Chapter 199
Episode 199 Master Key (4)
The Rejuvenation Stone is on the 9th floor.
In fact, it is close to impossible to find the Resurrection Stone with just this clue.
Perhaps even the crescent moon doesn’t know that.
Because he was also a user who played this perverted game.
But wouldn’t this alone be worth the money?
“Why…”
Crescent Moon asks me, leaving her joy behind.
“Why are you doing me this favor?”
He seemed to be curious about why he couldn’t do it, but…
As an ‘investigator’, there is only one thing I can say.
“Because I think that would be fun.”
The crescent moon kept its mouth shut for a moment, as if pondering the meaning of my words, and then trembled.
“You… you are truly a frightening person.”
huh? suddenly?
I didn’t know what it meant, so I just rested my chin and looked at the crescent moon.
Then, did you feel that you made a mistake too late?
“…Forget what I just said. I said something useless. I don’t care who you are. If I can get that item, I’ll give you my soul.”
The crescent moon, chanting as if making a resolution, added self-deprecating words to the end.
“Well, that’s about my situation, you probably already know.”
It was completely incomprehensible.
no how do i know that
‘Why did he have such a misunderstanding?’
I tried to review what happened at the round table once, but I couldn’t figure out why, so I just stayed still this time.
As always, half way through.
“As expected… I guess I really knew that.”
I didn’t bother denying it.
Isn’t it a bit funny to say no in this situation?
He just changed the topic as if he was not interested.
“Now it’s my turn.”
Let’s get rid of the luck, the attention of the masks gathered.
I’m really looking forward to what I’ll tell you this time. Feeling embarrassed for some reason, I threw out one of the information I had prepared.
It’s amazing when you hear it like ‘Vandemon’, but it’s such information that it’s useless even if you know it. It wasn’t even as impactful as the ‘revival stone’.
“Fisit, I guess I knew this time too.”
Even though the gems of the round table gave off a green light, the clown gave a somewhat regretful look.
Of course, it wasn’t something I cared about.
In the first place, rather than blaming me, the clown seemed to see it as his own problem for not bringing something fun.
“If it’s okay, I’d like to continue. How is everyone?”
The rally continued even after the lap was over, as if there were as many preparations as they had rested once.
I passed the turn while spitting out similar information consistently, and then the third wheel began before I knew it.
“I’m going to miss this one last time.”
The goblin, who was the first in line, struggled through the turn with four red lights, and eventually took out a white flag.
However, even if not as much as the goblin, were the circumstances similar to all of them?
“Hmm, then I’ll have to stop here too.”
Even the fox declared abstaining, and naturally it was decided to end the rally with this wheel.
I had no regrets whatsoever.
‘I think I’ve heard everything that can be heard roughly.’
After the confrontation between Noark and the royal family, I had no idea how the situation was going, but now I have a sense of it.
It was the exact opposite of the rumors that had spread through the city.
‘As expected, the royal family is in a much more advantageous situation.’
Although the subjugation failed this time and suffered great damage, the same goes for the Underground City. Just listening to what they said, Noark’s blockade was close to feeling like a last-ditch effort.
‘It is said that a dog tag that cannot be duplicated has also been produced, so there is no need to revise the plan significantly. There doesn’t seem to be any issues that seem dangerous right now.’
I moved my gaze slowly and looked at the round table.
The green light was on for the information about Orculis that the crescent moon had just brought out.
“…… Now, only the monk remains, right?”
Naturally, the attention of the members was focused on me.
For some reason, everyone’s eyes were bright.
‘It’s just too burdensome.’
I tapped the armrest with my finger and thought for a moment.
What should be the finale?
I already had one set up, but I didn’t know if there was something more suitable for the current mood.
In fact, it wasn’t long before I came up with something suitable.
Took.
I grinned and stopped pointing my finger.
It’s not one of the pieces of information I’ve been preparing to write here, but…
“Goblin.”
“Yes yes?”
A goblin who was very flustered when I suddenly spoke to him and even stuttered.
I said looking at him.
“Come to think of it, I said that earlier. That ‘inspiration’ might be a wizard with more skill than the GM who created this community.”
“Ah ah! Yes. I did…”
The goblin blurted out his words as if he didn’t understand my intentions, while the fox was bright.
“Could this be information about the Master?”
It’s better than a goblin who doesn’t seem to know anything, but…
“Wrong.”
I ignored the fox and spoke to the goblin.
I just skipped it earlier, but as if there is one thing you guys misunderstood in a fundamental part.
“This community wasn’t created by the GM. To be precise, it’s more like a remodeling of a place that already exists.”
Like a parrot, he spit out the information he had previously heard from Baekho Lee.
At the same time, the eyes of the members gathered in one place.
A jewel embedded in the center of the Round Table.
“……It’s green.”
I wasn’t surprised because it was an expected result.
I haven’t personally checked or anything like that, but
I have no doubts about this information.
“……I thought it wasn’t made by GM.”
“Pishit, I’ve never heard of this before.”
“Then who the hell made this place?”
Members who were pouring out questions kept their mouths shut at the same time as if they had promised.
And again, I focused my attention on one place.
The only one here who can answer that question.
‘Okay, I think I was attracted to aggro well.’
In the midst of the heated silence, I spoke.
In a voice that is not expected at all.
without any emotion.
“I hope next time it will be more fun.”
I said so.
That way, you won’t come back with something more useful.
***
“I’m gone…….”
There was heavy silence for a while in the round table room where the investigator left.
