Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 618
◈ 618. [Side Story] The last festival (8)
Originally, today's schedule was until the round of 16 of the martial arts competition..
However, the Glory Knights' game was postponed until tomorrow, considering the special nature of the situation. It's too much to ask me to play a game after such an accident..
So the rest of the game was played normally.…….
***
16Strong battle. My main party VS scary sisters.
‘The members of ‘Scary Sisters’ are Elise, Rosetta, Body Bag, Violet, and Unknown..
Is this really a championship power? It was a powerful squad, befitting heroes who displayed fearsome majesty on the front lines..
Moreover, the tactics were novel... … As soon as it started, the body bag lifted me with telekinetic magic and threw me far away..
“Wow?!”
“lord-?!”
Since there is no over-the-counter decision in this martial arts competition, I wondered why this was happening even though I was thrown far away..
“I aimed for this moment!”
While I was away from the campaign, Violet developed the [Illusion Realm].
[[Illusion Realm] is a wide-area mental abnormality. My [Indomitable Commander], which provides wide-area immunity, is the perfect counter..
But I flew out of range, so they took advantage of that gap. This connection!
Kiiiiing!
[[Illusion area] was unfolded, and the main party members suffered the same fate..
Evangeline, Lucas, and Junior all looked into space with blank expressions as if they were fascinated, with drool flowing from the corners of their mouths..
Even if I'm not there, it's not like I'm going to get hit in one go.?!
“Damn it, come back quickly... … Wow?!”
I tried to run back quickly, but the body bag fired a follow-up telekinesis spell and pinned me to the corner of the stadium. I got it right!
“Now! attack-!”
And, except for Violet, the other scary sisters rushed in..
They first focused their attack on Evangeline. Was there a lot of stuff accumulated??
“Ugh, you traitor... … ! We said we'd be together until the end!”
“You showed us such a dream, and then abandoned us! This is heretical point settlement.!”
“I'm not sure... … If not at a time like this, when will I hit the chairman again??”
“Yes, I will hit you gently. Tell me if it hurts!”
Elise, Rosetta, the body bag, and even the innocent-looking face pounded Evangeline..
“Even if I fall here…….”
Evangeline cried solemnly as she finally sank under the torrent of anger..
“The dream of a handsome harem... … will remain immortal…….”
“Why are you immortalizing something like that?! What on earth are you dreaming about?!”
I squeaked, trying to peel off the telekinesis spell..
Anyway, Evangeline, the front-line tank, was knocked down..
Next, the scary sisters' eyes turned to Lucas. Lucas looked into space with his blank eyes and said:.
“…… It's okay, my lord. Go out with Serenade. I will be looking at the house today. sure. I will feed the baby with formula, play with him, and put him to sleep with Kokkonen. Who am I? Isn’t she the watchdog and housekeeper who guards this house? So don't worry and have a nice date.…….”
What kind of fantasy are you showing your child?-?!
Why did you become a housekeeper and golden retriever guarding the home of a newlywed couple who just had a baby? What kind of dream have you fallen into?!
“Hooooh…….”
The serenade I was watching from the audience somehow sounded very satisfying. No, no, she shouldn't feel bad about it now.!
“…….”
“…….”
“…….”
Anyway, the scary sisters glared fiercely at Lucas, then quickly withdrew their gaze and passed by..
“I'm having the same dream, so I can't bear to touch it..”
“I'll pass it on..”
“Look, let me take a look.…….”
“I hope your dreams come true. Knight.”
Why are you even cheering! What are you doing?!
The next target of the scary sisters is Junior..
Junior, who was tricked by a wizard with perfect magic stats in one hit, is confused..
The scary sisters laughed evilly as they approached her..
It was then. Junior muttered softly..
“My taste is… … What is it……?”
“…….”
“…….”
“…….”
The scary sisters stopped in shock and exchanged serious glances..
“I don't think you should touch this either..”
“Well, this might be a very important moment for you, Junior..”
“Please come to a good conclusion.……!”
“……What a taste. what are you talking about?”
Only Mu-myeong, who couldn't follow the conversation alone, tilted his head..
Anyway, those who skipped Lucas and then Junior finally turned their heads to find Damian. and.
“Disgusting, I found it.!”
Damian smiled calmly and shot an arrow at the fake dragon..
“……?!”
One beat late, the scary sisters opened their mouths, but the arrows were already flying..
Damien's [clairvoyance] sees through the essence of others..
Although hearing, smell, touch, etc. may be disturbed, Damien's vision is not affected by the [Illusion Area] in the first place. Oh my god, such a scam!
So Damian pretended to be under an illusion from the beginning and stood still, looking for the fake dragon's evil point... … The arrow was fired just now..
widely!
The arrow hit exactly the right point, and the bell immediately rang to end the game. Dengdengdeng-!
“Oh my, this can't be happening…….”
“The tactic was perfect... … Ugh, I let my guard down..”
The scary sisters flopped down in their seats with devastated faces. Only Moo-myung is applauding Damian, saying it was a great match..
And when the [Illusion Area] was released, the rest of my main party members fell to the floor..
Evangeline and Lucas came to their senses a beat late and looked around..
“……Hey, my harem, where are you?……?”
“Baby? Baby, where have you gone? It’s time to drink powdered milk… … And hush hush…….”
Come to your senses, children of many dreams.…….
“Heo Eok?!”
At that time, Junior fell with his arms on the floor, pouring out a cold sweat and muttering..
