Swordmaster of the Red Light District

gravestone

23

By the time David felt a sense of incongruity already.

In the cracked air, a brilliantly gleaming sword was thrust in.

ooh-!

Artifact deployed the shield again, but the shield was broken once before and the Overloaded Artifact could not completely block the space sword.

The shield crumbles.

Puddy Duk Duk!

David’s collarbone, exposed defenselessly, comes into contact with the sword and begins to sink.

It was then that David realized why his shield was pierced so easily when he allowed Rey to strike.

“Harcia…!!”

Belated shock and anger covered his face.

David tried to make a move, but he felt deep despair at the second sword that broke through the air and protruded.

👌👌👌👌👌

David’s remaining arm is cut off.

The sword that broke the collarbone and penetrated close to the heart vanished after destroying most of the circle.

And from the moment the incontinence was engraved in the air, Rey was already running towards David.

👌👌👌

Rey picked up the sword that was thrown at David and squeezed the last mana to create a sword.

Rei didn’t know the existence of a wizard.

They were ignorant of their personalities, their physiology, and of the miracles they could perform.

It was overlooked once, and it caused a crisis like today.

Therefore, Ray did not intend to create a variable this time.

“I’m sorry.”

pooh!!

Rey, who had a sword inserted into David’s heart, smiled as he looked into David’s eyes, which was shaking as he couldn’t decide.

“If I were a wizard, I could have pulled out your heart and crafted it.”

👌👌👌👌👌

Rey swung the remaining sword horizontally.

Tuk! Fight!

Unable to resist, David’s head was cut off and rolled to the ground.

David’s body, which had lost his head and staggered, fell to his knees.

The battle is over.

“Whoa, damn it.”

Rey staggered, unable to pull out the sword that was lodged in David’s chest.

The blood that had pooled between the joints leaked out of the torn wound.

ooh-!

The mana contained in David’s circle and the magic that David was trying to manifest lost control and expanded.

the air gets hot

It would be fine if he was in good shape, but in his current state, it was difficult to stop the mana from running out sporadically.

Ray asked just in case.

“Can you control this?”

“…”

Circles shine.

Mana, which was irregularly condensed and heated the air, began to slowly dissipate.

Rey stood still and turned her head toward the nursery.

The auxiliary magic that David had spread out just before the battle evaporated, and Luna’s appearance in the rain was revealed through the curtain.

His blue hair was wet and covered his face, so he couldn’t see his expression.

Luna asked with a trembling voice.

“it’s okay?”

“It’s okay. And thank you, but if something like this happens in the future, I’ll hide under the blanket. I’ll come out with you if I learn some magic later.”

“Is it because of me…?”

“Did I fight this guy? It’s because of you.”

Ray, who was staggering from his seat, slipped down and got up again, whining.

“But you have to choose the word correctly. It’s your fault, but it’s not your fault. The guy with the neck down here is a madman. Don’t worry, I won’t kick you out.”

Using the sword as a staff to balance, Rey lifted her head toward the sky.

It was still pouring rain.

Ray didn’t like the rain, but he was quite willing today.

Small traces will be washed away with the rainwater.

Relying on the sword, Rey approached the nursery school fence with her knees that seemed to be torn apart.

It was a place where there was a cart that was used occasionally.

When I lifted the cloth, I saw a bottle of potion that Jimmy had ripped open.

There was no dramatic effect, but once I put it in my mouth and swallowed it.

Like a potion favored by mercenaries, it contained some anesthetic and narcotic ingredients, which made me feel better.

“Stop going in. Go and wipe the rainwater. I’m going to catch a cold. Today’s business is of course a secret.”

Rey continued to pat Luna’s hair, which was following her, once.

Luna, who stood there for a moment, grabbed Rey’s hand, which was resting on her head.

“…why are you protecting me?”

“Hmm.”

Ray thought for a moment.

It was pretty clear why Rey wanted to protect Luna, but it was a bit difficult to explain it to others.

Rey, who smiled mischievously because of his weak energy, answered.

“You’re doing it to get stronger later.”

“…Hogang?”

“Yeah. If Luna becomes an excellent wizard later, won’t it fall short on me?”

Having an Archmage as an acquaintance would be very reassuring.

Unless Luna’s personality changes like David’s.

“Eat kindly, and be nice to me later.”

“…Yes. I’ll do my best.”

“OK.”

Ray giggled, and instead of dragging the cart to go, he made an ax eye.

“Oh, but Luna. Everything else is fine.”

“…?”

“If you make fun of me for my short stature later, I’ll break my head.”

Even after being reincarnated, 170 hobbits still live.

Rey shook her head, feeling the creaking joints.

Picking up David’s broken neck, he longed for it.

I hope David doesn’t have an artifact of a function I’m not aware of, such as an artifact designed to send a message to someone when the owner’s heart stops.

“I don’t think he was worried about his neck flying off when he came to the nursery.”

After wrapping David’s body with a cloth, he fixed it on the cart.

It was covered with a cloth once more, and straw was placed over it again.

It wouldn’t look like it was loaded with a human corpse.

It’s late at night and it’s raining like a pole, so you’ll hardly see anyone.

Even if they met, a human who could search the wagon after arguing with me at this point had to be a knight even within the counties.

“For now… hide it, let’s think about it.”

I have about a month to spare.

I pulled the cart and started climbing the mountain path.

