The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 96

Episode 96. An eye for an eye (1)

tall.

A bony hedgehog.

A skinny face.

The interrogation led by Marcelo was unexpectedly powerful.

To the point where I don’t regret letting it go.

Most of all, it was related to the Mage Tower.

I felt no mercy.

“I am asking about Karimzeba’s whereabouts.”

“Didn’t you say you didn’t know? Are you asking because you think that arrogant old woman will tell me where she is hiding?”

“I will make sure that you are serious.”

“Ughhhh!!”

Jigsaw Jigsaw—!

A magic that thrills even the viewer.

Marcelo did not change his expression, and Jang Hyun-do.

No, the devil was tortured.

Realize again.

That the wizards of the Mage Tower are beings that should not be touched carelessly.

‘It makes sense that there is no blood or tears in a way.’

Of course this interrogation process.

I’m not going to say anything as I’m watching calmly.

It’s something I can’t help.

Do I feel sympathy for the demon of Grandfel?

Because it was impossible.

“What can you say…!!”

It is useless to look at me with those eyes.

Summarize the information obtained at the end of the interrogation.

‘Acampatam, the devil of the true name.’

That acampatam was the demon possessed by Jang Hyeon-do.

It sounds grandiose because it’s called the demon of true name, but there won’t be much difference. Among demons, those who are classified as named monsters were demons of true names.

‘It is stronger than demons of the same level.’

Named Monster.

[The Predator’s Swamp] Tired of watching in the rift.

Even ordinary monsters match the pattern when named.

If the devil is more than that, it’s natural that it’s more.

“Haven’t you heard of it? In the first place, I had no intention of cooperating with the old Karimzeba! Even though I was thinking of hitting the back. I also don’t want a high-ranking demon king to be resurrected!”

The same goes for acamphatame.

‘Especially that snout is fucking right.’

What the Magic Tower wants is not a small pup like himself.

Devil worshiper Karim Zevada.

After realizing that fact from Marcelo’s question.

He was skillfully arguing the point.

“I swear. I have told you everything I know.”

Karimzeba must have also fallen for this narration.

Because that wasn’t enough, I almost got hit in the back of the head.

Thanks to you, I was able to figure out all of Karimzeba’s plans. “

Because

of the simultaneous creation of cracks…”

What Karimzeba is preparing is the summoning ceremony of a high-ranking demon king.

Just like Frost Decarabia did.

The sacrifice will be needed even for the resurrection of the higher demon king.

The devil worshipers, including Karimzeba, open the rift.

The plan was to make up for the sacrifice through the rift.

“Senior Bangrit must have almost become a victim.”

Dare to be the senior wizard of the Mage Tower…

Marcelo’s eyes once again tinged with life.

Marcelo calmly grasped the situation.

“Now, except for Karimzeba, two devil worshipers are imprisoned. He won’t be able to control as many rifts as he planned.”

I agree with you on that.

But even if it’s a crack less than planned.

I was able to guess the appropriate level of those cracks.

[Crack in the broken dimension]

[Recommended level: Lv. 900]

Of course, it was a trap for senior mage Bangrit.

It could be that the appropriate level was unusually high.

However, there was a variable that was bigger than the appropriate level called Karim Zebara.

‘Let’s say that Karimzeba is waiting in the rift.’

The moment the players enter?

It would just be a sacrificial line for a higher level demon king.

The problem was that there was a good chance that Karimzeba would act that way.

The proof is that he confided all his plans to Acampatam.

Because Karimzeba was cornered.

“I just couldn’t win against the threats…! The only thing I had to do was to hand over information about Mr. Lee Ho-yeol. Then you’ll know how the magic tower rolls. But damn it. Why is the succubus…?”

As Acampatam said.

If I hadn’t been contacted by Baek Yi-seol, I would have gone a long way. However, I was also the one who turned Baek Yi Seol into a human through the [Exorcism Ritual].

In that sense.

‘Well done Lee Ho-yeol.’

I have no choice but to praise the past me once again.

Now, as thick as it gets, the iron skin has become thicker.

This kind of thing can no longer be included in the axis of self-praise.

As if to prove that, I was calmly soaked in emotion.

‘It would have been terrible if it was like before. really.’

Rifts that boast an ignorant appropriate level appear all over the world at the same time, and there is a possibility that a monster named Karim Zeba is lurking in such cracks.

…Wow. Are you terribly dark?

That’s not enough, so my level is only level 324.

Where should I start by myself?

It must be on a scale that you can’t even imagine.

But I was no longer alone.

Yes, at least because I had the authority.

“As of this time, senior mages will be allowed access to the rift. Marcelo.”

That’s right, all rights to the wizard’s tower…!

Karimzeba is a treacherous criminal of the Mage Tower.

It’s because it’s to secure the high-ranking criminal.

It is not a permission to go out against the procedures and pride.

Yes, I am more confident than ever.

