Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? - Chapter 221
Episode 221: The World (6)
“Why Why Why…! They are not your responsibility! Don’t fall for that damn bastard!”
…That’s how it should come out!!
* * *
Boom!
“Ugh!! “What are we going to do now?”
“How can I hold on like this….”
Boom! Another huge crash sounded and the building shook.
Damn. The powder that falls with the earth shaking is flowing down from the cracked walls and ceiling.
I have no choice but to hold on. The Meister’s mouth, which he was about to say, was glued together as if glued together.
“…Will the building collapse before then?”
“Fuck you!! “I refuse to be buried alone with you!?”
“You think I want to be buried with a fool like you!? In normal times, someone like you wouldn’t even be able to say hello to my grave!!”
They screamed as if they were going to grab each other’s hair, and then gritted their teeth as they saw the griffon crashing into the building again.
If we didn’t want to create the misunderstanding that we were getting along by building a tomb in one place, there was only one way.
“…I have no choice! “I have no choice but to kill that guy!”
“Okay, but what about weapons!?”
“Don’t ignore Meister Ha’s attack and defense!”
The meister’s hands moved to the production tools. These were tools normally used to cut metal or to melt or freeze something.
Bang bang!
“If we keep doing this, we’ll all die!!”
“Noisy!!”
Rattling rattling. The meister urgently tightened the fasteners and attached a simple handle to create something. Crack. He knocked a few times, and flames flew out like a sigh from the front.
“Okay, taste the fire!”
Hwaaaaaaaaa!
The Meister poured it straight into the Gryphon. Heat poured into the beak and head feathers that entered the building.
Keekeeeeek.
“Did it work?”
The griffon’s head briefly escaped the building.
And….
Quang!
“Aaaah! “You just got more angry!!”
“Damn, I improvised it and the firepower…!”
The griffon crashed into the building as if telling me not to dream. Even if they no longer stick their heads in, they are trying to destroy the very structure they are in.
The Meister’s mouth became dry.
“Damn it, are there really none of your brilliant inventions that could be of help at this moment!?”
“What are you saying when you have nothing to do—Ah!”
At that moment, Meister’s eyes lit up at Deathbringer’s words. What was caught at the tip of his pupil was a magical battery.
“Ugh! Why are you so far away? “If you don’t want to break your head, at least protect your head!!”
“Just shut up your babbling mouth!”
The Deathbringer was the flagship and surrounded the Meister. Wow. Things fell from the ceiling and rained down on their heads.
If it weren’t for Deathbringer’s protection, the top of Meister’s head would have been hit by falling stone fragments.
“If that happens… But…”
However, Meister is not a person who has developed enough character to express gratitude for each and every such thing.
Instead of thanking the Deathbringer, he muttered and rolled his head.
Wouldn’t it be gratitude if they let me survive here? I didn’t even have those feelings. It was a great decision that did not ask for the opinion of the person who was actually supposed to receive the greeting.
Wow!!
“shit!”
Meanwhile, Deathbringer, who was saving Meister from the stone fragments, whipped his head around while swearing between his teeth. This is because the gryphon, which had been crashing into the building with its massive body, raised its head again.
However, the problem is that part of the wall collapsed due to the griffon’s headbutt. The griffon kept crashing into the crushed wall as if it was trying to make a hole!
“Hey, how do you do this?!”
If it continues like that, the building will collapse or the wall will collapse and the griffon will come inside.
And neither of those two endings are good for them.
Deathbringer knew this and grabbed the flamethrower again. I know I don’t have enough firepower, but I wanted to use my gums in a hurry.
“Answer me you crazy wizard bastard!!!”
The Meister stood up with a sound like a crow.
“It’s like this! It’s like this! Are you done?!”
“is it so. That’s it, you bastard!”
“Then just hold on!”
“What the fuck?!”
“I’m going to blow that damn bird’s head off, so buy yourself some time!”
