Knights of Whores (1)
Accidents happen without warning.
Destruction happens without warning.
The dark things in life always hide in the shadows and come silently behind us.
Just like now.
“Hey kid. “Where is your boss?”
A shadow of a strange shape appeared in front of Vlad, who was selling candles.
It was huge, but its left arm was strangely bent.
It looked like a person with an alien hook instead of where it should have been.
Vlad, who recognized who was talking to him, swallowed his saliva and was embarrassed.
“······I’m a candle seller, so I don’t know that much.”
With his characteristic boldness, he grasped the situation and gave the answer he needed to give.
bang-!
At the same time as he said that, one of One-Armed Jack’s subordinates hit the desk where Vlad was sitting.
“What boss is talking about a bastard who doesn’t even have blood on his head!”
“······.”
Colorful roses fluttering as the man shouts.
Everyone’s attention was focused on Rose’s smile at the suddenly dangerous atmosphere.
The atmosphere hardens.
A feeling of silence comes.
The red-haired girl covered her mouth with both hands and hurried to the fourth floor when she saw this.
“oh my······.”
However, even in this situation where everyone was frozen, there was one person who moved naturally.
Even under the pressure of men who are one head taller than him.
“The candles are all gone. “This is expensive.”
“This crazy bastard…”
One-armed Jack’s subordinate’s face turned red as he watched Vlad calmly picking up the candles that had fallen on the floor, ignoring his warning.
But Vlad didn’t stop there.
Tuk-tuk.
Vlad said, patting the feet of the man who was trembling and barely holding back his anger.
“Brother, please clean your feet.”
“·····
A man who tries to kick the boy under his feet as if he can no longer endure Vlad’s cleverly provoking words.
“······!”
Fighting is a microcosm of war.
The intended battlefield, the planned situation. And only bold decisions promised victory.
And Vlad knew it well.
It was a threatening situation to anyone, but Vlad seemed to have been waiting for the situation, so he pulled out his club like lightning and struck the man’s ankle mercilessly.
That was the intention from the beginning.
Bah!
“Oops!”
A man screaming with a light hitting sound.
A moment when I lost my balance due to an unexpected attack and was shaken for a moment.
“······!”
Seizing the opportunity, the energy of the blue eyes became fierce.
Vlad stood up with animalistic movements without wasting a moment.
puck-!
Vlad, who quickly pinned his upper body, struck him in the jaw with the club he was holding, and his pure white teeth popped out in disarray.
It was an action planned in my head.
“Sigh!”
At the same time, Vlad struck the man in the chest with a sharp backward kick, and at the same time safely widened the distance.
A move that brings two benefits with one movement.
“This is the main room of your house!”
Vlad, who clearly had the upper hand, shouted the words that started in his heart and threw the club he was holding, accurately.
Bah!
It struck the forehead of a man who was already struggling and falling backwards.
It was a bold move.
“Kaaak!”
bang-!
In the blink of an eye, the large man fell as helplessly as a rotten tree from Vlad’s repeated blows.
“······what.”
Even though their colleague fell, One-Armed Jack’s men could only open their mouths wide and none of them could move easily.
A blow that caught one off guard.
The violence that the boy wielded was something no one expected.
“Huuuk…huuuk….”
“Off…”
So, of the two, the only one standing was a blonde boy with a fierce look in his eyes and controlling his breathing.
Winners on top, losers on the bottom.

Reproducing one of the unchanging laws of the back alley.
“······.”
“······.”
One-armed Jack’s subordinates were mesmerized by the sudden situation.
If we were to measure time alone, it would have been an exaggeration to say that it happened in a matter of minutes.
“You bastard!”
“How dare you in front of someone!”
The big guys, who had finally figured out the situation, became angry and tried to attack Vlad.
“stop.”
With a deep voice, he stopped like an obedient dog.
“······I really like this guy.”
His subordinate fell without even swinging his fist properly, but One-Armed Jack instead clapped happily.
Although there was only a small sound of the palm meeting the cold hook.
“Please understand that I can’t make a sound because I only have one arm.”
