Chapter 308

308 Tues Round Table (2)

“Isn’t that there? It’s kind of like a jury system.”

He was so lucky that he continued talking as if making an excuse.

“Of course, I do not like this method, nor do I think it is a good method. I’ve only said once that you don’t believe me, so if you don’t like it, you can say no.”

Looking at my eyes while I was talking, it seems that he understood what I was staring at as a negative meaning… … .

‘It’s a round table… … .’

Actually, it’s not a bad proposition for me.

If possible, it wouldn’t be like mimicking the jury, but it would have to undergo some modifications, such as bringing them all to the front of the round table.

The leader of Orculis and the annihilator.

And up to two unknown characters.

If you play round tables with them, useful information is sure to come out.

However… … .

“Don’t refuse. I have no desire to talk about Mijoo in front of others.”

As of right now, the limited edition information of the Auril Gabis ticket takes priority. We’ll move on to the round table rule, because we can do it later.

“Rejection… … . Actually, I thought you would answer that. From your point of view, they and I may look like one.”

Auril Gavis sighed and asked.

“Now then, what are you going to do?”

I laughed bitterly.

what about what?

I have to go back to the beginning again.

“One in three questions.”

“Hmm, I think my situation is better than when I was one in five.”

“Because I’ve been making things like this.”

As he looked at the jewel and said, this time, Auril Gabis laughed.

“Thank you for acknowledging my efforts, but wouldn’t it be reasonable to take turns doing it once in a while?”

Well, it’s just embarrassing from that point of view.

As long as the lie detector works, it can be said that the conditions for the two of us have become the same.

But… … .

“Think of it as the price of faith.”

Apart from seeing that gem in the future, I’m not sure that old man can manipulate the results of the gem’s authenticity.

Isn’t that the person who made the jewelry?

It is not strange that the cheats are hidden.

so that.

“It’s contradictory.”

Auril Gavis smiled as if he was exasperated.

“You know, don’t you? If I deceived you, any additional questions would be meaningless.”

Of course I know.

But so what do you mean?

“So you mean rejection?”

“Heh heh, it can’t be. Oddly enough, I thought it was contradictory, but I thought it made sense. At least you’re throwing yourself into an uncertain situation.”

It was a cooler acceptance than I expected.

I thought the negotiation would be a little rougher.

“Can I do the first order instead? Didn’t you ask my age earlier?”

“good night.”

This time, I gave up one step.

That old man must also have a plan, but it is true that he received a lot of consideration for the first time…

Asking questions isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

By asking a question, you can conversely understand the other person’s intentions.

“Then I will ask.”

The time of the truth game that started like that.

Soon, Auril Gavis’ mouth opened.

“How many people have cleared the original after 20 years?”

The first question is just that?

I suddenly felt that way, but it’s too early to be reassured.

Wasn’t it a question to ask at the cost of an unfavorable exchange fee of once in three?

It wouldn’t be mere curiosity.

‘I wonder why… … .’

you’re probably wondering

Will there be someone to replace me in the future?

So I just answered honestly.

“I am the only one who broke the original. At least as far as I know.”

Leave room for not being too obsessed with me, but an answer that expresses the only advantage I have in this relationship to some extent.

“Hmm, that’s right.”

When the green light came on from the jewel, Auril Gabis nodded his head slightly with an incredulous face.

So now it’s my turn to ask a question.

I didn’t have time to think about it because I had already drawn up a list of questions. Oh, of course, as the ‘jewel’ is in front, it will need to be transformed.

“Have you ever used a fragment of a record?”

I deliberately ask so that I can only answer ‘yes’ and ‘no’.

Of course, the amount of information that can be heard in this way is less… … .

Still, I can do fact-checking properly.

If only the facts are arranged, the rest can be inferred by me. It is more reliable to me than what others have told me.

“I didn’t expect to be asked such a question from the beginning… … . You’re not too strong either.”

“Answer?”

“I have used it.”

Yes, it was too.

After waiting a while until the green light came on, I calmly chose the next question.

That was the time.

Auril Gavis asked as if curious.

“But how did you know that?”

The answer is simple.

Because the last time we had a conversation, I got a little bit like that.

To be honest, it was just a stabbing.

However, there is no such thing as free money in the world of competition.

“Ask later if you have any questions.”

“Hmm… … .”

