Chapter 344. True water dealer (6) In fact, thanks to that, the water purifier was very popular.
Thanks to that, everyone was able to donate bundles of money on their own without being forced to sell.
Now, each kingdom and lord is trying to preoccupy the purifier first.
“Maybe other people will not be able to believe it easily. Even I am in awe, wondering if Arel-nim expected this.”
“...Even if it's not the case, your wife said the same thing before you came out.”
I must have said something stupid.”
When I smiled bitterly as if I was tired of it, Helmin smiled similarly.
How ironic.
It's selling well, but the current situation is so delicate that I'm not happy about it.
By the way, I decided to tell him about finding him.
“So that’s what I mean. Right now, we can't afford the magic techniques and materials that go into that purifier.”
“...Is that why you're looking for me again?”
Hellmin was already half-expected, but he seemed to understand.
Yes.
The reason I visited the Mage Tower in search of him was not because I was bored, but because orders for the Purifier had exploded, so I wanted to get help for its production.
It wasn't too difficult to seek understanding, as they had previously cooperated with Mana Engine production.
“Thanks for saving me the trouble.”
“If you say it's simply for business.... We'll think about it too, but isn't it as important as this time? Shouldn't we take it for granted?”
“So you're saying you can cooperate right away?”
“Yes, I will assign the number right away. Can the takeover procedure be the same as before?”
“Do it.”
Yeah you know our way
Let's do what we always do.
There is no need to discuss detailed procedures.
It's comfortable for people who can talk to each other.
To put it bluntly, I get it in moderation.
If I say ten things, they understand about three of them.
That's good enough.
“Instead, the additional production of the Mana Engine will inevitably be delayed by that much, right?”
“...I'm sorry about that.”
“I know, I know. I understand that much.”
The magic tower's manpower also has limits.
No matter how much money we make, we can't just focus on our work.
It is only natural that it takes a lot of manpower to order one.
In that regard, I instructed to first help with the further production of purifiers.
“There is nothing urgent about the addition of the mana engine, so I don’t care if the schedule is slightly delayed. Either way, it's an advantage for me, isn't it? Will you be punished for complaining?”
“Ha ha ha ha ha ha.”
“You should only resent the magicians to your heart's content. Anyway, it's been a long time since I've been giving people trouble.”
Come to think of it, the ones who have subtly twisted my schedule so far are definitely those guys in black.
Strangely, when I try to do something, accidents happen around the same time.
Have you lost any enemies in your previous life?
What I can guess is.....
I'm sorry, there are so many that I honestly can't figure it out.
There's no other guy with a back as much as I do.
“I have no choice but to tremble at the atrocities of the black magicians. Worshiping an evil occult is absolutely disgusting... Poison. Isn't that something you shouldn't do as a human being?”
Helmin gnashed his teeth as he expressed his angry opinion when the story of the Warlock came out.
I don't want to interfere if they simply shut themselves up and do their research.
Warlocks continue to cause wide-area nuisance.
Any sensible person would be outraged.
“But this time, I heard that there are not one or two people who want to use that poison to terrorize?”
“That's right. It is said that there are seven people who have already been caught on the spot.”
“Seven.... There were seven caught besides Kelly....
I put my chin on my chin and muttered.
“Isn’t this too much?”
During the previous undead incident or when he attacked Kania's older sister, he was alone.
It felt like a runaway runaway by the individual black magician.
But this time, the guys who try strange things keep getting caught? “Isn’t that strange to common sense? Am I the only one who feels that way? Is it just me who thinks it's weird?”
“I have similar thoughts.”
Helmin also nodded.
“Already went through a meeting with the owners of each mage tower, but everyone feels a sense of incongruity.”
Terror.... Let's say that.
Why do you keep trying to do that by the river?
Recently, have warlocks awakened to sexual desire (?) as much as they can't use their legs because they want to get dirty just by looking at water?
I can't quite understand
“He seemed to be moving after receiving an order, but he didn’t open his mouth even when interrogated. And most committed suicide during interrogation.”
“...It's an order.”
They are black magicians who act as a group.
“Come to think of it, I think I've heard that most warlocks belong to which organization?”
“It seems to be called the Dark Church.”
Yes, the Dark Cult.
The black guys I encountered spoke the name.
“The name is true...
I don't know what the hell is darkness and what is a church, but it is certain that there is a group that all the warlocks belong to in common.
“It's such a funny name.”
“Is that so?”
“If it were me, if I named myself like that, I would not be able to carry my face in shame for the rest of my life.”
At least, I don't think it's a name that will come out of the brain of a mature person.
Helmin was just wondering if I was the only one who felt this way.
Well again if you seriously think about their organization.
“Is it a combination of warlocks or a guild concept?
It is common for artisans and merchants to form a union and share information with each other.
It is also an easy concept to think about.
