I Killed the Academy Player - I Killed the Academy Player chapter 100

sun – cloud solas(8)

Looking at the giant castle whose gate alone exceeds 30m, it is natural to be conscious of one existence.

“Are you a saint of giants?”

“I guess so.”

“Are you going to do something riddle again?”

“No way.”

Also, when it comes to riddles, everything is eliminated here. Not to mention Runia and Arisha, and Yuel doesn’t seem particularly interested in the mystery.

“You won’t be able to enter through the main gate. The red rowan berries are also a substitute for a pass.”

But we failed to get rowan berries. If that’s the case, you’ll have to give up entering through the main gate… but that doesn’t mean there’s no way.

“By the way, the walls… are too high.”

“Wow… I can see beyond 50m.”

The walls of the giant’s castle are as high as the huge gates. Even the maintenance is well done, so it seems difficult to find a dog hole.

The height of the wall is 50m. Maintenance condition is good.

The answer is coming.

“At least it’s not the sky giant’s castle.”

It seems that Runia thought the same as me. Arisha seems to have noticed from her sister’s words.

“Huh? Is that so? It’s a little… small for a sky giant’s castle, isn’t it?”

It was a large enough castle, but not a castle for a sky giant to live in.

“But Mr. Uskias said that there is a giant who guards the sun here.”

“I guess it means literally. There are giants, but you’re saying they’re not sky giants?”

“So what?”

“Well, if you knock on the gate, the answer will come.”

I approached the gate. We are not invited guests by nature, and we do not have rowan berries, which are important key cards. Even so…

“Come here, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

From noble mtl dot com

A booming voice. By human standards, it could be called a scream, but by their standards, it must be a little loud.

Did you know that seagulls are just beach chickens?

Yeah, guys.

-Hey hey hey…!

As if my shouting had reached them, the castle gate creaked and started to move.

“Co, Mr. Corinne?”

“Don’t be scared, we’re the ‘legitimate’ guests.”

“What are you thinking?”

“It’s all about improvisation from here on out anyway. The one who pecks loses.”

I don’t know the narrative here. An unknown area that has not been experienced in previous episodes or games.

Events and locations outside the player’s perception. Inevitably, we have no choice but to leave it to the occasional improvisation. And… Improvisation in the field is my specialty.

“What kind of guys are they?”

It was a booming voice. But it’s not the earth-shaking echo we all imagined.

Soon the owner of the voice appeared, followed by dozens of people striding forward.

“uh?”

“Giant?”

A rare scene where giants taller than 5m are crowded together. Each one of them is a mid-boss level object of level 1 or higher.

“Corin… are you really going to fight?”

“It can’t be. I’m not ignorant enough to face dozens of giants head-to-head.”

Force is not a means. At least until the solar eclipse two days later.

“Human? Human!”

“Ohhh, four humans. They look so soft.”

“Jjigae! Today is human stew!”

The giants who surround us with threatening sounds. One of the characteristics of giants. eat anything ‘Human’ too.

Cannibalism was the worst characteristic of giants, and it is one of the reasons why giants are still classified as demons by mankind.

“Uh, uhh… Corrin-san?!”

“Don’t worry. We have UL!”

“Yes? Me?”

Don’t I have a means to stop dozens of giants? It is a look that

“Wait! We have been sent by Sharvan, the sky giant, and Uskias, the sage of Pindias!”

“???”

It is felt. Why is this human suddenly like this? The gaze of the people called.

“Sharban? Uskias?”

Hearing my words, the giant who appeared to be the captain stopped. As expected… Pindias and Sky Island Pindias are not only related, but also exchanged.

“Yes that’s right!”

“Tell me more, human.”

Alright, here’s a good answer.

Why did Uskias choose red rowan berries as his task?

toll or token. Without it, we cannot rightfully obtain the sun.

We currently have two advantages.

First, thanks to the golden mandragora fertilizer, he arrived ‘before’ Skys.

Second, while performing the task, there is prior information about the red fruits of Uskias, Sharban, and Rowan.

If you use these advantages…

“We are the great heroes! Dun Skies sent the advance party first!”

“Mr. Corinne?”

sell drugs

“Dun Skys? Who is that?”

