Chapter 829: The Last (62)

He was probably pondering about a lot of things. One was that he probably thought he shouldn’t believe it, that it was just bullsh*t. While trying to come back to his reason, he would most likely be wondering about the exact contract and terms.

I thought he could dismiss it as mere bullsh*t, but he wouldn’t.

‘There is nothing he can gain.’

The significance of the existence that brought him to where he was today was shattered overnight. This kind of human was always like this.

People who were rational and self-confident didn’t move if there was no profit and often acted based on numbers rather than emotions.

The kind who could give up their personal feelings for what they could get.

They were rational enough to say it became their instinct. Even if they tried not to think about it, they constantly calculated everything, reminding themselves of what they could get.

I couldn’t help but think about what I could take in place of his useless revenge.

“H-Hyung-nim. What did that demon summoner say earlier?”

I spoke to Park Deokgu, who was worried about my reaction.

“Do not worry about it.”

After saying that, I flickered my hair off my face.

‘Or are you thinking about the third round?’

Was it shocking that this was the second round? Or was he shocked that there was a way to turn back time?

I felt like I might have given too many hints, but what about it? He didn’t have a choice either way. The fact that he didn’t say anything right now was like telling me that he needed time to organize his thoughts.

It was not yet possible to accurately calculate which side benefitted more. I didn’t think that would be a bad score for being successful in blurring the essence.

‘Because that was the first purpose.‘

I was indeed clouding the issue smoothly.

[The main unit of the demon faction advances with shouts.]

[Humanity’s spirit burns brightly on the battlefield. They said that we must not forget the sacrifice of Cho Hyejin. They claim that if we become one, we can drive out our enemies.]

[The Black Swan Rangers want to investigate the problems the demon faction is experiencing. Power analysts say the demonic forces will not back down and sends you a report saying we need to prepare for the final battle.]

[Named entity Kim Hyunsung of the human faction offers a prayer.]

[The named entity Ito Souta from the demon faction advances with an army.]

[The Defense War begins. Black wizards from the demon faction build towers of corpses and move to the walls. Allied wizards cast their spells. Large and small battles take place in all regions.]

‘This is all so tiresome.’

It was definitely annoying.

It wasn’t as easy to deal with as everything happened simultaneously. They threw in their troops in moderation and eventually took what they wanted, but in battles big and small, it felt like the structure was continuously accumulating where he gained, and I lost.

Perhaps Jin Qing knew he didn’t have much time left, but he held on to the same attitude he had before.

It might be because I could continue to provide magic power sources, but the thought that I might have a little more leeway than I thought came into my mind.

In the meantime, Jung Hayan was gradually getting closer to me, and she continued to hold my body tightly as if she would never let me go.

It was a fun time, but honestly, I couldn’t concentrate on the conversation.

“I-I’m going to become a magic god and climb up.”

“I watched it all, Hayan.”

“S-S-Sora will become a magic angel…”

“Really?”

‘I don’t know what exactly she’s aiming for.’

I couldn’t say anything first, and I couldn’t rush first either. After all, the moment I spoke again was like discovering that I wanted him to do business with me.

It was better to make him think I gave him a chance.

No, that’s actually true. Whatever it was, it was undeniable that I gave him a chance.

“This is so like you.”

—You too. You, with no philosophy, continue the same.

“Is that really needed for this kind of war game?”

—It doesn’t matter. After all, what everyone needs is a result. But I respect them. It feels like I’m having a conversation, I mean. That’s basically what this kind of thing is. This kind of war is a process of making us understand each other.

“I didn’t know you liked to talk.”

—I felt it last time, but it doesn’t feel like I’m having a conversation with you. What should I say to you, who has no subjectivity and moves only in response to gains and profits? No, if I think about it, it might feel different. It’s rather simple. I don’t need to understand, and I don’t need to make you understand. All that remains is the result.

[Ito Souta of the demon faction and Cha Hee-ra of the human faction have met. Light came out of Cha Hee-ra. Ito Souta got scared, but he knows he has to fight.]

“What nonsense.”

[According to the player’s command, the human faction changes formation. The demon faction also changes its tactics to match the footsteps of the human faction. The battle continues. Citizens and priests of the human faction say that this battle will remain in the history of this continent. It is a great and noble war that will never happen again, and everyone murmurs that today’s battle will be remembered.]

-The third round is…

“I guess you are curious.”

