Jack turned away from the Transcendents and looked at the Deltans.

There was a cheerful smile on his face that only Deltans could see.

As if asking if this was the plan.

Deltan showed no other reaction.

Half of them didn’t want their collusion to be discovered, and half of them didn’t want to react individually.

“Do you have any disagreement?”

Jack said loudly.

Then, the answer came out with a shimmer from all over the place.

[Not possible. This has not been agreed upon.]

[This is also unprecedented.]

[It’s outrageous.]

[Radical.]

Words came out from all over the place, but they were all the same voice mixed with noise, so it seemed like one person was speaking.

Deltans were able to get several clues from those words.

‘I don’t think he’s smart even though he’s a transcendental person.’

No, it’s much more emotional than that.

Regardless of the level of intelligence, if you see that he is making such a fuss simply because he is unwilling, you are probably right.

Well, aren’t they all things that make a name for themselves in the world?

It must be heartbreaking to be in the position of being bullied instead of being forced to do it all the time.

It wasn’t just that.

‘I’m hung up on promises more than I thought.’

As if the promise was their lifeline.

They are afraid of change.

We are intoxicated with what we already have and hope that this state will last forever.

Deltan burst out laughing.

“What will I do if you don’t do it?”

There is silence in the hall.

“What will I do if I die trapped in this body? Do you have my spare? No, even if there is, are you sure that she will do the job as well as me? Probably not? I’ve never met anyone greater than me in my life.”

A narcissistic confidence bordering on arrogance.

One, it was true.

After all, he hadn’t even touched a video game in his entire life, but wasn’t he the one who was able to clear that heinous game in just one month?

This means that I completely conquered it by clearing all the sub-quests except [Memories of First Love].

In the process, the emotions Deltans felt were neither joy nor competitiveness, but rather pride.

It was a mad obsession with winning the bet.

A person who hangs himself on a game for a month just because of these ridiculous emotions?

It clearly exists.

But among them, no one was as good as him.

“Now, answer. Is there anyone who can replace me? No, once this demon disappears, do you know when it will come out again? It seems to me that you guys can’t control this situation properly either.”

[Pay attention to what you say… .]

“Why do I do it?”

You guys have to pay attention.

With that meaning in mind, Deltan sneered.

“Define clearly.”

I raised my hand and spread my index and middle fingers.

“Will you meet my requirements?”

I folded my index finger.

I left only my middle finger and waved it jingly.

“Let’s all search here together.”

There is silence.

Deltan read the mood.

Anxiety, distress, anger, discomfort.

They could feel that much emotion just by shaking it, so if they looked inside, there would have been an even bigger wave crashing inside them.

Deltan waited.

I was confident that no matter when, I would be the winner.

“… We will proceed with voting.”

It was right.

Be kind too.

Deltain grinned at the results delivered through the interface.

“Good.”

[Before that, a little… .]

“Okay, I’ll do the work for you. Okay?”

As he paused and answered, Deltan felt something tightening his stomach.

It was closer to a spiritual phenomenon than a physical phenomenon.

Perhaps this is the ‘promise’ they are talking about.

‘This too was a success.’

It was an act of fraud that could not even be dreamed of in a world where fraudulent contracts are rampant.

Deltan was able to understand their psychology to some extent.

They probably don’t even think that they would dare lie in front of themselves.

“Then it’s my turn.”

It didn’t matter.

It wasn’t actually a scam.

Deltain would complete the ‘contract’ they wanted at the end of this game.

“Give me your life.”

Once again, something envelopes my body.

This time it was a physical phenomenon.

It was a mysterious feeling.

There were no major changes, but my breathing became more stable and the dizziness was disappearing.

One Deltan frowned.

‘At best…’ .’

50 days.

I thought about forcing him one more time, but I soon stopped.

That’s because Jack was talking with his eyes.

No more than this.

‘There’s no harm in being careful.’

I got everything I could.

Excessive greed is poisonous, so it’s time to step back.

“Then will you let me out now?”

This damn body is like trash.

Just by standing a little and talking a little, you are already in trouble.

I had to quickly find a place to rest and replenish my stamina.

What responded to the request was the silhouette in the center, who was the first to open his mouth.

[Robrace. Fulfill.]

Jack answered those words.

“Yes.”

‘… what?’

For a moment, Deltan took a deep breath.

Jack’s name is Robrace.

It was definitely a name that Deltans knew.

“Then let’s go.”

I couldn’t focus on the message or even on the shadow rising beneath my feet.

“… Robrace de Crobenia.”

That name, which I couldn’t have known, was the name of the first Archmage to appear in this world.

The gate swallowed Deltan.

*

This was just before entering the courtroom.

-It’s Time Attack. In fact, there is no way within common sense to delay the flowering of horse flowers any further. Normally.

-What if I use level 5 magic again?

-There’s going to be an uproar in the hall again about magic and other things. Above all, if you postpone it like that, there will be problems with the completion of the contract itself.

