How To Live as a Scammer in the Game

10. I’m going to stick with one

“Sir Rohan. Where are you going?”

Read at readwn.com

Just before leaving Straun.

The Bishop of Heint called me and stopped me.

It seemed like he already knew the question, but… I answered while standing on the horse.

“Oriton of Laderun.”

“Laderun Kingdom. Isn’t that a beautiful place too?”

“……”

I want to leave quickly, but why are you holding on to me?

As if he had noticed my expression, Bishop Heint went straight to the point.

He took out a small letter from his pocket.

“If you go to Laderun, would you like to stop by the capital, Siphoreo? I would like you to deliver this letter to the Archbishop of Seaphoreo.”

Seaphora.

I nodded.

If he went to the Laderun Kingdom anyway, he wanted to visit Siphoreo once.

Because there was one useful thing sleeping there.

I didn’t bother to refuse even such a small request.

“Not so.”

“Thank you. Ah. By the way, absolutely! Great! You must not open it.”

Bishop Heint said with a smile.

Saying it absolutely made me feel more curious.

“……”

“I will pray that you are safe on your way.”

I took care of it appropriately, replaced the greeting with a small nod of the head, and started talking.

Diaz followed me by my side.

* * *

Looking at the back of Rohan, who was blurring in the distance, Bishop Heint turned around.

Next to him, the vice-bishop asked.

“Director. That letter. Could it be that it was a letter of recommendation for the position of Heretic Questioner?”

“Haha. Well, someone has already figured it out. It’s a matter that should be thoroughly kept secret so that even the person receiving the recommendation doesn’t know.”

“Have I been by the parish priest’s side for a year or two? Now you can’t fool me with most things?”

“I see. We’ve been together for a long time, right? We’ve been together since I was in full swing as the Heretic Questioner, right?”

“Yes. To the point where I can’t remember how many times I almost died.”

The Bishop of Heint looked at the vice-priest.

Even the vice-chief, who looked so strong, had turned his hair white before he knew it.

“Time is so colorless. Vice-principal, in the past, I thought I would chew even the devil’s corps commander.”

“What about the corps commander? Did you forget that you almost got your neck blown off while fighting with one of the staff?”

“Hahaha! Yes, that happened. Anyway, now we’re old, and the next generation is happening.”

The Vice-Chief stared blankly in the direction of the road Rohan had left.

He wasn’t even visible anymore.

“It’s far away. I can’t even see it anymore. It’s to the point where I can’t even see it, having walked around so many battlefields.”

It was the parish head of Heint who understood the meaning of the vice president’s words.

“That’s right. At such a young age, it’s already impossible to measure that level.”

“Yes. I didn’t feel any spirit… The ability I showed in that battle not too long ago. It was admirable.”

“It means that the level of spirit is already revealed and beyond the level. To be honest, not only that, but I felt that the eyes on the battlefield were amazing. It was like controlling the Paladins from above from a third person perspective.”

“Yes. His leadership was at a level that reminded me of Gauron-sama. He divided the units into units to reduce damage, and ordered the dispersed units to fill each other’s rear… It was like someone who had done it before.”

The Vice-Chief stuck out his tongue.

“Already among the Paladins, he is called a hero.”

“It’s the same idea. The more you think about it, the more you’re surprised, right?”

“So… are you going to pass it on now? The seat of the Heretic Questioner, I mean.”

“Because you can’t take it forever. Wouldn’t it be bad to give it to someone who needs it? Of course, that friend might refuse.”

“……”

The Vice-Chief also had no choice but to nod and admit it.

Even if he returned to his prime, he would not be able to reach even Rohan’s toes.

If you are a person with that kind of ability, and if you are a hero who has fought in the shadows that no one knows about…

He deserved anything and everything.

The time when I was walking with such thoughts.

Andrew rode a horse from afar, hurriedly approaching.

“President!”

“Sir Andrew. What’s going on?”

“That, that, Rohan! Knight of Rohan! Have you already left?”

“I left a little while ago.”

“aaagh!”

“What’s going on?”

Andrew immediately started talking and answered.

“I’m going to try a couple of matches before I go!”

Andrew quickly disappeared.

Seeing him like that, the assistant principal shook his head.

“It’s not that way.”

* * *

Damn dag dag dag dag.

I drove my horse at a speed that wasn’t slow and looked at the scenery of the forest road.

“……”

“……”

without a single conversation.

It’s been several days already.

‘Aren’t all Paladins so talkative?’

Memories of Monted came back to me.

Didn’t you go for a long time without saying a word at that time?

I was also very frustrated, so I tried to add a few words……

[yes.]

[no.]

[it’s okay.]

All of the answers were like this.

Can a conversation continue like this?

I thought I would become a little closer to him because he saved me when I was young…

I had a feeling that there would be difficulties that were not as easy as I thought.

Still, it was Diaz who did his job as an adjutant in his own way.

In the midst of not having ingredients, I also prepare meals by hunting.

In moderation, I chased away the wild beasts.

The role of the navigation was also perfect.

Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy my travels comfortably.

Including time to organize your thoughts.

‘It’s Oryton…’

With Straun at the center, the six kingdoms were wrapped around Straun like flower petals.

The Kingdom of Laderon, where Oriton was located, was just a mid-level kingdom.

It’s not a big country, but it’s not a weak country either.

The reason why the Kingdom of Laderon had such power was because there were many historical sites.

Thanks to this, he was able to obtain items such as Ancient Blah from time to time.

Well, that didn’t matter right away.

