After Kim Mari died, could Yor defeat Amducias?
Unfortunately, he could not.
As soon as he killed Kim Mari, the demon leisurely flew off into the sky and disappeared.
“Hmph, today was supposed to be a great day. And it ended with a disappointnt...”
He muttered such pointless words.
Yor and his companions could only watch blankly.
It was already difficult to catch a flying creature.
Yor was ntally exhausted from the unicorn’s gift and its psychological attack.
He felt like he could follow, but he didn’t really want to.
He just wanted to go ho and rest...
“... I guess I’ll have to return this later?”
Thus, the group had no choice but to return with the money pouch dropped by Mari.
Of all things to drop, it had to be the money pouch. She said she would personally return it to Chae-rin later.
The silver lining was that at least no one here had suffered a loss.
No, in fact, they had made a profit.
Even though they hadn’t achieved their original goal of taking the unicorn’s head, everyone received a gift.
As they rode the carriage ho, Chae-rin and Ha-neul briefly pondered.
‘But still, it seems like we haven’t accomplished anything yet...’
To be fair, they had sowhat expected that since he was a guy who lived in the forest all the ti.
The penalty of ‘demon’s blood’ likely ant he wouldn’t be able to find a suitable opponent either.
However, the thought of ‘just in case’ lingered in their minds.
After all, his appearance was quite striking. But now, with the unicorn having issued a certificate of purity... it felt a bit nice.
Of course, the person who received the gift felt quite embarrassed.
Anyway, that was the end of their encounter with the unicorn.
...But the buzz in the community was just beginning.
After all, the scene of Kim Mari’s death had been broadcast live.
Naturally, the fact that Amducias could discern purity in reality spread among users.
Thanks to this, users were thrown into a whirlwind of shock and horror.
It was already creepy enough that a ga character could know what they had eaten yesterday.
But now, he could even determine their sexual history in reality!
What on earth did they do? Did they just guess? Is it permissible for the ga to dig into users' private lives?
A plethora of questions and complaints arose.
So even absurdly wondered if that place was truly a different world.
However, aside from that, the responses were not very positive.
Even if the technology was impressive, it was ultimately an invasion of user privacy.
Though limited to the community, the flas of discontent were quite fierce.
Perhaps the ga company felt burdened by such flas, or maybe they wanted to show off their technology. Strangely enough, they issued a clarification statent this ti.
A ga company notorious for its lack of communication releasing a clarification statent was quite unusual.
The server team staff mber, GM Bashin, stated that it was a side effect caused by a high-performance AI.
When users created characters in Demon's Saga, their physical information was automatically registered in capsules.
This was necessary to create characters that resembled the users.
However, it seed that the high-performance AI developed for the ga’s NPCs had inadvertently read the users' biotric information.
This was why such a happening had occurred.
GM Bashin concluded the statent by saying they would try to minimize such incidents in the future.
Users' reactions to this were mixed.
[Wait, how does an AI read biotric information??]
Is that even possible?
Even if you fed it an alien, it would be difficult for it to do that, ga company!
[For real, lol]
[Anyway, it’s a technical glitch~]
[Honestly, just saying it’s a different world makes more sense, lol]
Distrust.
[Now that I think about it, it’s chilling.]
So, if these bastards wanted to, wouldn’t they be able to figure out how many tis I had sex yesterday?
How many tis I did it the day before, how many tis I’m planning to do it today?
Does that an they could spy on in real-ti?
Wow...
No, I need to back off right now.
[?]
[Why is that the conclusion? ㄷㄷ]
Shock.
[We’ve read your information.]
So what?
What does that even an, lol?
Am I going to quit this ga? Is there anything to replace it with? lol
Just shut up and play the ga.
[Always grateful!]
[No way, this ga can’t fail. I still haven’t earned my rent for this month.]
[N Get that rice!~ Exciting rice!~]
[It’s ridiculous that you say you’ll make sure such things don’t happen again but rather that you’ll try to cause them less. Is this a joke? lol]
[N Hey Kim, stop whining and just go to work. Aren’t you going to work today?]