“It is very likely. Even when he had previously captured and interrogated a certain warlock. I heard that the Dark Church provides more than a certain amount of support.
They also said that they arrange a place to discuss the knowledge of warlocks.”
“Who is leading it? First of all, if it takes the form of an organization, doesn’t that mean someone has a leader?”
“That… doesn’t seem like much is known.”
Helmin also shook his head in embarrassment.
“It is hard to find information about the organization of warlocks not only in Ernesia's tower, but also in other countries' towers. Even when we read the memoirs of successive pagoda owners for 500 years after the pagoda was built, there were no records related to it.”
“At best, it's just a record that His Majesty the first king embarked on a large-scale subjugation of black magicians.”
As the saying goes, there are few records of what the Dark Church is or what it is.
All I know is that such an organization exists.
For some reason, the black magicians affiliated with it were to the extent that they couldn't grind Ernesia Kingdom and were impatient.
But I don't really know why.
Occasionally, they say that they have caught and interrogated black magicians, but it is said that they have not found out anything because every black magician caught committed suicide.
In that respect, they might be thorough bastards in controlling information.
“Are there any clues to the Magic Tower?”
“If there was something, there is no way that the previous owners of the tower would not have left it.”
To good wizards, warlocks are literally stuck in the sewer.
If you have a clue about them, you can't let them go.
I guess that's what it means.
“If there is only one known thing. It seems that they have a person called a religious leader.”
“The teacher?”
“Yeah, 120 years ago.... It is said that those were the last words the tower owner had when he personally subdued the warlocks who were doing evil research.
‘If the headmaster returns, he will punish all of you...?'”
“Come back... sounds like it's not there right now.”
Have you ever traveled anywhere?
“That's what they think. It may be natural that we do not understand.”
Helmin finished his speech with a nuance of blatantly ignoring the black magician.
“Then why is Arel-nim paying attention to their movement?”
“me? um no big deal I guess you've been bothering me ever since. Both raids and undead... and this time too.”
This time, it did not cause any direct harm to Ernesia Kingdom.
I don't know if I didn't try or didn't, but there was no eyewitness report or damage report on this side.
“Aren’t you constantly having accidents to ignore?”
“???? indeed.”
Helmin nodded as if he understood what I wanted to say.
“You said they were insane. Then you can think of crazy things.
I don't think this will end.”
Seeing that you can't bear to argue, it seems like it's on the right track.
In fact, if you're so blatant, you can't help but be suspicious.
“What if you decorate something extra?”
“...that could be it.”
“What? Even if you think like this, it's meaningless if you don't know what you're decorating.”
I'm too lazy to research them one by one.
Why spend my golden hours looking for those dark things that might be out there?
That's why I just quietly warned Helmin.
Never take this lightly.
For now, if you tell them, this mage lord who hates those black guys so badly will take care of it.
After all, it's a law to leave troublesome tasks to guys who want to do them.
In reality, Helmin is seriously stroking his chin and deep in thought.
“…I will be careful.”
“Don't worry too much. It’s just speculation.”
Although I say this, I have a hunch that the prediction may be infinitely closer to the truth.
There's no way you act like you're going to do something like this and then don't do anything.
Maybe even now, somewhere on the continent, those warlocks are up to something.
‘I don't know what you're thinking, but please stay calm if your life is precious...
I sighed, sincerely wishing that.
If you're going to have an accident, do it in an era where I'm not around.
Shouldn't you think of someone to help you?
What... For now, I had a hunch that it was a meaningless complaint.
‘It's true that what they're doing is annoying.'
Perhaps it is necessary to take action rather than wait.
Where should I slowly review that point?
The main temple of the Dark Church, the hideout of black magicians.
“As you ordered, we are carrying out ‘Operation Contamination' using dispatched warlocks. As planned, it seems that other countries and magic towers are also currently vigilant around water sources such as rivers and lakes.”
Rogel, an executive of the Dark Church, who was in charge of part of this plan, was reporting the progress of the current plan to the minor master.
Presently, Little Master Letelneas was reading a sorcery book and listening to his report, as if he was researching something in his workshop.
“If you're busy, I'll report back later.”
“I am listening. Let's keep talking.”
“...It's the result of that contamination operation.”
An order to lead the warlocks at each end to pollute the water sources of each country through all kinds of means.
Reporting the progress, Rogel couldn't help but feel restless the whole time.
“...Already the contaminated area seems to have been all purified by the magic tools sold by the kingdom of Ernesia... I'm sorry. If I had been a little more careful, I would have achieved greater results.”
“No. It is not a failure.”
To him, who seemed to be disrespectful, Little Principal Letelneas, who was reading a magic book, shook his head with a laugh as if it was absurd.
“Yes?”
“Even if they came and dealt with it, it was too late. I already secured the required amount of demonic energy, so hehe. Isn’t that right?”
“There is no doubt that Magi has been secured.”
