[ Episode 371. Shaiya Desert]
Located in the southern part of the continent, the Shaiya Desert was one of the lands called the Demonic Realm. However, it was different from other demonic realms, and one of them was that people lived there.
“two people! Recruiting two more!”
Nelfir, an oasis located on the outskirts of the desert.
At the tavern there, bargaining for mercenaries was long overdue.
“Anyway, Confederate mercenaries are a bit like that.”
“The Empire doesn’t recruit? Well, if it’s an empire, they’ll be enough.”
“hey! How many did you say you were looking for? two people?”
There were various human groups gathered, including not only the natives of the desert, but also mercenaries who visited to search for the demonic world, and merchants who quickly crossed the north and south.
bang!
“hmm?”
The door to the tavern opened wide with a roar.
The tumultuous interior quickly became quiet, and I looked at the people entering.
“He is the son of the chieftain.”
“What brought you here again?”
Bubak, the successor of the Black Scorpion tribe, one of the desert tribes in this area, appeared with his attendants.
He waved a hand full of rings, looking more like a merchant than a son of a chieftain.
“Hmm. Go through it.” “Yes!”
At the sudden order, the people in the bar opened their eyes wide, unable to grasp the situation.
“What are you doing!”
“Isn’t this bastard let go of this?”
Soon there was a commotion and the tavern became a mess. Bubak, who watched the scene, smoked a pipe and screamed.
“Do these insignificant bastards dare to make a fuss? If you don’t get down on your knees right now and cooperate, I’ll just cut you down.”
People were taken aback when they saw Bubak coming out of the house. Among them, there were mercenaries who stood up as if they were offended, but ordinary people who came simply to have a meal trembled with anxiety and knelt down.
“Let’s hear the reason! What the hell do you want?”
Bubak turned his head at someone’s cry.
However, when he confirmed that the person asking the question was not the person he was looking for, he just looked around without answering.
“What disrespect is this! We will no longer be patient!”
Eventually, one of the impatient mercenaries pulled out a weapon, and Bubak smiled slightly.
“How dare you draw your sword in front of me?”
“Then you are just being persecuted for no reason!”
“Persecution? What have I done? I’m just looking for people.”
Bubak glanced at the attendants and pointed at the mercenaries who drew their weapons.
“They are a bunch of wicked people who dare to try to break me. Kill them all.”
At Bubak’s command, the people who were stranded in the tavern turned white. At a glance, it seemed that the mercenary group of only five or so would crumble quickly, as there were far too many attendants in Bubak. In the tense atmosphere
,
a sound broke the silence.
“hmm?”
When Bubak looked back, there were new people coming into the tavern.
“I’m sure you told me not to let anyone in?”
In spite of Bubak’s words, the newcomers quietly walked towards the empty seats, covering their faces with hoods.
“Hey, can’t you hear me?”
“Did you tell me?”
When Bubak spoke again, one of the silent party stopped and turned to stare at Bubak.
“Huh-up!”
For a moment, Bubak, who saw the demon-like shape, fell down in fright. Seeing this, the attendants rushed to escort Bubak.
“what? Why are you doing that?”
“Did you do something? Didn’t you see anything?”
As the crowd roared, Bubak, who had come to his senses, shouted with a reddened face.
“Everyone kill that guy right now!”
“yes!”
Slave-like attendants took out the curved blades unique to desert culture and charged at the man who stood still.
“flaw.”
The man’s face hidden under the hood was revealed.
He was laughing like he was having fun.
And then he lifted one of his legs…
his chin.
Whoops——–!
“uh?”
“Where did everyone go?”
I only had to stomp my foot once, and all the attendants who rushed at me burst out. The thoughts of the people inside the tavern could not keep up with the unrealistic sight.
“Is everything gone? So are you going to go out and kill me now?”
The hood lifted, revealing the man’s figure.
The man with clean gray hair smiled and approached Bubak.
“Ah ah…”
“How should I kill this lively bastard to spread rumors that I killed him well?”
At that time, the group of men who had settled down without paying attention to the commotion asked.
“What would you like for Salem’s meal?”
“Salem?”
Upon hearing the name, Bubak muttered involuntarily with a pale complexion.
“Sa Salem Yedidiah?”
“Where are you blaspheming my name?”
“Huh! I’m sorry!”
There was nothing to believe or do.
Because the single performance he showed just a moment ago showed that whether or not he was the real Salem didn’t matter.
“What is your name?”
“This is Bub Babak Hushang.”
“Yeah Bubba. It’s fate that we ended up like this, so let’s have a meal together.”
Suddenly, Bubak was relieved by Salem’s friendly words, but soon realized that it was too early to be relieved by the expression on the other person’s face.
Salem was looking at Burbak with an expression contemplating how to kill the bug he had caught.
“Salem.”
“Okay, okay. You can just do something roughly, what are you calling it like that?”
Salem, whose name was called once more, grabbed Bubak with one hand, lifted it up, and walked toward the table.
“Please save me!”
“A guy who used to say he’ll kill me carelessly, doesn’t he think his life is precious? ha ha ha.”
Tuong!
Salem, who put the burbak down next to him, immediately shouted toward the kitchen.
“Bring the beer!”
“Yes yes!”
The owner of the tavern, which had been sitting there, went inside to get a beer.
“Looking at what you did, you seem to be putting in quite a bit of energy here. What are you doing?”
