I Am the Madman of This Family

Episode 11. All transactions are prepaid (1)

At the sudden appearance of Tarragon, Vulcanus threatened.

“Tarragon! I should have made it clear Don’t come into the warehouse on your own!”

Tarragon, who had a criminal record, was already captured by Vulcanus.

“hmm? Wait a minute, things are weird. Did you have a nap?”

Vulcan’s brow narrowed.

Tarragon’s face was difficult to see because of the shadow of the lantern. The moment Vulcanus took a step closer to take a closer look.

said Keter, stepping forward.

“Dwarf inspiration. He tasted it.”

“It tastes good… Huh?”

Vulcanus was frightened.

As Tarragon approached, his face was revealed. The whites of the eyes disappeared, and the pupils were all black. The twitching of the corners of the mouth was not normal for anyone to see.

Vulcan sighed.

“amaranth! Amaranth has summoned Tarragon!”

“Have you seen such a foolish bastard? Cheating in front of my eyes?”

slap! slap!

Keter slapped my right hand like a slap. Then Amaranth shuddered greatly as if in agony.

Vulcan was no longer surprised by Kether’s eccentricities.

“Are you Keter? Give me the amaranth.”

When Tarragon said with a sour face, Keter took a leisurely look at Tarragon.

he’s just that kind of guy nothing less, nothing more. If you saw him in a liqueur, you wouldn’t even pay attention to him.

However, the fact that he was the fourth of a prestigious family and that he seemed easy to pamper piqued interest.

A picture was already drawn to use this guy as an excuse to become the legitimate owner of Amaranth.

‘It’s worth paying for baring your teeth in front of me.’

Keter held out the amaranth-filled right hand to Tarragon.

Tarragon, unaware of Keter’s intentions, took it as a sign to take it and said with a smile.

“You have eyes. If you hand over the amaranth to me, I will tell my father and brothers well.”

Vulcan glared at Keter, but Keter silently pushed Vulcan back with her left hand.

“amaranth. As long as you have this… … !”

Tarragon reached for Keter’s right hand. The moment Amaranth swayed away from Keter’s right hand—

Remembrance.

Kether vigorously raised the middle finger of her right hand.

“… … ?!”

f*ck!

Keter hit Tarragon’s forehead with his middle finger.

“Keah!”

Tarragon sits down and grabs his forehead like a man hit by a hammer after a bad night’s sleep.

Afterwards, Keter blew on his middle finger and looked down at Tarragon.

“Three seconds to stand up.”

“Ouch, Keter. Don’t do anything you’ll regret… … !”

Tarragon spent three seconds talking instead of standing up.

Wow!

Keter kicked Tarragon in the stomach.

widely!

However, Tarragon blocked the kick with his hand. As much as Tarragon is a decent knight, he is not an idiot who can’t stop an open attack even if he doesn’t know about surprise attacks.

However, Keter is no more stupid.

“Huh?!”

“no!?”

Tarragon was surprised, and Vulcanus was also surprised. This is because Kether lifted Tarragon with leg strength alone.

How could he lift a stout adult man with only one foot?

Keter raised her feet to waist height and slammed them down to the floor. Tarragon, who came to his senses belatedly, hurriedly let go of his hand, but he could not avoid falling.

thud!

“If you block, three more.”

Barbababak!

Keter kicked Tarragon all over the body. This time, it wasn’t a speed that Tarragon could stop.

“Keter. I think I hit five times now.”

At Vulcanus’ point, who was watching quietly from the sidelines, Keter said.

“It’s a mistake, don’t hit me again.”

Paba Park!

Keter, who had accurately hit three more times, spoke again.

“Two seconds to stand up.”

Jump up.

This time, Tarragon stands up right away.

Then he immediately swung his fist.

puck!

Tarragon’s fist landed on Keter’s forehead.

“Ugh?!”

But it was Tarragon who groaned.

Tarragon couldn’t believe it. How can a person’s forehead be this hard? It was like hitting steel.

Keter said with a smile.

“I mean, if you get hit by one, you get back tenfold.”

Tarragon raised his guard in preparation for an attack. Then Keter clenched her fists tightly and whispered.

“Twenty times if you avoid it.”

Boooooong! Perong!

Is this the sound a man makes when he punches?

The punch was so strong that the point of impact, Tarragon’s sleeve, was torn. Tarragon’s entire body was weakened in that one shot. His guard came loose as well.

After that, Keter’s merciless beating began. With his right hand, he grabbed Tarragon by the collar, and with his left hand, he pulled his whole body apart.

From noble mtl dot com

“Keter. stop beating There are already over ten.”

Even Vulcanus, who was anxious at first, stopped Keter now.

