#10 Banquet (2)

Two days passed and the day of the banquet dawned.

To explain what happened between Elric and Tyria… What else could there be?

It was the end of Elric’s enduring uncomfortable sleep because the bed arrived a day late.

Would it be possible to explain if she had endured the sensation of the nerves in her whole body being on edge at the sound of her breathing?

In the meantime, it’s another thing to resent Tyria, who slept well.

Anyway, that hardship was over.

Eventually, the bed arrived, and Elric didn’t wake up to the sound of her breathing today.

Of course, I had nightmares about the battlefield.

“Bocchan, start preparing soon.”

It’s about time for lunch.

However, Elric’s head tilted because of Aldio, who was already talking about preparations.

“Isn’t the banquet evening? What to do from now on… .”

After saying that, Elric was able to recall the imperial banquet.

“… Ah, that bastard’s leader.”

That’s what the banquet was like.

In order to look better than others, I had to dress up in new clothes, put on makeup, and do my hair for several hours before standing in the hall was a daunting task.

How annoying was this process at the banquets I attended in the past?

‘I have to do it one more time… .’

I already felt like I was shaking my head, but what can I do?

There is no other way to stop it.

In the meantime, Aldio said.

“The wanted ones have just arrived.”

“hmm? Wanted?”

“Those who will be in charge of the leader of the boy.”

“Shouldn’t you leave it to the maids?”

“Whew! Say big day! Isn’t it a royal banquet! This should be left to the professionals! Speaking of our maids, wouldn’t even the headmistress be overwhelmed!”

Aldio displayed a firm will with a big flag.

He seemed to attach great importance to this banquet, and Elric laughed.

It was because, from Elric’s point of view, Wibin’s harvest festival and banquet were not much different in terms of people gathering and buzzing.

Of course, I knew it would mean something different to Aldio.

Elric is well aware that he has always tried to accustom himself to the aristocratic life.

So Elric said.

“Even directly wanted people and suffered a lot. Then can I meet them?”

“yes! It’s just about time.”

“Good. don’t let it go.”

Elric stood up.

The first floor arrived like that.

There were people who were quite tall for a woman, smiling and wearing thick makeup.

Their eyes turned to Elric.

“Hello… .”

and,

“… peel?”

they rattled

Wolyeong, a group of assassins called the messengers of the West.

There have been only three failed missions in their history, which is the second most sad in the industry that even the marquis of the empire are killed without rumor.

The first is to assassinate the baron of Disha, who is out on an outing.

The second is to assassinate a certain commander who went to the battlefield.

The third is to assassinate a certain Youngshik who is about to get married.

It was a very insignificant failure compared to their status, but from their point of view, the incidents were like reverses.

In other words, it was fear; in other words, it was a nightmare.

It had to be.

It was because the failure of the mission had one thing in common.

-As of today, one restriction is placed on all the requests that Wolyeong undertakes.

There was one man in all three missions they failed.

-Kasha, the Sword Demon, completely exclude all missions that have even the slightest ties to him.

Sword Demon Kasha.

One of the seven powers of the continent and the strongest individual among all existing creatures.

It was he who was the demon whose notoriety rose through the skies on the battlefields of the West.

The assassination of the first baron, Kasha, who accidentally stopped by the neighborhood, slaughtered all the Wolyeongs who were on a mission at the time.

The assassination of the second commander, of course, Kasha was a mercenary in the unit operated by the commander, and because of that, one battalion of Wolyeong was annihilated.

And the last, more absurd death stood in the way of Wolyeong. Young-sik, who is getting married, must have been Kasha’s close friend. Who would have known that Kasha, who was said to never leave the battlefield, would only come to the rear for a wedding.

Anyway, after that happened, Wolyeong started avoiding Kasha.

From the time of the new recruit training, I made him memorize enough to draw his appearance even with his eyes closed, and if it was a battlefield related to him, he evacuated all the Wolyeong troops in the area, and also, considering that he would be out of his eyes, someday he asked Kasha to please stop bothering us. There was also a time when he gave a sword as a gift in the sense of Hira.

How funny was the answer that day.

-Then you shouldn’t have messed around in front of me. Why do you blame me for your death?

He was a terrible man without blood or tears.

Of course, I know how double it is to deny that statement from the point of view of an assassin, but Wolyeong that day was a victim that no one could deny.

Anyway, the executive at Wolyeong who went to meet Kasha that day felt skeptical about the work and even left the industry, so it must have been embarrassing.

Anyway, since that happened, the name Sword Demon Kasha in Wolyeong was regarded as a rebellion and became a name that no one would ever say.

When he was said to have disappeared from the battlefield, all branches held a banquet with a one-day suspension of business.

After that, it was a win-win.

Without Kasha, it’s Wolyeong’s version.

As the war rages on, more and more assassination missions come in.

It spread its influence endlessly throughout the West, and now it is time to expand its business to the East.

I came all the way here by asking for a pretty decent sponsor… .

