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

Episode 452: We Will Be Blessed (9)

“So what did you want to say separately?”

“Oh, that’s…”

I opened my mouth hesitantly, looking at the Archmage and the Purple Snake Fairy Archmage in turn.

“Isn’t this the end soon? Before that… I wanted to say hello properly.”

You can talk at a banquet, but it might be difficult to have an in-depth conversation in such a noisy situation. Since there are many ears listening, it is clear that you will be careful about what you say in personal matters.

“I really owe a lot to the three of you that cannot be explained in words.”

So, I’m saying this in advance. I comically pulled out the body I was hiding behind the Archmage to the side to avoid his gaze. Lightly. The thick fur cloak moved dully as he walked sideways.

“Hey, what’s the last one? “I didn’t know, but he’s more pessimistic than I thought.”

“I apologize if I felt uncomfortable being asked to become a disciple. So don’t say that. “Words become seeds.”

“…? ah.”

I laughed awkwardly as I watched the two great wizards go through with the misunderstanding that Windson had made.

“It’s not the last time I mean that.”

why am i dying I won’t die. This body may die, but I will not die anyway.

“…Look at the way he speaks. “So you’re saying that’s not what you mean?”

“Uhm….”

No, the way you speak… What is it? Actually, I wanted to change it right away, but it was just a habit of speaking informally first. I thought he would say ‘Why are you speaking informally?’ when he became an archmage, but he didn’t even do that, so I didn’t even get the time to change.

But under the pretext of it being the last, isn’t it still okay?

“…The desire to change out of respect already existed. It’s just that… I couldn’t bear to do it because I couldn’t overcome the feeling of unfamiliarity.”

To be honest, it’s strange that he treats the Archmage with respect, but speaks informally to the rest of the archmages. Regardless of their positions, their ages are similar.

…So it would be similar, right? To be honest, it is very difficult to determine the age of wizards, especially archmages, based on face value. Maybe it’s because everyone is living life the way they want, but they are so young…

“I just tried to muster courage under the pretense that it was the last time. “If you have been offended by my rudeness so far, please forgive me.”

“…Hey hey. It’s okay, so please withdraw both the last word and the honorific. “It’s going to be awkward.”

“Hmm no. I think it’s pretty good. “It’s nice and like a disciple.”

“…Where is the person who said he would apologize if I felt uncomfortable recruiting a student?”

The fairy and the purple snake reacted differently to my actions. For reference, the last statement is from Archmage. I thought the purple snake’s response was quite absurd.

“Anyway, I really didn’t mean it that way.”

“Oh oh oh? okay. “Then what did you mean by that?”

“That’s…”

I didn’t bother to say it until now because there was no problem with not revealing my origins or related circumstances… but it would be better to explain it properly now.

With that thought in mind, I exchanged glances with the Archmage and then opened my mouth.

“I am not from this world.”

The expressions of the archmages suddenly became strange.

“…So that’s why it didn’t work?”

And when the Archmage and I continued to explain for a while, the fairy placed her delicate hand on her cheek and sighed. Once again, it had a beautiful and neat appearance.

“Yes, in that situation, there is nothing we can do.”

But don’t be fooled by that face. Because it’s clear that a swear word will come out of your mouth within 10 seconds.

You can also cast Wrath’s Ratel on this.

“…If it’s like this, I can’t catch it. That’s sad. “The world is different and such talent has to be buried.”

“You are like a snake without blood or tears. Even after hearing this story, do you see talent first? “This isn’t really a piece of shit.”

Look, wasn’t that accurate? […Could you please stop messing around with my beloved sword somewhere like this?] For the first time in a long time, I heard a voice as angry as excrement – and ignored it – and felt proud of my accurate prediction.

“The misfortune he experienced is not my fault or something I can solve. And I think I gave him the best treatment he could have received.”

“Senior, senior. That guy is that crazy? “He’s a bigger bastard than me.”

“Hehe… But he doesn’t break your balls right in front of you.”

