I Was Summoned to the Duel Monster World - I Was Summoned to the Duel Monster World chapter 86

086

After the one-on-one duel with the War Demon Chief, I was guided to his hut as the winner.

Befitting a chieftain, his hut was much more spacious and cozy than those of the other ghosts.

“Master, I have taken out all the fire as you instructed.”

“Good job.”

All the demons surrendered to me because I had subdued the leader.

As expected from the fact that they were battle fanatics, the demons were monsters that followed the strong.

Anyway, all the war demons neatly swore obedience. There is no longer a need to cause chaos with fire.

“Human, there is something I want to ask you. “You won the duel, but why didn’t you take my head?”

“Because there is a mountain of information to dig up from you.”

“Are you going to kill me after you get all the information?”

“I will think about that after seeing the situation. “Don’t worry, I don’t plan on killing you right now.”

“It’s not because I’m particularly afraid of death. “It’s because it’s shameful that a warrior who lost in a life-or-death duel with another race is still alive.”

“If you want, I will kill you later. But…….”

I glared at the chief and gave him a firm warning.

“If you plan to ignore my rights as the winner and run away to death just because you lost in a duel, then you are not a warrior. It’s a little animal that got scared and ran away with its tail down. Okay?”

“…… “Keep that in mind.”

“Okay. Then I’ll start asking questions in earnest.”

I flopped down on a cushion made of dry straw.

The shock felt all the way from my hips to my waist due to the lack of cushioning, but I held it in and continued talking.

“That… “Then would you like to introduce yourself first?”

“This is Grand Master Gsundin. “Is your butt okay?”

“It’s okay, you don’t have to worry.”

He pretended like nothing was wrong, but it seemed to show in his facial expression.

Gsundin asked me how I was doing, and Finesse hugged me and made me sit on his lap.

Her knees were so soft that they could not be compared to cushions.

Her face became hot due to the finesse she liked just holding me like a doll.

I realized once again that I lack immunity to the opposite s*x.

I haven’t sat on someone’s lap since I was 5 years old, when my parents read me a story.

“Hmm… ! Why do you want to fight humans next?”

“A true warrior does not avoid a fight. “I just fight with all my might.”

“To put it conversely, if there is no intention to fight on the other side, you don’t touch it?”

“Yes.”

“Then why did they kill civilians who didn’t even know how to fight?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. We only accept fights against prepared warriors. The ideal we pursue is only strong strength and warrior honor. “Killing non-warriors is strictly prohibited as it is directly related to tarnishing one’s honor.”

“What… ?”

Sundin’s remarks gave her a strong blow to the head.

It was said that Lin’s father was definitely murdered by a ghost.

She personally confirmed the records that matched her remarks in the archives she visited afterwards.

‘But Rin’s father was an office worker, not a warrior…….’

A salaryman who rushes from place to place to feed his family.

There was a clear difference from Jeongwi’s image of a warrior.

Will the war spirits really ignite their fighting spirit upon seeing Rin’s father?

The conclusion I came to was ‘That’s not true.’

“Can you swear that there was not a single lie in what you just said?”

“I swear by my beliefs that I did not tell lies. Moreover, ex-demons whose reputation has been tarnished give off a unique odor. “But for the past 10 years, the only bad smell I’ve smelled is the smell of a hyena’s rotting corpse.”

“…… “It seems to be true.”

The man who spoke softly without blinking once completely erased any doubts she had.

To begin with, he wasn’t the type of person to deceive someone.

If all the things he showed me were just acting, things would be different.

The possibility of that happening was extremely low, so there was no need to even doubt it.

‘Then what was the death record saying that he was killed by a ghost?”

There were a total of three possibilities that could be considered.

The first possibility is that Lin mistook the person who killed her father for Jeon Gwi.

The second possibility is that Jeon Gwi actually killed her father and disappeared somewhere.

And the third…… The dark side I’m looking for manipulated the entire incident.

“Is there anything that comes to mind?”

“I have a strong suspicion, but I don’t have any physical evidence, so I can’t easily come to a conclusion. “But there is one thing I am sure of.”

“What is that?”

“Humans never had to fight against demons. Because these are guys who don’t fight anyone except the strong. “Yet the Academy is in a hostile relationship with the former.”

“It means that someone is intentionally leading you to fight against the demons.”

“That’s correct.”

There is a high possibility that he is a shadowy figure. Because he wants the destruction of mankind.

“Then what are you going to do?”

“First of all, we must ensure that unnecessary sacrifices do not occur. In that sense, in the future, if Princess Frontline challenges you to fight, don’t fight back and just walk away.”

“We avoid the fight we fought first…” ….”

“You loser… retort?”

“…… I get it.”

When I glared at him with wide-open eyes, he reluctantly nodded.

