Co to think of it, how did re villagers get into the capital and the imperial castle for that matter?
Surely soone must have influenced them… There are only a limited number of people who could do such a thing.
‘You’re going to co out like this?’
In the first round, my stepmother and father were clingy when I joined Fabian’s expedition, and after making my na known as a warrior, they even ca to the base.
So there was no way Fabian could have known about them… Countess Nerus’s power must have played a role in bringing them into the capital and using them in this way.
It seems that she planned to use my parents to pull out.
I had no idea that Fabian and Countess Nerus would form a party and end up making several rounds of expeditions.
I guessed that there would be so more sinister and vicious souls, but I had no idea that they would use such ans.
I should say that I am fortunate because it is easier to defend against than to use Jeanne. I clicked my tongue low.
Anyway, it was strange. How dare they shove these “parents” in my face.
I didn’t even care because they weren’t even worth being used like that in the first place…
‘Well… if it was in the first round that Fabian already knew, maybe.’
In the first round, it was my first ti in this world in many ways, and as I was not familiar with the fact that I was possessed, there were many things that I was puzzled about.
Typical was concerning parents.
At the ti, I did not know that my parents would be so terrible to Jun, and I was more inclined to think that I should have so degree of decorum, first of all, because they were the parents of the body I possessed.
So, wanting to get a good result, I behaved sowhat indecisively, and that was the defeat that pushed their relationship with to the worst.
But I learned enough about them to be disgusted and completely unsympathetic.
For the sake of the original Jun, I could not see these people carrying the na Jun on their backs.
But it all ca in the second round and I was renewed in my resolve.
Fabian seed to think he had only ever seen at my wits’ end and warily for my parents, so it would work for if he used them.
I did not respond as well as my stepmother would have liked and she bit her lower lip.
Perhaps she would have thought that raising her voice in front of strangers and accusing would have made co in with my head down to appease them in the face of others?
But I was a human being who could be quite brazen in that kind of gaze. The degree to which people pointed back at was nothing.
Before, she would have tried to pull my hair out, but now I was a 60-level expeditionary mber.
No matter how much I said my stats were trash, there was a big difference between an average person and soone at level 60. I pretended not to notice and said in frustration.
“If it’s sothing you need money for, don’t go off on a tangent for no reason.”
“How can you say that when Eugene misses you on his sickbed as his older sister?”
“Eugene followed you so well….”
They squeezed tears that weren’t there.
I don’t know what Countess Nerus paid for, but they even seed to be acting their best. I said it as if I couldn’t win.
“The expedition team is busy right now, so I can’t go back to my hotown.”
“We have a sense of sha, too. Would you like to co back to your hotown knowing that we’re in trouble? We just ca up to the capital together to help Eugene recover from his illness. You can go to the inn right now and at least show your face.”
“Okay. If you tell the location of the inn, I’ll visit him later.”
“You’re not going to co after saying that, right? Poor Eugene is probably waiting only for you…”
It drives people to be very trashy.
Whether I smile outright or not, they quickly grab by the sleeve to achieve their goal of taking away anyway.
“Eugene’s condition is urgent. Hurry up and follow .”
‘I don’t think I can go on if I have to be deceived by being so obvious…’
Of course, the reason I can peek into their true feelings this way may be because I cannot have any feelings at all for them and hate them.
Even Nova, the raw man next to , was half deceived by their words, because he was so warily trying to figure out what to do and what my mood was.
Certainly, if I had thought that my biological parents were still blood-related, I might not have been able to see them across the river disrespectfully as I did now.
If I was the original Jun… I would never have been able to let the story of my young brother being sick go unheard.
Therefore, it was even more vicious. What a way to take advantage of people’s goodwill and good hearts.
I hid my heart, properly, and pretended not to win.
“Ha… Okay. We can go now. Nova. Go back to the dorm first. I’ll be right back.”
“But I’ll be in trouble, Vice Commander. His Excellency told that the Vice Commander should not be working alone in individual activities.”
Nova was perplexed and dissuaded . I stared at Nova and said clearly.
“Special situations” can’t be helped.”
“…!”
It was only after hearing the code that Nova opened his eyes wide as if he had already realized it.
He was also far from a good actor.
I glanced sideways to see if my stepmother and father noticed. Fortunately, they seed nervous and didn’t notice anything about him.
I continued to speak naturally.
“What’s the big deal? I’m going to see my family. Besides, it doesn’t take long because it’s in the capital.”
“Then… All right.”
