NOVEL NEXT Chapter 59.2
Soon, Isaac took Shuri to an empty room’s wardrobe in the dormitory.
‘A wardrobe?’
Why did this guy come to a place like this?
Soon Isaac flung open the door and crossed his arms as if asking Shuri to take a look.
‘Well, since he’s a guy who likes money, he must have stashed some money for the apprenticeship period…’
“Ugh! Ugh!”
“…”
Money is money, but this was human trafficking money. Damn it.
Looking at the boy trapped in the wardrobe, Shuri lost his vigor.
The chubby boy’s mouth was covered with a towel, and his body was tightly bound with a rope. Judging by his clothes, he was a fellow apprentice priest in the same room… Is he crazy?!
“Hey, crazy guy! What is this! He’s our teammate!”
This guy is causing a split, not harmony!!
The boy, as if pleading for his life, had teary eyes filled with despair.
Sure, who would have thought that such a thing would happen among priests. It’s understandable that he’s scared.
But Isaac was also from Blue. There must be a reason for this…
“Hey, he’s the son of a rich count. He must have cost a lot, right?”
…Oh Lord. Please take this guy away.
No, more importantly, does this guy know who this apprentice priest is?
“He’s the successor of the Eiji family!”
“Who?”
“Lilai’s uncle’s friend, Count Simon’s only son! One of the three wealthiest families in the Empire!!”
“So, should I sell him?”
“Hey!!!”
But Isaac said.
“A team that has already come up with a trick for the Pentagon quest.”
“A trick?”
“Yesterday, this guy went somewhere secretly with a suspicious letter. What was written in the letter? It said he would stop spying from now on.”
“!!”
The moment he heard those words, Shuri’s quick-moving head immediately turned grim.
“Is it the order of Naiser Sephet?”
Amon Eiji crouched down in fear of being hit. Isaac chuckled.
“Naiser Sephet ordered to mess up Eshua’s team for sure, right?”
At Isaac’s words, Amon Eiji and Shuri, who was close to him, closed their eyes tightly, and Shuri felt a sense of betrayal.
“No matter how much you are loyal as a vassal of the Red Duke’s family, your family head is also my uncle’s best friend. I thought Cout had a perfect relationship with Eshua… I didn’t know you would betray Eshua.”
Then Amon Eiji shed tears like chicken and tried to say something.
Isaac hit his head as if telling him to get rid of that face and removed the gag.
“I’m sorry! I couldn’t help it either! We also had reasons… Ouch!”
“I don’t care about your reasons. Just tell me what Naiser ordered regarding Eshua.”
After getting slapped by Isaac, Amon Eiji looked at Shuri as if seeking approval.
“Naiser ordered to thoroughly mess up Eshua’s team. ‘Shuri will suck other nobles’ asses for the sake of unity, so keep demanding ridiculous things and tearing the team apart’.”
Shuri widened his eyes in amazement, and Isaac seemed somewhat convinced.
“Oh, so that weird welcoming ceremony was his doing?”
“Uh, um…! They’re all people Naiser planted. To sabotage the
So, the nonsense about being tied up with ropes from the first meeting and all that was because of him?
With that kind of treatment, there’s no way harmony can be achieved.
“Isaac, especially since you gained attention at the ordination ceremony, he’ll target you more. Naiser is trying to monopolize the execution of the Skeleton King’s subordinates. It’s the most outstanding position where you can announce yourself as a Saint even to other countries.”
So, Isaac just laughed as if finding it cute.
‘Daring to execute someone else’s subordinates.’
After messing with the Skeleton King, now he’s targeting his subordinates?
He’s too greedy.
Already the ‘Red Faith’?
‘Already, I can’t look upon them favorably just because they are torture technicians in the prison where my subordinates are imprisoned.’
Anyway, both this guy, who keeps calling himself the Golden Cardinal, and this guy. These forerunners of the gods are bothering me.
“We should take care of them all at once.”
“…”
With those words, Shuri touched his face.
Alright, now what should he do with Isaac’s tongue?
* * *
“What? The spy says he can’t do it again??”
Naiser Sephet’s blood rose as if he was feverish.
On the fourth day of the apprentice priest training.
He had planted a spy in Blue to eliminate the rivals of the first virtue of
Because of that damn Skeleton that appeared at the ordination ceremony, Isaac was gaining attention.
So, while causing division, he also asked to gather information on Isaac Eshua.
‘I didn’t like it from the beginning.’
But they all said that they wouldn’t be able to get at least that much information.
-Uh, s-sorry. Just thinking about the juice party… I don’t think it’ll work!
-Holding a juice party… It seems unlikely.
Juice party?
‘Does Blue distribute bribes at the party or something?’
Or is it because Blue is getting attention because of the incident at the ordination ceremony, so they don’t want to do something harmful to the family?
Thinking that, Naiser Sephet became even angrier.
Ordination ceremony, ordination ceremony, ordination ceremony!
‘What kind of eyes can an eyeless skeleton see?’
And what else? Is the Purification sacred technique great?!
Sure, compared to the vision of Red, it’s at best an ordinary spell! But the Emperor himself was delighted that the child was a Saint!
‘Damn.’
He shouldn’t have accepted the recommendation from such a guy in the first place.
When he questioned his father about the matter, the Red Cardinal just smiled meaningfully.
-Curious about how valuable the power that child has become, right?
Ugh, what nonsense!
Eshua’s power is just average!
‘Stupid bastards who can’t even catch the Skeleton King.’
-So, would you like to invite that child to Red?
Invite?! To Red?!
Is he crazy, calling someone like him to Red?
But it didn’t matter.
‘Today is the day of the harmony theme.’
Refusing to bring back information because it could harm the family, even if they said that, today’s evaluation was different.
There were reliable people in Isaac’s team during the evaluation. People who would undoubtedly betray Eshua during the Pentagon evaluation.
‘Well, let Red take the honor of executing the Skeleton King’s subordinates.’
Naiser went to the evaluation hall with an expectant face.
