Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? - Chapter 385

Episode 385 Even if I shake it off again and again (4)

“Don’t follow me.”

Berserk watched the wizard and the departing adventurer and stopped the young hunter from following them. It wasn’t necessarily out of consideration for adventurers. As it happened, she also had something to say to the young hunter.

“sorry.”

When he thought the adventurer had gone far enough, he snapped. Because there was no subject, the girl and the young hunter momentarily looked confused. The two people’s eyes were for a long time trying to determine whether the apple was intended for someone.

“Is your arm completely healed?”

However, when the conversation continued, the expressions of the two changed completely. The girl said, ‘Oh, it’s not me.’ He turned his gaze to the other side and the person who had been confirmed as a party pricked up his ears and expressed surprise.

“Everything is healed.”

“I see…”

Of course, Berserk also knows the power of the Inquisitor. It’s natural, as I’ve experienced it myself a few times. Since the Inquisitor had stepped forward, the Deathbringer’s arm would definitely have been attached well. It was as if time had been turned back more clearly than anyone had ever cured.

“sorry.”

However, no matter how carefully you turn it, the fact that it is broken cannot be erased. It will be that way forever, as long as they remember it.

“Please don’t apologize.”

Therefore, Berserk apologized and Deathbringer refused with a clogged throat. The corners of his eyes, which were red as if he was about to shed tears, turned down, unable to meet his gaze.

“That’s actually what I want to say.”

The echoes of those who left unforgettable wounds on each other began to resonate in empty pupils.

“You just did your job.”

“Don’t you think I’m that kind of fighter?”

“I…”

“What’s wrong with caring for someone who is more important than anyone else in the world? “Even if it were me, I would have done it like a warrior.”

“….”

“So don’t feel sorry for that action. “I won’t be sorry about that either.”

“….”

“I will only apologize to Nari’s older sister. “I have absolutely no regrets.”

However, the echo did not disappear into emptiness like usual. Their words entered each other’s hearts, just as sound flowing through a mountain valley reaches the person standing there.

“okay.”

Berserk ended up laughing because he couldn’t cry.

“I don’t regret it either.”

A feeling of emptiness, not knowing whether it was painful or relieving, swept over her. It was an emptiness that made the air, which I had never thought of as cold, feel cold.

“I won’t regret anything, just feel sorry for your broken arm.”

“…I guess so.”

If this emptiness continues for too long, she will completely freeze. You’ll just become a stiff person who won’t even be able to take a step forward.

“Daejeonsa…”

But all that coldness was forgotten by the warmth of the child touching me from next to me.

Berserk wordlessly stretched out his arms and placed the girl on his legs. The panicked girl tensed up like a trapped rabbit, but soon relaxed.

They leaned against each other, driving away the cold that surrounded them. Just as humans in the past tried to overcome the harshness of this frozen land, it became even more intense because it was the only thing they could do. That’s how I held my breath.

Then, General Dong, who had been aiming for their hearts, finally cried out in resignation and retreated. It was their victory.

“…If I go south, I will hold my sister’s funeral. “Will you attend?”

“Well… won’t your sister be angry if I go? Anyway, there is something I did…”

“Vidr is a person who is satisfied with saving someone by sacrificing himself. So I won’t be angry.”

“Is that so? Well then… I’m honored. “I will definitely go.”

However, did General Dong, who left, really retreat completely? Could it still be wandering nearby, aiming for their hearts?

Berserk thought about this for a moment, then lowered his eyelids as he looked at the small body temperature in his arms and the heat in the distant area.

Even if she were the target of that monster, as long as this warmth stayed around, the monster would not be able to get away.

“okay. thanks.”

These tiny little things will keep her alive.

A fall fell briefly between my closed eyes.

“Huh!”

“…?!”

Was the problem between the two of them resolved like that? A loud cheer erupted from the two people who were doing their best to restore the dragon’s heart. A clear yet youthful voice. It clearly belonged to the Inquisitor.

“San?”

“Puh-ha!”

