I Became a Madman in the Game - I Became a Madman in the Game chapter 145
Episode. 45 Those who want to see light as light (1)
When a member of the coalition was reduced to ashes in a sudden fire, they did not understand.
why do they have to die
what did you do wrong
Did he have to be summarily executed for any crime?
I didn’t understand then.
I just couldn’t stop the young boy they served, Alan, so I just stood by.
But now I know.
ah.
They must have been eaten.
in this darkness.
gurgling-
The darkness quickly ate away at the wizards’ bodies.
let’s not change
Let’s just not go crazy.
Even with such a thick wall around the heart, the darkness only coveted the body more tenaciously.
And, at least with such a body, I arrived here.
They left Marx to live as themselves, but on the short road to this place, they picked up resignation.
Before anyone knew it, the area in front of the royal castle was transformed into a place for self-determination.

“Please kill me. young master.”
Roan and the wizards bowed their heads to Alan.
In their minds, the image of the young master who burned heresy was imprinted.
“Please kill me. We don’t want to go crazy.”
“I want to be human until the end. Please, before it’s too late.”
Since half of the body has gone dark, there will be no way to go back.
There are only two roads.
Become a lunatic and ride on Marx’s madness, or at least close your eyes when it’s normal.
Wizards chose the latter.
Blazing-
A fire broke out.
Alan’s blue hair danced in the white fire.
“Did you want to die?”
he took a step closer
“Is that enough for you?”
Wearing the torch, Alan appeared emotionless.
I just asked in a low-pitched voice.
The wizards who took refuge hit their foreheads on the ground.
His whole body was trembling.
“… … I want to live. We do not want to die.”
“But why do you want me to kill you?”
“More than that, I didn’t want to go crazy. We already know what real light is.”
Roan raised his head.
Those eyes that were full of Alan and Richard were desperate.
“I would rather die in the light than crave that awful darkness.”
The Red Plague Giant, Calgos.
The devil’s magic was disgusting.
To the wizards who fought fierce battles with such beings, Magi was something they never wanted to accept.
Rather, as the sun went down, the light rose.
Just as the light only shines when it is dark.
“excellent. Roan. Family wizards.”
Alan laughed.
Even as Roan, who had been supporting him for a long time, it was a satisfied smile that he had never seen before.
Fire-!
The flames roared like waves.
The ferocious flame opened its mouth.
The wizards, located on the border between humans and demons, humbly closed their eyes.
“uh… … ?”
But it wasn’t hot.
There was nothing wrong with the burning white body.
There was only a sizzling, boiling sound coming from somewhere.
The power of the holy fire that burns the darkness.
No one could see their expressions surrounded by white fire.
“Even though your body might be eaten by demons, you have preserved your hearts. You deserve to live out the darkness. Live to judge those eaten by darkness. Judge and end the darkness.”
The boy’s voice was heard over the wall of fire.
“Ahhh… … .”
The flame of the torch was warm.
Roan and the wizards trembled in the flames.
I didn’t know, but it must have been cold all along.
It was only after touching the fire that I realized how cold the darkness that gnawed at my body was.
“thanks. “Resisters.”
At that moment, a holy voice rang out.
Richard, he was coming through the flames.
“Thank you for coming all the way here with a body like that and enduring it.”
As the torch passed by, his steps stopped.
The fire roared loudly.
Twisting and staggering, at one point, it soared.
The torch was welcoming Richard’s deity.
“Those who want to see light as light. came well Take off the dirty clothes and put on the light.”
The fire rose enough to reach the barrier in the sky.
In it, not a single bit of darkness could be seen.
how long has it been like that
The whitest flame in the world died out.
In the spot, the wizards who had regained their flesh were lying unconscious.
Its appearance, without a trace of soot, looked peaceful, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep.
“… … .”
Members of the royal family, who were constantly on alert, were silent.
trust.
I had finally witnessed the fragmentation of power that Richard and Alan had been arguing for.
And I saw firsthand the wretchedness of those who betrayed me.
A strange expression that could not be hidden on their faces flickered.
◈ ◈ ◈
It was the evening after a day when Marx’s magicians came to their senses.
The royal family called a meeting again.
“Marx is preparing to trample on Laplace thoroughly. I sent messengers to all countries urging them to stop interacting with this country.”
Roan, who was dragged out as soon as he opened his eyes, detailed everything he saw.
Even if he was distracted in the face of the miracle, there was no shortage of reporting on Marx’s situation.
