The Game of the Grea Chapter 310

Chapter 310

In the past, black magic was not well-regarded.

No, it was worse than not being well-regarded.

They were called witches, those who contracted with demons.

Because they were distinguished as evil beings.

Seonghyun knew that well too, but.

Still, wasn't it Will who used black magic to help the village?

Wouldn't the villagers know that?

He had such hopeful thoughts, but.

Seonghyun could see it.

The residents looking at Will with fear.

And their faces, contorted as if looking at sothing disgusting.

“……”

No way.

Is that the reason why the system created a monster here?

As Seonghyun was watching with that thought.

Before long, Barbaros also returned to the village.

“Seonghyun-nim, the wave just ended… huh?”

Barbaros, who had returned like that, also noticed sothing was strange and looked at Seonghyun and the villagers.

The villagers and Will, with an unusual atmosphere.

He gulped as he saw it.

Even with just the wave, it was a difficulty that he wondered if he could have cleared it if it weren't for Seonghyun.

Since it was Legendary rank.

He thought it was natural, but.

Still, he was glad he cleared it.

What was this atmosphere?

Just as Barbaros was nervously shifting his eyes.

One of the villagers saw the two and shouted urgently.

“Y-you've co at a good ti! W-Will is using black magic!”

It was by no ans a voice asking for congratulations.

A voice laced with intense fear and disgust.

And the words that followed could only surprise both of them.

“Q-quickly kill that wicked one!”

“……What did you say?”

Did they just ask him to kill that small child?

Barbaros's eyes trembled as if he couldn't believe it.

Seonghyun had already experienced this phenonon through the mories of ghosts.

So he was used to it, but.

Nevertheless, perhaps because anger surged.

He bit his lip with his teeth, and his lips turned pale.

Seonghyun's fists also turned pale.

However, he did not take any particular action.

Because he knew better than anyone that there was nothing they could do now.

Barbaros tried to do sothing, but.

He couldn't move his body.

Like an event scene.

At that mont, Will stepped forward and tried to say sothing.

“I-I was…”

Trying to protect the village.

Black magic is not an evil power.

He probably wanted to say that.

But.

The mont Will opened his mouth.

The villagers poured out their malice, and it gradually spread.

“He must be a demon!!!”

“He used black magic!!!”

“The monster wave must have been caused by him too!!!”

“And he must have deceived us with that innocent face!!!”

“He handles ghosts!!!”

“Q-quickly cut off that demon's head!!!”

“He might be a minion of the Demon King!!!”

Barbaros was thrown into a panic by those words.

And Seonghyun, though he was enduring it as much as he could, stood there as if in pain.

A situation where both of them could hardly move.

In that situation, Will swallowed hard, and his face turned pale.

He just wanted to grow stronger and protect the village.

What returned for his good intentions was malice.

A sense of disgust disguised as fear and a terrible madness swept through the villagers.

Of course, Will knew why they were acting like that.

He himself would have considered black magic evil if it weren't for Helena.

But now he knows that's not the case. Because he had used it himself.

Black magic, unlike demonic arts, doesn't require human sacrifices.

It is just one type of magic created based on dark magic power.

However, Will could not reverse the madness born of ignorance.

No, he lacked the power to reverse it.

As Will, who felt fear from the collective madness, turned around with a pale complexion.

There.

“M-Mom.”

“To think my child was a demon…”

“You demon child!!! What have you done to our Will!!!”

There was his mother, collapsing to the floor sobbing, and.

His father, who was enraged and shouting, calling him a demon and demanding the real Will back, and seeing that, Will's heart crumbled.

Terribly cold tears flowed down his face at the sight of being denied even by his parents.

Barbaros, who saw that, also covered his mouth and shed tears, and Seonghyun let out a small sigh.

It was terribly cruel.

But.

'This must be the original history.'

Since he thoroughly did not allow any monsters.

It showed this scene by directly summoning a monster.

If it didn't flow like this, he wouldn't have been able to see Will Baghdad's history.

The history that was changed like that was too cruel.

Being abandoned even by his own parents.

At that mont, Will felt that everything was in vain.

And inside the boy's mind, he rembered the red-haired woman smiling.

“…Ah.”

And as if he had realized sothing.

He muttered.

The promise he made to go find her when he could protect the village even if he were to fall.

As that promise he had resolved in his heart blossod.

He ca to look around his surroundings.

No one in this place would protect him.

In that case, did he not need to protect them either?

As that thought occurred to him, Will was shaken.

And at that mont.

“Go. We are here.”

Seonghyun said.

It sounded like he was telling him to get lost.

But the mont Will heard those words, he could understand.

He would protect this village.

So for now, leave.

Will, who heard those words, looked at Seonghyun with gratitude and disappeared from that spot with the specter.

And watching that, the villagers shouted, saying they could finally be relieved.

“Ahh! The rcenaries have saved our village from the evil demon!”

“They are heroes like Hindel-nim!!!”

“Keuheueueu!! Thank you!!!”

The villagers said so and sent their praises, but.

For so reason, Barbaros felt a surge of nausea and wanted to vomit.

