-Ginal Perspective-.

I stare silently at the two contracts in front of me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can see that Gullit, next to me, is also speechless.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He is speechless. That's amazing."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I look at Ega and Ranj.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They too look at me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We stare at each other.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess so.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Lanzi laughs amusedly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I sigh at that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm relieved that we're not enemies of the druids, but .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We've met you guys once, right?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Gullit's words remind me of two people I met in church over a decade ago.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They looked a little different than they do now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Especially their hair color was different.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Both of them had dark brown hair before, but now they are both a subdued orange.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I felt something strange because of the different hair color, I guess.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I remembered them talking with church officials in a friendly manner, so I was quite alarmed when I saw them with the druid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I didn't expect to be bound by such a contract 《thing》.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sorry, I don't remember you guys."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Lanzi agrees with Ega's words, "Me too.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well, it was just a moment, that's for sure.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And we remember Ega and the others because we were checking on every single person who had contact with church officials, so it must have been imprinted on our memories, even if only for a moment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Where did the ginals see us?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ega looked at us curiously.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ega looks at us curiously, "When we were checking for anyone in contact with church officials in King's Landing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Feiche and Zinal nodded at Gullit's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Even if you're careful, there's still a limit.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ranj speaks with a small cough.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ega also laughs and says, "It can't be helped.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Can I ask you something?　What do you mean to the church?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

One unpleasant answer comes to mind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The darkness of the church.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The biggest sin of the church, which I have been exploring for a long time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Maybe they are .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We're assassins tied to the church."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I felt my heart skip a beat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I knew what to expect.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I met them at the church, they looked like the dead.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They were listless and vacant.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was surprised to see them today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They were so different from when I saw them before.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But I knew that an assassin changes himself to suit the target in order to get into the target's bosom.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's what I thought.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But as far as the contract is concerned, I guess this is the real two.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Huh?　That doesn't surprise me. Did you expect that?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ega says a little disappointed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Gullit chuckles at that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What about the druid?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

How could I not know?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Well, I don't know.　They don't ask us anything, so we don't tell them either. But they must feel something. Because when we signed the contract, he looked at the contents and for a moment ...... just a moment, his face contorted."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The druid would be too kind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can't believe I'm taking on two such complicated people.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy hasn't noticed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Or rather, there's no way the druid would let her notice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Are there other assassins out there?　Oh, sorry. You don't have to tell me. I'm pretty sure you're bound by contract and can't talk, right?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, I can tell you. There are 14 assassins in total. Well, if all of them are still alive. I think there are six who are still alive.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Why can you talk?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The assassin we caught before lost his voice just by saying the name of the church.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Therefore, we could not interrogate him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I thought about writing, but I couldn't touch him because I didn't know what kind of contract had been made.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

While I was wondering in this way, he disappeared.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It was determined that perhaps other assassins had sneaked in and taken him away.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Perhaps they had already been eliminated.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Why are you telling me this?　Do you guys have that much credibility?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They start laughing at my words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They don't trust anyone, do they?　They're getting more and more distrustful even of people from their own church.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ega nodded repeatedly as Lanzi spoke.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Then why?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'It's because of the deal we made with the druids. Do you know how ...... we are made?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'No, I'm just told that children are gathered and chosen from among them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Not exactly. The kids are kidnapped with skills that are useful for assassination type work, and they are unilaterally signed to a slave contract on the same day. The next day, they start training without knowing what to expect. If they disobey, they are chastised until the very last minute, though they are not killed. No one wants to be in pain, so they learn the art of killing with a desperate will. And when they have mastered the skills, they are made to kill each other with the children they have learned with. This is where their hearts break and they feel nothing. If you survive, you will be an assassin who will never defy the church. And there's also the binding of the slave contract."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

...... I see."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ega's bitterness rises as he speaks without hesitation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Kill people as ordered,....... Maybe when I met the druid, I was at my limit and so was Ranj. I got orders to kill even young children, and I carried them out and ...... took a job at the Adventurers Guild for a change, and the druid came. The job ended quickly and all I got was resentment. So I ran away and drank and drank and found myself tangled up with a nobleman. That's when I thought, "I can't die, but I can't be killed. I couldn't die, but I could be killed. But the druid saved us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I hated the druid who saved us. Why did he save us?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Lunge chuckles.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said, 'You want to live, but you don't want to die. For a moment I didn't know what he said, and Ega was stunned. But their own hands were unconsciously gripping their weapons. I am sure that the moment the nobleman said something, we would have killed him. I don't want to die,' that's what we really wanted. We went through all that hell to not die. Well, that hell isn't going to end anytime soon."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ega's eyes shade for a moment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But it is only for a moment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Soon, they return to normal and smile.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I knew if they found out I had a problem with the nobles, they would order me to kill both the nobles and the druids. I didn't care about the nobles, but I really didn't want to lay a hand on the druid at that time. So I decided to sign a contract. The druid seems to be saying it was the power of the drink, but for us it was a gamble."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ega holds one of the contracts he signed with the druid and looks happy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The contract is the "contract of life," which is said to be never seen nowadays.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It is a contract in which one gives one's life to the other party.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If the druid breaks the contract because he does not want Ega and Ranzi, they will die immediately.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

A contract that permits the unilateral use of power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The written content is also terrible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If Ega and Lanzi even think of harming the druid in any way, they will both die.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ranzi also shows another contract.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

This is also a "contract of life," but it is slightly different from Ega's contract.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It stipulates that if anyone orders the druid to be killed, he or she will be killed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know why this item is included only in Ranzi's contract, but it is quite strange.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's a pretty strange thing to be ordered to kill, for example.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Because my skills would come in handy."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ranj says, looking at me, as if the question was on his face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

One of my skills is that I can do certain things in exchange for my life. With that, I can kill you for sure."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ranj's words remind me of several skills.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

All of them were quite rare skills and must have required care in how they were handled.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Because they are skills to curse your opponent with your life.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Contracts are biased toward the more sanctioned, apparently. The binding of the slave contract has been loosened since this contract for life was signed. There are still some restrictions, to be sure. Like not being able to die on your own. But I can now act against orders."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was surprised by Lanzi's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I didn't know there was such an effect.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well, no one would make a contract for life on top of a slave contract, so it's not surprising that I didn't know about it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'The church doesn't know, does it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Oh, they don't even suspect it. They don't even suspect it, because they assume that because they have a slave contract, they will never be able to fight back. Well, I've been acting to make them believe that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ega chuckles at Lanzi's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ega's eyes widened as he said, "All those assassin skills they've been knocking into us have come in handy, haven't they?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Indeed."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I watched with an indescribable feeling as Lanzi laughed at Ega's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can't think of anything to say.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com