“Tell me that from the beginning! I’m omitted that I like my hair good! ”
Still, it seems like a new way to overcome this situation has emerged. Deathbringer gained some hope from the statement about blowing off the bird’s head.
Quang!
…Although it’s unclear whether it would be quicker for the damned ink-eater to blow off the bird’s head or for it to break through the wall and shove them into the mouth.
“Eat it up, you devil!”
However, it is a position that has already been forced (forced) into the same boat. Now that the crisis of sinking is just around the corner, we have no choice but to cooperate in order to survive, even if we do not believe in it.
Deathbringer, who did not want to die at the same time as Meister, sprayed flames as he had been taught.
Wow!!
The gryphon screamed as it thrust its head and front paws into the hole like a cat trying to catch a mouse.
The response was even better because the Deathbringer fired fire at the flesh that looked particularly soft.
Quang! bang!
But even though its feathers were scorched and its tender flesh burned, the griffon had no intention of giving up.
No, rather, he attacked dynamically. When my eyeballs were almost cooked, it seemed as if the medicine was no longer enough to give way to evil. The yellow, elongated toes resemble the forepaws of a hawk and have sharp black claws.
Bang bang!
Meanwhile, the wall with some cracks and holes broke even more due to the guy’s struggles, doubling the size of the gap.
It was a shock that if Meister had not planted rebar inside the wall to increase the security of his workshop, it would have been breached a long time ago.
Puhwaha kakak kak.
“what is this!? Why stop!?”
However, as if something had gone wrong, the lump of scrap metal that was spraying flames disappeared. Deathbringer tried to scratch the surface of the thing a few times, but that was it.
After spitting out a few more flames, it died as if it had accomplished its mission. “Waaaaaa!!” The Deathbringer screamed as his weapon disappeared.
Bang bang!
On the other hand, Gryphon’s momentum became even stronger. As the heat coming from inside disappeared, they began drilling holes even more persistently.
Sigh!
“Fuck yes! “Let’s see if you die or I die, you big-headed bastard!!”
Deathbringer, who narrowly avoided the Griffon’s claws, picked up the unholy sword, saying it was his life. “Even if I die, I will rip your throat out and die!!” Akbari’s own roar seemed to have had some effect, and the griffon retreated.
square.
Maybe it was because of the damage caused when the swinging claw and the unclean sword collided. The griffon kicked the wall with its hind feet, alert to the sharp wounds on its front feet.
“Damn master Nari! Are we still far away!?”
“Almost done!”
Was the Deathbringer doing everything he could to block the entrance?
He didn’t just play around as a meister.
Clap, clap, clap.
He was gathering all the scrap metal and equipment in his studio to create a device.
“What is that!?”
“Disposable products with a market value of 610 million gal.”
If you add up the purchase price of the equipment used for this, it will be approximately 610 million. And if this goes according to the theory he came up with, that griffon’s head will fly off and this pile of equipment will also melt.
“It’s fucking expensive….”
“Cheaper than my life.”
However, this equipment is trivial compared to the many things he will do in the future.
Meister used all the items he had accumulated over a decade without hesitation. By removing the outer plate and only the parts, or using the outer plate as a fixture, something amazing was created.
Gang.
“Good.”
“Is it done?”
“When I give you the signal, lie down. “It’s the same one I shot from the castle wall earlier.”
“I heard it costs 30 million gal to make that thing.”
“It only takes one year to work on it. “In that one year, we will have been eaten a thousand times and left behind. Do you want to wait?”
“no.”
People in the world may not know this, but being able to replace time with money is also a kind of luck. Originally, there is nothing more precious than time.
“Okay, you bastard brat with no mother or father. “You made my child’s equipment melt, so I will melt yours.”
So the Meister said so and inserted a horsepower battery into the last circuit. The magic battery he was swinging so hard earlier was shining brightly.
Quang!
