The Man Who Plays the Waves, Corinne Locke (1)

“It’s fun. Try more.”

When Marie, who was watching Chui from behind Corinne, opened her mouth, Allen’s brow furrowed.

“Are you the vice-captain? You’re still a student, so you don’t have a good feeling about it, but I made a very reasonable proposal, rather close to a gift.”

“Huh…! I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to laugh at you.”

There was no malice in Marie’s words. She has pure doubts.

“But 2,000 gold coins is money that can’t buy even a small commercial building…”

“what?”

“Still, it takes 20,000 copies to go somewhere and buy a potato field, right?”

“Haha… You’re still a young student, so you have good spirits. No, at this point, do you have no sense of reality? How many things can you do with 2,000 gold coins…”

“Duk-gu said he needed more money because he didn’t have enough money…”

“Wh-what?!”

2,000 gold? That was one month’s allowance.

20,000 gold? Cheaper than Hresbelg.

To the eldest daughter of Dunarev, who has amassed wealth that can’t be measured, no, common sense, money is like a game score scoreboard.

Oh, how many points I earned this month! It will be this feeling.

“Anyway, we have no intention of selling Tio.”

“Such cheeky…! Guys, do you know who my father is? He’s the top tier of the Gold Hand!”

“Uh…why are you angry?”

Marie turned Allen’s insides upside down, as if she didn’t understand.

Look at that bright innocence. The innocence of trampling on the other person without any malice.

“Heh, good. Is that a joke for young children?”

Allen knew this type well.

Did you know that seagulls are just beach chickens?

Young people who can’t overcome their youthful spirit and blood and try to pretend to be cool despite the huge profits.

These seeds are the type of people who quickly become servile and open their hands when presented with a larger and overwhelming amount.

“Hehe, good. Seeing that youth, I’ll double the price. 4,000 gold coins!”

“That’s 4,000 gold coins.”

“As expected, he is the second son of the top of Gold Hand. The scale of spending money is different!”

4,000 gold coins. 4 billion. With this amount of money, you could build a decent commercial building in the center of Wangdu.

But Allen was not worth the cost. He saw the expected profit from plundering the Magic Tower as at least 10,000 gold coins.

But that’s the expected profit that is possible when the Guardians, the size of Allen, hires hundreds of additional mercenaries.

Quite a few Guardians wouldn’t even be able to follow it.

“Uh… 4,000?”

yes it will turn out that way Allen grinned at Marie, who was taken aback. Eventually it becomes like this. He must have never imagined that he would call for a double in a thousand-unit offer. What is the poor imagination of the common people?

“If you raised 2,000 to 4,000, you just changed one number in front. What does that mean…?”

“what?”

For a moment, Allen did not understand what Marie meant. Did you just change the number in front? Can’t even do arithmetic!

What the hell is that face that says you don’t know how big the jump from 2,000 to 4,000 is!

“Six thousand chapters…”

“???”

“Chi, seven thousand chapters…!”

“Whoaam~”

“Eight thousand…!”

“He… why don’t you ask someone else?”

“Yes! We, the Modern Magic Research Society, are thinking of handing over Tio for 8,000 sheets!”

“What are you talking about! Buy Tio from our Northern Guardians!”

“shut up···!”

Allen Goldhand, the second son of the top of Gold Hand. From the time he was born to the present, he has never had his pride crumpled.

From a young age, he received hundreds of gold coins as pocket money, worked as servants and maids in a luxurious private mansion, and took lessons from a famous knight when he had a talent as a knight.

That his ego would be trampled on by a mediocre academy student?

I must have Tio of these kids. Allen stubbornly pushed beyond the budget allowed.

“100 Platinum Coins!”

“Huh!”

“Unbelievable···!’

“A hundred platinum coins? Isn’t that the budget of a fairly small city for a year!”

A cost comparable to ten thousand gold coins! Allen gazed triumphantly at Corinne and Marie.

Did you know that seagulls are just beach chickens?

Yes, if you suggested this much, I’ll get it right away, Mr. Allen! and lie down–

“huh?”

The girl’s facial expression was still maintaining the clear view index. Even though the guardians in the auditorium are freaking out and making a fuss.

Hey. do you know that snakes are bald?

Not even a single drop of water ripples in the beauty of this girl.

“You, you…”

Who are you? How can you remain calm even with ten thousand gold coins in front of you? How? What have I missed!

While staring at Marie, Allen suddenly saw a necklace hanging from the hem of his robe.

A red diamond necklace that reveals its presence between the white skin of the neckline and the voluptuous breastbone.

Even the leash was made up of dozens of small red diamonds, which ended with a large 69-carat red diamond…

‘That’s it! The ‘King of Jewels’ from the royal auction hosted by the royal family?!

