Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? - Chapter 126

◈Episode 126 That’s enough (1)

【Sorry. Due to our shortcomings…】

It was noon when I got the appropriate amount of sleep.

The Archmage checked on those who had been wandering outside during that time, unable to come in.

If it weren’t for the barriers she set up using her own electricity, at least one of them would have sneaked in.

You can tell just by looking at that happy expression and the way she is secretly looking beyond herself.

To say that they were worried about the demon knight’s condition was not enough to show concern on their faces. So, he must be conscious of the child.

Well, if you look at the circumstances, it wasn’t really a strange thing. Because of their management failure, the child of the person who died for treason attacked the guests.

However, if you look at the other side, it is different. The child clearly escaped with someone’s help and targeted the demon knight in the process. That too, on the night when the demon knight had a conflict with the chieftain of this land.

It’s a poor plan, but it’s doubtful it’s a coincidence. And the Archmage had no intention of missing this subtlety.

Even if this was not the chief’s intention in the first place, if it was for the child’s safety, he should not have been sent away.

Since the demon knight had given the child a chance, she had a reason to protect it.

【It’s okay.】

【That child…】

【We’ll dispose of it on our own.】

【Yes?】

Wouldn’t it be a little funny to see a situation where the victim protects the perpetrator instead of forgiving him? But what can I do? What has already been said.

She smiled dryly, said she had finished eating, and closed the door again.

They must have found out that Chief Bigabol had defrauded them, and they may have even suspected that he was an instigator of murder. No favors will be accepted if possible.

【Ugh….】

At that time, the child suddenly woke up. As the light lingered in the yellow eyes, they became a clear gold color, like flowing honey.

【Uh!】

The child immediately began to hesitate as he checked where he was lying and that he was covered by me. Her red cheeks became warm, like those of a child of that age.

【Do you want to eat at least?】

I declined all meals, but I have some snacks prepared in advance. She also made suggestions to lighten the mood. Even though the child felt uncomfortable, he did not refuse.

【…That person… Is it okay if I don’t wake him up?】

【It’s okay.】

Meals are important, but there’s no need to wake him up from sleep to feed him.

Rather, he needed to get some sleep.

Perhaps it is an aftereffect of the poison, but my sleep has increased over the past few days, but my sleep time is still too little compared to average.

“No… I guess the one I slept the least about was Berserk. “After all, they are warriors.”

【Yes?】

【No. 】

Anyway, the demon knight can sleep a little more. She did not disturb the demon knight’s sleep.

The next day, when I couldn’t open my eyes until the sun rose in the sky, I thought something was wrong.

* * *

‘Get angry. ‘Get angry at all the unreasonable suffering.’

‘If you cover your eyes, this is enough. ‘Isn’t it time to get angry?’

‘You must be tired of being deceived by obvious lies.’

‘Aren’t you angry at those who made you get blood on your hands?’

‘The kid who stabbed you in the heart is right in front of you. I was trying to kill you. ‘How do you forgive?’

‘No more escaping from reality….’

“…buy.”

Sleep without dreams is more comfortable than you think.

“…article!”

A system that allows you to fall asleep right away without tossing and turning, even if you are not tired, is also useful. No, this is actually the best.

“…Magic Knight!”

If it were reality, I would have trouble sleeping due to stress, but I would still be able to sleep comfortably.

“Demon knight!”

But sleep must end sometime. It was time to go back.

“…What.”

I slowly opened my eyes and examined the situation.

I slept and woke up repeatedly and I don’t know how long I slept. Judging from the deep sound of his voice, I think he must have slept for more than a day.

“…is it okay?”

“I asked what it was.”

How long did you sleep? I checked my surroundings to see if I had woken up because of some urgent matter. There was nothing special.

“…That’s not true. “Aren’t you hungry more than that?”

Still, it looks like it’s daytime because the sunlight is shining through. Since I seem to have fallen asleep around dawn, I wonder if it was a normal attack during the day…

but if that were really the case, there’s no way the Archmage would have such a cold face. Also, my satiety dropped more than I expected.

Did I sleep more than a day?

“I woke you up because it was time to eat.”

If that’s really true… I slept more than I thought. It was so miserable that every time I woke up, I was in a half-asleep state and my thoughts were wandering, so I tried repeatedly to use the system functions, only to end up making this mistake.

This is My My Steak.

“I won’t force you, but… if you’re willing, just give it a little bit.”

But what can we do about what has already happened? It’s not necessarily a bad thing since the fatigue level is reduced to 0.

I thought about it and joined the table. I was a little worried about the cafe, but that was quickly put aside.

It was an act that did not fit the concept, but it was still right after being stabbed near the heart.

Shouldn’t we just pass it off as an aftereffect? Honestly, I think it’s even weirder to be like this and say something while sleeping.

