Chapter 1228
Episode 1228. Who is doing this now?
Most people are not free from prejudice.
The same goes for Prad Taylor, the guild leader of Black Jack, who has been worn out in the underworld.
He had the perception that a person wearing a knight’s uniform or long sword was a wizard wearing a swordsman’s robe or carrying a staff.
There are magic swordsmen in the world, so of course it’s a prejudice, but anyway, according to his standards, everyone here was a knight.
Knights – unlike magicians who can control minds – can only judge by what they see.
That’s why Prad Taylor was able to perform a shameless performance in front of Count Helio Lagoa.
Just in time, Baron Todd Graham, the chief of security for the Southern District, came out to help with a word of regret.
“We, the Southern District Security Guard, have thoroughly searched the Blackjack Guild and its surroundings. There was no record of any kidnapping or illegal transactions.”
Then, as if they had waited, Norton Hemes, the deputy guild leader, and Sutton, the secretary, spoke one word at a time.
“Our guild is working to clear the stigma of the past.”
“It is true. Believe me!”
After the four of them finished talking, Elio took a step forward.
“Are all of you of the same opinion as the guild leader?”
“yes!”
“That’s right!”
The deputy guild leader and office manager nodded their heads, showing no suspicion at all.
“You’re going to give up your neck, right?”
“….”
At that moment, as the deputy guild leader and the manager’s throats say, ‘Gulp!’ and passed
It’s embarrassing for some reason, but I couldn’t bear to say no in this situation.
Elio nodded and asked the guild leader.
“I command in the name of the son of the empty field (Gong Yaja) and the disciple of the ageless Pureum (Cheongbulno), the southern sky pond (Yeonnamcheon). Please answer my questions honestly. Did you kidnap the daughter of mana stone appraiser Andrea Jeter in Blackjack?”
Then, Prad Taylor, the head of the Blackjack Guild, replied with an absurd face.
“Are we? yes that’s right that’s what we did uh? What am I talking about now…”
“Where is the kidnapped child?”
“I heard it was… in a lumberyard. no no It’s really… not really! Trust me!”
“Is the child alive?”
“No! Please… someone out of my mouth… ordered Sutton to incinerate. Oh, no! Who is doing this now?”
Embarrassed, Prad Taylor belatedly covered his mouth with his hand, but it was already too late.
Elio’s eyes turned to the two people except for the guild leader.
“Who is Sutton?”
“I’m folding. Not really. I don’t know why the guild leader said that.”
“I command in the name of the son of the empty field (Gong Yaja) and the disciple of the ageless Pureum (Cheongbulno), the southern sky pond (Yeonnamcheon). Sutton, answer my question honestly. Did you instruct the kidnappers to incinerate the child?”
“Oh no… Yes, I sent someone from the office earlier.”
“Where is the lumberyard?”
“It is in Creama outside Ignas Alumni Gate. This this now… What are you talking about? Why is your mouth so selfish… This is not what I’m talking about. I’m going to make you tell lies with black magic!”
“Who is the leader of the kidnappers?”
“S… No! This is Stepner.”
Sutton made no excuses for giving up after mentioning Steffner’s name.
Elio turned to the Southern District Marshal.
“Have you heard the confessions of the criminals, Marshal? Arrest everyone and wait.”
“yes? yes!”
Baron Todd Graham, the chief of the Southern District, looked at him with a bewildered face and hurriedly replied.
They say that lies don’t work for magicians, but it’s really surprising.
‘But the magic chant is a bit unusual. Maybe it’s the barbarian’s own magic?’
At that time, Count Larva Omar, Fabian, and Knight Commander Knauf came to the Blackjack Guild office.
Elio asked the people inside.
“Does anyone know the location of Creama’s lumberyard outside the east gate?”
Then one of the security guards raised his hand.
“I am from Crimea. There is an old lumberyard in the forest there.”
“Follow me.”
Elio turned and went outside without asking his name.
The security guards and the commander of the Knights of Knauf, Count Damon Isaac, Count Fabian, Count Omar of Larva, and others hurriedly followed him.
After leaving the office, Elio glanced back.
I wanted to take Count Omar and Fabian to Larva, but I couldn’t find a way.
He thought of fortune-telling for a moment, then shook his head.
Rumors of a magic swordsman riding on clouds could have caught the attention of the Golden Temple (Ushas Undra) and hid deep in the Abyss.
In the end, Elio decided to use the new law of the fish trap again.
With one hand wrapped around the security guard’s waist, Elio soared into the night sky.
The knights ran madly in the direction he was flying.
***
Creama outside Ignas Alumni.
A closed lumberyard.
timber warehouse.
There are four men sitting around the campfire, and all of them look like shit.
The man Sutton had sent, Berrit, continued talking.
“…now the Eastern District is in an uproar. All of Ignas’ security forces are running around with lights on to catch the kidnappers. If I had been a little late, I would not have been able to come this far.”
Roybel, who had a cold impression, spoke coldly.
“So get rid of the child?”
“I don’t like it either, but it’s the guild leader’s order.”
“No fuck. Did you make the child work without knowing that he was a disciple of a great nobleman?”
