Chapter 311
“I’ve seen him once before. He was an explorer with very useful words.”
“An explorer who betrayed his clan… This makes me a little interested.”
After my words were over, the captain and Kagureas exchanged a few words.
All I heard was meaningful.
Are you interested?
To hear such words coming out of Orculis’s leader’s mouth made me feel uncomfortable.
But I took my eyes off them.
And I stared at one place.
“…….”
Ravi, a woman in a fancy dress.
Her lips were parting slightly as she looked at me aggressively.
His eyes were filled with only horror.
“How the hell did that……” Seeing him
stammering to the end, he seemed really surprised to the point of fainting.
But there is no room for sympathy.
Because this is a world of cold competition.
He who misses an opportunity cannot become a beast.
Therefore…
“It’s ridiculous. There are still less than 10 people who know this story…….”
Laughing at the confused Ravi.
And like a child who grew up seeing only the good side of the world.
I said.
“You’re young.”
It’s my actual age. There’s a lot more there, but I know something.
The other side knows nothing about me.
“…….”
Ravi’s reaction was instantaneous.
tightly closed lips.
His face flushed and his gaze fixed on me, as if he was resentful of being treated like a child.
And one question deeply buried in it.
“You are…”
Ravi immediately vomited his doubts.
“Who are you?”
name, identity, whatever. It seemed like it wouldn’t matter if they knew even a little bit about my identity.
A very comprehensive question was thrown at me.
“…….”
The other members watched the situation with interest without interrupting the conversation.
It’s just that I couldn’t ask first because of face.
They must have wondered who I was as well.
Perhaps the question Ravi just asked was one that scratched their itch.
But…
‘Okay, the atmosphere is perfect.’
The answer I would give was already decided.
It may feel a bit cliché now, but being cliché also means that I’ve worked through it well up until now.
I took my luck at ease.
“Well, there’s nothing I can’t tell you.”
It was immediately apparent that the level of concentration of the members increased significantly at those words.
really? Are you really trying to tell me anything?
The faces of such anticipation.
As if appreciating those expressions, I slowly looked at each one and continued.
“If only those who deserve it.”
“Huh……”
My words resonated across the round table, and at the same time, the captain let out an exclamation.
“Prove it to hear your name? Do we deserve to hang out with you?”
Muscular middle-aged Kagureas asked curiously.
And I wasn’t silent.
“Fortunately, I understood correctly.”
Rather, he affirmed his words.
Isn’t it the era of self-PR these days?
Why don’t you be humble? nothing comes out
“…Where did a person like this appear?”
At my arrogant words, the Ruinist burst into laughter.
Looking back, I think it’s the first time I’ve seen her smile.
I was just sipping tea like I was bored most of the time.
‘Certainly, with this, the aggro was properly attracted—’
As I was smiling behind the mask without knowing the satisfactory result, I suddenly felt a gaze from the side.
It was Auril Gavis.
‘It’s burdensome.’
He was staring blankly at me.
again this time.
‘What is he really doing?’
with such doubts.
***
Although there was a brief incident, the meeting continued with Auril Garvis’s moderation.
“Three months ago, an envoy from the king visited the lord of Noark Castle. Unfortunately, they were completely silent, so we don’t know what happened between them.”
The leader, who was the last turn of this round, spit out such information and received the green light.
“Hmm! It’s strange. I think this is the first time we’ve had direct interaction with the royal family.”
“Maybe that’s why…”
Unlike the Annihilator muttering meaningful words, it wasn’t very meaningful information to me.
What would you do if you knew the politics of 20 years ago?
There is only one thing I can know from this information.
The royal family, as well as everyone in the know, were aware of the existence of the underground city.
“Then, the next step is…”
After one round, Auril Gavis glanced at me.
And, as if regretting it, he licked his lips.
“I’ll have to do it again, except for that friend this time. Is there anyone you want to do first?”
It was Kagureas who raised his hand.
“I’ll do it first.”
“Oh, is that so?”
“I thought it would be easier to do it first. There was something I wanted to say.”
“Then try.”
Soon after, the muscle middle-aged Kagureas spit out the information, and the second round began.
“That…… I got another Genesis Noble Phantasm.”
Information that is too shocking to say while scratching one’s cheeks.
My head went blank for a moment.
After 20 years, it will disappear completely and you will not even know where it is.
But ‘I got one more’?
‘So you’re saying that you originally had at least one?’
The flagship almost came out without my knowledge, but I barely endured it.
But wasn’t I the only one who was shocked?
“What? Is that true!”
The Annihilator jumped out of his seat and rose.
Ravi was also excited.
“Eh, which family’s Noble Phantasm is the Genesis?”
“I can’t tell you that.”
“Then how did you get it…”
“If I were to ask how you got it… I can only say that I was lucky.”
“How lucky you are with that item…”
“Oh, don’t do that too much. To be precise, it’s close to getting the right to borrow it once when you need it later.”
Wow, this guy was really great.
It was only then that I realized that I had entered the world of deceased people.
