The Blood Knight’s Villains - Chapter 125
My Villains Episode 125
34. Graduil Mountain⑴
A dark and desolate PC room.
“Did you bounce again?”
“uh.”
Jong-seo, who was sitting next to him, giggled as if he was dumbfounded.
“If you just use that combo, will it bounce unconditionally? It’s completely crazy. What kind of bugs are there?”
“I know. Just one more time, and if it bounces again, I’m just going to hit it.”
After opening a new server, I chose a man with a pale face and strange makeup.
“What, was he hardcore too?”
“uh.”
“A character for experimentation?”
“I don’t normally play normal mode.”
“But that’s right, you turned on hardcore even for experiments? You are really crazy.”
It’s not even a day or two, but Jong-seo sticks out his tongue. Then he clicked his tongue and said, “Eh, what a pity.”
“……what.”
“Dark world build development is what you do on vacation at most. If only I could keep seeing my girlfriend… no, no.”
The man on the screen held a large stone slab and started chanting strange incantations.
“This is also quite fun.”
“This isn’t fun, but isn’t writing strategies on the forum fun?”
“That’s it.”
After accessing the forum, Jong-seo entered the strategy tab.
“Hey, how do you see what you wrote?”
“Search ‘plasma’.”
“Plasma… I wrote a lot.”
Meanwhile, on the screen, a man holding a slate was continuing to cast an order. It will take quite some time. I pressed alt-tab and scrolled through not very interesting webtoons.
Jong-seo, who was scanning the screen, burst out laughing.
“Standard builds, PvP builds, tanking builds, whirlwind builds… Did you write all the blood knight builds?”
“of course.”
“Blood mage build? Why is this so low on stars?”
“Everyone hated it because it was a tricky build. It is inefficient.”
“Anyway, kimchi gamers. Don’t you know how to play games?”
In the middle of Jong-seo’s chatter, a ringing sound rang and the SNS messenger blinked.
Sergeant Jeonghyeok Moon. The mouse cursor hesitates…
“Double knife build This looks interesting. Is it similar to Ramen Berserker?”
“Better than that. When it comes to enemy builds, go Berserker.”
“What else is a swordsman? Did something like this ever happen?”
“It’s from the expansion pack.”
“I like how it looks… Why are all the build names like this?” Alt tab. The game screen covered SNS messages and webtoons. The order of the man with the slate reached its climax.
A vibration echoed from the side. After a short phone call, Jong-seo speaks.
“Almost all the kids are here. Let’s go.”
“wait for a sec. Just try this.”
As the man with the stone slate shouted, the spirits gathered in all directions were sucked into his body. And followed by ‘destruction’.
Suddenly, the world was torn to pieces.
I’ve met four sub characters so far.
Elemental Wizard Ellen Necromancer Luke Berserker Utequai Arcane Hunter Atalante. Two of these became allies, one became enemies, and one was still elusive.
When Ellen and Utequai became teammates, I could see their character sheets. Because of this, I was cautiously guessing that the character sheet might be proof of trust.
For this reason, the fourth character sheet that came up last night confused me
.
Name: Nameless
Level: 23
Class: Swordsman
Stats: Remaining Bonus – 0
Strength – 15 (20) Agility – 38 (92)
Health – 14 (18) Magic – 10 (10)
Skill:
Weak (襲) 5pt Silver (隱) 5pt
Poison 2pt Escape Ipt Cow = 3pt Per (違) lpt Yeon (燕) lpt True (所) 3pt Pleasant (快) lpt A new tab opened on the screen I saw in my dream, so of course I was at Atalante’s sheet
. I knew it. Aside from the question of whether trust was built up with her, it was because there was no other candidate in the first place.
But the new seat wasn’t Atalante’s. That of a swordsman who had no face at all was added.
I’ve never actually met him, but I could easily guess what kind of character he was just by looking at the sheet.
In the Dark World, the higher the stat, the more difficult it is to raise.
When the ability level was in the single digits, adding 1 bonus would increase one point, but when the ability value was in the 10s, it would increase by 1 point if the bonus was poured by 2, and when the ability was in the 20s, the bonus by 3 would increase by 1 point.
So it was more efficient to evenly raise multiple stats rather than focusing on one stat.
However, looking at the newly emerging swordsman’s sheet, agility was marked as ’38 (92)’. It means that he invested a whopping 92 bonuses and made 38 real points.
In addition to that, the fact that I mainly took skills in the ninjutsu series such as ‘weap’, ‘silver’, ‘poison’ and ‘mask’…
“Phoenix character.”
” hmm?”
