281. Mission Type Conquest (7)
“Ah, uh, ah…”
Ikar’s mouth fell open.
An incomprehensible moan escaped his lips.
An entity close to a non-human object.
There was no reason or emotion to be found in the girl in front of him.
“After Ikar’s lifespan ends, the harvesters will come in earnest. This world will collapse in an instant. Fields? Missions? There’s no point in fighting like that. Even if you turn the world back thousands or hundreds of millions of times, the result will be the same. It doesn’t change. Do you understand, Fria?”
The prince looked at Freea.
The golden eyes were deeply sunken.
“We all die.”
“…”
“Even if you gather forces in Taonier, collect all kinds of mysterious treasures, and perform miracles over and over again, you can’t win. The outcome of this game was fixed from the start.”
Freea’s gaze wavered.
Only the sound of the wind escaped her parted lips.
“It would be better if I could end it by dying. Tell is crazy. She will try to keep Mobius with all her heart and soul until the moment when everything disappears. What does that mean?”
Anger flashed in the prince’s eyes.
“Even if we die, it doesn’t end. We must die and die, rolling like a treadmill in a world that is constantly reviving. Just like I once did.”
“That can’t be…”
“So are you, Han. You who should have been on Earth, why do you think you came here?”
Prios looked back at me.
I closed my eyes. It reminded me of the 2-star promotion ceremony.
Tell speaks in a relaxed voice while wearing a suit.
‘The purpose of the game was to save the world.’
It wasn’t a lie.
But that was not feasible.
Because the universe had collapsed from the beginning.
“From Rantia and Stenberg, I was able to hear the full story of the ‘7 Star Plan’.”
“The 7-star plan?”
“I heard there were 4 transcendental heroes in this game.”
Praios murmured.
“By combining a Master, a being of a higher dimension, with a Hero, a being of a lower dimension, an extremely superior individual is created.”
A combination of master and hero.
That was the key to the 7-star promotion.
Prios did not open his mouth any longer. He was just looking at me with a soft smile.
‘Did he give you a hint?’
I crossed my arms.
I decided to think about it again from the beginning.
About the reason why I, who was playing a game on Earth, fell into the game.
‘To clear the tower?’
dog sound.
If left alone, Niflheim would have been able to break the 90th floor.
My attack party was safely cruising to the 87th floor.
Well, it was an unfinished game that was impossible to clear in the first place.
‘It’s a combination of a master and a hero.’
In the synthesis process, the hero can have power beyond the limit.
In other words, become another god and gain the ability to transcend laws.
The four 7 stars were created like that.
‘But this is crazy from the operator’s point of view.’
El Cid gave the right example.
Ranked #1, Elcid rampaged all over the server, blowing up countless accounts and destroying the walls of the server.
In the end, Moebius had to get rid of him even by holding an emergency event.
‘Synthesizing 7 is like creating an uncontrollable nuisance.’
Moreover, if the news that some of the users who played the game became vegetative was leaked to the global media, Pick Me Up would not be able to escape its downfall. This was also a significant risk. However, if it was necessary to take such a risk and directly bring in the power of the outer dimension…
“…Ah.”
I looked to the side.
Ikar was looking at me with clear eyes.
“Right.”
Only then did I know
The prince’s smile deepened.
“Is it server replacement?”
If your server computer has reached the end of its lifespan, you should replace it with a better server.
If so, I…
“I’ll be one of the candidates.”
There were still a few unanswered questions, but
I was able to infer the purpose of Tell to some extent.
He tried to create 7 stars by synthesizing me and Siris.
‘To power the next server.’
I chuckled.
“I think everyone else has failed except me.”
“It is.”
Even El Cid said that the ‘bowl’ broke while climbing the 90th floor.
If he had been perfect as a 7-star, he would have pierced the World Raid or something head-on.
You wouldn’t have to leave me behind.
A sigh came out.
Of course, we cannot guarantee that this is 100% correct.
But my intuition was telling me it was true.
If my guess is right, I could understand why Siris was so mad at me.
If I became a 7 star and was taken to the 1 server without knowing anything…
“Uh, ah, ah.”
living bio-battery.
He must have burned his own life to keep this crazy world going for a while longer.
“understood.”
After being dragged into this place, he eats ‘sacrifices’ called monsters and gradually grows and becomes perfect as a 7-star.
And with the determination to save the world, I went to Server 1…
“I don’t want the proud directors to sacrifice themselves, and I need to keep the game going. Is that why I made a substitute for God?”
I grinned.
“They’re complete assholes.”
Passage on passivation on passivation.
Alpha Zero and Sigel did not disclose these conditions.
I just repeated the word that I was given a choice.
‘Is this an option?’
Laughter came out.
They left out information that was unfavorable to them and deceived them as if it was a fair contract.
thud!
The ground shook violently.
Looking back, I saw a circular flame burning in the distance.
Brilliant light leaked from the flames.
“Han Israt,”
a familiar voice rang out.
An intelligent woman’s voice.
It was Sizel, Alpha Zero’s lieutenant.
“Don’t be fooled by the author’s words.”
“…”
“You have a choice. If you want to return to Earth, we will do our best to help you.”
“Help?”
I muttered.
