Grave Keeper of the Fallen Kingdom

The building of the auction house was set on fire here and there, but the insiders were not particularly concerned about the building. This is because it is a building made of barriers, so it can be restored at any time.

The only problem was that it hurt the items inside or the customers who were invited inside.

Members of the ‘Cheonjihoe’, which managed the black market in Abitrari, were busy trying to find the culprit who caused the explosion, but it seemed that they couldn’t find the culprit easily.

“Let’s go too.”

Those whose identities were confirmed all left outside the black market barrier.

When I checked, it seemed that each entrance to the barrier was different.

Me and Frances go back to where we came in, still covered in darkness.

Although it is an inner district, the night is still cold and security is poor.

As I was walking down a shabby alley, I slowly adjusted my pace and joined Frances at the impure presence I felt at the moment.

“Don’t answer, listen carefully. We have a tailing guy. It looks like he’s trying to find a place to stay, but we can’t go to Lake.”

I spoke softly to her and casually left the alley and walked down the main street.

Even in the middle of the night, it’s hard to make a fuss on the main avenue in the inner district.

You can enter the lake as it is, but it is dangerous to expose the accommodation without knowing who the person following is and what their intentions are.

‘hmm… , I’d better go to the outskirts.’

In the inner area, the paths are neatly divided than expected, so it is difficult to escape the pursuers.

However, from the outskirts of the central area, here, the indiscriminate expansion of Abitrari and densely built buildings appear.

If it’s a maze-like place, you’ll be able to evade the pursuers.

Judging by the fact that he wasn’t raiding right now, it was clear that he was probably trying to figure out the inn.

‘Is there something I’m aiming for?’

He followed me right after the auction ended.

If so, there is a high probability that he is aiming for something I have, like Flake.

And all I have is the ashes of Sire Bundy. Even that was handed to me after Gong Sia won the bid.

But how did he know you handed it over?

There was only one person at the auction house who was aiming for the remains.

The man in the black robe who competed with me for the winning bid.

“Hey, when should I go?”

“I probably won’t. I need to catch that man.”

“what? Do you know who he is?”

A group passes through my head with the thought of no way.

Those who might be aiming for the ashes of Sire Bundy.

“Move to the Outer Zone.”

“hey!”

When I crossed the boundary of the central area and ran to the outer area, I felt that it was also urgently following me.

“Why are you doing this!”

“It’s a black magician.”

“… … what?”

The reason why I’m moving so much.

It was because warlocks were the only ones capable of targeting the remains of Sire Bundy.

‘They killed the little ones and made a tomb to gather spiritual power.’

It seemed like they were conducting an experiment, but I still don’t know what it was.

However, it is certain that they are trying to exploit spiritual power by creating specters.

If so, the ashes of Saire Bundy, which made countless continental people tremble, must be a great material for them.

‘Since there was no way that Gongxia had handed over the ashes… … .’

Naturally, through some kind of power, he figured out that I had the remains.

And those powers are likely to be black magicians who used some kind of power like Prince 1 did last time.

‘If not, it would be fortunate… … .’

Usually, most of these ominous guesses are right.

“A black magician? What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

“You remember the guy I competed with for the Sire Bundy’s ashes?”

“huh.”

“That’s him. They’re the only ones who would spend that much money and aim for the remains.”

“Why are they?”

“That’s later. Actually, I’m not sure, but if it’s true, I desperately need your strength. He won’t even know you’re a priest with stigmata.”

There was no one in between, whether it was a black magician or a black knight who had met so far.

All of them are at least a senior knight level or higher.

Not to mention, if it was to the extent of coming to the black market auction house now, it couldn’t be anything more.

In a situation where you don’t even know who I am, I’m chasing like this because I’m confident that I can win no matter who I face.

“Bless you. Because divine power is the best to deal with Magi.”

“okay.”

dark alley.

After passing through the narrow alleys between the buildings that seemed to collapse at any moment, they entered the wide open road and waited for the black magician.

that buck that buck

Unable to find a place to sleep, a group of people roaming the streets ran out from the alley ahead.

Still, unlike the broad daylight, when we are conscious of each other and cover our actions, the streets at night without a single light show a look worthy of the name of a really lawless city.

“what? you guys… … , Kheuheouk!”

The wanderer’s head fell off with the cool sound of the wind.

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!

The silhouettes that could only be seen as blurry in the darkness tangled here and there, disappeared, and began to scatter on the floor.

“it’s crazy… … .”

Large mouths and sharp teeth chewed and spit out the bodies of the homeless.

Seeing that grotesque appearance, Francis muttered with a pale face, and I gritted my teeth and took out the summoning spirit.

gulp.

Francis swallowed dryly as if his throat was burning.

After a moment of silence, the large black silhouette changed back into a human form and approached where we were.

All the robes covering him were ripped open, exposing his figure.

A rough-looking man with a shaggy beard.

Looking at his rugged body, he doesn’t look like a wizard at all.

‘Status window.’

[Grant]

– Attributes: Devil’s stigma, gluttony

– Skill: Fierce Tiger Fist (猛虎拳)

– Strength: 27.1

– Agility: 25.3

– Stamina: 28.0

– Sense: 22.4

– Energy: 18.9

‘This crazy… … .’

This level is close to master level.

No, it’s master level.

Moreover, seeing that he has the devil’s stigma, there is no need to think about it anymore, he is a martial artist belonging to the Black Castle.

‘Damn it, I can’t beat this.’

I thought it would be at the top of a high-ranking knight, but a master-level?

“Francis, change of strategy.”

“uh? Why all of a sudden?”

From nob le mtl dot com

Grant approaching little by little.

We backtracked to match his steps.

