[Forced reset if the story damage rate is over 95%]
[With story damage rate less than 95%, ‘Character No. 6666’ Destroy Destiny]
Destiny Dig.
My eyes kept going to this ambiguous word.
It had to be.
Because the name ‘destiny’ was the main culprit that bothered me, who wanted to live as an ordinary petit bourgeois in this world.
… … It is my fate that I will eventually lose my precious people.
If I, in such a situation, witness the hope that I can destroy fate, the reaction I will show is predetermined.
‘Unconditionally.’
There are no other options.
That character no. I don’t know who exactly 6666 refers to, but it just erases its existence from this world.
I had only one thing to do.
But this time, too, a condition was attached.
‘The story damage rate is less than 95%’.
This is a prerequisite.
Presumably, that means I’m free to wield the story, but I really shouldn’t destroy the last remaining stem.
Isn’t it a story that you have to follow the big flow of the remaining acts 5 and 6 even if you are not sure about anything?
My only guess right now is this.
And that is the most plausible reasoning.
When I stopped following the flow of the story and started acting on my own, the system reported an error and the story was corrupted.
It was a reasonable enough idea.
Another character No. We need to figure out 6666.
The most suitable character is, of course, the demon king Thanatos.
The number 6666 symbolizes the devil, and since the final story of ＜Warriors Kingdom＞ ends with Thanatos being killed, it’s strange that it’s not Thanatos.
‘Could it be another character?’
The odds seemed slim, but I couldn’t let my guard down.
Because character number 6666 could be the Pope, Argon, or someone completely unexpected.
But now, at the beginning of Act 5, Argon is in my hands. If you set your mind to killing the pope, it will be possible somehow.
This makes it too easy. If that happens, it’s not strange to see the story ending right now.
It’s an annoying story, but I wouldn’t have set it up so easily to get out of the yoke of fate.
final final. It really only comes out at the end, and Thanatos, who is a hard opponent for me to defeat right now, is the most suitable number 6666.
In other words, this is the summary of that message sent to me as a system error.
Act 5 is the resurrection of the demon king.
Act 6 is the subjugation of the demon king.
This big frame must be maintained, and you can go wild without fail.
Of course, that is under the premise that my thoughts are correct.
―I am the possessor. Why do you drink while talking?
‘ah. I was thinking for a second.’
It was still class time. While explaining what happened to Acheron, an error window popped up and I fell into other thoughts for a while.
Gilliot was giving a theory class to create sword steel by strengthening sword skills.
The choice of employment for the 3rd year of the combat system depends on whether or not they can make a bad swordsman course before graduation.
-Finish what you were talking about.
‘yes.’
How should I explain this?
In fact, how would you react if I told you that Ackerman wasn’t a warrior?
It’s ridiculous even if I think about it. It’s not like I gave you food or took it away.
Well, it doesn’t change the fact that Ackerman is the hero who will save this world. I still believe in Ackerman.
In the first place, it was decided by fate to kill the demon king, but it was not stated that I would kill ‘directly’ with my own hands.
Whether I defeated Ackerman by manipulating it or with the help of Siana, the ‘method’ itself was not fixed.
Even now, my plan is to stage the situation so that Ackerman can kill the demon king.
There is no change in this thought.
Because I’m always a ‘big demon’.
My subordinates still want to resurrect the demon lord, and they smile at the thought of ruling humans.
After that, they are remodeling their ideology to adopt a more docile policy, but the fact that they are demons in their essence has not changed yet.
So killing Thanatos with my own hands shouldn’t happen.
If I did, even Bartolomeu, Kraktsar, and Devlani would betray me.
I must refrain from directly smearing blood on my hands.
A human hero must kill the demon king, and then dream of cooperating with the demons and humans.
It is a final plan that requires very delicate control.
‘Acheron.’
– I’m listening.
‘The plan has changed.’
-Well. is it? don’t listen
Ackerman is intently concentrating on Gilead’s demonstration. Only me and the sealing sword communicated telepathically.
Originally, Ackerman should have been busy throughout the first semester of the third year and gathered three gods.
But Bell has already decided to find one, and I’m going to go find the armor in the castle too.
In the end, Ackerman had more time than was planned.
