Insanely-Talented Player

Episode 132

The bloody saint was there.

The pure white heavy armor had already been transformed into a crimson business suit, and every time she took a step, a sea of blood spread out endlessly. The swarm of

bats that filled the blood-red sky

engulfed the Nazi zombies like a swarm of locusts, and after the swarm of bats passed by, there was nothing left there.

Cha-bak-cha-bak.

Every time I took a step, I could hear the sound of blood pooling under my feet.

The power of Maria, a player who made an apostle's contract with the Blood Lord and became a true blood relative and high-ranking vampire.

Along with the mythical skill 《Thorn Ball Descent》, the blood magic deck given to her revealed its power one by one.

Even the players of the Order of Relief Knights, who had gone through countless battlefields with her, could not hide their bewilderment in front of that sight.

But that was it.

The back of the player Maria, walking gracefully, with blood and darkness flying around.

Golden hair fluttering fleetingly amidst a hail of bullets, there was no doubt that it was the back of a saint.

In addition to being a saint, she is the pinnacle of players and the highest ranker, known as one of the ten heroes.

He is always ahead of his subordinates and willingly presents himself as the first line and standard-bearer of the battle line. Every time, golden hair flutters and shines in the most noble way in the world.

To begin with, they are also high-level players. I'm not a beginner who can easily accept changes depending on the deck's properties.

“Vive la France!”

Amid the blood and darkness, the players of the Order of the Relief Knights began to advance all at once.

To reclaim another homeland from the hands of Nazi Germany.

And while watching their fight as if it were someone else's business, Lord Mikhail smiled quietly. With men and women in suits remaining silent behind him.

“I never imagined that a single player would already reach our territory.”

Likewise, towards the power of the tower, the head of the witches' coven, and the one with the name of ‘Witcher King'.

“Ah, are you feeling a little scared now? “I wonder if a tiger raised this cub?”

“That can’t be right.”

Lord Mikhail coldly shook his head at Yooseong’s words.

“Look at this world. There are overflowing with disgusting dead people who have lost their vitality and have no blood to shed. “Isn’t that disgusting?”

“Wow, I never thought I would live and see a vampire cursing a zombie.”

Hearing that, Yoosung was dumbfounded and responded.

“I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of homophobia. “What’s the use of talking about who’s fresher among the same invoices?”

“...you can’t even imagine how much patience your rudeness will require of us.”

Lord Mikhail frowned and continued.

“Even more so because you have escaped the shackles of being a player and entered our territory.”

“Are you kidding me?”

Yoosung asked back, and the expression of one of the blood relatives behind Mikhail distorted.

“Oh my, why do relatives who are on good terms have to frown like that? So, have you decided on where to get a job? “Is there anyone you want to marry?”

Nevertheless, the shooting star did not pay any attention and pretended to be rain. Immediately after, the patience of one of the blood relatives finally reached its critical point.

The message resonated.

「According to the rules, the intervention of a transcendent power of type M or higher on the Kardashov scale is not permitted in the world 13212.”] [Tower Power:

Ruler warns!]

「The message in question After receiving the report, if the protocol is not followed, we will directly intervene.”]

“What is this?”

It was a message full of content that I could not understand at all.

“As you can see, they are the enforcers of the rules that govern us.”

“The Lord of the Game...”

“Yes, it is the ‘force’ he has under his command.”

I could intuit it.

“And no matter how much you mock and belittle the Lord of the Game in the world of the players...

said Lord Mikhail.

“At least in this area, it would be best not to look at him too lightly.”

With those words, Lord Mikhail turned his back. As soon as he saw the message, he disappeared from the world inside the tower without any hesitation.

“...I have to leave.”

At that moment, Lily, behind Yoosung's back, opened her mouth with a frightened expression.

Yoosung was not a fool either. Even if he has reached the peak as a player, as Lord Mikhail said, as a being who belongs to the world of the Tower, he is nothing more than a novice.

“okay.”

Yoosung nodded and then turned his head. Here was a saint who did her duty and fought to protect her country and for what she believed was right.

I thought about saying a few words to her and leaving, but then I shook my head and turned away.

“Let’s go, Lily.”

“huh.”

[Would you like to leave the Tower of Alternate History, Tier 11? Y/N]

Immediately after, the new abilities given to Yoosung as the power of the tower and the King of Magicians showed their power.

(The One Who Walks in the World of Towers).

The reason Yoosung was here was to help Maria. However, that did not mean protecting Mary by her side from start to finish.

Just giving him a push on his back was enough.

Just as Mary had once done so in front of the wandering Yoosung.

