Episode 186. < Chlorine (炎fire). (1) >
One.
-I grew up in a boring village.
One-armed Yumar said.
-There is no work in the countryside. Even after I grew up, I had nothing to do, so I just played with kids my age. Sometimes, I watched to see if a tiger came down from the mountain, and collected toll from merchants passing through the neighborhood… . It was a village as poor as the dried bark of a tree.
Yumar scratched his forehead.
Wrinkles formed on his green forehead.
-Have you ever killed anyone?
“Yes.”
-okay. There must be a lot.
The one-armed actor nodded his head.
He didn’t seem very surprised.
-Where did you first see blood? battleground? or not… .
“It was a hunting ground. “I ambushed him and killed him.”
-Ah, it’s not a warrior-like achievement.
Yumar raised the corners of his mouth.
A person who confesses to murder laughs at least once during the story.
Anyone.
It’s not about laughing and talking about murder. You are mocking yourself for bringing up such a story, and the act of confession itself. They secretly hope that I will join in on this ridicule.
“Yes, that’s right. “He was not a warrior.”
That’s when it’s most important.
That’s when you shouldn’t go along with the ridicule.
I asked calmly without changing my expression.
“How was your senior?”
-…….
The smile disappeared from Yumar’s mouth.
-… How many years ago? Has it already been 13 years? The village chief kept going back and forth to other villages. At first, I thought he was going to see a friend, but he went there too often. Seven months later, the village chief returned with a confident look on his face.
“We have created a business for our village. “You idiots.”
The business that the village chief had learned from the neighboring village was drug manufacturing.
-At first, we started by gathering people from the village. There were six people. In Gangchon, there are a lot of young people like me who are grumpy. Well, it’s called [Actinae Flower]. If you fairies eat it, you’ll die. If you use that as a raw material, extract it, and harden it into a pill… .
“He wasn’t just a drug dealer, he was the leader of a gang. Seniors.”
-…….
One-armed Yumar closed his mouth.
-How did you know?
“I only had a little conversation with you, but I understood right away. Your senior is smart. His memory is extraordinary. You remember that it was 13 years ago and the village chief snooped around the neighboring village for 7 months, right? “You are strong in numbers.”
I poured tea into Yumar’s cup on the table.
Thanks to receiving direct lessons from Raviel, my tea ceremony skills have improved greatly.
It’s a bit disappointing that this troupe only has cheap tea leaves.
“I even know how to make drugs. I even remember the village chief’s every move, but I’m sure he’s not at the level of an organization henchman. A boss, or at least a deputy boss. “He must have been a key executive in the organization.”
-… You’re very perceptive.
Yumar smiled bitterly and lifted the teacup with one arm.
Yumar took a sip of tea and raised his eyes as if he was slightly surprised.
-f*ck. Why is it so delicious and damn good?
“thank you. So what was it like in reality?”
-… Well, that’s right. I was the leader in charge of organizing the village. He had a knack for gathering kids by chance and putting them to good use. Fortune was also good.
It wasn’t just about good luck.
He was a genius.
Yumar’s [business] grew rapidly.
-He was born with good fortune.
They gathered young people from the neighborhood and formed a militia, and the organization was called by engulfing the neighboring neighborhood. Boss Yumar himself thoroughly supervised the drug manufacturing process and guaranteed quality.
Yumar’s drugs were recognized as a high-quality product and spread along the waterways along the elven ports.
“The juice of Seong-eun.”
“The powder of a scholar.”
These were all products made by Yumar.
Despite not having much talent as an Auror, Yumar had a hundred subordinates. His subordinates called him [the warrior of warriors].
At that moment, when the number of 100 people increased to 500, Yumar had an intuition.
-I had a clear feeling that if I continued like this, I would be screwed.
It was instinct.
-The Huaxia Council is generous. It’s not like selling drugs to designated ethnic groups. I don’t even care about the junkies who sell drugs to rich fairies. However, if there are 100 or 500 people in the municipal government, it is a different story.