“So open your fucking mouth! “I will give you a light beyond your uvula that you will see for the rest of your life!”
And at the same time, the wall collapsed and the Gryphon stuck its head in front of them.
“It’s okay.”
The moment the meister pulled the trigger, a huge wave of magic pierced the griffon’s mouth.
A beam of light that melted everything in a straight line shot out from the ground toward the sky.
.
.
.
Knock knock knock!
“Ha, that’s it.”
“Sick. “Has it finally happened?”
One side of the wall was torn down by the griffon, a beam of light was emitted, and the impact caused the ground to shake once more.
As a result, the fragile building collapsed, and Deathbringer and Meister, who were trapped in the collapsing ceiling, barely escaped from the rubble.
“after. “For the next workshop, I will definitely do the ground design first.”
“Please do it. “Don’t do this again.”
It was truly fortunate that the entire structure did not fall, but only the ceiling was torn off. If not, I wouldn’t have been able to crawl out like this.
“shit.”
Well, at any rate, it is a fortunate level of misfortune, although it is not really luck itself.
Meister’s face distorted as he looked at the inside of the workshop, which was in even more disarray due to the collapsed ceiling. Even if this damage was repaired, it was questionable whether anything would remain.
“Ooh…”
On the other hand, Deathbringer was impressed by something else. This is because what was seen as soon as the wreckage was lifted was the corpse of a griffon with a gaping hole in it.
“There is a neat hole…”
It is similar to a circular mold stamped on bread dough. The head completely evaporated, leaving a round mark on the remaining body.
It wasn’t just the gryphon’s body, but also the building. I couldn’t observe it with my own eyes because it was so dazzling, but a valley appeared along the path of the light beam.
Not only the Meister’s workshop, but even the building across the street!
“…Isn’t this effective even against the Great Devil?”
“I don’t know. “There has been no testing to see if this is stronger than what was fired from the castle wall, and we have never properly measured its power in the first place.”
Money goes out every time you shoot, so how can you measure the power? However, this one seems to be stronger than the one fired from the castle wall.
It seemed like the magic power in the magic battery wouldn’t be enough, so I installed seven precious magic power amplification devices – all of which would be worth about 300 million gal at best – installed.
“…are you alive?”
“What the fuck?!”
“Not the Gryphon, but this.”
“I’m so fucking surprised!”
While Deathbringer, who was trying to stab the griffon, took a step back in surprise, Meister grabbed something from the bubbling molten metal.
As a result of firing the magic cannon, most of the equipment was melted, but there was something worth salvaging.
“Five… this is quite a bit…”
Three of the magic power amplification devices are likely to wear out soon, and two are in good condition. Two of them completely melted.
Still, isn’t this a complete luxury? He thought it would be okay for all seven to melt.
“This is okay too… “This too…”
When I squatted down there and rummaged through the pile of iron some more, surprisingly, all the major parts were still alive.
The condition was… bad, but I was able to use it right away anyway.
“If I do well, I might be able to shoot one more time.”
Of course, if you do it well, it really does. I don’t know if I can actually shoot it.
In theory, the formula for flying with wings turned out to be soaring when put into practice, which is what magical engineering is all about.
“…is that true?”
“I’m not sure. “There is so much equipment that it wouldn’t be surprising if the circuits melted right away.”
Rather than risk your life in such uncertainty, it is better to just give up comfortably. After all, you can’t just carry all of this around and join the city army.
The Meister prepared to leave after taking only the purification device he had previously targeted and a weapon – a poker – just in case.
“What are you doing. If you’re going to live there—”
“Then why don’t you make it and give it to me?”
“what?”
“I heard you can shoot me one more time.”
“I’m sure I said I wasn’t sure, right? And putting that fact aside, why should I give it to you?”
Even products that are almost broken can be used again if you take the time to fix them. Then do you know how much it will cost?
The Meister’s mouth, which was about to say that, was closed the next moment.
