I Became the Youngest Disciple of the Martial God Chapter 261

Episode 261

“Why are you coming out there? really.”

When I asked, Verita spoke in a more embarrassed voice.

“yes? “Of course I was protecting my brother.”

“Protect?”

“Delac C. Badniker is the person in the Empire that requires the most attention.”

It’s probably a church, not an empire.

no. Is it also an empire?

I felt a little confused as if I hadn’t woken up yet, but I shook my head and said,

“It’s okay, don’t do things like this. “What are you going to do if you get caught?”

“You’ve already been caught?”

“huh?”

“He saw through my hiding.”

“… … .”

I opened my mouth at those words and thought back to Sanghyeolgong’s words and actions.

– Blood Mace Rasbet. I’d heard a few rumors, but seeing it in person was so much more than that.

– … It may seem a bit excessive, but if we do it together, it will be of great help no matter what we do.”

As he said those words, Sanghyeolgong’s gaze was slightly downward, or more accurately, towards the bottom of the bed.

“… Ah-oh.”

In fact, when I thought about it, no matter how great Verita was, I didn’t think she would be able to avoid Sanghyeolgong’s spirit.

Anyway, Verita crawled out from under the bed, shook off her clothes, and looked at me while standing blankly.

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… “Do you have anything to say?”

“Ah yes. “I heard that you have decided on a clan to join.”

“okay. I’m going into Corrupted.”

“okay.”

Berita did not show any unusual reaction upon hearing the word “corrupted.”

I didn’t try to stop him or question my sanity, but instead asked something else.

“Have you signed the application form?”

“no. “I decided to do it tomorrow.”

“Can I come with you too?”

I almost reflexively asked “Why?”, but… … .

Verita is also the clan that will join me. This means that you have the qualifications to find out where it is by meeting it in person.

“OK. “We decided to meet around lunch, so let’s go together then.”

“All right.”

“… “Then please leave for today.”

“yes. see you tommorow.”

Berita bowed her head and left the room… … .

I stayed alone in my room and fell into appreciation again… I’m freezing to death.

I came to my senses because Verita suddenly barged in.

I briefly took out the letter from Iron Blood Prince that I had kept in my pocket.

A letter whose seal was not even broken.

I was going to throw it away after Sanghyeolgong said it was okay not to read it, but I decided to keep it for now.

* * *

And the next day, lunch.

I left Heros with Verita.

The restaurant where we were supposed to meet was the restaurant that Chainscythe and I had stopped by yesterday, and as I entered the restaurant, I tried speaking like Chainscythe.

“Two people.”

“… … .”

The owner, who appeared by pulling back the curtain, nodded silently and disappeared.

I said looking at Verita.

“Do you eat meat too?”

“If you want me to eat it, I will eat it.”

“No, it’s not like that… … . president? “Is there anything else here besides meat?”

The owner, who reappeared, looked at Verita and nodded again.

I heard there’s only one menu, but since it’s a restaurant, I guess they have an emergency menu for situations like this.

“Here, here.”

Lanfero and Ramon were already sitting inside the store. But why bother sitting in a corner like that?

Hiding my doubts, I sat down across from him.

I asked, looking at the empty table.

“Are you not eating anything?”

“I already ordered it.”

Lanfero grinned and responded as if something suddenly occurred to him.

“So, did anything happen last night?”

“There was a bit of a commotion.”

“What’s the fuss?”

“A man who was either Jack or Jack was dragging a large army. “Twenty clans came together and battled each other one by one, and I got hurt a little because of that.”

“… … .”

As we talked, not only Lanferro but also Ramon became quiet.

These two people secretly caught my eye, and Lanfero asked in a very cautious voice.

“… So what happened?”

“It was a pretty good fight, but they even had some kind of S-class hero with them? We fought well, but lost in the end, and I received some help in that critical situation. Sister Lazbeth here next to me… … .”

Verita’s gaze was focused on her, so she nodded her head slightly with her signature gentle smile.

How great would it be if that was this guy’s true self?

He is the very image of a faithful monk, to the point where he develops faith that he had never had before.

“… “To the head of the family.”

“Ah, what does it mean to be the head of the family…?” … ?”

“Of course he’s an iron-blooded baller.”

“… … .”

Then, Goblin Ramon immediately noticed Lanferro.

“Hmm.”

Lanferro did not react in shock like Ramon, but instead scratched his forehead in a somewhat awkward manner.

“You cursed me… … . I feel sorry for our clan’s notoriety. I’m serious.”

“it’s okay. “I have something to ask you more than that.”

“ask. “If I know something, I’ll answer it.”

