Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? - Chapter 150
Episode 150: Everything goes as it should (10)
『It’s okay. I’m fine….’
In a place where sunlight falls instead of rain.
『If you can live… I’m not afraid of dying.』
At the moment when the mud puddled from the previous day’s rain littered the floor.
『So, never feel guilty.』
The one who smiled like a white flower put her hand on the back of his head and hugged him in her arms. Okay. Every time the whip was swung, the air cried and the leather tore.
『My death was not caused by you.』
The world that was vaguely visible over my shoulder has become hazy with light and there is not much to see.
All I saw was people being punished, covered in a halo of light, as if I were a sacred being, and drops of blood flying in all directions.
『It’s absolutely not your fault…』
But the voice ringing in my ear was truly clear.
『So… So live. Survive. No matter what adversity and hardships are in front of you, only you…』
Okay! At the last stroke of the whip, the warmth that had been embracing him forced him to lower his head.
Like a withered flower, it neither withered nor shriveled. Just like the moment when the peduncle and flower are separated.
『Sal─.』
Tuk.

“Wow!”
“Young hunter!”
Deathbringer took a deep breath, feeling his clogged lungs being freed.
The back of my neck felt like it was tingling and burning.
“Huh huh huh.”
But it’s not the neck that truly hurts. Where he really hurts, what’s really bothering him is….
“Breathe. “You need to rest.”
“Ugh….”
“Hunter.”
I’d rather you resent me.
I said I forgot about you and didn’t live like you said.
“Ah…”
“Hunter…”
In the name of your revenge, you drove dozens and hundreds of people to their deaths.
I want you to reprimand me and blame me for everything I did wrong.
“Emmett…”
But you won’t be like that forever.
Because it’s already dead.

“I was contacted earlier. I heard you brought Mia’s text with you. thank you.”
Whether I was shocked by the fishy mutterings or not, the situation continued.
“It’s no big deal. “I just asked you a favor because our paths overlap.”
“okay. I am so sorry that this is such an undeserved task. “The warrior and the great sage, I’m probably the first person to receive a letter delivered by a famous adventurer, right?”
Just because you started a fight because I didn’t say hello, does that mean you didn’t even give me an unpleasant look?
That means that in the end, it smelled really fishy and I muttered that it smelled fishy.
I took a shower so it can’t be me! This is a sound I heard on the street earlier. They say that it feels uncomfortable because there are places where it gets stuck.
“Oh, that’s right. It wouldn’t be polite to leave guests standing at the entrance. Please bring tea and refreshments to the pavilion in Tom’s garden.”
“yes.”
“You guys come this way.”
I go? Is it really me?
Is it really me?
“It’s a really beautiful flower garden.”
“Haha thank you.”
“I heard that Lord Xiaocheng raised you. Is this true?”
“It’s not enough, but yes, it is. “I didn’t raise it entirely on my own, so it’s not something I can brag about.”
It can’t be like this. I vowed to shower more thoroughly – but I still scrub hard enough to leave a few scratches, so how can I clean better – and decided to use a better soap even if it was expensive.
I don’t know about anything else, but I can’t compromise on the smell.
“I’ll give you the letter first.”
Anyway, the person we were talking to held a minimally formal meeting and received a letter from us.
“Oh, thank you.”
But is it because of my mood? Even though she received a love letter from her lover, she didn’t look very happy.
Instead of losing color, my eyes even felt a little cooler.
“…Aren’t you going to open it?”
“Haha, I really want to see you right away, but… I’m embarrassed. “We appreciate your consideration, but we will separate construction from construction.”
He even showed an unexpected reaction.
Lord So Seong of Camburgh said, ‘Even if he wants to read the letter first, don’t take it as rude, but let him see it first.’
All you have to do is tell us the situation, or you told us the slang, so you can say it using it. I added that since I had written such information in the letter, we would only have a conversation if I showed him the letter first.
However, those words assumed that the small castle lord of Ednium would naturally see Leon first. I don’t know if it was a promise between them or something, but I just went with that as a foundation.
“I see.”
But why don’t you want to see it now?
Have things changed?
The first thing I did was hypothesize whether he was being threatened and monitored by the devil or something similar.
