323 episode role (3)

Long white hair.

wrinkled wrinkles.

A gentle, friendly impression.

A straight waist that is not appropriate for his age, and a wall that seems to see through the inside of a person.

“Hmm, no matter when I come here, it’s always gloomy.”

Novel from https://readwn.com

My heart was pounding at the appearance of an old man who looked exactly like what we saw in the community.

‘Auril Gavis… … ?’

Of course, I had in mind what I was going to encounter today.

That’s what Amelia said.

The day her sister died, that old man was there too.

However… … .

‘No, why is this grandpa here?’

Why is this old man right here and not at the heart of the case?

No matter how much I think about it, there is only one.

‘me… You must have come to find me.’

Your heart starts beating faster and your brain gets confused.

How the hell did this old man find me?

Could it be that Bjorn Yandel was also found out?

Why was the community closed for months?

No, above all… … .

What is this old man trying to do with me from now on?

At the same time as I had my doubts, the cold sweat that came out late started to run down my back.

That was the moment.

“Great.”

Auril Gavis drew attention with a cough.

I guess he didn’t like it when he stopped and stared at me without answering… … .

You must do something at once.

Ha, but what should I say?

Yes, first of all, greetings naturally—

“Okay, so can you get out of here now?”

uh?

“If you are blocking the road with such a large size, you cannot pass.”

what?

‘… … You don’t know if it’s me?’

The unexpected development shook my head.

But the mouth, which had spit out countless lies, knew what to do and did what I had to do.

“Ah, yes… … . pass by old man.”

An honorific word that has never been done since it inhabited the body of a barbarian.

At this, Auril Gabis laughed happily.

“You are a rare, polite friend? Or are you quick-witted? I will live long.”

As soon as I got close to the side and cleared the road, he chuckled and passed me by.

thump, thump.

footsteps getting farther away.

Suddenly, that thought came to mind.

Although I instinctively avoided the situation, was it good to hide my identity?

Of course, it was just a thought for a moment.

It wasn’t even within the community, but I actually met him. If you can hide your identity, of course you should. If we even find out about Bjorn Yandel, we have too many things to worry about when we go back to the future.

‘Yeah, it went well… … .’

As I thought about it, my body that had been frozen in my throat began to loosen up and I started to feel it slowly.

That was the time.

“Oh, I didn’t ask that.”

Auril Gabis, who was walking well, turned his back.

Then he looked at me and asked a question.

“What the hell happened to make this place look like this today?”

“The lord has joined hands with the royal family and attacked Orculis.”

“Oh, such a thing… … .”

Contrary to what Tu said, he didn’t feel any interest in his voice.

So at first I thought it was an illusion, but… … .

After hearing the second question, the difference became clear.

“Oh, and one more question. Hasn’t a barbarian recently entered the city? Probably five or six months ago… … .”

It was the complete opposite of the first.

It was a spitting tone as if it was nothing special, but there was a deep interest in his voice that could not be hidden.

‘Peace, equanimity… … .’

After trying to calm his heart, Kongdak calmly opened his mouth in search of the most appropriate answer.

“Yes, there was.”

It’s not good to lie.

If you go to the city in the first place and ask a few people, you will get an answer, so there is no reason for that.

“Hey, is that right? May I know where I can go to meet him?”

“According to my memory, he belonged to the Seongju faction. So, I think they might be fighting in the East by now.”

“Haha, not only was he polite, but he was a very kind young man. What’s your name?”

“Yes?”

“Oh, not you, but that barbarian.”

“Byon. I heard that it is Bjorn son of Thor.”

Hearing the answer, he shook his head and patted my forearm as if sacrilege.

“Thank you for answering. You look busy, so let’s go.”

“Yes, I hope you can achieve what you want.”

Whoops, why does the air feel so cold?

As soon as the conversation seemed to end, I bowed lightly and entered the aisle.

thump, thump.

When I heard the sound of an old man moving away behind my back, and then I couldn’t hear it anymore.

‘Oh, I almost fell off the liver.’

I started running with all my might.

Meanwhile at that time.

“What is the current situation on the Eastern Front?”

“As instructed, we are saving time by investing only a minimum amount of troops, and we can withdraw at any time by contacting us.”

Upon hearing the lieutenant wizard’s report, the silver-haired knight, Jerome Saint Red, nodded with satisfaction.

It was thanks to the successful completion of his first ‘special assignment’ after he took over as general manager.

I got the ‘Record Fragment Stone’, which was the first goal of the special mission.

And the side goal of reducing the power of Noark by causing infighting was also achieved.

“Send a message to the war mages immediately. After 10 minutes, we gather at the gathering place and return.”

“Yes.”

