Episode 198 Master Key (3)

Master.

The person who created a private chat room called the Observer of the Round Table. As he disappeared without a trace, the members all roared out in unison.

“He really went away.”

“…It felt different from when I left the chat room.”

“Yes, just like when you log out…”

Their voices were filled with only questions.

Well, I don’t think there will be much difference in that feeling.

“Wouldn’t you be able to log out only if you went back to your room?”

“Rather than that, when I listened to what you left, it seemed closer to the feeling of being thrown out.”

The case is different from Lee Baek-ho in many ways.

He took the ‘initial pill’ from the beginning, so the time limit was one hour.

On the other hand, what about the master?

A person who was normally fine has a problem.

That’s not reality, but in using the community called ‘Ghostbusters’.

But would you have thought the same as me?

“What the hell is Master going through…”

“I don’t know what it is, but one thing is certain.”

“Are you sure?”

The clown lowered his voice at the fox’s question.

“The thing that disappeared without a word for a year was related to GM.”

For a moment there was silence.

Rather than because it was shocking, it was just a silence created by thinking about each other.

It was generally an atmosphere of concurrence with his guess.

“Well, that’s probably the most likely.”

“But there is a contradiction. If the Master is really under the control of the GM, how can he appear here again?”

“He’s such a mysterious person. Since it’s a space created by magic, I wonder if he found an answer through magic?”

“So that means you might be a more skilled mage than the GM who created this community! Our master is.”

“It’s quite possible, Phisht.”

After that, the members exchanged all sorts of speculations, and I found the contents quite interesting, so I just listened quietly.

Of course, that time didn’t last long.

“… Do you know anything about the monk over there?”

Before long, attention naturally focused on me.

It was natural.

Wasn’t it me who pretended to be Lee Baek-ho and talked about old people in front of them? Sёarch* The ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

I wondered if I might know something.

But…

“Well.”

Do you have the chin to know me?

I am also curious about his identity.

Of course, I have no intention of saying that.

lose shape

“Yes, that’s right. As expected, Mr. Saja…….”

Saying “I don’t know” doesn’t suit the ‘Saja’.

I don’t know if it feels like this.

“There is at least a pinch.”

I interrupted the fox and uttered a short chant.

Then, the tone of the fox’s voice, which showed a disappointed look, rose sharply.

“What do you know? Is that really true! No, this is not to suspect the lion…….”

Anticipation bloomed in the fox’s pupils, revealed through the gaps in the mask before he knew it.

By the way, this is the same as other masks.

‘……Actually, I don’t know anything.’

The conscience of the modern man who still remained was squirming, but he tried to ignore it and cut off the fox again.

“Uh, come on, tell me. What the hell happened to the Master—”

“Enough.”

“……to?”

The fox looked at me with blank eyes as if he thought I would tell him of course.

However, there was no need to explain every phrase.

A slight shrug was enough.

There was no one here who didn’t know the meaning of this gesture anymore.

“I mean bring something fun. Fishit.”

If you want something from me, you should bring something corresponding to it.

That is the iron rule established by the ‘Lion’ at the round table.

Then, what answer will the ‘fox’ give?

“……great.”

It was as expected.

It was because ‘Fox’ was the only person who showed an obsession with the master’s current situation or things like that.

“But I guess the hurdles are a bit low, right? It’s not certain, it’s just a guess…”

I didn’t bother to answer, and the fox let out a deep sigh.

Following the clown who ate rice cakes called ‘Holy Relic’ and the crescent moon whose eyes went back to the ‘revival stone’, he didn’t know that he would end up in this situation as well.

“Somehow, I feel like I have more comrades.

At the words of consolation from the crescent moon, the fox smiled bitterly as if resigned.

This means that the quality of information will increase in the future.

‘Are all that’s left are deer antlers and goblins…

‘

“It’s boring.”

“…….”

“Isn’t it enough for small talk?”

“Yes, let’s start the meeting soon.”

Now that rice cakes are enough, it’s time to harvest.

***

Following the 3rd round where no one was present, the 4th round of the rally has already taken place.

It started with goblins.

“We are looking for a way to break Noark’s barrier by putting our heads together in the Magic Tower.”

When he first said that, everyone reacted as if he was saying something obvious, but everyone was convinced by the goblin’s additional explanation.

“For reference, it seems that a certain amount of divine power is required in the process, and at least the time it takes for the barrier to be lifted seems to be reduced.”

“I guess it means that there was some degree of research achievement.”

“Yes it is.”

To sum it up, the magic curtain protecting Noark could come off soon.

Well, I don’t know how it actually is.

‘Raven thought it would take about 2 years……’

Afterwards, the Goblin’s turn ended with the words that the Mage Tower had set a goal of reducing it to 6 months.

Next up is the deer antlers.

“The royal family has produced a new type of identification tag. It is an imprinted magic tool that cannot be counterfeited. Preparations have been going on for a long time, but next week, explorers will start supplying them.”

“Starting next week… isn’t that too helpful? It’s not the kind of information you can benefit from in advance.”

“Then one more thing. I’m keeping an eye on the clans that stopped exploring because they were buying themselves from the royal family.”

“What exactly do you mean by watching?”

“Looking at the atmosphere, it seemed that although he didn’t know it, he would definitely be given a significant disadvantage in some way.

“…I see.” It

seemed that he didn’t want to show off, but the fox was relieved after hearing the information from the antlers.

Therefore, I also kept that reaction in mind:

‘This fox is most likely a member of a clan. He’s not a regular member, but he’s probably a clan master.’

