Emperor! Can You See Stats!? - 146 # Gnomes
Deep in the mountains, the sun will soon fade away from the plain. A man was walking along a trail that was beginning to get dark.
“There’s no end to this mountain… ”
His name is Caine. He survived the shipwreck and was pushed to some shore. He couldn’t have done anything wrong.
‘If you want to join the king, you have to find a human first. ’
However, he slows down a bit compared to the rest. Even at sunset, he had to walk through the mountains without fail.
Unlike the Jegalvanic camp, he doesn’t know the way, nor is he as good at surviving on the mountain as Nuada. Of course, I had to be more nervous.
But he was strangely fortunate and was able to meet people more easily than the other two.
“The light!”
A faint light appeared from afar on a dark mountain path. He forgets his fatigue and hunger, and rushes to the place where there are raging men.
But even before arriving there, it was a group of spears that greeted Caine.
Grrr!
Chang!
“What the hell! ”
“You tried to invade the Heavenly Dragon Mark without fear! ”
“Huh?”
He looks at the people around him with a puzzled look. The crowd in blue surrounds him in an orderly fashion. And elsewhere, a flock rushes toward Caines.
“What happened! ”
“Is this an ambush?”
The second group was neither very orderly nor dressed neatly. Weapons are usually each in a gorgeous outfit.
Kanes tilts his head.
‘I think that’s just what everyone’s good at. ’
However, many of the opposing team are there, and Kanes raises his hands in a flash, not wanting to buy any unnecessary misunderstandings.
“Surrender.”
“ ……. ”
In the intestine, there was a moment of static. What kind of assailant comes in here alone, raises his hands and surrenders?
“What? It’s no big deal? ”
“This is a color I’ve only heard of in my outfit or look, but it looks really weird. ”
I was observing Caine with brown hair and brown eyes with an interesting look on his face.
Even those dressed in blue were looking suspiciously at Caine, but soon a middle-aged man appeared to be the leader among them.
“What are you? ”
“ ……. ”
Caine was momentarily embarrassed. He had already heard the basics. It doesn’t matter if he’s a knight or a nobleman on the Eastern Continent.
“That……. ”
After a moment of stuttering, he finally twisted the truth a little.
“A western continent man who traveled east and met a storm and crashed his ship? ”
The middle-aged man glanced at Caine with an absurd expression.
His name is Aging. He was a skilled master who was responsible for the total mark of the Cheonryong Mark, the largest mark in Gangnam.
Exposure quickly examined Caine’s colors, outfits, expressions, and more.
I’m pretty sure it’s the same outfit as the West Continent. ’
While it was generally hard to see, he had seen a colored person a few times because he had to deal with goods from the western continent, which was very rare when he was working on the plaque.
“What’s your status on the West? ”
“I was escorting a nobleman. ”
“Hmm……. ”
Exposure heard that and accepted it. I don’t know exactly what you’re up to, but I’m pretty sure Kanes was wearing a sword, and he had his training.
After a moment of thought, he looks at Caine with a pity expression.
‘You have a bad situation. If it were wrecked, the precious man who was with you would be dead and abandoned on another continent without a moment’s notice? ’
Seeing Caine rolling his eyes at it, he lowers his sword because he doesn’t look like a bandit or a fearsome master.
Shall I report to the monarch first? ’
The exposure was hesitant for a moment, but I called those dressed in gorgeous clothes to see if they thought there was no need to wake up the shareholders with this much commotion.
“Can you take care of him a little bit, even for a blind fall lamb? You don’t know how to wield a sword. I could hire one with you. ”
At the suggestion of exposure, they stumble.
“Chuckle. We have an interesting looking friend. ”
“It doesn’t matter. If only there were more arrowheads. ”
“Eww… That’s why people who are romantic… Please take good care of him because he has a bad situation. ”
The exposure frowns and leads Caines to them. He leaves the last words with a sad expression because he has a lot of recognition.
“They’ll tell you what to do. Once you get to the Fall Sheep, you’ll have some spare time, so find your way back to your continent. ”
“I understand.”
Kanes doesn’t really know what he’s talking about, but he understands that you’ll be joining the party. The thirty-year-old captain, who raised a goat beard over there, looks at him and gestures.
He was dressed neatly among the romantics and had a decent tone.
“Come here, colored man. ”
“Oh, yes! ”
As Caine jumps in that direction, he opens his mouth.
“What’s your name? ”
“I’m Caine. ”
“Really? That’s an odd name. I’m Sochul. Now that I look old, can I keep my mouth shut? ”
“I understand.”
Sochul grins as Caine accepts.
“That seems like a pretty bad situation. The Celestial Dragon Mark pays pretty well, so I think I can afford to go to the harbor. ”
“I’m sorry, what’s the mark? ”
In Caine’s question, Sochul notices that he knows nothing.
“Is there no romantic or plaque on your continent? ”
“Romance?”
“Tsk! I have to explain this to you. ”
Sochul explained to Caine in detail. The romance was meant for downstream unarmed people who received so-called money and used force.
It was because those who did not enter the elite clan or Sega were hired to make money by fighting over power of the republic or the surrounding clan.
When Kanes briefly explained the plaque and the romance, he nodded. It was easy to understand because there were mercenaries and merchants on the western continent.
‘I should play the mercenary whose name is the eldest son of a writer. I can’t tell my father about the sky falling. ’
It wasn’t a bad thing, but we have to do something to survive. Kanes wasn’t so stuffy, so he decided to do everything he could until he found the party.
And so began Caine’s romantic life.
* * *
The exposure enters the large tent in the middle and raises the report.
“What’s all the commotion out there? ”
The boss, the lord of the Celestial Dragon Mark, asked the senior citizen with a curious look.
