31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 435)

Afterwards, Kang Seol had a detailed discussion with Ji An about helping her, and then conveyed this to Mariju.. 

- This is something I cannot judge on my own. Let’s talk about at least a part of the Silver Lion Association.. 

As a result, two days later, a dozen nobles who became the main members of the Silver Lion Association gathered at the table.. 

Before starting, Mariju said this to Kang Seol:. 

- Most of them are on the moderate side of the special committee, but there are definitely some who are not. If you threaten them with force, the results will not be good.. 

This means explaining it as understandably as possible. Surprisingly enough, Kangseol felt that it was the most difficult task.. 

‘Where to start….’ 

When we entered the meeting, the first thing Farah asked was. 

“The reason we gathered everyone here is?” 

“One thing I would like to tell you is how things are going..” 

“Tell me.” 

“Good job. I'm listening.” 

Nobles were especially fond of visible achievements. I wondered if the special committee had scratched their itch in that respect.. 

“There is a covenant attached to a part of Jian's memory..” 

“If it's an oath….” 

“If you reveal the truth to someone you don't know, your head will explode and you will die..” 

“such a terrible thing….” 

“Is it true? Are you sure? I know that there are parts of curses and spells that are similar to oaths.?” 

“There is a person in the special unit who is well versed in magic. Confirmation completed.” 

“You have to verify it at the intersection. Even different types of oaths are different..” 

“There is a person who is well versed in magic in the special rank. Sorting is finished.” 

“…Huh. Is it true??” 

- There is a person in the special unit who is truly versed in the matter. Really. 

- There is a person who is well versed in orthodoxy on the special committee. Anyway, you think so.. 

“What about torture? It's true that all possible methods were used.?” 

Kang Seol looked in that direction when someone asked a low-level question.. 

“Look, even if you torture them, your head will explode if you reveal it.….” 

“ah… . Right.” 

“giggle….” 

“What are you doing to lower your level? really….” 

A small talk that makes you feel that the internal relationship of the Silver Lion Association is not that good.. 

“Damn it, there's nothing to be gained from capturing the leadership alive.!” 

“Let's get it straight. But thanks to him, I found my groove..” 

“And that's only Shirlene! Other than this guy, there are no leaders captured alive.!” 

“Still, I think it did quite a bit of damage... How do you see it??” 

Snowfall answered the question. 

“They say it hit the council like a claw..” 

“ha… What should I do with this??” 

Farah was wearing a belly band as if the injury she suffered last time had not yet healed.. 

Grumbling… 

He got up from his chair, looked around, and said. 

“That alone is not enough! This is a fact that everyone here knows! We can't be satisfied with just that! I'd like to tell you that things have gone terribly wrong..” 

“that… yes.” 

“That's right.” 

“Farah's right..” 

Kang Seol nodded at his words.. 

Farah spoke seriously.. 

“The Silver Lion Association has gathered together to regain the leadership that was lost to criminals, so I think that goal must be achieved..” 

“It's not wrong..” 

“Only if we achieve our original goal will no one look down on us. Farah's right..” 

Surprisingly, Para was helpful to Snowfall.. 

He asked this with a pretty cool expression on his face.. 

“I guess they brought us together because there are better options than executing him.?” 

“…you're right.” 

Meanwhile, Farah sits down with her legs awkwardly crossed. He seemed to be playing a confident nobleman.. 

“Tell me, anything. 'Cause I'm a pretty open-minded aristocrat.” 

“I'm thinking of releasing Jian..” 

“…what? What, what? Say that again? i was wrong….” 

“We need to free Jian..” 

At Jiang Xue's words, most of the nobles of the Silver Lion Society stood up and pointed at each other.. 

“Well, what does that mean?!” 

“You're thinking of releasing a criminal you just caught! Is that the right thing to do now?!” 

“Nonsense!” 

I took a quick look and it seemed like the majority was against it.. 

‘Do I have no choice but to go out strong??’ 

