chapter 22
22. are you looking for me?
“This way.”
Diaz whispered softly.
I nodded and followed closely behind her.
To be honest, I was a little surprised.
Diaz had been walking around the interior as if it were his own home, just looking at the blueprints for an hour or so.
It was even said that it was not simply breaking through the shortest distance, but finding and breaking through the points where the troop deployment would be the most lax.

Just by looking at the blueprint.
‘I heard you didn’t rob prison, did you rob anything other than prison?’
By the time doubt creeps in.
We were already on the way to the dungeon.
The guards guarding the prison remained seated even though there was a commotion outside.
“It looks like we need to deal with it at the same time.”
“I’m on the left. You take the right.”
“Yes.”
We exchanged signals by winking.
I picked up a suitable stone from the floor and threw it.
baek!
“Huh? What is it?”
Diaz quickly flew in and took the rest of the jailer’s head.
dump.
It was a truly amazing move.
While admiring them, Diaz tied up the guards with the rope he had prepared earlier.
“It’s done.”
“Uh, um. Let’s go in.”
A fairly large prison camp spread out in front of you.
From here, he had no choice but to go around and find Baron Rom Hardy.
Diaz and I decided to split in two to find Baron Romhardy as planned.
“I’ll look for it from there.”
“Then I’ll start from this side.”
“Yes.”
So, we started to search our respective areas.
There was no great commotion inside.
It was so dark that even the inmates seemed to see us as just guards.
Thanks, I’ve been slowly searching…
“Hey. Do you want to see me?”
The tender voice of a woman called me.
I paused for a moment and turned my head.
It was because I felt as if I had seen a familiar face for a moment.
And when you look inside.
I couldn’t believe my eyes

rogue class.
A short-range physical attack class based on agile movement.
Critical damage is an advantage and low stamina is a disadvantage.
An assassin type character with relatively high control difficulty.
Well, if it existed in reality, it would be splendid and ever-changing, so we should be wary of it…
It was such a common job in the game.
Didn’t you see this concept often in other games?
It was the same with Pao Gat.
But what if you actually faced that playable rogue class right in front of you?
‘……crazy.’
I wondered if most of them would react in the same way as I did.
Of course, I did think.
I wondered if there would be a playable class.
That’s why I found Paladin and found it.
However, when I actually met him, it was a strange feeling in many ways.
I’m glad too
I stood in front of her
We were facing each other with the iron bars in the middle.
She shrugged.
“I called, but you’re a little embarrassed to stare at me like that?”
I asked a question
“What’s your name?”
“It’s the first time I’ve seen you? Are you sure you’re a prison guard? You look strangely different in your clothes. It seems like you’re lost on the road.”
“I asked what your name was.”
“How can I tell you the way?”
A smiling face.
But don’t be fooled by its appearance.
If you approach me in a daze… you’ll be bitten by her fangs.
A person who should not always be nervous even if he is in front of his eyes.
That was the rogue.
Unmoved by her provocation, I asked again.
“name.”
“It’s quite persistent? Looking closely, it’s a bit like my taste… Okay. I’ll tell you specifically. My name.”
She called me over with her fingers.
“Are you really telling me?”
I hadn’t responded to her words before, but this time I responded by taking a step forward.
“My name is…Levarsen, Iya.”
It was amazing.
Taking advantage of the gap when she said her name, her hands flew towards the dagger on my side.
Of course, the fact that the position was on the left waist was her dent.
If nothing else, my left arm could follow her movements
chin!
I raised my eyebrows while holding her wrist.
‘I knew it would be like this.’
Because I was a little nervous, I responded right away.
It was great nonetheless.
‘I almost missed it…’
Levarsen, who did not know what I was thinking, had a surprised expression.
It seems that he did not know that his arm would be caught.
“Hah? What are you?”
“Well.”
“It’s interesting. I’m curious about the person you are. To the point where I want to listen to him slowly.”
“……”
“I’ll visit you next time I have time.”
“You’re looking for me?”
“Sure. There’s nothing I can’t find. Whether it’s a well-hidden treasure or a person.”
“How are you going to find me there?”
It was then.
He felt the repulsive smell of demons nearby for a moment.
Preparing to draw my sword, I turned my gaze towards the entrance.
Fortunately, the smell no longer approached and gradually faded away.
It didn’t seem like it had come this way.
profit.
‘Well?’
Let’s turn our heads back to the sound of metal.
Before I knew it, Levarsen was standing in the distance.
I looked at the bundle of keys I had slung beside my dagger.
‘none……’
It was absurd, to the point of laughing out loud.
Levarsen blinked one eye and winked.
“Thank you. Thanks to you, I came out.”
disappeared into the dark

