“Welcome. ”

Tino walks into the underground square and meets Eindelph's group, and his face discolors as he sees their mess. I was thinking of searching for him and a few others who should have arrived already because I didn't have any news.

“You got here first. Is that Commander Tino?”

Eindelph's voice is as dry as a cracked wheat field in drought.

“Yes.”

“I bumped into a Volkaworm in the middle. I lost two knights. ”

I didn't have anything else to say at this time. It is not a place to be comforted or to be told.

“I've created a resting place. This way.”

“Thank you.”

Eindelph and his group follow Tino to the fire at one end of the square. They started a fire with a few lumps of coal they found on the way down to the basement. It was quite cool because it was deep underground, but when I saw a lively flame, I was relieved.

“Well done.”

“Oh, Commander Harun. ”

Eindelph greets him with a greeting after hearing Harun's voice after entering another passageway for some time because he was concerned. I was young in Harun's eyes when he acted with a tone that was different from that of the previous Empress.

“Ares, get me a hot cup of tea. ”

“Yes, commander. ”

Ares, who is the youngest of the group and is more powerless than the others, kills his youngest son. Since I became a journalist, it was an act out of a personality that changed actively because I sought emotional stability.

“What happened? ”

Eindelph's party takes off the tension veil over their bodies and minds with a warm car, and Harun asks indifferently. The unavoidable crowd draws attention from Eindelph's party.

“You met the Volkaworm. What a devil he was. ”

On behalf of Eindelph, I've uncovered the details of Daph's encounter with the Volkaworm. by drawing on the floor the appearance of a Volkaworm.

Eindelph told me about his encounter with the Volkaworm. He sticks out his tongue explaining how his eight outer teeth move and how fast they are.

“It was as if he had put together eight Swordsmen of Advanced Expert skill. Magic resistant enough that the Five Circles' magic attacks would not work. I can't even figure out how to deal with this monster. ”

In Eindelph's grim words, the intense light flashes from Dylan's eyes. He felt a kind of fear in Eindelph's words, presumed to have a similar status to his own.

Who the hell are you? ’

Having explained the Volkaworm to Eindelph's group, Harun asks a few questions to understand the details.

‘I'm worried. I never imagined it would be this big. So you think he's the one who's been eating people who haven't come yet? ’

Even though people didn't bring it up out of their mouths, people already seemed to think that.

“Someone's coming. ”

Tino runs toward the passageway on one side of the square.

“Huh, what about them? ”

It was a trillion sent by the first prince. An Earl Jungran, who is expected to ascend to the Master of the Sword soon, came to the blood-soaked appearance with his three henchmen. They were also attacked by the Volkaworm.

The light of relief shone in their eyes when they saw the people sitting by the fire, and one of the knights was relieved of his strength and had to be supported by Tino.

Only seventy-two people came to the underground square until about a day after they left. They are all skilled swordsmen who can navigate their own worlds. A two-thirds of the day they come down to the basement and are eaten or slaughtered by a monster called the Volkaworm.

Jo came down safely to the underground square only Harun Jo, the two Jo dispatched from the Senate and the High Noble Council, and Jo dispatched from the cloud, one of the teenage mercenaries.

Foreigners who run a lot on electricity were the most affected. Other couples were blended one by one with the best because of their competitive consciousness, but the foreigners' guild had not yet had such talent.

Those who fill their bellies with the dried food they bring down take their ease and rest, but Harun's group turns to look at the direction of the passage. At least I was able to rest a little thanks to my shift in the Cloud Jo.

Harun twists his crown and turns the Mana Flow. Mana Flow was the best way to eliminate body fatigue in a short time.

How long has it been? Harun tries to switch with Cloud Joe as he regenerates.

But there was someone who called him. He was a stranger, but not unusual.

“Commander Harun, look at me. ”

“Harun.”

You don't know the opposing Pokémon. You greet them first. The opposing Pokémon is a middle-aged figure with a sharp maverick. They exhale an unusual prayer.

“I am the Marquis of Masron. Shanin Martyr's owner. ”

I've heard of him. He's one of the five wizards in the empire. There is a rumor that Shanin Martyr used to have a close relationship with the Senate.

“It's an honor to meet you. ”

“So am I. As a mercenary, I've never seen anyone so famous and anonymous as you. ”

I don't know if it's a compliment or a taunt. A dry voice that shows little emotion reminds me of uncomfortable thoughts with a sharp look.

“Survivors want to have a meeting. You should attend.”

He does not wait for Harun's answer, but heads to the fire he smoked separately. Following him, a group of people gathered, who were the best. Of course, there were some people who Harun did not know because he did not attend the meeting or the ceremony.

“Welcome. ”

The welcome was from Count Eindelph and Earl Junkran, who were already faced, and Cloud Mercenaries, who had previously greeted them through the Dakarin Mercenaries.

