Damned 13th Regression – 111

<Appointment of Rosario>
* * * * *
“Brother. “First let me apologize for what happened to Liang Xian.”
Ben-Hur a large man bowed.
He made an excuse with a slightly embarrassed expression.
“They say she wasn’t the type of person to be like that. “I’m sorry about the collision.”
The final attack on the Demon King.
Zhou Gonghyuk and Liang Xian were on the same side and fought to the death.
In the process Liang Xian seemed to have unilaterally attacked first so the Company’s ambassador Ben Hur came to visit.
“He returned to Deus on his own accord and went into seclusion. What on earth are you thinking! “I’m so embarrassed!”
“Mr. Zehman. Don’t be too angry. “Wasn’t he always an unpredictable person?”
Marcus the Rosario horseman consoled Zehman who seemed like a big deal.
Three ambassadors from the Company.
It was the 13th seat of ‘Mother’ Christina’s elite Rosario.
“No if you are called Chief Master Rosario you should act accordingly!”
Zehman a legalistic rabbi and in charge of legal affairs at Deus grumbled.
“I feel like I want to grab my hair and apologize in front of you right now! “There’s no such thing as a proper Rosario guy!”
“Now calm down…”
“This is what calms you down! “Why did Christina appoint such a non-religious person as chief!”
Marcus placed a hand on his furious shoulder.
“Zehman. “I know you’re angry.”
“Please don’t discuss your mother carelessly in a situation like this.”
The voices quieted down as Marcus and Ben-Hur’s eyes became sharper.
Gonghyeok laughed inwardly at the well-matched skit.
The two who stopped Zehman were famous loyalists within Deus.
“Hey I’m sorry the story got diverted. Zehman said he really wanted to apologize to you in person.”

“Hmm.”
The real Zechman cleared his throat.
And then he looked at Joo Gong-hyeok seriously.
“That’s not all. “I wanted to see with my own eyes the new person coming to Rosario.”
“Me too.”
Marcus nodded in agreement.
Ben-Hur looked around the audience for a moment and took out the box he had prepared.
“So this is the main point.”
Inside the box were two rosaries.
The 13 different gems symbolized the Rosario region and the 13 cities within Wawel.
“That’s good stuff.”
I held up the rosary with admiration as if it were something I had never seen before.
[Joo Gong-hyeok’s 11-stone Rosary (A++)]
– Joo Gong-hyeok’s name is engraved on the rosary.
– Slightly increases resistance to 13 types of magic.
– When you break the rosary the gate opens with the person wearing the rosary closest to you.
[Hayeon City’s 12 Stone Rosary (A++)]
– Hayeonsi’s name on the rosary…
“Say it bluntly. “I would like to officially accept you and her as members of Rosario.”
Ben-Hur and the other two people’s eyes were focused on Joo Gong-hyeok.
Gonghyuk rolled the rosary and opened his mouth.
“All right. “Let me take charge of it right away.”
When they did so willingly there was a quick exchange of glances between the three.
‘It’s too much of a position for me.’
‘I belong to another city?’
There is no need to complicate the story with this answer.
I came here with the intention of taking it all in because there is a lot more work to be done.
I thought I’d give it a try since it was too much but there’s no need to complicate the story by leaving it out.
Because there is more work to be done.
“Hehehe! That’s really cool. “Now that two seats are filled is there only one seat left?”
“I don’t know when the 10 seats will be filled.”
That position will never be filled.
Because before that happens everyone will die.
Originally savior Julia should have taken her place.
‘I killed him with my own hands on the second floor.’
It was Yulia who gave me the brainwashing skill that came in handy.
Marcus woke up with a smile on his face.

“Then when you enter Rosario you will have to swear a few oaths.”
He spoke gently as he held up his rosary.
“Because this is a place like this we will proceed briefly and informally.”
The former Catholic bishop closed his eyes and created a plausible atmosphere.
“Brother as members of the Rosario will you swear to cherish one another and not betray one another?”
“yes.”
As soon as I could answer I heard a warning message from GM.
[Stealth skill ‘Don’t let your left hand know what your right hand did.’ Confirm use.]
