191. Flood

The 9th day, when Roy predicted that the Imperial personnel would arrive.

The slightly subdued atmosphere from breakfast continued until noon.

Still, it seemed like everyone was trying their best to create a friendly atmosphere.

Today, instead of doing any other training or anything, we all gathered together and sat on the first floor.

“Sister.”

As Juri’s right-hand man #2 appeared, tension began to rise at the dining table on the first floor.

Everyone’s eyes were on Number 2, and he scratched his head, looking slightly embarrassed, and reported to Juri.

“Uh.. The Empire will be arriving soon.”

“Where is the checkpoint?”

“Except for the people concentrated in the level transfer hall, the only place the security forces manage is the checkpoint, so it seems they will be welcoming Imperial personnel.”

“Yeah. What about the kids you sent near the hall?”

“They say there hasn’t been much change yet.”

It is said that since the city’s magic tower lord came and created a barrier, people who approach the hall are not very wary, so Juri’s subordinates and a few others are wandering around the area.

Since I can’t approach it, I feel like they’re just letting me hang out.

After No. 2 finished his report and stepped aside, I looked at Zion.

“Zion. How is the lukewarm condition?”

“Um… Progress is slow.”

Zion, whose eyes are covered in dark circles from staying up all night with Mila, yawns and answers.

They looked a little haggard as they were researching ways to remove the spell cast on Mion and even making artifacts and potions.

‘Hitomi’

[Mion Gresha]

[Cain] – 60%

[Caron Martinez] – 40%

Even if I look at Hitomi Kaho’s ratings, they’ve gone up, but I feel like it’s still sluggish.

Even with the naked eye, the magic circle engraved on the tongue of the lukewarm man had faded a little, but it still seemed to be effective.

[Zion Gresha]

[Cain] – 99%

[Revenge] – 1%

Shion’s Hitomi level, which seemed like it would reach 100% if she overcame her cat hair allergy, stopped at 99%.

I think it’s because he heard that Gaju was coming here.

This will be 100% if you beat that guy.

[Jury]

[Revenge] – 50%

[Cain] – 27%

[Tranquility] – 23%

In Julie’s case, there hasn’t been any physical contact since she got rid of the organization executive and gave her a blowjob while showering.

Rather, I felt a little disappointed because it felt like she was avoiding me, but I just had fun fucking my girls at the dorm, and her score went up a lot.

“I’m still not very good at magic, so I haven’t gained full control. It’s just a matter of time…”

“Sorry, sis…”

“Why are you sorry.”

Zion pats Mi-on’s shoulder as she bows her head in apology.

Still, Mion’s expression softened slightly at Zion’s comfort.

“Still, looking at the progress, I don’t think it will be too late.”

“Okay, then…”

Bam-!!

The door opens and Johnson rushes in.

Then he came near the chair where Julie was sitting and knelt down, putting his head on the floor.

thud-!!

“Master..Master.”

“What is it?”

“The meeting date has been set!”

“Really?”

“It’s midnight on November 1st.”

Today is October 29th, so the meeting is supposed to be held at midnight when the labyrinth resets.

“Do you think something will change then?”

“I guess so. You go.”

“Yes!”

Johnson happily answers Julie’s words and quickly leaves the accommodation.

“There’s nothing we can do right now. But we can take some time to prepare ourselves.”

Nothing much.

What the Imperial bastards were trying to do. How the nameless would move. It wasn’t an easy place for us to infiltrate just because we roasted a low-level guy like Johnson.

Instead, I think I’ve prepared as much as I can for the past ten days.

“Let’s do it as usual.”

I waited for that day to come, doing a slightly different routine.

****

A group of imperial personnel entered the city.

The security force, despite seeing the imperial flag, accepted the group without being flustered and soon guided them into the city.

The number of people flowing into the city remained the same as the incident two weeks ago, but the number of explorers staying in the city had decreased significantly, so there were almost no people who were curious or wondering.

A secret room located in a building near the tier transfer hall.

Four people wearing masks with long beaks and a blond middle-aged man in fancy attire were sitting at a round table.

And the door to the secret room was guarded by a police captain.

A blond middle-aged man. The Duke of Grecia looked around and opened his mouth.

“Would you wear such a stuffy mask even in a closed room like this?”

“….”

In the center of the table, a large man immediately takes off his mask.