Nova was also insinuating. As things went as they planned, the corners of the mouth of the stepmother and father were excited.
I pretended not to know.
“Take the lead.”
“Y-yes.”
Things were going better than they expected, so they deserved to be suspicious for once, but they only hurriedly moved on.
I glanced at Nova and followed them. If you want to catch a tiger, you have to go into the tiger’s den. I stepped forward without hesitation.
They escaped from the rough castle and entered a secluded alley past a nobleman’s mansion.
All the while, it was worth taunting with absurd words, but they kept quiet and silent until they reached their destination, as if they didn’t want to be offended and leave.
What they had in front of them was a quiet vacant lot.
‘They found a place like this.’
I looked around and asked calmly.
“So, where’s the inn?”
“…”
My stepmother and father gave no answer with a frightening stiff face.
At that ti, a group of people ca out from behind us and surrounded from a distance.
The captain of the group who appeared through people was Fabian. I wasn’t surprised because it was exactly what I expected.
My stepmother leaned flat in front of Fabian and said with her head bowed.
“As you said, I brought Jun here! So, my son…!”
I wondered what he had raised as a price for what they did over there, and it seed that he had captured and threatened the life of Eugene.
What would happen to after being dragged away like that should not have been their consideration.
In the end, “Jun” was not a child to them.
I chuckled. The emotion that had been there otherwise was completely gone this ti around.
Fabian said it as if my stepmother’s and father’s plaintive cries were botherso.
“Take them.”
Fearing Fabian’s words would fall, others tied up my stepmother and father.
“Sa-save ! We did everything we were told to do. Please…!”
“So our son, is our son okay?”
They shouted frantically, but Fabian ignored their words, smiling and listening irritably.
“How does it feel to be betrayed by your family?”
“What do you an? It doesn’t matter.”
“Are you bluffing even in this situation?”
“Is this the only thing you do? You’re not a villain, you’re just a third-rate thug, Fabian.”
I burst into laughter and looked around at the people around .
So were mbers of the Fabian expedition, others were not. I didn’t see any Deca.
I shrugged with room to spare.
“Aren’t you gathering too many to catch one wizard? I’d think you were fighting the Demon King.”
“You’re not just a supporting wizard, but you’re the vice head of the Black Knights, Tyrant. We have to be polite to greet you.”
A spearman replied cheerfully. It was a woman in my mory. I spoke nicely.
“It hasn’t been that long since I’ve seen you, but it’s nice to et you here.”
She was the head of one of the expeditions I visited in the last few days.
“I don’t think the Black Knights made a very bad offer.”
“In the end, the Black Knights share the leftovers. People may want to eat more.”
“Aha, you’re greedy…. Why? Were you promised that he’d give you a seat at the Grand Duke’s table? Did you fall for that kind of nonsense?”
“…”
At my words, the spearman’s face turned red. It seed to be the essence. I laughed out loud and gradually moved my eyes to the side.
“What? Why are there so many familiar faces?”
I smiled when I found another one.
Out of the three spies Countess Nerus planted, it was the spy that infiltrated the Yellow Lightning unit.
Her eyes were blue, as if she resented for the amount of insults I had inflicted on her and kicked her out.
Whether she did or not, her resentnt was only ridiculous to .
The fault was hers, so why pretend to be sorry? I clicked my tongue and shook my head.
“To bring the double swordsman… Do you have no intention of hiding that you joined hands with Countess Nerus, or did you not think of it because you were stupid?”
“That much, I was guessing because it would co out roughly if you collected the information you knew. But you probably don’t even know what I prepared holding hands with the Countess.”
Fabian then smiled with a significant smile. I grumbled at the disgusting appearance of being elated.
“You’re very confident. On the subject of a thug.”
So far, he had maintained composure against any sarcastic words, but Fabian couldn’t hold back and was unbearably indignant because the word thug was quite painful.
Fabian looked a little red-faced and threatened.
“Be careful with what you say. What do you trust in this situation? yer Knox? I’ve confird again and again that there’s no one after you.”
It seems that people were planted and monitored in the middle. I clicked my tongue and twisted my mouth.
“How thorough. If it were the Commander, he would co after right away even if he was a little late. Is it okay to hold on to the tail like this?”
“Don’t worry. It won’t take that long.”
“I guess I look easy.”
As soon as I finished speaking, I imdiately activated Fulgor’s Pumpkin.
「Scorpion Lightning」
A glistening bolt of lightning in the air fell piercingly toward Fabian and the other incorrigibles.
With a rippling roar, a cloud of dust blocked my view.
