#356. Would you like to

* * *

Sometimes a horse without feet travels a thousand miles.

So was Africa.

“Are you going to start a war of conquest again in Egypt?”

“I heard that the Utopia guild and other military governments in Africa formed a continental alliance against it?”

“Even the representative of the Continental Alliance is an Eastern outlaw? What bullshit is this?”

when the rumor first spread.

Few seriously believed.

It is absurd to restart a war that has stopped once so suddenly.

Against it, an unprecedented Continental Alliance was formed, and even the leader of the alliance was a white eastern outlaw.

It was such an absurd story.

However, after only a few days, people realized that it was not a rumor.

The sudden departure of the Egyptian Legion, who had returned from the war of conquest.

In addition, the sight of the troops of each military government gathering from all over Africa informed them of the reality.

The fact that a great war for supremacy in Africa would soon begin.

“My God…”

“Is it really going to start an all-out war? Continental alliance with Egypt?”

after finding out about it.

People struggled to get information, albeit belatedly.

Depending on the outcome of this war, their country could be destroyed or enslaved, so they had no choice but to run around as if their feet were on fire.

The irony is that their efforts instead created all sorts of nonsense.

‘The defeated country in this war will be devastated!’

‘The first target is, of course, the Utopia Guild!’

‘The reason why the summoned lord went missing was to form an alliance with another lord and call in reinforcements!’

In the meantime, did you want to make money?

Rumors spread through the gossips of each country drove Africa, which was already complicated, into deeper confusion.

This happened because a proper media company was rare in Africa as it was ruled by the military government.

Some of them could only be called gossip.

“Come to think of it, there are rumors that this war was actually caused by a single man.”

“What nonsense is that?”

“Why do you know, the guy that the African tyrant brought in as his concubine this time?”

“Are you talking about a genius soldier with a borderline color or something? An Egyptian nobleman?”

“Isn’t she originally the concubine of an outlaw from the East? So I heard that an outlaw who lost his concubine went to war with his eyes closed…”

“What nonsense. Is war a joke? To wage a war like this just because of a quarrel?”

“…well, this must be a real rumor, right?”

“of course!”

Even the most deaf people laughed at the word that this war was a love affair.

Aside from being an eccentric outlaw in the east, a tyrant who only knows about war is bewitched by a man and commits such a thing.

At this point, it was rather a gag.

Although some gossip magazines sold magazines, claiming that she was a beauty ruining the country (?) despite knowing that.

but they didn’t know

That the magazines they sold would end up going to some hideaway on the outskirts.

up

Clear burn marks on the face.

Even one arm that was cut off there.

A man who only looks like a war victim or a veteran from the outside.

However, unlike his messy body, he had blue eyes and was silently looking down at the newspapers and magazines spread out on the table.

hard.

Editorial about this war.

Suspicion that the summoning lord is dead.

Miscellaneous rumors that the cause of the war is a love affair.

Other than that, it was hard to see it as a proper article even with empty words.

In fact, at first, the man was also flipping through magazines as if he were watching a gag program.

Cadde deuk.

Even so, this moment.

There is one reason why the man only rolls iron balls for rehabilitation exercises with cold eyes that have no sign of laughter.

Because I saw something very unpleasant in a magazine.

“They say they’re going to wage a war with the hegemony of the continent without me… That’s right. It takes only a moment for a person to become obsolete.”

The man let out a laugh.

Namim’s judgment is not incomprehensible.

Right now, Utopia’s guild power alone won’t be able to stand against Egypt, so joining the Continental Alliance at will is more of a necessity than the best.

If I had to place the blame on myself, I cut off contact with the guild and hid myself.

Of course, if the man did that, he would have thrown him alive as food for the summoned beast. He was a generous man to beauties.

Likewise, it is understandable that the eastern outlaw took the position of head of the Continental Alliance, which should have belonged to him.

“Well, you can say that you can do that….”

All the beauties in the world are yours anyway.

Whether it is a utopia led by Namim.

Whether it’s the Continental Alliance created by Rose.

Because in the end, it will come into your hands along with them. I wasn’t particularly nervous about that fact.

but only one.

There were things he couldn’t tolerate.

“Why is this X’s kid keeping over the line?” He

glanced

at a magazine… or rather, at the pictures in it.

It looks like it was taken while walking around town.

A woman in a military uniform and a blonde-tanned boy are seen in the blurry photo.

Contrary to the contents of the magazine, which explained that they were on a date, the boy’s face was calm and Hasneti’s expression was cold.

But it was a fact that the man who had lived his life considering winning her as a top priority could know.

I don’t know if it’s the boy’s side.

That the woman is genuinely happy.

The passionate affection in her eyes for Limor, which was never found in the usual way.

“I don’t know what trick you’ve been playing. Did you use a charm-type skill?”

