100 – Hyde! Murdered by heretics!? # 4

Flashing, gurgling!

“Huh!”

The man stood up out of breath the moment the thunder struck.

The one-eyed woman lying next to the man gently rubbed his shoulder with a thin finger.

“Viscount. Why are you doing this? To wake up startled by the sound of thunder. The Viscount Corpse, who once commanded the battlefield, is startled by the sound of thunder?”

“Ha, hehehe-. Ultima. I had that nightmare again. I dreamed that men were standing at the door and pounding on the door of our mansion! Today I even tried to open the door with a rattle!”

Viscount Coffs.

He’s been having nightmares for the past few days.

At first, it was a dream of a group of strange men approaching from afar.

The more I dreamed, the more the monsters came closer to me.

“The more I sleep, the closer they come to me! This time, he knocked on the door and tried to force his way into my house! Check it! I wonder if someone broke in!”

Sze-.

It was the Viscount who stood up and shouted at the soldiers.

The Viscount was afraid.

In this sodomy, even a viscount with a noble title could die without anyone knowing.

This city was truly chaos.

Therefore, the Viscount thought that the dreams he had every day were like ‘precognitive dreams.’

“Next time I have this nightmare, they will definitely come into the house! What are you trying to do by capturing me? uh? What will happen to me if I get caught by those guys!?”

The Viscount couldn’t bear it because he was afraid of the dreams that continued.

Sze-.

Ultima, the maid who embraces the viscount.

“Viscount. A dream is just a dream. Where is that dignified figure from when you negotiated with Murderer, the top executive of “Psychos”? It’s a pity that you can’t listen like this-.”

Sze-.

The head maid and the Viscount rolled around on the bed.

However, even sleeping with the head maid, who was so attractive, could not soothe Viscount Copps’s shocked heart.

He wanted to interpret why he had nightmares every day and what these dreams were trying to say.

‘The reason I was able to survive from the war 20 years ago until now was because I didn’t think my dreams were in vain. This dream is so ominous! I can’t believe I’m having such ominous dreams every day… !’

a few days ago.

It was a dream I had when a man who said he was a priest came to me and started talking about something.

He said to himself, “the dream will become violent.” And indeed, from then on, the Viscount was having nightmares every day.

“How did he introduce himself? Is there anything known about him? If you have any newspapers from the outside world, please bring them!”

Sze-.

The head maid, Ultima, brought newspapers for the viscount, who was shaking.

Viscount Copps was not interested in what was going on in the outside world, but when he saw what was written in the newspaper, he frowned.

“ Pope Gregory’s daughter was sentenced to a “repentance pilgrimage”? He was a complete madman on the topic of a bronze plate priest! If I had known he was this crazy, I wouldn’t have beaten him up so badly and kicked him out!”

suddenly-.

The Viscount wondered if this crazy priest had placed a curse on him.

What if this repentant priest really cursed like the prophets in the Bible?

“Yes! curse! There must be a curse on me! Ultima! Bring those who know about the curse from this sodomy! right now! Right Now! Hehe, you idiot. Are you putting a curse on me, the ruler of this sodomy?”

In this sodomy, there were all kinds of cults, heretics, and heretics who dealt with curses and ghosts.

They brought the Viscount enormous amounts of gold, women, and all kinds of strange mysteries, and the Viscount tolerated their actions.

Give and take.

Using that relationship, the Viscount was able to bring in a witch doctor who was active late in the morning.

“Viscount. My name is Bokor, the witch doctor of Walpurgis. It’s not something to brag about, but I am one of the five pillars of the Witch Council.”

It was a witch who smiled, showing off her black teeth.

She was a person with black skin and strangely braided hair.

Whoosh-.

He was a man with a live snake wrapped around his waist and elaborately braided skull decorations all over his body. The Viscount felt very intimidated by his suspicious and flashy appearance.

‘Look at the goosebumps growing on my back. This guy. It’s real. My intuition has never been wrong. That’s why I was able to survive until now!’

Viscount Copes of Sodomy had a keen eye for recognizing the dangers of heretics.

This witch doctor, Bokor, brought in by the maid Ultima, was a person who could be called ‘real’.

