Omniscient First-Person’s Viewpoint - Chapter 256
EP.256 The Country of Steel and Faceless People – 5
Even right before entering the deepest control room, the regressor and Historia couldn’t come to a conclusion. Anyone other than them would have been in the same trouble.
The regressor shouted lines that I don’t know how many times I’ve repeated them.
“Because it’s blind and killing everyone isn’t the best!”
Historia responded in a similar tone.
“There is no other way. Why can’t you kill a helpless opponent? Can you kill them only if they stand up and duel? You have become a knight.”
“No, the death penalty that was delayed in the end is anyway. There’s no way that kind of thing will go well. If you wipe out the Alchemy Steel Refinery, you’ll end up catching innocent people in the end?”
“You were a prophet, not a knight? Have you seen the future?”
“Yeah… no! Nothing can be solved with such a simple method!”
It was a quarrel that would not end because it did not lead to a battle. In front of a problem with no justice or correct answer, the two argued a lot, but it was not easy to come to a conclusion.
‘Carofald’ panicked and pointed to the iron door at the end of the long hallway.
“That place is the deepest control room, but…”
Carofald tried to intervene between the two growling, but Shiati pulled his arm to stop him.
“Carofald. Get off at once.”
“I don’t think this is a space for me to intervene. what about this Should there have been a princess?”
“…even if you were there, it wouldn’t have made much of a difference. Because these people are not the ones who obey the princess’s orders.”
“This is difficult.”
‘Carofald’ made a puzzled face and laughed inwardly.
The Alchemy Steel Refinery is a facility that even the soldiers of the military state stick out their tongues at the cruelty. You can guess its horror from the fact that people who move around in chains are treated well.
In the next building they saw prisoners screaming in tiny cages. With their left arms outstretched, their biological terminals had funnels attached to them.
Molten alchemical steel falls onto the funnel. It drips and falls, but the sound is as dull as that of stones. Then, the molten iron spreads through the body, absorbs a lot of mana, and returns to the bio-terminal in a circle. The fruit of steel forms on his wrist.
Sinners must get it off quickly if they want to survive. Otherwise, your arms will break under the increasingly heavy weight.
The Alchemy River that fell on the rail is carried somewhere.
The above process is mechanically repeated until the working hours for the day are over.
‘there! help me! Please, I’ll do anything!’
‘Free Poo! I will never commit a sin again! I’ll live kindly!’
Cries for help raged, but the party, unable to come to a conclusion, ignored them and passed by. Then the appeal for help turns into a curse and pours out. Regressor and Historia reached the deepest control room leaving behind all that hell.
They are not weak enough to hurt their hearts over something like that. But there are enough reasons to worry.
“What more. They are the ones who paid for their sins once in this way. It’s okay if we just kill ourselves here.”
“The subject of terrorism against the military needs all sorts of reasons. It’s clear to see how much Huey went through to listen to your insistence.”
“Why is that child’s story suddenly appearing? It has nothing to do with it!”
do they know
All the sights shown to them were, in fact, exquisitely designed by Sieghrund, who plays ‘Carafald’.
Observe the reaction secretly. Reading emotions without looking at them is his specialty. After distinguishing between positive and negative reactions, if one reaction is weakened, a new route is drawn to compensate for it.
In the end, the two opinions completely diverge and confront each other.
‘Conflict confrontation and anguish. It’s a perfect story. After all, any luxurious stage and a theater with a great audience. It’s nothing compared to a stage set in this vast world.’
‘Carofald’ recalled his very old self for a moment.
The Empire’s vassal states were only in words, but in reality they were no different from colonies. food wealth culture people. The vassal state had to pay tribute to the empire and maintain its existence.
Among the tributes to be given to the empire, the most attention was paid to cultural assets. A culture with its own characteristics that sated the vanity of the highest ranks of the empire at no cost was the chief tribute of the feudal states.
In particular, the most talked-about thing these days is drama. In order to win the tribute competition, the emirate used to run a theater company directly in the country.
Of course, the most important thing in a theater company is learning.
You need that kind of ability to digest all kinds of roles. Outstanding memorization ability Observation ability to persistently dig into a target Physical ability enough to recreate a heroic story on stage Ability to apply knowledge acquired, etc.
Before he was called Yeong-gwe, he was an actor who would not be inferior anywhere.
‘Hana, in the vassals, where the Empire had to pay attention, they couldn’t really reflect the reality. I was a bouncer who only lived on stage.’
Officials from the Empire openly accept bribes. But no one can criticize him. Rather, the bribe is not a bribe, but a bribe, fearing to go against his will, and should be wrapped.
