Chapter 531
Raon naturally rolled her eyes and checked the movements of the man called the foreman.
His wobbly gait with his hands behind his back and his expression as if he was suspicious of strangers amidst his friendliness. It was the appearance of a middle-aged man who could be found anywhere.
However, the foreman kept his heels slightly raised so that he could step on foot at any time, and his waist, as thick as a wagon wheel, was erected so that he could avoid any attack.
‘It’s a characteristic of an assassin belonging to the shadows.’
While acting as a false figure, the tendencies of assassins belonging to the shadows who were educated to perform the role of an assassin at any time were felt in the work foreman.
“Then, please take good care of my village chief.”
The foreman gave a kind smile and nodded his head. She sent a searching gaze with her pupils wide open, but of course it was acting.
“Now, stop resting and everyone come out. I have to finish!”
As he clapped his hands and shouted into the factory, the door opened and workers poured out.
Standing behind the village chief, Raon opened the windshield and quickly checked the movements of the workers.
‘six.’
There were 7 assassins out of the 50 or so workers who came out now, and all of them were masters who could perfectly hide their presence.
‘As expected, this is the receptionist’s factory.’
There is no way that seven assassins were put in an ordinary factory with no unmanned personnel. It was clear that somewhere around here was hiding a factory that made hydrants.
‘Where are you?’
In order to find the location of the factory, I used the senses of the ring of fire and tales. Mana was sculpted in the form of several strands of thread and scattered onto the floor so that no one could feel it.
I went down pretty deep, but I didn’t feel anything. It seemed like it might have been a special magic installed, or it could have been made deeper, or it could be both.
oh oh
As Raon spread mana not only downstairs, but throughout the factory, a young woman who appeared to be a secretary walked out of the foreman’s room.
“Captain. Do not think about making others do things for you, but take care of yourself first.”
The calm secretary with freckles on the bridge of his nose waved papers and beckoned us to come into the room.
“I’m just comfortable being in front of the furnace… .”
“Then the captain is only late for work.”
“Oh, there is no pleasure in life… .”
The foreman sighed deeply and entered his office. The secretary bowed to the other workers and followed them.
‘That woman is also an assassin.’
It is also stronger than men.
You can tell just by looking at the steps. The helplessness and experience of the woman who appeared to be a secretary was far above that of the foreman. She was a secretary on the outside, but that woman would be much higher in the hierarchy inside the shadow.
‘and… .’
The road to the consignee’s factory was in that office.
Just a moment ago, when the secretary came out, she felt a very light breeze blowing from inside. There was no way a shady, damp wind, as if it came from the basement, could flow in the windowless room, so it was clear that the place was connected to a factory that makes signers.
‘It’s decorated properly.’
Instead of placing assassins separately, instead of placing a large number of workers as assassins, it became possible to monitor the surroundings naturally. It seemed that the size of the Suhwagae factory was larger than expected.
“How is it?”
While Raon was looking down at the floor and squinting his eyes, Chief Berric approached.
“It’s a little hard for me to say, but it’s a great place to work. You will have a lot to gain when you come.”
“I guess so.”
Raon met the village chief’s benevolent eyes and nodded.
‘I definitely gained a lot thanks to that.’
I found out how I was kidnapped, caught the shadow assassins, and figured out that there was a passage to another place in the foreman’s room.
The village chief says it’s a long way, but thanks to that, things that would have taken a lot of time ended quickly. I was just grateful in many ways.
“thank you.”
Raon sincerely bowed his head to the village chief.
“Hehe, if you’re so grateful, come back. It’s rare to find someone who listens to me as well as you do.”
The village chief gestured, saying that when you grow old, you will have no one to talk to.
“Now, let’s go see the mine before it’s too late. It’s time for the miners to come out soon, so that’s perfect.”
He led me to the mountain to go to the mine.
* * *
“Do you really need to go at this late hour?”
“The schedule is tight.”
Raon gave the village chief a calm smile.
“So how was our town?”
“The people are kind, and it seems like a comfortable place to live. It’s a nice place.”
“yes?”
The village head rolled up his lips as if he was in a good mood after hearing the village’s praise.
“If you know that, come quickly and get a seat. I will be waiting for you.”
“All right. I will definitely come back.”
Raon said something different in meaning from the village chief’s thoughts and kept his mouth shut.
“I will be waiting.”
“then.”
Raon bowed his head to the village chief and left Capoli Village.
‘He’s a kind person.’
The village head gave us a room to sleep after taking a tour of the mine. Except for his talkative nature, he was the kind of benevolent and friendly person you would find anywhere.
‘I need to make sure they don’t get as much damage as possible.’
As I was walking on a darkened road thinking of a way to deal with only those who make shadows and callers and not harm the village, I felt a very small presence like a grasshopper in the back.
‘Does it come after me?’
It was the look and movement I felt a while ago, so I couldn’t help but notice it. The foreman was following behind.

‘I got a dirty spot once.’
On the outside, I wanted to show a village with a friendly atmosphere that no one could suspect by using ordinary people who don’t know what mana is, and on the inside, I wanted to hit Derus and the shadow guys who were doing garbage using corpses to make assassins with a mace.
