Become Tyrant On My Own Way
Chapter 69 – ACTUAL APPEARANCE OF WITCH
In one of the dungeon rooms, the bonfire lit up accompanied by the appetizing scent of meat. Albert and his party were enjoying their meal while waiting for his master to come out from behind the other dungeon doors.
“Hmm. It's really delicious, Alice. You are the best. I never thought I could enjoy a fancy meal while on an expedition.”
“I experience on previous expeditions. Despite not saying so, Mr. Helios looks very uncomfortable eating preserved meat. Hehehehehe. Oh yeah, by the way, it's been almost an hour, but Mr Helios hasn't been back? I'm so worried about him.”
Alice's expression was moody.
However, Albert remains focused on his goal of making Codi uncomfortable. Apparently, there was one person in the party who was isolated in the delicious eating atmosphere.he was Codi, the lone wolf. Or is it more appropriate to call him a loner snake? Since the codename that Leon set her was Snake.
True, Codi was isolated in the party because he was basically not part of the Helios group. He was one of Leon's confidants.
“Hmm. Alice is the best. Thanks to you the party atmosphere becomes more lively with this luxurious food. Unlike someone who usually just complains, but can not help anything.”
While saying that, Albert glanced at Codi. Albert looked annoyed at her. However, Codi just pretended not to care about that eye gaze.
“Cih, I don't need any food from you either. This hard meat alone was enough to make me full. After all, any knight so mushy could not survive the expedition without grilled meat. As I suspected, the upbringing of His Highness Prince Leon was the best. Not like the upbringing of someone who failed. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Just look at his protege.”
Codi provoked Alice and Albert, who immediately made Alice and Albert ride black.
“What did you say?! You just insulted our Master!”
“If you want to fight, here! I'll show you who's better among us!”
Unexpectedly, different from his usual behavior, it was Nunu who came out as the most mature person among them.
“Until when are you going to act like a child? Don't you realize that Mr Helios is now fighting to risk his life in there while we're preoccupied with relaxing here? At least you should calm down while praying for the safety of Mr. Helios.”
Albert and Alice fell silent and could not say anything more about Nunu's words. Both apologized at the same time.
“Sorry.”
“Sorry.”
Now it was Nunu's turn to approach Codi.
“Master Codi too, here I give you one skewer. Eat.”
“Cih, I don't need kindness from you guys.”
Hearing Codi's disrespectful speech, an x sign forms at the temple of Nunu. But for Nunu who has become accustomed to facing a naughty little sister with a rougher mouth in his hometown, Codi's attitude is like a pile of dust compared to a mudhole.
“You also do not need to insist so head. This is all for the success of the party. Try to imagine what would happen if you suddenly just fainted due to lack of food in the middle of the fight, huh? Didn't you think about it? At least accept this and do not think of it as a kindness, but rather as your professionalism in the work. Aren't you assigned by Mr Leon to help our party?”
And unexpectedly, Codi can be tamed by Nunu.
He also received the food given by Nunu obediently and no longer showed arrogance.
A short while after that, finally what was waiting for them finally arrived as well. Dungeon door that somehow disappeared to where, suddenly appeared and opened again, then Helios was out of there.”
“Mr Helios!”
“Master.”
“Master.”
Helios immediately greeted the man with open arms to embrace with a warm smile.
However, Helios could not take much more time and immediately told his party to get ready to go home.
“Come hurry.”
“But, Master, you'd better eat first with two or three mouthfuls. I've prepared your part.”
“Thank you, Alice.”
Helios opened her mouth and Alice quickly fed the master. But Helios' decision to hurry did not change.
That was because the city was currently in a mess about the monster attack and based on the information from Milanda, it was all caused by the Demon King.
They sped up their footsteps, no, the party ran two to three times faster than when they came here.
“Master, has the dungeon been successfully overcome?”
“At least Milanda's dungeon is normal as it was, Albert. So I guess it only takes time for these mists to return to normal as usual.”
“No. There's not a single one. Although there is, this is not the right time to discuss it. For now, let's focus on moving fast.”
“I understand, Master. But, Master, is the current state of the city really that serious? Isn't there His Highness Prince Leon in the city right now. Also there is Damian who is quite tough. I don't think Master needs to worry too much about the security of the city when there are great people like them there.”
Helios no longer responded to Albert's statement and chose to remain silent. But inwardly, Helios could not help his doubts.
'Hopefully so. May my foolish brother not plan a dangerous scheme just because of a moron like the throne. Same with that suspicious Damian.'
“Ah.”
Helios soon realized that there was going to be an impromptu attack suddenly aimed at his party.
“Master, beware!”
Alice, the tanker, soon realizes it and quickly stands before Helios and friends to prevent the attack from hitting her party.
“Puaaaaakh!”
There was a great sound of shock about Alice's golden armour. However, the woman was still able to stand firmly.
“Good work, Alice. Stay in standby position. Maybe you have felt it, the fog moves back unnaturally. Focus on attacking the weapon and do not release any magic or aura. It's an order, understand?”
“Ready, Master.”
“Understanding.”
“Good, Mr. Helios.”
Each of Helios' men gave a different answer as usual, but they obeyed the command well because they were always convinced that there would always be a purpose for each of his master's orders.
And although Codi remained silent, he also obeyed Helios' orders in honor of his master, Leon. Because even though he was not shown, as one of the closest to his master, Codi realized that how much Leon loved the brother he always called trash.
Codi was solely protecting Helios because he knew that Leon would surely be saddened if Helios were to be injured on this expedition.
The sharp Helios soon realized that there was invisible poison mixed into the fog.
“Excellent! It's absolutely incredible! I never thought there would be a human figure who could see into my trap.”
The voice of the woman was heard with a loud voice that echoed around them. However, due to the effects of the reverberation, Helios and the party struggled to guess the exact position the woman's voice came from. Even Helios who was sensitive to the flow of mana was made confused by him, even though the figure actually channeled his voice through mana.
The woman or so the prediction of Helios and the party based on the voice of the figure, seems to be a witch who is very good at manipulating mana to even be able to deceive Helios.
“Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang.”
A figure hidden in the fog began to attack them, but in accordance with the commandments of Helios, the, his party members survived well only by using their weapons without being fed by mana or aura so that they did not become poisoned by the poison mixed in the fog.
“Thank God that I've practiced spearmanship with Mr. Damian before.”
“Nunu, stay focused.”
“Please, Alice, you focus on protecting Mr. Helios.”
With Albert's main attacking formation at the front and Codi at the back, Nunu acts as support for the attack around Helios and Alice as his main protector, the party maintained such a pattern of attacks for a while.
Helios was able to concentrate fully on implementing the new style that Milanda had just taught him since he could entrust to his men for defense as well as counter-attack.
Then a few moments later,
“Netralization.”
The entire strange mist that the poison was infusing instantly disappeared from before Helios' party, unraveled by Helios's spell-rewriting skill.
It was obvious what was attacking them in front were some crazy looking orc figures. And who led the orcs, beyond their expectations was a beautiful woman whose beauty was similar to the nuances of Yasmin and Milanda.
“This is amazing. I never thought there would be a human who could break my spell. As expected of the second.” human choice
“Who are you?”
Albert immediately stood before his master while asking for the identity of the suspicious woman who was suddenly in front of them.
“Oh, sorry for my disrespect for forgetting to introduce myself. Introduce, I am the third member of the battalion of the great five witch of the demon king's army, Angele.”
Answer the suspicious woman with a smile that is no less suspicious of her as well.
