Deathmatch Prelude: Kidnapping and the List

In the clinic at No. 15 Caronton Road, North District, Arthur and Johns were asking their old friend Jess whereabouts with a petite nurse in white.

"What? You said Dr. Jess didn't come to work today?" Arthur stood up straight. He was 1.8 meters tall and close to 1.9 meters tall. In the eyes of the little nurse, he was no different from a tall orc. "He is not going to do it because of that.

Someone who has other things that disturb his daily life...could he be sick?"

Leaving the clinic with doubts, Arthur scratched his short hair. Now he could only go back to the mansion. Johns, who was following Arthur, quickly followed Arthur's pace: "Leader, who is this doctor?

"

"He? A combat madman, extremely bloodthirsty, and a master of close combat. It's strange, forget Nighthawk, it might leave the city, but how could Jace, who keeps repeating his daily life in letters..." Arthur briefly introduced him

The impression of Jace, and Johns on the side also suddenly realized after hearing Arthur's introduction, murmuring: "Surgical murderer, Jace, I haven't heard about him for a long time."

The two of them walked around Goss Street in the North District to avoid the arbitration office, and walked to an unknown alley in the West District. Arthur turned back and continued to talk to Johns: "By the way, Johns, you'd better give me a rough price."

Well, I need to know how much it would cost to build a school as big as a charity school."

"Arthur...you don't really want to set up a school, do you? It will cost 200,000 Ed at least...Wait, Arthur, that's it!" Arthur's attention passed through Johns's

The shouts quickly focused on the central corner of the alley without light. There, four unknown soldiers in brown military uniforms were loading a tall muscular man into a black sack. Their cruel methods made Arthur feel that those

The soldiers did not regard the muscular man as a human being at all. Arthur, who had always disliked official organizations, immediately rushed forward to save the man, but was grabbed by the arm by Johns behind him and dragged behind the piled cardboard boxes.

"What are you doing? Johns?" Arthur's tone was obviously angry.

"Leader, don't worry! I have the impression that these people are the top five noble private troops in Brighton City. I'm not sure which marquis they serve, but if we provoke these people, we will be dead!

"Johns covered Arthur's mouth to prevent him from speaking too loudly and attracting the other person's attention.

"Damn it, you are a powerful man again, you are blatantly kidnapping citizens in the daytime. Do you know who the kidnapped man is?" Arthur suppressed the anger in his heart. Ever since Arthur knew that Mrs. Inno was going to hand over

After spending a lot of money to maintain his daily life, Arthur has no good impression of the so-called nobles. Coupled with the things he encountered when he went to the Elf Forest and his doubts about the top brass of Brighton City, Arthur couldn't wait to seize those people.

He asked the other party what he was thinking. He looked at the other party skillfully lifting the man up and walking towards the other direction of the alley. At this time, no outsider entered the alley. This was really incredible.

"I only saw him once, but I guess it's the former member of the law enforcement team and now the black boxer, Selfindo, nicknamed the Hungry Tiger."

"Isn't this kind of person a soldier?"

"As far as I know, he participated in the battle with the orcs some time ago. He was probably injured, but his skills are still there. The question now is, leader, should we follow up or pretend we didn't see anything? I don't know," John

Si pointed with his chin at the invisible soldier in the distance. He needed to know what Arthur's decision was. The leader of the Hermitage was now Arthur, and Johns would only obey if he actually made a decision.

"Follow me, I want to see what they want to do." Arthur took the lead and prepared to take action. Suddenly, a figure wrapped in a brown coat fell from the sky and stood in front of Arthur and Johns, splashing snow dust all over the ground.

Johns was also knocked back two steps by the air wave. Arthur, who was closer to the figure and reacted very quickly, stabbed the opponent's head with a straight fist with elemental power. It was bound to knock down this unknown person with one blow.

When his fist was about to contact the opponent's hooded head, Arthur stopped punching and asked in a deep voice: "There is no killing intention, do I know you?"

"Why are you chasing those soldiers?" The voice under the hood turned out to be a female voice. Arthur was sure that he had never heard such a voice before. So was she a stranger?