If the troops deployed in the East are left out, the forces of Orculis will spit out their wrath towards the already dead lord.

And the civil war will begin in earnest—

“I… … .”

Jerome nodded at the lieutenant’s voice.

A gesture that means if you have something to say, do it.

When permission was granted, the lieutenant asked in a cautious but polite voice.

“May I ask for the purpose of the necklace you are holding?”

“Information that is not permitted to you.”

Jerome replied stubbornly, putting the necklace in the box and tucking it into the subspace.

Then the lieutenant bowed his head as if he had made a mistake.

“Excuse me. Because the head of St. Red has a certain refined stone necklace… … . I swear, I didn’t know it was a special item. ”

It was just a question of curiosity, and he felt like he had no other intentions.

Jerome flinched at this.

“Jeong Seok’s necklace… … ? What does that mean?”

“… Yes?”

“Tell me more. Is this a gemstone necklace?”

Jerome took out the necklace again and showed it to the lieutenant.

And I got the same answer.

“Yes, for sure. It is a magic tool with high-grade refining stones embedded in it. Ah, refined stone refers to a crack stone that has been specially processed to make magic casting smoother… … .”

While speaking, the lieutenant kept his mouth shut.

It was because of his direct superior, Jerome’s chin, an eerie sound emanating from the chin.

“Yeah, I was deceived… … .”

The lieutenant bowed his head involuntarily.

It deserved it too.

Because the usual Jerome was a man who laughed haphazardly saying that it always happens even when he buys 10,000 stones for 1 million stones.

“… … Adjutant Avex, you must lead the army and return to the city first.”

“Yes? If it’s time for you, St. Red’s general… … .”

“I have work to do.”

Jerome left without answering and the lieutenant didn’t say anything and just watched.

It was the first time I had ever seen a manager so angry.

***

An underground sewer system that supports the water and sewage systems of Lafdonia.

Everyone who has been here thinks the same.

First of all, it is not enough to say that it smells bad, and the second is that the road is more complicated than any maze.

just like this

‘I mean, it’s a bad place no matter where you go.’

After running for a while along the long straight passage, the sewer climbed up the ladder.

As I climbed up after removing the steel structure similar to a manhole cover, I was greeted by a road divided into four sections from the start.

Of course, finding directions was not a problem.

It was because there were only one road full of traces that seemed to have already passed by dozens of people.

You just have to follow it as a milestone.

Well, there was another problem.

‘Damn sewer.’

Whether it was an area designed to allow only water to pass through or not, unlike the sewage area I experienced, there were no byways that could pass through.

No, strictly speaking, it’s not like there isn’t anything at all… … .

‘Now you are discriminating against barbarians even in the design of sewerage.’

A side road that is too narrow for a barbarian taller than 2m to pass.

squishy, crumpled.

In the end, I had no choice but to step on the water that reached the shin.

how long has it been

In the middle, the traces of the battle left on the wall began to come into view.

Novel from https://readwn.com

Most of them were sword marks carved into the walls.

The depths were all different, but the sword marks had one thing in common. The cut surface is very clean as if using a precision machine.

The identity of the person who left the sword could be roughly inferred.

The shallow ones would be Amelia, the deep ones would be him.

The leader of Orcules.

The traitor, Ricardo Luchenpraha.

“Twitter.”

Somehow I had a taste.

In the first plan we were going to implement together, we aimed to somehow get this guy out of the way and get it into the sewer.

Well, in the original history, when Amelia reunited with her childhood self in the sewer, she was being pursued by this guy.

However… … .

‘After all, I couldn’t take it off.’

Looking at the situation, it seems that it has not been successful.

After all, why are you doing such a useless thing?

The future is not something that can be changed.

‘He’s only strangely honest in this kind of thing.’

In a way, Amelia resembles a barbarian.

To the subject of being a human being, how strong is his stubbornness?

Besides, where is that?

Pretending to be reasonable, I do it all by myself, but there are also a lot of leftovers—

Quang-!

Then there was a loud noise in the distance, and the sewer shook.

Tadat-!

I speeded up.

***

The body has limits.

No matter how much you exercise and increase your strength, the maximum amount of power you can produce is set.

Therefore, the essence is the basis of the explorer.

Because this power exists in the world, explorers were able to fight against huge monsters with power beyond their limits.

But, that is so far.

“Are you finally ready to fight?”

Amelia felt helpless.

The greatly increased physical performance itself remains the same.

However, all abilities were sealed.

[The Source of Fire].

The ability to greatly increase natural regeneration at the cost of not receiving all healing effects, including potions.

[Self-replication].

The one that always gave me a numerical advantage in one-on-one situations.