“After waiting patiently, why did you suddenly change your attitude?”

There is laughter in the man’s low, greasy voice. I feel like I’m not as hostile as I thought.

“Ooh, we have no intention of fighting.”

“why? Are you after us?”

I pretended not to know anything.

“There is only one reason. The remains of that ‘Sire Bundy’ you have. give it away.”

“All right.”

Without hesitation, he tossed the entire load next to him onto the floor.

It’s not the time to waste things like this.

If the man knew who I was, he wouldn’t let me go, but if not, the possibility was worth taking a bet on.

“hmm… … . That sounds right.”

He opened the wooden box, sniffed the smell of the remains inside the pocket, and nodded.

“Then may I go?”

“hmm… … .”

He was salivating as if in agony, then suddenly showed his teeth and laughed ferociously.

“No way.”

“Damn it. Bounce!”

Francis and I hurriedly rushed into the alleyway.

The sound of the footsteps following him wasn’t very loud, but after seeing his abilities, I felt that he wasn’t chasing but that he was relaxed, and I got goosebumps.

Shhhhh!!

A short spear that gallops through the air with a harsh roar.

“Suck!”

Even though I twisted my body to avoid the javelin, the harsh shockwave passed by, scratching my skin.

Quaang!!

There was a loud roar that woke everyone who was sleeping here, and the ground shook.

However, there were no signs of turning on the windows tightly closed around and the lights inside the dim interior.

“Come this way!”

While running down the alley, a short spear flew in again.

“blessing!”

Francis hurriedly blessed my words, and at the same time I swung my sword while infusing spiritual power into the first soul.

Kaaa!!

Thanks to the accurate strike on the side of the dagger, the spear spun around and stuck into the wall of the building.

The power is so strong, it makes my hands tingle even more.

‘Damn it, there’s no answer at this point.’

The night is still long, and there is no way to escape from a master class opponent here.

However, there are people who can help us at this time… … ,

‘hmm?’

Something pure white peeking through the buildings passing by quickly.

Isn’t that the soul protruding through the outer wall of the building?

– Tsk, what’s the noise? Things that could all be destroyed with a single stab.

A specter that appeared out of nowhere looked at Frances and muttered.

‘What is my confident attitude?’

There is no way that a dead person great enough to beat a master class is sleeping in such an abandoned back alley.

But what if he really happened to be a former master who was sleeping here?

‘I can’t believe it, but I want to believe it.’

There was no way out of the current situation.

If you go on like this anyway, you might get caught by Grant and die.

“Here!”

“uh? Are you coming here all of a sudden?”

The entrance to the building was a plain wooden door.

After infusing spiritual power into the chohon and swinging it, the hinge was cut off and fell.

As soon as you open the door, a strong stench hits you.

The first floor was the interior of a normal house, with creaky wooden floors and dusty furniture that hadn’t been maintained in a very long time.

– Why is this madman suddenly destroying someone else’s house?

It looks like there’s probably a tomb upstairs, as the ghosts protrude from above.

I carefully climbed the half-broken stairs and reached the second floor, where I saw a small side door.

“What the hell are you looking for?”

“Follow me at once.”

After crouching down and going through the side door, a fairly large space appears.

What the hell was the structure of this building, it was a form of a house made inside the building.

“What is this… … .”

Kwaaang!!

A roar from below.

It was as if Grant broke through the wall and entered the building.

‘Damn it, I don’t have time to check the tomb.’

There could have been a worse situation than asking that specter for a commandment.

So I wanted to at least check his grave… … , there seems to be no time for that.

“you! What is your name?”

I asked, pinpointing the ghost that had crossed the wall after us.

– what? are you looking at me

“Yes, I ask directly. Are you strong?”

– what? hehehe. Here comes the funny guy. Are you strong? of course! There’s no one I can’t kill if I set my mind to it.

The appearance of the specter, obscured by darkness, was that of a fairly old man.

Can I really believe it?

– You didn’t recognize this ‘Col Ross’. Well, everyone who knows me is dead, so is it natural? Heh heh.

‘Can I really trust you… … ?’

It seems that I am half mad. Col Ross, a name I had never really heard before.

“I am a master class martial artist. Can you win?”

– Master level? Huh… … , It won’t be easy if you’re a martial artist.

“what are you doing? What’s wrong all of a sudden?”

Francis asks urgently, holding my arm.

coo goo-.

sound getting closer.

There is no time.

‘It can’t be helped.’

[Code – Kolos]

I immediately used the code on Kolos.

Kolos entered my body with a bewildered face.

“this… what?”

– It entered my body. I have the power to temporarily cast a specter on my body. There’s a monster right now…

aaa!!

The whole ceiling of the house with the side door burst and disappeared.

It’s hard to see because there’s no light, but there’s a lot of dust flying around, covering all directions.

“Even if you hide, do you hide in a place that smells like this? I tried to send you to the other world in a good way, but it won’t work.”

“Le, Ren!”

Francis looked for me with a pale face, but no one was there.

“Hey, hey? where did you go?”

While she panicked and wandered through the darkness, Grant came closer and grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up.

“Your friend must have run away, leaving you behind. hahahaha!”

“this… Let go of this!”

puck!

She raised her divine power and struck him on the head.

From nob le mtl dot com

Grant’s face was sharply contorted because the blow was quite strong.

“He was a bastard of God.”

When he opened his mouth, black liquid gushed out.

It grew in size in an instant and transformed into a huge mouth.

“Don’t eat me away.”

At that moment, in the darkness, the gray eye light creates a short flash, leaving a shallow afterimage.

hooked!

And the flash went straight into Grant’s heart.

“Kuhhh… … . No matter how strong it is, a single blow from a knife will kill it all… … .”