‘… Why are you there?’

Why is Kasha here?

Wolyeong’s Ferdin branch manager, Danal, felt the hair on his body stand on end.

It was to the point of being fortunate that I came out wearing mask-level makeup because I was dressing up as a woman.

If it hadn’t been, wouldn’t the confusion have been all over the place?

‘why? why?’

I thought about it, but no answer came.

It was just Ferdin who came down to do the mission that came down from the headquarters, and in the middle of that, he came out of the assassination car, but why, here, no one else, but the sword demon Kasha.

‘mistaken?’

could it be possible

His disfigurement is clearly recognized from the first stage of Wolyeong’s training for new recruits.

Danal, who had been in charge of the training, was able to draw Kasha’s features even with her eyes closed.

No, apart from that, Danal had seen Kasha in person.

– Junior, I’m going to quit this job.

It was because he was the successor to the executive who quit the assassination out of a sense of skepticism the day he went to negotiate with Kasha.

“Well, I heard that they are experts, so I wouldn’t worry too much about it, but please avoid overdoing it. I don’t want to draw attention.”

Kasha sat down and smiled softly.

Danal felt goosebumps run down his back.

“Let’s get started. Isn’t it tight until evening?”

The adjutants who came out with the assassination looked at Danal, not knowing what to do.

Even in the fear of losing his mind, Danal regained some reason by reflecting on the education he had received as an assassin.

gave a woman’s voice.

“Now, could you wait a moment? First of all, we have to organize our tools again… .”

“Well, take it slow.”

Seeing him smile, Danal immediately turned around and huddled with his lieutenants.

Click click, she passed sign language over the spreading makeup tools.

-Neutralize all poisons.

All of the cosmetics here are poisonous.

And Kasha is a person who does not work with poison in the first place. It’s all over if you do something stupid to him and even get caught trying to assassinate him.

Perhaps the survival instinct is scary, but the lieutenants didn’t spend 3 seconds neutralizing all the poison.

Danal nodded in satisfaction.

– We don’t know. Let’s just put on makeup and leave. Haven’t you seen that person today?

And that’s not all.

-Withdraw the Ferdin branch. Why didn’t you know that the dogs were from here?

As of today, the Wolyeong Ferdin branch is closed.

No, I will definitely kill the Count before he goes.

If it hadn’t been for that, I wouldn’t have had to go through this humiliation!

The adjutants lit twin wicks in their eyes and nodded.

Right after that, Danal turned around and started responding to Kasha with a smile.

“Then let’s begin!”

“You seem very nervous.”

“It’s the first time I’ve been in charge of a noble!”

“Relax. I won’t catch you.”

From noble mtl dot com

It was really unbelievable.

Danal smiled and his commander started with his adjutants.

The process was silence itself.

Would it be understandable if Aldio, who was watching the scene from afar, exclaimed, ‘It must be the seriousness of the masters who handle the famous swords of the century!’

With the determination to live, the three assassins of Wolyeong devoted themselves to decorating Kasha with all their makeup skills.

After a few hours, Danal felt exhausted and removed his hand.

‘It’s over, it’s over… !’

It’s not a moment that suits these sentiments, but Kasha’s makeup was more perfect than ever.

The result of the most ideal peak that can be seen in the field of makeup has been cast in front of them.

Danal and his lieutenants exchanged glances.

We shared our pride, and we shared the relief that we are now alive.

‘Guys, let’s go get makeup when we retire.’

Name survival makeup.

This combination will be able to take the pinnacle of the industry.

“Is it over?”

“yes! Baron’s original version was so cool that we didn’t have much to do!”

Half empty, half sincere.

Saying that, Danal began organizing her cosmetics.

That was the moment.

“Aldio. I have a story I want to share with them, would you mind stepping aside?”

“yes!”

With a click, the butler closed the door and left.

The three assassins felt strangely uneasy.

‘no way.’

I hope it can’t be

I tried to deny it, but why did my ominous premonition always come true?

“These days, assassins have really good makeup skills. You guys also have a lot of trouble making a living.”

Kasha looked into the mirror with a satisfied expression and said that.

The lieutenants shuddered.

The tremors were also contagious to Danal.

‘when?’

Where did you get it from?

While thinking, Kasha met Danal’s eyes through the mirror.

Briskly, his eyes drew an arc.

“Wolyeong, I still remember your mana practice because it left a deep impression on me. It’s been a long time since I heard that light breathing, so it took me quite a while to judge. I’m sorry. I must have felt sorry for not recognizing you.”

That’s it.

“haha… .”

Danal smiled dejectedly.

Now the woman’s voice has been taken away.

What else could he do?

thud!

He knelt on the floor and bowed his head.

“… See you old man.”

The adjutants also bowed their heads.

“Meet the old man.”

What can I do to live?

Running away is nonsense, so it’s best to beg for your life.

“Have you been in a hurry?”

Danal made bright eyes like a puppy looking up at his master.
