29. Paid 5x Gacha (4)
“port…….”
I kicked the sword hilt stuck in Avant’s back.
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“You have to be honest. You can’t hear me.”
“Stop it. We lost! Leave Avant alone!”
“Leave me alone?”
I held the tip of the sword hilt and turned it. The wound opened with the sound of flesh being torn. Avant only let out a groan.
“Did you guys just think of leaving people alone? They’re so eager to eat you.”
“Well, that has nothing to do with it!”
“If I have a relationship, then there is. And it’s a duel that we both agreed on, so why are you guys arguing? It’s up to the parties involved to decide whether to quit or not. If the loser says he lost, then it’s over.”
“Hangbo… Eup!”
I shut Avant’s mouth.
“If you don’t talk, it won’t end.”
The mercenaries looked at me with dumbfounded faces.
I sat on Avant’s back. Avant twisted his body, as if that alone hurt.
“This guy is my prey. Don’t care if he dies or not. Go to sleep.”
“Crazy bastard! Do you think you’ll be safe even after doing this! You know who we are!”
“Did you say maned wolf mercenaries?”
I looked at Edith. She kept her head down with her hard face. I asked.
“Edith, are maned wolves really a mercenary?”
Edith closed her eyes and said
“It used to be like that. Now, now it’s just…”
“It’s a gang of bandits. Or go round the back of the client’s head. I knew that. What are you doing hanging out with them?”
“I-I, at my father’s request…”
“Edith, think carefully. Are you going to hang out with that scumbag? Or are you coming over here?”
“I am…….”
“Where is this bitch trying to shake her ass at the enemy! Do you want to die!”
“The killifish is noisy.”
“This bastard…! Edith, you should decide carefully. You know what the traitor said, right?”
“This is what garbage says.”
I hit Avant on the back of the head.
“Come this way. I just needed one, and that’s great.”
“You know the cost of betrayal, Edith!”
“…”
Edith raised her eyes as if determined and walked in front of me. I said with a smile.
“As expected, people have to be able to walk the rope well.”
[‘Edith (★★★)’ is leaving the ‘Maned Wolf Mercenary Corps’!]
[The bond ‘Maned Wolf Mercenary Corps’ will be disbanded.]
“This damned…”
“I have nothing to do with the rest of you. Get out of here.”
“port…….”
“But is it really okay if I tell you? You’ll get eaten by me.”
Avant groped the floor with his right arm. Avant’s sword fell not far away. I trampled on the back of his hand.
“Kkeuugh! You, me, after touching me, you’ll regret it… Kkeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
I grabbed the sword stuck in Avant’s wingbone and turned it around.
“It’s annoying now. Tell me quickly.”
“No, no!
“This, this guy! This guy, hey hey hey!”
The three men drew their weapons and charged.
Isel blocked his way.
[The duel is not over! Don’t interfere!]
“Get out of the way, rat, if you get in the way, I’ll kill you!”
Jaqen swung an ax at Issel’s head.
The other two also stabbed spears and swords from the side.
and.
‘It’s caught.’
“bye.”
[‘Jaken (★★★)’ has returned to the arms of the goddess. His fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]
[‘Waif (★★★)’ has returned to the arms of the goddess. His fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]
[‘Baignin (★★★)’ returned to the arms of the goddess. His fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]
[Sudden death!]
[Cause of death – Suicide due to stress]
[Don’t interfere. Don’t look twice.]
Three corpses with missing heads were scattered in the square. Issel brushed the blood off her hands with her emotionless eyes. Then she flew towards me, her eyes twinkling.
[Loki, what about me! Are you just cool? good job? how was it!]
“good job.”
[Cheer up!]
Isel turned around and disappeared on the spot.
I turned my gaze to Avant. Avant looked at his comrade’s corpse with empty eyes and murmured.
“surrender…….”
Avant’s head dropped.
[‘Han (★)’ has been removed from the berserker state.]
I dragged the limp Avant and took it to the synthetic lab. The guy didn’t resist.
[‘Han(★)’ won the duel with ‘Avant(★★★)’! Avant will be synthesized.]
