To Deprive a Deprived Person

Episode 113: Marauder

A group of about ten people were running through the silence with darkness covering the world.

Each had his face covered with a cloth, and despite whether he was using the magic of dark vision or in the dark, he was not lost in footsteps.

"I guess there's no mistake over here, huh?

"Don't worry, I'm looking down."

"I hope so... it's a big job this time"

"Well, I know you're worried. Anyway, 300 white gold coins is a big job.

And it's all Cummer's receptionists and adventurers that annoy me. I struggled because I didn't want to share information. "

One of the men spits as he pulls down the cloth on his face as he looks abominable.

"Maybe it's a tough place for strangers.

The place was famous for its haunted mansion, okay? And why does Cummer's nobleman and bandit guild have a treasure in front of them called Dryard, even though they keep their fingers shut? This time my client is the Viscount of the city Samantha, isn't he?

"Looks like a guy named Yu is making out with Count Muss of Cummer. So it looks like Kammer's nobility and organization can't move either."

"Time to stop chatting. I can see the mansion."

Despite the fact that the mansion covered with trees was in the dark in front of the men, it looked clear.

"Don't feel that way. The guy named Yu has disappeared and his crew in the mansion is about to collapse. Assuming there's a guy named Yu Rumor, he's not our adventurer who just recently got C-ranked. Two C-ranks, one E-rank, and they're all women, right? Black Wolf in the garden can sleep with incense."

The men were so confident in their arms that even from the top of the cloth covering their faces the corners of their mouths were raised, as did the fellow men.

"I'm guessing you've arranged a carriage?

"Dude, you worry too much. I'm letting you lurk in the woods. I don't care if you wake up with a horse ringing."

"Stop."

Tension runs on the men when one of the men controls it by hand. The man who told me to stop was a man with a job in scouting, a man who had detected numerous crises beforehand and prevented the party from being wiped out.

"What's up?

"There's no grass growing from here. It's like they dug it up recently.

And... there's a reaction to 'Sovereignty'. "

In the words of the scoundrel men the men take their weapons. There are people who are nervous or overexcited the other way around who are inexperienced when it comes to fighting, but the men were all calm about whether it was going to be rough.

Indeed, as the scout man put it, from about 100 metres at a distance from the mansion, the sight of the grassland that had lasted until then was gone and unnatural was spreading before his eyes.

The men proceed vigilantly, suddenly soil thrives, and from within, skeletons wrapped in iron swords and iron shields crawl up one after the other.

"What the hell... are you going to be the Keeper? And Bone Fighter on Bone Knight... Damn, we're not gonna talk."

One Bourne Knight points his finger toward the city camer instead of telling him not to go any further, but if the men ignore the warning, the Bourne Fighter will be slashed.

"Don't use magic."

"How can you use magic like a rank one bonefighter?"

While tapping lightly, the man waves his sword down to the brain without waving the Bourne Fighter's sword. One Bourne Knight and one Bourne Fighter after another are defeated.

"Ma'am, this is it. Let's move on."

When the men resume walking just because they exercise well, the dirt begins to thrive again.

"Not again... Skeleton Fighter on Skeleton Night"

"Don't panic. I don't suppose he's as good as Skeleton Knight in Rank 3."

As with the men when they butchered Bourne Knight, Skeleton Knight and the others resume their steps more vigilantly than earlier when cleaned up easily. The soil begins to flourish once again after going about twenty meters. I have a bad feeling about the men running.

"To Red Skeleton Night S... Skeleton Lizard Man... Red Skeleton Night is Rank 4... Skeleton Lizard Man is Rank 5"

"I noticed... the demons that show up every time they go about 20 meters from now on aren't getting stronger... I guess the next demons that come out aren't rank 6"

"That's not what I know.

"You must have said you looked down!

"If you're arguing, hey, hey! These guys are working together."

Redskeleton Night and Skeleton Lizardman were being attacked by the men as they collaborated, and the men were no longer as easily defeated as they had earlier been. The men are split in two by helping with the upset as well.

"And it's a retreat! Once we withdraw!

"Stay! You're leaving us!?

Damn it! We have to move on. Let's go! "

Break up with those who flee toward the city of Cummer and those who advance toward the Mansion.

"Shit, he's coming after me!

Red Skeleton Knights are approaching from behind those fleeing toward the Mansion. Everyone in the men thought they couldn't do it anymore. That's when the Redskeleton Knights stop moving.

"Hey, what is it? They stopped on their own."

"Apparently this is the travel range. Hehe... we win! I'm not giving the guy who ran away his share."

I sighed safely at the Red Skeleton Knights as they returned, looking back toward the mansion, and the men ran into battle. For at some point before the gate stood a battle axe on his right hand and a great hammer on his left, wrapped in black armor.

"Yes... when... no, if you look closely, you're just a goblin with a big figure! You freak me out."

When the men realize that those who stand in front of the gate are goblins, they regain their composure. I wondered if there were any Rank 6 demons out there, and I couldn't help but be alert to the men because they are the weakest demons goblins.

"You're prepared to die that you've come this far.

Fine. I want to see how strong some of them have gotten, so just fine. "

The men are surprised that Goblin spoke. But I didn't have time to be surprised by the men.

"Goblin Talks - Bebo"

"Hih! Run - Gahoo"

One is crushed vertically by the Battle Axe, one in two by the Great Hammer. The rest of the men will stand up, but in just a few matches they will follow a similar fate to the men ahead.

"Hmm. Isn't it too weak to tell if something's gotten stronger?"

Cro whines in a disappointing tone, but the men he defeated were all those recognized for their strength as C-rank adventurers.

"All right. You'll be fine if we get this far. Anyway, once we get back to the inn, we're gonna rebuild the plan."

The men start to laugh out of relief when they see the gates of the city Cummer.

"That's impossible."

"Who!

In front of the men was a man over two meters - standing as Joseph looked asleep.

"Huh... don't make me work even though I'm sleepy. You couldn't even get into the garden, could you? Hifumi no... one would be enough."

"I don't know who you're talking about!

"Stay! That's Joseph!

It was too late to stop it. Joseph snaps two necks in an instant. The remaining man could not move out of fear or tremble.

"I know you don't have to tell me, but if you run, I'll kill you, okay?

The man shook his neck vertically so many times that his neck might be cut a thousand times.

The earth was expanding as far as it could see, but the soil was rotten, and the air was starving by temper. It was so vast a space that no one would realize this was a labyrinth if they were brought in blocking their sight.

"A fool... ignores a warning, so he dies."

What's wrong with Yu's whining? Momo tilts his neck all the time.

"No, it's nothing. Still... you're stronger."

At Momo's feet were stacked like mountains of demonic bodies inhabiting the 46th layer of "Enrio of the Decay Realm".

Momo's feathers had previously been two, but now they were four, and his rank had risen steeply.

Momo turns his back all the time saying eh, but when he realizes he was called you, not his name, he slaps Yu's cheek with a petite slap if you're angry.

"What the hell. Did you get mad because you didn't call me by my name? I'm sorry."

Momo gets in a mood as soon as Yu kisses Momo's cheek lightly and puts him to sleep posh on Yu's head.

"You can't even be here. Now when you look at us, you run away. We're gonna dive deeper down."

Momo goes straight to sleep over Yu's head when he raises his right hand to Ha-yi. When Momo's little sleeping breath was heard, Yu grinned and proceeded towards the lower level.
