episode_0077

77. See the abyss.

I moved quickly.

When people were only interested in the warrior, we had to move quickly.

Flash-!!

Soon a bright light appeared.

The light was blinding for a moment.

Soon many people turned their heads towards the light.

And he looked surprised.

“Oh…!!”

“Pioneer!!”

“Suddenly disappeared!!”

This was because the trickster floating in the air suddenly disappeared. Where the trickster was, there was only an empty sky.

Before moving quickly, I canceled the beam projector magic.

It was right for the trickster to mysteriously disappear like this.

Anyway, I moved between people in an instant.

And right before the saintess arrived at my avatar.

“Phew.”

I was able to return to my original position at just the right moment.

And as soon as I arrived there, the avatar disappeared.

He was also a teacher.

The magic was canceled at just the right time.

Anyway, a saint would be able to notice something strange. Still, it was because he was a 3rd awakened level being.

But now she didn’t seem to have the spirit to do so.

“Jace…”

She had a blank expression on her face.

A face that is both happy and sad?

I could roughly understand her feelings.

‘Well, I saw the hero’s fall in real time…’

Clearly, the saint does not like warriors. That was certain.

But still, we were once colleagues. They also stayed together for quite a long time.

Perhaps, your feelings will be different from other people.

I slowly extended my hand towards the saint.

Thump.

And I held her trembling little hand.

“Oh…!”

It was something I did without even knowing. Maybe it was because of the kisses we’d had so far that made me feel affectionate.

‘It’s warm.’

Soon her face turned red at my actions. And with that, the distraught expression disappeared.

This was because it was almost the first time he showed such affection(?). Even though we’ve kissed a lot, this was our first time holding hands like this.

That’s why she seemed to react more violently.

Soon the saint lowered her head and didn’t know what to do. I could feel her movements wiggling in my hands.

I laughed a little at that.

Have you achieved a great achievement and felt lighter?

Each of the saintly lady’s actions looked quite cute.

‘I need to hold hands sometimes.’

It was then.

“Jace!!”

Suddenly I heard a voice calling me.

As I slowly turned my head, I saw the elf princess approaching at high speed.

She was also looking for me.

Soon Lucien came next to me.

No one knew that the saint and I were currently holding hands. This was because it was hidden among people.

But I could tell when I got right next to it.

“You guys…!!”

Soon Lucien’s eyes opened wide. It seemed like he was about to get angry.

But it was only for a moment.

“Ugh, you should understand on days like this.”

I soon saw her nodding.

As a woman, I understood the saint’s heart.

Of course, it wasn’t just understanding.

Thump.

Soon she also reached out and grabbed my other hand.

It was like seeing brothers when they were young. If one side took something, the other side had to take the same thing.

“Heh, good…”

As soon as Lucien held my hand, he smiled brightly. It was a beautiful smile that seemed to brighten the surroundings.

‘It’s definitely pretty.’

She was, after all, an elf princess. Even though I don’t see it often, it was a really pretty smile.

So I held the hands of the two women and stood still.

“Die!!”

“You bastard hero!!”

“What are you going to do!!”

Among so many people, we seemed to be the only ones left out.

In a playground filled with red anger, should we say that only the three of us are spreading a pink atmosphere?

And the feeling wasn’t bad.

No, it was actually good.

“Everyone, get away from me!”

Maybe it’s because of a warrior who is going through a completely opposite situation than me.

***

next day.

“Ho, something like that happened?”

“Pfft! yes….! That’s why I made this plan.”

Today too, I received magic training from my teacher.

I also felt quite a bit of pain. It felt like every cell in my body was being torn apart.

But my face was brighter than I expected.

It was because the plan I had worked out went well.

More accurately, it could be said that it was because the warrior fell into the abyss.

Now there is not a single person who respects the warrior. Even Yongqui was the same.

Everyone hated him.

I wasn’t just talking about the Royal Academy.

The whole of Trier came to hate the warrior. Before I knew it, the rumor had quickly spread throughout the city.

Moreover, this rumor was not limited to Trier. It was quickly spreading throughout the Kingdom of Aachen.

Of course, the Kingdom of Aachen was not the end.

Probably, soon everyone in the world will know.

It was as if the entire reputation of the warrior he had built up had fallen into the abyss.

Thanks to this, the warrior became completely alone.

Even saints no longer go around with him.

Additionally, you will receive a call from the church soon.

Maybe an excommunication would come down.

‘It’s an excommunication…’

Here in Newpan, excommunication was not a matter to be taken lightly.

For medieval people, religion was life itself. It could not be compared to modern times.

If they were excommunicated, they would not be treated as human beings.

