I’m not going to die - I’m not going to die chapter 76
76 – Is he really dead (3)
“I don’t know.”
At the bishop’s answer, the hero sighed.
I hoped for it, but my expectations were not rewarded.
Still, I said the best I could as a bishop.
You shouldn’t mention when you’ll be resurrected, because it’s true that Argal is an immortal.
“Still, since I’m an immortal, can’t I be revived?”
“…It’s okay if it’s a week or two. But one year? What if 2 years pass? That would be a problem.”
The warrior considered the worst possible case.
It is said that Argal died several times and was resurrected immediately.
The side effect of the process is to gradually fall into madness and go mad.
What if there are more side effects that are not yet known here?
For example, if it is an immortality that takes a long rest period after dying several times. There could have been a situation where he had to face Argal after a long time.
When such an opinion was presented, the bishop also shook his head with a serious face.
I had no choice but to put on a serious face because I was so delusional.
“It would be right to watch. It is too soon to judge hastily.”
“All right.”
First of all, the bishop corrected the hero’s misunderstanding and moved to the place he had to go first.
He had to meet Bethia.
As someone who is no different than her caregiver.
“I have to go see Bethia.”
“Oh, come on.”
The hero, who knew the relationship between Bessia and the bishop, had no reason to stop him.
The hero made eye contact with Reinhardt again and discussed future problems.
“First of all, it would be right to steal Argal’s body.”
“Can you steal it?”
“There are many ways, the coffin was induced to be transferred to the church. And since Bishop and Vesiah are there, you should be able to steal them easily with just the right amount of help.”
The warrior nodded at his words.
Definitely a good way.
Even if the church manages it, Bethia and the bishop are officials who can have a great influence on the church.
With their help, we could easily get the coffin out.
“Then, I will go see Argal’s older brother.”
“Do whatever you want, I’ll just clean up and go.”
Rubbing his tired-looking eyes, Reinhardt moved to perfect the finish.
Thinking about the hardships he had suffered so far, he might have collapsed from exhaustion, but seeing Reinhardt continuing to clean up, the hero felt that he was really great.
Then he remembered the warrior party.
A party to live and die with her.
The hero could choose a candidate for the party.
If I choose right away, Argal and Reinhardt will definitely enter.
There were Asel, Besiah, and Franc in the other categories, but if there was a problem, Bessia was a priest, but normally only saints could enter the warrior party unconditionally if they were priests.
Even though Bessia is a powerful cleric who is close to the saintess, she was not a saint after all, so she probably won’t have a place in the warriors’ party.
I don’t know what would happen if she decided to become a saintess, but for now, it was the role of a saintess candidate who existed separately for the position of the warrior party.
The hero felt sorry for this, but he looked at Reinhardt thinking that it was something he could not help.
It is her role to ease the burden on her colleagues.
If I couldn’t come forward and play the leading role, I had to be at the side to help, so I could see that I had fulfilled my minimum role.
“Leave the rest to me.”
“…Can I trust you?”
“Yes, I will meet Argal’s brother for a while and I will take care of the rest.”
“If so.”
Reinhardt yawned loudly and took a staggering step.
As soon as he relaxed at the request of the warrior, it seemed that he was soon exhausted.
After organizing in her head what she had to do after Reinhardt, she moved on.
It is to meet the gathered colleagues after finishing this work.

“I’m curious.”
Even if I die, I will be here again.
After signing the original contract, he was resurrected immediately, so there was no need to come to this space.
However, this time there was no contract.
After death, Jiyeon existed, and while he was dead with the Great Demon, he could face him like this.
[what?]
“That’s your intention.”
His intention was to drive me into madness.
Even if it gives me the comfort to let go of everything, the problem is that the surroundings become shit.
If that is the purpose of the great devil, I understand.
You have to be careful of his temptations.
But I don’t understand this very well.
The fact that the resurrection time was extended, and the fact that he immediately killed me as soon as I tried to talk about the time extension.
What the hell is the devil’s intention?
Are you going to make the people around you sad by making them think I’m dead?
Is there a reason why the Great Devil should be like that?
He didn’t even listen to these questions come out of his mouth, he answered them on his own.
[Because that’s fun.]
“No way.”
Do you mean that you play these pranks simply for fun?
I sighed heavily and felt that there was nothing I could do.
He is an absolute being who can achieve anything he wants with a single gesture of his hand.
I should consider it fortunate that such a being is only playing pranks on me rather than having any malice against me.
Rather, you can use this point.
Being that kind of being, there will be times when I don’t want an ending in which I die too easily or get defeated, and offer a helping hand.
As soon as I thought of that, the Great Devil did not deny it either.
[Of course it will. If you lose too easily, that’s also not fun.]
“Should I like to be helpful?”
[At any time, to rejoice… . From what got my attention.]
I don’t want to be happy at all.
It’s like holding a double-edged sword that doesn’t know when it will stab me.
It could have reversed a dangerous situation, but it could also have overturned a situation that could have already been completely won.
…but I guess it doesn’t matter.
Will I be given a situation that I can easily overcome anyway?
At the point of dealing with the demon lord, there will be countless cases where the help of the great devil is desperately needed.
[Huh, I’ll have to see if that’s true.]
“…do whatever you want.”
Exactly, I can’t even stop it.
I shake my head and look into this world.
It was similar to the imagery world he had seen through the Black Pagoda, but it was a good place to rest in a subtly different way.
There was a great demon in front of me that felt intimidating just by looking at it, but the great demon didn’t move much.

