Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? Chapter 367

Episode 367: Knowing each step (1)

[What are you doing? Without completing it.]

The wizard looked up blankly at Mephistopheles, whether the mask was broken or not. Mephisto was similar. She did not go out of her way to avoid the gaze directed at her.

[Or is this your first time seeing the devil?]

“…How.”

[But you’re foolish, you’d better move quickly.]

On the contrary, she kindly bowed. Only then did I make eye contact with the wizard crouching on the floor. Sigh. The outstretched leather-gloved hand stopped under the wizard’s chin, separated by a piece of paper.

[If the hero falls, you die.]

“…!!”

Also, the lower body exposed by the broken mask pursed its pretty lips. Anger, frustration, defeat, humiliation. Fragmentary emotions passed over my white lips and quickly disappeared.

“…don’t you know how to do it?”

[Unfortunately, I have little knowledge of magic.]

“The name ‘Great Devil’ is a waste.”

[If you’re aiming for provocation, that’s bad.]

Hmph. The person who snorted raised a knife. Sigh. The sword stuck in the ground has only one meaning. The engraving of the magic circle was resumed.

[I never thought I would spend my life following and protecting others. [Life is truly unknown.]

Mephisto, who was catching a glimpse of it, grabbed the chain in his hand with one hand. Grumble. The chain, which was long enough to cut into pieces with a radius of several tens of meters, had already shrunk to a length of about 30 centimeters.

Creeping. The dust that had been restored showed signs of moving again.

“Let go of this…!”

[And you’ve been protesting pointlessly since earlier… Why don’t you stop? I’m not wearing you because I want to?]

Mephistopheles observed them one by one and took off his right glove. Fingers as black as charcoal touched the air and lifted the chain on his left hand. At one end of the chain, a hook that was easy to hang on a finger fit comfortably into the index finger for its intended purpose.

Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeess The shorter chain began to turn, making a much harsher sound. The finger-sized blade at the end leaves a much darker trace in the air compared to the thin chain.

“On the subject of the devil…!”

[It is none of my business whether you live or die, but what can I do when dear Gretchen is very interested in your life or death? I don’t want to be hated by him anymore.]

And in an instant, a chain was shot straight ahead. Sigh. As it spreads out, its length increases to tens of meters, and there is only one thing it aims for.

In an instant, his wrist drew a circle three or four times, and the chain wrapped around his entire palm, and in that state, he swung it with great force to the right. A second horizon was carved in the air. [I

‘m tired of being locked up in a tiny prison.] 「Stop

talking nonsense

before they rip my ribs off

.」

The chain was not removed.

Considering that dear Grethen will maintain and add to her magic circle, the amount she can use is truly limited. Once you change Ratel, you have to extract the same amount of Magi that was put into it.

[I don’t know if my limbs are cut off while struggling?]

“…!”

Mephisto gave a light warning to the heretic interrogator and moved the chain. The chain, which resembled a series of short straight lines rather than long curves, bounced unnaturally.

This happened to the immediate left of the Harleup puppy, which had been restrained with a fur cape to prevent it from wandering around and dying. The soaring chain moved forward again in a semicircle, narrowly missing the puppy’s hand.

[The wizard bows.]

“There is no point in being an escort.”

[What do you want from the devil?]

But he never hits the ground. Mephisto, who adjusted the direction of the chain to be close to horizontal by subtle adjustment of the angle, split the world on the left this time.

[If it hadn’t been for Gretchen, you would have already died.]

She stretched out her left hand and gently tangled the chain in the air. Okay. At the same time, his right hand pulled strongly as if he was going to retrieve the chain. The chain that was rough in her left hand floated around her like a spun thread.

[Is it further than that?]

Mephisto adjusted the length of the chain with his right hand and re-determined the direction and swing strength with his left hand. Okay. The blade advanced and crushed the tentacle that was just approaching.

As the power to block the monster’s true body weakened, it ended up jumping out.

[The body is slowly moving.]

