Apocalypse's All-Rounder Mischief

Chapter 159

Game of lords (3)

“Then let’s start the game.”

“Yes, Benator. I was waiting.”

“Who can do it first?”

“Me. I’ll start with you, Patus-sama!”

“No! Please start with me this time.”

Is it advantageous to start first?

Papilio and Stella argue that they will do it first.

But Benator shook his head.

“This is the house of Pathus, so it is correct to start with Pathus.”

Benator looked at Junyoung.

“You start first, Patus.”

For a moment, Junyoung was confused.

‘Why me?’

Maybe it’s not the first game.

If it was a real Pathus, I would have started something very naturally.

‘How do I know what games they played?’

No matter how much he has now reached the level of an absolute god, similar to that of Pathus, he has not achieved omnipotence, knowing all of these things by itself.

‘What’s missing from the system?’

Regarding the achievements of Yu-Hee, the moment he became conscious of it, it naturally came to mind.

But not now.

The problem is that I can’t even guess what to start with.

“What are you doing, Patus?”

Papilio, who was watching, said as if frustrated.

“There are a lot of things that are uncommon today, Patus.”

This time it’s Stella’s voice.

There was some kind of annoyance.

Junyoung was silent for a moment, then looked at Benator.

“First, I will yield to Benator.”

Then Benator replied as if it was unexpected.

“May I ask why you want to yield to me?”

“I am always grateful to Benator. Think of it as an expression of respect.”

Junyoung said with a look full of respect while not losing a patho-like, ambiguous expression.

‘I can’t help it.’

It is an unwilling, but unavoidable method.

That’s because I can’t honestly say that I don’t know how to play the game.

“I understand your feelings, but rules are rules. This is your home, so you should do it first. I don’t want to break the rules.”

It means to decline the favor.

At the same time, it is said to follow the rules.

Junyoung tried to concede goodness to Stella or Papilio if Benator refused, but now that has become impossible.

‘I have a headache.’

You’ve been cheating really well so far, but in the end you’re caught here?

The female goddess is perfect enough to deceive even the system in her appearance, but she cannot even absorb the memories of her transformation target.

It can be said that this is the only weakness of the female priestess, and Junyoung was just having an external headache.

‘Now there is only one way.’

It is only a matter of time before Junyoung’s identity is revealed.

At that moment, he will have to fight with Benator and others.

The odds are 0.

As long as there is Benator, there is no chance of winning.

Therefore, he must run away unconditionally.

‘After leaving this house, we must move to where Escanunilus is as soon as possible.’

Escanunilus is the only being that Benator can’t do anything about.

Even Junyoung doesn’t know her true identity.

It is also questionable whether she will help her just by avoiding her.

But now, for Junyoung, there was no other way.

‘For now, I have to get out of here first.’

Let’s plan for the future

After getting strong enough to not be pushed back even after fighting Venator, he will punish him.

However, in order to do that, he would have to escape safely from this place where Benator has his eyes wide open.

It is doubtful whether that would be possible.

Still, it would be better than sitting still and dying.

(Can you help me?)

Just as Junyoung seeks an opportunity to escape, a mysterious voice comes out of nowhere.

(Are you trying to escape? No, but that’s impossible. You’ll die instantly if you just show any signs of doing that.)

It’s a voice that comes from the heart, so only Junyoung can hear it.

The way you talk is somewhat familiar.

Somehow, it’s not so much that it’s familiar.

(Is it Pathus?)

( Pathus? Heh! You dare to match the topic of the protests now. )

Unbelievable!

It was really Patus.

How did this happen?

Was Patus alive and not dead?

‘but. He thought he couldn’t die so easily.’

No matter how much I thought about it, I had a feeling that it was strange that Patus and Escar were dating.

However, after that, Patus did not appear and he thought that he might have died.

If she were alive, there would be no way she wouldn’t show up in front of Junyoung.

But she eventually showed up.

Even in the situation where Benator and others are gathered, very secretly.

‘I don’t know where they are.’

Seeing that Benator is silent, it seems that he, too, does not know that Pathus has arrived.

(Are you really Patus? She was alive.)

You’d better have a conversation with Patus first.

Junyoung conveyed her will to her with all her politeness.

(Okay. Once again, what kind of person are you? Now that I know who you are anyway, it’s impossible to deceive me anymore, Kang Junyoung. )

( ··········. )

(Don’t hesitate, put a marble of fate on the spot I mentioned. Otherwise everyone will doubt you.)

Patus quickly explained the rules of the game to Junyoung.

Junyoung, as she was told, dropped one of the marbles of her fate in one place on a stone table.

Wrath!

On the stone table, the dimensional system is reduced to appear in the form of a three-dimensional map.

In one of the airspaces, when the marble of fate placed down by Junyoung took its place, the airspace was dyed with a mysterious silver color.

It is a light similar to Patus’ unique silver hair.

“Hmm, are you going to occupy that place?”

And as soon as Junyoung released the marble of fate, Benator drooled lightly.

The airspace there was one of the airspaces of Benator, and it was a very important point.

