The Devil’s Dead Child - Chapter 313



Only Noblemtl

#Episode 313, Truth

If Aaron is resurrected, things will naturally calm down… , There was no need to appear close to the enemy who killed Aaron right in front of Casas.

I was too tired to explain the situation kindly, so I cut back and forth and took action.

Slurp.

He made an awl out of sectatorium and inserted it into Yushin’s abdomen.

Sigh!

It was an unusual move that even an ordinary person could avoid, but Yushin gave up his stomach in a daze at my actions, which showed no signs of hostility or intent.

“… … ?”

He just looked at Awl and me alternately with unfocused eyes.

It seemed like he still hadn’t recovered from the shock of not only my sudden action, but also the shock of hearing Aaron’s identity.

‘So, did you say that the reason you came here was because of Mia’s request?’

It seems he cared for Mia more than I thought. No matter how good Mia’s talent was, it was a bit surprising.

anyway.

“You screwed it up, so you have to take responsibility.”

“… … .”

“I believe I can recover well. “I’ll go to the imperial palace first.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and exploded the awl.

Phew!

The sectatorium fragments that exploded inside pierced Yushin’s entire body and scattered in all directions, scattering blood mist.

The guy’s new model was blown off and fell to the ground.

Cooung.

Judging by the strength of the gravitational field, as if a giant was stepping on it from above, it seemed that the falling speed was controlled in some way even while falling.

The last time I saw Yushin, his expression was very distorted.

Of course it had to be painful, but more than that, it felt like a complaint that it was too much pressure on my hands.

Still, since I steered it away from the heart, I think he should recover in 15 minutes.

I glanced back at Casas and saw that his lifeless gaze, which had been directed in this direction, was now looking directly at me and shedding tears.

That was a sadness that would disappear when Aaron came back to life.

I collected the sectatorium fragments, reshaped them into a scabbard, and infused magic into the teleportation ring.

The surroundings became completely dark, and the scenery immediately changed.

Columbia.

These are the safety coordinates of the Lac Vishia Garrison that we passed through on our way to meet Yushin.

Beep￣! Beep￣!

A sensor that detected an unauthorized user sounded an ear-piercing alarm.

‘ah.’

In the case of public coordinates, the meaning of ‘safe’ coordinates is lost unless they are used with approval.

“… “I guess I’m out of my mind.”

How many times have you promised yourself not to make similar mistakes?

Clap, clap!

I tried to open the door and go out, but it was locked and wouldn’t open.

Since it was a digital device, the unlock magic did not work.

Perhaps it is set to automatically detain unauthorized users when an alarm sounds.

“… … .”

I was thinking about just breaking it, but waited for a while.

If there were various devices, wouldn’t CCTV be installed as well?

Crunch. Weeeing─.

As expected, it didn’t take long before the lock was unlocked and the door opened.

Standing in front of the door was the garrison commander who had guided us during our first visit.

“ah… . Count Baldnan.”

“Oh oh! You even remembered my name. It is an honour.”

It’s not that I remember, it’s that I can’t forget… Well, in the end it’s the same thing.

“I was surprised when he suddenly appeared just by changing the monitor.”

“… ?”

“Haha, I was watching TV just now. “You’re destroying the tower!”

‘Are you saying my appearance was being broadcast all over the world?’

Then, I paused for a moment because it seemed like I had just assassinated their emperor.

Even though it may have been an act to appease Casas, there is no way the viewers would know what was going on.

However, he quickly realized that Yushin’s appearance was different from what he had seen in the palace, and he nodded.

I was the only one who saw through Yushin’s true face, but he must have changed his appearance as he must have sold his face by establishing diplomatic relations with world leaders.

“I knew he was an unusual person ever since His Majesty asked me to serve him politely, but it was truly shocking. “I looked into it again and found that there is no one here on Earth who doesn’t already know-”

I didn’t have enough space in my heart to listen to the earl’s chatter, so I cut it out accordingly.

“… I’m thinking of going to Rak Visia. “I don’t need any guidance.”

He said it kindly, but he said he would leave on his own, so get out of the way.

The Count seemed to have read my gloomy mood and then stepped back with a bewildered look on his face.

“Oh, yeah… . All right. omg!”

“Hmph!”

dump!

The Count and his lieutenants, who had been standing aside, suddenly took a step back and collapsed on the ground.

I realized that it wasn’t just the atmosphere that they felt.

As I became aware of the energy, a dreary magical energy, including life, was slowly flowing out of me.

They are also people who practiced magical power in the traditional way of Rak Vishia.

I was scared when I felt the deadly force radiating from me.

It was only after seeing their reactions that I realized the ‘release’ of energy, because that was not what I had intended.

‘… ‘This is what it felt like for a contractor to crave power.’

I immediately connected to Gu Chang-soo’s five senses.

***

【The ‘Tarantor Kill Mission’ failed.】

[The following disadvantages apply.]

[Acquisition of ability experience points is limited for 24 hours. (Time remaining 23:59:59)]

[Magic power recovery speed is reduced by 20% for 24 hours. (Time remaining 23:59:59)]

[If you survive while receiving a debuff, your resistance to elites/bosses increases by 1.]

“omg!”

Gu Chang-soo suddenly came to his senses when he heard a series of system notifications.

He quickly checked the message to see if something was wrong and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

‘Phew… . ‘You failed.’

