The World-Class Extra’s Walkthrough - Chapter 33
Episode 33
What We Need Now
When the sun sets and hungry dogs and humans begin to empty the streets in search of their own food.
We quietly left the bar ‘Cold Sun’ where we stayed for a few days.
The destination was, of course, that dungeon.
‘The tomb ruins are near the eastern gate of Auracus.’
First of all, my goal was to get there safely.
Tyrvaen was busy using detection magic to detect the movements of the guards.
“…Lowering.”
Carls was looking back with a shocked expression.
There was a face glimpsed through the window of a room on the second floor of a bar.
This is Thompson, a novice conman.
“Did you really say that to Thompson? “You want to sell us out?”
“huh.”
“So what? “You mean that guy just said he would do that?”
Carls is so embarrassed that he even stutters.
I stopped laughing.
“why? Do you feel betrayed?”
“Honestly, that’s right.”
“Since when was Mr. Thompson part of our gang? “Three or four days at most, Carls.”
“That’s true, but…”
I laughed again as I looked at Carl’s face, which suddenly became glum.
It’s only been a few days, but the two people who went on adventures and evaded security guards together seem to have developed a bond.
I nodded.
‘Yes, I’m old enough to do that.’
At this point, Carles was only twenty years old.
And although he tries hard to hide it, Tyrvaen is also nineteen.
I didn’t ask him specifically, but if Thompson was younger than him, he would have been young, not an adult.
So, we can easily become friends and trust each other easily.
But I was a little different.
‘I’m a bit past that age.’
After leaving the orphanage, I reached the age of 30 by being bullied and deceived by this person.
It was hard for anyone to believe that he was an adult with a lot of experience with the world and people.
So I didn’t trust Thompson 100%.
‘I wonder if I have any mind-reading skills.’
Of course, that doesn’t mean I don’t trust him completely.
Because he escaped from the black society purely by trusting me.
Because I grabbed the ‘opportunity to change my life in the back alley’ that I offered.
‘So I have to repay them clearly and clearly.’
So I planned this.
To give him a chance to change his life as promised and to bid farewell to him in an appropriate manner.
That was the purpose of the last operation I instructed Thompson.
“If we get far enough away, he’ll accuse us.”
“No, what I’m saying is, how could he do that…”
“Dan Thompson will accuse us with strange information about us.”
“…Strange information? “What do you mean by that?”
“I mean, we sent out counter information to the city security to prevent them from tracking us.”
“…!”
Carls’ face finally opened up.
Reverse information.
In other words, Thompson’s role was to spread ‘false information’.
He was going to accuse us and mix half-truths with half-lies.
“We will tell you honestly how we tricked Lucard and stayed in the cold sun, but we will not answer or talk nonsense about who exactly we are and where we are going.”
We are now heading towards the eastern gate of Auracus, but Thompson was going to tell us that we left towards the west.
Tyrvaen, who was listening, nodded.
“So, that’s your intention? “If truth and lies are mixed, it will not be easy to filter them out.”
“yes. “As a result, Thompson is credited to the guard, but we won’t get caught.”
And since Thompson is credited with recovering the fraudulent contract, Lucard will not just dismiss him.
“I see, you left him behind with that intention.”
“They say it was their dream to become a security guard since childhood. “It’s enough for two people to follow me around and suffer.”
“Lowering? “I have also dreamed of becoming the leader of the Imperial Knights since I was young, but it seems like the person who will become the emperor is not making efforts in that direction?”
“Disciple, I too have dreamed of becoming the owner of the Five-Colored Spire since I was young! “Would you mind doing this too?”
…It leaves me speechless.
At that time, we were exchanging such trivial stories.
Beep! Beep!
A whistle began to sound loudly from where we had passed.
The city guard was exchanging emergency signals.
I nodded.
“I guess Thompson is starting to move.”
“Can he lie well?”
…Honestly, it seemed like he was better at pickpocketing than lying.
“Still, I guess I learned something from what I saw and heard in the back alleys.”
Fortunately, Thompson guessed the story correctly, and the city guard we met on the street didn’t even pretend to see us.
They are probably planning to gather in the western region of Aurax, which is known to be our destination, and begin a search operation.
Thanks to this, we passed through the eastern district smoothly and reached near the castle gate.
“…ruler.”
I stopped and looked back at the two people.
“This is where we will part ways.”
Then the two people’s expressions began to distort.
“Are you abandoning us after Thompson? It’s not possible! no way!”
“They say that if you are dedicated, you will become devoted! You damn disciple! How dare you!”
“That’s not it!”
What I meant was that we should separate for a day.
Because that instance dungeon ‘Closed Passage of Tomb Ruins’ is for soloing only.
There was no need to go in with the two people, and it was not possible.
And above all, the two had separate things to do.
“You two go first and attend the ‘Red Wind Ritual’ in advance. And please look at the situation.”
“What is the situation? “What kind of situation are you telling me to look at there?”
I responded briefly to Carls, who tilted his head.
“Eve Rottweiler.”
Then Carls’ eyes slowly widened.
I could intuit it.
“I’m sure he’s here.”
So things were never going to be simple.
First of all, the Red Wind Ritual itself was not easy.
