Chapter 082. trust (2)

‘Why aren’t you coming down?’

When the first day passed, I thought it was just like that.

There were so many different parts from the flow of the game, so I thought there was a slight error.

But one day, two days, three days.

Even as time passed, there was no sign of the oracle coming down.

‘What happened?’

It’s a future that only I know, so I can’t hold on to anyone and ask.

No matter how much I was, I was a little embarrassed when the plan I had made from almost half a year ago went through the cracks.

‘… … .’

I thought about it and came up with two possible causes.

If the first or second trust did not go down to Amy.

Amy is an extra that is not mentioned by name in the original game.

In other words, even if the first oracle was received because of his relationship with me, the second oracle might have been received by Cardinal Adelia, who was originally supposed to receive the oracle.

Cardinal Adelia was not from the Empire, so it wouldn’t be strange if news hadn’t reached her yet.

‘… It doesn’t matter.’

Simply because the trust has gone down to someone else.

Of course, the position of Amy, who has just been appointed as a saint, will be ambiguous, but considering the gentle nature of Cardinal Adelia, it will not become a serious problem.

The problem is, if the oracle really ‘didn’t go down to anyone’.

In the case of sending the first oracle too quickly and consuming too much divinity, even if briefly, the second oracle could not go down.

If this… .

‘… What will happen if I do this?’

It’s a bit vague.

Without an oracle, can he really be called an ‘apostle’?

Cale, who is not an apostle, is very likely to be treated as just a little unusual wizard in the eyes of others.

No, since being a wizard isn’t easy to see in the first place, you may not even feel what’s special about it.

‘Then is it rather good?’

I do not know.

If you don’t become an apostle, there will be no threat from monsters right now, so you’ll look fine, but in the long run, you’ll regret the weight of that title.

It is said that there is a one-size-fits-all.

‘Hmm… … .’

The conclusion I came to after thinking about it was to bring it and think about it.

Now that I think about it, it’s just speculation, and it’s clear that Kayle’s ability is necessary whether he’s an apostle or not.

I made a decision and called Noah.

“Noah.”

“?”

“Let’s pack some things in advance.”

As the competition period was long, there was still some time left before returning to the kingdom, but considering the time to bring Cale, it was a bit tight.

-who?

“that… . there is. I’ll bring it right away and let you know.”

“… … .”

Noah himself asked, but he wasn’t very curious, so he immediately turned off his attention and packed his things.

next day.

After confirming that the oracle had not come down today, I immediately went to the instructor who was in charge of leading.

“Instructor.”

“Roan? What happened?”

“There is a place I want to visit, can I leave it for a few days?”

“How many days?”

“yes. You can return until you return to the kingdom.”

“Originally, it’s only right to follow… .”

No matter how many servants there are, it is not recommended to spend several days without an escort.

However, the instructor, who glanced at me, blurted out his words, asked insinuatingly.

“Isn’t that necessary?”

“… … .”

This seemed to be due to trust in my usual behavior rather than annoyance.

Even though I had flipped the department a few times regarding evaluations and grades, it was because I was a cadet with very common sense.

“yes. It is just for tourism purposes.”

“I get it. Please be careful.”

“thank you.”

after obtaining permission.

Noah and I immediately left the city.

That’s how I moved to a small village in the northeastern part of the Empire, also called the ‘Village of Beginnings’.

* * *

“It’s a bit far.”

“… … .”

“Do you know how to ride a horse?”

Noah shook his head.

So I just rode it behind me.

Noah’s weight is light, so the two of them should have no problem.

“Hey!”

Every time you arrive at a village in the middle of the day, change horses and move.

As you move away from the center of the empire, wide plains spread out and people begin to become rare.

“We are almost there.”

Noah takes a deep breath as he crosses the open plains.

It’s been a long time since I came to a place full of the vitality of nature, and I feel better.

It was the same for me too.

‘It’s okay sometimes.’

I don’t think it’s bad to go out this far sometimes as a change of mood.

He said, gripping the horse’s reins tightly.

“Shall we go a little faster?”

* * *

It felt so good just to run across the plains.

however.

As I got closer and closer to the starting town, my condition became strange.

“… … .”

Strangely, cold sweat broke out from his body and his heart beat irregularly.

To the extent that Noah, who could not see it, was worried.

Squeeze.

-are you okay?

“… are you okay. Really, why are you doing this?”

Seeing that there is no problem with Noah and the horse, this is the anxiety that only I feel.

This bizarre uneasiness peaked when the starting town was close enough to be seen with the naked eye.

exactly.

“uh?”

“… ?”

When I saw black smoke blooming in the village.

I heard that farmers sometimes set fire to their fields, but it didn’t seem to be that level.

In the first place, now is not the time when the harvest is over.

More than anything.

‘fire? Was there anything like this before?’

I speeded up due to the overwhelming anxiety and headed towards the village that had turned black.

But really strangely.

The moment I entered the village, which had already been reduced to ashes, this uneasiness and strange confusion disappeared in an instant.

Instead, a corner of my head tickled.

As if something came to mind… .

“… … .”

“… ?”

Noah tugged at my fluctuating expression, but I had no time to react.

As if possessed by something, I moved into the village that had become ashes.

People who died in the fire could be seen here and there.

hee hee hee!!

The horse ran away in the middle of the village in the middle of the look of the village.

Noah, who stretched out his hand for a moment, asks.

