Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 355
◈ 355. [Side Story] The sin born into the world (2)
In the game, hero characters interact with each other and build likability..
Relationships between each other often reflect job characteristics, and the class that gained the favor of allies the fastest was the healing priest..
Because it heals the wounds of our allies.
Next is the tank.
Since this is a job that sacrifices itself by receiving attacks from allies, it was inevitable that the favorability of the tanker would increase from the perspective of the protected hero character..
So, in the game, the second most popular class after the healer was the tank..
In most cases, there was a friendly relationship with other hero characters..
But the leprosy killing squad was different..
Their negative trait [leprosy] affected their combat performance, but it had a greater impact on their interpersonal relationships..
No matter how hard they tanked and protected their allies with their bodies, it was nearly impossible to build friendly relationships..
Still, it didn't matter to me as a user..
Performance was the top priority in the game, so I used the Leper Slaughter Squad without feeling any major problems..
But now that the game has become a reality, I am finally realizing the fatal disadvantage of [leprosy]..
This is the Leprosy Slaughter Squad, which has tanked at the forefront and fought exemplarily in all battles over the past ten days... … Even at the temple where he came to heal his injuries, he was shunned by his allies..
Even though he was injured while protecting his ally,.
“Thank you for caring about a guy like me. majesty. And His Excellency the Grand Duke.”
Thorkel insisted on being the last person to be treated, and muttered as he waited for his turn in the corner of the temple..
“But out of a moment of pity, don't get too close to us... … . Heavenly punishment is here.”
“Heavenly punishment…….”
“It's a heavenly punishment. She must have committed such a hateful crime against the goddess that she ended up living like this..”
I tried to offer words of comfort to Thorkel, but I swallowed them..
This is a person who has suffered from this disease all his life and has lived in pain..
My clumsy consolation may actually end up hurting him more..
“Since I tried to be reborn in this world without repenting all my sins, the goddess punished me appropriately..”
With blood pouring from his injured body, Thorkel mumbled insensibly..
“We were born into this world because it is a sin.…….”
It was then.
“I'm sorry for saying.”
There was a rumbling sound of a cart containing medical equipment being pulled, and a healer came next to us with a tired look on his face..
“The goddess is not that kind of person.?”
It was Saint Margerita..
She must have been tired from too much work today as she approached me with a tired face and growled in annoyance..
“How can you bring the sins of your past life into your current life and punish them for it? … Those are all stories that people made up? Our goddess is not that magnanimous..”
“…….”
Thorkel, who was embarrassed, stammered and asked:.
“Does it say so in the doctrine??”
“I am saying this because there is no mention of such a thing in the doctrine. He is God in name and appearance, but would he have so much free time to sow disease in each and every person with so much cruelty??”
Margerita took out a bandage and a bottle of medicine from the cart and pointed at Thorkel..
“No, and! I told you to get the person with the most serious injuries treated first. Mr. Thorkel. Why do you always hide in the corner and get treatment last? If I continue to get hurt like this, my work will only increase. It doesn't seem like I have a lot of work to do.?”
“……It's not a major injury..”
“It's a shame that it isn't. If anyone else had been injured this much, they would have been unconscious by now and taken over there. What is that puddle of blood at your feet? They say our priests have to clean this again.?”
“…….”
“Don't be afraid to say that you are strong, but come first next time. all right?”
Thorkel did not answer..
Margerita, with her rough and rough but precise hands, sprayed medicine on Thorkel's wounds, bandaged them, and administered healing magic..
After the treatment for the injuries on her body was roughly finished, Margerita wiped the sweat from her forehead and gestured..
“Take off your helmet. I think it's hurt on the inside too..”
“…….”
“I told you to take off your helmet.?”
“That, over there, the helmet… … not…….”
When Thorkel hesitated until the end, Margerita glared fiercely..
“I'm busy! Take it off! hurry!”
Dusk Bringer and I, who were watching this scene, hugged each other and trembled like aspen trees..
God I'm scared…….
“…….”
Hesitating, Thorkel raised his hand and slowly took off his helmet..
From where Dusk Bringer and I were, I could only see the back of his head, but I could clearly see the ugly, discolored skin..
Margerita, with a deep frown, treated the wounds on the top of his head and behind his ears..
When the treatment was almost finished, Thorkell asked quietly:.