“How do you help? The moment you break the 90th floor, will you be able to go back right away?”
“Work requires order.”
“What is that order?”
「That’s not yet…」
“That means they can’t tell.”
I’m going crazy.
“You… have a choice…”
“If you’re going to let me make a choice, I’ll have to tell you everything properly. Do you know what people on Earth say about a guy who talks like that without saying anything?”
「…」
“It’s called a scammer.”
In fact, I did believe a little.
Say you want to end this game.
Because they seemed different from Tell.
‘I guess I was in the middle of it after all.’
Victim once fooled.
If you are fooled twice, you become a Hogu.
If you’ve been tricked three times…
I sighed.
“The story is next. Let’s deal with the impure molecules first.”
Bang!
A figure jumped out of the flame door.
That moment.
“Your business here is over.”
The prince drew his sword sideways.
A flash of golden light emanating from the blade colored the surroundings.
The dimensional sword was activated once again.
[Unrecognized dimension.]
[Urgent maintenance required! Please call the person in charge.]
Unique feeling of floating.
It was the feeling of jumping between dimensions.
After the light completely disappeared, I slowly lifted my eyelids.
shoot it
The sound of grass shaking in the wind.
I looked ahead and there were endless fields of wheat.
“Finally… I was able to come.”
The prince opened his mouth.
Freea looked around the wheat field with blank eyes.
“This is…”
“Where do you think it is?”
Prios laughed softly.
“It’s a span of land.”
“A span of land?”
The prince turned his back.
After that, I started walking along the path through the wheat fields.
“…one.”
Freea met my eyes.
I nodded.
Freea hardened her expression as if she had made up her mind and followed him.
‘The real purpose of Praios.’
I followed the two with my arms crossed.
It wasn’t long before I saw a wooden house built next to a wheat field.
It was a place like a painting.
Wheat fields and small houses sway under the orange sun.
I leaned against a beautiful tree, far away from the two of them.
“Here… I have the interference power I’ve gathered all along.”
“…”
“Since the barrier is spread, it will last for at least a hundred years.”
The prince ran his hand over the wooden beams of the house.
And I looked back at Freea.
“You don’t have to fight anymore. Taoni, the empire, the people, the monsters, the fragments. You don’t have to worry about anything. Everything I want is contained here.”
what would it be
In a ruined world anyway, there was no point in fighting.
clap.
Prios put down his sword.
“I realized it too late. I thought I was fighting for a cause, for the people of Taonier and for an honorable empire. I’ve spent seventeen lives under such a foolish delusion.”
“…”
“I played the perfect prince no matter who sees it.”
Those eyes were stained with remorse.
“I was wrong, Fria. It’s okay to perish like Taoni. It doesn’t matter. What I wanted to protect… was one from the beginning.”
“That’s…”
“Priasis all Ragnar.”
The prince met Freea’s eyes.
“Live normally here, die normally.”
“majesty.”
“It hurts my heart just to hear the words of highness.”
Freea closed her eyes.
“The reason you showed me the vigilance was to convince me.”
“I wanted to let you know. This world is not a place worth dying to protect.”
“What the hell are you doing here…?”
“Anything is fine. Anything you want.”
“What I wish is not here.”
“Fria. Didn’t you look carefully?”
“I didn’t see anything.”
Freea opened her eyes.
“Please send me back. There are people waiting for me.”
“They are illusions.”
“It’s not an illusion.”
“It’s just a tool of the goddess.”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Prios frowned.
“The situation is rigged. You are being taken advantage of.”
“I am determined.”
“It’s not a matter of determination, Freesis!”
The prince grabbed Freea’s shoulder.
“Taonier can’t be saved. You will die. That mercenary king, your army, and even the people. All of them will be eaten and disappear. Can you say that without knowing?”
“Brother.”
Freea sighed.
Then she looked up at Prios
. But… this is not running away.”
“It is not running away.”
“If destruction cannot be avoided…”
Prios said in a low voice.
“I will fight and die proudly.
” ….”
“I don’t want to see you like this. Wasn’t my older brother my hero who never gave up under any circumstances? Didn’t you always show me the way to go in front of me? But, abandoning everyone and running away.”
“Don’t you understand! Even if you die fighting…”
“If you come back to life, I will fight again.”
“…Pria.”
The prince’s voice trembled. ”
Please send me back to the battlefield.
”
Didn’t my older brother teach me to be confident?”
Freea took a step back.
“The fight isn’t over yet. If I don’t return, invaders will overrun Taonier. There is no time to be doing this. Please let me go now.”
“….”
“If you want to stop it, kill me.”
Freea turned her back
and walked towards me.
“Han, can you tell me where the exit is?”
“Well.”
I looked around,
I had been looking since I first arrived, but
I couldn’t find an exit. Wait a moment.”
Pria went into the wheat field.
I leaned against the tree and followed her back with my eyes.
Before long, her figure disappeared
completely .
I opened my mouth,
”
If there’s no other way, why don’t you tie it up? Can’t you at least prevent escape?”
“It’s pointless.”
“Why is it pointless? I don’t listen…”
Cool.
At that moment, the prince stumbled and spilled a handful of blood.
The blood that fell on the ground had a black
color .
