Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 253

There are always a variety of methods that can be used to achieve a ‘winning’ result in all aspects..

The same goes for fighting. It is nothing new that there are endless things to consider, such as the choice of weapon, cowardice and fairness, direct and indirect, etc. It is even more natural that others will acknowledge or deny the victory depending on which of the numerous methods was chosen..

Knowing this very well, Garun was lost in thought for a moment..

How will people accept Eldmia's actions??

Of course, Eldmia doesn't know, but after the Favaera incident, Garun unintentionally investigated him and became attached to him knowingly or unknowingly. Of course, if he was a villain or a pleasure killer, instead of being affectionate with him, all of his actions would have been collected and sent to the royal family as evidence, but in terms of his actions and achievements, the boy is already like a mercenary who flies and crawls. He doesn't seem to care about laws or anything, but he keeps the good and protects people. Although it seemed enormous, there was a lot of affection..

He couldn't ignore the fact that he was so merciless towards beings outside of his eyes, but compared to the countless people he had met in his life, Eldmia was considered a decent person. It's just that he is a human being with clearly defined factors that can cause seizures..

Therefore, Garun hoped that Eldmia would stay active for a long time and write more stories, but the problem is that the external appearance of Eldmia is chaos itself..

Good deeds are not flaunted, retaliation is not in moderation, and no matter who the opponent is, if he is wronged, he pushes ahead. Behind that confidence, it is backed by clear evidence that makes you wonder how hard this young guy studied to know such things. If you look closely, you can see that he is far from a mad dog that runs wild without thinking..

Thanks to this, some smart people understand that he is unusual and keep a reasonable distance from him, thinking of him as a troublemaker, but not everyone will only look at him from such a positive perspective..

15Because the reality is that there are more people who do not admit that a one-year-old boy is better than them. Even people who try to stay as quiet as possible become objects of jealousy just because of their outstanding talent, and it seems like they are going crazy believing in their talent and not knowing how scary the world is, so it will seem even worse to those who don't know better..

The more famous people get involved with him and the more power he gains, the colder his gaze will become. Even if Eldmia himself does not ask for any help from those around him, in the end, the situation he induces will make people who don't know anything look like an unlucky guy who gets preferential treatment and goes on a rampage..

"Umm. As expected, it was done on a grand scale.."

To those people, the reason they came together may seem a bit foolish, but Eldmia's actions of completely overthrowing a civilian guild that was normal on the surface will never be viewed favorably..

"excuse me. I came from the Adventurer's Guild. I'll just pass by."

It was a truly unique experience to confidently move forward while asking for understanding from onlookers, unlike usual when one had to hide oneself all the time, but because what Eldmia had done was so extraordinary, there was no particular emotion. Even though he ran in a hurry, it was too late and adventurers from a civilian guild lying outside the building came into view..

No, to be exact, I saw corpses and injured people who were adventurers..

At a glance, it seemed like seven people were dead and only three or four were still alive, which was the number of wrinkles that would be etched between Engrim's eyebrows. However, as far as he knew, there were about twenty civilian guild members, not including those who had previously clashed with Eldmia. In the end, the remaining people were said to be confronting Eldmia inside that building..

"Write it. I was going to pick up some more chocolate and eat it.."

If so, wouldn't it have arrived when there was a lull?.

Garun, who had no ability to turn back time and had already entered through the crowd of onlookers saying he was a member of the guild, had no option of waiting until Eldmia came out. He stepped into the building, which had a dungeon-like atmosphere, hoping that the guild members that Engrim had sent separately to the guards would arrive in time..

Contrary to the expectation that it would be a mess due to the broken door, the inside of the building was clean and not particularly damaged. The floor was clean and the stairs were also clean..

And the six corpses lying on the stairs and on the floor were also very clean..

"Wow, looks like he brought that unidentified weapon.."

The dead bodies were all dead with holes in their bodies and their eyes open. Garun's face suddenly became serious as he remembered the sight of cultists being wiped out from a distance with a projectile whose mechanism was unknown..

Even though a large number of adventurers rushed into this narrow place, their wounds were the same. That doesn't mean it was pierced by a single blow, it did pierce a vital point, but everything is different..

If I hadn't seen it in person, I would have dismissed it as a bad joke, as the arrow was fast enough to pierce and kill everyone without even having time to swing the sword properly. Even the trajectory was arbitrary..

"Is it a dancing arrow?..."

While Eldmia was placed on the list of people he would never want to turn into enemies even if he were on active duty, Garun quickly inspected the corpse and quickly ran up when he noticed a noise coming from the second floor. It's already too late, but let's save those who can be saved so that Engrim will have at least one less wrinkle..

And only when his wrinkles appear less often will his work become easier..