As Snowfall was stroking her chin, she saw a man engulfed in worry.. 

‘…aha.’ 

Snowfall suddenly spit out at him.. 

“What do you think, Farah??” 

“What, what?” 

“I can't tell Jian the truth, so I'm thinking of asking them for guidance..” 

“……Is it true??” 

“Yes, they said that if you do that, you can break down the cognitive boundaries of the pledge, and later you can even reap the pledge with weakened boundaries..” 

Once again, Farah started acting like something big.. 

“What are the detailed locations to move with him? Is it within the federation??” 

“They say it's outside the jurisdiction..” 

“Are you really talking about a non-governed area??” 

“That's right.” 

“…oh my god.” 

ungoverned territory. 

To put it simply, it means a land outside the kingdom belonging to the federation.. 

Although it is a northern land, it is full of monsters, criminals, and natives.. 

‘The northern kingdoms were created after the indigenous people were forced out there in the first place..’ 

I lead Jian, the head of the council, into that dangerous, cold land.. 

“The entire special committee is going there, believing only what the criminal says.?” 

“To be exact, only half of the special committee will go..” 

“…what?” 

“There are two reasons why it is divided in half..” 

- I stay. I'm thinking of creating a solution that relieves the side effects of drugs..

The story Ur told Kangseol last night. He said Home seemed to be about more than just a financial resource for them.. 

And I repeatedly said that I wanted to know more about the ingredient called atromil.. 

Kang Seol explained to the nobles gathered here what atromil is and emphasized its danger by mentioning cases of people addicted to it dying suddenly.. 

“home… No, it's now called Atromil. We know that too. Even now, federal alchemists are hanging around.….” 

“There is a risk that it will be a race against time, so we are going to take action ourselves..” 

“…Are you confident? Better than Federal Alchemists?” 

“…of course.” 

Farah snapped her fingers.. 

Taaak-! 

“Yeah, for another reason?” 

“Through internal and external information exchange, we plan to find those still hiding within the Federation..” 

“This means that the current investigative power alone is not enough.?” 

Snowfall grinned.. 

Replacing an answer with laughter is a pretty cool thing to do. 

Farah responded by raising one corner of her mouth. He looked very satisfied.. 

“As expected, it's not enough..” 

“surely… Considering the achievements of the special committee, it would be reassuring to see at least some of them remain. and… Nope.” 

The words I just swallowed were probably an argument that Snowfall's entire power should not be let out of the Federation.. 

Farah asked a question while playing a capable nobleman.. 

“What else to say?” 

“In exactly one month, the contract between the Silver Lion Association and the Special Committee will expire. From then on, everything will be done solely based on my judgment, and it will not be my goal to promote the majesty of the Silver Lion Association by clearing out the entire council. Whether it's a home related issue or a federal issue..” 

A sign not to interfere with me. 

Someone among the nobles spoke up. 

“But you hired us….” 

“I am not in a position to receive instructions..” 

“…Are you saying you are going to take what you get and walk away? In that way….” 

“To put it bluntly, we will never be able to catch them or find out their purpose with this kind of sloppy movement..” 

“…….” 

“I plan to take Jian to the non-administered area within a few days. Looking forward to a wise answer.” 

Clap… 

As soon as I closed the door and came out, a war of words began between the nobles inside.. 

Snowfall waited quietly until their opinions were resolved.. 

‘Farah was more helpful than I thought..’ 

It seemed like he wanted to be an important position in the Silver Lion Association, and it was noticeable that he was anxious to show it.. 

Kang Seol caught that moment and used it as a good means of persuasion and laughed, saying she was lucky.. 

‘It's a little awkward, but it's not a bad feeling..’ 

Thinking back, I was glad he didn't hit me on the head when he came. I never thought we could talk like this. 

Of course, I'm just pretending to understand, but. 

Anyway, some time passed and the minion found Snow Seol.. 

“Chairman Kang Seol, the adults of the Silver Lion Association are looking for you..” 