Yumar’s organization was doing well.
-There was no evidence, no suspicion, but I just had a feeling. Now! It was clear that if we didn’t cut our losses now, we would all fall together.
Yumar gathered his friends together and spoke.
Let’s go out of business.
Friends of the same age who used to collect toll taxes together in the village have now become gang leaders and have grown fangs.
-These pigs nodded in front of me, saying they understood.
“So you folded it?”
-f*ck you. That very night, a group came and tied me up. They threatened me by telling me how to manufacture drugs. I bought all the daggers they were carrying, and they aimed them at my neck. f*ck you guys.
Yumar was busy and revealed his know-how.

He even swore that he would never seek revenge and never touch business again.
My childhood friends thought Yumar’s oath was fake.
-One right arm was blown off.
Instead, he saved his life.
The boss of the organization became ‘One-Armed Yumar’.
-I didn’t join the theater because I had a particular desire to act. I just wandered around the streets, and the theater company owner here said he felt sorry for me and let me go. It’s been 10 years. It’s all a thing of the past. Well, acting became fun.
“What happened to the organization?”
-…….
“It’s ruined.”
One-armed Yumar quietly looked down at his teacup.
-They were subjugated less than a year after I was kicked out. The council sent 13 people ranked in the top 100. All five hundred members of the organization died.
“What happened to your hometown friends?”
-I fell. Because they were executives.
Yumar twitched his nose.
“Senior, you think it’s your fault.”
-…….
“They think it’s a mistake to grow the organization too well because the senior is so outstanding. The business was running moderately. Or, if it had completely collapsed, the people in my hometown wouldn’t have died. At that time, she is blaming herself for not being able to stop the village chief.”
-f*ck.
The hobgoblin shook the remaining tea into his mouth.
-It looks good. Asshole bastards.
next.
Finally, the one-eyed actor came in.
He was holding an old lion doll in his arms.
-I was a servant from a prestigious family… .
The name of the one-eyed actor was ‘Sakum’.
-I happened to see the landlord having s*x with someone outside the house. No, I didn’t see it. I heard it through the wall. I didn’t really want to listen to it. I didn’t even bother hearing it. But they cut off my ears because they felt bad because they heard me moaning… .
One-eared Sakum muttered expressionlessly.
-Isn’t that too much?
One-eyed Arika.
Son of a gambler.
One-armed Yumar.
Former drug boss.
Sakum of the single ear.
Former servant of a prestigious family.
“is it so.”
I nodded in front of the actors.
“Let’s dance. Seniors. A week later.
The day of the play has arrived.
The place was full.
2.
-Is this theater company bullshit?
-That’s strange. I’ve been here before and it was called this… .
The crowd was crowded 30 minutes before the play started.
Audiences who came after seeing street performances and audiences who came after hearing rumors. The audience happened to pass by and came in wondering why there were so many people. Not only the VIP seats but also the standing rooms were packed.
-No watermelon beer? What about watermelon fries? Wow, I can’t believe it.
-Does this theater have any intention of making money? .
-It’s true. There is one fairy who works here and he is awesome. He used his aura so freely that he made a sound in the empty air. No, really! Why am I saying… .
-Uger. If I don’t obey who touched my butt, what you will see will not be bloodshed, but bloodshed.
-It’s a play, but he doesn’t say a single line.
-It must be an exaggerated advertisement.
-I heard they also provide refunds?
-There are too many people!
Buzz.
It’s literally a market version.
From behind the stage, seniors glanced at the audience.
-f*ck.
The seniors were very scared.
One-armed Yumar was especially nervous.
-I saw it. saw! Among the guests sitting in the special table, the person with the red tattoo is definitely Morkan, the 21st ranked member of the council. f*ck.
“Who is that?”
-He’s a crazy guy who tattooed 1cm for every piece of enemy hair he picked on the battlefield. Look at the tattoos all over that bastard’s body!
