238 – Battle against the King of the Dead (2)

A man jumped in first and swung his sword.

Isaac placed the dagger in the giant’s hand, avoided the sword strike, and punched the man wielding the sword in the face.

In an instant, the man’s face sunk.

Kwajik!!

There was the sound of something being smashed, and the man’s body flew through the air.

Kwa Dang Tang. The body of the flying man overturned several tables, bounced on the ground, and slammed into the outer wall. The man was already passed out.

The atmosphere froze for a moment. Such a mighty force was not easily witnessed in such a rural area.

However, the gang soon calmed down. They did not know how to accurately gauge Isaac’s level of strength, so they decided to trust their size and push with numerical superiority.

Soon Isaac kicked the ground.

For a few minutes, all the noise leaked out of the bar. The sound of wooden tables and chairs being smashed, the sound of breaking glass bottles, and the sound of fighting spirit. But foremost was a scream of pain.

Alice planned to stop anyone from escaping out of the bar, but that never happened.

After a while, Alice entered the bar, which had become quiet.

“Baby, are you done?”

“yet.”

Human traffickers wrapped in ice were scattered around the messy bar. All of them had broken limbs or were bleeding profusely.

Not to mention, the cold air from the ice restraints permeated the whole body, so each member of the crew had to let out a painful groan.

Isaac was looking down at the giant with a dagger in his hand. The giant was weeping.

“Okay, I was wrong… ! Wrong! please stop… !”

Isaac resolutely twisted the dagger in the giant’s hand.

“Quaaagh!!”

The giant let out a scream mixed with crying.

“Answer, I haven’t heard yet.”

Isaac lifted his glasses once. The cold boy’s appearance instilled fear in the giant.

“Yes, sixty-five… ! I saw you 4 days ago! According to what I saw with my own eyes and the records, that much… !”

“How many people are transported every few days?”

“Every five days… ! no matter how many Because the more you do, the more money you get… !”

You’ve made quite a bit of progress. There weren’t enough sacrifices yet, but if left unattended, Isaac would have died suddenly within two weeks.

Isaac looked at Alice.

“Alice, I’m waiting for you here. Control people when they come.”

“Come on.”

Isaac created an ice restraint and restrained the giant, then headed to the basement of the bar. With [Clairsight], I already figured out the route.

There were several prisons in the gloomy basement. Only seven adults and five boys and girls were detained.

As soon as the devastated adults saw Isaac, they sent bright glares. They would do anything, so they earnestly begged to be saved.

Quaang!

Isaac smashed the prison door with a weak [Ice Explosion], and also broke the restraints that bound the prisoners in the same way.

“Go.”

“Thank you thank you… !”

They hurriedly left the basement.

Isaac then breaks down the prison door where the children are kept and goes inside. All but one of them were startled and shivered.

Isaac smiled kindly and bowed his upper body.

“It’s okay, let’s go back.”

Relief and doubt spread across the children’s terrified faces. Isaac tried to reassure the children as much as possible.

I told the children that they don’t have to be here anymore, so they can go to the pretty sister above. The children couldn’t understand the situation, but once they ran out of the prison and got out of the basement.

However, only one girl did not leave the prison as if her feet were stuck to the ground.

kid… She was a difficult girl to look at. Looking at her age, she looked like she was in her mid-teens.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Isaac waited for the other girl to get out of prison, but the girl just stared at Isaac.

Isaac couldn’t read any fear in the girl.

It wasn’t that there was no sense of reality. The girl knew exactly what situation she was in. I just don’t feel any fear.

“What are you doing not going out?”

The girl pointed to Isaac.

“He is a prince in a fairy tale.”

The girl smiled and compared Isaac, who had come to rescue her, to the prince she had seen in a fairy tale book.

Isaac considered himself rather fortunate. If you consider yourself a prince, the trauma that this incident may bring may be alleviated.

The girl wore a red cape and had a graceful appearance. However, unlike her appearance, her attire did not show any cuteness.

If he had been caught in a place like this, he would not have been a son of a high-status or wealthy family.

Isaac asked.

“You, mother?”

“He is dead.”

“What about Dad?”

“He is dead.”

“… Are you from this village?”

“no.”

“How did you come to this town?”

“I came riding a magic beast.”

“What about that witch?”

“He is dead.”

The girl answered with a smile the whole time, as if she was happy with this situation. Isaac could see that the girl’s heart was broken.

Isaac sighed and apologized for asking how his parents were. However, the girl just tilted her head and said, “Why are you sorry?”

There’s no need to explain. Isaac took the girl’s wrist without answering.

“Let’s go out at once.”

“Prince, raise your hands.”

Isaac escaped the dungeon with the girl.

* * *

“Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Bingje.”

“Please take good care of me.”

“Please leave it to me.”

The identity of the gang who used the bar as their hideout and the people they rescued from the basement were handed over to the followers of the Hellize Church who had followed them from afar.

The saintess who wanted to be a companion gave me the most trustworthy believers. Those believers all belonged to the Academy Church.

