Genius Warlock-Episode 51
Abandoned building in District W.
A loud noise echoed there..
"enemy-! Off... Ugh!”
The reason for the commotion was none other than intruders, who came in while Cant, their head, was away..
There were many of them, all armed with clubs, some of them old and rusty, but some with shotguns..
Thanks to this, the beggars of the leaderless Cant group were unable to resist and were beaten unilaterally..
“under… ! Jerk the! Cant lose, cant lose. I've been putting so much strain on my neck that I can't even use it..”
An intruder with a shotgun said while waving the gun..
At first glance, it was a piece of trash that a bullet wouldn't even fire on, but to the beggars who lived on the bottom of the streets, its mere presence was a threat..
Currently, all those working hard in the cant group have been beaten to death, and the only ones left unharmed are helpless children, women, and the elderly..
They were just cornered and hugging each other like sheep surrounded by wolves..
"haha… . cute. don't worry. I won't hit you. The mole will come in handy..”
“So follow me when I say nice things, I don't want to see spicy food.”
At the same time, the intruders grabbed the women and children by their hair and dragged them somewhere..
A few brave old men tried to stop the intruders, but they only responded with clubs..
"Fuck… ! Where can I get my hands on the topic of corpses being searched through? Useless old people... . Tsk!”
Old man hit in the face with phlegm.
His aged body could not withstand even a single attack, as he could not move..
Still, he stumbled and got caught up in the intruders..
It wasn't because there was some way..
A kind of struggle just because it has to be done..
The old man said, bleeding and panting..
"ha… . ha… . Don't you know who the head is here? If I go back now - oh oh oh oh!”
The intruder kicked the old man..
The old man was clutching his chest and twisting his body as if he had been hit correctly, which was even more unfortunate due to his thin body..
However, the intruders seemed to have forgotten even the slightest bit of sympathy, looking at the old man and laughing at him, and not only that, they stomped on his neck..
"Fuck you old man… .. Do we look like assholes? I know who your head is. Well, I didn't come. Should I tell you something more interesting??”
"hey….”
“What do you think? Fuck… . The fight is already over. Listen up you useless old man. Your captain is probably already finished with our comrades, and from now on you are all ours. Our possessions… .! Do you understand?! Because I told you specifically before I broke your head. Please know that I am grateful.”
With those words, the intruder who stepped on the old man raised the wooden club he was holding and aimed it at the old man's head..
The other colleagues just shook their heads and did not do anything to stop him..
"Everyone, take a good look! From now on, our mole gang will rule Area W. This is what happens to everyone who rebels against us! one… . two… . three-"
—Tung!
An intruder holding a club high in the sky.
On his own cue, one of his heads suddenly flew off..
The damage was worse than being shot, and not only Cantpae but also the intruders were surprised by the sudden situation..
"What, what??!”
"attack?”
As if to prove that they were just beggars and not properly trained, they were unable to respond to the sudden situation and were confused..
At that time, the minions sent by Oliver approached secretly and blew off the heads of the beggars armed with shotguns..
They all froze in fear and terror, as if they had met a ghost..
[Creepy Scream ]
A terrible face suddenly appears with black smoke.
Everyone's attention was focused, and at that moment, the face made of black smoke distorted and screamed..
Kiyaayayaiyayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
The scream that tore the air broke the listener's will to fight..
The intruders, who had been in good spirits up until now, were literally dumbfounded by the incomprehensible situation that struck them one after another..
Well, I just picked up a weapon in the first place. They were not people who made violence their business..
They completely lost the will to fight.
After the situation was completely resolved, two people appeared..
Oliver holding a test tube in one hand and Cant holding a quarter staff..
cant said.
"...... Everyone throw away your weapons and kneel down."
***
A pile of clubs and some shotguns on one side of the beggar's den..
The intruders, who had been so energetic just a moment ago, were all scared and trapped..
They were trembling and looking down at the ground. Sometimes, when they had difficulty raising their gaze, they saw minions floating around and lowered their eyes again..
What looked like a small meat dumpling lightly blew off someone's head, and it felt like a gun was pointed at their head..
In their hearts, their fighting spirit was all broken and there was only fear..
Thanks to this, Cant and Oliver were able to keep an eye on their fellow beggars with ease..
“Luckily I wasn't seriously hurt..”
The beggar with glasses looked at his fellow beggars who had been beaten and said,.
Although he was not a doctor with specialized knowledge, having been in the beggar's gang for a long time, he knew how to roughly check whether a person's bones were broken or internal organs were damaged..
Cant nodded without much doubt..
"Good thing.”
“Not necessarily. I can't fight for a while. need to calm down.”
"That's enough. As long as no one is seriously injured.”
His colleagues, who had been frightened by Cant's words, calmed down..
Then the glasses beggar cautiously opened his mouth..
"however.… . What on earth happened? evening.… I mean people.”
The glasses beggar had Oliver at his fingertips..
Cant looked at Oliver in silence, was silent for a moment, and then opened his mouth..
“..…. As we all saw, he is a warlock..”
"warlock…?”
"okay… . Warlock. First of all, he said that he was a warlock and showed proof. It's probably a warlock.”
Everyone understood, but still the shock did not go away..