“Lord Marx is pushing to destroy Laplace and declare war on the North Continent. He also urged his family vassals to serve the dark. He called darkness light and praised God.”
Roan’s complexion turned pale.
The blackened Marx, the cry of Bapel resounding in the middle was vivid.
If Marx goes completely dark.
Here are the neighboring countries.
Then, and finally… … .
“We must stop them! Today’s Marx is degenerate!”
There was no family with the belief that they would stand on the edge of magic.
He followed darkness over magic, madness over faith.
“It is no different from the undead who see the dead as the living and the living as the dead. If their madness spreads across the continent… … ! Then it will be a world of madmen!”
At the earnest voice, the members of the hall let out a sigh.
He was a living witness.
Roan, now with a desperate face, was the living witness.
“… … .”
The royal mages exchanged glances.
Left to right, right to front.
Again from the front to the left.
At some point, the eyes that were busy exchanging were focused on one place.
to the woman on the throne.
The meaning of those gazes all came down to one.
“Richard.”
The king opened his mouth.
“I will not accept your offer. The Kingdom of Laplace will accept everything of the Hoor religion and will gain insight. Please share the grace of being served by Horgyo.”
The king represented the will of his subjects.
The servants borrowed the king’s mouth and revealed their intentions.
Of course, that was never easy.
Belief, trust, and faith inevitably change many things.
The kingdom, which the king cared for until he gave up his eyes, will change greatly from today.
And Laplace, the continent had to change.
The King of Laplace and the wizards were willing to lead the wave of the flow.
“It is a wise decision.”
sh*t.
Richard laughed.
It was a smile brimming with joy.
On that day, another flagpole was planted in Laplace’s castle.
◈ ◈ ◈
The atmosphere in the kingdom could not be said to be good even in the right words.
The citizens of the royal capital saw it.
The king who came back covered in blood.
All sorts of nasty voices leaked into my ears.
So, citizens spit out what they saw and heard with their eyes and ears.
[The Marx family is hostile to Laplace.]
[They said that their army had already arrived before their eyes.]
[The Southern Continent abandoned Laplace.]
Even the barriers that block demons under the sky can’t stop ugly rumors.
Even more so, it wasn’t just a rumor.
thud. thud.
Hundreds of horsemen emblazoned with royal symbols lined the bottom of the outer walls.
Proud wizards ran around busily several times a day.
Nobles who ruled each territory frequently visited the capital.
However, none of them left the royal capital again.
preparing for war.
War with Marx.
Maybe a war with the Southern Continent.
There were only bad rumors, and the citizens trembled with anxiety.
Then one day, the king’s voice rang through the royal road.
[We, Laplace, prepare for war.]
She was looking down at the citizens from the royal castle.
The voice amplification magic tool trembled.
[Our enemy is a white sea and futile heresy.]
[They have lost their justification and are not qualified to rule the Southern Continent, and a dark curtain has been drawn over their eyes.]
[Now this world will be divided into light and darkness.]
The magic tool spread the king’s proclamation not only to the capital but also to Laplace.
[People of Laplace.]
[Do not put up a tent over your eyes for fear of heresy.]
[Laplace is willing to serve the light to deal with heresy.]
flutter.
Numerous flagpoles rose from the walls of the royal castle.
All of them were flags of families belonging to Laplace Kingdom.
And in the meantime, the Horgyo’s insignia fluttered.
Citizens widened their eyes.
unfamiliar feathers.
unfamiliar light.
Unfamiliar word, heresy.
It was difficult to accept any of them all of a sudden.
[The King of Laplace, Alisa Marx, will promise the people.]
[We will win.]
[So look carefully.]
A little boy suddenly raised his head.
The sky was gloomy, just like any other day.
It was slowly opening.
“uh!”
A ray of light broke through the dark clouds.
The little child who likes sunlight smiled brightly.
Then the beam of light stretched into dozens of branches.
『Law(律法)-Activation.』
Auspicious light poured from the open sky.
The light formed the stone tablets.
Even more awe-inspiring light carved an intaglio on the surface of the slate.
Kings, nobles and citizens too.
Everyone looked up at the sky.
The stone slab slowly, very slowly landed on the plaza of the royal capital.
By the time the god finally touched the ground, light had already covered the kingdom.
[Laplace will become a religious state as of today.]
The king, who could see more than others, spoke without taking his eyes off the slate.
There was joy and longing in his eyes.
The answer to the question Alan asked about ten years ago, called peace.
I felt like I had found a clue to it.