It looks like the hero is at an end. Mephistopheles narrowed his eyes and smiled. It was a smile that seemed more like a mask worn as a habit rather than an expression of emotion.

“Representative…!”

[It would be great if I could throw away at least one thing.]

She glanced around with that faint smile on her face. Although the division of labor was suggested because it seemed promising, the first thing that caught my eye was the magic that was controlled with such terrifying precision. It was truly an amazing talent.

The sense of space and the unusual use of ratel and inventory are certainly excellent, but even if you put all of them together, you might think it’s not as good as this.

[Then life will become much easier.]

‘If you’ve forgotten the terms of the transaction, tell me quickly.’

[Is that possible? There is no need to worry because I remember.]

But even Gretchen lacks something.

[As I said before, I don’t want to be hated by you anymore.]

For example… something like an experience honed hundreds or thousands of times, or a murderous intention to kill the other person at any cost.

This means that he does not have that viciousness that comes with the sole intention of tearing the opponent to pieces and killing him, rather than simply to escape or end the situation.

[Separately, you have to deal with a powerful enemy with a small amount of demonic energy.]

So he is weak. The idea that arises from persistent hostility and the desire to kill is more effective and vicious than anything else in the world, but he is weak because he cannot establish the prerequisites for it.

[It’s unpleasant.]

That’s why I’m annoyed.

[I didn’t want to go through that again.]

If he hadn’t been able to use her power as he wanted, he would have ended up not being able to protect anything or throwing away something important.

I would have ended up stuck in the mud like her.

Because I was unnecessarily lucky.

[Consider it an honor, little girl.]

Mephisto lifted his heel and put pressure on the tips of his toes. Jiik. As soon as the snow was pushed away, the body embracing her leapt powerfully. It was a leap that made the chain click and follow her.

“Wow!”

I could hear someone wrapped in a fur cloak vomiting due to abdominal pressure and dizziness, but that didn’t matter. She rewound the chain again and again with her right hand, adjusting the overall length of the chain.

And when the chain on her left hand shrunk to about 1m, her left hand began to rotate the chain round and round.

[You are protected by me as a priest of Ishin.]

Her feet landed on the ground near the Inquisitor. At the same time, her arm threw forward the chain she was spinning. An extra chain that was intentionally left hanging behind the back between the left and right hands was included.

Do it yourself!

The blade pierced dozens of tentacles and dragged them along. Before I knew it, the dagger at the end of the chain had changed into a ring shape. The tentacles that had been caught like fish on a needle changed direction and started targeting her.

Sigh!

At that moment, Mephisto released the chains wrapped around his right palm. A long chain coiled like a snake appeared between the left and right hands that maintained the pulling force on the chain.

[Hold up the little shield.]

She randomly threw the chain that looked like that into the air like a fisherman spreading a net. Her feet hit the ground at the same time, avoiding the tentacle’s expected impact point.

Cherrrrrr. The chains floating in the air wrapped around the bundle of tentacles exactly as expected. The tentacles that divide and create new ones are still slow and cannot catch her in the air.

Sigh! She tied the bundle by applying strength to both hands holding the chain, then cut the bundle as if tearing it apart. Jiik. Her light feet, like those of a ballet dancer, lightly touched the floor, and the split, unbound tentacles came as close to her as possible.

Peeeeee!

However, the moment she flexibly twisted her body and spun the chain held by her left hand like a top, they were shattered to pieces. The uselessness becomes even more intense because Mephisto jumped to another location as soon as his feet touched the ground.

She followed orders and dutifully stepped behind the raised shield.

[Good.]

“….”

Of course, the Inquisitor’s expression was not good just because he followed orders. Although she did her best to block the real monster, the adventurer’s hair color also informed her of the current situation.

bang!

But what does one know about the warrior’s expression?

Mephisto blocked the tentacle that came after her with his shield and kicked the shield before the tentacle came in along the edge of the shield. The shield was pushed away along with the tentacles.

