Chapter 10: Contracts (1)

"The ghost soldiers disappear."

"Did the master succeed in killing the warlock?"

I do not know.

Azad, Rayza, and Ashtar relaxed as they watched the constant influx of ghost soldiers disappear.

I kept my vigilance just in case, but it didn't seem like anything else would appear.

As expected, there was not a single bug to be found in the desolate field except for the three of them.

Liza raised her index finger to her ear and sent a call to Jamie.

master?

-Ah. Alas. can you hear me

Unlike before, Jamie's voice could be heard clearly.

The problem seemed to have been resolved.

"Where are you? Did you defeat the Warlock by any chance?"

"Are you connected with the master?"

"Where are you?"

"Everyone calm down. Please tell me."

Liza quieted the brothers and listened to Jamie again.

-I? I'm behind you

"Are you talking after us?"

rear? Is there no one behind you?"

Azad looked behind him, but saw no ant. Then I heard a sigh in Liza's ear.

-Tell that idiot to look further.

"If you go further ."

Liza saw the shabby house behind her.

A familiar man was leaning against a tree right next to the house they should have been defending.

When Azad and Ashtar saw him, they raised their arms and waved them.

master!

"Is it all over?!"

The two ran towards Jamie faster than anyone else.

It was like seeing a dog that saw its owner.

Liza cut off communication and shook her head as she looked at her two pathetic sisters.

But he also wondered what was going on, so he quickly ran to Jamie's place with the two of them.

But Jamie was still unfinished.

"Everyone, please wait first."

He glanced at the inside of the house and instructed the three people to run.

Suddenly unable to move forward, Azad tried to shout in a bewildered voice.

It was Jamie who knew that and had also cast silence magic on it.

Azad shouted with his mouth wide open, but because he had lost his voice, it was just a silent clamor.

It was the same with Ashtar and Liza.

However, unlike Azad, the two did not have high tension, so they just stood still.

"I'll be back after finishing it, so please play around there."

Would it be a misunderstanding to hear Azad's voice yelling, 'What kind of playhouse are you having when you're all grown up!'?

Jamie approached Irina, who was sitting in the room blankly.

And he gave it to me with words.

"You've been through a lot."

" Did the priest know everything?"

Irina looked at Jamie and asked in a weak voice.

"Rather than knowing, I knew. That's why I led you here.

i See.

Saying that, Irina sighed softly.

She hugged her knees and smiled bitterly.

"I feel like I'm ruined."

"What are you talking about?"

"Actually, I didn't really feel it until recently. The fact that I, the hostess of one of the most powerful families in the Siltair Kingdom, live in a house that seems to collapse. I thought it was just a dream, I would wake up from this nightmare after sleeping... I felt it today."

wife.

"Sir Bianca. It must have been painful Dreaming of a future that will never come true in a nightmare that cannot be compared to others... It must have been like hell, where you have to do things you don't want to."

" ."

"But it is. It was a little embarrassing. Sir Bianca must have lived in pain incomparable to mine, at least he was there during that time. At least he must have been holding on to the pain of that time. At least they wouldn't have known about the collapse of the family, the death of all the family members, and the rise of a terrible enemy to the throne.

Irina, who comforted Bianca until the very end, was also a victim in the end.

She too had a terrible time, and the terrible time is not over yet.

The body is sick, and the children are still young.

The woman who didn't get a drop of water on her hand had to do anything to survive, even if she didn't want to.

"Will it be easier when I die?"

"Death is ."

Jamie looked up at the sky.

There were so many stars that filled the sky as if they were going to fall to the ground at any moment.

"Death is just futile. There's nothing left. Only regret will follow you to the end."

"You speak as if you had experienced it."

What. I have experienced something similar."

"Is that so?"

There was nothing else to comfort me.

If I told her it was okay here, it would be deception.

Above all, he did not have such a broad personality.

Jamie scratched his head for nothing, then turned to the sound of rustling in the next room.

Then the door swung open and the two children leaning against the door fell into the room.

Ahh!

Ouch!

Phoebe and Fiona laughed awkwardly when they realized that Irina and Jamie were looking at them while rubbing the area they had fallen over.

Hehe I didn't mean to eavesdrop... ."

"Wow, I didn't mean to eavesdrop!"

Unlike his older brother, his younger brother had a bold personality no matter how he looked at it.

Jamie smiled and took a step back.

Then the children who had been standing with their eyes on them began to move cautiously towards my mother.

Mom ."

"Mom ."

Irina looked at the two children and raised her arms without saying a word. Then the two children burst into tears and dug into their mother's arms.

"Wow! You can't die! Do not die!"

"Ugh! Don't go mama! Do not go!"

