The World-Class Extra’s Walkthrough - Chapter 248
Episode 248:
That Card
I quietly explained to the Knights Templar about the Demon City hidden underground.
But even the seeds didn’t work.
“So, those who will be left out should be left out? Which hole are you talking about?”
“I wonder if you are looking at us too sparingly.”
“hey! People who are falling for me, come out! “I’ll take out all the corn too.”
As Osorma Tanik made a playful threat, boisterous laughter broke out among the knights.
But I frowned.
“hey! “You stupid bastards!”
“…!”
When I shouted, the knights who were laughing aimlessly fell silent.
I said, glaring at each of them.
“Are you out of your mind? “Do you all want to die?”
“….”
What I said with energy in my voice was my sincerity.
That was not a shout from their master, the 3rd Prince, but from a friend of similar age to them.
These knights are at an age where they would have started their own families if they were living on Earth.
I cannot allow them to die in vain. They were not born for that purpose.
However, I could not break their free will at will.
‘…Because there are things you want to protect even at the risk of death.’
Therefore, all playfulness had to be removed.
“Half of us die.”
I made eye contact with the drivers and emphasized once again.
No, even the assumption that half of them will die may be hopeful.
‘Maybe everyone will die.’
I knew the demon city well through my experience in the original game, but I had no experience dealing with two demon lords at the same time.
So I couldn’t be sure of anything.
I just emphasized it again and again to the knights.
‘Please decide your fate carefully.’
But…
“Sir, we are more sane than ever.”
Rodrigo Iesta, who was sharpening his blade with a leather strap, answered silently.
“that’s right. “Of course I don’t want to die, but if I have to die, I’m sane enough to make the decision to do so.”
Salet Firdin grinned, his face covered in dirt.
“What was it? A while ago, you told me a word that refers to this special wisdom. Ah, wise man time! We are all in ‘Sage Time’ right now! Lowering!”
…Osorma, that’s not a word to use in situations like this, is it?
“Lowering.”
Finally, the old knight opened his mouth.
Director Kermal Karmodo can now be called a sword master in name and reality.
“These are the lowly knights forever. Whether alive or dead. Therefore, a path that does not follow degradation is meaningless.”
Then the Blue Flame Knights grinned as one.
“…Crazy guys.”
I muttered, holding back the tears inside.
“Why are we crazy people?”
“They’re crazy because they don’t even know they took the wrong path.”
“Isn’t that road crazy?”
“Come on, let’s all go crazy together. “You crazy lunatics.”
Then, led by the Sword Master, the knights raised their swords in unison and shouted.
“Have you heard everything? “My Majesty wants you all to go crazy!”
“Let’s go!” “You idiots!”
“Yaaaaaa!”
“….”
It was absurd, but it felt good.
At the same time, I felt like a heavy responsibility was pressing on my shoulders.
I have to bring them out alive.
‘I will not let anyone die.’
There is no life that is okay to die, and there is no pain that is okay to experience.
I entered the cave with that promise.
* * *
[Entering the Demon World’s colonial city ‘Belalux’.]
I knew very well how complex the inside of the Demon World city was.
It is a type of ant tunnel where spaces are connected by digging and drilling under the ground.
However, its scale was not at a level that could simply be called an ‘ant cave’.
‘It’s an anthill with 10 round-trip lanes.’
It was a maze so large that ants could probably navigate it without any problems, even if it was the size of a mid-sized car.
“…Wow, there was a city like this underground on the continent.”
“Huh…”
The knights who saw this structure for the first time looked embarrassed.
But I moved right away.
“The team is divided into two. “First of all, General Manager Carmodo and I will take charge of the front end of Team A and move forward.”
The plan was to divide the party’s strength appropriately so that they could move forward while distributing aggro back and forth.
“And the B team that will take charge of the rearguard…”
That was right then.
“No, leave Team B to the leader. “I’ll be on the A team with you.”
Gilad Gordin, who had been quiet the whole time, intervened.
I frowned.
“you?”
“I promised something, right?”
…Yes, you said you would save my life once.
But I didn’t really believe it.
“….”
I looked back at Jerez Magria in silence.
Then the leader of the revolutionary army smiled faintly.
“Just as your crazy knights are free to follow you, my idiot soldier is also free to act. “I can’t force it.”
…I don’t think so.
They may force it, but I think they just want to watch it because it’s fun to watch.
“Hehehe…”
Jerez Magria smiled and opened his mouth at my suspicious gaze.
“You might think me suspicious. “I am on your side and also on that demon’s side.”
“Yes, I guess so.”
Heres was a woman who could join hands not only with the demon god but also with the demon god’s grandfather if she could return this world to its original state.
So, it was a very accurate expression to say that while he was on my side, he was also on Harmun’s side.
“It would be much more dangerous at the front, right?”
“Still, I’m a few years younger than the leader, right? Although the Sword Master is a senior.”
“…Please take good care of me.”
After discussing, the two sword masters took their seats, and the knights were reorganized accordingly.
The ratio of troops divided between the front and rear was about 6:4.
As we began entering Belarux, Jerez Magria began a new story.
“Now I will tell you about what I know about the ‘inheritance of Godhead’.”
“…!”
“To be exact, it was the time when the fools of heaven tried to take away the status of great people. “This is a story about the ‘method’ they used.”
The story was simple but shocking.