But the beating continued. Although it seemed like a random beating, Keter’s beating had its own rules.

Don’t touch the face.

Thanks to that, Tarragon looked fine on the outside. However, his whole body was bruised and his mind was dizzy with pain.

“Uh, uh uh… … .”

Tarragon, who had never groaned while being beaten, made a strange noise and drooped.

dump.

Tarragon collapses to the floor as soon as Keter lets go of his collar. As Tarragon flinched, almost half-strung, Keter said.

“One second to stand up.”

Softly, let Tarragon tremble and not stand up-

puck!

“It wasn’t so bad that I couldn’t wake up. One second to stand up.”

“… country boy Give it some more time. I feel so sorry.”

puck!

Despite Vulcan’s disapproval, Keter woke up Tarragon again within one second. Then he said without reason.

“To stand up… … .”

Jump!

finally got up Tarragon stood up while shaking his legs.

hooked!

Keter stabbed Tarragon in the eye with two fingers.

“Keah!”

Tarragon sat down again, clutching his eyes.

“Who wants to look at me like that? One second to stand up.”

“Putting out your eyes, isn’t that blinding?”

“Strength control is my specialty.”

Thanks to Vulcan’s buying time, Tarragon was able to stand up again in two seconds. This time, with eyes downcast and looking at the ground.

“name.”

Tarragon immediately responded to Keter’s words.

“Tah, Tarragon.”

“Is Tartaragon your name?”

“Tarragon… no see.”

“Let’s subtract is. Are we the rest? you are family Let’s not be tough.”

“… … .”

Then Vulcanus looked at Tarragon’s face and burst out laughing.

“The black spot is gone. It seems that you have escaped the temptation of Amaranth.”

“Call me by Sephira’s name.”

“Crazy. What are you thinking now? It looks like Tarragon overheard our great bow.”

“I already knew you were eavesdropping. I left it alone because I was curious about who it was. But it’s difficult to have any attachment to Amaranth.”

Tarragon, who had been stabbed to the point, flinched.

When Tarragon came to his senses, he realized what he had done. He also recognized that he had been seduced by Amaranth and entered the warehouse and did something rude.

However, because the desire to have amaranth was voluntary, Tarragon still longed for amaranth.

When Kether did as Taragon expected, he spoke to Vulcan.

“Dwarf old man. Let’s go.”

“Where are you talking?”

“To the old man’s house.”

“Why is our house?”

“Then are you going to stand here and talk?”

“… Okay, let’s go.”

Realizing that mixing words with Keter would only lead to confusion, Vulcanus resignedly took the lead.

Keter tapped Tarragon on the shoulder and said.

“Why are you so dead? When other people see it, they misunderstand it.”

“… … .”

So the three of them moved to the house of Vulcanus amicably.

* * *

It was a strange sight.

In a simple and crude house, two people were sitting.

Tarragon trembled as if it was cold. Vulcanus, who was sitting across from him, muttered with a sad face.

“Stop freaking out. As I looked, the bones and organs were intact. It’s a minor wound that will get better when you wake up.”

Then Keter brought a kettle and poured it into a teacup.

“There are shabby people in a precious place. It’s just cheap black tea, but you can have it.”

“This is our house, you bastard.”

The moment Tarragon, who wanted to drink warm tea, grabbed the cup-

“Well, by the way. What’s wrong with our tarragon?”

Kether, standing behind Tarragon, grabbed him by the shoulder. Tarragon flinched, but opened his mouth.

“Keter. i need amaranth because… … .”

“Okay, what’s the matter? Let’s not complicate it, let’s do this. I am willing to sell amaranth.”

“Sold? Amaranth?”

A blush came over Tarragon’s face. If it’s money, it’s because I don’t use it, so I have something saved.

Besides, Kether mentioned the word family. In other words, wouldn’t it be the implicit meaning of handing over Amaranth at a cheap price?

“Let’s go into the family discount and make a neat deal with three copies.”

Kether held up three fingers.

Tarragon blinked.

three sheets? Among the financial knowledge that Tarragon knew, the unit called ‘jang’ was the first time he had heard of it.

Tarragon blinked, and Keter pulled a piece of paper from her bosom and placed it on the table.

“Don’t you know the bill? A 1,000 gold note.”

“1,000 gold!?”

Tarragon freaked out.

Normally, a family of four commoners had 10 gold for a month, and a soldier’s monthly salary was 15 gold.

On the other hand, 1,000 gold was enough to buy a two-story building in a small town. Even if it’s three, 3,000 gold!

Tarragon murmured devastatedly.

“There is not even 300 gold, let alone 3,000 gold.”

