Episode 345 Comeback (4)

Soul Queens finally took out the white flag.

It seems that I realized how foolish it was to have the upper hand in my relationship… … .

“Fisit, you are a funny woman. When he revealed the GM’s identity, he came out boldly, and he curled up as soon as he talked about himself.”

The queen did not respond to the clown’s scornful words, and endured it. Considering the status she had built in a short time at the round table, it seemed somewhat pathetic.

However… … .

‘It’s a pity it ends like this.’

It is foolish to just accept surrender here.

Because Soul Queens seemed to be sensitive to rank.

It would be good to make a proper engraving on this occasion.

Just like I did to the goblin I met in the cave the day I was called into this world.

Who’s Hugo?

who is below.

“I… … .”

I said, tapping the chair with my index finger once more.

“Why?”

Soul Queens hesitated at the short question, and answered with a small voice.

“… If you stop here, we will not be hostile to you.”

A word that means not to be banished in the community, as well as not to criticize GM for revealing the identity of GM in the past.

I laughed coldly at the euphemism not like her.

After all, isn’t this like an offer to an equal?

“I haven’t learned it yet.”

Saying that, Tuk-tuk tapped the chair base with his index finger once more.

Only if there is a difference from before.

This time, he did not hide his unpleasant feelings.

“… If there is anything you want, please tell me.”

Soul Queens looked at me and said earnestly.

therefore… … .

“I have nothing to ask of you.”

She didn’t seem to understand what I was saying, so I made it clear.

“Also, I am not afraid of you.”

At least on the surface it is.

If it was even a little bit difficult to pretend to be with the management team, would you have hit me like this? In their eyes, I will only look like a madman out of control.

so… … .

“I will ask you one last time.”

I asked Soul Queens again.

“Why should I?”

“That, that… … .”

Of course, she didn’t give a reason.

Well, the people she saw as the target of the transaction must all have their own wishes. It would be natural for the smooth tongue to harden at the type of person you’ve never seen before.

However… … .

“I… … .”

She was a smart woman in many ways.

Threats don’t work, and they don’t even ask for compensation.

An opponent who is just trying to keep punishing as if even this moment is a fun joke.

How do I convince someone like that?

As she continued to ponder for a long time, she came to an answer.

Abandoning the idea of persuasion.

and… … .

“wrong… I did… … .”

wishing for mercy.

The last resort the weak can offer to the strong.

“please forgive me… … .”

“Looks like that stupid woman has finally figured out where she is. Fishet.”

Ignoring the ridicule of the clown, Soul Queens lowered their posture as I told the antlers earlier.

Then he looked up at me and vomited hard.

“Never again, investigator-sama… It’s a matter of breaking your heart… No, I will… … . So please, forgive me for my mistakes today… … .”

To be honest, I was quite impressed.

Anyway, I didn’t know it would come out this way. Was it that much of a shock to you that you knew everything about them?

“… … .”

“… … .”

When I looked around, the members did not even open their mouths and glanced alternately at me and Soul Queens.

I wonder if I will accept her apology.

‘Sequencing would have been enough… … .’

I said looking down at Soul Queens.

“It’s better.”

yes this is it

***

“The queen’s nickname is Soul Queens. And I won’t tell you Soul Queens’ real name.”

I put my hand on the round table again to finish my turn, and catch a green light.

“Whew… … .”

At the same time, the members who were watching the situation to see if the tension was relieved took a deep breath.

This was the same with Soul Queens.

“thank… do… … .”

A thank you that you would have done with the feeling of peeling your own skin with your own hands. I didn’t bother to answer, so a little awkward time followed.

It was the antlers that carefully broke the air.

“… What about the meeting? Are you going to continue?”

The second lap ended when I finished my turn.

There were times when it went around a lot, four or five times, but it is not strange that the meeting ended at this level.

If so, what decisions will they make?

“Hey, I’ll just stop here… … .”

The Soul Queens, who had been exasperated once, looked at me and said so.

When I tell them not to go for some reason, I say, ‘Yes… … .’ It seems like it will remain… … .

Nothing will change if there’s only one left.

“Then, that’s all I’m doing here… … .”

The goblin, who barely passed after receiving a red light twice on this wheel, declared not to participate, and naturally flowed toward the end of the rally.