Several ripples appeared on the master’s control panel.
It’s just randomly touching the screen.
‘You must want to cancel.’
If that’s the case, you shouldn’t have allowed it in the first place. I don’t think I even knew there was a dueling system.
[Synthesis complete!]
[‘Avant (★★★)’ turns into light and disappears.]
[‘Han (★)’, level up! ‘Low level swordsmanship’ and ‘Pain resistance’ skills increased!]
[Your hero has reached the limit level. If you want to level up further, please level up!]
[Tips/Levels can be raised with Upgrade Stones, or Heroes of the same grade or higher than a certain level. Promotion is possible up to 7 stars.]
I came out to the square and laughed.
I lost the high-level heroes I picked for the first time without even rolling them properly. Looking at the free 10-line drawing solely for synthesis, it seems that I was expecting quite a bit.
But what about It was a joke.
No matter how much you grow, you will only lose. I don’t know if there will be a temporary power increase, but if those guys come out, the waiting room won’t work properly. You will appreciate me when you know the truth later.
‘You must know that I am the cause.’
I am level 10
He has 4 skills, and his overall stats are already approaching 3 stars.
Won MVP in almost every battle.
I made C-class equipment that Amkena couldn’t even dare to do now, and I collected a lot of rare materials in the daily dungeon.
‘If you’re going to go, change.’
If you’re stupid enough to grind me out of this situation, you can’t climb the top anyway.
The corpse in the plaza gradually turned to light and disappeared.
Edith was looking at the scene with a confused expression.
“Did you have any companions?”
“No, but I was one of them…”
It doesn’t matter much.
It’s just the past. I haven’t lived a clean life either.
“Come in when you calm down. Find an empty room on your own.”
I passed Edith and went back to the inn.
It was very late. As soon as I opened the door, the eyes of dozens of people in the lobby turned to me at once. A lot of people had gathered.
‘what.’
“As expected, my older brother is amazing!”
Dicka clenched her fists. her eyes lit up.
‘Haa, I really can’t stop it.’
I walked over to Jenna, who was sitting on the couch.
And he tugged at his cheek without mercy.
“Ah, ayayayayaya! What are you doing!”
“Didn’t I say something useless?”
“It’s only getting worse when you live with your tongue!”
When I let go of my hand, Jenna rubbed her reddened cheeks and said,
“I was trying to convey the coolness of my brother.”
“Fuck it.”
I punched Jenna’s forehead.
Jenna frowned and grabbed her forehead.
A middle-aged man approached while I was aung daung.
It was Joffrey, whom I had heard earlier.
“Ha, Mr. Han. I heard about it. Thank you. I heard about their behavior. They said they tried to kill the people who just came by threatening them with a knife…”
“It was! He was such a bad guy!”
The lady who was sitting in the corner of the lobby said. She was one of those who had just come close to death in the square.
“I see you’re mistaken.”
“I know. We’re not that shameless either. But we just want to say thank you. We’re alive thanks to you.”
“The only ones I’ve saved are still newcomers. I have nothing to do with you guys.”
“What do you mean?”
I said with a grin.
“Because the master seems to be really pissed off.”
[Master, synthesis begins.]
[Drag and drop a hero to be sacrificed to the hero you want to synthesize! You can get experience points. The sacrificed hero will perish.]
Isel’s cry was heard in the plaza.
[Lewis, Joffrey, Owen, Andio, Arnold, Duncan, even Harold! 6 people like this. Gather in front of me!]
The faces of the people whose names were called turned pale.
Joffrey looked back, sweating.
“Mo, everyone’s fine! We’re going to catch the goblins as always.”
“Do you really think so?”
Joffrey’s body stiffened.
This guy is quick-witted. That’s why he was able to act smartly. If so, he would also know what it means to call 6 people now.
If you intended to send a sub party, you only need to call 5 people. However, the number of people that Isell called just now is 6 people in total. One person overflows.
So the purpose changes.
“We split into pairs of three…”
“Your head is a very flower garden.”
