Chapter 845: The Last (78)

From his point of view, it must have been the best move.

The process might have been a little different, but I can guarantee that I would have done something similar if I were him. To completely hide the conditions for attacking the event and to draw all eyes to him.

It was all bluffing, and it was a made-up script.

The arrogant expression on his face, the way he referred to humans as inferior insects, the way he was calm while being beaten up, and the thing he’d dropped in Laios were all scripted.

I immediately realized that it had been designed with this side as a medium.

He was cautious yet daring. He had several insurances, and he’d thrown the dice at the time he thought was right.

Seeing that he had deceived Jin Qing and Cho Hyejin, I could only think that he was right. This was because the results were actually saying it.

Everyone looked up at the sky as he became a giant incarnation of Belial and wielded a large sword. Even after rubbing my eyes, I couldn’t find the figure of Benignore, who was keeping him from the Plague Lord’s event at that time. Because this was an event that had passed.

It was an event that had skipped by itself while I was paying attention to the Plague Lord, who was wagging his tail softly in front of me.

‘There must have been a hint.’

There must have been a condition.

Infected areas that had not been there at the time, those infected with the plague, the isolated patients, and the high priests who were guarding them.

Families in distress and those who offered prayers. A church that worked hard to purify the land and the huge divine power that was constantly falling.

‘That must have been the condition.’

If I’d wanted to attack this event, as usual, the key would probably have been that.

I should’ve collected the divinities they’d gathered or the keys to summon the incarnation of Benignore that could be used for the main event by clearing a few small ones.

That was how games worked, right?

If I were to clear all the chain quests, chain quests, and chain quests, the rewards would come at the end.

Maybe he was doing something similar. Wouldn’t it be correct to surmise that he was clearing his own small event while facing this side?

“Could I at least get it now?”

It might have been a little late, but it might be okay. The divinity gathered more in moments of crisis, and not everything had been ruined yet.

“Hyejin, let’s see if we can proceed with small events or quests centered on the infected area, the infected, and the high-ranking priests there. Even the smallest hint it’s good. Tell Jin Qing too…”

—Damn.

“I guess this bastard’s pride is greatly hurt.”

—…

‘Are you having trouble breathing?’

There were excuses. This was because he didn’t know what the next event was going to be or what the Plague Lord’s ending was.

However, he was biting his lip as he quickly realized that there were other conditions.

He didn’t like the fact that he’d missed something. He probably thought that he had been fooled again. The opponent he’d thought was having fun fighting was actually doing something else.

From his point of view, he had been deceived again, so I could understand his angry expression. However, what could I do?

‘You’re not the only one who has been deceived…’

Technically speaking, I should have noticed.

— Stupid Lee Kiyoung.

‘What?’

—You’re below the level. Damn.

“Strictly speaking, you should have noticed. Who are you blaming for taking the main order?”

—Enough. There must be a way to fix it now… It would be meaningless to come here and judge what is right or wrong.

“No, it’s not meaningless. It’s not meaningless. Anyone can see it’s your fault. You are also in charge of an axis of the event. The person who noticed how the system was running got crazy with the war game and had fun with it… Isn’t it natural for something like this to happen?”

—Aren’t you aware of the event, too? Besides… you have experienced it yourself. How do I…? About what happened after I died…?

“You said you were a genius commander. It seems like the genius part is dead. No matter what you say, it doesn’t change the fact that you neglected your work because you were caught up with war games. If you had dealt with it sooner…”

—What?

It was then that Cho Hyejin, who had been quietly reporting the situation, hit the table.

-Gosh! Stop! Really!

“…”

—…

– It’s a mess here, so please… stop it. If the Vice Guild Master also wants to say something, say it. The same goes for the commander. Even in this situation, do you have to fight and bite at each other like that?

—Lee Kiyoung started it…

-…

—Okay. Let’s stop… Damn… I showed a shady side. Damn… why me…?

“Look at him confessing his fault now. Hyejin, let me say one more…”

– I said, enough.

“…”

-Stop. Now.

“Well… okay.”

– I’ll send Alps.

“Ah…”

-As you said, it may be a little late, but we will be able to follow along. Maybe she…

“It’s not a bad pick.”

-Yeah.

The dog that was with her had a good nose, so feedback would definitely come soon.

If Cho Hyejin also thought that it was right to follow through with the event even though it was late, then perhaps I could see the result sooner than I thought.

If it were a standard strategy, Hyejin might be better than me.

– First, I will check the infected area where it was first created. We are currently conducting investigations on the infected, even though it’s late… and we’ll follow the case, centering on the report that the temple of Lauren was the first contaminated. You two, please find a way to fix Belial’s incarnation situation.

—Okay.

