Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? Chapter 146

◈Episode 146 Everything went as it should (6)

I wandered outside for a while and returned after about a couple of hours.

I thought that by then the incident would be over and the conversation would be over.

“Are you here?”

And it wasn’t wrong. I was able to hear a summary of the incident in exchange for looks asking if there had been another accident.

The story was roughly that there was a problem with Lord Ednium Soseong and that he needed to go there.

“Under normal circumstances, I would have ignored such a personal request… but it turns out that Lord Camburgh Soseong came with a fairly grounded story.”

The Archmage doesn’t seem very happy about this quest.

I think it’s because I’m the one who caused the accident, and it also seems like it’s because this quest is seemingly a personal matter (love affair).

“I heard that in the letters exchanged with Lord Ednium Soseong, a request for help was made in slang. “And that too with animal fur enclosed.”

Well, I don’t think much about love issues because it’s a common quest topic.

After all, every gamer has played the role of a dispatcher at least once, right? What is a messenger? Sometimes, there are situations where you have to go out of your way to save the gift itself.

“The problem is that, according to So Seong-ju, Ednium So Seong-ju has an allergy to animals. “That’s pretty severe, too.”

But if it’s a concept, I definitely think I’ll hate this job more than the Archmage. Wouldn’t the reaction be, “Why should I do something like that?”

“So I don’t allow animals to get close to me, and the people in the castle are careful not to let birds or cats into the castle… Isn’t that strange? A person with severe allergies sent a letter with animal fur enclosed, saying, “It’s the fur of a cat that often visits these days.” Moreover, they are using slang to indicate that it is a crisis situation.”

In that respect, this explanation is not bad.

It smelled like it could be a relationship issue or something. I guess that’s why the Archmage accepted it.

“Does Lord Ednium have any information about the beast situation in Camburgh?”

“I can’t be sure. However, since it is rare for a person to behave differently from usual without a reason, I think there is a good possibility. Even if there isn’t one, it doesn’t matter. “We had to search every direction to find the source of the magical beast.”

“I don’t know what Berserk is talking about. So, can I go?”

“For now, yes.”

“I still haven’t been able to catch the tail of the abominable bastard who showed up this time…”

When the consensus seemed to be on ‘Let’s go to Ednium,’ the Inquisitor slightly furrowed his eyebrows. In my opinion, there was no need to be so indignant.

Honestly, if this is the situation, I think it will come out on its own as soon as I get to Ednium.

To chime in with a common cliché, is it true that Ednium’s castle lord’s family are bad guys and that the devil who joined hands with them is the guy who tricked me this time?

Or, the Ednium castle lord’s family may be innocent, but there is a shady group, and they may be in league with the temple invaders.

“They leave it to these people for now. “Didn’t the Inquisitor himself reveal that there were no traitors in the temple?”

“…yes. That’s right. “You have to trust them.”

But one thing is certain.

The point is that you can catch its tail in Ednium. Not here.

“Then you are going to Ednium in the end…”

As the story reached its conclusion, the person who had been silent until now finally spoke. It was Dev.

“I guess so. “Is there any problem?”

“No, it’s not a problem.”

“…If you have any concerns, please tell me. “I may be missing something.”

“I don’t think it’s like that.”

…Now that I think about it, wasn’t there a conversation similar to this when we left Hudelen? Even then, Dev asked me if I wasn’t going to Ednium.

Do you have any bad memories of Ednium?

“Really?”

For a moment, I thought of the story of the thief in the original.

I don’t know if Dev’s past history matches that, but if it is similar, Ednium will definitely be reluctant.

“You don’t have to put up with it because of us. If you don’t want to go, just…”

“Oh, you said no!”

It must be a place where someone who was like family was lost.

“you….”

“…!”

Was this the first time Dev raised his voice in anger toward the group? Thanks to this, the atmosphere immediately became cold.

The Inquisitor’s eyes were wide and even the Archmage looked quite embarrassed.

Berserker is… Let’s leave that aside. Because he was yawning with his face in his arms.

“…I say no, but why do you keep asking?”

The person who was actually angry was also very rude.

Dev didn’t seem to have any intention of reacting this emotionally, so he urgently lowered his voice and added hesitantly. It didn’t have much effect.

Grumble.

In the end, Dev ran out of the room.

“…That Mangjong?! Or is it not? Why are you yelling…!”

As a result, those who were dumbfounded were able to speak again. The evidence is that the Inquisitor escaped his embarrassment and cast ‘Why is he like that?’

