Skeleton Soldier Couldn't Protect the Dungeon

I was surprised by the decisive answer.

Maybe he'll find out a little bit more.

I don't even want to look at the list of information I have or talk about it.

Rejection without a word.

While I'm wondering how to deal with this.

“Then I shall enter. ”

The target behind the curtain disappears.

The space where he disappeared. I unwrapped the scroll that was left alone.

Read about the Marquis.

What does it say?

Maybe he's staying in the city?

Maybe they're following me.

While making these assumptions, my hand was tearing the seal off the scroll.

However, after checking the first line written on the scroll, tension suddenly snapped.

Born Batienne von Leandro: 1118, 29 years old/deceased: [formerly] Targeted Party [formerly] Endorectal Organization: [formerly] Blue Lion Knight General/Combat Squad Leader: Xxxxx Court seat: off-road Parent:.

Residence:.

Hobby:.

However, what was written below did not come to my attention properly.

Born Batienne von Leandro: 1118, 29 years of age/death.

Death.

I looked back several times at the name of Batienne von Leandro and the letter "Death" written below.

But the letters didn't change.

Of course, there is no possibility that it is the same name.

Did he go out to sea and hunt Kraken again?

That he's dead.

I didn't really understand who could have killed him.

I looked down and began to read down the details.

< Trying to rebel against the Imperial Court,

Murdered in secret and then disguised as suicide.

The scroll contains a brief account of the Marquis.

The date and location of the Director's visit was noted after the work was done.

Surprisingly, three days ago.

Director goes down in three days.

If you hurry, you can leave just in time for the funeral.

Suicide.

Isaac spits. I was chewing the funny joker around and asked him.

[If you've plotted a rebellion. Isn't it normal to execute them publicly?]

Director.

It is a ceremony for those who are well versed in the kingdom of men when they die.

It is clearly strange to have such respect for a traitor.

Heheheh heh. He chose to think about it.

He was one of the four great swordsmen representing the Empire. Officially, it was a tragic suicide of a hero.

Besides, he's the general of the Blue Lion Knights, right? If they were executed for imperial treason, wouldn't the children below feel uneasy? On the brink of war.

[Why? Strange to think it was suicide, too.

Do you really think this guy's up to treason?]

It was full of unknown things.

Isaac asked me a strange question.

You can make a reason. You said he was a loner with no words. What if she killed herself with depression?

[I see.]

But why do you care about him? Are you a fan?

Of course, I had no intention of explaining my situation to Isaac.

By the way.

If the Marquis is dead, then the feeling of being hunted is entirely mistaken.

“Phew.”

I put the date and place of the Director's visit in my head.

Hrrrr!

A moderately crumpled piece of paper burns in the brazier. The spark rises dizzily in the air.

On a harmless line, I wanted to find out about the death of the Marquis.

Of course, I don't intend to rush to the Imperial Capital right away.

Lena, the others need to rest.

But if the Marquis is dead...

Who else would be after me if it wasn't him?

Jubbuck.

I circled the same alley three times to check the tailing.

Of course, I don't see anyone following me. None of them were sensory.

Am I mistaken? ’

Yuck.

I finally entered the tavern along the road.

If you go in and sit where the entrance is visible, you think there must be a tracker among the new arrivals.

There was only one tavern with access to the guest area.

< If the light is on, sell it.

A tavern with a fairly long sign.

A thin woman with a discarded look on her eyes was smoking a water cigarette at the counter.

The woman blinked her green eyes and greeted me.

“Hello."

Behind the counter.

Two octagons flap their tiny wings in a large cage that seems to fit three human nuts.

I looked inside the store.

Various patterned translucent cloths hung from the ceiling to distinguish between the table and table.

There was a group of people who gathered and poured drinks that looked expensive at first glance.

There seemed to be some who lay on their side and placed a large pot of water cigarettes on the table.

I looked at the menu and ordered a water cigarette at the top.

“Strawberry flavor. ”

“I'll be right with you. The table is this way.”

Price is 30 widgets.

You pay for three fairy tales first.

Long brown hair followed the woman down to her waist. Following her instructions, I buried myself deep into the couch.

“Put this on. ”

The woman looked at me with green eyes, handing me a disposable cigarette from the counter.

I asked him to pretend to be natural.

Y-you put it upside down.

I switched it properly and looked at the entrance quietly. I activated the detection skill and focused on the entrance.

It fills the ribs with strawberry-flavored smoke.

Time flies.

But no one comes in.

I feel no suspicious behavior around me at all.

It's been over two hours.

I looked at the clear glass jar on the table.

There was already more than half of the liquid in the pot that was boiling sweet smoke.

Don't act like you're a water-smoking skeleton.

It was then.

Suddenly, I felt his gaze. I looked around the entrance. Someone deep in a gray hood was waving at me.

"Was he following me? ’

I got up from my seat to chase the gray hood.

A suspicious man in a hood disappears between them.

It was time to follow him out of the entrance.

“Sir, you have to calculate. ”

The woman looking at the counter blinked her eyes and reached out to me with white hands.

“Calculations? Didn't you do that when you came in? ”

“The gentleman who just left said he was going to come here and count his table. ”

“What. You're not coming in, you're going out? ”

“She's been here for two hours. ”

“This is a total of 9 loti 10 widgets. ”

The woman looked me straight in the green eyes and said.

