199. Secret Order (2)
Tingle-! Tingle-!
Sparks flew wildly.
strength and power.
mana and mana.
live and live.
All kinds of bloody things collide.
In front of my dormitory door, there was nothing different from the nuclear reactor right before the explosion.
It is a fight of spirit reminiscent of a nuclear war.
The eyes of the two women were so fierce that I froze on the spot.
It seemed like they were getting along well, but it must have been my mistake.
As soon as Cain and Cyana met, they started growling like tigers fighting for territory.
“why. Cain. Are you coming out of Aren’s room?”
“Why should I tell you that?”
After Siana lifted the bundle of sweets she was carrying with her telekinesis magic, she raised her hands on her hips and glared at Cain.
Cain crossed his arms and crossed his legs as he responded.
It was an offense and defense without concessions to each other.
The cadets passing by the hallway of the dormitory gathered in a buzz.
They started to make a fuss about whether there was a fight or not.
‘damn. It shouldn’t be like this.’
I had a disease that would kill me for attention. I think this situation is too burdensome.
It’s nothing else, um, when two girls fight in front of the boys’ dorm room, it’s a fight of love.
Strange rumors are never a specification. If you leave it like this, it will really get out of hand.
“Guys. don’t fight… … ”
“Aren, be quiet.”
Before I could finish my words, Ciana screamed furiously.
“Yep… … .”
I closed my mouth like a zipper. I don’t even know anymore Be real.
I moved my seat at an angle that I couldn’t see from the outside and watched the fight with my eardrum.
Fortunately, the fight didn’t last as long as I thought.
“Okay. Are you done with your business?”
Siana’s trump card flew away.
“Oh, isn’t it?”
Cain hurriedly twisted his upper body to escape, but the dagger’s trajectory threw him into a place where it was impossible to avoid.
“I heard you were on your way out after finishing your business.”
I couldn’t see it, but Siana’s expression must have been very nice to see.
“Now, wait—!”
thud!
After that, Cain’s voice was no longer heard.
It seems that Cyana pushed Cain away and forced the door shut.
Could this fight be Shiana’s victory by decision?
What… … .
What would be the importance of that?
It looks like I’m going to die right now.
“I’m here?”
“Aren. sit down.”
A shadow fell over Sianna’s cold face.
.
.
.
.
.
“Y-yes!?”
Has it been about 15 minutes since then?
After my desperate explanation, Sianna’s expression returned to a cute, kind, and sweet state.
Yes, Shiana likes it the most when she smiles like she is doing right now.
“Did Aren really join the secret society!?”
Why was I able to convince her?
Because I was proud!
There was nothing to hide.
I told her candidly about what had happened before Cianna came to my room.
When it comes to secret societies, originally, it is best that even the members do not know each other’s existence.
However, after overpowering and holding Siana, I couldn’t come up with a strong enough presence to say, ‘Where is the member’s hideout!?’ or ‘Blow the list!’
If that happens, you’ll have to be prepared to turn into a lightning bolt.
Therefore, I was able to clear my name by telling the story that I joined the secret society ‘Crusaders’.
Cain and the saintess candidate asked if they had to come to my room, and they blew fire out of their mouths, but as a result, it seemed that Shiana’s heart was completely relaxed.
Now, it has reached the level where she can control Shiana’s grumbling to some extent.
At this level, it seems that there is no need to worry about the bad ending caused by Siana until the ending.
“Well then. Aren! Shall we form a team and organize activities!?”
When I told her that I had joined a secret organization, Shiana said something nonsensical.
“team?”
“yes. The two of us are on a secret mission! Shall we ask the saintess candidate?”
Apparently, rather than having a great sense of mission as a member of a secret organization, it feels like Shiana puts more meaning in doing something ‘special’ with me.
cute.
After drying the cyana, I was able to ask questions.
“Why did you come here?”
“Um?”
Cianna is choking with cookies in her mouth and drinking grapefruit juice.
“Oh! I came because I have something to ask Aren!”
to live long and see
A genius magical girl came to see me because she didn’t know something?
I can’t stand this because I’m curious.
“What?”
The words that came out of Siana’s mouth were unexpected.
“I found a book while constructing the site where the Magical Zoo and Botanical Museum was demolished. I couldn’t read it.”
