Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? - Chapter 65

◈Episode 65: If there is a God (8)

“Hey, Archmage.”

“Why is that?”

“I just remembered, what happened to the decision to dispatch a great sage?”

“Hmm. “You came here, right?”

“…?”

“…greatness.”

“…Surely you?”

“Hehe hum.”

“This trash—.”

I was wondering how the Zakrati people and the church reached a truce. And by the time they caught up with me and reached the next enemy stronghold.

The Archmage was caught by the collar by Baramson due to a contract issue.

If it weren’t for the words that one of the wizards said without notice – the great sage who was to be dispatched took advantage of the absence of the Archmage to urge him to sign a contract – he might have been caught until now.

Or so. If Baramson had not sent half of his men to ask for help in the city known as Luwan or Luwin, he might have been beaten with curses by his party.

“If you don’t pay the penalty, I will kill you.”

“…Don’t worry, I will pay by selling the great sage’s invention.”

Still, the power of money was great. Baramson somehow held back his anger. It was great patience.

Quang!

“Oh… it looks like the situation has finally been resolved.”

“…If it weren’t for the demon knight, you would be dead.”

“…I guess I should thank him.”

Of course, as revealed in that conversation, my performance had an effect on that patience. When you see someone destroying a living thing with cancer alone, you will gain a little patience that you didn’t have before.

“I think I can survive like this!”

“You understand the topic well.”

I grabbed the boss of this living place – if you can even call it a boss – by the neck and threw him to the floor. At this distance and this stance, I can react and respond even if he throws a curse jar.

“Don’t expect to live by doing something like this.”

“Sigh!”

When people are strangled, they usually try to remove what is strangling them.

This time was not much different. The subject grabbed my hand that was holding my neck and tried to scratch me or aim for my eyes.

Crack.

“Gagging!”

However, that was the defeat of the opponent. I was stronger than him. And by holding its neck with just one hand, I was able to break its resistance with the other.

The man, whose arms were twisted like screws, was completely subdued with only a groan.

“Wow, you’re carrying something dangerous around your waist.”

Meanwhile, Dev, who had come near me, fearlessly pulled something out from the waist of the man he had suppressed. It was a jar that I had seen at Garorimryang’s fortress.

I don’t think he was even there when he threw it, but I don’t know when I saw it.

“That… gasp.”

The boss was rubbing his broken limbs and trying to reach out. But Dev has already stepped down. Even if the guy’s arm was intact, it’s doubtful whether he would have been able to catch Dev.

“Now we can interrogate him.”

What Dev said is correct. That’s what they captured alive in the first place.

But…

considering the concept, I looked down at his neck for a moment and stroked the hilt of the sword. The Heretic Questioners who were trying to drag the target flinched for a moment.

“lily?”

Thank you for speaking to me at the right time.

I turned to Dev’s words. Then, as I entered the living quarters, the marks left by the slashes began to fill up my field of vision.

Those are probably the things that made the Heresy Inquisitors, who instill fear in the face of faith, notice me.

“I think it would be better to sit here and rest today.”

You haven’t lost yet?

I listened to the Archmage’s words and glanced up at the sky. It was definitely an ambiguous time as the scarlet color gradually mixed together. It may be a small number, but the number of people is now close to a hundred.

“An investigation is also necessary.”

That too.

Earlier, all the evidence evaporated due to the hasty purification, but this is not the case. The jar containing the plague curse had to be analyzed, and the reason why executive-level humans had suddenly bulked up had to be found out.

Anyway, even if I transformed like that right now, I wouldn’t feel much, but the final boss of one quest would be different again.

“How on earth can I achieve this level of concentration of magical power?”

“Look at this, the cross section is rough. “Cohesion is not perfect.”

“The cohesion is not perfect, but does it take that form and fly this much?”

“You’re crazy. “If I ask you to write it again, will you listen?”

But is it possible to investigate when wizards are actually doing that?

What else is the degree of magical power cohesion? Isn’t the rough cross section just an effect?

No, of course, sometimes it cuts smoothly and sometimes it doesn’t. Does that have any meaning?

Clap clap

Then the Archmage clapped his hands. Because the hands were covered in fur, the sound was somewhat muffled, but that became a characteristic. The wizards raised their heads when they realized they were all archmages.