-What are you going to do?

-As I said, it is a time attack. We’ll help you without being seen, so gather the ingredients as quickly as possible.

Deltan heard those words from Jack.

help.

Yes, there was no bad reason to give it.

Isn’t this the moment when we found out the purpose of the hall?

This is the moment when it becomes clear that the hall has no intention of sending him home in the first place.

It was right to use whatever was available, and to be grateful for any help that could be obtained.

But still.

“… This is not it.”

This kind of situation was unwelcome even for Deltans.

1. Arrive at the Dragon Shrine. (Incomplete)

2. Awaken the seal of the Holy Land. (Incomplete)

3. Face the master of the martyrs. (Incomplete)

4. Keep the heat down. (Incomplete)

The scorching sun beat down.

It felt like my weak skin was going to burn, and at the same time, sweat was running down my face.

All you can see is sand.

I couldn’t find anything else.

Yes.

The Deltans were suddenly thrown into the desert.

This body has no use at all.

Without a guardian.

Without any preparation.

“Yay… .”

It’s like a dog.

Deltan trembled with anger.

*

Deltans did not walk.

This is because even in an island with a good climate, if you move your body, which spreads even if you walk for even 5 minutes, you will be buried in the desert and die.

Moreover, the clothes were like that too.

In the confusion just before the body change, Agnes came out in her pajamas, and Deltaine was wearing a thin white dress with a shawl over it.

As the weather was cold, the shawl was being used on the head to block the sun.

‘The situation is really dirty.’

Deltan sighed.

Then I thought about what I could do.

It didn’t suit the Deltan’s temperament to whine and ask for something to be done.

‘I probably didn’t send you here to just go out and die.’

I was so embarrassed that I didn’t think about it too much, but Jack’s name, Lobreak, belonged to the first Archmage.

In other words, if we only measure time, it means that he was called to this world more than a thousand years ago.

You will have a lot of experience and know a lot.

In his opinion, this means that there is a way to get out of this place.

In addition, there is another fact I found out.

Deltan clicked his tongue and said, ‘Tsk.’

‘… Still, I like the time scale.’

Lobrake was brought to this world 30 years ago and has lived here for a thousand years.

The time multiplier is 33.3 times.

It’s been almost 6 years since I was drifting, so roughly less than 2 months would have passed there.

If that’s the case, it would be possible to go back to the day I was sucked in using a different tactic later.

‘then… .’

What needs to be done right now has been decided.

The priority is to somehow escape this desert and find the city.

After making his decision, Deltan tried to raise Mana.

However, it didn’t work out well.

This was the reason why the demonic fire in the heart resisted mana.

Even if that wasn’t the case, the amount of mana in his entire body was poor.

‘Does it count as poison?’

Well, since there was a history of slowing down growth with mana in the previous treatment, it is understandable that Mahwa perceives it that way.

The use of magic is not possible.

It was the biggest crisis.

If I had known this would happen, I would have put a moving tool in the cartridge.

Deltan, who had never felt the need for mobility up to this point, thought of late regrets.

‘What can this body do?’ .’

Deltan collapsed on the floor.

Sand splashed on my thighs, and because of my sweat, it stuck to me instead of falling off.

I felt uncomfortable.

I had to put the shawl I was holding on the floor to shake it off, but the sun beating down on my head was too hot to do so.

The next concern is whether taking off the shawl or shaking the sand off the body is more important.

The conclusion eventually came.

‘… ‘It’s a shame to avoid the sun.’

Deltan threw away his shawl and shook off the sand.

He was a person who really disliked unpleasant sensations.

The body was exposed to the sun.

Deltan handed Agnes an apple that would not be delivered.

‘Pretend you have a tan. It’s healthy and good.’

Agnes’ skin was pathologically white.

It might be okay to take this opportunity to burn a little healthily.

No, I’m just going to burn it like this. If I live in seclusion again, it will turn white.

Deltan closed his eyes.

I tried to think of a way, but only one thought came to mind.

‘hot.’

It was hot.

I was annoyed.

I felt uncomfortable because of the sweat and when I thought about the grains of sand, I wanted to swear at myself.

If you were from Hebron, the Delta, you wouldn’t have to worry about this because you wouldn’t feel heat or cold.

My teeth are shaking with regret.

‘In times like this, even a glass of cool water… .’

Stop-

Deltan stopped moving.

‘… for a moment.’

There was one thing I could do with this body.

It is also optimized for use in the desert.

‘Summon a spirit.’

Deltan opened his eyes wide and stood up with a nervous look on his face.

‘Originally, contracts are made between souls.’

But something special.

Agnes’ spirit fell in love with her magic and made a contract.

I don’t know how it is now, but the first contract was made with the flesh.

In other words, the person using this body can also call on spirits.

Deltan let out a sigh.

And then I parted my lips.

“… Horn Lake.”

One, two, three.

The moment I counted that far in my heart.

Hwaaah!!!

There was a blizzard in the desert.
