Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? - Chapter 209

Episode 209: Life is cruel (4)

“Not…!”

You can see the faces of the people across from you in great detail. But….

Blame it!

What if you only have one foot rest? There’s no reason to fall.

Coo!

I stepped on the collapsing bridge and ran. Perhaps because the distance wasn’t that far, one jump was enough to reach the castle.

The people who cried out to me in their own way froze with their mouths open. I thought it was such a blessing that I returned safely.

“The Merman is coming up!”

“Concentrate. “This is a battlefield.”

Separately, the fight is not over yet.

I looked down at the castle walls, which were safer than the turrets but more intense.

On the other side of the sea, something huge and unknown is approaching in real time, and the Mermen’s attacks are becoming more and more fierce.

“Damn it!”

The more the soldiers killed the Mermen, the more so it became. The body of a killed merman was either stuck in a thorn or filled the gap, making way for the next merman.

It goes without saying that the ‘Next Mermen’ are stronger elite soldiers than the ones that came first.

Mermen continued to cling to the castle walls, using the meat scaffolding and the increasingly higher waves.

When it seemed like it was in danger, the wizards were spewing out magic, and if I hadn’t killed 30 of them every 10 seconds with the magic spear at the front, and if the Inquisitor hadn’t protected the castle wall, it would have been breached a long time ago.

Ah, this includes the one that the Inquisitor occasionally goes over and pushes out with a golden membrane, as if cleaning a window. That knockback skill is secretly reassuring in that it doesn’t reduce the number of enemies, but widens the distance.

“There’s a hole!”

Then wait a moment. As soon as the Inquisitor withdrew his protection after consulting with the castle lord, perhaps trying to save strength in preparation for that huge thing, a hole appeared in the castle wall.

It was an accident caused by acidic liquid being vomited out.

“article! article!!”

However, it happened in a different district than the one I was in. The area I was in is rather peaceful because I killed so many Mermen.

I looked at him to see if I could apply or not.

“Go over there! “If you stray from your assigned location, I will cover it at my discretion!”

At that time, the soldier, who had returned from speaking politely to speaking informally due to the incident earlier, shouted. It was just a word, but it was the best assist.

widely!

I jumped straight to the hole.

“Geochang!”

“He is a warrior…! Stay in formation!”

Wow!

However, the new guy in the hole especially stands out. Although the legged merman is heavier than the footless merman, this is because it is unusually large and has a different color.

“Get out of the way.”

“If you disturb me for a moment!”

I guess it’s roughly an elite mob.

I drew my sword as I saw the guy unable to move easily due to the spears pressing on him from all directions. Wow! Merman bared his teeth at me who suddenly intervened.

Suddenly!

But what are you going to do if you show your teeth? Would I look after a harmful devil who destroys the ecosystem, not even a dog or a cat, or at least a pet turtle or a pet snake?

I ignored the rolling head and aimed my sword at the additional guy who came in. A magic spear was formed from the tip of the sword that moved smoothly and flew out.

Wow!

Good penetration! With this, you can kill two animals.

“It’s so reassuring….”

“More is coming!”

“Get ready to plug the hole!”

I kept kicking and slashing at the guys crawling through the hole.

Then the soldiers hurriedly brought something, sprinkled it near the hole, and put in a few iron bars. Although it wasn’t perfect, it seemed quite useful as a temporary fix.

Well, if you don’t think it’s going to work, you can abandon this wall and jump to the inner wall.

“Do you need help with the devil knight!”

Then the Inquisitor who was running this way shouted loudly.

“go away.”

“yes! “I’ll go help somewhere else!”

In response to my short answer, the positive king quickly left to apply for another job.

Piyuung! Puff!

At that moment, a signal came from the city I was standing against. Everyone except those who couldn’t hear because they were concentrating on the situation in front of them turned their heads involuntarily.

“The devil has appeared…?!”

The lord of Seongju, who had been encouraging the soldiers by personally stabbing the Mermen with a spear, let out a sigh like a scream. “That unknown identity is enough as a variable, but it’s a mess!” The face that says that is pretending to be cheerful. It may not be true.

“Magi…”

The Inquisitor also responded immediately. I guess it’s not unusual for a guy who appears from the city to have a scary face.

