I Killed the Heroine in the Game - I Killed the Heroine in the Game chapter 139

139 – 22: I tried to be an honest citizen again today.

“Holy sh*t.”

A person’s voice sounds as if he is chewing, and an acrid smell and dust fly through the air indoors.

What was left on the old wooden floor was pitch-black ash that looked like something had burned down, and a human shoe lying on the floor along with the ash.

No, it wasn’t just simple shoes lying there. Inside the shoe is a human ankle with an eerily clean cut surface.

The man who looked at that – No, humans have strange ways. He put on his mask, commonly known as the lotus leaf mask, and let out a deep sigh.

“Wasn’t even a billion-dollar casting useless?”

The person wearing a long gray T-shirt and a black jumper sighed heavily and put the strangely shaped doll lying on the desk, along with the shoes that only left ankles, into a garbage bag.

A doll that has burned down and you can’t tell anything about it other than that it was originally a doll is an amulet doll. It is a doll that protects its owner by passing the curse that is passed on to the doll.

The grade is B, and it is difficult for even the chairman of a famous large company to have an amulet doll that is this expensive and has guaranteed performance.

The price is not the problem; there are literally not many items.

An amulet doll of this size was something the masked man, who had been living in the back world for quite some time, had never seen before, but he could not overcome this curse.

This proved that this curse that is currently burning people is at least a grade A curse.

I don’t know if it’s an evil spirit or a curse left behind by some crazy person, but I don’t know, but it’s really – annoying.

“Tch. “There aren’t many left.”

The masked person clicked his tongue and muttered.

Inside, where the windows are covered with blackout curtains, there is a large server device. An interior where the only sound you can hear is the sound of machines running in a place where lines are dizzyingly hanging down on the wooden floor.

In a chilly room with the air conditioner turned on, the person rubbed his face over the mask.

Then I saw that the mask was distorted by the touch, just like human skin. The identity of the being, whose gender and appearance were unknown, was even more unknown.

A strange man full of strangeness and incomprehensibility. People call this being the vault keeper.

Those who belong to the underworld often have false origins and names, and most of them are insane and cannot be trusted.

Even in that back world, if you were to name the strangest – or more accurately, crazy – being, it would be the one here. I would choose a safekeeper.

In the world of money and blood, calculating profits and losses, deceiving, and killing are commonplaces, but it is certainly strange that he is the only person here who maintains the trust of everyone. No, it’s impossible.

Nevertheless, the safekeeper did it.

Collect information and relay transactions. He stood among the fierce and made a clear deal.

Credit rather than money and gain. We protect our customers’ money by maintaining silence and confidentiality at all times.

You can obtain information and money by relaying the dirty transactions that occur in the back world, so the vault keeper does not use it.

A madman who maintained that for almost 20 years. The purpose is not to maintain society or anything like that, but simply because I want to.

Ever since it first appeared in the early 2000s. In the backworld, the vault keeper has maintained his existence and credibility.

There were rumors that the vault keeper had an immortal skill like Plum Blossom, or that he had an immortal skill that would not kill him even if he was killed.

The facts are different. The person who appeared after opening the old sliding door revealed the truth about the existence of the safekeeper.

“Lotus leaf mask. Now there are less than 10 people left. “If it decreases further than this, it will be difficult to manage the safes.”

“Damn… …. “It’s still annoying that Kital died.”

From clothes to speech and voice. Two people with exactly the same body shape. The only difference is whether the mask worn is a nobleman’s mask or a lotus leaf mask.

There is only one secret that the safekeeper has kept until now. There is not just one safekeeper, but many.

The vault keepers have the same height, voice, and even spiritual power. The characteristics of spiritual power, like fingerprints, vary from person to person, but it makes no sense to say they are the same. Yes, usually.

“If things continue like this, we won’t be able to last long.”

As I said that, I slightly took off my lotus leaf mask, which stretched out like leather. There was no skin underneath the mask. There is no nose or lips, and bright red muscles are twitching.

It looks ugly and disgusting, but this was the minimum device to protect them.

In order to become a safekeeper, he peels off his facial muscles and even throws away his name, eliminating ‘himself’ and wearing the name ‘safekeeper’ along with a mask.

A person’s face and name are the most basic and important things that magically define oneself, but the appearance and sense of unity gained by abandoning them can serve as a prohibition and provide various benefits.

This is a spell that has historically been recorded, but of course it is a spell used to raise assassins or to make dolls that can be used for dangerous tasks. It is a magic that is easily referred to as a gold magic.

The safekeepers do not know what they have gained by using these gold techniques to cover themselves.

However, the vault keeper had no intention of fighting or increasing power in the first place. They were always safe keepers of information and wealth.

Thanks to such madness that cannot be understood by common sense, they have maintained the title of safekeeper in the back world for 20 years –

Is that over now? The safekeeper faced an unprecedented crisis. The cause was a spontaneous combustion phenomenon that started several weeks ago.

