Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? - Chapter 67
◈Episode 67
It was meaningless to say from the beginning (2) to go back, but it was very easy to kill all the human traffickers—probably the Vipurit group.
It may have been because he killed one man with the first blow, blew off the upper bodies of six men with a slash, and jumped over the carriage, killing them all before they could react.
“Have you taken care of everything?!”
“Demon knight!”
“Wow, look at the sea of blood.”
Did he try to return as I said and then change his route to a straight line? Three people came running towards me from a diagonal direction.
I shook off the blood and picked up the lucky one who was still alive.
thud.
“Wow!”
Its body fell in front of the Inquisitor who was just running towards him.
“This guy…”
“He’s on the road to the underworld. hmm. Hey, can this hold on to your life?”
“It is possible. But is there a need to treat this?”
“There is no reason to keep him alive, but if you kill him, shouldn’t you get information and kill him?”
“That’s… true. wait.”
“You can just talk.”
Ah, good, good. I like dumplings that cook themselves without being told to do so.
I turned my attention to those who responded like glutinous rice dumplings. Now, there are faces in front of me who doubt whether I am a savior or a simple murderer.
“It’s okay now.”
At this time, the person who should be ahead is the wind hand. People’s eyes softened a little at the brown skin, braided hair with dangly earrings, and the unique physique of a sailor.
“It’s okay now.”
“…you are.”
“…Support personnel from Jakrati. So there’s nothing to worry about. “Just think about getting back alive.”
He hurriedly looked at the people’s faces and conditions. Everyone’s cheeks were sunken and their eyes were dead, as if they had been through a lot.
The children in the carriage were in a similar situation.
“First of all, I need to remove the shackles, so I need the key…”
“Please save the children first!”
“Please release the kids first! please!”
“…don’t worry. Of course they were going to release that one too. But you still need a key—.”
“Go away.”
“…?”
Do I really need to find the key or anything? If there is no road, just make a road.
I wrapped my hands and legs in magic and grabbed the iron bars. Sigh. The bars began to be pushed aside like curtains.
This is a technique I learned while testing how much damage magic power can increase.
“Wow.”
The children, who were not told to open their eyes, listened to the surrounding sounds and opened only one eye, let out an exclamation.
“What?!”
“Have you really transcended humanity…?”
“Hot, you were able to do that! “I will help too.”
While I was preparing a gap for the children to escape, the Inquisitor, who had attached the lifeline tightly, grabbed the chains tied to the carriage.
The chains are connected to the back of the carriage and to the captured people.
“You’re not going to do it by hand, are you?”
“It’s still too much for me to use my bare hands!”
“yet?”
She held the chain tightly in one hand and held the mace in the other.
“Wait a minute, it’s still too much…”
Clink!
The moment Mace hit the chain, the chain broke instead of being pulled straight. It happened because the force of the hold and the force of the strike were so strong.
Even the divine power wasn’t used like usual.
“…crazy.”
“…I shouldn’t be fooling around.”
That surprises me too.
Kimchi Dumpling, the next time you deal with me, take out your divine power and take out your mace. No, please take away the effort itself… I don’t think I’ll be able to get even a bone out of it if I get hit by that one.
“But even if you break it, won’t the shackles eventually have to come off?”
Regardless, whether that action had much meaning is not true. I gained freedom of movement, but it was a freedom that would come naturally once the shackles were removed. For example, it is a waste of effort.
“Huh.”
Damn, he’s not even an idiot, he’s like a dreamer. The foolish thing is cute as always….
“Come out.”
“Hi!”
It was now time to take the kids out.
Instead of opening the bars, I ripped open one of them. Some of the boards that were stuck in were torn off, but the hole was much wider.
At this level, anyone can enter and exit with ease.
I quickly trimmed the torn part with a knife and then took two steps away from the hole. The children hesitated and began to come out one by one, starting with the older children.
They all had good personalities, so the children who came out first even helped the children who came after them.
“Maya!”
“dad!”
At that time, someone called the child who had just gotten off the carriage. Dev was the man who was just removing his shackles with wire.
“Thank you, sea dragon, thank you, sea….”
“Daddy.”