“How much did you eat?! ”

I was embarrassed for a moment and cried out.

I was charged more than 30 times the amount of water cigarettes I ordered.

“Add 5 spoonfuls of Golden Syrup to Nutty Bold, then add a drop of Château Emple to Moon Brignac. Add 6 spoonfuls of Noble Sweety to Sequin Ale.

“You were so sweet. You ordered all the best stuff. ”

“Bullshit. I'm out. ”

“Yes? You're leaving? You can't leave without the money.

The counter woman seemed to be drugged somewhere.

I think I inhaled something while I was sitting.

“And he asked me to give you this. ”

The woman gave me a note.

As soon as I opened it, there was a strange word written in the appropriate curved text.

< You will thank me soon.

I had no idea what you were talking about.

Strangely, though.

I felt like I saw this handwriting somewhere.

It was definitely familiar; otherwise,

I wouldn't have paid the counter so easily.

I paid as fast as it said on the bill and went outside.

I'm in trouble if I cause trouble.

The chase for the gray hood is urgent.

The target is found with the user's detection skill fully activated.

However, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't feel the woman's spirit at all.

It couldn't have disappeared out of range so quickly.

Isaac?

I wanted to ask for his advice.

But he was strangely quiet.

Something seems to be bothering me.

‘You were noisy when you didn't call.

There is only one possibility.

The gray hood that just went out completely ignores the inner senses.

I thought to myself.

Why did he make me money?

What am I thankful for?

I continued to look around in doubts.

It could be right behind me.

It could be over the fence.

Maybe he's looking down at me from the roof.

You really think it was the gray hoodie that was chasing me?

Who else could it be?

Lack of information

It was frustrating.

‘Information. I need you to raise Lena on T&T. ’

Raise a helper in the dark.

Lena's scenario needed to be quickly achieved.

The next morning, I left the road with Lena. I wandered around all night, but I couldn't find the gray hoodie.

I glanced at Lena.

“Have you had a good rest? ”

“Yes!”

Lena, unlike yesterday, was quite radiant on her skin.

I remembered the image of yesterday that was stabbed with deep fatigue.

‘Good to go to bed. ’

Baltoli does not stray from Lena. She wriggles in her chest.

Dagdac! Dagdac!

We rode for two days. I could hear the other dungeons in the middle, but I didn't want to delay on my way to the capital.

A knight in Batienne von Leandroblue armor.

I wanted to see the Marquis's funeral with my own eyes.

I wasn't the only one who wanted to make Lena the T&T Branch Head as soon as possible.

There was also a secret greed.

If the date on the scroll the Marquis died is correct.

Once you arrive within two days, you can once again absorb the Marquis of Essence.

Essence absorption criteria are increasingly steep.

However, as long as it's a monument, it doesn't matter.

This time, I even had a vague expectation of what skills I could absorb from him.

After leaving Daliac.

The second time I saw the sunset, I started to lose slowly.

“Master!"

Heeheeheeheeheehee!

Lena starts slowing her horse down slowly.

“What is it?”

“Straight through the narrow canyon." ”

“A narrow canyon? ”

“Yes. It's a canyon where international theories passed a thousand years ago whining about being narrow. I'm starting to feel like I'm getting close to the capital. And a nomination for a theorem. ”

“That canyon is only one road and it's narrow. It's easy to hit when someone's on ambush. ”

“How long will it take to get back?

“Four more days. Three and a half days if you push it a little bit harder. If there's no reason to hurry.

Lena doesn't seem to want to go through the canyon.

But there's nothing to worry about.

By that time, the possibility of absorbing the Marquis of Essence completely vanishes.

I decided to be greedy.

“We head straight for the canyon. ”

I ran first.

I ran for an hour or so.

The plains are finished. The rough mountains meet us.

“Right here?”

“That's right. As soon as you cross this mountain, it's the capital of the empire. ”

Scenario achievement is imminent.

The Marquis's funeral is at hand.

The terrain is too narrow and rugged to ride anymore.

“I can't take you unless you carry it. ”

We let all five horses go far towards the plain.

As I ran along the narrow path, I moved.

It was important to get to the capital quickly.

It was when I walked a little deeper into the canyon.

“Teacher! Ambush. ”

Lena, who was looking around carefully with her telescope, said low.

“It's all over the place. I think he came out of the capital and waited. ”

She was right.

I can feel the movements of those hiding in the woods ahead.

Outside the detection range, the trail continues one by one.

“The siege. I can't tell how wide it is. It's tightening up! ”

He didn't follow me constantly.

“What the hell.

It's like I threw myself into a net.

The target doesn't seem to have this much of a siege.

"To me. Is it worth it? ’

Lena's observations show that the enemy is clearly being replenished from the front.

Beyond the canyon is the capital.

It is said that forces in the capital have moved.

“What could Isaac have done?

That's suspicious. ”

But he hasn't spoken to me properly since he stopped by Dalian's Tavern.

I don't know.

“Son of a bitch.

The answer was ambiguous.

Lena shouts in an urgent voice.

“We have to get out of here. ”
