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

Chapter 257

Episode 257 What if (5)

?All effects except magic detection and tracking nullification gradually increase in proportion to the skill use time.

?When canceling a skill, all effects except magic detection and tracking nullification are gradually canceled over a certain period of time.

The time it takes to release is proportional to the skill usage time.”

?Magic circulation disorder?The magic power in the body becomes tangled and cannot be properly controlled.

Magic recovery speed is slowed by 30% and Skill: Magic Control is invalidated.

When using magic power, there is a certain probability that magic backflow occurs and the user suffers damage.” This

skill suddenly appeared while Sangun went to create a place to farm food. Why does it seem like there is a sudden change in vitality when catching a sea dragon in the sea?

“sorry. “I’m still immature.”

I don’t know why they’re giving me this now.

Since I look like I’m having a hard time, do they at least give me some help by giving me a bottle or medicine? But since everything has already been caught, shouldn’t they come out and give it to them? Are you saying you offer convenience but have no intention of meeting?

…If I give you this, it will make it easier for me to chase after you guys?

“I won’t make mistakes anymore.”

It’s true that I found a way out thanks to your help, but I can’t even guess what his intentions are. By what standard do they really operate?

I pondered those thoughts and focused on my body. Anyway, I couldn’t pass out again while using a skill.

After careful adjustment, the demonic energy was transformed into magical power, and a rather severe pain rushed through my body. I felt like my body was becoming sluggish.

“How is it? Has the demonic energy been hidden?”

However, the effect compared to the pain was clear. The right hand, which was left open for visual inspection, began to return to its original color. It’s not black anymore.

“Am I successful?”

Of course, the debuffs you get in exchange for this disguise make your bones hurt. Aside from the reduction in health and mana pain, the amount of damage received increases like that.

Even the amount of divine damage received is such that you have to be prepared to die the moment you get hit. Not to mention the dot damage per second.

If you are attacked by surprise, you will die without any regrets.

“…?”

In addition, looking at it now, impaired circulation of magic power was a serious penalty.

The sensation of using magical power, which originally felt like spraying water with a fire truck hose, has now become as good as shooting it out with a straw with a twisted mouth. At the very least, I think I should give up the idea of fighting with ‘camouflage’ activated.

“…perhaps you can still feel the demonic energy—”

Well, my impressions of the camouflage skill are roughly like this.

More than that, why is there no answer to the Six Ghosts? I looked at the six ghosts worriedly, wondering if there was some problem.

[I will correct this. You are such a selfish bastard.]

Immediately, criticism came in that I could not understand the true meaning of.

“yes?”

[And me too… I really…]

It’s such a sudden blow that it doesn’t even hit me much. It’s even worse because in the middle of the day, the six ears suddenly cover their heads with their fins. I’m just baffled.

“…Why are you doing that?”

Unable to contain my confusion, I tried talking to Yuk Gui a few more times. Of course, no answer came back.

“Why…”

Why are you doing this all of a sudden? Is this because I fainted?

I reflected on Yuk-gwi’s suspicious actions by making all kinds of guesses. To a topic where I’m not even sure if that’s the answer or not.

[I’m here… Did you two fight?]

“…No.”

Maybe… they didn’t fight? maybe…?

I patted the back of my neck awkwardly as Sangun arrived just in time. I don’t even know the situation. Please do something. My eyes are giving help to Sangun.

[Ancestor?]

[Don’t talk to me. Because I feel ashamed of myself.]

[Yep.]

But Sangun’s attempt didn’t work either. Sangun’s gaze and mine met again. The various herbs in his mouth added a bit of laughter to the awkward air.

[Why are you doing that?]

“…I don’t know either.”

If I knew, I would have calmed down a long time ago. San-gun and I whispered as we looked at Yuk-gwi’s eyes.

[Oh. After all, the driver. The demon energy has completely disappeared.]

Then, Sangun noticed the change in me and his eyes widened. I thought Yuk-gwi had failed because he didn’t say anything, but it seems that wasn’t the case.

I fiddled with my right hand with a strange feeling.

[No… isn’t it gone? Did you succeed…?]

“Yes.”

If Sangun says this, it can be assumed that there is no chance of humans catching it.

I was secretly satisfied with Sangun’s answer. Even though there were a lot of penalties, I still looked for a way to get around the city. The biggest obstacle is cleared.