Sieghrund found that fact ‘funny’.
unfair or unfair. There is no resistance to swallowing anger in front of power.
It was just funny.
If you’re ashamed, don’t accept bribes. If you are hungry for riches, you can rejoice and take it.
However, the appearance of him pretending to be noble on the outside and receiving all sorts of entertainment behind the scenes was so ridiculous that Sieghrund mocked him to the fullest. He wore a petite beard and his ridiculous performance made him the laughing stock of everyone.
It was an expression of the humorous nature that any artist has, but the result was disastrous.
‘Ahahaha! I wouldn’t have known then! Thanks to that, I’m destined to wander the world.’
A long career as an actor was a big help. Even in front of a terrifying pursuer from the empire, he was able to overcome the crisis several times thanks to his calm acting.
decorate the face change one’s residence fix the clothes change your attitude It also ruins all ties.
By the time you forget who you really were.
Somehow, ‘she’ came.
‘I want to get rid of injustice in the newly born country, so lend me your strength! Ahahaha! sound that makes sense. I don’t particularly like integrity!’
However, Sieghrund accepted the offer. It was an inevitable choice for him, who was exhausted after a long chase.
The threat to the statue was also a threat, but above all it was to protect his ego. Since Sieghrund was a born actor, he took on dozens of personas and overwrote himself over and over again. Thanks to her amazing acting, she got out of the crisis, but she changed her identity so often that now it’s to the point where she can’t remember who she originally was.
However, ‘she’, who came to find ‘herself’, not one of dozens of personalities, but the general term of all of them, was an anchor that defined herself.
‘Oops! Forget it again. let’s focus Concentrate. don’t forget I am Lingge Sieghrund dressed as Carofald.’
‘Carafald’, who controlled his mind, drew the image again in his mind. Normal physique, normal skeleton. A man’s face like drawing paper, without any special features or special impression. Sieghrund’s body to return to when the performance of ‘Carafald’ is over.
An anchor of the ego created to protect oneself between numerous personalities and identities.
Sieghrund, who started acting again, happily looked at the actors in front of him. The quarrel he created is gradually escalating.
Originally, in this case, the mediation of a third party is necessary, but unfortunately there is no one to mediate them here.
At least, the relatively calm Tyr urged the two of them.
[Slowly decide the direction. Or I’ll bring Hugh myself. There’s no vacation, so the story can’t be organized.]
“Tch. okay. Anyway, are you thinking of destroying this facility itself? Let’s break it all down and think about it before deciding on the course of the laborers…”
As the regressor came to a simple and violent conclusion, she felt a human presence on the other side and frowned. The regressor, who changed his expression in an instant, glared at the sharp iron gate and asked ‘Carafald’.
“for a moment. Can you feel the presence inside? Hey, are there any guards inside?”
“…well, well. It may be because it is an emergency. I’m fine too.”
‘Guard troops? There is no way. Even if the armed forces of the military are hiding in this, it will not be of much help, and rather, it will only become a noise that interferes with the conflict between the characters. The scene where the ambush troops appear is a long time later.’
Everyone’s heart became urgent. There was no time to argue with each other now that a mysterious obstruction had appeared.
It was undesirable for Sieghrund.
“Let’s go in! I’ll go in first!”
The regressor held out his twin swords and jumped. The regressor, who ran to the opposite corridor in just two steps, kicked the steel door at the same speed as he was running. The kick that was kicked with a lot of qi gong mercilessly distorted even the 3rd level alchemy steel door.
“Who are you…! uh?”
The regressor stopped immediately swinging his sword.
It was a space full of complicated machinery and strange noises. The sound of iron colliding with iron is heard loudly. Unlike humans, machines do not need light to move. The existence standing in the middle of the control room in the deepest part of the room, where a dim light illuminates the inside.
none other than me
I, who had rushed outside saying that I couldn’t stand this horror, appeared from the deepest part.
“day off? What do you think… did you outrun us?”
[phew? You’ve arrived just fine.]
Soon after, Tyr Historia, Shiati, and ‘Carofald’ appeared one after another. Everyone was surprised by my appearance, but that’s about it. Since they are allies in the first place, there is no need to be wary of them.
However, only ‘Carafald’ felt an ominous flow and shuddered.
“You… why are you out there?”
‘Why is there a cast that has exited once? This is not in the script…!’
In a space where everyone’s eyes are on one body and dim lighting surrounds me.
I opened my mouth with a lot of strength and heavily.
“You came earlier than expected. I wanted to finish it before you arrived.”
