Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? - Chapter 244

Episode 244: Even in a life like this (7) After

parting ways with Meister, Deathbringer thought over the words he left behind over and over again. But each time, there was only one conclusion.

It’s probably not possible, though.

“I don’t remember… any…?”

Could it be that the Demon Knight has no memory of himself? Even if it’s not completely absent, are there some things that you can’t remember in parts?

no way…?

“That can’t be possible…”

It’s extremely rare for a demon knight to reveal his or her intellectual abilities, so we can’t be sure. But from what I’ve seen so far, he doesn’t seem like the type of person with a bad memory. It was the same decision, even considering that he did not express it himself.

I have never seen him evade due to forgetfulness or panic due to forgetting. In other words, at least I am not a person who forgets trivial and trivial things.

However, it is also true that the Meister’s words are too much to ignore.

So is the first evidence that provides all this speculation that the Demon Knight bought his own information. Considering that the act of purchasing is usually done out of necessity, the fact that he bought his information comes down to only one conclusion. No matter how hard I tried, it was like that.

“No, I guess so. No way…”

But but.

Is it possible to live solely for revenge, holding on to the moment when one’s family died in an incomplete memory?

…Could there be such a person in the world?

“Probably not…”

He may have just been curious about how much information about himself had spread. At that time, he had just begun his life as a fugitive.

If you want to live with your identity hidden, checking the amount of information that has already been spread is essential. Concealment becomes easier only if you know that and prepare for it.

So, it’s not strange at all that he’s buying his own information… It’s not strange… It’s strange… Even

if it was information that the guild already had, it would have taken several months to compile all of it. That means the demon knight had been thinking about escaping for several months… Isn’t this even weirder?

“It shouldn’t be so…”

Then you really had a blank space in your memory and asked the guild to find out about it?

“It shouldn’t have been… I should have…”

If you come up with a better hypothesis, it becomes miserable if you come up with a contradictory hypothesis.

In that gap, the Deathbringer’s lips trembled. I don’t know how much space the Demon Knight has in his memory, but my sorrow grew as I realized that it was at least not small.

“Damn it…”

That’s right, if the demon knight’s past delivered this time was the cause of his escape, and if the lost and regained memories were what made him move.

Is that margin really that small…? I even forgot that I had lost my memory until recently?

Even if he was aware of the loss of memory, it was still devastating. If you were aware of forgetting, you would normally try to retrieve your memories right away. Nevertheless, he only recently made the request, and doesn’t that mean he hasn’t placed any value on his loss?

In other words, he lived with the attitude that it was okay to lose his memories as long as he could respect revenge.

“Are you fucking human? Are you a human?…”

Is that really a human? Wouldn’t it be better to call it a golden beast? That’s what life is like.

…ah.

Is death really the only thing that can save you?

* * *

The interrogation did not take long. Because Daniel wasn’t involved with him that long.

However, the intensity of the betrayal he felt was not proportional to time.

I knew it. I knew it would be like this. The anger welling up scratched his skin and constricted his lungs. The pain was so severe that it felt like my insides were being scratched with a fingernail. My head was dizzy.

But what if I collapse here? That’s probably something the devil who deceived him would like.

Daniel clenched his teeth and controlled his blurry vision. I didn’t know if it was really resolved. My chest felt tight and I had trouble breathing a few times.

I wanted to die. No, I wanted to kill him. He wanted to tear apart the mistake that had once again deceived his enemy.

He really was that damned devil who killed his parents and then turned a blind eye to him.

『I don’t know what the misunderstanding was, but please stop. I may be saying this because I don’t know much, but… he didn’t seem like a dangerous person.』

『Yes. I haven’t been around for a long time because I was busy looking at the store… but I had a similar impression. He doesn’t seem like a person who would have done something wrong.』

『Ugh, that guy? It was great! He showed me the knife, let me touch it, and even gave me some bangsho! What a good man. I want to see you again. Shall we come again next time?』

…But on the other hand, I want to ask. Why on earth did you do that? They say that the devil is born from malice and moves only with malice, but how can that be?

I wonder if it was so much fun to be kind to those who were left behind and win their favor with the same hands that killed my parents.

Suits still wants to see you.

“…I got permission from the captain. “Rest early.”