“We need to get help right away. “That’s comparable to the Great Devil…!”

“What the fuck? “How did they conduct the inspection?”

Deathbringer said what I wanted to say for the first time in a long time. I know. How did you conduct the inspection?

It would be ridiculous to think that the Great Devil was caught at the checkpoint and couldn’t come in.

“What’s coming from the sea isn’t the devil, so I’d rather be over there…!”

Quang!

“Call for assistance!”

“this!”

In the meantime, we cannot be in a situation where we can just leave the place – even though we now know that it is not the devil who is approaching us. The Inquisitor, who was trying to express his opinion to the lord of the castle, had no choice but to radiate divine power at the place where the request was made.

I also found it difficult to move because of the enemies rushing towards the second opening.

“What should we do, Lord Seong?”

“Damn it! Dietrich! Max! Franz! Request for support…!”

But… Anyway, let’s subtract three knights from here? Wouldn’t this be a bit of a handshake?

In that case, I think it would be better for the three drivers to stay and me to go alone. In the future, if there are multiple holes in the castle wall, it doesn’t look like they won’t.

After all, Elite Mermen can kill them too. It’s just that their processing speed is slower than mine, but they can cover one hole per person. There are three people in total, so if you each have one, you will be able to block three at the same time.

So in times like this, it might be better for me to go. No matter how strong I am, I don’t have the ability to block three holes at once.

“Send me away.”

“You…”

I said, killing another Orange Merman and then staring at the castle lord. When Seongju suddenly intervened in my presence, he asked, ‘What is this?’ I had eyes that said

It feels weird to say this, but I guess you haven’t seen me fight. If you knew my kill count, you wouldn’t react like that.

“I know you’re confident in your skills, but anyway…”

“No, Lord Seong. “If you’re that adventurer, you’ll be enough on your own!”

Dietrich, who was next to me, helped me. It was luck.

“I am confident that it would be better to send one knight than three. Please trust my judgment!”

“…Dietrich?”

She kicked the head of the rising Merman and slashed the top of his head with her sword, then looked at the Lord of the Castle with determination.

“Lord Seong, that’s according to my judgment. We’re not sure about the identity of the demon that appeared in the city… but a demon knight will definitely bring the best results. “He is the one who hunted even the greatest demons alone.”

The Inquisitor also gave his assurance with a somewhat guilty look on his face.

“In addition, we recommend that you issue an evacuation order just in case. “The force of the magic energy felt from behind is so strong.”

“…Damn it. “Is it that much?”

“Maybe it’s the Archdemon. And when it comes to the Great Devil… no matter how strong the Devil Knight is, it is difficult to cover the damage that may occur during the fight.”

There’s even an evacuation warning in case you don’t know. It was the best consideration for me as I was trying to move the battlefield somehow considering that people would get caught up.

Seongju looked slightly conflicted, but eventually shouted as screams came from various directions.

“Is it possible? Even without support from our side?!”

There was only one thing I could say to him.

“Don’t ask the obvious.”

The concept is never back down from facing the devil.

“good! Then, we will evacuate people through the western or southern gates, so keep the battlefield as close to the northern gate as possible! “All you have to do is get as far away from the area where the signal flared as possible!”

Seongju laughed as if he was crying and threw something to me. It was a signal that was fired upward when struck downward.

“You know how to use this, right? There will be support from the Adventurer’s Guild and the Magic Tower… but just in case they need support from us—” I asked

why they gave this to me, but I wondered if it was insurance in case something happened. Perhaps because he is the lord of the castle, he is very thorough.

“There is no need for support. The same goes for the Adventurer’s Guild and the Magic Tower. “Don’t even think about disturbing those who will only die if they come, and don’t even approach them.”

But it wasn’t a very necessary item. I think the Magic Tower could still be helpful, but the Adventurer’s Guild is all close-quarters jobs. And melee occupations don’t have much meaning unless you can draw sword energy at my level.

Even if you come, you’ll either be a spectator or get caught up and get killed.

And the wizards of the Magic Tower are actually… a bit slow because they move so slowly. Well, the fact that I have an aggro focus skill doesn’t mean I can use it to prevent aggro attacks from going to wizards. If the devil uses even one wide area skill, the wizards will be killed in droves.

