Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer?

Episode 438: Declare Now (11)

Lilith thought for a moment while checking the instructions that came with Arrogance’s message.

[It’s bait to tempt demons. Humans are desperate too.]

[Have you developed something like that?]

“…It’s amazing. “I didn’t think I had that kind of technology.”

A person who overheard his words added an additional comment. Lilith’s gaze turned to the human wizard.

[That’s not all. Security has become stricter, so they haven’t been able to extract the correct information… but they say there are several large-scale studies in progress.]

From buildings resembling pinwheels that cannot be hidden due to their large scale, to top-secret research conducted only inside the Magic Tower.

Does that wizard really know anything?

[Do you know anything, human?]

“Unfortunately, I don’t know much. “I know there are people capable of conducting such research, but… at least when I was there, such research has never been conducted.”

Or maybe I’m just pretending not to know even though I know?

[Look me in the eyes and tell me, is it true?]

Lilith took off the hood she was wearing. Then his appearance changed. With the appearance of what the subject most loved or loved.

“Due to my bad luck, I don’t know where the snow is… but don’t worry. “I really don’t know anything about these studies.”

Where the hood was lowered, there was only empty darkness.

[…Hehe, that’s right. I will believe you.]

He is a person without love. It’s been a while since something like this happened again. Lilith put her hood back on and turned her head. Sloth, who was lying on the bed and watching them with interest, came into view.

[Are we still far from reading sloth dreams?]

[Huh? Wait… wasn’t that a joke?]

[What do you mean ? That can’t be a joke.]

[No, no. Right now, I’m spreading nightmares all over the place to give you as much stress as possible, so you want me to steal information from here?]

Belphegor, who was comfortably lying on the bed, jumped up with his upper body as if he was quite surprised. Although his face was shaded by the bear skin, his eyes were not visible, but it was easy to see that he was in a state of shock.

[There’s no point in whining at me, you know.]

[If Oman hears it, of course he’ll tell me to do it! But you understand. How difficult it is to interfere with dreams! In order to retrieve information from there, I have to go into that memory and watch it together, and then a trace will definitely remain!]

[That’s something you have to solve.]

[@!$#@#$@#!!!]

Lilith’s words Belphegor made a strange sound, almost like a scream. It wasn’t really worth listening to. As I just said, it was Sloth’s job to erase the traces.

[I’d rather you get the information! You don’t have to worry about getting caught!]

[If that were the case, I would have done it right away. But wizards don’t come out of the magic tower. Even if they do come out, there will only be a lot of people who have no interest in love.]

Even if they succeeded in recruiting someone, it was a problem. The wizards were only talking about what they knew, so conversations were often cut off. Although he was accumulating as much knowledge as possible through various lovers, that alone was not enough to solve the problem.

[You can ask Oman to interpret it… but he does that every time.]

[Just say that Oman is scary.]

[You’re scared. I just don’t want to bother him.]

Anyway, now that I’ve said this, Belphegor will get the information. The human advance is likely to take at least a month, so even considering the wasted time, preparations seem to be sufficiently possible.

[Human, I said earlier that I know someone worth studying. Can you tell me the list?]

“I can tell you as much as I want, but will it have any meaning? “They are all just people, so it would be almost impossible to approach them.”

[I have no intention of approaching them themselves. I just think that if we knew who the research facilitator was, we would be able to evaluate the research to some extent.]

“If that’s the case, of course.”

Lilith paid attention to the human wizard’s tongue, thinking of the miscellaneous demons that would be tempted and used as sacrifices by humans anyway.

“For now, the violet serpent, the atonement fairy, and the wise golden wind. These three will lead the research.”

[Is it all three of them?]

“Ah, people from the warrior’s party may have joined. One of the party members, Daemyeongjang, is also famous as a magician without magic. Also… there is a rumor that Suzaku’s tailor is entrusted to the Purple Serpent’s Magic Tower, so if that is true, he would have participated as well.”

There was no particular sign of lying. [Okay.] Lilith nodded and decided to do her work for today.

* * *

“Why did you do this the other time too?”

Crusher slightly shook his head in response to Mystiltein’s question next to him.

“No way.”

Last time, I couldn’t even see the devil’s snout until I threw the bait.

“Then why are they coming here?”

“Am I friends with demons? Do you know why?”

But today, strangely enough, as soon as I crossed the wall, I started encountering demons often. No… this isn’t actually the level of an encounter…

“Wait a minute… doesn’t it look like there are a whole bunch of demons coming?”

“I think we should go back to the castle.”

Even if you look in the direction Mystiltein is pointing, you can see a group of demons coming behind it. Since each group is spaced out at a distance, it will likely take some time for them all to reach this point… but if you look at the quantity itself, it is at a level where you need to prepare for a water battle.

“Is this really the start of a siege?”

Crusher’s brow furrowed slightly.

“Oh my gosh, I don’t really like the battle line of the castle.”

Beep!

“It was quiet for a while.”

“They may have felt a sense of crisis too.”

“well. “I think that would be a good thing.”

The fact that the demons feel anxious means, in other words, that there is a chance of winning this fight. Crusher spoke calmly and listened to the sound of the whistle ringing.

The head of the patrol was the one who gave the whistle.

“Turn around now! Repeat! “Turn around now!”

Unlike them, the soldiers and adventurers who followed the patrol hurriedly ran towards the castle wall, or rather towards the first expansion zone. The people there seemed to have heard the signal from this direction and began to disappear inside the station.

“All the supplies put out outside will be ruined. Bye bye.”

“All we have to do is kill them all before then.”

“Um, I guess that’s a bit difficult…?”

