Chapter 199 – Episode 199. The Destroyer Is Coming
The plane landed on the Jeonggeom Guild playground.
The guild members who remained in the guild welcomed us, and everyone was laughing happily while sharing the joy of victory.
But,
I couldn’t help but laugh
The destroyer is coming.
To kill me.
Sua, who was sharing her joy with the guild members, came up to me and asked.
“Brother.”
“Huh? Ah..”
“Are you okay? You didn’t seem to be in a good mood from the plane earlier…”
“…”
I looked at the other people who were soaked in joy and said softly into Sua’s ear.
“I’ll tell you later. For now… Just enjoy today’s victory.”
“…”
Sua looked at me quietly, nodded her head, and went back to the guild members.
I looked at Sua who was sharing the joy with the guild members, then turned around and went into the plane.
My subordinates who followed me.
Among them, Juniel asked me with her questioning eyes.
“Master? Are you okay? Something doesn’t seem right from before…”
I let out a deep sigh and said.
“Sua will come later. Then she’ll tell you all at once. I still think I need to tidy up my hair a bit.”
“Okay, Master.”
“Thank you. Let them get some rest You worked hard today.”
At my words, the entire party scattered to all corners of the plane.
I went up to my bedroom on the second floor and lay down in my thoughts.
The destroyer is coming.
The Destroyer, a fighting weapon that surpasses the power of the authors called ‘Gods’, who are called noble people by the rat heads, is coming to kill me.
I had concerns, but when it comes to reality, I have no idea what to do.
Of course, I have absolutely no intention of sticking out my neck and dying in peace.
It is said that it is a force that is stronger than the gods, but it is not omnipotent.
If you were omnipotent, why would you come to kill me?
If I were to swipe my finger and say ‘Kang Min-goo, die’, I would die without doing anything.
That’s why I don’t think the power of a destroyer is the same as omnipotence.
Since it is a force that must be acted upon directly, I don’t think it will go beyond common sense, no matter how much its fighting ability exceeds ‘God’.
In other words, it is a story that somehow, if you roll your head well, you might be able to counter it.
Furthermore..
‘The destroyer said he was coming to kill me. Only ‘me’ who cheated on the game. It is said that even the gods cannot touch the game itself. I don’t know if this will be a clue to overcoming the crisis.’
I closed my eyes and thought deeply about what would happen when the destroyer came.
When time has passed and some thoughts have been sorted out,
Sieun, who came up to the second floor, told me.
“Brother. Sua is here.”
“Yea, I got it. I will go down.”
I got up and went down to the first floor.
Sua, my subordinates, Yuna, and Elena were all gathered and waiting for me.
Seeing that the expressions weren’t very good, it seemed like it was because of my condition.
I’ve caused you concern
My party and I are sitting at a table in the middle in front of the tent where Yuna and Elena are staying.
I had the rhyme of conversation in a calm voice.
“The destroyer is coming.”
It was a short remark, but the ripple effect was great.
Even Yuna and Elena, who had a short period of time to become my women, knew about the Destroyer.
The one who surprised me the most was Sua.
She looked at me with dismayed eyes and said.
“Oh, brother. I beg your pardon? Who, who is coming?”
“The destroyer is coming. It was discovered that I was messing around with this game. The rat head told me.”
“That, that…”
Sua, who was looking at me with astonished eyes, hurriedly said,
“Eh, run away brother.”
“Huh? Run away?”
Sua nodded her head hastily.
“Yes. Running away to a far place… Cradle. Cradle of Rest! If you’re in there, even the destroyer won’t be able to find you.”
I stroked Sua’s hair.
It was Sua who always thought calmly and made rational decisions. Seeing him so flustered and casually talking made me feel that he genuinely cared about me.
“Since he is a destroyer who is said to have combat abilities beyond that of a god, it will be impossible to escape. Cradle… I don’t know. It’s an absolute safe zone that’s never been seen by anyone else, but… It’s not completely flawless. The muscle man was able to see the truth, and considering that Liu Siu-ying’s location was also exposed… I don’t know if it will even work on the destroyer. Even if it works, the destroyer will wait in front of the cradle for me to come out. You can’t live until you die in the cradle, can you?”
“Yeah, but…”
“Hiding in the cradle will be considered a last resort.”
“Brother..”
Sua was shedding tears.
Others who saw Sua crying were also shedding tears, worrying about me.
Except for Juniel.
“What are you so worried about, Master! No matter how strong he is, if we all work together, he won’t be able to control his master! Don’t worry, I’ll be by your side to protect you!!”
Seeing Juniel speak with courage, I felt like I was feeling a little better, realizing that my worries were useless.
I said while patting Juniel’s head.
“Yes, you are right. No matter how strong you are, I don’t think you’re invincible. If you really are omnipotent like a god, you won’t even have to come all the way here to kill me. So… I intend to fight.”
At my words, Juniel nodded his head broadly.
The other members of the party also nodded their heads together with determined expressions.
“To do that… I really need Sua’s help.”
“It is natural. I will help.”
“And I need your cooperation as well.”
At my words, all of my subordinates except for Sua nodded.
“Of course. Master. Tell me anything.”
“Okay..”
I said while looking at Juniel, Sieun, Jiyoon, Jisoo, Isabella, and Airi.