"Miss, we are not taught to use interrogative sentences in school." The silent anger in Arthur's tone was felt even by Johns who was sitting in the snow in pain. If this young lady did not tell her identity again,

, Arthur's fist with thunder elemental power was about to hit the back of her head. Arthur, who had been annoyed by the so-called aristocratic power, had veins on his right fist. He urgently needed to vent his anger. But for some reason, John

Si always felt that the young lady's back looked familiar.

Ignoring Arthur's threat, the woman said softly: "You should go back. Otherwise, you will also be in danger."

"What if I say no?" Arthur was ready to fight. No matter what the other party's purpose was, Arthur wanted to understand what was going on with this sudden kidnapping case. At this moment, even if this woman was related to this matter

It wasn't big, but it was enough to make Arthur fearful of such a person who suddenly appeared and told them to go back.

"If you insist on going to see what's going on, I suggest you prepare at home these days, because you are also on the list."

"List? What list?" Arthur still wanted to ask. The woman pushed the approaching Arthur out of the alley and knocked down a passing woman. After Arthur pulled the woman up apologetically, the woman had disappeared from his eyes.

Even the four soldiers at the other end of the alley hugged black sacks and disappeared into the crowd. They were not questioned by any law enforcement team or inspected by the arbitration office. They just tied up a citizen and walked through the streets of Brighton City.

"Asshole..." Arthur clenched his fist, and the Hebrew ring on his right hand also exuded a faint brilliance. Even the passers-by passing by Arthur felt bad. Arthur, who could control the elemental power well, was in an angry situation.

The lower elemental power was a bit out of control, which would easily attract the attention of the arbitration office. "Arthur!" Johns hurriedly ran out of the alley and dragged Arthur from the avenue to the West District, trying to take advantage of the fact that no one was noticing.

Arthur leaves here before becoming a wizard.

...

Damn it. Arthur, who was pulled back by Johns, punched the sandbag placed in the basement of the mansion. It wasn't until he punched through the sandbag that Arthur regained his composure. Watching the white sand flowing down from his fingers, he turned to face

Elusi and Johns, who were worried about him behind him, said: "Don't worry, I'm just angry. Those big shots are too blatant."

"This is today's society. Those so-called 'laws' only target the weak, and we are the weak. That's why I asked you many times if you really want to build a school. I can imagine that we will be harassed by law enforcement teams, arbitration offices, and even

What is the purpose of the parliament... And neither we humans nor dwarves and elves can avoid this problem. The children of politicians are still politicians, the children of soldiers are still soldiers, basically all races are like this. All races

It's so dark." Johns used his hat to pat the dust on his trouser legs. He is the wizard in the Hermitage who has the most contact with the outside world. Although he is weak, he has full social experience. He is also the person who can best understand the darkness of this era.

.

"If possible, I will definitely make wizards independent from all races, follow the laws jointly formulated by wizards, and enjoy the unique rights of wizards..." Arthur held the white sand and waved it casually: "Johns, what do you think?

What is the list that the woman is talking about? She seems to know something, can you know her identity?"

"I will check her identity, but about the list she mentioned, I may have a rough idea of ​​what's going on..." Mentioning this matter, Johns' expression became serious, and he talked to the confused Ellu on the side.

Silk formed a contrast. "Leader, during the time when you were comatose, a similar disappearance case occurred in Brighton City, but it was only active for half a month before it was concealed. However, the missing persons were homeless people and beggars.

, because I didn’t have many informants involved, so I didn’t know much, except that at that time, a list of twenty homeless people and beggars was leaked from the hands of the thief in charge of the North District to the Brighton City black market.

"

List? Arthur turned back and continued to wait for Johns to continue. He noticed a lot of sweat dripping from Johns' forehead.

"I didn't see all of that list, but I heard that only the names of the last four people on it were not crossed out by the red line. I didn't see those people in Brighton City later. I speculated that they should have participated after being kidnapped.

Those perverted death games designed by nobles, just like those played in drama clubs. Arthur, I guess this time they are targeting people like you and Selfendo the Hungry Tiger, that is to say,

Your old friends, the murderer Jace and Nighthawk, were most likely kidnapped and taken away to participate in the nobles' games..."

"Damn it!" Arthur's left eye flashed with electricity: "What on earth do they want to do!"