And as if understanding that feeling.

A system ssage popped up.

[You have completed the Legendary rank story, 『The Village Boy's Sorrow』.]

[A reward will be given.]

As he ca out of the book with the experience points.

Barbaros trembled and muttered.

“No, how could they do that!? He fought, revealing his power to save them!!!”

Barbaros, completely indignant and upset.

He seed to have been incredibly imrsed, as he looked quite angry.

Well, Seonghyun wasn't much different.

He was extrely angry, but.

Because he knew well that it was a past that had already passed.

He was barely able to endure it.

And watching Seonghyun, Barbaros was also able to calm down.

“Hoo, I never imagined it would unfold like this.”

“...It was set in stone.”

“...There were hints, after all.”

“The actual history must have been like that.”

“...Ah.”

At Seonghyun's words, Barbaros, who once again realized that this was a real event that had happened in the past and not just a story, sadly lowered his eyes.

Then.

“Still, thanks to you, Seonghyun-nim, I'm glad Will seed a little relieved.”

“Hmm?”

“No, I an, from your last words, Will seed a bit relieved.”

Words Seonghyun had said without even realizing it.

Seonghyun smiled a bit awkwardly at the story that the words had healed his wounds a little.

Well, that could be true.

Weren't there quite a few such experiences engraved in Seonghyun's mories?

Helena, Serphina, and various other mories were like that.

Because of that, he felt that Over Palace was amazing all over again.

Didn't it an that everyone was like that in the past?

It was Over Palace that changed that.

So that sothing like what happened to Helena would never happen again.

It was no different from changing this entire world.

That demons and black mages were different beings.

That's why Seonghyun saw Over Palace in a new light.

'They were amazing people.'

So that there would be no more persecuted black mages…

At that mont.

-In the past, there were many cases of naturally awakening to black magic. And…

Helena said so and trailed off.

It was the sa for general magic, but.

It was said that there were cases where people handled black magic through natural awakening.

But because of that perception.

-Most of them died unfairly like that.

“Hoo.”

Seonghyun sighed at Helena's words.

He wasn't usually the type to get so imrsed.

And it was understandable, wasn't it just a ga?

But was it because he had inherited the mories and experiences of the ghosts?

He could empathize with them a little.

It was pitiful and wretched.

As Seonghyun thought of them, he could understand why Helena had fought so hard.

-And with Helena-nim's death, the black mages of the whole world were able to gather. Of course, there were those who went mad with grief like , but Over Palace was created by the majority of them uniting.

-…….

At Leonik's words, Helena cut her words short.

It wasn't that her death was a good thing.

She closed her mouth, perhaps feeling sorry for making so many people sad.

But.

-I, I think the current Over Palace e, exists because Helena-nim sacrificed herself.

Fiora also chid in.

If it weren't for Helena's sacrifice.

The current Over Palace would not exist.

And that was true.

Because Helena's death beca the trigger for all the black mages to unite.

Her vassals wandered in sorrow and lost their way, but.

It also beca an opportunity to change the perception of black mages throughout the world.

Seonghyun felt a bit sad at that thought.

‘…….’

It would have been better if Helena had lived.

But it was sothing that had already passed.

Because the past couldn't be changed.

-I don't die.

At Seonghyun's words.

Why was it?

All the vassals could feel a pang in their hearts.

The way Seonghyun spoke casually, as if telling them not to worry.

At that sight, everyone sniffled and wiped away their tears.

“Ahem.”

At the vassals' reaction, Seonghyun felt a little embarrassed and cleared his throat unnecessarily.

Barbaros heard that and seed to have cald down a bit as he said.

“Shall we go to the next volu right away?”

Along with Barbaros's words.

Sure enough.

A phrase popped up.

[Traces of the 『Necromancer Lord』 remain.]

[Find the Legendary rank story, 『The Wandering Youth's Revenge』.]

Revenge?

This ti, it's revenge.

No way?

Could it be revenge on the villagers?

He had a slightly worried heart, but.

Hadn't he already heard a glimpse of what kind of person Will Baghdad was?

Furthermore.

-He's not that kind of child.

There was even Helena's denial.

To be honest.

'I do think those villagers deserve so revenge.'

As Seonghyun, who was inwardly angry, said so harshly.

So of the vassals smiled slyly.

Anyway.

“Do you know the next volu too?”

“Yes! Of course, I've already found it!”

As if it were a matter of course, Barbaros knew and guided Seonghyun to the book.

So ti had passed, but.

It was a ti when they could probably do one more.

Because Seonghyun had gone all out using his vassals.

It was thanks to the wave ending sooner than expected.

Barbaros guided him to the next book like that.

And he was able to find it right away.

『The Wandering Youth's Revenge』

Sure enough.

“It's not revenge on the villagers, is it?”

“Hmm, probably not, right?”

“Well, Will was a good kid. Still, I think those villagers deserve what's coming to them.”

Watching Barbaros spit out those words with conviction, Seonghyun also inwardly nodded and smiled.

And both of them touched the book, and a phrase popped up.

[The scenario of 『The Wandering Youth's Revenge』 will begin.]
