075 – Parmas’ greed causes an incident # 1

Parmas was, by all accounts, a noble man.

He never lost his composure in any situation.

However, he felt like he had just drunk the most bitter liquor in his nearly 70 years of life.

My stomach was churning, my intestines felt like they were being torn apart, cold sweat ran down my back, itchy under my skin, and my forehead was itchy.

‘Hyde, you bastard! How dare you humiliate me like this!?’

Parmas is old.

He was corrected to the point where he was still on active duty, but it was clear that he was old.

The old man actually didn’t have much greed.

He had taken a vow of chastity, had no family, and almost all of his relatives were dead.

The ambition and passion of his youth were unnecessary to him as he grew older.

‘I just had to relax, close my eyes and wait for the day to go to heaven! If I sleep comfortably like this, people will praise me for generations to come!’

What mattered to old Parmas now was honor and reputation.

People leave their names behind when they die.

Parmas wanted to leave a mark, and it was actually going to happen that way.

‘Is this Hyde guy humiliating me? You bastard! ‘You damned bastard!’

The wise knight Parmas.

If the story spread that he had been humiliated by a young kid, it would be a stain on his life.

If Parmas dies like this, people will remember him as a man who lost to a brat!

“Ugh!”

Parmas couldn’t bear that fact.

Finally, Parmas burst out bleeding in unbearable anger and lost consciousness.

His lifespan had been shortened by 10 years due to the mental stress just now.

“You, Hyde!”

When he came to his senses again from a nightmare, he was lying alone in a dark room.

I was very upset and my head hurt.

“Hyde, I will never forgive that man!”

Zech─.

Parmas got up from his seat and at some point took out something that had been well hidden in his pants pocket.

It was a small coin purse.

What was inside was not a coin, but a small bead.

‘If you swallow this, there will be no turning back in many ways.’

Parmas hesitated for a moment, looking at the orange orb in his hand.

Old age passed without greed.

Never would he have thought that someone who would ignite his flame would appear in the shadows.

“Gangyok. Show me that power.”

Parmas swallowed the orb he got when he defeated Grid, the Great Sin of Greed, into his stomach.

Jibo (至寶), who gave the blind hunchback the name ‘Jew of Great Sin’.

The reason we did not report this to Barakhan or return it was because of our own judgment that this item was so dangerous and amazing that it should not be known to the world.

‘It’s a dangerous item.’

However, if someone as wise and intelligent as yourself uses it in the right place—.

“He will try to take revenge.”

I sat in my bedroom, lost in thought.

Parmas, because he rushed out on his own and hit himself with a whip, causing blood to squirt and faint.

My fault here was definitely close to zero.

No, I am completely pure and innocent.

However, small people like Parmas tended to blame others for their mistakes, and it was clear that they were blaming me.

Are you trying to blame others for your own mistakes?

What a foolish person.

If so, they will definitely try to harm me.

Now that things were like this, the answer was to get Parmas to leave this territory quickly.

“Psyche, when do you think the envoy to take Sloth, the Seat of Sin, to Saint Barakhan will arrive at this Agarpe territory?”

I asked Psyche, who was lying face down on the bed.

Psyche was reading my book, Village of the Alley Nymphs, and seemed very absorbed.

“Psyche?”

“Yes? Hyde, what did you just say? I couldn’t stop listening to your book because it was so interesting! It’s really warm content. Nymphs suddenly appear and everyday life becomes noisy… !”

It was like that.

The village of back-alley nymphs, volumes 4 and 5, were about a lot of nymphs appearing and coming together as one and becoming companions.

The theme is that although it is a difficult and difficult world, like-minded people come together and live beautifully.

Indeed, once you reach the level of Psyche, you can understand its deep meaning.

“I wish I had a nymph friend this pure and cute. How much fun would it be if you had fun chatting next to me every day?”

If you have a nymph friend, you already have one.

Psyche, I am the model of that nymph next to you.

widely-.

Psyche closed the book and stretched.

I told her that.

“Psyche, Lord Parmas will probably try to kill me soon.”

Psyche was really startled by my words.

“Yes? Kill me? What does that mean… !?”

“Lord Parmas is not a man who can forget humiliation. Even if you receive 1 damage from others, you are a small person who will treat you harshly and return 100 damage as if you had received 10 damage.”

Because I was a big person more than anyone else, I knew the feelings of small people well.

Parmas was the type of person who would go crazy if someone did the slightest bit of wrong to him.

I’m sure he will go on a rampage to seek revenge.

Because of my poor memory, I will forget all the good things others have done for me, and I will not forget the bad things I have done until the day I die.

I know those guys better than anyone else.

That’s because I am a big person who knows the feelings of a small person well!

“No matter what, I wonder if Lord Parmas will try to kill you in this Agarpe territory… .”

“Psyche, when have you ever seen me tell a lie? Didn’t they capture Taeman’s citadel within 15 days and even capture Agileth? I always tell the truth.”

I don’t lie.

He is a man you can trust more than anyone else.

And Psyche was also convinced by my opinion.

“Then Hyde, I will protect you!”

I see that Psyche is indeed going to protect me.

But that didn’t make me feel safe.

Parmas has a lot of knowledge.

They could poison me or fake my death as an accident without Psyche having time to do anything.