“No big deal. ”
He shrugs and raises a brief report on Caines. The room master narrows his eyes slightly.
“Isn’t it a little suspicious to be a colored person at this time of year? ”
“I don’t think there’s going to be much trouble, should I interrogate him? ”
The room master considers for a moment and shakes his head.
“No. I’ll trust your eyes rather than the delay.” By the way, aren’t you the greatest master of the Celestial Dragon Empire? ”
“Haha! Thank you for your trust. ”
Since the exposure in charge of the gun was also the most trusted henchman in the room, the case against Caine seemed to have been well overstated. But the real reason the room attendant summoned him was not this trivial commotion.
He strokes his black beard and opens his mouth again with a solemn expression.
“About a week left? As I said, this mark was a direct request from the blind. At worst, you could get attacked by a bridge. ”
“I’m keeping that in mind. Isn’t that why you brought me the first twelve citations, including me? ”
“Yes, it is. But never let your guard down. ”
The Heavenly Dragon Mark was the best in Gangnam, so the quality of the faces was high. He was an outstanding master at the beginning of the climax, just because he was in charge of marking the gun right away.
Other than that, he is a worthy master who can be recognized as a decent force even if he goes to any branch of the Moorish.
Dizzy Bandits have nothing to fear by themselves. However, the name Mahjo was forced to put heavy weight on their shoulders.
It is because you can use it as a shield when you borrow a large number of misfits, like romantics who don’t usually hire very well.
“Don’t worry too much. It’s going to work. ”
“I hope so…. ”
* * *
In a few days,
The old man riding the horse in the lead shouts loudly.
“Let’s rest here today! Prepare to make camp! ”
“Phew! That’s it for today? ”
“Now there are only three days left of falling sheep. I want to rest in a warm place soon. ”
Each of the headlines scatters, striking their tents and lighting their campfires. Romans, too, have been teasing their hands diligently, including Caine.
“Hey, colored man! Can you hold this column for me? ”
“Yep!”
Caines raises the thick wooden column that supports the tent by himself.
In fact, an article that size was not difficult, but at the most, I could only look at it with a strange look as a third-tier unauthorized reader.
“He’s a powerful friend. You must be a great master. Haha!”
“Yuk! Escorting a nobleman from the West continent is one thing compared to us trivial Unsullied. ”
Kane was surprisingly well adapted to joining suddenly and having a garden.
The first reason is because he listened to all of his cranky requests as he had just now, which annoyed the conflict.
And the second was the existence of Soil. I treated Caine pretty well to see if she liked it. He was polite and surprisingly patient among them, making it easy for Caine to adapt.
“Thanks to you, the expression is much easier. ”
“No problem. I’m getting more help from my brother. ”
They were just talking about their future schedule.
“Did you say you were looking for someone to take you to when you arrived? ”
Sochul looks back at Caines, feeling sorry for him after hearing the rough situation.
“That’s right. Once we’re in the mountains, we’ll go to the city and question the hydrogen.” ”
Here, Sochul has made a tempting offer for him.
“Then why don’t you join the Roman Union temporarily? You need money to find someone, but it won’t cost you a penny. ”
“The Roman Alliance?”
“Yes. If you’re good, you can get more than first grade. ”
The other romantics didn’t take Caine’s strength lightly. In fact, why would a brilliant master intervene in a third-class UAV like them?
However, after staying together for a few days, Sochul realized that Confusion was a self-taught man.
“Then, if you go to the city of the Fallen Lamb, I’ll stop by. ”
While he nods happily, he is ready to make his camp.
Even though it was summer, the mountain night was pretty cold.
“Achoo! I hope you get into the falls soon. ”
“I know. I’m desperate for a warm bath… ”
The night grew deeper as the two voices who were standing nearby grumbled.
“Isn’t it time for a shift? ”
“I see. Don’t you think he’s dozing off? ”
While grumbling like that, one of the expressions opened his eyes.
“Huh? What’s that red dot? ”
“What?”
One of the expressions tried to look away. But what was before his eyes was not a red dot.
Shhhhh!
“Ugh!”
There was a gangster standing in front of them, dressed in blood. At first it looked like a red dot because he was so far away, and he narrowed it down during one breath.
“ ……!? ”
Chop, chop!
One of the expressions was smashed like watermelon in the blink of an eye again.
One of the remaining expressions freaked out and stepped back. But the weirdo doesn’t even flinch. I just opened my mouth, looking at the expression with cold eyes.
“Are you the scum of the Celestial Dragon Mark? ”
The first person in Gangnam said trash is the mark of the Celestial Dragon. It was an insolent word, but he nodded frantically.
“You’ve come to the right place. ”
The murderer gives a lifelong smile and commands the delegation.
“I have a message for you from the Crown Prince. ”
“Ah… I see. ”
The plagiarism ran backwards, rushing to the place where there was a peasant.
“Ambush!”
“What?”
Immediately, the headlines and readers poured out from the tent. The head of the National Guard, who had heard the news, jumped out.
His face pales as he looks at the man in the bloodstained robe.
“W-which forest are you? ”
“My lord! He is one of the Elders of the Church! ”
The exposure that came with him jumped out quickly told me. The unsub glanced at him with a surprised look.
“Some of you know me from this tribal mark? You look pretty good. ”
He looks at a boulder, two heads taller than everyone else, with a sprawling head.
“Bridge?”
The word Mahjo made everyone in the intestine think.
Exposure expressed his name with a trembling expression.
“Kwon Ma Hong Jin! ”
“Kuhahaha! Yes, I am red! ”
The intruder is suddenly ranked 10th in the order of the bridge! Even in the martyrdom, he was a master of ten fingers.
