Chapter 141: Map

Until now, I’ve always assumed that the underworld, regardless of the Dark Guild or other dark organizations, generally operated at the same level.

However, it was a fact that I had never heard of this secret society called Black Rose. I never heard of the black-masked man’s existence nor about an organization that managed to raise someone as powerful as the slave wearing the maid’s uniform in front of me.

With just this information, I can tell that there is an organization that reaches even deeper and darker than the underworld I am part of.

The answer derived was too terrifying.

It would take more than a year or two to raise a single slave to this level but no more than ten to twenty to cultivate such expertise.

And yet, even I did not know the name of this organization until now.

Not only did the Black Mask approach me, but I learned the name of their organization, Black Rose, although it was through a slave’s mouth.

It implies that my only future is death.

Otherwise, it would not be possible to maintain such anonymity for such a long period of time.

The only thing I can tell is that they’ve been doing this for a while now, killing anyone who has the slightest bit of information, or dropping them into slavery like Karendoll and drawing them into their secret society, the Black Rose.

I can tell because of the crest engraved on Karendoll’s chest right in front of my naked eyes.

She makes no pretense of hiding it and openly shows it on her chest as if to show it off instead.

It is proof that no matter how high the nobility may be, they will be reduced to slavery without mercy for anonymity.

Meanwhile, I was supposed to get killed off from the beginning.

That’s why a man in a black mask had appeared before me and why the slave in a maid’s outfit gave me their organization’s name.

I got underestimated.

It’s true that I lost one arm, and even the summoning ring got taken from me, but even with this, I have survived as the Dark Guild Master until now.

Even without the ring and a missing arm, I’m confident I can get away from them if I just focus on escaping.

There’s no doubt that she is a strong opponent, but there’s nothing I can’t do about it.

”Thus, I’ll teach Karendoll-san how to use the unique skill called [Map] from now on.”

I heard such a voice behind me, but I didn’t even think about what kind of unique skill it might be and just started running, hoping to escape.