Somehow, I ended up taking his place again. My desire to rest comfortably is like a chimney, but it seems that the fact that I can’t rest is also a f*cking fate.
I… … I can’t rest until I kill the Demon King.
Still, I didn’t want to see Ackerman resting comfortably. That’s not even possible.
‘I’ll take care of two of the three gods. You take Ackerman to the Western Isles and get Rachel’s phoenix egg.’
-Well. suddenly?
Did I know that suddenly things would turn out like this?
A change of plan is inevitable.
‘yes. suddenly.’
I nodded with a confident face, and Acheron readily agreed.
The sealing sword has now become a good guy who thoroughly believes in my words.
So, I briefly explained to him the circumstances in which I had no choice but to change the route suddenly.
Especially the fact that that damned destiny is haunting me.
-Oh yeah… … Trouble.
The concept of ‘system’ was roughly explained to me as a transcendent in an external dimension, so I understood it easily.
‘So I can’t help it. I can’t lose my friends.’
-right. I don’t want to see that pretty kid get hurt either.
Coincidentally, Cain stepped up to fight Gilliot this time.
Unlike the other cadets who were falling out one after another, Cain did not get pushed back easily even against Gilliot.
The knight from Abella had become a powerful figure that the entire kingdom could pay attention to.
“Wow!”
Cain pushed Gilliott with a sharp and neat movement. Gilliot enjoyed the sparring with Cain with a satisfied face.
‘Let’s train Ackerman not to be pushed by Cain.’
Looking at the current stats of Ackerman and Cain, they were close.
Although Cain’s skills are rising more steeply than in the game, Ackerman must never be outdone by her.
I emphasized this point to Acheron.
-i get it.
He added that it must be Ackerman who kills Thanatos at the last moment.

“You haven’t found it yet!”
A solemn voice echoed through the audience room.
“I apologize. majesty.”
As King William Braveheart’s voice rose, the servants gathered in the throne room became very tense.
Nothing else, the prince of the kingdom has gone missing.
But since they haven’t been able to find it for months, they can’t even come up with a guess as to where it went.
He didn’t know why the prince went mad, and he couldn’t prevent the 3 princes from disappearing from the castle.
All those who were in charge of the royal guard that day ended up in prison.
Two months have passed since then.
If that much time had passed, it would be more credible if the prince had died on the street somewhere or had been digested in the stomach of a monster rather than alive.
thud-!
“Are you saying that the royal guards, the magic association, and all the mercenaries that are said to be the best are idiots!? Why can’t we find someone who hasn’t even taken basic stealth lessons!”
William yelled, slamming the armrest of the throne hard. The throne made of marble was shattered into powder.
“I have no face.”
It was the strength of the lineage of the hero who defeated the dragon and established the kingdom of Aeonia.
Naturally, there was a sense of intimidation that came from that power, and all of the subjects here feared that power.
It was the power of that lineage that backed the powerful kingship.
Unfortunately, however, the third prince, Aiden, did not properly inherit the power of that amazing lineage.
He was brave, but neither brave nor strong.
Naturally, I had no choice but to develop an inferiority complex, and from the day I recognized it, I started acting outrageously.
Although he was a fool, he was just a precious child to the king.
The anger of not being able to find the child had to be endured entirely by the servants.
“At that time, call the captain of the guard. I will have to reprimand him myself.”
Thick veins formed on the king’s temples. Indeed, his patience was at its limit.
Being the king, keeping face and watching was over.
The ‘accusation’ he was talking about was not simply word of mouth. I was really thinking of using force.
The escort knight’s longsword flickered in William’s eyes.
No one thought to stop his anger.
Even the head of the Magic Association and the head of the Court Magic, who were usually the only ones who gave generous advice to the king, couldn’t open their mouths at this moment.
The disappearance of the three princes was such a serious problem.
No matter how much he was usually trusted by the king, he had to be careful at this moment.
“majesty!”
Then the door to the audience room opened, and a soldier rushed in at full speed.
thud!
The soldier knelt before the king, not caring that his knee was broken. He gasped urgently.
“What.”
William, feeling extremely uncomfortable, asked as he clenched his fists.
“His Highness the Three Princes has returned!!!”
“what?”
When the 3 princes, who ran away madly, returned to the palace, they looked quite different from before.
* * *
“welcome.”
