C71 – Iron Queen in Motion

“To think that even that “Prishield” got defeated as well.”

Some time after the members of Yelquchira, Lucille’s guild, and the Prishield members who were manipulated by Sorglos left, figures arrived in the place where they had been.

As you would expect, they were the members of the dark guild, “Iron Queen (Inicken)”.

“Maan, that Rust guy was quite strong, though.”

“Ahyahya! Ain’t it a good thing that the annoying guy who kept pestering us is gone!?”

Rousseld, the guildmaster of Inicken, laughed like a madman at the big muscular man’s remark.

“Prishield” Rust was part of a normal guild who kept sniffing around Inicken.

Justice, justice, everything was for justice.historical

He was a very annoying bug for Rousseld.

He always interfered with Inicken’s activities which made him the most annoying one out of all the normal guilds.

And that guy was defeated by Yelquchira.

“I hate it. How could they have done Rust so easily when we had so much trouble with him...”

“Ou? Don’t you dare tell me you bastard got spooked by Yelquchira...”

“N-No! It’s not like that, Master!!!”

Rousseld glared at the big man who said something so gutless.

It was more than enough to have a singular person like Ild who could say something pathetic like that.

His mental health would be at a down-low if there were more of them.

The man immediately denied it when Rousseld, who was smaller than him, started to glare at him.

He was well aware of how frightening it would be to make an enemy of his guildmaster.

“But Master didn’t expect that Prishield would show up as well, didn’t you?”

“Ild...”

Ild laughed like an idiot and called him out.

In response to his words, veins popped out of Rousseld’s forehead.

“D-Dumbass! You really are a dumbass, huh!?”

“W-Why do you say such terrible things!?”

The man, who was about to anger the master earlier, denounced Ild.

He can kill him quite easily, but he might also be killed in the aftermath.

He wanted to be spared from that.

But Ild, who doesn’t quite understand why he got yelled at, can’t help but feel that the rude remark was unreasonable.

“Sigh.. well, he’s right...”

“Eh..?”

However, contrary to the man’s expectations, Rousseld did not show any anger.

Rather, he just let out a big sigh and managed to control his emotion.

Still, even for Rousseld, he didn’t expect Prishield to come into play this time.

The information control of Yelquchira was tremendous.

If their guild was not a dark guild, and if they did not have a connection with the prince, Rousseld might not have known about the existence of “Salvation Army (Yelquchira)”.

It’s a guild that moves secretively, so who was the person that provided the information to Prishield?

“..Well, there can only be that person, shit.”

It was easy for Rousseld to guess.

First, It was most likely that “Person” who without a doubt hired them to do spy work.

Shouldn’t they be afraid to join forces with the dark guild?

At this stage, it was already too late for that.

“But I guess the dumbass doesn’t understand that either...”

“You’re talking about Ild, aren’t you?”

“No, he’s not!.. maybe.”

Rousseld also managed to quiet the noisy bunch that was bickering nearby.

It can’t be helped. Let’s change the plan a bit.

“Ou, boys. It’s time for us to make our move!”

“Ohh! Finally!”

“Eeeh...”

When Rousseld called out, the big man clasped his fists together with a look of great enthusiasm.

It was as if the conversations from before were all completely lies.

The problem was that Ild was still as timid as ever.

“She led him by the nose and made him let out quite a scream, you know? I would have been discovered if I got too close to her so I couldn’t see it directly, but I’m sure she did something terrible.”

“Ahyahyahyahya! That is exactly what we’re ready for!!!”

Rousseld laughed off the frightened Ild.

Indeed. That is exactly what the dark guild is suitable for.

Both the gray guild case and the fact that they were not just hiding in the shadows has finally made everything clear.

The “Salvation Army (Yelquchira)” is an enemy of “Iron Queen (Inicken)”.

In the process of becoming the strongest dark guild that Rousseld wants, it is necessary to completely defeat that dark guild by force.

If they don’t do it properly, they will reap what they sow.

“Sigh.. I’m not sure if it will really go our way...”

“Shut up! If it isn’t, there’s no other choice but dying, you got that!?”

“Hiiiii..!”

Ild shivered as Rousseld shouted at him.

No one really understood why someone like him joined a dark guild.

Rousseld looked at him with a bored look and gave instructions to the big man and the skinny man with the sword.

“For now, go slaughter some people from Yelquchira. When you do, bring some body parts with you. We’ll show them to the others and boast about it.”

“Yeah!”

“Alright.”

Following Rousseld’s instructions, the big man and the skinny man made their way out of the forest.

“Oraa! You bastard should be going too!!”

“Higiii!!!”

Ild let out a pathetic scream as he was kicked in the butt by Rousseld.

He ran as fast as a horse with a whip on its back.

“Now then.. It’s time for an all-out war, Yelquchira! Ahyahyahyahya!!”

After seeing off his guild members, Rousseld continued to laugh like a madman alone in the nightly dense forest.
