Episode 454 Celia’s Slave Prize, Justice’s Slave Prize (10)

After three hours, the knight came to his senses.

It was an internal injury that could be said to be quite serious.

Mien’s treatment worked effectively.

“The treatment is over, but please lie down a little longer. I just brought porridge, so I’ll leave it here.”

She smiled and put down the wooden bowl.

He looked down at his lighter body and said quietly.

“Did you heal me? Why did you do that… My master won’t let you go.”

“Do you need a reason to help people?”

“Help doesn’t need a reason, but favor does have a reason. My master would probably have abandoned me. The fact that I can be this fine must have been someone’s kindness.”

Mien slowly nodded her head as she grasped the situation quite quickly.

The knight man also nodded.

After thinking for a while, he stood up from his seat with a determined face.

“If you receive a favor, it is your duty to return it. There must be something you want from me, so we should talk.”

Mien got up after him.

“Your heart is straight. I will guide you.”

Ray sat in the shade of a tree and thought about the order of things to come.

“As soon as Celia’s work is done, we will need to travel to other kingdoms to increase slaves.”

These days, the movement of the black room is unusual.

It is quieter than usual, as if decorating something.

He did not make the mistake of thinking that a moment of silence was peace.

The tension before the typhoon arrives.

When the blade hidden in the silence is revealed, it will be the time when the world is in flames.

Likewise, Sunbok, who was sitting leaning against a tree, looked at the clouds that flowed in vain and asked.

– Brother, what are you going to do now?

“We must destroy Celia from within. The current Celia is too rotten. It is time to reveal the behavior of the aristocrats and change the political world.”

– But I wonder if that’s the right thing to do.

At Sunbok’s words, Ray looked at him.

Then he looked at Ray and said.

– Since there is a black room, we have been able to easily infer and move their actions so far. It would be nice if the slaves to be created in the future could be managed without being noticed by the black room, but if you buy a check from the black room, you may come to a situation where it is harder to move than now.

That’s right.

In the current situation, if the black room’s containment and the coalition’s attack came, it would be difficult to form an organization.

If that happens, it will only go back to the previous times when you move as an individual.

can’t stand still

Even now, while they are thinking about the future, the Black Room is constantly moving.

However, despite Soonbok’s worrying words, Ray did not waver.

On the contrary, isn’t it filled with more heat?

“If ten slaves can’t do it, I’ll just increase it to a hundred. If not a hundred, then a thousand. If that doesn’t work, I’ll have to make everyone in the Black Room into slaves and destroy them. Hehehe.”

Soon-bok let out a deep voice, ‘Emm’ at the words that seemed like madness at first glance.

– His vocation is a slave trader.

There were blacksmiths, cooks, carpenters, and merchants as vocations assigned by others, but today one more has increased.

As they were chatting under the shade of a tree, a knight accompanied by Mien approached.

He looked at the two and bowed his head.

“You are saved. Thank you benefactor.”

Even though they had only crossed swords once, the way they willingly bowed their heads without forgetting the goodwill was that of a large group of people.

The article continued.

“I will never forget this grace of mine. So I will give you my advice. Hurry up and get out of this town.”

Even though it sounded like a joke, Ray understood it at once.

“We know that the identity of the owner is a nobleman. Besides, since I shamed you earlier, there is a possibility that a noble with a strong sense of pride might retaliate.”

The knight looked at Ray and nodded.

“Right. So go ahead and get out of town. I know you have strong escorts, but they are not strong enough to deal with the nobles’ troops.”

Ray is the one who stopped the undead army by herself.

A penny or two saved by the nobles could be wiped out in the blink of an eye.

In addition, there is no reason to refuse to come to a nobleman to become a slave!

Soonbok was also surprised by the unexpected surprise (?).

– It seems that she is a woman who wants to die.

It was like sticking your head through the jaws of a tiger.

“If he comes, we have to deal with him.”

I was struggling with what to do in my heart, but I couldn’t help laughing at the caring mind that took care of alleviating my worries.

The more the corners of their mouths went up, the more the knight became more impatient.

“I mean, I don’t like it! The noble knights are mighty, and the soldiers are armed with spears and swords. With their number reaching 3,000, it is a huge army that even the royal family should keep a close eye on!”

It’s even better that the royal family is watching!

It’s so good that you want to hug the article who brings you good news every time you open your mouth!

No matter what he said, the knight sighed and left one more word.