“Then ask the second question.”

“Try.”

I took a deep breath and then opened my mouth.

Second information to check first.

“Did you create this spiritual world?”

Auril Gabis, who was asked the question, flinched slightly and looked at me with strange eyes.

“… … I have no idea what you mean.”

“What do you mean?”

“It’s hard to know why you’re curious about that. If you’re just asking out of curiosity, I can understand. You don’t seem like the kind of person you’re going to be emotionally moved to.”

I think I know roughly what you mean.

In the eyes of this old man, it must have seemed like a question that was not cost effective.

I didn’t hear a definite answer, but the circumstances were clear.

It would have seemed like a waste to have to check it out.

However… … .

‘This is definitely a law that should be pointed out.’

This space, which is drawn every 15th of every month, is unique.

A lot of research has been done because the royal family and horseman also recognize its existence, but no one has been able to find out by what principle this world was realized.

Until now, the wizards were only guessing.

They say that a magician greater than they could have imagined created this place.

So, is such a great wizard really this old man?

“So what is the answer?”

“As you think. I made this place.”

Soon, Auril Gavis gave an answer.

and… … .

“The red light came on.”

Bail judged the answer to be false.

As much as the startled Auril Gavis, I was in a situation of embarrassment.

I didn’t expect a lie to appear here.

“How did this happen?”

When he asked, closing his eyes, Auril Gabis curled his tail.

“that is… It must have been a bit vague.”

it’s ambiguous… … .

Since I had knowledge about that jewel, I could almost understand what the situation was. Because that jewel is based on the ‘psyche’ of the person speaking.

If you feel uncomfortable, the green light will not come on.

When I stared at him for an explanation, Auril Gavis gave an answer like a question-and-answer.

“I made this space, but I didn’t make it.”

This isn’t meant to be a joke.

“Are you serious?”

“… … The green light is still on, isn’t it?”

“Speak straight. What does that mean? Does that mean there was a collaborator?”

Auril Gavis answered after a short pause.

“… … You can still see it.”

If it’s like that, that’s it, what else can you see?

It’s absurd, but for once, the green light on the gem did come on.

‘… … Then it could be interpreted as an intention to hide the existence of a collaborator. The red light came on at first, probably because I felt remorse for trying to pass the turn.’

Income was obtained unexpectedly.

“… … So now for the third time. Come on.”

Auril Gavis urged me with a voice saying something was missing.

Well, it’s a sneeze.

“The witch… … .”

I smiled and corrected my words.

In this case, it would be better to be certain.

It would be more accurate to refer to it more precisely.

“Is the land witch really dead?”

Although it may not be an urgent question right now, it was something that should be addressed at some point.

***

Earth witch.

Even if you are not particularly interested in history, the name you will hear countless times while living in this world.

That being said, I’ve always wondered.

To what extent are the facts of the stories I know about the ‘witch’ known to the public?

“… … Starting with the first question, there is no way to go easily anywhere.”

“Answer?”

At my urging, Auril Gavis gave an answer with a bitter smile.

“She is alive.”

Wow, really… … ?

suddenly have a lot of thoughts.

This would mean that the royal family also intentionally hid that fact… … .

‘There was no Easter egg or anything that hinted at that in the game.’

The creator of the game is this old man.

But did you know that you didn’t include that content?

The yangban who smashed all unnecessary information and settings and said ‘complete tutorial’ at the end?

Again, this is not natural.

Rather, it is credible that these stories were intentionally hidden in the hopes that they would not reach the ears of the players.

‘Then why did you want to keep this a secret?’

I’ve been guessing for a while, but I don’t know yet.

few clues

However, I had a gut feeling that if I dug this down, I would be able to figure out what the ultimate goal of the royal family or this old man was.

To put it simply, this question has given me a minimal guideline.

It was time to organize my thoughts.

“Fufu, then it’s finally my turn.”

The old man who had gone through a long hard time burst into laughter.

What the hell are you trying to ask?

In the midst of anxiety, the old man opened his mouth.

“Do you want to return to Earth?”

The intent of the question is clear.

I expressed it in a euphemistic way, but there must be something else I’m really curious about.

Do I have the will to open the door to the abyss?

Yeah, I guess that’s what I really wanted to ask.

“I do not know.”

He gave an answer as if he was holding his breath, and before long, a green light erupted from the jewel.