Of course, he knew at least that fascination didn’t work for her.

whatever gift you give.

Whether you propose with sincerity.

Of course, it was burned without hesitation.

It was just hard to believe that she, who always glared at herself as if she were an insect, had fallen for a kid like this.

“…I feel really dirty.”

I’m going to go to the middle of the day!

The man crushed the iron ball that was rolling in his hand.

The fact that she might have already intermingled with this kid.

No, even if it wasn’t, the fact that he dared to have another man in his heart made him boil.

Maybe it was more because of the premonition that this war might have really been fought because of the love affair.

Patter.

So it was.

The reason why he fell silent after dropping the remains of the iron ball he was holding in his hand.

as if thinking about something

At the end of looking at the floor.

He sighed quietly.

“I can’t help it.”

The man raised his head.

And looking up at the sky outside the window, to be exact, at the stars floating there, he quietly opened his mouth.

“’The gatekeeper who opens the world’.”

[The Constellation that signed a contract with you responds to your call.]

[The ‘gatekeeper who opens the world’ proposes to renew the contract. If you agree, you will gain the power to obtain what you desire.]

[Do you agree to renew the contract?]

Right after that.

What message appeared.

What had been put on hold after being proposed by the Constellation in the past appeared before my eyes again.

Originally, the man had no intention of accepting this offer.

Even though the Constellation is a good being who gives strength through contracts, I had never heard of a proposal like this.

So I thought of checking more information and choosing whether or not to accept it, but…

My body was ruined in a mess.

The rapidly changing situation of the continent.

Above all, the impatience and anger that seethed.

It made the man long for power no matter what the cost.

“Accept the renewal of the contract.”

The moment when Branga, the summoning lord of only 8 level 100 players, made a decision that had been delayed.

The balance of the world is shaken.

There is a hole in the providence.

With a bright light…

Fu-wook.

Deaf!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!

—A star pierced him.

* * *

Boom!

“How are you going to take responsibility for this, Magician!”

The ghost of the 4th rank of the Liberation Brigade.

Labyrinth hit the table.

And he shouted in a loud voice as if he was vomiting fire.

“I’ll take care of it, so don’t step out and stay still! But why are we the only ones being destroyed!”

[…As the Great Star foretold, the Seven Dragons’ turmoil had already begun.]

“Only those economic sanctions? You call that a riot?”

[This is just the beginning. The conflict will grow even bigger in the future. So wait for the right time.]

“Shit! Nearly half of the branches have already been destroyed, so how much longer do we have to wait? Like this, until the brigade is all slaughtered?”

Labyrinth did not hide its hostility.

The other ghosts who attended the meeting also expressed their discomfort.

It was because the situation of the liberation brigade was that serious.

Fortunately, all the ghosts were safe as they did not go out to the eight major guilds, but nearly a third of the executives had already died.

The damage to the lower end members was difficult to estimate.

No matter how much they regarded their subordinates as tools, the loss of power and property was inevitably unpleasant.

“Stop making noise and solve this situation, or take responsibility and step down from number 2!”

[I can’t do that.]

“Are you going to avoid responsibility?”

[No, it means that I have already resigned to the third seat as a new comrade has joined our brigade.]

“…What?”

Labyrinth, of course.

While the other ghosts were panicking, the magician calmly spoke alone.

[I should have said it before. They are recruiting new comrades to fill the vacancy of comrades.]

“You gave that new comrade the 2nd place?”

[Yes.]

The ghosts were agitated.

What does it mean that the immovable second place magician gave up his place?

because everyone knew

“…It must take some time to properly accept the protection of the stars, right? What about the Holy Spirit period right now?”

[The age of maturity is already ready, and the new comrade is doing his best to adapt to the protection of the stars.

]

[Nothing to worry about.]

Maybe it’s because the position he was aiming for was passed in vain.

Even among the ghosts, Labyrinth, who had a dissatisfied expression, pointed out, the magician was not shaken.

I just answered calmly.

[The power of a new comrade has already surpassed me.]

“What?”

Labyrinth was startled.

Although he was weak among monarchs, the magician as a specter was a strong one whose odds were difficult to discuss even if other specters attacked at once.

But to say that the newcomer who had just received divine protection surpassed him.

It was an unbelievable story.

[Look forward to it.]

The magician said to those specters.

The new comrade’s natural combat power is not strong, but he has a special absolute skill instead.

If you use that power, it will play a role that is more than enough to make up for what has been lost through bounty hunting and tracking in the future.

And…

[When the new comrade finishes adapting to the Divine Protection, neither the dragon princess of the seven dragons nor the sword master will dare to be our opponent.] It was not a

guess until now.

With clear conviction and affirmation.

The specter who became third in the Liberation Brigade had a cold smile.
