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

Chapter 182

Episode 182: On this Earth (2)

“I should have sung it for about three weeks. “Let’s go for a full month.”

Camburgh Little Mia muttered and recalled an incident from a few days ago.

This is a recollection of the driver who came to ask her about her schedule, even though he clearly said he would match her departure schedule.

“Mia what did you just say?”

“It’s nothing, Leon.”

When I first heard that question, I wondered if the delivery was wrong. However, she withdrew that assumption as the Demon Knight himself came to see her, and not anyone else.

This was because I judged that if the message had really gone wrong and someone had been sent to inquire, they would have used a messenger rather than a demon knight. Or the Archmage himself, who is the most active in external activities among the warriors, will come.

“Don’t do that. “You’re curious.”

“…I was so embarrassed that I called for a week.”

So he hinted, ‘Did you hear nothing?’ and gave a new answer through the demon knight’s frown.

I don’t know why, but the answer is that the warrior’s party did not share information only with the demon knight.

“Ah… if that’s the case.”

So, I thought, ‘I guess the messengers were mixed. I told the party it would take about a week.’ I ended the conversation with this…

“In the end, it wasn’t a mistake… but it’s still disappointing.”

Later, I called the Archmage and found out that it was true that the information was not shared only with the Demon Knight.

It was a bit funny that the reason was that he wanted to rest and that he would only listen to the opinion of someone of the lord of Soseong.

“me too.”

“really?”

“If I go this time, I won’t be able to see you for another few months. “The wedding will also be postponed due to the city being reorganized.”

She leaned against the person who approached her from behind, wrapping his arms around her waist. The held hand rose upward and the warmth of the board touched the back of the hand.

“I won’t be able to see you properly even after I get married, is that okay?”

“…I know. When I was young, I had to beg my mother and father to give me a younger sibling.”

“Why didn’t you sleep?”

“Your mother said she would give birth to you, but your father kept yelling that it was only because you couldn’t see your mother suffering. “Anyway, it’s inspirational.”

The warmth of her touch was so tickling that she giggled.

“Didn’t your father… say anything obscene or something?”

“Hey, how can you be mean about something like that? “What your father said is not wrong.”

“Not my brother. “I… gave up on you.”

But that smile didn’t last long. Mia lifted her head slightly. A friendly human face filled most of my field of vision.

“huh. “It’s not like that at all.”

“….”

“The night I told you that I think I will have to sacrifice myself to Biryuho… I heard you crying sadly in your room.”

“…I guess the reason you cry so much is because you resemble your father.”

“maybe.”

And as much as he is kind, he is also a strong person.

“If anything, if anything, wouldn’t the rebels you defeated and subdue be even more vicious?”

“Were you close enough to feel sorry for me? “These are the people who tried to kill you?”

“No… rather than close, um. I wanted to beat him up myself. If it wasn’t me and my father who killed the former lord of Seongju not long ago, these are the people who protested for several days to demand that the real culprit be brought forward immediately. “How obnoxious he was back then…”

“Ah…”

She pressed her forehead against Leon’s in an attempt to lighten the mood. Then Leon lightly rubbed his forehead and then smacked his lips until he made a sound.

“Mia, aren’t you the kind of person who hates your family?”

“Oh, it’s okay. “You’ve come too far to feel mean… you won’t even be a problem anymore.”

“…Did you lose your job?”

“It’s similar.”

She thought of her family, who had been paying attention to her ever since everyone woke up. They were the ones who had just realized that the moment she gave an order, their belly skin could split. How foolish.

“They can’t stop me anymore.”

In fact, it was all thanks to him that she was able to leave.

They will no longer feel in vain even if she is away. The whole city will be watching them.

“That’s a good thing.”

“yes?”

Still, I have to go back soon. But it should have been at least a month. She sighed softly in regret.

smart. It was at that moment that a knock was heard.

“Lord Xiaocheng!”

“…?”

“come in.”

“Yeah… Huh.”

With permission from Ednium Minor Leon, the aide opened the door and entered the room. Of course, the counselor who came in had to clear his throat at the sight of the two people clinging to each other.

“I know you are very sad that you are going to pass away later, but my side is so cold, Lord Soseong.”

“Then let’s date.”

“You have to give yourself time to say things like that…”

“Haha. okay. “I’ll give you a vacation once this incident is over.”

“Oh yea.”

“So what happened?”

“Oh, it’s not urgent… but something a bit ambiguous happened that made me delay the report.”

“What?”

In response to Leon’s question, the aide cleared his throat again and spoke in an awkward manner.

“The forest that burned down due to the subjugation of Lake Biryu… has been regenerated, albeit slightly.”

* * *

Ah, I feel like yawning.

“Why is the atmosphere like this?”

“Ah, are you here?”

“Aren’t you leaving?”

“I will do it. However, it looks like the route will change a little. “I’ll have to go back a lot, but I think I’ll stop by the forest where I caught Biryuho.”

I bit my tongue to suppress a yawn from lack of sleep.