Rather than fighting with such a nervous heart, I just end up fighting alone.

“But…”

“Tell it. “If you really want to help, introducing yourself will help me.”

“…First, let me convey your opinion. However, don’t be too proud to take the flare itself. “Because the lives of those evacuating are at stake with you.”

Well, it’s just like taking a flare for insurance reasons. I was also a little nervous about solo play without waiting for a pinch hitter, so it’s okay.

I took the signal flare that seemed to have no use and left the castle walls.

“Demon knight! Please take care of yourself!”

“You need to be careful!”

The two people’s worried voices echoed from behind my back two or three times.

* * *

Cheongsanho wiped his broken forehead with a calm face.

There was a lot of blood, but there was no great emotion. All I could think was, ‘I’ll have to visit a priest later.’

“Are you alive?”

“…still alive.”

This is truly unlucky.

Depending on the devil you contracted with. Or, it is said that the strength of a demon contract varies greatly depending on the amount of sacrifice offered… but it is inevitable that you will face off against someone who is one of the strongest among them.

“It’s a good thing I wrote a will in advance.”

“Do not speak like someone who has accepted the day of death. “Don’t you think I’m going to die too?”

Cheongsanho summed up his regrets in one word. The escort immediately made a move.

“Let’s be realistic: how likely are we to survive?”

“You are a great sage, but would you live in vain like this?”

“It may be unfortunate news for you, but I am the one who falls behind in the field of combat among the great sages in existence.”

Cheongsanho made a joke that didn’t seem like a joke, saying that it wouldn’t be surprising if he died weak. bang! The secretary’s huge hand struck them.

“Please avoid!”

“If I could have avoided that, would I have become a prosecutor or a wizard?”

“Then shut your mouth! “Because I’m pissed!”

“It’s not a good example of what you say to your employer. “When I return, my salary will be reduced.”

“Even if it’s a pay cut, please let me go back.”

The guard caught him just in the nick of time and took a step back. Pow! Cheongsanho helped them retreat by suddenly throwing an explosive material at the secretary.

Even so, the sum was good.

“It’s worth the money spent. Isn’t that right, Great Sage?”

Even though the opponent is one of Cheongsanho’s main customers, he has prepared very sturdy clothes… Even though none of their attacks are working.

“Who made it? It’s obvious.”

“Isn’t it time to be proud…?”

“You have to admit what you have to admit.”

The elegant frilly shirt and long skirt tailored to the leg line are one of his masterpieces. Even though it was in the hands of the enemy, Cheongsanho did not doubt the completeness of the work.

Although it is so well made that it is giving him trouble now.

“Unless you bombard it with large-scale magic, it won’t tear.”

“…Can you please sell such items to the other party?”

“Then our magic tower will be destroyed. “You won’t even be able to earn your salary.”

“under. there’s nothing we can do.”

While the comic talk to laugh at the gloomy situation continued for a short time, the secretary came running towards them, destroying the building.

This area was not a private residence, and people who had come to do their own business evacuated after hearing the commotion, so there were no casualties.

Quang!

Of course, it will happen if they die.

“…!”

The item used by Cheongsanho bound the opponent’s feet, and the magic unleashed on his hands was about to unfold.

A frost storm hit the streets.

“You should use it right away!”

“Wow.”

“Ugh!”

I skipped a few steps before activating the magic, and the magic shook my insides.

If this part was omitted, wouldn’t the power only decrease and there would be no problem for the caster? Cheongsanho wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

“I don’t know if I can stop the ritual.”

It’s almost completed… The moment Cheongsanho was about to say that, the ice caused by the frost storm broke spectacularly.

The enemy is the one that approaches like an animal hiding in the bushes and running out as soon as its prey approaches.

“Great Sage!”

I can’t avoid this.

Cheongsanho’s cool mind made a decision. It looks like his life will end here. I didn’t have any regrets.

“I will destroy the city starting with your blood…!”

Do you have any regrets about your studies and your grandson?

“I wanted to see that kid complete his research…”

His consciousness was cut off before he could be hit by a huge hand. It was a reaction to the frost storm.

Quang!

However, before the drought, pitch black leather pants appeared at the edge of my vision.
