Became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 91

Chapter 26: Ghost’s Territory (3)

Yeongju Castle restaurant.

The lord and his family were sitting there.

“Chiral that bastard. It looks like he moved first? “I lose my temper just looking at that pretty and handsome body.”

The lord’s wife opened her mouth as she looked towards the door where Elesis and the other mercenaries left after finishing their meal a little while ago.

No, to be exact, it was Lakshitia who had been put in the guise of his wife and was one of the executives in this operation to obtain the Precious Blood.

“Ugh, I don’t have any energy but I have a lot of appetite. “Let’s just leave him out for the next operation.”

“Still, it has its uses, so bear with it.”

To the words of Geron, the executive wearing the guise of the lord’s son, Cesarus, the lord’s son and the general commander of this operation, answered in a low voice.

Unlike when he was talking to the mercenaries a moment ago, his eyes had a cold, almost chilling glow.

‘This operation is important.’

It was an instruction given by the King of the Dead, one of the five demonic spirits and Caesarus’s immediate superior.

Instructions to obtain the Precious Blood that exists here and deliver it to the Demon Station.

Although he did not know the exact reason, Caesarus guessed that it was probably related to the ‘fall of heaven’ that was being planned by the demon station.

‘It is questionable that the operation began earlier than expected… … .’

at that time,

“But isn’t it time to come back? “Why aren’t you coming?”

“I guess I’ll be eating it slowly, savoring it and all. Captain, when are you going to start? “Shouldn’t we move quickly now?”

Laksitia and Geron looked at Cesarus and asked.

“I was planning to start once Chiral came back, but… … “I can’t help it.”

Cesarus, who had been thinking for a moment while tapping his fingers on the table, opened his mouth as if he had made a decision.

“Let’s start hunting now. “You can kill everyone except the priest.”

Originally, it was right to kill all humans who entered this territory, but that priestess had a use.

A secret place where angel blood exists was discovered within the Lord’s Castle, but a special ritual was required to obtain the blood.

And that ritual was not possible on their own; only those who were related to angels or at least possessed enormous divine power.

“But will I become a wandering priest like that? “I think we need to bring in at least a bishop-level person.”

“It would be right to give it a try first. Even if it means squeezing out all the blood in his body.”

With those words, Caesarus slowly gets up from his seat.

At that moment, the entire lord’s castle began to tremble.

* * *

The hallway of Yeongju Castle.

“No, why don’t you believe me?” … .”

After leaving the restaurant, Elesis muttered gloomily as she headed to her assigned room.

She recalled other members who had gone before her to see the garden of Yeongju Castle.

-I thought I couldn’t feel anything? And Ellie, I don’t think that’s what you’re saying about the lord and family who welcomed us.

-what? You used forks and knives interchangeably? Things like that happen, too. Sometimes I get confused between my left hand and my right hand, so I sometimes block with my sword what I should have blocked with my shield?

As soon as I left the restaurant, I strongly insisted that there was something strange with them, but it didn’t make any sense.

Rather, Rath and Amber even had a goodwill towards the lord who welcomed them.

Normally she would have been like that too, but not now.

Because the feeling of discomfort was getting worse.

Elesis trusted her senses.

-Ellie, you are more special than anyone else in the world.

That’s what her mother always told her.

As the saying goes, I was confident that I was better than anyone else at least in terms of sense in a ‘specific field.’

And that ‘specific field’ was those that were against God’s will, such as evil spirits and monsters.

I had almost forgotten about it since I had no use for it until now, but that feeling was now continuously ringing an alarm.

‘I can’t do this. ‘I’ll have to try to convince you again.’

For some reason, it seemed like she shouldn’t stay here any longer, so it was time for Elesis to turn towards where her companions were.

“however… … .”

Her eyes scanned the surroundings.

“Why is there no one there?”

The attendants who had been seen occasionally in the hallway just a moment ago were nowhere to be seen.

No, not only the attendant, but I didn’t feel any pretense of popularity at all.

It was a moment when doubt appeared on Elesis’ face.

“There is, man.”

A woman’s voice coming from the side.

Elesis’ head jerked in the direction from which the voice came.

However, all that was there was a portrait of a woman with her eyes closed hanging on the wall.

“no way… … .”

When Elesis noticed something and muttered in a tired voice,

“Here.”

Jump!

