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

Episode 177 So far (5)

I felt like the atmosphere in the restaurant was a bit quiet today, but I had been on an empty stomach for too long to focus on that.

I was delighted with the many fish dishes and stuffed them into my stomach.

Perhaps considering that I had been down for over 10 days, the food was cooked to the point where it almost melted in my mouth, so I didn’t have to worry about indigestion. it’s good.

Rattling.

But it still seems impossible to eat a lot.

Even though I ate less than usual, I put down the spoon in my stomach. I was a little worried about the leftover food, but seeing Berserker eat it made me feel at ease again.

She was the kind of person who would eat anything I couldn’t eat.

Grumble.

I slightly pushed my chair back and thought.

There should be at least one friend like that in real life. That way, you can try as many different foods as possible when you go to a restaurant.

Why are there only news people around me?

It wasn’t a very important thought.

“Don’t you drink tea?”

I thought about answering, but I chose to remain silent, thinking that the answer I gave while listening to the explanation would be the end of today’s number of answers.

Instead, I thought about where I should go now. It was a really important topic.

Even if I go to my room, there is nothing to do.

It rattled.

So, while the restaurant was closed, I thought about it some more.

I passed on borrowing books from the temple to read because I was not in a good physical condition and I felt like I wanted to go to the temple in the first place.

I decided against going out and painting because I thought it would just make me feel weird. There was no point in going to the restaurant since I had just eaten, and there was no cafe.

“How can we restore the burned forest…”

“It is true that the dryness is over…”

Then, as I was passing through the hallway, the sound of a conversation flowed into my ears. It was a conversation between priests who were working in the herb field beyond the hallway wall.

But as I listened to their conversation, a few things came to mind that I would like to do.

Add in the fact that departure would likely be delayed by a few days, and it was perfect timing.

I recently decided to visit the Shin Sejin Information Guild.

“…It’s miserable.”

Meanwhile, the restaurant where the devil knight left.

Deathbringer spat out the words as if letting out the breath he had been holding. His hand is patting his uncomfortable stomach as if he were pretending.

“Does the food taste strange? “I like it.”

“I didn’t mean food… ugh. “Saen just lives like that.”

“…?!”

The Deathbringer laid down his spoon while the fierce Inquisitor analyzed whether his words were swear words or not.

Normally, I would have eaten until my stomach was full, but today was not a bad day.

The weight of the long sword in my arms was too heavy.

“Mmmmmmmmmmm?”

“…Please swallow and speak.”

“Are you going today too, young hunter?”

“yes. “I’m leaving today too.”

There are many things I want to say and give to the demon knight, but it seems absolutely impossible in the current situation.

So what can you do? I have to do something else.

Because if not this time, the opportunity will not come again.

“Take care of yourself.”

“yes.”

Even though I have been going out consistently for the past few days, do you see me off every time? He felt a slight tingle at that point and left his group behind.

His body, no longer under surveillance, left the temple. If you go a little further, you will reach Ednium Castle itself.

“It’s really hard to find this place….”

It’s probably disguised as a bar or general store anyway, so if it’s on a big road, it’s nowhere near there.

I opened the door with a bit of dissatisfaction.

The bell on the door rang.

“Come on… Oh, is that you? “You’re here again?”

Is it because I just started operating, or is it because I can’t cook because it’s not my main job?

I ignored the store owner’s pretense of knowledge and sat down at an empty bar table. Of course, there are no people at other tables.

“Here, have a drink!”

Again.

Meanwhile, the store owner served alcohol that was not even ordered. The unusual scent and color did not seem to be ordinary alcohol.

I looked at the store owner to see what this meant. The eyes of the store owner, who had short gray hair tied back, were round.

“I have leftover money from last time. service.”

Oh, that’s what it meant.

In other words, it is like opening an information route in a closed forest.

It would be profitable if only the information censored by the warchief and his counselors was conveyed. If exchanges continue, someday there will be people from the Great Forest who are included in the information guild.

I don’t think the Warchief will just ignore that, but that’s their situation.

Just in case, I wrote a request in this letter.

“Clean it up.”

“You don’t like it? “It’s a drink we’re confident in.”

I put my left hand on the bar table, thinking it was a good idea to write down some advice in my old age.

Before my palm touched the table surface, something appeared.

widely.

A letter wrapped in well-dried calfskin was placed on the table.

“Oh….”

“It’s a delivery.”

“Same place this time?”

“There is no need to reply.”

There is a high probability that I will leave before a reply comes. I withdrew my hand, making sure of that. The next person to touch, as if touching a baton, was the store owner.

“What is the deadline?”

“does not exist.”

“Uhm, if that’s the case. “I’ll do this as a service.”

Then I am the one to thank you.

“It is a separate request.”

“huh?”

“I will buy all the information about ‘me’ that you have obtained.”

However, it would be impossible to receive this as a service.

For the first time, I said out loud what I had always hesitated and given up on. There is no turning back now. That’s what I thought.