The holy kingdom of Bardio was only a place founded to separate religion and politics, and being in a position to take responsibility for the people of the empire was the same as the empire. In other words, it was better to entrust the personal affairs of the people of the kingdom to the Hellize Church, which formed the holy kingdom Bardio.

They were spread out in each of the various branches I had been informed of. It was because we had talked in advance that if my minions attacked the branch, the Hellize Church would deal with it.

Now you should head straight to the Baron of Lopenheim. I tried to get on the carriage with Alice.

Then, the Little Red Riding Hood girl approached me.

“What is the name of the prince?”

It seemed like they were trying to say goodbye before parting.

“Isaac.”

“I am ‘Mitchell’. Brother Isaac, can I give you one?”

It’s true that you call me oppa… . I felt there was no hesitation.

“What?”

Girl, Mitchell beckoned. Does that mean come closer?

When I lowered my upper body to eye level with Mitchell, the girl gently placed her hand on my forehead and closed her eyes.

“May the blessing of incarnation be with you.”

Mitchell muttered that softly and then opened his eyes again.

I didn’t really feel anything.

“What did you do?”

“I prayed for my brother.”

Mitchell smiled.

Her level and attributes were all ordinary girls. Only the psychology is read strangely because the heart is torn to pieces.

Well, let’s think in a good way.

“thanks.”

“Thank you, marry me later.”

“… … ?”

What kind of rash is this… ?

“It was love at first sight.”

The momentum to entrust her future to the man she had just seen today was quite reckless.

However, the unique innocence was felt, and a smile leaked out.

“Mitchell, marriage is not such an easy decision… .”

“baby.”

Suddenly, Alice came over and took my hand with both hands and thrust her large chest into my arms.

“Let’s go now. Don’t you have a lot of time?”

“… … ?”

I thought so anyway. “Okay, let’s go,” I said, turning my back and getting into the carriage.

“Did you say Mitchell? How could this kid… . I must have been very scared Rest assured you will be fine now. Mitchell is young, so people will take good care of him.”

Alice said kindly, stroking Mitchell’s red cape-covered hair.

The two glanced at each other. Alice smiled sweetly, and Mitchell let out a cool laugh.

I looked at Mitchell through the crack in the open carriage door and said, “Go back carefully. If you want something, tell the church.” Alice got into the carriage and the door was closed.

Soon the wagon carrying us departed.

For a while, Mitchell watched the wagon go away.

* * *

“What is this… ?”

The wagon overturned and the wheels idled. The followers of the Hellize Church lost consciousness after being subdued, and red blood flowed all around them.

Only one devotee quickly regained consciousness. He endured the intense pain in the back of his neck and looked around. It was complicated in my head, but the surrounding situation was clear.

Isaac was carrying the people he had handed over to the wagon. Then someone attacked the coachman and blew his consciousness, causing a big accident that no one expected.

Before anyone knew it, the gang that had committed human trafficking had become a cold corpse.

A groan of fear was heard along with a fluttering sound. The church member turned his head towards the sound.

A girl waving a red cape waving and walked out through a pool of blood. In both of her hands were clutching a strange hatchet from which she did not know where it appeared.

A muscular man who had lost an arm crawled on the floor to escape from the girl. However, there was no hesitation in the girl’s steps.

Little Red Riding Hood Girl, Mitchell’s golden eyes showed a radiant glow.

“Sah, live… ! help me… !”

“Don’t beg.”

Mitchell shook his head curtly and raised his axe.

“You are no different than stupid wolves.”

Kwajak.

Mitchell swung the ax like a flash.

The ax blade cut through the man’s throat and cut deep into his body. The man could not even scream properly and died shortly after.

The cape that Mitchell flutters is the color of blood. What was contained in that red cloak were dark memories and a firm oath.

Mitchell wiped the blood from his face with the back of his hand. Already used to this, she was very carefree.

These guys are wolves that eat people. Mitchell was deliberately captured by these wolves in order to reach their leader. It was intended to destroy everything.

But Isaac, it seemed the man was trying to do what Mitchell was trying to do. Then, Mitchell judged, there was no need for him to step out. Even in the middle of being locked up, I was able to realize that he was strong.

Then there was nothing left to do.

All you have to do is cut off the side branches.

Mitchell’s ax became a form of magical power and seeped into her body. She made eye contact with the cult member who had regained consciousness.

The believer swallowed up the feeling of fear that surged in like a tide and said, “Lord, please protect me, who is foolish…” .” and prayed quietly.

Mitchell ignored the believer, took off Little Red Riding Hood and left.

… …

Late at night, someone repeatedly knocked on the door of the baron’s mansion in Lopenheim.

The servant opened the door of the mansion and went out, grumbling, “Who dared to do it this night?”

The man standing in front of the door was Isaac, a blue-silver haired man. The attendant felt a sense of incongruity at the appearance that seemed to have been seen elsewhere.

“Excuse me. Do you have Baron Adrian Loffenheim?”

Isaac asked politely with a smile on his face.

Aside from the sense of incongruity, the attendant showed a dissatisfied expression on Isaac, who was looking for Baron Lopenheim in the middle of the night.