“It's terrible?”
“Yes.”
“…….”
“It's always like that. Treating an injured person is always scary..”
After finishing the treatment, Margerita said calmly as she wiped her blood-stained hands on her apron..
“To me, there are only two types of people. Injured person, healed person.”
“…….”
“To be honest, Mr. Thorkel. I don't care about your skin or anything. Every day, I treat wounded people whose bones and internal organs beneath their skin have all been torn apart. I see something much worse than your skin disease every day..”
Looking directly into Thorkel's eyes, Margerita spat fiercely..
“So, I don't know how many times I've said this, but from now on, if your injury is serious, come and get treatment on your own first. Don't double my terrible work for no reason..”
Grumbling-
Margerita, who was pulling a cart and heading toward the inside of the temple, caught my eye. A look of puzzlement crossed her saintly face..
“His Royal Highness. Are you sick??”
“No, I'm fine, but... … Just in case, I went to get a checkup.…….”
“…….”
“……When I came, the temple looked busy, haha. I'll go back now, saintess..”
I answered hesitantly and nudged Dusk Bringer with my elbow..
‘You come here for no reason because of the Archduke.!’
‘Whoa, did you know that the atmosphere would be like this?!’
While we were doing this, Margerita came out and scolded Dusk Bringer in a stern voice..
“You are the one who declared a wartime regime at Crossroads. Currently, this place is no different from a field hospital… … If you do not have any special symptoms, it may be better to postpone the examination until a later time..”
“I'm sorry…….”
“If you're still worried, ask Damien. Or, you can call your doctor from the imperial capital. In addition, it would be nice if you could supplement the staff here..”
Margerita gave a cursory look with a tired look on her face and then disappeared inside, pulling the cart..
“…….”
“…….”
I continued to poke Dusk Bringer's side with my elbow..
Dusk Bringer flinched and was pushed to the side, saying, ‘Ah, I’m sorry-’.
“…….”
Meanwhile, Thorkel sat quietly where he was after treatment and slowly put on his helmet..
“……Unless it's because of the sin of being born into this world.”
Inside the helmet, his gruff voice was weaker and weaker than before..
“So why on earth did I suffer from this disease? If it is not heavenly punishment, what kind of cause and effect is it that we are suffering like this?.”
“…….”
“I'm sorry for causing you trouble. majesty. dismissal. I'll just go now.”
Thorkel bowed and limped out of the temple..
Standing in the empty temple, Dusk Bringer and I sighed at the same time..
“Phew~”
“Haaa…….”
Dusk Bringer, who was tasting bitterly, looked up at me and said.
“It's difficult..”
“That's right?”
That's the way the world is.
It is difficult for those who worry for no reason..
If we lump together my enemies and those with leprosy as the fault of being born into this world..
So, if we declare it to be something to be eliminated and oppressed and be done with it. the world will be easy.
But the world is not that simple.
So you have to think about it. Even if we wander without reaching the right answer, we are still human because we worry..
‘It's so extravagant…….’
I can't believe I'm worrying about this in front of the monster wave that's about to hit me..
He was so human that I laughed bitterly..

same time.
Deep in the Lake Kingdom. War Zone 8).
Built like a large stadium, this was originally a facility where residents of the Lake Kingdom could watch various intense sports..
The goblin army was using this as a base. Because they were so numerous, many other places other than this place were also occupied..
But today this Warzone was empty..
This is because the entire army had just begun to move towards the main gate of the Lake Kingdom to dispatch troops..
In the middle of the empty stadium, the Goblin God King Kali-Alexandr remained, contemplating tactics for this war..
A small number of his personal guards remained with him to guard him..
《5Is it all?.》
Finally, after repeating the number of legions he would be commanding this time, Kali-Alexandre briefly spoke..
《……It's enemy.》
At its peak, the number of goblin legions led by Kali-Alexandr was close to one million..
They united the greenskins of all continents and devastated the western part of the world. Numerous countries collapsed and numerous races became extinct..
5Although it was not a small army, it was true that it was inferior to that time..
《Genga, who gave only 50,000 men and said he would give 'a large army of unprecedented scale'. The King of Kings.》
To the Demon King, goblins are ultimately just goblins..
5He must have thought that 10,000 commands was a lot for a 'goblin king'..
