‘Should I pretend I didn’t commit the perfect crime?’

There are no CCTVs here, so if there are no witnesses, it can just happen.

However, it was inevitable that I would feel resentful of Damon for creating such an unpleasant situation.

-Now I feel a little relieved!

Looking at the broken tombstone, Damon opened his beak and laughed as if he was satisfied.

“What are you going to do if you destroy this?”

-It’s written about me. Who dares say that I can destroy it at will?

“I can say enough. “Even though it is neglected, it is a cultural heritage.”

Cultural heritage belongs to the empire.

Even if you wrote down Damon’s story, it doesn’t make sense to think of it as your own.

-What does it have to do with the laws set by humans? I know that because if you show me anything like this from now on, I will destroy everything. Are you displeased that traces of those guys still remain in this world?

What did the humans of the past do to Damon?

I made such a big mistake that I hate him even though so much time has passed.

Seeing that they cannot even tolerate the cultural heritage they left behind makes me think that they are twisted and twisted.

‘It’s fortunate that I can take my anger out on a tombstone.’

Damon, who had signed a contract with me after being released from the seal and had been getting along well, was showing an ugly attitude, as if the tombstone had brought back anger from the past.

It was a life that was never friendly to humans.

“You hid it well all this time.”

-If he had all his strength left when the seal was broken, he would have killed them all.

He says it obediently, probably because he thought there was no need to hide it anymore since he was already caught.

“Do you still have the desire to kill all humans?”

-If that were the case, I wouldn’t be doing this. I guess he escaped from you somehow and went around killing humans.

Was your anger toward humans that great?

“Why not? “In the past, it was because I didn’t have the strength, but now I have the strength.”

I’ve even evolved, so if I put my mind to it, there’s nothing I can’t do.

Of course, there must be a condition that I do not interfere.

He might at least be capable of manipulating things, but as far as I know, Damon has never tried to do anything suspicious.

-All the guys I wanted to kill are already dead. If they were still alive, they would have killed them, but I don’t think that would happen.

Well, because so much time has passed, it would be impossible to trace back who was whose ancestor.

-I don’t think killing anyone will make me feel better.

“Why did you break the monument?”

-It’s their traces. Even the slightest trace is unacceptable.

Even the slightest trace is unacceptable?

‘Isn’t there only one monument like this here?’

I couldn’t help but think about that after hearing the story from Erintina.

And it seems like Damon also had that thought.

-There is only one monument like this, right? Are there more somewhere else?

“… “Why is that happening all of a sudden?”

-If there is one, you should destroy it too.

“hey. “This is cultural heritage?”

According to Erintina’s research, there are many of these types of tombstones and they contain various contents other than those related to Damon.

-Is it true that it exists? Where are you? let me know.

“They said if you show them, they will destroy everything. But how do you tell me where it is?”

-Isn’t it better to destroy a tombstone than to destroy a human being?

“… … .”

It was the first time I was speechless at Damon’s words.

-If you just tell me where the tombstone is, I won’t take my anger out on the humans here. You too were worried that I would kill humans. If I vent my anger on something else, wouldn’t it be good for you too?

When I hit the nail on the head, I am speechless.

‘Did he speak so well?’

Does Damon think that equating the humans who lived at the time the monument was created with the humans who live today is too severe a case of guilt by association?

My thoughts were shattered through Damon’s next words.

-Honestly, it’s true that I’m staying calm because I lost my strength because of the seal, and I feel like I’ll die as a result if I go on a rampage by myself, but what’s worse is that I feel like I’ll be destroyed on my own even if I don’t have to go out and try to kill him. So I’m just watching leisurely.

He was looking at the situation quite realistically.

“It’s a shame. “Have you been thinking that way, knowing that my goal is to clean up all contaminated areas?”

-Will that work? The owner doesn’t know because he hasn’t been deep into the contaminated zone. In my opinion, it is not easy for humans to survive.

“Are you really acting like you saw something?”

Come to think of it… .

‘Can’t spirits roam around the contaminated area as they please?’

This is because monsters do not attack spirits because it is close to nature.

Of course, when the spirit is with the contractor, the spirit is also subject to attack.

But what is good about spirits?

Communication is possible and mobility is very good.

What if you moved around the contaminated area with that mobility?