It looked just like a meerkat.

“Could you hand it over to me for a moment?”

“yes? yes.”

The Archmage looked at everyone and received the curse jar from Dev. It was a jar with something written all over it, and even to an outsider, something strange could be sensed.

“A jar containing the curse of plague. “Is there anyone who can analyze it?”

“Me!!!”

“I will do it!!”

…It’s being investigated.

Is the Archmage a god?

“Take it. If you break it, your life will be at risk, so please be careful.”

“Thank you so much!”

“Let me watch too!”

“Is this a jar containing a curse?”

“It’s an elaborate shielding spell. “I had no idea that devil worshipers would create something like this!”

“Is what’s inside a curse?”

“I couldn’t hide the unique feeling of Magi. Are you sure.”

I was worried in a different way now. Aren’t they opening the cap or breaking the jar on purpose to look inside?

“We found the captives!”

“…!”

But the worry did not last until the end. The topic immediately returned.

Adventurers were popping open one of the underground doors and sticking their heads out.

“wait!”

The wind hand came out first.

“I’ll go too!”

Next was the Inquisitor. Some of the priests who were capable of healing followed them down to the basement. The intention was to treat the injured among those captured.

Of course, the question is whether they will accept the treatment… but since the wind has gone, I think it will work out somehow. It’s not my part.

“Then I’m going to go check and see if there’s anything hidden here.”

Dev also went into hiding to fulfill his role. The only one with nothing to do was me.

To be honest, the Archmage doesn’t move, but he can join the wizards and investigate magic.

Until recently, I had done almost all of the work.

“Oh, that’s right. “I’m talking about the dragon’s corpse. You somehow saved your share.”

Well then what do we do now? If you look at the concept, you have to rest and move forward right away… Oh?

“I wanted to take care of you as much as possible, but… I’m sorry. “A quarter of the body was best.”

what? I got my share? As if that wasn’t enough, my stake is as much as 1/4? Are you really giving that to me?

“Even if you’re not satisfied with it, please watch it.”

I clenched my fists.

How can you not like it! This is the reward I gave up on receiving in the first place!

I liked it so much that I almost gave it a thumbs up for a moment. I was satisfied to that extent.

“I left it at the temple for security purposes, so you can take it with you when you return to the mainland. And again… The Adventurer’s Guild said they would make a second medal for excellence, so go get it. “Take it with you when you return to the mainland.”

Medals of merit are of little concern.

It is true that it has a lot of uses, but if you already have one, getting more would be a waste of inventory.

I roughly thought about what to do with the dragon’s corpse. Although it may not be possible to replace all the equipment, it was still a fun thought.

“A hostile target exists within a 30m radius.”

At that time, a notification signaled to me. All of the enemies in the existing mountain lodge were either dead or captured, so it is highly likely that they are new enemies that have appeared.

My steps quickly reached the wooden fence.

Kiuuuu!

A strange crying sound reached my ears. It was the type of crying I once heard while researching data.

“Magi!”

The Heresy Questioners belatedly tried to approach me. It was at that moment that something came into my field of vision. A deer was seen through a gap in a tree trunk.

“Erosion of demonic energy….”

To describe it more precisely, it was a deer that had been demonized, its skin peeling off in places, revealing its flesh and bones.

“Deer│A poor animal that was eaten by demonic energy and turned into a demon. This animal, which originally only ate grass, can now eat everything.”

Poof.

As soon as I found it, I jumped over the fence. It was a little gross, but the devil is the devil. If it was seen, it had to be removed.

Squeeze!

In response, the deer also started charging towards me. The horns on top of its head have become grotesquely larger and sharper, taking on the shape of a complete weapon.

“Enjoy rest.”

Suddenly!

But I, who caught a dragon, should kill a deer!

I pulled out the two-hander and cut off the neck and body at the same time, then stepped on the fallen head and crushed it.

From the split head, like a ripe watermelon, something black and crushed appeared. I can’t see any wrinkles, as if the brain had been eaten away.

“I will purify it!”

As I wiped the blood off my sword, a Heretic Questioner came running from behind, panting. He knelt in front of the deer’s corpse and slowly began to recite a prayer.