“Please stay out of the cradle of rest while I fight the destroyer with Sua. Never.”
“…”
For a moment, silence fell over everyone.
It was Juniel who broke the silence.
“Master?! What did you say? Did you just tell us not to fight and stay in the cradle?”
“Exactly. That’s right.”
“Brother. He is said to be a destroyer with ridiculously strong power. But why don’t you fight with us…”
I calmed everyone down after Juniel and Sieun fired at me.
Not only Juniel and Sieun, but everyone was looking at me with eyes that said it was nonsense.
“Now. Wait. I’ll explain. There are reasons for everything.”
I told my colleagues about the plan I had in mind as I lay in bed.
After the long talk, the colleagues seemed to have calmed down a bit.
Shieun said.
“I understood. I certainly understand, but… To be in the cradle doing nothing at such an important moment…”
“I’m not saying you should just suck your fingers inside. If everything goes wrong, I’ll take refuge in the cradle. If that happens… We all risk death and struggle together. If that time comes, please take good care of me.”
Hmm.
It’s a joke, but no one laughs.
While I was embarrassed, Juniel told me.
“It’s an operation I don’t like. But… You can’t help but follow…”
I silently stroked Juniel’s head.
Since it was Juniel who was most likely to resist this operation, I was worried about how to persuade him, but I’m glad he accepted it well.
I’m really glad
If they had resisted to the end, they would have kept them from moving in the cradle with ‘orders’.
I told everyone, relieved that I hadn’t gone that far.
“Thank you for understanding. The question is when the destroyer will come. I don’t think it’s that far, maybe-“
“Came.”
“Yes, I came… Huh?”
I looked at Sua with surprised eyes.
Sua muttered softly while staring into the sky.
“I’m here, brother. Perhaps a destroyer… No, definitely a destroyer.”
My reaction was rather delayed at Sua’s words, which so naturally announced the arrival of the destroyer.
“Uh.. Um.. Wow, you said you came? Are you saying the destroyer is here?”
“Yes. Direction this way. Something with great power is moving slowly towards us. It is presumed that he is a being with power that cannot be compared to the demon king we met today… The destroyer must be right.”
If Su-a, who has the ‘detection’ skill, says she is right, then she is right.
You came here so quickly?
No.
But you came after explaining all the countermeasures to your colleagues.
You should consider yourself lucky.
Sua’s explanation continued.
“The movement speed is… Very slow. As if walking leisurely…”
Movement speed is also slow.
Good.
I immediately sent an order to Liu Xiuying to take off the plane.
If you fight on the playground here, you might have a victim.
We have to go as far as possible and fight.
The plane rose into the sky and flew towards the south.
Since most of the humans are concentrated in the metropolitan area, when I went down a little bit, I saw a deserted area without a single person.
After landing the plane, I got off the plane with Sua.
Before getting off, I said goodbye to Yuna and Elena.
I plan to send the two of them back to the sword guild on the plane.
Since the two cannot fit into the cradle, they must be moved safely.
With tears in their eyes, Yuna and Elena boarded the plane and left.
I said to Sua.
“Tell me as soon as you feel the energy of the destroyer.”
“Okay brother. I don’t feel it now. Since we came by plane, I think it will take some time to catch up.”
I sat down on the floor and let out a big sigh.
As I sat on the floor, Sua and her subordinates also sat around me.
Everyone is silent and has a worried face.
I said, trying to lighten the mood.
“Why are you so down? Don’t be so depressed You just have to defeat even the destroyer. If I defeat even the destroyer, even a god wouldn’t think of touching me again? If that happens, only the flower road will remain in our future. Got it?”
I tried to lighten the mood, but it didn’t work.
Eh, Arthur Arthur.
Since when did I play the role of the mood maker?
I fell down on Airi’s lap, who was kneeling behind me.
Airi seemed a bit taken aback by the sudden situation, but soon began stroking my hair lightly.
Suddenly
Juniel’s head appeared above my head as I lay down.
Looking down at me from above, Juniel said.
“Master.”
“… Huh?”
“Can’t I just die?”
“…”
“You really shouldn’t die, okay? I’m not saying this because when the master dies, we die too. I mean, even if I die, I don’t want my master to die. So… Never die. Got it?”
“…”
I lifted my hand and pulled Juniel’s hair toward me, kissing her lightly on the lips.
“I will not die. How can I die leaving these pretty, charming, and cute girls of mine. Still not enough I ate every day, but it was still not enough. I will definitely survive and eat dozens, hundreds, or thousands of times more than I did before. So… Don’t worry.”
Juniel sighed and laughed at my words, but she kissed me briefly again.
Looking at it, it seemed that other subordinates of mine wanted to do the same to me as Juniel, but it seemed that they were not hasty.
Hmm.
I’ll have to do it myself.
I tried to raise my body, but I couldn’t achieve what I wanted.
It was because he heard Sua’s nervous voice announcing the arrival of the destroyer.
Okay.
Let’s stick together
If Ji is strong, how strong will he be?
As I’ve been living like a stubborn person until now, I’ll survive again.
And I will walk the flower road with my beautiful women.
Never..
Won’t die
With determined eyes, I gazed in the direction where the destroyer was coming.
