Chapter 159
My Villains Episode 159
40. Again, trackers.(3)
“trunnion.”
The bundle was waiting for me in the courtyard of the permanent residence. He hid his hands behind his back and kept his gaze down..
“It’s cold. Did you wait here? I'm in my room.”
“Oh, no, no.”
The bundle, which had been feeling restless for some reason, sighed and lowered its head..
“It's a rebirth.”
“what?”
“Give it to people. Poi doesn't order it, I order it. It's a rebirth.”
“……I'm sorry for killing someone when I didn't ask you to.?”
“Yes, that one. That's all.”
In my experience, admitting a mistake before being reprimanded is a pretty good way to behave. This is a skill that works especially well in organizations with a strong hierarchy..
“Off ” O •
It doesn't feel very pleasant.
Not only do I have no intention of becoming the boss of the group, but what he said was a bit out of focus..
a huh”
I was thinking about how to tell people why they shouldn't kill people, and I burst into laughter without realizing it..
It's funny..
The number of people I have killed since coming to this world is over 200. On that topic, you tried to go on a long argument about why you shouldn't commit murder..
“Well done today.”
“......yes?”
I lowered my voice as I glanced at the young maids busily walking around..
“The old man you killed was called Maurio, and he was completely human..”
“Eh, Maljjong?”
“He's a bad guy. Good kill.”
“ ah.”
The bundle nodded at my unexpected compliment. He pretends nothing is wrong, but he seems to be in a good mood when he bounces his heels..
“But, it's a bunch..”
“yes?”
“I got lucky this time.”
“Use your luck?”
“okay. This time it was worth dying for, but if not?”
I continued talking as I took him to one side of the courtyard to avoid the soldiers in shifts..
“What if you accidentally kill him and it turns out he wasn't such a bad guy??”
“to……
‘'How do I do it?' Big, black eyes whose questions are so easy to read.
I scratched my eyebrows and shrugged my shoulders..
“Something bad will happen to you and me too. Well, it might break your heart, and you might have to hunt them down with a bounty on them..”
“yes.”
The distant look in your eyes makes me sigh..
“……Anyway, you shouldn't kill people carelessly. When you feel like you need to kill someone, ask me if possible..”
“Yes, I understand..”
The response to words spoken in a command tone is very cheerful. Suddenly the swordsman's backstory comes to mind..
‘Mugeomhoe (無劍會)’, an organization that operates in secret among the five kingdoms of the East. The swordsman was a type of hitman secretly trained by the martial arts club..
The broken morals and the habit of following orders are probably due to that background..
“Still, it's a bunch..”
“yes?”
“Killing people is very... … . Well, it's heavy stuff. Just because you got my permission doesn't mean the burden of murder is lessened..”
“to……
“So, you must be able to make your own decisions and take responsibility. Until you get used to that judgment, ask me. Okay?”
To my pride, Mungchi's face suddenly took on a serious glow. The guy who was silent as if he was thinking over my words soon nodded..
The first thing that greeted us as we entered the backyard of the residence was Utequai's shout..
“Phoenix, you're late again!”
“……Are you okay, are you? Rest until today?”
“No. The more you rest, the more it spreads like a cow's butt..”
Perhaps in the midst of training, Ute Kwai's naked upper body was glistening with sweat. Nearby, Amias' gang, excluding Buni, was lying covered in dust..
“Hehe, hehe. Are you here, Nari?.”
“Boonie‘?”
Among the guys who were eagerly greeting each other, Steedman, who was blowing steam from his shaved head, stood up and answered..
“Okay. I'm learning how to write from a scribe called Veldin or something..”
“From this morning?”
“yes. Anyway, that rotten bastard needs to know about his fluttering feet.” I burst out laughing at his grumbling..
“That excitement, I ordered it.?”
“Uh, yeah?”
The demon swordsman Simos was also out in the backyard. After being startled by my gaze for a moment, she greeted me with a calm face..
“Sir Phoenics.”
