Genius Warlock-Episode 231
An approach that no one noticed. As a result, the leader of the robbers died in vain..
The ten robbers who were guarding the leader's side were truly saddened and angry at the leader's death, probably because of their strong loyalty, and bared their teeth at Willes..
Despite the unfavorable situation.
Willes lightly picked up the panicked female hostage and threw her behind him, then raised a dagger about 20 centimeters long and prepared to fight..
Burbubbuk 一!!!
"......!!!"
At the moment when everyone's attention was focused on Wallace, Oliver injected a significant amount of magical energy into the tonfa and threw it away..
Surprisingly, despite using a little trick to compress the magic power, the tonfa was able to pierce three and two people, respectively..
Similar to a cannonball... .. The five robbers hit by the tonfa were reduced to mangled pieces of meat, and the few remaining enemy troops were cut in half..
"This son of a bitch!!”
Instead of being scared, one of the brave robbers rushed at Oliver to avenge the death of his comrades..
Oliver tried to counterattack by pulling him with the magic thread attached to the tonfa, but a robber armed with a long sword cut the magic thread connected to the tonfa and cut it off..
Although the horse actually had the strength of a chain, he seemed to be a magic user with considerable skill..
Thanks to this, Oliver, who was empty-handed, raised his index and middle fingers like gun barrels and naturally aimed them at the approaching robber, compressing his magical power and firing..
Wow-!
When the compressed magic power was fired, a sound like a gunshot rang out, the robber's head flew off, and this time, the remaining people bared their teeth at Oliver..
But it was a bad move.
You turned your back on Willes who attacked Landa Prison..
As soon as the robbers found an opening, he killed them with a dagger..
The remnants of the robbers fell so fast they couldn't even scream..
The passengers who were running away from the train stopped at the sight and looked at Oliver and Willis with distraught expressions..
It's like I can't believe it.
As the robbers were subdued in an instant, the heightened atmosphere of fear and bewilderment was relieved, and a fresh breath of cool air mixed with desperation blew in..
While everyone was standing there in a daze, not knowing how to react to this situation, Oliver hurriedly walked up to Willes and greeted him..
"Thank you for your help. teacher.”
The reason for saying hello was nothing special. There were some things I was really thankful for, and some things I was glad to see again..
Seeing him wearing a leather mask and hiding himself among the passengers, it seemed like he was in a situation where he had to hide his identity, so Oliver didn't pretend to know and just said hello..
He glanced at Oliver and then saw the woman held hostage behind his back. She was shivering and held in the arms of her family..
Then he asked Oliver.
“..…There's a hostage, what were you thinking about throwing the tonfa??”
***
Oliver couldn't answer and looked at Willes. He was angry. That too a lot..
"I asked what he was thinking of throwing the tonpa..”
Oliver saw Wallace's emotional state and the hand holding the dagger..
Although I was angry, I had no intention of attacking Oliver. However, it was just that he exercised self-control out of necessity, and he was full of feelings that made him want to harm Oliver if he could..
'What mission are you on??’
"Hey, I'm asking three times. What were you thinking, throwing a tonfa while there were hostages??”
"ah.… sorry. I was thinking about something else for a moment. To be precise, I was trying to hit the person holding the hostage..”
"Then, if the hostage is hit?”
“hmm..… . Well then, I'm sorry and it's unfortunate.?”
At that moment, Wallace's emotions, which he had been controlling with patience, fluctuated and his clear murderous intent toward Oliver shone through..
The control of reason was about to be broken in the nick of time..
As Oliver retreated to defend himself, someone intervened in fear..
"Stand, teacher..…?”
A terrified voice. Oliver and Wallace turned their heads. There was a middle-aged man there..
A middle-aged man you see everywhere..
Where did you see it... ah.
Earlier, I was almost attacked by a double-edged robber, and Oliver was the one who helped me without realizing it..
"Ah, someone sitting in the same audience seat..”
"yes! ....yes! a little while ago… .. Thank you for your help. You are the benefactor of our family..”
He pointed to his family in the distance. There was a middle-aged woman, a boy, and a girl..
Oliver looked at him again..
Still frightened, he wiped his cold sweat and greeted Oliver..
He felt uncomfortable when Oliver looked at him, but his emotional state was so interesting that Oliver couldn't help but stare at him..
He was scared and uncomfortable with Oliver. Nevertheless, he still harbored feelings of gratitude towards Oliver..
The two emotions with different temperaments tried to eat each other, and the middle-aged man in front of me suppressed his fear and approached Oliver to express his gratitude..
Even though I want to get away from Oliver right now..
".....If you don't mind, may I ask your name??”
Oliver politely placed his hand on one of his chest, bowed slightly and asked the middle-aged man..
It was a posture I learned from the employees at Angel's House, and the posture felt very natural. Anyone who meets him for the first time would think he is a nobleman..
“ah.… . Cliff. My name is Cliff Lee..”
“Thank you for your answer. Mr. Cliff. Thank you for greeting me..”
Oliver's kind answer made him seem gentle for a moment. Even though my sleeves and trousers were stained with blood..
Cliff calmed his nerves further, said a final thank you, and returned to his family..
Oliver looked at him for a moment and then turned his head back to Wallace..
I wanted to clear up the misunderstanding with him, but somehow he just left..
Trying to soothe her bad feelings about Oliver,.
Oliver caught him without realizing it. I didn't know why. Is it because I'm curious why he got angry earlier? These days, Oliver didn't know much about his own feelings. Or maybe it's just now that I'm paying attention to that fact..
