Chapter 499
Episode 499. Only after moving away from
the Hero’s Magic Tower.
…Sleep.
Camilla loosened her clenched fists.
“Are you really without blood or tears?”
Otherwise, you’re really great.
“To the Commander-in-Chief….”
Camilla thought of Ho-yeol.
How could he spit out harsh words in Jesse’s face?
I feel like my heart will break with just a few words.
-“No matter how much I think about it, I can’t forgive the traitor.”
There was one reason why Camilla rejected Jesse with an excuse that wasn’t in her mind.
The sharp eyes turned towards the magic tower itself.
I didn’t want to spark a fire in Jesse, who knew nothing.
‘Rox….’
After Dmitry’s death.
Rox has changed.
He did not stop the harsh whipping towards himself.
-“Aren’t you overdoing it, Rox?”
-“I can’t help it. “I have to do Dmitri’s part as well.”
-“It’s Mihwa. “Dmitri didn’t live that faithfully.”
-“Is that so? haha.”
Because I have been watching Rox for a long time. I also knew that the last laugh was not sincere. Nevertheless, I thought Rox would be able to overcome it.
Camilla laughed bitterly.
“In that sense… I guess I’m an accomplice too.”
A time when Arcana was just a game.
Rox had a strong competitive spirit that was unimaginable today. It was a mistake to think that the Rox I had seen so far would use their competitive spirit as a driving force.
-“Everyone was great.”
Immediately after the Great Monster Raid.
-“Everyone was very shiny.”
Rox said that with empty eyes.
Looking back on their performance, I felt that way. In particular, Nam Taemin and Hisagi Leonie, who were considered to be on a similar level to Rox. The growth and performance of the three people was dazzling.
“Even back then, I…”
I comforted him indifferently.
-“It’s all thanks to the class quest~”
Rox’s class [Knight].
One of the classes whose class quests are unknown.
At least I shouldn’t have added that…
-“If only the class quests pop up, Rox, you’ll be able to catch up~”
Even though I know that class quests are not that easy to complete… I do class quests more than anyone else. I shouldn’t have given you the class quest so easily when you were longing for it…
but I’m not the least responsible.
“…I’m sorry Jesse.”
What happens next?
Even without mentioning the field of view of the class [Bow Master], it seemed to be clearly visible. Even if you stormed the empty Bohemian guild house and took over the command room, winning the immediate siege.
Rox’s journey will end there.
‘Because Yugweed’s memorial service is over.’
The Bohemian Guild will return to the Guild House.
And I share the same ideas as those bohemians.
The guilds of the Allied Crusade will help.
‘If it’s Shining, I might be able to last a few days.’
Shining, Unification of the World and Great Union.
Now that the unification of the world has collapsed, Shining is one of the only super guilds. But Camilla was aware. Guild Master Rox’s control over the guild has been weakened.
‘I guess that’s why he contacted me instead of following Rox.’
Rox is on a rampage.
Perhaps it would be best to resolve this situation through Rox’s own actions rather than Shining’s. In reality, it was like that. But Camilla couldn’t turn away.
“You know, Rox. “Jeong is so scary, isn’t it?”
Now that Dmitry left first.
I guess I can’t leave you alone.
The speed that comes from the high [Agility] stat.
Susssseu.
Camilla easily jumped over the building and arrived at the Shining Seoul branch. And we caught Rox attacking the Bohemian branch in the building across the street.
“…!”
And then I noticed a strangely foreign feeling.
blond hair.
Decadent eyes.
A expressionless expression that rarely changes.
It was all Rox.
“Rox…?”
fluttering.
“…What are those wings for you?”
For some reason.
Wings were sprouting from Rox’s back.
The wings of a black beast.
*
I looked at the players busily moving around.
‘Rocks.’
Shining stabbed me in the back.
It was quite unexpected. That’s because Shining has cooperated with the Allied Crusade to a great extent. Why didn’t you participate in the Great Monster Raid recently?
“This may also be thanks to not being negligent in research.”
Yes, I remember seeing it on NetTube. An edited video of the process of players trapped in a prototype crack escaping its interior through interaction with reality. There was definitely Rox in that video.
‘…Hmm.’
Although he is a person who no longer exists in reality or on the Arcana continent.
If Liu Wujunchun had hit him in the back, he would have immediately shook his head.
That bastard would get away with something like this.
But Rox’s actions.