Probably one of the five great witches of the Witch Council.

“Witch Doctor Bokor. Can you tell if there is a curse on me?”

“Just wait. Tour Bojak-! Tahayiyat-!”

Sze-.

Bokor stuck his hand into the mouth of the toad hanging on his belt and took out a strange-looking envelope from inside.

Bokor sprinkles the powder contained in the small bag onto his hand and blows it away.

Soon the Viscount let out a cough.

“Ugh, what are you doing!”

“There is no curse on the Viscount’s body.”

“What? what? Then why am I having a nightmare!”

“Dreams are a formless piece of land and a symbol of the unconscious. I think the Viscount is having nightmares due to too much mental fatigue.”

Is that really true?

The Viscount couldn’t believe it.

I’m having nightmares due to mental fatigue.

Soon the head maid, Ultima, spoke.

“Viscount. Bokor is the woman in sodomy who knows most about the curse. If there is no such bokor, there is no curse.”

Sze-.

Bokor bowed his head with a grace that seemed incongruous to his appearance.

“In my opinion, there is no such thing as a curse on the Viscount. At least that’s how I see it. But if you’re still scared, how about eliminating the ‘culprit’?”

“Removing the main culprit?”

“Kill that priest Hyde. There is no way more effective than this to break the curse. If you kill Priest Hyde, the Viscount will be able to have a peaceful night.”

I thought it was a ridiculous story.

If you kill the loudest priest in the church, even if you are a sodomy viscount, you will not be able to avoid trouble.

If the Catholic Church sent troops using that as an excuse, it would be a headache.

‘It’s enough for Pope Gregory to do something like that. He’s probably planning to send me the priest who shamed his daughter so I can kill him and use that as an excuse to invade sodomy!’

The Viscount had often encountered Gregory on the battlefield.

So I was confident that I had some knowledge of the despicable schemes that Gregory usually used.

Ultima, the head maid, laughed at the viscount.

“Isn’t there a lot of people who go missing every day in this sodomy? All you have to do is ‘deal with’ it appropriately and deal with the missing person. Aren’t the killers in “Psychos” good at things like that?”

Psychos.

If I asked them to take care of it, Hyde and the like would disappear without a trace.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to contact the “Gourmet Club”.

It looks like this priest, Hyde, will be resented by the nobles.

“That Bokor can take care of it. We witches also have a lot of grudges against Bronze Plate Priest Hyde. If you cut off his sheep and make it into a casting─.”

Hehehe, the smiling curse witch Bokor.

The Viscount’s anxiety still did not go away.

“Ultima, how about asking the Blood Crusade for a favor? Aren’t they the most destructive and loud in sodomy right now? Looking at the newspaper, it looks like they also have a grudge against Hyde?”

“Viscount. They are idiots who cannot be controlled and communicate with each other. Or leave it to me. I will go to Hyde’s bedroom and kill him. I know the inn he’s staying at, so it won’t take more than an hour.”

Sze-.

Ultima wore black gloves.

At the end of these black gloves were very fine threads.

It can easily cut off a person’s neck.

“Ultima. Go.”

The Viscount entrusted the task to the woman he trusted most.

After the longest hour in the world…

Sze-.

Ultima returned to the Viscount with something in a sack.

Tuk, degurrr-.

The moment he saw a priest’s head lying on the floor in an open sack, the Viscount felt good.

“Good! It was nothing! Ultima! Announce the death of Priest Hyde. It would be perfect to say that the Blood Crusade guys killed him!”

Sze-.

The Viscount lay down on his bed feeling very comfortable.

There is no fear in myself, who uses heretics like limbs.

With that thought in mind, I was able to sleep comfortably for the first time in a while.

“Refreshing!”

A morning as refreshing as ever.

Viscount Corpse picked up the newspaper that Ultima seemed to have kept from the bedside.

“September 24th. Bronze Plate Priest Hyde is beheaded by the Blood Crusade!”

“The discoverer was Mr. S, the owner of the inn—”

“Very good. I didn’t even have any nightmares. Ultima! Prepare my breakfast! Ultima!”

The Viscount called the chief maid whom he only trusted.

But there was no answer.

Did he at least go to the bathroom?

Bang bang-.

