633. defection (2)

The name of the man who asked Oliver to save his life is Walter. He was said to be a black magician who came from the center of the continent..

“The center of the continent?”

“Yes that's right.”

The man answered while kneeling down..

The prostration and the answering voice were very natural. Like a slave to a master or a subject to a king.

I didn't like it.

“There are a lot of things I want to ask, but first, would you please stand up? Because I don't like people kneeling in front of me..”

“sorry. This was the rule of etiquette where I lived, so I was rude..”

The man calmly apologized and stood up..

He looked really calm, but when I looked at him, he wasn't really..

He may look calm on the outside, but on the inside, he was extremely tense and anxious, like when his secret was discovered..

Nevertheless, the reason I was so calm was because of a greater fear. I wonder if Oliver might be offended by the way he trembles or stutters..

Based on survival instinct, fear trumped fear..

Oliver was no expert in these matters, but one thing. I could tell that it was not a skill that could be learned in a day or two. What is learned in an environment similar to everyday life.

‘Maybe it's possible in the center of the continent?······.’

Oliver thought of the center of the continent. Although he had no personal connection with the place, he had heard about it through his ears..

Inland areas not blessed with industrialization.

A land of chaos torn into numerous small countries..

Because of this, public power is weak, and many wizards have left, making it an area where black magicians are relatively strong..

Considering that warlocks were originally concentrated in large cities, it could be said to have a quite abnormal structure, so I was curious..

How did a warlock from the center of the continent come across the sea to find Oliver? Even with fear.

Oliver opened his mouth to answer that question..

“Mr. Walter. Could you please hold your head up and take off your hood??”

Walter obediently complied with Oliver's request this time..

Thanks to this, Oliver was able to see the face of a man named Walter. He was quite young compared to his attitude and way of speaking..

Around mid to late twenties?

After checking his face, Oliver politely introduced himself..

“Thank you for your favor. My name is Dave, the troubleshooter on Street 30, Area T, Landa..”

“My name is Walter Mayer. I am a warlock belonging to the Mayer family..”

“Your last name and family name are the same..”

“Our family is made up of blood relatives..”

“ah······.”

Oliver exclaimed. He had seen quite a few of their kind while dealing with the central warlocks of the continent who had come to Gallos to help the paladins..

Family made up of blood relatives and villages.

It was easy to remember because it was a rare form in Landa and Gallos..

“On behalf of our family, it is an absolute honor to meet our new finger..”

“I'm not a finger, but first of all, I'm not a member of the Black Hand..”

“ah······. sorry.”

“no. I didn't say this to apologize. However, I would like to know why it is called a finger..”

I already had some idea, but there was something that stuck, so I asked. It was exactly as expected.

“I heard that you fought on equal footing with the puppet and helped defeat the eternal child Pan and his sea monster... More than anything-”

Here is the main point.

“-He is the one who survived the fight with the Pied Piper, so that’s right. At least that's how it works on our side..”

I knew it.

Oliver had been refraining from outside activities as he was recuperating, but after defeating the Pied Piper and becoming a hero of Landa, he was feeling the aftermath to some extent..

Just as the energy of the shadow was suppressed, the presence of Oliver himself had to be erased as well. When people recognize Oliver, they whisper in a way that cannot be compared to the past..

It means that making the Pied Piper step down was worth it. At that time, Oliver recognized a subtle sense of difference..

“Did you say you survived??”

It was announced that Dave the Fixer had kicked out the Pied Piper. At least officially. When this fact was explained, Walter responded:.

“I'm sorry to say this, but no one believes that the Pied Piper was kicked out. At least in the middle of the continent.”

“oh······. what is the reason?”

“The Pied Piper Man. Because I can't imagine anyone who could stop him..”

Oliver nodded without realizing it. Because the Pied Piper was such a powerful being. Different from other fingers.

However, what was scarier than that was the will of the Pied Piper. A vast, endless anger like the sea.

Oliver was more afraid of the Pied Piper's anger than his power..

“Please do not be offended. The place where we live overlaps with the Pied Piper's territory, so unlike here, we feel his fear firsthand..”

Oliver wanted to ask what happened, but he just swallowed the question..

It's true that I was curious, but I wasn't as curious as I was in the past. Also, there was a deal with the Pied Piper..

‘Instead of backing down, I decided not to get involved in his work..’

Because of the overwhelming power gap, the situation, and because Oliver himself wanted it, he accepted it. But then I thought about it and got curious..

Why did the Pied Piper offer such favorable terms to Oliver?.

Even though I wasn't motivated, I seemed to be the type of person who values ​​promises, so what should I do?.

However, Oliver soon stopped thinking. When I thought about it, it was an unknown problem, and I didn't even want to know that much..

I just wanted to distance myself from the Pied Piper. In reality or in my head.

Oliver, who decided to focus on what was in front of him, guessed one thing through his conversation with Walter..

“At least you didn't come to me because of the Pied Piper problem..”

“That's right.”

“So, why did you come here??”

“Please protect us from the paladins.”

***

Walter, a warlock from the center of the continent.

He said that the reason he came across the sea to find Dave the Fixer was because of none other than the Holy Knight..

They say that paladins are suddenly coming to the center of the continent in large numbers and are slaughtering warlocks indiscriminately..

To be honest, it wasn't that strange..

One of the main tasks of a paladin was to hunt warlocks. Rather, it could be said to be natural..

“However, he said it was different from usual... Did you get the idea??”

A basement located underground in Area X. There, Oliver taught Marie her magic and asked,.

The magic being taught was none other than Ptah's Assistant, and it was a mixture of pure magic school and life school magic..

It was very delicate and difficult to activate, let alone use, but Oliver touched Marie's body. He taught me tricks by directly manipulating the flow of magical power..

