Chapter 30. Hunting a cornered rat. (15)
“No, you shouldn’t cut like that.”
I spoke harshly and gently squeezed Rachel’s wrist.
“What I’m saying is, aim precisely at the tendons that stick out like this.”
“Ah, I heard you figured it out.”
Rachel pushed my hand away in frustration and turned around.
Suddenly!
The faint sound of a blade cutting into flesh cut through the silence.
“—!”
Emperor Theodore twisted his body.
The screams he let out were completely blocked thanks to the cloth stuffed in his mouth. This was also used to prevent biting the tongue.
Drop, drop.
The cloth he put in his mouth was already soaked, and drool was flowing out of his lips.
The ties that bound Emperor Theodore were so tight that they never seemed to loosen.
‘There are times when Philip can be useful.’
I muttered to myself and turned my gaze to Emperor Theodore.
Ssam liquid- Ssam liquid-
Emperor Theodore hung his head and let out a thin breath.
There were blood stains around his chair. Even though there are no wounds on the body.
The reason was simple.
Sigh-
Rachel stretched out her hand to Emperor Theodore’s ear. His ear was half torn off because Rachel had cut it off, and it was shaking precariously.
Pot!
Serenade’s white light emanated from Rachel’s hand and enveloped the area. And when I took my hand away again, the cut area was completely healed.
Except for the blood stains on Emperor Theodore’s shoulders, it was as if nothing had happened.
Jump!
Ever since Rachel handed over the dagger to me,
Suddenly!
Without even taking a breath, she was absorbed in fertilizing Emperor Theodore.
wickedness!
From head to toe. With meticulous and sincere hands, as if dismembering prey.
Under normal circumstances, Emperor Theodore would have died from excessive bleeding or fainted from mental shock.
Paaaat!
However, Rachel prevented this by healing him at an exquisite interval. Of course, he left behind the scars from the magic explosion and only cut off the exact part he had cut.
Thanks to this, Emperor Theodore returned to his normal body again and had to be cut, cut, and stabbed.
Passut-Pasut-
It is a bonus that Rachel’s body has been constantly shimmering with golden light. She sparkled so brightly that I thought she was a golden saint.
How much time has passed like that?
“Hehe.”
Rachel took a step back from Emperor Theodore and admired him.
“Oh, it’s fun.”
Her innocent, young face was splattered with blood. The dagger in her hand, as well as everything from her wrist to her forearm, was covered in blood.
But the sight was full of joy and joy. Sweetness dripped down, as if I was licking a candy I had been looking forward to for a long time.
So, when I saw Rachel’s joy, it was more like being assimilated to it rather than being horrified.
The joy of someone who achieved the long-awaited revenge was so sweet.
“now.”
Once again, Rachel blocked the way to approach Theodore.
“Please stop for a moment. Are you going to be like this all day?”
“This is just the beginning!”
Rachel shot back angrily.
“You’re not telling me to eat this and be satisfied, are I?”
“… … .”
“Theodore, every single muscle, bone, and flesh of that bastard!”
A sharp blue glow came out of Rachel’s eyes.
“It’s all mine. “I won’t give it to anyone.”
I could sense extreme resentment and venom in her low voice.
‘I’m going to kill them all! ‘I’m going to kill everyone here!’
It was different from Ekarot, who shouted loudly.
A clear and deep hatred towards just one human being. It was the type of thing that would not be resolved unless it was washed away with blood.
“Who said they would take it away?”
Tsk tsk, he clicked his tongue and pointed to the tightly closed door.
“Today is not the only day, so take it in moderation.”
This was said to the nobles outside who would be curious about the results.
“… … okay.”
Rachel took a deep breath and obediently stepped back. From then on, it was my specialty(?).
“Now, Your Majesty, Emperor.”
He grinned at the stumbling man.
“I’ll let you talk if you promise not to yell.”

Emperor Theodore suddenly raised his head. He stretched out his hand, staring at his sizzling red eyes.