If you turn your head in surprise, you can see the Inquisitor sprawled out on the floor and Daniel, who looks like he fainted in the evening. Despite the cold air around them, their cheeks are flushed with heat and they are exhaling steam.

“Are you okay…?”

The young man with his ears and tail upright ran out first. Naturally, it is the Inquisitor who checks the situation first, not Daniel.

The man who had his eyes closed as if he had fainted suddenly opened them and then closed them again with an expression of no expectation. Cheolpudeok. His body seemed to have completely lost its strength and melted into the floor, even more soggy than before.

“It’s okay. “It’s just because I used too much force.”

“Look at the sweat. “Aren’t you going to catch a cold like this?”

“It won’t happen. “Once your strength is restored, all the diseases will run away.”

“Deb Show is so confident that he feels insecure…”

Still, I don’t think he will ignore it until the end. After realizing that the Inquisitor was fine, he walked towards Daniel.

“Are you alive?”

“…I’m alive.”

“I’m completely exhausted.”

An Inquisitor overflowing with divine power will not die if left on the cold floor. However, although Daniel has a strong body like an Inquisitor, he is an ordinary person with little divine power.

“It’s so heavy…!”

Deathbringer, who knew this, began to help Daniel up. It wasn’t that easy due to the size difference.

“…I’ll take care of it later.”

“That’s Okay. “Don’t you know that you don’t even have the divine power to cure a cold?”

Still, I somehow managed to get him on my back—even though his feet dragged—and he began to grunt and come closer, step by step. Rather than leaving it alone and empty, I thought it would be better to move it to a place where there was a bonfire.

“Young hunter, do you need help?”

“I think it would be nice to have this….”

“Okay.”

However, Daniel now has dozens of kg added to his original body, including leather clothes. Deathbringer, who normally would not have been able to bear the weight of the leather, eventually asked for help.

“Please stay with me for a moment.”

“yes.”

Berserk placed the girl on the floor. Of course it wasn’t on the bare floor. The adventurer’s sleeping bag, which had been in place from earlier, began to support the girl’s buttocks again.

“It would be better to take out more sleeping bags.”

“Hold on a moment.”

Deathbringer, who was struggling to reach down with one arm and rummage around for something, soon took out something that looked like a chain. sparkle. Objects fell from the air along with light. They were all blankets or sleeping bag rugs.

“I’m glad I forgot to give it back to you.”

The items they take out were originally theirs—since they couldn’t carry them, the adventurers took care of them—and I don’t feel guilty about that. I just feel sorry that I forgot to return it.

“I should have taken it out separately sooner.”

“Ugh.”

“There’s nothing we can do because everyone has forgotten.”

After the adventurer woke up, he ate right away and then had a serious conversation, so he completely forgot that this rug was there.

Deathbringer and Berserk chatted and laid Daniel and Inquisitor down on the rug.

“Tsk!”

It is the girl’s job to cover them with a blanket as they lie down.

“Everyone is gathered together.”

However, by that time, the adventurer and wizard had returned. As expected of people who have been outside for a long time, the cold air is gently flowing out of them.

It was a chill that would have made ordinary people complain of frostbite and cry out for treatment.

“Aren’t you cold?”

“Okay.”

Just by looking at the cold clinging to their clothes, you can guess that their body temperature must have dropped like that of a corpse. Nevertheless, the reaction was extremely indifferent.

It’s been a while since I was quite impressed with Berserk. It was an admiration that took into account the unexpectedness of a wizard who seemed weak even though he was an adventurer who was originally strong.

“You survived the cold well.”

Even she is not confident that she can survive this place, which is colder than the mountains of Yeonggwan, for long. As expected, the wizard seems to have some tricks.

As I spoke with that thought in mind, the wizard’s head slightly lifted. Although she is covered by a mask, it is not difficult to notice that her gaze is directed in this direction.

“….”

However, the wizard, who seemed to be about to say something, eventually closed his mouth. The silent wizard’s body retreated to a corner.

“Are you two awake too? “I have something to say to everyone.”

