Chapter 238
Episode 238 Awl (3)
The moment I spoke.
“……!”
The clown took a deep breath, revealing a feeling of bewilderment that could never be hidden by a mask.
That response alone was almost as if the authenticity had been confirmed.
However, was the content too shocking?
“A corpse collector…?”
The members stared at one place urgently with eyes that were hard to believe.
The place where the jewel of the round table is located.
Before long, the jewel shone and emitted color.
It was a very bright green light.
“……It was true.”
Now people’s eyes have moved again.
It’s not the point where the useless jewel is, but the direction where the clown looks like the brain has stopped.
“…….”
The clown didn’t say anything at the gaze full of wariness or hostility.
Of course, it’s not that their eyes are uncomfortable.
A guy like that wouldn’t have revealed that Ji was from Noark first.
‘They’re probably surprised that I know who I am.’
Originally, I didn’t intend to show this off either.
Well, it would have to be close to impossible to identify ‘Bjorn Yandel’ with just this, but…… I
decided that the damage would be greater if I dared to reveal it.
‘But I thought the plate would be laid on its own.’
Had I identified myself first, the clown might have assumed that I had recently obtained the information.
But what about now?
[Mr. Crescent Moon said that Mr. Saja seemed to know all of our identities. I guess that’s not the case.]
The clown made a natural composition by provoking.
no where is that?
This guy even revealed that he was from Noark. To put it simply, even if his identity is exposed, he is not the type to leave the meeting or leave.
‘Well, since being a player is known all over the world anyway, his identity might not have been that important like the other kids.’
Thanks to that, there is nothing to shy away from.
Can you keep the plan B of digging up information as much as possible while exposing your identity and feeding taffy?
There are even several additional benefits.
Since it has been revealed that he is from Noark, the members will openly expect information from him.
In addition, the character of the lion was built more solidly in front of the members, leaving room for misunderstanding to the new queen.
This is also a very important part for me.
The more the lion looks like a deceased person, the harder it will be to associate me with Bjorn Yandel.
In fact, I saw a dog benefit.
“…It’s a secret chat room with a corpse collector.
The short silence ended with the queen muttering.
“…Fishit, you ate this one.”
The clown pretended not to lose his composure and let out a forced smile.
“…….”
The goblin hadn’t been able to make eye contact with the clown since hearing the word ‘corpse collector’, and the fox and deer antlers sent me a more wary gaze than the clown.
“…You really knew everything.”
“Who the hell are you…”
Great yes. it’s this
I tried my best to keep the corners of my mouth raised and chewed on the words as nonchalantly as possible. As he did so, his attention turned to the clown again.
“Well then, why don’t you tell me how you feel about being uncovered? Corpse collector.”
The deer antlers were talking in an aggressive tone, as if there was a story.
However, the clown didn’t lose at all.
“…Fisit Well? What do you think? That you’re a more dangerous person than you think?”
“You pretend to be relaxed until the end.”
“That’s why I can only see something with my eyes. Do you think I’ll care about you? Didn’t I live in hiding like you guys?”
There is nothing wrong with the clown’s words.
But did you feel something in the nuance?
“…You can’t believe that you’re still going to stay at the meeting even though it’s come to this point?”
“Yes. Oh, but I hope you don’t misunderstand that I’m staying because of you. All I want to stay is because of Mr. Susa.”
To be honest, this reaction was a bit surprising.
From killing himself to revealing his identity, he stabbed his stomach with repeated hits, but he still pretends to be close to me.
Is this bastard a punching bag of some kind?
Even while admiring it inwardly, the battle between the antlers and the clown continued.
“By the way, Mr. Antlers, you’d better watch out for your snout. What are you doing if I come to you anyway?”
“I don’t think there’s anything to worry about. I’m not stupid enough to recklessly expose my identity like you.”
“Are you sure that Phisht will do that? There are about four people I can guess, right? If I kill them all, wouldn’t there be a correct answer?”
“If you’re coming, come and see me. Do you think I’ll be scared? It’s been a while since I was beaten to death by a barbarian, but it seems that my arrogant personality is still the same.”
“You… do you really want to die?”
Judging by the rave reviews, the winner was the deer antlers.
Soon after, the clown spewed life and pressed the deer’s antlers, but the deer’s antlers didn’t budge, perhaps at the same level as each other.
That was when
“Stop it now. Members should be friendly with each other. Yes?”
The queen stepped in and intervened between the two.
It was a little funny.
What kind of new member is this?
“Don’t do that, turn around the next wheel. I didn’t know it before I tried it, but it was really fun.”
The fight between the two stopped, as if the queen’s absurd personal power was impressive.
Just the moment you want to go to the next wheel.
“…I’ll stop here.”
The fox declared a give-up.
No matter how many times they tried in front of them, they didn’t seem to have any useful information. This was not surprising as this sometimes happened.
But…
“I’ll wait outside until it’s over.”
Instead of leaving the chat room, the fox chose to open the door and go out and wait.
It was the first time I became a member.
“When you’re done, be sure to give me some time. I have something to tell you.”
What do you want me to tell you…
Is it related to the fact that I’ve been absent-minded earlier?
“…Maybe you already know.”
Soon, the fox left, leaving a meaningful message, and the second wheel started right away.
***
The first order was the queen.
She seemed to like the system of this gathering, and she brought out information in a cheerful voice.
“Everyone knows GM, right? But I don’t know if you know this. Hehe! Many people misunderstand this community, but isn’t this community created by GM?”
It was a voice that did not doubt the free pass, but of course the light emitted by the jewel was red.
“to…?”
Seeing the bewildered queen, the deer antlers recited:
“This is the information the investigator told you about before.”
Information that I had already pulled out at a rally once.