[User Marcus]
[It cannot be identified due to the use of avatars due to hidden and detection skills.]
Marcus was using an avatar without Joo Gong-hyuk’s knowledge.
“Do you pledge to join your mother Christina C. Mahadeva in slaying the demon lord?”
“yes.”
The second question followed.
Gonghyuk answered the question obediently.
Marcus’s ability was the ability to detect lies.
Now Marcus can see YES and NO floating on Joo Gong-hyeok’s head.
“This is my final oath.”
He took a moment to catch his breath and opened his mouth.
“Will you swear that you will never make a pact with the devil from past to future?”
Ben-Hur and Zehman’s calm eyes were filled with keenness.
All three questions were important.
What is their loyalty to their mother whether they will betray them what is their relationship with the devil who might betray them?
The plan was to decide Joo Gong-hyeok’s fate based on the results of this confirmation.
Gonghyeok smiled softly as his eyes looked like blades disguised as softness.
“I swear. How many contractors have I killed? “It’s absurd to make a contract with the devil.”
YES and NO.
What did it say?
Marcus nodded and looked back.
The other two people looked closely at Marcus’ face and laughed heartily.
“sibling! “Welcome to Rosario!”
“This is it. “I need to quickly go find the child who is wondering if it’s Hayeonsi.”
A pleasant conversation continued in the drawing room.
And 20 minutes later.
“Can I come and see the Company branch for a moment? “It’s not enough but I think I’ll be the next branch president.”
“I need to go to the bathroom for a moment too.”
Marcus and Ben-Hur. Two people stood up.
“If it’s a branch would you like me to guide you? “You probably aren’t used to it yet.”
“Huh where are you going to leave? “You should study Torah (Jewish scripture) more with me!”
Zehman grabbed Gonghyeok and spoke at once.
“Reading the Torah and worshiping fills you with spiritual energy. Even during the subprime mortgage crisis in the past Israel was able to overcome the economic crisis because Haredis diligently read the Torah…”
Ben-Hur smiled bitterly.
“It seems like Zehman has a lot to talk about with his brother.”
“I’ll see you in a bit.”
The two people left the room leaving Zehman and Gonghyeok talking passionately.
Ben-Hur asked as he closed the door.
“What was his doctor like?”
“The vows were all ‘YES’.”
It meant that there was no lie in the oath.
He stroked his beard.
“I see. I’ll go back in a little while. “You will continue to be at the Company so I hope that you and your brother will resolve the matter wisely.”
“All right.”
Marcus walked down the hallway leaving Ben-Hur behind as he entered the bathroom.
He thought as he walked down the hallway.
‘The number of people has increased again.’
One by one the seats at Rosario were filled.
At first I thought they were people who would help their mother’s feat.
But now my thoughts have changed.
‘No one can help you mother.’
The same goes for the Asians this time.
He was closer to trash than anyone he knew.
Marcus was walking down the hallway lost in thought when he saw a familiar man in his field of vision.
Gonghyeok Joo an Asian man in the room spoke up.
“Why did you answer Ben-Hur backwards?”
Gonghyeok Joo the man leaning in the hallway asked with a smile.
“I said ‘no’ to everything in my mind.”
“Is the one in the room an alter ego and is this the real one?”
Marcus’s once sad expression turned cold.
“Where did you hear about my abilities? “Why did you come to see me like this?”
“I came here because I like your abilities.”
“Do you like my abilities?”
“Because we communicate well. No matter what I say there’s no need to doubt my true intentions and there’s no need to waste time trying to figure things out.”
“What are you talking about?”
“This is what it sounds like.”
Gonghyuk lightly shrugged his shoulders.
“I will find Liang Xian and kill him.”
“If it’s Liang Xian…”
“yes. The first seat of Rosario. “I want to kill him as quickly as possible so I’d like some help.”
The avatar ‘Serpent of Eden’ wrapped around Marcus’ shoulders.
“Just 10 minutes ago we all swore to be brothers.”
The vertically split reptilian eyes looked at Gonghyuk as if they were looking right through him.
