Episode 46

The local police in Japan have arrived.

We went to the police station and were questioned.

The investigation did not last long and ended quickly.

Because they were students of ‘Elpon’ Academy, the reliability was great.

“Whoa..”

I walked out of the police station and sat down on a nearby bench.

The culprit in this case, the inn owner, is one of the members of ‘Requiem’.

The police saw me from afar and approached me.

“Are you the student who was investigated today? Great job.”

He handed me a coffee and said.

“Thank you. I will drink well.”

“Rather than that, is it true that the innkeeper has no grudge against the ‘Elpon’ academy student?”

“Yes. It’s true. All of us in Class 1-A were meeting the innkeeper for the first time that day.”

“Then why the hell did he try to kill the students by activating the sealed margin? I don’t understand the motive part.”

The policeman stroked his chin and said.

“….”

The local police don’t even know that the owner of the inn is a member of ‘Requiem’.

That’s because the personal information of each member of Requiem is thoroughly veiled.

Their wanted letters only have their initials written on them.

The most important part of the wanted letter, the face photo part, is blank.

And it’s no wonder that they don’t understand the innkeeper’s ‘motive’.

‘Requiem’ informs their members of the special ‘bonding margin’.

When the sealing margin is activated, the inside and outside are completely blocked.

In the sealed margin, monsters will come out and kill the people inside the sealed margin.

Then it replaces the mana of the people it kills with its own demonic energy and absorbs it.

No one knows about Bongmajin’s ability unless he is a member of ‘Requiem’.

That’s because all the people who directly witnessed their ‘bongmajin’ are dead.

For ‘Requiem’, the ‘Elphone’ academy students were probably the best material.

Since each student has a huge amount of mana, if you absorb all of them, you can get a huge amount of magic.

“…Did I hear it wrong?”

“No. Commander. You obviously heard it right.”:

Bang-

The unit commander hit the desk hard.

The iron desk was broken in two in an instant.

Seeing that, the subordinate broke into a cold sweat.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the unit commander so angry to the top of his head.

“Eliwood, who owned the ‘Crystal’ ring, died suddenly?”

“…Yes.”

“To whom did you die?”

“That is currently under investigation, but not yet detailed..”

The unit commander threw the glass cup from his desk toward the wall.

Clang-

Blood flowed from the forehead of the subordinate who was hit by the shards of the glass.

“Do you think that makes sense now?”

“…”

“How much did it cost us to bribe the local police, but we couldn’t get any inside information from them?”

“Yes.. For some reason, the local police were reluctant to hand over information about this incident. It looks like there’s a tycoon behind it.”

“…A big man?”

“Yes. It seems that there are quite a few forces behind this incident.”

Kkaduk-

The unit commander bit his teeth.

For him, the ‘crystal’ ring was absolutely necessary.

A ring with an option that doubles magic recovery.

That ring had a lot of absolute magic power, but it was a necessary ring for himself, who had slow magic recovery.

“…Did you say that the ring he hid in the nearby dungeon disappeared after he died?”

“Yes.”

“…Then the guy wearing that ring must be the prime suspect in this case. Try to find out.”

“Yes. All right.”

Drreuk-

Nam Do-yoon opened the door of a high-end Japanese restaurant nearby and entered.

It’s because Cha Ji-yoon contacted him to see him for a while.

“Welcome. Have you made a reservation?”

“Yes. The reservation name is ‘Cha Ji-yoon’.”

“Ah! You see. You can follow me.”

The employee guided Nam Do-yoon.

She guided Nam Do-yoon to a room in the far corner.

“You can go here.”

“Thank you.”

Namdo Yoon bowed his head and went inside.

Inside, Cha Ji-yoon was waiting for a meal.

“…You are here.”

“Yes.”

Nam Doyoon sat down.

As he sat across from her, he brought Namdo Yoon to her.

Her expression was quite serious, unlike usual.

“Can I ask what you called me for?”

Nam Doyoon said.

“…”

Cha Ji-yoon looked at the glass without saying a word.

Instead of answering, he poured himself a drink.

“…This is really important, so please answer me.”

“….”

“…Depending on your answer, I might have to regard you as an enemy.”

Cha Ji-yoon looked at Nam Do-yoon with a cold expression.

“…Yes.”

“…Didn’t you kill the ‘innkeeper’ today?”

“Yes.”

“…Do you know the identity of the innkeeper?”

“The police don’t know that, so how would I know?”

