4. Rynella’s fate is decided by Rynella (31)

The man with the long sword was defeated in a single blow.

It was hard to accept that fact, but the light in his eyes was gone as he vomited blood. Of course, it was none of my business.

I grabbed his back and dragged him.

He was highly likely to be related to the Dark Church anyway. Being a member of a gang in the back alley, his skills were quite good.

Roughly the level of being an ordinary knight from a high-ranking aristocratic family.

It was a skill that wasn’t crazy for me, but it wasn’t even a skill that would be in a rogue’s band.

There were a lot of people who fell down, so there were a lot of parts that got stuck. In the end, I couldn’t overcome my irritation and threw the man away.

To the door of the drawing room far away.

The wooden door was smashed with a thumping noise.

There was a cloud of dust, and you could hear the furry man in it breathing. I jumped over the fallen people and entered the drawing room at once.

The hulking men who were raising their bodies moaning alternately looked at me and the man with the long sword.

Then, voluntarily, he lay down on the ground again.

He seemed to realize that if he rebelled, he would never look good.

The cool guy with the long sword tried to touch the ground with his arm, so I kicked him in the side.

“Kuuk!”

The man rolled on the ground again with a scream like death. Trapped against the wall, he seemed to have no energy to stand up any longer.

The eyes of the furry middle-aged man who was watching the scene widened.

His voice trembled pitifully as it scraped through his vocal chords.

“Uh, how… Dozens of people, even the older brother who is a sorijangdo (笑裏藏刀), clung to it, and in just a few minutes!”

‘Sorijangdo’

I glanced at the man holding the long sword. No matter how I looked at it, he didn’t look older than middle-aged, and he never even smiled at me.

Anyway, all the guys in the back alley had a bad sensibility for naming.

Even though I thought that it was better than ‘The Hatchet Confucius’, I took out the hatchet that I had hung from my waist.

“I’m in the third year of the academy’s swordsmanship department.”

“So, what kind of award is the hand ax and swordsmanship department…?” aagh!”

Pak, and the edge of the hatchet exquisitely blew off one of the middle-aged fingers.

When I raised my hand, the hatchet came back as if it were natural.

It was not an ordinary feat.

To middle-aged eyes, it would look like a magic trick.

He clenched his severed finger with his free hand and trembled, clenching his teeth so he wouldn’t scream anymore.

The light of fear flashed in his eyes.

I stumbled and bent my knees, just as I had before leaving the drawing room. The eyes of the middle-aged man who faced me squarely were watery.

He was a human being who had destroyed dozens of people in an unknown amount of time.

It would be strange if you weren’t afraid, but in the first place, there was no more number left for him.

Now, if we were to divide the superiority and inferiority of power, I was the overwhelming superiority.

I said with a smile.

“Let’s stop asking useless questions. One thing each other needs, but instead, you get a finger flying every time you ask a question.”

The middle-aged nodded without hesitation.

It was only a waste of time to hesitate anyway. At least it was cut neatly, so it was supposed to stick.

If you’re not a high-ranking priest, you’ll be left with aftereffects.

If he obediently cooperated, he was even willing to introduce the saintess.

“Okay, first one. What about the missing people?”

“… … Mo, I don’t know!”

I looked at the middle-aged without saying anything.

Then, when I quietly put strength into the hand holding the hatchet again, the middle-aged man, who instinctively sensed the subtle change, exclaimed as if in a seizure.

“Gee, I really don’t know! that just… We just sold information!”

Violence in succession was bound to push the human spirit to the limit.

In particular, the fact that high-intensity violence can be taken for granted at any time gives a strong sense of tension to humans. Even I didn’t even show a sign of conflict on purpose.

It was to maximize the effect of the interrogation.

It’s between seeing and not seeing each other anyway, so there’s nothing wrong with living a little afraid.

I silently glared at the middle-aged man. The middle-aged pupil was shaking violently.