“You were training together too.?”
“yes. To help me get used to my remaining eye, I put on a hunchback..”
“okay?”
When I looked at Simos, his dark gray eyes were shaking slightly..
The demon swordsman Simos, no, the blue-haired Mosis still looked afraid of me. It seems like the hoax I showed you five days ago was quite believable..
“……simos.”
“yes, yes?”
“Shall we talk for a moment later, um, around sunset? I have something to ask.”
When I smiled brightly, she swallowed dryly and nodded..
“…… yes. All right." The protagonist of the resumed training was none other than Munchi. Well, it’s natural since it’s a new face..
Since I was sufficiently relaxed from my early morning walk, I immediately tried sparring with him..
I was worried that Mungchi would understand how to fight, where you have to try not to hurt your opponent as much as possible, let alone kill him, but he also knows sparring..
“Now, start when it's convenient for you..”
“……to.”
As he pounded on his shield and spoke, Mungchi adjusted his club and held it with a slight hesitation. He looked very reluctant, but that lasted only for a moment..
“That one,”
“ oh.”
A short exclamation came from nearby. It was because of the momentum of the bundle..
The atmosphere of awkwardness, shyness, and a slight sense of helplessness disappeared in an instant. The guy exuded sharp energy, like a coolly forged blade..
“hmm.”
A pleasant feeling of victory beats my heart. I have a feeling it will be a fun sparring match.…….
To conclude, my premonition was completely wrong..
Sparring with a bunch was neither fun nor nutritious. It was a matter of compatibility rather than a difference in skills..
Basically, my style was to keep my defenses strong and use my excellent physical abilities to suppress the opponent..
Martial arts revived with Poinix's memories, know-how learned while training with the knights of Ulcar, and Nabook taught by Utequai were added, but basically, it is the same..
On the other hand, Mungchi had a style of avoiding the opponent's attacks and aiming for a single shot..
Because of this compatibility, the group couldn't break through my defenses, so it just circled around, and I couldn't catch it, so I ended up playing tag..
In the end, I sighed and ended the meaningless sparring..
“Okay, let's stop..”
“…… Yes, *hehe* yes, the almost acrobatic performance based on excellent body movements and flexibility was amazing, but Munggi was a bit weak in stamina..
but. According to the character sheet, her health is lower than that of Ellen, so that could be the case..
But what was even more surprising than that was his swordsmanship..
The club did not even try to meet each other. I thought I was avoiding it because I didn't have enough strength, but when I tried to force it, the sword itself was a bit clumsy. To be honest, it is much worse than Grania, the mercenary I met in South Harbor..
The man's face, as he was catching his breath, seemed to have sensed my disappointment, and then darkened..
“Hey, *sigh* I need something else..”
“I like something different?”
“yes. I can't fight with a sword. Something else, *hehe* Joyoyo.”
“……Swordsmanship is not my specialty, this is it?”
“Even so, specialty. “Hiding, throwing, and, uh, using poison are my specialties.” He said and laughed..
……He is a swordsman whose weakness is swordsmanship. Somehow I feel like déjà vu..
Well, it's natural because it's a build that specializes in ninjutsu and martial arts rather than weaponry. Somehow, I can't help but laugh..
“I can't laugh! Munch, your skills are terrible.!”
“Ex.”
The thing that made the fluttering bundle shrink was Utequai with his teeth clearly exposed..
“This it.”
After being surprised for a moment, Munggi glared at Utequai with wary eyes. The guy chuckled, raised his quarterstaff, and gestured to the crowd..
“Hehe, don't roll your eyes and attack me. I am not Phoenix. No need to be pretentious.”
The bundle looked back at me as if asking for permission. It's very fierce.
“eww......”
......•
It's a sparring match between a berserker specializing in tattoos and a swordsman specializing in ninjutsu..
Although the result was obvious, I smiled and nodded..
“But why do they come together??”
“Why is there a bundle??”
Freckled Mira frowned at Steedman’s question..
