The 31st Piece Turns the Tables

Chapter 556

Episode 556

“Can you eat it?”

“no.”

“If it doesn’t work, there’s nothing we can do.”

The four sentries gathered together and whispered.

“Actually, isn’t it okay to eat it?”

“I told you that if you eat anything, Smart will make it impossible for you to eat anything!”

“I’m so scared... then it won’t work.”

“But did you come on foot? “You said you were talking about an ogre.”

The ogres calmly approached again, as if they had never realized that their voices were louder than the sound of thunder.

“Are you fooling us?”

“...cheating?”

“Did you meet some bad guys?”

“ah.”

It refers to the army of death.

Kang Seol also once encountered the dead who broke away from their army and attacked life at will.

Even though I made it so that I could never stand up again.

“We met.”

“Uh... I met you. Then it really came from outside....”

The ogre said while looking around.

“Where are you from?”

“Cannes.”

“lie! The Khan guys are coming on horseback. And a lot of them come.”

“I came alone.”

“That’s confident... Then is it true?...”

“It’s true. “Let me in.”

The ogre, who was scratching his side, answered.

“I get it. But if you know how to speak ogre, you should tell them in advance. “Smartie said so.”

“Yes, as much as you want.”

Thump thump!

The ogre walked a little away and stamped his foot.

Then, as if he felt a vibration, something came out of the ground.

A beast that looked similar to a giant mole or pangolin stuck its head out.

“Go tell it! “I’m going to talk about it!”

This unusual beast copied the ogre’s words exactly.

“I’m going to talk!”

After doing this, he looked at the ogre with bright eyes.

Scrunchy...

The ogre took out a round piece of meat from the leather pouch on his belt and stuffed it into the beast’s mouth.

“good!”

Pududududududu...

The beast dug into the ground and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

“... that’s interesting.”

“Do you need a bag?”

“bag?”

“Tymolon is coming now. “It will go quickly.”

“... ah.”

Kangseol shook her head, recalling the memory of being transported in a wooden prison similar to the fish trap carried by the bonefish.

“No, I’ll just stay on your shoulder.”

“You might fall.”

“huh.”

Clap...

The ogre lifted Snowfall onto his shoulder and started running.

Huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I had the illusion that the scenery was folding at an incredible speed. At this speed, we will soon reach the capital of Tymolon on the map.

Snowfall was lost in thought on the ogre’s shoulder.

The reason he was lost in thought was because of the armor the guards wore and the information transmission system.

At best, they use animals to spread news a little faster, but this is a behavior that has not been seen in previous ogres.

I was able to nod my head up to this point, but I couldn’t easily take my eyes off the armor they were wearing.

‘It’s quite sophisticated. Did the ogre have this kind of skill?’

They were limited to covering only important parts with leaves or covering their bodies with the skins of animals they hunted.

It is shocking that such natives appear at some point armed with iron weapons.

It was not a solid armor full of impurities, but surprisingly, it was an armor with well-crafted curves and decorations.

‘...there is something.’

A change occurred.

They may have entered a new era.

When the ogres were forced to return to Trium or wander after the Era War, they succeeded in absorbing the human kingdom that collapsed due to the disaster northeast of Pandea without any damage.

At the time, the surrounding countries were so confused by the incoming ogres that they missed the time to respond, but this actually prevented their destruction.

In the first place, they were at the level of a small kingdom’s colony and were in the midst of resolving a disaster there, so it was absurd to stop a large ogre army that had attacked in that situation.

They just watched the ogres settle in and took no action.

That was all that was known to the public, and after that, information about these small kingdoms was cut off. This is because all trade routes to them were blocked.

Coincidentally, the new ogre kingdom of Tymolon, where the ogres are located, was established on the route where the ogres were expanding to the continent.

Hu Woo Woong ...

Hu Woo Woo Woo Woong ...

Ogger pushes the scenery back.

“What’s your name?”

The ogre answered Snowfall’s question.

“New eggs.”

“Three pills?”

“New eggs. “The eggs are good and delicious.”

“Okay, three pills.”

“It’s a bird egg.”

“It’s strict, but it’s easier to call it three pills.”

“good! I’ll allow it. Instead, if you find a new egg, bring it to me and I will buy it for you at a good price!”

