LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 80.7: Black tower part 2
The interview was over after a while.
“Thank you for such a valuable story.”
Francesca bowed and went to leave. When she did I heard what sounded like a fly buzzing behind me and turned around.
“What?”
A large man with white hair was about to swing his claws at me, so I grabbed him by the throat.
“Gah!”
“That was sudden.”
A beast person, polar bear? I threw him and he rolled on the ground before standing up. I felt bloodlust in another direction and reached out, grabbing another person by the neck and doing the same thing again.
“Two polar bears….”
The two of them were glaring at me.
“Are you Nito?”
I heard a voice behind me, so I turned around. A black haired man with a messy perm sat on the stairs.
“Stupid dwarf mask, surrounded by girls. Yeah it’s you.”
I looked at Francesca, I was pretty sure I told her not to write about my companions. She shook her head, does that mean that it wasn’t her?
“Why do you know who I am?”
Fearless smile, jacket and earrings, with messy black hair.
“……”
He switched his eyes to the polar bears, immediately after they began to approached from the sides. I stepped forward between, them, activated 《God Speed》and slammed them down.
By defeating “Jackson Frederick [Lv: 41]”, the unique skill “Goddess’s Blessing” was activated. Choose your loot
By defeating “Samuel Frederick [Lv: 42]”, the unique skill “Goddess’s Blessing” has been activated. Choose your loot.
I created two headless corpses as announcements went off in my head.
“Hahahahaha, a masterpiece!”
The man stood up.
“Where is your magic power? I can’t feel it?”
Even though his friends died, this man was smiling like he was crazy.
“Don’t feel bad, they attacked you first.”
“Why would I feel bad. It’s your responsibility to judge the ability of your opponent properly.”
I had no appreciation for his words.
“Are you really….”
Francesca seems to have an idea who he is, she looks afraid.
“Do you know this guy?”
“Theres no mistake, that’s Raj Cots, the kings shield.”
“King’s shield?”
“Its said that these three protect the emporer. Although there are plenty of knights in the kingdom the emporer released a statement saying that three far surpassed the others.”
“And that was the kings shield? ”
“However the people in the king’s shield were never revealed so it was thought that the emporer lied to give the impression of power.”
So in other words they were thought to not exist but actually existed.
“Oh as expected of the magical communication newspaper, seems like you know about me.”
Raj seemed to be praising her.
“Gorge city pulse Terra, we found out about you then.”
“You have a good memory huh.”
Raj smiled.
“Whats pulse terra?”
Raj sat down surprising Francesca.
“You don’t have to be so on guard, I like hearing about myself.”
“He’s the former court mage of the gorge city Pulse Terra.”
Raj grinned.
“Oh I miss those days, the view at night was amazing.”
Raj smiled up at the sky.
“Oh maybe I’ll go some day then.”
“Thats not possible.”
Raj said still smiling.
“I already destroyed the country.”
“Destroyed?”
His smile grew eerie.
“I see, that’s what you mean.”
“Man it was fun, do you know the face someone makes when they’re killed by someone they thought was a friend?”
“You have a bad hobby.”
“Was it a friend or an enemy? You’re confused and about to die and by the time you realize who it is bam, dead.”
This guy’s insane.
“So, in other words you betrayed your country and went over to the empire?”
“No, I was with the empire to begin with.”
“I see.”
Francesca solved my misunderstanding.
“10 years ago the emporer announced the shield, 5 years later this man infiltrated the country. He then took it down and returned to the empire where the emporer announced that he was from the empire the entire time.”
“And I have proof, my real name is Raj Derms Kale.”
“Derms Kale?”
It’s something that I first heard back in Razhousen but I didn’t have much interest in it. Then I heard it again from Khalifa. Derms Kale empire, although it’s not the empire from back when she was active.
“Why is Derms Kale still around?”
“Lord Nito, Derms Kale is the name of an empire in this Era as well.”
Sufilia answered.
“What are you talking about? What do you mean by this era?”
Raj stood up.
“Hmm? Oh nothing, for now it’s enough for me to just know you’re crazy.”
“How mea~n, I’m not crazy. Although I did feel close to you.”
He faked a depressed appearance.
“Why are you targeting me?”
“If you don’t ask you’ll never know right? Well since you made a move against the empire, they talked about killing you. And since I was free they sent me.”
“I see, but it’s not possible for you.”
I’m not overconfident it’s just his magic power is only at the same level as Siegs.
“I just came to challenge the dungeon.”
“I see so you think that I’m an annoyance? If I kill one of your friends will you get serious then?”
The next moment Raj seemed to disappear to everyone but me. He appeared in front of Toa and attempted to swing a purple knife down into her.
“Guaaa!”
I appeared between them and knocked his arm away. He put distance between us as he held his bleeding right arm. I saw fear in his expression.
“Everyone fall back, I’ll take care of him.”
“Guh, as expected Nito, I couldn’t see you at all.”
“Did you want to die here?”
“Haha, that doesn’t sound like a joke, how scary.”
“I’m completely serious.”
This guy had really tried to kill Toa.
“You’re a nuisance.”
“Thats my line, I still think I’m strong but in front of you…”
Suddenly Raj’s expression changed, he looked terrified.
“You… what’s that eye?!”
“What?”
“Stay away! ”
Raj hurried away from me.
“Stay away! 《Curse ball》”
He fired a purple ball at me.
“No, no no! 《Dark Hammer》!”
A giant purple ball appeared and flew towards me.
“Oh, he uses spells fast. 《Soul Break》”
When his magic disappeared Raj was even more frightened.
“Stay away!”
“Oh right, what are you going to do with Razhousen? It’s a peaceful country so why did you attack it?”
“Don’t come any closer!”
“All I’m doing is asking a question?”
“《Teleport》!”
“Huh?”
Suddenly Raj disappeared leaving the two polar bear corpses behind.
