The Blood Knight’s Villains

My Villains Episode 049

13. Army of Young Lions (4)

I remember the first time I encountered ‘King of Murder Ulkar’ while playing Dark World.

He was covered in blood with a terrible look that could no longer be seen as a human being.

I almost peed because of the creepy appearance and the spooky background sound of a horror movie.

” hey.”

It seems that the ‘Palace of Slaughter’ where you fight with him was more frightening than the King of Slaughter itself.

At first glance, I heard that when it was released in the US, ‘Palace of Slaughter’ was so brutal that it almost received an A0 rating. I said it was a miracle that I got an M grade.

“trunnion.”

I suddenly have a question. What would happen if I killed Prince Ulkar here and now?

Without the King of Slaughter, Chapter 6 would not be possible. When the scenario of Chapter 6 evaporated, the following chapters-something stabbed me in the side while I was deep in thought.

“evil!”

I turned my head with a shrieking scream.

Ellen was staring blankly with her legs outstretched.

“What are you doing dude!”

“You didn’t answer when I called.”

“When did I?”

“just now. I wondered where it was uncomfortable because he was only making such an idiot face.”

…Saying sarcastic is almost a passive skill. Years like Wensu.

After informing the prince of the situation inside the city with a letter, we rented a tent that was used as a warehouse and took a break.

Perhaps by now, the prince and knights were in a meeting about how to save the city.

Looking back, Grania and Mr. Luke Arnal had already passed out.

Grania and I were able to receive treatment from the priest by order of Prince Ulkar.

It was the first time I actually saw him using divine power, but it was so amazing. As if shedding skin, the wound fell off and new flesh came up.

In addition to that, along with the sound of reverent prayer, the faint golden light rippled, and the unprecedented faith welled up. Long live the Gwangmyeong Bridge!

Unlike potions that increase regeneration speed, the priest’s healing technique boosts vitality itself, so there are no side effects (such as sudden hunger or anemia).

When the priest said that he had borrowed the power of God, he nodded his head.

After all, is the priest an essential element of the party?

How many years ago was it? I once played Dark World with my friends while drinking and going to a PC room.

I volunteered to make a paladin character for party play to pique the interest of those who sell memories…

What level was that? No matter how high it was, it must have been around 30, but I can’t remember.

Just as the completely forgotten ‘Ganadara Magician’ appeared as a character named Ellen, I hope that ‘I’m buying a sex machine’ will appear soon.

Thinking so, I lay down again, but blue eyes were looking down at me.

I frowned as I looked at Ellen, who opened her eyes as if she were not tired.

“Aren’t you sleeping?”

“What if I can’t sleep?”

“Why can’t you sleep? I went through life and death day after day

.”

Then, Ellen pouted her lips, glancing sideways at the other colleagues.

“Because I care.”

“Are you concerned? Seriously, are you pretending to be picky now?”

At the time of our first night in South Harbor, we were staying in a shared room shared by close to twenty travelers.

Remembering that time, Ellen’s complaint was new.

“Can you sleep while smelling the smell of rotting corpses?”

“Again again. Didn’t I tell you to be careful?”

“That’s not it… uh huh.”

Ellen narrowed her brows in frustration as she continued.

“The fraud that Grandpa deals with is magical power from the spirit world. I don’t know for a dull person like you, but to a magician like me, I can feel the uneasy aura very clearly…

”

As I scratched my cheek in embarrassment for some reason, Ellen, who had been grumbling, furrowed her brow.

“Can’t you feel this?”

I don’t feel it at all. Maybe it’s because I didn’t use any magic power.

“…well. I don’t know.”

“How did the blood mage’s inspiration come about?”

I scratched my head and let go of his suspicious gaze.

Ellen also continued to grumble, as if she didn’t intend to interrogate him.

“Scam is like that. Why do I have to stay in a warehouse like this?”

“Better than sleeping with soldiers.

Couldn’t the prince have been considerate?”

“Heh, I don’t even like that prince.”

Do you have any favorites?

“Why is the prince again?”

“There was a lot of arrogance in his expression and voice. What if Ji is royalty? They look down on people like they look down on them.”

“…losing.”

“What did you just say?”

“Didn’t you say anything?”

Ellen, who glanced at me with ringed eyes for a moment, buried herself in the straw and continued gossip.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen an idiot wearing such flashy armor while going into battle. Do you want to brag about your precious body? His face looks like a parasitic brother, and he is unlucky.”

“Hey stop. who will listen.”

He seemed to have noticed that my voice had become dangerously loud, so he kept his mouth shut. Fortunately, I didn’t feel any popularity around me.

After listening to her surroundings for a while, Ellen pulled the blanket up to her nose and looked sideways at me.

“…Is that why you turned it down too?”

“huh? what?”

“What the prince suggested.”

“Ah, that…”

The prince’s proposal Ellen said was nothing other than a recruitment offer.

They told me to come under the curtain, as if they liked my skills. I’ll make you a friend and use it carefully.

I expressed my intention of refusal in a roundabout way, being as polite as possible.

Becoming a subordinate of someone who will one day set the capital on fire and hasten the crisis of the end… well, wouldn’t it be a bit difficult with a normal resolution?

The prince expressed regret, but did not impose any sanctions. Fortunately, he seems to be still normal.

Feeling Ellen’s gaze, I roughly nodded.

“Well, there is none of that. It’s a little bit like getting older and serving in the military again…”

“Why are you old? And were you a soldier’?”

hey what am i saying now

“No, rather than being a soldier- I guess I should have lived that unreasonable life.”

“…a life like a soldier?”

Curiosity welled up in Ellen’s big eyes, but I tried my best to ignore it and quickly asked the question.

