“They’re really coming in droves.”
Hwarururuk!
Even though they were threatening us by creating moderate flas, the monsters’ enthusiasm toward us didn’t seem to die down.
Even now, since they were only using low-level magic to conserve their magic power, so of the higher-level monsters were even coming through the flas.
‘The monsters’ ranks are getting higher and higher.’
30 minutes ago, there were only one or two A-level monsters, but higher-level monsters were coming in faster and faster.
I guess it can’t be helped because the sll of blood will be strong.
[Kkwaaaaak!]
The one who was bitten by a griffin scread in the air.
Pitter-patter.
Blood fell from the sky. It must have been a satisfying al for the griffin.
‘Ah, that one is dead.’
Although I had activated the vitality for a while by planting loneliness, it doesn’t have any side effects, nor does it make you invincible.
If you get torn to pieces without even having ti to regenerate, you’re bound to die.
[Ah, ahh... ... It won’t revive!]
[Oh, it’s dead... ... It’s really dead!]
[Huhhhhhh!]
And even the managers who had stubbornly survived until now were spitting out sounds that were hard to understand at the sight.
I don’t know if it was because they were afraid that their colleague had really died, or because they were happy that they had learned how to die.
“Tch, you heartless bastards.”
Why are you suffering so much {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} when you’ve killed far fewer people than you’ve ever killed?
‘Anyway, it seems like you’re reaching your limit.’
I looked up at the sky, watching Leo running wild.
It had been almost half a day since I sent these administrators into battle.
In fact, it was surprising that only about fifteen people were able to attract the attention of this many monsters, even though they were fed loneliness.
It would be difficult to hold out much longer.
“So, they should be biting from that side soon...... Is it because this country has a large land mass, why is it like this...... Hmm?”
I was about to cast a search spell.
Kukukung!
I could see the sky reaching the horizon rapidly becoming cloudy.
The sky, which was already dark because the sun had set, was now covered in a dark color.
It was a dark cloud.
And even though it was quite far away, sothing powerful enough to touch the magic I had controlled was sucking up the magic power.
‘Could it be Han Jae-young?’
If so, this ans that Han Jae-young found Master Hyeonam after searching.
The size of the magic being cast was quite large, even to .
Kugung!
And I saw white electric elents gathering in the sky.
I narrowed my eyes.
‘That’s... ... I think it’s mixed with the power of purification?’
If Han Jae-young casts such magic, it seems like Master Hyeon-am is escorting the jiangshi as his escort, just as we guessed.
I already finished an experint to see if the power of purification worked by capturing one jiangshi in the formation.
An attack magic mixed with the power of purification would definitely work no matter how many jiangshi there were.
‘This, maybe this quest will end like this.’
I looked out over the horizon for a mont with such anticipation.
And.
Kwakwang!
After the lightning struck, the thunder was slightly slower to transmit its sound.
I waited for a mont.
If this solved the problem, Han Jae-young will send a ssage.
-Warning!
But unfortunately... ... the ssage that ca up a little later wasn’t Han Jae-young’s.
Instead, what ca up was the system’s red letters.
- Party mber, ‘Han Jae-young’ is in danger.
- A party mber’s rescue request has arrived.
I frowned.
‘What the heck... ... ?’
Did the magic just fail?
However, even if the magic failed once, it was surprising that a danger ssage like this would appear.
Even Yoo Han-ul, who had been out of contact for three days, hadn’t gotten a ssage like this.
Furthermore, Han Jae-young wasn’t soone who would be easily taken advantage of.
The level of the magic I had just used was so high that even I was surprised.
Did he notice my doubts?
A small monitor-shaped image appeared in my field of vision.
- Temporarily sharing the field of vision with the party mber’s consent.
“Wait, is this even possible? It feels like an invasion of privacy, and it makes feel dirty......um.”
I swallowed my irritation.
Because I rembered the scene Han Jae-young was seeing on the screen.
And that scene... ...was rather provocative.
Red blood and flesh were strewn across the ruined land.
It was as if a massacre had occurred.
-Bam!
Han Jae-young fell to the ground, and his vision shook as he lowered his gaze.
Then he heard the sound of soone walking, and that person grabbed Han Jae-young’s head and lifted him up.
That person’s figure appeared in Han Jae-young’s fading vision.
“......”
I looked at him silently through Han Jae-young’s vision.
-Hello, my brother.
He looked completely different from Theo Yovanovic, who had a Western body.
‘What an unlucky face.’
Is that a fragnt of Orbis that bears the na of Mr. Hyunam?
I hate to admit it, but objectively speaking, it strangely resembles the appearance of ‘Jung Da-on’.
That’s why I was even more annoyed.
“Who is your younger sibling? My only family is Jeong Da-jeong.”
Jung Da-jeong’s ears, who is well-off in Korea, are ticklish.
But no matter what I say, Mr. Hyunam, who is holding Han Jae-young’s head, will not hear it.
The one-sided words continued.
- I caught your bishop. I think I sent you to purify my soul core, but it’s too bad. Your bishop is a penny that can’t catch my pawn.
