◈ 665. [STAGE 40] Black Dragon Subjugation Battle (2)
《…….》
For some reason, the black dragon chuckled at my proposal for a meeting..
《accept.》
Fortunately, the meeting was accepted.
The breath it was gathering slowly faded away. After feeling the hostility dissipating, I let out a sigh of relief..
I turned around and looked at the heroes and gave an order..
“30You have about a minute. In the meantime, everyone retreat..”
Among the embarrassed heroes, Lucas jumped out and shouted..
“Lord, what on earth is this?……!”
“I have a way. As always, I dug a hole to escape to..”
I smiled softly as I made eye contact with Lucas and the other heroes..
“Trust me, everyone retreat..”
The subjugation operation has already failed..
Anyway, do I stay here and get everyone wiped out, or do I stay alone and have a meeting with this guy? That's the difference.
Lucas is a man who knows the situation calmly more than anyone else and has outstanding skills as a commander. You know which one is the more likely choice..
Even though he knew it, Lucas gritted his teeth and stepped in front of me..
“If we all fight to the death……!”
“lucas.”
I changed my voice to become stern..
“Have I ever gambled without winning??”
“…….”
Lucas shook his head slightly..
“……He never gambled against the odds, but he always bet his life as a chip..”
“The destruction of the world is out there. Then I have to walk this much..”
After glaring at the Night Bringer, who was now sitting leisurely in his seat, I squeezed Lucas' shoulder..
“Lucas. If I cannot return right away, you will have to take charge in the meantime. got it?”
“…….”
“And, Lucas, remember this. You must never be eaten by the darkness.”
I tried to sound warm to this driver, who was sure to immediately release his limiter without me..
“Even if the enemy is darkness, you must not be eaten by darkness..”
“…….”
“This is also a request to all of you..”
I looked around at all the heroes and nodded..
“While I'm gone, don't let the darkness eat you.”
After making eye contact with everyone's trembling eyes once in a while,
I smiled at Dusk Bringer one last time..
“Well then, Grand Duke. please take care of people.”
“…….”
Dusk Bringer shook his head with a face that looked like he was about to cry..
“I am Ash. But, I…….”
“grandee.”
I squeezed her bloody hand with both hands..
“I will believe it.”
“…….”
Dusk Bringer closed his mouth tightly and lowered his head..
I shouted out loud to the heroes who still didn't know what to do..
“It's an order from the commander.!”
Looking at my people, all of whom were covered in blood, I smiled softly..
Evangeline was severely injured while blocking the Night Bringer's charge in the middle of the battle and was replaced with a reserve unit.,
Even Damian, who uses his clairvoyance until he loses his eyesight, closes his eyes and bleeds.,
Even though he used up all of his future magic power, it wasn't enough, so Junior continued to use magic and eventually passed out due to exhaustion of magic power.…….
My proud people who fought together with all their might.
“Everyone, retreat immediately..”
And then I turned around and started walking towards Night Bringer alone..
“I wish you all good luck.”
“majesty!”
“No, Your Majesty.!”
The heroes protested and ran forward, but Lucas, who gritted his teeth and stood in front of them, stretched out his arms to block them..
“I'm retreating!”
Lucas shouted in a voice that felt like he was spitting out blood..
“This is the commander's order... … Everyone retreats to Crossroads.!”
I heard fierce opposition continuing, but following Lucas, Dusk Bringer and King Poseidon came forward and began to calm the heroes and urge them to retreat..
It was a matter that had been discussed with those two in advance. I was just assuming the worst case scenario where the strategy I planned from the beginning of the game didn't work properly.…….
‘The nameless…….’
I think that if Mu-myeong had remained here, he would have opposed it the most vehemently..
Nameless had just been grabbed by the Night Bringer himself and thrown down that bridge - a cliff a thousand miles away..
Since you are eternal, you will be safe..
Aside from that, I thought about each of the heroes under my command and shook my head slightly..
There is no need to worry about your subordinates..
《Did you strategically use this card called the commander's meeting to safely retreat your subordinates??》
……Because really, it looks like I'll die first..
《To remain alone in place of your subordinates is a sacrificial spirit that brings tears to your eyes. He is a role model as a commander..》
When I stood right in front of it, the black dragon was truly as huge as Mount Tai..
Although his actual size was huge, his unique force and majesty made his presence seem even bigger..
materialized night)-
To be honest, I was out of breath, but I tried to calmly raise the corners of my mouth..
“I don't know why everyone treats me like a saint. I just make moves according to the odds of winning..”
I am the one who conquers this world.
Instead of an immediate game over, if you can throw a king and continue the match... … It's something worth doing.
《If the odds you are talking about are the difference between Asenggi's and Hanghasi's, then there would be a ten thousand times difference between the two..》
flashing!
The Night Bringer's large body flashed black, but the next moment, it transformed into a human form..
Long flowing black hair, sparkling golden eyes. And a man in a classy suit whispered to me..
《Actually, it doesn't mean much. The probability of failure is infinitely high anyway..》
“You're bad at math.?”
Well, I was a loser too, but I said this with some bravado..