The woman in the portrait spoke again, opening her eyes and mouth at the same time.

Countless people stuck in their eyes and mouths.

The faces of those people were all distorted and they were screaming silently.

“Aaaah!”

Elesis screams and retreats at the sight of that bizarre sight.

The title of the painting caught her eye later.

hell.

That moment,

All the portraits in the hallway looked at Elesis and grinned.

“W-what… … !”

She steps back with a tired expression on her face.

Although I felt a sense of liveliness and discomfort, I never dreamed that it would actually come to life and move.

Soon after,

Kikikikikikikikikiki!

The people who were laughing while looking at Elesis with crazy lights began to come out of the picture one by one.

* * *

Yeongju Castle 1st floor.

“The hunting order has been given. “You can just secure the priest and kill everyone else.”

A group of people were walking down the hallway at high speed.

Now, they are openly spilling demonic energy in all directions.

Since the order to kill had already been given, there was no need to hide it anymore.

“Hehe, I heard the two of you went towards the garden… … “There’s no need for everyone to go together, so should I just go right away?”

Inside the freckled maid’s skin that seemed ready to tear at any moment, a person spoke with shining eyes.

Dehal, who was leading this group while wearing the guise of a chamberlain, snorted.

“Don’t talk nonsense. Don’t you know that I’m trying to eat it all by myself? It is unconditionally equal distribution. Do you understand?”

“Hehehe, don’t be so angry. Honestly, you want to eat alone too. “It’s like an instinct.”

“It’s instinct, it’s my own fault, and if you run out alone like last time, I’ll kill you first.”

“I understand, I understand.”

The maid Sain waved her hands as if telling her to calm down in response to Dehal’s words.

Dehal shook his head slightly and started walking again, but suddenly looked back as if it was strange.

“But doesn’t it seem like the numbers have decreased somehow?”

“What are you talking about?”

“That’s literally it. “Some people disappeared.”

The number of signs that were clearly following at first was seven.

But now, including myself, there are only six of them.

“Hehe, aren’t these guys secretly falling in the middle with the same thoughts as me?”

“No, if that were the case, there’s no way I wouldn’t have been able to detect it… … .”

It was then.

Quad Deuk!

The sound of something breaking was heard in their ears.

“… … !”

Dehal quickly turned his head in the direction where the sound came from, but the sign there had already completely disappeared.

“The enemy! Be alert to your surroundings and spread your senses widely!”

Still, is he the leader of the group?

Dehal quickly grasps the situation and makes the best decision in an instant.

At his words, the other signees also began to close the distance between each other and be on guard in all directions.

‘what? Were there any enemies in the castle?’

No, I have never heard of a new enemy invading this territory, let alone the castle.

There are only prey.

Therefore, this situation could not help but be embarrassing to the people involved.

‘But if you keep watch in all directions like this, the enemy can’t move carelessly… … .’

But before those thoughts were over,

Kwazijijik!

With another eerie sound, one of the signs disappeared again.

No matter how much you spread your senses in all directions, there are bound to be subtle blind spots.

Because the attack started from such a blind spot, I couldn’t even react.

“W-what!”

“What and where…” … !”

Those who are starting to become agitated by him.

Several people have already lost their lives.

Moreover, even though I was fully alert, I couldn’t even see how the enemy attacked, let alone what they looked like.

The doubts that started from that begin to turn into small fears among them.

That means they too could die without knowing anything.

“Hi-Hi! calm down. Anyway, this guy specializes in sneak attacks. If you get it right once… … .”

It was the moment when Sain, wearing the skin of a maid, was about to open her mouth to calm the commotion.

Pop!

Then her head disappeared.

No, it was more accurate to say that it had been swallowed up by something.

The mouth of a beast made of darkness.

Crack! Crack!

The maw of a black beast, which made me feel ominous just by looking at it, was chewing on her head and swallowing it.

dump-

Starting with the headless body of the maid falling to the floor,

“Well, what on earth is that…” … !”

The fear in the hearts of the other people rapidly grew.

Sajins basically had a stronger obsession with life than other monsters.

Because it was their instinct to want to survive as long as possible and eat as many people as possible.

Therefore, it was easy for him to become agitated when his life was threatened.

“Ugh… … !”

In an instant, the signs fell into chaos and began to move out of formation.

