by fnovelpia“So to sum it up, the Lord of Death appeared last among the four monarchs and was active as a ‘witch who spreads death’ in the central continent, but was subjugated by Arthur and sealed in an ‘artificial body’ created by scholars in the West Continent. You mean it’s done?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
After I received a call that Aslen had come to her senses, I finished the unfinished conversation with her.
” Also, the ritual that Paradise Church was trying to conduct was an attempt to recreate the method that the Lord of Death used to increase his own power? ”
“Yes.”
What I learned while listening to the story is that those who wrote it also did not completely understand the monarchs.
“Magic energy is a type of ‘chaos energy’ that is the main resource of monarchs, so injecting magic energy into a monarch can make the monarch stronger. Right?”
“Yes. As chaos increases in the world, you will naturally become stronger without having to inject demon energy, but it is more efficient to inject it directly.”
Anyway, thanks to Aslen’s explanation, I was able to vaguely understand what happened on the previous route.
Daisy was injected with a lot of magical energy accumulated in the magic sword.
And a large amount of chaotic energy was generated when life on earth was wiped out by those daisies.
Rusk naturally became stronger due to this chaotic energy.
‘It’s so damn good.’
Rusk has become strong enough to devastate an entire continent due to the war in the central continent.
Since a situation more serious than war has arisen, it is understandable that even the world’s Rupiah becomes too strong to handle it.
“As for the monarch, this should be enough for now.”
“Hey… . What happens to me?”
Aslen asked with concern in his voice.
Maybe it was because he had his head down so as not to see my face, but he looked somewhat miserable.
‘Aslen’s treatment… .’
It doesn’t matter since you’ll be retrying the current route anyway, but you need to think about Aslen’s treatment in the strategy route.
First of all, it is valuable just to be able to contact the people who record, and since I am also versed in archaeology, I would like to include them if possible.
“Perhaps… . Is it being ‘processed’..? If that’s the case, there’s someone I’d like to meet one last time… . So that I can at least leave a will… .”
“We are not that kind of organization.”
I wondered why I was so worried, but I was convinced that it was well worth it considering that they attacked Paradise Bridge and killed everyone except Aslen.
“Is the person you want to meet Gordon?”
“Ah, yes. that’s right. As expected, you knew… .”
Aslen doesn’t know that Gordan is dead.
You can’t imagine that an express driver would have died so needlessly.
“What is your relationship?”
“…I’ve known you since I was young… . He’s a childhood friend.”
Although it was only a brief moment, I could see through Aslen’s expression what she thought of Gordan.
‘The plan to stop Gordan through Aslen is likely to work.’
If we do well, we might be able to capture Aslen and Gordon in 1+1?
“Childhood friends with Ariel… Right?”
“…Yes.”
An archaeologist from a secret society, a special knight, and an A-class heroine with mind control abilities are childhood friends.
What on earth is this town doing?
“Okay. First, take rest until your body recovers. I won’t kill you or anything, so don’t worry.”
Aslen smiled and nodded on the outside, but inside he still had a low level of disbelief.
Well, it doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not.
I’m going to retry anyway.

The Paradise Bridge incident was resolved.
However, Ariel’s strategy progress did not increase.
This is because Ariel’s strategy only works when she admits defeat.
Ariel is currently quarantined in the Management Bureau.
Therefore, the Church of Paradise cannot be controlled, and at the same time, even if the Church of Paradise is destroyed, it has nothing to do with Ariel.
Therefore, in order to make Ariel admit defeat,
We have to free her.
If the plan falls apart even though you are making the move yourself, there is no room for rationalization.
Above all, if the goal of the event was to completely stop Paradise Bridge, there would have been plenty of save points to prepare for.
‘The bottom line is that we have to let Gordan rescue Ariel.’
However, if this happens, the management bureau will suffer devastating damage.
There is no time to evacuate employees in advance, and above all, it is not clean.
Simple is better than complicated.
Coincidentally, there is a ‘facility’ prepared for times like this.
‘I think it’s finally time to use a model house.’
A ‘model house’, an operational facility, built at great expense in the hope that it might be used someday.
I used it occasionally, but after retrying, a better method came to mind, so I never actually used it.
Every time we do maintenance on a useless topic, we lose a lot of money, which is a headache that regularly raises our finance manager’s blood pressure.
Because of this, I got hit hard on the back by Tanya.
Those little hands were so spicy.
