Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? Chapter 357

Episode 357: Left eye won’t open (5)

Berserk saw a land of ice created when the snow melted and then froze again. The smooth snow ice is as white as snow, but clumped together so tightly that it cannot be scooped out.

Something that nature could never have created.

widely.

Berserk held his weapon tightly and looked at the huge curve carved in front of the village.

A footprint shaped like Y with one more branch added. A pit dug so that the fan shape and the oval meet. Snow was swept away on both sides of the pit… or pushed out? Anyway, such artificial marks.

It’s hard to believe, but just looking at the shape of the trace, it looks like a bird has landed. It’s a huge bird that looks like it’s connected to several houses, and its body temperature is hot enough to instantly melt the snow.

“…under.”

But did such a beast really exist on this earth? As far as she knew, it would never happen. Beings with characteristics that fit this hypothesis must be nesting further south than this land.

“….”

…done. Whatever it is, it’s probably good. What is important is not the cause of the incident, but the impact this variable will have.

With that in mind, she quietly approached the village. The walk with the heel raised is stealthy and agile, like that of a cat.

Heeeeeeee.

Purr.

“…?”

However, in the next moment, Berserk could not help but be embarrassed. This is why, even though I was an experienced hunter and warrior, I never imagined that I could hear a cry like this here.

Anyway, this was an environment in which horses could not possibly survive.

“Uh, why are you like that? “Whoa, calm down.”

“Bauti, these guys are suddenly strange! “What should I do with this?”

“I don’t know… Maybe it’s a reindeer, but it’s my first time with a horse…”

…Even the humans next to me didn’t know how to take care of a horse. At least it’s clear that they didn’t bring the horse.

Sigh.

What on earth? Berserk gave up immediate action due to an incomprehensible phenomenon. Instead, her body climbed over the wall and onto the roof of a modest home. The body, which is lowered like a flat insect, blends well into the tree roof thanks to its brown fur.

Hehehe.

“Aren’t you doing this because you’re hungry?”

“…Oh, I guess that’s not true. “How long has it been since you fed me?”

Purr purr.

Hehehe.

“But they said! “If you cry like this, it makes them uncomfortable!”

“That’s right. But it’s not even time to eat yet…!”

While she was settling down like that, the two people who had been acting like idiots raised their white flag, saying, ‘I don’t know.’

“Let’s just ask him, Bauti.”

“Oh, no!”

“But didn’t Bautiya say he didn’t know what to do?”

“Yeah, that’s true, but. “If we tell him, he’ll kill us!”

Looks like there are more people. Berserk took my mind off the horses and idiots and took my mind off the other side. Two more signs were felt in the otherwise intact building.

“Gainir, you saw it too! “I was beaten like a crushed herb!”

“Okay.”

“Do you want to be hit like that too?!”

“Not really… but… what if the others come back and get angry?”

So, are there four humans and four horses in this village right now? Judging from the conversation, it seems like there are some people who are not present.

“The Heretic Questioner’s fist hurt a lot… I don’t even want to get hit by it…”

“But he doesn’t beat up like he’s going to kill you!”

“But…”

However, if the personnel who were away return, it becomes difficult to subdue them. Because numbers are sometimes power.

“I hate it because if I say something wrong, I feel like I’m going to die instead of just getting beaten up.”

“Oh.”

“Pamir also said. “If there is a problem, don’t hide it and report it quickly.”

Should we all kneel now? I don’t think it would be difficult if it were just those things.

“Okay, okay, okay. Let’s turn ourselves in and find light. “Sigh.”

“Bauti, cheer up.”

“Don’t laugh, you bastard. “Do you think I’m the only one who will get scolded?”

Berserk wondered whether or not these might be related to the traces carved out there.

The presence of words that cannot be here and those who express their fear. The decision was made quickly.

“Okay… okay. The human in there has a tingling sense of humanity. It wouldn’t be hard to be beaten by a steel man wearing thinner clothes than a Nordine in this cold weather—”

Berserk landed behind them the moment the two idiots came out of the simple stable to report. Pow! Before the two idiots could turn their heads after hearing the sound of landing, the blade of her hand exploded on the back of their necks.

Flutter.

The portraits of two people fell on the snow covered with dust.

Heeeeeee!

Hehehehe!!

“hmm.”

At the same time, the horses in the stable were in an uproar. Even though it happened just outside the wall, it seemed like they were aware of the incident and took it as a threat. Anyway, it was a beast known for its sensitivity.

“Hey, you bastards. “Are you not speaking properly?”

However, it doesn’t matter if you get caught because of this. Because I have enough confidence to subdue it. Berserk greeted the new character who burst through the door with such confidence.

“uh?”

“…you.”

“A person who used to be a member of the warrior’s group. Right?”

“right. “But why are you here?”

“Ah… what should I say about this?”