It was visible in Marcus’ eyes.
The word ‘YES’ floats above Gonghyuk’s head.
“I’m serious.”
“Shall we talk as we go?”
Two men walked coolly through the hallway of the company’s headquarters.
Marcus couldn’t read any emotion on his face as if he was wearing a mask.
“Why are you trying to kill her?”
“I can’t tell you in detail. “But if you don’t kill them they won’t be satisfied.”
“Is it because she is fake?”
A strange smile appeared on Gonghyeok’s lips.
It’s my first time. Anyone who has even vaguely noticed the existence of ‘future people’.
“Since when did you know it was fake?”
The courtesy disappeared from Gonghyeok’s tone.
“A month ago. “It’s easy to see through once you have doubted that ability is ability.”
Marcus’ snake looked at Joo Gong-hyeok and flicked its tongue.
“Are you fake too?”
“well. “How does it look to you?”
“…….”
“Now then let’s make a deal.”
Gonghyuk put his clasped hands behind his head.
“I want to eliminate a significant number of Rosarios including Liang Xian.”
Yes.
“I don’t know what will happen in the future but if we have the same goals I would like to work together.”
Yes.
“If things go well I’ll hand over the reward. I know about the 40th floor reward. “If you hear it you’ll be so shocked that you’ll turn over.”
Yes.
The avatar ‘Serpent of Eden’ was unanimously judged to be true.
Marcus opened his mouth quietly.
“I’d like to give you some advice.”
“Which one?”
“Rosario’s oath in the reception room. One was ‘YES’.”
The two people’s eyes met for the first time.
“I don’t know where you know my abilities or what they are but don’t be cocky. “Are you also a human being who cannot face your inner self?”
“I see.”
“Humans who face that. Become a hero.”
Marcus stopped at the end of the hallway.
“Just like my mother.”
“Mr. Marcus.”
“If you’re going to say something stupid get out of there.”
“……”
I’m tired of the same old hero theory.
Marcus betrayed his mother to the point where he was sick of giving rude lectures to others.
13 out of 13 times.
Thus the name ‘Rosario Serpent’ was given.
Marcus spoke again.
“Liang Xian will look at the situation and guide you in that direction. “We’ll talk about the rest later.”
“thank you.”
“There is nothing to be thankful for.”
Cold eyes looked straight at Gonghyuk.
“I was just looking for trash like you.”
“I think it’s fortunate that there is a trash person in Rosario who can communicate with me.”
“It’s fake but she’s strong.”
“Even the weakest Liang Xien was scarier than the current Liang Xien.”
Marcus snorted softly and left the headquarters building.
Gonghyuk waved him off and took out a pipe from his pocket.
As I poured tobacco into my pipe I thought of my first Liang Hsien.
‘You have no talent.’
This was what Liang Xian said three days after teaching Gonghyeok.
‘At least memory and repetition mastery are useful. If you keep practicing you might even be able to master the martial arts.’
She puffed out smoke in her characteristic gombang manner.
‘Because there is no need for everyone to pursue the ultimate in nothingness. It wouldn’t be a bad thing if it was honed in practice and played its part as a life-saving tool.’
Gonghyeok who became her student only through Christina’s connections asked with envy.
‘Master. ‘How can I become strong like you Master?’
‘well. ‘About 100 years?’
ah. This is a story that is impossible in life.
I thought so at the time.
“Master. And 300 years have passed.”
I was told I had no talent so I tried and tried again.
In this way after 100 years the Yang Gao Acting Drama reached her Qixal Festival.
And one more life.
She said the fifth.
‘You have become complacent without changing.’
It was after that that I started learning the martial arts of the beast people to advance further.
She had a lot of help.
From martial arts to mindset.
I wouldn’t have come this far if I hadn’t had a teacher named Liang Xian.
‘Especially in the eighth one.’
Eighth life.
Joo Gong-hyeok left everything and ran away.
If someone sees his life he won’t be able to wake up anyway. As if I thought at least once that I could just give up everything and live the rest of my life the way I want before I die.
Faced with insurmountable despair he could no longer move forward.