Cancer: It is a yawn that ruins the face of even handsome and pretty people. But do you use that as a concept? Just tell me to go and die.

“why?”

“There was a report that something strange had happened there.”

“…Could it be the devil?”

“I don’t think so. “On the surface, it was a positive change.”

“If it’s a positive change…”

“They say the grass has grown.”

“Eh.”

“Still, you must not let down your guard! “There can be no change without reason!”

However, the heaviest thing in the world is the eyelids.

I became increasingly drowsy from the warm sunshine and gentle breeze. I don’t know if I’m going on a forced march, but I’m probably going to doze off because I’m so tired.

“Arch Mage, I think we’ll be leaving now…”

“Are you ready? Then do it. “Don’t worry about this one.”

“yes.”

Fortunately, the starting signal came before I fell asleep. It was horseback riding time.

Hehe.

My horseback riding skills have improved a lot over the past few months, but I’m not at a level where I can ride in my sleep.

So I focused on the tempo of the words. The slightly uncomfortable words soon gave off a relaxed look.

“I…”

Okay. Well then, it’s time to start fighting boredom.

I feel this every time, but whenever I travel between cities, it always feels like I’m taking a car down to the countryside. It’s much slower and less fun, though.

“That demon knight. “You’re okay…”

Still, I don’t hope for an incident to happen. The events here are annoying because they are connected to the main story no matter what you do.

Really. Even though what I want to do is a side quest that can be completed in a day or two, it’s not a main quest.

“Demon knight.”

Of course, the side quests mentioned at this time are things like ‘collect salad ingredients’ or ‘deliver salad’.

We absolutely do not want things like ‘suppression of bandits: annihilation’ or ‘clean cutting of violent criminals?’.

“What are you doing, San?”

“No, I… I’m not.”

In the meantime, the person who was trying to talk to me was finally driven away. It was worth noting that I was busy distracting myself and not even paying attention.

Just like last week, this time passed without incident.

“….”

I felt the horse that had approached me move away. And when I thought the distance was safe, I let out the breath I had been half-holding.

The sight of a head with red hair and a sullen bow seen from a distance made my heart throbbing for no reason.

“under.”

Still… this is correct. Yes, this is correct.

I looked up at the sky, exhaling softly so that no one could hear. The sky, unaware of others’ speed, was truly blue.

Shoot.

“Ah, it’s summer snow.”

“Everyone wear a bandana over your mouth and nose. “I am not responsible if summer snow gets into your nose.”

The seeds of wind plum trees are scattered all at once when the wind blows.

It seems that the fruits and seeds grew properly during my stay in Ednium. The fluffy seeds fluttered like snowflakes.

The term “summer snow” was not a waste at all.

Lightly.

I caught one of them. I had never seen anything like this in my hometown, so it felt quite unfamiliar.

It feels like I’m stuck in the winter of May. Even though it was neither May nor winter here.

Still, it was winter for me.

“Please write.”

At that time, Deathbringer suddenly said something. It was cloth.

“If it gets into your nose… they are in trouble. So…”

Was that happy or sad?

I slightly opened my lips and closed them again. Many, many, many. The horse, which understood my signal, increased its speed a little and moved forward.

Rustling.

In the meantime, I took out a handkerchief and covered my mouth and nose. He was a very useful guy. It was a good purchase.

“…I tried.”

“…What are you saying?”

“You’re not giving up already, are you?”

“What are you really saying? “Look ahead, Sannim.”

“joy. “I’m already seeing it well!”

“So I took a good look.”

“Eeeeeet etch!”

“Ugh.”

“Etchuu! you you! “If a ball of cotton flies, you don’t have to say anything, ehchu!!”

“That’s your job.”

…Once again, this handkerchief was a really good purchase. Thanks to this, I was able to cover my squirming lips.

“You really have changed.”

Anyway, I must have walked for a long time through the summer snow. The group, including myself, reached the intermediate destination. It was a place between Ednium and Camborough that had been burned down by demons.

“Moss…”

“Have the trees grown this much since that day?”

“It was exactly a week ago.”

“…Is that possible?”

“…one week? “I’ll be there in a week…”

“Well, I don’t know. There is no reason to discuss the possibility of something that has already happened. Rather, what is important is whether this is a problem or not. Archmage, if it’s okay with you, I’d like to hear your opinion, but I wonder if that’s possible…”

“Please wait a moment. “I think I should analyze it too.”

Oh, I guess I stayed up for no reason last night. I didn’t know I’d come here again.

I looked around with those thoughts in mind.

The ground, which was black just a few days ago, is now covered with soft moss and grass. The young trees growing in between are a bonus.

“Young hunter, why do you have that face?”

“What is this? “Do you have any clue?”

“No… I have some suspicions.”

“Then shouldn’t we tell the Archmage?”

“Just wait!”

It’s only up to my knees now, but in a few years it will become a rich forest.

Cooung.

[Wammaya. Didn’t you say you wouldn’t be able to meet? You haven’t gone yet.]

…Maybe within a few days.

[Then why don’t you talk some more about it…? Can you do that?]