Just treat it as a structure and rest nearby.
…In a way, it’s a place where you can take a break for a while.
After the struggle in reality, I was able to rest in peace.
As I sat there blankly, something came to my mind.
It is a fact that must be asked unconditionally in relation to the contract.
“I have a question for you.”
[You mean the extension of your resurrection?]
“yes.”
this is comfortable
If you want to say something, he predicts anything and answers in advance, so there is no need to say hurtful words.
“Is it permanently extended?”
[no. This is the longest extension, and each time you die in the future, the extended time will be slightly shorter. In the end, even if you die, you will be resurrected in a few hours.]
“It was an overly generous contract.”
[The contract for your immediate resurrection is also lenient.]
“I’m curious about one more thing. What is the most precious thing to offer in the contract for immediate resurrection?”
The great devil, who easily answers and informs about anything, kept his mouth shut this time.
…I do feel something when I hit Remind me of something precious now.
But the moment I fall into madness, everything precious to me disappears.
At that point, can I offer something precious?
Nothing is precious, how can the contract be fulfilled.
It was so quiet.
If there’s one thing I feel too.
In the end, if you want to kill the Demon King, you must make a contract with the Great Devil.
If there was no immediate resurrection, there would be no way to confront the demon lord.
The madness that followed death was meaningless.
At that point, I will throw everything and kill the demon king.
But if you have to kill someone dear to you to fulfill the terms of the contract.
I am seriously thinking about who it should be.
Who do I value now?
I thought about it a few times and laughed.
“I’d rather not sign a contract.”
[That is also your choice.]
When I was determined to kill someone that popped into my head, I got a strong sense of rejection.
It was right not to do this.
It was better to find a way to kill the Demon King without making a contract.
Looking at this image world, I was troubled.
“So, when will you be resurrected?”
I can’t get a feel for it.
I thought it would take a day or two.
Too many died in the process of killing demons.
The more dead, the longer it takes to resurrect.

Ardel was surprised to see someone who broke into the official residence.
“Are you Argal’s older brother, Ardel?”
“Ah, are you a hero?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Ardel felt sick to his stomach this time.
As Argal hadn’t been resurrected, a bigger tycoon appeared after Reinhardt.
somewhat expected.
Because Argal’s past was a hero.
I guessed that they somehow managed to tie it up even after returning, but they were really walking with the hero.
Ardel sighed and accepted it comfortably, thinking it was fate.
What can I do for my younger brother who is destined to kill the demon king?
They were in the middle of a meeting on countermeasures against Argal, who was not reviving.
At the table were Raeli and Fran, including the intervening warrior.
…Asher was in the corner over there, tearing her nails with her teeth.
As Ardel felt more pressure, he did not put down one argument.
“For now, Argal will be resurrected.”
From Ardell’s point of view, that was certain.
Immortality is an absolute ability, and the only thing that can control that ability is the Great Demon, and it never completely disappeared.
For some reason, the resurrection will be delayed for a while.
“…Or, instead of immediately reviving, wouldn’t it be possible to use up the immortality ability?”
Raeli predicted.
If it were possible to die and resurrect immediately, Argal would have used it long ago.
However, the fact that he took it out for the first time now is a guess that he must have saved it because there was a price somewhere.
But Frank denied it.
“Then wouldn’t Argal have told you earlier? If I die for real this time, people’s reaction itself will be different.”
“Ouch… . So why isn’t Argal resurrected?”
In the midst of such a discussion, a girl squatting in a corner, biting her nails, murmured.
“If I die, I will not leave you alone, I will die with you and follow you, I will die with you even if I die… .”
“Calm down, calm down! Because I’m not dead.”
As the words Asher was muttering were unusual, I had to stop them.
She looked unsteady, but she brushed it off and stood up, trusting Argal.
“If it was really the last… . would have told you Argal died unexpectedly.”
“…What if he really died unexpectedly?”
When Raeli grimly suggested such a possibility, Asher crouched down again and murmured.
“I don’t know, I just have to follow… .”
“What, follow what! Be still, stay still.”
Ardel hated his younger brother the more he handled things.
What should he do if he suddenly dies without giving a single word and doesn’t even resurrect?
Still, I was sure of one thing.
Immortality is absolute, and there is a certainty that Argal will definitely be resurrected.
Because he saw Argal’s memories, he was able to speak confidently in front of everyone.
“I guarantee you, Argal is resurrected.”
“Really?”
“Is that so?”
As everyone was looking at Ardel, his stomach hurt even more, but he couldn’t help it.
Otherwise, it seemed that their minds would be destroyed before Argal could be resurrected.
“Don’t worry, wait. But I’m sure you’ll never die.”
Everyone was relieved here.
Asher indirectly guessed that he knew something because he had personally seen Ardel stopping Argal from falling.
Others, too, had no reason not to believe Argal’s brother’s assurances.
I bet so.
…Argal is still.
Even after a week has passed.
