Chapter 1634 – Together
“Huh?”
She looked at me with a puzzled look, and while giving me a look, she swung her spear and struck the monster made of mechanical parts.
Oh my gosh-
Oh. Ears.
The sound that comes from hitting something very hard. No, a roar took over the world.
Obviously. When I pierced it earlier, it would have been a normal piercing.
Grrrr. The blue man shook her hand, raised her eyes and grinned.
“Ha. This bastard…! Better than before…!”
That moment.
Whiooooo-!
Fog swept the world.
Coo coo coo!
It feels like I will be swept away by a storm of fog that is like a rough river.
In such a strong wind that it was difficult to even open my eyes. The ice monsters that were standing still and the machine monsters that were mushrooming in numbers became transparent.
“Whoop.”
The blue man took a deep breath, and I was shocked. She grabbed her wrist.
For a moment she was about to hit me, but she stopped when she realized I had no intention of attacking her.
But. The gaze is fierce.
It’s a face that asks what kind of plan you have.
Kugugu-!!
The fog storm is getting stronger.
It was around this time that I started to wonder if something big would happen. The fog finally started to subside.
Whiooooo…
The world where the fog cleared was sunny again.
As I looked ahead, the word déjà vu came to mind.
A child playing near a construction site.
Workers who chase these children out because they are dangerous and work in annoyance.
The women who assist the workers and the lively energy that resonates throughout the village.
It seems as if the carnage and strangeness from earlier were a lie. The world had returned to its original state.
I have sensed it. The presence of Caesar, who died earlier, can also be felt from afar.
Chuck!!
Before I had time to finish my thought, the tip of the spear was aimed at the nape of my neck.
I think she originally planned to stab me, but she stopped midway.
That’s right. She probably doesn’t want to die either.
“Hoo…?”
The blue woman smirked when she saw my sword aimed at the back of her neck.
She raised the corners of her mouth.
A brief standoff. The first to speak was a young woman.
“How long have you been here?”
“What about you?”
After being silent for a moment, she said.
“It’s one month.”
“I guess I’d be like that too.”
Coo. The blade of the spear was about to dig into my skin, so I tilted my head slightly.
The blue woman growled.
“You’re lying so calmly. Isn’t today your first time in this town?”
“Yes.”
When she nodded, the blue woman smiled even more. Why was he grinning earlier?
You are a person who lives happily in this world.
“This is my first time here. How did you know about the reset?”
“I felt a connection between those monsters and the villagers.”
Every time this blue woman killed people, the strange energy, or more precisely, the energy of ‘divine power’, became stronger.
Furthermore. This woman slaughtered people so easily.
Because her temperament looks so fierce, you might be tempted to say, “Oh, she’s just that kind of bitch,” But this village is an important bridge between the demon world and the human world.
If you kill a human in such a place, the conflict between the human world and the demon world will escalate to the extreme, and this woman, the attacker, will not be able to avoid criticism and anger in the demon world.
And above all. Residents’ reactions.
They showed the reaction of an ordinary person when attacked.
I thought that the reason the residents could not sense the abnormal situation in the village might have been because they were brainwashed and manipulated.
But as I saw earlier. They had their own will.
There is no way that normal people would not have noticed something strange about the situation in the village after being trapped for more than a month.
So I started a family.
What if the memory was erased?
Precisely, at what point is the memory recurring?
If that’s the case. This explains the doubts I felt.
If I hadn’t felt a connection between those monsters and the villagers, I wouldn’t have swung my sword.
The blue woman stared at me and then took a step behind her.
Did you understand what I said?
That can’t be possible.
She pretends.
She took a fighting stance.
“You disturbed me. Die.”
“I think I actually helped you?”
“Help? What?”
“You couldn’t pierce that machine guy’s skin earlier, right?”
Wiggle. The blue woman’s eyebrows move for a moment, and then the corners of her mouth raise a smile.
I keep grinning.
This woman. From now on, let’s call him Hijuk.
“Are you thinking that you have done me a favor?”
“I’ll be honest.”
“Tell me.”
I pretend.
Pointed at her with her finger.
“If you had stayed that way, you would have definitely won someday.”
“Ha!!”
He snorted and immediately said, “Huh…?” It became a strange face.
“… Isn’t it the opposite?”
“No. That is the correct assessment.”
If it were the woman in front of me, I would have definitely defeated those monster-like monsters at some point.
To Hijuk, she feels both the greatness she felt when she saw Kai Tsuna and the intangible figure, and the despair she felt when she saw the disaster in human form called the Four Great Demon Lords.