At the bottom of their lives, beings like wizards and warlocks were just rumors from another world..
"that… . Mr. Cant. Why on earth did you bring a warlock??”
"I didn't know either.”
"Why did the warlock stay here??”
“well… . I have to ask from now on.”
A woman hugged her child and said.
"Are you trying to kidnap our children??”
"well… . If he was that kind of guy he would have helped us?”
"Still, you don't know.?”
Women who had children with him murmured and hugged their children tightly..
Anxiety rekindled.
Everyone looked at Oliver with anxious eyes..
then someone said.
“uh… . Where is that guy??”
Everyone saw Harmonica approaching Oliver alone..
The child bowed his head and thanked Oliver.,
Oliver looked at her in silence, then raised his hand and nodded..
A truly awkward sight.
But strangely enough, when people saw that, their anxiety gradually subsided..
Cant miss the opportunity and said.
"I know everyone is anxious right now. Leave this matter to me for now. It's true that Oliver is a warlock, but it's also true that he helped us. Even those kids helped me.”
Cant said, pointing to the twenty or so beggar children he had brought along with the harmonica..
The children, who were small and messy like mice, were anxious and gathered together..
"......."
"I know you all have a lot to say, but first we need his help. That too absolutely.”
“Help?”
"okay. Now that the mole is directly threatening us, can we stay quiet? If I can, I should lend a helping hand to anyone... . Is there any difference of opinion??"
no one could say anything.
Just a moment ago, I almost got kidnapped by a gang of moles..
In the end, everyone was pushed by the situation and atmosphere and left everything to Cant, who nodded and approached Oliver..
"Can we talk for a moment??”
"Ah, yes… . I was waiting.”
Oliver reacted immediately to Cant's words..
Cant took Oliver with him, and although he appeared calm on the outside, he was nervous on the inside. She was, but she wasn't excessive..
I did not harbor vague fear or hostility without cause like others..
"Are you okay??”
Cant carefully took out a cigarette from his arms..
It seemed like he smoked it very sparingly, judging from the way he hid it..
“Phew... . under-! little. I hope you understand. Because I smoked a cigarette. Would you like to smoke one??”
Oliver shook his head as if it was okay..
Cant said, smoking again. White smoke came out of her mouth.
"First of all, let me say thank you again. For helping me out in the basement... . Again, for helping me like this again. Thank you, sincerely.”
"Well, I also received help, and it wasn't just help... . it's okay.”
"know. know… . To answer your question. Thank you though.”
cant be serious.
He felt great fear and guilt because he could have lost his colleagues if he had made a mistake..
When I saved it, I felt corresponding relief and joy..….
“okay.… . What do you want to ask??”
“…Why did you throw the weapon away in the sewer? Even if I threw it away, it wouldn't have helped much..”
“Is that what you're curious about??”
"Besides that... .. Why did you help me when we first met, and why do you continue to protect the people here? From what I heard, Cant said you could take the easier route.."
Cant slightly close his eyes and then open them..
“…Ask the opposite. You seem to be a highly skilled warlock, but why did you end up in a den of beggars? It's been a while since I retired, but I'm sure a warlock of your level would have a much more comfortable way of living..”
"hmm.… There's something I want to find out..”
"is it? Then I would answer that I did it because I wanted to..”
"yes?”
"I just wanted to do that..….”
“Sorry, I don't understand..”
"But there are people in this world who do things we don't understand. There are people who take in people who have given up on life just because they ran into them for no reason, and feed, clothe, nurse, and comfort them. Just because he saw it, that's God's will.”
"...... Are you talking about your predecessor, a priest??”
"To be exact, it's a story between him and me. He took me in and took care of me. don't want anything from me.”
Hasn't Cant followed suit now? according to will.”
"No, it's not a will. I asked them to help me, but they told me to leave whenever I wanted to. The reason I stay and do this is just because I wanted to. A life where I was going to die anyway. There was nothing to do at the time.....”
Cant laughed softly, and Oliver nodded silently..
To be honest, it wasn't something I could understand. It didn't seem like a very bad answer..
"Honestly, it’s not a very convincing answer, but thank you for your answer… . Then the reason you helped me was because of what happened with the priest??”
"Some extent… . But there's actually one more thing.”
“what is that?”
".... It may sound strange in this context, but you look like Dave..”
"who is that?”
"my son died because of me.”
".........."
Cant said while looking at Oliver's eyes..
It doesn't matter if you think it's a lie. I just did it because I wanted to talk about it now. It flows in.”
"Yes, I understand..….”
An awkward silence gradually settled in, but Cant noticed and asked again..
“..... I'm sorry, but can you help us??”
“What.....yeah.”
“Thank goodness… .. Well then, I guess we should interrogate those guys first. Could you please stand behind me? I think just standing will help.."
Cant pointed at the tied up intruder..
".... What are you going to report??”
"well? I have to ask first about the mole's lair..”
"I'm saying I don't know, so why don't you be on guard??”
"Probably, but you can't help but ask.?”
"What if you know the location of the lair and have a way to lower your alertness??”
"..... Then it's best. Why is there a good way??”
Oliver answered, creating dark magic in his hands..
"yes."