“Four! Our lord, the hero who did all this! He will come with magical rowan berries!”

If it is these giants who protect the sun, there is no way that there will be no exchanges with Pindias.

They cannot ignore the names of Uskias and Sharvan.

“Captain! Then, are you Sharvan or Uskias’ guest?”

“Hmm…”

Red rowan berries. Uskias. Sharban.

These are all names known to the residents of Pindias, the sky island. now it’s a decision

“Here is the Druid Yuel, who came instead of Uskias!”

“Eh? Corinne?”

“Hmm… If you look closely, there’s a druid. But this little girl came in the place of the sage?”

“Yes! Yuel-sama is the guardian of Pindias who will succeed Uskias-sama! He is suffering from a serious illness, so now Yuel-sama is his full power!”

of course it’s fake However, there is a secret technique that will make this lie more credible.

“Yuel-nim! Show me your power!”

“Uh, yes? Yes yes…!”

Did you know that seagulls are just beach chickens?

Yuel, who was riding on my chain of drug dealers, countered with an ad lib.

ᚄ (years)

ᚘ (Lee Pin)

ᚒ (ur)

ᚆ (uhh)

ᚎ (straf)

The form of a giant summoned by raking tree branches. No, a wooden doll with a height of 14m, taller than giants.

Wicker Man.

Druid’s thousand-year-old robe inherited only by the wise men of the forest.

Wicker Man, summoned with pure magical power without offerings, would not last for even a few tens of seconds, but just showing it would be enough.

Being able to raise a Wickerman, which is inherited only by a very small number of druids, is in line with being a sage of the forest.

“Hmm… You really are a sage of the forest.”

The giants who couldn’t come out of the island would have communicated only through Pindias on the ground.

All they know is the sky giant’s name and the druids they’ve been interacting with.

Hey. do you know that snakes are bald?

Now, everything is plausibly put together. that my lies are the truth

“Okay, I’ll take you guys as guests. But, the red berries of the rowan tree…”

“I know. I heard that Wise Giants can hold the sun if you hand it over to Uskias the Wise!”

“…you cannot take the sun unless you bring fruit.”

“Sure! He’ll be up soon! He says it’s polite to announce his visit to the great giants!”

“Hmm… that’s right.”

It’s a sight I like very much when I oil my mouth. We were greeted by giants and proudly entered the castle.

“How is it? It’s so easy, right?”

“·······.”

“·······.”

Three mischievous eyes turned to me. Either that or not.

Did you know that turtles can’t do push-ups? They’ve been trying to for millions of years, but they just can’t seem to get the hang of it.

Guided by giants, we arrived at a giant-sized living room. They proudly declared in front of the milk and pork they served.

“Okay, let’s get dirty now.”

“What, what?”

“Treasury of giants.”

* * * *

It’s a little hard to say this, but in the previous episode, stealing was like life.

This is because the player, Sihoo Park, had an all-purpose cheat called Inventory.

Are there any treasures? When I sneaked it into the inventory, no one could find it.

As a result, when I saw something expensive, I secretly put it in my inventory and kept my mouth shut.

······I also participated.

In the game, I couldn’t take it because of the economic balance or the simple background, but in reality, I just need to take care of it, right?

When everyone clears the campaign and sees a pile of grandiose treasures, ‘Wow, even if I go with just one of those things, my game life will be in full bloom.’ I wanted to

As a result, once I went to a boss stage or area, I first looked for a barn or treasure chest.

late night It’s been 30 minutes since Runia and Yuel waited in case, and went out to find the treasure chest with Arisha.

We stood in front of a huge hall that must be a treasure trove.

“Mr. Corinne… Why are you looking for me so well?”

“Everyone has experience.”

“In the first giant’s castle… to find a treasure chest in an instant… a skill that has been tried once or twice…”

“No, wait. Are you doubting me? Are my, my hands clean?”

in this round.

“Come to think of it, Mr. Corinne, Immortan Locke… are you a member of the Mandragora bandits…?”

Arisha’s gaze is cold. No, aren’t the original warehouses and treasure chests all located there?

Shake it off a few times and you’ll get the hang of it!

“Because it’s not important… let’s find the sun first.”

