Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer?

Chapter 280

Episode 280: Tell me (10)

“He’s a wizard.”

Gunther listened to the healed soldier and glanced at him lying down. Based on the soldier’s testimony, the person who was diagnosed with ‘overload and fainting due to magic overuse’ has been sleeping peacefully for over half a day.

Compared to how much blood he coughed up when he collapsed, he looked truly carefree.

The wizard who came out for a medical examination asked, ‘How are you alive!? At the point when I screamed, ‘My insides are so twisted?!’, my body may not have been in a completely peaceful state, anyway.

Compared to the squealing and trembling of most wizards who receive the same diagnosis, it seemed like a peaceful nap.

“You’re really sturdy for a wizard.”

“…I think it’s unacceptable for a traveler to be skinny.”

“No, that’s not what

I meant…” Gunther was a bit worried about the other person’s identity. This was because a wizard who stayed in a closet and did nothing but study and a magnificent skeleton did not go well with each other.

“It felt like my body was overly developed, even for a traveler.”

“This is my personal opinion, but wouldn’t it be possible to do that if you work as a mercenary? Just because he’s a wandering wizard doesn’t mean he doesn’t have to fight, so he must have used his body often.”

“Hmm….”

Did you hear something while being saved, or did you build a lot of intimacy while receiving help?

Despite the class difference between them, the soldier somewhat desperately defended the wizard. Even considering that Günther usually treats soldiers without courtesy and is not the type to show off his status, it was an unusual incident.

“It looks like we’ve become very close friends?”

“…I’m sorry, Lord Soseong.”

“Oh no no. Don’t bow down. I didn’t mean to get people’s attention, I just said it without thinking. “I would defend my comrade with whom I went through a forest full of demons if he were suspected.”

Moreover, what you say is not wrong. So I have no intention of saying anything. I’m just curious as to why I like wizards so much and the question, ‘Is it really like that?’

“…It would be nice to see your hands.”

“yes?”

“no.”

There was no need to take off the top or take it off during the examination. At most, all I had to do was feel the pulse of my wrist—if only I could check the shape of the calluses on my hand, I would be certain.

However, the former seems too perverted and it is against etiquette to remove the gloves of a sleeping person to check their hands. Günther suppressed his curiosity as much as possible to preserve his dignity.

I flinch. The opponent finally made his move.

“Are you awake? “Then you go and rest for now.”

“…yes.”

If the wizard has awakened, there is no need to interrogate the soldiers anymore. He let the soldier rest and waited for the wizard to fully wake up.

“hmm.”

The subdued voice let out a slight sigh and the wheat-colored eyelashes moved. When it is slightly open, the color of the pupil visible through the white of the eye is not clearly visible due to the sunlight seeping in through the window.

“ah.”

Also, that was covered up again. The person covering his eyes with his hand said, “Oh?” He made a noise and fumbled around with his other hand. It seemed like he was looking for something.

“The glasses are on the nightstand on the right.”

“…!”

Since my mother used to wear glasses, I know a little bit what it feels like to look for glasses as soon as you wake up. Günther was kind enough to tell us its location.

The other person immediately turned to find the nightstand on the right.

“Thank you… I was surprised you lost it.”

The person who finally found the glasses greeted me with a faint smile. The eyes where the glasses were just placed were green.

I think my eye color was lighter than that earlier. Günter felt a slight sense of discomfort, but quickly let it go. The shallow doubts that could not even be distilled into sentences were truly insignificant compared to the nostalgia for the past evoked by green eyes and wheat-colored hair.

“It’s so similar that it makes me turn away.”

“yes?”

“But that’s not true.”

If it was really Atya, she wouldn’t have made such a stupid noise. ‘It can’t be. There’s no way two of these handsome faces exist in the world, right?’ He’s probably going to blurt out something like that.

“…okay. “There’s no way I’m coming back now.”

But still.

Even though this result was already expected.

Günther became a little depressed. It was a similar feeling to having placed my hopes on Atya, even though I knew that her hair wasn’t curly, that it was a little darker than mine, that she didn’t wear glasses, and that she couldn’t use magic at all.

“Hey you.”

He missed Sir Amber’s four siblings, who were like his own siblings, that much.

“Ah yes.”

“Do you have anything to prove your identity?”

“…no.”

“As expected.”

However, I cannot completely postpone work because I am immersed in those emotions.