In the end, it was a pretty good choice since I didn’t have to surprise any familiar faces.

“It’s a bit long to say it all, but I came looking for you.”

“me…?”

Although it was a slightly… no, a bit too unexpected meeting.

“Not me, to be exact, but an adventurer… a demon knight found you. “I just went out for a little while.”

“…Demon Knight.”

Meanwhile, Meister was just as embarrassed as he was. That’s because he didn’t even expect to see the person he was looking for here.

Well, if we could predict such coincidences, it would no longer be the realm of reasoning or intelligence, but the power of prophecy.

“Yeah, that guy.”

But timing is truly a work of art. They came to see me exactly how long it had been since they left.

“I thought you were wanted. Things seem to have improved a lot. “As long as you find me.”

“Well, that’s right. “Somehow, all the false accusations were cleared.”

“is it. That’s a good thing. “But why on earth is he looking for me?”

“Oh, what did you say? “Did you have to pay something back?”

“He doesn’t owe me anything.”

“That’s from your perspective and from his perspective…yeah. “I guess I felt like I owed myself for destroying the weapon.”

The Meister lowered his gaze slightly as he said that. Two guys lying on the floor motionless. And the words still cry.

“Hey you.”

“Did you call me?”

He raised his voice and called the guy working inside. A human being who was busy cleaning up the basement stuck his head out with a sad look on his face.

“Come out and move the two passed out guys inside. “I’m taking care of the horses instead.”

“yes??”

The guy who had been polite and polite at every moment since the Meister stayed here asked him a question for the first time. Even though he looked at me so intently, I took it down right away.

“Let’s move inside. “There’s no need to have a conversation in the cold wind.”

“okay.”

While the bastard was taking care of his friends, Meister led Berserk inside. Perhaps Berserk was also curious about this situation and did not reject his offer.

“But I also have company. “Can I bring it with me?”

“As long as it’s not someone who wants to talk to you.”

“Don’t worry. Not only is he not that type of kid, but if he shows up like that, I will crush his head myself.”

“It’s reassuring.”

Instead, Berserk also brought his own party. If an adventurer had seen her, she was a girl of an age where she would have taken out the candy first.

“Oh hello.”

“Don’t touch things arbitrarily.”

“Yes…”

But he was an adventurer, and the Meister didn’t bother to give him something to eat.

Not only did we not like children, but we also didn’t have enough food to begin with. Roughly… If those who went to the North don’t return within 10 days, there will be big trouble.

“There’s a lot.”

“There is no need to waste limited time.”

“Well, you were a craftsman.”

I stayed for Suzaku’s recommendation – it could be dangerous – and rationality – I can’t even fight, so I just stay and watch over those bastards.

Even though it’s just surveillance, isn’t it a situation where you have to pay attention every minute and every second?

All the tools lying around inside were because of that. With the time he had left, he planned to do at least some research. Although it was interrupted for a while thanks to Berserk’s unexpected visit.

“so. Did the devil knight say that? “You want to ask me for the price of my weapon?”

“To summarize.”

“Well, that happened in a legitimate sparring, so there is absolutely no reason for him to be responsible.”

“What is it, that bastard? Are you saying it was your fault that you ate it in Dalian? “Anyway, I’m being stubborn.”

It is an unwritten rule that in sparring conducted by mutual agreement, the other party is not held responsible for whatever happens within it. But to try to take it again… It was like a man, like a man.

“But still take it. “If you refuse, that kid will be very concerned.”

“So I deserve it…”

“Don’t hate it. But did I say it clearly? “I’m sure that kid will be very concerned.”

It hasn’t even happened yet, but I can already imagine it. The sight of him trying desperately to give me a gift.

“Is that your weapon?”

And in the end, the one who wins will be that kid. If they just reject it because they don’t deserve it, they can just come up with a new excuse like, ‘Then it’s a gift to a comrade who was once with us.’

“I think there’s a spell. that’s right?”

“okay.”

“Can I take a look?”

“Is it the craftsman’s curiosity? do whatever you want. “As long as you don’t break it.”

In that case, it is inevitable that you will eventually obtain the weapon of this large warrior. And he will definitely be in charge of that weapon. Because of the nature of adventurers, there is no way to give something cheap, like a ready-made product, to someone who is indebted to you.

“It looks a little small compared to your size.”

“Because I chose something that was already made.”

“I guess you didn’t have enough money?”

“It wasn’t something I bought with money to begin with.”

Of course, just because you won’t give him a ready-made product doesn’t guarantee that he will take it. Let alone it being discussed in advance, I have never even heard a hint of such nuance.

“Oh, exchange?”

“It would be closer to compensation than exchange.”

“What did you do to the magic tower?”

“Some idiot dared to use me as an experiment.”

But honestly, would you really want someone else with the world’s greatest general right next to you? Who else but an adventurer would do such an inefficient, irrational, and stupid thing?