“This is Harun. I was unable to attend the trip because of the map. ”

After greeting strangers, they also briefly introduced themselves.

“I am Earl Alain. ”

A famous person.I don't know how the Sword Master got here. He was one of the strongest candidates for the Golden Battle, a successor to the Seven Kingdoms and a great sword called the Empire.

“Earl Dennis, commander of the Gorongbos Knights. ”

I don't know who he is. I was not interested in anyone showing off that introducing myself to a mercenary was unpleasant.

After a brief greeting, Harun sits down by the fire and Marquis Masron brings out his business.

“Your nominal status is high, but you are in charge of this punitive force, and I will preside over the meeting. ”

He pauses, as if seeking permission, but does not notice others. It was such a maddening attitude that the eyes of some people, including Eindelph, were distorted, but they did not open their mouths.

“I've made too many sacrifices on my way here. This is due to a large lack of information. It is the fault of the Storm Mercenaries responsible for the information about this place. ”

I can't believe you're talking like that!

He continues to speak before Harun even opens his mouth.

“But those who have been attacked by monsters and turned into prey must reflect on their own incompetence in the afterlife. If I'd been focused on growing my skills, I wouldn't have been the food of monsters at all. ”

Shhh!

Suddenly, a sword is drawn from the sword that was placed next to Eindelph. A razor-sharp glow spreads around you. Earl Jungran also began to bleed. You can feel Mana starting to flow rapidly around him.

“Nothing, of course, corresponds to fools who trusted the power of their masters without some awareness. ”

It was the voice of the Marquis of Masron, who seemed a little shaky.

Yikes!

The sword is once again filled with dark gloves. The rapidly flowing Mana disappears like the spring snow.

“Mercenary Harun! How could you cut our power so low with such vain information? How many times do you have to act so frenzied with the Crown Prince? Do you think you've done your part by sending me a map? How are you going to take on all these victims? ”

This is absurd. Harun cannot understand why he should be beaten like this by the late Masron. If you were a resident here, you'd have to endure it, but not yourself. Suddenly, violent emotions boiled out of nowhere.

“I don't know why I'm responsible. ”

It was a heavy sinking voice. But people could feel intense anger writhing in them. The people sitting here had that kind of power.

“What, what? Go, how dare you... ”

As Harun, the Marquis of Masron's expression seemed to distort his face as if his ego had been corrupted.

"A man without manners needs no decency. ’

Harun's determination to protest was to summon three spirits. Harun's determination to think of a combination to blow away if you move your lips. The crowd winces.

They were all so small, they could feel the powerful flow of Mana. The flow of Mana they sensed was much more powerful than I had ever imagined.

“Who are you to hold me responsible for not even asking the Crown Prince? ”

Harun's eyes turn red, looking up at the Marquis of Masron. The gritty net of flame is headed towards the Marquis of Masron like a pitchfork.

“All of you? How dare you... ”

I didn't think about it at all, or his voice was trembling. No matter how famous the mercenaries are, I didn't expect them to come out so fiercely to themselves, the noble nobleman and owner of the Marathon.

“Is it a crime to negotiate with the Elves? Was it wrong to give your Senate a chance to enter the dungeon? Was it wrong of him to hand over a map he barely made in exchange for the lives of twelve underground members of the conspiracy? ”

I chipped my teeth. These nobles are like the Nobles of reality. Of course, some of them were useful people, but most of them were pressured by their own identities or for ridiculous reasons.

However, the Marquis of Masron's voice rises, assuming Harun's words are a threat.

“How dare a mercenary talk to a nobleman like that? You must think you're the best in the world because you deserve to go to the dungeon to seduce the Elvish people. That's something anyone can do. I will take you seriously under Imperial law. Ino-ohm! Kneel down now! ”

Nine of those who heard of his nobility ran towards the impossible and besieged Harun. Presumably from the Senate.

Harun slowly rises from his seat. A strong wind started to blow around him, and the Masron Marquis and the people sat on the ground were in a fine tremor.

- Nia, get the water night ready.

There were countless drops of water in the wind around Harun's body. Even a seven-circle sorcerer won't be harmed if Water Night explodes in the vicinity.

The punitive force led by this concept is no longer an option. I can't trust others who have no reaction to his last words. Rather give up the dungeon. A colleague who cannot turn his back is more dangerous than an enemy.

“The gale mercenaries will drop this punitive force. I will also give up the dungeon. The Crown Prince is clearly troubled by what he hasn't said. It seems like you are unhappy with this negotiation and others are cooperating, so I'll go out and negotiate with the Elves now. So this time, the erl himself will negotiate. I assure you, the Storm Mercenaries never said they would be responsible for the information of the Volkaworm Punitive Force. The actions of the erlord and his accomplices at the expense of their men are simply incomprehensible and unacceptable. Even the Imperial Highness can't blame me for a sin the prince princes admitted to me. ”

Harun has decided to leave. Even if this punitive force led by the Imperial Intelligence Guild were to capture the Volkaworm, it was clear that he would be punished for his absence.

