Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? Chapter 429

Episode 429 Declare Now (2)

“We’ve finally arrived.”

Klaus, the Sapphire Knight. Instead of answering the words of Jardin, the knight dispatched with him, he just nodded.

“…It exists, right?”

“Don’t doubt it, newbie.”

At the same time, he urged his horse towards the city gates, which were getting closer and closer. As I approached the gate, step by step, the people who had already been waiting in line came into view.

“We have been given a command, and we just have to carry out the command when we receive it. “Keep in mind that thinking for efficient performance of a mission and doubting a superior’s judgment are completely different things.”

However, such people can be easily defeated by raising just one flag. The two people immediately stood in a position to have their identities checked.

“Something that can prove your identity—”

“This is Kisha, the chief engineer dispatched from Munmund. “Where should I go to see the Lord of Seong?”

“…Give me a moment.”

“Is the person behind him a squire?”

“…This is Zrya, who has been appointed as an official knight of Munmund.”

Background checks in cities located on the front lines are not much different wherever you go. Very strict and thorough. The two waited for a while, holding out their identity cards.

“Confirmed. “Welcome to Lineiro, sir.”

“Where is the castle where the lord of the castle resides?”

“I will assign someone to guide you.”

However, although the wait was long, the decided result did not change. They reached the front of Lineiro Castle with the help of a soldier waiting at the water gate.

“I heard the story. So, um. “I’m here for surveillance.”

The lord of Lineiro’s castle, whom I met for the first time, gave me an untrustworthy impression. The eyes constantly glancing elsewhere and the narrowed shoulders particularly strengthened this feeling.

“They are staying in the magic tower. “I’ll give you a guide to the Magic Tower.”

“I can only appreciate the Lord of Seong’s consideration.”

However, the reason they came here was not for the close alliance between Munmund and Lineiro.

“It’s lunch time, so why don’t I at least eat something…”

“I am truly grateful for the castle lord’s suggestion, but as a knight of Munmund, I have an obligation to give priority to my lord’s orders. sorry.”

Klaus responded to the conversation in a very businesslike and dry manner, and it ended like that. Seongju looked a little sad, but did not offer it a second time.

“Chief engineer, is it okay for me to refuse that?”

“It is said that the current lord of Lineiro is weak and has no talent for leadership, so he leaves most of the work to his lieutenants. Considering him, turning down an offer to eat won’t be a problem.”

“okay.”

“Now that you are a full-fledged knight, you will often be dispatched to other castles. “You should know this much.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

They spoke with only their lips gently pressed so that no sound reached the guide’s ears. Meanwhile, the magic tower, which was said to be close to the castle, was getting closer. It was a place where a traitor was.

“It is impossible for me to guide you inside the Magic Tower. sorry.”

“It doesn’t matter. “Let’s go back now.”

Since an official document has already been sent to the Magic Tower, permission will be granted automatically as time passes. The two knew this and waited quietly without any nervousness.

Quad deuk.

No, it was actually a lie to say that I wasn’t nervous.

Klaus inertially clenched the hand he had placed on the hilt of the sword. There was friction between the hilt of the sword and the leather gloves, making an eerie sound.

“You two are permitted to enter. “Please come inside.”

And finally, the time they had longed for has arrived. The two walked inside, following the wizard’s lead. Suddenly, I felt like I could hear a murmur that couldn’t be blocked by the long hallway and one layer of doors.

…do!

…how about it!

“This is the place.”

Finally, the wizard stopped in front of a huge door. Sigh. Without a moment for Klaus and Jardin to catch their breath, the heat that could not be resolved even with ventilation magic spreads out beyond the open door.

“I should have told you. “Don’t put your dirty hands on me.”

“Oh, I’m sorry. “I was so excited.”

“That wizard! “Check out what this theory is!”

However, the scenery seen through the heat was not what I wanted to see. Klaus’ hand crawled and grabbed the hilt of the sword at his waist.

* * *

“Ah, I’m falling.”

Instead of studying alone in the room of time and mind, I leaned back on a chair. I worked out in the early morning, ate breakfast, and just looked at the magic circle, and it felt like I was going crazy.

“It’s not like I really went back to my senior year of high school….”

No, it was better when I was senior year of high school. They both sucked, but at that time, the fate of the world was not at stake. There were also opportunities for the 2nd and 3rd rounds of luck.