“Let them know you'll be there right away..” 

“yes….” 

When Kang Seol returned to the meeting place, the Silver Lion Society was looking at each other in a strange way.. 

The nobles looked a little upset, as if they didn't like Farah's leading actions and Kang Seol's proposal.. 

And there are more people supporting Mariju and Farah than they do.. 

Farah spoke up. 

“There is a condition.” 

“Let's listen.” 

I thought there would be conditions. It didn't make sense to let a criminal, no matter how stupid he was, be released without any restrictions.. 

“After one month, can I renew my contract with the special committee??” 

“…As long as the conditions are right.” 

Snowfall has proven its worth and will probably demand higher terms.. 

“Another thing, I plan to form an expedition team..” 

“…It's just inconvenient and not effective..” 

“You are not leading. Just acting as a liaison..” 

“If I don't control it... These are the people who will watch over me..” 

“No, because we will appoint a separate person to monitor it. Hey, Syndio..” 

Sigh… 

A wizard wearing glasses approached. She had the scent of a mature woman. And at the same time, a powerful magical energy. 

‘…It's pretty good.’ 

As soon as Kangseol saw him for the first time, he looked at Farah with surprised eyes.. 

“He is the strongman promoted by the Silver Lion Association. There's nothing to hide. Syndio will assist you during your journey and keep an eye on you at the same time..” 

“The purpose of the expedition is to check on Syndio..” 

“It's similar.” 

dual surveillance system. 

wasn't a bad idea. 

snowfall said coldly. 

“I will not interfere with Syndio's life or the safety of the expedition..” 

Sindio said bluntly:. 

“I will protect my body.” 

Farah nodded.. 

“That's enough.” 

Kangseol grinned and held out his hand to Farah.. 

“There was no one I could communicate with better than Farah, but today I had a valuable experience..” 

When Kangseol praised Farah, he shook her hand with a tearful expression on his face.. 

“I'm always open. I just turned on Woongji. I look forward to a good cooperative relationship in the future.!” 

Mariju looked at Snowfall with a cowardly look in her eyes..

[Title: Crazy, anyone who saw the expedition recruitment post?] 

Are you a large company? They don't really do anything, but they give me compensation like that.? 

- Take down the post! Competition rate goes up! 

- He just follows me around and gives me treasure haha. 

- To be precise, it is time consuming. Because I can't develop in the meantime. 

- I'm an undeveloped person by nature, so I'm intrigued..

[Title: Not at all; It doesn't appeal to me at all] 

The non-governed area is a country full of barbarians and monsters; Compensation will only be paid to those who survived there and came back alive.… 

- Wipe the saliva from your mouth and speak. 

- Chureup… Did you get caught?? 

- It's my first big adventure in a while haha. It's a complete festival..

[Title: Silver Lion Society or something] 

The nobles are big-hearted.; 

But I'm a bit of the opposite. 

It seems like they treat life with contempt.. 

People were born and treasures were born. Was treasure born and people born?? 

- Pandea produced treasures and people.. 

- ah! ㅇㅋ We need to support it generously.~ 

- Oh, I can't apply because I got a template level cut.… 

- What kind of native bastards even know the transfer and temp level cuts?? 

- This is also the process of us becoming one..

[Title: T.O. Why are you so red?….] 

And the big guild will take it all. Chairman of the special committee! Are you watching this? I heard about something called transference. Please increase T.O. just a little bit.. 

- Tio, if you increase it a little, I will bow down.. 

- I was a job seeker even before I transferred. Give me a chance! 

- Here too, we have to chase after talented people.… 

- So are you dissatisfied?? 

- at all! So sweet! Oh, so ecstatic~ So Delicious~

Kang Seol was looking at Jian, who was released overnight with a fine appearance.. 

“After all, people should have good friends. Kid, okay?” 

When Jian spoke to Tansia as if she was friendly, Tansia held Kangseol's hand tightly.. 