“Oh, it’s the fault of those bastards who did something that broke things.”

Well, I didn’t mean to get sympathy in the first place, but if you look at it that way, Purple Snake’s reaction is better… But I don’t hate the sight of the fairy expressing sincere regret.

People who try to truly sympathize and understand instead of showing superficial sympathy are simply willing, no matter who the target is.

“Anyway… okay. Return safely to your hometown. “You’re healthy there too.”

“It’s a bit more unfortunate than that. “A world other than the Demon World… If I had time, I would have asked a lot of questions.”

“If you still have time to catch the demon lord, leave that bastard and come to me. Even now, if you stab that bastard, blue blood will bleed out.”

“My blood is red.”

If the return is postponed, wouldn’t I have to find the Archmage first rather than the two of you? Of course, looking at what I’m doing now, I like the fairy because it’s more humane than the purple snake.

“You two are really close.”

“yes? Who? “Me?”

“…Geumpung-nim, I would like to deny this as well.”

“Isn’t it nice to see?”

I glanced alternately at the Archmage, who was looking at the two juniors warmly, and at the two people, who couldn’t bear to confront their senior, so they just kept their expressions stern.

“I think so.”

I think this person is right because the Archmage is the strongest.

“hey!”

“…I think you need to improve your sharp eyesight.”

The fairy shouted in response to my light affirmation, and the purple snake muttered a word with a serious face. “Hehehe.” Naturally, the one who laughed the loudest was the Archmage.

A bright smile spread across her face, and soon it even embraced a warm glow.

“Leaving the small talk here… there you go. “As the fairy already said, you must be healthy when you go.”

“… Archmage must also be strong.”

I felt a little moved by that smile, so I muttered as low as I could. The Archmage’s smile softened and her hands took my hand and patted it.

“I will, as long as this is completed successfully. “Before you die, you will be able to see the world become peaceful. What greater blessing can there be?”

“Isn’t the death of the Demon King synonymous with the end?”

It is true that the greatest threats are disappearing, but it will take a very long time to erase the traces they leave behind. And that task belongs to these people who will remain here, not to me who will leave.

“When I tried it, it didn’t seem right to live intensely while taking on the work of 100 people on my own. So… Archmage, I hope you don’t put too much effort into it and leave it all to the younger guys. The same goes for the other two.”

However, I hope the Archmage does not intervene too much in the process. Our messy journey has already been enough for her to clean up after us.

“You’re just saying it’s not a problem.”

“I have already engraved my name in history.”

Two people, who must have understood what I meant, gave me a joking slap with a faint smile on their faces. It wasn’t entirely wrong, so I smiled with a slight frown.

“I agree. “Doing the work of hundreds of people alone may be noble, but it is not the right way to live for that individual.”

Meanwhile, the Archmage who was stroking the back of my hand wrinkled his nose and said. The black nose twitched vaguely.

“So… I will try to make sure that no more people like you and the Inquisitor appear. There is no need for one person to shoulder the karma of millions of people or to make sacrifices to relieve their suffering. “I will strive to bring about such a world.”

“…Archmage.”

“I’m telling you this again.”

And then the hand was released. The Archmage took a step back and quickly adjusted his clothes to become a more neat look.

“Thank you for your dedication.”

Also, the two archmages lined up on either side of her politely bowed to the Archmage’s curved waist.

I froze as I received the thanks of the three great wizards.

“I feel endless shame and regret for that noble sacrifice that I did not expect in return.”

“If I could cross the world, I would have given you the example you deserve.”

“It’s a shame. “If I could have blessed the soul, I would have spent an infinite amount of time making it.”

“I just hope that you will find endless happiness when you return.”

I don’t think I’ve ever had a moment of gratitude like this, but it was strangely heartbreaking.

“Hehe… why are you crying?”

“…I’m not crying.”

“What are you saying?”

“When fairies do things like this, they pretend not to notice.”

“Noisy. “Why should I do that?”