“Ah, but I’m really low on sugar.”

“Then what should I do?”

“I should eat something sweet.”

Well, I want to drink the coffee my dad made. The basic coffee beans were mixed with coconut powder and honey in water and then served with a bucket of ice… It was really delicious. Strangely, it doesn’t taste that good when I ride it, so I couldn’t eat it because I live alone.

“…I miss my father.”

「….」

When I’m busy studying for the college entrance exam, I want to eat the bread pizza and cola that my mom sneakily brought me. Dad’s style of mixed kimchi porridge and Mom’s fried eggplant…

mate!

“Let’s come to our senses.”

are you okay. If I do this, I can go home. If I can do this… I can really go home.

I barely managed to stop myself from becoming depressed and lifted my butt off the chair. It was obvious that I wouldn’t be able to concentrate right away in this state, so I decided to walk lightly and bring some snacks.

“…I’m sorry.”

During that process, I didn’t give any kind of answer. Because I couldn’t say that it was ‘okay’, at least not this much.

“Now that I think about it, there is no cocoa here. “It’s perfect if you have cocoa.”

Cocoa is great in winter. Too bad.

“Do you have anything to do?”

“If it’s okay, can I get you something to eat?”

“Sure!”

As I was disappointed, I grabbed some food at the Magic Tower restaurant. The magic tower rice tasted strangely like jjambap and I didn’t like it… but getting food from outside the magic tower was also a bit weird. The food I received in return still remains in my inventory.

“yes. “Have Meister or Timanuk stopped by the restaurant today?”

“He stopped by this morning…”

“Please take care of theirs too.”

Rather, these kids skipped lunch again.

I was accustomed to taking their share. The commandments were not necessarily worried. Unlike the two who forget time when they are absorbed in something, she is a person who takes care of herself.

Wow!

“you!”

But what happened again? What else is happening?

As I was walking with my lunch box on my head, I heard a bursting noise coming from across the hallway and immediately retrieved my lunch box. At the same time, the body leaps forward and quickly reaches the door of the common laboratory.

“How could you—!”

What? I paused for a moment at the commotion going on in the middle of the lab. I couldn’t help it. Two familiar but unfamiliar faces were confronting each other. And that too with an incredibly bloody atmosphere.

“Calm down, newbie!”

“….”

Still, it doesn’t look like you got stabbed…?

I looked alternately at the reagent bottles on the floor and at the blue-haired man trying to dissuade the young man. Keimyung, who is standing in front of them, has a cold face and does not utter even a single word.

“Let go of this! “I am for that person!!”

“I told you to calm down!”

Well, it seems clear that mediation is necessary regardless of whether or not it goes as far as stabbing. While the center of the commotion is the physical faction, the people involved and the people watching are all weak brains.

“What kind of fuss is this?”

So, if mediation is required, it would be right for me to step in. Right? It’s not a greeting from the Magic Tower, but since they’re not from the Magic Tower either, it’ll be okay.

“…?!”

“…you are.”

“Are you here?”

Rather, where have I seen these people? I’m sure I’ve seen it in other cities.

Thinking that I see a lot of old relationships these days, I headed toward Gyemyeong. As always, the noble and cool woman closed her eyes as soon as she saw that I was approaching.

“explanation.”

“What you see is what it is. “I don’t think there’s anything more to say.”

Look, what you see is the result and what I want is the cause.

“Meister.”

“That brown head suddenly jumped out and swung his sword. That person stopped it. After that, the blue hair took over the brown hair and now it’s the same.”

“Right. “Is anyone hurt?”

“It wasn’t even an attack on me, so how can I get hurt?”

“Tay was hit by a shard of glass.”

“Oh brother.”

“Even if it’s a small wound, a wound is a wound. “It would be better to treat him.”

In particular, if it penetrates deeply into the skin, there is a risk of tetanus. I put the lunch box I brought on a nearby desk and took out the ointment I always keep in my inventory.

“I always wear it when I work, but….”

“But put it on.”

There may be healing magic, but it wouldn’t hurt to have ointment as well. With that intention, I handed it over as if throwing an ointment and looked back at the person who was still breathing heavily.

“Statement of official rank.”

Although he is not from this city, his clothes and posture show that he is at least a soldier. If so, I guess I could ask this.

“Didn’t you hear?”

