episode_0286

We returned to the place surrounded by the blue wall.

[There are 45 participants in the third round.]

As I entered the room, I heard the manager’s voice.

I could see that 25 people were eliminated in the previous round.

[Round 3 then begins.]

“It looks like there is no rest in ranked matches..”

“It seems that the summoning app considers physical strength as basic.”

“I like that. I’m in good spirits.”

The ranked match was literally like a marathon.

It seemed like it continued to show the next problem and continue until the last 10 people remained.

[The theme of round 3 is cooperation.]

“This time it’s cooperation..”

[When summoned to a new dimension, there are frequent situations where you end up merging with an opponent you met for the first time. Even if your inclinations do not match, you must move forward together to solve the problem.]

“That’s right..”

I sympathized with the theme of round 3.

There were users who were summoned and met for the first time and asked to draw a sword or drink poison, but in order to gain ratings, you had to become friendly with them and resolve the conditions.

[So, the team I didn’t like the most was the entrants. In other words, 5 people come together to form a team.]

“Uh…?”

[Nos. 2, 9, 13, 27, 33. You are an unlucky team. Ace number is Christian Convo user number 2.]

Four beings suddenly appeared before my eyes.

At first, there was the man with angel wings number 2 whom I had the misfortune of seeing, and the three female users numbered 9, 13, and 27.

“These guys thought I was unlucky.”

“…”

“…”

“…”

“…”

In the awkward silence, the only one who answered was Angel Number 2.

There was a time when I thought I was out of luck with angel wings.

However, the three women’s eyes seemed to widen for a moment when they saw me rather than the angel wings.

It seemed that female users did not look kindly on me because my title reads, ” sex is not included in the condition. “.

“They say I’m unlucky.. That’s understandable. The gap between me is the difference between heaven and earth.”

‘It’s not you… it’s me…’

I almost said that, but I just didn’t say anything.

I spoke with courage in an awkward situation.

“…Whether we like it or not, we’re on the same team… Let’s do our best in round 3…”

“Uh..”

“Yes.”

“…”

“That’s a good opinion. Human.”

Among the sour reactions, only the angel responded positively.

He seemed like a pretty nice guy.

Above all, the angel seemed to have no particular feelings or thoughts when looking at the four of us.

So, I wanted to give it the highest score in the mental aspect.

“I forgive your evil hearts. Let’s do our best.”

“Thank you for forgiving me. Angel Wings.”

“You can call it a convo.”

“Yes. My name is Park Ja-geun.”

“Park Ja-geun. I understand.”

He may seem unlucky from the way he speaks, but isn’t he still the ace of our team? And he didn’t seem to hate me that much.

Rather, the problem was the three women over there.

I felt like they were looking at me like I was a bug.

“Administrator. So what are we doing with this team?”

[You will play against another team. Compete through various missions such as occupation, defense, takeover, and battle. If you exceed that score, you will advance to the next round. The team’s advancement score is 100 points.]

“I see… Just because you’re superior doesn’t mean you can advance to the next round. Let’s be together.. Hehe.. It’s good. Who is our team’s first opponent?”

[The unlucky team’s opponent is a smelly team. The enemy team’s ace number is 10.]

“If it is number 10…”

” Was it a shirtless druid? He was a guy who smelled like rotten swamp when he was next to him. ”

“Ah.. I remember.”

I’m not sure, but others knew about number 10.

[The goal of the battle is to compete for the golden apple.]

A 3D holographic terrain background appeared in the middle of the room. Next, it was the manager who explained the goals.

[The golden apple is located in the central giant tree. Just pick as many golden apples as possible and take them to your formation.]

“It’s easy. If I had my wings, all the golden apples would belong to our team.”

The angel spread his wings and expressed confidence.

Obviously, if you leave it alone, it will bring you golden apples on its own.

“Then.. the four of us will protect the apple that Mr. Convo brought. Because it has wings, it will be much faster than the speed at which an individual can supply apples.”

“Not bad..”

“Why don’t you do that..”

“Hehehe.. It’s good. I will get all the golden apples by myself. Because I am Ace.”

With Convo’s confident smile on his face, our team was summoned to the battlefield.

-Tzuu..”

The battlefield is in the forest.

And I saw a huge tree in the distance.

[Round 3 objective match begins. Each team must collect as many golden apples as possible. The team with the most golden apples wins, and the time limit is 1 hour. The count begins. 10..9..8..]

“This round will be quite fun. I’m the one going to the next round.”

[3..2..1..beep!!]

With the sound of the whistle, the curtain of our team formation disappeared.

At that moment, Angel Man Convo number 2 flew up.