Because the two were not so weak to each other that they had to unilaterally sacrifice themselves to protect the other.

A few days after that.

“Ah, you came back just in time.”

The King of Heroes, who was leisurely watching TV and sipping beer, greeted Maria after she finished conquering the 11th tier tower. I even took off my player gear and put on baggy training clothes.

And next to Yoosung were Lily, who was watching TV together, and Black Mangi, who was purring in Lily's arms.

“Would you like to watch NetOlix together?”

Maria was dumbfounded by those words and kept her mouth shut.

“Do you even know what that means in English?”

“Oh, of course. Do you think I asked without knowing that?”

Yoosung answered calmly and then turned his head around.

On TV, a human and a vampire were kissing, swearing their taboo love.

“Oh my gosh. Code 19 issued.”

— Nyaaaang!

Yoosung said while sipping beer. Then, in Lily's arms, a black bird scattered the sea of shadows, and an ocean predator rose up and swallowed Lily.

The gray whale's maw, made of darkness, opened wide beneath Lily's feet.

“...

Mary opened her mouth in horror at that sight. At the same time, a voice was heard from the shadow of the black man.

“...It’s dark.”

It was a very carefree voice.

“Ah, kids can’t watch from here on out

. “Please stay inside for a while.”

Yoosung answered calmly, and Maria grabbed the back of her neck in shock.

“What are you doing to Lily now?!”

“No, it looks a bit like that to kids, doesn’t it?”

“Then you shouldn’t have played it in the first place!”

“Home, that’s right too.”

After saying that, Yooseong stopped the movie, and Lily emerged again from Black Man's shadow. He looked extremely calm, as if nothing had really happened.

“Anyway, now that I think about it, it’s time to teach our Lady some manners.”

“Manners...T

Lily tilted her head as Yooseong continued.

“There’s really nothing you can’t say in front of a child.”

Maria shook her head and answered.

“Oh my, Chimatbaram is so cruel.”

“Oh my, our hero king back then must have been a spoiled brat. Do you think that the skirt wind is strong because

I like it ?”

The saintess smiled brightly and responded to Yooseong’s words, and for an instant, Yooseong’s expression hardened.

“Oh my, those bastards are just salting in broad daylight.”

Master Park, who was at the circus guild headquarters at that time, muttered. Isia, who was working next to him, answered without wavering.

“That’s right.”

“Why is the National Intelligence Service

taking charge of this damn guild in the first place?”

“That’s right.”

“At night, sesame salt will just fall off, huh?”

Lee Sia nodded at Master Park’s words.

“That’s right.”

The crescent moon was shining palely. Just as grains of desert sand shine bluishly in the moonlight, cold, bitter grains embroidered the curtain of the night sky.

Maria's face came closer, backlit under the pouring blue night light.

Maria buried her head in the back of Yoosung's neck, and a tingling pain arose as if a needle had been inserted.

Maria's lips were folded as if licking a wound after pain.

After the kiss, Maria opened the distance. Blood was flowing down her lips, like a trace of lipstick.

“It’s not as big of a deal as I thought.”

“Yes.”

Maria smiled while saying that. Blushing a little shyly.

“We’ve all seen too much to talk about this as a monster.”

“That’s right.”

Yoosung said as if he agreed.

“Then why did you hesitate so much? Well, that’s algebra.”

“well.”

Maria quietly smiled, saying that even she couldn't understand for a moment.

“But Yoosung probably thought the same as me.”

He smiled and then said. Yoosung shook his head calmly.

“That can’t be right.”

“Oh really?”

Maria asked back while tilting her head, and Yoosung nodded.

“Then try it as a test.”

Immediately after, Maria smiled mischievously and exposed the nape of her neck. The cold moonlight covered the nape of her neck.

Yoosung fell silent as if embarrassed by her words.

“No, I’m talking about when the time comes.”

“Didn’t you just say it was nothing?”

Yoosung was silent for a moment. And that was right then.

Maria pulled the back of Yoosung’s neck with both her arms. The moon is getting closer.

“Just as I proved to Yoosung that I am not a monster, now it is Yoosung’s turn to prove it to me.”

The stars in the night sky were shining so close that you could reach them with your arms outstretched.

It was so close that I wondered if I could reach out and grab the moon and stars hanging in the night sky.

That's why, as I stared at the night sky shining on Maria, I soon realized.

No matter how close it may seem, there is no way a shooting star's hand can pluck a star from the night sky.

“Ad Astra (toward the stars).”

At that moment, Maria whispered in Yoosung’s ear.

“It’s time to reach for the stars.”

Yooseong smiled quietly at those words and turned his head from the night sky he was looking at.

His star was there.
