Chapter 56 – District 1 (T2) (29)
8. District 1 (2 tracks) (29)
‘Ah…’
I thought I was used to fainting from pain since I was little, but it wasn’t at all. It was always painful, and it was always new.
‘Fuck.’
The double bath stuck to my lips. It wasn’t that I didn’t do it originally, but I didn’t do it that often, but after entering the dungeon, it became a habit in that short period of time. I was pissed off with the game, but how much more pissed would I be if I experienced it in real life?
No no
‘Anyway, what’s the status now…’
Once again, it was clear that he had fallen into near death. I was aware of the fact that I couldn’t kill him with a difference of 1 damage, came to the hyeonta dog, beat him up, and got caught by the boss. The awakening must have been completely resolved, the near-death debuff must have been applied, and if you touched it, you would be in a state of rummage. It wasn’t surprising.
‘I’d rather see it as fortunate.’
Fortunately, he attacked me. For putting a stigma on me in the first place. The boss is right before the turn, so I can draw a little aggro.
All of these things combined, I think I was able to come true as I wished.
‘From now on, I won’t be able to say that the game is not realistic. I’m talking about when I can play games.’
It wasn’t a dark lonely road, it wasn’t a nightmare, if I had to put it that way, I felt like I was in a similar situation to the first near death when I could only think about it.
‘I’ll just take all the pain at once, so I want to skip it…’
In The Long Terror, after a brief moment of fainting or an illustration of a suffering expression, it was passed on saying that the hero had fallen into a state of near death or was engulfed in fear. Because I went through the 4th wall and went through it myself, I felt once again that there were a lot of skips. Hey, The Long Terror, the leader in unkind and shitty games, turns out to be very user-friendly?
‘I’m worried about Kaya and Shay.’
I don’t know about Shay, who passed out, but Kaya wasn’t completely stunned. If so, chances are she saw me squeezed into the clutches of the boss, and if so, she would have been terribly shocked again. I knew that the life-and-death insurance would activate, so I was prepared, but Kaya wouldn’t know that… He must have suffered massive mental damage.
If she changes her position and thinks that Kaya or Shay have to see it like that, not once, but twice.
‘My heart won’t be left.’
But Kaya. You don’t know how lucky I am that I was attacked and not you. So, don’t think anything strange.
‘… So, does that mean I have to do that shit again?’
I tried to struggle mentally as I did last time, chewing on Mr. Descartes’ words. Should I say it feels like swimming in the ocean with a body that doesn’t feel anything. Even thinking about it, I couldn’t figure out what it felt like.
‘Kaya, Shay. Shay, Kaya.’
And the hands of fear.
The 50,000 thoughts that had spread out in all directions were gradually compressed into one.
I’m not dead. Kaya and Shay didn’t die either. However, it is the same right before death. Now that my turn is over and the boss’s turn is over, it’s Kaya’s turn.
Obviously 1 damage was not enough.
Even if Kaya touched it, that Son Byung-shin would scream in fear and search for it. Even if she failed, it was Shay’s turn next.
‘Wait. Shay now.’
Unlike Kaya, Shay was completely stunned. She didn’t pass out completely, even Kaya, but was unable to move her body.
‘Wait for a sec. Well, please. No way. Isn’t it?’
Completely knocked out physically and mentally, Kaya gives up the turn. And what if the fainted Shae gave up on the turn?
‘Could it be me? I have to wake up and finish it?’
Until the end, my mind screamed at the situation where I had to squeeze and squeeze again to the limit. It’s best for Kaya to come to her senses and strike the last blow, but as a captain, you should always keep the worst case in mind.
‘Sir baaaaal!!!’
I started struggling with all my might.
**
[Brightness: 0]
[The light completely goes out. Fear and darkness completely encroach on the dungeon.]
[The warriors lose their will to fight more quickly.]
[The monsters will have more fear.]
“Honey… Honey… !”
I couldn’t see ahead. My body ached terribly. However.
‘I, honey, the baby.’
My heart hurt even more. It seemed to be shattered.
Kaya was well aware that it was a dream or illusion. He couldn’t use such a soft tone, and there was no way he was living a sweet married life with the captain, and as a half-elf with congenital infertility, it was obviously impossible for him to have a child. Know. I know everything. Still, despite knowing everything… I never wanted to get out of it that way.
