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

Episode 449 We Will Be Blessed (6)

“You’re staying here because you don’t have money to move?”

“okay. But if you go out to the city now, things are sure to be a little messy. “I tried to get to the top, but they weren’t getting in or out easily.”

“Shouldn’t you have told me what it was? “If Master Nari knew, he would have given me a room in the magic tower.”

“I already got the offer. But what shame would I have to accept that?”

Windson opened the window to allow Deathbringer access and took out his pet liquor bottle that he always carried with him. The alcohol in the bottle, made of metal, is extremely cold thanks to this damn weather. It was one of the few advantages of the North.

“If you put it that way, I’d be a shameless person too.”

“No, you have a lot to do. “I’m just a guy who tried to return the favor but got caught.”

He swallowed a sip of cold drink and let out a loud sound. It’s cold when it touches your tongue and hot when it goes down your throat. This is alcohol.

“still.”

“are you okay. are you okay. And thanks to the occasional adventurer who visits, no one here touches me.”

“Are you coming?”

“okay.”

I guess that’s why I visit it every other day because it’s about the size of a door and has a nice-looking exterior. Thanks to this, the number of foreigners arguing has decreased significantly.

There must have been one or two people from the back alleys who had no backs, but even those people didn’t want to be picked on by someone who was presumed to be a knight.

“Whether I did it knowingly or not… I’m grateful.”

“If you were me, you would probably have known.”

“I guess so?”

Otherwise, why would he make the suggestion in front of everyone, “Why don’t you come into the magic tower or castle and just hang out here?” And that over and over again.

As a slight side effect, I was treated as ‘a special type who can sleep in a comfortable place following the driver, but doesn’t follow the guide’, but it was okay in terms of taking care of my personal safety.

Windson chuckled.

“But why are you wandering around here again? “It’s the street I stay in, but it’s quite ugly here.”

“Well, to a guy like me, even if the alley is ugly, it’s no different from a cozy fireplace. So don’t worry.”

He took another sip of his drink and held the bottle out towards the Deathbringer. Deathbringer waved his hand and expressed his refusal.

“Is that so?”

“It’s okay, I’m more worried about Baramson Nari. “Do you know that people are disappearing one by one in the city these days?”

“Oh no?”

I’ve heard all kinds of stories from adventurers, but I’ve never heard anything like that in particular. Windson’s head tilted.

“I knew so.”

“Did something happen? Now that I think about it, the adventurer said he might not be able to come for a while, and he hasn’t been coming for a few days…” “

Oh, that’s probably because of his studies and research. “They’re being ripped off by my wizards.”

Deathbringer immediately denied it. If so, I’m glad. So what’s really going on? Windson’s head was filled with questions.

“The missing persons matter is a different matter…”

Luckily, Deathbringer explained everything one by one before Baramson’s curiosity filled his mind. His mouth opened wide as he heard the whole story.

“It’s an absolutely terrible story!”

Sailors are already prone to superstitions, so an incident like this is so stupid. It’s really the worst. Windson’s body trembled while holding both of his forearms.

“I really hate creepy stories like this!”

“No, I saw the corpse golem just fine, so why is this story so scary?”

“Something that exists and something that may or may not exist are two different things! And the corpse golem is definitely a demon, but I don’t even know if it’s a demon or something!”

You can just look at something that exists and accept it and think, ‘Oh, that’s what it is,’ but that’s not the case with ghost stories told through stories. Since I didn’t know how it was exaggerated and distorted, I was scared because my imagination was needlessly inflated.

“They even go around at night and eat people… How did you sleep from today?”

“It’ll be okay as long as you don’t go out, I guess.”

“Don’t say it’s probably! “Say confidence!”

“No, how can I be sure of that? “I couldn’t even properly identify the culprit.”

“Oh really…!”

The wind hand was trembling as it covered its head, already imagining various things. Really, this creepy story was the worst.

smart.

“Waaaaaaah!”

“Wow! Why are you screaming all of a sudden?! “I was even more surprised because of you!!”

At that time, their door rang loudly, and Wind Hand screamed in fright, and Deathbringer, who was startled again by Wind Hand’s scream, also trembled.

“…What’s going on?”

The person who was confused during this process was the inn owner who simply knocked.

“Oh no. But what happened…”

Listening to the innkeeper’s shaky voice, Baramson consoled his heart. Rattling. When I calmed down my startled heart and opened the door, I saw a large, distracted innkeeper filling the hallway.

“The driver has arrived.”

“Adventurer?”

There is only one case where an innkeeper says this. Windhand looked back and forth between the Deathbringer and the inn owner behind him, then scratched his head.

“Thank you for telling me.”

I don’t know why the adventurer came at this time, but it’s better than a ghost visiting me. He motioned for the Deathbringer to come and followed the shrugged innkeeper.

“Wind hand.”

As expected, there was a real adventurer downstairs.

* * *

“It’s been a few days… Have you been with the Deathbringer?”

“Uh oh. We met by chance. Um… is it okay to say we ran into each other?”

“…well?”

“…?”

Well, how on earth did the two of you meet, so you have doubts about the word ‘encountered’?

I looked back and forth between the vaguely smiling expressions of Windson and Deathbringer, then took my body away from the wall.

“Anyway, it turned out well. “We both had business to attend to.”

“To us?”

“Are you talking about me too?”

“okay. So, do you two have time?”