“I don’t know…….”

Auril Gavis smiled as if something was wrong, and changed his expression as if nothing was wrong.

And he gave me bad advice.

“I want you to choose quickly.”

“why?”

“Because that would be good for each other.”

I asked what it meant, but the old man shuddered, ‘Is that the question this time?’ And that was the end of the topic.

So now it’s my turn again.

I asked right away without wasting time.

“Did the witch’s poison really exist?”

“… Were you always interested in her?”

Well, in fact it is not.

As we were talking, I just thought that the ‘witch’ might be the core of this story.

“Whew… … .”

Auril Gabis, who took a sip of his teacup, answered as if he were telling a story from a long time ago.

“It’s not like that’s a made-up story. The world almost perished once because of her. If it hadn’t been for the existence of the labyrinth, it would have come to an end.”

The light on the jewel is green.

Hmm, then did the outside world really get better over time?

With that thought in mind, I moved on to the next question.

“If the witch is alive, where is she now?”

It was the only subjective question asked today.

Since I don’t know anything, I decided that I couldn’t answer this as a multiple-choice question.

However, Auril Gavis was mean.

“She is where everyone’s wishes go.”

Whoo, that damn enigmatic speech.

I sighed and checked the jewel.

Seeing that the green light is floating, I think I’ll just skip it even if I catch a tantrum… … .

“Are you really acting like this?”

When he asked with a frown on his eyes, thinking of giving it a try, Auril Gabis put his hand on the jewel again and said.

“But it’s really hard to find a better explanation than this.”

This time the green light came on.

Looking at that sullen expression, I don’t think I’ll change my attitude until I do more.

So I just gave up on my regrets.

‘Well, I did check one thing though.’

Auril Gavis knows the witch’s location.

And you don’t want to tell me that.

Simply put… … .

What I learn about witches is likely to be contrary to Auril Gavis’s purpose.

“Now it’s already the third time.”

The old man smiles leisurely as if these questions were not too difficult.

‘Oh, that’s bad.’

Maybe it’s time to check it out.

Maybe that’s more important to me than the witch or anything I asked before.

“Come on, let’s do it.”

After thinking for a while, I opened my mouth.

“Do you think you feel sorry for me?”

For a moment, silence passed.

***

I found out that my profession is a wizard.

He seems to be very savvy about the secrets of this world, including witches.

He is a game creator, and he also knows the antagonism of the royal family.

So, now it’s time to check.

What kind of person is Auril Gavis?

“Heh heh, you’re asking a difficult question again.”

The old man’s characteristic shrill laughter marked the end of the brief silence.

“Didn’t you answer ‘I don’t know’ to the question if you wanted to return to Earth earlier? That would mean that life here wasn’t all that bad.”

It wasn’t an answer to the question.

He didn’t say anything for a long time, but just stared at him.

“What are those eyes? If you are, you know Sometimes you have to ignore your emotions to achieve your goals.”

I agree with you, but again, this was not the answer to the question I asked.

“If you find it difficult to answer this question, change the question.”

At my words, which seemed to yield a step, Auril Gavis agreed that he was right.

“Oh, will you?”

I nodded and changed the question.

Because the question just seemed difficult to answer.

A little more specific.

“Auril Gavis, do you feel any remorse at the countless ‘evil spirits’ who were brought here and died because of your greed?”

Again, no answer came back.

“haha… … .”

Just an awkward laugh.

If that was the case, the answer was enough.

That was the time when I was just thinking about it.

“haha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!”

Auril Gabis laughed out loud.

From a viewing point of view, it was a very heterogeneous sight.

Without even realizing it, I had goosebumps on my back.

“I mean, he’s a friend who can’t look cute.”

He looked at me with playful eyes.

At that moment, the surrounding air fell heavily.

tuk.

Soon, Auril Gavis opened his mouth, placing his hand on the jewel in the middle of the table.

In a favorable voice, as ever.

“How can you feel comfortable with me? Of course I’m sorry. I also feel responsible. I will probably live with this kind of heart for the rest of my life and make atonement for it.”

Saying that, Auril Gabis smiled brightly.

“How about this, would this be the answer?”

“… … enough.”

I replied briefly and checked the jewel.

🤩🤩🤩🤩

A very bright red light was emanating from the jewel.
