Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? - Chapter 169

Episode 169 Next (2)

How many times did he run and watch the situation to make sure no one got caught between the vines?

I thought Biryuho couldn’t move while I was using my strength, so I thought about giving it a shot… but I gave up after seeing the vines growing too quickly.

If you float in the air to cut that thing down, you might lose your footing and fall. Now, it was more important to hold out among the purple shoots growing thick and thin.

Quad deuk.

Still, the growth rate of the vine began to slowly slow down, wondering if it would continue to grow infinitely.

It was then that I had time to look around.

I checked with my son-in-law to see how far this plant, which resembles a lantern, had spread.

Fortunately, it didn’t penetrate the cloud layer.

“…is it lower than Jack’s beanstalk?”

Still, at this point, it can be compared to any high-rise building. In my experience, this is roughly what it feels like when you climb up a building over 100 floors.

So, can we say that this vine has grown to approximately 500 meters? It’s much better than the last time, when we were thousands of meters in the air. Although it’s still not above ground.

I looked down, wondering when I would be able to step on the surface and raid.

The distance is far away and full of vines, so there isn’t much that can be seen… but at least I know that these vines have covered the whole forest area. I also did a good job of not dragging people along.

There are Devna Camburgh Castle lords who were evacuating to the rear, but they will be surrounding Ednium Castle lords, so I think they will probably be okay. No matter the depth of my worries, the reality is that I can’t go see them right away.

Rather, if I had to choose someone I should be worried about right now, I think it would be the people I was fighting with.

Even though I saw the Archmage taking care of the Inquisitor earlier, I haven’t seen the Berserker since I missed it.

“Oooh! “It’s a big tree!”

Let me correct this. It was stupid to worry about Berserker.

“Thank you. “If it weren’t for the Inquisitor, this old man would have died today.”

“Don’t say that. “It was something that had to be done.”

“Where are the others…”

“Oh, I think they’re over there!”

We also found out the location of the Inquisitor and Archmage.

I removed the sword stuck in the tree trunk, looking at those who had survived five or six trunks below. It is a sword that is temporarily inserted into the body to stabilize it.

Sigh!

The silver sword came out, breaking the purple wisteria-like shell.

“But where did the tiger go?”

“Berserk is there too. But Lake Biryu….”

“I’m not sure about the location of Lake Biryu. Negativity vibrates from all directions….”

Well. I thought that was the starting point.

I turned the longsword between my fingers, changing from inverse to integer.

‘come.’

My instincts whispered. The arm holding the sword is quickly flipped over so that the blade stands vertically in front of the body. The forearm of the right arm supported the middle of the blade.

bang!

Immediately after, an intense force struck my blade. If it hadn’t been for magical power, the sword might have broken. It was such a powerful force that it made me think that way.

“Demon knight!”

Hwiik.

Fortunately, that force only pushed me outward and did not chase me all the way. The force of the throw was so strong that it did not fall down.

As I was flying, my body spun around and stepped on a stem that was growing perpendicular to the path. widely. The body that jumped heavily with a light gesture rushed towards the thing that attacked me.

“Did you think a surprise attack would work?”

[I’ll make you regret not dying at once…!]

Kaaang!

My sword and Biryuho’s nails clashed. The repulsive force is stronger than before, perhaps because it has awakened from Biryu Lake to (Jin) Biryu Lake.

Since his other hand was still free, he could easily aim at me.

“Is it there!”

Before Biryuho’s fingers could reach me, Berserker rushed at me. Across from me, the Biryu-ho attacked from the rear, swinging its halberd widely.

Although I was within the attack range, I was able to avoid Biryuho’s attack thanks to this.

I stepped back and stepped on another stalk. Biryuho appears to be clinging to the ceiling by jumping upwards and sinking its claws into the vines.

[Get out of the way if you don’t even know the topic!]

And right before Berserker jumps up and cuts his body.

As the Biryu roared, something translucent jumped out of its body.

It’s an effect that makes it look like the soul is sticking out… but it seems to have physical powers. The whitish thing’s headbutt threw Berserker off balance.

Berserker failed to achieve what he wanted and fell back into the vines below. A whitish spirit body in the shape of a tiger is aiming at Berserker with brightly shining eyes.

I think it’s an alter ego pattern or something.

Burbubbuk!

[Pfft…!]

Then thank you to me. We are not people who fight together, but we specialize in fighting each other individually.

I fired at the timing of Biryuho’s self-immolation – I didn’t know what he was going to do at the time, but I fired it anyway – and checked that the magic spears were well embedded and prepared for a second attack.

The sword cut down where Biryuho was. The heavy stem shifted with a crunching sound. I feel like I barely managed to avoid collapsing thanks to being tangled up in other things.

Crack!

“…!”

But that’s not the problem.

I frowned at the grass that suddenly grew on the surface of the vine. That’s why they caught my ankle.

Biryu Horan even rushes at him.

“Demon knight!”

“I can’t help you because the distance is far…!”

I don’t really need any help.

I threw the long sword upward and pulled out a two-hender. Is it difficult to get the timing right due to the drawing time? You can do that by using inventory.

Because I also have contact-type inventory instead of bag-type inventory.

The magic power consumed is quite large, so I can’t use it often, but once or twice is no problem.

So, I placed the two-hender in my contact inventory with my right hand and summoned it again with my left hand, which threw the long sword. The two-hender crashed straight into the tree trunk.

Ground crash. The magic power spread out in all directions, shattering the lantern I was standing on and pushing Biryuho backwards.

Pusssssuk.

I jumped from the scaffolding that was about to collapse. If you catch the falling long sword in the process, it is now back in its original condition.

