Chapter 504

Episode 504 Reunion with Soonbok (1)

Seongguk received a letter from the Hafman Company.

Eclay, who was opening the letter, said ‘ha’ and laughed.

“It seems that becoming the top of the continent is not only because of borrowing the ability of others.”

Although it is a holy kingdom that has tilted due to the disappearance of divine power, its name has not yet been defeated by other kingdoms.

Eclay was a little taken aback when Hafman, who was clearly aware of it better than anyone else, made such a bold proposal.

The high priest asked cautiously.

“What are you doing? His Holiness the Pope.”

“Read it.”

When I handed over the luxurious parchment, the high priest carefully accepted it.

He looked at the parchment, read it again and again, and then his hands trembled.

“Oh, how reckless! Doesn’t this mean that you will buy all the Merchant Merchants of the Holy Kingdom! A mere merchant who doesn’t even know the subject...!”

The high priest seemed like he was going to lead his troops and subdue the top half of the halfman right now.

Eclay, with a slight smile on his lips, shook his hand to dissuade him.

“Leave it. It seems that our situation is already clear. You know like looking into the palm of your hand that you won’t be able to refuse. It must have been with this thought from the beginning that the corps grew in size.”

For some reason, it was questionable that the half-man guild supported their corps from long ago.

No matter how much the saint is in Taesangdanju, the actual command authority is all in Hafman.

What the hell are you thinking about giving so generously?

Isn’t it absurdly kind to call it a merchant?

I thought so, but to think it would come back like this.

‘...Halfman. He’s a character that can’t be ignored.’

Eclay rose from his seat.

“Our upper class is never that cheap. Accept the greetings from the half-man top. We should start haggling.”

Even if you want to buy the top, it is useless if the price is expensive.

We will see if only Harp, who is good at plotting, is good at bargaining.

* * *

As soon as it seemed that his words had been safely delivered to the Holy Kingdom, only Harpman, who was sitting in the office, burst into laughter.

“Hahahaha! You can clearly see how the old ogre’s face has changed.”

Only the branch manager was concerned about his words, which could not be found anywhere.

“If His Holiness the Pope had heard, he would have run away right away.”

Halfman clicked his tongue at him, who was conscious of his gaze as he looked around the extension.

“Tsk tsk. How can you do anything big with that level of courage? Taesangdanju also said. It’s the law to curse the emperor when he’s not looking.”

“Since Taesangdanju had that much power, he was able to do it. Isn’t the sweetheart all you have is money?”

“Money is power and power. see Doesn’t the old man of Seongguk die at my words! Hahahaha!”

Of course, in the current situation, it is.

Because there was a lot of money and a lot of goods, even that high-ranking kingdom did not dare to disobey the words of Danju.

The ability to foresee the future was admirable, but the sobriety that started to be used when it was important was, in a way, truly vicious.

“The Holy Kingdom has requested the dispatch of personnel from the upper tier. Probably to bargain. What do you plan to do?”

Halfman smiled sinisterly at the branch manager’s question.

“Heh heh. First of all, I need to burn some soy sauce. Now the other side is full of thoughts of profiting from the bargain. Even if a little more time passes, that kind of thought will go into it. It’s not too late even if we start bargaining slowly then.”

Not only his unique sinister laughter and way of speaking, but now even his thoughts seemed to be gradually resembling Taesangdanju.

“Should Seongguk just wait and see? It might put pressure on you.”

“Anyway, the loss is with us. That much can only be seen as an old ogre getting angry.”

I got goosebumps at the thought of being the Pope’s antagonist.

The branch manager, who quickly erased the blasphemous thoughts from his head, continued.

“We are also short of manpower. Prolonging time can be toxic to each other.”

* * *

After filling up the mana in the stone chamber and returning full, Ray heard unexpected news as soon as he arrived.

“Does the poison still remain?”

“yes. It’s okay around here, but it’s full of poison if you go a little further forward.”

Ray tilted his head.

Both stone chambers are in a state of purification.

Although there may still be some poison left, compared to before, it is nothing more than the blood of a bird’s feet, so there is no way it will spread through the air.

Ray, noticing that the Goblin Queen was nervous for a moment, asked calmly.

“How much food do you have left to eat?”

“We can’t starve the baby goblins, so at most two days. Originally, it lasted for three days, but because it was poisoned...”

“Umm.”

Ray thought for a moment, then nodded.

“Then I’ll have to get him.”

The goblin queen tilted her head at his tone, as if she were going to get food right away.

“yes?”

Where are you?

Before he could even ask behind his back, Ray carried the leather backpack as it was on his back.

If he had the current level of mana, he could no longer compete with him.

There were four more days until the structure of the dungeon changed, so going downstairs and getting food was a piece of cake.

As the goblins stare blankly at him, he says with a grin.

“I will be back within the day.”

Where would you like to go in just one day?

Before the doubts had gone, Ray left the residence.

The goblins just blankly stared at his back.

* * *

For the first time in a while, Ray had a lot of mana in his body.

The body is light in comparison to the previous one.

Every time I hit the ground, I swiped through the hallways, and I felt refreshed.

After walking only a few times, the goblin dwelling had already disappeared into the distance.

By the time I went quite far.

I could feel the venom piercing my skin.

“Is this the place the Queen was talking about?”

It was certainly beyond the level of being poisonous.

It was a poison so strong that if it was a fairly large monster, it would poison you just by breathing it.

Looking at the current poison, it seemed that there was another stone chamber beyond this.

well it went better

The last words of the girl who was already a stone statue bothered me.

If there were several more stone chambers, he might be able to find out information about them.

I wanted to investigate right now, but it’s not the time yet.

“First, solve the food problem...”

Then...

Ray moved mana from inside his body.

Wriggling –

I feel that the mana is crouching.

If this is enough, it seems to be enough to call for submission.

If he had lived for a long time, he would surely know something about this dungeon.