And at that moment,

Quack, quack, quack!

The full-scale massacre began.

Black animals randomly pop out from the darkness that fills the hallway and disappear one by one, carrying signs scattered in all directions.

“this… … !”

Dehar lets out a voice mixed with astonishment and agitation as he looks at the number of signs rapidly decreasing.

hunt.

They really couldn’t believe it, but now they were being hunted.

‘He caused fear by not showing himself from the beginning and maximized that fear by brutally killing the person who was trying to calm him down.’

Perhaps the appearance of the beast at that time was also calculated.

The precision gave me goosebumps.

‘It’s already too late to control it.’

A truly unfamiliar situation.

Because they were always the ones doing the hunting, not the ones being hunted.

Maybe that’s why I couldn’t cope with this situation even more.

“Aaaah!”

“Save me, save me, ahhh!”

Meanwhile, the number of deaths continues to decrease.

And in an instant, the screaming stopped.

Finally, the chamberlain was the only one left.

In front of him,

Sreuk-

A darkness appeared that swallowed up all the other signs.

Soon, a man appears in the darkness.

“you… … !”

At that moment, Dehal’s eyes widened.

The man in front of me was one of the four prey who entered the castle today, and he should have already been eaten by Chiral, the official.

I couldn’t understand why the author was here.

Did they infiltrate while hiding their power targeting them from the beginning?

‘Then how on earth do you know and what happened to Kiral? … .’

“You seem to have a lot on your mind.”

Dhal’s thoughts were cut off by the low voice of the man, Shion.

“If I die anyway, it’ll be useless.”

“You son of a bitch!”

Dehal burst into anger at those words and began to attack Sion at high speed.

Along with that, a terrifying evil energy begins to flow from his entire body.

At first glance, it seemed like he had been provoked, but his mind was colder than ever.

‘They massacred other guys, but it was all a secret attack. In that case, he would definitely be weak in a head-on confrontation.’

Moreover, the fact that he abandoned that advantage and showed up like this was proof that he had let his guard down because he was the only one left.

He planned to take full advantage of that distraction.

‘Put all your strength in from the beginning and aim for one shot!’

Knock knock!

With that thought, the human skin covering him gathered in his right hand, squirming strangely.

Morale increases explosively along with it.

Until then, Zion was just standing still.

“I’ll crush your entire body!”

Dehal, whose eyes lit up at Shion’s reaction, finally unleashed the blow he had prepared.

No, more accurately, I was trying to pour it out.

Okay!

A solid line appears on his neck without any warning.

That’s because his head, separated from his body along that solid line, fell to the floor.

‘how… … .’

A body floundering with its head missing and the view gradually heading downward.

The last thing Dehal saw in his vision was Shion looking at him without any emotion.

“It’s worth using.”

Shion muttered like that and distracted the darkness that was still taking the form of an animal.

The move that annihilated the Sajin a moment ago was from the beginning a hunting method often used by Sion.

In addition, I modified one of the original Black Star techniques by referring to the blood magic used by Liu Sina in the past, and a pretty good picture came out.

I felt like I would have to use it often in the future.

‘Now I have to find out the location of the Precious Blood… … .’

Shion looks down the hallway that leads with that thought.

Although the structure of the entire Lord’s Castle had already been spread by the Black Star, there was no place where the Holy Blood was believed to be hidden.

No, it’s probably something he didn’t discover.

‘Walking around and searching for something yourself is time-consuming and inefficient.’

Then there was only one way.

‘The only way is to make them find it on their own from the other side.’

The conversation between the autographs I heard a little while ago.

According to the content, there was no need for Shion to go and rescue Elesis first.

The dark shrine that was hung before entering Yeongju Castle should be enough.

It also seemed like I could use it.

but,

‘It would be better to deal with these guys first.’

With that thought, Shion reaches out toward the wall next to him.

Hahaha!

The moment the black star that grew from Zion’s fingertips completely enveloped his entire arm,

“Kkhyahahahaha!”

Kwaaaaang!

With a loud laugh, the entire wall exploded, and through it, a blade with a terrible spirit rushed towards Zion.

A blow so powerful that it couldn’t even be compared to the enemies he was dealing with just a moment ago.

The moment the blade of fraud and the hand of Sion collide, blah blah blah!

The entire hallway of the Lord’s Castle began to vibrate and split apart.