I ran over the vines, being careful not to get caught by the plants. Biryuho, which had been pushed away, also turned into a half-animal and followed me.

“Ugh! This is shameful, comrade in arms! “You’re the only one fighting with the funniest guy!”

Is the alter ego luring the other side or something? Berserker’s voice became distant.

Now I really don’t have to worry about team kills. Since the Inquisitor and Archmage are far away, I can’t expect any help from them.

[Kuhung!]

At that time, Biryuho waved his hand. In response, the giant tiger’s front paw struck the spot where I was.

So bad. With that one blow, the stem was cut into four pieces. My body quickly stepped on the piece floating in the air and jumped, sending out several pieces of sword energy as if fighting back.

A clump of vines that were so broken that they could not be supported by their entanglement alone fell to the ground.

Crash.

It doesn’t matter though. Biryuho and I kept going. The forest of these trunks was very wide and had means of ascending and descending.

Suddenly!

I cut down the next platform of the Biryuho and climbed up.

Then, as if in revenge, Biryuho cut off the base. The supporting part was cut off and the vine, which was floating in the air, naturally fell down.

This feels completely different from fighting a sea dragon.

It’s similar in that you have to fight while relying on a thick, twisted cylindrical platform with the risk of falling in mind, but that’s it.

I jumped out loud as I saw the Nunchul shaking like this. The hem of the dress spread out on both sides like a swallow’s tail, and the branches that grew out of nowhere seemed as if they were going to pierce me.

What’s more, behind it is the maw of Biryuho, which has become a beast.

As my body rotated to cut Deungra and made eye contact with Biryuho, I held out my sword forward and made him look directly at me.

Bombard. A line of magic pierced Biryuho’s throat. Of course, Hogu continued to approach me as if he was willing to endure this much pain.

widely.

Should I dive into his mouth again like this? The moment I had that thought, the stepping stone I was trying to cross finally reached my feet.

Quang!

There is nothing to be afraid of as long as you have room to step. My body, which gave strength enough to crush the stem that served as a foothold, shot forward like a beam of light.

By activating the three claws, the number of sword strikes used to cut the tiger apart will now be three.

[Crack!]

Even if it can withstand a penetrating wound like Bombard, it may not be able to withstand a sword that has the power to cut your face into four pieces.

I clung to a vine as I watched Biryuho transform back into a humanoid.

Biryuho, who had not noticed any damage in his animal form so far in his human form, covered up this injury by pointing to his face. Blood is flowing from between the skin covered with hands.

Damn it.

The black hole in the center of his chest is bigger than before.

The cloudy red eyes gritted their teeth and then roared.

His hair stood up like a lion’s mane, but soon became as long as a silk hem. It was just like Jang Sanbeom.

Fasssssuk.

What pattern is this time?

I hurriedly ran to see that the vine I was hanging on had suddenly withered.

However, the next step was in a similar state. More precisely, all stems formed above a certain height.

Quad Deuk!

But it doesn’t stop there, it grows new. Then it breaks again. It is a repetition of creation and destruction.

‘It would be easier if we burned it all down.’

No, this is a bit Eva! Even though the kids moved irregularly when using the flying bell as a stepping stone, at least it didn’t collapse when they stepped on it!

The standards for creation and destruction are not even consistent! Is it random?! Is this a gacha stepping stone?!!

I gritted my teeth at the level of difficulty that made me swear. I’m a little curious about what happened to the others, but even that immediately took a backseat to the impending crisis.

Biryuho, the only one enjoying the freedom of footing, ran at me like a wild dog.

My body spun around.

Suddenly!

I may not have the protection of the stem, but I still have the claws. I launched three half-moon planes to keep the Biryu in check, and then stepped on the scattering scaffolding.

Survival instinct? That’s almost all of the cooldown time.

I’ve never thought that my sense of space was poor, but I wasn’t confident even in situations where tree debris was raining down and withering and growth were indistinguishable.

If I were to just run, I wouldn’t know. Even more so now that I’m fighting with Biryuho.

“Poison 7%.”

At that time, a notification appeared that I had not seen in a long time, notifying me of the poison gauge. The cause seems to be flowers that bloom occasionally, but it varies greatly.

My teeth clenched and it grew like a tentacle to avoid chasing me. And I ran using the thickest one among them as a path.

The part I stepped on crumbled quickly, but fortunately my body was more agile.

[Die!]

My feet jumped up from the vines and crossed my fingernails with Biryuho. Sparks flew hundreds of meters in the air, and the magical spears I had managed to create while suppressing my dizziness penetrated part of Biryuho’s body.

Dealing with it is my victory. Damn it, I’m about to fall.

“Poison 10%”

Grumble.

The wind hit me hard and made my clothes and hair flutter. The purple flowers in full bloom are sending out reddish powder in all directions.

The scent is so fragrant that it makes my head dizzy.

And after I had spun around a few times and somehow managed to dissipate the impact, my leg collided with the thick trunk below with a loud bang.

Thanks to the magic power, my body didn’t shatter, but the stem tilted and my body slipped.

It’s not like snowboarding. Sawdust flew like snow.

Sigh.

How many tens of meters did he get pushed back like that?

I managed to get over to another ridge and started climbing again. The Biryuho is running towards me very comfortably, with its branches only growing underneath me.

[Human—!]

“Die!”

The rising and falling Biryu Lake momentarily intersected and changed each other’s positions.

My tightly held two-hender parted Biryuho’s side, and Biryuho’s nails scratched my shoulder.

Okay.

Blood splattered everywhere.
