NOVEL NEXT chapter 15
15 – Council of Lords (2)
“… ….”
The air was heavy.
A silence flows, and the monarchs look at me with strange faces.
‘Say something.’
I held my breath and waited for their reaction.
Since you don’t say anything and just stare at me, I feel more nervous for no reason.
“Very interesting.”
The 4 lords broke the silence first.
He was the lord of the Black Sea.
– Jerking around.
He approached me with a cold expression on his face, shaking his head from side to side.
‘Are you going to attack?’
He belonged to a rogue even among monarchs.
He was an idiot among idiots who not only started fights at all times, but also fed humans to monsters.
‘So… It makes me more nervous.’
Even though we were simply facing each other, I felt my breath tighten.
Perhaps, if it had not been for the Spirit attribute, he would have sat down on the floor unseemly.
“… ?”
However, he passed me and headed back.
Obviously, due to his personality, I thought he would attack without hesitation.
“What is it, is it dead?”
When I turned his head, he was tapping the corpse of the demon with his foot.
“Dead?”
“Four Lords, the joke is too much.”
“What, are you holding a declaration ceremony?”
The monarchs in front said with a smile.
Even if it were me, I wouldn’t have believed it.
I heard that a flying fly killed a demon, but does that make sense?
“Stupid bastards. Is it like a joke?”
As the Lord of the Black Sea spoke seriously, the pupils of the Lords trembled slightly.
They just realized that it wasn’t a joke.
“Are there any humans who can kill the next monarch?”
“Um, no, he was pretty strong too.”
“Then that person is not normal.”
It was a time when I was listening to the conversations of the monarchs with my ears pricked up.
Suddenly, the Lord of the Black Sea, who was behind me, approached me.
“It would be quicker if I asked directly. I’ll ask before I kill you What is your true identity? Why did you kill the next 7 lords?”
He stretched out his hand.
Then, a hideous-looking monster protrudes from his hand and salivates while looking at me.
‘It’s gross whenever I see it.’
The Lord of the Black Sea is one of the only Lords who can handle the Witchbeast.
With no limitations in space or numbers, he was able to summon demons from parts of his body.
‘Even when I was playing games, I had a hard time because of this bastard.’
I still get angry when I think of the magic beasts rushing in like a tidal wave.
“There is a misunderstanding. I didn’t kill him because I wanted to kill him.”
I told the truth.
I didn’t mean to, he was at my landing site, what should I do?
He was out of luck.
“It would be good for you to answer honestly and honestly.”
As if my answer was unsatisfactory, the demon’s hand opened its mouth wide.
‘… Damn, is there any good reason?’
To be honest, if I couldn’t understand it, I had to shout at least.
But I can’t remember.
“Huh, I got it. Is this what you said last time?”
Then one of the lords interjected with a nasal voice.
It’s the first face and voice I’ve ever seen.
However, I knew who she was at once.
“Rosaria, do you know her?”
Rozaria, Lord of Blood.
I changed her face and voice, but I couldn’t tell.
Her unique s*xiness and elegance felt from her was extraordinary.
“You can see it as a sphere. Oh, is this the first time I met you with this face?”
After Rosaria said that, she chuckled.
“I didn’t know you were friends with humans.”
The Lord of the Black Seas said sarcastically.
At this, she smiles and opens her mouth.
“Well, I want to be friends with you because you look smarter than me?”
“Shut that mouth. Shall I tear you apart?”
“There is no culture at all. It’s to the point where I don’t like to mix things up.”
Rosaria said with a disgusted expression.
At this, the iron dragon lord next to her asked.
“What was Rosaria trying to say?”
She flicked her hair once and she replied.
“To be ignorant, do you still not understand? I didn’t kill that guy because he wanted to kill the next monarch.”
Her eyes widened.
‘No, Rosaria recognizes this?’
I was even more grateful when someone who I thought would never be on my side took my side.
I thought it was a joke from the first meeting with her.
Once you get to know her, she might be a pretty nice person.
“I had no choice but to kill the next 7 Lords in order to take her place as Lord.”
“…… ?”
At the next words, absurdity came over me.
I wondered how he understood my heart, but then it wasn’t like that.
“What do you mean?”
The Lord of the Black Sea turns to look at Rosaria.
“It’s literally. Did you ask why the Seven Lords died earlier?”
She pointed at me.