Squeak-
The moment a wet rag is pulled out of your mouth,
“outside-”
Emperor Theodore had no choice but to open his mouth and shout.
Bye!
His attempts were in vain. Because I broke his jawbone with my other hand.
“—-!”
Theodore could not make any sound. He just violently shook his head up and down and writhed in maddening pain.
“I knew it would be like this.”
He threw away the blood-soaked cloth and laughed darkly.
“Actually, yelling wouldn’t have helped.”
“… … .”
“We put a noise barrier around this entire room. “The new Mage Tower Lord is very capable.”
There was also this reason why I took things easy.
“The jawbone… … .”
He tapped Emperor Theodore’s chin and said.
“… … mistake. “Stop being reflexive.”
It was a very upsetting remark, but Theodore was so bawling that he couldn’t even hear me.
“Rachel.”
He winked at Rachel, who was standing next to him. She approached me with Rachel’s face filled with admiration.
“Should I have left it to you a long time ago?”
While muttering, he stretched out his hand towards Emperor Theodore’s cheek.
Faaah!
With a flash of her hand, Emperor Theodore’s jaw was restored to its original state.
“Huh, huh.”
Emperor Theodore had drool flowing from his mouth. He had an unsightly appearance, uncharacteristic of a monarch of an empire.
I waited for him for a moment to come to his senses.
“… … Since when,”
Emperor Theodore no longer resorted to foolish tricks.
“two people… … “Are you holding hands?”
Just muttering in that growling voice. The bass, which had already been restful, was now completely exhausted.
“There would be no contact with each other… … . A trick like this… … “There wouldn’t have been enough time to meet each other.”
“well.”
I smiled and said neither positive nor negative words. Emperor Theodore glanced at me and moved his lips.
“I don’t know what kind of sweet talk the saint used to lure you, but… … .”
He swallowed dry saliva and quietly whispered to me.
“If you want something from me… … “Tell me anything.”
Hearing these words from a count and hearing them from the monarch of an empire definitely felt different.
‘That’s fun.’
I’ve gotten what I wanted by threatening many people in the past, but it’s never been as thrilling as it is now.
“… … “It’s what you want.”
Emperor Theodore walked around the chair he was sitting on and muttered.
“What you want, what you want.”
As if I was really worried, as if he could give me what I wanted.
As if he had appeared here for exactly that purpose.
“Tell me anything, anything.”
Emperor Theodore looked at me with an earnest face. I realized that the only way out of this situation was me.
“Do you want the title of duke?” … ? “I will promote Obest Territory to Grand Dukedom.”
“… … .”
“Diego is still alive, but if there is a better successor, wouldn’t he be able to take over?” … ?”
A look of anxiety spread across Rachel’s face. She began to examine me with an anxious look.
“Is that all? From now on, Grand Duke Ovest will be excluded from paying taxes. “This is an unprecedented benefit.”
Emperor Theodore acted as if he had already promoted the Ovest domain.
“Is that all? At the moment, the position of Commander of the Imperial Palace Knights is vacant. “If you want, I will let you resign from that position.”
“… … .”
“It is a very honorable position. Otherwise, yes. yes.”
He lightly pushed up the corner of his mouth.
“Do you want Violette? How about it? “It’s the best product I can give you.”
But the words that came out of his mouth were by no means light.
“It seems like Violette also likes you. She doesn’t need a dowry. She will provide everything from the imperial family… … .”
Emperor Theodore urged me to answer with a very desperate look on his face.
“How is it? Prince Abel. “I will give everything I can.”
“Hmm… … .”
I put on a serious expression and pretended to be lost in thought. As if his heart was shaken by the emperor’s proposal.
“Ah, Abel… … !”
Rachel, who had been waiting next to me, couldn’t bear it anymore and came to me.
“No way, right? “That-”
“Shh.”
He covered Rachel’s lips with his finger and added.
“I’ll think about it.”
Emperor Theodore and Rachel’s reactions were mixed. While the emperor’s face became brighter, Rachel’s face was mercilessly distorted.
