I Can See Your Code - I Can See Your Code chapter 171

I see your code (171)

Losing reason doesn’t mean losing nature.

Parasite looked around quietly instead of rushing at my provocation like before. Now you know that the situation is not in your favor.

Maybe it’s because he noticed that the duration of the buff skill isn’t long and he’s thinking about it.

But in fact, time was on our side.

This one has improved his abilities with the divine power of the priests, while that guy is sacrificing his own lifespan to raise his own power. Even now, life is dying out in real time.

Besides, if you hold out just a little longer, the first-class paladin, who is the best in the Kitan Church, will arrive.

Parasite had no way of telling the truth, but they probably had the knowledge that it is not good to stay long in the enemy’s base.

In short, it is said that in the end it is the other side that you have to jump in.

“… … Kick.”

Realizing that fact, the guy also smiled a bit relaxedly. Yes, even though it was just a fabrication.

He wants me to misunderstand him and attack him first. The fact that the defending side is more advantageous is because it is close to the truth regardless of East and West.

I smiled and put the knife over my shoulder.

“The guy who ran to him even though he didn’t come a while ago has not come for a long time now. Well, it’s been like that for the rest of my life. I have a lot of time anyway.”

“… … .”

Parasite’s expression hardened in an instant. He looked at me with cold eyes, as if the corners of his mouth, which had been torn to his ears, were a lie. and.

“friend… … russia… … ji… … .”

With a stuttering tone, the guy opened his mouth.

“Why only you… … Why am I… … .”

“… … .”

Haven’t your consciousnesses been devoured yet?

This is also an unexpected situation. Usually, after the erosion has reached that level, the host’s mind does not remain.

In fact, I thought he was already dead… … Parasite has been sealed for a long time, so has its ability weakened?

Anyway, I understand a little now why he’s trying to spend his lifespan.

Parasite may have a left behind, but he must have had no future.

He must have thought that he would have been better off dead because the Khitan Headquarters had done such a thing. The Heretic Inquisitor’s methods of torture are well known.

I just, silently, straightened my sword again and prepared for an attack. Because it didn’t seem like a conversation with him would be nutritious.

When he saw me like that, he screamed loudly and ran towards me.

“Wooing!”

Kuah!

The pressure is much stronger than before, to see if you are pulling more life than before. But it’s actually easier to hold on to.

Also thanks to Arina’s buff.

This is enough… … Isn’t it almost twice as strong as the original?

In my current state, I could easily deal with Francis, who I thought was superior to me.

“dwelling! Pick it up!”

Of course, that doesn’t mean I’m superior to him.

Now, Parasite had far surpassed Francis at that time with pure strength without any weakening ability.

But my goal is not to win. It’s time consuming. It’s okay if you don’t support it.

“Hurry up, Jugran Marie!”

how long has it been

Francis and Turlion, whose neck had been cut in half, returned with his severed arm attached. And an unknown second-class paladin. Everyone fell back from the fight.

It wasn’t that he ran away, it was because he thought that being around him would be more of a hindrance. That’s because the level of me and him has risen a lot.

Thanks to this, I remained alone and continued to counter his attacks. Inwardly, I keep counting the time.

3 minutes when a fist rubs against his side.

4 minutes when the kick breaks one leg.

It took 5 minutes to completely restore them both.

It was only then that I realized that something was strange.

“… … .”

The first-class Paladin Duke, who should have arrived sooner, had yet to show any signs of arriving.

* * *

“… … Is Sir Duke still there?”

“That is… … .”

“Don’t hesitate, answer me quickly. Do we have time to waste now?”

The bishop, who returned after reporting the situation outside at the Pope’s urging, answered with his eyes closed.

“It seems unreasonable to come right now.”

“Why?”

“… … It seems that he has broken all the seals of other beings that were in the ban. If Sir Duke falls out, he’ll be pushed back at any moment… … .”

The pope drooled at those words.

Have you been vigilant because nothing has happened for hundreds of years? Perhaps the security was too lax.

“Then when do you think you will be able to clean up and come back?”

“Maybe it will take another 30 minutes… … .”

“It must be after we are all dead.”

“… … So, I have one suggestion for you.”

When the bishop opened his mouth cautiously, the pope looked back at him and inquired.

“What is it?”

“… … For now, the Pope, the Cardinals, and the Archbishops, how about taking a break with Sir Duke for a while?”

“You’re only telling the core to run away.”

The pope grinned as if he had heard a funny sound. Then, staring at the president again, he pointed his finger in the middle.

“I’m not going to blame you for saying that. It is the most sensible decision you can make under the current circumstances. However, while people who are not members of the Church are fighting for their lives like that, how can those who are called leaders escape by saying that they will live?”

With those words, the bishop looked at the young man who was fighting with the disaster.