“That guy did it.”
“?!”
The faces of the monarchs instantly turned into astonishment.
“Is that true?”
“Don’t talk bullsh*t. Why would a mere human kill that monster?”
“You must be misinformed. Rosaria.”
She took a sip of the red liquid from the wine glass and set it down on the table.
“I don’t think it’s impossible if it’s capable enough to kill the 7 Lords in one shot.”
“… ….”
The monarchs swallowed their saliva at Rosaria’s words.
‘… That this is rolled into a snowball like this?’
It was just a lie trying to get Rosaria to withdraw from her inn.
But I didn’t expect it to turn into such a big snowball.
“Rosaria. Has her mental head gone? Spreading bullsh*t like that.”
“Is it because her hair is stupid? Even if you tell me the truth, I won’t believe it.”
“What are you talking about? A b*tch like a slut-!”
The Lord of the Black Sea took action as if he was going to attack at any moment.
It was just the behavior of a bastard to start a fight here and there.
I clicked my tongue and said to him.
“Just do it. Lord of the Black Sea.”
“Human, whose name are you calling carelessly?”
He looks at me like he’s full of energy.
I looked down at him and said.
“If you make a fuss in the overlord’s castle, it won’t do you any good.”
“That is when there is an overlord. This sick bastard Wouldn’t it be quicker to tear your body apart right now? Or will the overlord come sooner?”
He sighed and shook his head.
“You only talk about stuffy things. The overlord has been there since before.”
I pointed at a woman dressed as a servant.
She wants to pretend she doesn’t know She couldn’t pretend she didn’t know.
[LV. ???]
The indication that the level cannot be measured has been floating for a while.
How strong is it that even numbers cannot be put on it?
“It would be better to do boring jokes like that. Overlord.”
At my words, the attendant smiled brightly.
“Wow… is this amazing? How did know?”
**
Overlord, Ariel has been watching the whole situation since earlier.
At first, it was a small gift to surprise the monarchs I hadn’t seen in a while, but somehow I missed the timing and couldn’t reveal my identity.
In the meantime, his identity was discovered by a human.
“How did you know?”
She looked at the man with an interesting look.
So far, no one has been able to figure out her true identity except for the Seven Lords.
“Isn’t it more amazing to not know?”
The man glanced at the Lord of the Black Sea and spoke.
“A savage human bastard-!”
“Stop, stop.”
Ariel held them back.
Then she smiled and asked.
“Are you really human?”
“Whatever you think, you are free.”
Her eyes twinkled as if she had met a mysterious creature.
She’s lived for tens of thousands of years, but she’s never been this interesting.
“Overlord-! Are you just going to pass it on? Are you playing a nasty prank to hide your identity? What do you see us as?”
Then the Lord of the Black Sea raised his voice.
His face was full of anger.
“Ha ha, sorry everyone! Are you mad?”
“… Overlord.”
“No matter how playful you were.”
The other monarchs also shook their heads.
She was originally the owner of an erratic personality.
“Sorry, sorry. Anyway, now that we’re all together, let’s proceed with the meeting. Previously… “
Ariel continued her words as she looked at the man.
“I think we should think about how we treat you.”
The monarchs began to sit down with faces that said something had come.
She was an erratic character, but her work was quite certain.
“What is your name?”
“You can call me Gerard.”
“Hmm, ok Gerard. I was impressed by what you said earlier. I’m asking for confirmation, are you the one who killed the 7 Lords?”
Gerard nodded his head, expressionless.
At this, Ariel narrowed her eyes.
“Hmm… good. What are you going to do now?”
“I intend to take responsibility.”
“How will you take responsibility?”
Gerard opened his mouth without hesitation.
“I will become the 7th monarch.”
“?!”
At that remark, all the monarchs put on a bewildered expression for a moment.
Soon after, the venue became a sea of laughter.
“hahahahaha?!”
“Puh ha ha ha?!”
“Ku-k-k-k-k!”
That was nonsense.
To think that a mere human would become a monarch.
My dream was so big that I couldn’t contain it.
“Hey man. You seem to be misunderstanding something. Do you think you’ll be able to come back alive today? But, monarch? hahahahaha-!”
The Lord of the Black Sea clicked his tongue and glared at Gerard.
Other monarchs were no different.
It was then.
“Then, where should I check my skills?”
Ariel said with a smile.