At the same time, Siana took out a book called Juseom Juseom from her bag. The book was very old and was written in an unrecognizable language.
‘This?’
But I was able to recognize the old book right away.
At the same time, my body stiffened and tension enveloped my body.
‘Why is this for me?’
Because this was the ancient elves’ magic book that announced the beginning of the Shiana sub-quest in Act 5.
According to the ＜Warrior’s Kingdom＞ worldview, the language of these ancient elves can only be interpreted by an ancient figure among the elves.
It is because it is a book left by elves who existed long before Braveheart established the kingdom of Aeonia.
It was a language that even the player could not read.
I really liked this setting.
It wasn’t the setting that really mattered, it was the terrible quest that started with the delivery of this book to the player.
‘I was told to be quiet… … .’
In the end, what was to come had to come.
This is the most dangerous turning point among the numerous bed ending routes that Cyana creates.
‘Mr. Ha.’
Cursing rose up to his throat.
It’s filthy and difficult, and the bed ending option is also a sub-quest with many trap elements, so just looking at it is PTSD.
Once this quest is done well.
Siana gets a new magic wand and contributes to the subjugation of the demon lord.
To be precise, it is the role of blowing off the right arm of the demon king and lowering the difficulty level of subjugating the demon king.
This is because in order to balance the third year cadet vs. the demon king, the ability of the demon king must be forcibly reduced with the help of the surrounding characters.
Cain and Bell play a similar role at the last moment and go down.
Anyway, if it goes well, it will be a build-up to complete the demon lord subjugation, but it’s really hard to do well.
The conditions for solving the quest are as follows.
1. Interpret the magic book and tell it to Siana.
This is excluded from selection.
No matter what method was used, no matter how much the world view map was uncovered, there was no way to read this ancient elven language.
I remember that the game company was criticized a lot for this. a lot.
2. Introduce Cyanna to the elves.
Since Ackerman had already formed a relationship with the elves, this was the most reasonable option.
However, if you choose the wrong option here or if you don’t have enough work on your affinity for Cyana. Siana falls into the mystical power of the elves and enters the wrong path of sorcery.
In this case, it is a bed ending.
Even if you’ve barely chosen your favorability and options well, it’s another bed ending if you don’t collect all the necessary ingredients within the time limit.
‘It was like a dog.’
Even thinking about it again makes me angry. It’s clear that the developers are crazy.
3. Leave it alone.
When this happens, Shiana feels betrayed and kills the main character. It’s going to black out properly.
This is such a very dirty, deadly and tricky quest.
Originally, only Ackerman had to suffer… … .
I forcibly dropped the quests because only Cyana-related quests are this sh*t.
The Ackerman of this world is not very trustworthy.
‘finally. I must handle this quest, right?’
It’s definitely something I’m responsible for.
“Aren is also well versed in black magic. Just in case you knew!”
Shiana smiled and her eyes twinkled.
In fact, it doesn’t seem so important to her that I can interpret this book or not.
I just needed a reason to come to my room to commemorate the merger of the dorms.
It’s entertainment for her, but it’s like a poison needle delivered to me.
‘I think it’s too late to make friends with the elves now… … .’
There are no options.
It is unconditionally interpreted.
“I’ll take a look.”
I was handed the old book.
I felt a strange aura through my hand.
* * *
“My… … It is Jeseonghammi. older brother.”
Shiana went back, and it wasn’t until dinner time that Jade came back.
The same guy who is the source of all the evil that happened today.
“Does it make sense to give out your password without your roommate’s permission?”
“Um, no.”
“Then why did you tell me?”
I started scolding Jade, mentioning the etiquette that should be followed between roommates.
“It’s unfortunate. How can I refuse to open the door with that benevolent and sincere face of the candidate saint?”
“Well.”
“That and. … … Do you also ask In-senpai… … .”
At this point, I couldn’t help but nod my head in amazement.
Needless to say, Cain was also there.
I forgot, this Jade guy. He’s the guy who has a crush on Cain.
There’s no way that Jade, who still liked Cain, could refuse Cain’s request.
This is what I understand.
cold sweat I said something stupid.
“Well. uh, it can be.”
Jade was very depressed.
It wasn’t usually uncomfortable because I felt like I was insulted by becoming a golden sun again unintentionally.
