Chapter 50: The Black Fangs Shelter (3)
As soon as I mentioned opposing the Holy Church, Miss Rubia’s expression darkened rapidly.
Her hands trembled violently.
Her face turned pale.
And cold sweat ran down her neck.
‘This person really knows how to overreact.’
Anyone would think I had just declared war on the Holy Church.
I mean, I’m not the leader of a terrorist organization. Why would I suddenly declare an all-out war?
Before I could even explain, Miss Rubia’s eyes half-closed. It wasn’t the first time something like this had happened.
I managed to catch her as she fainted again.She was so scared that she really fainted.
I shook the unconscious Miss Rubia.
Thankfully, I didn’t need to splash water on her. She opened her eyes soon enough.
“Are you feeling better?”
I asked the dazed Miss Rubia. I didn’t want her to misunderstand like last time.
I quickly added the explanation I had skipped.
“There’s no need to be so scared. When I said it’s okay to oppose the Holy Church, it was really just a thoughtless remark.”
A suspicious organization rivaling the Empire.
That alone should explain how dubious the Holy Church is.
An Empire engulfed in flames.
A desolate scene with not a soul in sight.
The destruction I saw in the game PV.
It’s a very reasonable suspicion that the Holy Church will have a hand in that future, that horrific end.
So, it’s inevitable that I will become their enemy.
One day, I will have to uncover all the secrets they’re hiding.
“Of course, it’s better to avoid it if possible.”
That goes without saying.
Even if it’s inevitable that I’ll face the Holy Church one day,
there’s no need to rush it.
“We’ll try to prevent conflict with the Holy Church as much as possible...”
Honestly, I’d prefer to strengthen our forces here and confront them when victory is certain.
But things don’t always go as planned.
If we really can’t avoid conflict,
“Well, if worse comes to worst, we’ll just have to use the Black Fangs to erase the Holy Church from the world.”
Let’s borrow the power of the Black Fangs.
Didn’t I bring them a huge profit last time?
Even now, the Empire is in an uproar because of the video I released. It’s not an exaggeration to say that I’m the Black Fangs’s top contributor.
Although it’s been tough lately trying to contact that secretive organization,
if I can reach them, I’m sure the results will be good.
After all, the Holy Church and the Empire are closely connected. They would want to oppose the Holy Church as well.
Me, Siel, and Lien.
And the mysterious organization, the Black Fangs.
Two groups joining forces for a combined attack.
“Without much thought, He will just... erase the Holy Church from this world... The Holy Church seems like such a trivial existence to this person....”
Miss Rubia muttered something with a resigned expression.
Mumbling to herself so quietly made me worry she might be ill.
Is the Holy Church really that terrifying?
They might seem a bit shady and suspicious, but their public image isn’t that bad.
Maybe it’s because Miss Rubia, as a noble, has heard a lot of unsettling rumors about the Holy Church.
With that in mind, I grabbed Miss Rubia’s shoulders and shook her again.
At this rate, I’m genuinely worried if she can function properly in society.
She might faint in a children’s haunted house.
“I-I’m sorry for passing out so often.”
Miss Rubia muttered tearfully after I shook her awake again.
I ended up having to take care of her mental state for a long time.
Telling her how much she has helped us, how unbearable our situation would be without her assistance.
I patted Miss Rubia on the back, feeling like a babysitter.
It was dizzying to soothe a twenty-seven-year-old woman.
But there was no other choice since I owed her a favor.
“……”
After an awkward while, Miss Rubia’s complexion returned to normal.
No, calling it normal might be a stretch.
Her face was so red, it looked like it might explode any second.
“Don’t worry about it. It happens to everyone when they’re stressed.”
Seeing her pitiful state, I spoke as gently as I could.
Miss Rubia avoided my gaze for a long while, then finally nodded.
And so, this babysitting incident was officially erased from history.
“I completely understand what you’re trying to say.”
Miss Rubia cleared her throat awkwardly and said,
“This time, I’ll prove my worth. The vision you’ve drawn will be perfectly realized by my hands.”