‘Whoa… .’
Raon forcibly suppressed the anger burning inside him and continued on the road with calm steps. Even though he was walking halfway around Mount Haro, the assassin behind him did not know that he would fall.
‘There are more doubts than I thought.’
If you do something weird, you’re going to kill me right away.
Considering that all the assassins at the iron ore factory seemed to have a lot of experience and skill as a manager, it seemed that they were investing quite a lot in receiving customers.
‘I’ll make all of your investments go to waste.’
Raon twitched his mouth, recalling the expression of Derus we will see later. As he continued to walk, pretending not to know anything, he ended up passing over Mount Haro to an unknown lake. It wasn’t until then that the foreman’s presence completely disappeared.
‘It bothers me.’
The distance was farther than I thought, but it didn’t matter. It’s not that far if you step on foot.
Raon went into the bush. He opened the chamber, made sure no one was there, and took off his robe. He wore a plain dagger at his waist, and covered his face with a mask.
As I prepared to break into the factory, I saw Lars floating in the air without saying anything.
‘Why are you so quiet today?’
-What do you need to say?
Lars asked with sunken eyes.
‘I’m not going to ask you to eat, I’m sure you have some questions?’
When the memories of my mother and father came to my mind, my emotions surged out of control. He couldn’t have felt it, but Lars didn’t say anything.
– I would have said it once before.
Lars’ light blue eyes narrowed.
-The original king does not dig into the weaknesses of others.
The boy nodded slowly and looked away.
-If one day comes the day you want to tell me, say it with your mouth.
Lars let out a serious voice as if the usual insectivores were lying.
-The king will just listen.
“under!”
Raon sighed, covering his eyes with his hands.
‘I didn’t expect the tip of my nose to frown because of you.’
After sniffing once, I looked at Lars.
‘I’m hungry for alcohol.’
– This king doesn’t like alcohol.
‘Shall we have a drink after this work?’
-The king doesn’t like it!
‘You choose the snacks.’
– It’s Cole!
* * *
The foreman’s office fell into darkness.
The owner of the room, the foreman, was prostrate on the floor, and his secretary was sitting on a chair with her legs crossed.
“Is he gone?”
Outwardly, she plays the role of a secretary, but in reality, Lesia, the leader who controls the shadows here, gave a chin.
“yes. I checked and returned from Lake Shure.”
“What’s special?”
“There was nothing special about it other than a little faster walking speed.”
The foreman lowered his head as he reported.
“Didn’t you ever feel like you noticed?”
“There was none at all. It seemed that she hadn’t mastered the martial arts itself.”
“Hmm… .”
Lesia frowned and patted her chin.
“Why is that?”
“I didn’t feel very good when I saw him, but I guess I was mistaken.”
She waved her hand, saying never mind.
“Good work. Let me go back.”
“yes.”
The foreman nodded and left his office.
“… … .”
Lecia stayed still for a long time while sitting on the chair, then walked to the wall on the left. As she tapped the wall next to her bookshelf with her fingers wrapped around her mana, a hole opened in the floor without a sound.
Swoop.
I could only see one stairway directly below, and the bottom was as dark as the abyss, but Lesia went inside without hesitating at all.
The stairs were high and deep. Even though Lesia was walking so fast that it was difficult for ordinary people to catch up, she did not easily reveal the end. It wasn’t until after she went down for more than 10 minutes that her steps ended and she could get her feet to the floor.
It was a strange space filled with gloomy purple light and strange patterns filling the ceiling and floor.
Woo woo woo.
Stepping on the patterns on the floor in sequence, Lesia exited the space and entered the long hallway. After walking for a long time and reaching the end of the corridor, a cavity filled with bright light was revealed.
“The corpse was not detonated. Come this way.”
“Is it not finished yet?”
“Move quickly, quickly!”
In the wide, deep cavity, necromancers in purple robes were busily wandering around, and around them were piles of corpses, flesh, and bones reeking of rotting stench.
There were people who looked fine on the outside, but when they turned over, all of their vertebrae were missing, or instead of bones, there were cases where they were filled with necromancy-infused molten iron.
It was a sight that would make even a human who had gone through the war sicken, but no one here thought it strange. Some people ate and assemble the flesh like toys, while others ate food next to it.
“… … .”
Lesia entered the room in the middle of the joint with an expressionless expression.
“Shupell.”
She approached the young man in the black robe and bowed her head.
“What happened?”
The man who used the bizarre magic spell looked away with a smile. Contrary to his clean appearance, his voice was melancholy and sharp.
“The traveler who came to the village a while ago has returned. I didn’t see anything unusual… .”
“I would have told you to take care of that. Please don’t waste your time with useless things.”
He shook his head and said not to bother.
“There is one more.”
Lecia pursed her lips while maintaining an expressionless expression.
“They say support will come in two days. It’s the largest scale so far, so I think we should prepare in advance.”
“hmm!”
When I said that I would be back in two days, Shupell’s face smiled.
“Did you say two days?”
