Chapter 245

Episode 245 Turning Point (5)

Ghost Master.

A manager with the authority to operate the community, and at the same time considered a legendary figure among players.

“You’re right, GM.”

For a moment, I feel short of breath and choke.

‘Hans I is the GM…?’

Confusing.

If that’s true, why did a big guy the size of a GM approach me behind the scenes?

You’re famous these days, just to see your face?

‘No way.’

The GM suspected me of being a ‘player’.

So, during the banquet, he approached and scooped me up, and when that wasn’t enough, he even followed me.

Again, this is a more plausible hypothesis.

Even if it’s not that sweet to me.

‘Then, that gust of wind magic must have been used by him.’

Once the hypothesis is established, the question naturally arises.

While I was following, the carriage suddenly exploded and the smoke bomb exploded, blocking my view, so I must have wondered if I would survive.

‘I’ll think about this more later.’

I come back to the most important topic.

A man who falls from the sky, calls Hans I the GM, and spreads a force that makes even the knights tremble.

What the heck is this guy—

“Quickly unleash Ben, or you’ll really end up here.”

……huh?

‘Free Ben?’

Unknowingly, goose bumps ran down my spine.

It was for a simple reason.

There is only one person I know who would make such a request to a GM.

Proud Daehan.

‘Lee Baek-ho.’

Of course, there must be a possibility that it is not.

Who knows if the GM hit Ben with one or two?

It is only natural for someone to come back with a grudge and use it like that.

But…

“Daddy, can’t you hear me?”

For some reason, I keep seeing Baekho.

‘……Is it really him?’

While thinking about that, I carved that guy’s impression into my head once more.

‘He’s around 170 in height.’

He was dressed in a neat suit with no equipment, and unless he was wearing a disguise, he was a human.

The skin color is white and there are no visible scars.

Platinum blonde hair in a pomade style.

Anyone can see that he has good-looking features, but perhaps because of his unique eyes, he exudes an aura closer to that of a bad boy than a scion —

“Mr. Yandel.”

As I was observing him, one of the knights came up to me and whispered.

“You must never run away.”

“……What are you talking about?”

“I’m not the kind of person who can do that.”

A voice with a hint of tension.

Could it be that he knows who he is?

“Who is that man?”

I hurriedly vomited my doubts.

And…

“The author is—”

Just as the knight was about to reply.

“Ah, were you there too?”

His gaze shifts to us.

Ha, I said it at the level of a real whisper, but did you hear it on that street?

“Bjorn Yandel.”

He seemed to know who I was, seeing as he uttered my name correctly.

Wasn’t it just that you didn’t know that much?

“I heard you killed two of them this time? That’s only in the first year.”

The guy holding onto Hans I’s neck tightly looks at me and expresses curiosity.

It was as if he found something interesting by accident.

“I’m asking just in case…”

He asked me soon after.

“Are you a player?”

Hey, somehow, from the moment you knew my name, you felt uneasy.

This kind of premonition never goes wrong.

I had only one answer.

“…… It must have been an evil spirit.”

It’s not that you don’t know what you’re talking about, it’s that you draw a line by calling your opponent ‘evil spirit’.

Whether this guy is Lee Baek-ho or not, it doesn’t matter.

So, with so many people watching, what else can you say?

“Hmm, that’s weird. Even though you’ve made a name for yourself, I don’t think the GM is interested.”

He muttered quietly, ‘Unless you’re a player…’ and then narrowed his eyes.

And…

“Hey.”

His mouth was smiling, but he spoke in a voice that showed no emotion.

“Answer only yes or no.”

“Don’t answer… coke!”

The knight who was giving me some advice was hit in the stomach by something invisible and flew away.

It was obvious without asking who did it.

“Ah, are you worried about too many people? Don’t worry. If you’re a player, I’ll kill them all and get rid of them. Cancer, I can give you that much service to answer my questions.”

He smiles and forces me to choose again.

“Right no.”

I barely endured the answer that it was not.

Because the question itself was questionable.

Asking the same question with only yes or no answers? Doesn’t it seem like he has the ability to discern the truth?

‘There are actually such integers.’

Since there is no information, it would be wise to be careful.

“If you don’t like it, just say no. Just one word? I’m really curious.”

The more he obsessed over the ‘answer’, the more his doubts grew.

So, I have only one choice to make.

“The question starts with me.”

Instead of just being silent, change the subject.