Plus this woman. It seems like her head is spinning in her own way.
This will never happen. This means that she is not a woman who will throw herself into something she has no chance of winning.
Maybe. She probably thought she had a chance of winning, and she was probably right.
But.
“You would have had to take a very, very long time.”
“What was that like?”
I clicked my tongue at the guy who was grinning again, asking if I could just win at the end.
“Boring is the problem.”
“Hang?”
“You. It looks like you killed people to summon those monsters earlier. Do you mind repeating that process for hundreds of years?”
“…”
“Ah. You don’t have to tell me. You can do it. Probably. It won’t be very fun.”
The same goes for games.
Catching mobs is fun when you first level up, but doing it over and over again in an unchanging situation is a task that can never be called fun.
I am the type of person who enjoys such work, but just looking at the grin in front of me is the type of person who would hate that type of work.
I will do it if necessary.
You probably don’t want to do that if possible.
He was silent for a moment and then opened his mouth.
“So? Do you know any other way?”
“We have to find a way from now on.”
“Ha. Just talk nonsense. Why don’t you come up with some basis?”
It’s the basis.
“Evidence means proving that I have the ability to significantly reduce tedious processes, right?”
“I guess so.”
“You. And those monsters from earlier have the ability to become stronger the more they fight.”
As I grinned and fought with those monsters earlier, my energy grew stronger.
What he was saying earlier was decisive.
There was silence for a moment.
“Did you get it right?”
Smirking remained silent for a while this time.
And then she lowered her window.
“Okay. Explain it to me.”
“The explanation is boring, so let’s move it ourselves… Ah.”
I looked down at my stomach. Growling soon. A sound rang out.
When I think about it, I was so worried yesterday that I would be hated by Meichi that I didn’t even eat properly.
“First of all, shall we go get something to eat?”
She glared at me with her bewildered face and smiled.
She put her spear on her shoulder.
I’ve only seen it now, but it was very sexy because she was wearing quite revealing clothes.
“Okay. Let’s go.”
Quickly. Hijuki took the lead.
“Ah. Please call me Adele.”
Wee. His smile paused.
“It’s Adele.”
“I will call you Mr. Hijuk.”
“?”
She was like for a moment what bullshit. She looked at me with a questioning look on her face, but then she said that.
She nodded.
“Oh. That’s right. Let me correct one thing.”
Smirking, she raised her finger and pointed at the sky.
“Those things I mentioned earlier are not monsters, but legends.”
“Story?”
“Two of the only four folk tales that exist in the world, deliberately released by some idiots while escaping.”
Hmm.
It’s just as Kaits guessed.
And also.
This woman. The identity of the grin.
He is the ‘demon king of battle.’
According to information, she is an extreme battle fanatic. The reason she followed my advice was not just because she was convinced by my opinion.
Besides the monster, there is another annoying enemy right next to you. They’re probably trying to monitor the situation.
He’s not just a battle fanatic, he’s even scarier.
At that time, Hijukgi said.
“And one more thing.”
“Yes?”
“Don’t be polite. It gives me goosebumps.”
I tsk. I clicked my tongue and looked at the back of the man who was leading the way for a moment and then walked away.
“So!! When are you going to give me the bolts?! Did you order the Hart family hinges?!?!”
The restaurant owner, who was yelling at his staff, said, “Ew! I’ll have to call you myself!” He said and walked somewhere.
After a while I was listening. The phone call I heard a few hours ago was echoing through the store.
The sound was soon drowned out by the waa-gu-wa-gu sound made by the grin.
“Human cooking is also quite good.”
After eating, boom! The man with his legs on the table smiled in satisfaction. There was a pile of her meat bones next to her feet.
It’s such a good food.
But this person. I was barefoot.
What can I say overall? It is a sophisticated expression of the concept of ‘a warrior of a certain tribe.’
The costume had a bold design that generously exposed the thighs, shoulders, and cleavage, and the arms, wrists, and thighs were irregularly bandaged.
Also. The body is very nice.
It has a double meaning.
She has a perfect body, both as a woman and as a warrior.
Of all the people I know, Maiya is probably the closest to this guy.
Overall, it exudes a dangerous, sexy, and decadent vibe.
In particular, the bloody decoration caught my eye. Around her neck she wears a necklace that looks like hundreds of miniaturized human skulls.
I said, looking at the necklace that gave off her strange energy.