“I’m doing it to give the devil a shot.”
…That was a bit of an embarrassing story. When I went back to the castle wall, I already knew that this weapon wouldn’t work on that monster… Wait. no way?
“…are you going to go where that fire giant is?”
“yes.”
Deathbringer gathered up the equipment that Meister had left behind. It was ridiculous, let alone the roughness of his hands that would break things.
“You want to go to your deathbed? it’s crazy?”
“If I die, will I die or will you die? “I’m going alone, so just make it for me.”
“You crazy bastard…”
Has this idiot forgotten that all the labor and materials required to make it come from him? Of course, he is saying that he will bear the entire risk of taking it to the devil after it is created, but…
“Why on earth?”
“Sennim, no, the warrior went there, didn’t he?”
Even though it’s frustrating to watch, I don’t want to let that guy touch anything. Meister went back into the building and snatched the items from the Deathbringer’s hands.
He seemed to have decided that it would be better to hand it over to him rather than let me, an outsider, touch it, so he gave it to me.
“Because the warrior Nari has a quick body, there is a belief that he will be able to escape if it is really dangerous… but the warrior Nari has nothing like that.”
There are times when he is surprisingly agile despite wearing armor on his body… but that’s just the average person’s standards. If Demon Knight or Berserk are the point of comparison, Inquisitor ends up being a laggard.
“I don’t know why, but the fact that the devil came to us means that the devil has spread within the city. In a situation like that, it would be best to deal with it quickly and join the city army rather than leaving the hero trapped over there.”
Moreover, the Inquisitor has the ability to protect many people with an omnidirectional shield.
I don’t want to say ‘Berserk is less worth helping than Inquisitor’, but realistically, Inquisitor can help more people right away than Berserk.
“So, hurry up and make it. “Shoot the archdemon in the head and bring a hero.”
Deathbringer finished his speech, despising himself for being weak and having no choice but to prioritize and help.
The Meister’s eyes sank.
“Crazy guy.”
“What the fuck are you going to say?”
“Do you think you can shoot it if I make it for you?”
“You just have to let me know!”
“There’s a high chance of something getting damaged along the way, so what are you going to do about it? “You’re not asking me to tell you how to fix it, are you?”
“No, then what should I do….”
“I’d rather shoot it myself than stick it in your stupid head.”
Meister thought with his rational mind.
This was crazy.
“And if you really want to help, you should do something more efficient, you idiot! Open the safe inside! “Break a waterway and flood the area over there!”
It was really crazy.
* * *
There seems to be some misunderstanding.
I don’t feel responsible for them, as one of the voices said. It’s not like I’m coming forward because I think I have to take responsibility.
Cancer: Being strong and having to save them were two different stories.
“Then why…!”
So, if we had to distinguish this, it would roughly be morality. Or goodwill.
My morals are that I think this is right and I just can’t ignore them.
“That’s…”
Ha, a saint was born. Well, I’m glad I did now.
“But…!”
Oh, that doesn’t mean I don’t have something to say to you. It’s a bit of a relief to know there’s a way to go home… but there’s no benefit to me looking after you for putting me through all this trouble.
「…!」
Exactly. If the lights go out in a hurry, I will reveal everything you have hidden, including who you are and why I came here.
So you shouldn’t even think about hiding it anymore.
Ha, something like that.
“Why are you…”
I smiled faintly, putting away the sarcastic voice and leaving it in a crying voice.
I know it’s stupid. However, if you can return home anyway, it is right to move more and save people, even if it is difficult. That’s the right thing to do.
There are so many people I could save if I just worked up a little.
“Huh…”
A teardrop fell down my cheek at the awkwardly muttered words. It was quite comforting.
I don’t know why you stayed silent, but I thought you were the person who would cry for me.
“I wasn’t bringing you…you, you…”
There was someone who complained on my behalf about the sadness that I couldn’t let out on my own…
That was truly comforting.