“you? What would you have done if you had been offered that?”

“me? I…”

The prince seemed aware that Ellen was a spellcaster, but made no suggestions. I thought that the level would not be so great because of my age.

Besides, I saw earlier, did it say ‘Master Limond’? Anyway, it seems like they have a very high level mage.

There must be no reason to recruit a young wizard whose identity he does not know.

Of course, if I had known that Ellen was from the Palace of La Palais, the story would have been different, but… After

thinking for a while, Ellen shook her head.

“it’s okay. I don’t know what kind of suspicion I’ll get if I use palace magic without a wizard’s card.”

“What are you talking about all of a sudden? Didn’t you go around using magic without that kind of thing?”

To my question, he asked back with a pathetic expression.

“Is the sewer in the back alley the same as in front of the prince, you idiot?”

“Uh… is it different?”

“Common people might say, ‘Wow, you’re a wizard,’ but royalty and lords are different. They’re going to use someone to confirm my origins?”

“What is it? Is it true that you are from the Palace of La Palais?”

“That’s true…”

Ellen suddenly fell silent. The sight of him reminded me of his situation.

right. This guy is being framed for killing his teacher and ruining it. Entrusting oneself to the prince would have been a suicidal choice.

It would be best not to use magic in front of powerful nobles. I’ll have to be careful in the future.

“Anyway, I have to go through some cumbersome procedures, and there are things I have to do…”

“Umm, that’s right.”

“In the first place, I hate being a subordinate of such an unlucky bastard. What’s the point of following a guy who only searches for battlefields?”

“…why are you suddenly getting a fever? That’s what I was asking. Are you sad that you didn’t get the offer?”

When I joked with a calm face, Ellen immediately wrinkled her face.

“Who is upset? If you’re going to talk nonsense, go to sleep.”

“I was going to sleep, but you talked to me. Who frowned at not being able to sleep?”

“Who’s winking, you idiot!”

“You winked, then who would wince? It’s your specialty.”

“This dog…!”

The night in the unfamiliar tent deepened as usual.

I opened my eyes only after the sun had risen in mid-sky, and I grabbed my blank head and started calculating in my mind.

Ratman’s EXP is 10. If you catch about 70 or so, it’s 700…

Black slime is 600. Sometimes, the corpse worms and zombies you encounter will add up to

a little over 100.

Torvald’s experience is about 400 or so? Let’s say it’s 800 including the subordinates.

The magicians in the camp are 20 or so? Well-dressed guys will do around 50. Let’s say it’s a little less than 500.

The guys you run into during the chase will have the same experience as ‘Riding Bandit’, right? So if you hit 150 and killed a dozen people, it’s around 2200?

If you assume that the experience you ate is about half since you played the party- Is the experience you ate for two days worth 2400? Then it’s not enough.

No, the battle in the camp or the chase in the plain was virtually no different from solo play.

At that time, if I ate the experience alone, it would be around 3800?

Assuming that the experience required for level 12 is 4500 and the level of experience remaining at level 11 was filled, it seems to be roughly correct.

As soon as I woke up, the reason why I was wrapping my head was because of the level up.

It had only been three days since he had reached level 12 while fighting the Poisons that attacked the inn, but he had already reached level 13.

Well, I’ve been rolling a little hard for the past two days. I almost died last night.

It’s a bit unfortunate that Ellen’s level remains the same… Considering that the experience she ate was around 2400, leveling up was still a long way off.

The stat bonus is 4 points for Agility and 1 point for Magic.

As a result, the current stats are 20 points of strength, 19 points of agility, 20 points of health, and 2 points of horsepower.

If you include the effect of the ‘Dragon Slayer’s Ring’, your strength and agility will rise to 23 and 22, respectively.

The horsepower was finally filmed after much thought. After all, in order to reach level 15 and use rank 2 skills, I had to level up my blood.

Rather than suddenly raising several points, taking one point at a time will help you adapt.

Skill bonus saved. As soon as he reached level 15, it was to give him 2nd rank skills.

It doesn’t matter if you take ‘Blood Thirst’ a little late, but ‘Blood Blast’, ‘Loot’ and ‘Hot Blood’ are skills that are effective even if you invest only 1 point.

Of course, it seemed a bit complacent to save skill bonuses in the middle of living a real life, but… Even if I

invested 1 or 2 points in ‘Blood Shield’ and ‘Thirst’ right now, there would be no big change.

I already invested 5 points in ‘Blood Blade’ and ‘Flowing Blood’, so I can’t shoot any more until I open the skill of the next rank.

Thinking so, I picked up a leather canteen and quenched my thirst.

And while I was spraying water on my face to wake up, a soldier who came in with the tent tilted back told me that there was a call from the prince.

Ai hasn’t even eaten yet… I got up quickly while grumbling inwardly.

“Huh.”

Ellen, who was lying curled up next to me like a slug, looked around with a silly noise.

“Nothing. Sleep some more.”

“…Um.”

After covering his head with a blanket to put him back to sleep, he looked back and saw that Grania and Arnal were still asleep.

Mr. Luke was away with the bed neatly arranged.

You shouldn’t be wandering around here and there… You know what, you should be careful.

Carefully escaping from the tent, I arrived at the headquarters under the guidance of a soldier. Unlike yesterday, there were only a prince, a wizard, and two knights in the tent.

Besides that, I saw a few soldiers and servants, but I didn’t think I needed to bother.

“Meet the three princes, Your Highness.”

After taking an example with a greeting, Ulkar nodded lightly, received the greeting, and went straight to the point.

“The strategy has been decided. I will give roles to you mercenaries as well.”

“What about your role?”

As I listened to Ulkar’s explanation, I was convinced.

I’m pretty sure this kid is crazy.
