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

Chapter 365

Episode 365 Even if you can’t see with your right eye (6)

Land, land!

“good.”

The meister held the just-completed work at his fingertips and turned it around.

“Isn’t that bad?…”

A battery reproduced exactly like the one from Bemurchen and a weapon using the battery…

It was a prototype, so it had many flaws and was crude, but it was pretty good for something made hastily. If we improve here, it will become really usable then.

“What is that?”

“What is that?”

But as he was appreciating his work, the beggars next to him became interested. Well, it was something that could not be helped. No matter how stupid they are, they at least have eyes.

“It’s a Taser gun.”

“Taser gun?”

If I were to explain it in more detail, it would be a general term for one of the weapons used in the adventurer’s hometown, but…

well. There is no need to say that much. In any case, what is important to these guys is not the background and history of their birth, but the purpose and usage of the object.

“It’s so ugly.”

“shut up.”

“Well… what is it used for?”

I admit that the inclusion of the battery made the body very plain and clunky. The fact that it has become so large that it can barely be supported by holding it with both hands is also something that needs to be improved in the future.

“this? “This is how I write it.”

But what matters is performance.

Instead of giving detailed explanations to other people’s questions, Meister pointed the Taser gun at an unoccupied wall. bang! The moment the trigger was pulled, two iron needles were fired from the muzzle.

“Tsk.”

The fired iron needle flew straight ahead and stuck in the wall. Jijijijik! It was immediately after that that the energy inside the battery was transferred from the thread connected to the iron needle.

A current so strong that it was visible burned the surface of the hut wall.

“Oh, the vibration is stronger than I thought…”

“Electricity from the rice wall.”

“Is it magic?!”

Even though I have engraved layers of auxiliary magic to lessen the shock, my wrist still rings. The meister stretched out his heavy wrist and placed the weapon on the desk. It was heavy so I couldn’t hold it for a long time.

“It’s an item that fires precise magic.”

Although there are more improvements than advantages, the power was definitely worth using. It’s also quite efficient that the battery is charged just by shaking the gun barrel, so all you have to do is replace the metal needle.

“Things like fire rate, battery efficiency, and weight recoil will all have to be resolved gradually.”

This is perfect for use in emergency situations. The meister cleaned up the mess of tools, saying it was a good idea to leave them behind.

“That wizard.”

But the hem of his thick clothes fluttered in front of him.

“Perhaps… would it be too much to ask if I asked to borrow it?”

It was the collar of the girl Berserk brought with him.

Meister’s glasses reflected the light white.

“Why am I asking this knowingly?”

The meister slung over his shoulder one of the tools he had just been organizing. The girl’s shoulders shrank as she felt threatened.

“…that.”

“If it’s a reason you can’t even explain to others, don’t do it. “Because I feel bad.”

What a funny kid. I don’t know if I should say that I have the eyes to see or that I am incredibly shameless.

The Meister mumbled and put the long knife in his pocket. “…I want to go.” The girl’s white-covered lips trembled slightly.

“…?”

“I want to follow Daejeonsa, but right now I have no way. So…”

The girl’s fingers tightened on the hem of her dress, perhaps realizing that she was asking too much. My fingertips are cracked and swollen, and it looks like drops of blood will burst out at any moment.

“I think she told you to go back to the tribe?”

“There’s no point in going back!”

However, no blood actually flows from the scar. Of course. Because it is just a scar from the past that has already healed.

“Even if I go back… it’s meaningless.”

“why?”

“Because it’s useless to me.”

Even so, traces remain. So that you will never be forgotten, so that even if you forget, you will remember it again the moment you discover the remnants.

“If I go back, all I can do is worry about the future because I don’t know when I will be abandoned. “I

heard that the food shortage is serious, but I guess it’s severe enough to cause children to be abandoned?”

“…My life was only put on hold because someone was needed to assist the injured hunter. “Now that the hunter is healed, it wouldn’t be surprising if he was kicked out at any time.”

Therefore, those with scars have no choice but to twist. Since we have recorded the moments we want to forget in our bodies, we have to face them forever and live with them, so all we are left with is a distorted future.

“So… I would rather follow the Great Warrior.”

“Even if you went, there wouldn’t be anything you could do. “It would be impossible to follow in the first place.”