“······I do not discriminate against the disabled.”
“Hahaha! “You crazy bastard!”
One-armed Jack laughed out loud as he looked at the young gang member who dared to raise his chin proudly in front of him.
“I’ll see you later.”
“······.”
Vlad realized that this was the final line allowed to him.
The moment you cross this line that One-Armed Jack has so generously allowed, you will be ignoring his authority, and what will happen if you do so.
“Money bug! “What’s going on here!”
Fortunately, there was a large man coming down the stairs at that moment.
A grizzled man walking down wearing a shining breastplate like a knight, with his subordinates following him.
Jorge, the knight of the whores.
In Jorge’s footsteps, I could sense a presence that was different from usual, overwhelming someone.
“If I had sent the message in advance, I would have roasted your meat!”
Boss and boss.
An imminent situation faced by an organization.
The knight who protects the rose’s smile smiled fiercely as he welcomed a sudden uninvited guest.
“No, it’s not like we were communicating that intimately.”
One-armed Jack answered while scratching his head with his hook.
The two bosses are smiling on their lips, but on the inside they are holding their swords and having a conversation.
The guests who visited Rose’s smile were holding their breath and looking as if the current scene was more important than the naked women next to them.
“We have guests, so why not come up first?”
“Do you have any meat?”
“Marcela is a woman who doesn’t shy away from treating guests.”
“Well then.”
As he headed to the 4th floor, the heart of Jorge’s organization, one-armed Jack’s actions were extremely bold.
That was the distribution of the person who ruled the back alleys of the city of Shoara.
“Do you like that little boy?”
At One-Armed Jack’s nod, Jorge looked at Vlad, who was catching his breath.
Jack’s subordinates, who were still unconscious, were lying sprawled at the boy’s feet.
“Because he is a promising member of our organization.”
“Who did I take instead of that guy last year? “I don’t even remember it, so I guess I looked it up too early.”
Jorge narrowed his eyes at Vlad as he walked up with one-armed Jack.
It was a sign that the boy’s mission as Chopal and the gatekeeper of the castle called Rose’s Smile had been successfully accomplished.
“······I almost fell behind.”
Only after seeing Jorge’s signal did Vlad relax.
As the leaders of the two organizations slowly ascending the stairs disappeared from sight, Vlad kicked the fallen figure.
“Brother. The candle on the 2nd floor is 20 silver and the candle on the 3rd floor is 30 silver. “Just pay for what you broke and go.”
“Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu….”
“Don’t pretend to sleep. “Before I throw the club one more time.”
One-armed Jack’s subordinate, who had fallen, heard the sound and only responded with a faint groan.
※※※※
“Oh my, Vlad. “Look at the wound here.”
“This needs to be treated in advance.”
“that’s right. If it adds up, you’ll be in big trouble. “I happen to have a medicine that’s good for wounds…”
It was a short battle, but Vlad was checking for any possible injuries.
“······Why are they like this all of a sudden?”
Women began to cling to Vlad’s side.
“oh. Look at what he says. “How worried we were about you.”
“I feel sorry for you when I say that, Vlad, for how much I have fed and taken care of you.”
“······.”
Prostitutes flock to Vlad’s side, acting out of character.
For these women who made a living by selling their bodies, just having a man who worked hard was by their side made business much easier.
Plus, the guy is young and promising.
Sigh-
“Kyaa-! “Look at his muscles!”
“When did you grow up like this? “The man is done!”
“Everyone, please go away.”
Especially if it is a handsome man with blonde hair and blue eyes that everyone prefers.
Vlad, who had clearly proven his worth through the fight just now, seemed like prey that would be hard to miss in the eyes of the prostitutes.
Vlad chased them away, swearing at them, but even his unique rebellious appearance was only an attractive factor to the prostitutes.
Because even though Vlad speaks harshly, everyone already knows that he is kind to women.
“Move! “Get out of the way!”
“You bitch! “What do you know about your seniors?”
“What are you doing, senior?” “On the topic of those who want to take what belongs to others!”
There was a girl who was approaching those prostitutes.