“That meat was quite expensive. You have money, right? Is this Dutch pay?”
“Hang?”
A grin raising his eyebrows as if asking what kind of bullshit he was talking about. I am a gender egalitarian.
“You can just kill me, give me money?”
Huh. Sorry.
You’re the one who thinks it’s okay to stab the bamboo spear equally.
“Is it okay? I’ll just pay.”
“It’s okay. I was going to kill them anyway.”
“Why? To meet those tales?”
“Yes. Just as you said, the humans in this village have a weak connection to that tale. I think they have become some kind of familiars.”
“So you killed him?”
“Okay.”
“Huh. You were a spectacular bitch.”
“Hey.”
She opened her eyes fiercely.
The moment I wanted to curse, Hijuki said.
“Just speak informally.”
“Okay, bitch.”
“…”
Should I kill him? I asked her, pointing to her boss, with a genuinely worried look on her face.
“By any chance. That guy. Did he torture you too?”
“Huh? Oh? Oh, I cut off her arm and saw her reaction.”
“Aha. If you kill a villager, the Seolhwa will reveal itself, so you wanted to see what the reaction would be like when it caused a disappearance in the body?”
“No? He got really annoyed because I didn’t pay. He got angry and went to call me calmly, so I stabbed him in the back.”
“Wow.”
That screaming phone call was definitely because of him.
But. With this story, a possibility arose.
Phone calls with the same content came periodically from the village of Bridge of Peace, which was covered in fog.
That. Residents repeated the same behavior every time it was reset, so they received calls with the same content.
But. When the president was hit by a spear, I heard a scream, which was not the usual content.
In other words. You can use the phone here to inform the outside world about the situation inside.
I guess I’ll take the opportunity and call Kaits.
“Then let’s get up.”
“Is it a fight?”
“I’m going to go investigate. Ah. Before that, I want to ask, have you checked what the boundaries are?”
“Border?”
Smirking tilted his head.
“This village is divided by fog right now. What about that fog?”
“I didn’t pay any attention once I came in.”
“Okay. Let’s go there first.”
I turned my back and took the lead, then immediately looked back.
He was looking at me with a grin.
“You’re good at acting. I’m laughing.”
“Aang?”
What is it?
You were trying to stab me right now.
“Let’s go.”
I turned my back again.
I didn’t get stabbed this time.
Boundary. We reached the fog that separated the guard post from the village.
Although it was described as a fog, the guard post and the scenery beyond were clearly visible.
This is true. Even though this village was being reset, the residents were unlikely to be suspicious.
I immediately stretched out my hand.
Fluttering-
“Oh?”
The air shakes like ripples in water. Half of my arm was gone.
I guess. This membrane seems to be connected somewhere.
Well then, shall we ‘keep it like this’
Or start with adventure?
…
Yes.
After all, it’s an adventure.
“Let’s move forward.”
“So.”
We passed through a transparent wall.
And what I saw was a village.
But. The architectural style is clearly different from what I saw earlier.
“Oh. This…”
My original world.
Infrastructure close to modern civilization is visible.
“Isn’t it familiar to strangers?”
“Huh? I’m not a stranger?”
He chewed my words, looked at me, and looked around.
It was only then that I realized that people were also different.
It’s not just their behavior, they’re just different races.
Gray skin, completely black skin, slightly pink skin.
They have horns and tails, so they are definitely demons.
“I see. This is the demon area?”
The Bridge of Peace is a project that collaborates not only with people but also with demons.
If you think normally, it is natural that they exist.
They may not be able to work together, but of course they will have a living space.
Maybe this place…
“Is it the other side?”
The other side of Area A where we were earlier.
It must be Area A of the demon residential area.
By the way. Except for skin color, they are mostly the same as humans.
“It must be comfortable.”
He grinned.
At least he’s thinking about how to effectively kill the villagers using the door he just passed through.
“Sigh. Can you fight right now?”
“What? Sure. Of course.”
A truly happy smile at the sudden confirmation of his intention to fight.
Three meals by the way, demons. Except for skin color, they are mostly the same as humans. You like fighting more than eating, my sissy.
I turned my back to the path I had taken and put my hand in.
And.
Like when the fog of the midnight sun cleared.
I lift the curtain of this world.
That moment.
Wow-!!
Suddenness. The tale of machines and the tale of could have appeared.
No. No.
One more this time.
A being appears whose entire body seems to be covered in fog.
I looked back at the grinning person with wide eyes and said.
“Now. Grin. Fight.”
