Chapter 14
Episode 14
“First, let’s exclude space. Because there are a lot of people watching. “I’d like to talk.”
[Are you ordering me now? I guess you didn’t hear me. The carnival has now begun! The surrogate clan has the audience’s right to life and death…]
“So you’re going to kill me?”
[…What?]
“If your life isn’t worth it, do it. “If you want to feel the pain of having your limbs torn apart by a snake.”
Gyu Ryu frowned at Namgung’s words.
“And don’t lower your voice.”
“…yes.”
Hua Aak — !!!
At that moment, people froze as if time had stopped.
In addition, even the flames rising from the broken car were stuffed into the space as if they had been photographed.
“Haha, I also have a thing for respect, so please understand. “I never thought we would meet here again like this.”
Gyu-ryu bowed his head to Namgung as if he had never done that before.
If the proxy clan was the messenger spreading the message of the status, then the Revelator was truly like the incarnation of the status.
It was impossible for even Gyu-ryu, who killed humans without mercy, to rebel against Namgung.
‘Ugh. After all, such a monster is under my jurisdiction. It’s really going to be a thorny road ahead.’
“What are you thinking like that?”
“Ahahaha, it’s because I’m glad to see you. So, what did you call me for?”
At Namgung’s words, Gyu Ryu bowed his head.
“Start with the bundle.”
“The Revelator speaks. Is there any truth to it?”
For some reason, Gyu-ryu immediately opened the window as if he had been waiting.
“The list has changed.”
“Before that, they were special weapons for revelers. The first door has just opened. “I couldn’t buy it anyway because the price was high, so I adjusted the level of difficulty.”
Certainly, as he said, the items contained in the yaksha bundle, from food that could be exchanged for 1 head to weapons, were worth about 10 heads at most.
Numbering. doesn’t exist.
Name: Rusted Dagger.
Grade: Normal (best)
▶ A dagger used by pirates long ago.
▶ It does not rust easily and is not easily cut.
▶ It can be used as a weapon in a hurry.
▶ Price: 3 heads
Cheolkeng-
Namgung took out a dagger from the bag.
As described, the sword had turned yellow and looked like it might break at any moment.
“How many can I buy?”
“As much as you want. Unrated weapons can be purchased in any quantity. “It’s a generous service for the audience.”
“It’s noisy. Then, 50 bags first.”
“…I don’t think you can take it with you.”
“There is this.”
Namgung said to Gyu-ryu, tapping the belt he was wearing around his waist.
“But why are these miscellaneous items…?”
“I don’t know anything up to that point. Is it possible to do exchange transactions as well? “I want to open the Naga clan’s safe.”
Eight representative clans that serve eight Aspects.
One of them, the Naga clan, was the surrogate clan of the Mother of the Breeze, followed by Saint Eira.
And the safe was where the Naga clan’s goods, such as the Yaksha bundle, were stored.
“Do you even know about the exchange deal? Of course, but… if you use something like that from the beginning, they will notice. “The identity of Namgoong.”
Even though it was a space with only the two of them, Gyu-ryu seemed cautious for fear of discovering Namgung’s return.
“doesn’t care. Because you can connect it. Tell these guys this. “A person whose leg was cut off by a goblin’s sword is looking for something that can provide first aid.”
“Hmm… To treat a severed body, you would need to use an emergency kit that is at least 1,000 heads long. “No one can afford that in the current situation.”
“Other than that, if you just want to stick it on, you can also use the slime from swamp jellyfish.”
“ah…!!”
In response to Namgung’s words, Gyu-ryu slapped his forehead and nodded.
“I see. The mucus of swamp jellyfish has strong adhesive properties. “It will be enough to attach human limbs.”
“They won’t be suspicious if you tell them that you told the injured person. “The injured person is the son, and the requester is the father.”
And Namgung stretched out his hand.
Where his finger pointed, a father was seen struggling to get his unconscious son out of the overturned car.
“…I’m not such a nice guy.”
“The price is some of my father’s organs.”
“Aha hehe. Then I guess I’ll have to use liver or kidneys. My preference is liver, but my clan actually prefers kidney beans…”
“You can take care of that.”
Namgung cut off Gyu-ryu’s words as if he disliked his words.
Namgung was once again reminded of the cannibalistic nature of the yaksha as he saw the creature’s mouth full of saliva just by imagining it.
“great. “Is that all you need?”
Namgung nodded to Gyu-ryu’s question.
“It will take a while. The number of heads for alternating current is 100 heads.”
“Then in the meantime, I’m looking at the bundle.”
When Namgung raised his hand, small coins appeared in his palm.
“Kkkeul… Is there a question? You can watch as much as you want. However, this does not necessarily require excluding space.”
“The bundle is not yours, but your brother’s.”
“…yes?”
“The first rank is Hyeonryu (玄謬). From what I remember, it was in charge of the Jongno area, right? “I can unpack a bundle that is one level higher than yours.”
At that moment, Gyu-ryu’s face crumpled.
“Ah… fuck. “Of all the yaksha clans, why is it that one?”
“Did I hear wrong? Or have you forgotten your current position? “What feet?”