However, if there was a devil, there is no way the Inquisitor would not know about it. If it’s there and you don’t know about it, it means that it’s been hidden so thoroughly that there’s no way for me to know.
Above all, his attitude itself was strange to think that he was being monitored or threatened.
I never forgot the cool eyes I saw earlier. It didn’t feel right to just blame it on my mood.
I thought about it before I came, but it’s a common cliché for the Seongju family to betray after being captured by evil. Although it is unlikely, it could be that love has simply cooled off.
“I brought you refreshments.”
At that time, a servant came with a trolley loaded with colorful candies, snacks, and tea.
“Thank you for your hospitality.”
“What? “You eat a lot.”
“There are flowers inside the sweets….”
“This is a candy made by putting whole flowers in it and hardening it. “It’s a work of art that our castle’s chef is confident in.”
It’s a candy with flowers in it. I think I would have liked it if Dev had come.
“It smells really good….”
“Haha, the chef will be happy to hear it. “If you like it, I’ll wrap it for you.”
“Is that still okay…?”
“sure. On the contrary, if you tell the warrior that he liked it enough to take it, the chef might be so happy that he starts dancing.”
At least he seems to like kimchi dumplings.
I watched as Leon had his servant pack a handful of candy and give it to us.
It was also observed until the end that he did not read the letter and only answered that he did not know when the Archmage asked about wild beasts.
There wasn’t anything that was particularly problematic, but once I had my doubts, everything seemed suspicious.
“Oh, that’s right. The Lord of Camburgh said he was curious about the cat that Leon had fallen in love with and asked me to come and see it with my own eyes…” “
Yes?”
okay. Especially this reaction.
“This is a cat that often comes to visit.”
“iced coffee. “That kid.”
Strangely… strangely slow to react, right? Like it takes time to remember what we’re talking about.
Of course, it could be that he has a bad memory, but…
“…I guess he got upset because I played with him less because I was busy preparing for the wedding. “I can’t see anything these days.”
I thought it was a bit strange that someone in the position of Soseongju had a poor memory.
“I guess you’re disappointed.”
“Yes. “Because he was a cute kid.”
“Are you okay with your allergies? “The Lord of Camburgh Castle was worried.”
“…Was Mia worried about me? “This makes me so happy.”
It’s also suspicious.
I don’t know what’s suspicious, but it’s suspicious anyway. Old Jjambap is shouting that that is strange.
“The allergies are still there. However, maybe that cat was a little special, but the kid was okay. “Maybe that’s why I save it.”
“Is that so.”
However, you cannot point a knife at a person with persimmon alone.
In the end, we prepared to leave with nothing to gain.
“In the end, it’s all in vain… It would have been nice to know something.”
Oh, isn’t there something at all? Because I received a candy package for kimchi dumplings. Considering that the real purpose was information, that part is disastrous.
“Well… we still have to wait and see.”
Still, the Archmage seems to have doubts at a similar point as me.
“Is it true that Inquisitor Magi didn’t feel any different?”
“yes? Oh yes. But are you doubting Lord Xiaoseong?”
“The attitude is somewhat different from what I heard from the minor lord of Camburgh. At least it seems like there’s something there.”
“Then…”
“Let’s investigate a little more. “I wasn’t planning on leaving the city right away anyway.”
“yes!”
“But… it’s unfortunate. “He is suited for this kind of work, but he doesn’t seem to be in a good condition to step forward.”
ah. That’s right. Our meat dumplings, right now is not the time to ask for an investigation.
Of course, I don’t have Dev, but I do have the information guild access card itself. Because Dev gave it to me in the first place.
But what if you have the means? There is a thing called proficiency in the world. There are bonuses that you can receive because you are a member of the same force as Employee D/C.
In other words, no matter how much I think about it, I’m not sure I’ll get as much information as Dev. In the end, it is a loss.
“So… you mean subtraction?”
“He was always in charge of investigations-related matters. “He is also the most outstanding among us.”
ah. Really.
I thought it was quite a blow when the members in charge of social skills were wiped out, but now that I’m faced with an information investigation, it’s really painful.
