscape of the streets is getting different.

“… disappointed? ”

It's very noticeable as a merchant.

I hesitated for a moment and vomited.

“Just, it doesn't look much different from the Empire. It's a little trivial for a neighborhood that talks about equality and freedom. ”

I said he nodded.

“That's right. The ideals that make us noble, the glorious hope.... When faced with nature, it often results in more devastating consequences than the reality of trying to overcome them. ”

“But I think it's... different from having an ideal. Even if it's one step apart now, it's clearly different from the hopeless one to walk forward. ”

You sound convinced, but somehow you sound like you're brainwashing yourself.

Of course, there was no reason to hold on to the fact that he didn't want to make it cosmetic or conceal it.

There were tricky prosecutors when entering the Auction House, but there were no soldiers on the list or stopping Nexmond.

“The Projection of Liberty… Nexmond. Attend with escort. ”

I went straight through.

The entrance to the Auction House is uncomfortable.

There were several narrow entrances to prevent people from meeting each other, but the inside was very wide.

Unlike the workers who visited the docks and the children who were untied from the ropes, there were other humans in the auction house.

People dressed in stylish dresses, basic colors, jewelry, and even shoes with crystal embedded in luxurious straps were smiling in the auction room.

I don't want a lot of money either.

I don't know how I made all that wealth.

It looks just like the Empire.

Rather, it feels a lot more rash.

Anyway.

I didn't come all this way to see those people.

One objective.

Hit and drop.

Where is she?

I kept looking around.

Some people go to parties.

They dressed up like pirates and clowns and giggled at each other, and dressed up neatly.

“You're feeding me a drink first. ”

Nexmond explained that it was to make people make money.

“Seasonal fruit cocktails! ”

“30 Years Porte Wine! Agricultural ripeness is a sweet, oak-scented fortified wine. Don't miss the soft vanilla scent. ”

Various alcoholic beverages and simple drinks were carried around the auction house on a tray.

People you've never met get drunk.

We talked and kissed and wedged our arms between people who were just watching.

Music was played as if to encourage drinking, and there were musicians who danced around the auction house.

Is it too much of a rush? ’

Looks like an important auction hosted by the Krexors.

I thought all the events would be included because of the ambitious human being.

Maybe it was a false guess.

It's vague.

You can't give up your sense of humor all the time, in fact, because of your intuition.

I don't know why I would.

At first, I looked only at it with my eyes, but I looked around the auction house calmly, away from Nexmond.

Humans often dressed up close to disguises, so I looked carefully at every one of them.

But I really don't see it.

I killed a pilot. I've been walking around.

Nexmond soon notices what I'm about to do and quietly asks.

“Are you looking for something? ”

“I don't know… a little…. ”

I'll tell you.

But it's actually a little embarrassing to reveal your plan to just steal the key.

“But the more I look at it... the richer the empire is. ”

I didn't want to talk back.

“By the way…… ”

While the captain began to explain to the captain, knowing that it was not what he was really curious about.

The nobles of the Empire are who they are.

Clearly distinguished from the lower class.

The people of the Marquis family are wearing robes, so the erls and the barons can't dare to overlook them.

However, there is a historic family in the Free Union, but the upstream show their wealth much more battle-wise because there are no clearly defined and distinct stairways.

Top-notch clothing.

Larger gems.

Artisan's Shoes.

New collections that sell to regulars for the first time in a season.

The Duke, the Marquis, the Earl, the Bird.

Unions without formal identification have an intense obsession with wealth size and detail instead.

“Above all, east. ”

“Eastern…? ”

“Yes, because the wealthy of the coalition struggle to find a value they cannot. That's money. ”

“I mean, if you break the path to 'real', it's worth every word to me. ”

“Oh."

I didn't know that.

Like the captain said, it was the people in Oriental silk who were getting more attention than anyone else here.

A woman dressed in blue embroidered threads with birds on red silk.

Two women in black silk clothes with white flowers blooming from under their feet sit side by side and receive hot stares from the left.

“Have you seen the black oil? It's too bad we didn't save the beauty of the Eastern Masquerade. I have to ask you to change the cast. ”

“That's right. You're telling me that playing Gravy is the worst? All of it distorted with affection, so I don't feel like I'm ending up winning death. Phew, I'm so pissed off just thinking about it. ”

Suddenly, a woman dressed in red breathed out, waving a debt with a large owl's face on a blue background.

“Ha, the winds of the east craftsman's debt are sweet, too. ”

Glug!

A woman in black silk, white.

I unfolded a faint cloud of debt.

The moment I saw the debt unfolding.

The eyes of the woman in red were wide open.

“That's... quiet...? ”

“Hohoho……. ”

A woman in black breathes a gentle breeze into her ear with a fan.

What's he doing?

It seems odd to flinch with the wind in your ears with a fan.

I wonder what kind of sickness they have.

Surprisingly.

A woman in an ambient watercolor debt approaches this way.

“Oh my, you must be Captain Nexmond. How are you doing? When are you planning to head east again? What mysterious and beautiful things will you bring...? ”

Nexmond nods slightly with a hospitality smile.

“Oh, I'm sorry, but I'm going to take a little break from sailing for a while. ”

“Really? What a shame.... No one travels to the east safely like you... But I'm sorry.

Who's next to you? ”

“Wait a minute.”

I suddenly stopped talking and interrupted.

I can't take it anymore.

“Do you know someone named Karin Krexor? ”

The woman in front of her eyes seems like quite an influential human being.

You may know Karin, the high status.

But...

As soon as I heard Karin's name, the woman's expression hardened.

“Haha…. ”

The woman stepped back from her squat, expressing her cheeky face.

“You're... looking for him.... ”

The user stares at something, but the target disappears without an answer.

“What...? ”

I was going to ask Nexmond.

While he shrugs his shoulders, the auction begins soon.

“Dearly beloved! Welcome to the special auction hosted by the Krexor family! The theme of today's auction is the East! ”

Excitement erupts.

“Rare products from the East await a choice! Who will win today? Let's get started right away! First... ”

A woman with long hair appeared, a picture of a man's burning hell, a bottle of monsters, a bronze statue, a pottery, well-made armor, and a fine sword.

Participants are enthusiastic and expensive, but only boring.

‘I shouldn't have come. ’

The sword and armor are overflowing, and the painting

I wasn't interested in it in the first place

A little magical energy wasn't enough to carry around a work of sensitivity at all.

It was time to wake up.