“I thought the only way to get the chief’s favor anymore would be to shake hands, so I just tried what I had. “So I’m dressed simply… will that be okay?”

Meanwhile, the Archmage slightly excused himself over the dinner table. It was so different from the last meal that I wondered why, and it seemed like that was the case.

but. Even if it’s just me, I don’t want to receive favor from a crazy guy who is a domestic abuser and threatens my children with their lives.

It’s better to just eat rice with soy sauce than to get anything extra from that bastard. Well then.

In that respect, any amount of tidying up is OK. The simple setting is also a meal prepared by someone else, so how can one complain?

Plus, I’m a bit of a picky eater, but at least there’s nothing about this outfit that makes me a picky eater.

I ate the soup made with mixed grain powder without saying anything. Even though I spoke nonsense, the child seemed to understand perfectly and remained in his seat.

I must have become quite friendly with the Archmage while I was asleep, so the two of us are quite close.

“I’m thinking of leaving soon… Would it be better to rest a little longer?”

It’s good to be close.

I shoved the soup into my mouth in a bit of a daze. The Archmage’s words, delivered in silence, passed through my ears and reached my brain. Only after thinking about it twice did I understand what it meant.

Are we finally going to meet Sangun? Or did they realize that the chieftain was a piece of trash, so they just went to sleep and beat them all up?

Personally, I would prefer the latter, but since this is a Magic Tower quest, it’s probably the former, right?

“Not required.”

I figured it out on my own and gave an appropriate answer. If you think that the reason I slept for a long time is because of an injury, and you are being considerate, then there is no need for it.

My physical condition is not bad enough to postpone departure.

“Really… um. I understand. Just don’t overdo it. “Just because you rest doesn’t mean you’ll have a problem.”

That may be the case, but only if the concept allows it.

I finished the soup mechanically. The hot soup seemed to warm my insides, but the subtle chill did not go away.

【Um…what are you talking about…】

【Oh, it’s no big deal. This is the story I told you yesterday, Akata.】

【Ah…】

No matter how warm the air around you is, no matter how hot the food you eat.

It was a chill brought on by a sadness that would never go away.

“Then let’s leave now. Take care of everything you need…”

…But you still have to come to your senses. I adjusted my expression, erasing the thought of falling into Samcheonpo again.

The concept does not reveal feelings of exhaustion at any moment. Because it was GAO… or was it KAO? I’m suddenly confused by the English notation.

bang!!!

But you can focus on something else like this?

I said it was because of the quest, but I frowned, thinking it was too much.

I understand that an incident is expanding from something trivial to something huge, but isn’t this kind of continuous event a bit much?

This is already the third explosion since entering the forest! If you mess with patterns like this, all the players will get bored and have no fun!

“…It’s a really windy place.”

Look at me. Isn’t the Archmage also a wise face?

I grumbled to myself that the screenwriter was stealing my salary.

Of course, I don’t really think that way. After looking into it, I found out that there was a lot of work there.

【What are you talking about…】

【Akata, you stay here for a while.】

While the Archmage was comforting the child for a moment, I opened the door and went out. My eyes narrow as I look around to understand the situation.

Ding ding ding!!

【It’s an attack!】

【The Jatavs have arrived!】

I had a half-intuition from the roar, but no matter how I looked at it, it looked like an attack, didn’t it?

“It looks like Jatav really has an overabundance of troops…”

I had bleary eyes (inwardly) as I watched the people running towards the village entrance.

Adding to the Archmage’s words, it is not only true that it was an attack, but also the fact that the attacker is Jatav.

okay. Those guys who made me work hard when I was in the Serhang tribe.

It was a truly warlike tribe. People are going around saying it’s time to elect a warchief, whether it’s Katana or Katina. Is it okay to keep politics in check like this?

“There is no reason to get involved in this fight anymore. Rather…”

At that time, the Archmage was thinking deeply about something.

“You did the fraud first, so there’s no need to say hello. “Let’s just take this opportunity and leave secretly.”

From my perspective, it was absurd because the process was so omitted.

hey. If you say that without an explanation, I don’t understand. What a scam?? Is that kid really an assassin sent by Atart??

“What are you talking about?”

I asked somewhat nervously. Even though it’s a concept I’m not interested in around Amman, I had to ask.

It is natural that the word ‘fraud’ was mentioned. My concept cannot survive.

“Oh… I forgot you didn’t hear.”

After the Archmage apologized, saying that he seemed to be blinking too much as he got older – but I think my memory is worse than the Archmage’s – he briefly explained what happened yesterday.

The impression I got after listening to it is that Atart is a real son of a bitch.

We fought from the moment we found out that he was a domestic abuser, but even the terms of service they gave us were fraudulent? This one was yellow from the beginning.

‘Shouldn’t I kill him?’