At that time, someone knocked on the door of the Viscount’s bedroom.

“… … .”

The Viscount came to his senses from his half-asleep state.

Bang bang-.

Someone knocked on the door again.

Clunk, clank -.

Someone even tried to wrench the door open.

This time it wasn’t a dream.

“Who else? Are they soldiers? Who dares knock on the door at this hour?”

# # #

The day I visited Viscount Coffs.

I was very angry as I left the mansion.

The Viscount crossed a line.

To what extent did he cross the line to the point where he used violence against me!

“Me who has never been beaten by even Pope Gregory… !?”

How dare you disobey me, the prophet sent by God, and even resort to violence?

This was not a forgivable sin.

“Just a little scratch on my skin is enough to kill me. I kicked them all out before you got hit.”

Milione frowned.

He treated my beating as a ‘badass killing’.

I was angry.

“Hey! Look at this! You got a wound on the back of your hand!”

There was a Bible verse that said that even if you hate your brother in your heart, you are guilty of murder.

So what if you cut a fingernail mark on the back of a person’s hand and made it bleed?

This went beyond murder and was tantamount to trying to commit serial murder against me!

“And since this bastard is a small person, he will definitely try to get rid of me. I’m afraid of retaliation even though I did the wrong thing first!”

It was clear that if I stayed in sodomy like this, I would really die.

Like the people who disappear in this sodomy, they may be disposed of without even a rat or a bird knowing.

I had to come up with a way.

“Milione. I’m going to the bathroom for a moment.”

Sze-.

I pretended to go to the bathroom and took out the mask I had picked up earlier in “Heart of the Serpent” from my pocket.

The iron mask worn by the fake Rust.

When I saw that, several thoughts came to mind.

Jumble-jump-.

I headed straight for the snake’s heart.

underground church.

When people entered there, they were very surprised.

“Well, Rust is here!”

“Is it fake again?”

“Aaaa—!”

I screamed for about 5 minutes.

A shout out from my enormous lung capacity.

Those who heard it trembled.

“G, it’s real! Only Rust can do this! I, Hans, know! This is the real Rust!”

“Our prayers summoned Mr. Rust from hell to this world of Saba!”

“Geeek-!”

Sze-.

I looked around.

In my eyes, I saw a high-ranking member of Saikozu imprisoned.

When he saw me wearing the red cross mask, he began to tremble and seemed to sense his own death.

“You. How dare you impersonate me? There is a punishment prepared for you. This is the punishment of being a lewd hole.”

Sze-.

I grabbed the tail of the rat lying on the floor and lifted it up.

━Kkeongkeong… !

A rat barking like a dog.

It was a puppy.

“After placing a rat on a person’s boat and placing an iron bar on the boat to trap the rat-. Do you know what happens if you heat that iron bar with fire?”

“… … .”

The senior executives of Saikozu had a hard look on their faces.

Was it because he could imagine what would happen to him?

Or maybe it was because I couldn’t imagine it.

I decided to kindly explain.

“To avoid the scorching heat, rats try to burrow into the floor. Then, the rat that digs into the human stomach with its fingernails creates a large hole in the human body.”

It was a very barbaric and cruel punishment.

A real rat can dig into a person’s stomach?

“… Save me, save me!!! I just took orders! That’s why the Blood Crusade has been so harsh these days! I was just taking orders from the Murderer! The really bad ones are from Murder!!!”

“Really? good. Then I will suspend your judgment for a little while. Instead, there are conditions. You can imitate anyone with your strange disguise skills, right?”

There was a time when I wished I had a ‘stub’ for myself.

When there is Hyde, there is no Rust…

When there is Rust, there is no Hyde…

I figured it was only a matter of time before someone noticed this strange double life.

But what if two men, Hyde and Rust, could exist at the same time?

“Imitate Hyde.”

“Hyde? That’s easy! I am Hyde, the Bronze Plate Priest who is more pious and faithful than anyone else! And I’m such an idiot that I can’t even get over my wife Psyche’s legs!”

What are you doing?

I asked you to imitate Hyde. What kind of idiot are you doing?

However, Hans, the chief baptist, who was watching this, was impressed.

“Also… same. I thought it was you!”