It didn’t look like he was lying. A low voice came out of my mouth.

“To whom?”

“Well, I don’t know that either. Like I said, I just did what I was told… aa! All right! I’ll tell you everything!”

As the excuses grew longer and longer, I had no choice but to raise the hatchet again.

Immediately after that, the middle-aged covered his head with both arms and started to pick up any noise.

“Top! It’s an order from the top, but I don’t know the details! That, just hand over the information when the person wearing the black hood comes… … .”

“Anyone looks suspicious?”

“Oh, I couldn’t help it!”

Panting, the middle-aged continued to make excuses.

“Non-performing loans are sold anyway… Even if I tried to collect it, I couldn’t collect it, so I just handed over the debtor’s information! No matter how the collection is done after that… aagh!”

Once again, a finger flew through the air with blood.

Seven remaining fingers.

I threw out a word with a faint smile.

“… … I didn’t ask.”

Heuuu, heuuuu, taking a breath, the middle aged seemed to have calmed down his excitement a little.

He hesitated and tried to get away from me.

Of course, there were limits to that, though.

I continued to ask questions in a nonchalant voice.

“Anyway, I haven’t heard anything. Does it make sense to just hand over the debtor’s information and be done with it?”

“It’s true… Ahhh!”

The middle-aged man, who was speechless as if he was unfair, opened his eyes as if he remembered something.

He stuttered and opened his mouth as if it were a lifeline.

“Bird, biological experiment!”

“… … A living experiment?”

It was a word that made me feel bad just hearing it.

Even with animals, the subject of this story was the missing people.

It meant that they were all human.

As my eyebrows narrowed, the middle-aged laughed as if he had finally remembered important information.

“Hehehe… That’s right! I must have been told to hand over the data necessary for the ‘living experiment’.”

“… … madman.”

I sighed deeply and gave him a cool look.

“Even after hearing that, did you hand over the information?”

“That, that… … .”

The middle-aged man rolled his eyes intently and looked at me.

But somehow it was a contribution that provided me with important information, so I decided not to bother middle-aged anymore.

I got up and grabbed the remaining stack of papers on the table.

It was bloodstained, but the important information was still readable.

My questioning continued.

“So, how many people did you sell in total?”

“So far, that… About 9 people?”

Hmm, I turned over the documents one by one.

It was a bit lacking with 9 people.

So I glanced at him and asked again.

“Is the number different from the document?”

“Some of them are truly missing! Basically, all bad debts are passed, but as I said, there are cases where you run away at night! That, that strange person didn’t even pursue those who had run away… … .”

I turned the papers page by page without saying anything.

A small murmur escaped from my mouth.

“… … Doris, the son of Mrs. Jonah, who runs the mill.”

At the information flowing out, the middle-aged man’s gaze, which had been shaking his body, blankly turned to me.

It was because I was wondering if I was reading debtor information.

However, I just casually flipped through the documents without even going through the detailed information.

“Marie, are you an adult already? It seems that he couldn’t stand it and started selling fruit that he was eagerly waiting for… When I was young, my dream was to eat fruit to my heart’s content. He was a kid who especially liked apples.”

Tak, I threw the papers onto the table helplessly.

My glowing eyes turned to the middle-aged man.

“… … The whereabouts are unknown, so I can’t even eat an apple now.”

My hand, which seemed to be moving toward the middle-aged again, immediately grabbed the middle-aged man’s collar.

The middle-aged man, who had been lifted so lightly, struggled in the air with a chuckle.

I warned the middle-aged in a seething tone.

“Do you think I don’t know all these people? It’s me who grew up together in this small estate from a young age… tell me straight Are there really only nine people?”

“Keuk, heck… Gee, really… Whoa, it’s real! Mae, I swear!”

With a thump, my hand threw the man to the ground with all its might.

The man’s body jumped up once, and a choking moan came out.

I shouted as I pointed the hatchet at his neck.

“… … How do you know that?”