“…Wait, fairy, are you crying too?”

“It’s noisy?! “What can that young guy say I am…”

“…You are really surprisingly sensitive.”

While I enjoyed watching the bickering between the fairy and the purple snake, I obediently accepted the Archmage’s hand wiping my cheek. The feel of the part commonly called jelly and the feeling of my face being crushed were strange. It wasn’t a bad weirdness.

“…I wish I had known the truth sooner.”

“…That’s right.”

It would have been easier for me if I had been able to solve the concept earlier.

“One thing… As a result, there were a lot of things I did because I didn’t know.”

However, if you think about it another way, there were some things that were accomplished because the concept could not be solved.

There were more than one case where an unreasonable forced march based on a concept ultimately prevented a bigger tragedy, and even the escape in the middle was a decisive opportunity to save Munmund.

“At a time when I felt like I couldn’t see an inch ahead due to deep despair, of course it was painful and difficult. “There were moments when I was wandering around, not even knowing what I was doing or where I was walking, and there were definitely moments where I felt so terrible that I wanted to choose death.”

So it’s okay.

“But despite all that pain, I came this far. I can’t hope for forgiveness because I did the best I could, but I didn’t do anything dishonest. So that I can shout like that.”

I will be okay.

“…job.”

“Arch Mage. “Am I wrong to think this way?”

I… I’m really going to be okay.

“Could it be wrong? “You are the greatest luck our world could have had.”

Just like the moment when I walked again even though my legs no longer moved, I will rise again this time with eternal sin in my heart.

A bright smile spread across my face.

* * *

Deathbringer rolled his eyes once again as he looked at the being in front of him. Of course, that didn’t change what already existed.

“…make.”

“huh?”

“If it’s really Skye, hurry up and say the promised phrase.”

But do you really believe that? Deathbringer put his hand to the sheath of his sword, putting his confused wind hand behind him.

Skylar’s eyes widened.

“Hmm.”

“You’re not talking?”

However, rather than stiffening in discomfort, her mouth relaxed as if she was happy. It was quite the opposite of my companion, whose originally sharp eyes had become even more pointed.

“Where is the promise between us?”

“Damn.”

“Haha, did you fit the thousand puzzle pieces together?”

“…Are you really Skylar? “Why are you here?”

Of course, Deathbringer didn’t care much about that. It’s probably the one Skylar brought with her. That’s why I passed it over so roughly.

“I came to see you.”

“I heard you have a cold. Why do you come to the front line in bad shape? No, they let me in in the first place? “You must be standing so hard right now?”

“They finally let me in because I proved that I was an iron-clad adventurer.”

If you’re an iron-clad adventurer… you deserve it. Since we are gathering all the remaining strength we have for the upcoming battle, it would have been a waste to send out a half-baked iron battle board.

“You beat up adventurer Skylar. “Wasn’t there an iron defeat before that?”

“It’s not me, it’s him.”

Skylar pointed to the person behind her.

“Call me Fabi. “He is the branch manager of a city, and he came with me.”

“You didn’t drag me here?”

“Are you going to drag the branch manager over saying I’m crazy? He volunteered. Right, Fabi?”

“what. “That’s right, senior.”

“…really?”

Is that real? Are you crazy? Why did he volunteer to follow Skyla around, even though he was the branch manager? Of course, it’s nice that Skyla is under the protection of the Iron Fighter adventurer and branch leader.

“Hey. So am I forgetting? Well, it’s okay since we already know each other.”

“ah.”

Then wait a moment. Deathbringer sighed as he saw the person poking his back. We met so suddenly that we completely forgot the introduction. Well, as Baramson said, he and Skyla already knew each other.

“…Let’s move to our seats first.”

Still, I think a detailed explanation of this situation is necessary. Deathbringer scratched his head and suggested.

“okay!”

“If possible, let’s go to the bar. My legs hurt from walking so much.”

It was a proposal that everyone except one person with a strangely grumpy expression agreed to.