After making a reasonable plan in my head, I headed to Olivia’s laboratory.
Karjen is perfect for quick and easy searching.

When outsiders visit the management office, the location is not disclosed.
Instead, our staff goes out to pick up visitors and makes them wear blindfolds so that their route is unknown.
This applies without exception, whether you are an express knight or a prime minister of an empire.
So when Gordon invaded at dawn, I was honestly embarrassed.
I can’t believe you can figure out my location even though I’m blindfolded.
Fucking superhuman bastards.
Anyway, the important thing is that Gordon does not yet know the location of the Bureau.
Therefore, if you contact the employee who left to pick you up and quickly change the destination from the management office to the ‘model house’, the management office will not go bankrupt.
“Aegwynn, start the model house operation. The resident is Ariel. I have to finish ‘moving’ before 2pm, so I’m in a hurry.”
“Yes, I understand.”
After the retry, the first thing I did was stop by the central management office and give instructions to Manager Aegwynn about the operation.
After watching the management staff busily following Aegwynn’s instructions for a while, I left the central management office.
The destination we’re heading to this time is Olivia’s laboratory.
Since the only person with sufficient strength to deal with Gordan, the special knight, is Karjen, who has enough blood, a ‘contract’ is planned.
In the last route, I knew that Karjen had succumbed to blood, but I didn’t proceed with the contract because I wanted to tease her a little more.
However, since the opponent is an opponent and Karjen’s power is needed, there is nothing that can be done.
‘It’s a bit unfortunate that the confirmed retry is disappearing.’
If you proceed with the contract, Karjen will no longer be able to harm you, so easy retries using Karjen will be blocked.
It’s not that there aren’t other ways, but I liked it because it was the easiest and fastest.
This is all because of that bitch Ariel.
I need to take this opportunity to properly destroy it.

“Nice to meet you. This is Siegfried, Director of the Pixie Management Bureau.”
“This is Gordon.”
I don’t know how many times I’ve said goodbye like this, I’m so sick of it.
I greeted Gordon at the model house.
A fake management bureau, aka model house, made to match the management bureau facilities by more than 93%.
An employee who has been working for a long time or a fixie who has been in quarantine for a long time may be able to tell that it is fake, but the likelihood that a first-time visitor will notice is close to zero.
“There are fewer people than I thought.”
Gordon, who was walking with me into the administration office, said.
Of course, if the facilities are similar but there are no people there, there is no point in disguising it.
So, we filled in fake employees using Veronica’s alter egos, but due to lack of time, we couldn’t prepare a large number.
“It’s vacation season.”
“……”
Gordon didn’t really respond to my shameless answer.
I tend to just have a good sense of humor.
“The purpose of the visit stated that it was to provide information. Is it somehow related to Paradise Church?”
“Yes.”
“Can you tell me?”
“Here?”
It was a question that seemed to urge me to go inside.
From Gordon’s point of view, it is natural to know the location of the office because it will be easier during the next break-in.
“Because there is a part where I guess. If my guess is correct, we should go to the isolation room, not the reception room.”
“……”
Gordon’s eyes changed when he heard the word “isolation room.”
Ultimately, his goal is to rescue Ariel.
So you won’t be able to ignore this piece of cake I threw at you.
“I see.”
Gordon stopped in place.
I also stopped after him.
“Director, do you know Ariel?”
Gordon asked the rice cake.
*
“This is Ariel’s isolation room.”
I guided Gordon to Ariel’s quarantine facility.
As if he completely trusted Gordon, the special engineer, he was talking about TMI about Ariel.
Inside the facility, clones in the form of employees were pretending to be busy working in their own way.
‘You’re doing well.’
I made eye contact with one of the clones, and I nodded to tell them to continue.
The clone also nodded along.
“Can’t you see Ariel?”
“Yes. Since we don’t know how the gift will work, we have no choice but to block it so that no water can leak.”
Gordon touched the wall of the isolation room where Ariel was confined.
It seemed like they were checking to see if they could break it.
“Instead, you can communicate using the installed phone. Do you want to do it?”
“Yes.”
It’s really cheesy to give a short answer from earlier.
Anyway, I led Gordon into a room where a telephone was installed.
“…Ariel?”
Gordon picks up the phone and calls Ariel’s name.
“That voice… . It’s been a while.”
Ariel responds to this.
Before I knew it, Gordon had a spear in his hand.