“That wasn’t a disciple of a great noble from the beginning. It seems that he became a disciple of a great nobleman on the way to Ignas.”
“Aristocrats too. Are you mobilizing all of Ignas’ security forces because one of the apprentices of a high-ranking aristocrat has been kidnapped? Since when did they say that? Is this correct?”
“It seems that Count Elio Lagoa is not an ordinary nobleman. The emperor even posted a proclamation to all security forces in the empire to let them know.”
“It’s sloped, it’s sloped. fuck.”
Roybel, who was being sarcastic, got up from his seat and went outside.
Berit turned her gaze to the remaining two.
When this happens, one of the homicide addict Active and the cannibal maniac Stepner must take care of it.
“Who will do it?”
Active said with a shy face.
“No matter how much I am, children are too much for me. I will yield to Stepner.”
Then, the corner of Stephen’s mouth went up.
“Thank you, I will eat. Hey Berit!”
“yes?”
“I need to draw blood, so get some water. In the meantime, I’ll do some grooming.”
“…”
Berit was reluctant, but she couldn’t refuse the senior’s order.
As he went out with a bucket of water, Active also quietly left.
Steffner, smiling as if she was happy just thinking about it, approached Synclare Jeter and carefully removed the gag from her mouth.
“Please save me. please.”
Synclair Jeter, who was listening to the kidnappers’ conversation, begged desperately.
Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on Stephen’s face.
“I liked this time the best. It’s sad and heartbreaking, but you can’t escape your destiny… You can’t even understand that, can you?”
After he finished speaking, he hung Synclare Jeter upside down from the ceiling.
And the mouth was talking nonstop.
“Plucking and eating the sprouts of vegetables and what I do are essentially the same. Have you ever thought that sprouts of herbs and children are the same?”
Sinclair Jeter, completely exhausted and limp, couldn’t even ask for help.
***
Ignas alumni.
Crocs, a security guard in the Southern District, couldn’t believe the current reality.
It was because he had broken through the long distance from the Blackjack Guild office to the alumni in the blink of an eye.
‘Is fly magic this fast?’
At this speed, not alone, with a young man on his side!
Elio said to him who glanced at him with a surprised face.
“Is this direction right?”
“Yes yes. you’re right. The village below the mountain in the distance is Creama.”
Turning his head to the front again, Elio suddenly took in a big breath, exhaled it, and shouted with all his might.
“Steffner! If you touch Synclare, I will tear you all alive!”
Kururureung-.
After Elio’s death, Ignas’s building shuddered.
The people who had been sleeping deeply woke up in surprise and turned on the lights one by one.
***
A closed lumberyard in Crimea.
Steffner, who was about to plunge a knife into Synclair Jeter’s chest, hesitated.
For a strange sound came from across the sky, like a clap of thunder.
Then three people outside ran inside.
Roybel shouted at Steffner, who was standing with a dagger.
“stop! We have to run away right now!”
Even Steffner, blinded by her perverted appetite, was shaken by those words.
“Did you guys hear that sound just now?”
“They called your name. I think the guild leader sold us out. Let’s fly to another principality for now. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll go to the southern kingdom at least.”
Stephner looked at Synclare Jeter with a sad face.
I should have taken one more step, but not being able to do so made me feel so unfair and resentful.
“Fuck! Fuck!”
“What! Let’s go!”
It’s time for Steffner, who retrieved the dagger, to turn around.
‘It rattles!’ The door of the old warehouse opened wide with a sound.
Soon, two men entered.
Elio and Crocs.
Crocs shouted triumphantly at the criminals in the warehouse.
“Everyone kneel down there! This is Count Elio Lagoa!”
Berit dropped to his knees, but Active and Roybel did not.
The two of them flew out the back door like lightning.
In an instant, Elio stretched out his hand, and the bodies of the two floated up.
Steffner didn’t miss the chance and moved close to Synclare Jeter.
Then, he pulled out his dagger and thrust it into Synclare Jeter’s nape.
“Don’t move! If you move, I will kill this child.”
Elio asked, glaring at Stephner with a grim face.
“What is your name?”
“Steffner. If you want to save this child, let me go!”
Elio grabbed the air.
Then, with the sound of bones breaking, Active and Roybel’s bodies curled into balls.
Blood dripped down the two of them who had instantly turned into chunks of meat.
Seeing the horrors of his comrades, Steffner couldn’t breathe.
Soon, two lumps fell to the floor.
“Steffner, do you still think you have a chance?”
After thinking for a moment, Steffner shouted with a poisonous face.
“If you’re going to die anyway, I’ll die with you!”
He plunged the dagger into the hostage’s neck with all his might, without anyone stopping him.
No, I was going to do that, but for some reason my body didn’t listen.
I couldn’t move a finger as if I was caught in an invisible spider’s web.
Elio, who subdued Stepner with the void trick, freed Synchrare Jeter’s body.
Elio, who was examining the young pupil, let out a light sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he was exhausted but appeared to be uninjured.
As his expression softened, Steffner begged with a pitiful face.
“Please help the Count. It was all done by the guild leader. I will do anything the Count tells me to do. I’m a mana user, so I’m sure there’s a place to use it.”
