Chapter 347: The clever old man
Vane immediately froze as he looked at Trody and couldn’t understand how he uncovered his disguise.
’How the fuck did he even find out that he is not the real Morin ? He is not even that strong then how ?’ Leon thought as he pulled out the Nyxter from his pocket.
"You can also come out of the room, I can sense you as well." Trody spoke as he talked to Leon.
*Click*
Leon walked out of the room with a neutral expression on his face and looked at Trody.
"So... I am assuming my friend Morin is not alive anymore and this guy works for you." Trody asked as he took a sip of the alcohol and looked at Leon.
"Both of your assumptions are right. Now, how about you tell me why a weak guy like you can sense my presence and tell that he is not the real Morin ?" Leon asked with a curious expression.
"My right eye... It’s a blessed artifact. My father got it from a dungeon now instead of using it on his own, that bastard pulled my out and fitted this.
You can see how it’s a little shiny than the other one." Trody spoke with a calm expression as he pointed towards his left eye.
Without wasting another second, Leon used his skill on his eye.
<Inspect>
[Name: Three eyed raven’s Eye]
[Rank: C]
[Description: A very special artifact that can only be obtained after slaying the boss named {Three eyed raven} that is found in an A-ranked dungeon’s most bottom floor. Dropping chances of this artifact are 1-3% only.
Once planted inside someone’s eye socket, this eye will be activated and removal of the eye, will destroy it immediately. The user can see past illusions, walls, spells and lies.]
"That’s an interesting eye to have... Not only past illusions but you can also see through walls, spells and lies as well." Leonn spoke with a smile.
"You have excellent eyes as well I guess, mister ?" Trody asked with a smile.
"The name is Leon Luster." Leon replied with a neutral expression.
"Ah... Nice to meet you mister Luster. I am surprised that you made it back from that floor underneath." Trody spoke as he stood up, walked upto Leon and raised his hand for a handshake.
Leon grabbed his hand and shaked while keeping his guard up.
"So many defensive and offensive spells ready to launch if I did something wrong. Don’t worry, I am powerless other than my eye, Mr. Luster. Merely an observer." Trody replied with a neutral expression.
"So... Now that you know I have killed your bestfriend, what are you going to do ?" Leon asked with a smile.
"Well, first of all... He wasn’t my bestfriend, someone I worked with. Second of all, I am pretty sure you had a very good reason to kill him... Did he try to throw on the stairs of the floor underneath ?" Trody asked.
"That’s correct, but I have this trait that I crawl out of traps and then I kill those who betrayed me." Leon replied with a smile.
"Eh... I told him not to do that but he doesn’t listen to me. He did this with every newcomer who didn’t bend to his will." Trody spoke with a neutral expression.
"You didn’t try to stop him ?" Leon asked.
"He is too powerful and he always threatened to wipe out all the humans from this kingdom, if I ever revealed his secret to anyone." Trody replied.
"Well, looks like he got wiped first. Now, it’s upto you... What are you going to do ?" Leon asked with a smile.
"Since it’s your game, why don’t you tell me the rules first and I will keep in mind to not break them." Trody replied with a smile.
"You are one clever old man, huh ?"
"It’s something I have learned while observing the world but I still can’t understand... How did you came back from the stairs, no one can use magic on those stairs." Trody asked with a curious expression.
"Don’t worry about that... Since Morin is no longer alive you will be the king of this kingdom. Do whatever you want, I don’t really care but I have some girls in my eyes that I want to fuck before I leave.
So you will be sending them to my room. You understand ?" Leon asked with a smile.
"As you wish, Sir. So... Should I spread the news that my dear elf friend has died ?" Trody asked with a smile.
"You are one smart old man really, but I don’t have a body to give you. You will need to take care of that yourself." Leon replied with a neutral expression.
"Don’t worry, we bury bodies in boxes anyway. I will get some of my men to bring a big wooden box." Trody replied.
’Hmm... This guy is very clever. He knows that he can’t win in a fight against me that’s why he decided to join me and since he will now get the full control over this kingdom, that’s two birds with one stone.’ Leon thought as a smile appeared over his face.
"Do whatever you want but remember... Betraying me will get you in a box, Trody Tanner." Leon spoke with a serious expression as he looked directly into Trody’s eyes.
"I will not disappoint you, Sir. We are both humans after all, why would I betray you when you are giving me the control of this kingdom in return ?" Trody replied with a smile.
"Good, Good. You can leave now." Leon ordered with a neutral expression.
"Yes, Sir." Trody spoke as he started walking towards the exit door but he stopped and turned around.
"Hmm...?" Leon looked at him with a confused expression.
"Thank you Mr. Leon... I was waiting for someone like you to come for a long time." Trody spoke as he opened the gate and exited the house immediately.
"Smart guy." Leon replied with a smile.
"Master...?" Suddenly Dusk’s voice came from behind.
"Hmm...?" Leon turned around and noticed that dusk was awake and he was sitting near the alcohol counter in his cat form.
"Dusk... You are up, good good. Let’s go and have a talk with that world tree, I have some questions that you will be asking him." Leon ordered.
"As you command master."
<Summoner’s Pocket>
As soon as Leon used this skill, the Malebolge disappeared instantly.
’Litreally carrying thirteen psychotic motherfuckers in a pocket.’ Leon thought as a smile appeared over his face.
After this both of them jumped out from the house’s back window and started walking towards the Kingdom’s exit gate.
"Master... If you don’t mind, can I ask you something ?" Dusk spoke in a curious tone.
"Shoot." Leon replied with a smile.
"Can you tell me what happened inside that hot chamber and how you made an SS-rank monster your friend ?" Dusk asked.
"Hmm... Well, sure since we are walking anyway. So what happened was..."
