“Go go go…!”

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!———!”

At the entrance of the huge sewer in District W, dozens of beggars could be seen fighting.

Even though they were using weapons like clubs, swords, and knives, none of them were good at fighting.

They were desperate to survive in this merciless world.

"Go through! Go through! Go through!"

“I liked it when he said there were a lot of people! But, each and everyone is fu*king useless!”

“Come on! Don’t fall back.”

Pigibib from 2nd street.

Eren from 17th street.

Baldhammer from 25th Street.

Scavengermouse from 42nd Street.

Countless beggars led their men to attack Freckle under Kent's command.

It was natural that many gathered at Kent’s call.

Freckle expanded his power while building grudges all over the place, so when the popular beggar Kent came with all the money and suggested fighting against Freckle together, they couldn’t refuse the offer.

Other than money and revenge, there was a realistic reason, because of which they couldn’t refuse.

“Max, butter, buddy, milk, BITE!!”

Olddog, who had gone under Freckle appeared and shouted.

The gentle dogs turned into wild beasts as soon as they heard their owner's command and ran to show their strength.

Grrrrrrrrrrr! Rrrrrrrrrrrr!

"Wait, wait a minute…Argh! My legs! My legs!”

“Fu*k! My dick! My dick! Stop itttttttt! Get this off! Urggggggghhhh”

“Ahhhhhhhhh……”

The union beggars, who had been pushing forward, staggered for a moment at the advent of fierce dogs.

They couldn’t do anything in front of olddog, who had been a powerful beggar in District W for a long time.

Soon, six beggars appeared from the inside, armed with shotguns, revolvers, and pistols.

“You bastards! Did you think you could take us down with those toys!?”

“I’ll make you all fu*king dog meat!!”

Saying those words, they pulled the trigger with his hand… No, they tried to pull it.

[Shadow Spike]

A shadow stretched out and moved towards the gunman.

The spikes that rose from the floor, pierced the bodies of beggars with guns at the same time.

Puk! Puk! Puk! Puk! Puk!

Oliver, wearing a hood on his face appeared from among the frightened beggars.

As soon as Freckle’s beggars saw Oliver using black magic, they were immediately terrified.

The only one who had the courage was olddog

“Guys! Bite!”

However, it was only the owner who had the courage to face Oliver.

The ferocious dogs were terrified as soon as they saw Oliver.

Their condition was way worse than Freckle’s subordinates, they folded their ears, curled their tails, and crouched down.

Kiii Kiiiii

“Hey, guys. What happened?”

“The dogs are also afraid of warlocks.”

Quarterstaff Kent came close to Olddog and spoke.

“Ha, you….you brought a warlock, that too a real one.”

“You’re half right and half wrong.”

"What?"

“I’ll explain later, for now, go to sleep.”

Kent swung the quarterstaff in his hand and knocked out Olddog.

Oliver stared at it silently, but Kent said an excuse.

“…because he was once Priest's friend."

"Um…"

Someone came out from among the beggars.

He was a beggar from 25th street with a bald head, a bushy beard, and a large hammer.

“Good! Good!! It was really great!!! You actually brought the Warlock!… Kent!”

The bald head with a sledgehammer in his hands looked into Oliver's eyes and said.

"If there was someone like this, you should've brought him out soon! That way we wouldn’t have had a hard time."

“…it’s not as easy as it sounds.”

"Haha! That's right. Come on, everyone! Let’s clean the pest that has been spoiling our district!"

“Woahhhhhhhhh!”

The beggars led by Baldhammer, entered the den of Freckle.

The beggars of Freckle gang who were guarding the sewer passage were immediately taken down, thanks to which Kent's gang of beggars directly flowed inside.

And, Kent followed along with Oliver.

"It's amazing. I didn't believe Freckle would have made a base here when you said it."

"Why?"

Kent said while looking at the dry sewer wall.

“Do you remember the last time when I said Landa had a big disaster in the past.”

“Yes…what is that disaster.”

“Well, there are many hypotheses, such as divine punishment, demon summoning, failed magic experiments, etc. Until the wizards and capitalists came together to rebuild this city, it was a cursed ruin.”

“Yes, I know that.”

"But, it's not like it has been completely rebuilt. Contaminated creatures sometimes appear in places where there are few people, or in a place that had been abandoned for a long time. It was the same here once."