《When you call my name, don't you leave out 'Kali-' and look down on my capabilities as a commander?…….》
Kali-Alexandre sighed softly..
《The King of Kings seems to have a very low opinion of our corps' capabilities..》
Still, but, loyal.
It is also true that the devil gave us a second chance..
‘How do we use these 50,000 lives?……?’
Unlike other monster legions where each and every one of them is elite, the Goblin Army is a mass offensive force that pushes through numbers..
The lives of the corps members are the bullets and the tip of the spear. The strength of the goblin army comes from generously sacrificing the lives of goblins..
50,000 might be enough to take down the defense line guarded by King Inse's guardian..
But Kali-Alexandr's goal was not at best to capture the defense line..
‘Not enough to conquer the world.’
The unfulfilled longing of a race.
To resume the halted conquest in the western lands.
That was Kali-Alexandr's purpose as leader of the goblin race..
From the beginning, the monster front that Ash defended was just an obstacle he had to overcome, and was by no means his final goal..
‘After breaking through the defense line, he heads north and gathers the remaining greenskins in Inse under his command... … By the time we reach the northern edge of the world, the Legion's former prestige will be restored..’
Like an invading army.
Cali-Alexandre decided to supply supplies and expand troops in the field..
To do so, you must first overcome the wall guarded by the guardian of royalties... … Kali-Alexandr began to subdivide the organization of 50,000 soldiers for an efficient invasion..
It was then.
Kwaang-!
The stadium's main gate shattered and fell in all directions..
The frightened Goblin Guard aimed their spear points in that direction, and Kali-Alexandr raised her eyes in confusion..
《Crrrrr. Crumbling.》
What appeared with an evil laugh was a huge green-skinned monster..
A large orc wearing armor studded with spikes all over his muscular body and carrying a large pillar as a weapon on his back..
The Orc Emperor was a 'Tantrum' Dymark.
In both of his hands, the entire head of the Goblin Guard that guarded the entrance to this base was captured..
Kwasik!
When Daimak tightened his hands, the heads of the two goblins, who were screaming in pain, burst into pieces..
The Orc Emperor laughed cruelly and threw away the body, then smeared the blood from his hands onto his lips..
Kali-Alexandr asked calmly..
《What's going on here, Dymark? I would have entrusted you with the task of stopping the ‘Nameless One’..》
《Crumbling… … Alexander. You wouldn't know it if you looked at it?》
Rumble……!
An army of orcs poured in through the open door. They were all sturdy warriors whose physiques were several times larger than those of the goblins..
In no time, Kali-Alexander and the SS were surrounded. The Orc Emperor smiled, flashing his sharp tusks..
《It's a birthmark, weakling god-king.!》
《……I was given command of this invasion by the King of Kings. If you hit me like this, the King of kings will not forgive you..》
《Crrrrr! I don't know. The King of Kings has always turned a blind eye to us killing and killing each other.!》
thud!
Daimak lightly swung the huge pole he carried on his back and brought it down to the floor. Then the Orc Emperor roared wildly..
《I will kill you here and now, and I will become the ruler of the Greenskins! And I will lead this invasion of royalties.!》
《…….》
《You goblins are the mold of the world. They are trash born from the leftover residue from God's creation of our orcs! You have no warriors, no war songs, no festivals, no honor! They're just barbaric bastards who push the numbers and set the world on fire.!》
It was absurd to hear that Orcs were barbaric, but it was actually true..
Goblins had nothing.
The God King himself ordered them to dress in the style of the old western human kingdom and have them carry weapons, but most goblins did not understand the meaning of all this. Just follow orders.
A barbarian who doesn't even have the culture of an orc..
That was a goblin. If the God King himself disappeared, the race would quickly revert to a state worse than that of the Stone Age, and that actually happened..
《I will kill you today and straighten the ranks between orcs and goblins..》
Daimark roared and started running forward..
《Goblin! You are a race born sinful! Now serve us orcs as slaves until the end of the royal family and the eons will pass.!》
《Being born is a sin…….》
Kali-Alexandr stood up and pulled out a scimitar from her belt..
《This is something I often hear..》
The Goblin God King muttered cynically..
《……I didn't even want to be born here..》
The blade of the Goblin God King collided with the pillar of the Orc Emperor..
And then the civil war between the greenskins began..