“Now, now, Inquisitor. “I said no, but why did I raise my voice?”

“Is there a reason? Then just say it…”

“I explained to you that everyone in the world has a secret they don’t want to reveal to others, right?”

“That’s…”

What should I do with this?

A mature child will recover on his own if you give him some alone time, but I think it would be better for Dev to follow someone around and give him a pat and comfort him.

However, the personality Archmage is the one who lit the fuse. In addition, the Inquisitor is focusing on training to prevent further fires.

Then me? Would a concept like this be acceptable?

“Big.”

Berserker is even half asleep. I don’t think comfort or anything is possible.

It was a very messy party.

Leviathan narrowed his eyes at the person Pandemonium had connected to. The snake wrapped around the shoulder and neck is sticking out its tongue and quietly complaining.

It’s time to get hungry, and I guess I really don’t like the idea of not being able to eat even though there are people in front of me who are good to eat.

[Just be patient. If that human doesn’t come up with an answer I like, I’ll hand it over to you.]

However, I also find it unpleasant to be in front of humans.

Leviathan made a subtle threat, pretending to begrudge his familiar. The human who was listening quietly smiled brightly.

He was a man with a lot of guts.

[So what do I want?]

“Here it is.”

Still, if you got what you wanted, I’m willing to look at it.

Leviathan accepted what the human offered. The first was a tightly sealed bottle made of metal, and the second was a bundle of paper.

[You brought it well.]

The price you paid for it is a lot, but I never thought it would be airlifted in just one day. In particular, you would have had to cross the desert and face Sloth to obtain the Nightmare Piece.

“Credibility is what we are all proud of.”

[Nonsense.]

There are few things as worthless as credit in the face of desire. Leviathan snorted and picked up the second one.

This one was also quite surprising. If you only gave me one day, I wouldn’t have brought you a bundle of paper this thick.

It was shallow enough to fully understand someone’s life, but thick enough to get the information he wanted.

Leviathan’s face became satisfied.

[Take the price.]

However, if you get what you want, you have to pay the price you deserve. Leviathan raised his hand and cupped his eyes.

Hood crackle.

Soon water droplets fell from my eyes. The moment they flowed, the tears hardened with a brilliant color like pearls.

Known to the world as the tears shed by Mermen, it was also a gem made only from the eyes of the Great Devil.

[This concludes the transaction.]

“Confirmed.”

Once tears start to flow, they do not easily stop even if you do not want them to.

Leviathan continued to let the gems form, taking the bottle and turning over the paper in his hand.

In the meantime, humans recovered the tear jewels he shed.

“Could it be that that human was chosen to be the next knight?”

But how much paper did you go through? The human who recovered all the jewels carefully asked questions.

Leviathan’s eyebrows rose.

[I didn’t allow you to ask questions. It’s so bold.]

“I think they’ll allow it if it’s ‘jealousy’ like this.”

Sheek.

There is a difference between boldness and ignorance. That’s why the snake stuck out its tongue as if asking to be allowed to eat it right away…

[You’re right.]

Leviathan didn’t like seeing things like that.

Whether it’s the desire for power or something else, isn’t jealousy, the act of envying and keeping others in check in order not to have what you have taken away, so base and more vivid than anything else?

[I’m generous, so I’ll allow you to keep in check.]

Of course, due to the type of emotion, there are often times when we cooperate or fight with Pandemonium over talent, but… a good thing is a good thing.

They were able to get to this point because there were people who were honest about their emotions to the point of being naked.

[Besides, something like this is unlikely to be selected as an article.]

“As expected.”

So Leviathan personally gave the answer. It was just a little bit of kindness.

The human looked subtly relieved.

[Why are you anxious that this thing will overtake you and be nominated as a knight?]

“You mean impatience… Is it possible?”

[Stop telling embarrassing lies. Unless you have forgotten what kind of devil I am.]

The desire clearly visible in both eyes belongs to someone who has been chosen by the Great Devil to become the 72nd Knight.

If that was all, it would be none of my business, but such desires are usually accompanied by jealousy toward those who took power before oneself.

[It’s a shame… If your jealousy was greater than your greed, I would have put you under me.]

“It’s an honor.”

I feel like I want to incite more jealousy, but I don’t want to make a knight out of someone I don’t like just to play with a human.

I don’t want to cause discord with Pandemonium just to get something like that.