In any case, he may not be able to become a good castle lord at the point where he puts in the effort, but isn’t there a difference between heaven and earth between what he does and what he doesn’t do?

Günther tried to ignore his depression and threw himself into his work.

“If you do that, you are not worthy of entering this city. That’s the way it is.”

A young man with a pale complexion, probably not in good condition, listened to him.

“There is evidence that he cooperated with Munmund’s soldiers and that he is a wizard. “Considering the special circumstances of the present, we will temporarily allow you to stay in Munmund.”

Because it looked strangely young—even though it was bigger than him—Günther unconsciously changed his tone to be more friendly. It was truly something I did unconsciously.

“However, this is a temporary permission and does not mean that freedom is granted. Since you are a wizard and Munmund is currently in a state of war, this is a natural procedure. “I believe there will be no complaints.”

Now that I look at it… I think it looks more like Pasha than Atya.

Günther thought of this reflexively. Even to him, it was a truly random and absurd idea.

“So there are two options given to you. One is to stay in a guard prison until the state of war ends, and the second is to be employed by this city as a wizard.”

That’s because, unlike Atya, who inherited Sir Amber’s brown hair, her younger brother Pasha’s hair was a muted gray. Even his eyes were gray, the same color as his hair, so there was nothing to compare with those green eyes.

“Of course, being imprisoned by the guards will not mean you will be treated like a criminal. Meals will be provided at every meal, and beds will be provided identical to those used by soldiers. Some freedom is also available at the guard’s discretion. “The important thing is that you just have to move under surveillance.”

Of course, the facial features are similar. It was only natural since Atya and Pasha were brothers and that young man looked a lot like Atya.

“On the other hand, if I accept the employment….”

Strangely, Pasha came to mind. At first, only Atya came to mind, but once I thought about it, it was Pasha’s landslide victory.

“In that case…”

For example, if little Pasha grew up to be an adult with round cheeks and firm cheeks in hopes of becoming like his father. If only the hair and eye colors changed there. Or, if that young man had gray hair like the one that passed by in Hudelen.

Maybe it was like that.

“I will take care of your convenience so that you can live as comfortably as possible.”

I just vaguely imagined something like that.

Gunter bit the inside of his mouth as he thought of the boy who was like his own younger brother.

Following damn Atya, I also wanted to see Pasha and Lina. The second child, Alya. Sir Amber’s wife, who was waiting at home with them. Even Sir Amber, who opened the door at any time.

“…They say it’s for your convenience.”

However, it seems that the longing was so strong that he made a mistake. Günter felt like he missed the other person’s recitation.

“There are a lot of manpower to fight as demons are besieging the city, so there’s nothing wrong with that. If you take one soldier and break through that siege, you’re probably not skilled enough, so what kind of people wouldn’t show some convenience to a wizard like that? In the end, it will be mutually beneficial.”

“That’s… I see.”

Still, I packed it somehow. Günther looked at the young man’s troubled face and waited for his choice.

Either way, I don’t think it will harm Munmund. If I was caught by my old man, I would have told him not to make a hasty judgment! I thought I would have heard a roar.

“I… I would like to choose the latter.”

“I want to?”

Then the young man opened his mouth. Yu Han’s impression was a little embarrassed and troubled, and he smiled.

“Maybe it’s a side effect of using too much magic, but I can’t control my magic at all…”

“Ah.”

That could be it. I understand that the physical overload caused by overuse of magic lasts for quite a long time. In the case of the young man, I also heard that he barely escaped death.

So Gunter nodded his head at what the other person said.

“We can take that into account. “In the first place, I didn’t expect you to become a powerful wizard right away.”

“Is that so?”

“After all, how can you trust a wizard who does not belong to the Magic Tower or has any certification? “You have to go through the minimum verification process.”

“…uh.”

“Even if you want to trust me anyway, you have to understand the magic you can use and then decide on placement. So, if you are willing to be hired, I will bring you a magician from the Magic Tower. Even if you can’t use magic, you will be able to test the depth of your knowledge.”

Depending on the wizard, there are special attack spells and defensive spells, and they vary greatly. For that purpose, the verification process is essential. When I pinched it, the young man’s expression became a little paler.

Perhaps because he was a wandering wizard, he seemed to have no knowledge of this area.