It was a tremendous jewel necklace that was featured on the front page of the Kingdom Daily and Continental Weekly. At the time, the final bid price was 140,000 gold, a legendary jewel that recorded the highest auction price ever!

‘I’ve heard of it! The person who bought the necklace was Mard Dunarev of the Duke of Dunarev in the south… I’m sure he bought it as a birthday present for his eldest daughter…’

Wait, the age of the eldest daughter is just like the girl in front of me…

“Huh…! Eh, Marie Dunaref?!”

“Huh? Do you know me?”

Allen’s teeth clashing against Marie’s affirmation and he can’t control the cold sweat flowing down his face.

Information is controlled because Marie is a native of the south and has awakened as a vampire. It’s not strange that I don’t know…

The opponent is Southern Untouchable. No, it’s like the untouchables of the kingdom!

“Poetry, excuse me…”

From noble mtl dot com

Allen couldn’t control his trembling voice. Now he would know.

That the opponent in front of me is the heiress of a super conglomerate who can bankrupt the top of the Gold Hand with a single gesture.

“I-I’m over…”

“Hmm? Are you okay over there? I’m sweating cold.”

“Oh, no, it’s okay. I’m sorry. I’m sorry.”

Allen, who lost his momentum in an instant.

Marie offered steamed potatoes sprinkled with sugar, asking if the sugar was low, but Allen left the place saying sorry.

“Dew, Dunareff…”

“If Dunarev was the vice-captain… Hehe!

When the guardians realize that Marie is Dunarev’s eldest daughter, they sneak away. Corinne, who watched it, smiled dejectedly.

“Why didn’t you know?”

Once again, the ignorant self of the previous episode became strange.

* * * *

There are seven guardians from each branch who will participate in the mission to rescue the saintess. The guardians who could not participate here dispatched 4 people each, so the number of simple guardians alone was over 500.

390 knights and 110 wizards. On top of that, the combat clergy of the Kingdom Army and the Protestant Church… and even the mercenaries who were ordered to mobilize unlimitedly.

In fact, the mercenaries did not take permission, but rather wanted to take part in the free plunder of the Mage Tower.

It seems that each of them intends to obtain a small fishing boat, sailboat, etc., and invade the Iron Islands independently.

From the point of view of the headquarters, they were silent about the increase in meat shields without consuming limited ships and wyverns.

Saint Estelle was kidnapped on June 7th. It is now June 18th, less than two weeks away. The fleet gathered in the harbor with the Iron Islands in front exceeded 100 ships.

“Great Kyumonda, employer.”

“It’s because the saintess was kidnapped.”

Doron is also the vice-captain of the popular mercenary corps. However, you may not be familiar with the size of the mercenaries who hunted monsters in the border area and the corps that are said to be the best in the continent.

“What about Wars Sky Mercenaries?”

“I just arrived. All 300 members of the War Sky Mercenary Corps.”

War Sky Mercenary Corps.

They are the second highest level mercenaries after the Aden family in the Guardians employment system.

Originally, they only hired dozens of people, but since they brought the entire mercenary group, there’s nothing to say about their combat power.

“Did the talk with the captain go well?”

“As long as you give me money. I’ve finished talking about the plundered resources.”

“That’s enough.”

“But employer. It just came to my mind when I came here… Crossing the strait is quite risky. You’ll have to be careful.”

The Steel Archipelago consists of dozens of islands and a main island twice the size of Jeju Island. In order to reach the main island where the magic tower is located, dozens of islands had to be conquered one after another.

Of course, the Magic Tower must have prepared enough for this.

“So, why don’t you come and join the war now?”

“That can’t be the case. We are trustworthy mercenaries. Once hired, we give our allegiance.”

yes i know enough So, in the previous episode, Park Si-hoo also used the Worst Sky Mercenary Corps.

Although they are expensive, they are expensive mercenaries.

“Don’t worry. You guys won’t do dangerous landings and occupations.”

“Hmm?”

Doron looks questioning at my affirmation. At that time, Marie tossed the tent and entered.

“Corin! The advance team is preparing to depart!”

“Okay, then it’s time for work.”

“······employer? The advance team is the most risky. Why?”

yes i know Most of the members of the advance party are greedy meat shield mercenaries. You don’t have to take the risk by being among them.

“Trust me. We’re going to have a great adventure.”

Corinne Locke, the man with the waves.

I’m going now.

* * * *

The magic tower kidnapped the saintess.

Accordingly, the Kingdom and the Guardian Association were quite quick.

Administrative Order No. 1 issued immediately after the abduction of the saintess. Here, powerful guardians are conscripted to strike the steel archipelago, the stronghold of the Mage Tower.

But before that, the Iron Islands were separated from the continent. In order to occupy the Iron Islands, an amphibious battle with a large fleet is essential.