“No… that’s not it. I am not hostile to Namgung. To be honest, I am much more comfortable than the other proxy clans.”
When Namgung asked coldly, Gyu-ryu immediately stuck out his tail.
“so? The Yaksha clan all follow the masters of the seven serpents. “I don’t necessarily have to deal with only you.”
Gyu-ryu couldn’t refute Namgung’s words, so he just ate his food.
“I am indeed. Is this why you said to exclude space?”
Gulp – Gulp – Gulp –
He drank the bottle of liquor in his hand, not knowing where it came from, before he knew it.
“Would you like to eat it?”
“it’s okay. “Yaksha’s alcohol smells terrible.”
“Have you tried it?”
“You gave it to me.”
“Wow… I did everything. Haha, what was I really doing in my past life? Yaksa gives alcohol to humans. “If the chief finds out, he will die.”
“You just tried to give it to me.”
“I just scooped it up.”
Gyu-Ryu flopped down on the floor.
“And now it’s clear. If I did something like that to you, there’s no way you wouldn’t know. Be honest. “You already knew about my relationship with Hyun-ryu, so you deliberately decided to look at his bundle, right?”
Namgung chuckled at his words.
“that’s right.”
“Anyway, he’s a terrible person. “What good do you think I should obediently send Namgung to that guy?”
Hyeonryu, the first rank of the Yasha clan.
As I said a moment ago, he was Gyu-ryu’s younger brother.
‘And he’s also a rival.’
As you can see from the hierarchy, Gyu-ryu is in a fairly high position, but ultimately lags behind his younger brother, Hyun-ryu.
‘Each member of the proxy clan has their own area.’
And they will receive a special reward if they are the survivor who survives the longest in the area under their jurisdiction.
‘It’s most likely the chief’s seat.’
That was the reason why Gyu-ryu did not want Nam-gung to go to Hyeon-ryu, and at the same time, it was his weakness.
The Revelator was the strongest candidate.
To casually inform a rival of such a person would be like digging one’s own grave.
“You knew that I would roll my eyes when I heard Hyeon-ryu’s name, so you provoked me, right? “I know it’s not for the purpose of making a deal with him, but as a ploy to make me hang on even more.”
Gyu-ryu shrugged his shoulders and said, as if he had lost.
“If it’s anything, I’ll get it for you. At best, it’s a bundle that’s one level higher. “Nothing really special.”
“Even if there is nothing special, there are more types than your bundle. “It is currently the highest rank among the yakshas.”
He twitched his lips and spoke to Namgung.
“Mr. If you want anything, even if it means emptying out Chief Kajitgeo’s bag, I’ll get it for you, so just tell me. Instead, don’t even look at Hyun-ryu’s face!!”
thud-!!
As if he had made up his mind, Gyu-ryu slammed the bottle on the floor with all his might and shouted.
“Then give me the skill book in the chieftain’s bundle.”
“…Which one?”
“Colorless energy sword.”
Cough –
Gyu-ryu cleared his throat without realizing it.
“Or, a ghost skin that can be used for yaksha techniques would be fine. It was meant to instantly increase physical ability, right? “It will be quite useful at the next Hell Gate.”
“They’re all unique items, aren’t they? They’re all the chief’s treasures. “If I brought something like that, my head would be blown off.”
The things being spit out one by one are unbearable.
Gyu-ryu spoke in a tearful voice as if he didn’t know that Namgung even knew about the clan’s Noble Phantasm.
“I can’t buy it anyway because I don’t have enough heads.”
“Ah, are you kidding me!”
Although he was angry, Gyu-ryu let out a sigh of relief and shouted at his answer.
“Now the first gate of hell has just opened. I’m not asking you to even open the chieftain’s bundle. Instead, you can show it to me when you sit in the chief’s chair.”
“…yes? Do I take the position of chieftain?”
At that moment, Gyu Ryu grinned.
“Hey, what you mean is that you will let me ascend to the position of chief, right? also! I believed it. Even if other guys make useless suggestions, they tell me everything. “I’ll give you better conditions than those guys!”
He said, pounding his chest with his fist as if he was waiting.
“So open it.”
“…What?”
“Yaksha’s heart bag. Only one person. “A pocket that can only be seen by Yasha’s contractors.”
“Now wait!! that…!! It’s literally like showing my heart. “If Namgung dies, I will die too.”
“Do you think I’m going to die?”
Namgung held Gyu Ryu’s shoulder tightly.
“I’m not dying. never.”
Gulp –
Gyu Ryu swallowed dry saliva without realizing it.
“I won’t force you. But sometimes you have to gamble to win something.”
“Ha ha ha… Do you mean the position of chieftain?”
“no. “More than that.”
“…yes?”
“Are you going to be satisfied with just being the head of your clan?”
“What is that….”
“Including you Yasha, the Giants, Nagas, Fairies, and the rest of the proxy clans are also competing for the position of head of the clan.”
Gyu-ryu nodded.
“What if the competition within the clan ends? “What next?”
Creepy –
At that moment, Gyu Ryu was able to immediately understand what Namgung wanted to say.
“I will make you the king of strange forms.”
His body trembled.