With this, one risk factor has been ruled out.

Next was Alterghost’s turn…….

“Should we just go back to the academy?”

“What about Alter Ghost?”

“Next time… ….”

“Shouldn’t we pull out the ox horn as soon as possible?”

Alter Ghost, which only has a female form.

Even though it seemed like a dream world where men and women were reversed, the reality was filled with abnormal s*xual desires.

To briefly explain the appearance of Alter Ghost, it looks like a mixture of a machine and a divine beast.

I would have accepted it if they had added the characteristics of other species based on humans like Finesse, but there is nothing like that in AlterGhost.

“Don’t worry. “Like this time, while Artea and I get the attention of the Alterghosts, you can take care of the boss and that’s it!”

“What if I lose?”

“In that case, at least I will follow my master and die together so that you don’t feel lonely!”

Save me… !

***

Spend the night at the hut and the next morning.

I wandered around the wilderness until the sun rose in the sky, but in the end I was unable to find Alterghost’s base.

Perhaps because of the special gimmick placed on her base, Finesse’s excellent detection ability did not shine.

“I’m really sorry I couldn’t help you… ….”

“It’s okay. “There are days like that, too.”

“It’s almost to the point where I wonder if Alter Ghost exists. “If there is a war, even the slightest trace must remain.”

“That’s right.”

There were traces of the battle left throughout the wilderness as a bloody three-way battle was going on.

From bullet holes to broken equipment, cold corpses, and shredded cards.

It was clear that a fierce power struggle had occurred.

My mind was so complicated that the corners of my mouth twisted at the devastation left behind by the war.

Still, their base was inferred from the dead bodies of the ghosts lying on the floor.

The colony could be found even in the dark of the night.

However, Alter Ghosts were completely different from former ghosts.

I looked everywhere to see if Alterghost’s body was being recovered by his own people, but I couldn’t find it.

Even though parts of the body may have remained during the recovery process, it was clean.

As a result, we faced difficulties in the search.

“We have no choice but to go back. “It would be a waste of time to wander around here any more.”

“I think it was a wise decision.”

“I will be at the forefront for vigilance, so please follow behind me.”

The journey ended with only disappointment at the end.

While returning to the academy across the wilderness, Finesse suddenly stopped.

Wondering what was going on, I looked over Finesse’s shoulder.

A girl standing tall in the middle of the wilderness was confronting Finesse.

It was blurry because of the sand and wind, but I immediately recognized that the girl’s attire was an academy uniform.

“Princess candidate?”

It’s a regular holiday at the Academy, so why is the princess candidate in the wilderness?

Just as I was curious, she pointed her gun in our direction.

It seems they mistook us for enemies, so I stepped forward to take action.

“This is Han Seo-yoon, the 46th operator of the Assault Academy! “We are not enemies, so please put away your weapons!”

“I know.”

“Uh… ?”

“Master!!”

Taang-!

Gunfire echoing in the wilderness.

I was pushed by Finesse and fell to the ground.

The pain of the collision was short-lived, and hot liquid was sprayed on my face.

As a very small amount of liquid entered my mouth, a fishy taste began to linger on my tongue.

“B… finesse?”

“Big… ! “Gwae, are you okay?”

“You are better than me… !”

“It’s okay. “I narrowly escaped fatal injury.”

After her gunshots died down, part of Finesse’s shoulder was torn off and blood was pouring on her floor.

As she pushed me away, she took her shot instead of me.

“Don’t make that face. Because I’m really okay… Ugh!”

As she said that, she was actually breathing heavily.

She seemed to be enduring the pain, but fine wrinkles had formed between her eyebrows.

This probably means that it is a pain that is too much for even her to fully endure.

“Artea!”

“I’ve already subdued it with a bow!”

I was complacent.

Just as I was wandering around trying to find out the identity of the darkness, it is only natural that the darkness is keeping an eye on me… !

Forgetting this important fact, I wandered around without warning.

What is the result? It was a death crisis and a finesse injury.

‘You stupid bastard…’ !’

It’s called a dual world, but this wasn’t the world I knew, nor was it a peaceful place.

Even though I knew that, I relied on Finesse and acted naturally.

She said that as long as it was her, she would have no problem…….

“Whoa…” ! Artea, you said you subdued the enemy, right?”

“Yes. Shall I bring him here?”

“No, kill him.”

“Yes? But then I can’t dig up information…….”

“I won’t open my mouth, even if I have to die anyway. “It’s a waste of time, so just kill him.”

“Ah, I understand!”

This time, as we have done so far, we tried to resolve the matter peacefully through dueling.

However, in order to eliminate me, the opponent used a shooting method rather than a duel, and hurt my precious person.

‘If you want to fight to the death and kill each other, I will do as you wish… !’

I burned away any remaining hesitation in my mind.