“What, what… … I think I had a dream where a spinach drink and a tomato drink were fighting, telling each other to choose who they were..”
“Ah, what I was thinking about was your taste.……?”
After returning to the center of the stadium, I first took care of the main party members who were still unconscious. I also showered praise on Damien..
Afterwards, I nodded my head loudly towards ‘Scary Sisters.’.
“Great tactic, folks. It wouldn't be surprising if you won.”
You devised and implemented a tactic that excludes me and inflicts mental abnormalities..
It truly deserves praise. In fact, if Damian hadn't held on with [clairvoyance], we would have actually lost..
I praised each and every member of ‘Scary Sisters’. Elise and Rosetta were truly disappointed, while Bodybag and Moo-myeong laughed and said they had fun..
finally… … I approached Violet, who was hiding in a corner, looking for the right moment to escape, and forcibly shook her hand..
“That was great work, Violet. As the days go by, my ability to perform illusions increases..”
“No, well, thank you.…….”
“I look forward to the Black Dragon Conquest Battle as well..”
“yes?”
I smiled brightly and left the stadium, leaving her behind..
After a few seconds, Violet came to her senses and her face turned pale..
She suddenly tried to run out of the city, but when I flicked my hand, other gambling club members appeared and grabbed her and dragged her screaming into the city..
Where are you going? The festival is in full swing, so enjoy it some more..
I hate it…….
Violet's screams were drowned out by the cheers and applause from the audience..
This is how the first match of the round of 16 ended. After coming out of the stadium, I looked around at the main party members and made an announcement..
“Now, let's each take a break today! You can watch the remaining games, go somewhere and have fun, have fun. The quarterfinals are tomorrow, so gather at the manor house tomorrow morning..”
Party members all say yes! I answered.
After saying good job today, the party members dispersed and dispersed to see if they had somewhere else to go..
I watch the backs of children heading to various parts of the city.,
“lord.”
Lucas approached me cautiously..
“Lucas. what's the matter? If you are applying for a future housekeeper position, there is still some time left until the announcement is made. Please submit your application documents later..”
”Well, please stop making fun of me about that... … rather than that.“
Lucas, who was thinking while rolling his blue eyes, looked straight at me..
“I have something to say about Hecate..”
Evangeline, who was walking in that direction, suddenly made a U-turn and was seen listening..
I laughed bitterly..
“okay. Even so, I… … I felt like we needed to talk..”
***
Honey from Inn Eti. Second floor.
“…….”
Hecate was standing in front of the locked door of her room, looking down in despair at the key in her hand..
Because I was involved in an accident, the bag I was carrying was turned into a mess... … The room key that was in the bag was also crushed..
1I could have gone down to the lobby and asked the staff for a new key, but I didn't feel motivated to do so. She had a hard time even explaining the bloody bandages..
Hecate stumbled and collapsed in the hallway..
‘What happened…….’
She looked down at her bandaged body..
‘How did it end up like this?.’
It was the life she chose.
As a subject of the Empire, she respected the Emperor, and from the moment she first picked up her sword, her goal was to become a Glory Knight..
He willingly gave his life and fought for his empire..
And now I was diagnosed with not much time left..
The emperor himself gave her free time, and Hecate came down to the southern end of the world in search of friends from her school days..
Dressed up, I was very excited about the festival after a long time..
However, I feel awkward with my old friends and cannot approach them easily. The plan to show off in a martial arts competition was ruined by an accident..
‘With such a cursed body... … I can't reach Lucas again…….’
I remembered the image of young mercenaries running away in fright after seeing themselves being reassembled..
Ash's face froze in surprise..
and… … He ran out late to protect Ash, and when he saw himself from afar, he turned pale as expected. Lucas' face.
‘You shouldn't come.’
Only then did Hecate realize the reality. He now realizes that he is very different from an ordinary person..
No matter how much you try to wrap it up, in the end it's just a monster wrapped in a curse..
‘It would just quietly disappear. It will remain as a beautiful memory of my school days.…….’
Why did you come all the way here, looking so ugly and tarnishing even my good memories?.
Hecate looked to the side while squatting in the hallway..
Outside the inn window, I could see a square in the distance. I saw a group of people laughing and talking in the bright afternoon sunlight..
“…….”
I can't even step out of the shadows.
I envied that smile that could smile under the sunlight..
And honestly.
very little.
‘……I hate you.’
It was at that time that Hecate, gritting her teeth, covered her face with both hands and desperately tried to suppress the surge within her..
“Hey, over there.!”
A very nervous, stuttering voice rang out from in front..
“……?”
Embarrassed, Hecate urgently swept her face with her hands, wiped the watery corners of her eyes with the back of her arm, and looked ahead..
“What, the door? Is it because the door won't open? The inn here is so old that the locks break down all the time! So I often suffer too.!”
Junior was standing.
We had just returned from the round of 16. I only came to pick up my luggage, but I ran into Hecate squatting in front of the door..
He did his best to avoid looking at Hecate's tearful face, sweating profusely from embarrassment..
And again, in a voice that seemed to have mustered up courage…….
The hesitating young wizard asked cautiously:.
“Do, do, help... … Wow?!”
I chewed my tongue while asking..
“…….”
Junior stood still for a moment with his tongue dripping with light blood, and somehow became embarrassed... … I spit out the repertoire I had been using two years ago..
“……It's a gag.”
It wasn't funny at all.
But it was so absurd that Hecate stopped laughing..