Anyway...….
"Hey teacher.....”
“why are you holding on to me?”
Willes stopped and asked.
"I think we should stop talking about what we were talking about.?”
"What did you talk about?.”
"What is the story... . What did we talk about??”
As Willes ignored Oliver and was about to go back on his way, he saw the sound of a heavy car coming from afar and about fifty people approaching..
Some of the passengers who had run away from the train due to the unusual sound ran back into the train..
As Willes adjusted his dagger and took a fighting stance, Oliver raised his hand to stop him..
"You don't have to do that because you're not an enemy..”
"It's not the enemy?”
“yes.”
That was soon proven. About fifty people appeared as they approached..
It was a royal army stationed near the train..
'..Ah, they are more dangerous to Mr. Willes.?’
Oliver thought later..
***
"Oh my god... my head cracked like an egg.."
"Oh, shut up. I ate egg dish today..”
Kingdom soldiers dispatched after seeing the rescue flare and took the body out of the train..
The bodies were all in terrible condition..
Following the previous soldier's words, the head was cracked open like an egg and the contents came out, and there was also a hole in the chest and a torn stomach..
Oliver checked his makeshift weapon after seeing the condition of the robbers he had belatedly killed..
"hmm..… . Now that I think about it, the end is too sharp. too much.”
Oliver had a similar feeling as when he first swung the sword..
The situation was urgent so I couldn't pay attention, but the tonfa's killing power was better than necessary. Especially compared to quarter staff..
Burial doll - I didn't know about it when Duncan used it, but when I used it myself, I saw the problem..
‘Would it be better if I made it more blunt??’
"Has confirmed. teacher.”
Captain Evan, who came with about 50 soldiers, checked Oliver's Magic Tower employee ID card and identity certificate and returned them..
With fierce eyes, he didn't pretend to look at the employee ID card and ID card that Oliver handed him, but really looked at them..
"The robbers are dead. Will I be punished??”
Oliver suddenly remembered that this was not Landa and that he was also Zenon Bright, an employee of the Magic Tower, not Dave Wright, the solver..
"Do not worry. Those dead guys over there are dirty Norse robbers. Rather than being punished, you should be rewarded..”
Contrary to his dripping contempt and disgust for Northmen, he spoke quite kindly to Oliver..
Treatment that Oliver has never experienced well. I soon found out why.
"When I looked at the ID certificate, it said that my employer was Kevin Dunbar. Is that Kevin Dunbar, a member of the Elemental School of the Tower of Magic??”
“yes… . Do you know the professor??”
"Sure. He fought on the same battlefield with Him two or three times and was helped by Him. It's nice to meet you here..”
His feelings were genuine. He had a crush and respect for Kevin..
"I'm so glad you know the professor..”
"How are you doing, Colonel??”
lieutenant colonel. Probably, that was Kevin's rank during his military service..
“I don't know if I'm doing well, but I'm staying strong..”
"If so, you're lucky..”
We were able to get a glimpse into how Kevin lived and a fragment of his life through Captain Evan's feelings of respect..
"Captain. This person's identity has been confirmed. I think it's a train passenger. However, I think it would be a good idea to take him for a while to find out more..”
The kingdom troops brought by Captain Evan surrounded Willes, who was wearing a leather mask, and asked:.
He killed fewer people than Oliver, but listening to what the soldiers were saying, it seemed like the problem was that he was from North Korea. hmm…
“…Captain Evan.”
"yes sir.”
"That person is the fixer I hired to do the magic tower mission, how can I not go with him??”
When the captain heard those words, he raised his hand and stopped the men who were dragging Willes away..
“A problem solver?”
"Yes, I can't go into details, but I heard that this place was a bit rough, so I hired them as security..”
“..…For that matter, I think the teacher is quite strong.?”
"The other person was just lucky.”
"The Tashi Robbers are the most troublesome robbers in recent times, aren't they? The boss had 30 million randa on his neck last week... . It's a problem solver.?”
"yes."
“….Release me.”
The captain granted Oliver's request. One of his subordinates spoke with concern in his voice, but Evan remained unmoved..
"If there is a protest from the Magic Tower, will you take responsibility??”
That was the end of the story. After freeing Willeth, Captain Evan gave Oliver some advice. He said, for example, that upon arriving at his destination he would go to the inn where he was told to wash and change his bloody clothes..
"The teacher's current appearance is to protect the citizens, but if someone who does not know the situation sees it, they may be shocked..”
"Oh, definitely... . Thanks for the advice.”
Oliver answered and boarded the train with Willes. Captain Evan asked the final question..
"Oh… .. What should I do with that friend’s ransom??"
Evan pointed to the leader of the Tash robbers, whose face had been pierced to death..
"It won't take long, but you'll have to come with us and fill out some paperwork to get your money right away..”
"hmm..… . What happens if I just go?”
"It may take some time, but we will take action so that you can receive the bounty through the Magic Tower..”
"Well then, can you please do me a favor with that??”
“of course.”
“thank you You are kind..”
"Gratitude is mine. Thanks to you, the damage was minimized. thank you”
So Oliver and Captain Evan parted ways. We may not have seen each other again after a short meeting, but it was a very enjoyable meeting..
"hey.”
As the afterglow faded away, Willes, who was standing next to Oliver, spoke to him..
“yes?”
“……thank you for your help.”
"Thank you too. For saving the hostage for me. It's fate that we met like this, would you like to join us??”
