The Player Hides His Past Chapter 170

Episode 170. It’s possible because I exist (1)

“Then make it hard.”

Harkon returned to the conference hall after talking with Yeshica Enoch.

Quite a bit of time passed, but Kitsch was still there.

Emperor’s sword.

Knight Commander Ryan Hart’s eyes shone coldly.

‘If it was me in the past.’

I wouldn’t have been able to clear my doubts easily.

The notoriety of the Shadow Mercenary Corps was evident even in the imperial palace.

The crimes they committed under the pretext of a request had been heinous since ancient times.

But Harkon knew.

‘Everything has changed.’

Cataclysm.

Now that we have fallen from the Arcana Continent to the world of adventurers.

It must be foolish to dwell on the past.

Besides, didn’t he come to know about it through the Hoyeol sutra?

‘Humans who are not demons can change.’

Even Harkon himself was like that.

I never thought I’d talk to and even train adventurers who didn’t even have basic swordsmanship skills, let alone fame. Because I couldn’t have imagined it in the past.

So Harkon’s eyes changed.

“I didn’t expect you to be waiting first, Captain Kichi.”

“I have nothing to do but drink, so I have to come quickly.”

“I heard the news. How is Lockkid?”

“I’m fine now. I still have a dirty temper.”

“Well, he’s not a guy who’s going to fall so easily. he is.”

normal conversation.

I thought I’d dispel my doubts.

Even so, the change in kitsch was incomprehensible.

In the end, Harkon asked straight forward.

“It’s up and running, Captain Kichi.”

“Are you different?”

“Because it wasn’t enough for the shadow mercenaries to participate in the holy war. I didn’t expect you, the leader, to attend the meeting. It must have been something.”

“If it’s an opportunity…”

Kichi blurted out his words.

‘Sheesh. This is why I don’t want to get involved with the nobles of the empire.’

The reputation of the Shadow Mercenary Corps was rather high among the people.

It has to be. The cost of the Shadow Mercenary Corps was beyond the common sense of not only the common people but also the common sense of most aristocrats.

From the beginning, the customer base was only high-ranking people who had a lot.

‘If the knight commander appeared first…!’

Why did you show up for your appointment early?

Of course it was to score points.

Is Elsidore supposed to look good to our Commander-in-Chief Lee Ho-yeol?

The information I got from a son of a bitch doing something.

I’ll be able to eavesdrop even with a hint.

but.

‘Guys, I live in pain like this.’

Look at those lion-like eyes.

Even if I answered just a little bit wrong.

I’m sure this snobbish secret will be discovered sooner or later.

First of all, Kitsch was evasive.

“…It’s all thanks to Captain Lee Ho-yeol, right? haha.”

One thing I realized while living in Yusra Kingdom.

Once you mention Lee Ho-yeol’s name, anything will be solved.

Just like how I was able to avoid most of the suspicions by pretending to be a Goddess on the Arcana continent.

To be honest, Hoyeol’s influence in Yusra Kingdom was as good as that of the goddess.

‘I can understand something.’

The Arcana people couldn’t easily adapt to the world of adventurers.

Because he was the one who normalized Frost Muon in Yusra Kingdom, where they could settle down without difficulty. As expected, the value of the name did not lose kitsch this time either.

Lee Ho-yeol.

The moment the name stone comes out.

Harkon’s face brightens.

“I see! You, too, have come to realize your pride!”

“Yes yes?!”

No, but why are you suddenly moving to pride?!

“…isn’t that it?”

Harkon’s cold face.

In the end, Kichi had no choice but to raise the corner of his mouth.

I couldn’t figure out what his pride was.

“No, that’s right! Proud Hahaha! Heeuk-”

…Let’s assume that he realized it for now.

that’s pride

All of the shadow mercenaries.

Even for our comfortable old age.

great union.

Nam Tae-min had a smile on his lips.

“Now I can feel it.”

Hoyeol called us!