“Rohan-nim. I’ve found my target.”
“Huh? Ah, um.”
Diaz found an open door next to me.
“What happened…?”
At that, I just shook my head.
“It’s nothing. More than that, where is it?”
“Oh, yes. This way.”
I moved with Diaz.
And inside the facing iron cage.
“Who, who are you guys?”
There was Baron Romhardy with a confused expression.
I looked at him and spoke softly.
“He is the Heretic Inquisitor of the Archdiocese of Siphoreo.”
“……! Are you serious?”
“Yes. Yesterday, I met a man named Karkus. He was the devil’s servant.”
“I knew that…”
Also my prediction was right.
Baron Romhardy seemed to know more.
“Looks like there’s someone else behind him. We need more information.”
“Actually… I too was caught while conducting background investigations. Because of that, I was completely unable to track it down. However, I did find out one thing.”
His answer was unexpected.
“The Viscount Morden is already dead!”
“… Viscount Morden… is dead?”
“Yes! Even so, Karkus visits City Hall almost once a week. There must be someone inside! Someone impersonating Viscount Morden!”
It was said that someone… killed Viscount Morden and imitated him.
“Don’t you know who it is?”
“Until then…”
Baron Romhardy shook his head.
In fact, this alone was a great harvest.
Finding out where the devil is hiding in this city was also a problem.
The scope was narrowed down considerably.
Even if you rob the city hall building well.
‘I can find it.’
One problem was not yet over.
‘Carcus seemed to have a hidden trump card.’
The words that said that if you touched him, the whole city would be annihilated.
It didn’t look like a simple bluff.
“That Karkus. Even knowing that I was a paladin, he wasn’t intimidated at all. Rather, he pushed me to try it if he wanted to. It wasn’t a bluff. Do you know what he’s hiding?”
“Karcus. That guy is the biggest problem. According to what I found out… He said that he turned his body into a poisonous mass due to a contract with the devil.”
“Poison…… lump?”
“Yes. When he dies, his corpse explodes, and the poison filling his body is said to annihilate the entire city.”
“……”
If that’s true, it was a bit of a headache.
It would be easy to kill him…but then I was about to die too.
“Is there any solution?”
“That’s still…”
“Hmm.”
Baron Romhardy did not answer.
It was definitely something he knew nothing about.
But I knew the future.
And as far as I know, Baron Romhardy made it through the crisis well.
Obviously, three years later, he stood tall again as the mayor of this Rejeta.
If my predictions are correct… Baron Romhardy had found a way to do it himself.
‘Somewhere…’
But when I thought about it, it was a bit strange.
What if I hadn’t come to the rescue?
Baron Romhardy must have been imprisoned in this dungeon all along.
‘By the way, where did you find out what?’
no.
It seemed impossible to say where.
Because this is the only place he can be.
With the skills of the villagers, it would have been difficult to break through all the guards here.
Right now, I came in easily because Diaz did a good job, but it would have been difficult if I had been alone.
Breaking through this camp was never easy.
‘Then they figured out something here.’
As I erased the wrong answers one by one, it seemed that I could see the answer.
I drew my sword and swung it lightly.
squeak.
Then the iron bars were gently cut away.
Seeing this, Baron Romhardy’s eyes widened.
“Huh, huh!”
However, I couldn’t afford to react to his reaction.
Through the hole I made, I stepped into the prison.
There was only darkness all around.
nothing……
Swoop.
‘not. It’s not like there’s nothing.’
I closed my eyes and concentrated more on my senses.
The third eye dramatically sharpened the five senses.
With my eyes closed, my senses were completely focused on hearing.
The subtle sounds tickled my ears.
Separate what is necessary and what is not.
A high level of concentration consumed his mind.
Finally.
flash!
I opened my eyes and looked in one corner.
Diaz, who knew I was concentrating and had kept his mouth shut, asked cautiously.
“Rohan-nim. What’s going on?”
I walked towards the place where my eyes were fixed.
into the corner of the prison.
and.
Whiing……
I found a subtle wind felt there.
“found.”
The corners of his lips rose slowly.
Only then did Diaz, feeling something strange, hurriedly came to my side.
“Stop, no way……”
She crouched down quickly, revealing a stone on the floor.
When I applied some force, the stone moved.
soon
drooling.
the road appeared.
‘That’s it!’
The future Baron Romhardy seemed to have just discovered this.
As Diaz and I lifted the stone, Baron Romhardy followed suit and helped move it.
The gap widened in an instant as the three clung to each other at the same time.
And soon enough, we made a gap enough for people to come in and out.
“Let’s go.”
I threw myself into it.
The path that Baron Romhardy would have found, now I started walking one step ahead.