[Well….]

“…?”

But as I was saying that, Sangun lowered his head in a gloomy voice. Tuk. The deodeok and hemp that were in my mouth fell to the floor and scattered.

[Is it long gone now?]

I guess he was already imagining that I would leave. It’s not entirely wrong to say that they decided to stay only while they find a solution to demonic energy, but it’s a bit funny to see them drooping like that.

[Ji worked hard to grow the crops… she really worked hard…]

I kept a stern expression, barely holding back the laughter that was about to come out. Even though the concept was largely put aside, the characteristic blank expression had to be maintained.

“There will be some more left.”

[Hot, really.]

“Yeah.”

For your information, I am not saying this for nothing to appease the mountain army. I actually should have stayed here a few more days.

“And tell this to the warchief. “I have a favor to ask.”

That’s right, my concept isn’t just about hiding demons. I also need a detailed study on camouflage skills, right?

* * *

“You’re leaving?”

“okay.”

Deathbringer was extremely embarrassed by the words that poured out before he had time to prepare. That’s because I didn’t know that Berserk, not anyone else, would say something like this now and not at any other time.

“There is no reason to be here anymore.”

But was it really like that? Did he really not know this would happen?

Deathbringer saw the fighter sinking drastically after that incident. Now, like the demon knight she once was, she is only releasing the heavy air that feels like she is trapped in the deep sea.

“…Where are you going?”

“North.”

“Where in the north?”

“I will return to my hometown.”

“Ah….”

It is said that the Inquisitor received an oracle that told him to go north. So let’s go together.

To find and capture a demon knight—it doesn’t mean capturing him. If you want to talk even for a moment, you need to hold on—you need a strong person. So, can’t we just hang out together until then?

All those words were blocked by the word hometown. This is because people like you don’t know that most people attach great meaning to their hometown.

The Deathbringer’s ears, which were licking their lips, drooped down.

“Yeah, that might be better.”

The meaning varies depending on interpretation, but in Deathbringer’s opinion, it was correct to refer to the second half of the oracle as a demon knight. After all, isn’t a person who loses his memory and wanders around also a lost person?

Kill it, save it, or send it back. I’m not sure which of the three interpretations is correct.

“Aren’t you leaving?”

“well. At first, I thought so…”

But at least I knew this one thing. In the temple, there is a high probability that you will choose the first one.

“I thought it would be better to stay for my sake.”

But did he have the ability to stop it? If the Inquisitor chooses the first one, does he have the ability to save the Demon Knight from her?

“I think if I stay here, I have a higher chance of running into Nari.”

does not exist. Although I don’t have it, I am confident that I can convey the message faster than anyone else in the group. So Deathbringer decided to stay.

“…When are you going to leave?”

“today.”

“Right away?”

“okay.”

“…all right.”

But is this really the right choice?

He awkwardly raised his lips as he watched the fighter bid him farewell.

“Bye.”

Will we ever see each other again?

The word he couldn’t ask tightened his throat.

* * *

Approximately ten days from the day Yuk Gui showed an abnormal reaction. I invested all of that time into understanding my newly acquired ‘camouflage’ skill.

Investigation into the phrase that the effect (debuff) increases in proportion to the skill use time.

Consideration on how long debuffs remain when a skill is canceled.

Check the maximum maintenance time you can endure, taking into account the dot damage that gets stronger over time.

Status Abnormalities: Research on reduced combat power due to mana circulation disorders and recoil due to mana reflux, etc.

It was all preparatory work to make going outside more comfortable.

Rumbling.

“…ah.”

However, as a result, I gained one priority.

If you fight using magic with camouflage activated, you will be defeated.

“Nosebleeds are basic…”

Of course, if you have magical power reflux, you will only take damage, but the skill will not be canceled—there may be times when you quit the skill because you can’t handle the pain—but it is not impossible to fight at all.

However, if the fight goes on, it will be a lot of trouble. Unless this is urgent, it is better to avoid fighting from the beginning.

This much was certain.

“I understand why the owner insisted on playing solo in a deserted place…”

I flopped down on a nearby tree, unable to hide my pain. It’s no joke, my entire stomach really hurt. I feel like I have returned to the poor body of reality.