It means that he can wield the power of the Magic Tower.

‘The mage tower quest is basic.’

In the process of securing Karimzeba, the rift will also be cleared.

‘The experience gained through him must be a level that can’t be ignored.’

Of course, my selfishness was never revealed.

Marcelo replied.

“I will hasten to prepare. Karimzeba will find out soon.”

Startled—

I looked at Jang Hyeon-do, who flinched.

you know?

what?

Did you tell the truth?

Hyundo Jang. No, Acampatam had such a questioning expression.

I looked at such acamppatam coldly.

‘What can I do if I just shake my mouth?’

I don’t really notice.

.

.

.

Paduk—

Acampatam kept his head down and gnashed his teeth.

‘…Damn it.’

Thanks to the sale of Karimzeba.

A situation where the vigilance against oneself is reduced.

Acampatham was relieved at first.

‘At least I can save my life.’

I was relieved, but I couldn’t help but feel my teeth tremble.

‘Crazy mage tower wizards.’

Karimzeba and this bony fellow.

all of them are ignorant

To wield such magical powers and not even stir up emotions.

They were unaware of the power they were radiating.

In that sense, I didn’t understand.

‘What is it?’

Lee Ho-yeol.

I didn’t feel the magical power of Karim Zeba or bones in that guy.

Acampatam is familiar with the tribe of sorcerers.

If you showed off your magical power, you showed it off.

It means that a wizard never hides.

By the way…

is he hiding his magical power?

Or is it that you don’t have enough magic power?

Either way, neither made sense.

‘That’s right, from a while ago.’

Isn’t this bone saying honorifics to Lee Ho-yeol?

That’s not enough, so the attitude is very polite.

I didn’t even feel any negative emotions.

It was an act that came from the heart.

‘it’s okay. It has nothing to do with me.’

The more I thought about it, the more complicated it was.

Acampatam stopped thinking.

Instead, he turned his head to his side.

‘Anyway, there’s nothing I can’t say in front of Mr. Acampatam.’

Ho-yeol Lee and Marcelo the Bone.

Thanks to the conversation between the two, I roughly grasped the situation.

‘I’m trapped in the space called Mage Tower Infinity.’

Karimzeba.

The fellow devil worshipers he was looking for.

That was unexpected even for acampata.

If it’s Karimzeba’s colleague, it must be.

He must have had magical powers comparable to him.

‘Did those monsters get subdued?’

How the hell did the magic tower come into being?

Do you think you were dragged into that mage tower?

I got goosebumps again… But

anyway, I got valuable information.

‘It’s okay to go back to this.’

On the yard that revealed all of Karimzeba’s plans.

I had no desire to meet him at all.

That’s not to say he’s not one to sit still.

When Karimzeba came to visit.

Wouldn’t you have to say something to save your life?

‘Of course, I’ll have to keep things a secret today.’

To trick Karimzeba?

I was confident.

No matter how great he is.

He is just a human being who has already been tricked once.

The second would be rather easier.

‘In order to do that, I have to shut up right now.’

Acampatam held its breath.

Yes, all you have to do is return here alive.

Then a voice was heard.

“I will hasten to prepare. Karimzeba will find out soon.”

“?”

Does the guy know?

What will you find out?

Am I going to shut up about this?

“!”

Acampatham looked up in surprise, then met their eyes.

Hoyeol and.

And I remembered.

It was a voice that seemed to pass by.

-“I do not mix words with prey.”

It was.

It was the gaze of a natural enemy looking at its prey.

Acampatam’s pupils turned black.

“You are you?” The tongue

that

was fine even in front of the Fire Dragon Karimzeba didn’t listen.

Even Karimzeva could not utter the sly words he had tricked.

Even my head stopped thinking.

Yes, this is an irresistible tremble.

It was horror.

Ho-yeol said to Acampatam.

“It seems to me.”

“…?”

“That stupid misunderstanding.”

mistaken.

I could immediately understand what it meant.

‘It was an illusion to think that I could return alive…?’

But couldn’t say anything.

They do not ‘mix’ the game with the horse.

It seemed like it was a one-sided declaration rather than a conversation.

There was no hesitation in Ho-yeol’s actions.

Acampatam was appalled.

‘This ends like this? Am I Acampatam?’ Of

course,

I couldn’t even utter that astonishment.

*

“It wouldn’t do any good for him to know what was going on inside.”

Marcelo erased Jang Hyun-do’s memory.

I don’t know how far I’ve erased those memories.

I wish I could erase even the old memories.

At least until it gets crooked.

‘Because Jang Hyeon-do is famous in a different way.’

drug, drunk driving.

Even before he was possessed by Acampatam, Jang Hyeon-do was a person who went up and down in the newspapers with all sorts of gossip.

That idiot can’t give it to others and try to install it again.

‘I wonder if Karimzeba will just watch that scene.’

Because Acampatam’s memory has been erased.

