Chapter 102: Who's my enemy? (3)

***

“Bring the best guy in the back alley in front of me.”

After eating, Ruel said after inhaling Breath.

“Why…?”

Instead of answering, Cassion stared at Breath, and Ruel asked back.

“No, I’ll bring him in.”

“Cassion.”

“Yes.”

“I don’t know what you’ve heard from Fran, but now just focus on what’s in front of you.”

He forgot that his owner was quick-witted.

Cassion chuckled for a moment and soon bowed his head.

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Before you go, let me ask you one thing. Have you checked who hired the guys who attacked me in the capital after the banquet?”

“We found traces of money being taken from several merchants on the same day. After researching this, it led to the Lumina family.”

“It’s Adoris.”

Crunch.

Ruel chewed the pie and snorted.

Corrence was under oath.

No retaliation could be made against himself.

I guess he did it because he didn’t know it.

It was common for the merchant to withdraw money from the bank, and Adoris was very neat in handling the after-sales as he just gave them the money they withdrew in the name of investing in the merchant.

“It is either Adoris’ butler or servant who has ordered the request to the commission office, as I expected. Tell His Highness Banios.”

“Alright. And I have one more thing to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“At the time of the raid, the Prostone Guild, which employed adventurers, was a guild administered by the Shio family.”

Crunch.

‘A guild managed by the Shio family?’

Ruel touched one of the spirits that were huddled on his stomach.

Kuroo Kuru.

I kept rolling my head as I looked at that angry look.

‘It’s not that the Lumina family doesn’t have an adventurer’s guild, so why is it an adventurer’s guild affiliated with the Shio family?’

Ruel was annoyed by the triviality.

It was clearly the Lumina Adventurer’ guild that supported Adoris himself that made it easy to hide his identity after the attack and find it easy to question the incident itself.

There was no way Adoris didn’t know that fact.

Separately, the connection between the Shio family and Huan became increasingly clear.

“Investigate the Prostone Guild again. Everything from the past.”

“A few men may die if we investigate the past. Are you alright?”

“If it helps me to get information. It’s not that you can’t clean up.”

Cassion’s brow frowned slightly, but he was a loyal butler.

“Oh, bring Aris on the way. You can’t be loud.”

“Alright. Let me call Aris first.”

Cassion bent down and went out.

After a while, Aris arrived and Cassion disappeared into the shadows to pick up the leader of the back alley.

“Are you feeling well, Ruel-nim?”

Aris stroked Leo, who was spinning around him, and asked.

“It’s alright, how’s your research going?”

“…Did you know that?”

Aris sat down a little embarrassed.

How could he not notice when Tyson openly brags about Aris?

“I heard you’re studying the essence of magic?”

“Yes, magic is borrowed from nature, but after all it is an artificial force. I was wondering why more than one attribute could not be mixed at once.”

—This body can do it! Come out when I say yar!

It was a very unwieldy remark.

Ruel looked at Leo and opened his mouth.

“It seems like a question that was dealt with a lot by magicians.”

“That’s right. I’m not bragging, but I’ve heard from Mr. Tyson that few people can handle the four attributes like me. So instead of taking out properties separately like now, creating new properties and saving them in advance, from the beginning…”

“I’m proud of you.”

Ruel snorted.

“N- no. Isn’t Ruel-nim a rare attribute that’s not even in the data! A shadow is a being that is not limited by its form and completely changes the laws of magic!”

Aris showed a pure enthusiasm for learning and looked like he wanted to open his notebook right away.

I don’t know the details, but the current magic was originally unavailable except for its natural attributes.

So, when you want to use other attributes, you have a very troublesome way of making it like a natural phenomenon by colliding various attributes, blowing in mana, tying it up into a spell, and storing it.

Aris finds a way to occur simultaneously like a natural attribute.

“Leo must have the hint.”

“That’s right. So…”

When Cassion reappeared, Aris rose from his seat, saving his words.

He brought a stranger.

At first glance, he was terrified.

“Keep the sound from leaking.”

“Alright.”

At Ruel’s command, Aris approached the door and cast a spell.

“Nice to meet you.”

Ruel smiled at the number one in the back alley.

Before he knew it, he was patting Leo, who had jumped onto his lap.

“What’s your name?”

Even though his hands and feet were not tied, the man did not resist, but just shook flat on his stomach.

When Ruel looked at Cassion, he shrugged his shoulders.

“I just killed a few of his men in front of him. It’s just this much of a bowl.”

T/N : This phrase is often used to express dissatisfaction with something that falls short of expectations or is not up to the desired standard.

Ruel kicked his tongue openly.

Even Plane, who was a rat, was not this servile.

Cassion touched the man with his foot.

“My master asked me what your name was.”

Hearing that he was the owner, the man gasped and opened his mouth.

“My name is Ga, please give me an order! I will follow anything!”

Even though Billo had taken care of him before, he was begging for his life to be spared, throwing away all his pride and name.

This servility was a man who would betray his master at any time.

At least a minimum of backbone was needed.

“Have you seen the next second in command?”

“Yes, I saw it.”

“How was it?”

“He was a man of loyalty, not like a rat. When I brought this guy, I brought him with me just in case.”

Ruel finally let go of his stiff expression.

I was fortunate that he was a more proper person than that guy.

“Get rid of him, bring that guy.”

“Alright.”

“S, save me…”

The man couldn’t say any more because he was stabbed in the back.

He was quietly sucked into the shadows with Cassion.