Don’t you really have to kill me?

I clenched my fists for a moment and then unclenched them.

No matter how much the opponent says they are trash that cannot be improved and cannot be recycled, let alone separated from humans, killing them is against human rights. Mainly my human rights.

Anyway, it’s too insulting to me to get my hands dirty by trying to kill that scum.

In the first place, the attitude of resolving everything through violence is also bad.

However, the fact that he is a criminal who should be isolated from society does not disappear.

My lips quivered as I looked at the victims who had no room to intervene and had to wait and see.

If it’s a concept, you have to think about what to do at this point, but as the number of house inspectors continues to increase, I’m leaning towards kicking the guy. I can’t live like this.

“Could it be that you…”

I guess my expression was a bit off. The Archmage was sweating profusely—meaning she wasn’t sweating, but it almost looked like that—and spoke to me.

【Damn magic!!】

But the timing was wrong. Another loud noise rang out and an explosion occurred. Unlike before, when I was inside the building, the view was now open, so I could see the process better.

“It will break through.”

It was a very accurate answer. All the priests here had participated in the rebellion, so there was no manpower to counter the enemy’s magic.

So, except for the Archmage who is a guest and actually a mercenary?

【Guest!!】

Look at me. Suddenly running towards you.

Archmage and I frowned when we saw the people running towards us. Of course, we weren’t too relaxed. It’s an explanation and a worry, but I was standing outside for less than a minute.

But what? Isn’t discovering and calling others only possible at close range? That was it.

【Traitors have dragged Jatav in. Please help me─】

【I’m sorry, but I don’t think that’s going to work.】

The Archmage calmly dismissed the situation even though it hadn’t come to a conclusion yet. It seems like she made a hasty decision out of fear that I might go and kill Atart… but only she knows the truth.

【I received a call from the Magic Tower. Our situation has become urgent.】

【If this continues, we will end up in trouble!】

【I feel really sad that I cannot help.】

The coldness in the tone is very reminiscent of the Siberian plains.

【Why…!】

【I’m sorry. We’ll take care of the child like we said yesterday.]

Separately, I was thinking about whether or not to go get Atart right now, but I ended up thinking that if things continue like this, Bigabol will collapse anyway.

There was too much involved in this situation to intervene and say that Atart was a bad guy. Damn it.

【…There was a message left by the chief just in case the guest refused the request.】

Damn it.

“If you don’t come, you will lose anyway. I will kill all the children in the village. 【He said】”

A true son of a bitch doesn’t do just one bad thing.

* * *

“Mr. I barely got here, but why is this place such a mess….”

“Fight! battle! Berserk wants to be in there!”

“Mr. Fighter, please be patient. Why are you trying to get involved in a fight that will only result in losses in the first place??”

The most disobedient and disobedient person in Deathbringer’s life so far was the Demon Knight. However, since Berserk joined, the ranking may change slightly.

This guy is really okay in normal times, but when it comes to fighting, his eyes roll.

The devil knight is distracted by devil-related material and has difficulty conversing even on a regular basis, so he is still number one.

“I definitely joined looking for more fights. But every time you tell me not to fight… you guys are liars…”

“I never said that Debsho.”

I just said that I was joining, but I never tried to persuade him to join.

Deathbringer let go of his responsibility and brought the item given by White Wind to his eyes.

It is an item that detects the energy of life and allows you to see beings beyond walls… It may be helpful when planning an infiltration route, but it is very inconvenient when looking for people.

It looks like everyone just took the outline and painted it in various colors.

“uh!”

They said magic users would be easy to find, so is this what they meant?

While the colors of ordinary people are blurry and difficult to distinguish from the background, magic users’ colors are so dark that they are more clearly visible.

And the Demon Knight and Archmage….

“There is nothing to be confused about.”

The energy it possessed was so enormous that it did not even take on a human shape. No, the Archmage’s outline was blurry, but it still had a human shape, but the Demon Knight just… just…

seemed like the space had been cut out in a circle. As if even observation is not permitted.

“But why are you coming this way…”

Are you sure you want to participate in this fight? No, whatever. It wouldn’t be strange if they cooperated because the military was at stake, but didn’t they decide not to intervene in politics as much as possible?

“…Young hunter.”

But why─.

“Get down.”

The Deathbringer suddenly lost his breath as the weight pressed down on his body. This is because the weight of the muscles in my stomach was heavier than I thought.

But that was nothing compared to what happened next.

───!

The moment a wave that could not even be called a sound shook the heavens and earth, the hem of the hood and hair shook like crazy. If Berserk hadn’t been pressing down on my body, I would have been in trouble.

“What on earth…”

And then he saw. The trees that had stretched thickly above his head had disappeared without a trace.

Just as in that city and castle on Montata Island, half of the castle was reduced to dust, leaving only the lower part.