There will be no way they can communicate with each other.

It means that Jang Hyeon-do could be a target for venting his anger.

Of course, is that Jang Hyeon-do’s reformation?

It depends on how long his memory remains.

‘by the way.’

[Natural relationship].

And I felt it while activating [Exorcism].

‘It’s a bit difficult to say this with my own mouth.’

Apparently, I had grown quite a bit while clearing [The Predator’s Swamp].

Of course, demons didn’t exist in [The Predator’s Swamp].

The effect of [Relationship with the Natural Enemy], which has been activated for the first time in a while, may be felt dramatically.

Even thinking about that, I never thought I would be able to hunt so easily.

I checked the status window.

Demon of True Name Acampatam.

After defeating him, the level rose by 9 levels.

[Name: Grandfell Cloudy Arpheus Romeo]

[Title: Last Adventurer]

[Class: Demon Hunter]

[Level: 333]

[Ability]

Strength: 60 / Agility: 65 / Magical Power: 271 / Luck: 6 / Aesthetic : 下

[Possessed Points: 9]

When estimated from the amount of experience gained.

Acampatam should be at least level 560.

To kill such a guy.

It didn’t even require a lot of magic.

──────

Silver Mastery (81%)

──────

Just to raise skill proficiency.

It was all I had to do was attack with silver, which had roughly changed its form.

But an unexpected fatal blow struck.

[There is a ‘critical blow’ to the demon of true name Acampatam.]

Was it just luck?

Or is this also thanks to investing points in luck?

I could have thought about it and passed it on.

But I knew

‘[Natural Relations]. Doesn’t that just increase the activation radius?’

the higher the level.

Just like the activation radius of [Natural Enemy Relations], which is getting wider and wider.

It must be that the [natural enemy relationship] between me and the devil has become even stronger.

‘Is it possible to gain an even greater advantage in the battle against the devil?’

I said shamelessly.

“But I am not satisfied.”

It’s not that I’m too greedy, it’s still not enough.

There was no going back too long.

Even if only in [The Predator’s Swamp].

What a pitiful struggle I had.

It’s because I’m not good at swordsmanship.

Isn’t it riding on a lotus leaf because of lack of magic power?

Wouldn’t it tell the pure spirits the bitter taste of a class society…

‘That’s why I can’t be conceited.’

I don’t know about Grandfel, who is always full of confidence.

That means I have to remain rational until the end.

It is important not to forget to understand the subject.

In that sense, I was thoroughly prepared.

Susss—

the letters floating on the parchment.

──────

The enchantment of the magic tool you requested has been successfully completed.

Click─

The teacup being set down.

[Intelligence increases by 1 point due to the effect of the elixir herb ‘Starflower Root’.]

Fully prepared to dispose of Karimzeba.

That would be the same for the senior mages of the Mage Tower.

So, I promise you once again.

I’ll figure out the subject.

I will make good use of the strong reinforcements called the Magic Tower.

Because I had no desire to get caught up in a whale fight and perish.

.

.

.

Yes, that’s what I promised.

I didn’t want this kind of excessive treatment again.

‘…More than reassuring, it’s burdensome.’

But, as always, I can’t express myself.

I looked at the middle-aged man sitting across from me.

He said to me with a benevolent smile.

“It’s the first time we’ve had a conversation like this. Let me introduce myself.”

Small in stature for a man.

However, the transcendental magic that swayed through his body revealed who he was.

remind me again

But there is no bending.

‘Fucking pride.’

This is why I hit the company, and I!

Even the resentment that echoes inside is colorless.

I cheekily opened my mouth.

“No, skip the introduction.”

“oh?”

“Elder Mage Senios. Tell me about the business that came to me.”

Noblesse Oblige.

Until the Mage Tower reached its current state.

The two elder mages who have just been on the sidelines.

Because there was no way that Grandfell’s pride would be taken lightly.

Let alone respectful words, you can’t come out with nice words.

I just felt like I wanted to close my eyes.

‘If you ask me, I have nothing to say to my boss… even if I get fired. really.’

Does the Mage Tower have a severance pay system?

If so, what would you like to take care of?

What will happen to the borrowed magic tools?

However, I heard a different answer than I was prepared for.

“It’s simple because it’s a business. It’s to get permission.”

…Wait, permission?

What kind of permission does the elder wizard have to receive from me?

I thought and thought about it.

The full power of the tower given to me.

Senios smiled and continued.

“Elder mage Senios is formally requesting permission to exit the tower.”

It seems more sincere.

according to the procedure.

added to that purpose.

“The purpose is to punish Karimzeba, the high treason of the Mage Tower, with my own hands.”

…No, you’ve gone way past the qualifications for volunteering?

Although I was surprised to the point that a gasp came out with the voice.

The way I can’t express myself.

Click—

I calmly put down the teacup and said.

“I must have a more specific reason.”
