Only I Have Two Towers Episode 296
Interest
Under the Deck of the Work Vessel.
“Hiiiek!”
Terrified Duko fell on his backside.
A being with purple eyes whose entire body was covered in tattoos.
That being had just smashed the head of a Guild official moments ago.
“You are…!”
He was surprised by the situation itself.
But unlike Duko, Rogadu wasn’t frightened.
Because he recognized him immediately.
He realized that the being before his eyes was Renia, who had been rowing diligently to Odongtongi’s rescue calls.
“Who the hell are you!?”
“How dare you touch the Guild!”
The Guild members who had followed drew their respective weapons and aimed them at Renia.
Regardless, Renia stretched his body with an indifferent expression, making cracking sounds.
The corners of Renia’s mouth slowly curved upward.
As always, our master has such good instincts.
The sudden breakdown of the power equipment, the rescue team not coming despite firing signal flares, an environment they couldn’t escape from on their own.
The master didn’t just let this series of events slide.
That’s why he left Renia behind just in case.
If someone wanted Rogadu and the work crew dead, he judged they would react in some form the moment these people returned alive.
“Die!!”
Dozens of projectiles were fired from three or four weapons.
Renia instinctively tried to dodge but stopped his movement.
Kwagagagagak!!
“Y-you…!”
Startled Rogadu opened his mouth.
He knew well what weapons they had used.
Mid-range striking weapons that could easily shatter rocks at this distance.
Renia had taken it all with his body.
“No need to make a fuss. It just stings a bit.”
Renia lowered his crossed arms.
Several streams of blood flowing down his arms.
Rogadu’s eyes widened.
There was bleeding, but the wounds were very shallow.
Weapons that could shatter rocks had only managed to scratch his skin.
What kind of body did he possess?
“Th-this monster…”
The Guild member’s words couldn’t be finished.
A fist swung at invisible speed, crushing the man’s left cheekbone.
The other Guild members tried to use their weapons afterward, but it was futile.
Renia instantly dodged and burrowed downward.
What followed was easy.
As he systematically smashed necks and faces, the Guild members fell to their knees one by one.
“Ugh… ugh.”
The last remaining Guild member threw down his weapon and turned around.
It was a monster.
He couldn’t win against something like that.
“Stop. Move one more step and I’ll crush your head.”
“!!!”
The man who was about to climb the stairs stopped his movement.
He instinctively realized.
This wasn’t a simple threat or bluff.
The moment he lifted this foot, his life would be over.
Renia shook the blood off his fist and tilted his head.
“Come closer.”
The Guild member approached slowly, his face pale as a sheet.
Clatter clatter clatter clatter clatter.
His teeth chattered incessantly from fear that far exceeded his capacity.
His body trembled like an aspen tree, making even taking each step difficult.
He almost wanted to just faint.
When the man got somewhat close, Renia looked at Rogadu.
“Ask whatever you want to ask. And you, hesitate even for a second and I’ll kill you.”
“Yes… yes! P-please spare me.”
After taking several deep breaths, Rogadu asked the man.
“Did the Guild… sabotage the power source?”
“Y-yes.”
“Why? What wrong did my work crew and I do to the Guild? We’ve never disobeyed orders even once, have we?”
They might have made some mistake without knowing.
But it couldn’t have been a mistake big enough for the entire work crew to die.
“I-I don’t know either. I just moved according to the orders that came down.”
Cold sweat ran down Rogadu’s back at the thought that crossed his mind.
He absolutely hoped it wasn’t true, but he had to confirm.
“By any chance… this isn’t the first time, is it?”
Rogadu’s body swayed as the man slowly nodded.
Not often, but it happened occasionally.
People who suddenly left Pamillan one day and moved somewhere else.
They left without even saying goodbye, so he thought they had some urgent business, but that wasn’t it.
“Who gave such terrible orders? Why? Everyone just worked as they were told. Was it the Guild?”
“Th-that’s…”
“I’ll kill you at three. One.”
The terrified man screamed.
“It-it’s the Guild Master! I received it directly from the Guild Master! That’s all I know! It’s true, so please believe…”
Crack!
Renia’s back hand struck the man’s face.
The man flew and crashed into the wall.
He seemed to have said everything he knew, so there was no need to keep him alive any longer.
“Go throw them away.”
Renia carried all the corpses at once and went up to the deck.
Splashing sounds could be heard several times from not far away.
Renia returned and looked alternately at Duko and Rogadu.
“Wait outside. It would be better to erase the traces that those guys were here.”
Rogadu nodded and sat down on the ground.
Perhaps because the threat was gone, his legs gave out.
“Duko. I’m sorry. I got you involved in dangerous business.”
“Don’t say that. But what is all this about…”
Rogadu, who had briefly covered his face with his palms, got up.
“Let’s clean up first and then go out. Duko, you were never here. Understand? Then you’ll be safe.”
The ones from the Guild hadn’t used force from the beginning either.
They revealed their true nature right after they noticed that Duko had discovered the flaw in the power source.
As long as they hide this fact, there shouldn’t be any immediate danger.
“Ah, I understand.”