So what should I do to prevent this?

The answer was simple.

I had to do it first.

Parmas, a member of the Seven Knights.

In many ways, I need to get this inspiration out of my sight.

forever!

I have two methods in mind.

With that feeling, time passed and the next day arrived.

I noticed a strange sight in the garden this morning.

“Ha! hot! Haaap!”

Someone was swinging a sword at a scarecrow in a corner of the garden.

He was half-shirtless and his muscles were bulging, making him look very powerful.

Was there a man like this in the estate?

A newly hired knight by the Agarpe family?

Soon Count Dovan, who was on his morning patrol, was surprised.

“… No way! Lord Parmas!? Are you by any chance Lord Parmas!?”

At Doban’s question, the man stopped his sword.

He smiled brightly, but many of the wrinkles on his face had disappeared, and it was easy to believe that he was in his 40s.

Have you had any rejuvenation?

Even his once gray hair had turned a healthy scarlet color.

Can a person change so much overnight?

“Is that you? How did this happen! Is it a miracle?”

Dovan was astonished as if he could not believe his own eyes when he saw Parmas suddenly become younger.

However, I wasn’t that surprised.

It’s quite possible.

A person is struck by lightning indoors and falls into a strange world, and in that strange world, he obtains the Holy Grail and returns to the past 5 years ago.

It could be considered a miracle.

It’s not a big deal for people to get younger.

But miracles only come to faithful people like me.

In the case of Parmas, it would not be a miracle but an evil trick.

“… Lord Parmas, did you eat something you shouldn’t? If so, it would be better to spit it out now. If a baboon gets greedy to imitate a stork, its crotch will be torn.”

“What? I don’t know what you’re talking about. It’s a very refreshing morning. I feel like I’m about 30 years younger! I feel like I can do anything. Anything! Was the world this clear!”

Kuuuk-.

It was Parmas clenching his fist.

“It’s a miracle.”

“Can a person become this young?”

“Did you get whipped by Lord Hyde?”

When people are amazed and amazed one by one -.

I snorted with laughter.

In the end, it looks like he ate the tip of the strong desire he was holding in his arms, right?

The eldest of the Seven Knights cannot set an example, but he falls into the abyss of mortal sin due to his ugly greed.

It was something truly unimaginable to a godly person like me.

Parmas.

He got younger day by day.

Two days since he showed remarkable rejuvenation.

His face, which looked like he was in his 40s, was further rejuvenated and made him look like he was in his early 30s.

His eyes were as sharp as a snake, and his hair was a fiery scarlet.

His gait was full of the proud spirit of a knight in his prime, and he was full of confidence in everything he did.

“The weather is very nice! Our peers love this weather!”

His speaking style, which was like that of an old man, also changed to that of a young person.

Does a person’s mental age ultimately follow their ‘physical age’?

He became strong enough to chew a cow to its bones every day by himself, and also drank an oak barrel of wine.

“sum! Haaa! Haaaap!”

Parmas’ main daily routine was swinging his sword in the training range. His sword skills were sharp and full of power.

It was as if he was testing out what his younger body could do.

“It’s boring to deal with a scarecrow every time. Miss Psyche, can you be my partner? I think I can give you enough guidance now.”

“No. It’s okay.”

Psyche politely declined.

But I thought it was a good opportunity.

“Psyche, let’s spar.”

I wanted to find out how good Parmas is right now.

At my words, Psyche immediately picked up the great sword Agarpe.

“Then, I will learn a lesson from Lord Parmas.”

Chang, Chae Aeng-!

Soon, a sword sparring took place between Psyche, who was holding a huge sword, and the younger Parmas.

Milione stuck out her tongue as she looked at that scene.

“What on earth happened? I don’t know how people can change in a few days. I heard there is a saying in the Onan region called anti-ro meeting. Is that it? What do you think about Hyde?”

Instead of answering Milione, I remained silent and lost in thought.

“Hyde, what do you think!”

“I think it’s an affair.”

“Why the affair? What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

The two men and women, with their faces painted red, are holding sticks and violently hitting and falling, creating sparks.

I thought, “Isn’t this a complete affair?”

After all, it would be better to make it stop!

“Psyche, I think that’s enough!”

We fully understand Parmas’ skills.

A skill that rivals Psyche.

It seemed like he had regained his prime strength.

Milione said.

“Anyway, I don’t like it. Parmas: After that old man changed like that, his gaze became explicit. Are you staring at my legs or chest? Well, what kind of man could resist my charm?”

I left Milione, who was talking nonsense, aside and watched Parmas. His gaze was blatantly scanning Psyche, who had just swung her sword and was panting.

You bastard!

I guess it’s nice to look at Milione!

But I can’t allow you to look at my wife, Psyche, like that!

Sanctions will be needed.

I spoke to Parmas.

“Lord Parmas, you look full of blood.”

“Isn’t it the grace of the Lord? He gave me a miracle to use me for something greater.”

I like your grace -.

This old man lied so shamelessly?

One of the people I hate the most is a liar.

I said as if nothing had happened.

“Then how about going hunting with me tomorrow?”

Parmas looked at me.

His younger gaze was like that of a snake.

“Good.”

It was good.

You are already caught in my trap.