However, if it had been kimchi dumplings, the purification that would have ended in the evening lasted for about 3 minutes. Just because I did that, the sweat on my cheeks was a bonus.

Although it was only one drop, its very existence seems to show the difference in skill between an Inquisitor and an ordinary priest.

“….”

Separately, what happens now? No matter how you look at this, it’s a time attack.

I was immersed in agony while maintaining social distance from the Heretic Questioner, who was radiating divine power. In the sky, gold is slowly overcoming blue.

“Whoa.”

And when the Heretic Questioner finished purifying me, I turned around and returned to the living room. My eyes quickly scanned the crowd and found Dev.

“Did you find anything?”

“uh? “There is still only one.”

Maybe it’s because it’s so rare for me to speak first. Deb, who had just come out from searching a place, perked up his ears and shook his head.

“Instead, I found a letter telling me where to send someone—”

I

snatched the paper that Dev held out to me and quickly scanned it. Send it to the base under Turtle Rock. That was the clue.

「❖ Fang aimed at Jakrati

∎ Finding the base of Vipurit’s gang 3 / ?

∎ Elimination of Vipurit’s gang’s base 2 / ?

∎ Bonus: Killing Vipurit”

has been updated once again, and the count of quests with a fixed form has risen sharply.

“Be careful coming up.”

“It’s the light of the rain…”

“I survived…”

At the same time, those who had gone down began to come up, supporting people.

Fortunately, it seems that the situation with the church and you die and I die did not happen. But that doesn’t mean I’m receiving their help.

“First of all, let’s start with treatment…”

But that was enough for me. It’s enough if you can communicate easily.

“Demon knight?”

“you guys.”

I showed the letter to the people who had just come up past the Wind Hand. In my mind, I was thinking, ‘Do these people know how to write?’, but it was already done. It’s enough if I sing it with my mouth.

“Does anyone know the location of Turtle Hand Rock?”

“…Turtle hands?”

“If it’s turtle hands…”

Was it because I spoke in a high-handed manner? People were scared and started fighting over their wits. My eyebrows furrowed.

“People are surprised when you ask such a straightforward question.”

Fortunately, the wind hand intervened and mediated between me and the people. Is it because we are from the same region even though we live in different cities? People listened carefully to what Baramson said.

“If it’s Turtle Rock, you can get to it by going over two hills.”

Anyway, soon the words I wanted came out.

The location has now been determined. You can depart.

“It’s a base under Turtle Rock. “That’s next.”

“…I think I know the answer, but I’ll still ask. “You’re not planning on leaving right away, are you?”

“You son of a bitch… what are you planning to do by gathering people together…”

“I haven’t looked through everything yet.”

In order: Inquisitor Archmage Windhand Debra.

I returned the letter to Dev and walked away. It was no secret that Dev screamed and flailing his hands at the fluttering letter.

From now on, I will force myself to control my fatigue as much as possible! The concept is just a concept, and no matter how you look at it, since it is a time attack quest, you have to get through it quickly!

“Oh, if we leave now, people will.”

“It’s not wrong to move quickly as it is clear that demonization is taking place, but the problem is the people.”

“yes? “Do you mean Demon World Flower?”

“for a moment? “What is going on?”

“Isn’t that what Demon World Flower is? “Do demons arise?”

Inquisitor and Windhand Dev each tried to show their own reactions to my actions that did not disappoint their expectations. This would have been the case if it had not been for the remarks of the Archmage, who had witnessed what had just happened thanks to remaining on the ground.

“…Then we must advance immediately. “The longer we leave it, the more dangerous this land becomes.”

“Demon Demon World in this land? Wait, what about people? “What happens to these people!”

“Wow, are we going to make it with this army? No, more than that, you really don’t stop even for a single step!”

The three people each responded in different ways to the newly added problem.

me? Of course, I’m ignoring them all and going on my way. It is true that the discovered victims need relief, but it is not my responsibility.

If it’s not something I need to do, it’s better to just stop worrying and focus on what I can do.

“I think it would be better to split the number of people, Inquisitor.”

And of all the things I can do, there is only one thing that is the most helpful and the best I can do.

“I will stay here and lead them. “It is in charge of protecting and purifying people.”

To advance at full speed and slaughter them all.

“Instead, you three should follow the demon knight first. That will be more efficient.”

The party split up.