‘I don’t know if I become an emperor or a king… but being a warrior is completely over.’

In addition, you will be deprived of salvation in the afterlife. In fact, it is now the biggest. Because of this, people feared excommunication.

To put it simply, it meant that you really go to hell after you die.

Here in Newpan, I could directly feel the presence of God. The divine power was the proof.

In addition, if you actually became a pope or a saint, you would receive revelations from God.

In fact, Newpan was the place where you could directly feel the presence of God and the devil.

Of course, hell also existed.

And those who are excommunicated will fall into hell. It could truly be said to be a huge punishment.

‘Well, if you think about what the hero did, he should definitely go to hell.’

In any case, does it happen that a warrior falls into the abyss even after death?

I felt as if a tooth I had suffered from for a long time had fallen out. So I was able to concentrate better and my magic training went very smoothly.

“Hmm, something like that happened. That’s why he asked me to make him a strange dagger.”

By the way, it is only now that Master has learned the full story of this incident.

Without even asking why, he created a dagger that emits magical energy.

He looked truly professional(?). As long as he got the money, he didn’t seem to care about the reason at all.

Of course, there were some wizards like this. Although the teacher was especially harsh.

At that time, Master asked a sharp question.

“But is it true that the real hero conspired with the devil and made a false pact?”

I was a little worried about Master’s question.

And I just said it honestly.

“Hmm… I’m not sure. It is true that they lied about the truce period, but it is not clear that they colluded with the devil.”

“What is it? So you sent him to the abyss with unclear information?!”

“Anyway, isn’t it a 100-year truce?”

“Ha…! Scary guy…! I guess I should be careful too.”

Of course, Master just said that. There was no change in continuing to pump mana into my body.

“Ugh…! Still, if you look at the new version as a whole, I have done a very big job.”

“Tsk, that’s right.”

No one knew exactly when the ceasefire would end. Only the hero and the demon king knew. And the two kept their mouths shut.

But it was true that it was not 100 years.

And this was very important.

‘It’s not the time to relax.’

Now the world was at its leisure.

He believed only the words of the hero and was taking a long rest. In fact, most countries around the world had significantly reduced their military budgets.

But soon a great rumor will hit every country. The rumor was that the 100-year truce was a lie.

Then you will also realize that you cannot just rest.

‘We should increase our military budget again and resume training.’

Most countries will probably prepare for a future invasion by the devil.

And this was really something. And it was the right thing to do.

So Master also acknowledged what I said.

The plan created to send the hero into the abyss ended up saving the entire world.

‘Well… I’m still going to be brave, but I’m going to be brave…’

In fact, after I won the top position, I just had to open the new version. Whatever happens to the new version after I leave, it had nothing to do with me.

But there was a connection between them.

But didn’t they say that good things are good things?

It was even better for me that both Earth and Newpan were at peace.

‘Cancer, of course.’

At that time, I heard Master’s voice.

“Oh, and are you looking for the archmage you saw last time?”

“Ah, he stole 10,000 gold…”

“Yes! 10,000 gold like my blood!!”

“Why is it Master’s money… Ugh, I’m looking for it. But I don’t think there’s any news.”

I submitted requests to the mercenary guild and the adventurer guild.

I was trying to find the red-haired archmage I saw last time.

Of course, he did not step forward as a mercenary king.

‘It’s a bit weird for the mercenary king to send a request to the adventurer’s guild.’

I submitted a request as a dark wizard, but I haven’t heard any news.

Is he really the Great Wizard of the Abyss?

It was very difficult to find.

Of course, it didn’t matter if I didn’t have to look for it. I just put in the request because of my teacher.

‘The materials contained in the space pocket alone amounted to over 10,000 gold. The magic bag contains over 100,000 gold.’

This time, when sending a warrior to the abyss, the materials in the bag were very useful.

This alone could be considered enough to be worth 10,000 gold pieces.

Of course, Master’s reaction was different.

“My, my money…! These lousy guys…!”

Immediately, I had a seizure. Anyway, I don’t know why people change like this when it comes to money.

That was when I was watching my teacher having a seizure.

‘hmm?’

At that moment, I felt a presence outside.

I first calmed down Master.

“Master. Someone came.”

“Ugh…! I got it.”

Master immediately hid himself.

Slurp.

In an instant, Master’s appearance disappeared in front of me.

He had hidden himself using invisibility magic.

‘Is it amazing every time I see it?’

It was an advanced magic created by my teacher, and it was a magic I had not learned yet.

Anyway, I approached the door.

And immediately opened the door.

Because it was a figure I knew well.

“Welcome.”

“Thank you for your hard work!!”

It was Pierre Baumann who contributed greatly to this plan.