Kangseol was shocked when he heard Saeal’s answer.

And standing on top of it.

Cluck...

“Come here, walk straight!”

Slaves with dull eyes.

A slave dealer with their necks tied with iron restraints passed by Kang Seol.

They were all human.

When the snowfall stopped, the rotten butt also stopped. She understood Jiang Seol’s reaction and watched without speaking.

“It’s brand new.”

“Where are you from?”

“A wanderer from the Federation. “There’s nothing to prove.”

“Hmm...”

The person talking to the slave trader is also human.

Humans checked the condition of the slaves.

“My eyes are tired. “I can’t hit you well.”

“I understand that much, so please coax me a bit. huh?”

“Hmm...”

The person who received the slave from the slaver said to the ogre sitting on the ornate chair.

“They are wanderers from the Federation.”

“It’s not that great....”

“But since we’ve had good deals so far, I wonder if you can understand this much?”

“Should I understand?”

“Usually in cases like this, we have to clear the debt so that we have a reason to bring good products to us later.”

“Aren’t you fooling me?”

“If I’m lying, just kill me.”

“I’m not eating you. “Smartie said not to eat humans.”

“Then please believe me.”

“I believe, Sarah.”

The language they shared was not a human language. It was the language of the ogres.

“Three!”

Kang Seol turned his head in the direction where the loud noise came from. Two ogres were arguing while holding a gold nugget of a certain size.

“I gave you two!”

“no! I gave him three. “Look!”

“Three?”

“Three!”

“Take it! “I was mistaken!”

An ogre disappears carrying a leather sack.

This is civilization.

A change I thought I would never face.

strange.

All of this.

And it was uncomfortable.

The human form that permeated the ogres.

“Does Tymolon allow slaves?”

“Slaves are definitely disappearing from Pandea. Tymolon allows this. “There is no choice if we are to have the level of labor that the kingdom needs in the first place.”

“It’s called labor...”

“Ogres can move huge stones, but they can’t carve them. “They can melt iron, but their hands are too big and clunky to forge armor for them.”

“Then wouldn’t it be okay to pay money and hire someone?”

“Unless you’ve forgotten, this is ogre country.”

“... I see.”

“No matter how much money is given, very few people will set foot in a country where ogres who prey on humans live. “It would be far short of the level of labor the king wants.”

“Why do we need that much labor?”

“A society without labor is a society ruled by beasts, and it is a society of ogres of the past. “When they were hungry, they went hunting, they didn’t store food, they didn’t wait for tomorrow.”

Rotten Butt took a moment to catch his breath and then continued.

“Tymolon... is going our own way. “We are preparing for tomorrow.”

It was only then that Kang Seol realized the uncomfortable feeling rising inside her.

An ogre is imitating a human.

And it is so plausible and persuasive that it is confusing as to what kind of response to give.

The rotten ass grinned.

“I’m sure some people don’t like that.”

Kang Seol didn’t bother to reply to her words. He will learn everything from those he meets in the future, so as not to misjudge.

In order not to love them carelessly or hate them carelessly.

He was silent.

And the place we finally arrived with our rotten ass was a huge outdoor structure.

Kang Seol has seen a building of similar scale before.

“...Arena?”

From this point on, many slaves followed around Kang Seol. After seeing their faces, Kang Seol closed his eyes for a moment.

Because there was no sign that they were ashamed of their actions or that they could not accept them.

The humans of Tymolon have already completely accepted this situation.

And finally, after a long time after the war of the times, Snowfall met his helper.

An ogre wearing richly embroidered long robes was sitting in a position clearly overlooking the arena. Next to him is a small chair that is comparable to the one he was sitting on. It is the perfect size for a human to sit on.

Ttukduk made eye contact with Kang Seol.

“Please sit down.”

Kang Seol recalled the last sight of Ddeok-i in Wing Canyon.

He is dangerous.

A knife that falls like a knife with the positions of the blade and handle reversed.

Is what you will receive this time a blade or a handle?

Whioooo...

Kangseol sat down, letting out all the energy he had been suppressing.

He did not look at Smart, but looked at the arena.

Whoops...

gladiators appeared on both sides of the arena.

On one side is an ogre wearing armor.

The other was a similarly armed human.

It is a blade.

I got closer to the blade.

I might have to break it eventually.