I squinted my eyes.
The tragedy that I see right before my eyes.
Purification of the soul core.
And, ‘a penny that can’t catch my pawn.’
I wondered how they caught Han Jae-young, but after seeing the scene earlier and hearing what Mr. Hyun-am said, I could guess what happened.
“......He did sothing crazy. Did he order Han Jae-young to kill soone?”
If you synthesize the information you can get from this video, that’s the only conclusion you can co up with.
For example, Han Jae-young thought the other person was a skeleton and used the magic just now, but it turned out to be a person, not a skeleton.
The biggest weakness of a fairy is that they can’t take the initiative to kill, so if you dig into that, it was a very possible scenario.
However... ... The problem here is that Mr. Hyun-am knew Han Jae-young’s characteristics in advance, so he prepared this trap.
‘Is there a rat around Han Jae-young that I don’t know about?’
I couldn’t believe it.
How does Mr. Hyun-am know that Han Jae-young is a fairy?
There must be no one in Korea who can get information about him anymore.
-So, I want to make a suggestion.
“Ah, I don’t want to hear it.......”
-Go back, Lucy.
It was very creepy that Mr. Hyunam spoke in such a gentle voice.
It was the sa when I saw Theo Yovanovitch, but even more so because the shell was completely different from the Orbis I rembered, it felt like ‘Orbis’ itself.
-If you let go, I’ll send your fairy back safely.
“Hey, swarm intelligence.”
I ignored Mr. Hyunam’s words and spoke to the system.
“Do I have to keep listening to that? I can’t accept this negotiation because of the quest anyway.......”
- Even if you leave here, you won’t lose anything. You’ve already achieved the achievent of protecting the city from monsters, so failing the quest once or twice won’t be a big blow.
“......”
I was silent after hearing Mr. Hyunam’s suggestion, and then opened my mouth.
“Ha, shit......this stupid swarm intelligence.”
I felt like tearing out my hair.
Of course not my hair, but the system’s hair!
“Where on earth did you get all this information from?!”
- The system panicked.
- The system inford the user, ‘Jung Da-on’, that the content of the quest was not shared.
“Shut up!”
If there really was a brain, I would have completely crushed it!
Of course, I had a rough idea that my information was leaking to the other party through so route because of Nam Sung-hee... ...
It felt really dirty to hear that he knew about my quest so blatantly.
He even knew much more than I thought.
- The ‘Good deeds bring blessings¿’ quest was successful.
- The majority of society mbers judged your actions as ‘righteous’.
- So of the ability restrictions of the user, ‘Jung Da-on’ were lifted.
In fact, thanks to these few hours of struggle, I succeeded in the quest and have sowhat removed the ability restriction.
- The ‘SAVE THE WORLD’ quest is in progress.
And strictly speaking, in the case of this quest... ... it is related to the ‘Good deeds are rewarded’ quest, but there is no risk of strengthening the ability restriction if it fails.
If you are reading this translation anywhere other than Novelight or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.
So even if you back out here, there is no fatal blow.
But the question is, why does the other side know that?
- At this point, don’t you have enough reason to back out? You did your best. And I have never hard you. Oh, that’s the ‘’ on this side.
Hyunam Sensei pointed to his body and smiled.
Does that an he knows that he is just a clone?
- Of course, I won’t say let’s have a permanent truce. But wouldn’t it be okay to at least have a short truce? If you leave this place right now, I won’t touch your friend.
Whew.
The screen shook as Mr. Hyunam said that.
-Keuuuk... ... .
A painful voice was heard. It was Han Jaeyoung’s voice. It was clear that Mr. Hyunam was strangling Han Jaeyoung’s neck.
-You have to save your friend, Lucy. He’s in so much pain... ... .
At least it’s not painful it was not sothing I should have said.
- Guild Leader Han Jae-young, you are such a precious being. You cherish such good beings.
“......”
- As I said, if you could kill one to save ten, that would be right, but... ... You are different from .
Hyun-am’s voice was heard through Han Jae-young’s ears.
- If you agree to a ceasefire, shoot fireworks into the sky. I’ll give you ten minutes.
That was the last ti.
The image the system displayed turned black. It probably ant that Han Jae-young’s consciousness had been cut off.
I closed my eyes tightly once and opened them.
“Everything that bastard says is nonsense, but... my options have narrowed.”
This was a part that deserved pure applause.
I want to run to Hyun-am right now and tear his limbs apart, but... ... .
Kkkkkkkk!
The situation is not so good.
The monsters that had found food were constantly rushing towards this side.
The administrators that I had used as at shields were now slowly dying as their physical regeneration reached its limit.
With their numbers decreasing this much, it would be difficult to use them as a way to buy ti in the front. Inevitably, the ti had co when I would have to step forward to block the monsters’ approach.
“They seem useless.”
I swore.
To be honest, I was worried and at a crossroads.
Would it be better to give up the city and accept that ceasefire offer?
‘It’s annoying because it seems like they’re just accepting it, but... ... That might be better.’