“To commemorate the beginning of the semester, shall we have a drink?”
“I have an appointment.”
This kid is pissed… … .
Still, I have nothing to say. I quietly let him go.
The atmosphere at the academy was not much different from before.
On the first day of school, we had a drinking party, and people like Jade enjoyed the night out.
‘Today’s alcohol must be quite bitter.’
The only thing that has changed is that there is a strict curfew starting this semester.
After 10:00 p.m., all cadets had to enter the academy dormitory, and the conditions for using overnight stays became very strict.
The number of dormitory managers increased from two to four, and the number of professors on duty increased from one to two.
The guards had nothing to say. They hired mercenaries from outside to protect the academy.
The size of the academy itself has shrunk, so protection and surveillance have become much more thorough.
Regulation is an act that goes against Vemillion’s personality, but this is due to the strong influence of the professors, the board of directors, and the students’ parents.
The academy has been in such an uproar so far, but from the school’s point of view, just because the cadets attend, overprotection is inevitable.
Thanks to that, Asa like me was able to greet the first night of the semester in a quiet manner.
Well, among my classmates in the third year, I don’t think there’s anyone who enjoys the opening party.
Because he was a jockey who had experienced all these accidents, his sense of alertness was at its peak.
Both you and I, our riders must be training each other tonight or continuing their magic research.
There was nothing different about me.
Zzz… … .
The night Jade fell asleep drunk with a gloomy face.
I was planning hard to rewrite the five-act version from scratch.
I’m used to doing this now, so I don’t regret it.
Rather, I just want to see the end to the 6th act quickly and find my life.
Argon has been pushed out of the villain role a lot, and the situation now that Pope is trying to take his place seemed precarious.
‘It wouldn’t be strange if the pope tried to wake the demon king tomorrow.’
In the original story, Argon occupies the capital and awakens the demon king who is sleeping deep underground, but if the Pope takes on that role, there may be no need to occupy the capital.
‘Should I visit the royal castle once?’
It is now uncertain whether the Demon King is definitely in the position I remember.
It is urgent to confirm the uncertainties with the naked eye and make them certain.
When Ackerman goes to the royal castle to find the Three Gods, he plans to create an opportunity to follow him or visit him separately.
‘Because Iden has one too.’
There were many ways to come to mind.
Finding Ackerman’s Three Gods.
Understanding the dynamics of the demon king and the pope.
Treat with argon.
Resolve Cyana’s sub-quest.
Again, there was a lot of dirty work to do.
As soon as the semester starts, it feels like things are going to explode.
The Three Gods are left to Ackerman for the time being, and the Devil and the Pope visit the royal castle to solve it.
I’ve left Argon with Aiden and Devlani, so I’ll be in touch soon.
‘can do!’
I’m going to solve it one by one step by step.
Tomorrow, I decided to check the growth of Ackerman after a long time.
From the first class of the first semester of the third year, we focus on training to develop a sense of ‘real world’ in earnest.
Because external missions are becoming more frequent, and dueling is more important than theory.
Then let’s take a look at the main characters including Ackerman.
After thinking about it for a while, I checked my watch, not knowing how much time had passed.
“It’s still 11 o’clock.”
It seemed like a lot of time had passed, but it wasn’t as I thought.
I feel that my thinking ability has increased greatly. Since becoming a Daema tribe, this has been a frequent occurrence.
It was already a bit early to fall asleep.
In my own way, I couldn’t sleep for the last month or so of vacation, thanks to resting and recovering my condition.
“Shall we do research on ancient books?”
I was most afraid of Siana’s quest right now. You have to spend a lot of time.
I took out the ancient magic book of the elves that I kept in my desk drawer.
When I touch it, I can definitely feel a strange energy, but I can’t quite explain this in words. They say elves have special powers, but maybe that’s the case.
Whirik.
I turned over an unrecognizable book cover.
As soon as you open the book, what you see is the same unrecognizable language.
It’s frustrating enough to wonder why the hell they made this setting.
This is something that I really can’t read even with the knowledge of the shadow dimension in my head.
Searching everything in the world, and not being able to know even with knowledge from another dimension.
What the hell were the developers thinking when they made this?
‘Sir… … .’
The moment when the curse is about to come out through the throat.
An idea passed through my mind.
“Wait a minute.”