As expected, the debuff appeared, but the bigger disadvantage for him was that Han Seong-jun disappeared.

‘But why did I lose my mind?’

At first glance, I remembered looking for Han Seongjun even while I was unconscious, but when I opened my eyes, it was like a distant dream.

‘What happened to Seongjun?’

When I thought about asking directly, the numb feeling returned and my hearing began to pick up the rough breathing sounds around me.

I suddenly raised my upper body and looked around.

While I was unconscious, I shed tears and my eyelids, which were stuck together with dry eye, barely fell off.

What immediately caught my eye from my low gaze were dozens of corpses of players.

“… !”

and non-player injuries.

It’s surprising that all the players who don’t even know when they appeared are dead,

Another group of non-players who seemed to have achieved such great things together were confronting the investigation team, so the situation was unknown.

Two groups of people, covered in blood and panting, as if they had been swinging weapons at each other just a moment ago… .

They stopped fighting and were looking up at the ceiling.

‘ah… !’

Gu Chang-su recalled a dreamy memory.

A shock like a tower collapsing.

Vibration transmitted to the back.

It’s absurd that I felt my surroundings better while I was unconscious, but it certainly seemed like I felt scared.

“Goo Chang-soo has woken up!”

“!”

All eyes in the crowd were directed at Gu Chang-soo.

Gu Chang-soo was also startled by the voice suddenly pointing at him and shouting.

This is because the person who shouted was not a member of the investigation team.

Gu Chang-soo quickly looked around both sides and roughly sensed the atmosphere.

Unlike the investigation team, which gave us worried looks, the gazes on the other side were all menacing.

‘I… ‘That was a hot potato.’

The [Notice] skill, which I naturally developed while living a difficult life, allowed me to quickly sweep through the opposing group.

‘… Seo Beom-jin?’

Jaehyun Yoo and Sohee Hong were also there.

‘Why are the named NPCs targeting me? Is this similar to the one Song Yeon-hee took me with before? It was because of Seongjun, they didn’t have any ill feelings towards me… uh? player?’

Gu Chang-soo, who was racking his brain, found a player among Seo Beom-jin’s group.

Looking at the bruises on his face and the long chains hanging from his hands and feet, it seemed like he was not being treated as a colleague.

At that moment, our eyes met and he gave me an earnest look.

And a whisper flew into the system window.

(‘I’m Ghost’ whisper: Fulldexkel! Please save me.)

The sender clearly had the nickname of the person he was looking at.

Before Gu Chang-su, who was embarrassed, could say anything, Seo Beom-jin opened his mouth.

“I think something happened to the tower… It’s quiet. Anyway, now that we’ve stopped fighting, I’d like to ask you again. Please give us Gu Changsu.”

Park Dae-geun, who received Seo Beom-jin’s gaze, snorted and responded.

“My answer doesn’t change. furthermore… Anyway, you can’t go anywhere now. “You should be arrested here because you dared to touch the members.”

“Then I have no choice. “Please forgive us as this is a desperate situation for us as well.”

When Seo Beom-jin tried to straighten his sword again, Hong So-hee stepped in and said, as if to stop him.

“Now that Gu Chang-soo has woken up, let’s ask him.”

Gu Chang-soo again faced Hong So-hee with focused gaze.

“… “We believe that they are providing Han Seong-jun with information about the world known as ‘Romance 33.’”

Koo Chang-soo was not surprised when the word “Romance 33” came out of the mouth of a non-player.

It’s just that I’m a little busy checking the whispers that are pouring in at the same time.

(‘I’m Ghost’ whisper: They capture players and torture them. They check player tendencies with me, and if there is a record of NPC murder, they execute them.)

(‘I’m Ghost’ whisper: I know everything about Romance 33.)

(‘I’m Ghost’ whisper: They think that the appearance of the player and the misfortune that befell them are all because of Han Sang-cheol and his son.)

… Gu Chang-soo understood the general story and was the first to reply.

(So, how long was Ghost held captive by them?)

(‘I’m Ghost’ whisper: It’s the 28th today. If I didn’t have a system clock, I wouldn’t have even noticed the date. Before I came here, I was always locked up.)

(Was there no one to help?)

(‘I’m Ghost’ whisper: That’s because I’m a guy who only plays solo. I tried to ask for help from every nickname I could think of, but they all just blocked me.)

‘… … .’

Gu Chang-su sensed that he was one of his kind.

“… What they’re targeting is the rich Han family. So, if you cooperate, I will let you go without any harm.”

I was so engrossed in talking about the poor player that I missed Hong So-hee’s words.

But these are stories that are not difficult to understand. In the end, isn’t it true that you are trying to persuade them with words and take them away?

Of course, I wasn’t stupid enough to fall for such nonsense.

I had no intention of cooperating with something that would harm Seongjun.

So it wasn’t his problem that caused him conflict.

If you were in that position,

So, if no one comes to rescue me.

‘How scared and lonely I must have been.’

For the first time, Gu Chang-su decided to use his strength for others.

First, tell I’m Ghost to make him feel safe,

(I will save you from those guys.)

I asked Seongjun Han for strength.

‘Give me strength. No matter how much Seongjun treats players like bugs… ‘This is not right.’

Gu Chang-su’s hands and feet were filled with great strength.
