I Can See the Comments on the Doomed Novel - Chapter 124

124 – Contractors

Even if you are a god, there is no benefit from recommending players to the system.

In other words, the godhead has to find each player he will see.

Of course, finding great or interesting players requires a level of effort like finding a needle in the sand.

Due to extinction, it will eventually fall below 0.1% Of the total population.

Even so, it is by no means a small number.

So, whether or not the Goddess can meet a competent player is in fact dependent on luck.

There are also cases where a lucky deity finds a good player from the beginning, watches it until the end, then sponsors and contracts without problems.

On the other hand, if you’re unlucky, there’s a chance you won’t see a player you like until the end.

Before the contract issue, it’s not fun to watch.

Even if it’s a godhead, it’s still a person.

It’s different for each individual, but it’s more fun and enjoyable to watch when the player you’re rooting for fights and plays well.

Well, that’s basically what it means.

There are also cases where players who work hard to the end are good even if they are weak.

On the contrary, it seems that there is also a deity with a perverted taste who enjoys watching weak players suffer.

Anyway, meeting a good player means that it ultimately depends on the god’s luck and skill.

In that sense, Eve could be said to be on the lucky side.

“Hmm, Lee Ji-hoon.”

The place is Korea.

Eve took a rough look at the profile of the man who had ‘accidentally’ entered in front of her eyes.

“My life up until now was very ordinary. It’s not like he’s a former special agent, and he doesn’t seem to have any great bloodlines among his ancestors. Aren’t you an insignificant player except for your face?”

The perishing system gives players characteristics and jobs.

The new power allows you to overcome the barriers of age and race.

It is theoretically not impossible for a 5-year-old girl to have enough strength to topple a building.

In principle, a world where any human can survive if they have luck and skill.

That doesn’t mean that previous lives aren’t important.

This is because the characteristics and jobs given in the first place reflect the player’s characteristics and previous life.

For example, if the player’s life was related to the church, there is a good chance that a rare job such as a saint will appear.

In this case, there are cases where the church-saint-angel are connected and a contract is made with a good deity.

Well, in the end, it would depend on individual performance.

In addition to that, physical conditions, experience, and knowledge also affect survival.

Anyway, ex-soldiers are more likely to live than ordinary students.

In that sense, the player named ‘Lee Ji-hoon’ didn’t seem very likely to survive.

‘……He is a person similar to me. It’s just a little bit.’

There are no special skills or special features.

It won’t make much of a difference if you pick a student holding a smartphone at school.

But it’s definitely different somewhere.

…Mainly in a bad way.

A classroom where everyone spends their youth vigorously.

A rose-colored space where you can laugh and chat and show off your friendship and youth.

There, Lee Ji-hoon gave off an atmosphere as if he was somewhere far away.

Or they don’t seem interested.

There must be no ‘meaning’ to this man.

I read web novels and enjoy them, but that’s all in the end.

The only thing left at the end is empty eyes.

Perhaps even if everyone around me suddenly died right now, I wouldn’t move.

Nevertheless, he was trying to maintain himself in a human way.

There is no specific reason for that.

I just do it because I think it’s right.

In a sense, they may be greater than those with convictions.

You may think of profit and loss, calculation, and evaluation in your head.

In the end, I will act in the way I believe is ‘right’.

How can there be such a contradiction in human beings?

It’s okay if everyone in this classroom gets eaten by zombies.

A person who would be genuinely angry if the ‘childhood friend’ next to him was hurt.

It made me feel a sense of identity because he was similar to me in that way.

I don’t know why I’m a god, and I don’t have any will.

He just lives day by day with the spirits and himself.

‘……He’s a mysterious person.’

It wasn’t strange that Eve, who was born with the ability to see through the essence of her opponent, thought that way looking at Ji-hoon.

Of course, he doesn’t have any more feelings than that.

At most, ‘A new novel appeared on the site today. I have nothing to do, so let’s take a look~’ level of interest.

The same goes for true fans.

Because now all I can do is cheer.