“it’s crazy! it’s crazy!”
Unlike the girls who gave him tempting looks, Zemina started slapping Vlad on the back as soon as she saw him.
“Why are you so damned!”
“You did it first! “What are you doing to a big guy?”
“I did it because it was worth it!”
“It’s worth it! What a difference in weight class! Are you an asshole? “Is your eye sprained?”
Gemina was hitting and scolding him, but Vlad only frowned and did not take any particularly threatening action.
Because he knew very well that all her actions were because she was worried about him.
“Just do the dishes. “Why did you come here?”
“······You idiot.”
However, growing up in a rough place, it was inevitable that harsh words would come out.
“Jorge has been there for a long time. “You idiot.”
“Don’t swear.”
“Jorge has been there for a long time. “You idiot.”
“······.”
Although he knew that his wrong reaction had caused Zemina to become entangled, Vlad decided to stand up.
Because Jorge’s call was more important than Gemina’s sulk.
A staircase that passes through the smile of a rose.
As Vlad was going up through there, he saw One-Armed Jack and his men coming down the stairs.
“Hey prospect!”
“······yes.”
Even though he was not the boss he served, Vlad was polite to him.
“I liked you. “If you lose your job later, come work for me.”
One-Armed Jack said, tapping Vlad on the head with his hook.
“The welfare benefits here are also good. Give me food and money. “Let me sleep.”
“Hehehe! “We can do that too.”
Vlad bowed his head as he saw off one-armed Jack, who was passing by with a smile.
“Oh!”
One-armed Jack turned around as if he suddenly remembered something and threw something away in his arms.
Ting-
It was shiny.
“This······.”
“My subordinate broke the candle, right? “That’s the price.”
Vlad looked down at his palms blankly.
It was a gold coin.
“······There are too many.”
“I’ll give you as much as you want if you come to me. “I’m a money maker.”
As soon as the short conversation with Vlad ended, One-Armed Jack waved his hand and shouted without even looking back.
“I had a good time! “Jorge!”
With those words, Jack’s subordinates come out giggling and smiling like roses.
They came in like a storm and went out like the ebb of the tide.
They disappeared, leaving a big mark on Rose’s smile.
“······.”
After confirming that One-Armed Jack had left the store, Vlad put the gold coins in his arms and hurried up the stairs.
The 4th floor where Jorge is located.
Up there, not only Jorge, but also Burray and other subordinates were lined up.
The fourth floor was always full of laughter and the smell of greasy food, but right now there was only a suffocating silence.
“Jorge. “I’m here.”
“uh. “Sit down.”
Perhaps because One-Armed Jack hadn’t eaten much, there were plenty of meats grilled by Marcella in front of Jorge.
“What did Jack say?”
“······.”
Instead of answering Vlad’s words, Jorge handed over the knife he was cutting the meat with.
“What is this? “Am I giving you a knife now?”
“okay. you take it “I just cut it and it was okay.”
Vlad didn’t have a sword yet.
This is because Vlad, the youngest member of the Jorge family, has not yet been qualified to hold a sword.
“wow······.”
Although it was not as fancy as the sword hanging in the blacksmith shop, the sword that Jorge gave him was longer than any blade Vlad had ever held.
“I was originally going to give it to you, but due to the circumstances, I gave it to you a little early.”
“thank you!”
The dagger that Jorge gave me was not simply given for practical use.
A knife given directly by the boss.
It was proof that he not only proved his worth but also gained the trust of his boss.
“Keep kicking it forward. “Please ask Burray for the dagger sheath.”
“all right.”
Looking at Vlad, whose eyes were sparkling and happy, Jorge smiled bitterly.
“Vlad.”
“yes.”
“You always have to wear it.”
“······yes.”
Jorge’s eyes became heavier than usual.
Vlad, who was happy to receive the dagger, then began to look around.
“······all right.”
Organization members with subtly stiff expressions.
“I will definitely wear it.”
A boss who handed a knife to even the youngest member of the organization.
Vlad could sense it through the flowing air.
That the conversation between Jorge and One-Armed Jack was a disaster.