“Yeah… By the way, nobody’s there.”

“I know.”

It’s good to have found the location of the treasure house, but there is no giant guarding it. what? Aren’t there even minimal expenses?

Putting aside my doubts, the word “the treasure chest I entered” was huge was not appropriate.

I saw it in a fantasy movie before…

The lost home of the dwarves. A dragon’s nest where gold and silver treasures are piled up like a mountain.

The giants’ treasure house was so huge and grand that it reminded me of a scene in a movie at the time.

“Can we find the sun in a place like this?”

“It’s in the form of a sword, so somehow… ah.”

Among the treasures piled up in the treasury were numerous swords. There are over 100 bags that are visible right now.

“······It’s too small for giants to use.”

“Besides, they are studded with jewels and have no practicality.”

The treasures accumulated in the treasury are literally a mountain. There are so many that I don’t even know which ones are valuable.

In particular, a grotesquely rich space where egg-shaped gold rolls around like garbage.

Even if I came with Park Ga-nom, I couldn’t take even one thousandth of it because of the inventory weight limit.

“I was puzzled because there was no security at all, but this makes sense.”

Is it impossible to just pick up the sun and take it out of this huge pile of gold anyway? Acquisition disguised as a coincidence like in the movie is not possible.

“I can’t go and ask myself…”

That’s how I was looking for Clausolas.

-please! Tightly!

Hey. do you know that snakes are bald?

Not befitting the treasure house, a certain chicken was wandering around.

“chicken?”

“Do you have a Angejang?”

“It’s a little… small for giants to eat.”

A piece of chicken that doesn’t fit in a space where treasures are scattered like garbage. I can’t figure out what it means

Ignore the chicken and continue the search. how much time has passed On the way back to the entrance, thinking that it will not work.

-thud! thud! thud!

The sound of the giant’s footsteps can be heard from the entrance of the treasury.

“Sue, hide!”

“Uh, where?!”

Where to hide in a place full of treasures…!

“Follow me!”

“Eww?!”

I grabbed Arisha’s hand and dug through the treasure pile. He digs up a mountain of treasure and hides in it. Treasures rained down from above became a curtain that covered us.

“·······.”

“·······.”

A tiny crack in the pile of treasures we hide. Our pupils naturally turned to the gap where we could see the outside…

– Cuckoo?

One of the chickens I saw earlier was staring this way, nodding its head.

‘That bastard…!

‘Shh! Corinne, be quiet!’

I wish I hadn’t cried seeing this side, if the giant had passed by… my wishes were trampled by the sound of approaching footsteps.

“Oh~ my sweet baby. You’re here.”

After stepping on a pile of treasure, a 7m tall giant reaches for a chicken. At the same time, the giant’s eye level became equal to ours.

-gulp!

Even the sound of swallowing is as loud as lightning strikes. Fortunately, the giant didn’t notice this.

“Hehehe, our cutie.”

A giant petting a chicken in his hand like a pet. It was then.

– Pong!

Eggs on the giant’s big palm! A chicken that gives birth. What was surprising was not the site of the birth, but the eggs it laid.

‘what······.’

A golden egg that shines so brightly that it deserves the word ‘shiny’. Yes. That chicken was a chicken that laid golden eggs!

‘It’s not even a goose…’

‘What do you mean?’

‘Oh, no… it’s nothing.’

‘It’s a chicken that lays golden eggs… Could it be that the gold in this treasury is?’

‘Isn’t that guy cheap?’

‘It’s cheap… the expression is rather cheap.’

Even if you steal just one of them, you’ll be terrified for the rest of your life.

‘Would you like to steal it?’

‘Calm down. What if she even cries?’

‘······okay.’

Leaving behind his regretful heart, the giant with the chicken walked away.

“Whoa…”

“I almost got into trouble.”

Arisha’s sigh of relief touches her lips. Perhaps it was the same with Arisha, Arisha raised her head and our eyes met.

The strange situation buried in the pile of treasure somehow reminds me of that night.

“Brother-in-law… I don’t have a sister right now.”

under the moonlight. The girl who laid me down on the floor and looked down at me with magical blue eyes.

The intenseness that you can’t feel from the usual Arisha… and the enchanting gaze that licked it sticky.

