Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? Chapter 80

◈Episode 80: Don’t do this (5)

My vision seems a little red from earlier.

I felt a little puzzled by that fact, but then quickly turned it off. I thought it might be because of my mood, and even if it wasn’t because of my mood, I thought at most it would be a bit of blood splattering.

However, it wasn’t that much of a nuisance.

Above all, there was too much work to do to even pay attention to the field of view.

“Run away!”

“Kwaaaak!”

Look, even now. Aren’t the bugs alive and running away?

Oh, it’s not a waste. It’s a person. Maybe I was too absorbed in the devil knight concept, but I made a mistake in choosing words.

“Wow!”

‘But isn’t it okay to tell him to throw it away? It’s so unsightly.’

I pierced the back of the person who was running away from me. The scimitar was broken and the two-hender was difficult to use inside the building, so I had no choice but to use my hands this time.

“Is it too cruel?”

The heart was pulled out and crushed. Even though it was a little disgusting, I wondered what was going on. It was either stabbed to death with a sword or stabbed to death by hand, that was it.

Also, who are these people? Aren’t they massacrers? A massacre who destroyed this city, entire cities, and many other villages, and devastated the people who lived there.

For those people, even death like this is a luxury. They had to be torn apart to the point where they couldn’t even put the pieces back together.

「Insanity Gauge 54%」

In that respect, the hands were very convenient. All the humans collapsed and died easily even without the use of weapons… because tearing them apart one by one was easier with the hand than with the sword.

“Insanity Gauge 57%”

But when did the Insanity Gauge exceed 50%?

I fell into deep confusion over what I found out later. Of course, I couldn’t stop my actions just because I was worried, so I didn’t forget to catch the person who was running away.

‘It won’t matter. There doesn’t seem to be anything particularly wrong.’

I parted its back with my fingertips. Four marks were left, as if scratched by an animal, allowing the man’s bones and internal organs to be glimpsed.

It was quite a sight to see. Only the traces were worth seeing.

“Is it dirty?”

I suddenly realized that my hands were really dirty. Blood and crushed flesh clinging to each other.

I know it will get clean later, but it’s still unpleasant. Should I have just picked up any sword and killed him?

‘But if these guys weren’t there in the first place, wouldn’t it have gotten dirty?’

「Insanity Gauge 60%」

Once I had fallen, it was not easy to get over it.

It’s because of those guys. Those guys did it wrong. A grumpy person in the back of my mind was talking wildly and putting off the cause.

“You bastards.”

Of course, I knew it wasn’t their fault. But even though I knew, my anger did not go away. Annoyance was like that in nature.

“Everyone die.”

So what can you do? I have no choice but to kill.

“Wow!”

“Aaaah!”

“Sigh.”

「Insanity Gauge 61%」

「Insanity Gauge 62%」

「Insanity Gauge 63%」

I moved forward, breaking every person I saw, breaking their necks and trampling on their internal organs.

There was no need to pay attention to those around you because all you wanted to do was kill more things that deserved to die anyway as a way to vent your anger.

“Open the door, open the door!”

“The damned bastards blocked the door from the other side!”

“Do something!”

“You pirate bastards, go out and try to kill time!”

“How can you waste so much time cutting a sword with your bare hands!”

Then I saw a familiar hallway. I think it was on the way to the central garden…

I guess the criminals’ tenuous bond played a role again in the meantime. I chuckled as I watched the people struggling behind the closed door.

“It’s coming! It’s coming!”

Slashing is the best way to kill things like that in one go. But I don’t know if it will work because I don’t have a weapon.

I took a quick look around to see if there was anything I could swing at.

‘With bare hands?’

Then suddenly my hand caught my eye. It wasn’t strange. Isn’t this a body that can break rocks and do other things when covered with magical power?

When it comes to vessels containing magical power, there is not much difference between a sword and a body. If you do that, shooting out magical power will be no different.

Magical energy began to sizzle in my hands.

“Damn it, I won’t just die—!”

I gently waved my arms diagonally. Then, a thick and rough slash spread out. It seemed a little more unstable than when it was fired with a sword.

Suddenly!

However, the power was equal. The bodies of those at the end of the hallway were cut diagonally.