It was the worst. In the best moments, it fell into hell in an instant. I don’t know why I was seeing such a fantasy, but I wish I could see such a happy fantasy. If it’s a fantasy where impossible things can be done easily in real life, couldn’t you keep it a little longer?
Although it was an illusion.
A terrible monster in human clothing.
Killed himself
Killed the boss
Killed the captain and his own child.
The child that I could have had even in fantasy. Ruthlessly, it was pierced and killed.
Can’t forgive
Can never forgive
It wasn’t enough to destroy the happiest fantasy at the worst, the captain… Captain… !
“Honey… Oh no, boss… !”
The fantasy was terrifying. Once in that it is a lie that will be broken someday, and again in that it is so real that it gives a terrible sense of distance from reality even though you know it is a lie.
Kaya, whose heart was broken twice, looked for Hendrick while crying.
“Where, where are you… ? Answer, please answer… !”
But it was not visible The captain’s voice was not heard.
Enraged, Kaya fell into despair.
He couldn’t see an inch ahead, and he couldn’t feel the presence of the leader leading him. His own body is so injured that it is not strange to die.
Why.
Why.
Why can’t I be happy?
Why? Why? Why?
Why can’t I resist the things that hurt me? It’s this side that always suffers, so why can’t I even win?
Those monsters are terrible to the Goddess and ordinary people.
Why. Why.
“Why.”
Hit the floor An immense pain surged up from the fingertips and palms. When I gave it strength, the pain multiplied several times. However, even if it was several times that, it was not as much as the pain in the heart.
In the end, Kaya managed to wake up. He had a crushing grip on the handle of the mace, which he never let go.
The monster that had been screaming and talking nonsense was silent. Did you hide in the dark? It will. Everything was blurry, but the captain’s blow was dazzling. Even the monsters are driven to the brink of death by the captain’s great blow, holding their breath and guarding this side.
– I’m not dying. Why am I dying because you never die okay?
– Wake up!!! It’s an order!!!
“Okay. There’s no way the captain will just die in a place like this.”
The captain is right. If it’s the captain’s words, if it’s the captain’s order. It has to be done, and in the end it has to be kept.
It was Kaya’s truth, another belief.
“Where are you?”
Kaya ignored the pain and straightened his entire body. And he raised his mace.
“I asked where you are, man of false belief.”
He wasn’t sure if the direction was right. But Kaya didn’t hesitate and moved on. The soles of his feet were pierced with pain from countless blades. My body was begging me not to move any more.
“The man who said he believed in fear, put it in his mouth and wielded it as a weapon, was he scared?”
However, Kaya’s will was not broken.
The captain’s orders, the captain’s fate.
And to continue the destiny of himself and the captain.
I had to defeat that monster.
That ‘obsession’ was forcibly leading Kaya’s body.
“You look scared.”
Still no response from the monster, but she noticed. The mace covered in the monster’s blood and his own blood, and the extremely weak glow at the tip was pointing in one direction. And the direction was not very different from the direction she was originally going.
Tboob-
“It’s funny.”
Tboob-
“Just a moment ago, it was said that it oppresses us with fear, it kills us.”
Tboob-
With each of Kaya’s slow but confident steps, the fear and darkness that permeated her dungeon clung to her and her mace like mad.
“Pretending to be dead, holding your breath, fearing that you would die if someone found out where you were. It’s so funny.”
Tboob-
At the moment, unable to overcome her pain, she almost fell, but managed to keep her balance.
Just one step.
With just one step forward, this mace could strike the monster in the head.
With that one thought, Kaya straightened her half-bent knee.
“If you’re the one who cried out for fear so much, I think now, when the fear of death is approaching, is rather the best time… That’s right.”
Either this one or that one.
It’s a fact that everyone knows that brushing will cause death.
This place, filled with the aura of death, was a space that really fit the theme of fear.
‘After all, the limit of false belief.’
Her trust in Raella-sama, who guides her on the path she should take. And Hendrick and Eugene, who support my collapsing body, have another piece of faith.
Kaya’s two strong beliefs, leading from the front and pushing from the back, finally completed the last step.
“Everything.”
I couldn’t see the front, but I believed in my faith.
“According to the will of ‘God’.”
Kaya squeezed out all her remaining strength and swung her mace.