As soon as the shackles were removed, the man ran to the child and held him in his arms. The child, who must be three or four years old now, swings his big arms and hugs his father’s face tightly. Even though she was at an age where she should have breast fat, her skinny cheeks were especially noticeable.
I want to cry.
“Um, Mom….”
“Uncle….”
“Cinta.”
“Nadi, come here.”
Starting with that child, the other children also began to find their own relationships.
That number was exactly half. The remaining children just shed tears as if they had no parents or adults they knew.
“Damn it…”
At that, Baramson washed his face dry. Dev was also removing the shackles without saying a word, but his expression was the same.
“I know the person who has that key…”
At that moment, a child quietly spoke to me. He was a very courageous and smart child. Both for talking to me and for picking out exactly what we needed.
“who.”
“She’s a middle-class woman with a red bandana on her head… and a wart on her hooked nose.”
Was there such a person?
I remembered the time when it was like a storm earlier. I don’t know if it was the person who was hit, but as someone who was upset, I couldn’t remember the details of that time.
Hmm, or is it the person you killed in the first place?
If you filter through race and gender, that person is the only one left through the method of elimination.
“…okay.”
good. Well, let’s check this soon.
I looked down at the child. He was such a small child that it was truly heartbreaking. I feel like praising them for doing a good job and feeding them lots of things.
“….”
But it’s just a guess, right? I twitched my right arm and eventually turned around.
Suddenly, I could see everywhere soaked in blood. It is said that they did not witness the killing itself, but they must have seen the corpse.
My mouth felt somewhat bitter.
Jinglang.
Still, my prediction wasn’t wrong, and I was able to obtain a key bundle from the guy I killed first. The speed at which people are released has accelerated.
“What should I do now?”
But the problem was what happened next. I can’t afford to handle these people.
“We can’t leave them alone like we did until now. “There isn’t even a fence here.”
Of course, we saved many people by coming here. As there were ten living things that were destroyed, the life expectancy of those who rescued them may have exceeded three digits.
However, it is not possible to protect them all.
We left them alive, trusting those who would follow. Even though it wasn’t safe there, I decided it was at least better than going outside.
But these? The situation is too bad to leave it behind just because you can’t afford it.
There is no geographical advantage, no ceiling to avoid the dew, and there is not enough food.
The decisive factor was the absence of a policy. There was no way to avoid the animals that roamed the forests and plains.
“If you leave it behind, there is a high probability that you will die.”
Even the Inquisitor said so. That was correct. Even simple animals were dangerous, and the ones roaming this land were demonized beasts. If ordinary people encountered them, they would most likely be killed in droves.
“But isn’t the distance too far for me to return alive?”
“──!”
But then a sound reached my ears.
Because it overlapped with Dev’s voice, I couldn’t exactly define it… but in a strange way, it was annoying.
“But we can’t just let them go. Above all, there are too many kids here.”
“I know, I know, but…”
I quickly raised my hand. The gazes of the three people who were discussing landed on me. I must have understood that this was a signal to shut up, so I said nothing more.
“──!”
I heard it again. Because it was far away, it sounded muffled, but it was clear. It was a human voice.
My body immediately took off.
“lily?!”
“Please, can’t you tell me something…?”
“I have to go too, people. “But.”
“I’ll go first, and you guys protect the people here!”
“Kkkkkkkkkk. I’ll leave it to you! “If you cause trouble to him, I will kill you immediately!”
“…You guys are so good at matching that guy.”
It seems like the wind hand is really picking on my back, but our dumplings are doing well.
I ran across the land with peace of mind. With each footsteps, my body moved straight through the air.
“run! “You can’t stop!”
And finally, the source of the sound came into view. It was a group of about fifteen people and a family of foxes chasing them.
They had red eyes, probably due to the influence of the Demon World, and their bodies were the size of wolves, so they looked very threatening. It was even more so because he was running as if there were no problems, even though he had several arrows attached to his body.
“…! person…?”
While I was running, I made eye contact with the person in the lead. ignored. My body hit the floor hard and rose into the air.
“What—!”
Wake up!
If I succeed in jumping over the group of people in a parabola, there is now a fox family in front of me.
I drew my scimitar. The sword struck diagonally upward and cut down a fox.