“Are you discussing the impossible before we even start? “Now I see that he was a gutless little person.”

“Please tell me to be realistic and not petty. Honestly, let’s just stop that together.”

But will they be able to evacuate in time?

Crusher glanced behind him. The demons coming without a line or order were better than rushing in all at once, but the risk was still considerable. This was especially true because there were many artisan-type civilians gathered in the first expansion zone for the second expansion.

“Why two?”

“Is that because I’m going to fall into disrepair? “I have no hobby of risking my life for something that doesn’t make any money.”

“What are you saying, you bastard? “Even if you die now, you die with us.”

Well, it’ll be okay anyway. It seemed as though many soldiers, knights, adventurers, and mercenaries had been deployed in preparation for times like this.

And even though there may be some damage, it will be enough to carry out the defensive battle. This is especially true because the demons are not coming in large numbers all at once, but in small numbers one after another.

“No, where is there a law like that!”

“You have no choice as long as you decide to join us on this journey.”

“They say a guy without a wall has a small dick. “Are you small?”

“What a terrible thing! Even if it’s like this, I’m the one in the whole city—”

“Stop talking nonsense. come.”

Anyway, the flying things arrived nearby first. Members of the patrol unit steadily took out their weapons while swearing.

“We’ll take care of it, so go first!”

“…you are!”

However, when Berserk shouted that, the patrol leader looked momentarily embarrassed.

“I’ll leave it to you!”

But he eventually gave permission. This was possible because those who volunteered to lead the rear knew where they belonged.

“Damn, I can’t take it out because of my dick. “Wow.”

“But can we attack from the air? “I don’t even have a weapon to throw.”

“Why do I need a weapon to throw?”

Crusher briefly questioned Berserk’s words, but immediately understood when he saw her stretching out her hand. If they didn’t have a weapon to throw, all they had to do was turn themselves into a weapon and fly away.

“Sigh!”

Coo!

The crusher that was in Berserk’s hand was thrown into the air with a strong sound of air rippling. Mystiltein, who was watching him, said, ‘Hey, it’s flying well.’ I was amazed.

Squeak!?

“Sigh!”

She bravely rose tens of meters into the air, spun her body around, and struck the bird-shaped demon with her falling leg. The demon fell at high speed with the sound of a neck bone breaking.

bang!

And when the demon collided with the ground and shattered, she used the recoil from hitting the demon to climb onto the body of another demon.

The demon went wild at the sudden added weight, but she didn’t care. Thump. Her hands grabbed both of the devil’s wings. It was a part that had just split off from the body.

Squeeze!

The devil’s wings were torn off by the strength of her grip.

“Attama, my little friend is hot. Oh, don’t throw it away. “I can’t do it with something like that.”

“I didn’t even intend to throw it.”

Meanwhile, those on the ground each grabbed their weapons. It was only natural that Crusher could handle everything.

“I’m glad that happened.”

Crack. The tendons on the forearm hidden by the clothes momentarily stood out, and Mystiltein threw his spear. The spear flew like a rush of arrows and pierced the devil’s head in a straighter and straighter path.

Clap!

The demon with its head exploded fell to the ground, and the spear, still unable to control its strength, continued to rise toward the sky. By the time it uses up all its strength and returns to the ground, its location will be at least a few tens of meters away.

“You can’t pierce the moon.”

However, the moment Mystiltein spoke like that, the soaring spear stopped as if caught by something. Then it started to return to the same route it had just drawn.

“Was it a magic tool?”

“If you make a lot of money, you need to invest a little.”

The person who flexibly held onto the spear that returned at high speed and rotated his body to relieve the force grinned.

“I will catch up to ten.”

“I guess it’s only ten?”

thud! At that point, the crusher, with nothing else to step on, came down to the ground. Gray-blue hair swayed gently through the hollow ground.

“Ten times is enough.”

However, now, many demons are starting to appear behind her, coming on the ground.

“Throw it back.”

“Sure.”

“Shouldn’t we also look at this on the ground?”

“Not required.”

Berserk declared, throwing the Crusher once again.

“I’ll take care of the ground, so you only worry about the sky.”

What is new in the hand that threw the crusher is the new subspace bag that was received from the wizard. Whoosh. Dozens of weapons that I had purchased for short-term use fell out of my pocket.

* * *

[What area are you staying in, Mr. Hawkeye?]

Hawkeye grinned as he looked at the pink woman in front of him.

“I’m near the intersection of Cast and Timato streets.”

I want to kill him right now by sticking an arrow in his chest. I don’t know how they recreated it, but I want to rip out the skin on his face that stimulates my memory. I want to throw them into a pit that is located at the bottom of the devil’s hometown so that they can never rise again.

I would like to do it if given a reason.

“What about Mr. Asphodel?”

[I’m on Tarata Street.]

But what if it’s a person? What if all of this is his misunderstanding and the other person is really an innocent person?

“Oh there. “It would be bad for public safety.”

[It can’t be helped. [My skills are lacking.]

After killing Tanya, I swore with Crusher. Let’s not touch civilians, at least not those whose crimes have been confirmed.

I don’t want to break that promise. Since the only person left to him is Crusher, he doesn’t want to let Crusher go either.

“So, you said you were an adventurer?”

[yes. Compared to Mr. Hawkeye, his skills are shameful.]

However, even when I soaked him in Crusher holy water, there was no reaction. So what should I do now?

“You’ll make better money if you become a mercenary!”

[Mercenaries… are often involved in crime. Oh, of course, I’m not saying Hawkeye is bad.]

How do I come up with a reason to kill him?