I tapped the calculator in my head.
Putting aside the nonsense about saving Han Jae-young and all, the risk I would have to take if I were to defend the city alone in this situation was too great.
It would be difficult to deal with the monsters while also taking out Mr. Hyeon-am.
It’s impossible to protect the city anyway.
Then wouldn’t it be more efficient to leave the certain damage alone and save what can be saved?
Furthermore, if you weigh the value of all these Soju people and Han Jae-young, it’s the sa. Regardless of our friendship, I wanted to side with the latter.
In the first place, didn’t the people of this city ignore the fact that outsiders who entered the city would disappear without a trace?
I can’t say that the guilt for that is light.
- Please help . It’s all my fault. The child is not at fault.
- Please be careful, my sage!
... ... Yes, there must be ignorant victims.
But even so, isn’t Han Jae-young a good person who even the system acknowledges?
In that case, it would be better to just save Han Jae-young... ... .
- Don’t think useless thoughts.
My eyes widened at the voice I heard at that mont.
A voice flowed out from the black screen that I thought had already disappeared.
-Don't give up, people... ... .
-This.
Sudden.
With the smiling voice of Mr. Hyunam, the screen finally disappeared.
I thought he had lost consciousness, but it seed that he had just closed his eyes.
And he created a situation where he could speak and conveyed his intentions for the last ti.
I looked up at the sky after hearing the last words.
Really, I felt like my stomach was boiling.
Of course, because of anger and irritation.
"......Why do I have to worry like this, like an old-fashioned warrior?"
This is really unfair.
Should I save one person or save many?
No matter how much I think about it, it's not who should be faced with this kind of crossroads, but the warrior.
A soul like who has once fallen would rather have the fun of deciding whether to kill just one person or destroy the world!
- If I can save ten by killing one, then that's the right thing to do.
-But you are different from .
However, I couldn’t avoid it forever, feeling irritated.
Even so, the 10 minutes that had been scheduled were passing.
Should I surrender and take Han Jae-young with , or should I abandon Han Jae-young and protect the city?
“Grrrrr!”
Even in the midst of all this, Leo was dealing with the monsters that were rushing in.
Leo had been fighting monsters for hours, so his stamina was starting to wear down.
I bit my lips tightly as I watched the monsters rushing in.
Soon, I made up my mind.
I took out a short staff from my inventory and lifted it... ....
Kwakwakwak!
With a loud noise, the monsters that had been rushing at Leo died.
My body froze at the sound.
I wasn’t just startled by the sound.
That loud noise wasn’t caused by the magic I cast.
I turned my head.
“Haaaaap!”
Once again, with a shout, the sa black energy as before shot out.
A huge bastard sword covered in silver.
Now familiar gray hair.
Dozens of monsters disappeared with the sword strike that shot out.
In fact, I knew who it was without even looking back.
There are only a handful of people in the world who can use this kind of swordsmanship.
Yuhan-ul t my eyes and smiled.
“How tired are you that you don’t recognize when I talk to you? I called you earlier......”
“Hey!”
I ended up shouting without realizing it. Yuhan-ul opened his eyes wide in surprise.
“Oh, no...... why?”
“Where did you go, you punk, co back now!”
“Uh...... for now, I’m just killing zombies......”
“Apologize to first!”
“......Sorry?”
Ugh!
I approached Yoo Han-ul, who was apologizing obediently, and threw a punch.
Yoo Han-ul, who was hit in the face, covered his cheek in a daze.
“I apologized.......”
“If apologizing solved everything, why would there be violence in this world?!”
“At least violence would disappear......wow, it hurts.”
This was truly a heroic appearance.
Who would have thought Yoo Han-ul, who had been missing, would show up at this timing!
When I looked closely, Yoo Han-ul looked as if he was covered in wounds.
Even without saying anything, I could guess why he had been missing for three days. He must have fought a pretty tough battle.
However, right now, I was in no mood to be a supporting actor who welcod the appearance of that hero.
I imdiately gave Yoo Han-ul an order.
“Yoo Han-ul, you take charge of this place for now. This is the city’s last line of defense.”
“Huh? What is that.......”
“Looking at your condition, it seems like it’s going to be tough, but I’ll leave Leo behind, so you two just hold on a little longer. Reinforcents will be coming soon.”
“Reinforcents, what the heck...... No, what are you going to do?”
Bang!
Without answering, I shot a firework into the sky and kicked my foot.
And it wasn’t to run forward.
Whioooooo!
A huge wind like a typhoon blew. Yoo Han-ul staggered in the wind, but he didn’t have ti to care.
I also felt a surge of power that was too much for to handle, and it was hard to control my body.
- The ‘Covenant of the Morning Star’ skill was used.
- Temporarily unlocks all potential abilities.
However, I didn’t have ti to enjoy the strength I had regained after a long ti.
After flapping the huge black wings that rose from my back once, I started flying away at a rapid pace.
- The system indicates the location of the fragnt.
Orbis.
Today is the second day that I will tear your soul to pieces.