I saw a snake peeking its head out from the other side of the forest. And I took a deep breath as I saw the tail gently swaying next to the head.

[Ah, but I still have to do what I have to do. Can I do it right away? But if I’m going to do this, I have to bite people.]

“…Wait.”

I was worried that my friendly tone and actions would make me laugh for no reason.

“Wizard.”

“…Did you just tell me?”

“Soseongju.”

“I’m listening.”

“Bite people.”

“…?”

“right now.”

Without taking my eyes off the snake, I gave them a request… a request that seemed somewhat coercive.

The two people exchanged glances and expressed their curiosity.

“…I guess so.”

“If that’s what the driver said. “I just wonder if I can hear the reason…”

However, even though they had doubts, neither of them refused to follow my words. I think it will be resolved if I show the snake later.

[Oh, the driver doesn’t have to go. As for the others, yes. That’s enough. Do you do it now?]

“This is enough for a demon knight—.”

“do it.”

“—?”

[Hee hee.]

The white snake laughed frivolously and moved its body. Kugugoogung. The wind seemed to be blowing, and soon the snake’s head broke through the ground.

“squall?!”

“Wow!”

At the same time, the recording began to spread like wildfire. Yes, it was exactly like a fire spreading.

Vines grow, the stems of small sprouts lengthen and bloom, and trees spread their branches and grow larger.

It seemed like a natural flame was raising its head straight towards the sky.

“…Growing up.”

“The forest…”

And I was able to watch it all from the center. It was amazing.

Shoot!

[Hiya! The forest near my house was already thick, so there was no need to exert any effort. This feels better than I thought. Is there another place to restore it?]

Normally, I would have said it wasn’t there… but now, I am. I wish I had one more too. See you again.

“…Good work.”

[Hehehe. You did a good job.]

I placed my hand on the head of Sangun who approached me. Instead of refusing, Sangun gently moved the touched area. I felt the cold and slippery texture that is unique to snakes.

[Oh really. Sir. Even before Ji arrived, I felt the energy of the sea. Was this something the driver did?]

Ah. Is that even detectable?

I was silent for a moment due to the unexpected comment. This is because it was right to bury the beads for a few days in case Sangun could not come and to check the effectiveness of the beads.

As a result, the meaning was lost with the coming of Sangun.

[What? You don’t have to say it if you don’t want to.]

Still, it wasn’t a completely worthless act. When a bead is removed from the body, the divine power dot dam increases, and to what extent is the bead’s plant growth ability ? or indeed, when growing a plant, it grows well without dying? You’re lying! It’s even better than that!—Because I found out that it is being raised.

[More than that, the font. Because the bastard here didn’t do his job and did something stupid. Is the whole eastern part of the country going to be like this? Then, he starts to feel a little bit upset and says to use some strength.]

Still, whatever is good is good. It’s also the same as telling me first what I couldn’t ask for.

“…do whatever you want.”

[Wow, really? I can really do whatever I want, right? Hehehehe. I guess he gave me permission, so I can roam around as much as I want.]

“….”

I gritted my teeth as I saw the mountain army swinging its tail like a propeller. I felt like I would burst out laughing even if I let my guard down just a little bit.

[Don’t look at it. This is a childish child. The moment I left the place, the priests started crying and crying, so I had to stay stuck in that small forest until then. If this wasn’t the driver’s request, I bet the kids wouldn’t let me go.]

I didn’t have a childish eye. I guess I got stabbed myself.

However, I don’t feel like making fun of him because he has a kind heart and the excuses he keeps making are funny and cute.

I lightly stroked Sangun’s chin—maybe close to his lower lip?—and then took my hand away.

“This is a demon knight…”

Oh, did the Archmage come at the right time?

I checked Soseongju who was standing next to him and then looked at Sangun. It was to ask them to show themselves as well.

“What about that snake…?”

But now that I think about it, it seems like their eyes were focused on Sangun, not me, from the beginning.

I don’t think I could have seen it until the forest was regenerated. I guess he just showed up?

“…It is a group of mountains in the great forest.”

“Sangun!”

It wasn’t a bad development. Less explaining to do.

“Why is Sangun…? No, not this. thank you “The minor lord of Camburgh is meeting a precious person.”

[Oh my. Do all the humans outside look pretty? Oh, maybe the driver’s partner?]

Separately, Yanma. Could you please stop making me into a mean person? Is that person dating someone else?

[Oh ji ohhapni. Oh my gosh. That’s too bad. It suits me.]

Indeed, me. We weren’t even close to each other, so why did we hook up as soon as we saw each other? Were you actually that evil, too?

“…I guess you called this too, right?”

Did I glare at the snake with salty eyes?

The Archmage, who seemed to have grasped the situation in the meantime, spoke in a sighing tone. It was a bonus to see So Seong-ju look at me with slightly red eyes after hearing those words.

[ha. As expected, it suits….]

“…Be thankful for the Great Forest. “They are the ones who gave permission.”

[It really suits you… Are you really not interested?]

San-gun, please.
