I Became a Soul Eater

Of course, I was very involved in the establishment and operation of Blue Moon. Usually, the hardest thing about maintaining an assassination team is that people with good skills don’t become assassins, and keeping secrets.

Vampires, who are natural assassins in terms of good skills, are not a problem, and I helped with secrecy.

There are three main things that assassins find it difficult to keep secrets. First, an assassin who failed to assassinate is caught and blows away the secret, second, a traitor, and third, getting a request and uncovering the headquarters.

The first and second of them rarely happen due to the nature of the vampire race, and I decided to solve the third.

There is nothing difficult. All you have to do is lend a few alter egos to the place where you receive the request. After the alter ego receives the request and destroys the evidence, it delivers the contents to Eltis.

At first, rumors about the Blue Moon were entrusted to the mercenaries. The mercenaries are also active throughout the entire continent, with their headquarters in the Akasha estate. I handed them only fragmentary information and asked them to spread rumors.

Originally, mercenaries were people who would do anything for money. What did someone in the neighborhood do? It is a very common thing to gossip about the same thing.

At first, there were only rumors, and everyone was concerned about it, but a few assassination requests succeeded very easily. And always left a mark with a blue moon drawn on the assassination site.

It was in an instant that the name of the blue moon began to be known. The first few requests were all for nobles.

Those who hold grudge against the evil lord are overflowing in the world. The sword was given to the common people who did not have the strength to resist.

In the first place, a little blood was needed, but the vampires who were not obsessed with money accepted the request with a very small amount.

When the lords died in succession, there was an uproar in the center of each country. This caused a big wave in the existing aristocratic society.

An investigation team was dispatched, but to no avail. In fact, in some countries, the central knights moved without much meaning.

But that didn’t happen in the Aether Empire. I didn’t even have to use my hands.

William, who had lived as a commoner for a long time, basically had a considerable dislike for the vicious nobles, and rather welcomed this situation. It began to be used as a means of reforming aristocratic society. Of course, that won’t be easy. It will be a great achievement that will be accomplished throughout William’s lifetime.

Unlike the existing Assassins, the Blue Moon began to be accepted as a kind of faith by the common people. However, it is not like drawing a picture of the moon and bowing.

Somewhere vague, but there was a part similar to faith that there was an existence that would listen to their injustice and take revenge.

While Eltis was contemplating the establishment of the Blue Moon, I took Antariel, who was repeatedly changing his eyes in the cave, by force and took him to Ben Bezalel, who was burning his body and mind in a laboratory in the New World.

“What are you doing!”

When I took Antariel and teleported back to the lab without permission, Antariel got angry.

However, as soon as he looked around the lab, his eyes widened as he had just been replaced.

“This place?”

A researcher on par with Antariel. He knew what this place was doing just by looking at the research equipment lined up.

Just then, Ben Bezalel, who had heard the commotion on the other side of the lab, appeared.

“Oh oh! What is that being?”

Ben Bezalel was not at all afraid when he saw Antariel’s appearance that could scare anyone, but instead approached with his eyes shining.

“I don’t know if you’ve heard of Antariel Drognan. This person is also an expert in this field.”

I’m not a person anymore, but that’s how I introduced myself anyway.

“Antariel Drognan? Is that the Drognan Lord I know?”

“Who are you then?”

“I am Ben Bezalel.”

“Ben Bezalel, is that the same person I met at the Kingdom Conference long ago?”

“Right! I am that Ben Bezalel.”

What did you two know? Since the two of them were doing similar research, it is possible that they might have come into contact someday.

As soon as the two met, there was an uproar. It is said that about 50 years ago, the two met at the Kingdom Conference and met in harmony. At that time, everyone was laughing at the research of the two people, so the two had no choice but to get along.

However, after that, as they conducted their own research, the news broke off at some point. This is understandable since both of them were human beings who studied in remote places where no one came.

Anyway, there was no sign of the end of the conversation between the two, so I cut off and went in.

“The reason I brought Antariel here is because I have something to investigate, but these two are the most experts.”

I took out the guts, bones, and some of the scales from the grass fish and showed it to them.

From noble mtl dot com.

“This is the intestines of a fish.”

Ben Bezalel guessed its identity as soon as he saw it. Or should I look at the insides and guess? It just had fins or something.

“Right. It’s probably the first species discovered in this world, and maybe the last.”

“Anyway, is it worth examining just the intestines of a fish at first glance?”

“If it was just a fish, I wouldn’t be able to ask for an investigation. This is a fish that has the ability to move between dimensions.”

Their eyes lit up at my explanation. This was especially true of Antariel.

“Let me study this. But where is the rest?”

I couldn’t say that I ate it deliciously, so I roughly explained that it was lost in the course of the battle.

“Leave this to the two of us.”

Ben Bezarel steps in. I brought Antariel with that in mind from the beginning.

“Then I believe you two will take care of yourself.”

The two of them, not paying attention to me, began cutting the fish’s intestines around to preserve them.

Next was the Dwarven Elder. After easily winning 3 wins with a 3-out-of-5 betting chess, I entrusted the scales of the grass fish to the screaming elder.