‘Fuck, look at your good behavior.’
As soon as Gordon confirmed Ariel’s existence, he revealed his true colors.
In an instant, he brutally tore apart the fake employees around him and broke through the wall of the isolation room.
Ariel leisurely walks out from inside.
She looked around and smiled at me.
“It’s nice to see you from outside, Zeke.”
“I’m not happy to see you.”
“Really? I thought you would be happy… .”
“Me? You?”
“Hehehe. sure. Didn’t you want me to escape?”
Sharp bitch.
“I never thought Gordon would come to save me. I couldn’t even imagine it. You came here because of ‘Paradise Bridge’, right?”
“Yes.”
From what I heard, Ariel didn’t know that Gordon would come to save her.
Well, even if it’s Ariel, it’s been several years since she was quarantined in the management bureau.
I guess Paradise Church only helped me a little when I first made it.
‘It’s not a particularly important fact.’
“Then, shall we go?”
Gordon shook his head at Ariel’s suggestion.
“There are still targets to take care of.”
Gordon killed all the employees except one.
The captured employees were placed in front of Ariel as if urging her to rule quickly.
“Take control and ask about a girl about 10 years old with blonde hair.”
Daisy is a girl about 10 years old with blonde hair.
Considering that she didn’t say she was a girl who kills people with her voice, it seems like Gordan clearly doesn’t know much about the Lord of Death.
“I cannot control it. Unfortunately, this child is not a ‘human’.”
“…What?”
“Gordon, look at the people you killed. Are there any bodies left?”
“……”
Only then did Gordon look around.
When an alter ego dies, it disappears shortly thereafter.
Thanks to this, the inside, which had been stained with blood and flesh, was cleaned up.
“The facilities seem to have been made quite similarly, but it seems they failed to pay attention to traces of life inside the isolation room. You can’t help but notice it when you take sleeping pills for breakfast in the first place.”
Ariel slightly smiles at me.
“This is the ‘Fake Management Bureau’.”
Clap clap clap –.
I applauded Ariel for getting the answer right.
“I can’t believe I fell into Zeke’s scheme again like this. I’m really happy. It was planned that they would even notice that I was fake, right?”
“That’s right. What if you find out it’s fake? What can you do?”
Neither Ariel nor Gordon know the true location of the Bureau.
The employees here are all clones, so Ariel’s control doesn’t work.
Therefore, in this situation, all Ariel can do is,
“What I can do is… All we’re doing is kidnapping Zeke. If that’s the case, then why on earth did you aim to get me kidnapped? . No, it would be pointless to think about that.”
Ariel was alone with her thoughts.
She looked quite excited.
“……”
At that time, Gordon, who was watching in silence, grabbed me by the collar.
“Why? Even torture?”
I held my head high, looked at Gordon, and laughed at him to the fullest.
In response, Gordon raised his fist,
“Gordon. Stop.”
Stopped by Ariel.
‘I am a precious body.’
Ariel, the living embodiment of the desire to dominate, wants to dominate or be dominated when she sees a worthy human being.
And because I am more valuable than any other person she has ever seen.
Ariel cannot kill me, at least until she meets someone superior to me.
“Let’s return to Paradise Bridge. Come on.”
Ariel pressed Gordon with a smile.
As if he was displeased with this, he roughly threw me at Ariel’s feet.
“Ugh… . Hey, knight. I am weaker than I thought. If you don’t handle it delicately, you might pick it and die.”
“You only lived with your mouth.”
Gordon said, looking at me as if I was pitiful.
‘Ha, that arrogant bastard.’
All the guys who treated me rudely didn’t end well.
Gordon created a spear out of thin air.
It was a blue spear, different from the black one I usually took out.
‘Are they really trying to kill me?’
Just as I was wondering what to do if things continued like this, Gordon’s spear stuck in the ground.
Afterwards, a bluish barrier was formed around the window.
‘What is this again?’
I thought he was just an unlimited refill prostitute, but that wasn’t the end.
The window sank straight into the floor, and the space around it began to distort.
As the strange scene unfolded, the distortion stabilized and a familiar place came into view.
A wide open space, surrounding forests, and even buildings.
Before we knew it, we had arrived at the vacant lot behind Paradise Bridge.
‘Wow, is teleportation possible? It’s a fucking scam.’
Not just an unlimited refill prodigy, but a mobile unlimited refill prodigy.
It’s as good as a special article.