In fact, it would be difficult to even say that he stabbed me in the back.
Marcelo opened his mouth.
“To me, it just seems like a meaningless act.”
Surely that’s right, Marcelo?
I can only see it that way.
The entire Shining didn’t move, it was just Rox alone.
A murmur is heard.
“Rox has always been the enemy. The ranking is still higher than Guyber, but now it’s easy to get into the top 10, right? “What can I do on my own?”
“It’s literally just opening up an empty house.”
“Anyway, do you think we can get over this?”
“When I saw the Bohemian Guild earlier, everyone was really upset.”
Besides, this was reality.
Through the eyes of CCTV citizens and smartphone cameras.
This means that Rox’s every move was conveyed.
‘Are you sure. Rox single-handedly attacked the Bohemian branch.’
Even after taking over the Bohemian Guild House.
Shining Guild members did not join Rox.
It’s natural.
Because Rox is not a [monarch].
‘You can’t forcibly brainwash loyalty like Liu Wujunchun did.’
What that means is simple.
Soon.
This means that Rox, who is alone, will be subdued.
I spoke secretly to Granfell from within.
‘So there’s no need for us to come forward?’
I haven’t even become the owner of Seoul yet.
There’s no reason to go crazy already, right, Granfell?
And even at times like this, you need to get some rest.
That I can endure it even when I have to work like a dog later.
Eventually my mouth opens.
“It’s probably too early to start thinking about random things.”
Anyway, the reason is strict.
“Memorials for those who left the Magic Tower first will be held for one day during the Arcana Continent Time. Even considering the time difference between reality and the Arcana Continent, it is still not enough.”
Yes, according to the Magic Tower’s strict rules.
There wasn’t enough mourning for Yugweed yet.
Therefore, I sat upright and stayed in my seat.
‘Like I said, this isn’t our business.’
Conflict between rocks and bohemians.
For me to step in and mediate.
This means that there is no reason to stop mourning for Yugweed and move on.
“Your words are correct.”
Marcelo nodded and continued speaking.
“Then may I ask about your next schedule?”
What is the next schedule?
“No other than that, now that this city is connected to the Arcana Continent, I would like to ask whether it would be acceptable to grant complete freedom of access to all magicians in the Magic Tower.”
Complete freedom of climbing for wizards?
Isn’t there anything that can’t be done?
No, actually, it’s me who welcomes you with both hands!
‘How many applications do you have to submit per day? That’s…!’
However, for our Granfell.
You did not consider my personal convenience at all.
I had no choice but to ask back.
“I think there must be a more specific reason.”
“The magic of twilight that was felt on the Arcana continent can now be felt in this city. We judged that the magical achievements of the members of the Magic Tower could advance in an environment overflowing with the magic of twilight.”
“It certainly makes sense.”
Also Marcelo.
‘Do you understand the concept of buffs now?’
Unlike me, who scribbled down notes in a notebook to understand 『Magic』, you are quickly absorbing the knowledge of this world. My lips are falling.
“I will consider it positively.”
Review positively for a moment…?
I heard that from the manager.
I’ve never seen anything passed…!
‘Please believe me, Granfell. Please save me.’
It was the moment I was pleading with in my heart.
“But there is something I need to take care of before that.”
I spit it out without realizing it.
‘…Is there anything more important than division of work?’
I guess this is it.
I had completely forgotten about Lee Ho-yeol.
It seems that there was something that Granfell never forgot.
“I must enter the demon world.”
“…!”
Marcelo’s pupils widened.
There’s nothing to be so embarrassed about, Marcelo.
I was equally surprised.
‘Yes, I did.’
Even putting aside the reunion with Paimon of the Demon World.
For me, I have to find Yong Seong-rak’s body.
There was an obligation that was not an obligation.
It must be because I saw Yong Seong-rak’s pride with my own eyes.
I added so that Marcelo would not misunderstand.
“There’s nothing to worry about, Marcelo.”
“But the Demon Realm…!”
“Even if it’s the Demon World, it won’t take that long. This means that there is no need to modify the scheduled regular meeting schedule or roundtable schedule for me.”
How obsessively have I been keeping my time commitments?
More than any other words.
Marcelo quickly understands and nods.
“If you need any help, please let me know.”
“It was helpful,” I answered confidently, as always.
“Even if it’s your first time, it’s enough to do it on your own.”
That’s enough.
