TEASER CHAPTER 7 PART 17
Arcmel
Continent, Cremazone Empire.
A
man was in a tavern in a certain town in this country.
He
was dressed in black-feathered clothes. He was drinking alone at the edge of
the tavern.
"Kuu~!
As I thought, a drink after work is so exceptional, isn't it~?"
A
man in black with a big smile on his face, drinking from a bottle of sake.
His
light tone contrasted with the gloomy clothes he was wearing.
It
was not unusual for cheerful voices to echo in a tavern. But for some reason,
the only voice coming from this tavern was that of this black-feathered man.
That
was expected. Every single person in the tavern was lying on the floor.
There
were about ten of them. The red liquid flowing from their bodies clearly showed
that the lives of the dozen or so had already been taken.
"Everyone
seems to be in a hurry, but you need to take your time. Calm down and take a
rest... Oh, you've taken a rest now!"
All
of the fallen people were dressed in ordinary clothing, but everyone who saw
them could tell that had well-trained bodies.
The
tavern was filled with a strange atmosphere. There was no doubt that something
was going on here.
At
that moment, the door creaked open and a well-dressed man entered.
The
man took one glance at the corpses lying on the floor and the black-feathered
man drinking happily in a pool of blood and squinted his eyebrows
uncomfortably.
"Looks
like it's done."
"Yes,
yes, it's done~! Even so, you're making your underlings work this hard to clean
up the pests, and do you even work as an executive~?'
"That's
why I hired you. I have nothing else to say. Take out that
"thing"."
They
were secret agents who had infiltrated the Cremazone Empire.
The
man in black took out a sealed book from his pocket and tossed it to the
client.
The
client, not seeming to be particularly concerned, took the book, put it in his
pocket, took out a sack in exchange, and tossed it to the black-feathered man.
When
the black-feathered man received the sack, he heard a heavy clatter. From the
mouth of the bag, a colorful jewel peeked out.
Looking
at the jewel, the black-feathered man smiled broadly and waved to his client.
"Thank
you every time~. I look forward to working with you in the future~."
"I
don't want anything to do with you. The corpse hunter "Corpse
Raven"."
The
client glanced at the Corpse Raven who smiled while surrounded by corpses,
looked utterly disgusted, and left the tavern early.