With a nuance as if he did not want to hand over the initiative of the conversation to the enemy.

“Are you, demon, also one of the assassins?”

He throws out what a barbarian who doesn’t even know what a GM would say.

Whether it’s the knight or the guy, my silence will leave both sides questionable.

Of course, this guy wasn’t too bad.

“You should have only answered yes or no?”

The moment he speaks, the air is weighted. Sёarᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

A body that has hardened as if it had met its natural enemy.

‘Could I live…?’

I don’t understand at all.

Is it really possible to emit such a concentration of murder outside the community, not even within the community?

I don’t know.

Right now, only one thing is certain.

“Hey, are you holding up well?”

He is like a tyrant.

A tyrant who is capricious and yet achieves whatever he wants regardless of time and place.

“Will you answer soon?”

hair turns white

Was this how the clown felt at the round table then?

Breathing stops, and the eyes blur as if the blood vessels leading to the brain are blocked.

I had a sudden thought.

‘……What will happen if I answer yes?’

I couldn’t stop even though I knew it was a vain hope that dwells in my weak mind.

‘If he really is Lee Baek-ho… can’t he just reveal his identity?’

Maybe that side will help me.

First of all, aren’t they of the same Korean background?

If the image you showed in the community is a real bastard’s personality, they might treat you like a real older brother.

“Yes, maybe……”

Depending on my answer, there may be a future where Lee Baek-ho grows stronger and escapes this world together.

But the moment I thought of that future.

“… ..Bjorn!”

I suddenly came to my senses.

There were several reasons.

First of all, I’m still not sure if it

was Lee Baek-ho. Also, the moment I reveal my identity, hundreds of civilians here will turn into speechless corpses.

No, to be exact… ….

“Misha?”

When I checked the direction from which the sound came from, I saw Misha running away in a hurry.

Actually, this

place was near the house. He must have come to visit as soon as he heard the commotion.

But the situation is not good.

“Oh, your girlfriend?”

The man looked at Misha and smiled.

He looked as if he had a good weakness. Temporarily, the pressure on his body disappeared and his

body was able to move freely.

Therefore…

Tadat. An act to

protect

Misha from a possible surprise attack. ”

The enemy cats are

.”

For some reason, towards Misha instead of me.

“Are you the enemy cat, are you a player?”

“Huh? Ph Freya?”

“Is it a demon?”

“Ah ah, isn’t it…?”

Misha, who was suddenly told, replied in embarrassment, and he nodded.

” It’s true.”

. Come behind me, Misha.”

I quickly hid Misha behind my

back

. Why don’t you answer?”

A cold sweat started to flow from my back.

If you answer, you’ll find out that you’re lying.

If you don’t answer, you’ll look suspicious. “Is there

any reason the enemy will do what he wants?”

“Oh, that’s right,”

he

nodded his head as if he understood, then asked playfully,

” But

you really want to become my enemy?”

Aren’t your eyes smiling?

“If you don’t answer, I’ll kill the enemy

cat

?

”

“What should I do?” [

See you next time.]

I tried to think hard but couldn’t come up with an appropriate answer.

That was the moment.

[……Baekho-san.] ”

Huh ?”

A light burst from

Hans

.

It didn’t take long.

There is only one place for a farmhouse like this.

The Gnome Tree in Lapdonia’s District 6.

“Oh, that’s really annoying. That bastard will never come out of the tower first…”

Lee Baek-ho readily admitted that he had missed him.

If he ran right away anyway, no one would be left there.

It was an obvious mistake on his part.

The wizard . As much as Ini was using teleport, he was wary of escaping. That’s why I grabbed her by the neck so she couldn’t even sing.

But what about videotape teleportation?

And that’s none other than yourself?

“Yeah, you’re doing it too, right?”

I regretted a little what it would have been like if I hadn’t underestimated the other person, but he quickly brushed it off.

Isn’t that what happened already?

Regrets over the past don’t suit him.

It wasn’t that there was no income at all.

I found out that the bastard is a GM.

‘All I have left is time, so I’ll just have to run around a bit more.’

Lee Baek-ho scratched his head and soon turned his attention elsewhere.

“In the end, I didn’t get an answer until the end.”

Bjorn Yandel.

A barbarian I met by chance while chasing the GM.

“……What happened?”

Lee Baek-ho stopped worrying about whether the barbarian was a player or not.

Not only was it more likely that it wasn’t going to be the case, but…

the interest in the barbarian had already cooled.