“Insanity gauge 64%”

A slight sense of pleasure shook my spine.

Cooung.

It didn’t stop there, and even the door leading to the garden was cut down. Beyond that, the central garden in question was visible.

“Here we come!”

“Prepare to attack!”

“Just stick to the plan!”

I wondered where the demon contractors had gone and it seemed like they were all camped out here.

I glanced at the magic circle drawn on the floor and saw the demon contractors again. The aim was very obvious. It may be a sign that they want to get rid of me based on the blood and sacrifices they have collected.

“What can I do without using magic?”

“Oh, it doesn’t work.”

However, it appears that a problem has occurred. No one could perform the magic. Even the thought of watching what he was struggling for even for a moment cooled down.

“How can it be that it is not used…!”

“…Demon. “The devil is trying to kill us.”

That’s rude. I haven’t done anything devilish yet. In the first place, there was a setting that he was carrying a devil in his right arm, but his body was not even a devil.

“Has everyone run away?”

Still, there was some fun in seeing an enemy dying helplessly. Realizing that the attack didn’t work, I just lightly waved at those who were trying to run away.

Sigh!

Dozens of people lost their lives at once. Indeed, even humans were weak.

“flaw.”

“Insanity Gauge 65%”

So much so that I can’t help but laugh.

“Huh, heh….”

“Huh.”

But what is this?…

I pursed my lips and then noticed the captives strewn about the garden. I almost passed by without noticing it because it was flat on the floor like an insect.

‘Should I kill him?’

I was agitated for a moment, but quickly shook it off. These were the people I had to save. Not something to kill.

‘really?’

…I guess so.

I pinched my eyes. It was a little strange. I’m not sure, but since earlier… I’ve been feeling a bit…

‘This is not the time.’

…I don’t know. I’m a bit tired, but maybe that’s why? Or maybe the penalty effect of the madness gauge is a daze in the head.

“good.”

I tore off people’s shackles, clearly aware of the sudden sinking feeling. It wasn’t that difficult once I learned how to properly place magical power in my hands.

“Hehehe!”

But why does he scream every time I try to help him? Make people feel bad.

Even those who had already been released ran away without even looking back. There was no such thing as a thank you note.

It’s a bit unpleasant.

‘If someone hates me for no reason, maybe I should give them a reason to hate me.’

I was thinking about giving these people a real reason to be afraid, but I held on until the end. We cannot harm civilians. That was against ethics. Because it was out of alignment… I took that….

“Insanity Gauge 66%”

“Insanity Gauge 67%”

That?

「Insanity Gauge 68%」

Annoying and unpleasant. Everything is annoying. It was definitely fun until now.

“Insanity gauge 69%”

I felt something hot rising from inside. Everything was annoying. No, I was angry.

Would it be convenient if they all disappeared before my eyes? Or should I kill him? Would this feeling be lessened if we tore off the limbs of everything, dug out the internal organs, scattered them on the ground, and then burned them like that?

“Insanity gauge 70%”

I don’t know. I was just filled with anger.

A fire that doesn’t seem to go out even if it burns the whole world.

My vision became even redder.

* * *

The Inquisitor somehow succeeded in reaching the castle while dealing with the flocking demons. At some point, the demons ran away rather than attacking them, so it wasn’t that difficult.

“Are demons inherently creatures that run away for no reason?”

“…no. “The devil doesn’t run away.”

Except in one case, demons do not escape easily.

“Everyone take up arms. And… in case of emergency, run away without looking back.”

There is only one case where they run away. Only when a high-ranking demon who is overwhelmingly stronger than them tries to hunt them down.

“yes?”

The closer the Inquisitor got, the more creepy the castle became. At the end of the castle façade, the faint outline of a garden was visible.

“It looks like the ground is hollowed out in a straight line?”

“It’s true… who does this?”

They approached the garden following an unnaturally drawn trail.

“That is…”

The first to witness its identity was the Deathbringer, who has the brightest night vision.

“…It’s terrible.”

However, he could not bear to continue speaking, and another thief spoke on his behalf. The Inquisitor’s eyes, who were middle-class and had poor night vision, stared into the darkness for a moment.

“I can’t see very well, but what do I see?”