Duko and Rogadu picked up nearby mops and began wiping away the bloodstains.
Rogadu’s face contorted.
It was a situation that was hard to understand.
What on earth was happening?
Here on Pamiran, the Island of Innocence.
Dawn was breaking with a dim twilight.
I got up at the sound of a door opening.
It seemed Rogadu had returned.
I quietly climbed through the window to the top of the house.
“!?”
I stopped in my tracks, startled.
Renyaaaa?!
It was my first time seeing it.
The sight of Demon Renyah bleeding.
“What’s this much.”
I quickly walked over and examined the wound.
Perhaps because his body was so well-trained, the wound itself was shallow.
But I couldn’t just leave it alone.
I took out a small bottle from my bag.
“This is a disinfectant that Ellia said works really well.”
“You can just leave it. That medicine is more worrying.”
I was surprised once again.
That Renia saying he was worried?
Just how widely spread was the infamy of Ellia, the first alchemist?
“Still, I need to disinfect it. Don’t worry. I tried applying this first. It doesn’t hurt at all. She said I could just spray it roughly… Should I spray it?”
Renia nodded with a half-believing face.
His expression seemed to say how much could it possibly hurt.
I opened the cap and swung the bottle refreshingly from left to right.
Ellia-brand disinfectant poured onto the wound with a splashing sound.
In an instant, Renia’s eyes widened.
Even the wrinkles that formed very faintly around his mouth.
It seemed like he was clenching his molars with all his might.
“Are, are you okay? That’s strange. When I applied it last time, it didn’t hurt much… Ah.”
Realizing something, I scratched my head.
“I had applied it on bare skin. Sorry, Renia.”
Since I hadn’t been injured recently, I had just sprayed it carelessly on my intact arm.
After trembling like that for a while, Renia let out a deep sigh.
Without a doubt, this was the worst.
None of the pain he had experienced so far could compare to this.
“Huh.”
I lowered my head at Jinhyeok pointing with his finger.
“Huh.”
The wound began to heal with a hissing sound.
The recovery speed was so fast that it was distinguishable to the naked eye.
I had no choice but to acknowledge it.
This party was abnormal in a good way.
“Since, since it’s healed, it should be okay, right?”
I shrugged my shoulders at my master who was trying hard to give a thumbs up.
Then I told him about what happened on the galley ship earlier.
“I thought about bringing him back alive but gave up.”
“You did well. He would have told us everything he knew.”
The keyword ‘guild leader’ was given.
This was enough.
“I should go for an interview tomorrow. To the guild. Good work, Renia.”
Renia lightly nodded and turned around.
“Ah.”
Renia looked at me as if something had occurred to him.
“Be careful. There’s something strange on the island.”
“Something strange?”
“It’s a strong one.”
Renia, who possessed excellent senses even within the party.
It was a bit different from Kancheo the Yodel Ranger’s presence detection.
How should I put it, it was closer to animal instinct, making impossibly sharp detections at unspecified times.
If that Renia was saying this, there must definitely be something formidable.
“Okay! I’ll be careful.”
Renia disappeared from sight as he released his manifestation.
I rubbed my chin and looked around the island.
The Head of the Ediren Family.
The strong person Renia mentioned was most likely that person.
To think that my martial arts master would give such a high evaluation to someone.
I became more and more curious.
How strong would he be?
I wanted to meet him soon.
As soon as day broke, I came out to the main street of Pamillan.
I came both to grasp the terrain and to visit the guild at the end of the main street.
‘The morning breeze is refreshing again.’
I seemed to have had too much prejudice because of the sticky, pitch-black sea.
A breeze no different from any other coastal area.
I slowly moved my steps while feeling the pleasant wind.
Before long, a large sign appeared.
# Weapon Smith’s Street.
Ding!
[You have discovered the weapon street of Pamillan Island! The clear conditions for the 25th floor of the Mythic Tower are updated!]
[There are many weapon craftsmen in Pamillan! You must find an uncontaminated craftsman among them and listen to their story! Basic personal information of weapon craftsmen residing on the island is updated!]
Swoosh!
I frowned at the names unfolding in the air.
Judging by how thin the scroll bar had become, there were at least hundreds of people.
But hundreds of craftsmen on just this small island.
Could this be right!?
It was a moment that reminded me of the dozens of original Anheung steamed bun shops I saw in Anheung.
[Meet the craftsmen on the list! If you collect more than a certain amount of information, you can find out whether the craftsman is contaminated!]
This wouldn’t do.
Meeting them all would take at least a month or two.
[Spiritual Eye]
As soon as I opened my eyes, my brow furrowed.
Thanks to the murky divine power, the whole world had become pitch-black.
Now it seemed to match well with the Black Sea.
I walked leisurely while looking around my surroundings.
Here too was a weapon craftsman, over there too was a weapon craftsman, here too was murky energy, over there too was murky energy.
Then, I stopped in my tracks at the energy flowing out from between some alley.
It was the first time since coming to Pamillan.
That I had seen divine power mixed with nothing else.
I smiled and walked following the energy.
It would be at the end of this energy.
The clear condition for this floor and the only uncorrupted craftsman.