Even so, there is no godhead who wants the player he is watching to die in vain.

‘I want to live as long as possible.’

Unknowingly, Eve, who had such thoughts, munched on the cherry tomatoes the rabbits gave her.

I started looking at Ji-hoon, who was sitting on the other side of the screen with a bored expression.

****

“A pretty bloody greeting, isn’t it?”

“Excuse me. My name is Cain. As you know, she is the contractor of Apollo, one of the 12 gods of Olympus.”

The blond man who introduced himself as Cain said that and bowed his head.

He is holding a gorgeous golden bow.

It is not an ordinary weapon at first glance.

‘Is that also related to the deity of Apollo?’

Apollo is a god famous for archery.

There is even a legend about catching a giant snake with one bow.

For players who signed a contract with him, it would be natural for the bow to be the main weapon.

I only hit it once, but it was an arrow with considerable power.

I used the skill on a man named Cain as a test.

‘The Eye of Truth.’

[Use the skill ‘Eye of Truth’!]

[Check the opponent’s job and attribute information!]

Name: Cain

Occupation: Receiver of divine revelations

Attribute: Protection of the Sun God

Name: Protection of the Sun God

Description: A protection bestowed directly by the god of Olympus, ‘Apollo’. The power of archery increases, and it is possible to use the power of the flame of the sun. As your knowledge of music deepens, you will be able to perform to impress anyone. You can use Apollo’s Bow while the protection is maintained.

‘You’re pretty elite.’

The names of the jobs and characteristics are unusual.

A deceptive trait that allows you to do almost anything Apollo can do.

Besides, Cain isn’t the only enemy.

In the thicket, players with weapons walked out one by one.

Even if you can’t do it, it’s a number that can be dozens.

Among them was a Chinese woman named Xiao Mei whom I had seen the other day and her subordinate.

To persuade such a number in just one night, and to put it under oneself called cooperation.

It’s definitely a great skill.

I don’t think I can do the same thing even with Apollo’s protection.

It is safe to say that this is purely Cain’s ability.

The Cain took a step forward and opened her mouth.

“I’m not going to say anything about an ambush first, but…you don’t think you’ll surrender like this, right?”

“Are you saying that if you surrender, you will at least take care of it?”

“Of course. If you hand over the goddess next to you, we have nothing to do with you.”

At that, Eve jumped behind her.

As expected, what they are aiming for is Eve’s life.

It seems that there is no hesitation even after seeing that the opponent is a child.

Maybe that way of thinking is normal.

Eve is not a child, but as he said, she is definitely a goddess.

Of course, I have no intention of accepting that.

“Then the negotiations are intense. I have an appointment here too. I can’t just hand it over to this level of threat.”

“Are you going to fight this number? Just the two of you?”

“At most, they’re idiots who got scared and went under you. There is nothing to be afraid of.”

“Ha!”

Cain smiled.

It was not a mockery, but an expression of pure admiration.

“I don’t know if the bowl is big or if it’s greedy. It would be best if it could be resolved through dialogue. There is nothing you can do about it.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Cain drew her bowstring.

It was immediately after the surprise arrow was deflected.

It wasn’t difficult to prevent it if you were prepared in advance.

The problem is the attack that followed immediately after that.

At the same time as I deflected Cain’s arrow, a Chinese-style woman named Xiao Mei and a huge man one head taller than her jumped out.

Am I the most talented among them?

The two reached me in an instant and aimed at me at the same time.

I managed to dodge the spear that Shao Mei wielded.

However, I was beaten by a fist thrown by a huge man.

“Suck!”

-Quaang!

With a roar, the body was pushed back.

It was considerable strength befitting a large body.

“Sheesh, that hurts, son.”

Muttering that, I got up from my seat.

The opponent is overwhelming in terms of numbers.

Unfortunately, there is no time to lie down for a while.

However, those who attacked me seemed embarrassed.

“Hey Raynor. Didn’t you boast that you could win with just one shot?”

