(EP-23.2) Angmar #3

023 – Peaceful Angmar #3

“Damn. That Queen Aira was really scary, huh? It felt like you were looking at a black hole with no end in sight!”

Marmar chatted nonstop until I finished all the work in the office.

My ears hurt a little, but it wasn’t too bad since I gained quite a bit of information.

“We have no choice but to follow the current Angmar. There is no other way, we have to adapt to live.”

“That’s true…”

The Ogre Gorgor.

The Imp Marmar.

Like the two above, there were actually quite a few types of monsters living amongst the people.

Having intelligence meant that they could coexist with other races.

Among such beings, monsters that resembled humans, at least those with arms and legs, were called ‘humanoids’.

Of course, that didn’t mean that their treatment would be good.

After all, these servants of the old Demon King Angmar had now been reduced to mere captives.

This world was not kind enough to lend a warm hand to such beings. Non-payment of wages was the default and if they were disliked, they would be burned at the stake.

Thanks to that, it felt like these monsters were ticking time bombs that could explode at any time.

Like Gorgor, these disgruntled monsters would inevitably cause chaos and riots all over the Kingdom….

If such incidents continued while Angmar’s manpower and resources dwindled, it would only be natural for the national power to slowly decline.

Thus, I chose to make anti-discrimination laws for monsters.

However, would the ‘labor assistant’ owners, who had tasted cheap labor, not fiercely oppose it?

Right now, there had already been considerable opposition to the fact that Imps, Ogres and other monsters were classified as ‘humanoids’ like the Elves, Dwarves and Nymphs.

The owners had also made their stance in front of the court.

━If we have to give monsters minimum wage, all of us small and medium-sized owners will go bankrupt!

━Everyone, let’s all stand together!

As I was thinking about that, Marmar snorted.

“But we have hope. One day, Angmar the savior will return once more. He will create a peaceful and fair world for us!”

Marmar clenched both of her fists like some warrior.

Demon King Angmar being the one and only savior was a common belief among monsters.

Even the Ogre Gorgor said that the only true King was the Demon King Angmar.

What was it that made them so loyal to the deceased Demon King? Was it simply because of the story setting?

Thinking that there might be a hint on how to control the monsters, I asked Marmar.

“Why do you think Angmar is coming back? As far as I know, the four families already tore him to shreds and burned his corpse to ashes.”

The wise Tarantera Family.

The valiant Lioness Family.

The free Belhawk Family.

The devout Draco Family.

These four great families united for a rebellion, and the Tarantera Family, who accomplished the most, inherited the throne through an agreement.

This was the story that had been told to most people.

However, the monsters might know something more.

Marmar the Imp said ‘muh-huh’ with a dark shadow on her face.

“King Angmar is coming back. He’s not dead yet. This is the proof. Long live Angmar!”

Seuk-

Marmar then gestured towards the air. It looked like she was ‘manipulating’ thin air.

However, I knew what this meant.

“Oh my, Marmar, do you have a System?”

“Yes. It is a power granted only to Angmar-nim’s faithful followers.”

“Ooooh…!”

I felt a shiver.

It really was a System.

Come to think of it, there was such a thing.

The original novel ‘Villain Hunter’ was popular.

However, there were some parts where likes and dislikes were largely divided, mostly due to the setting that was highly criticized for being convenient.

It was often called the ‘Status Window’.

A System that listed levels, skills, titles, etc.

At that time, I was also a very simple and insincere reader, so I just skipped those.

But now, I really hoped that I had a Status Window as well.

Obviously, I didn’t have it. If I did, I wouldn’t be suffering like this… F_ck!

Anyway, Marmar had one.

Like a mime, Marmar moved her hand towards the air.

“This is made up of Angmar-nim’s unique magics: Revelation, Foresight, Bless. Its existence means that Angmar-nim is still alive somewhere!”

Unique magic?

Thinking in my head, I sorted through an encyclopedia.

“By ‘unique magics’, are you referring to the ones possessed by Rank 5 or higher Mages?”

“That’s right.”

To use an analogy, it’s like manhae(bankai), devil’s fruit or breathing technique. It was a special skill unique to Mages.

Marmar continued.

“Honestly, only powers at Rank 5 could be called ‘magic’. Anything below that is no different from tricks performed by thugs.”

“I see…”

Only those Rank 5 or higher were considered true ‘Mages’.

With that in mind, there were probably fewer than ten people in this world who could be called that.

Marmar then said.

“For your information, Angmar-nim was the first and last Mage to reach Rank 10. The King of Mages. And he had…! He had three unique magics…!”

I already knew this.

His power, which was Rank 10, literally desecrated and twisted the rules of this world. It went beyond magic and became its own unique existence.

That overflowing power eventually left a huge rift in the world.

In many ways, it was a really huge crack.

Could said rift be the reason that caused me to fall into this strange world?

Marmar spoke amidst my thoughts.

“You said you are a Half-Nymph, right? Then you would probably be able to accept Angmar-nim’s blessing. Want me to help you?”

“Is that possible?”

“Of course! For some reason, Imps and Nymphs have a lot in common. Perhaps it’s because the Nymphs are trying to imitate us superior Imps!”

12 gold coins.

I thought I was just throwing them away.

But now, it felt like I had stumbled upon a boon!
