Episode 161
“I will never try to find out your identity.”
“I will live my life with the word revenge erased from my mind.”
“Take whatever you need from Derinkuyu. “I will never chase you.”
“I will live as if I were dead. Please just spare my life.”
All the trash in Derinkuyu is mine
I begged.
Take anything.
Please just spare my life.
If I keep doing this, my delicate heart will become weak… … I know how to do it.
“shut up.”
No matter how much I ask, these children cannot be forgiven.
I stood at the entrance to the auction house, adjusting Kunkan’s moral knuckles.
“You guys are trash that shouldn’t be out in the world. Just stay underground forever
“It would be helpful to the world to live buried there.”
“Please…” …
“Have you heard of the Catacombs? Co-underground mo.ji. From now on, this place will not be called Derinkuyu, but the Catacombs.”
Still, I don’t kill everyone right away.
I plan to give it a very small chance.
What if you can break through the collapsed underground cave and come out ‘alive’?
I smile brightly and raise both fists
Raised it.
“If you want to prolong your life even a little longer, it would be helpful to stick a knife in the back of the friends next to you. “They are bad guys who eat up your food, water, and air.”
“Then let’s never meet again.”
As soon as I finished speaking, I started throwing my fists at the stone wall.
thud! thud! thud! thud!
Whoosh!
The entire Derinkuyu rang loudly and
Dust fell upwards.
“Ugh, ugh! “Aaaah!”
Derinkuyu, which boasted a long history, began to collapse.
The inside quickly turned into chaos, and those who were quick to notice had already drawn their swords.
It was a very fleeting scene.
Crumbling!
The stone wall ceiling collapsed, completely cutting off De Rinkuyu from the world.
Inside, people are dying.
A loud noise was heard very faintly.
I shook my hands and shrugged my shoulders.
“… … “Finished cleaning.”
♦ ♦ ♦
“You buried it all? “That’s not like you.”
“What is me?”
“I thought you would forgive me.”
“What is forgiveness? “Out of all those trash, the only one who will be forgiven is ‘Lux.’”
When Strang escapes after robbing the Teutonic safe.
Lux turned the guard’s attention.
Since there was no way to attract the guards’ attention, he slapped the guard’s face and made Kang-su run away.
He risked his life to complete his mission.
I smiled and held out my hand to Lux, who was crouching in the corner of the inn.
“Ah, uh, yes.”
Lux hesitantly took my hand, as if she was still afraid of me.
Because a promise is a promise.
I just as quickly broke Lux’s hand.
“Keuuuuuuuuu!”
Lux screamed, but did not express any particular displeasure.
Although he lost his right hand, his life was saved.
Compared to the price for buying and selling many innocent people, it was a cheap price.
“From now on, live a good life. evildoing
Don’t do it. “If we meet like this again, you’ll know, right?”
“Thank you… …
Lux leaves to find another life, and now all that remains is the end.
“What are those guys planning to do?”
Strang and I turned our attention to the boys and girls who had been kidnapped to Derinkuyu.
Although they seemed to have calmed down a bit, some of them were still shaking as if they were scared.
“Do you have a house?”
Nod.
Although I saved them, they have nothing to do with me.
I have no intention of interfering in their lives, nor do I have any intention of giving them trivial advice.
Instead, I picked up a handful of gold coins and handed them to each child.
“Now go home. And, let me tell you just one thing.”
“••••••yes?”
“Don’t follow strangers. Understand?”
When I smiled brightly, the children bowed their heads.
okay.
Everything seemed to end well.
We collected all the trash, cleaned it up, and rescued those who could be saved.
I found the item I was looking for, and the quest will be completed as soon as I return the piece of wisdom.
If there is one problem remaining
“What about these?”
Dozens of stolen goods that Strang took with him on his way out of Derinkuyu.
And, gold coins still boast a huge amount.
“I should give it back, right?”
“To whom?”
“Yeah… … . To the owners?”
“How do you know who lost what and how do you get it back?”
“Hmm, I see. “Then what?”
“What can I do? This is your loot. I worked hard and achieved it,
“That’s what you have.”
Is it theft if I keep all the money stolen from thieves?
right.
There is no such thing as guilt.
This too was clearly theft, and I have no intention of imposing a standard that is just convenient for me.
So, what should I do with this money?
This is a matter of choice.
“Just write it. No matter how you used it, Derinkuyu
“It will be used for much better things than when it was there.”
“It’s a good thing… …
The worries didn’t last long.
“Ugh!”
Take the Mana Train from the Crossroads to the capital of the Rhedian Kingdom.
In the capital, get a carriage and go back to Rodello.
Rattling! Rattling!
The gold coins and stolen goods are loaded so much that the wheels of the carriage are bent, and the gold is returned properly.
How I use these stolen goods and tons of gold coins.
There is only one, right?
“This is for Jason, this is for Lord Hanson, this is for Lord Bolvar…” … . And this one, I can give it to Ruina. “I’m sure you’ll like it a lot, right?”
“How about this?”
“… … Irene. Let’s give it as a gift.”
gift.
And, donate to the estate.
In the end, if you ask me if I’m using it for myself… … .
right.
Eeeeeee! I don’t know!