Miss Rubia declared confidently, with her hands clasped over her chest.
Honestly, it would be a lie to say my trust in her hadn’t wavered after seeing her earlier reaction.
But she’s someone who gets things done when it matters.
Given her determination, I decided to trust her.
‘The remaining issue is how to handle the Holy Church and the Empire….’
The potion business isn’t that large, but it’s not tiny either.
When things change drastically, it inevitably draws attention.
It would create a huge hassle—like the Holy Church’s interference or the Empire’s machinations.
I needed a good way to minimize that.
I had to protect Miss Rubia from being targeted.
I needed to divert their attention away from her.
After a moment of thought… I had a brilliant idea.
‘Celebrity scandal.’
Whenever there’s trouble among the higher-ups, shocking celebrity news conveniently breaks out.
It’s a common tactic because it works.
To cover up an incident, creating a more sensational one is the best approach.
‘And currently, the hottest name in the Empire’s society is… the Black Fangs.’
A smile naturally formed on my lips.
If I caused a scandal using the Black Fangs’s name at this timing, it would definitely become a huge topic.
I hesitated slightly, wondering if it was right to impersonate the most notorious crime organization.
‘Well, I did it once before, and nothing happened.’
Plus, I helped them by spreading the video.
They wouldn’t mind if I used their name for a good cause, right?
Moreover, this would also benefit the Black Fangs. I planned to use their name to save people in the slums.
In essence, I’m helping to build their revolutionary support base.
“Miss Rubia, can you possibly get me a magic addiction cure?”
“Huh? Well… I do have some extra left over.”
Luckily,
Miss Rubia not only thwarted the mastermind’s plan but also managed to obtain the magic addiction cure she was developing.
She really is capable.
When it comes to daily life, she might struggle, but when it comes to work, she handles it brilliantly.
I think I can leave this business in her hands.
“Can you prepare some of it?”
Miss Rubia nodded, looking somewhat dazed.
I thanked her politely and left the room.
As I walked down the ornate mansion’s corridor, I used communication magic to contact everyone.
From Siel to Lien.
And the other kids as well.
I gathered all my companions.
Since I decided to entrust the business to Miss Rubia,
it was time for me to do what I had to do.
‘It might not be as easy as I thought.’
An unexpected giant in the potion business.
With a crazy recipe that reduces costs by 100 times, shaking up the industry, businesswoman Miss Rubia.
To overshadow such a huge sensation, I needed to create an even bigger incident.
It definitely wouldn’t be easy.
But… I’m confident.
Having lived for over a decade as an internet-savvy person,
swimming in the sea of trolls and sensationalism.
I can create something even more sensational.
‘The Black Fangs starts their activities in earnest… is too weak.’
It lacks the necessary shock factor.
I need something more provocative.
As I pondered, a phrase popped into my mind.
‘The Black Fangs can even save patients with incurable diseases?!
The Empire is shocked and the Holy Church weeps in jealousy! The Black Fangs saves the slum people suffering from magic addiction!
Another humiliation for the Holy Church.
The Pope kneels, begging, “Please stop! We surrender!”
The Holy Church was just an ordinary organization born in an era without the Black Fangs?!
Is a wind of revolution blowing through the Empire?’
Perfect.
This will be the material for my propaganda video.
By spreading this kind of video and provoking them widely, neither the Holy Church nor the Empire will have time to worry about a single businessman.
Of course, I’ll need to tweak the content a bit for realism.
It’s time to release a new video instead of re-broadcasting old ones from the black market.
As I reached the stairs, I saw the kids already gathered in the lobby.
They were quicker than I expected.
‘At this point, it’s clear the heavens are on my side.’
Seeing them gathered, I couldn’t help but think so.
I didn’t even need to disguise them as the Black Fangs.
They already looked enough like the Black Fangs.
Who would have thought our black robes would come in handy like this? This is a good omen.
With a slight smile, I spoke up.
“Let’s head to the slums for a bit.”
It was time to save people in the name of the Black Fangs.