“Make sure you’re a beggar.”

Retrieving the bill and putting it back in her bosom, Keter came forward and met Tarragon’s gaze.

“What can I give you other than money? I also receive the goods.”

“… There is no such thing.”

“Then I don’t think I can give you amaranth as a trade. Anything else to say?”

When Keter gave him room, Tarragon put his brain to work.

Vulcanus, who was enjoying this situation and sipping black tea, said with a surprised face.

“hmm? country boy Tea tastes good. I managed to get a deep taste for cheap.”

“I am Sephira’s golden hand.”

“Kuk-kuk. How many nicknames do you have?”

At that time, Tarragon, who was in agony, spoke in a voice without confidence.

“For me… deserve it.”

Vulcan and Keter looked at Tarragon at the same time. At this, Tarragon gulped and continued speaking firmly.

“Amaranth belongs to the Sephira family. Since I am the legitimate son of the Sephira family, I also have the right to be tested for ownership of Amaranth.”

Vulcan made a sad face.

“Sounds like it’s at best… … .”

“That makes sense.”

“Yes?”

When Keter sided with Tarragon, Tarragon raised his voice excitedly.

“Yeah, yes! Keter. I heard from my father that you’re eighteen years old? I am twenty one. so… … .”

“It wouldn’t be bullsh*t to call him brother. Let’s keep the line.”

“No, not that… I just wanted to tell you my age.”

“Let’s sort it out. I want to have amaranth, but I have no money. Instead, I want to be tested to see if I am qualified. Right?”

“right.”

“If you are not qualified to handle amaranth, give up cleanly. Right?”

“fit… all.”

As Keter and Tarragon moved their story along, Vulcan intervened.

“Wait a minute, old man. Amaranth is not something that can be exchanged so easily. Somehow, a catastrophe will happen on the day Tarragon loses consciousness and becomes a magic bullet shooter.”

“I will never be distracted by tools or anything!”

Tarragon, who recovered his strength after resting for a while, got up from his seat and insisted strongly, and Vulcanus also stood up and said,

“This is not a tool! And by the looks of it, you are not the vessel to handle amaranth!”

The two of them lit up their eyes and had a snowball fight. Keter said yes or no, pushing the table against the wall.

“Come on, old dwarf. Although Tarragon has a dumbfounded face, you won’t know until you die if the bowl is small. Tarragon, take it. Please hand over Amaranth.”

Swoop.

As if to shake hands, Keter’s right hand was extended.

A hand eroded by amaranth and stained black. Tarragon swallowed.

Vulcan said he couldn’t stop Keter anyway, so he brought the hammer he had leaned against the wall instead.

“Countryman. If Tarragon becomes the magic bullet’s shooter, he must be stunned before he completely transforms.”

Turn-up.

Before Keter could reply, Tarragon made contact with Amaranth.

Chuwaaak!

Amaranth from Keter’s right hand began to be sucked into Tarragon’s left hand.

“Aww!”

Tarragon bit his lip until it bled, and endured it tenaciously.

And soon after.

Amaranth was completely transferred to Tarragon’s right hand.

From noble mtl dot com

Whoops!

A pitch-black bow, Amaranth, appeared from Taragon’s right hand. Tarragon was taken aback, then smiled broadly.

“I was chosen… … .”

Kulleong.

It happened in an instant.

The black airflow that spread from the amaranth instantly wrapped around Tarragon’s body.

“What is this? Such rapid erosion!”

Vulcanus freaked out and fixed his hammer, but Keter stood in front of Vulcanus.

“Dwarf old man. Leave this to the solver.”

“Your nickname is not important right now. We must subdue Tarragon quickly!”

Vulcan pushed Keter away and leaped, but the black air current that had already turned into a storm bounced Vulcan away.

“Ugh!”

The massive Vulcanus flew like a feather and crashed into the wall.

Keter clicked her tongue.

“It’s okay, because I know how to do it.”

A tremendous wind pressure tore through the house.

Wind pressure enough to shake the pillar. Keter was also affected by the storm, his clothes and hair fluttering relentlessly – but he began to walk slowly.

Towards the center of the storm, Tarragon.

The wind pressure intensified as Kether got closer to Tarragon, but Kether proceeded at the same speed as at the beginning and eventually reached in front of Tarragon.

Turn-up.

Keter stretched out her arm and grabbed the floating Tarragon by the collar.

Then, the shape of a demon appeared from behind Tarragon’s back. Amaranth’s main body materialized.

Keter raised her left fist.

“Hold tight to your spirit. The soul flies.”

As Keter slammed Tarragon into the ground, he punched the face of the demon that was being dragged down with it.
