chapter 12
Episode 12. we were lucky (2)
“I have been ordered by Brother Hanson… … yo. this.”
“yes?”
“Brother Hanson told me to bring him and the others!… … yo. this.”
“… … ?”
Is this a compliment or a compliment?
Tira had no mind at all.
Since early in the morning, I encountered a series of strange situations.
The man in front of me is a man named ‘Joseph Son’ whom I know very well.
This is one of the heads of Hanson’s gang.
For some reason, he shows disrespect (?) to Tira.
‘He was a person who used to make dirty jokes when he met… … .’
In fact, even from Joseph’s point of view, it tasted like death.
Tira looks four or five years younger than herself.
Thanks to Hana Hanson’s order, ‘Even if the temple perishes, treat it respectfully because it is a temple’, she was giving Tira undesirable respect.
‘Anyway, Hanson-nim is also secretly old-fashioned.’
What if Josephson was the chief?
Then, the first thing that disappeared in Meirium must have been the temple.
Older people and sick humans are of no help to the development of the town’s power.
But Hanson told me not to touch the temple until the end.
Market merchants and orchard farmers all pay protection fees to Hanson’s gang, but the only place that doesn’t pay is the Temple of Dawn.
‘If I set it on fire, I’ll feel refreshed.’
It was such an inner feeling, but it was the position of a subordinate who had to be blacked out once.
Josephson said to Tira with an awkward smile.
“that… … Do you have a brother to take you inside? Please tell me to come out for a second.”
“You came to find the servants.”
Joseph’s hand tilted his head at Tira’s awkward smile.
“… … satellite?”
“Did you not know yet? Daryl and four others became members of our temple. You became the seed of the knights that will be founded someday.”
What does this mean?
order? A member of the temple?
And what about ‘seeds’?
Even Josephson, who was quite intelligent, was dizzy.
‘If it’s a seed… … He’s a good-spoken servant, isn’t he just a follower of knights?’
Knights in glittering silver armor roamed the streets with their heads bent.
Grab the reins of those knights and go away! If you do, go away and come here! If you do, isn’t it the seed that comes here?
Even Hanson’s gang are quite free people… … .
Why did those Daryls become seeds?
All of a sudden?
Tira said to Josephson, who was still confused.
“The seeds probably won’t come out. Everyone is lying by the well.”
“What do you mean? Why are you lying by the well? Not even a bed?”
“that… … .”
“I will explain.”
chuck!
A knife that always appeared.
Tira lets out a sigh of relief.
In fact, Josephson was famous for his poor conduct even among Hanson’s gang.
In particular, when I saw only young women, I was bothered by my chigeunduk.
So, when rumors spread that Josephson had appeared in the market, the women of the village left their work and went inside and locked the door.
“who are you? He’s the first one I’ve seen.”
Josephson said to Carl.
There was a smile in his gaze as he looked at the knife.
A man as tall as a man who is tall and skinny.
It has thin muscles attached to its limbs, but it is not very threatening.
Rather than the priest, who was difficult to deal with, this side was more comfortable.
“That’s what you’ll find out soon. come in at once Let me meet Daryl.”
“What are you up to?”
When the first guy he met said he would obediently listen to his request, he was suspicious.
Maybe they’re trying to lure the gang inside and launch an ambush?
Ambushing troops inside the temple?
Or else… … .
“Pu-huh.”
Josephson, who was rolling his head alone, smiled.
‘I was too sensitive. There’s an ambush in the ruined temple.’
Isn’t it the Temple of Dawning in Meirium that lacks cabbage soup to feed the sick, let alone troops to ambush?
Even if you give me a bag of potatoes right away, the high-ranking priest will jump out and bow his head.
But it’s an ambush… … .
Josephson comforted himself by saying that he was too nervous.
But wait a minute.
were you nervous?
long… … page?
‘This I… … Nervous against a skinny guy like that??’
I’m sure I didn’t feel that way when I was talking to Tira.
But the moment I met eyes with that skinny old man!
Strangely, my brain rotated faster.
It was unbelievable.
‘hahahaha, nonsense! I’m nervous to be the second person in Hansen’s group to such a walking corpse? There is no such thing!’
He’s not nervous even in front of Hanson, who can be said to be the ruler of Meirium!
But to be nervous about a scarecrow he’s seeing for the first time.
‘It must be an illusion.’
It was Joseph’s hand who shook his head to shake off his thoughts.
I threw a knife at Joseph’s hand like a knife.
“There is no such thing as a go-ahead. What tricks do we need against punks like you?”
“What is this bastard?”
Obviously, Josephson abandoned Warak Castle even though he had just made a promise.
He rubbed his chest with his hand again.
“after… … It looks like it’s desperate to die, but I’ll do it soon. But I have to meet Daryl-hyung, so I’m going to put up with it for now.”
“do whatever you want.”
fast!
Carl’s free-spirited words and actions!
Not only Josephson, but the other gang members who followed also gnashed their teeth.
Tira’s face flashed as she watched the scene.
‘uh… … ?’
One Two Three Four Five.
Tira counts the gang entering through the temple gates with her fingers.
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten… … eleven!
Excluding Josephson, who could be called the leader of the group, there were only ten men.
Tira stared at the sun on the horizon, feeling goosebumps running through her body.
