Chapter 71

Near Gunsan, Parnello and I landed on a mountain owned by Corleone and immediately checked the map and got on a motorcycle that was prepared nearby.

“I’ll drive. You sit in the back, sir.”

Parnello, who sat in the front seat as if it was obvious, put on a helmet.

Come to think of it, I don’t even have a license right now.

“…Okay.”

I needed to sort out my thoughts anyway, so I sat in the back without a word at Parnello’s words.

The motorcycle, which was very quiet despite running at a tremendous speed, seemed to be using a magic stone engine that I had seen in the game.

“Parnello, did you get any additional information from Rate?”

“Yes, her location and the villains chasing her. There was no other information that arrived.”

“…Really?”

Something was strange.

If this was a game, this mission would have been done by Parnello alone as always.

Then he would have succeeded in rescuing Rate and dealt with all the other villains, so the contact with the player would have completely disappeared.

But in the game, you could meet all the other villains except Rate if you participated in the prison break event.

That means that in any situation, Parnello failed, Rate died, and the villains all escaped.

“Parnello, who is Rate?”

Who is she that my father personally sent me and Parnello to rescue her?

And why are the villains trying so hard to catch Rate?

I needed information about Rate, the villain, to know this.

“…Rate, sir?”

Did he think my question was unexpected? Parnello spoke as if he was puzzled.

“Surely, sir, you didn’t have much chance to meet Rate.”

Didn’t have many chances to meet her?

“…Rate is an organization member who has been taken care of by Corleone since she was young.”

…Huh?

One of the villains who escaped this time grew up in Corleone since she was young?

“How did that happen…?”

“It’s not a big deal. It’s just that Don picked up an orphan who was begging on the street.”

“Father did?”

“Yes, as you know, at that time, many dungeons were formed and monsters overflowed, so many people lost their lives. Because of that, there were many orphans and Don established an orphanage for them.”

The part that Parnello was talking about was all what I had heard while taking successor classes.

“Rate was also just a little kid at that time, but she awakened at the orphanage and started training as an organization member from then on. It’s such a long relationship.”

“…So that’s why you tried to rescue her. She’s like family if she grew up in Corleone.”

“Yes, I’ve known her since she was young and also because she drove away many threats to Corleone with her ability to control and communicate with rats.”

But there was something strange as he explained.

“Then why did you let her go into Niflheim?”

“That’s because… Rate was the most suitable for the mission of infiltrating Niflheim.”

According to Parnello, the villain alliance showed strange signs recently, so they sent a spy to Niflheim, which had the most contact with them, to find out their movements.

And after obtaining information, she failed to quietly get away from them while escaping, and that’s why she’s being chased like this.

“Then they probably don’t even know that Rate is from Corleone yet?”

“They probably only know her as a spy from another organization. They won’t know unless Rate opens her mouth first.”

It was ridiculous to think about it.

Do they really know that they have turned Corleone into an enemy right now?

Parnello, who arrived near the factory complex, gradually slowed down and parked his motorcycle.

The abandoned factory complex looked eerie in the orange street light.

I had just gotten off the motorcycle, but I already felt a suspicious aura.

“There seem to be a lot of guests waiting.”

“Yes. It’s too quiet for a place where someone is hiding.”

If anyone was looking for someone in this large place, they would have seen someone’s figure or heard some noise or sign, but the factory complex was eerily quiet like a sleeping child’s breath.

“It seems he has been caught by them.”

“It seems so.”

If they intended to use her as bait or get information out of him, they would have held her somewhere.

“I think it’s better to think of a frontal attack.”

“Then we need to take some measures beforehand.”

Parnello sat down in front of the motorcycle and started fiddling with something.

Wiiiiiiing──

At that moment, a faint blue light began to circulate around the body of the motorcycle.

“I activated the jamming device, so you don’t have to worry about their communication leaking out in this area.”

…I thought it wasn’t an ordinary motorcycle, but I didn’t expect it to have a communication jamming device installed.

“What’s the range?”

“It’s enough to cover the factory complex and more.”

“That’s enough.”

Then there’s no need to worry about the fact that we came to rescue Rate being Corleone leaking to the villain alliance if we clear everyone in this area.

Before entering the factory complex, Parnello muttered quietly while looking around.