So what should I do? Should we just bury all this in the ground?
This time, I’ll just close my eyes and become a shameless pervert.
“Look over there!”
“… … Wow, a lot has changed.”
The entrance to Ardel.
While he was away for the past few months, many things had changed in Ardel.
After the cold winter has passed.
After a bright spring, my hometown is now surrounded by lush greenery.
At the entrance to Ardel.
《Swelling hope to all who visit Ardel》
There was a huge sign erected with a tickling phrase written on it.
There was also a building erected at the entrance that appeared to be a guard post.
The security guard seemed to have been completely reorganized, and there were many soldiers with faces I had never seen before.
“Have you visited Ardel? “There will be a brief inspection.”
“… … Umm. “Me?”
Considering that you don’t know my face as the owner of a small household, I’m probably a migrant who came to Ardel from somewhere else.
I asked, crossing my arms playfully.
“yes. You need to check. “Please check.”
“… … “There is quite a lot of luggage in the carriage. What is it all?”
Instead of answering, I opened the bag of gold coins and also opened the bag containing the stolen goods.
“This is all… …
The checking guard’s eyes widened.
It is clear that you have never seen such an enormous amount of gold coins in your life.
He seemed to be trying to come to his senses.
I shook my head and started writing down various things on the visit list.
Another guard asked me.
“Where are you from? Who are you? If you have an ID, please submit it.”
“Yes, of course.”
I put my hand into my chest to take out my ID card.
It was then.
“Do, master!”
“Hey, Uncle Phil. long time no see?”
“… … “You’re a master?”
Phil, a 10-year sergeant who knew my face, came running towards me.
I said a word to the guards whose thinking circuits were frozen at the word ‘Master’.
“You newbies! This is our Master Ruin! You guys don’t even know Lord Soga’s face! “What is the purpose of interrogation, Mr. Master?”
“Yes, old? oh! Chu, chung! “I’m sorry I didn’t know!”
I said with a playful smile.
“Ahaha, no. Of course you should do it. Doing what is natural as Ardel’s guards
You did it. So please don’t scold me too much.”
“Oh my, you’re kind too. Please come in. But, young master… … . “What is all this?”
I thought for a moment about what to say, then scratched my head and said,
“… … booty?”
“ah!”
Uncle Phil nodded as if he understood, then climbed onto the wagon for me and took the reins.
“Let’s go quickly! “The lord will be very pleased with me.”
“Woohoo, yes.”
In the distance, Ardel began to come into view.
But I wonder if this is the Ardel I knew.
“People… … “That’s a lot?”
“yes. The number of immigrants has increased rapidly recently. They flocked to Ardel regardless of whether it was the capital, the east or the south. Not only our own citizens, but also many other citizens. “Some men came from Espe Lanaja in Oyota with loads of children, and people came from as far away as Te Siran in the Empire.”
I smiled slightly at Uncle Phil’s words.
Oyota’s Esperanaza is Mr. Narmer, the orphan director.
Anna and Cyndia. Even Nadia and Wazner. It looks like everyone arrived safely.
But, what is Tesiran?
“I heard the story. Young Master, you stopped the ogres that attacked Tesiran, right? You are great. 200 citizens of Tesiran came all the way, saying they could risk their lives under a master like this. “Of course the lord accepted it.”
“iced coffee.”
That’s why.
“Over there is the newly built orphanage and gymnasium. “How did you come up with all that thought?”
A large new building south of Ardel.
Orphanage and gymnasium.
Mr. Narmer and the children could be seen in the distance.
“Luiin… … . Oh no! young master!”
“brother!”
Anna, Cyndia!
Even Nadia and Wazner.
“how have you been doing?”
They waved at me happily, and I smiled brightly at them.
Not only that.
“What, you’re Ruin? for a moment. “Is this a dream?”
Jason, who was diligently cleaning the streets of the neighborhood, saw me on top of the carriage and rubbed his eyes.
Once, twice.
Even if you keep rubbing, you can see me,
Eason was startled and ran towards me.
“You bastard! “If you come, you should have at least given me a message that you are coming!”
“… … Hehehe, how have you been? “I guess you achieved the 4 classes you promised?”
“Well, of course… … !”
The carriage ran helplessly and passed the sword training range.
At the training ground, Hanson was training hard, emitting a vivid red aura.
And, Lord Bolvar, who was watching Hanson with satisfied eyes, stepped out at me.
I saw it.
“… … young master?”
“Lu, Ruin… … !”
I gave them a thumbs up.
Hanson guy.
It’s already far beyond 5 stars.
Surely talent is talent.
The carriage soon arrived in front of the manor house where my father was.
“… … Ruin?”
“Oh, brother!”
Father and Ruina.
The two of them were sitting in the yard, and their eyes widened when they saw me suddenly barging in with a huge bag of gold coins.
“How have you been?”
I got off the carriage and hugged Ruina who was running towards me.
“Why did you come now!”
“I’m sorry.”
at that time.
The door to the mansion opened, and a dazzlingly beautiful woman appeared there.
Irene Prius.
She looked at me with a slightly embarrassed face, as if she couldn’t believe it.
I smiled playfully at her.
“I missed you.”