The one-eared Sakum also muttered nervously.
-Actors from the theater companies [Bulgil] and [Hippo] also came to see us.
-Ugh. Where are you?
-excuse me… Two people wearing masks in the special seating area. Even though his face is covered, I know him because I see him often. One is Sormacunda, the ace of [Fire], and the one sitting next to him is Jamahan, who is the most popular in [Fire] these days… .
-Why are they coming to see us!?
-That’s because you didn’t come to see us.
One-eyed Arika said.
Arika kept looking in the mirror to see if there was anything awkward about her makeup.
-They came to see Sonia.
Even though it was makeup, there was nothing special about it.
Bare body. A cloth was wrapped around her waist and black tattoos were made all over her body. That was it.
-that’s right. amazing. Actually, isn’t the youngest actor a new actor who was selected only a week ago? This performance is my debut. Since his first stage was filled to capacity, it was probably the biggest debut of all time among actors from the fairy tribe.
-Even if we include our species, I think it would be the greatest ever… .
“Let’s start slowly.”
I opened my mouth.
The seniors, who were trying to calm the tension by chit-chatting, suddenly stopped talking.
“I practiced to death for a week. Do not worry. It’s okay if your body suddenly stops moving or your limbs stop responding. Just lose all your strength.”
-Aren’t we going to fail…? ?
“I will control your bodies as an Auror. “Don’t force yourself to refuse for no reason.”
-It doesn’t make sense. That’s possible… No, I guess it’s possible. f*ck.
The four of us put our hands together.
I lightly sent the Auror away.
“Relax.”
Red aura flowed down the arms of the seniors.
The seniors flinched and moved their shoulders.
But have I already become accustomed to my Aura after going through special training for the past week? Soon, the seniors took a deep breath and calmly accepted the Auror. I relaxed the actors’ muscles as if massaging their entire body.
-Hmm.
-Ugor… .
The seniors’ expressions relaxed.
The atmosphere was definitely less tense than before.
“There is no need to worry. As our seniors know, there is no one out there who expects them to show their blood. My expectations are low. As long as we do what we have practiced, it will be a huge success for our customers. okay?”
The seniors nodded cautiously.
okay.
“Start.”
I stamped my foot.
Coo!
My footwork caused the air to vibrate through the aura.
-What?
-What’s going on?
The audience on the other side of the stage was surprised. At the sudden sound, the hobgoblins stopped talking and looked around. I didn’t care and kept playing with my feet.
Boom, boom! thud!
It was not simply the sound of footsteps that contained only rhythm. Every footstep had a note.
-Auror?
When the audience realized that there were certain rules to sound, they expressed surprise in a different way. Among them, the most surprised were the VIPs sitting in the front row.
-oh my god. It’s not a voice, it’s a wave sound only used by Aurors?
-right. It’s an auror. I told you, even in street performances… .
At that time, one-eyed Arika ran out.
A dark stage.
Arika spread her legs as wide as possible, like a runner, and ran wide, wide, putting distance into her steps. Naturally, the audience’s attention was focused.
Thump-
The reason why the audience’s attention was focused was not just because of the appearance of one character.
Duuuung-
Every time Arika’s feet touched the stage, a new melody filled the air.
The melody that continued as a single line expanded into a double line.
Before the audience’s confusion could subside, the one-armed Yumar and the one-eared Sakum ran onto the stage one after another.
Same thing this time too.
Every time an actor stepped on the ground, a rhythm flowed throughout the theater.
Three melodies. The three hems overlapped and the music finally began.
-oh my god.
Suddenly, the audience became quiet.
There were quite a few guests who opened their mouths, but not intentionally, but because they were muttering unintentionally.
-No way, all of that right now… .
-Are you paying this by using Aurors?
Yes.
Not the dialogue, but the music.
It’s not a play, it’s a dance drama.
I was running a one-man orchestra through Aurors.
etc,