If that’s the case, then you must have been surprised by the harsh treatment that has been shown so far. But that really can’t be helped. There were truly many terrible things that a devil worshiper wizard could do if he entered the city.

He is not doing this because he wants to, but because he has to do this to prevent an emergency.

“I’ll give you more time to think about it until dinner.”

Still, he looks a bit young and has never experienced anything like this, so it might be better to cut him some slack. I don’t think I’ll get a positive answer if I keep pushing it like this.

“Please come in from outside.”

“yes.”

“Wizard, this is the soldier who will watch over you. Also, there is a possibility that you will be executed as soon as the guard reports that there has been disturbing activity. “I hope you will cooperate to prevent such a thing from happening.”

“…Ah yes.”

“…I don’t think you can go anywhere in that condition, but I’m telling you just in case. Don’t leave the room and don’t be suspicious. If you don’t do that, you will be treated as you please.”

“yes.”

Günter rolled his eyes at the wizard who seemed so innocent and innocent.

It looks really harmless. If the old man had heard him, he would have shouted, ‘I wouldn’t have told you not to try to figure out people based on impressions alone!’ For a moment, the sound echoed in his mind.

Well, no matter how much of a ghost he is, he can’t hear what’s in his heart, so it doesn’t matter in the end.

* * *

[As expected, human power is concentrated.]

Sloth or Duke. The master of dreams and idleness muttered softly on his donkey. The person who hears those words right next to him is sitting upright on the palanquin carried by the chimera.

[Why are you hitting on me so openly? Are you going to hit it? I guess it’s natural for people to focus on me since I’m provoking it.]

I’m really jealous of that palanquin. Duke felt a little envious, but soon gave up. Getting the palanquin itself is easy, but making a chimera that neither eats nor sleeps and will pull the palanquin is a very cumbersome and complicated task.

So, if you’re going to work like that, it’ll be less annoying to keep riding the servants you’ve already acquired. If necessary, you can connect something like a cart to it.

[So what are you going to do now?]

With that in mind, the Duke completely stretched out on his donkey. Snap. The moment the donkey stepped on the ground, more layers of material on the ground flew out in all directions.

[I don’t think it would be enough to give them all, right?]

That is blood. There was a lot of blood that was trying to form a blood stream and pool the blood.

[Just fill in what is lacking.]

[With what? Oh please don’t tell me you’re going to sacrifice me. It’s true that I’m weaker than you, but I won’t just die.]

Bye. The donkey took another step and trampled on something. They were the bones and flesh of the miscellaneous things that had not been able to carry out the order to conquer until now.

[Don’t worry, you lazy thing. Your existence is more valuable to be used alive to torment humans than to be used as a sacrifice.] [

…That’s a good thing.]

But is that pitiful? It wasn’t like that.

Even the Duke himself was a low-level demon who was used as expendable goods.

[But then what should I use it for?]

So, it was good for the Duke as long as he didn’t become a sacrifice. Above the millions of corpses, the Duke stretched his drowsy eyes even further.

[If you could use your natural strength, it wouldn’t be a problem to take it down… This is outside the Demon Station. Would it require more cost?]

[If you want to create variables, you have to pay a certain price.]

[…?]

So I asked. What will you pay for?

The Duke quietly tensed his head as he answered the Zen question, but soon realized something.

[Wait, you?]

There is nothing here that could be sacrificed. Unless they offer themselves.

Yes, there is no other alternative unless you sacrifice yourself.

[Do you need to go that far…?]

But why?

[Belphegor: How long has it been since we fought here?]

[Um… It’s been a while, right?]

[So… So, during that long period of time, have we been able to win?]

[… Something that could turn the game around? There wasn’t anything major, but it was steadily encroaching. If it were like this, we would have won, right?]

[It would have been so before anger killed jealousy and stinginess.]

Sloth Belphegor trembled for a moment at the other person’s words. That wasn’t wrong. Now that one of the great devils has betrayed and the two have evaporated, Seunggi has leaned towards the other world.

The power of this god that restrains them has become strong enough to give revelation directly even to the agent.

[I waited a long time. I’ve waited too long.]

But is it still worth doing this? It would be better if I gave up, if I just quit now and go back to their world…

[Satan made a promise to me. After conquering this world, I will gift my hometown to myself.]

[…Oh.]

[I will not be patient any longer.]

But Satan will not give up on this world. So pride will also give up on this world. won’t do it

Belphegor felt like crying.