Right now, my target was, of course, Joe Barton.

‘Was he the prince of the underworld?’

Even if it seemed a little childish, there was no adjective that could describe Joe Barton that well.

As much as that, in the so-called dark places, Joe Barton played the role of king.

From a bully in the back alley to becoming a prince in the dark.

The driving force was his unique skill, [Left Arm of the Colossus].

True to the grandiose name of the Giant God Soldier, the Giant God Soldier’s left arm was a powerful unique skill.

Even to the extent that users evaluate it to be included in the minimum advanced level.

The Colossus’ left arm was a type of unique skill that boosted stats, and an increase of about 1000% was applied.

Attack power, defense power, agility, even magic resistance.

All stats were increased by 1000% of the body.

Even if the original ability increases, it increases again accordingly, so it could be said that it is a unique skill that makes it stronger the stronger it is.

Because of this, it has become one of the unique skills that are unrivaled in terms of physical strength.

In the original work, there was also a cinematic movie where Joe Barton blocks Hellfire with his left arm.

That kind of merit was the reason I came all the way here without giving up the giant god’s left arm.

Joe Barton also said that he took control of the underworld because of that one thing.

Clearly, judging by time, even Joe Barton would not have been able to obtain the [Left Arm of the Colossus] yet.

‘Jobarton became the prince of the shadows in just three years,’ said a villager.’

In three years, Diaz of the original work was exactly the point of quitting the paladin.

The timing was right before I quit being a paladin, so it was a little tight.

But the real problem is…

‘It’s about where and how he gets that unique skill.’

Originally, Joe Barton appeared already possessing the ability.

Of course, he said, ‘Where and how did I get this ability!’ He did not give the same lines as the same explanatory bug.

It’s not a problem to steal a unique skill because he’s only going to do evil anyway.

The biggest obstacle was the lack of accurate data on where to intercept.

So my conclusion is.

‘Let’s bump into each other.’

If you look closely, the time will come.

* * *

Time passed quickly.

And finally, the gates of Oryton, the destination, came into sight.

“I will guide you to the mayor.”

At the gates Diaz stepped forward and said a few words, and this reply came back.

It was probably announcing that I was a member of the Seven Knights.

Thanks to that, we were able to enter Oryton easily.

‘They said it was a VIP treat. It wasn’t bullsh*t.’

It’s not that it’s not, really we received a not bad response.

It was the first time he felt the prestige of the Seven Knights.

Assistants were attached in all directions, and security forces followed.

I didn’t know what to do, so I left all the work to Diaz.

Diaz had served as the lieutenant of the Seven Knights before, so the job was handled very naturally.

Seeing him even greet some high-ranking dignitaries, it seemed like he was already familiar with them.

Thanks to that, until I met the mayor, I hardly ever opened my mouth.

So, a series of procedures are completed.

Diaz and I were waiting for the mayor in the parlor of City Hall.

“The Mayor of Oryton is on the friendly side of the Seven Knights. If you have a request, he will easily accept it as long as there are no major problems.”

“Right.”

“Do you have something to tell me?”

“Is it okay if I destroy the city a little?”

“……Yes?”

at that time.

Just then, the mayor, Baron Lofenser, entered the drawing room.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Lofenser. It is an honor to meet you as a member of the Seven Knights.”

This time, Diaz stepped in and cleaned things up.

And the story soon got to the point.

“Then, did Lord Rohan come to Oriton for an appointment, or is he staying for a while on the way to the capital…”

Diaz took his place and gave the answer.

“Sir, you have a special reason for visiting Oryton.”

Well, no way.

“Ah. Do you have a schedule? What…?”

To that question, Diaz, who had always been able to answer without hesitation, hesitated for the first time.

“That……the city is a bit smashed……to destroy it…”

Mayor Lofencer’s face turned into an expression full of question marks.

“Yes? Ah, yes? Yes?”

I, who had been quiet, added a little more explanation.

“Outside the city. Would you mind if I touch you?”

* * *

Diaz and I took a day off and started moving right away.

The time when the sun goes down and darkness creeps in.

A bar on the outskirts of town.

There Diaz and I took our seats and sat down.

“The mayor said he had never heard of the name Joe Barton.”

“You’re saying you’re not particularly big.”

“Yes.”

I nodded.

As expected, it seemed that Joe Barton had not acquired his own skill yet.

That meant I wasn’t too late yet.

Now all we have to do is find that Joe Barton…

Just in time, suitable guides appeared.

At first glance, the men who looked like they were waking up in the back alley, came to me on their own.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen you? Is this your first trip? Shall I give you directions?”

“Ha ha ha! Yes. We specialize in geography here. You just need to pay a little for the labor cost.”

One guy even openly touched the pocket.

“Hey! You’re thick? Where are you, youngster? But why did you come with only one bodyguard? Thank you. Giggles!”

I quietly glanced at Diaz.

“Start.”

“All right.”

puck! Perpuck! Wow!…….

and after a while

We were standing in front of a house.

The men were in a state of bursting eyes and nosebleeds.

Diaz and I were still sober.

I pointed to the door of the house with my chin.

“Are you sure it’s here?”

“Muh, of course! This is where Joe Barton lives!”

Thanks to being educated to the point of honorifics, I had a very satisfied smile.

“Yes. If it’s a lie, it will become your body.”

“……!”

“Huh, huh!”

I gave the order to Diaz.

“Go in.”

“Yes!”

Diaz’s kick blows through the door.

Kwadangtangtang!

I stepped into the house.