“How long do you think it will take?”

– It’s hard to say exactly, but I’ll follow up as fast as possible. Alps? Yes. As soon as you arrive, head to Lauren’s Temple. I’ll send you a party that you can join with the coordinates. If there is a battle or you need assistance, please contact me immediately.

“About three hours.”

-The time you can stay is about three hours. Keep in mind that you can become infected with even a little more time. The faster, the better.

Alps, who nodded, got off the griffon and ran off frantically with Whitey.

There was no need to, but after receiving the priests’ blessing, she took a deep breath before heading to the infected area.

There was no sound in the ruins, where all the residents had already been evacuated.

Cho Hyejin was looking at the Goddess’ Mirror with a worried expression, but it wasn’t about Alps she should’ve been worrying about.

—Die, you lowly insects.

The incarnation of Belial with the giant sword was more of a problem.

It definitely looked like a huge tower was falling.

Jin Qing was prepping for the Belial raid, sending out a flurry of dispatches, but in my case, it seemed that I could rest assured a bit.

‘Hee-ra.’

She was laughing.

– Hahahahahaha!

All with her arms wide open.

“If it’s dangerous, tell her to get out immediately, Hyejin. I prepared it because I knew this.”

-What?

—…

Of course, I hadn’t prepared anything. However, it was undeniable that the one who pretended to see was the winner.

The one who got achievements first won. Actually, this would be Hee-ra’s achievement, but there was no problem taking part in the credit.

The huge sword began to fall, and Cha Hee-ra deftly crossed the ax and the great sword to face the incarnation’s blade.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom!!

With that sound, the ground that Cha Hee-ra was treading on crumbled.

The ax and sword she was holding cracked and eventually shattered.

In the meantime, I saw her gripping the sword with her arms again and biting her lips sharply.

She ground her teeth, and blood flowed from within her mouth. It felt like her body was screaming at a force that she couldn’t cover with simple muscle strength, but she seemed to be having fun.

The incarnation of Belial, who had eaten the plague trash, was pouring more magical energy into the giant sword, but she did not retreat even a single step.

—Die!!!

– It’s me who will win this.

Boooooooooooooooooooom!!

With that sound, the dust rose, but there was no damage to Cha Hee-ra.

After blowing blood from her nose, she quietly looked up.

– Should I just do this?

—What?

– This way, I can fight properly.

—What…? What…? Hey… you are… you are… what in the world…?

It was at that moment that a dark red light came out of her back.

Something that I couldn’t call wings or magic power began to wrap around Cha Hee-ra’s body so quickly that it was weird.

“Hee-ra… I love you.”

Just as the plague garbage had contained the incarnation of Belial, the dark red light surrounding Cha Hee-ra had now begun to take shape.

As her body continued to inflate, something in the form of armor was being created steadily.

As the incarnation of Belial swung his sword, the red armor raised one arm to block the sword and once again grew in size.

Just when I thought that she had become similar in size to him, the red body carefully stood up.

—This monster… monster bitch…

– This is easy.

It was just like looking at a god.

Just like when Belial and Benignore, in their gigantic forms, collided, the incarnation of Belial and the red body wielding weapons at each other was more than overwhelming.

Every time their swords struck, I could hear a roar that resonated in the earth.

The surroundings turned into ruins too easily.

I didn’t know how she could do something like that. Could Kim Hyunsung do that? Because the plague trash didn’t actually carry Belial’s incarnation.

Perhaps it was possible? To be more precise, he’d wrapped his body with divinity to create a shape. He’d received a system judgment as an event there… and if he were to get a boost in his abilities…

It was easy to say, but such a series of processes was not easy.

What was surprising was that Hee-ra had seen it once and imitated it right away.

I didn’t know if she understood that the divinity in her own body was accumulated or if she had created the exact shape by using advanced magic, but Cha Hee-ra had put her incarnation in her own body.

It was unstable, but the whole process made it hard to believe that this had been a human achievement, and it made me rub my eyes without realizing it.

Not to mention the red mercenaries. No, many Federation citizens who were watching that battle would also have defined what was happening now as nonsensical.

– Red body. Red body.

-Really… It’s a red body.

Booooooooooooom!!

Boooooooooooooooooom!!!

– It’s a ridiculous battle… really… is it a sight… that humans can even create?

– Cha Hee-ra…

Craaaaaaaaash!

Booooooooooooooom!!

Of course, it was a sight that humans could create.

I thought it would be better to say something more here.

“It’s just as planned.”

—…

“It seems worthwhile to have insurance, commander.”

—…

His eyes were telling me to stop with the bullshit, but in the first place, shameless people always won.

“Aren’t we supposed to hide our really precious cards even from our allies?”