I tried to remember where the pubs around here were that were delicious and asked about their conditions. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the answer is OK. It was a very good start.

“How did you know about this place?”

“Every time you meet me, you wander around here.”

“This place is the best.”

It’s a bit pricey, but this place is the best in terms of hygiene and taste. The employees didn’t argue or flirt unnecessarily.

“Tell me what I want to eat. But don’t order too much.”

If you want to eat something delicious for dinner, you shouldn’t eat too much. Although that was what I meant, the two people widened their eyes.

“Can’t you just order as much as you want? Did I perhaps eat too much? no money?”

“I am Nari. “You knew how to say something like that.”

“I don’t know what kind of misunderstanding you two have…”

When it comes to money, we are abundant again. Because the archmages took turns giving pocket money.

“I was planning to ask you to have dinner with me, but if I eat too much now, I won’t be able to eat much dinner, so I only said that.”

“Ah… then that’s right.”

“You mean dinner?”

“okay. “Because today could be the last.”

After all, I’m a bit confused. I dryly explained the real reason I had called them. It wasn’t that he was dry because he didn’t want to show any emotion, but rather he came out unusually calm because it was something he had been saying all day.

“…last?”

“….”

But for some reason, the two looked shocked. It wasn’t the reaction I expected.

Why are the two of you acting like that again? Oh, come to think of it, you didn’t tell Baramson that you were leaving tomorrow, right?

“Because we are scheduled to leave for Ma Station tomorrow.”

“What what?? already?”

“okay.”

However, even if it was because I didn’t know about the Wind Hand, why is there a Deathbringer? I looked closely at his pale complexion and moved my lips.

“Originally, we should avoid things like parties before the battle in order to avoid losing discipline, but… the thought of us breaking up like this made me feel very empty. So I tried to be a little stubborn.”

“What kind of stubbornness are you! If it was the discipline that could be solved with that, he wouldn’t have been selected as a candidate to be deployed in the first place. And you need to loosen up a bit. “I was so nervous until now.”

“is it.”

“okay.”

I tried to choose words to cause as little shock as possible, but it didn’t look like I was very successful.

I caught a glimpse of Deathbringer, who was speechless, and Windhand, who responded without noticing it.

“Anyway, don’t think that I was too stubborn about having a party. “Because you’re okay with that.”

“Right. thanks.”

“What’s a thank you for… so where are you going to hold the party?”

“The main forces cannot vacate the 2nd expansion district just to have a party, so we will hold a brief event there. By the same token, there will be no alcohol and it won’t be open late at night. “Would you please come to such a boring party?”

“What an obvious thing! “I would have been disappointed if you hadn’t called me!”

Baramson laughed and leaned fully against the back of the chair.

“So, be sure to throw a party when you come back. I don’t even want a grand party thrown by Seongju or anything like that. Just like now, it’s like a small party we can throw together. “I will participate as much as I want.”

At the same time, he used the party as an excuse to wish for my return.

“For your information, just don’t invite me to the demon lord-slaying party. “I will be permanently attached to this city until you call me.”

You know I get cold, right? You must let me go back to my hometown. Normally, I would have smiled and promised that I would do that, but today it sounded very meaningless.

“…Why are you looking like that? Promise me as quickly as you did when you slayed the dragon before. “Otherwise, it will give you the strange experience of a 50-year-old person making noises?”

“…I’m sorry.”

I, too, would like to promise you a hundred times over, but… I smiled awkwardly, thinking about the awkwardness of my body.

“Hey buddy. “You don’t think about failure before you even set sail.”

“No, the reason I can’t promise is not because I’m considering the possibility of failure.”

“then?”

“My… my hometown is a bit far away. “Once you go there, you can’t come back.”

“…hey.”

“By the way, I am definitely not talking about the afterlife.”

Without speaking, I suddenly remembered a comment I had made to Baramson before. Roughly speaking, ‘You have at least left your hometown.’ Was it like this? It’s really nice to be misunderstood because it goes hand in hand with what I just said.

“I… I thought it was gone. But God told me that I was mistaken and that I could go back there.”

My karma is sky high, really.

“Oh… really? Then you—”

“You will return to your hometown.”

I tried to get my words together and looked at Baramson’s expression. Fortunately, his expression brightened as if the misunderstanding had been resolved.

“I will go to the place where my family and friends I thought I would never see again are.”

“…You definitely said it wasn’t the afterlife?”

“okay. “I swear to God, I’m not going to them by dying.”

It is possible to go there even if this body dies, but I want to go there while keeping this body alive, so it is not wrong to say that. I comforted the wind with those vague words and lowered my eyelids slightly.

“However, the reason I couldn’t promise you is because I can’t specify the timing for returning to my hometown.”

“why?”

“It is difficult to explain why. Just know that it is so.”

Actually, I was thinking of explaining what the code is to Baramson, but I think it would be better not to. There are too many people around… I think the story would be too long if I even said that.

Above all, I think Deathbringer will faint when he hears this situation one more time.

“Of course, if possible, I will try to delay my return home. However, it’s not up to me to decide whether that will happen or not… so I can’t make any promises. sorry.”

So I roughly summarized the situation.

“no. If that’s the case, there’s nothing you can do. “Because hometown is… important. Yes.”

Fortunately, Baramson was convinced by that alone.

“thank you for understanding.”

Only then did I feel at ease.