Sigh!

At the same time, her chain flew far and wide. The target is the dust of the universe targeting the wizard. Dozens of pieces of fog were pierced and torn apart by the elegant workmanship, stopping the movement.

[How about trying a little more strength at this time? I’m going to get pierced like this.]

However, just because I gained a little time with the shield, that doesn’t mean everything here has been resolved. The tentacle that passed the shield was already right around the corner, and Mephisto had nothing to fight against.

“Oh God!”

In the end, the Inquisitor vomited blood and further increased his divine power. When I saw that, the little boy in my head whined, but it didn’t really bother me. Surprisingly, this was Mephisto’s best.

[Hang it.]

I thought it would be possible to recover anyway, so I was just going to move on to the next move while giving up my shoulder or leg… but thanks to the hero, I didn’t have to take any damage. She smiled slightly at the sacred power that could not reach her body thanks to the divine power filter.

“Your praise….”

[There’s no need for it. okay. Because I know, I did it.]

In any case, it is inefficient to continue to hold on to this position. As long as the hero has reached his limit, Jinche will not be able to stop it anyway.

If so, the correct answer would be to join a wizard and reduce the scope of the guard. She extended another hem of her cloak and wrapped it around the Inquisitor.

“Huh?!”

[Stay calm. Wouldn’t that make Gretchen praise you?]

The other one… fortunately or unfortunately, was completely stunned. Well, it did move quite roughly.

Mephistopheles smiled and leaped again without a trace of guilt. “Puhup!” At the same time the Inquisitor coughed, a sound like a window cracking was heard from the monster.

Wow!

The monster suppressed by divine power began to move.

[Ah, be scared.]

I didn’t want to deal with the space wolf even in hell, but somehow it ended up like this.

She swung the chain, channeling her discomfort and annoyance into laughter. The curvature of the tail, which was closer to that of a scorpion’s tail than that of a snake, once again protected the wizard.

[It would be better to increase the speed.]

I know that progress has gained momentum as the interruption has disappeared. But that’s not enough. Mephistopheles tightened his grip on the chain as the wolf licked his skin.

[It looks like the sun-eating wolf is very angry right now.]

Kyaaaaa!

The moment the wolf howled, its fur rose up and some of it fell off. If you look closely, the hair that falls off in a rustling manner instead of fluttering has a shape that resembles a leech.

There were hundreds and thousands of leeches.

Wow!

And when all the leeches gathered together in one place, they took the form of some kind of animal and started running across the snow. It was a wolf that gnaws and corrodes everything it touches.

[Go and help complete the magic circle.]

The hem of Mephistopheles’ cloak threw the two towards the wizard and changed Ratel’s form.

Quang!

The huge shield resembling a fan clashed with the leech wolf.

* * *

Deathbringer quickly got up and approached the huge dragon. The dead dragon didn’t even show the slightest reaction to his approach.

“This….”

How can I save this?

At that point, Deathbringer faced a real problem. How on earth does heart return take place? I had forgotten that I had heard about it from Suzaku. His face turned pale.

“Can I just take it out…?”

Is it a structure that automatically returns if you just take it out? I hope so. If something magical or something is needed, I don’t know how to do it at all!

“Please just be okay.”

With difficulty, he untied the cloth that bound the sword to his hand. Then, I carefully took out the bracelet that I brought with me, which was more precious than my heart, in case I lost it.

The bracelet, which is composed of an octagonal chain, looks like a snake made of metal. Deathbringer’s neck moved up and down.

“What I want to bring up is…”

Before he could finish his words, magical energy I didn’t know I had was consumed.

Flashing

“Watsi.”

Of course, due to a talent problem, he couldn’t even feel the presence of the magic power being consumed, but instead he saw something else. Something sparkled in the clearing next to him.

Surprise! My body instinctively flinched, thinking it was an enemy, but relaxed slightly when I realized what it was.

What appeared was a body that had not even been properly placed in a coffin.