“I am the son of Musid Husham, the chief of this region.”
“You were the chieftain’s son. Anyway, those who are not cheap are definitely these noble scumbags.”
“Watch out for Salem Yedidiah.”
Evan, who lowered the cloth covering his face to block the sandstorm, gave a warning. When he saw Salem’s gaze toward Adrias, Evan noticed that the intention of the words was impure.
“why. Shall we have a round?”
“Salem.”
When Adrias called his name in a low voice again, Salem made a look on his face, wondering what he would do if he stopped him. But without further trouble, the attention turned to Burbak.
“But what were you doing here?”
“I was looking for someone to buy.”
“person? who?”
“I was looking for information that a girl with opal-colored eyes and silvery-white hair had entered the desert.”
At Burbak’s words, Salem and the others looked at each other. Then Salem asked again.
“Why were you looking for it?”
“……We are preparing an exchange meeting with other tribes, but we need a slave to be proud of.”
“what? slave? Fuhahaha!”
Salem finally couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter.
Then Bubak, not knowing why he was laughing, trembled with anxiety with a puzzled look on his face.
“Sorry. I will never be cocky again. Please, just live.”
“Hey, you know my name, but don’t you know the one with opal eyes and silvery white hair?”
“yes?”
“Hey, it’s fine anyway. The person you were looking for is here.”
As Salem smiled, Bubak tilted his head. Thinking they were making fun of him, he opened his mouth when he saw a girl pulling back his hood.
“Oh no…….”
“Did you find me?”
Luna laughed and said to Bubak.
Bubak, who did not know that the person he was looking for was Salem Yedidia’s group, banged his head on the table with a pale face.
thud!
“sorry! Please forgive me for my stupidity!”
“Ahaha! They tried to enslave me! This is my first time ever!”
Bubak thought he was done.
Even if he was in the same situation, he would not have forgiven him, much less the opponent was the infamous Salem Yedidia’s party.
“You don’t know who I am?”
“May I ask for your respect?”
“and! You really don’t know me!”
At that time, the other people in the bar who confirmed Luna’s appearance whispered.
“Lu Luna Pendragon.”
“What the hell is going on here, Luna Pendragon in Salem Yedidiah?”
Most of the sound came from the mouths of the mercenaries, but it was so loud that even Bubak could hear it.
‘Luna…… Pendragon?’
It was a name I had vaguely heard of.
What is certain is that the owner of that name is a warlock class black magician.
‘I’m dead.’
Why didn’t I find out more?
If it was the root of the problem, it was the fact that he acted as usual because he was just fascinated by his good looks that had been heard through rumors.
“I am pretty!”
Luna put her hand on her waist with a triumphant expression. At that unique gesture, Morne smiled and loved her granddaughter, and Adrias smiled slightly.
……Maximin was still choosing the menu.
“I am so beautiful! oh my god! It’s the first time I’ve ever seen someone so beautiful!”
Salem lightly touched Bubbak who was talking. However, the power contained in it was enough to make Bubak suffer.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Didn’t you say you were the chief’s son?”
“gibberish?!”
Luna glared at Salem with a shocked face, but he didn’t mind.
“Good. I still needed information about this place, but the chief would know this and that, right?”
“I, my father, know everything that happens in this desert! If you have any questions, I will get them right away!”
Burbak desperately stressed his need. A faint hope that he could live if he proves his usefulness began to appear to him.
“Why are you asking for that? The Chief said he knew.”
“I did it because I thought I would be able to serve you more comfortably if you were with me. After all, I can be useful to get the right information!”
“what. Are you threatening that if I kill you right now, I won’t get proper information?”
“Oh no, that’s not it…”
Salem poked a mischievous but murderous face.
“I know that there are quite a few other tribes besides yours in this desert. It’s enough to just kill someone like you.”
“Please save me!”
Then something flashed in Bubba’s mind.
Was the survival instinct exercised at the thought that he could die? He looked not at Salem, but at the man who had called Salem’s name with his hood still on.
“Please, I will do whatever you want. If you want information, I will mobilize all of my tribe members to get you anything!”
“What? Who are you talking to?”
Salem put on a funny expression and watched Bubak’s actions. Seeing that, Salem was contemplating whether to just crush him to death, but it was none other than beer that stopped him.
“Every beer came out.”
“Why are you so late? And bring it whole. Put this on someone’s nose…”
Salem’s nerves diverted for a moment, and Bubak begged Adrias as if he had seized the opportunity.
“Please give me one chance. I won’t let you down!”
“Did you say Bubak Hushang?”
Finally, Adrias opened his mouth.
And as Salem next to him just drank beer without saying anything, Bubak was able to guess that his prediction was correct.
“That’s right!”
“great. I’ll give you a chance.”
bang!
At that time, the door of the tavern was opened roughly and Adrias was cut off.
Immediately, a large number of people rushed through the door and surrounded the surroundings.
“Bubak! Where are you! How dare some bastards touch my son!”
Among them, a middle-aged man wearing clothes and accessories that looked expensive at first glance shouted.
“It’s so fucking, it’s fucking. I’m afraid someone will say that I’m not a parent child. Except for the ones who attacked earlier, I deliberately let go of the rest, but they dare to creep in on their limbs.”
As Salem continued to speak, Bubak’s face went pale again.