Now, even as a real player, it didn’t seem like they would be particularly interested.

He’s satisfied with this world, and NPCs and suckers aren’t helping him with his plans.

dump.

Soon after, Lee Baek-ho lay down on the floor.

Then, using the [Spatial Interference] skill, he picked a grape hanging from a tree and put it in his mouth.

“Of course, grapes are naturally produced.”

The air is good and there are many delicious things.

Anyway, even the GM won’t be able to come out of the mage tower for a while.

‘It’s too cumbersome to go all the way to Bifron.’

It seemed okay to stay here for a while.

***

Two days have passed since it happened.

From conferring titles to assassins to GMs to Lee Baek-ho.

A lot happened in just one day, and the past two days were the time to sort things out.

Let’s start with the ‘assassin’…

[We’ll take them in for interrogation.]

The captured assassins were escorted to Mozlan.

According to the news from the article today, did you receive a favor from someone whose identity is unknown?

By the way, it is said that the explosives that killed the three knights were also given by that ‘someone’…

[They said that the order they received was to kill Yandel-nim and take the bestowed essence.]

There were quite a few suspicious things.

Jeongsu, I think so.

The box containing the test tubes must have been very sturdy.

It was possible enough to kill me and take me by surprise.

But…

[What if I ate it before that?]

[We didn’t understand that either.]

The contractor even said that they put a large reward on my neck.

Jeongsu meant that it was just an excuse.

Or else there’s no reason to bet on killing me.

So, Mozlan’s side guessed that the contractor would be Noark.

At least until yesterday.

[…Then it’s likely one of the larger clans, right?]

Mozlan concluded that the culprit was one of the larger clans. If it had been Noark’s side, would they have sent more reliable guys?

It is said that this kind of ‘request’ is not suitable.

Above all, they had enough motivation.

[yes. It was probably an ulterior motive to lay the blame on our royal family after harming Yandel. In fact, such tricks were found several times in some taverns that night.]

It was an acceptable guess, but there were questions.

So what did the clown say?

Did you say that because you obtained this information beforehand?

‘Well, even then, I said that the assassin would go. I didn’t say that it was sent from Noark’s side…….’

He might have judged that there would be nothing to lose if he told me in advance since he wasn’t the assassin sent by them anyway.

‘…No, maybe the real thing hasn’t even come yet?’

For some reason, a sense of wonder comes over me.

Huh, why do I have to live so trembling in the city?

Anyway, enough with the assassin, and then.

‘GM.’

As a result, GM was not Hans I.

[The Hans Ifrea I saw that day must have been someone in disguise.]

When they attacked the house, the real Hans Ifrea was passed out.

Just in case, I tried to investigate magic, but the real Hans I didn’t have a handful of magic talent.

Simply put, someone borrowed his identity.

‘It sucks.’

That’s the part I can’t help but regret.

I wondered if this could have revealed the identity of the GM.

‘Still, it’s not like there wasn’t any income.’

A few consolations.

First of all, I found out that the GM was suspicious of me as a player.

At least it gave me time to prepare.

‘Since you saw that I didn’t answer, your doubts must have deepened. It’s likely to be aimed at when the next community opens.’

Fortunately, there is a bar to guess this part.

So, I came up with a way to deal with it.

Anyway, next on this.

‘Lee Baek-ho.’

First of all, that guy was Lee Baek-ho.

That’s because GM said so at the end.

[……Mr. Baekho. See you later.]

In the situation where Mogaji was captured, these were words he said using magic, not nurturing.

Well, I don’t think it means much.

[He is…… I’m sorry. I cannot tell you with my authority.] I

later asked the knight who Lee Baek-ho was, but only such an answer came back.

Is this why life is all about timing?

If Lee Baek-ho hadn’t stopped talking at that time, I think he would have said it.

‘As expected, he’s a dangerous guy…….’

Even if he meets Lee Baek-ho again later, it won’t be as close as he was back then.

Should I have known that their personalities are completely different?

I didn’t think that the innocent look he showed in the community would be his true self, but it’s too much.

‘It was a real mess itself…….’

Anyway, Lee Baek-ho also finished here and went on to the next.

‘Misha.’

In fact, this is the most troublesome and the part that takes my breath away.

“Bjorn really, don’t think it’s strange and listen?”

“…….”

“You don’t suddenly disappear somewhere? That’s right…?”

Misha started looking at me anxiously.