All of the abilities that served as her wings in battle, such as [Power of the Abyss] and [Sura-gak], were destroyed.

Because of this one man standing in front of me.

“… … Why are you so obsessed with me?”

Amelia brought out the question she had been holding back.

Whatever it is, she didn’t understand.

He roamed the city for over two hours, trying to get the man out of the way, but he persistently caught up.

Even to the sewer here where the stench creeps up.

“Is it unexpected?”

Amelia nodded at the man’s question.

“Yeah, I just don’t understand. It would be more important to you to go to Seongju instead of following a woman like me, right?”

The royal family and the lord were trying to wipe out Orculis in an alliance.

However, this man, the commander and the best power in the world, leaves the front line and follows a woman he has no connection with?

Apart from knowing the result, the process was not at all convincing.

“That’s a funny question.”

He smiled so coldly.

“Human woman. An awl-shaped red aura that seems to specialize in daggers. These are all characteristics of the Knights of the Roses.”

“… … Knights of the Roses?”

“Did you come all the way here?”

Amelia was really embarrassed.

She knew what the Knights of the Roses were. A unit under the direct control of the royal family in charge of special missions such as assassination, infiltration, and dukes.

There are rumors that it was made up of only women, but there is no exact confirmation about it.

“You must be a newcomer? I mean, you must have asked me that question after seeing me.”

“No, I belong to the Knights of the Rose—”

“Abandon the thought of living.”

Amelia tried to talk to her, but to no avail.

“Because I don’t have any questions for you.”

A sword that flies while blocking conversation.

Amelia quickly pulled the Auror up and blocked it.

No, that was the moment I thought it was blocked.

Sigh-!

The right wrist holding the dagger was cut off and he fell into the sewer.

And almost at the same time.

Whik-!

The sword flew again.

The target target is the left wrist.

A cruel will to cut everything that could be cut was etched in his sword.

Quang-!

Amelia slashed her sword with a dagger carrying an auror and stepped back.

But did you expect that move?

The sword that was aiming at the left wrist bent like a snake as if using recoil and turned towards Amelia’s neck.

“… … !”

When she woke up, Amelia had suddenly gathered her back against the wall.

He felt the cool feel of the blade on his neck.

Kook-

As soon as the man pushed the blade in, blood flowed out with a stinging pain.

“You have a nice face.”

Amelia couldn’t breathe properly, let alone open her mouth to speak, as her airway was pressed down by the tip of her sword.

“It just suits you.”

Oxygen was depleted, and the brain became white.

Are you really dying?

No, then what will happen to my older sister and me as a child?

Obviously, according to the original history, I should have met the two with only injuries… … .

“… … .”

Amelia rolled her eyes and looked around.

As if looking for someone else who can solve this crisis.

‘… … Yandel.’

Realizing who she was looking for, Amelia smiled involuntarily.

He can’t come here.

Because I was given a drug that would last at least six hours and fed it myself.

You should have woken up by now, read the note, and arrived at Yeongjuseong. Well, if I had woken up a little earlier, I might have already got the item and went back to the original time.

No, it’s most likely already back.

Otherwise, I can’t explain it.

“Are you looking for a way to live?”

Even if you look around Amman, you can’t see an arrow.

As soon as that sword is pierced a little deeper, this life, which has been so long that it has been exhausted, will come to an end.

That is to say.

“Puh… … .”

History has changed.

Today he dies here.

Phil is the cause… … .

‘Because Bjorn Jandel is back.’

She excluded Yandel from this plan.

There were several reasons.

First of all, I didn’t want to owe a barbarian.

And he thought that if he could return to the original world using the fragments of records, he would be able to unravel the cause and effect.

Because the legend that it can change history doesn’t just happen.

Obviously, since it is an object with an unknown ability, I thought there would be an answer.

No, I was just expecting it.

It was as if a person who had been drifting in a sculpture boat was thirsty and drinking sea water.

But surprisingly.

“Why are you laughing?”

It worked.

Kwok.

As if the man was displeased, he pushed the sword a little further.

Death, which I thought I had always lived with, felt a little closer.

‘Yeah, you really succeeded in going back.’

Amelia closed her eyes.

And I thought.

“It hurts more.”

What will happen to my sisters after they die?

Without me, someone would surely die… … .

‘No, maybe it’ll end safely because I’m not there.’

It was an ending she would never know.

But if that’s the case, I’m happy, but somehow sad.

Kwok.

The sword pierced the flesh a little more.

The breath did not breathe, the thinking became dull.

I thought it was pretty good.

did my best.

So, you can rest now.

That was the moment I made up my mind.

“Behel—la ah ah ah!”

A familiar voice came from beyond the passage.