“No matter how rare it is, there is a difference of ten thousand times..”
《Huhuhu.》
Night Bringer opened his mouth and smiled slightly..
But its eyes were not smiling at all. He is an opponent whose intentions are difficult to guess..
《All right, player. It's the last moment in your life.》
When he winked, the darkness that covered the Lake Kingdom came in waves and coalesced into the shape of two chairs..
The Night Bringer, sitting comfortably on one of them, looked at me intently..
《What do you want to talk about with me??》
“…….”
Without hesitation, I sat down on the chair across from him and.
“Why are you trying to destroy the world??”
And I asked what I was most curious about first..
“What bad did this world do to you that you hate it so much??”
《…….》
Nightbringer rested his chin on one arm and looked at me intently..
And then he suddenly asked me the wrong thing..
《player. Do you know why you are called a player??》
I crossed my eyebrows. What I hate the most is answering questions with questions.…….
But I decided to match the rhythm. From the monster's point of view, I answered why he calls me a player..
“Because I am a player who plays a game with the devil and the fate of this world.?”
《Is that it? also?》
“……Also, I heard it has the same meaning as prince..”
I scratched my chin..
“If you are in control of your own destiny, you are a player. If you are unable to do so and follow the intentions of others, you are a piece... … Our Emperor uses it like this..”
In chess terms.
Player and Piece. Those who set their fate and those who follow it. There were some who approached this concept.
《The meaning of what I call ‘player’ is a little different..》
The Night Bringer squinted into its golden eyes.,
《you are a player.》
So, declared.
《This is just a prepared stage..》
“……?”
《The world is like this, actors like you talking on a trivial stage... … It's just a collection of such vain stories.》
I was dumbfounded and stuttered and asked back..
“What nonsense??”
《You've probably heard of the term 'destruction play'..》
I suddenly remembered.
It was a name I learned when I trapped Baekya in a fantasy and interrogated her..
Eye candy floating in the sky... … A game enjoyed by foreign media looking into this world and watching its destruction.
《From ancient times, even before I was born, this world was just someone's toy..》
The Night Bringer's bored voice began to be mixed with vivid enthusiasm..
《The lives of everyone in this world are actually just a collection of delicious tragedies presented to foreign media..》
“…….”
《You may believe that you are in control of your own life, but that is not the case at all. player. Everything is just a futile struggle against a set script.》
The Nightbringer's fiery golden eyes stared straight at me..
《Are you truly the master of your destiny??》
“I am…….”
《You would think so. but that is an illusion.》
The black dragon declared.
《We are just marionettes dancing on a thread. In the end, he is just a clown who plays pranks for the amusement of higher beings..》
The black dragon who said that was staring at me, and I asked in shock..
“Aren't you, who talks so proudly, a member of this world too? Then you are not an actor either.?”
《……right. I, too, am just one player. Just an actor in this tragedy.》
Night Bringer closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them with a flash..
《That's why I'm trying to rebel against this tragedy.》
“……!”
《If our life and death are nothing more than a playground for bastards... … I would rather ruin the game itself with my own hands..》
The black dragon slowly looked up at the sky..
《I was born a puppet, so I should live as a puppet? don't be funny.》
As if there was something there that I couldn't see. Spitting out the seething hatred.
《I will end this story called the world with my own hands..》
“…….”
《You can't relate. You won't understand. This feeling that everything in your life, from your birth to your death, is someone else's ridicule.…….》
The Night Bringer looked at me, and a strange look appeared in his eyes..
《……Whoa. Isn’t that too? You too have begun to possess divinity..》
It seems like he noticed the golden light of the transcendent in my eyes..
《If you had just a little more time, you would have been able to view this tragic world from the same perspective as me.…….》
Nightbringer slowly got up from his seat..
《Unfortunately, your reprieve is over. The meeting ends here..》
“……!”
At the same time as the Nightbringer declared the end of the meeting,,
Shut up!
The intangible darkness grabbed my collar..
I was lifted straight into the air and pulled towards the Night Bringer. Pfft?!
sreung-!
The Night Bringer held the scepter with both hands and gently pulled out the head of the scepter..
Then, like a cane sword, a blade hidden in the staff part of the scepter was revealed..
The Night Bringer lightly grabbed my head, caught by the intangible darkness, with his left hand and threw out the scepter sword in his right hand.-
Puuk……!
I put it in the center of my chest..
“……!”
My vision flashes white..
The cold metal penetrated into my body, sending out hot pain. I gritted my teeth and tried my best to endure the pain..
《ruler.》
The Night Bringer spoke kindly while making eye contact right in front of me..
《cry.》
“Big, black……!”
《Come on, cry… … Beg for life. Isn't that your human nature?.》
The Nightbringer slowly twisted the sword stuck in my chest to the side..
《Not seeing the greater cause, too easily giving in to becoming the entertainment of higher beings..》
“Ah, ugh……!”
《Any great human being will eventually beg for his life. That is the fixed limit of mortals..》
Blood was pouring down my chest and back, front and back, along with terrible pain. Instead of breathing, I spit out fresh blood from my nose and mouth..
The sight before my eyes turned pitch black..