It was a similar feeling to when I started interviewing Lord Bergart.

“…Wait a minute. “There is no problem with selling it, but why do you give my information?”

“Isn’t information a commodity here?”

“…Oh, that’s right, but.”

There is no reason to answer me unless the purpose is to exchange information. Instead of service, I took out the payment I had prepared in advance.

“It’s an advance payment.”

“huh?”

A couple of fingernails the size of a child’s fist landed on the table.

The platinum-colored claws emit a completely different shine from those of ordinary beasts, as if to prove that they are by no means ordinary.

“What is this?”

“It’s Biryuho’s claw.”

“what!?”

Why are you so surprised? You probably know that I have the body of Biryuho. Or are you so incompetent that you don’t even know that?

“No, I knew I had it, but I couldn’t believe it…”

Fortunately, I guess that’s not the case.

I slowly got ready to get up from my seat. Then the store owner caught me.

“Wait!”

widely!

good. I pulled my hand out before it was caught. nice.

“I’m not finished talking yet.”

“Is it impossible?”

“That’s not it…! Oh, indeed.”

The store owner scratched his head and walked toward the door of the store with long strides. Then he lowered the lock and closed the door completely. Crash, clank, clank. The same goes for the four windows.

The store returned to its pre-opening state.

“Let’s make the conditions clear. “Is this all you need to know about your guild?”

“If there is an informed guess or opinion, I will buy that too.”

“good. I’m literally buying everything that’s said about you. “It will take some time to gather information like this…”

The store owner glanced at his fingernails as he said that.

“Do you have one more fingernail?”

How could it not be there? I brought all 15 of them.

I dropped another nail. The store owner’s expression became mysterious.

“Maybe I should have called two.”

They say it right to the customer’s face that they are going to rip them off. Well, they are taking advantage of the fact that I am a person who speaks like that.

I thought about Camburgh’s information guild and just clicked my tongue. If Ednium’s Information Guild had been like that, I would have postponed the request for investigation until later.

Clink.

Anyway, I dropped another nail. The store owner opened his eyes wide.

“I didn’t want to talk more, did I? “This is enough for the down payment and the information fee.”

“Make your tongue heavy. Even where you are.”

“…Oh yeah. “I just need to know that you bought this information, right?”

“You’ll have to make sure that the fact that you even know doesn’t spread.”

“Then the price is a bit low. “How hard is it to hide it, even at work?”

okay? Then get more.

“No, driver, don’t you even know jokes?”

“Make your tongue as heavy as the amount you received.”

I added another claw. Then the store owner adjusted his glasses and sighed.

“All it takes is one claw to buy silence. Instead, please answer just one minor question.”

One of the claws returned to my hand. Cheeik. I quickly put it in my inventory before putting it in my palm. This must not be discovered.

“Is there a special reason why you buy your own information?”

Aside from that, this development wasn’t very good from my perspective. It is natural to feel that money is less valuable than my personal information.

But whatever. Looking at the other person’s expression, it doesn’t look like they will let him use his claws.

“This statement will also have to remain unwritten.”

“Oh well then. “I’m the only one who knows this.”

I tried to gauge whether I could believe that, but then stopped.

This is because although they are in a position to urge people to keep secrets, they do not actually believe it even though they are urging them to do so.

How can you believe that I have seen so much of him? I just trust the banker with the feeling of trusting that he won’t give away my account number.

“My memory is not clear at some point.”

And honestly… it doesn’t really hurt me if this fact spreads. Isn’t this a problem that is directly related to my combat power and is too delicate a topic to be considered a weakness?

They say I don’t remember anything, so what can I do? Rather, if this spreads, I think even if I make a configuration error, people will just ignore it and say it’s a memory problem.

In the end, it’s just a matter of whether it’s good if secrecy can be maintained or not. I said reassuringly.

“memory…? why?”

“The answer is the end.”

However, we must remain silent about why our memories disappeared. If sparks fly that say it might be the devil’s fault, then I’ll be in trouble too.

“Well, okay. “At least to this extent, my curiosity has been resolved.”

“Information is.”

“You don’t want even the guild to know that you bought the information? In that case, the method of conveying information becomes complicated. The same goes for retrieving information spread across each branch. So it takes some time. A month and a half…? “I’d say two months is a good estimate.”

Two months? It seemed longer than I thought, but it wasn’t that long.

It generally takes about four days to a week to move from city to city, and if even one incident occurs, you will be stranded for two to three weeks. If I stretch it after a fight, it usually lasts for about two weeks.

If you do it, it’s almost like… I’ll get it after about two cities. I’ll get it right in the middle of the eastern part.

“Wow, it’s really annoying to see it like this. “Give me your claws again.”

Rattling.

“You’re giving it to me again.”

I gave my claws without hesitation. It wasn’t a waste of money since it was easy to make money if you were determined and worked as an adventurer.