“Three cookie sets with the outside and the inside.”
“all right. 3 additional sets of outer and inner touches.”
“Yes Yes!!”
Sister Lorena’s cookie and liquor shop was crowded with customers.
“Here I am. Next guest!”
It was truly an invitation.
The new commercial complex was getting bigger and bigger with each passing day.
Like Warriors Pizza, there were some stores that increased the size of the building when building a new one, and it was also thanks to the increase in the number of stores that could be entered by increasing the number of floors in the building.
People naturally flocked to the area, and Sister Lorena’s store, along with Pizza’s house, became the most beloved attraction.
“This is won.”
I heard it with the intention of congratulating the store on doing well, but it looks too busy even though it’s busy.
Lorena didn’t even have the time to ask me a simple hello, ending with just one glance at me.
“Isn’t it really okay? This is not the original purpose.”
Viktor, who came to help with the work at Sister Lorena’s request, came to my table without her knowledge, drank a glass of wine, threw a word at a time, and disappeared.
“Victor! what are you doing! Don’t be lazy, pack it up quickly!!!”
“Ah, I see!”
Priest cadets would not understand why a newly appointed teaching assistant would work part-time in a place like this.
It’s absurd even to me, but how would it look from the point of view of a student learning from him?
Viktor remains Viktor even after becoming an assistant professor.
“Hi-Hi. Can I really do business like this? Is not it?”
Shiana, who looked at the scene as if she was having fun, whispered.
“I know.”
I chimed in and chewed on the cookie. This crazy popularity is a taste that is accepted by itself.
“Eat this too. tasty.”
Just as I was about to finish eating my cookies, Cain suddenly popped a new cheese cream cookie into my mouth.
I chewed on the cookie Cain gave me before I had time to remove it.
“Cain!”
“why?”
“Cow, did you wash your hands?!”
“yes.”
“Really!?”
… … Thanks to this, Season 27619 Siana & Cain Battle took place.
Every time this happens, I feel like I’m getting all over the place. after.
It’s already been three weeks since I discovered a system error and worked around.
Since the midterm exams have just been completed, today is the day for the ‘Crusaders’ regular meeting.
The regular meeting was made with the purpose of gathering some of the members once every two weeks to point out a suspicious person or share observation diaries.
“Ah!!! I told you not to! This is against the rules!”
“What is the rule? He’s true! What are you talking about? It’s embarrassing!”
“… … .”
Just when I thought I had picked the wrong place because there were so many customers, the head of the meeting sneaked up from the crowd and sat down at the table.
“You all have come beforehand.”
Today, it was Belle with blonde hair that looked like Cain.
The members gathered today are me, Ackerman, Cain and Shiana. It was the last bell.
Lorena and Viktor here were also Crusader members, but they are absent today.
“Stop fighting, boys.”
Even when Bell sat down, Sianna and Cain continued to argue. The two glared at each other and fired lasers from their eyes.
Only Ackerman, who was worse off, stopped the two of them in a sweat, but his words didn’t work.
devil.
“Hmmmm. Could you please pay attention?”
Belle intervened between Cyana and Cain, covering it with her palm.
Being the leader, Bell was improving her coordination skills in the middle as the days went by.
What you do to the youngest subject is the most mature.
Of course, that is only when other people are present. When the two of us are together, Bell is the most tired.
Only then did Shiana and Cain stop and turn their heads toward Bell.
In line with Bell’s wink, Ciana applied sound-blocking magic. Only then did Bell get to the point.
“Thank you. Senior Siana? Mum. Originally, each of us should take turns giving regular reports, but today I have something to tell you first.”
Bell’s expression looked quite serious.
Ackerman engrossed himself and pulled the chair forward.
“What, what!”
Bell pulled back his upper body as if Ackerman was burdened.
“Well. I heard the news beforehand, but soon some of the students will be invited to the royal castle for a grand hero celebration.”
“As a king?”
Bell nodded at Ackerman’s question and went on to speak.
“Then let’s try to get invited too. And I will go to the royal castle and find the Three Gods.”
After I looked after him, Aiden quickly began to take on his true face as a prince.
The effect appeared quickly, and I prepared a way for the cadets to go to the capital as I had planned.
… … And Bell memorized the script I gave him very well.