It is said that it was named after the capital of the destroyed empire, ‘supernova of ruined kingdom’. In such a ruined city, he is said to be a saint who fed the poor and saved himself as a ‘Saint of Layton.’ Finally, even the title of ‘Holy Knight’, which was obtained by directly helping the divine mission.

Despite the personal help they received from their denomination, they are young people with a bright future ahead of them to die in a place like this.

The bishop knew it too. If he could die for him, he would do it over and over again.

However, if the world could solve all problems with willpower alone, trouble would not have arisen in the first place.

The bishop made up his mind and carefully advised again.

“… … I’m sorry for that, but wouldn’t it be possible to rebuild the denomination once the leadership survives?”

“You are very mistaken about something.”

“What are you talking about… … ?”

In response to the bishop’s question, the pope resolutely answered.

“If I, the cardinals, and the archbishops all die, the Order will survive. What matters is not who is above, but what spirit the group upholds.”

“… … It’s too close to ideal… … .”

“What if it is close to the ideal? That religion was originally a study that followed such an ideal. And it can be said that the knight Rian who is fighting over there is the best fit for Kitan’s spirit.”

“… … .”

The bishop was silent.

It was not completely assimilated to the Pope.

It was to some extent convincing, but it was because he thought that the leadership should not be treated as if it were nothing.

Because I saw that the spirit of the group was not consistent, but could change depending on the inclination of the person who led it.

But at the same time, the bishop also realized that he could no longer change the pope’s mind, no matter how persuasive he was.

In the end, what he shut his mouth was closer to giving up than to accepting.

The pope laughed at the bishop like that.

He was deeply thoughtful and had been predicting the next archbishop candidate.

If you look at the subject of evacuation, except for the bishop level, he must have been prepared to take his own life here.

I don’t think I understand it yet, but thanks to knowing that, I can leave it to you with confidence.

The Pope, who had made up his mind, said in a calm voice.

“It’s all over. Please make arrangements so that everyone can retreat, leaving only me.”

“Pope, what are you going to do by staying alone? … no way… … !”

The bishop who asked the question widened his eyes as if he had realized something.

“That’s right.”

The pope didn’t look at him, he just nodded once and said.

“Let me use the sacrificial spell.”

* * *

Seeing that Duke hasn’t come yet, it seems like something happened. According to his personality in the game, he wasn’t a cowardly great man who would run away just because he was scared.

The cause was unknown, but the result was clear.

It’s just that I have to kill him by myself.

This is because, unlike before, time has changed on that guy’s side.

The duration of the buff Arina gave is 10 minutes. There are only five more minutes left.

Judging from the circumstances, it didn’t look like Duke would come before that.

In the next 5 minutes, it means that there is only one thing left for me to do.

We need to deal with this before he notices… … .

That was when I was clenching my teeth.

“Holy knight.”

Suddenly, a voice came from behind. It was late to realize that it was an unfamiliar name, but it must have been a title calling me.

I answered my opponent while keeping my gaze fixed on the parasite.

“What are you doing?”

“Thank you so much for your hard work for us. One, stop evacuating now.”

… … What else does this mean?

“Just because I ran away, he wouldn’t just let me go.”

“There is a workaround for that. So come on… … .”

“What is the solution?”

To be honest, I had a guess. Because it was one of the options I was thinking of just a while ago.

Unsurprisingly, soon after, a muffled voice spoke from behind.

“The Pope has decided to use the sacrificial spell. Then you’ll be able to seal him up for about 30 minutes… … .”

“Tell me that it is.”

I decided to cut off the conversation as I didn’t think I needed to hear any more.

at the back… … There was silence for a moment, probably because the person who was supposed to be the bishop was bewildered. Then he opened his mouth in a hurry.

“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but your chance is now! Otherwise, everyone, including the knights, will die together!”

“it’s okay.”

I said firmly again.

“Because there is only one thing that will die more today.”

“… … .”

This time, there was no reply for a long time. There was only a hint of hesitation, as if he was somehow moved, through his skin.

Why are you doing that?

I wanted to look back and check, but I couldn’t afford it. Because it seemed like the parasite was going to run right away.

In the end, he ignores it and tries to focus on the battle again. The bishop spoke first.

“… … thank you Your sacrifice on behalf of the Pope will never be forgotten.”

… … what? whose sacrifice?

I don’t know who wants to kill people. Am I just indirectly expressing that I’m going to kill him?

But before I could explain that, I could hear the sound of creaking footsteps. The bishop had already left his seat so as not to interfere with the fight.

“… … .”

Well, it doesn’t matter. Because not much has changed anyway.

If the Pope uses the sacrificial spell, the immediate situation may be rectified, but my purpose will not be achieved.

Because the only one who could connect Kitan and me directly was the Pope.

For some reason, I have been suffering like this since the elf village. Wasn’t it all just to have a face-to-face conversation with him?

I don’t know if it’s really unavoidable, but it wasn’t to the point where I wasn’t making that choice yet.

I still had one more option left. The only gambler who can beat him.