It was for a simple reason indeed.
The last word he left behind.
To be precise, the emotion that was carried in that voice.
“……Are you mad at us?”
The clown snorted at the fox’s murmur.
“I think Mr. Fisht Fox hits us too high. Do you think he deserves our anger at him?”
“That’s…”
The fox, who was about to retort, kept his mouth shut.
It was because of what the master said earlier.
[If you’re like me, there’s nothing to be gained by participating here.]
A secret meeting that ordinary players don’t even know the name of. The fox has been using the information obtained here to good effect.
So, it was difficult to accept at first.
However, there was no point in denying it as long as he had heard the master’s words.
There is no advantage to the lion here.
‘Is it true that there is none at all?’
The fox let out a wry smile involuntarily.
[I hope it’s more fun next time.]
Fun.
Something that can soothe the boredom even a little.
To put it simply, mindfulness.
If there’s anything the investigator wants from this rally, that’s all.
But how have we been so far?
Even that didn’t work properly.
But to expect that he would be informed on such a subject……
“…I must have looked pathetic.”
“I guess so. That man is a different type of human than Master. Even if he resembles him a little.”
The fox tilted her head at the words of the deer antlers.
“……Resemble?”
It was the crescent moon that received her words.
“At least since he came here, I haven’t felt the Master’s absence.”
Gradually, she seemed to understand what he meant.
The Master was that special at the Round Table.
It was he who gathered the current members, and it was he who taught us valuable information and knowledge that no one else knew.
“The only difference is that you’re not the kind of person who volunteers like Master. Fisit.”
“Volunteering…”
“Why aren’t you wrong? Or does Mr. Fox really think that Master created this place to get information?”
The fox made no objection.
no i couldn’t
Because everything was as the clown said.
The Master always knew everything.
And he generously informed me of this.
It’s like being a teacher in a classroom with students.
“Isn’t that why Mr. Fox follows Master like that in the first place?”
This time the fox did not deny it either.
“…That’s right. If I hadn’t thought of him as a volunteer, I wouldn’t have thought of him as a benefactor.”
It is all thanks to Master that this meeting was maintained.
That’s how it looked just a while ago.
Until the investigators arrived, there were only four fixed members. This is because the attendance rate of the members drastically decreased as soon as the master disappeared.
The rest of the members, like goblins, came in from time to time to check if the master had returned and then went back.
‘Perhaps the rest will continue to participate if they know that this kind of person is new. Just like Mr. Goblin did.’
For some reason, I felt strange.
However, the fox put those feelings behind and focused on the conversations that the remaining members were having.
The topic is the master who appeared after a year.
No, strictly speaking, it was a conversation about a lion who seemed to be acquainted with such a master.
“I’m sure the lion is someone we’ve all heard of at least once. If the Master can be said to be a ‘great’ person, it’s really only one of them.”
“Well, the notorious ‘corpse collector’ was also treated as a child.”
“Little boy… Yes, I’ve said that before. Fishit.”
The time of reasoning that came without fail this time.
“The information you said at the end is also significant. It’s not the GM who created this community……. How could he even know that?”
“Well, maybe you know the GM.”
“…with the GM, who only rumors about it?”
“It’s true of us, but I’m not the one who called the master inspiration. There must be a world we don’t know about.”
“I see…”
the clown asked at the goblin’s genuine admiration.
“But why are you doing that today? No matter what I said last time, he took it as if he was leaping.” “…At that time, wasn’t it when I didn’t know
much about him
?”
The goblin sarcastically cleared his throat and averted his gaze.
At that moment, the deer antlers opened its mouth.
“Did I feel it more than that?”
“What are you talking about?”
“I felt suspicious when Master left.”
.”
“Hold on, both of you. What is your will? Then, did you say that you wrote a message?”
The fox was genuinely surprised.
“Message” refers to an ability that can only be used in this space, the spiritual world. It is a kind of telepathy. The
principle is similar to living. ”
I thought
that was difficult even for the master to use…”
“Whoops, what else is the fox surprised about? Then you didn’t think that the lion would be able to do that too?”
“…….”
The tone was kind of annoying, but there was nothing to say.
Thinking about it calmly, it wasn’t that surprising, as the clown said. It must be strange that
he can’t use ‘message
. ‘
The two of you must have had something to talk about privately.”
“Even the clown doesn’t know what kind of conversation it is?”
“Isn’t that natural? The Master and the lion are no different from monsters!”
The fox couldn’t hide his regret and licked his lips.
If only he could read the conversation between the two, it might have been a clue to what kind of situation the Master was in… “Kick, but it’s not like there was no income at all.”
”
Yes? Income?”
The fox came to his senses at the clown’s words.
The clown laughed as if he liked her posture with his ears pricked up. ”
I didn’t feel it at all.”
“Can you please explain a bit more?”
“The lion’s will! I tried really hard, but I didn’t feel it at all. Unlike the master, who could even faintly feel it.”
The fox, who had some knowledge of the message,
froze
as it was
. yo. this. That means…”
On behalf of the fox who couldn’t bear to speak, the clown spat out the ‘income’ he had earned today.
“Yes. Perhaps Mr. Saja is a monster worse than the Master.”
Everyone
was speechless at the truly shocking guess.
That’s how the silence
started .
Could it have gone? Then, explain why the clown didn’t feel any emotions……. Oh no, why do you see it that way? that’s just what i did. What I said. I didn’t really think so!”
After that, the silence continued for a while.