Irina smiled faintly and gently stroked the hair of her son and daughter.

"Mom, where are you going? Where are you going to leave my bastards?"

"Hey Saying that you are going to die is forbidden again."

"It's forbidden!"

"Yes, yes. I won't say anything like that I'm going to die again.

Jamie looked at them and turned away without a word.

There was nothing more to do here.

For now, we'll make time for family, and we'll come back later to talk.

If you didn't know the story, you wouldn't be able to tolerate staying in such a shabby house.

Then I found a necklace that fell on the floor.

It was the black necklace Bianca was wearing.

Hmm.

Jamie stared at the necklace and tucked it into her arms.

So, I moved to the place where the three of us were.

* * *

"Whoa! If you had just told me, I would have stayed still, so why are you shutting your voice?!"

As expected, Azad raised his voice as if arguing as soon as the silence magic had dissipated.

It was quickly subdued with honey chestnuts.

Ashtar shook his head as he looked at Azad who had collapsed and fainted.

"Then why do you open it ."

He tapped Azad's head with his toe, but there was no reaction.

Jamie's honey chestnut contained a terrifying destructive power that made even the undead faint.

Ashtar vowed never to flirt.

Liza left those two behind and told Jamie.

"The problem seems to have been resolved."

"It was a heartbreaking story."

Is that so.

"You suffered."

"It's hard."

Liza shook her head, and Jamie smirked and tapped him on the shoulder.

"Go back and get some rest. I have more work to do."

Okay. Ashtar. Get Azad."

Damn it. Like this pathetic senior."

Ashtar sighed and carried Azad, who had fallen to the floor, on his shoulders.

When Jamie opened the gate to the station, the two bowed their heads and went inside.

Jamie counter-summoned the door and went deep into the woods.

There, Jamie took out Bianca's necklace that she had kept in her arms.

and spoke

"I thought I was going to ascend ."

Jamie suddenly talks to the necklace.

Anyone who didn't know would see him as a madman, but it was impossible to avoid the eyes of the greatest warlock in history.

The necklace began to tremble, and purple-black mana began to swell.

It slowly took shape and appeared opposite Jamie.

It was Bianca with a calmer atmosphere than before.

There were still traces of tears in his eyes.

"The undead are in tears. You are a strange individual in many ways."

Bianca looked at Jamie without a word.

Thought she had ascended from Irina's arms to the side of her comrade, she hid herself in a necklace pretending to have ascended.

I didn't know the reason, so I decided to find out from now on.

"Why are you left in this world? Wasn't all the regrets gone?

"Because there is still work to be done. I wanted to give him some peace of mind, so I pretended to be like that."

"I mean, you cared."

"Because I am not good for him in many ways. I became a body like this... ."

She made a bitter expression as she checked her condition.

Since she was an honorable knight, she became an undead, so it was understandable.

"So what should I do, is it revenge?"

Yes. My enemies will still be laughing hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha I will show them the same hell. Only then will I be able to see my colleagues who left first. I Because I failed once."

He was unable to fulfill the command given by the leader, and was attacked by the enemy and lost his life.

In the process, the only enemy, the Crown Prince, was also killed.

This was nothing more than making the sacrifices of his colleagues into dog death.

Bianca clenched her fists.

"With this power, I can even try."

She originally belonged to the strong side, but as she became a Death Knight, she acquired a stronger power.

In addition to that, he had the undead leadership at the level of a necromancer, so he could even start a war if he wanted to.

But Jamie knew how foolish the idea was.

It was very difficult for the undead to work freely in this land.

'It's acceptable to have survived so far.'

There were almost no undead in this land ruled by the 12 gods.

Even if there were, they were only occasionally found in areas where the 12 gods were almost neglected.

But what would happen if the Death Knight appeared with the undead corps?

Far from attacking the Siltair Kingdom, they will be quickly subjugated by the paladins dispatched from each denomination.

"That would be dog death."

"You won't know unless you try. I am grateful to you. Even though he's a warlock, thanks to him, he was able to come to his senses.

"You seem to be unaware of your situation right now."

Does not matter. If only my sword can be pierced into the heart of the king, then whatever happens."

Jamie folded her arms and took a deep breath.

She was an irresistible woman.

In fact, looking into her past, I noticed to some extent that she was a fairly knowledgeable yangban.

Jamie doesn't make any proposals to anyone, especially the undead.

It was enough to surrender by force.

Bianca is different. She is not an ordinary undead, but a unique case that perfectly digests her own power.

To be honest, I didn't want to let the dog die.

So it was suggested.

"Come under me. Then I will give you revenge. This is a contract."

Bianca looked at him without saying a word.