“Their main wish is for you not to join the Corrupted. What is the reason? Still, it’s a clan that eats together in Heros, but everyone I meet advises me not to join, interferes, and now even threatens me, so I’m a little embarrassed.”

Of course, I have no intention of refusing to join Corrupted if possible, but… … .

I have no intention of disclosing my inner feelings.

For now, I pretended to be conflicted and wanted to hear more about the internal circumstances of this Clan called Corrupted.

“Umm… … .”

Ramon glanced at Lanferro. It looks like he is asking for permission.

It seemed like they had an easy relationship, but looking at him like that, it seems like he recognized him as the clan leader.

Lanferro shrugged his shoulders and Ramon sighed.

“… Ugh. Okay. Well, since you were attacked, I guess there’s nothing more to hide. The reason why the Corrupted became Heros’ public enemies… “Because this clan is Heros’ only heterogeneous clan.”

I tilted my head at those words.

“If it is a different race… … .”

“yes. “That different race.”

There are seven races that contributed the most to the founding of the Unknown Empire, were involved, and have had a strong influence to this day.

Even today, they are called the [Seven Races], and are composed of humans, fairies, dwarves, giants, beastmen, Heavenly Wings, and finally the dragons.

Under imperial law, only the seven races listed above are recognized as full subjects of the empire… … .

In fact, more than 90% of the races living in the empire are those seven races. Let me just say that black fairies are also included in the fairy race.

And different races refer to the remaining races that are not included in the seven races.

Their location is very ambiguous even in the empire.

In addition to the system, it is common to be prohibited from entering a city of any size.

I heard that they live among themselves at most in places like the outskirts of the continent, but even so, they are not completely free from discrimination and persecution.

Moreover, this is limited to intelligent entities.

In the case of barbarians with low intelligence, they are treated no differently than monsters.

This means that even if you kill someone for no particular reason, you will not be punished by the law.

“Then Mr. Ramon is not a mutant or a mixed race or something… … .”

“yes yes. I’m a real goblin. What’s with the odd appearance? “She has a crazy alchemist in her clan, and she got some help from him.”

I saw Lanfero.

“Then what about the clan leader?”

“This body is a vampire.”

As he said that, he lifted his mouth with his finger, revealing sharp fangs that were clearly hard to believe that he was human.

‘You’re a vampire… … .’

It’s the rarest of these races. This is my first time seeing it in person. To be honest, I didn’t even know it existed.

I asked in bewilderment.

“And all the other clan members?”

“Not all, but most? “There are a lot of weirdos out there who aren’t.”

“hmm… … . “You were originally going to hide this until the end, right?”

Lanferro chuckled at my words and patted Ramon’s bald hair.

“Originally. Like you said, I was planning to play it off until I stamped my application form. But how can they keep their mouths shut when they have already suffered direct damage because of us?”

“hmm… … .”

After hearing those words, I thought that Lanfero was not a suitable person to be the head of an organization.

If he had been a more selfish and evil person, the clan’s situation wouldn’t have gotten to that point.

This is because the higher you get, the less affection you have.

“Let’s listen some more first.”

“uh? really?”

Ramon, who had been listening quietly, smiled happily. Then he realized that his voice was quite loud and he cleared his throat.

“therefore… Are you coming in even though we are from a different race? lily.”

“It’s not confirmed yet. “But you can at least read the application form, right?”

“Of course you can!”

Ramon rummaged through his bag with a happy face… … .

On the other hand, Lanfero was looking at me with curious eyes.

“It’s unexpected. “You’re human and come from a noble family, so you don’t have any aversion to other races?”

“I didn’t know whether it existed or not until today, but seeing as I didn’t feel particularly uncomfortable after hearing it, I guess it doesn’t exist.”

“Tsk tsk. It’s fun. “He is indeed Delak’s child.”

Lanfero spoke with a smile, which made me wonder.

Now that I think about it, Iron Blood Prince also acted as if he knew this man.

What was the relationship between these two?

At best, the name of Sanghyeolgong would not be taken lightly enough for the head of a C-rank clan to mention it carelessly.

“Here is your application form!”

At that time, Ramon took out some documents and spread them out on the table.

“I’ve written down the conditions below, so please check them carefully.”

Ramon smiled, showing his yellow teeth. I glanced over the application form.

After reading it roughly, it reminded me of a contract I read when I was a mercenary.

What you need to focus on is how many requests you have to complete each quarter, how much the wage is and what percentage it is shared with the clan, how long you have to remain in this clan after joining, and whether there are any disadvantages when leaving.

‘There doesn’t seem to be any problem.’

As I nodded roughly, the large owner appeared with a steak.

“ah.”

There is still a sign of membership on the table, so there is no place to put it. As I said before, the steak at this restaurant was big enough to be called a special dish.