‘Did the sun god grant my wish?’
Just this morning, as soon as she opened her eyes, a thought ran through Tira’s mind.
-I wish there were only ten more servants!
-Then how happy are you? You can help Priest Eric cook, tend the fields and harvest tomatoes!
-Ahh… … This bad heart that only tries to rely too much on Carl!
-But it would be great if there were ten more people… … .
The ten enter the temple on their own feet.
Everyone looked at the back of the knife and shook their necks from side to side.
He must be excited at the thought of throwing a lot of knives at him.
However, Tira thought they were making a big mistake.
‘That newly made wooden sword… … .’
Boo-boo-boo!
Explosions heard in the air whenever Carl swung his wooden longsword!
Even to Tira, who had no knowledge of swordsmanship, it was strange.
Even if you whine like a mudfish in the air, if you stretch out your hand, the air at the end pops! Perbung! because it exploded
It seems to be dancing like water flowing, but at the end of it, there is tremendous power.
If you use that mysterious swordsmanship, that Josephson and his gang will probably… … .
“Tira, come here for a second.”
Carl called Tyra.
Tira was drawing a bleak future (?) for the Josephs.
As she quickly approached, Carl whispered something into her ear.
“and! I will prepare it quickly!”
Tira ran towards the kitchen with a very happy face.
“hehehehe, Brother Joseph Son.”
While following Carl to the backyard.
One of the gang secretly put a shoulder on Josephson.
“Why, do you remember the old homeless man who tried to snatch Hanson’s money bag a few days ago and got beaten up?”
The one who whispers so low that the sword in front of him can’t hear it.
Josephson also had something on his mind.
It was said that the gang who went out to collect money had scolded a beggar in the back alley of the market.
“Why?”
“To me, he looks like him. No matter how much we live in the temple, there’s no way we don’t know the face of Meirium people, right? But isn’t it the first time that I and my older brother have seen each other?”
“but… … .”
Even if you are a member of the temple, if you are in Meirium, there is no way that Hanson’s gang will not know about it.
Conversely, the people of Meirium could not have known Hanson’s gang.
But that guy treats Josephson and other shoulders as if he were a bully in the neighborhood.
Then he must have no idea about Meirium’s physiology!
A homeless person who suddenly appeared a few days ago would be right.
‘for a moment! So you’re saying I’m just nervous about homeless people? This Josephson?’
The blood seems to flow backwards into the back of the head.
‘You dare to walk around and beg in front of me… … !’
From the fist of Joseph’s hand! There was a sound.
“There are more and more cheeky guys these days, but it’s good. I must set an example for that bastard.”
“hehehe, that’s an excellent idea, brother.”
First, meet Daryl and figure out the situation.
After that, I’ll have to beat up that old man.
If I do well, I think I will be able to relieve the accumulated stress and remove the thorn in my eye, Daryl.
Josephson immediately felt better.
Besides, the pretext is clear.
‘What if Daryl became a true temple squire? That’s a betrayal of Brother Hanson!’
Never betray or backtrack.
It’s the only rule of Hanson’s gang.
If Daryl really became a squire and stayed in the temple, that would be a sure betrayal.
Because he left the gang on his own accord without asking permission from the gang.
It meant that even if Josephsson took care of Daryl, there would be nothing wrong with it.
‘hehehe, my life is finally getting better.’
Josephson, who was ranked third in his later years, overshadowed by Darryl, who was good at fighting.
The sun seemed to be rising in his back alley life.
If you become the official second-in-command of Hanson’s gang, the way women see you will change.
As I was thinking about that, I suddenly saw a well.
however.
“uh? It looks like my older brother and the kids who will take that?”
“Go quickly!”
A few humans strewn around the well like corpses.
A gang of ten people rushed in.
“older brother! Brother to take away!”
“Hey, Peter! Make up your mind! What is all this about!”
“Who did you beat?!”
a couple of years ago.
When a gang from a neighboring village invaded Meirium fruit distribution rights.
Although they won the fight, Hanson’s gang took a pretty big hit.
The appearance of the Daryls now unfolding before my eyes was as if it had been right after the large-scale fight that had taken place at that time.
‘Who the hell is this… … ?’
Josephson tried to use his hand as soon as he secured evidence that Daryl had betrayed him.
However, when they are spread out like corpses, there is no way to say anything about betrayal.
First of all, he had to take revenge on the culprit who turned a member of Hanson’s gang into a half-asshole.
“Brother Daryl! Who the hell is doing this? Were you attacked?”
“Ugh… … .”
A painful moan escaped from slightly parted lips.
Daryl leans his head on Josephson’s lap.
He slowly reached out his hand.
chin!
Daryl gripped Josephson’s shoulder tightly.
It was to the point of wondering where the strength remained in this battered body.
“Yo, Josephson… … .”
“Speak!”
“How many did you bring… … ?”
“Ten people. If you include me, there are eleven people.”
“That, it’s nothing like that… … .”
“yes?”
“Joseph Son… … .”
thump!
Daryl’s hand, which had been gripping his shoulder, fell helplessly to the ground.
“older brother!”
Daryl’s body is limp like wet cotton!
He said to Josephson with his eyes drained of energy.
“… … Run away!”