“…I did something stupid. so?”

“They broke my limbs and crushed my internal organs.”

“What about dying? Did you confirm that he died? Life wizards are capable of self-healing, so their lives are quite tough.”

“Don’t worry. “The other humans who escaped with me smashed his skull with all kinds of tools and disintegrated his skin and muscles.”

So, what he takes on is no different from a given task.

Meister recorded Berserk’s personal information in his head with such grounded confidence. I almost suffered from some trauma in the process, but what the other person did was so pleasant that I immediately felt better. He promised to pay more attention when making Berserk’s weapons.

“Then that’s enough. “You’re pretty good.”

Aside from that, it seems like his skills are better than I thought. Considering that he didn’t escape alone, but that other people escaped as well, it means that he went to the wizard’s workshop—there’s no way he would have kept humans somewhere else—but it’s usually not easy to destroy the wizard in the workshop.

“Rather, if you received it as a reward, the type of weapon would be different from the one you originally used, right?”

“I don’t choose a weapon and use it.”

“Still, aren’t there some weapons that are particularly easy to use?”

“…well. As long as the pole of the spear is long and the blade is straight, it is probably good. Even if it’s not, I can’t use it.”

It is a weapon with a long spear. Meister looked back on his memories and wondered what weapon this man was holding at the time of Bemurchen.

I think it was roughly a halberd… The weapon he received as compensation was an axe, and the weapon he used before was a halberd, so he seems to have a preference for it.

In this way, Meister confirmed the taste he denied.

“The question is, is it over? “If you do, I’ll ask.”

“It’s not over yet, but… feel free.”

“First of all, where did the demon knight go?”

“I have something to do at the end of the world, so I’m going there for a moment.”

“Right.”

Once the type of weapon was decided, a design naturally came to mind.

It seems to prefer power over finesse, so I think the blade could be a little larger… Since it seems to have good power, it would be okay to have blades on both sides. However, if this happens, the spear will not be able to support the weight, so the material of the spear…

“Then, did you give that bracelet to the demon knight when he was away?”

While he was drawing up the blueprint in his head, Berserk paid attention to his wrist for a moment. The exact place where her eyes fell was the bone fragment bracelet lent to her by the demon knight.

“You recognized it right away?”

“Because it’s a form used by known tribes. “I think I know why I gave it to you.”

“Oh… the person who lent it to me was skeptical about its effectiveness. “I guess it has no meaning at all?”

“well. “If we encounter one, I can at least save my life.”

“Oh, that’s exactly it.”

Meister easily understood the parts that Berserk omitted. When you say that you can save your life when faced with it, when you turn it around, it means that you can’t guarantee anything other than your life.

“Where is it?”

“okay. “That is also true.”

But there is something about having your life guaranteed. Rather than losing both your goods and your life, it is better to be able to save the latter.

The devil knight didn’t just tell you to keep it for insurance purposes.

“…If your curiosity is resolved, continue asking questions. Traces of the snow outside melting and refreezing. Does that also have something to do with demon knights?”

“Why is that?”

“I guess there’s a connection. “Did a demon knight do it?”

“no. “He didn’t do it.”

“Then who did it?”

Separately, the topic has changed drastically.

The Meister put his hands together for a moment regarding the Berserk question. He didn’t seem to be interested in the Demon Knight’s goals at all, but his attitude suddenly changed. What is this sign and intention?

“Why do you need to know that?”

Berserk is the warrior’s former companion, but that’s it. Now that Suzaku has joined, Ii’s existence has not become essential.

So, instead of blindly showing trust in that brief relationship, Meister crossed his legs and entered into negotiations. The woman, who was a head taller than her, narrowed her eyes.

“I am looking for something here. But lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of strange traces like that. “These are traces that must have been applied by the power of some being that could never come out naturally.”

“so?”

“It looks like you have no intention of telling me the details. Then answer at least this. Is it against me?”

“It depends on what you’re looking for, right?”

“…What I’m looking for are the remains of a family member who died decades ago.”

“Oh… Then why?”

After a brief thought, the Meister lowered his head. I wonder if I really had to do such a crazy thing… but anyway, the search itself didn’t seem to be a problem.

Could it be that her family, who died decades ago from cancer, were among those who should be returned to the dragon? Unless you’re extremely unlucky, that’s unlikely.

“Okay, that’s it.”

“Is that the end of the question?”

“okay.”

So the Meister left Berserk alone, relieved.

Since the weight of the hero’s request is heavy, the label ‘former warrior’s party’ alone is uneasy, and if this amazing coincidence really coincides, there is no way to know what will come out on the other side, etc. There are many reasons that justified his silence.

Well, if I had to choose the most decisive one among the many reasons, the biggest would be the ‘tireness of talking’ and the ‘no sense of loyalty to risk it all and say it’.