“……Do you think the investigator knew about this?”
The queen stared at me.
Apparently, his curiosity about me has grown even more.
Well, that was the same for me.
‘Who is he really?’
It was high-level information that no one knew at the conference, but to know this.
‘Maybe it’s the person from the community management team…’
It was the moment when such a thought suddenly bloomed.
‘No, wait.’
I had only met him once, but the face of one person who had been engraved in my unconscious flashed into my mind.
The woman who acted as a guide when I first entered this community, telling me various things.
‘Come to think of it, my nickname was also Soul Queens.’
Coincidentally, that woman chose a queen mask.
The clown said that the mask usually chooses the one most similar to itself…
Is this really a coincidence?
It’s also blonde and white with the same hair?
‘… Listening to it, it seems that the voices are similar. Why didn’t I think of this right away?’
It’s belatedly, I thought, but it’s only natural when you think about it. Even if you don’t see just one nose, a person’s impression can change drastically.
If there wasn’t a point called ‘Queen’, I wouldn’t even have thought of ‘Soul Queens’ subconsciously.
‘It’s not certain yet, but it’s better to think it’s that way for now.’
While sorting out the possibilities, the queen spit out new information and was again disqualified.
“Hmm, it’s better to go to the latest information to be sure that this has happened. Within a few years, 6-person binding magic will be popular. The exploration structure is completely reversed. How is it? It’s amazing—.”
Hey, how many people are playing the back drum?
“what?”
Looking at the red-lit jewel, the queen showed a look of bewilderment.
“Isn’t there something wrong with this?”
“It can’t be. This information has already been mentioned once. Half a year has passed, so it must be about a year and a half before the binding magic will appear.”
“And for how long? Are the standards really high here?”
The Queen let out an innocent exclamation, and the clown laughed arrogantly.
“Isn’t Phish just a low standard there?”
He probably didn’t mean it
either . It was because he showed a presence that was not too far behind
.
Oh, by the way, when the word ‘level’ came up, the goblin kept his mouth shut and hesitated.
One notice can’t be anything other than astonishing. “Hmm, this is a bit
difficult …”
Saying that with feeling, I tried for the third time. “It’s
a lie
that the king is sick.”
……
Huh ?
It
‘s a simple reason.
Because the opposite information had been mentioned earlier through the mouth of a jester.
[The King of Lapdonia’s condition has worsened.]
In a way, it could be said to be the weakness of the Round Table.
That person is 100% sure If you’re doing, the jewel turns on the green light.
It only covers the authenticity, not the fact.
Well, if it weren’t for that in the first place, you would have accessed all kinds of information using this system.
“It’s a headache.”
“Yes? Troublesome?”
The antlers sighed and explained the matter to the queen.
“Well, no one lied, but you mean one of them got it wrong
? ”
Wouldn’t it be natural for it to be published? Everyone who knows that the king is sick knows it, but I’m the only one who knew it but was sure it was a lie,
right
?
” …What did you say just now?”
The clown grew angry at the queen’s provocation.
However, the queen only smirked back.
“Then, where did you get the information from the clown? I met the king in person. But are you surer than me?”
“……Anyone can say that
? Now let’s get our hands on the jewel and we’ll talk. Then
the queen said that she had met the king, and the jewel turned green.
“…….” The clown
couldn’t say anything about it.
How did he become such a character? “After the lion
,
another monster came in. A player who can contact the king…”
“It’s not that much. I only had one chance to do that.”
The queen imprinted her presence on the members from the first meeting, befitting her mask. “Why
do only these people keep increasing…?”
It’s a bonus
that it’s wrinkled. Goblin-sama does it this time!”
“I mean me?”
“Yes!”
The queen naturally radiated an aura and took the lead. The goblin could not refuse and obediently took the next turn
. Found a way to break through. It seemed like it could be done right now. Oh, but the premise is that 30 high priests must gather and pray.”
Yes, finally, a method has been found. Perhaps in the near future, a second
subjugation party
may be formed. “That
’s right, corpse collectors.” do you have I heard earlier that the temple is going to withdraw its support from the royal family.”
“Do you really believe that religious powers or something like that can rebel against the royal family?” ”
There’s no ‘him’ in the royal family anymore?
” If I knew it was them, I wouldn’t talk about it.”
At this point, the deer antlers and the clown started bickering.
“Uh… won’t you stop this time?”
The goblin noticed the queen, but the queen seemed to be interested. I watched.
“Why? Now that I look at it, this also seems like a fun point.”
“Isn’t that so?”
Even the queen stood by and the conversation seemed to go on endlessly, but unexpectedly, the winner was decided quickly.
“Oh, that’s right. Congratulations. I heard you got a new nickname this time?”
“……What does that mean?”
The clown reacted to hearing it for the first time.
“Oh, don’t you know? A new nickname called a toy collector?”
“Oh, what an idiot.”
The Queen covered her mouth with her hand to see if she knew anything, and the deer antlers continued to explain without hiding her laughter.
“Toy collector. It was named because you look like a baby.”
“I’m like a baby…?”
The clown noticed that he didn’t understand.
As if it was an expected reaction, the deer tilted its head exaggeratedly.
“Why? Isn’t it? Bjorn Yandel is famous for talking about it every day at drinking parties?”
“That guy…?”
The clown’s voice began to tremble, as if he had understood something.
The perfect timing for a finishing blow.
” I hear you’re small?”
The antlers, like a dead person, didn’t miss the chance and stabbed a dagger into the heart.
Crackling.
There was a sound of something breaking at the corner of the clown’s mouth.
I had time to apologize inwardly.
“… .”
Oh, I’m sorry.
I begged
you to keep it a little secret
.