“Why, you idiot. The name of the pig that Poynix raised before is called Monggi..”
“Oh, right. It was like that.”
Shaking the dirt off her knees, Mira lowered her voice..
“Isn’t there something exquisite? The name is just like that, and he appeared right after the pig disappeared..”
Mira said and glanced sideways at the corner of the exterior wall of the backyard..
There, an exotic oriental beauty was squatting with a sour face. The hardships she had gone through could be seen in the large footprints on her side and her dusty clothes..
“so? He's the little pig?”
“Maybe so. “Don’t you get suspicious when you see Poynix slipping away?” Steedman sneered as he looked into Mira's shining eyes..
“You are talking nonsense. How can a pig become a human, you stupid bitch??”
“……Stupid bitch? This bald pudgy bastard-”
Mira was about to growl, but leader Amias stopped her..
“If you have the energy to lose your temper, let's sort things out quickly. Because it seems like it will end soon for you two..”
What Amias was pointing at were Phoenics and Utequa, who occupied the middle of the backyard..
The two, with their upper bodies fully exposed, were fighting back and forth, shoulder to shoulder, like a bear or a bull..
Utequai, who had made a bold charge, pressed down with his large body and tried to use a technique, but Phoenix, who had fallen, stretched out his legs. As Utequai removed the legs that were entangled around his thighs and waist, Phoenix this time targeted his ankles and crooks..
Due to Phoenix's persistent attacks, Utekwai ended up giving up his head..
When Wu Tequai, whose face was redder than usual, tapped the forearm that was holding her neck, Poynix fell to the floor and cheered. It was a victory in three rounds..
“Ah, fidhos!”
Utequai got up, shook the sand off his body, and grumbled something. Amias quickly approached him and held out a water bag..
Poinix, who was handed a water bag after Ute Kwai, quenched his throat and poured water over his head. Streams of water flowed down the sculpted muscles in various directions..
“……Wow, crazy.” Leaving behind Mira, who was quietly swallowing dry saliva, archer Cole approached Poynix..
“Poinix.”
“uh?”
“someone is watching.”
“……where?”
“2This is the third window on the floor. Third from the left.”
Poynix moistened the water and looked around. Then he burst into laughter.
“Since when have you been watching??”
“Since the two of you started Nabouk
It's a place.”
“......okay?”
He nodded and tapped Cole on the shoulder a couple of times..
2After briefly stopping by on the floor, I returned to my room, scratched my eyebrows and asked Ellen..
“……Why do you meditate in the morning? Let's go get some food.”
The guy who was meditating on the bed slowly opened his eyes and shook his head..
“Eating isn't important right now.”
“then?”
“I learned a new spell. Two.”
“••••••aha.”
Well, since the levels went up all at once this time, we distributed a lot of bonuses..
Name: Ellen
level : 22
Class: Elemental Wizard

Strength - 12(14) Dexterity - 12(14)
Health - 16(22) Horsepower - 37(88)

blitz lpt
There were two new spells he learned..
The first one is ‘Killing Wind’’.
It is a wind magic that inflicts cutting damage in a narrow range. When we first met, this was the spell Ellen used with the power of the ‘West Wind’s Baton’..
The second was ‘cold armor’.
As the name suggests, it is a cold-type defensive magic, and although it is difficult to use, it is a useful skill in its own right. This is a spell that will make up for Ellen's meager survival skills..
“……But you don’t look good? It would be good if orders increased..”
“Well, it's not a bad thing..”
Ellen continued speaking with her lips slightly outstretched..
“It's still annoying.”
“It's annoying?”
“It's not the order I wanted..”
“……Just because of that?”
When I made an absurd expression, he shook his head with a serious face..
“'That's all.' I've been meditating for about a month and have only recovered the Earth-type spells. But then again, you learned the wrong spell..”
“You restored the order? That's how you can learn magic.?”