Ramon said with an embarrassed face.

“First of all, starting with the signature… … .”

“Ah yes.”

The moment I reflexively tried to sign… “Blame,” Verita said, taking my documents.

“huh?”

“uh… … .”

“… … .”

The people around were confused, and the owner left the plate with an indifferent expression on his face.

“… … .”

“… … .”

There was a delicious smell from the golden brown steak, but the atmosphere felt cold for some reason.

It must have been because of Verita smiling next to me.

First of all, I’m smiling.

He was smiling, but it didn’t look like he was smiling.

“-if.”

Berita said.

“Who wrote this rude, disgusting, tear-worthy contract?”

“Soo, Sister? What happened suddenly… … .”

“Is that you?”

Are you a bastard? It sounded like something like this.

I realized that Verita was quite upset. Although not as bad as last night.

Just by looking at the hair that was normally calm rising slightly, I could tell that this guy’s internal power was running wild inside his body.

“Why are you doing this all of a sudden? Just calm down first.”

“I’m calming down, brother.”

The voice is like that.

Anyway, Verita said without looking very calm.

Looking at Lanfero.

“I heard he is the Clan Leader of the Corrupted.”

“however… … ?”

“Then this membership form has also been approved by the clan leader, right?”

“Umm… For now, though. I don’t check every single thing, including forms… … .”

“The average contract period when joining a clan is two years. “There are cases where it is designated by the number of missions accomplished rather than the contract period, but it is not common, so we exclude it.”

Verita said, pointing to a part of the application form.

“… “But here, the contract period is clearly stated to be 3 years?”

“Yeah, that’s true, but that’s only for the longest period, and the contract can be canceled at any time through negotiations every year…” … .”

“That phrase also bothers me. It says that in order to negotiate, you must speak directly to the clan leader at least a week in advance… … . So, if the clan leader goes on a long-term mission, the contract period will be automatically renewed?”

Ramon became mute and closed his mouth.

“It is a disadvantageous clause for us in that the contract period is automatically renewed if we do not say anything in the first place. Moreover, it is written here that wage negotiations only take place based on accumulated annual leave, not performance. “For example, even if we perform multiple difficult missions or achieve grade A or higher during the contract period, negotiations will not take place?”

“Well, that is…” … .”

“There is still more. I can’t even see a list of consumables that can be purchased from the clan, let alone their prices. “Is it possible that even though it is Heros’ clan, there is no top tier that receives support?”

“Well, that’s not true…” … .”

“No? Really? Truly? Could you look me in the eye and tell me straight? Seeing your hesitation makes me more suspicious, right? If you are a C-level or higher hero and have enemies in your clan, you can enjoy various benefits in cities that have made a contract with Heros. You can get room and board at an inn for free, or you can meet alone with the lord of the city without making an appointment… … .”

“… … .”

“However, I heard that a very small number of clans that did not achieve success in Heros are even deprived of such qualifications. Could this be the case for the Corrupted?”

“… … .”

Ramon now looked like he was on the verge of exhaustion. As his eyeballs roll, he sends Lanferro a pleading request to save him.

And Lanfero… … .

“Ugh… … . The steak at this place is truly excellent. “The blood was thick and there was quite a bit of meat in it.”

… I was mindlessly inhaling the steak.

Since it was a vampire, it looked different, but the steak was only lightly cooked on the outside.

I see blood dripping every time I eat it.

“… of course.”

Berita grinned.

“Even though it is of low rank, has bad rumors going around, and is made up of different races, Heros’ clan… … . There’s no way they would have crammed in such unreasonable clauses, right? “It was a funny joke.”

Hwareuk.

Verita smiled brightly and burned the contract in her hand.

A flame bloomed from the palm of my hand.

It is not magic, nor is it a magical tool.

I looked at him with a serious expression.

‘Is it evolution of samadhi…? … .’

How strong is this woman really?

“Well, that is…” … .”

Verita said, looking at Ramon who was speechless.

“Wasn’t it a joke?”

“yes?”

The smile disappeared from Verita’s expression.

“I’m no joke either.”

“… … .”

The man offering the note laughed and said.

“sorry. It was a joke. Help me.”

Verita finally smiled and said with satisfaction.

“Shall we try to draw up the contract again, from beginning to end? “My knowledge is limited, but I have seen and heard a lot, so it will be helpful.”

“Yeah… … .”

Ramon took out a pen with a droopy look on his face and started revising the contract again.

I looked at Verita and gave it a thumbs up for the first time.

“good job.”

“… … !”

Then Verita looked as if she was going to fly away at any moment.

… Honestly, I felt a bit reassured today.