“The problem is how to deliver it… Do you know which city it will be in two months? If you don’t know, you have no choice but to report to the Information Guild what kind of information you bought. “That way we can find out your location and have a way to convey it.”

Aside from that, this part is really uncomfortable. I once again missed the Internet and remembered the schedule that was decided at that time.

Suddenly I remembered that this destination was quite far away.

So it definitely took over a month to get there, right? If that city had the largest magic tower in the East… wouldn’t an incident break out there?

If so, wouldn’t it be there for exactly two months?

“It will be in Bemurgen.”

“I like Bemurchen. Then, send a letter to the Adventurer’s Guild there. “I will definitely send it to you before two months are up, so you can take it yourself.”

“Confirmed.”

I don’t know. If that doesn’t work, I’ll stick my ass there.

I left the store with such helpless thoughts.

Two months. The newly given reprieve made my heart feel both relieved and heavy.

“I never know when this hole will close.”

Deathbringer shook himself off, wondering whether he should tell this and leave it alone or keep it as his secret. The dust that had accumulated as it passed through the hole fell into the air.

“Well, I can come see you comfortably thanks to nothing being blocked.”

Then he took off the lid of the leather water bottle he had brought with him. Instead of water, I filled it with strong alcohol.

“Right Emmett?”

He chuckled and took a sip of his drink. Although I had never had a chance to drink it during the trip, the alcohol I had often drank until then was enticing to my taste buds.

“I always tell you, this is alcohol, so you can’t do it. “Eat this instead.”

But does it really matter if you come to a person’s grave and drink alone?

Deathbringer took out a couple of candies he had saved and placed them on the grave. It’s a bonus to wish you could taste the candy you couldn’t eat while alive, even when you’re dead.

“….”

But after I got that far, I ran out of things to say. It was so great that he kept coming to visit me over the past few days and told me all kinds of stories.

The process from escaping here to meeting Skyla. The events I did and experienced after that. And the hero party we met at the end of the end. their faces.

I really had nothing to say now.

“Emmett.”

No really?

“Are you really okay?”

He sat comfortably in front of the grave and took off his hood.

“No, it can’t be okay.”

The green hair, which was kept hidden for various reasons, but the most fundamental one was probably something that happened on this earth, entered the realm of sunlight.

Gold flowed smoothly over dark green hair.

“Because that’s what death is.”

The brilliance was so dark that it even appeared on the eyelashes and pupils.

Deathbringer narrowed his eyes at the unfamiliar sensation.

“…You know, Emmett. When I die, I probably won’t be able to go to God’s arms. Some people will say that my revenge was justified, but in the end, I ended up hurting a lot of innocent people. “I… won’t change the fact that people died because of me.”

But you will get used to it someday.

“But… I decided not to regret it anymore. huh. Even if I die, I won’t be able to be by your side, but I won’t regret it. “I may have chosen the wrong way, but I decided to believe that it was just that I could not remain silent in response to injustice.”

As if melting into the shadows at some point became as easy as breathing.

“So Emmett, please don’t say anything because I can’t come see you. Because this was just the way I lived. It was I who could not remain silent and did not have the brains to choose a better way…”

The moment when what is on the sunny side will no longer be unfamiliar to him will also surely come.

“If that happens, you will survive. Understand? How can you live like that? If you’re going to do that, get up from the grave shouting to give up your life. “I will welcome you with a smile.”

So there is only one thing for him to do now.

“Instead, I will live like this until that moment. “This is how we will survive.”

live We live with the weight of life on our shoulders.

Since I knew this was wrong, I will fix it in the future. However, we never forget the weight of the sins we have already committed.

I will still live my life getting angry on behalf of those who cannot be angry.

“ah!”

Deathbringer stood up in front of the graveyard.

When I look up at the sky to see if it will rain, the sunlight is still strong. The sunlight was so strong that tears came out.

“This is why I promised myself to come in the evening, but I forgot again today. “Am I being annoying?”

He put the hood back on, blaming his memory for no reason. Regardless of my sincerity, the sunlight was so strong that I needed a hood to see.

“…huh?”

But what on earth is that human figure walking on that plain? There aren’t many people going there because it’s not a regular road but a road that connects to the forest.

Without realizing it, he focused his eyes and examined the other person one by one. It was hard to see because it was far away, but I could make out some features.

So, like black and gray hair colors or a sword running diagonally across the back.

“…Anyone can see that I’m me?!”

No, why did that person come out of the city? And that too without a single companion!

“Contact contact… there is no way something like this is possible!”

He wondered if it was a trap or not. After lamenting once again that I was not a wizard, I finally made a choice.

Let’s follow.

There’s no chance it’s a trap, but if that’s a real demon knight… wouldn’t that be a really big accident?

The relationship was still very awkward, but I couldn’t send someone who had been bedridden for more than ten days alone.

The Deathbringer’s legs hid in the wild grass of the plain and chased the demon knight.