The memory of that night… Why did I come back to it now?

“Ah, Arisha.”

“Why, why are you like that?”

“When you first came here, what illusion did you see?”

“?!!”

In the dark treasure heap. A faint red light appeared on Arisha’s cheeks.

“Go, suddenly?”

“No… just. I’m curious.”

“No, I won’t talk.”

“No, why? Well, even if it’s embarrassing…”

“Anyway, I won’t. Corinne-san won’t do that either.”

“Well, if that’s the case…”

From noble mtl dot com

silence for a while. Arisha was the one who broke the silence as a sweet scent came up, probably from sweat.

“Hey, Corinne.”

“······why?”

“Sister, what do you think?”

“Mr. Lunia? What… He’s a great person. I like him too.”

Luna is an upright person. I realized it while fighting together in the previous episode. Just by looking at her love-hate relationship with Arisha, you can tell how upright she is.

“Crush······.”

“He’s a good person. He’s talented, he’s good, he’s pretty. All men would be like that, right?”

“is that so.”

For some reason, Arisha was drooping. When unni praises me, why does the guy I liked secretly suddenly do this?

“······I see.”

Without even knowing the meaning of that low muttering, we soon made our way out of the treasure pile.

·········

······

…

I ran into some giants while walking around the round moonlit castle, but I was told it was a walk.

There is no vigilance in the eyes of the giants. As if no matter what we do, it’s useless.

“The day after tomorrow is a solar eclipse, isn’t it a big deal?

“······I know.”

“I heard that a solar eclipse lasts in two hours? If you find it at the right time…”

“Skys will already follow the due process and take over the sun.”

At that moment, it was impossible to attack. Skies may not know it, but we are under the constraints of Gias.

In order to rule out the greatest threat of Dumnorix’ participation in the war, it was not possible to directly slash the back of the head, even if it was because of Gungeas.

“Huh… Let’s organize our thoughts. Uskias said that to get Claus Solas, it can only be taken through a solar eclipse. Why?”

“Didn’t you say the sun’s power is weakening?”

“Yes, even if it’s not as much as the real sun, it’s impossible to even reach it because it has the power of the sun.”

“So, is it because eclipses… are magical times when the power of the sun weakens?”

“Similar to Nazrea.”

On Earth, it would be a simple astronomical phenomenon, but in this world, solar and lunar eclipses cause special magical phenomena.

“But this also requires the Claus Solas to be fully sunlit.”

“According to that premise, the treasure house that is blocked from light is… ah.”

Arisha recalled that the vault’s ceiling had been punctured.

“Then can I see you if I go during the day?”

“······It might be.”

Something… something is strange.

Why is the treasure house neglected so poorly?

Because they’ve been living there for a long time to protect the sun, and they’re becoming a nuisance?

no. You shouldn’t have such opportunistic thoughts.

“Giants don’t have to guard the treasury?”

“·······.”

Let’s make that assumption. A few locations where the sun is hidden come to mind. On the roof of the castle? No, it looks too good.

The square in the castle where the giants live? Isn’t that too close? It is a treasure with strong yang energy that requires waiting for a solar eclipse, but it is unlikely that it was placed close to life.

“If there is even a small clue…”

get nervous There is an extreme method, but it should be postponed until the very end.

So now I have to go back to my room and think carefully…

“Mr. Corinne. There’s nothing to say about clues…”

“huh?”

At Arisha’s words, I raised my head. Arisha’s face, bathed in moonlight, is shining brightly.

“What? Did you find any clues?”

“······Actually, it’s been bothering me since before.”

Arisha brought her face closer and whispered carefully.

────

crazy.

Why do flamingos stand on one leg? They’d fall over if they lifted both.

Knees for sure! It was a seven-law grave.

A place where you can always soak up sunlight during the day and never reach it at night.

Even so, on the day of the eclipse, the power inevitably weakens.

There is such a place.

But if it’s really there…

“Today is the day when the waxing moon should rise.”

A being above the clouds that shows off the shape of a ‘full moon’.

A place that can’t be reached in the first place unless you are a legitimate visitor.

Clausolas, the ‘sun’, floated above the Sky Island disguised as the ‘moon’.