“I’m awake…”

“Huh? “Did you say it?”

“…I’m sorry for waking you up.”

I have no hobby of forcing myself to talk to people who don’t want to talk to me. Berserk respected the wizard’s retreat and turned fully towards the adventurer.

He is looking pitifully at the Inquisitor, who suddenly wakes up from his slumber as soon as he hears his voice.

“You can sleep more. “It’s not urgent.”

“Oh no! “Speak up!”

Of course, the Inquisitor tried to emphasize that he was fine. However, if you say it with a feverish face, will the adventurer really listen?

She eventually lay down again and took a nap thanks to the adventurer’s hand. It was a moment when the conversation was postponed until dinner time.

* * *

“When cooking this much, it’s good to add this much salt.”

While Daniel and the Inquisitor took a nap to replenish their stamina, we prepared dinner. In the process, it was a bonus to receive recipes from Deathbringer.

“Wouldn’t this be bland?”

“The beef jerky is seasoned well so it’s okay.”

However, I am not sure if the day will come when the recipes I learned this way will actually be used. This is because while they are with them, the Deathbringer will try to catch the ladle, and after returning to Earth, it is clear that he will not be able to attempt it because the ingredients will be different.

After all, where can you find beef jerky on the market that has been pickled in salt for over a month? If you really want to look for it, there is nothing you can’t find, but it is clear that it is not a commonly found item.

In other words, it is a memory that can only be experienced here.

“Now, is it really?” Even though I said

, “It’s really perfect….”,

I memorized the recipe again and again, to no avail. Not only was it nice to see the excited Deathbringer, but it was also right to keep memories that cannot be captured in photos as much as possible.

“So what was it you were trying to say earlier?”

“hmm? ah.”

I handed the tasting bowl (the contents remained) to the snooping girl and lightly scratched the back of my neck.

[I want to taste it too.]

“Oh, wait a minute.”

The voices of Suzaku and the girl happily sharing food passed by like the background.

“I’ll tell you while we eat. “This is something that would be good for everyone to hear.”

“Oh, I understand.”

Since this is a matter entirely related to the magician who is a temporary member of the party, it would be better to say it in front of everyone. I put off the conversation like that.

“What!”

And when everyone woke up and continued eating, I explained everything I had heard. I expected it, but as soon as the Inquisitor heard everything, he was jumping up like a spring.

“This is… what should I say…”

Daniel, who was eating soup with a tired look, had a similar reaction. The expression on his face is truly disturbing.

“You can’t just ignore it.”

“But if it wasn’t for her, this situation would have been…”

“That.”

You can’t avoid being accused of a crime, and it’s difficult to ask about it right away. Especially since the wizard has been active and has knowledge that will be helpful in the future.

In the end, the faces of the Inquisitor and Daniel became wrinkled with worry.

“I don’t think it’s been that long since we broke up, but we’ve been through a lot of things like this.”

“I’m not sure….”

[Uhm. I don’t know… This is a problem for humans, so why don’t they decide among themselves?]

Meanwhile, Berserk and the girl Suzaku are running away from this difficult problem, each making their own excuses. I’m a little jealous. Because I was there at the time, I can’t avoid it if I get told, ‘Say it too.’

“Hey, by the way.”

However, when we continue to worry so intensely. Deathbringer raised his hand cautiously.

“What is that wizard? “You said you provided crucial help by blowing a huge black hole in the sky.”

“That’s right.”

“And that wizard is a puppet of Arrogance? “Are they at a level where they can be used as consumables… worthless puppets?”

“…It’s blatant, but you can still see it that way.”

The commandments you hear may be very unpleasant, but they are not wrong.

I expressed some affirmation as I caught a glimpse of the commandments in the distance towards the cave entrance. Honestly, it was so true that I couldn’t deny it.

“So…are you saying that even the subordinates of the great devil called Arrogance, who are used as consumables, can use such powerful magic…?”

“…uh?”

“…Are we sure we can win?”

Well, now I’m in bigger trouble.

Damn, can we really win?