[Human faction’s tactical commanders are amazed by the unbelievable battle that’s currently going on. They say that from today onwards, the continent’s tactical manual would change. They say it is sure to mark a page in warring history.]

“It’s strange that you didn’t think of it as a bluff.”

—I’m just curious. So… you must have experienced this situation one more time. You mentioned the third round to imprint on me that you can do it again?

[The soldiers of the human faction raise their flag. The holy power of the priests and the magic of wizards are constantly scattered across the continent. Reinforcements arrived for both sides. Another great battle ensues.]

[Named entity Sunset Swordsman Kim Hyunsung said he could move again. He prays that he is ready to go out.]

“You can think whatever you want to think.”

[The player wants to use the Sunset Swordsman, who agrees to the command. The demon faction’s troops collapse against the great sunset light. Named entity Kim Hyunsung nods.]

“It’s a little too much for you to understand. It’s ridiculous to even tell you.”

—I only know this one thing. As you said, it may not matter how things go, but I can tell you want me to cooperate. The choice is not yours.

[The demon faction dispatches Jung Jinho, making him join the battlefield. A scream is heard, and damage to allies accumulates.]

“The choice is mine, not yours. You’re funny.”

[The human faction is building a base. They say we can catch them if the player doesn’t get shaken. Raise the spear high and move forward. Priests sing praises to the player. The hymn of victory resounds, and allies gain strength.]

“I just don’t want things to be cumbersome and complicated. It’s annoying when things don’t go the way we thought they would.”

—…

I could see him glancing at the battlefield.

He was probably reorganizing his thoughts once again, watching the constantly flowing board.

It wasn’t easy to say who had the advantage in the continent where war was continuing.

Some areas were engulfed by savage battles, while others were neatly organized.

We analyzed each other’s named entities, allocated a battlefield that could draw out maximum efficiency, and came up with strategies or means to counter one another.

Organic wasn’t enough to describe the battlefield, which was constantly interlocked.

It was an exaggeration to say that it felt like it was alive, but it was difficult to grasp the ever-changing battlefield at a glance.

They used ridiculous methods. Jin Qing was sneering, but it was funny that he couldn’t help but react in the end. He was most likely thinking it’s bluffing in his head, but…

‘His body language is honest.’

He had no choice but to react to those lousy and incomprehensible methods.

Why?

He learned something from the lessons of the past. He had to think about the possibility that I wasn’t bluffing.

[The human faction and the demon faction clash with swords and spears. Commanders think the god of war is watching over them. They said that incomprehensible battles and commands lead directly to the best outcome. Tactics analysts no longer publish reports. They say the war has gone beyond what they can understand. They say they will only obey the player’s orders.]

[The named entity Celia’s Wind Ito Souta is fatally wounded and runs away.]

[Named entity Cha Hee-ra falls into a trap while chasing Ito Souta. The support unit that was getting ready joins her.]

[Park Yeonjoo, the named entity of the human faction, dies. The continent will remember her.]

[The named entity of the demon faction, Mikhail, dies. The demon faction mourns his death.]

I kept moving my eyes and hands for the ever-changing battlefield. Even the Demon Summoner kept his mouth shut and concentrated on the game.

Jung Hayan, who was braiding Cho Hyejin’s hair, quietly continued to observe the board.

As I adjusted my posture, I could feel Han Sora quietly pulling Jung Hayan. As if she was aware that I was in a situation where I had to concentrate, Jung Hayan moved a little further away.

Even while I took a sip of coffee, I stared intently at the board. He was no different.

[The human faction abandons the wall and retreats.]

[The demon faction doesn’t chase them. They appear to go straight to the Fifth Front.]

[The Fifth Front is out of balance. The human faction shouts a cry of victory.]

‘My gain. Your loss.’

[The human faction wins a great victory.]

‘Was this bastard caught off guard?’

[The human faction once again gains a great victory. The demon faction of the First Front has been annihilated.]

‘Idiot. Idiot bastard!’

[The demon faction captures Park Deokgu, the Shield of Faith of the human faction.]

—…

“What.”

—I…

“What are you going to do?”

—I didn’t say anything.

“What, you fucking bastard.”

—I said I didn’t say anything.

“So what are you going to do? You fucking bastard!!!”

—…

“Kill me.”

—…

“This bastard. I’m telling you to kill me.”

—…

“Let’s see how it goes. Kill me. Let’s see if this time again…”

Huh…

“I will…”