“……once, then?”

"That's the problem… If Freckle has been using this place as his den, it must mean that there is a force behind him that was strong enough to clean up the contaminated creatures living….”

“Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

Before Kent could finish speaking, a scream was heard right in front of him.

More specifically, it was from the huge space at the end of the sewer passageway, and to everyone’s shock, there was a monstrous creature that was many times bigger than a human.

Hihihihihihihhihiihihihhhihihhihhi_____!]

Hihihhhaihihihihihihi

A creepy and disgusting cry was heard.

The appearance of the creature was like a hairless mouse.

The height was between 2 to 3m.

There were wrinkles all over its body, and it had reddish skin that made it look like it had a skin disease.

Its orange front teeth were very long and horrifying, but not comparable to the open belly, the pus, and the maggots that flowed throughout its whole body.

It was so monstrous that the huge iron nail that was struck on its head and the flask containing Life-force was relatively less noticeable.

“Oh my God…”

Baldhammer, who was leading the way, trembled in fear.

In a way, it was a natural reaction after seeing the nameless and terrifying creature that was digging and eating the belly of a fellow beggar alive.

SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH

The flesh, intestines, and blood of the person who had been slaughtered flowed out through the open stomach.

At that moment someone shouted.

"You bastards– You dare to intrude into my kingdom?"

A man with a small baton in one hand and an eyeball necklace around his neck appeared with a group of similar monsters.

People called him Freckle.

The monstrous creature which was preying on the beggar wrinkled its hideous nose as if it was hungry and pushed its jaw towards Freckle, and at that moment.

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii_!!

The monster shook its head in great pain when it tried to bite Freckle with its jaws.

“Hey, you are controlling that monster…… Aren’t you?”

Someone asked in surprise.

Freckle replied in high spirits.

"Yeah, you motherfu*kers. Did you think I would have trusted only those bi*ches who beg for money? It's better this way. I'll clean up everyone right now. Hey, since you guys are hungry?! Eat!”

As soon as Freckle finished his words, dozens of contaminated creatures rushed in.

The beggars shouted desperately as they ran around the way they came.

“Warlock! Yes! Call the Warlock!”

"Warlock?! Hahaha-! I don't care what kind of guy you have brought! But he can't kill all of these guys with his clumsy firepower. He is no match for the guy behind me!"

[Vine Shadow]

The contaminated creatures that had been running wild got tied by the shadow tentacles.

Hiiiiiihihihihihiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

Hiihhiihiihiiiihihihihihiiiii

The monsters growled and groaned, but the more they struggled, the more the shadow tentacles that rose from the floor put pressure on the monsters.

The monsters were so easily suppressed that not only the beggars who came along with Freckle, Freckle himself was dumbfounded by the sight he was seeing.

They couldn't understand the situation in front of them.

"Um…?"

While everyone was silent at the unbelievable scene, someone spoke up.

“Excuse me.”

Oliver with a hood on his head stepped forward.

He politely asked the beggars to move and went forward.

The beggars froze and walked away as Oliver told them to, and Oliver thanked them each time.

Oliver appeared in front of the mysterious creature, he then looked at the monster and asked.

"Oh…what is this?"

Kent replied, feeling a little absurd and afraid.

“… It’s a naked rat. A contaminated creature that lives in the abandoned sewers. It's only a low grade, but it’s a dangerous creature that preys on people.”

Oliver nodded and looked at the naked rat.

He looked at it as if he didn’t mind its bad smell or its hideous look.

No, it was not like he didn’t mind those things, it was just that his mind was somewhere else and was unaware of those things.

“…interesting? It is designed to make it easy to control its movements like zombies and the control could be also passed on to someone who couldn’t use magic. It was designed to be more stable and sustainable with hunger rather than anger or hatred. Impressive. ”

Oliver said while tapping the iron nail on the creature’s head, and the flask that contained condensed Life-force tied to the iron nail.

The naked rat that was suffering from starvation, pushed its big front teeth to bite Oliver who was observing him, but Oliver looked even that with great interest.

"They're zombies and their stomachs were split so that their hunger for food never dies. An unfulfilled desire becomes their driving force. It was a simple but effective method. I think the person who thought about this is an excellent Warlock.”