It was as if we were in the same boat from the time we jumped into the holy war.

It was a new feeling to attend the meeting.

The one who broke my excitement after a long time was Hisagi, who was walking side by side.

“Are you really excited, Nam Tae-min?”

“…what else? What are you arguing about?”

“I couldn’t sleep a wink from worry.”

Hisagi put on a pitiful expression.

The snake’s eyes accentuated the sorrowful look, so I didn’t even want to look at it.

Nam Tae-min frowned, but Hisagi smiled.

“I wondered all night whether we deserved to attend a meeting like this. From Lion Heart Knights to Wizards of the Mage Tower. Compared to them, we are still far behind.”

“Hey, what am I going to be if I say that?”

“What happened? Being true to your feelings is just what a barbarian is.”

thick mass.

pitiful size.

The sight of the two men arguing was enough to draw attention.

“Ha, embarrassing.”

Leonie sighed and walked a few steps away from the two of them.

However, the distancing is colorless.

The two men turned their heads without saying who was first.

“What do you think?”

“What do you think, Leonie?”

“Both of you, just shut up.”

To the point where I don’t know why they fight every day.

In Leonie’s eyes, they both looked the same.

In any case, the fight will end only when a decision is made.

Will the attention be less focused?

That way I’ll be less embarrassed.

Eventually, Leonie gritted her teeth and opened her mouth.

“What is the cause of the quarrel in the first place?”

“You don’t like me being happy, you snake eyes.”

“I guess I can’t understand the wild nature with my reason.”

“Are you being sarcastic again?”

“…stop.”

Arguments aren’t the root cause, you big boys!

“Now listen.”

Swoop—

the two of them lowered their heads to the waist.

…Are you saying I’m short just because I’m short?

I was heartbroken for a moment, but I held it in.

“If you go back, the cause is because of the all-out meeting, right?”

“yes.”

“you’re right. The sensibility of modern people and savages coming from there…”

Anyway, I do not listen to a word.

Before Nam Tae-min gets angry.

Leonie quickly added his words.

“After all, you both feel the same way.”

“…Eh? I? with this one?”

“Isn’t it because you both want to be helpful?”

“!!”

Whether pride precedes or worry precedes.

In the end, the place where the heart goes will be the same.

That’s why the Great Alliance has been able to roll so far.

But why are you always fighting each other?

“Now you come and put on an expression of understanding. I get really pissed off.”

Captain Harkon, look at this.

What should I do with my head before physical training?

Did you get a satisfactory answer then?

Nam Tae-min straightened his back and raised his head.

“I got it.”

“Neither do I.”

Eyes meeting momentarily.

mouth open at the same time.

“It’s called pride.”

“You are proud.”

“…?!”

no is that right?

Why are you suddenly turning the steering wheel and ramming into it with pride?!

Leonie was at a loss for words.

“Okay, today is a truce.”

“I agree, Taemin Nam.”

“…Mad guys.”

Lee Ho-yeol, look at this.

you made them like this

it’s raining

Leonie left the two men behind and headed for the golden palace.

I thought that pride would be transferred, so as quickly as possible.

However, when Leonie entered the conference room, she was stunned.

It wasn’t something the berserker himself had to say…

but he dared to be sure.

“…they weren’t the only ones crazy.”

This is madness.

Only Nam Tae-min and Hisagi had nothing to say.

An unusual conversation overheard.

“I didn’t know the Explorers’ League would join the war.”

“Because there is plenty of room for our explorers to play an active role in the temple. Of course, I, the federation leader, was also surprised. I’m an explorer starting with me, but it’s rare to find a family that doesn’t unite like an explorer… I thought most of the Alliance Explorers would agree.”

“You mean the pride of an explorer!”

Pride before victory.

Who are these people who have the same conversation with that fanatic?

It was neither a player nor a ranker, but Harkon, the leader of the Lion Heart Knights, and Fabian, the leader of the Explorers’ League.

