I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 204
204fury
I left Ryzen alone and went up the stairs..
Now that I think about it, you said you were waiting on the rooftop??
The fact that the place you reach after passing the stairs is on the rooftop rather than on the ground means that the Abyss Auction is held in a high-rise building, as initially expected..
Whioooo-.
The moment I opened the door, a strong wind greeted me. It was a strong wind that could only be felt in the alpine regions..
“oh…….”
It was the top of a tower.
It didn't seem like a magic tower, but I'm actually not sure if this is an institution..
At such a high altitude, the area around the tower was completely shrouded in fog, and even when using the Hwaan Geumjeong, it was difficult to see beyond the fog..
This means it's not an ordinary fog..
The roof of the tower was a very dangerous structure because there were no railings..
This means that even if there is a strong wind, you may fall down..
At the end of that rooftop.
Sanghyeolgong was standing in a place where if he took one wrong step, he would fall down a cliff..
“…….”
Even though this man was hit by strong wind all over his body, he did not move as if he had been rooted to the ground, and only the cape he wore to hide his identity was fluttering slightly..
I somehow felt that it suited the strange rooftop atmosphere very well..
The Iron Blood Ball spoke slowly, peeking through the fog where nothing was visible..
“Is the conversation over??”
“yes.”
As I approached Iron Blood Prince, Maxim took a step back..
It is a silent gesture telling the two of you to talk together..
There was a bit of confusion on his face, and although I tried to persuade him while talking to Raizen, it didn't seem to work well..
I got straight to the point..
“Please forgive Ryzen.”
“It will happen.”
“yes?”
My head tilted at the unexpected attitude..
Sanghyeolgong said in his characteristic calm voice..
“Unless you're actually dealing with a devil, taking your life is too much..”
At first glance, the tone seemed reassuring, but maybe it was because the person who brought it up was a Sanghyeolgong..
It sounded a little different to me..
“…It sounds like you have something else in mind..”
“Even so, it is clear that Ryzen disrupted the order of the system. punishment is inevitable.”
“Punishment?”
“I plan to cut off his right arm and educate him thoroughly at his home for three years..”
“her.”
Why does this crazy family love cutting off people's arms so much??
Of course, in my case, I just cut the tendon, and Ryzen declared that he would cut off his arm.…….
After all, dealing with a devil seems to be considered a much more serious crime than selling the family's treasured sword..
‘In addition, three years of education at home?’
The word is education, it is no different from saying you will be locked up in a mansion for 3 years..
Of course, he may be able to live a quiet life at home, but for a guy like Risen, it would be no different from being imprisoned..
Above all, Ryzen is usable..
I don't want him to waste three years either..
“This is excessive..”
I looked at Sanghyeolgong and said.
“It wasn't actually handled, was it? Ryzen is still young. Can you please just skip it to the point where I was young??”
“I am old enough to take care of myself. He must have been taught from a young age not to be associated with religious denominations or the devil. In other words, Risen knowingly used the devil as bait. It was careless, inappropriate, and even poor behavior. If I made a mistake, the church members could have been confused. I deserve to be punished.”
“It is not deserved.”
“…….”
Then Sanghyeolgong's eyes turned to me..
Naturalization seemed to flicker beneath the purple eyes that were slightly darker than mine..
‘As expected, it will be difficult to persuade with words.,’
Then there is nothing we can do..
Although it may be a bit of a waste, I have no choice but to ask for it as compensation for stopping the devil's descent..
This is the moment when I open my mouth.
“-What I mean by not punishing Ryzen here is.”
Iron Blood Ball opened his mouth as if striking a player..
“Iron-blooded ball means that there is a gap in one's existence..”
“…yes?”
“Currently, the denomination is revealing its true nature in earnest. You probably know that better than me. In times like these, the role of the Iron Blood Ball becomes even more important. I must be a deterrent and reign as the cult's most feared entity. But what if I compromise here? If there is even a rumor going around that Ryzen Badniker, who tried to sell the devil, was passed over quietly without any punishment being imposed.?”
“…….”
“It will be said that even iron-blooded craftsmen are soft on blood relatives. Such an appearance is seen as weakness and becomes a loophole. My enemies will no longer be afraid of me, and even the bugs that hesitated to do business with the church out of fear of the Iron Blood Ball will wonder 'just in case'..”
Sanghyeolgong's indifferent eyes turned to me..
“This is unacceptable..”
“…….”
I closed my mouth.
Since I'm usually a very quiet guy, I didn't even know he was thinking about things like this..
Sanghyeolgong's words are never excessive..
Considering the significance this man had to the empire and, above all, to the members of the church, it was a reasonable reason..
many people say.
The Iron Blood Ball is heartless, ruthless, and without blood or tears. It's a good thing his teeth are aimed only at the church.
but…….
For the first time, I felt like I was encountering a man named Delac, not a Sanghyeolgong..
Even I, as a child, felt a feeling I would never have felt in my entire life if I had not had this opportunity..
Others will never notice, and Sangvis would not let it happen..
“…….”
Suddenly, the sight of Iron Blood Ball standing in front of a cliff looked more dangerous than before..
Could it be that Iron Blood Ball did not want to live like this, but had no choice but to live like this?.
“no.”
I said, hiding my somewhat rude thoughts..
“Please follow my strategy. Then, Sanghyeolgong's image will not be damaged at all..”
“Operations?”
“It's just a skit. If you just endure a little embarrassment, everything will end well..”
Originally, I had no intention of revealing the strategy so honestly..
I thought it would be better for the current Sanghyeolgong to do it this way..