The source of the intentionally loud noise was at the end of the hallway leading to the second floor terrace. In contrast to the beautiful scenery where the door to the terrace, the only one in the building made of stained glass, catches the light of the street lamp and spreads colorful light, Garun even fluffed his hair as he looked at Eldmia, who was looking at him with an expression that looked like she was about to kill someone at any moment. I felt myself bristling..

However, Eldmia actually looked at Garun's face and opened her mouth with a puzzled expression..

"Garoon?"

Oh my god. I only saw it once, but I never thought I would remember it. She didn't know what kind of reaction she would get if she found out that she had been prying around after Elde Mia, so Garun broke into a cold sweat and raised her arms..

"Hey, bro! long time no see. I didn't think you'd remember me."

"How... wasn't he dead??"

"ah? ah! Favaera. This left a misunderstanding. I'm actually an investigator for the guild. At that time, I deliberately hid myself in order to investigate Favaera.."

Behind Eldmia, who had an expression of both embarrassment and surprise, Dantel, who was crawling on the floor with holes in his knees, was rolling his eyes, pouring out cold sweat and tears. However, she did not try to run away when Eld Mia turned her attention away from her. Garun could easily guess that it was not Dantel's will, but rather the coercion caused by the dancing arrows floating next to Eldmia's head..

"anyway. That's why I'm here now. If it's okay with you, I'd like to leave that sex offender alone and talk for a bit.?"

"...Is that the guild's position??"

Shit. By the looks of it, he's 15 years old. A 15-year-old who senses what I'm trying to say and gets straight to the point? Even the cheap adventurer novels sold in the market won’t feature a protagonist like that..

Feeling a chill on the back of his neck for a moment, Garun shook his head calmly. And, hoping that this time, his face would feel a little less scary, he smiled as gently as possible..

"The guild's position has always been to minimize conflict. If that's what you asked, then yes. However, if you were asking whether I am in a position to protect and defend my friends in this civilian guild, not yet. We don't know the whole story."

Fortunately, as if it wasn't a bad answer, Eldmia retracted the hostility that had been pouring out towards her and touched her chin. If the meaning of that action was no different from that of others, it meant that he was worried about something, and Garun felt like he had found a glimmer of hope there..

"I'm still an excellent employee at the guild, so I've heard some rumors about you. Since your record is impressive these days, there are more than one person who is interested.."

"...however?"

"So, I have a vague idea why you are doing this. If a friend who doesn't go crazy until something goes wrong starts going crazy, it usually means that the situation is right for him to do so.?"

Garun continued his explanation, showing subtle favor to Eldmia, who looked at him blankly as if asking her to say more..

"From what I can see, these friends also rushed at you with great determination, but you attacked them without even drawing a proper weapon, so self-defense would be established. I don't know what caused the clash before that, but we will find out when we investigate. If the rumors you've been spreading are true, it will end without any problems anyway. But Dantel... It means that it unintentionally became a little separate. You're incapacitated.."

Not only is he not holding a proper weapon, but he can't even move his legs because his knees are shattered. It would have been better if his legs were still intact, but Garun also had a position..

"Since I am a member of the guild, I am ultimately here to do official work. Acts of violence against incapacitated opponents must be prevented. However, if you kill him now, it may look like you have disobeyed the guild's formal mediation.."

"so?"

"I'm not saying this to threaten or coerce you... but what I'm saying is that you can't avoid your own punishment. It may be a minor punishment for you, but it's not worth it for Dantel.?"

So, let's put down our weapons and step back..

Since he was a smart friend, there was no need to talk back. In fact, Eldmia nodded her head as if she understood, so Garun thought his persuasion worked..

"that's right. It's not worth it now."

However, contrary to her verbal consent, Eldmia stretched out her arm and grabbed Dantel by the collar and lifted her up. Even though she was clearly an adult male, she looked as calm as if she was lifting an ordinary load. Garun was momentarily dazed by her appearance. Before she could come to her senses, Eld Mia continued..

"This baby is worth it only to die."

"Fuck, fuck! A dog like a dog! Fuck you! Fuck you! dog! Fuck...!"

Before Garun could react, Eldmia threw Dantel, who was spitting and swearing, towards the door..

And Dantel, who was swayed by a force stronger than when he lifted it, smashed the glass door and flew outside with a face that did not accept the situation..

"Sibaaaal!!"

Garun's tense nerves slowly began to take in the entire situation unfolding before his eyes. As the world seemed to slow down, Garun belatedly realized how nervous he was..

In that slow world, the image of Dantel flying out of the terrace, spattering blood through the flying glass, and Eldmia throwing him away and turning around to look at her with a calm expression, created a very strange scene..

Eldmia spoke in that strange moment of time..

"Its value as a result that proves that my warning will not be repeated twice.."

Taking those words as a signal, the rapidly rotating projectile next to Eldmia was shot towards Dantel..