Getting one of the Genesis treasures in the game is still quite doable. It’s enough to just break the main character’s race episode and become the chief of the tribe.
The really difficult thing is starting with the second Genesis Noble Phantasm.
You must either obtain a ‘use right’ by breaking an episode of another race, or make a fellow character a ‘tribal chief’.
And that’s what it means.
‘Isn’t there a real possibility of clearing?’
As soon as I had that thought, I glanced at Aurl Gavis.
The facial expression did not change.
In simple words, it means that these progress was known in advance.
But why did this old man call these kids ‘failures’?
“Anyway, there’s a reason I’m revealing this fact here. As Master said, we’ve been together for a long time, but we’ve never spoken openly. But now we need to change.”
While thinking about it, Kagureas continued.
“Now, I got two. The Great Dragon is dead, so if Ravi works hard, I might be able to get another one.”
“…Why are you talking about that now?”
Ravi scolded Kagureas in a harsh voice and looked at me.
However, the situation has already heard all the information to be heard.
‘Yes, he was also a dragon race.’
“I’m sorry. I think I was short of it.”
Kagureas apologized like a man and then went on with what he wanted to say.
“There are now three left. And if we sincerely work together, I think we can do something about that… What do you guys think?”
It seemed like asking everyone, but Kagureas’ gaze was fixed on the leader.
‘Oh, come to think of it, these two were fighting last time.’
In a way, it can be seen as extending a hand of reconciliation.
What would be the captain’s answer?
“…….”
His reply was silence.
In response, Kagureas opened his mouth as if persuading him.
“I know of your grudge against the King. But think rationally. Aren’t ties built in this world anyway? Think of the family you left behind—” ”
Enough.”
The leader cut off his words in a stubborn voice.
And, as if he had touched the evil, he spewed out a vicious murder.
Kagureas also wiped the smile from his face.
“As expected, it was garbage. But I thought the goal would be the same as ours.”
“…….”
“The royal family is the mysterious destination? If they want to go back, they’ll have to help themselves even more? That made me feel like an idiot if I ever did that.”
“Stop it, Kagureas…”
“But Miss Ravi didn’t hear it just now. He doesn’t have the will to go back.”
“I won’t. Or why do I still show my face here every time?”
“Isn’t that obvious? If we use them well, they will help us kill the king. The only thing we could think of was to use them as expendable items and throw them away. Isn’t it?”
When Kagureas looked at him belligerently and asked, the captain also cynically opened his mouth.
“Isn’t it the same as you hiding your true feelings?”
“what?”
“Lord Ruin Genes said he believed he could complete dimensional magic, but in reality he was collecting treasures for creation.”
“…What’s wrong with that? It’s better to have multiple methods, right?”
“But when I persuaded Lord Ruingenes, isn’t there a reason for objecting? If the goal was to collect all the Noble Phantasms of the Creation, a confrontation with the royal family would be inevitable, but then you stubbornly interfered with me.”
“Ah, that’s what you mean.”
Kagureas spoke confidently as if he had no intention of hiding it.
“Because I have a good intuition. I just got a gut feeling that you’re trash that only makes you talk slickly.”
“…….”
The captain did not open his mouth any more.
It just spews out a more powerful killing intent while facing Kagureas’ eyes.
This made me unknowingly exclaim.
‘…… The level of living is different.’
It’s a world apart from the Round Table members 20 years later.
My skin feels tingly and my breathing is heavy, even though the murder is not aimed at me.
It was when such a time continued.
“Hehe, everyone seems to have a lot of heat in their heads.”
Auril Gavis, who had been watching the whole time, intervened.
And…
“I’d better do it for today.”
threw out random words.
“Everyone go back and rest and see you next time.”
……what?
Wait a minute, you say it ends here?
Haven’t even started yet?
If you’re going to finish it, do it after a good round. I’ve been designing it for a while.
“No—”
I was just about to say something.
Flash-!
My eyes flickered like lights flickering.
And when I open my eyes again
“…Have you already been there?”
I saw Amelia’s familiar face.
Ha, you really got kicked out.
***
“How long has it been?”
“About 3 seconds after closing your eyes.”
3 seconds……
It is natural for Amelia to look at me strangely.
From his point of view, it must have been only for a moment.
It probably won’t make sense.
“ruler.”
I was thirsty and reached for the bedside table, but Amelia grabbed a cup filled with water and handed it to me.
what is this.
“Ah uh… thank you.”
Amelia awkwardly averted her gaze as I smirked and thanked her.
“So what happened inside this time?”
“Oh, that…”
After that, where should I begin explaining this?
I’ve been through too many things to tell in a nutshell, so I just told everything as it was from the beginning. I thought maybe he might find something I missed, but…
“Wait a minute, did Gavis apologize? For such an unreasonable request?”
“however?”
“…… No, continue.”
It was when the story, which started with a battle of nerves with Auril Gavis, reached the round table.
Amelia’s eyes, which had become more and more meaningful, took on a very clear light.
It was the look in his eyes that he had seen many times at the round table.
“You…what the hell are you doing in the world?”