“…I am Zrya, an official knight of Munmund.”

Is it okay to ask like this? The moment I was about to reconsider, a young man with brown hair and wide ears like a puppy answered. At the same time, his body, which was full of strength, gradually relaxes, allowing the person holding him to release his hand.

“…This is Kisha, the chief engineer dispatched from Munmund. “Please call me Sapphire.”

“If it’s Münmund…”

It was only then that I realized why that young man went on a rampage as soon as he came here. When you see your enemy almost burning down your hometown, you have no choice but to pull out your sword, no matter what.

“…Well, nice to meet you. “I am Job, the adventurer.”

Still, couldn’t you have considered the location? This is the Magic Tower… Of course, they didn’t want to meet us here either.

“Furthermore… I understand your feelings, but I have no choice but to point out that the time and place were not good. In the first place, there must have already been communication about her disposition, right?”

“…I have nothing to say. “It is entirely our responsibility.”

I want to go somewhere else. No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think this is something I should get involved in. It’s really painful to get caught up in someone else’s grudges—and that’s at a level that you can never forgive!

“Is there a problem?”

At that time, the general manager of the Magic Tower descended on the scene. It was liberation.

“I wouldn’t say this as a third party, but I hope you will treat them kindly.”

No, it was not liberation.

I was brought into the office with the knight on the grounds that it would be difficult to stop him if he decided to swing his sword. It was far-fetched, but it wasn’t something to be optimistic about, so I couldn’t even refuse it.

Who knows whether they will go crazy with revenge or not. Even if you could see ten ways underwater, you couldn’t be sure of the inside of a person.

“Do you want me to look at them?”

“I’m not defending them. However… I saw the tragedy that occurred in Munmund with my own eyes, and it was an incident that could never be forgiven. “The story is that they were so angry for a moment that they couldn’t help but understand what was happening… That’s what happened.”

Anyway, like that, I was taken to the side and there I ended up saying a few words.

I couldn’t help it. If, like me, you can’t easily forgive the person who tried to kill your family when you see them, how would they feel?

Even if I can’t stand the fact that he wielded a knife all of a sudden, I can understand the feelings that led him to do it. I passively defended them.

“Of course, the riot itself will have to be judged. It’s clearly their fault. However… I just hope that the punishment is not more severe than it should be. “It was a statement made with the wish for leniency at exactly that level.”

“Is that so.”

“But in my opinion, there is no need to force them to forgive. I just…”

“Don’t worry. “I’m not a person so spineless that I’m swayed by the opinions of just one guest.”

“…I never thought about it like that.”

“Don’t worry. “I have never had such a misunderstanding.”

Bora Bam smiled for a rare moment and added a word. “Well, if it is the opinion of a disciple and not a guest, I can break your heart.” It was a sound that made me sweat.

“Do you two have anything to say?”

“As someone who made a mistake, I don’t dare say anything. However, we would appreciate it if you would not accept this action as the opinion of the entire Munmund.”

“Is that so.”

When Sir Sapphire stepped forward and answered, the purple serpent looked worried for a moment. And after a while, he parted his lips as if he had decided on a punishment.

“I will seek compensation for broken reagent bottles and damaged materials. However, this will be billed to the two individuals and not to the city of Münmund.”

“thank you.”

“thank you.”

“Well, you wouldn’t think that when you look at the price.”

“…Don’t worry, we’ll pay for it somehow.”

“Then I’m relieved.”

Reagent bottles and materials… how expensive are they? I remembered the prices of ingredients I had seen while running errands for Meister.

I don’t know how much the driver gets, but… they might have to give their entire salary.

“I won’t charge you with any more crimes than that.”

“thank you.”

“It would be good to just keep that in mind. I forgave you only because no one was hurt and because Lord Job sought mercy from you. “If the same thing happens again next time, I will judge it as disrespectful to our magic tower and file a formal complaint to Munmund.”

“That will never happen.”

“great. Well then, let’s go. “The person waiting outside will guide you to your room.”

“…thank you.”

Anyway, I think things have been roughly sorted out. I sighed and tried to walk along with the departing knights, wondering how I had ended up here when I was supposed to grab something to eat.

“Where are you going?”

“…I was going to go to my room. “Do you have anything to say?”

“Aren’t you going to study anyway? “You can do it here. I’ll teach you.”

Oh, professor, please.