“no. “I’d rather work…”

Daniel chewed his lip in response to his senior’s consideration. I wanted to do something to avoid letting out my anger that I had no way to express, but objectively it didn’t seem possible.

This is evident from the fact that he is angry at the consideration of his senior. No matter what he tries now, he will never be able to control his anger. Even if it’s just an act of trying to relieve anger.

“…sorry.”

In the end, he apologized through gritted teeth. I couldn’t help it. I hate myself for not being able to control my personal feelings when everyone else’s situation is not good, but stubbornly expanding the scope of the nuisance by not acknowledging it was hateful.

It is more beneficial for him to be out now.

“Don’t worry too much. “I can do more work next time.”

Daniel reluctantly nodded in response to his senior’s consideration. His body fell toward the lodgings he had prepared earlier.

“Are you sure you’ll be okay without an escort?”

“I’ve been doing well without you so far. “Please give those who already have a lot of work to do a rest.”

However, someone who could not be ignored caught in his sight.

The anger that he had been barely suppressing spread out and took over his mind. If it weren’t for the patience and faith I developed as a Heresy Questioner, I would have run away.

The person who walked out with the last of his patience stretched out his hand with gritted teeth.

“Arch Mage.”

His hand grabbed the Archmage’s wrist in a slightly uncouth manner, but not at a level that could be perceived as hostile.

“You…”

“I don’t know if you remember.”

The Archmage’s eyes widened, as if the embarrassment he got from remembering the other person’s face was greater than the discomfort of suddenly being held by his hand. It seemed like he had no intention of removing his hand.

“Just remember. “How could I forget you?”

Thanks to this, Daniel’s anger calmed down a bit. The other person, who was quite old, just looked at me with a straight, puzzled look without any negative feelings, so I felt a little less angry.

The fact that the other person was not the target of my resentment also played a role. He barely let go.

“If you do, won’t you please talk to me?”

However, just because he has become less angry doesn’t mean that his anger has completely disappeared.

Daniel said, still putting pressure on his molars. The sound coming from a blood-lined neck is closer to that of an inanimate object than that of a person. It was that hard.

The person who didn’t know anything suddenly hardened his expression.

“…Sure.”

The good news is that the other person was quick-witted, befitting the name of the great sage.

“If you’re going to have a conversation, it would be better for you and me to move places.”

Daniel also did not reject her offer. Anyway, it was not pleasant for him to argue with the Great Sage in front of everyone. Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, that is not behavior worthy of a priest.

“Go to your dorm.”

“yes.”

So he followed the Archmage to his quarters. The anger that boiled like an active volcano did not cool down easily even after moving for nearly 10 minutes, but it was better than nothing. I have a little more room to think than before. Just a little more, really.

“It’s just a place to sleep, so there’s nothing special. Please understand.”

“it’s okay.”

There’s no way you would expect that in a situation like this. I don’t have the mentality to accept hospitality anyway. Daniel accepted the other person’s understanding. Okay. The tent was pulled down just in time.

“Damn it…”

The person who was curled up and crying until he could barely breathe was suddenly revealed to their view.

“you?”

“…?!”

Of course, the Archmage who saw it and the person who saw her crying also jumped up in surprise. At least Daniel was like that too.

“…Would it be better if I came in a little later?”

In a profession where serving others is a virtue, it is difficult to cheer up in the face of other people’s tears. This is the same even if the person you are crying with has a very difficult relationship and is completely angry.

The size of my anger was so great that it only made me boil even more… but it would be wise to be patient. Daniel spoke with difficulty.

“Please.”

The Archmage affirmed.

“why.”

Somebody wasn’t.

“After all, didn’t I have business to attend to? If you have something to say, say it now. “Don’t make me look twice at your face.”

The person who rubbed his cheek with a strong hand raised his body. The eye area, which has become sunken due to fatigue, has become deeper and deeper, like a cave.

“Anyway, there’s only one thing you have to ask, right?”

And in the corner of those eyes, the only thing with light twinkled. Although green symbolizes nature, the eyes remind us of prosperity rather than prosperity and death rather than life.

“So tell me now.”

Is it because his eyes are not just pure blue but also have a strange cloudiness? Because that tingling resembles the thickness and discomfort of swallowing poison?

no. Maybe this problem isn’t just about his eye color itself.

“Say it!”