“No matter how strong you are, you can’t beat a high-ranking aristocrat. Even if you win the battle, even if you talk about the slave auction, the royal family will not believe your words.”

Hearing that he was a high-ranking aristocrat, Ray eventually couldn’t stand it and hugged the knight.

“Hahahaha! Amazing, Great!”

“Why are you like this!”

A high-ranking aristocrat!

It’s a big fish! I was fishing without much expectation, and the big thing asked!

With this opportunity, we will be able to clean up the political world in Celia!

The things I worried about having saved a knight’s life once disappeared!

I guess this is why people have to do good things and live!

Everyone was bewildered in a situation where only Ray was happy.

But what then!

If you’re happy, that’s all!

Reaping an unexpected harvest, Ray decided to find the third slave dealer in a hurry.

* * *

The second slaver who managed to escape was heartbroken.

“In this industry, information is the lifeline. They say it’s like the lesser ones. Kkeuk.”

In preparation for such a time, it was helpful to establish connections with the information guild.

It was not something that the information guild liked by spending a lot of money for no reason.

He took out a mana orb from his bosom and held it up.

Carefully pouring mana into it, the reaction came back immediately.

As the minute mana signal made his fingertips tingle, the slave trader opened his mouth.

“Things have gone bad, so please send an escort.”

– Escort troops? What are you talking about?

“Some strange guys started attacking the slave traders. Fortunately, I was able to escape after hearing the news first, but I cannot guarantee that no pursuit will come.”

– …Then did you contact this room in a situation where you might have been tracked down?

An eerie voice spread through the mana orb.

The slave trader, a little intimidated by him, excused himself.

“I have confirmed time and time again that there is no tracking. But won’t it be even more difficult if I get caught?”

– ….

I couldn’t hear a voice from the mana crystal ball.

A voice came from the crystal ball that had remained silent for a long time.

– good night. I’ll send you an escort as you wish. If you’ve bothered this room for just a small thing, you’ll pay the price.

“I see.”

– Let’s meet and hear the details.

Pop –

The flow of mana was cut off.

He’s the kind of guy who always quits when he wants to.

I don’t care if others have something to say or not.

The slave trader spat at that attitude that was so lacking even if he didn’t have a fight.

“Hey, hey! I’m dirty, so I’ll have to hit this job!”

While he was kicking a tree to take out his anger, two figures in night clothes fell by his side.

“Strike me… I should have told you beforehand that betrayal is death.”

“You’re the kind of guy who’ll regret it only when a knife goes through his throat.”

The slave trader’s goosebumps went as he heard their voices over his back.

How long has it been since I contacted Sujeong-gu and the escort has already arrived?

He secretly gnashed his teeth.

‘You’ve been tailing me!’

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the escort to arrive so quickly.

“We have confirmed that there is no tracking. Tell me why you ran away from the capital.”

When the man in black spoke, the slave trader answered with tears in his eyes.

“I don’t know exactly what’s going on, but the slave traders are disappearing one by one. If I had stayed in the capital, I probably wouldn’t have escaped their hands either.”

“Are the slave traders disappearing?”

“yes. From what I’ve researched after giving money to the information guild, it seems that someone is only targeting slave traders. Isn’t it supposed to be the hostile forces of the Black Room…?”

If he just goes on like this, he may disappear without a rumor at their hands.

That’s why the slave traders might be a hostile force of the black room, and laid the stone in advance.

The black men exchanged glances with each other.

If it is really a hostile force, it may be necessary to report it to the upper level.

They looked back at the slave dealer, as if they thought they couldn’t decide on their own.

“…Are you sure it’s an enemy force?”

The slave trader, who was about to say, ‘I just said…’, shut his mouth at the words of the black man.

“If it’s just something I’ve said, I won’t let it go.”

He died this way and died that way.

The slave trader, who had been tearing up in his heart, hurriedly nodded.

“Woe for sure! Even the information guild was suspicious of their sudden action!”

In order to increase the credibility of the horse, he even sold the Aman Information Guild.

When it got to that point, the black men also nodded.

If even the information guild was suspicious, it was understandable enough.

If they can prevent the hostile forces in advance, their position in the black room will also rise.

Blinded by ‘promotion’, they did not even think of doubting once again.

“We will take care of that.”

“From now on, wait for orders from the outskirts, not from the royal capital.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I see.”

The slave trader, who had barely survived, brushed his chest.

The words that the slave trader spit out in order to live eventually became the fuse that the black room kept Ray in check.