Duke Grecia speaks with the corners of his mouth twitching at the sight of such a man.

It looked like he was suppressing his anger.

“Union Leader.”

A man with a flashy appearance and a huge build opens his eyes and looks straight at the peacock’s growling tone.

“Duke Gresha.”

“So. Why did you call me so urgently when you said you needed more time to try to swallow the empire a little more flexibly?”

“Ahem..!”

“I….!”

The masked figures around him were taken aback by the Duke’s questioning, but the union leader snorted and answered.

“The Lord of the Demons showed signs of waking up.”

“Is that a sign or not a complete awakening? Inefficient.”

A plot to vent one’s dissatisfaction with the union leader who called one despite the fact that Masin had not yet fully awakened.

“Peacock. Contrary to the previous evaluation that he was indifferent, it seems that his feelings have changed a lot recently.”

Blue magic rose from the closed room along with the voice of the old man sitting to the left of the union leader.

And the magic is so concentrated that it distorts the space around the peacock.

Wooo!!!

Even in the midst of all this, only a faint smile formed on the Duke’s lips.

“They are people from a labyrinth that only believe in status and show it. Even though they are old, there is no big difference between then and now. Topju.”

Taak-!

Ss …

As soon as the Duke snaps his fingers, the magic power of the magic tower dissipates in an instant.

“What..!”

And then the golden magic rushes to the tower lord and binds him.

Pitter-patter-!!!!

“Ugh..!!”

And the top lord collapses, his body twisted by the pressure of the magical power.

The moment the Duke was about to reach out to see Matapju lying on the table, spiting out blood and shaking with his whole body twisted.

“Recovery.”

Phew!!!!

As the man sitting to the right of the union leader muttered, the body of the tower owner, who had been twisted and spitting blood, returned to its original state.

And another man sitting next to the duke grabs the duke’s wrist.

Cheeek-!

The man’s hand holding the peacock’s hand turns a deep green and venom drips onto the table.

Part of the table melted along with the acrid smoke, but the golden magic that had been pressing down on the magic tower was already wrapped around the duke’s wrist, protecting him from the venom.

“Hey, Duke. Stop it, okay?”

The man with the poisoned hand takes off his mask while pressuring the duke with harsh words.

He was a man with wavy green hair and a face covered in scars and tattoos.

The duke’s expression remained indifferent even as the man growled and threatened.

And the man who treated the magic wand takes off his mask.

An old man with white hair and a worn-out appearance. As the man mutters something, a halo of light flickers from his hands.

Woohoo-

The aura that was visible even without the use of a shield was that of divine power.

“Up to there. Peacock.”

As the halo of light grew a little brighter, the peacock stopped stretching his hand and spoke while looking around with a faint smile.

“I’ve been feeling a little emotional lately. Let’s do that.”

At those words, the man who had been holding the duke’s wrist shook his hand away.

“…huh!!”

Chook!!

Cheeek-!!

The man, whose face is covered in tattoos and scars, makes a disapproving noise and takes his hand away.

The table after a scuffle.

“Have you let out all your complaints?”

“Yes.”

“Chief of Police.”

“….”

At the chairman’s words, the chief of police, who had been standing like a statue, approaches the table.

“The Magic Tower Master seems to be getting older and losing his energy. Bring him outside to maintain the barrier.”

Nod-

Then he dragged the unconscious Matapju out of the secret room.

The union leader opened his mouth again after seeing the police chief return to the secret room.

“Two days later. The labyrinth will definitely show another change. It is a change that has not occurred in a thousand years, so now is the time to take active action.”

“What did he say?”

“Not yet.”

“Huh! But why are you so sure?”

The peacock bursts into laughter in bewilderment at the union leader’s confidently speaking opinion.

“That’s…”

Before the union leader could finish speaking, a sinister and terrifying black aura began to rise from his body.

It was very similar to the aura emanating from the monster.

“Magic is running wild. I can barely control it now.”

And as the union leader frowned, the black energy seeped into his body and disappeared.

“…..I see. Seeing the magic you’ve been controlling for 20 years run wild like that…”

The Duke nodded as if he understood the magic shown by the union leader.

“Okay. I’ll try my best to cooperate.”

With the Duke’s consent, everyone in the secret room speaks simultaneously.

“For his complete resurrection.”