Despair, frustration, resignation, futility… Those kinds of emotions are the greatest harm a human can have.

“Try swearing at me in front of me!”

But now Daniel is not in a position to recognize and consider it. That was the problem.

lily. The word that refers to the wrong thing that deceived everyone broke the dam that was barely holding on. Or, the faint faith I felt when pronouncing it triggered the trigger.

“You think I can’t do it?! “Do you think I can’t do it?”

The anger I had been suppressing came out through my vocal cords.

“I didn’t mean to trust that guy! “Once again, despite knowing how wicked and abominable the devil is!!”

“I am not an abomination!”

“Foolish! Even after falling for his deception, you still want to believe him!? He even betrayed your defense and the testimony of my precious people!!”

“I did not betray you!”

“If this is not a betrayal, what is a betrayal? I trusted him! I decided to believe in him as you do! But what is the situation now?! “Isn’t he the devil after all?”

“shut up! Don’t call that person a devil!! “You, who haven’t seen anything, aren’t the kind of people you can call lightly!!”

“If I can’t argue, who can?”

“me.”

At that moment, an unusually calm voice intervened among the shouting. Pow! The sound of a strong impact followed, and the next thing that happened was someone fell.

“…?!”

“what.”

“…you.”

Daniel, who had been hit in the face with a fist and was crumpled, blinked. Right in front of him, brown and pink hair sways.

“What are you doing!”

Pow!

Of course, Daniel tried to put more emotion into the fact that he had been beaten rather than questioning the situation. What stopped it was a series of kicks. With a precise kick to the chin – the Meister didn’t faint with just one kick, so he struck a few more times – and the Heretic Questioner’s mind was suddenly cut off.

The Archmage, who was at a loss for the situation that was moving too quickly, and the Deathbringer, who was angry, froze with their mouths wide open.

“Dead?!”

“Did you kill him?!”

“He’s not dead.”

“He’s not dead.”

No one noticed that Berserk was behind Meister and that she had spoken.

* * *

The Archmage closed his eyes for a moment, leaving the dizzying situation behind. In the darkness, the events she had experienced over the past few minutes were listed one by one.

The first was a meeting with Heretic Questioner Daniel, and he asked for a conversation, so I moved, and not only was there a passenger named Deathbringer in the new seat, he was crying.

Yes, this was the starting point.

So where did the incident get so serious? That would have been Deathbringer’s first argument with Inquisitor Daniel. The fact that the Heretic Questioner fought back instead of avoiding it probably played a significant role, but anyway.

Now, finally, how did the situation end? She was in a state of panic, unable to stop or watch the two arguing, and in the meantime, a Meister approached…

…and before the Meister could recognize him and give him time to greet him, he struck Heretic Questioner Daniel and knocked him out. ! Yes, I knocked him out by punching and kicking him!

The Archmage, who organized his memories to understand the situation, fell into shock again. It was an action to regain my composure, but because the development was so strange, it only made me dizzy again.

But who wouldn’t? One would think that someone who suddenly intervened would end the entire argument with his fist. Moreover, the main job of those who use fists is to seek knowledge.

“That person. So, this is….”

“I heard you called me?”

Meanwhile, the other person seems to have no regrets about what he has done. I completely ignored the person I had knocked out and looked for the business that had come here. The Archmage was once again speechless.

I tried calling Boo. Although it is true that he tried to ask Meister to talk.

Isn’t it a bit of a conversation in this situation…?

“Aren’t you looking for me?”

“That’s true…”

“Then let’s talk.”

“No, that.”

The problem is that the Heretic Questioner is unconscious at your feet. The Archmage couldn’t bear to say anything and just lowered his gaze. The meister’s gaze also lowered accordingly.

“Oh, it’s okay.”

“How could it be okay!!”

Suddenly, the Deathbringer exploded. Before, it had been an explosion of sadness and anger, but now it was an explosion composed only of confusion and bewilderment.

“But after thinking about it, I think everyone would believe me if I said I hit that bastard because I was angry.”

“Do you think that will work!?”

“You said it would work?”

“Not only do you not believe it, but if that’s really an excuse, isn’t there something wrong with your life?!”

However, the opponent was not easy.

“I’ve always lived like this.”

How did you raise Cheong Cheong-ho’s grandson?

The Archmage wanted to see his friend’s face right away.