When I looked up at the thought-breaking voice, Steedman held out a wooden bowl. It was a stew with pork and beans and tomatoes.
“It tastes good. Boonie is pretty good at cooking like this.”
“Okay, I’ll eat well.”
“Would you like to catch Ellen too?”
Sitting on a flat rock with her robe on, Ellen pondered for a moment before nodding her head.
“Well, give me a little.”
“Yeah, wait a minute.”
Steedman tumbled down his short legs and down the hill.
At the foot of the hill, Utequai and Amias’ gang had a small bonfire and were grilling things. Far from the center, Booney was vigorously frying something with an iron skillet.
Near the campfire, two wizards and a druid swordsman were sitting around. Siren Rao’s group.
On the other side, I saw Atalante lying on an arm pillow, and Vittorio, a warrior chewing on a loaf of bread.
A very peaceful landscape.
If it weren’t for the archer Cole and the warrior Argos, who were vigilantly holding their bows on a nearby rocky hill, it would have been a sight to believe they would have gone on a picnic with.
I slowly glanced around and turned to Ellen.
“But are you eating pretty well these days?”
“……I?”
“huh. Aren’t you the second?”
Ellen looked down at the sandwich she was eating and nodded.
“But why?”
“You didn’t even eat half of it.”
“It wasn’t quite like that.”
“That was about it.”
At my assertion, Ellen hesitated for a moment. Then he quietly put down the sandwich and felt his stomach and thighs and forearms.
“Have I become a bit heavy?”
“…what?”
“Does it feel a bit heavy when you hold me?”
Ellen’s face showed such trivial worries that Korean high school girls often show after eating late-night snacks.
“Fuhahaha!”
Ellen’s face crumpled when I burst into laughter because it was just ridiculous.
“What is funny?”
“uh? *haha* Well just. I thought you *big** cared about that too.”
“…Something like that?”
“uh. Getting fat and stuff like that.”
At my words, Ellen’s expression hardened a little.
“So you’re saying I’ve gained weight?”
“uh? no? That’s not it.”
“Tell me honestly.”
“Hey, I didn’t gain any weight. And you can gain some weight.”
As I was waving my hands, I suddenly remembered something that had happened about two weeks ago.
“Right, aren’t you eating more because you’re taller?”
“…key?”
“uh. You grew up not too long ago. Hey, wake up.”
“Hey, stop eating…
As I put down the wooden bowl and started working, Ellen pretended to win and blew mana into the wing ornament.
“Just put your feet on the ground for a minute.”
“I can do that by myself.”
The guy who stopped me from trying to hold my feet stood firmly on the ground.
“O uh” —
“….”Have you grown up?”
“for a moment.”
I placed the blade of my hand on the crown of his head and carefully measured his height.
…same as it is. No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem that big.
However, seeing Ellen’s eyes twinkling like stars, I couldn’t bear to tell the truth.
“Uh- have you grown up?”
“really?”
“hmm. yes it was big It’s very small, but it’s big.”
At my words, his face lit up, and he flew up a couple of inches.
“Actually, I’ve been thinking about it strangely because my appetite keeps changing.”
“Oh yeah?”
“That was a precursor to growing taller. Come to think of it, it seems like my knees were a bit tight every time I slept.”
He chattered and emptied the bowl of stew Steedman had brought.
“But what if the clothes I bought don’t fit? It’s all rural, so it’s hard to find decent clothes.”
…Um, that’s just plain sad.
Yesterday, the day I left Longville, I searched around Mount Graduil all day long. I focused on the road to the summit and the mountain range that enters the hill near the forest at the foot.
The reason I didn’t go straight to the mountaintop and deal with the Akanku Karamek was to rule out other hazards first. It was because I didn’t want to run into a group of greenskins or Anupad on the way down after being exhausted from dealing with strong enemies.
After an all-day search, the only monsters we caught were two orcs and three goblets.
“It seems that the seeds of the monsters have dried up around here.”
Atalanta, leaning a white spear on her shoulder, continued.
“The greenskins must have all fled and the Anupads must have gathered on the hillside.”
“We need a lot of food for the Anupad army. If you lie down in one place like you are now, you will not be able to get food. There must be a group hunting them.”
At Utequai’s insistence, Atalanta shook her head with a dark expression.
“Perhaps they prepared a separate supply.”
“You mean monsters?”
“It’s not called the military for nothing. And when they run out of food, they eat my own people.”
“O uh” —
followed by Utequai, and the rest of them fell silent. The temporarily formed party of 16 silently glanced at each other.
Amias gets the money, Atalanta scores points, and Syren wants Karamek’s jersey. Everyone wanted different things, so I couldn’t open my mouth.
hold on for a while Fifteen pairs of gazes converged on one place as if they had been woven together.
ha embarrassing
I opened my mouth and scratched my eyebrows.
