I Can See the Comments on the Doomed Novel - Chapter 122
122 – Day 2
Should I say the past or the present continuous?
It was an extremely coincidence that Eve saw Jihoon’s broadcast.
“Hmm~ I’m free.”
I yawned and said as if I had nothing to do today.
It wasn’t like I didn’t have anything to do as usual.
Because this is an extremely quiet world, unknown to even the same godhead.
There are very few deities who contact or visit this place.
Although some of them are very famous gods, they also don’t come every day.
In the first place, even if many gods came, Eve’s treatment would not have been different.
‘It’s nice because it’s peaceful, but it’s a bit boring after all.’
While thinking so, she looked at the scenery in front of her eyes.
Rabbits are running and playing on the grass where the warm sunlight pours dazzlingly.
If you zoom in a little further, you can see some rabbits doing some farming.
Children watering crops, each wearing a straw hat or apron.
The crops grown here are amazingly delicious.
The quality of the sun, rainfall, land, and seeds are excellent.
Crops grow quickly just by planting, but rabbits live by farming diligently.
In the end, even if the rabbits eat until their stomachs are full, the crops remain, and it is normal for other animals to secretly take them.
It is too peaceful.
The evaluation of other deities would not be very wrong.
At least here there are no fights, no quarrels.
Of course, there is no story about monsters attacking good citizens or heroes defeating them.
Maybe that’s why this ‘world’ has always been on the outskirts.
‘As expected, it’s peaceful.’
That’s not to say I don’t like it.
Coins that are not particularly useful are gathering smoothly.
I feel that this kind of scenery and the children who live there are all lovely.
However, I thought it was a bit boring.
Should I say a life lacking stimulation?
If this is the case, I feel like I’m going to stay blankly forever and then turn into a fossil.
‘Should I make something as a hobby?’
But even after thinking about it, nothing came to mind.
I heard that other deities learn a lot or make friends.
I don’t want to do anything so aggressively.
Is it because he was concentrating?
I didn’t notice until the guardian, ‘Lupus’, came to my side.
“What other weird thoughts are you thinking about?”
“What a strange idea! I’m always working hard and thinking about this planet, right?”
“Even if Eve doesn’t do that, the world will go well anyway.”
“Ooh!”
Eve slapped Lupus with his little hand.
Even if he did, he wouldn’t even feel touched.
Because lupus is a wolf that can chew down even a tree.
Pippi!
Come on~!
Some rabbits have been watching him and pretending to know him.
A wolf, he was a vegetarian.
Occasionally, the rabbits would remove a rock they had no choice but to show up.
“Are you bored?”
“…I’m tired of running with Lupus on his back.”
“Well, I pride myself on being faster than horses in the grasslands. If you do that hundreds of times alone, you will get tired of it.”
Rupus’ attitude toward Eve was a little annoying.
First of all, I am a guardian of this place, and from a position point of view, I am a subject of Eve.
However, the world is so peaceful that it puts that word to shame.
First of all, they treat each other with courtesy, but between the two of them, it wasn’t that formal.
In a sense, it would be fair to say that they are much closer than other gods and their servants.
Actually, this isn’t the first time we’ve had a conversation like this.
Perhaps after some whining, he will find a new game or hang out with other spirits.
Just today, however, there was a slightly different story.
“Recently, a quest has begun against the humans of Earth.”
“Ummm, has that happened already?”
Even at Lupus’s words, Eve made an expression that didn’t seem to give it away.
If you say it’s a quest, it’s inevitable that someone will die and blood will flow.
In fact, the number of gods who like it is overwhelming.
But it is not a very pleasant sight for Eve, who has always seen only peaceful scenery.
“Still, why don’t you take this opportunity to take a look? Signing a great player and making God’s name known is definitely a divine thing.”
“Hmm. I know that.”
Eve smiled bitterly as he saw Lupus speaking in a slightly stern voice unlike usual.
“Maybe even if I die and wake up, I won’t believe in or support humans?”
****
The next day.
About a day after the quest started.
Rainer and Shao-Mei sat side by side in a stronghold built overnight.
It’s not unusual for two people who should compete with each other to face each other like this.
In other words, it also means that there was something ‘to that extent’.