Jian looked at the sky while touching the bag of bone powder on his waist.. 

“The oath saved my life. Tsk tsk… But will you be okay? Even if you release me.” 

“Don't talk nonsense, just think about guiding me properly..” 

“Oh, of course.” 

Han So-mi spoke to Kang Seol with a gloomy expression.. 

“I wanted to go with you….” 

“Still, I've been sent to the capital, so it's not okay.?” 

“That's good, but... Thanks to you, I got promoted quickly..” 

Han So-mi decided to remain in the federation. She may join later, but we don't know yet. 

“But who stays here??” 

thud… 

thud… 

“…Nope?” 

“It's me, woman.” 

Jamard stood in front of Han So-mi.. 

A height that is too difficult to look up at. 

“……Was this really the only way? Will Pandea be destroyed tomorrow??” 

“Jamard will protect you in any situation..” 

As soon as information was received about the hidden council in the city, there had to be someone left who could strike.. 

Without thinking for a long time, I thought Jamard was suitable.. 

No matter who comes, it is obvious that they will be crushed by Jamad, and Han So-mi will be able to protect them without difficulty.. 

Ur said it was more convenient that way.. 

“under… haha… It's reliable. So Jamard and I’s mission is….” 

“We must find and destroy those remaining within the Federation..” 

“It's cooperation between inside and outside. Joint investigation! is not it? Sounds fun.!” 

Ur spoke while looking at the snowfall.. 

“I will join Jamard as soon as the cancellation of the contract with Atromil is finalized..” 

“okay.” 

Sindio, who was dispatched as Snowfall's guard and watcher, urged him on.. 

“They say the expedition will follow you as soon as it is formed. It looks like it's been properly configured..” 

“That's fast.” 

“I just want things to be done correctly. then… Let's go.” 

Snowfall's party started moving using Castrang. The destination is not the central capital of the Federation, but the extremities of the territory extending across the southern part of the Federation.. 

Traversing the Federation at breakneck speed, they finally reached the non-administrative zone, a land where no blood flows.. 

“From here on, you can only enter if you have a valid reason..” 

Sigh… 

A scroll with the seal of the Bureau of Investigation was given to the guard.. 

“…Has confirmed. I hope you're okay.” 

I don't know how it happened, but it seemed to be going well so far.. 

- If we don't stop it, the North will be devastated within three years. And then it'll be Pandea.

Jian’s warning that I heard that morning. 

Kang Seol looked at the back of his head.. 

“ha… The air is nice.” 

“There is no time to relax. Hurry up.” 

“I didn't decide not to interfere.?” 

“The only person I don’t interfere with is Kang Seol..” 

“I got a mom.” 

“Who, who is the mother?!” 

“Even if you urge me, my feet won't move faster. It snows more than that.” 

Jian's eyes rested on Kangseol.. 

“I might regret it, is that okay? You believe me. Because of the oath, you have to follow my words.?” 

“No regrets, not yet.” 

“…Come to think of it, you are not a member of the Silver Lion Society. Not even from the North. What did you want??” 

“…the truth about this.” 

“iced coffee… It did.” 

Jian said with a decadent gaze, looking at the ground where the cold was coming.. 

“Definitely you... let me meet them.” 

At that moment, something appeared in Kangseol’s message window.. 

[Start your next adventure.] 

[The thirty-sixth adventure begins.] 

[Adventure 36. Kokoro cried] 

…… 

The beginning of a completely ordinary, new adventure. However, the message that followed made his face darken.. 

[I have the experience of completing a long trek for the first time..] 

[The advance team's perk is activated..] 

[The current adventure has a high probability of leading to a campaign.] 

As soon as Kang Seol read the message, she uttered an unspeakable curse.. 

“…Yes.” 

Tansia walked away from Kang Seol with startled eyes and clung to Karen. And pointed her finger at the snowfall. 

“I said something bad!” 

“pee… You can't learn things like that..”
