Episode 448 We Will Be Blessed (5)

“If that’s the case, we have to somehow make time to go.”



“I’m off duty in the evenings because I’m on patrol right now. “I don’t think it would be difficult to ask permission.”

What kind of party is this in these turbulent times? I thought I might hear something like that. One by one, they kicked my thoughts aside and accepted me with lively faces.

It wasn’t until I spoke to them that my nervous mind eased.

“Since we are leaving tomorrow, there will be no alcohol.”

“Haha, we don’t enjoy drinking anyway, so it’s okay.”

“Alcohol... is better without it.”

I feel like Daniel is looking at me with a strange gaze, but it probably doesn’t matter. I walked along as they patrolled and glanced up at the sky.

“It’s a new feeling.”

“...?”

“Didn’t you and I have a very... rough relationship at first?”

Because of the overlapping misunderstandings, things got really ugly. Although it turned out that some of them were not misunderstandings in the end.

“Oh, that’s right. “At that time, I really didn’t know it would turn out like this.”

“What. I heard you slapped me before. “Did you really do that?”

“okay. No, if you think about it again, it’s not even a slap in the face. “It wouldn’t have been surprising if he had been stabbed.”

“It wasn’t that neat.”

Hmm. really? I looked at Daniel secretly. If not him, who was the one who brandished the knife during their first meeting? Was it Daniel 2?

“...Keuhum!”

Daniel cleared his throat with a wide face, as if something had occurred to him when I looked at him. The thing that was most exciting about its appearance was, of course, Maximoyak.

“Haha! “It looks like he was swinging a real sword.”

“Well, aren’t the troubles I have really noticeable? “Unless we hear about it in advance, we can’t help but react like that.”

“Uh... I don’t want to admit it, but I can’t deny it either. “I would have reached for my weapon if Danny hadn’t told me to.”

“Maxi.”

“And... I guess that goes for Kyeong as well, right? We’re probably not the only ones who feel uncomfortable. “I have nothing but respect for your patience.”

Daniel seemed to notice that Maxie’s words were a bit rude. However, I quietly listened to what followed. Proudness filled me before shame.

“I’m glad you said that.”

If I hadn’t been able to endure my discomfort with divine power, this moment wouldn’t have come. I felt pleasure again at that and closed my eyes slightly.

I could feel the cold wind passing through my hair.

“When I go back to my hometown, I will sometimes think of the street food I ate with you.”

Because it was that delicious... and fun.

“...It’s just an honor.”

“I will remember the passage of time for a long time.”

I opened my eyes to their words and folded the end down.

“I’ll see you in the evening.”

“yes.”

“yep.”

ha. A refreshing wind blew.

“You’re gone.”

“I know.”

Meanwhile, Daniel paused for a moment, looking at the adventurer’s back as he walked away. I was aware that I was on patrol, but I couldn’t bear to take my foot off the spot.

“hmm. When everything is over, there might be a banquet or festival. Does that mean you have no intention of participating? “Seeing you say hello in advance like this.”

“well.”

Even though he may feel burdened by his personality, he will not refuse.

So did he die here? That means there are no blood stains or signs of resistance.

“Even an old man would not have wanted to die so gently...”

However, the world seen through his eyes was very different from the universal image he knew.

The old man’s footsteps stopped after three steps into the tent, and the last trace of him left without much disturbance. Even though he had overpowered his opponent with overwhelming force, it was a sight that was completely unconvincing.

“What are you really doing?”

What is this bastard doing that eats people without a trace? Did you absorb it through your entire body like slime and digest it?

“...a slime that looks like a human makes me gag.”

But other than that, nothing is explained. Deathbringer stood up, scratching his head. Since I found traces of the suspected culprit, I decided to follow him.

Swish.

He rolled the sword in his hand to prevent it from freezing. At that sight, people all over the alley rolled their eyes and walked away, but it wasn’t anything to worry about.

After all, would a guy who eats people get away with this? If you don’t back down, it’s worth doubting, and if you do, you can stop doubting.

Deathbringer thought so and continued to follow the footsteps.

“ah.”

Until the footsteps lead to a blocked alley.

“Oh shit. “It’s really sick.”

He quickly entered the closed alley and looked for other traces. One trace had suddenly disappeared from the alley wall. There were no signs that it had climbed up the wall and onto the roof of the building.

“Ah...”

I went up to the roof just in case, but nothing changed. Deathbringer narrowed his eyes as he looked at the traces that were not visible at all.

In order to leave no traces like this, you have to be familiar with this area, have a lot of experience, or have great abilities... I don’t know what it’s like here. Seeing as how he knows he needs to cover up, he seems to have at least some intelligence.

“There’s no easy way, really.”

In the end, instead of looking for clues, he started looking at the connected roofs to deduce which direction he would take if he were to run away.

This took a lot of effort and could have been a waste of time if I had not done so, but I couldn’t bear to let it go, even if it was disappointing. Deathbringer’s keen eyes imagined the dark surroundings.

“Probably not, because the left leads to the main road. Go back the way you came? “This isn’t a very attractive option either.”

It doesn’t set up an area or use criteria to select its prey. If it was indiscriminate hunting, if it was indiscriminate and clever, it was a very smart choice.

“I don’t think they would have gone there, especially since it’s a brothel...”

That’s because people don’t disappear from one area at the same time, so isn’t everyone just ignoring it, thinking ‘It’s just one person who went there’?

The fact that the people who disappeared were from back alleys where it would not be strange to disappear at any time, and that they were the only ones left out without any affiliation, also contributed to the insensitivity.

“Then is it this way?”

So he never chooses his prey without thinking. We review and review endlessly to find only those who will not be caught even if we eat them.

“Please take it right. “Hit-and-run is an emissary.”

With that in mind, he quickly jumped from building to building in search of the best hunting spot. At least his prediction that there would be few people coming and going was correct, as the gloomy atmosphere of the street welcomed him.

In the back alleys, power districts were located one by one, but in between, it was an alley where ordinary people or outcasts lived.

“Fuck, start fighting in broad daylight!”

“What are you again?”

“Don’t mind our business!”

“If you don’t want to be interfered with, you can do it in the alley over there! Don’t you think you’ll hear that shit in front of the inn? yes?”

But why is there a familiar voice?

“Oh, the northern bastards do nothing but punch on empty days? “Should we really move the inn?”

Deathbringer heard a voice coming from the building right next to the roof he stepped on, so he sneaked over to it. Then he hung his feet on the eaves and hung his body upside down.

The man who was closing the wooden window with a squeak made eye contact with him through the window.

“Wow, damn it!!”

“Why is Nari Windhand here again?”

“No no no!!”

It was the wind hand.