“It was all ruined by Gcermiu, but they drank the blood of the great assassin. And we succeeded in reprocessing it into some kind of energy form.”
Vampirism and reprocessing.
“Doesn’t it feel familiar somehow? Yes, that was the Demon World’s way. Just like the mother blood plants on earth do.”
“….”
“I don’t know how, but Harmun remembered that method and went one step further.”
“Going further?”
“‘Cultivating’ the blood of God. ‘Proliferating’ the lineage of the great. “To enable more people to be born with noble blood.”
“…!”
My eyes widened as I realized what was coming.
“You really created a farm? Are you planning to multiply the divine blood and absorb it all as your own?”
So the homunculi…?
Jerez nodded.
“That’s clever. That guess is correct. As you said, Harmun created a ‘farm.’”
…oh my god.
“Now, in order to endlessly drink the divine blood of that Great Assassin, who has left our world forever… I built this city by applying the technology left behind by his confidant and predecessor. “Isn’t it really ironic?”
“….”
I was lost in thought.
Gcermiu touched the dimension and destiny to sustain the great man.
However, Harmun was trying to use it in reverse and take over the great man’s godhood for himself.
If it was irony, it was an ironic irony, and if it was a tragedy, it was a troubling tragedy.
While we were talking, the first battle began.
Crrrrr!
On the other side of the passage leading deep into the city, Diabolic Hounds bared their teeth.
Some of the loyal dogs rushed at us, while others ran away to alert their owners to the presence of an intruder.
but.
“Where!”
Gilad Gordin struck down the dogs with a perfectly shaped sword spirit.
Neat finish.
I asked Jerez back.
“Then is it the same for me? Are you saying that Eve and I, the successors to the Great God, must also consume that divine blood?”
Then the leader of the revolutionary army shrugged his shoulders.
“I do not know. First of all, I am not the successor. “Because no one has ever glimpsed such a possibility.”
So, this was meant to be understood as a way for those who were not successors to usurp the throne.
“And…”
Jerez Magria was looking across the anthill with meaningful eyes.
“As far as I know, Myrkrtan and Elmodros have already secured a significant amount of new blood. Of course, it belongs entirely to the demon god.”
Mirkrtan, the Demon Lord of Illusion.
Elmodros, the Demon King of Truth.
I nodded, remembering their faces.
“So you’re saying we have to catch them? “We must prevent the demon spirit from reaching the level of the great divine being.”
Jerez Magria grinned.
“Honestly, I’m hoping you win.”
“Hmph, isn’t that just an empty statement? Who says all that needs to be done is to determine a winner?”
“I’m sorry. Wouldn’t it be me who would think about the world returning to its original state? Would you be happy about the world becoming a world of demons?”
“…unexpected. “I thought you didn’t care at all.”
“I am trying to avoid the worst. And just in case…”
At that moment, Jerez’s eyes flashed dangerously as he looked at me.
“…Gilroshan if you are defeated.”
My defeat?
“I will not hesitate to take away the divine blood you have.”
“…!”
“If possible, I will spare your life. Because Captain Gordin will be sad.”
Yes, this woman is really crazy.
“….”
I quietly glared at the mixed-race elf who had given a terrible warning.
But she smiled quietly and backed away from me.
“So don’t be defeated. Do you understand?”
* * *
[Your follower ‘Kermal Carmodo’ has defeated ‘Diabolic Mad Troll’!] [
Your follower ‘Gilad Gordin’ has defeated ‘Diabolic Giant Arachne’!] [
.. .]
The process of us entering the Demon City was smooth.
Captain Carmodo has newly ascended to the rank of Sword Master.
And it was all thanks to Captain Gordin, who was fighting the fight more seriously than ever.
Monsters eroded by demonic energy were constantly appearing, but the two were blocking them without a break.
However, that performance could not last forever.
The ones who cracked our perfect defense were the ‘Durahan’, also known as the Lion Knights.
“Captain! “It’s dangerous!”
“Aren’t the Dullahans running away!”
“It can’t be helped!”
After a fierce battle, it was our side that won.
But some of the Dullahan retreated into the darkness.
Now the demons will know that an intruder has come in.
Coo coo coo coo….
The faint vibration felt under my feet was the evidence.
Director Carmodo approached me and bowed his head.
“I’m sorry, sir. “I missed it.”
I burst out laughing at those words.
“Because the Sword Master is not a god.”
In fact, it is a world where even God is not God.
‘If I do this, I can endure it for a long time.’
Until now, it was just a chance encounter with monsters from the demon world.
Now that the entire city has been put on alert, real demons will come after them.
You have to run at speed.
At the same time, you must keep changing your route, breaking through the siege of demons and entering the depths.
‘The target is the Demon King’s Palace in the center.’
It won’t be easy.
This city exists to protect the Demon King’s palace.
And the evidence of that hardship soon appeared before me.
“Prince, that is…!”
Captain Gordin’s astonishment.
I nodded.
“…Yes, it’s a familiar face.”
It appeared from the darkness like a ghost.
[Encountered past player ‘Sarkas’.]
[Be careful. Currently, his character is not in ‘normal state’.]
“Who is the successor?”
…Sarkas’ clone ‘Epsilon’.
The question he asked was the same as when Hael was taken away.
So I answered.
The answer I couldn’t give back then was blocked by Hael.
“It’s me, you ten-year-old.”
“…?”
Sheesh, that’s not fun.
