LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 140: 140
Her wives, except for Jazlyn, who already knew about Siri's shocking statement, opened their mouths in shock.
Blood Rose is a large criminal organization that dominates Rafal City, east of Brisen City, and runs the largest black market in the empire. After Aris, Jenny, and I destroyed the headquarters of the White Viper, an assassination organization, I received a ticket to the Blood Rose Black Market from an unknown woman.
"Then why did you live with a disability?"
"She lost the battle of power and was left with every bone in her body broken, and her skills sealed away."
"I don't understand. "If it were me, I would just kill you."
"That's because… My sister hated me. The former leader of the Blood Rose was my father, and I had a twin sister, Celie. Celie disliked me very much because I was always ahead of her in skills. Still, Celie's political sense was better than mine. Once her father chose me as her successor, she, Celie, staged her coup, killing her father and becoming boss herself. I resisted to the last, but was eventually caught and tortured. "Rather than kill me, Celie punished me with a life of beggar."
"That happened. "If you hadn't met me, you would have had to live like that."
"I am truly grateful to the owner."
"But why did you live like that?"
"I lived tenaciously because I thought the opportunity for revenge would come someday, but serving my master is more important now."
"It was inevitable that you met me. I plan to use you to obtain the Blood Rose and rule Rafal City. "Are there still those who were loyal to you in the Blood Rose?"
"I do not know. If Celie dies, I can take control of the Blood Rose."
"You will get the Blood Rose again."
"Thank you!!"
Ciri lifted her head and pledged her loyalty to me again.
"I, Siri, swear to serve my master for the rest of my life! Even if I get the blood roses, they are all yours!"
"Well said."
"Now I will show you my true hair color."
Suddenly, Siri's hair changed from brown to red. Siri now has blood-red curly hair.
"What! Why does my hair change color?"
"The leader of the Blood Rose has had blood-red hair for generations. Celie was told to hide her red hair for the rest of her life if she wanted to live, but she will not hide it anymore."
"Do it that way. We have your back. You are not alone What abilities do you have?"
"I am an assassin and I can be a guide in dungeon exploration. "My main weapon is a silk sword."
When Ciri held out her hand, her sharp threads came out of her sleeves and flopped like her squid legs.
"I can cut my opponent into pieces with these four swords. When assassinating, the opponent is killed by stabbing them between the eyes, spine, or heart with the end of a thread."
Now you can move safely while assassinating people you don't like or detecting traps and monsters in the dungeon. Siri's arrival made up for my party's shortcomings.
"Show your usefulness from now on. You are too talented to be a pastor. "I will appoint you as Cardinal Lucky."
"I will live up to your expectations!!!"
"Okay. Now let's stay for dinner."
As I listened to Siri, quite a bit of time passed. I need to eat it quickly before dinner gets cold. As I lifted my spoon and ate a spoonful of rice, my wife started eating dinner. Siri also sits down and enjoys her meal.
The day ended as we finished eating and talked to each other. Tomorrow, my wife, Siri, and I will be exploring the dungeon for the mid-performance evaluation of the dungeon exploration class.
***************************
The next day, I, Jenny, Aris, Lena, Kasha, Jazlyn, Kalere, and Siri woke up in the dark of dawn and left for the warp gate of Brisen City in a large luxury carriage. Kazan, a member of the dungeon exploration class, used hypnosis to keep him from coming. Kazan's name will be included in the report, so it is no loss to Kazan. The inside of the carriage was very spacious and had furniture, so we could all sit comfortably.
Jazlyn clapped her hands to get her attention.
Clap clap clap
"I'll explain the dungeon we're going to. Everyone, please focus."
Everyone's attention was focused on Jazlyn.
"I've been researching the Winnie tribe ever since Honey found Pooh's shield. You all know that the Winnie tribe are great primitive animal spirits who raised Robin, the first emperor and warrior of the Adrian Empire. After Robin chose Brisen City as his capital, the Winnie tribe disappeared from history. Many happy fairy tales of the Winnie tribe remain, but the details of why and where they disappeared have not been revealed. "I think there was a dark undertone to the disappearance of the Winni tribe that the imperial government of the time deliberately left out of history."
Jazlyn took a sip of her milk to quench her thirst and continued her speech.
"The exact location is not recorded in many fairy tales and mythological stories of the Winni tribe. It just says that such things happened. However, this time, when Honey discovered Pooh's shield, she was able to pinpoint the location of the Winnie tribe. By linking the stories chronologically and comparing them to ancient geography, I was able to infer the route the Winni tribe took."