Of course, those who stand in the way of each other are the ones who took their place while killing each other.
It was impossible to treat each other friendly after one night.
Just sitting there.
Even common morning greetings don’t come and go.
‘A woman like this is the representative of a Chinese group. She must have acquired some pretty good skills.’
‘Rainer… If he’s skilled enough to lead a team like this, it’s not normal.’
The two are just quietly looking at each other and grasping each other.
I don’t like the searched gaze.
I didn’t even fight openly.
If I had a personality that got excited that easily in the first place, I wouldn’t have come this far.
“Sorry for this late. Haha… Even though he’s the one who gathered them, he has no face.”
The person who came in saying that was a man with short blond hair and a white suit.
The man naturally sat down and continued with a natural smile.
“Still, gathering like this… Can be said to have accepted my alliance, right?”
“Even if it’s a temporary alliance, you still have to clear the quest.”
Said Xiao Mei, sipping her tea.
Raynor nodded her head in agreement.
“More than that, Cain, are you certain that your deity is Apollo, and that you have the power of prophecy?”
“Yes, of course. Compared to the power that Lord Apollo has, it is insignificant power.”
The blond man’s name is Cain.
He’s one of the players who participated in this quest, and he’s the one who signed a contract with Apollo.
In general, it is a rule to keep information about skills and characteristics secret between players.
This is because it is not strange if one’s information acts as a weakness in any way.
However, the contracted deity provides clues to attack.
If you know that you signed a contract with ‘Achilles’ for example, you can easily recall that your heel is your weak point.
Rainer and Shao-Mei, who received the alliance’s offer right away, did not tell them their skills and information.
Revealing it first means that you trust the other person and at the same time have the confidence that there will be no problem even if you reveal it.
In fact, Cain was able to convince the leaders of a large group with his skills or through conciliation, and put them in front of him like this.
“As I said before, I checked the clear conditions of this quest in advance through the ‘Prophecy’ ability. The biggest obstacle to this is the deity who rules this world, and she is said to have joined hands with the player who committed the first murder.”
“Can you know that far with your prophecy?”
“Conversely, that is why it is a prophecy. It’s a pity that we don’t know what kind of person they are other than that.”
First of all, it’s not a story that doesn’t make much sense.
A godhead whose life was threatened by a quest.
And also a player who was chased by the same human because of the penalty.
If the enemy is the same, it is worth holding hands.
“But does that mean he is that strong? Enough for a man like you to hold hands?”
“Yes, it is certain that the player is strong enough to deliberately warn through the oracle. Besides, there are many things to think about from the point of view of chasing.”
Of course, if you simply think of tracking, it is overwhelmingly advantageous to be able to check the opponent’s location in real time.
However, the possibility that the opponent prepared in advance and set a trap cannot be ignored.
“I don’t have defeat in mind, but the more allies I have, the more reliable I am. We don’t have to take each other’s losses, don’t we?”
If you add up all three of the men here, it would be close to 100.
Even more so, all of them were talented people who were in their own way.
It’s hard to think of defeat at all.
“So I’d like to think of making a temporary alliance with you and going after that player. Oh, of course, you shouldn’t touch the godhead carelessly. At that time, please think of it as breaking the alliance.”
I’m sure he’d be a great player if the godhead asked for his protection, but even here, numbers are numbers.
Once you start chasing in earnest, tracking is not difficult.
Except for Cain, the two of them thought that it was not a situation that one player could do anything about.
Rather, if it’s a problem, it’s the divinity.
Although they are said to be weak, God is God.
It is a somewhat uneasy opponent for high-ranking players who are sponsored by deities with a lot of coins and at the same time know their strength well.
Of course, I can only vaguely guess what the reward will be for defeating that much.
There could be people who go wild and attack the godhead on their own.
Cain warned of it in advance, and pointed it out clearly.
“Well, don’t worry about that. He didn’t even bring an idiot to disregard orders and attack the godhead.”
“I am also an alumnus of Lee Ha.”
Cain nodded and continued.
“Then, let’s deal with the player with the godhead first.”
The two nodded at Cain’s words.
It’s only been one day since the quest started.
Ji-hoon and his party were already targeted by the main players.