Maybe that’s why Pafilio and Stella, who were both annoyed at Junyoung, looked intently at the three-dimensional map on the stone table as if they had ever done it.

“That is unfair. Are you coming out too aggressive from the start?”

“Sheesh! I’ve known since the first time I took the time. But it won’t be easy. Prepare yourself, Patus.”

Immediately, Pafilio and Stella placed a marble of fate on the stone table like a go stone, and Benator also picked up a marble of fate and occupied one of the airspaces.

Next is Junyoung’s turn again.

(This time, attack Papilio’s Melane airspace.)

Junyoung didn’t have to worry.

Because Pathus taught me what to do.

All you have to do is to flick the marble of fate that Junyoung first put on with your finger to hit the marble of fate that sparkles in the airspace of Pafilio’s Melana.

‘Is this the way to know?’

Still, it is somewhat absurd that the name is similar to Alkagi, a game played by the Lords of Destiny and the Overlords.

It wasn’t that simple though.

This is because, in order to move the Orb of Destiny, a large amount of divine power and dimensional power must be properly mixed to control the power.

In particular, the three-dimensional map spread out on the stone table looks like an empty space, but the flow of various dimensional forces is swirling and they are interfering with the progress of the marble.

It takes great skill to break through such obstacles and rush the marble to where you want it to go.

However.

In fact, Junyoung has reached the level of a master when it comes to reconciling divine power and dimensional power without knowing the other side.

Because you can use your desire.

He was a man who had shown great destructive power in battle by combining divine power and dimensional power like alchemy through the power of desire.

‘This is my specialty.’

It’s literally gum.

If it’s a game you’ve already played, let’s sweep this board.

Junyoung, who immediately raised his desire, concentrated his mind.

For reference, desire is a power that has no substance, unlike divine power or dimensional power.

Even if Junyoung uses it, there is no risk of being discovered because its power is not exposed externally.

‘Now.’

The moment Junyoung’s finger bounced off the marble of fate, it began to run through the space of the three-dimensional map spread out on the stone table.

grasp! Wow-!

In an instant, a silvery brilliance continued from the central Benator airspace to Papilio’s Melana airspace, and a part of the stone table was colored with mysterious silver.

“Oh oh! That’s a cool trick.”

“I can!”

“Nonsense!”Benator admired it, and Pafilio and Stella looked puzzled.

( Awesome! Very well done! )

Even Pathus praised Junyoung as if greatly surprised.

(Well, this is the basics.)

Junyoung smiled happily.

‘It’s roughly like a game of land grabbing. The rules are mixed with miscellaneous things, including Go and Alkagi.’

But that’s roughly the case, the rules were unpredictably complicated.

However, Junyoung didn’t have to think about how to proceed with the game.

It’s because you just have to do what Pathus tells you.

(Is it okay to keep doing this?)

(Yeah. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but if you just do it like you do now, you might get better results than you think in this edition.)

(I’ll do my best to get a good result, so just keep telling me how you do it.)

(Don’t worry about that. But you don’t say thank you when I help you. Are you sure you didn’t appreciate it? )

(Of course, thank you, but what do you mean? Why are you secretly helping me without revealing my identity? )

(That’s because, like you said, I have a plan.)

(What does that mean?)

(I have no reason to even tell you that, Kang Junyoung. You’re pretty, so you don’t expect me to help you, right? )

(Of course, I don’t have such ridiculous expectations. I’m still curious though.)

(If you don’t know anything, just focus on the game.)

Patus’ voice was cold.

In fact, when I think of being deceived by Junyoung in the past, it wouldn’t be cool to drink him again.

Even so, he is secretly helping Junyoung without revealing Junyoung’s identity.

‘Is there something I can’t tell you?’

Pathus is never kind enough to do a favor for no reason.

He is one of the demons who destroyed a whopping 386 small worlds in the recent play period alone.

There is no need to question how evil she is just by looking at what she has done to Earth after leaving everything.

‘What is certain is that Pathus also needs my help.’

If Junyoung had nothing to gain, she wouldn’t be doing what she is doing now.

I don’t know what it is.

For some reason, she seemed afraid of Junyoung’s identity being revealed now.

(Okay. Let’s focus on the game as much as possible first.)

Junyoung moved the Orb of Destiny as Pathus instructed.

‘New marbles of fate keep appearing.’

At first, there were only 30 marbles of fate, but combined with the newly appeared ones, the number suddenly increased to close to 100.

hit and hit

disappear and create a new one.

As he frantically moved the marbles as Pathus said, Junyoung had close to 50 marbles.

‘In this game, the more marbles of fate you have, the more advantageous it is, but it’s not absolute.’

At first, Benator had the most advantage, but now Junyoung is holding almost half of the Orbs of Destiny that appeared in the full version.

Of course, it is because of Junyoung’s special new work.

Following that, there were about 30 Benator and about 10 of Papilio and Stella, and the numbers were similar.

( Huh, this is the first time I’ve ever seen this happen. The game is running very nicely today. )

Patus’ voice was very excited.