‘If this is the case, we would rather go apart and catch one more Volkaworm. ’

When I thought about it, I lost more Jung-nami.

“Get out of the way!"

Harun swings his hand like lightning. Wishine, who is already circling the body, swings a sharp wind-sword like a sword.

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

The knights who surrounded him in semicircular circles felt the aura of the transparent Wind Sword flying towards them, and hurriedly bowed or rolled over. Wind Sword, accompanied by strong wind pressure, is preparing to cool their hearts.

“Commander, prepare to climb. I will confront my first prince and first princess directly to find out why we are responsible for the Punitive Force's information. ”

“Yes, commander! ”

Tino and the rest of his crew march off into battle. Their actions were agile and stolen, as if they had been prepared in advance.

A drop of sweat flows from the Marquis of Masron's face as he looks at it. I didn't think he would act this full-blown. His desperate eyes turn to Earl Alain.

‘Damn! I was going to kill Gigi once...' ’

No one here has heard that the Scourge Mercenaries are responsible for the information of the Punitive Force, as the erl has said. Rather, I knew through those who had suffered severe damage that I would not have been able to come here safely if it hadn't been for the map that the storm had sent down here.

Even if Harun were to go up and tell the first prince and the first empress who presides over the dungeons, he would not be able to ignore the fact that he is the Grand Marquis of no more than five empires.

If the only person who can communicate with the Elves leaves this land of tranquility without knowing what will happen in the future, he will be held accountable for any events that may occur later.

“An accurate assessment of the fact that getting involved with the Imperial Information Guild can lead to good work and sin. ”

A small horse protrudes from Eindelph's mouth. You mock the Marquis openly. However, the Marquis of Masron could not have a seizure as usual. Eindelph was a great man who could not be dealt with from the front, even by his magical skills, and behind him was the First Prince.

“Hey, Commander Harun! ”

After several steps, Harun hears a low yet powerful voice and stops walking.

“Everyone's so nervous and wondering about you and the storm, the Marquis of Masron was joking. Don't be so angry. Isn't that right, Marquis? ”

“Well, yes. I was just joking, no, testing because I was curious about what Captain Harun and the storm troopers looked like. Yawn! If we're going to catch the Volkaworms together, we need to find out their personality and skills. ”

His voice trembles with joy and relief.

The two Imperial lords insisted so, Harun couldn't stand it. I don't know if I'm being persecuted as hard as before, but I thought that I really don't know what would happen if I left in this situation.

I don't care if I'm going to fold the game sooner or later, but Tino, Donnes and Dylan could get in real trouble.

Harun turns away with a smile on his face.

“What kind of joke did the erl bring to life? I really thought you were a born collaborator. Well, the Great Sage is not a coward and less deserted by the authority of nobility and status. ”

The Marquis of Masron's face turned blue. Soon, a flame rose from his eyes, but he gripped his teeth. The Marquis, the highest noble of the Empire, is in a situation where one mercenary should suffer such ridicule.

A smile bursts from the square. Many of them were knights and wizards. They also felt disgusted by the oppression of the Marquis of Masron, and felt refreshed and refreshed by Harun's words.

The Marquis of Masron's body trembles without cause. His beard was also trembling. However, the opportunity to speak out against him had already disappeared. You just have to put your anger into it.

“Now that Marquis Masron has succeeded in attempting to change the mood, let's discuss a plan to deal with a monster called the Volkaworm. ”

Earl Alain has taken his place naturally. Marquis Alain's sense of competitiveness makes him proud, but he can't change his mind now.

Because of him! ’

The sharp eyes of the mason darken my life. However, he soon turned his eyes to Harun's fierce melting eyes. The horrific beast and the vile life that he could not face shook his heart.

You little mercenary! ’

Masron changed his inner teeth, but now he can't express his feelings. He suffered an unbearable embarrassment, but he wanted to refuse to face Harun's harsh gaze.

An attempt was made to dispose of the Volkaworm in the underground plaza first. In the subway suited for his fuselage, it was decided that not only was the collaborator difficult, but there was no way to stop his aggressive assault.

However, the Volkaworm never appeared in the underground plaza. He seemed to know well that he was disadvantaged in a large area as well.

After two days of ambush, the survivors are now divided into four groups to hunt him down. Harun was unable to facilitate the clever speech of the late Marquis Masron. But my heart was at ease.

‘No longer is the leader without nutrition. ’

Harun's party is part of the Eindelph Group.

Tino and Harun have different senses on their backs. Eindelph Jo catches up with the Volkaworm several times, but never lets him. He also seemed reluctant to allow humans to succeed.