“Huh, uh, what are you talking about… turn it off… … .”

“Wasn’t all the bad debts handed over to that person?”

The middle-aged pupils were filled with strong doubts.

On the contrary, seeing him as if he was seeking an answer from me, I burst into tears and shouted.

“But how many of them were kidnapped by that bastard and how many really ran away… How do you know! You haven’t seen it yourself, have you?”

“That, that… … .”

The middle-aged man, who was stuttering and trying to make excuses, soon put on a stupid expression.

A hollow voice escaped from his mouth.

“… … what.”

It was then that the atmosphere of middle age changed completely.

His limbs wriggled wildly like a broken doll, and he lifted himself off the ground.

In the process, the arm joints were bent in the opposite direction, and a horrifying noise resounded.

Still, there was no trace of pain on his face.

“Why, why, uhh, why, why, uhh… Why aah?!”

He suddenly howled and started scratching his face skin with his fingers.

Blood was flowing and his eyes were about to pop out, but he didn’t stop scratching his face.

Rather, the pace was only increasing.

I was also taken aback by the sudden change of circumstances.

“No, what… Hey, are you okay?!”

“Why, why, why?! Turn it off, heh… Black. Uh, why?”

Now the middle aged was even crying.

I hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to respond right away.

I’ve crossed all kinds of dead lines, but this is the first time in my life.

To think that a human who was talking normally would have a seizure like this.

The middle aged looked at me with desperate eyes.

My hand was still scratching the skin, and my face was covered in blood.

He gasped like a dog and told me.

“Go, Gongja-nim… Hehe, hehehe, uh, why, panting, ki, memory… My head is aa… … !”

At least it was certain that he wasn’t doing this voluntarily.

I jumped right into him.

I wondered if it would work if I fainted.

But at that moment.

A jet-black pattern floating above the middle-aged Mokwool stood out.

The grotesque figure was splashing a dark red electric charge.

I was taken aback for a moment, but then I remembered that I had seen the pattern somewhere.

The contract magic of the Dark Church that I saw at Guilford Orphanage.

I swear and had no choice but to take a step back.

“… … f*ck this.”

And with a bang, an explosion erupted.

The middle-aged bone pain shattered, and a fountain of blood gushed out from the empty spot. It was hard, and the flesh, bone fragments, and brain were sticky.

Staggering by the shock wave, I stepped back a few more steps and looked at the body of the man who had lost his head with empty eyes.

The corpse tipped over quickly fell over onto the puddle of blood I had created.

Blood splattered all around.

I blankly looked around. The big guys pretending to have collapsed and the man called ‘Sorijangdo’ kept their mouths shut as if they were dead.

And soon, a black pattern floating above their heads.

I sighed and threw myself out of the living room.

Blood sprayed and blood flowed down the parlor door like a tide.

With blood all over my body, I had to shake my body to get up.

A sigh escaped my mouth as I touched my forehead.

“… … I should report it to the head family first.”

Caught the Dark Church’s tail.

Nothing was known about the contract magic, but I had no choice but to trust the Reynolds family’s Magic Corps, which Mr. Reynolds cherished.

A few minutes later I grabbed a passer-by after leaving the building.

As soon as they saw my face, passers-by’s faces turned pale, but fortunately they were familiar, so they were able to pass it over.

I stayed there for a while until the party arrived at the scene.

Dozens of bodies groaning in the hallway, and the drawing room dripping with blood behind.

Seeing the bloody scene, the party had no choice but to pause for a moment.

Among them, the expression of Lia, who arrived as a representative of the Percus family, was the most worth seeing.

Open eyes, quivering lips.

I said hello to my cute little sister.

“… … Are you here?”

and right after that.

“Mi, crazy! crazy, crazy, crazy… … !”

“Ah! Lee, Leah! I told you to stop hitting me!”

I had to be beaten on the back again and again by my enraged sister.

I didn’t get hit even once during the battle.

It was unfair.