“…the corpse of the devil.”

She walked ahead without letting down her guard. The thief’s words were barely added after she had taken three more steps.

“Torn into dozens and hundreds of pieces.”

Only then did she see Dongsan’s true identity. It was the mark of chopping up a huge demon like chopping meat.

What’s even more terrifying is the fact that the chopper was made with a sharp blade, not a blunt weapon like a mace. The proof is that the cross section is straight, as if it were cut into cubes.

“…Who does this?”

One of the bandits said to himself. And the answer to the question it implied was someone the Inquisitor and Deathbringer knew. I haven’t seen it with my own eyes, but I can be sure.

“I guess I’ll be a knight.”

There is no one other than that man who could do something like that, including leaving traces on the ground.

A veil of silence was drawn over the group.

“Entering.”

They silently passed through the garden and entered the castle. The castle was so dark that even the faint moonlight disappeared and it was difficult to see at all.

“There’s no sign of me, so can I turn on the light?”

“…okay.”

Pak pak pap. After several attempts, the inside of the oil lamp finally caught fire.

At the same time, the world was dyed scarlet. The stone walls, the tattered carpeted floor, and the ceiling. At least the blood that was spread everywhere and the former owner of that blood.

“…!!”

Actually, that wasn’t a new sight. If it was the devil knight who killed the devil outside, and if he went inside the castle instead of going outside, there was no way he would miss them.

Because these are all people who sold their souls for wealth and fame.

However…

“There is no way the knight Sari would kill someone so cruelly.”

Deathbringer felt doubtful. This is because the murder method of the demon knight he knew and the method of death of the corpses were very different.

In any case, the demon knight was not particularly merciful, but at least he tended to send people away with a single sword. Also, the weapon used was always a sword, whether a short sword or a long sword.

If you don’t raise your sword, it’s often a case of subduing. The horse can be subdued, but don’t break at least one limb.

“Seriously, this… wasn’t killed with a sword.”

However, when analyzing the cause of death of the corpses, it turns out that they were not killed with a sword. This is rather…

“Did you pull it off with your hand?”

I think he killed it with his hands.

“hand?”

“The wound is too rough to have used a blade. There are many wounds on four sides. Above all, this person… “My heart was ripped out.”

The wound is too big to have been stabbed with a knife and the wound is too rough to have been cut out of the heart with a blade. No weapon he knew could produce such an image.

“The knight Sari knows how to strengthen his body with magic… If he had wrapped his hands in magic and ripped out his heart, that would explain it.”

Of course, I don’t know if that’s really possible. Before seeing Demon Knight, he had never encountered a magic user.

However, if it was the demon knight he had seen, it was exactly that dance. It doesn’t seem like it would be impossible.

“Is it not possible for you?”

“…If you are asking whether it is possible, it is possible.”

Even more so, if we admit that it is possible to become an Inquisitor with a force similar to that of a demon knight.

“…I have to be prepared.”

By killing the demon, we learned that the demon knight had not been taken over by the demons. However, there are too many suspicious signs to consider him an ally.

The Inquisitor pursed his lips at the Deathbringer’s words. For some reason, I felt like my instincts as a Heretic Questioner were ringing an alarm.

“For a moment, I hear people running.”

Then one of the thieves perked up his ears. That wasn’t a lie, and soon a group of people began to appear from the other side.

The Inquisitor took the lead and held up his shield. The source of the shield is a full plate that was used for decoration.

“Who are you?”

“Agh, please save me!”

The Inquisitor looked at the faces of those who came running with fierce eyes. I didn’t feel like I had any demonic energy, and my clothes were shabby. Just like the slaves they saw and even took one to their hiding place.

“We are the ones who came to kill Vipurit. “Who are you?”

“Hey, we…”

But you never know. She knew of corrupted deniers without any magic power who even went so far as to hide in the church.

The Inquisitor never let down his guard.

“They are safe.”

It would have been like that for quite some time even if a familiar voice hadn’t been speaking for them.

“you are…!”

Was his name Luk Quan? I clearly remember following the demon knight.

“You’re alive!”

They thought she was dead. If the Demon Knight had fallen into a trap, it would have been difficult for Luk’Quan, who was weak, to survive.