-The person you’re looking for is here?

“… Uh uh.”

Cognitive dissonance is about to come, but my memory could be wrong.

obviously here

As expected, Cale was found soon.

“… uh?”

If one thing is different from what you expected.

Is it that he is already dead?

-… dead?

“… … .”

But what’s even more strange is that I felt this for some reason.

To be more precise, it felt natural.

‘… why?’

In a situation where it was not strange to panic, perhaps because of the influence of bloodline, I calmly thought about it.

I soon realized why.

At the same time, I also realized that I had been under an absurd misunderstanding.

“under.”

I shook my head. Shed an empty laugh that stretches out of the air.

The one who sent me to this world.

I remembered a conversation with him a year ago.

What were we talking about then? It’s a memory of a year, but it was vivid to me like it happened yesterday.

[What is the problem?]

[It must be a player.]

When he asked what was the cause of the problem, I answered without hesitation that he was a player.

He lost his temper a little, but before long he asked:

[What if it were you?]

[If you can use your ability as it is, can you catch the necromancer?]

[Can you finish the game?]

“… … .”

The situations and texts that I passed over casually made me feel horribly out of place.

What happened next?

I went outside, and the metastasis proceeded immediately.

and… .

[I am making adjustments to balance.]

[The attack difficulty increased by 5.771%.]

‘5.771%’

So far, I thought it was a moderate level of adjustment.

But thinking back, it’s strange.

Even if you think outside of individual abilities, I, who knows most of the truth (strategy) in this world, has been transferred, but wasn’t the 5.771% increase just that?

As such, ‘significant changes’ must have occurred in other areas.

And that change… .

‘Kale’s death.’

It was the death of the original protagonist.

As a result, a lightning-like realization came to my mind and I realized one thing.

‘… It was me.’

From the moment I was possessed until now.

That I am the only ‘savior’ in this world that is destined for destruction.

‘Then the blood thickened… .’

Because I landed here with Kayle’s ‘growth’ ability.

The person who sent me here heard my reply that there was a problem with the original protagonist, and gave away his abilities to me.

The disappearing blood-sucking instinct was manifested beyond tens of centuries through this.

When you are blankly frozen in an indescribable feeling.

From noble mtl dot com

A familiar voice came.

“Were there still living humans?”

sweet sweetness.

However, he instinctively turned his head away from the violent energy within him.

The person I confirmed was a very familiar person.

Commander Ymir.

he was right in front of me

“… … .”

I couldn’t do anything

It wasn’t because I was scared or because I didn’t understand the current situation.

‘ah.’

Opposite.

because I realized

What do you call this situation now?

Coincidence, beyond inevitability.

‘Fate.’

The process doesn’t matter.

From the moment I became possessed, this world had already been ‘created’ like this.

So, this was a predetermined death and also a predetermined ordeal.

It’s just that the numerous karma I’ve accumulated so far has been tangled together, and as a result, the subject of the ordeal has become Ymir.

‘sh*t.’

It was stupid.

“I will send you to the same place.”

Ymir approaches, looking at us with indifferent eyes.

I immediately drew my sword.

however.

“dare.”

Wow!!!!!

Ymir’s hand seemed to move for a moment, and then mine tore.

The sword he held flew far away and rolled on the ground at random.

Compared to when I was possessed, I had grown overwhelmingly now, but I couldn’t even react.

“ah… !”

“You dare to point your sword at me when it’s not enough to beg for help?”

Enraged Ymir moves.

I instinctively raised my mana and threw my body.

Chew!!

The sword imbued with thick demonic energy cuts through my upper body as if it were natural.

A few seconds of memory disappeared from the tremendous pain.

“Huh!?”

Even if it was a little deep, it was an instant death.

Although I barely lived.

The thick demonic energy on his sword penetrates his body, and he instantly loses consciousness.

This was not a level that could be endured with mental strength.

‘… ah.’

Before I close my eyes,

last seen.

‘Noah?’

It was Noah who rushed at Ymir, pulling out the thick and ferocious demon energy from all over his body, and Ymir, who looked at Noah like that, with a somewhat astonished expression.

He soon licked his lips with an expression filled with joy.

‘… found.’

Before I could think of the meaning of those words, my consciousness sank deeper into the depths of the water.

* * *

Burr!

“-ah!”

Suddenly, Sigrun, who had been drinking tea at the branch of the World Tree, trembled like mad, jumped to his feet.

Some information flowed into her head through the branches.

location. and warning.

“John! now… !”

“I am ready.”

Before Sigrun could say anything, Johann saw the atmosphere and grabbed his sword.

Ian, who was next to me, asked.

“Sir John? what’s happening now… .”

“Looks like she found an apostle.”

“… !!!”

“Looking at the atmosphere, it doesn’t seem like it will end peacefully. First of all, prepare yourself.”

“… ! yes!”

Ian grabs the sword.

At this point, Sigrun, who had received all the information, called Karansis.

“Kyung, please stay here just in case.”

“All right.”

Sigrun raised mana.

para pro.

An ancient magic tool that explosively amplified the user’s movement speed, folded in the shape of a wing just above her shoulder blades, opened wide.

Plus.

‘Unlock arms.’

Woooo!!

After casting an ancient incantation, the spread wings soon turn golden.

With the overwhelming amount of mana typical of a high elf, the power of an ancient magic tool was raised by 100%.

Sigrun said.

“Follow me closely.”