“The moment my fist touched it, that guy also kicked my stomach. Well, I don’t know what it would be like if it went in properly. There must be a reason Cain was wary. If a woman like you had attacked it alone, it would have been annihilated on the spot.”

“Chit! Then I will attack you next time.”

“As you like.”

From noble mtl dot com

Two people who seemed to be on bad terms looked at each other and growled.

Irrespective of whether the linkage is good or bad, the skills are definitely top-tier players.

‘Is that man’s name Raynor?’

From what they say, it seems that they didn’t know each other.

In the first place, the nationalities of the two are different.

If you look closely, the races and faces of the crowds are also quite different.

An organization created spontaneously, not originally.

Perhaps among them, the captains are people like Cain, Shaomai, and Raynor.

My opponent was an alliance created by merging the three organizations that were the main pillars of those three, no, the three organizations that they were leaders in the first place.

‘It’s annoying.’

I quickly grasped the situation by defeating the enemies who started attacking in earnest with a baseball bat one by one.

If you look at each one individually, it’s not a threat.

I wanted to be able to easily defeat Hye-na and Eun-byeol now.

But if the number is this big, the story is different.

In particular, the existence of Cain, who occasionally shoots arrows at gaps, is not intrusive.

First of all, the other side doesn’t attack easily as if they’re still trying to explore.

But that was only a matter of time.

I don’t know if they lead me to guerrilla warfare like Eunbyul said last time.

As expected, it is difficult to fight while defending with such numbers.

“Can you buy me a minute?”

It was Eve who suddenly said that.

She had a determined expression on her face.

“Is there any way?”

“If you stop those strong enemies, I will be able to do something with the help of Eunbyeol.”

The person who was taken aback by those words was Eunbyeol.

“Huh? Me too?”

“Eunbyeol unnie has already signed a contract with God, right?”

“That, how?”

Eunbyeol has not yet told Eve about her divinity.

Because both I and Eunbyeol regarded it as a kind of trump card.

But somehow, Eve seemed to already know that.

Well, even so, it doesn’t matter.

It looks like we can use that to overcome this situation.

“If you buy me a little time, I can break through the siege with my strength and the power of that godhead!”

“Okay then try it! If it’s time, I’ll earn enough to spare!”

I immediately nodded.

Frighteningly, a water curtain began to cover Eve and Eunbyeol.

“Chit!”

It seems that Cain, who is also a famous godhead contractor, felt something about that change.

As soon as the curtain rises, he draws the string of his bow.

But this time I was slightly faster.

[Use the skill ‘Pulpation Bullet’!]

Cain couldn’t avoid the blue lump of magic that flew away.

I think they prioritized targeting Eve, but that resulted in neither of them being able to do it right.

“Keuugh!”

A few people noticed and jumped at the curtain, but it was impossible to break through the barrier spread by Eve, the godhead, with their skills.

In the slight confusion, I ran up to the man named Raynor and slapped him in the side.

“This is the reward from earlier.”

“You bastard!”

The spear that Xiao-Mei swung immediately grazed his cheek.

While barely avoiding the attack.

The preparations for Eve and Eunbyeol were finished before I knew it.

‘…An angel?’

When the water barrier is over.

The one standing there was Eunbyeol, wearing a saint’s uniform, aiming a modern white sniper rifle that didn’t go well with that attire.

A golden angel’s ring is on top of its head, and white angel’s wings are spread behind its back.

Originally, the two eyes that should have been covered with a blindfold were shining mysteriously in blue.

[The powers of the godhead ‘Dream of the Night Like a Dream’ and the godhead ‘Angel of Aquarius’ resonate with mutual consent.]

Clear water floated around Eunbyeol as if it were surrounding it.

Unbelievable magic power overflowed from its body and gun barrel.

Now I can understand the destructive power of that armament.

As Eve asserted, it is a powerful enough weapon to overcome this situation.

The deity contracted by the saintess Eunbyeol.

His name is ‘Gabriel’.

An angel who is one of the three great angels and represents the attribute of water.

Eunbyeol, who temporarily received power from the two deities, pulled the trigger.