The giant tree disappeared in an instant and we stood guard on the spot.

-Trud..

…I just looked at the three female users sitting down without warning.

Girl number 9, feeling my blank gaze, opened her mouth.

“Why. There’s nothing to protect now anyway.”

“Of course.”

Girl number 9 was quite harsh.

The clothes were something to wear freely and however you like.

A leather outfit with pink and blue colors that is not feminine at all.

Her face makeup was like crazy, so it wasn’t clear whether she was pretty or ugly.

-Crash. Klick.. Kklik..

And it seemed like he was a user who used a gun as a weapon.

He grinned while fiddling with his shotgun.

“You sit down too.”

Next, girl number 13 looked at me and told me to sit down.

“Hmm.. I will watch from here because the scent team might attack.”

“…Then you did that.”

“…”

Thank you or something. There are good things to say, such as “Cheer up.” Girl number 13 looked like a gentle sheep, but her tone of voice was a bit harsh.

And the last girl, number 27, said nothing from the beginning until now.

It seemed like my guess from earlier was correct.

It seemed like they all saw me as an unlucky, spoiled guy.

No matter how well I got along with women, it was difficult to seduce women who were wary like that from the start unless forced.

I also decided to give up the idea of being liked and do something that would help me advance to the next round.

“Then… I’ll make a trap around the formation while I’m on guard.”

I left our formation without even hearing a response from the three women.

-Tsu..Tsu..

“I can’t see clearly because of the bushes… If this continues, I’ll be suddenly ambushed.”

“That’s right. It seems best to be as careful as possible when moving alone.”

The forest was so thick that it seemed dangerous to go far.

“Should I blow up all the grass and trees..”

“Then the team formation may be easily discovered.”

“That doesn’t work either.. Miss.. I think it would be better to just make a warning sound sound when someone approaches. If you do something wrong, the team may suffer as well.”

“I think so too.”

I tried to make a trap using the traps I made in the Demon King’s Dungeon, but it seemed like it would be difficult.

So, we decided to create a signal line that only sounded a warning sound and return to the formation.

-Shoo!! Chubbuck.

After setting up the trap and arriving at our team formation, I also saw the angel convo who had arrived with me.

“I brought golden apples.”

-Patter patter!

“Oh..”

“As expected, you are an ace angel.”

“Sure. If we continue like this, we will win.”

“…”

Everyone was happy to see the huge amount of golden apples.

“Huh?”

However, the golden apple I caught gave me a strange and ominous feeling.

There is only one golden apple visible above the formation.

“Wait a minute. Are these all golden apples?”

“Can’t you tell by looking at it? I’m sure.”

“… It’s strange… Only one golden apple number went up… ”

“That can’t be possible.. If this isn’t a golden apple, what can I say? I’m more suspicious.”

“Wait a minute.. Jeonghwa..”

Let me use purification while looking at the apple.

Gradually, the golden color peeled off and a red color appeared.

“This is not a golden apple, it’s just an apple..”

“No..!”

“Wait a minute. The rest… no way! Purification!”

I used purification while looking at the apples piled up.

Then, the golden skin peeled off and a red apple appeared.

“This… is the work of the smell team.”

“I can’t believe it… I was fooled!”

Our team has one golden apple.

-Tiring..Tiring tiring.

The scent team’s golden apples rose to a whopping 20.

“It’s a big deal..”

“Damn.. angel man! I can’t choose just one thing!?”

“I was just picking apples. It is not my responsibility to make a distinction..!”

Did you say that there is only one difference between Carrie and Troll?

The convo in front of me immediately became a troller.

“It can’t go on like this. If you pick apples again, there will be fake ones!”

Girl number 9 shouted in excitement.

“I will go with you. I use purification to bring only real golden apples.”

“When are you going to purify them one by one? The gap is already widening! It won’t work! We have to go to the enemy formation and take the golden apple!”

“Good. Everyone does it on their own. Because we have nothing to protect.”

“Here…there is one…”

“Noisy angel. Are you making a big fuss with just one golden apple!?”

“That’s right. What did you say earlier? Is it easy to advance to the next round? You’re the only one going up? Oh my.. If I’m unlucky..!”

“Keu.. I’m sorry.”

Is it similar to the failure of a man working outside?

Conbo was eating a bowl of cursing among the women.

“This is your last chance. Men. Pick the golden apples well. Because we will steal it.”

“Keep this in mind. Well then… let’s all go on our own.”

Our team eventually abandoned our formation and went outside.

It felt very bad, but I couldn’t help it.

No matter how hard I struggled, I had to somehow increase the number of golden apples.