I’m already thinking about entering the demon world.
I can’t breathe.
That’s because I still wasn’t confident of victory when I faced a high-ranking demon lord. Of course, if you intentionally cause [Heaven and World’s Solitary Child] to go berserk or borrow the power of [Darkening]…
‘You might still be able to win at least Paimon.’
However, Paimon owed Antonium’s debt without realizing it, and Paimon was not the only high-ranking demon lord in the demon world. Even if Paimon tolerated me, I couldn’t guarantee that other high-ranking demon kings would remain calm.
‘My life is in danger, so why not come with me?’
My current cheeky declaration is all for your benefit.
Did you understand my inner meaning?
Marcelo nodded.
“If it is your will, I will wait.”
Anyway, I’m touched that you even said that.
A heart for each other.
It seems like the scent of humans is finally coming from the Magic Tower.
That was the moment when I was about to nod my head.
“…for a moment.”
The players’ wreaths are still being offered to this day.
Suddenly, those who had finished paying tribute to Yugweed were shocked.
But the conversation I heard was somehow unusual.
“You were alive?!”
“Who is so surprised?”
“Are you asking because you don’t know? Look closely!”
I didn’t mean to eavesdrop.
Thanks to my developed hearing, I can clearly hear even the whispering conversations of players. Thanks to this, I learned why players unintentionally lowered their voices.
“This bastard is the unification of the world. “He was in the same group as me.”
There was indeed a reason to whisper. In the past, as the Unification of the World ran wild, the players who were part of the Unification of the World had no choice but to receive unfavorable attention.
But just by coming to the Magic Tower to pay condolences, their innocence and pride must have been revealed. Therefore, I could not ignore the conversation between the former members of the Unification Guild.
A man scratching his head.
“what. What was its name? It was very unusual…”
“…wasn’t it one of the five stars?”
“It was a dog or a cow or a five-star, but what…! “Oh, I got it!”
I was startled by the next name.
“Yongseongrak! “The one facing Rox here is Yongseongrak!”
…Yongseongrak?
Because being dead isn’t enough.
He who fell into the demon world stood in Rox’s way…?
*
I feel dizzy.
Vision is confused and hearing is blurred.
Rox belatedly recognized the voice shimmering in his ears.
“…Rocks!”
What is it, Camilla?
“Camilla I’m fine.”
After answering that, Rox looked at his surroundings. The Seoul branch of Guild Bohemian was devastated. As soon as I entered the empty command room, a halo of light blinked in my blurred vision.
[Attack: Shining Victory]
[Guild House: Bohemian has been conquered.]
[Your name begins to echo in Seoul.]
…Okay.
quest.
He was clearly on a quest.
‘It was a strange quest.’
But why am I now?
Are you on this strange quest?
Rox grabbed his throbbing head.
Then I looked at my surroundings a little more closely.
His body was floating in the air without resistance.
class [article].
There is no such thing as a levitation skill.
Rox let out a sigh.
“What… is it a dream?”
At that time, a voice came from the front.
“It’s not a dream.”
“…what?”
“Man, you have fallen.”
Corruption.
A newly known status ailment.
This was the moment when Player Rox’s knowledge came to light.
“Am I corrupted…?”
Rox’s vision flickered again.
This time it was a quest again.
[Class Quest: Path of the Hero]
“…!”
However, this time it was a class quest that I had been desperately hoping for.
Life returned to Rox’s eyes.
No matter what the man in front of me is talking about.
Rox’s ears couldn’t hear it.
“Mixed race. Because they are blood mixed, they are imperfect, but strong at the same time. It’s truly bizarre. “If it weren’t for you, this would have been knowledge I wouldn’t have acquired even after eons.”
This moment.
For Rox.
Because only the quest goal was visible.
– Defeat the ‘worst devil’ and prove your qualifications as a warrior. (In progress)
The quest goal begins to blink more and more intensely.
Rox was able to intuit it.
The man in front of me.
That’s what the quest goal says.
It is clear that he is the worst devil.
‘Be sure to catch it.’
Dmitry Camilla, even for you.
Sigh.
It was the moment when Rox spread wings he didn’t even know he had.
This time in my ear.
A sound was heard that could not be overlooked.
Again.
At the same time, Rox’s face suddenly distorted.
“Get the hell away from me!”
.
.
.
Get away from me?
Rocks.
Are you talking so harshly that it makes me sad…?