“…I said that depending on your answer, I could consider you an enemy.”

“….”

Cha Ji-yoon looked at Nam Do-yoon in silence.

And when he didn’t answer, he nodded.

“…It is correct that I clarify first. We investigated the person using our intelligence department. He was a member of ‘Requiem’.”

“….”

“…Didn’t that person know about that?”

Cha Ji-yoon took the alcohol and drank it slowly.

Then he set the glass down.

“… Since he knew that, wasn’t he able to kill him without hesitation?”

“….”

“And since you are aware of the ‘Requiem’s’ unique seal, which only unlocks when you kill the person who activated the seal, you must have been certain that you could overcome this situation only by killing him.”

From noble mtl dot com

“….”

“…How do you know?”

Cha Ji-yoon frowned.

The ‘Samhwa’ group is also actively pursuing it, but ‘Requiem’, a group that is hidden in a veil that does not even know the member’s face

They are targeting the Samhwa Group.

He was even aiming for his father’s life.

As a result of investigation, the secretary was also sent by an organization called ‘Requiem’.

Cha Ji-yoon picked up her phone and saw the text message that had just come.

[‘Samhwa’ Information Department Team Leader Yoon Ji-young – This is the list of ‘Requiem’ members who infiltrated the ‘Samhwa’ group. Also, they used an unusual sealed margin. That margin is… (5 Minutes ago)]

It was the latest information obtained through torture by the head of the intelligence department of the ‘Samhwa’ group.

It was information that a member of ‘Requiem’ who had been tortured 10 minutes ago blew.

They must be eradicated.

However, there is no way to know because it is a group that is so veiled.

Nevertheless, I diligently investigated using the ‘intelligence department’.

The only thing they found out was the fact that the caster had to die to unlock the seal they used, and a few members of the ‘Requiem’, the terminal infiltrated into the ‘Samhwa’ group.

That was the information I barely got 5 minutes ago.

However, that man killed the innkeeper as if he knew in advance the information I got 5 minutes ago.

It’s as if he knows the characteristics of the ‘Requiem’, which can only be unlocked by killing the caster.

If you’re not involved in ‘Requiem’, how on earth do you know that?

“Can I have a drink too?”

Nam Doyoon said.

Cha Ji-yoon poured the drink without a word.

Nam Doyoon looked at the glass.

Um… How should I say it? I played the game before possessing, so I can’t say I knew all of their faces.

“Then, first of all, I’d like to prove that I am not related to ‘Requiem’.”

“…..”

“There are 4 members of ‘Requiem’ that are currently invading the ‘Samhwa’ group: Il Yoo-ra, Minzos, Karin, and Belzos.”

“!!!”

At those words, Cha Ji-yoon’s eyes widened.

Because some of the members he sang were spies from the song ‘Requiem’ that he heard in the ‘Ministry of Information’.

There is no way that information was leaked.

This is because it is a fact that only the head of the intelligence department and Cha Ji-yoon know about.

“If I really have anything to do with ‘Requiem’, then I have no reason to say this, right?”

“……That’s for sure.”

Cha Ji-yoon nodded.

If he really is a person from ‘Requiem’, there is no way he would say that.

However, there is an unanswered question.

“…How do you know? That they are the people of ‘Requiem’.”

The identities of the members of Requiem are hidden in a veil.

But how does that man know that?

That man knows as if it were natural that he finally found out after investigating through the information department of the ‘Samhwa’ group.

“I’ve been chasing you for a long time. I must kill them all.”

Nam Doyoon took a sip of alcohol.

If there is a ‘requiem’, this world will never escape destruction.

“And, my relationship with my parents was completely destroyed by them. It was all because I was lacking.”

I didn’t even leave the room because I got into game pain while playing the game and killing ‘Requiem’.

As I said that, the glass filled with energy without my knowledge.

“…..”

Cha Ji-yoon stared blankly at him.

It was only then that I understood everything.

The reason why he had to hide his power.

He had to hide his power so that ‘Requiem’ would not pay attention to him.

And while hiding his power, he was only looking for an opportunity to destroy the ‘Requiem’ under the surface.

Just to avenge my parents.

Cha Ji-yoon looked blankly at Nam Do-yoon.

What kind of fight is that man fighting alone?

That’s what he said with a frown on his face.

“…Isn’t this really alcohol?”

“…Yes. Of course. Aren’t you underage?”

Cha Ji-yoon smiled.