“does not matter.”

“And what if I die?”

“Even if you return to the tribe, dying is the same.”

“There is a world of difference between yes and yes.”

“Unfortunately, it doesn’t make any difference to me.”

But what comes after that discrepancy?

“I don’t understand. Are you close with that person? Is that person worth risking his life for? If you follow him, will your life change a lot?”

“no. It probably won’t change. “My situation won’t change just because he’s there.”

Intense desire to survive? Foolish blindness? Either that or a fierce obsession? A sad lack?

“It’s just something I want to keep up with.”

?Would you like to come with me??

Or an incomprehensible attraction?

Meister crossed his arms as he listened to the girl’s remarks.

Berserk’s obsession with family stimulated the lack of a girl who did not receive the affection she deserved from her parents. The girl’s subconscious yearned for that deep affection without her knowledge.

Since I didn’t know the circumstances of the two people, I didn’t notice the truth behind it, but there was one thing that struck me.

“…If you don’t want to borrow it, it’s okay. “I didn’t really ask you to give me such a valuable item.”

Certain choices that come at any given moment make people stupid regardless of their level of intelligence. This is especially true if it shows a plausible connection to scars.

“I’m sorry for asking you something presumptuous.”

Just as he is focusing on the inefficient task of battery development and the girl is risking her life to chase after someone.

“…There are three usable cartridges.”

“…?”

“Once you fire, you have to reload. And you only have three chances to reload. Did you understand? “If you use up all three cartridges, they just become trash.”

Oh shit. It’s all because of those idiots. The idiot disease spread because of those guys.

Even though Meister was grumbling, he did not retrieve the Taser gun he had pushed towards the girl. The girl’s eyes widened as she saw the Taser gun being pushed towards her, even though it was just inside the desk.

“For your information, don’t blame me if it breaks down or is different from what you thought. “I took it because you wanted it.”

“Are you really lending me…”

“What are you talking about? “There’s no point in having a prototype, so I’m just trying to dispose of it through you, right?”

“….”

No. If the girl comes back alive, you can expect a review. If the girl doesn’t come back, you can just assume that she was disposed of cleanly, but why is this such a stupid thing to do? It’s completely efficient and beneficial to me.

Meister rationalized himself like that and sat down on a nearby chair. The eyes of the three idiots who looked at the girl seemed to have become impure for some reason, but they didn’t say anything. It was enough to take care of them even if it wasn’t right now.

“So how are you going to get there?”

“yes?”

“I’m not confident I can catch up, so I guess I just blindly followed along.”

I thought the reason I wanted a Taser gun was because I judged that I could follow if I had a way to supplement my force. Maybe that wasn’t it?

“That’s not it.”

“Okay, so what is the method?

Just as the Meister was contemplating whether to retract his offer to hand it over or not, the girl urgently shook her head. I knew it. The meister’s expression became a little sour.

“That’s it…”

Well, after learning all the methods from the girl, I ended up thinking, ‘That was a brainless kid.’

“I do not know. “You take care of it.”

“Thank you persimmon! “If only we could meet again… then I would truly repay your kindness!”

“Like that.”

Still, he never returned the Taser. That was enough for the girl.

A small pebble was thrown into the night sky.

* * *

[I think I can help?]

‘Get out.’

I refused without much thought. To be honest, it didn’t even feel like it went through my brain. The words came out first as a spinal reflex, and I understood the words of anger later.

‘I won’t accept your help.’

Of course, understanding half a beat late did not change the type of answer. [Hehe.] Angry laughter rang out from inside the goal.

[Don’t be too harsh on me, girl. It’s not like I want to get involved. I’m just going to die if I’m not careful, so I’m just reaching out despite the doubt.]

That’s right. I listened to what he said and focused on my surroundings. Erutalc is extremely dangerous and Daniel is sweating profusely even in this cold, but the Inquisitor is at his limit despite his tenacious efforts to stop them. Everywhere I looked there was crisis.

[You really don’t need help?]

“You’re so noisy, Gretchen

told you to shut up!” [I didn’t tell you, kid.]

To be honest, I don’t want to stop Faust. There’s no way anything good will come of talking to the devil. If that guy truly took this situation as a threat, there’s no way his voice would be so calm.