Children thrown out on a hunting ground must hunt the target they are given and then return.
These are somewhat dangerous targets for children around 18 to hunt.
So the children had to work together.
Form a party according to your power and interests and jointly hunt the prey of the party members.
In this process, children will embrace, compete with, and betray each other.
If you slip into consciousness, you have to prepare and try again.
Or, there may never be a chance.
In this harsh and cruel process, children identify and judge each other.
‘It will determine what perspective you will have when you become an adult.’
So, this was also a harsh initiation into the adult world.
However, the evil plan of the Church of Cysiris added its own purpose to this terrible event.
…a cruel plot to expand the power of the Kysiris priestesses by wiping out a generation of boys.
‘I came all this way on the condition of preventing that.’
Now it was time to put it into action.
But there was another being there who had a similar purpose as me.
‘Eve Wyler.’
The guy who tricked me so well in the Imperial Territory will be there.
It was difficult for me to predict how Eve would turn out here.
This guy isn’t just an NPC…
‘Because he’s a player disguised as an NPC, just like me.’
When two or more players tackle a single quest, they are inevitably faced with a choice.
‘Competition or cooperation.’
Which one will it be?
…What kind of faces will we meet?
“Anyway, you know what I mean, right?”
“I understand, sir.”
“Okay, leave it to me.”
The place where the Red Wind Ritual was held was a place called ‘Dark Cliff’ in the forest northeast of this city.
“Master, you know the way, right?”
“of course.”
While Kals ran errands for me, Tirvaen studied the map of Aurax in the guest room and studied the city’s topography.
So I knew well the quickest route to the dark cliff.
That was to go out of the west gate and take the forest road straight away.
“Then take care of yourself.”
“I’ll see you tomorrow, sir.”
Two people say a brief goodbye with worried eyes.
“Oh!”
I called them over.
It was because I forgot one really important thing.
“Master, are you going to go with that face?”
“…what? “What’s wrong with my face!”
“No, that’s not it. ‘N Alredro’ is 18 years old this year. That’s the status of a teacher, right? But now it doesn’t seem that way at all.”
“…!”
This is the problem.
Carls is ‘Karl’, 19 years old, and I am ‘Shan’, 17 years old.
And the little witch became 18-year-old ‘N’.
That’s what it says on our ID cards now.
‘But the face is still that of an old witch?’
Anyone with sharp eyes would not be able to believe that she was a beautiful 18-year-old.
“What are you going to do?”
“What if I told you that she was a girl with progeria?”
“Yes, don’t talk nonsense. “Do you have disguise magic?”
“Disguise magic? Of course there is, but that’s it…”
I smiled to myself as I looked at the confused witch.
‘It’s not just that I have it, but I’m still using it.’
Tirvaen Sui is now 19 years old, and following the tradition of her teachers, she hides her true appearance and pretends to be an old witch.
‘So, if you want to dress up as an 18-year-old, all you have to do is disarm the disguise spell, not perform it.’
However, she is hesitant because showing her bare face is taboo.
Knowing her true intentions, I was almost dying of laughter, but I held it in and scolded her.
“Then go ahead and disguise yourself. “Aren’t they going to check your ID when you go through the gate over there?”
“But that’s a bit me…”
He hesitates a lot.
Feeling a bit frustrated, I gave a slight glance towards Carls.
Then, Carls smiled beautifully at a subject he had no idea about.
“Please hurry, Sir Sui. “I, too, am very curious about your younger days.”
“…?”
“As someone who knows the mature and seasoned Sutra now, I cannot help but look forward to how beautiful and strong the Sutra will be back then.”
…The comment was missed.
‘Where did this bastard go to an academy where they put honey on their snouts?’
Is snout passing an ad lib?
And the effect was truly amazing.
“Is that so? Are you really excited? Lord Sillion?”
Tyrvaen’s eyes were shaking like crazy.
I didn’t need any further convincing.
Grinning.
It was enough for Carls to smile one more time.
“…If you say that, I can’t help it.”
Tyrvaen, whose neck was stained red even, instantly released the disguise magic.
And finally, the red-haired girl revealed her true self.
‘Tirvaen sui.’
She was a girl with such delicate features and youthful aura that one could believe she was 15, not 18.
Beautiful?
Well, it felt a bit hasty to discuss such a thing, but Tyrvaen looked like a girl.
‘Yeah, he was such a kid.’
It’s a bit different from the face I saw on the monitor.
As I was laughing, I looked to the side without thinking and then froze in shock.
“Uh…”
Carls, who had been smiling and making sweet noises just a moment ago, was now frozen with his mouth wide open.
no way.
“Is it strange too?”
The little witch smiled with an awkward expression on her face, as if it had been too long since she had dispelled the disguise spell.
“Oh no. “It’s so good, Sir Sui.”
Too good?
What’s so good about it?
“Hey, why is your face red? “Why are you suddenly stuttering?”
“When will I! Let’s go now! Please take care of yourself! You!”
Kalth quickly disappears, taking Tyrvaen with a confused face.
Left alone, I was wondering if there was a bamboo forest somewhere here.
…Bamboo spear.
I need a bamboo spear!