It didn’t seem like a bad idea at first glance to go deep into the mountain, throw away the corpse, and then let the animals eat it, but David was never ‘missing’.

If it is determined that the high-ranking wizard is missing, several wizards will unconditionally be dispatched to investigate, and they will go around all the counties.

Besides, I was ignorant of magic, so I didn’t know how to get out of the wizard’s sight.

So the disappearance was not dealt with.

A month later, David’s body had to be shown unconditionally.

Whether I confess that I killed or blame others.

“Kenya’s storage was like this.”

Kenya was one of the women who led the Countess’ dark circles in the past, and her hands were quite cruel.

Thanks to this, I was able to get out of the eyes of Count Phillips and put him on the execution table quite easily.

After all, in the past, Kenya has built its own mortuary to kill people and avoid being pursued.

I heard that a lot of effort was put into digging a burrow in the mountains and maintaining an appropriate environment, but the inside of the storage room in Kenya is maintained with constant moisture and low temperature, which naturally slowed the decay of the corpse.

Kenya kept the bodies in storage for months, making it difficult to pinpoint the time of death, and then moved them to other locations to collect alibi and confuse investigations.

“I closed it because Jimmy didn’t use it, but I ended up using it.”

Feeling his mouth dry, he threw David into a storage room in Kenya where the smell of corpses was tainted.

He covered the body with a tarp to prevent the moisture from evaporating and becoming a mummy, and then came out.

It was quite cold when I went into the storage close to freezing with my whole body wet and came out.

stood in place for a while.

Today was a pretty tough day.

I wanted to drink another bottle of potion.

“Everyone is getting addicted like this.”

After shaking his head, he pulled the carriage. There was a place I habitually go to whenever I feel depressed because things are a little twisted like today.

I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to stop by because it’s close to this place.

“Hmm, I’ll need some wine and flowers.”

I’ve been wanting to see my father for a long time.

Ray, who had stolen a drink from the store Jimmy was protecting, headed to the cemetery in the rain again.

As he passed, he picked up a modest flower that was blooming and held it in his hand.

Rey arrived at the cemetery and stood in front of a small tombstone.

Although the etiquette of the Holy Sepulcher is a little different in this world, Rei bowed twice with alcohol in front of the tombstone and bowed her head slightly.

“I don’t know if you’ll be happy, Dad.”

After taking the bottle, Rey poured it around the tombstone in three separate batches.

“I’m the only one who comes here to manage it anyway, so I hope you’ll be happy if you can.”

Ray, who was giggling and wiping away the bottle, felt uncomfortable.

I haven’t been to the tombstone in recent weeks, and the grass on the tombstone was once trimmed.

Ray looked around once.

It was raining at night, so even if there were people, it was not easy to feel popular.

It wasn’t really an important issue. It was good news that there were more guests at my father’s tombstone.

“Gosh.”

Rey sat down with her back on the tombstone and looked up at the sky.

It was very difficult.

The skin was scrambled, the joints smashed, and the dream of being tall was shattered.

I wanted to go to the church right away and wake up sleeping Adele for treatment, but this time it was impossible.

The wounds engraved on Rey’s current body were clearly those of magic.

I couldn’t show this to anyone. It was a pain I had to carry alone.

“I’m not saying this to my father, but it’s a lot harder than I thought to install it just to save the world.”

At the most, I picked one legendary orphan, and the 6th circle wizard turned on the lights and rushed in.

In the future, I want to focus on rare and unique. Looking at the orphan gacha, the normal ratio was too high. It’s like Gae Chang-ryeol’s gacha.

Rey giggled and closed her eyes, breathing heavily.

“I hope things get better in the future. Even if you don’t like it.”

Kim Dok-ja was reincarnated as a baby in the fantasy world instead of the cub.

It was going to go crazy, but I couldn’t deny that my heart was pounding.

The problem is that if I don’t play, this world will perish.

But… do we really need to cling to the salvation of the world? If the world was to perish, it was because of the transcendental cub who didn’t do things right.

It’s not that I feel guilty or responsible.

Anyway, I was a baby now, and it was too early to set a course of action.

Even now I couldn’t see properly.

I’ve heard that newborns take several months to properly open their eyes, but I never expected to experience it firsthand.

“~~~”

“$$$”

Fortunately, the sound was good.

It was an incomprehensible language, but over time, its ability to decipher shined.

Until yesterday, only a few words in the sentences my parents were talking about were interpreted, but now the whole sentence is slowly starting to be interpreted.

I have to say that it feels like someone is dubbing into my ear in a familiar language.

I closed my invisible eyes as I listened to my parents’ conversation. Newborns sleep a lot.

“♡”

Well, f*ck it.

A moan was heard.

The good news is that your parents are happy.

I thought it was a wise move to make a rice cake… to make love next to a newborn baby who couldn’t even open his eyes.

You’re just a newborn baby who doesn’t know what’s going to happen. It was wise to have him by his side no matter what he did.

But what is it that has been heating up your body since broad daylight? Excessively good gold was also a matter to consider.

“~~~%$?”

My parents hugged me and talked about something.

I didn’t really want to know what that meant, but I wasn’t used to turning decryption on and off yet. When it comes to language, the power was activated almost semi-automatically.

The man gasped and said.

How about you, better than your husband?

The woman groaned and answered.

I love you so much.

“?”

Maybe my powers were broken, damn this dubbing is a bit weird.

No, the f*cking dubbing is f*cking weird .