Right now, not only the safekeeper but all the people involved in this work are burning away and disappearing.

No matter how powerful the casting is prepared, no matter how famous the non-radiant master is, it is a powerful curse that leaves behind only a few body fragments and pitch-black ash.

Because he was the vault keeper who encountered the curse the most, he already had countless preparations against the curse.

In the past, many vault keepers died because they were wrongly involved in a single request. In the end, I was able to stop it. They were able to handle it with their own strength. But this curse was different.

“Sheesh. Is the bounty on the strongest a trigger? There are only 10 of us left now.

How many humans are left involved in this? Even the rich presidents added money as if they were hoping for good luck in the new year. Some members of the National Assembly would have also added it. “How long can I last?”

“I can’t hold out for long.”

Yeonpap Tal mutters as if sighing at what Yangban Tal said.

In fact, most of the people involved died due to this curse, and there are several whose names are known.

They all wander around looking for a fetish or a shaman to find someone who can save them, but even a billion dollar fetish doesn’t work.

Shamans die from being struck by dongti while carrying out an exorcism ritual, and casting fetishes is of no use.

Because the number of victims was so extensive, I couldn’t figure out where the curse came from in the beginning, but it took less than a week for me to discover the trigger for the curse.

Why did this curse suddenly begin after being quiet until now, and what is the next step now that the Academy has sensed this situation and is showing signs of action?

As they deal with money and information, of course they are investigating-

As long as the safekeeper who most closely inspected the ‘safe’ found nothing, I don’t think anything will be possible in the future, even at the Academy.

“If this continues, the world behind us will be completely destroyed. No, should I say that it is already collapsing? “It’s not good.”

“If the plum tree moves directly, we will be finished anyway. “The end is not far away.”

“Then we should erase as much information as possible and then die.”

“That’s right.”

It is not important to the vault keeper whether the back world is a necessary evil or causes confusion.

There are a lot of requests to save people’s lives, but since there is no one actually accepting the requests, there is nothing they can do.

The important thing is to swallow the information used in the transaction and return the safe entrusted by the customer to the original owners. The last thing a safe keeper should do is.

I am not saying this out of duty or responsibility. To them, it’s natural to do that, so they can’t think about anything else.

They were thinking about such things and thinking about their future plans. There was a sound on Seonbi Tal’s cell phone indicating that a message had arrived.

Seonbi Tal remained silent after seeing the message that arrived on his work cell phone, then opened his mouth while tapping on the laptop right next to him.

“I don’t think there’s any need to clean up the business right now. “A person who likes money smelled this incident.”

“Huh? It’s meaningless. “Grandma Ga-in, the most capable shaman, was burned to death, leaving behind only the dentures she was proud of. Who will take on this request?”

“Lee Jun, A-level exorcist.”

At the words of scholar Tal, Lotus Leaf Tal turned his head towards where scholar Tal was and fixed his gaze on the laptop that scholar Tal was tapping.

The fact that Lee Joon was getting work in this industry was a famous story.

A man who is not affiliated with the academy or the government and works as a freelancer, avoiding violations of the law and handling tasks in relatively gray areas.

However, the man’s abilities are clear and he was not seriously injured while handling the cursed fetish.

Although he is not deeply connected to the backworld due to his popularity and the fact that the divine spirit Wushin is by his side, he would be able to know about this situation.

Moreover, it cannot be denied that he is a person with a high possibility of resolving this matter.

The problem with the laptop that Seonbi Tal manipulated was that, among the many computers here, it was a device that managed requests that had special conditions attached to them.

“What are the terms of the transaction?”

“The condition is to deal directly with us. “It’s not like I sent you a request using the broker I usually work for.”

“Then there is no need to listen.”

The safekeeper is an intermediary, not an object of transaction. In addition, Lee Joon always took requests from brokers, so it was strange to suddenly find a safekeeper.

There is some purpose. The safekeeper has been threatened to the point where counting is meaningless.

It’s definitely annoying to have your life threatened. There is nothing more fearful than bringing blemish on the name of a safekeeper. They thought so and tried to operate the laptop, but-

Kwaang!!

“W-what?!”

Sudden explosion. Shake. Startled by a huge explosion that shook the building protected by several castings, Lotus Leaf Mask carefully pulled back the blackout curtains and looked outside.

Then what caught his eye was Lee Jun, who had piled up a mountain of dynamite and was turning the unlit dynamite in his hand with one hand.

“Hey- I didn’t set it off on purpose~ But come out and talk~ Or I’ll throw everything here into the building. Oh, it’s not a threat~”

“Am I crazy…? … ?”

You said that with that mountain of bombs next to you, it wasn’t a threat.

No matter where you look, doesn’t it look like they’ve given up on conversation? I understand if you came here to kill me, but I can’t understand why they piled up bombs like that.

The safekeeper was so dumbfounded that he couldn’t find anything to say for a moment.