“One sniper on the second floor warehouse on the left, four people waiting on the first floor on the right, two snipers on the roof of the front warehouse building. Interesting.”

He just scanned with his eyes and figured out the location of the enemies.

“I’ll go straight in and break their traps. Can you secure Rate in the meantime, sir?”

“Okay.”

Parnello smiled coldly and picked up a knife in one hand and a pistol in the other.

“Then, see you later, sir.”

At the same time, his figure disappeared in front of my eyes, and soon after, fear increased greatly in the second floor warehouse where the sniper was, and then disappeared as if it was a lie.

One person had lost his life at Parnello’s hand.

“…I don’t have to worry about that side.”

Parnello would have survived even if he came alone.

The important thing was my role so I also moved my feet and entered the factory complex while avoiding them.

The factory complex, which was lit only by street lights and moonlight, was emitting a faint wind sound like a sleeping child’s breath.

“It’s hard to pinpoint the location with just fear.”

I think of another way to find Rate’s location.

If this is an enemy of the organization, my overall ability is increased by 1.5 times due to the trait 【Executor】.

In addition, how many people are hiding in this factory complex? [Bloodline: Corleone] will also show its power from now on.

“It seems like I just need to concentrate a little more.”

It was easy for me to gather aura, but spreading it was something I was confident in, so I started spreading aura slowly.

I slowly scatter aura in the air.

Like dust melting in the moonlight and cotton candy melting in water, I draw out a faint red aura and scatter it as widely as possible.

Then the surrounding terrain slowly comes to mind.

[The effect of Smart Lens is activated.]

[The map is displayed within the range where the aura touches.]

A message pops up in my head so I slowly open my eyes and see the map of the factory complex in front of me.

Like sprinkling ink on paper, shapes appear little by little where my aura touches.

This skill is no different from map hacking, that’s why a new message popped up in front of me.

[You acquired 「Skill: Aura Sonar」]

“Ha, I finally got it.”

It was the first skill I got since I came to this world.

I thought I had used some special techniques until now, but maybe the ones I used were not complete enough to be considered skills, so this kind of alarm didn’t pop up.

It makes sense, since I’ve been fighting with brute force until now.

The number of enemies caught by 「Aura Sonar」 was 15 in total, and villains were also mixed among them.

Three people were hovering around one …What is this movement?

“──Found it.”

I immediately activated the skill Abyssal Jade Hair built into the suit [DisPater] that I received from Maestro.

Sssssss─

My whole body was dyed black as if it was eroded by darkness. Not only the color, but also the feeling that my presence was completely faint.

‘It’s better than I imagined?’

I hide in the shadows where the moonlight doesn’t reach and move my steps slowly. It was a technique to hide oneself in the darkness, so there was no sign of detecting me.

At the same time, a huge explosion and smoke started to rise from the factory where Parnello had headed.

He also started a proper battle over there so I had to move quickly while their eyes were on that place.

The target presumed to be Rate was inside a two-story office building.

“You never know, so I’ll do my best.”

I attach a silencer to [Al Capone’s Tommy].

It was a reward for completing a quest at the Academy in the past, and it had an effect of greatly reducing the gunshot sound.

The performance of the silencer was really like in the movies, only making a quiet and sharp sound.

It’s a shame for the nickname Chicago Typewriter… but I can’t help it for the mission.

Click─

As I finished preparing and quietly entered, I felt a sense of incongruity.

Come to think of it, why did an explosion sound from the direction where Parnello was?

Parnello didn’t bring any bombs or anything like that.

I paid attention and slowly climbed up the stairs and saw a thin fishing line installed on the stairs.

“You’ve prepared all kinds of things.”

I didn’t expect them to play such tricks from the entrance.

I carefully moved my steps and stood in front of the door and activated 「Skill: Aura Sonar」 again to check the situation inside.

Everyone was standing except for one. Then I should break into the door and suppress them at once──

───────!!

Suddenly, something exploded and the door broke while my body flew back.

“Oh? I thought I caught all the rats, but there was another rat?!”

A sharp-faced woman with white hair that was stretched out, sharp eyes and sharp claws on both hands ran out through the door.

“Hello, kiddo?”

It was my first encounter with Villain Blanca.