A skinny old man stood up from the desk opposite Spell with a gloomy aura. It was a sweet voice, like honey.
“Juran-nim was there too.”
Lesia bowed her head to the old man.
“How big is the largest? body? Are you alive?”
“It is said that both the test subjects and materials come in triplicate.”
“Three times? You’ve come to your senses now! okay. That should be enough!”
Juran smiled broadly as if he liked it.
“Juran-nim, have some formality. It’s because the person called the monstrosity commander is so frivolous.”
Supel looked at Juran and frowned.
“Unlike you, aristocrat, I didn’t learn. Never mind.”
“You better learn now. If our work goes according to plan, you will be able to go out into the world again.”
“You want to go out even more after you say that?”
“… … .”
The two necromancers glared at each other and wrinkled their faces, and Lesia didn’t say anything as if she was familiar with them.
But all three did not know. Red eyes flashing above their heads.
* * *
Raon narrowed his eyes while standing on the ceiling.
‘Were Shupell and Juran here?’
Jade Face Ghost Spirit Supel and Gossip Commander Juran are all high-ranking necromancers who made a name for themselves decades ago.
I thought they were both dead because they couldn’t be seen, but I didn’t know they were hiding in a place like this and continuing their research.
It was annoying to have two high-ranking necromancers like that, but Derus Robert’s ability was real.
‘By the way, they said that a lot of supplies would come in two days… .’
There is no reason that the supply is common food or weapons. Looking at the story of the experiment, it was clear that there were people who were still alive.
‘It would be best to hit it then.’
If you raid this factory after receiving all supplies, you will be able to inflict the most damage to Derus.
Now was the time to be patient even when angry.
“I’ll just go back.”
Lecia bowed her head to the two necromancers and left the room.
Raon followed her out of the room and looked at the public view again.
‘There aren’t many masters, but there are a lot of high-ranking assassins.’
The only person visible in the joint now is the necromancer, but in reality there were more assassins than them hiding here and there.
‘I have to figure out all of this place.’
The more information, the better, because you don’t know if you’ll be fighting head-on or competing with assassination.
It maximizes the sense of spirit by using the ring of fire and the sense of tales.
He figured out in detail where and how well the assassins were hiding, and where the stealth magic and protection magic were installed.
After examining the entire cavity in more detail than the assassins living here, Raon turned his gaze to the floor.
‘It’s empty below this too.’
I felt that there was another space underground, probably because the stealth magic engraved on the ceiling didn’t work underneath.
As I was waiting for someone to guide me, I saw a middle-aged necromancer moving toward the right wall. As he manipulated the wall, a staircase leading down opened.
‘As expected, it’s over there.’
I followed the necromancer. Unlike coming down here from the factory, there were not many stairs and it was very wide.
As soon as the necromancer descended the stairs, he walked down the hallway with a familiar step. People were imprisoned on both sides of the hallway, but they all seemed to have stopped breathing, and they couldn’t feel any vitality.
-To insult the dead is to be insulted even in the demon realm!
Lars couldn’t hold back his anger and his clenched fists trembled.
– Damn bastards!
‘As you said, humans might be more evil than demons.’
Raon nodded briefly, empathizing with Lars’ anger.
“Come out.”
As the necromancer gestured into the air, two assassins rose from the floor.
“How many ingredients are left?”
“Nothing is alive right now, only forty-four are dead.”
The assassin answered without hesitation.
Raon bit his lip.
‘As expected, the material meant people.’
Judging from the fact that they said they were both alive and dead, they were considering humans as experimental materials.
‘Whoa… .’
In order to endure what he wanted to kill right away, he clenched his fists with both hands and gave strength.
“It is said that a large amount of supplies will arrive in two days. Put the half up.”
“All right.”
The assassins opened the barricades and beckoned, and the corpses came out on their feet and stood limp.
‘It’s moving?’
The corpses’ eyes moved as if they were alive, and they didn’t smell bad. It seemed that they were manipulating it with necromantic magic.
‘It’s awful.’
This was the nest of demons who did not see humans as human beings. I collected information while holding back from feeling nauseous.
The necromancer watched as the corpses walked towards the stairs before turning his back. He didn’t go down the stairs, but walked down the aisle on the other side.
Raon followed the necromancer, not the corpse.
The necromancer gave himself a movement speed increase magic, and after walking for a long time, he stopped in front of a wall that seemed to have been dug up.
As he placed his hand on the wall and infused mana, the ceiling cracked open, revealing a hazy night sky that seemed to be reflected in water.
“Boring. How long should I stay here?”
The necromancer looked up at the night sky and started smoking a cigarette.
Raon looked up with even more restraint so as not to be caught by the necromancer’s senses.
‘here is… .’
that lake?
Judging from its location, it looked like an unknown lake that appeared as soon as it passed Mount Haro.
‘It was here.’
I was transporting supplies here.
Since the supply route was built in the center of the lake, no one would have known.
‘Now that we have gathered all the necessary information… .’
Red lightning flashed above Raon’s eyes, which contained the transparent night sky.
‘I’ll see the end in two days.’