Marie delicately assembled the extracted magical power to create a mechanical hand that was as thin as a needle but sharp as a scalpel..

“Well done.”

“thank you Thanks to Dave for teaching me directly..”

“Well then, shall we get right to work??”

Oliver pointed to an operating table in the middle of the basement and a human dummy lying on it..

It was a human body model carved out of wood, and those with a sharp eye could see that the tree had not been carved out of wood, but had grown into the shape of a woman's body..

The human model was separated into joints, and bundles of nerves like tree roots were semi-connected between them..

The reason it was only half-connected was because Oliver stopped working in the middle, and the reason he stopped working was to give Marie a try..

Since ancient times, the only way to learn quickly is through actual practice..

“You saw what I was doing earlier, right? give it a try.”

“Is it okay if I touch it? This is a piece that Dave has been working on.?”

“It doesn't matter. Even if I make a mistake, I can correct it, so please feel free..”

At Oliver's insistence, Marie steeled herself and operated the magical mechanical hand she had just created..

I started connecting the nerve bundles one by one, just like Oliver did..

Each nerve bundle has a pair, so if you made a mistake, you had to start over from the beginning, but Marie didn't make that mistake, even though the operation was a bit awkward..

Proof that you watched and observed what Oliver was doing..

Rather, as Oliver trusted and supported me until the end, I gained confidence and calmly connected the root nerves one by one..

“great. You can continue..”

Marie, who gained more courage, discarded her last remaining hesitation and continued working, and thanks to this, the work progressed quite well..

Even if I taught you some tricks, I never thought it would go this far. I didn't know I might be more talented than I thought..

“Can you ask what's different??”

Marie suddenly asked a question while working..

“yes?”

“You said the warlock from the center of the continent was different from usual, right? Can you tell what's different??”

Chatting during class was prohibited, but Oliver answered instead of giving attention..

It was Oliver who brought up the topic of dust, and Marie didn't just ask either..

“hmm····. Originally, it was said that even paladins were not very interested in the center of the continent. However, for some reason, it is said that the Holy Knights of the Church of Pater are dispatching a large number of Holy Knights to find and kill not only the warlocks who are causing problems, but also the warlocks who are quiet. It's almost a massacre..”

Oliver didn't bother to explain the reason. It was too much, complicated, and boring to explain them all..

“Why don’t you come to our branch in Gallos??”

Choosing people in Gallos. Currently there were warlocks there who were promised survival on the condition that they be under the supervision of the Church of Pater..

It was created as a result of a deal between Archpriest Armand and Oliver. Oliver offered the black magicians in Gallos to cooperate for order and safety, and disposed of those who refused accordingly..

Thanks to this, after the death of the human meat cook, the number of rampaging warlocks decreased exponentially, and now there are some administrative positions and Child Force of the Chosen People under Marie..

“They said that the sent paladins blocked the road. The reason is to prevent confusion caused by refugees, but Mr. Walter said it was just to kill all the warlocks..”

“So, why did you ask for help?······.”

“He said he would come in person and mediate with the paladins..”

“Can I ask what your answer was??”

“······First of all, I refused.”

If it was obvious, it was obvious, and if it was unexpected, it was unexpected..

“I can only cooperate with paladins in Gallos. In fact, the entire position of Paterism is not resolved..”

Oliver once again looked at his current situation with the Pater Church..

It was true that Oliver benefited from Paterism's support, but in reality it was localized and limited..

Because there was only one person who sponsored it, Cardinal Armand..

Of course, it was true that thanks to the powerful authority of the Cardinal Priest, he received direct and indirect help in various fields..

If it weren't for the support of the Church of Pater in the first place, there wouldn't have been any talk of establishing a black magic school in the Magic Tower..

However, that didn't mean Oliver could wander around randomly..

The clearing out of the warlocks in Gallos was not led by Oliver, but was simply done as instructed by Armand..

The areas where Oliver could exert influence were extremely limited to Landa, the front yard, and Gallos, Armand's territory, and for that reason, Oliver refused Walter's request..

“Also, there is something I need to do here... Do you think I went a little too far??”

“I don't think it's a question of right or wrong. Just Dave. It's up to you to decide. I plan to support whatever decision is made..”

Marie spoke to Oliver in a comforting way, and it actually helped..

“The warlock named Valter didn't say anything.?”

“Oh, he accepted it more calmly than I expected and just walked away..”

That was true. When Oliver refused, he only expressed intense regret and sadness on the inside, but did not try to persuade anyone further on the outside..

It's probably a way to live in the center of the continent. So I was more concerned.

“Are you okay??”

“Yes, it's okay. It's already in the past. Let's focus on work now. Have you finished your work??”

Marie nodded..

According to the answer, all of the root nerve bundles of the human model were well connected. This is a passing grade.

Oliver looked at each root nerve bundle, connected the joints to complete the human model, and draped it over his shoulder..

“Let's go.”

“Where are you talking about??”

“Magic tower. This is something to use in the magic tower..”

“ah······. Are you going to stay that way??”

Marie asked, looking at the wooden dummy resting on Oliver's shoulder..

As mentioned earlier, it was based on a woman's body, and perhaps thanks to Oliver's aesthetic sense, it was made much better than expected. very well.

For reference, of course the human body model was naked..

“yes.”

“Ah, yes.”

Mari, overwhelmed by the unknown force, could no longer speak and followed, and after a while, the magic tower fell into two confusions..

First, Landa's hero appeared carrying a human body model modeled after a female body on his shoulder.,

“Ugh. what?”

The second was when a cardinal priest of the Pater Church visited the Magic Tower..

Please help us eradicate the evil warlocks coming from the center of the continent..