And the Mage Tower was well prepared for this.

Hundreds of magicians spread a magic circle on the coast, and the magic tower that the magic tower installed to prevent outside invasion turned the Iron Islands into a huge war fortress.

Even though their power has shrunk since the Witch Revolution, they once monopolized magic in this world.

A chimera mass-produced with all sorts of magic tools left behind by ancestors 100 years ago and terrible experiments on living organisms. Even mercenaries mobilized with tremendous money.

The Iron Islands are now demon caves themselves. The natural advantage of the archipelago, which is a collection of numerous islands, and the material resources accumulated over hundreds of years.

The power of the Mage Tower, which even the Guardians and the kingdom cannot understand, will eat the invaders in an instant.

“Hehehe… Is it finally time to use this magic tool?”

One of the Seven Schools of the Mage Tower. Elder Blaine, who led the Blue School, giggled as he watched the fleet approaching the Iron Islands.

The kingdom army has not yet moved in earnest. However, the fact that so many fleets are dividing the territorial waters of the archipelago… is an external presence.

In other words, a group of guardians, mercenaries, and adventurers. The number already seems to exceed hundreds of ships.

From small fishing boats, small and medium sized fishing boats to large cargo ships.

“Elder Blaine. Quite a lot.”

“Hehe, no matter what, they are fire moths. They are pitiful things that attack without knowing how precious their lives are.”

Rather than an ordered military action, it was a chaotic procession that showed a certain ‘will’. It’s no different than why they do such reckless things.

「All acts of plunder toward the magic tower are free.」

A few days ago, it was a proclamation proclaimed by the kingdom of El Las.

a princess and a saint. An unprecedented situation in which Estelle Hadassah El Las was attacked and even kidnapped. The kingdom was furious and made up its mind to turn the mage tower into a mess.

“In order to mobilize the mercenaries and the like, they must have needed food suitable for them.”

“They are a very lowly bunch.”

Whether it’s a few hundred or a few thousand, it doesn’t matter. This is their territory. The moment they land on this land, the magic tower will mobilize all its firepower to annihilate the rainbow worms.

Did you know that seagulls are just beach chickens?

Yes, as long as it lands on land.

-Quaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

-Rumble! Bang bang…!

It happened in an instant.

The boats in the lead were overturned by the sudden surge of the waves, and they hit hard with such force that they threw the fleet into the sea.

“Aaaagh!”

“What’s this?!”

A boat overturned by the waves. rocking boat. Sailors aboard the tossing boat screamed and collapsed.

For them, it is a moment of reverence. The world has turned upside down and nature has not allowed them to advance.

And naturally, they find the culprit.

“Eh, Mage Tower bastards! Are they even manipulating the weather!”

“The Magic Tower guys made a wave! Damn it! Get back!”

“How can you do such a terrible thing…!”

The fleets attempting to invade the Iron Islands cast their gazes of anger and hatred upon the mages across the straits.

I’m afraid, mage tower. What kind of potential were they hiding?!

“Creating thunder and lightning and waves… could it be Elder Blaine?”

“Ohhh, he’s also Elder Blaine! Such amazing magic!”

The wizards of the Mage’s Tower naturally look at Blaine due to the huge magical phenomenon of manipulating nature.

However, Elder Blaine of the Blue School of Magic could not close his gaping mouth as he was sweating coldly.

“············It wasn’t me who did it?”

The dumbfounded wizard’s voice was drowned out by the roaring waves and thunder.

·········

······

And the center of that thunder. There is a large frigate with a huge and luxurious ‘Golden Potato Flower’ flag that can withstand huge waves.

“Ahhhhh! Waves! The boat is rocking, Corinneh!”

“Abandon the ship, drop the ship!”

“Calm down, Junior Cranel! This ship won’t sink easily! It’s the great magic escort frigate of our Dunarev trading fleet!”

“I don’t know, something like that…! Uweeeeeeeek!”

In the midst of a rough storm, in the middle of a frigate battered by rain and waves. There is a man who does not lose against natural disasters, no, becomes nature itself and burns the soul of a musician.

His name is Corinne Locke.

A new musician who debuted today.

He sings School Days by the great musician Chuck Berry and plucks the harp strings with excitement.

-Kiyo oh oh oh oh!

Its appearance reminds us of a legendary guitarist, a great legend who gave birth to one of the modern music genres.

Obviously, the technique will not reach him. But that hot soul will not be defeated by thunder and waves!

“It’s a big roll! Mother fucker…!”

【Wow. Rating: Legendary】

This is the stringed instrument of God King Dagda. When played with a string made from the cat king’s liver, it has a special magical effect.

This is the legendary titan-slaying harp that beat nine giants to death. Believe and hit.

“Hee hee hee…! No one can go! No one oh oh oh oh ye eh haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!”