“So Atalanta. What is your opinion?”
Atalanta, who had been tapping the window with her long fingers, responded with a small smile as if she had waited.
“We have to go to the hill road.”
“…You want to attack the Anupad army?”
“Similar but slightly different.”
Atalanta glanced around.
“The reason we’re not reaching the summit now is that we’re afraid we’ll be surrounded by Anupad’s army later when we retreat to Longville. Right?”
“so?”
“So we have to deal with the Anupad army first. Ambush near the hill and wait for the lord’s army. When the lord’s army strikes Anupad, they see an opportunity and join the battle.”
“’Look at the opportunity’.”
At my murmur, Atalanta shrugged.
“okay. Everyone knows what that means, right?”
If the lord’s army is likely to win, they must quickly join the battle and collect a lot of achievements, and if they think they will lose, they must be thrown out. It’s an obvious story.
“Are you okay though? If you run away, you won’t earn points.”
“At that time, wouldn’t the score be meaningless? If Anupad is strong enough to defeat the lord’s army, it’s better to give up the territory.” After all, what Atalanta wants is a stable settlement, not a precarious neighborhood that is threatened by monsters even at the time of trial.
Of course, Atalanta would believe that the lord would win. The goal must be to intervene properly in battle and maintain first place.
When I nodded, the wizard Siren hurried forward.
“Wait a minute Sir Phoenix.”
“Tell me, Miss Siren.”
Siren blinked at me with big eyes and looked back at the party.
“No matter the outcome of the battle, we must rise to the top. If the lord’s army is defeated, this area will only be in danger, but if Karamek’s magic is completed, Marva and the entire kingdom could be in danger.”
…to overdo the whole kingdom.
“And in fact, I have delayed enough even now. If time is wasted fighting Anupad’s army, it may be irretrievably late.”
“So what does Miss Siren want us to do?”
At my question, Siren looked back at her lover for a moment. Then he nodded briefly, then opened his mouth again.
“Take care of the most important things first, and the less important things later. We have to get to the top as soon as possible and stop the dimensional collision. Anupad is next.”
At the end of Siren’s story, a wind blew from the west. It was a welcome mountain breeze cooling the sun-scorched rock hills.
“hmm?”
Utequai stepped out while I suddenly looked back in the direction the wind had come from.
“I have a good idea. Both Atilia and the mage will be satisfied.”
As his eyes focused, he placed his chin on Dolme’s sack and continued.
“Send two mercenaries to spy on the hill. Signals when a spy battle begins. Then climb to the top of the mountain and deal with Akanku. They can’t pursue us because they are fighting Lord Anupad’s army. It is very simple.”
Looking at Atalante and Siren’s expressions, neither of them seemed very satisfied.
Utequai smiled at them.
“And before that we catch trolls.”
“Another troll. Can’t you just stop talking about that troll?”
“Be quiet, bitch. I know you covet troll blood.”
“Who coveted coveted it?”
Utequai neatly ignored Ellen’s grumbling.
“High troll score. If you catch it, you can stay number one.”
Atalanta frowned slightly and shook her head.
“Hatanka-san, in subjugation over there, you get three times the score. Seventeen Anupad is 153 points.”
“You just need to catch several.”
“……Several?”
“okay. I found a trace. Not one troll.”
As Atalanta fell silent, Utequai’s gaze turned to Siren.
“If you catch the troll, you can use the forest road.”
“If it’s a forest road.”
“You can get to the top of the mountain quickly. When the battle starts on the hill, we quickly climb to the top of the mountain and deal with Akanku.”
By the time Siren was persuaded, another wind blew.
I stared at the place where the wind blew, that is, towards the bush. It’s because I definitely felt something strange this time.
“But you must hunt trolls carefully.”
“why? There must be three wizards. With this amount of people, trolls…
“Looking at the traces, a female came to the male’s territory. take the baby.”
“So what?”
“I would have been paired up. Mated trolls are hungry and vicious.”
Then my nose caught a very faint smell. It was a terrible smell, like the smell of rotting excrement.
“You have to lure them one by one and hunt them. on a dark night.”
The sun that had risen in the middle of the sky was bright.
I picked up the hrunting with a wry smile. The party made a puzzled expression at the clear sword.
“I can’t wait until night.”
“I can’t wait? What does that mean?”
Utequai, who smelled it belatedly, lifted the dolme with a stiff face.
At the same time, a strange sound came from somewhere in the forest.
Wow!
A sharp roar like a scream. It was a troll.