[N No, I have to...]
Understanding.
Just how advanced must AI be to read that? And how specific must biotric information be to figure that out?
Honestly, it’s a bit creepy, but the overall atmosphere was one of acceptance.
There was simply no other ga with such technological prowess.
Already, there were plenty of so-called “dark gars” earning money within the ga.
Demon's Saga had ingrained itself too deeply into their daily lives to quit over this.
Moreover, as the ga company said, the ability to discern reality’s sexual history had not occurred frequently.
A few days later, news of Amducias’s defeat spread.
After getting my ntal state slightly shaken by that damn unicorn, I returned to my cave for a while to recuperate.
I needed ti to adapt to the gifts he had given .
Though my primary goal of defeating the demon had failed... well, the demon hunt had been carried out.
The second commander of the Empire had beheaded Amducias.
After all, he couldn’t live for that long.
As a distinctive individual, his location had been shared in real-ti.
This information naturally reached the military’s ears as well.
Given that he had killed many who had lost their purity, it was only natural for a hunting party to be ford.
But how did they manage to catch a flying creature?
The answer was simple: the demon had charged at the second commander first.
With an extrely angry face...
“You filthy!!! Non-virgin!!!!!!”
Such a roar burst forth.
Though there were other knights nearby at the ti, just how angry must he have been...?
It seed the second commander was quite reckless with his body.
Of course, it was unthinkable that soone of a commander’s caliber would lack skill, so he perished gloriously, leaving only that solid horn behind.
...Well, it was a fitting end for him. I had honestly started to feel a bit fond of that friend.
Even though he had vanished like that, the gifts he left behind remained.
As ti passed, I had sowhat adapted to them.
Just as he had said, I could now control them to so extent. If my hearing beca too overwhelming, I could voluntarily reduce it.
The ability I gained was indeed quite useful.
“.........”
I focused my ears, concentrating on the sounds outside the cave.
Countless noises occurring in the forest pierced my ears.
Of course, since they were happening far away, the sounds weren’t as loud as if they were right in front of .
However, I could distinguish the many sounds within them.
The simple sound of the wind brushing through the leaves, the sound of a wild boar digging up the ground to make its territory, and even the distant cries of goblins...
‘...Impressive?’
Having heard that much, I nodded to myself.
The unicorn had left with quite a useful ability. The expanded range of detection in this forest was a trendous advantage.
After all, it was a place filled with fierce beasts lurking in all directions.
Being able to detect danger even a second earlier in such a place significantly increased my chances of survival.
Not only that,
If I did well, I could even hold my ground against those lurking deep within.
My original detection ability wasn’t lacking, but no matter what, I couldn’t compare to the beastly bastards.
Of course, their combat power was an issue too... but being able to stand a chance against them was a huge advantage.
At the very least, I wouldn’t have to worry as much about being ambushed by those monsters.
‘Maybe I should try a little sampling later.’
Thanks to that, I briefly entertained such thoughts.
The depths were undoubtedly dangerous territory, but it was also a space rich with precious herbs.
It was a place rarely visited by humans, so there were many plants that had grown over ti.
Among those plants, there must be so that could increase mana like elixirs.
It seed worth attempting to take a look around.
Just as I was sorting through my thoughts, I heard another sound in my hyper-sensitive ears.
The sound of footsteps. However, it was a very familiar sound.
There weren’t many who would walk so cautiously for fear of being killed by a monster.
I went outside first to greet the approaching person.
As expected, it was Yoo Chae-rin. She looked surprised when she saw .
“Uh, what? How did you know I was coming?”
“I heard the sounds.”
“...Sounds? From this distance?”
She looked at incredulously. Honestly, I found it a bit fascinating too.
First, I asked her.
“More importantly, why are you here again?”
After all, it was just a few days ago that I had heard the news about the demon hunt.
Though she had been visiting quite often lately, the interval felt too short.
When I asked, she gave a aningful smile.
“Hehe, I ca to brag.”
Then she confidently declared.
“I reached level 100!”
Hearing that, I tilted my head.
“Already...?”