This time, a conversation that penetrates the left eardrum.

“I heard that you gave away the religious relics. Senior Bellier has asked me to express my gratitude. Of course, I am also very indebted.”

“no. The relic is no longer ours. No matter how you use it, there is nothing to thank the church for. It’s because I realized the pride that is more valuable than the holy relics.”

“I do agree with that statement.”

The largest religious goddess church on the Arcana continent.

Talim leading tens of thousands of Holy Knights of the Order of the Goddess.

Marcelo, the head of the Mage Tower, who doesn’t even need a modifier.

After all, they are great people beyond that.

At that point, Leonie was seriously worried.

‘…Wait, am I wrong at this point?’

Could it be that I just didn’t realize it?

I wanted to ask a cool question from the bottom of my heart.

What the hell is pride!

However, a word floating around among the players came to mind.

-“From asking what pride is, it is an act without pride.”

Degururi—

In the end, Leonie kept her mouth shut and only rolled her eyes.

In the meantime, I met eyes with Kichi, who was sitting across from me.

Just as pride recognized pride, Leonie and Kichi recognized each other.

“!!”

…You don’t know what pride is either, do you?

Of course, the joy did not last long.

Appointment time on time.

audible shoe noise.

Again—

because Ho-yeol appeared in the conference room.

Thanks everyone for being punctual.

whatever the rest is anyway.

Is it because you didn’t expect it?

Special thanks to Kitsch.

‘…it would be terrible if it wasn’t.’

lack of pride

No formality and no manners.

I almost started the meeting with nagging.

Thanks, I didn’t delay.

As soon as I was seated, I brought up the main topic.

“The reason I summoned you today is simple.”

I’ve said it several times, but it’s better to see it for yourself than to explain it.

I put the [Evil Eyes Spyglass] on the round table in the conference room.

The effect was activated and continued.

“The battle for the demon king has begun.”

“…!!!”

A view of the Arcana continent floating in the air.

Everyone must have gotten used to the devastated continent by now.

But it’s on a different level than before.

The Earthquake Arcana Continent was split.

Marcelo said in a firm voice.

“That’s not magic.”

“If it’s not magic…?”

“It must be the devil’s work.”

Green flames rising from the cracks.

…wait for a sec.

Fabian muttered, and opened his mouth with a puzzled expression.

“A light like a torch in hell…? If so, what?”

right. No way, it’s Fabian.

“Yes. It is the fire of hell.”

“Hell’s torch. Fabian What are you talking about?”

“…Unbelievable. I’ll show you right now.”

Fabian immediately took out the [Hell’s Torch].

It was a torch that burned with the same light as the green fire on the Arcana continent.

It’s me [Teppern Labyrinth] I wasn’t surprised to see it from the rift, but I’m sure others aren’t.

“This Torch of Hell was left behind by an Alliance explorer who said he had witnessed the gates of Hell in the past. I have not personally confirmed it, but I have heard that it has the effect of burning demons.”

Kichi, who was twisting his hair with his fingers, asked.

“I’m sorry for talking. Demon world and hell are different, right?”

That’s a good question kitsch.

Demon world and hell are completely different.

The Devil World is the home of demons, but Hell, to borrow the words of Grandfel, is a place where demons are trapped.

To be precise, it was the afterlife where demons hunted by demon hunters fell.

“Well, judging from the fact that demons are prevalent in the Arcana continent, it seems that the passage to the demon world has been opened a long time ago… Is there any reason for the demons to open the gates of hell?”

Why are demons the place they fear the most?

Have you opened the door to hell?

I don’t even know how the battle for the demon lord goes.

Of course not everyone can guess.

Neither did I.

That is, until my eyes flicker.

[Class Quest: Gates of Hell]

But now that I know everything.

I was able to stand upright as always.

In front of those who are shaken by unexpected circumstances.

I was able to talk nonchalantly as usual.

“There is no need to question or worry.”