‘It’s over already… … .’

It was a bit disappointing that the round table, which made a comeback after two years and six months, ended in two rounds, but it was unavoidable.

‘Still, I’ve shown my face today, so next month I’ll bring something more interesting.’

“… Fisit, then, next month, let’s all prepare a little harder. Oh, of course, on the assumption that Mr. Susa will visit this place again!”

The clown looked down at me while pretending to be talking to other members.

It was an act worth looking at a little cutely.

What I really wanted to say was whether I would come again next time.

Whoops.

I didn’t answer the clown’s question, as it was not a good idea to answer kindly, so I left the round table.

and… … .

“Whoa… … .”

As soon as he returned to Hansoo Lee’s room, he took a deep breath and lay down on the bed.

Perhaps it was the effect of the life I had written earlier, the fatigue was considerable.

‘I’m going to sleep until tomorrow night, almost fainting.’

Of course, that was the future me, so the present me continued to do what I could without a break.

First of all, the organization of information.

‘Since we played like that today, I don’t think there will be anyone who thinks I am Bjorn Yandel right now… … .’

I replayed what happened at the round table.

The comeback stage seemed to go well, but it wasn’t perfect. That’s right, it’s impossible to pretend to be dead and live in the shadows forever, isn’t it?

‘As soon as the reincarnation is known, the same suspicion will arise immediately.’

Of course, there are plenty of ways to deal with this.

It’s because I have a lot of cards where I can bluff while traveling to the past.

‘You can think about this part then… … .’

There was something else that really mattered.

No, to be honest, I almost lost my mentality because of it during the round table.

[The first source was Misha Karlstein, maybe that woman?]

Novel from https://readwn.com

Missha Karlstein.

Why did he make such a rumor?

[Isn’t that what it is? That woman is now one of Lee Baek-ho’s colleagues.]

And how did he become Lee Baek-ho’s colleague?

Even if you use your imagination in Amman, you can’t easily come up with a causal link.

However, let’s just make a guess.

[Lee Baek-ho has the Resurrection Stone.]

I think this will be the key point.

For example, there are cases where Misha had no choice but to hold hands with Baekho Lee to save me.

‘… Is that too much of my hope?’

Ha, I’ll send you back even if it’s only a year early.

The two-and-a-half-year gap feels big again, and the cramping grows.

But what can I do, this is what happened.

‘Anyway, if Misha’s goal is to save me… … . What is Lee Baek-ho’s goal?’

Well, I don’t know.

There is still too little information.

The only thing we have in common is that we are the same Korean, and in fact, we only had a short conversation with Lee Baek-ho.

We never even had an honest conversation.

‘… I’ll think about this again after I know more about Lee Baek-ho.’

I closed my eyes and continued to organize.

GM, Auril Gavis, Amelia, and Noark and the Royal Family and so on. There were plenty of things to think about, no matter what came first.

“… … .”

After brainstorming for a long time and contemplating as it flows, I sat back at the computer and spent time reading the posts I hadn’t checked before.

how long has it passed

‘I thought GM or Soul Queens would send me a note or something, but there is no such thing.’

I moved the cursor without hesitation.

It doesn’t look like anything great will come out of a closer look here, and there’s not much time left until the community closes.

Click.

When I pressed the logout button, my eyes flashed, and darkness fell before long.

A bedroom with all the windows on all sides blocked by boards so that no moonlight can see in.

“Hehe, my eyes are open… … .”

Erwen was looking down at me.

***

Erwen Fornacci di Tersia.

The owner of the pure blood of the time, and the contractor of the king of spirits.

A member of the Chilgang, who was given the ‘Shinmokgung’, a treasure of the fairy, as a token of that achievement, and was also active in the war and earned the nickname of “Furry of Blood”.

and… … .

[Fisset, what the hell is that crazy girl up to?]

[I don’t know what it is, but a wind of blood will blow again.]

The only woman among my colleagues who gave everything for my revenge.

[No matter what anyone says, to me, you are Bjorn Yandel.]

The woman who said it had nothing to do with whether it was a demon or not.

However, it was difficult to feel grateful and moved for that dedication.

Because it was too much.