“It depends on talent. I've had success using this method before, so I was looking forward to it again this time.……
The achievement he was talking about was the 'blitz' that he learned on his own, even though I never took a picture of it. I remember being briefly confused when I saw the character sheet at the time..
Looking down at Ellen who looked sad, I smiled..
“I guess I wanted to learn a certain spell.?”
“••••••there is.”
“What is it? Just say something.”
“What will you do if you find out? Nothing changes.”
“Umm. Well, it is like that. Still, say it once.”
“You're curious.”
As we sat next to each other and hugged each other, Ellen gave an answer pretending not to win..
“……passage of land.”
“passage of the earth?”
It is a rank 2.5 skill of the Earth type. It is also a spell that the wizard Siren used to use a dryad's beard or something..
“Last time I saw it, it seemed like it was a difficult magic spell to use..”
“……Although it is not very efficient, it is a spell that has infinite ways to apply it..”
“Well, I see..”
I nodded for a moment and then expressed my intention..
“However, I said I would learn earth-type spells.?”
“I wanted to do that.”
“What you are good at are fire, cold, and wind spells. It's not better to specialize in that field.?”
“nonsense.”
The guy shook his head with a stern expression..
“I've said this time and time again, but the important thing is balance. You can only become a true great wizard if you can freely manipulate all five elements..”
“……Um, yeah?”
He is a wizard who can freely control all five elements. In other words, would it be ‘All Master’??
It was inefficient in the game..
You may be able to learn all five elements, but because you don't have enough skill points, you're likely to become an asshole. I probably won’t be able to learn the ultimate skill properly..
Suddenly, Trickster came to mind..
A bug character who used the Fire-type ultimate skill 'Dragon's Breath' in addition to the Urban theme.…….
Come to think of it, Ellen had already gotten free skill points several times. If you grow like this and gain enough skill points, won't you be able to become a true All Master??
“……Oh, no way.”
“what?”
When Ellen looked confused, I shook my head and stood up..
“no. Let's go eat something.”
After finishing the meal, I left the Yeongju Pavilion with the bundle. It was to buy his equipment..
The Amias gang was also there. There are a lot of supplies to replenish, such as torches, oil, and arrows..
Ellen stayed in the manor house, saying she would practice her newly learned spell, and Utequai went back to his room, saying he wanted to sleep some more..
While Amias' gang stopped by the general store, we visited the military store. Perhaps because it was a small estate, they sold not only weapons and armor, but also clothes..
I already picked a shield for the first time, and I also took a few javelins. There was nothing useful about the armor, so I just skipped it..
Did you say lupus? That armor was okay, but I guess I'll have to ask Dionea and borrow it again..
Meanwhile, the bundle,
Wow, how much is this?” "he.”
I took a lot of this and that..
I didn't like the shoes, so I picked up a pair of light boots, and a pair of thigh-high robes and vambraces. I chose a dagger that looked like an awl and a short sword, and I also took five light daggers..
As if that wasn't enough, Mungchi looked around the inside of the military store for a while..
“Why, what are you looking for??”
“Xiao nu. So, like this, shooting arrows..”
The store owner recognized the guy's gesture and quickly waved his hand..
“If you're talking about crossbows, there is no such thing. Not selling.”
“If you don't sell me the crossbow, give it to me..”
“In line??”
“yes. Crossbow, give me the string..”
“Not even that. “We sell finished equipment, we don’t judge strings or anything like that.” “Ugh.”
As a bonus, the store owner gave him a sword belt that he could wear..
By the time I left the Byeonggu branch after paying fifteen silver coins,.
“trunnion.”
Mungchi, dressed in all the equipment he had purchased, looked up at me with his hand on his waist..
Just a moment ago, he looked disappointed because he couldn't get the crossbow, but now his eyes are shining as if he's expecting something. what?
“……Well, it suits you well.?”
“swimming.”
That's correct.
After completing the purchase of supplies and joining the Amias gang, we looked around the quiet streets and headed to the Yeongjugwan..
And then, I witnessed an unexpected sight..