“Hey, the word you should use is terrible, not excellent.”

"Is that so?"

"Well, from our point of view… we feel sorry for those creatures, so, can you get rid of them? Everyone's scared."

Oliver stretched out his hand in the air while looking at the naked rats.

Then, the Life-force of the naked rat zombies got extracted.

“It was completely subdued, and yet it was a great creature. The person who created this didn't realize the true value of the creature, but…!!"

Oliver turned his head and looked towards Freckle.

"Um, Mr. Kent, I'd like to ask him some questions, is it possible?"

"… Nothing is impossible if it was Sir. Warlock’s will, I'll half-kill him and bring him to you."

Kent spoke while pointing his quarterstaff at Freckle's neck.

Soon, the heads of other unions stood next to Kent.

Freckle, who they believed to be invincible, was subdued so easily which made them a little disappointed, but they did not lose courage.

“Ugh-!”

After every beggar head finished venting out their anger by beating Freckle, Kent grabbed Freckle by the neck and asked.

“You couldn’t have controlled the monster like that by yourself. Who the hell are you holding hands with? And what are you going to say if everyone finds out what you did?"

“Ugh… Why should I worry about what those losers think about?”

“Only answer the questions asked.”

“Okay… Okay, that’s right, I handed over the overflowing garbage here, and with that money, I got those monsters.”

At those words, Kent grabbed Freckle's neck.

He was very angry, but nevertheless, Freckles murmured.

"Come to my side Kent! I'll recommend you to the person behind me."

"What?"

"Let's join hands Kent… I feel sorry for you right now and that’s why I'm proposing. The warlock you brought doesn't seem like an ordinary one, but the person behind my back is an even greater person. So let's work together from this point."

“What kind of bullshit are you talking about.”

"It's not bullshit. The person behind me is someone who can get rid of every one of us if he wants to. He's just supporting me because he hates being exposed. He is not a normal warlock!"

"Um… Excuse me, what kind of Warlock is he?"

Oliver interrupted suddenly.

The other beggar heads retreated not intervening with the warlock, who had shown an overwhelming performance.

"Haha… hahaha… He’s someone who is about to join the Black Hand."

“… What’s black hand?”

Freckle gave off a ridiculous look.

"… As a warlock you don't even know about the black hand? Stop lying."

“I really don’t know. Do you know what it is, Mr. Kent?”

Kent, too, made a face similar to that of Freckle.

“Uh… Simply put, it’s a criminal organization that mainly consists of warlocks, and they are a huge pillar of the underworld. You really don’t know?”

“Yes… Is that a wrong thing?”

“No, it’s not that…”

Freckle intervened.

"Really… Really Kent? He didn't even know what black hand was, and you have brought such a warlock to the support… If you dare to kill me, the warlock behind me will come and take revenge for me on every single one here."

"You're lying."

Oliver suddenly intervened.

"… What?"

“That was a lie. You don't even know if he'll get revenge if you die. You don't know if he'll do it or not."

“…are you pretending that you saw through my emotions just because you have some skills?”

"No, I didn’t pretend, I really looked through… How can I meet him? The person who wants to join the Black Hand."

“… Haha, it seems like you got overconfident after overpowering me. You want to meet him?”

"Yes."

"He comes only when he wants to. And he won't come just to meet anyone. When he shows up with his horrendous work… What… What are you doing?"

Freckle looked at Oliver who took off his necklace.

Oliver stared at the necklace intensely.

"Um… As expected."

"What is it?"

"This is not a normal necklace. It's the eye of the watchdog."

"What?"

"I've seen it in books. It's made of human eyeballs so that you can see this place from afar."

After the explanation, Oliver looked at the eyeball stuck in the middle of the necklace.

The stuffed eyes didn't respond, but Oliver's eyes clearly felt something.

A being that’s spying on him from the outside through the eyeball.

As Oliver’s concentration gradually increased, the vision of an ordinary human disappeared, and the vision of the warlock became clear.

When his concentration reached a certain level, Oliver could feel the presence of the person looking at him from the distance.

It was the like the only white line connected in a black world.

Perhaps, the other party also felt Oliver.

Kent looked at Oliver with worried eyes and asked.

“…are you all right?”

“…… Yes. I’m going to see this person for a while.”