‘Tell me first how you will help me and what you want in return.’

“That Gretchen…!”

But what was urgent was this.

I accepted the interview with the feeling of talking to a health product salesperson (a fraudster). I hope that at the end of this conversation, there will be value in the heartbreaking conversation we had. I really meant it.

[You sound like I’m going to demand conditions.]

‘Don’t want to talk.’

It’s already difficult to buy and split, so why is it a modification? I struck off his weak pretense in one go and then used my magic power. Nothing is disheveled, right? They say it doesn’t exist, so it has to be there.

[The way I help you is… Well, to put it simply, I will move your body for you while you complete the magic. The biggest reason why you are in trouble right now is because you are too busy controlling your magic power to move your body, right?]

‘…Let’s reduce it and divide the labor?’

[Exactly.]

Meanwhile, Anger continued to speak. I decided to listen first, but I felt like my head was going to explode trying to distract myself. It was even more so because I had to reassess whether it was beneficial or not.

“Concentrate!”

However, if your thoughts are focused on one side, the line of magical power is likely to be disturbed. I somehow asked back with the mindset of drawing a circle with my left hand and a star with my right.

‘I don’t think it will get much better if you move your body instead.’

[Is that really the case? I guarantee you it will be a lot better than it is now, right? The performance of this body is twice as superior to that of the humans running around you, and I am confident that I can use it to its limit.]

?…Under those conditions, just leave it to me! I can do it too!?

[I might lose a few years of my life in return, right?]

…Even considering the hidden sinister nature, is this really a profitable offer for me?

If the benefits outweigh the risks, would it be more reasonable to waste a few years of the boy’s life in order to avoid possible risks?

There is no time to think, and with an urgent mind, it is impossible to guess what the right answer is. To have a headache.

‘…tell me the conditions as well.’

I put off thinking about the conclusion for a while. Grumbling. My nose started bleeding more.

[I don’t want anything big either. All I want is for you to give me a little bit of discretion, just in case something happens that shakes the safety of my body like it does now. So that I can change the situation a little, whether it’s by allowing me to move my magic or giving me control of my body for a while.]

‘Ah, I heard that for no reason. go away.’

[Don’t be like that. It’s not a condition that’s detrimental to you either, is it? Since you keep walking on a limb, I wouldn’t have done it if it weren’t for this condition.]

What are you saying? Anyway, this is why you shouldn’t even have a conversation with a scammer.

I raised one hand, watching the blood vessels in my eyeballs pop in real time. Sparks jump out at the tips of my fingers as I raise them in a direction that does not disturb Daniel.

[If you are concerned about the safety of people around you, you can specify it as a condition. It only intervenes in the safety of this body, and the transaction can be canceled the moment you touch it with the intention of killing someone around you. Although we cannot 100% guarantee the survival of those around us, we do our best to prevent their death. Well, that’s what I mean.]

Grumble!

One burned down and a path was opened. “Ugh!” It was a path that only allowed one step.

Shake shake!

“These lowly bastards who don’t even have an ego…!”

Not only that, but the person who was supposed to tell me the way to the magic circle is just running around like crazy right now. It’s fortunate that you don’t get hit by the dust, but it’s despairing that there’s nothing you can do but kill the dust and kill time. There is no exit.

[You still hate it even though you did this?]

“Wow!”

“Representative!”

There was no exit.

“…This is why we need to maintain a balance between water and damage.”

“…?!”

Archmage, why did you fall for this timing? Of course, looking at the way things are going, I don’t think the situation would have changed much even if Archmage was there, but still.

‘If the limits of discretion that you and I each think differ greatly, the size of that authority will be re-determined later through dialogue and compromise. Walk up to that condition. And please protect the lives of other children. If you quietly ignore it, you will immediately withdraw.’

[Oh dear. It’s really thorough. Okay, I think you’ll get angry if I take any more time, so I’ll give in this time. So, you… I hope you understand my sincerity with the kindness you show to everyone.]

‘What do you say?’

[You can look forward to later, right?]

‘What are you really saying?’

I always say this, but you are a bastard with a good conscience.

I finally closed my eyes while hearing the sound of laughter. The world turned upside down.