After dropping the two people into heaven and hell,
Trudging.
I approached Emperor Theodore closely.
“Your Majesty the Emperor.”
“Oh, yes. Have you decided?”
Emperor Theodore smiled kindly with a tired face. The years hidden beneath his smooth exterior were revealed.
“Then hurry up and release this, okay?”
“… … .”
“Let’s sit down comfortably face to face and talk. To do that, you have to first receive the saint’s blessing… … .”
He seemed to think I had taken his side. He was seduced by the wealth, fame, and power he was promised.
“… … haha.”
I held back and held back, but eventually a small smile escaped my lips.
“Ha ha ha ha ha!”
It eventually exploded into laughter.
“… … ?”
Emperor Theodore made a dumb expression. Even Rachel, who saw the sight, burst into laughter.
“Ahahaha!”
Rachel held her belly button and laughed excitedly.
“Ahaha, ahahahaha! That bastard, look at that face… … !”
She let out a long, drawn-out laugh that seemed to take her breath away.
“Going crazy! I want to stuff that face! Ahahaha!”
Rachel finally started rolling around on the floor. She was laughing so hard that I thought she might lose her breath.
“???”
Emperor Theodore could not hide his puzzled expression as he looked at the two of us. It slowly turned into shame and eventually anger.
“How dare these…” … !”
“Ahahaha!”
“Ha ha ha ha ha!”
Even that was drowned out by the laughter of the two of us.
“Ah, Abel, it’s a good thing you did as you said. “I suddenly thought it was some kind of play.”
Rachel finally stopped laughing and stood up unsteadily. There was a happy glow in the corners of the eyes that had completely relaxed.
“I can’t believe I’m begging miserably… … . “It’s really, really a waste to watch it alone.”
“Haha, haha… … .”
I also barely stopped laughing.
“Ah, Your Majesty the Emperor.”
He said, wiping the tears from his eyes.
“This was the funniest bullshit I’ve heard this year. “It’s the best, really.”
“—!”
Emperor Theodore was so angry that he could not speak. His face was red – in fact, it was hard to tell because it was already covered in blood – and he just glared at me.
I calmly accepted that gaze and smiled.
“The promises you made are worthless to me.”
“… … .”
“It’s all something I can get on my own. Besides, you can’t give me what I really want.”
He continued speaking, even dropping the honorific title.
“There is only one thing I want.”
Emperor Theodore looked at my mouth with an expression of disbelief.
“Because it’s your place.”
“… … !”
Emperor Theodore’s face hardened.
“omg? Since when?”
Rachel opened her mouth.
“You never said anything like that to me, right?”
“If you want to deceive the enemy, you must first deceive your allies.”
Emperor Theodore took a deep breath as he looked at us. There was anger on the inhale and shock on the exhale.
“Abel Kindreal… … ! How dare you!”
Saliva flew out of his mouth. If he hadn’t been tied up, he wouldn’t have hesitated to use a point.
“You talk about being a faithful servant, but you secretly do this behind my back?!”
“Then should I do it from the back or from the front?”
I laughed and laughed a lot.
“Then did Cain have it written on his face that he would rebel against me?”
A vein of blood appeared on Emperor Theodore’s neck.
“I have to say something sensible! What qualifications do you have to seek the position of emperor?! “Do you think that’s possible?!”
Whenever he felt weak and exhausted, he let out a roar with all his might. Terrible anger made him move.
“Oh, it’s possible.”
He looked down at Emperor Theodore and said.
“Given the current state of the empire, it is quite possible.”
He pointed out each finger and explained it kindly.
“Which family is currently the most popular in the empire? Who will the Wizard’s Tower support in the future?”
“And whose hand will the Empire’s only saintess give?”
chin.
He grabbed Emperor Theodore’s shoulder and brought his face closer.
“Finally, what if His Majesty’s life is in danger? In the meantime, what if a traitor named Cain lurks outside the capital?”
“… … .”
“What choice will the people of the empire and nobles make then?”
Emperor Theodore’s face twisted viciously.