“That’s right! Even we are impressed by his skill at deceiving!”

What’s the same?

They don’t look alike at all!

What the fuck.

anyway.

He disguised himself as Priest Hyde.

When I wore thin leather makeup and put on makeup, my face ended up looking exactly like mine. No, honestly, he’s a bit uglier than me.

“You will stay in this sodomy for a while.”

“You’re saying that you should commit all kinds of fraud and do bad things while working as Hyde to tarnish his reputation, right? That’s the procedure for joining the Crusade of My Blood! good! I’ll show you! That I am amazing!”

no-.

What if they use my face to scam people and do bad things?

“Just stay calm. Currently, Hyde is recuperating after being beaten by Lord Viscount Coffs. All you have to do is fill the gap. But don’t approach Milione. Just pray in your room, read the Bible, and repent. Otherwise, your identity may be discovered.”

Hyde, a priest who is more pious than anyone else.

There was no one who could truly portray him.

Milione would know that I, Hyde, are fake.

Therefore, it was right for Hyde to lock himself in his room.

# # #

Two days after that.

I found the decapitated head of the imposter who had played the fake Hyde on the bed.

“… … .”

I know this guy is fake, but-.

It felt strange, like I was standing in front of my dead body.

Sze-.

Hans said after touching the body.

“Seeing that there were no signs of resistance or signs of struggle, I went without pain. It looks like this sleeping guy’s neck was cut off with a sharp piece of thread.”

I tried to hide for a few days and observe the situation, but I never thought they would actually kill me.

Sze-.

I placed my hand on the chest of the decapitated corpse.

“It’s a pity.”

This guy died instead of me.

I guess I’ve spent the last few days pretending to be Hyde and leading a pious life, so I don’t think I’ll have fallen into hell.

Still killing people.

I thought it was a very terrible thing.

Looking at me like that, Hans asked.

“He was inherently evil, so wouldn’t this be enough to call him a benevolent person?”

“Second baptist Hans. listen carefully. Humans are sex. As humans have sex, humans are born, more humans have sex, and an infinite cycle of sin is formed. Therefore, keeping humans alive means maintaining the continuity of sex. In other words, one human being has countless possibilities of sex.”

Hans looked very shocked at what I said.

He bowed his face as if he was truly embarrassed and admitted his mistake to me.

“My thoughts were short!!!”

“Just being alive is a great sin. With this man’s death, the possibility of countless sex and lewd acts disappeared. I cannot tolerate this. Assemble all the Blood Crusades -.”

It was time to say that.

Rattling-.

The door opened and someone came in.

“Hey! Hyde! I’ve been calling for days and there’s no answer! It’s hard to stay locked up for a few days and act like you’ve got a fatal disease with just a scratch on the back of your hand. The door has finally opened.”

for a moment-.

Milione is coming in here now?

I looked at Hans.

I heard Milione is far away today?

Hans also seemed a little embarrassed.

Sze-.

Milione looked at me.

“You are Rust─.”

And then I looked at the decapitated body on the bed.

Milione seemed greatly shocked.

“… Hyde!”

Kuuk-.

Milione clenched his fist.

Milione wanted to say something, but no words seemed to come out.

“… you! Rust! Did you really kill Hyde? No, Rust told me there was meaning in keeping Hyde alive! You are a fake! Fake Rust!”

“I am not a fake. Milione. If you were the one who was raped by me, you would know better than anyone else that I was real. It’s not me who’s fake─.”

“No!!!! you!!! It’s fake!!!!”

Milione’s hair stood on end.

The thing soon let out a terrible scream, which could only mean one thing.

It’s extreme.

No words would make sense to Milione and Lars in this state.

I knew that better than anyone else.

“Hans. Go and take your troops and attack the Viscount’s mansion. Seize them, take them captive, and await My judgment. I will take charge of Milione Archibald here.”

“Yeah, but-. Master Rust, that woman’s spirit is unusual-!”

Hans looked worried.

I don’t know if Milione is Lars, but I guess he knew that he was unusual.

I said.

“The leader of the Blood Crusade is neither the angry Ras nor the evil Baptists, but Imom Rust. I’ll show you why I’m called the leader.”