Then, the sword made a gentle U-turn and again made a diagonal cut from bottom to top, only in a different direction than before. The body of the little fox that was running towards me was broken into pieces.
Thirdly, hit it down. The sword that bisected the smallest one’s body vertically rushed forward one last time.
The final target was the male fox lined up at the end.
Phew!
The male fox that tried to bite me died instead, holding only the blade. The sword that had passed beyond the corner of the mouth and pierced the brain was spit out along with a stream of blood.
dump. The fox’s huge body was spread out on the floor.
“All the foxes are dead…”
“How can they not die like that…”
For some reason, there were a lot of arrows stuck in their bodies. These people attacked.
I retrieved the sword, confirming once again what was probably obvious. The sword held horizontally in line with my gaze feels slightly twisted.
Since this is a sword I picked up, I have nothing to say even if it breaks.
“Who are you?”
I thought it might have quieted down a bit. The person in front slowly approached me and started talking.
The wheat-colored, almost white hair, sharp eyes, and pointed ears and dangling bone fragments stood out.
Crash. My sword turned smoothly and returned to its sheath.
“It’s none of your business.”
I’m actually more curious about you guys.
Although he was being chased by a fox, he was unusually armed. This is a fact that can be seen just by looking at everyone holding a sword.
Moreover, some people say it smells similar to Wind Hand…
Are they pirates?
“lily!”
A voice was added without a single sound of footsteps. People turned their heads in shock at the secret. It was a bonus that the weapon was pointed in that direction.
“Hey, why are you so fast?”
But Dev is such a bold guy in a strange place. He just talked to me calmly, regardless of whether his eyes were focused on me or not, or whether the tip of the knife was pointed at me or not.
“What is this again? devil? “Did you hear this on the street and come to catch me?”
Dev succeeded in conveying a similar meaning to me without saying a single harsh word.
“And these people…”
Now Dev’s head turned that way. I don’t know if I’ve really found it and seen it now. I think not.
“Who are you?”
Maybe even pretending to put it on the back burner because of me was Dev’s arrangement.
“…after. I am Blue Moon Watia. My main occupation is a pirate… but I am currently temporarily serving as the action leader of the opposing force.”
Who knows why the person who recognized the face of the Wind Hand also knows the faces of other pirates?
“Resisting army?”
“Yes, Daejeonggun. I guess you haven’t heard the news yet? This is a group created to resist Vipurit and the pirates under him. “More precisely, to protect people from those bastards.”
Blue Moon said and glanced at me.
“We are looking for the people who were taken away… If you have the time, can we ask for help?”
“Do you think you know who we are when you say that? “Don’t you think it’s Vipurit’s gang?”
“Not only did he save me, but he killed that demonic beast? Wow. If it were those bastards, they would have left me to die. “And then they sprinkled powder on them and ran away leisurely from those animals.”
Is Blue Moon providing information in an easy to understand way, or is Dev just picking questions that inevitably lead to answers?
Thanks to this, my knowledge increases. Knowledge such as that the volunteer army is active, that both pirates and civilians belong to the volunteer army, and that the Vipurit group has a way to avoid those beasts.
“Is that so?”
“So what is the answer? “If it requires a price—.”
“Take him.”
And if you know that, I honestly think you know everything. Dev, you might want to dig into more details, but I’m already done with understanding the situation.
No matter how you look at the ‘people taken away’ that Blue Moon is talking about, they seem to be the same group that we are currently temporarily protecting.
If there is an organization that would accept them, it would be welcome.
“what?”
“I told you to take me with you.”
“…??”
After saying those words, I turned around and retraced the way I came. It was an act of trusting that Dev would solve the problem.
“…the people you are looking for. “I think we found it earlier.”
“What?”
Look! Dev does it!
“Why don’t you go see it first?”
“That’s right….”
A compromise was reached that was mutually beneficial, but seemed like my personality was at its worst.
“Oh, are you here now? “Where on earth have you been… Sister Watia?”
“…Suri? “Is that really you, Suri?”
“…Oh my god, I was worried because I heard there was no news from Montata when I went to explore, but you were here!”
“Who the fuck can say that! Your damn brother!”
If we go a little further, we will reach a sibling reunion that may seem like a trick of God.