[Just try to do well. I don’t know how far you can go.]

So Leviathan put down the paper he had read until the end, quietly putting aside his possessiveness.

[I have a piece of advice for you who like me.]

Grumble.

The brazier that was heating the air in the middle of the desk swallowed up the paper.

[Don’t forget that your master is also a devil full of desire.]

There were many interesting and interesting things about this place, as if it were an upper level created by greedy people.

Should I say that I am fortunate? When evening came, Dev came back with a normal face.

He must have come to his senses properly and apologized to the Archmage. Rather than receiving the apology, the Archmage apologized, saying he was more at fault.

And the evening passed and night became night, and the night passed again and the sun rose.

We set off for Ednium. The place to go for him is Baekmyo Ridge, where he spent the night before.

“It seems like wild beasts are appearing more frequently.”

However, as the Archmage said, it felt like the number of beasts had definitely increased.

Even just thinking about the night before yesterday, I am certain. Except for the last time it came out, there were fewer attacks that time.

“…It’s a little strange, isn’t it? “If you come out more at night, you come out, but it doesn’t make sense to come out more during the day.”

“Is there less than this at night?”

“Yes.”

“That’s bizarre.”

Every event has a cause. This is especially true if it is a work of nature rather than a human work.

Rain clouds are created because water evaporates due to solar heat and becomes water vapor, and wind blows because of convection.

“Maybe it has something to do with the fact that you were suddenly attacked by a group.”

“Is the devil controlling it behind the scenes?”

“It’s not impossible.”

The Archmage summoned a chain with his finger and tied up several wildcats. Behind her, the horses are barely holding on without running amok.

“Or maybe there is another problem.”

“That’s right—.”

Pow!

“—That’s right!”

With her assistance, the Inquisitor swung the mace like a bat. Instead of a baseball, an animal’s body flew out.

“Wow! “What if you shoot at me!”

“Oh, that’s a mistake.”

“Is it all just a mistake!?”

Dev didn’t play either. He dodged the dead body of Seungnyang that fluttered towards him and dealt damage by throwing a dagger.

The skill was so good that most of the time, the blade got stuck in a vital part, such as the head.

Wajikkeun!

“Khaha! die!”

“…The warrior Nari was very excited.”

“Hahahaha!!”

Well, is it finally coming to an end? I avoided the tree that Berserker knocked down and cut down the last wild cat.

For the sake of hygiene and hygiene, I cut while trying to avoid blood as much as possible—after killing so many people, I started to get a sense of where to cut so that blood would not splatter—and compared to the surroundings, I ended up in a particularly clean situation.

Even so, the horses probably hate me the most.

I think it was okay in the beginning, but I wonder why I’m the only one avoiding it as the days go by.

It’s okay for those who want to use me as food, but herbivores like horses hate me, which makes me a little sad.

Is it because of the smell of blood? Is it also the smell of blood?

“Is it over now?”

“hmm! “It was perfect as a pre-dinner workout!”

“Because you think it’s natural that we’ll eat.”

“The sun came overhead. “Then shouldn’t we have lunch?”

“hmm? Oh, is it noon already?”

“Right. It was definitely time to eat. Still, how about changing seats? “You can’t eat from a place where blood has dried.”

“What’s wrong with the blood? “I don’t know much about Berserk.”

“…I think it would be bothersome if more animals came in after smelling the blood. If you get attacked while eating, wouldn’t the food be ruined? “Horses are also dangerous.”

“aha.”

Separately, if it seems like the Archmage has slowly learned the trick of persuading Berserker, is it because of his mood?

Of course, Berserker was surprisingly easy to handle.

Is it because of a simple and linear way of thinking? If you explain it logically, most people will understand.

Sometimes, when I get caught up in something—mostly a fight—the problem is that persuasion doesn’t work.

“Then let’s find the price.”

“Please.”

Anyway, this almost confirmed my break.

I wiped the blood off the sword and put it in its sheath. click. My ankle spun with a faint noise.

Sigh.

As if replacing him, the fog that did not go away until noon wrapped around my ankles in a hazy haze. It wasn’t so much that you couldn’t see an inch in front of you, but it was a haze that blocked out dozens of meters ahead.

“Ugh, this damn fog shows no signs of abating.”

“I won’t push you this time.”

“I’m not even asking you to push it now. Just do it later when you eat.”

When it appears in novels, comics, or games, it seems like it will always carry at least one negative thing, whether it’s poison or an enemy.