“Lukkwan!”

“You’re alive.”

But it is alive. He is surviving safely.

The Inquisitor was momentarily relieved by that small bit of luck.

“I was lucky.”

Meanwhile, Luk Quan approached with a complicated face and gestured at the people.

“There are a lot of things I want to say, but first of all, these are people who were meant to be used as sacrifices. “It’s safe.”

“is it.”

It’s not a relationship that is close enough to be absolutely trusted, but it’s also not a relationship where you can’t give up this level of trust. The Inquisitor believed Luk’Quan’s words and lowered his shield.

The people who were watching let out a sigh of relief and a little bit of impatience.

“You have to run away too.”

Then, one of them mustered up courage and stuttered. Those were strange words.

“What’s inside?”

“There is a monster….”

“It will kill us all.”

“Please send me away!”

When I ask something back, reactions close to hysterics come back.

“Killing them all… what on earth?”

“I’m guessing you’re talking about a demonic knight.”

However, when the reality that I had expected but was not prepared for suddenly struck me. The Inquisitor couldn’t help but be excited, just like everyone else.

“He… became strange.”

The Inquisitor’s hand held the mace tightly.

* * *

Kill, don’t kill. But I want to kill him. But why? I don’t know, I’m angry. Everything is annoying and annoying.

Isn’t it okay to kill a little bit?

“good!”

No, it’s not okay.

“Get out of here right now!”

I roughly cut the ropes that bound people like oysters. There is no time to loosen people’s shackles one by one.

At least I cut the line that limits the distance I can move, so I hope you can run away on your own.

“Huh huh.”

“Please save me.”

I’ve already shown enough mercy, so why are you begging me again? I want to kill him.

「Insanity Gauge 74%」

Puck!

As soon as I felt the desire to kill the running people, I hit my head.

This is not normal. It wasn’t an intermittent explosive disorder, and it couldn’t have been normal for someone to get excessively angry in a completely understandable situation.

It’s not just about getting angry, it’s even worse when you’re thinking about killing civilians!

“Get out of there before I kill you!!”

“Ugh!”

“Run away!”

I hurriedly chased the people away while holding my pounding head. It was a concept, a mess, and there was no time to worry about it anymore.

It feels as if something has settled into my brain and is whispering or injecting me endlessly. The seething murderous intent tries to let go of its own hands.

It seems like even if you lose your mind just a little bit, you will end up slaughtering people.

「Insanity Gauge 76%」

Is this because of the Insanity Gauge? no way?

“Ugh….”

‘Kill, kill. Please kill me. It’s annoying. This situation sucks. So let’s explode. ‘Let’s kill them all.’

“Fuck you, it’s a fucking game!”

“Insanity gauge 77%”

My throat was filled with anger that I didn’t know who it was directed at. It was not anger with a clear trigger.

Such feelings are bound to burn like a fire on a fuse, but now they are spreading sporadically like forest fire, heating up our eyes as they please.

My eyes became watery and my whole body was excited due to the rising anger. My mind is divided into reason, emotion, and other things, and they are talking to each other.

Kill it. it’s crazy? Let’s kill it. Fuck you. Why don’t you kill me? Does it make sense to kill someone just because you’re angry? But my anger doesn’t go away. It’s frustrating. The madness gauge is terrible.

My vision is red. It was red. Even that becomes irritating and makes thinking even more difficult. I just want to let my emotions flow.

But where does this feeling come from? Oh, is it the fucking madness gauge?

But does it make sense to arbitrarily touch the player’s emotions with the theme of the game?

I’m annoyed, no, I’m angry. Why am I stuck in this damn game and going through all this trouble?

“Insanity gauge 78%”

No. Don’t be swayed. Let’s quickly reflect on the modern code of ethics. If you kill someone because you’re angry, you should repeat, “It’s not a human, it’s an animal.”

「Insanity Gauge 79%」

No, but that Sibalom game bastard gets me first.

“Demon knight?”

I could barely hear a voice calling me amidst the ringing in my ears. I raised my head as if mesmerized by him…

“Are you okay?”

I found a lump of discomfort.

「Insanity Gauge 80%」

Oh, I can’t hold on any longer.