After three days, there was an accident. All but four of the Zoes led by Masron were destroyed. Furthermore, only five of the Jo led by Earl Jungran suffered serious damage.

With the exception of those who were with Harun, the estramorwn are now completely destroyed. It's because the guilt is falling in the first place and no one has thought to protect them.

“Damn it! It wasn't one of them! ”

Correct. According to the Marquis of Masron, there are several Volkaworms living in the valley below the Plain of Silence. They're as intelligent as humans, so they even collaborated against Earl Jungran Joe to see if they were communicating.

“I only have a quarter left. ”

Earl Alain's words are heavy. Unlike Harun Jo, the others thought it was easy to deal with the Volkaworm and prepared only a week's worth of food. It's a shame to go to the ground for supplies when the damage is so great.

“Let's take care of him. Captain Harun, lure him away. ”

They knew how dangerous it was, but they were asking for it.

“I saw how agile Captain Harun was. None of us can move faster than a commander. If we can lure him in properly, we'll kill him in the face of war. Please.”

Harun doesn't answer. He also knew how fast he was going. I've heard that he moves at an incredible speed in heavy bodily organs, either through the underground passages or through the mouths of those who face him.

“What are you doing? Isn't the sword of the Empire ordering you? You're not going to dare deny what you've decided at the Four-Man Council? The Four-Man Conference is an instrument representing all the forces gathered underground. ”

At this point, Marquis Masran revealed his insides with a bitter smile.

“It's the only way to catch him. The name of the storm has to be paid. We should be thankful we got mercenaries into this punitive force. It's an honor to have you on an important mission. ”

“I refuse to do such an honor. ”

The words distorted Masron's face. A humble mercenary rises a thousand dollars to disrespect the late lord himself.

“There are conditions instead. ”

“What?”

Harun readily listens to his words, and the late Prince Alain glances back and asks.

“We can find him, but we can't lure him. But if the Marquis of Masron accompanies me to provoke him, he will have a better chance of success. Only those who have the ability to attack with magic and provoke and entice him will be the mastermind here. who is sorrowful to be the first in the empire by magic. ”

At that moment, the Marquis of Masron's face turned yellow. I didn't think Harun would let himself in.

“No way! I'm a ranged warlock. Not as fast as you. ”

“Well, that's a good thing. If you use the Heist magic in succession with your Marquis skills, you'll be able to move faster than anyone else here. ”

Eindelph votes in and out.

“I agree. Although nominal, if Earl Masron, who is in charge of this punitive force, goes out on his own, everyone in the Empire will praise his courage. The wizards who look down on the Imperial Court will also be honored by their allegiance to the Empire and the Imperial Court, following the late Masron. ”

Earl Jungran also voted in favor. With two out of four in favor, there is no way out. The Marquis of Masron's face turns pale, already confronted him once and confirmed that even his magic can't do any harm.

“Then let's make that decision. ”

Earl Alain speaks, and the Marquis of Masron's heart sinks. Instead of being a combat wizard and building magical skills as a horse tower for decades, he asked me to find a place to die by myself.

“Yes, you! What's your beef with me that's making you fall on me? ”

The baron glances at Harun, looking at the three people who had already left to give him no more room.

“Did the erl take me in because of a grudge against me? ”

“Well, well……. ”

“I never let anyone hurt me or harm me because I didn't learn how to be a knight. Whoever the target is. ”

This is not true. But that's how it's gonna be now. I will no longer tolerate the pity of helpless weaklings in reality or in games.

Harun throws a young gaze at the Marquis of Masron, who can no longer speak with a weary face.

“The erl must have dealt with people who were too gentle. You don't even seem to know the usual truth that you might get shot in the back of the head when you're marking an enemy with that kind of knowledge. I'm a worthless mercenary, but the erl must have had a lot of grudges to climb to that rank... ”

Masron's heart sank.

‘I haven't been out of the tower in years! ’

I can't even see people anymore. In the past, I used to look at myself like a ghost and act like I was threatening him, but I didn't really know if he was getting old or really feeling down.

I know who the Crown Prince and the First Princess are. He also taught them magic. They are more resourceful and brilliant than any of the noble disciples he has seen. Why didn't they think that they could not have complimented a simple mercenary who could be crushed simply by title or nobility?

He's coming for me! ’

Just as he does, he has no hesitation to show his teeth and target him. I would never have done something like this before. Isn't it his specialty, as well as his political wizards and nobles, to smile in front of him and defeat him with someone else's sword behind him?

‘Phew. Last time I saw spiritual flux, he was a tough guy to fight head-on. I showed my teeth too early. ’

He is familiar with living with the enemy, but Harun's ability is unknown at all, so the late Masron Judge was complicated. What is certain is that he is an ignorant man who does not respect the Marquis at all, but his hidden abilities are unknown.
