Chapter 630

Episode 630: Abandoned City (3)

Biffron is an abandoned city.

It was originally the 14th district of Ravigion, a residential area with a dimensional plaza, but a long time ago, the protective magic circle that blocked the witch’s poison broke down, and the entire district was closed.

And….

‘It became a concentration camp.’

The royal family probably thought it was a waste to throw away one city district, so they separated out 14 districts and renamed it ‘Biffron’, making it a city for other purposes.

A dreamer who dreams of revolution.

A thinker with an enterprising mindset.

Or people who are dissatisfied with the city system itself, etc.

The royal family imprisoned all such ‘reactionaries’ in Biffron and, as a result, was able to reap much greater benefits than simply hanging them.

But…

‘The royal family must be in a state of uncertainty right now.’

This was proven when the Noark guys left the castle walls.

There is no such thing as a witch’s poison that melts your body the moment you leave.

Well, since it is difficult for ordinary citizens to access information, they only perceive this as a ghost story.

anyway.

“Huh…”

That’s all I know about Bifron right now.

So why has Beefron become so important?

Because it is a politically important city for the royal family?

So are you planning to use that in Noark as well?

That was the first thought that came to mind at first, but the longer I thought about it, the more it seemed like it wasn’t the case.

That’s because I can’t explain it.

If that were the case, the royal family would have tried to protect it somehow, such as by sending troops to Bifron.

It’s not like there are only idiots in the royal family, and there’s no way they couldn’t do what I thought.

‘…If you investigate, something will come out.’

In that sense, the investigation into Bifron continued even after leaving the checkpoint.

A

I felt a presence behind me.

It’s so clear that even the nerves of a dull barbarian won’t confuse it.

Swish.

When I turned my back, an unidentified person covered with a hood was standing on the castle wall like a ghost.

“Baron Yandel, listen.”

There was no need to ask who the other person was.

Because at that moment the wind blew strong.

Ssssssssssssss-!

Light armor with gaping hood.

A dagger strapped to a belt.

And even being a woman.

“What is the Rose Order doing here?”

When I asked the question vaguely, the woman took out a rolled up scroll from her bosom and unfolded it.

“It’s the king’s name.”

Hey, what’s going on this night?

***

The content of the king’s command delivered by a member of the Rose Knights, who suddenly came at night when the moon was not fully up, was very simple.

So, to sum it up….

“We’re going to temporarily open a checkpoint in Area 4, so get out of there quickly, right?”

“My job is to deliver.”

“That’s hard to say.”

I tried jokingly, but the woman didn’t respond and just kept quiet.

Are you the type of person who doesn’t have any conversations outside of work?

Well, that doesn’t mean there isn’t a way.

“But isn’t it your job to convey the king’s words well? So please answer me. The scroll said to bring me and the resident explorers from District 7…”

“What do you want to ask?”

“Do we not have to take the residents of Biffron with us?”

“Positive.”

“Why?”

“That’s a strange question. “They don’t have permission to enter the living area in the first place.”

“What if you say you’ll take me with you?”

“Such an assumption is meaningless. As I said just now, they do not have permission to enter.”

Simply put, it means that we will prevent it at all costs.

And the problem is that this opponent is not the type that can be used as force.

“Or are you planning to rebel against the king’s orders?”

“No way. “I was just asking because I was curious.”

“Then that’s it. “Please lead the explorers from Area 7 to the checkpoint at the time written.”

Afterwards, I tried asking other questions, but it was difficult to get a proper answer.

“Why is the Area 4 checkpoint still closed? “We could have taken the Biffron and attacked Areas 7 and 13.”

“I don’t know.”

“Since when did you know we were in Biffron?”

“I don’t know.”

“It looks like Noark is trying to play something with Biffron. Does the royal family know about it?

“I don’t know.”

“You don’t know everything?”

I was annoyed and spoke sarcastically, and the woman laughed.

However, I did not get tired and asked again.

“Then what is your name? “You don’t even know my name, right?”

“I don’t know.”

Huh… this guy is really strong too.

Sensing that this was a formidable opponent, I spoke a little more provocatively.

“What happens if I don’t go to the checkpoint at the appointed time? Oh, I’m not saying you’re breaking the king’s command, but you never know. “Something might come up and I won’t be able to go.”

The woman had no particular reaction to my words.

I just thought about it for a bit…

“Do you see that star over there?”

I stretched out my index finger and pointed at the night sky.

“…however?”

“If you look down from there, we will probably look that small too. Even if the target is you, the so-called giant Baron.”

What on earth does this woman want to say?

I frowned, pretending not to know anything, but in fact, I think I know roughly. From the royal family’s point of view, I guess I am just a small being.

“I mean there is only one thing the Baron needs to know. “To lead the people to the checkpoint on time and at the appointed time without breaking the king’s orders.”

A normal person would have curled his tail at words that drew a line like that, but like a barbarian, I tilted my head.

“…So what happens if I can’t go?”

Just as you can’t communicate with me, I’m not the type of person you can communicate with either.

He soon got tired of my persistence or was just amazed. The woman looked at me intently and spoke coldly.

“You should come. Even for your own sake.”

Overbearing words that don’t explain anything.

However, I was able to feel it intuitively through those last words.

Although I can’t really provide any evidence for it.

“You guys….”

“….”

“Are you really planning to blow up the entire Biffron?”

Usually, these premonitions turn out to be correct.