If so, why is he so obsessed with me?

At first, I thought it was just because of the obsession stats.

Goblin Archer, Steelhill Chaser, Carnivaro.

All of these three essences that Erwen ate had the stat ‘obsession’ attached to them.

Soon after her sister’s death, another close person died, so I thought this might have been a catalyst.

However… … .

“mister… If you all slept… Wanna go for a walk? Oh, the moon is beautiful today… … .”

That’s Erwen from 2 years and 6 months ago.

Erwen, who had received so much support from his clan that even the sons of nobles would cry, had already changed most of his essence.

The problem was that the change wasn’t very positive.

The patrolman Ertes from Golem Island on the 6th floor.

Here, the defense mechanism is +45.

Kalban, a wolf monster with the peculiar property of being a non-bearer during the day, but turning into a forerunner at night.

Here, Impulse +30 and Distrust +30.

Possession +24 is added to Metcrow, a rank 4 monster, and control by -30 and lack of +40 are added to the other two essences.

It’s not a stat that causes a big mental problem if you look at each one, but it’s only natural that when you gather this much, it affects your real life.

So, after realizing this, I was careful not to irritate Erwen.

It was decided that if he turned his eyes away, the situation could worsen out of control.

Yes, so far it has been.

However… … .

“Oh right… … ! I also bought a necklace… … . With this, I can know where you are anytime, anywhere—”

How long can I delay it?

This isn’t my taste either.

tuk.

I slapped Erwen’s hand rough as he touched my body without hesitation.

“… … … uh?”

Erwen looked bewildered at first glance.

“Ah, uncle… Woah, are you mad? how… why… … ?”

Erwen, who trembled as if confused, looked for the cause of my change from the outside.

“Come to think of it… in the living room… The planks were a little torn.”

It was so cramped that I was afraid to just tear it off.

But would it have been different for him?

“Amelia Rainwales. That girl… … ? Did she come? So, uncle… … .”

Erwen unfolded an unreasonable delusion, and began to tremble.

At some point, life gleamed in his eyes.

To be honest, doing that in the middle of the night made my neck numb.

However… … .

“Amelia didn’t come.”

So what do you mean?

It goes against my beliefs to run away because it’s scary and gritty.

Even when I was framed and imprisoned in the guild dungeon.

Even when I ran into a dragon killer in Larkaz’s Labyrinth.

Even in the battle of Noark, which gained fame as a giant.

Because I always bumped into each other head-on, I was able to survive.

so that.

“why… why… Are you still calling her by her first name?”

Answer the question without hesitation.

“Because it’s my colleague.”

Erwen’s reaction came after a short break.

“… That’s it! Ah, I’ll be there from now on, so I told my sister and I that such a woman doesn’t need blood… … !”

Yes, that’s what I said.

By the way.

“Why do you decide that?”

“That, that… … .”

Erwen was speechless.

It wasn’t particularly annoying.

Perhaps it was because he was wearing a detective mask just a few hours ago, the conversation continued naturally.

“Not spoiled.”

“… … !”

Erwen’s eyes widened wide.

At that moment, I woke up a muscle that had been sleeping.

By the way, what would a child with an unstable mental state do now?

“… … who are you?”

“It’s Bjorn Yandel.”

“Hey, that’s a lie… It’s a demon… … .”

Soon, a dark aura began to vibrate from Erwen’s body.

It was the spirit of darkness that became Erwen’s main specialty.

thump thump thump.

Sensing the crisis, my heart raced like crazy.

I was prepared, but when I was standing in front of it, I felt a lot of pressure.

However, the more I did, the more I remembered.

‘who am I?’

A barbarian warrior who overcame all kinds of adversity.

Bjorn, son of the giant, Yandel.

The only user who cleared the original difficulty.

The Absolute of the Round Table with the heart of a lion.

wow.

As soon as I remembered my identity that I had forgotten for a while, my heart magnified and courage surged.

So before this heart cools down.

“Gee, it’s not too late now, so tell me. Now, I made a mistake in my sleep—”

“Erwen Fornacci di Tersia.”

I told her.

“There is a problem in your head right now.”

Yes, if there is a problem, the only option is to fix it.

“Don’t talk, go ahead.”

in the way I do best.