At this party, Dev secretly does a lot of work.
“….”
“Why are you doing that?”
“no. “I don’t think it’s helpful, so I just feel like I need to work a little harder.”
But why is he like this again?
Have you been feeling upset about not being able to detect demon energy in time these days? I think I just made a dejected face.
“You are doing well enough for the Inquisitor. It’s just that each person has different talents. “Don’t worry too much.”
“Yes… of course.”
I saw the Inquisitor clap his cheek.
“I have my own business.”
Really, both Dev and Inquisitor. It was a strangely breathtaking feeling.
* * *
“The guests have left.”
“Yes, you had a hard time. “Go out and see.”
Meanwhile, Leon Soseongju took a deep breath immediately after hearing the deacon’s words.
And when the butler was completely out of sight, he raised his hand.
“Oh, it smells fishy.”
The naturally frowning face looks as if it is trying to ventilate itself by waving its hand in the air nearby.
“This isn’t even the sea, so how can this body smell like seafood?”
Still, the smell that doesn’t completely go away continues to irritate my nose.
Leon Xiao Chengzhu headed back to the garden, covering his nose with a handkerchief. The garden that bites people has a strangely cool vibe even though it is full of flowers, trees, and blades of grass.
“I have no clue that someone might be chosen by the sea.”
Slurp. At every section where he stepped, sprouts sprouted leaves and branches.
It was not an unnatural growth, but it looked like it was lifting its head with overflowing life and energy.
“You turned a blind eye to my rampage in the forest as a warning, and even though I sent the children to give you a signal when you came here, you still managed to come to this land.”
And when he entered the maze in the corner of the garden.
Plants taller than a person’s height bloomed all at once. The unseasonable scent of flowers spread everywhere.
“Much less so with the words of filth.”
Even when he reached a certain section, the trees forming the wall had cut off branches on both sides. It was as if he was trying to show his true feelings.
“Eup eup.”
But the surprise didn’t stop there.
Among the split bushes, there was another Leon Soseongju with his entire body tied up in grass and vines.
“Have you waited too long? I’m sorry. But there was nothing I could do.”
Leon Xiao Seong-ju, who was looking at the tied person, or rather, something that pretended to be Leon So Seong-ju, grinned.
“I never wanted to see you get this.”
Passyuk. The love letter in his hand dried up in an instant and then turned into powder and disappeared.
“Ugh!”
The bound So Seong-ju’s eyes widened to their limits.
“Why are you curious about the contents of the letter?”
On the other hand, the one impersonating Leon Xiao Chengzhu smiled brightly. The white face and body began to slowly change at some point.
“A lovely thing.”
The flat chest and straight waist changed to look more like a woman’s, with the chest puffing out and the waist becoming concave.
The medium-length short hair is growing to the tips of the toes and at the same time is turning platinum.
“There’s no way you’d let me see it.”
Also, its soft eyes became sharp and its red tail feathers spread out.
The same goes for clothes. The outfit, which was just a little soft but common cloth, was changed to a silk material decorated with gold and jewels, with a white fur cape as the outermost layer.
Jangle jangle.
Earrings, necklaces and bracelets that swayed every time I moved, sparkling and shining.
Although he was human, his clothes and appearance were somehow not human-like.
[Loving something different. I understand. Humans are so foolish that they often don’t know the truth.]
Moreover, what makes it not human-like is the voice that resonates in a different way from that of humans.
[But not marriage.]
It moved away the plants, freeing Leon Minor’s limbs and removing the leaves that had bound his mouth.
“…you!”
However, when So Seong-ju was released, he could not move an inch.
The first reason was that the being made of white and gold buried its face in the crook of his neck, and the second reason was that it hugged his body tightly.
[I will never give up.]
And the third and final reason is….
[The only one who can stand by your side is this Biryuho.]
It was because the identity of the other person was something that humans could not handle.
[So stop denying it and follow the natural course.]
Ah. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have thrown food to the white cat that was wet and shivering in the rain.
[If you do so, I will gift you life that blooms even in drought and abundance that will never fade.]
Leon So Seong-ju, whose life was ruined by a single pity, sighed and closed his eyes.
He missed his lover.