I walked slowly to the sofa in the middle of the lobby. Every time I walked, people backed away and got out of the way. A few people sitting on the sofa got up and walked away as if they were running away.
Jenna is the only one sitting on the sofa. I sat down next to him and crossed my legs.
“How long did you think you’d be able to get over it?”
“Ooh, we did our best!”
“Aaron, Dicka! From your point of view, did they really give their best? What were they doing while you guys were sweating at the training camp all day?”
Two could not answer.
I just lowered my head in the corner of the lobby.
“Jenna! Have I ever properly helped you on your hunt?”
“I did carry the meat and skins I slaughtered.”
“Even pigs and dogs can carry it. In that respect, you guys seem to have only as much value as pigs and dogs.”
“A pig and a dog!”
I kicked the one stepping forward as I got up.
It rolls over and rolls across the carpet floor.
“Don’t grumble.”
Louis grabbed the crotch of his trousers and stretched.
“Help us! If it’s your request, the Master will do it too!”
[Come out to the square! Can’t hear me! There is no end to these things!]
Isel appeared and groaned.
[Lewis, Joffrey, Owen, Andio, Arnold, Duncan! If you don’t want to get scolded, come quickly!]
“What are you trying to do with us?”
[What do you ask, synthetic.]
‘The target must be Edith.’
The freshly summoned Edith has a low level. It was a reasonable action. Every time a new high-ranking hero was summoned, a pile of useless low-level heroes would be sacrificed.
“I’m not going, I’m not going!”
Those nominated for sacrifice fled into the inn. Issel smiled like a mischievous child and grabbed them one by one and sent them flying through the open door into the plaza. A few others pulled the doorknob on the room in the hallway, but the door wouldn’t open.
In the end, all six of them went to the plaza.
and.
[Synthesis complete!]
[‘Louis(★)’ becomes light and disappears.]
[‘Joffrey (★)’ becomes light and disappears.]
[‘Owen(★)’… … .]
[‘Edith (★★★)’, level up! Trap release skill acquisition!]
silence.
The lobby is quiet.
I said.
“It doesn’t matter who you were until you came here. Rich or poor. Leave all that out.”
“…”
“Don’t think of being put on top of yourself. Don’t mistake yourself for someone protecting you. Prove that you’re useful if you want to live.”
Suddenly, one of the people hiding among the people came out, wiping away tears.
“I have no talent for fighting. Even holding a sword makes me tremble. What should I do! Are you telling me to die!”
“Chloe. Enoch. Alter. Patrick.”
The eyes of the people whose names were called turned to me.
Four assistants in the current waiting room. Each is a cook, a carpenter, a blacksmith, and a tanner.
“If anyone wants to, teach them the technique.”
“Blacksmithing isn’t that easy to learn, but…”
said the man with the white beard. He was an Alter in charge of a blacksmith.
“If you have the will, you can learn on your own.”
Repeated actions in the waiting room are reborn as skills. This means that skill acquisition is fast.
“Come to me if you want to fight. I’ll beat you up. If you want to learn hunting and butchering, go to Zena, if you want to learn carpentry, go to Enoch.
[Master, do you want to close the connection?]
[Yes / No]
[Then goodbye!]
The sky darkened.
One by one, people disappeared into the room. A dark shadow was cast over their faces.
The ones left in the lobby are me, Jenna, Aaron and Dicka.
Jenna, who was sitting next to her, said.
“Your brother is kind.”
“Me? That’s funny.”
“You taught me how to live.”
That’s not wrong.
If you do as I say, you won’t die so absurdly. It was just Amkena’s way of venting her anger, but
Even if it wasn’t today, they were the ones who would be disposed of someday.
Deca murmured.
“Brother, we…”
“You do what you do.”
“thank you.”
‘I didn’t want to do such a troublesome thing.’
My head is about to explode just because of my work.
I thought of Edith, who would be standing in the middle of the square. Did he say he was from a mercenary? If you’ve been to many places, you must have a lot of experience.
The 10th floor is slowly approaching.
It was time for a second party.
It’s not just a party that doesn’t sound like a sub, just what I said so far, it’s a powerful force that can compete with the main party.