“Why?”

Ruel asked Leo’s gaze, looking at him uneasily.

—Ruel… threw it away.

Leo shuddered as if he was in a great shock.

Ruel stroked Leo with an absurd expression.

“I didn’t even pick it up in the first place.”

—Will you throw this body away if you don’t need it?

Soon Ruel kicked his tongue and pressed Leo’s head slightly.

The fact that he had been abandoned in the past and that he was left alone in the Forest of Beasts did not disappear and seemed to remain.

“I won’t throw it away. Ever.”

—Other than this body?

“Yes.”

Only then did Leo smile and show his stomach as if he was relieved.

—Give this body a pat.

Ruel couldn’t help but smile and pat his stomach.

Looking at his expression, Leo looked like a well-satisfied master.

“Aris.”

Ruel called Aris, who was looking pleased.

“Yes.”

“There may be blood flowing to the Setiria like the last rat.”

By combining the data handed over by Ketlan, the information brought by Dion, and the information from the second person in the back alley, a weapon that can cut down the red ash hidden in Setiria is completed.

Now that he couldn’t move, that was the first thing he had to do.

“Maybe you should go there.”

“It’s alright if it’s for you, Ruel-nim, and Setiria.”

“Cough, yes.”

“Ruel-nim, are you okay?”

“What?”

“No, sir.”

Aris just smiled.

Ruel took a glance at him and inhaled Breath.

“You’re not going to go out for a while. Since you are probably exhausted, go out, eat something delicious, and have fun. Take a rest like that for a while.”

“Yes, I am resting properly.”

Only then did Aris smile properly.

As Leo’s ears fluttered, Ruel smirked.

“If you have to go to the village, take Leo with you.”

—This body better go with Ruel.

“It’s because I can’t go out for a while.”

Leo looked aside as he was about to speak.

Cassion appeared with the captured man.

“I brought him.”

Ruel raised the corners of his mouth.

His eyes were different from the man just moments ago.

His face was swollen from being squeezed, but he was so angry that he wanted to tear his enemy to pieces.

“Nice to meet you.”

“Eup-eup!”

There was a gag in his mouth.

Cassion hesitated and spoke as Ruel looked at him telling him to take it off immediately.

“He had a bad mouth, so he gagged for a while.”

“It’s alright.”

Cassion hesitated once more and pulled out the gag.

“This fucke…”

Cassion did not allow a retort.

He pressed him quietly with his eyes.

“Ugh..”

The man groaned in agony.

He was suffocated, his head, his knees found the ground by themselves.

His instinct to live quickly opened his mouth.

“Save me…”

“That’s enough.”

At Ruel’s words, the pressure that dominated the body quickly disappeared.

The man breathed heavily.

“What’s your name?”

The man’s eyes moved hastily.

He froze, as if he couldn’t believe that the owner of this strongest person was that boy.

“Name.”

Ruel asked again.

Only then did he open his mouth.

“Gors…It is.”

He reluctantly respected Ruel.

“You are now number one in the back alley. What you will do next is simple.”

“Wait a minute. Shen, what happened to Shen?”

“Rather than that, why don’t you start by asking who I am? No matter how you look at it, I think that comes first.”

Gors looked around at Ruel’s arrogant smile.

It was full of things that ordinary people could never enjoy.

“N, noble one.”

“You’re wrong.”

Gors’ eyes shook.

What would you say if you weren’t an aristocrat?

Gulp.

He swallowed his saliva belatedly.

He was a fool himself.

He felt so pathetic for not even noticing the boy in front of him.

“I, I, I see the Lord!”

“It’s not dull.”

“Why us…”

“Even you, who wander through the back alleys of Setiria, are one permanent resident of my territory for now.”

Gors could not hide his surprise.

What do you mean permanent resident?

I didn’t know that such a word would come from the mouth of the owner.

He thought they would see them as pests devouring the territory.

“I’ll acknowledge the existence of a back alley. Exactly, as far as I’m allowed.”

“R-really?”

He couldn’t believe it.

The head of the family really intended to receive them as permanent residents.

Whether they were kicked out of the territory or fled after committing a crime, isn’t it the place where those with red lines gathered and started.

He was one of them after all, but he was one of those who wished he could start a new life again.

“First of all, aside from that, have you heard of Red Ash?”

“I’ve heard of it.”

Gorse quickly became a gentle sheep and answered hurriedly to the point of urgency.

“He was making nonsense about giving Setiria to Shen.”

“Is it absurd?”

“I’m a man who knows the subject. What I want is not a Setiria that I can’t even get my hands on, but for me and my men to live like humans again.”

“Living in the back alley?”

At Ruel’s sneer, Gors clenched his knees.

“Whether it’s voluntarily or were forced to live in the back alleys, it is true. But I swear to you, Shen and I were trying to calm down the chaos in the back alley, and all the ugly things that had been going on…”

Cough, cough. Do you know how to write?”

“I do not know. Shen was the one who knew how to read and write.”

“That’s too bad. I have to see it for myself. Cassion, tell him briefly.”

Ruel inhaled Breath while Cassion told Shen of his sins.

When Ruel peeked at Aris, there were spirits attached to his body.

In case I laughed, I turned my head and pretended not to see it.

“That’s a lie!”

Gors’ face turned white.

“Shen can’t do that! I’m with Shen…”

“Why would I?”

Ruel laughed.

“I’m the lord.”

Gors shut up when he was told it wasn’t even worth lying to himself.