There are many experts in the territory, so this is useful. In the future, I thought that more experts in each field should be gathered.

While various tasks were being carried out for a long time, Western witches abandoned the village where they originally lived and started preparing for migration.

This is what was originally planned. It was predicted that Melania would have to move the village while she was alive. But I didn’t foretell where to move.

I went to visit Nivea, now a great witch. If you have nowhere to go, it is not difficult to give or give up part of the Akasha estate.

“welcome. saint”

Very few people are not surprised to see me suddenly appearing nearby. Earl Ctolari, who had been training for over 100 years, had nothing to do with ordinary people. But Nivea seems to be one of them.

“I came to see them preparing to move.”

“I see. No need to worry. We are strong enough now.”

It’s a problem when you’re weak, but it can be a problem when you’re strong. No, to be precise, problems arise because they are not strong enough.

If the Witches of the West had powers equal to Akasha’s territory, no one would be able to touch them, so there wouldn’t be a problem, but it’s a problem because they’re moderately strong.

“I know what is strong. It should be able to deal with quite a few dukedoms. But that’s not enough. Well, anyway, that’s not what I’m trying to say. If you don’t have a good place to go, come to the Akasha estate. give me a nice place”

Nivea looked a little worried and then shook her head.

“It’s such a sweet offer, but we hope we can stand up for ourselves.”

“Why do you want to go the hard way on purpose?”

“It will be difficult. However, I think that you can see a better ending when you reach the end of the road only when you have strength and sacrifice.”

I guess I know roughly what you mean. But did Melania know about Nivea’s tendency? You probably knew. because he was a wise man

“I made an appointment with Melania. It was a promise to watch over you, Nivea.”

“thank you.”

Nivea smiled broadly. My heart races. It is certain that this child also has succubi blood mixed in.

“Find me whenever you feel like it”

“Thank you, but I hope you don’t even make that offer. It weakens my will.”

I guess this is my mistake. no it’s a mistake I think I was looking at Nivea too young.

“sorry. apologize”

“are you okay. It’s not that I don’t understand the Holy Son’s thoughts.”

She was already the head of a great organization. Rather than that, it’s a little burdensome to keep seeing that smile. Maybe his blood is thicker than Lily’s.

“Now we don’t have Melania. There is no way to find witches who will be born somewhere. So I think we have to go out into the world and settle down. so they can come to us. If we go to the Holy Son’s estate and settle down, it will be comfortable right now, but not many children will come to visit us.”

That was the expected part. Still, if you want to make a name for yourself in a short period of time, you will have to take a lot of risks.

“So where are you going?”

“I’m thinking of going to the place where the Neos kingdom used to be.”

It seems that he intends to go to the place where the civil war is still in full swing and make a contribution. It’s quick and simple.

“Maybe notorious”

Inevitably, many people must be killed in order to participate in the war and make a contribution.

“Isn’t the notoriety of witches enough now? I will have to accept that part.”

Nivea smiled bitterly. That’s it. The perception of witches was at a level that couldn’t get any worse. If you look at it that way, it’s a good choice.

“Let me cheer you on”

“But if it gets really difficult, then I might ask the Holy Son for help. At that time, ask for the witches.”

“okay”

He said he was asking for witches. That would be referring to when he died in the whirlpool of war. It’s hard to refuse such a request. This is the land I was thinking of giving away anyway. There is nothing difficult.

The witches of the west were in no hurry. The migration of villages began very slowly and cautiously.

At that time, William sent a summons calling me again from the ecliptic. I knew why I was calling this time. This case is an issue that has been around for quite some time. However, even in the Aether Empire, William was putting off various incidents as much as possible. Now, that too seemed to have reached its limit.

I flew straight to the ecliptic and met William.

“If you’re the count, you know why I called you, right?”

“That’s right. Is it war?”

William sighed and nodded. William had very negative thoughts about the war.

Because he worked as a mercenary, he knew what a battle was like, but he also had the idea that when a war breaks out, it is the people who suffer the damage.

“I tried my best not to, but the opinion of the main radio is strong. In fact, if you think about the interests of the Ether Empire, that’s right.”

I nodded too. Maybe it’s a war that should have happened right away. Rather, the delay may have increased the damage.

The target of the war is the remnants of the Neos Kingdom in the past, which the Witches of the West are trying to enter.

The wars fought by the first 13 factions were now reduced to seven. If the Aether Empire had jumped in while the melee was taking place, it could have swallowed them all at once and swallowed up all the territories of the Neos Kingdom.

Of course, if that was the case, neighboring countries would have participated in the war or severely checked the war, so the outcome could not have been guaranteed.

“There is no problem with the power of this empire.”

That’s right. The Aether Empire is the most powerful nation in the East and West continents.

“But you’re saying that cause is a problem, right?”

A justification is definitely needed to prevent neighboring countries from participating in the war or being checked. If such a situation came, the damage to the Aether Empire would increase.

“It looks like that justification is in our territory, right?”

A strange light appeared in Emperor William’s eyes.