“Please explain.”
“First of all, can I call you Ryzen? I have something to ask that guy too..”
Iron Blood Master nodded, and I immediately brought Raizen down the stairs..
And I look at this guy's face and ask.
“Are there any goat beasts among your subordinates??”
“Goat beast? why is that?”
“I need it for the operation.”
After saying that, I explained the plan I had in mind..
Raizen's expression changed moment by moment as he listened to the story, and by the time it ended, he burst into laughter..
“Haha! Well, the trust the company has built up will be at an all-time low..”
“If you don't like it, have an arm cut off like the head of the family said and be imprisoned for three years..”
“That's a bit.”
Raizen shook his head in a cold manner..
For a free-spirited soul like this guy, 3 years of shackles would be no different from telling him to die..
Risen said.
“I approve of your strategy, but unfortunately there are no goat beastmen among my men..”
“okay? Hmm…….”
There were so many beastmen that I thought there would be at least one guy. Looks like things won't work out that easily..
As I was checking the remaining means one by one, Ryzen added something strange..
“Among my men,.”
“huh?”
Risen's gaze turned somewhere..
At the end of it stood the broken sword Maxim..
Maxim scratched his head with an embarrassed face..
“Did you know??”
“There are many talented people among my subordinates. Of course I didn't spread it to anyone..”
“…Is that so?.”
I said, looking at Maxim who smiled bitterly..
“no way?”
“that's right. I am also a beastman.”
It seemed like a sudden twist, but.
Actually it wasn't like that.
In the first place, I thought that the reason why Maksim of the Breaking Blade obediently cooperated with the Iron Blood Duke was because of the beastmen in this Abyss Auction..
I looked at Maxim and asked.
“Excuse me, but are you strong enough??”
“…huh?”
* * *
There wasn't much time left until the auction ended..
After gathering together not only Risen, but also Haro, Zial, and all the beastmen he had suppressed earlier, he explained the outline of the operation..
“Let's go with the concept that the devil being submitted ran amok and escaped. The role of the devil will be played by Maxim here..”
“If you put on some makeup and make up, it will look similar to the devil in the picture... … . If you look closely, you will immediately notice that it looks different.?”
“are you okay. Maxim will appear by collapsing the ceiling. Of course, there will be a lot of dust, so it will be somewhat of a deception..”
“hmm…….”
“now. There is no time, so get to the location quickly..”
“But what will be the starting signal??”
“When Maxim bursts through the stage ceiling, that's the signal..”
“I am announcing the beginning. I understand.”
Maxim nodded and then quietly moved to the ceiling above the stage. I thought he was that big and could move so secretly..
“Huh…….”
Wolf, who was watching this scene, probably Risen's right-hand man, let out a blank voice..
I still felt like I didn't fully understand the situation..
I clapped my hands in front of the beastmen and said,.
“Wake. Your role is the most important. I'm already going to lose my mind if chaos breaks out soon, so I shouldn't be losing my mind already..”
“yes…….”
“I got the plan right.?”
“I understand... This is step one of the plan..”
“The first stage, the [Chaos] stage.?”
For reference, the operation is divided into three stages, in that order: chaos, destruction, and oblivion..
“yes.”
Wolf nodded with an expression of confusion, as if he didn't like my operation name..
“Most importantly, how do you create [a situation of chaos]??”
“Wouldn't it be confusing enough if we showed the devil escaping??”
“hmm. well… … . You can simply accept it as a directing.”
“Production? I guess I did something similar often.?”
Wolf said with a wry smile..
“Because the Master prefers flashy things... … . According to my memory, I also used the effect of breaking the ceiling twice..”
“Huh…….”
Surely Ryzen could have done something similar..
I thought for a moment and said.
“Then let's start agitating by being a windbreaker..”
“It's an instigation.?”
“The devil has escaped... … ! Or, it's dangerous, so run away... … ! Making the same fuss.”
“hmm… All right.”
While Wolf was giving orders to the other prisoners, I looked up at the stage..
Auction nearing its end.
Now the next order is the devil's entry..
Around this time, Maxim should appear.…….
…The moment I had that thought, the ceiling collapsed with a loud crashing sound..
As pieces of wood rained down, panicked voices and short screams intersected at the same time..
Crrrrr…….
And Maxim appeared in the darkness..
‘oh…….’
The quality exceeds expectations..
The makeup team must have put a lot of effort into it, and even in the dust, his eyes were shining and he looked quite evil..
“Ah, the devil……!”
“the devil escaped!”
“Everyone must run away!”
At the same time, loud voices rang out from all directions..
As I just mentioned, they are wind catchers deployed on the spot..
But Wolfe's concerns were correct..
whisper-.
I saw some people who were surprised, some with their butts slightly raised halfway up.…….
I don't see a single person running away in a huff..
The higher the level, the more so it was..
Should I call it the absence of a sense of crisis??
If the devil had really escaped, I wondered why he was so relaxed..
But Maxim, who was playing the devil, couldn't have hurt these guys.…….
‘What should I do??’
I thought about it briefly, and then a good idea occurred to me..
“It's an iron-blooded ball.-!”
As soon as my voice echoed throughout the auction house, there was an immediate reaction..
“What, what??”
“Iron Blood Ball? The Iron Blood Ball has appeared.?!”
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!”
“help me!”
“Rain, get out of the way! i have to live!”
In an instant, chaos unfolded at the auction house..
Without exception, those who looked like they had a heavy butt jumped up and started twisting their bodies in a hurry to get out of the auction house..
I felt vain for a moment when I saw that..
Father, what the hell are you…….