‘You must have seen all kinds of things, right?’

What if Damon wandered around the contaminated area when he said he would go for a walk?

“You know a lot about contaminated areas, right?”

-I’ve been there often, so I’m bound to know something. I’ve seen a lot of things you couldn’t even imagine.

“Tell me more details. “How far into the contaminated area have you been?”

Even the areas that have been considered deep on the front lines are only the beginning when looking at the total area of the contaminated zone.

So even I don’t know what the situation is deep in the contaminated zone.

It is ridiculous to claim that you know everything about the contaminated area based on information you see in the game.

-You want to know that for free? no. If you really want to know, please tell me where the tombstone is.

The terms of the deal were to tell me the location of the tombstone in exchange for telling me what I saw in the contaminated area.

‘I can’t help it.’

In the end, isn’t a tombstone only valuable if humanity is alive?

Calling it a tombstone is ultimately something done by ‘people’.

Management and research also require ‘people’.

This means that saving people comes before tombstones.

“Okay, I’ll tell you.”

– Heng, it would have happened a long time ago! We made some sense today, let’s keep doing this in the future. Do you understand, master?

“You’re so cocky today. “If you don’t want to hit the nail on the head, let’s just be a bit fussy, shall we?”

-Monument location!!!

“Okay, man.”

I tell Damon the location of the ‘monument’, a trace of the past, and Damon tells me the current status of the contaminated area.

It was a deal that both were satisfied with.

※ ※ ※

I have a lot of work to do.

It seems like it was just yesterday that there were two months, but now there is only one month left.

Thanks to having a flying pet, the travel time to prepare for the third scenario was greatly reduced, but it was not something to be optimistic about.

There was still a lot to do, and we needed to prepare for what was to come.

“He didn’t come today either.”

Meanwhile, Damon checked the location of the tombstone he had received from me and disappeared.

He was a guy who always ate his meals no matter what, but instead of even doing that, he started going around destroying tombstones.

Of course there would be uproar, but I think it was a worthwhile transaction.

‘Contaminated zone hatchery.’

So far I have tended to follow the main scenario.

There was absolutely no reason to give up the benefits of knowing the future.

So I acted according to the main scenario.

‘If you follow the main scenario, you will have to wait a long time to kill the hatchery.’

Finding and destroying the hatchery that is constantly producing monsters in the contaminated zone is a scenario that will be far in the future.

In order to proceed with the main scenario in order, the hatchery should not pop up now, but thanks to Damon, I was able to find out the existence of the hatchery.

And I couldn’t ignore this.

This was because humanity could gain great benefits every time one hatchery was eliminated.

‘Every time you destroy a hatchery, it’s the same as solving a monster wave.’

Killing an egg monster does not require much effort.

Therefore, when a hatchery is discovered, its destruction must be given the highest priority.

“I need to discuss it with Thalia.”

I had to consult with Thalia to make sure the hatchery was a top priority.

Additionally, I thought it would be a good idea to consult with Erintina and come up with a way to find out about the hatchery.

‘I’m glad I now know that spirits can be used in this way.’

If Damon hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have known there was a method like this.

The problem is that Damon went to destroy the tombstone, making it impossible to communicate with Thalia.

“When on earth is this guy coming? Where are you hanging out using the tombstone as an excuse? “It looks suspicious.”

The academy has just entered vacation.

Yul also returned home to tell the good news, and the general store, which had already had no customers, even more so.

The SSR characters I’ve currently summoned will begin their final year to enlist next year.

As the 100-lot draw became possible, many duplicate orbs could be obtained, but many SSR characters were also able to be drawn.

It would be nice to be able to control the selection of SSR characters, but that was not possible, and since it was impossible not to draw duplicate marbles, the number of SSR characters that had to be managed next semester reached a whopping 16.

This also means that there are only 16 students, and there were 3 SSR characters that appeared as non-student characters.

A total of 19 SSR characters will be attending the academy’s final semester next semester.

‘They raised the difficulty level for discernment, but I don’t think it will be of any use.’

And for some reason, I had an ominous feeling that there would be a lot more accidents next year than this year.

‘There have been enough incidents this year, but I don’t know why I feel this way.’

Since you have to solve the main scenario for a while, there will be a lot of work to do.