After all, Jazlyn is able to do what others can't.
"In the last fairy tale of the Winnie tribe, Piglet goes on a journey to find a land flowing with milk and honey. She knows that Piglet is a cute little bipedal pig spirit from the Winnie tribe. The fairy tale ends with Piglet arriving in a land flowing with milk and honey and becoming king of the native Piggy tribe. "Here's a hint."
"So, did you find out where the Winnie tribe is?"
"Yes. According to my prediction, there is a land flowing with milk and honey that Piglet found in the Honey Milk Forest in the east of the empire."
"Isn't it too vague to be inferred only from a fairy tale?"
"There is a record that about 700 years ago, a 90 cm tall pink pig that walked on two legs like a human was discovered in the Honey Milk Forest. The pink pig said he was a Piggy, and as soon as he came out of the forest, he died and was stuffed and sold to a nobleman. Just looking at this, I think there must be something in the Honey Milk Forest that can help Piglet reach it."
"Why couldn't the others be found?"
"That's the problem. Many adventurers searched the Honey Milk Forest to find the Piggy, but could not find them. I think Piglet played with space and hid the land flowing with milk and honey. "The Winnie tribe was strong and outstanding enough to fight against the evil god's minions."
"We couldn't find the adventurer, so how can we find him?"
This time Jenny asked Jazlyn a question.
"I think the answer lies in Pooh's shield, which Honey has. Pooh and Piglet were best friends. If she has Pooh's energy, she might be called Piglet. She has to break even. If this exploration fails, you can go to another dungeon."
I agree with Jazlyn. If you come to this world, shouldn't you explore it at least once?
"Let's do as Jazlyn says. "If she meets Piglet, she might get something, right?"
"All right. First, we will go to Honey Milk City through the warp gate. Honey Milk City is a large city bordering the Honey Milk Forest. As the name suggests, it is famous for the honey collected from the Honey Milk Forest."
A warp gate is a device that moves people or objects to other warp gates within an empire in the blink of an eye and allows fast travel across a huge empire. To use a warp gate, you have to pay a large amount of money that commoners cannot afford, so it is mainly used by nobles and rich people.
We arrived at the warp gate of Brisen City. When we got off the carriage, the soldiers saluted loudly towards Jazlyn.
"Loyalty! Meet the princess!!"
"I will move to Honey Milk City."
"Yes! I will prepare!!"
Perhaps because we came early in the morning, there was no waiting line. We were guided by the soldiers into a wide circular device surrounded by thick pillars.
Soon the warp gate activated and light came out from the floor.
Weeeee
It felt like gravity had disappeared for a moment, and then the scenery outside the warp gate changed.
Soldiers with different faces than before saw Jazlyn and rushed over to salute her.
"Loyalty! Meet the princess! Welcome to Honey Milk City!!"
"Is Mayor Honey Milk not there?"
The soldiers' faces become contemplative, and they are embarrassed.
"Ugh! "I'll call you quickly!"
"Hey! "Bring the mayor!!"
Jazlyn burst into laughter and stopped her soldiers.
"Hohohohoho!! You don't have to call me. "It's a joke."
"Oh! Okay!"
"I'm traveling with my group, so don't worry."
"Have a comfortable trip!!"
We received a polite greeting from the soldiers and left the warp gate. I know this because I served in the military. Jazlyn may have done it as a joke, but the soldiers must have felt like they had been stoned. From the soldiers' perspective, it is the same as having a 4-star suddenly come and ask where the division commander is.
As I made a shitface, Jazlyn leaned her head on my shoulder and fawned over me.
Hehe~ Honey~ Are you upset because the soldiers pretended to know only me?"
"It's not really that…"
"It's okay~ Someday everyone will serve you."
"Thank you."
Jazlyn shouted a warning to the group.
"Honey Milk City is a famous tourist destination, so it's crowded with people, so be careful not to separate from each other!"
"Jazlyn. Don't worry. Because we can absolutely know where Zeon is. "If we find Zeon, we can gather at any time."
Aris answers and Jazlyn nods her head.
"That's true too. "Honey is our central point~"
Everyone accepts it calmly, but in some ways it is a very scary story. No matter what I do, my wives know.
'Ciri is not blessed with a girl in love, but is blessed with universal loyalty. Can she find me?'
"Hey Siri. Can you find me too?"
"Yes. Thanks to my loyalty, I can pinpoint your location down to the millimeter."
"Wow…"
You can't hide this, right? Since I am safe, let's comfortably think that good things are good things.