Of course, it was still at the stage of speculation, so I listened carefully to the words of the next turn.

This time it was the fox’s turn.

“The big clans are preparing a large-scale boycott.”

“A boycott?

” You don’t enter the labyrinth as a group. I still have a lot of complaints about the last subjugation, but recently there was an incident of lighting a fire.” ”

Oh, that’s what I mean. I know what it is.”

Crescent Moon interjected as if he knew the story.

“Is that Bjorn Yandel?”

Huh?

Why does my name appear here?

“Yes. that’s right. Originally, I would have ended up with a fine and banished the normal explorer to Bifron.”

Oh that…….

“Enforcement is your domain, but most clans interpreted this as a warning to us.

” It won’t be good.”

“Yes. There are even rumors that if I withdraw further, I might be forcibly conscripted next time.”

The moment my name was mentioned, my hands stiffened and my lips dried up, but fortunately, no one seemed to notice my reaction.

Bjorn Yandel No one seemed

to be interested in it.

Anyway, after the fox gave some additional answers to the antlers’ questions, the third turn ended

. Continue clockwise?”

“……Can I start with you, Clown?”

“Whatever you want.”

At Crescent Moon’s request, the clown took the fourth step without saying anything.

The order of the person I was most looking forward to.

But this time I couldn’t find ‘interesting’ information?

“Honestly, I don’t think it’s a story that Saja will be interested in, but I’ll try it anyway.”

Unlike when talking about binding magic, the clown opened his mouth with the feeling that he would just skip the turn.

“At Noark, right before the blockade, we sent a few people up to the surface. The goal is to kill one explorer! Surprising, isn’t it?”

“Assassin…… Do you even know who the target is?”

“Well? I don’t know that far, but Phish!”

The fourth sequence ends with an elusive smile.

The clown didn’t even ask if it was fun.

Well, how would you know from his point of view? Of all the things I heard today, this is the most interesting.

‘An assassin sent from Noark…….’

There was a person who came to mind as soon as I heard it.

Amelia Lane Wales.

Could it be that he is one of the assassins sent up?

Looking at his abilities, I think he’ll be perfect.

‘Then the target you want to kill is Auril Gavis?’

Suddenly, I thought so, but somehow it didn’t seem like it.

It didn’t sound like a lie when I said I was looking for it personally.

Anyway, I’m going to think about this for a while.

“Now it’s my turn.”

The long-awaited fifth order has begun.

The main character of this turn is Crescent Moon who desperately desires the ‘Revival Stone’. Seeing that you asked if the promise was valid, you seemed quite confident.

What have you been preparing for?

“Everyone remember what I said earlier about the traces of the ‘Relic Stealer’?”

“Of course.”

The crescent moon quietly let go of the rhyme, and the rest of the masks nodded.

Exactly, except for the goblins.

“Yes? Relic Stealer?”

The goblins, who hadn’t attended the meeting at the time, tilted their heads, but no one cared.

“So what is it? Is this information related to the Noble Phantasm again?”

The fox said, not hiding her curiosity, and the crescent moon nodded.

And…

“The Noble Phantasm no longer exists.”

He spat out shocking words.

***

Genesis Treasure.

It is also the key to the last floor where the door to the abyss is located.

“…What do you mean by saying that the Genesis Noble Phantasm doesn’t exist? I don’t understand it at all.”

“Is this information reliable? You don’t believe it alone, do you?”

“Fisit, this is a bit of a shock.”

“Uh uh how could it go away?”

As all the players wanted to return, it only took a moment for the hall to be filled with chaos.

Just how much of an expected reaction was it?

Crescent Moon just continued to explain in a bitter voice.

“It would be nice if I was mistaken, too. But this is an unmistakable fact. Genesis Noble Phantasm doesn’t exist anywhere in this world.”

“Are you saying it was destroyed?”

“At least that’s how we came to the conclusion.”

“Ha, but it’s an indestructible item!!

” And

at that time,

shyaaaaa.

Green light emanated from the jewel embedded in the center of the Round Table.

This means that the above information is true.

.”

The deer antlers muttered in a broken voice, and after that there was silence for a while.

It was the crescent moon who spoke first.

“So what? Did you have fun?”

It was a very difficult question to answer.

I tried to say it was no fun, but…

‘No, how can you say no fun here?’

It was the crescent moon that kept her eyes fixed on me throughout the entire recitation of the information. As soon as she heard that story, she must have caught on to what I was startled to do

.

After a short thought, I made a decision.

It’s not a good choice to say no fun here.

So…

”

You

‘re good at

it.” ……”

Crescent Moon’s breathing became rough, as if

he thought the ‘revival stone

‘ was right in front of

him.

Aside from telling you about ‘stone’, Crescent Moon, who got what he wanted, won’t ask for information as eagerly as he does now.

Also,

it doesn’t match the image of the lion I created. The

‘Make the lion laugh’ corner, which I painstakingly prepared, cleared on the first try. ”

Immediately after completing the final check in my head,

I asked Crescent Moon,

“How did you find out?”

What surprised me was not that the Genesis Noble Phantasm disappeared, but as if it were something else.

To be precise…

“The Genesis Noble Phantasm disappeared. Few people know about it.” Unfortunately

, as if he already knew it. “……

! ”

Crescent Moon’s eyes widened

when he noticed the nuance. But it must have been difficult for him to notice that I was cheating.

. To the extent that it was passed on to me.

It wasn’t a very good situation for me.

“Fish sit…….”

Just looking at the awkwardly smiling clown.

This will affect all the members who asked for rice cake.

Yes, so in that sense .