“I’m really dying…”

Meanwhile, the nosebleed caused by magical backflow still shows no sign of stopping. I lowered my head, covering my nose with a handkerchief.

Grumbling. The wind blowing from afar shook the hem of my clothes with a sound unique to the forest. It is a wind that cools the body.

“…But at this rate, I think the collection of cases is complete.”

I guess it’s because I covered my nose with a handkerchief. What I said without thinking sounded like I was talking blindly.

Aside from the fact that it is something that humans can’t help, it was a bit funny because it didn’t fit the concept so well.

If a Deathbringer or Inquisitor had heard this, they would have doubted their ears and put their mouths together into a diamond shape. I imagined that scene, and then my mouth fell open again.

Since no one is watching, you can laugh as much as you want. What surpassed that reality was the appearance of two young men lowering their heads at the place I left.

The corner of his mouth that had been rising fell straight to the floor.

purr.

“Hmm…”

…Okay. The concept is not over until you leave the forest. So, let’s get our faces together. With that determination, I put my hand into my inventory.

Rattling.

Lunch box, which sounds grand but has no other word to describe it, was suddenly brought out.

“Whoa.”

Luckily, the nosebleeds had stopped by then too. In other words, there was no need to stuff rice into your mouth while covering your nose with a handkerchief.

I comfortably opened the lunch box lid.

[Wow!!]

However, the moment the thin porridge was scooped up by the spoon, a loud roar echoed through the forest.

This was what Sangun did when he couldn’t bear to call me directly and needed to let me know that he was here. My heart, which had been startled, returned to its original position.

[Waaaaat.]

It’s fine that you want to call me home, but if you keep doing this, won’t the priests come to investigate?

I closed the lid of the lunch box, feeling a little anxious. I didn’t think I had come too far from where I was staying, and since the mountains were also there, I decided to go back and eat.

[Wow!]

Above all, if you don’t hit him quickly, Sangun will continue to do that. Better go back.

When I felt lonely, I raised my eyebrows at the uninvited guest who came to visit me without realizing it.

“noisy.”

[Ah, driver.]

Still, it’s noisy. I struck Sangun’s body with the entire sword sheath. Only then did Sangun notice my presence and turn his head. The head that approached stopped right above me, sniffing its nostrils and sticking out its tongue.

[Atta. Once the magic disappears, it becomes very difficult to find a driver. Separately, look at the smell of blood. Did you do that again? Well, just take care of yourself and go…]

“It’s none of my business. “Business.”

Yuk-gwi, who was said to have been worried since that day, did not come today again… Why did San-gun come again? Are you back to play again? But isn’t it too much to attend four days in a row?

[Oh my. I heard that what the Warchief requested arrived today, so I came to deliver it right away.]

That doesn’t seem to be the case. Part of Sangun’s body moved and extended the tip of its tail towards me. There was a bundle hanging there.

“…I didn’t know you could get it already.”

I took it cautiously. I thought it would take at least three weeks, taking into account the time to travel between the forest and the outside world and the time to go out and get things. But I never thought it would arrive earlier than that. I am both embarrassed and happy.

[But what is it? I don’t know the letters…]

“…You don’t know.”

But it’s a bit hard to say this with my own mouth. It’s not something that’s embarrassing or shameful, but the concept doesn’t seem worth mentioning.

[Yiyiing.]

You can’t be cute like that. If you are a mountain county, behave like a mountain county.

I put the bundle in my inventory, leaving Sangun, who was becoming more and more of a swarm. I’ll check the details after he goes.

[Disgracefully.]

“If you have no further business, go.”

[Do you think I won’t find out if you don’t tell me? It’s a long question to ask the warchief.]

Either that or not. I roughly pushed the pouting Sangun away. I just didn’t want to say it out loud, and it wasn’t my business to hear it from the warchief.

On the other hand, Sangun had a sullen expression on his face. He is outstanding at conveying emotions to a subject who has no facial muscles.

“ah.”

[hot. Can you tell me?]

“I will be leaving within this week. Just know.”

[Heeeeeeing.]

No, I’ve found out everything I need to know. I’ve prepared all the means to go outside and hide my identity. Now I really have to go.

I ended up having to use my strength to get rid of Sangun, who started whining in a different way.

[Hehehe.]

Hey, stay away!
