Shadow King Chronicles: Building a Kingdom From Behind the Scenes
Chapter 53: Frustration
"Hei Is... wasn't that an amazing match?!" uwaahhh, Sasha smiled but her eyes didn't smile! the cold is running from my back. Well, surely something bad is going to happen!
"I'm confused as to why Issac was just running around instead of fighting Clifford." Anna tilted her head.
This naughty girl is playing with fire! come on, I told you that I won't win this game, after all, giving a despicable victory to a Clifford-like person was my goal from the start!
"It's Sasha, we know Is's nature like that so there's no need to put on a face like that okay."
Ohhh, Misha seems to have resigned to my behavior! but he was understanding as expected of my older brother.
"By the way Is, I was curious about the pill that Clifford used during the match.What kind of pill could produce such a large side effect?"
I just shook my head to hear Sasha nee-san's question. To be honest I really don't know. that's because I'm not an expert in Alchemis or a doctor who knows the different types of pills that exist in this world.
well I will try to find the origin of the pill in the academy then buy it and send the sample to the Research and Development Division of La-Sa guild to investigate later.there I have many talented Alchemists. maybe in the future the pill will be able to be repaired and traded legally.
well, I'm no longer interested in this tournament, so let's solve another problem.

"What a Wolf! you've solved everything well." The sound of footsteps accompanied by applause came from outside the control room.
some of the wolf's men who had been accompanying Wolf in the control room reflexively almost attacked the person before finally being restrained by Wolf.
"Welcome, sir, it was a very annoying fight.if you were not my boss, I would have slammed you, beat you, then dumped you into the sea the next day."
hearing the Wolf frankly the man chuckled.
"sorry, I just want to play a little bit" the man replied as he stuck out his tongue.
"You're always playing games, sir." Wolf let out a long breath.
"Who is this boy, by the way? looks like the boss has a lot of respect for you, huh?"
Black Cat headed towards that person with a short sword unsheathed.I don't know what his intentions were.but before he could reach that person, he fell to his knees.His body suddenly trembled in fear.
What kind of aura is this?! in his entire life facing so many opponents, he had never felt as scared as he was now! it was as if he was looking at the Angel of Death behind this boy!
"Stop Black Cat. He is your current supreme leader. Issac R Starfall. Even though he is only 13 years old, he can just kill you even if there are a thousand people with the same strength as you."
Wolf calmly explained who the boy was to Black Cat. well even though he was almost wet with the aura issued by Issac, but because he was the boss of this unit, he has to look after his Marwah.
"I'm sorry for my rudeness sir!" Black Cat immediately prostrated before Issac.he just smiled amusedly at the behavior of Black Cat.
"hhhh, your attitude suddenly changed huh."
Black Cat scratched his non-itchy head, "No matter who it is, I only work for the strong.that's all."
Black Cat laughed, "Of course! what is more precious than the life of a man?"
Issac grinned, "Heh, you should have asked yourself that, I'm sure those you killed would have cursed you from hell if you heard what you said."
Black Cat tilted his head, "Killing humans? I've never done that, I've only been asked by pigs to kill other pigs.
I'm sorry, but I never considered the usurpers, rapists, and other random people just because they had the last name of that mysterious family as human beings. I think they're nothing more than humanoid-shaped pigs."
Oh, my God, this guy. Issac was massaging his temple.he was indeed talented and outstanding.but his mind was a bit extreme.if there were nobles who heard this person's remarks, especially the nobles, were, his head will definitely be displayed in the capital's square.
but it doesn't matter, however, it's good to get loyal people not only because you're strong, but because your values match what he believes in.
"Alright let's forget about that. ah right, you must be Black Tiger right? I've heard you from Wolf. welcome to this unit." Issac held out his hand. Black Tiger happily accepted his handshake.
"It's nice to work under you, sir, please cooperate with him." Issac nodded.
"By the way Wolf is, you're done extracting their memories right? why was the body just left?"
Issac noticed the condition of the bodies of the White Goat group.he was not disgusted, even felt tragic.The group who liked to play with the lives and deaths of others like them should end up with a broken neck like that.
"ahhhh how should I say this. I had wanted to let the chairman who was sprawled with his broken neck alive in order to become a souvernir for the lord.but, but, uh, it seems like my other subordinates are overdoing it so much that his neck was accidentally broken."
e-e-ehhh. Issac was confused as to how to respond. "Then, what do you get?"
Wolf shook his head, "their memory was even vague about the person who hired them.The person who hired them was a person dressed all in black and wearing a black hood. they paid 300 gold coins for their action without giving a clear purpose.that's all we got."
Issac held his chin. seemed to think hard. "do you not have any guesses about this?"
Wolf shook his head. Unfortunately he also had no clue about this. Issac looked somewhat frustrated.For Wolf it was a rather refreshing expression because it was rarely Issac like that.
"On their target? are there any specific details?" Wolf shook his head again,
"Unfortunately the tenant doesn't specifically target someone.he says whatever, nobleman who can."
huhhh..this was quite troublesome for Issac. not knowing the main motive and having no other clues.their workings were very clean.there was no choice but to keep an eye on the Dark Guild's movements.
"On behalf of the Chief Agent of VIESTA, I command the Secret Unit 001/Wolfgang, to investigate the various organizations that take shelter under the Dark Guild.coordinate with the Research and Analysis division to observe their movements!
I allow you to take every action deemed useful in an attempt to eliminate the enemy and prevent information leakage! that's it. Now immediately clean up their bodies and make sure to remove various pieces of evidence."
Wolf, Black Tiger, and Black Cat kneel before Issac,
"Understand Master!!" they shouted in unison.with this, the chaos of the tournament could be prevented and new tasks awaited them.
