Episode 471 Pia (3)

Fox Goblin Clown Queen Antler Crescent Moon.

And new masks were added to the meeting, which had been maintained for a long time with a total of seven people, including me.

“Oh, are you the lion ball? Nice to meet you!”

A wolf mask with a smirk.

“…….”

A black mask without any characteristics.

“Hello…….”

Finally, the childish voice of the butterfly mask.

As I was looking around, the fox explained the situation without notice.

“Here, Mr. Wolf is someone who was active before Mr. Suja came.”

“Haha! After Master disappeared, I was busy and forgot about it, so I remembered it and came in.”

“I thought Phisht was dead long ago? Did he manage to survive?”

“Uh ha! The clown ball’s vicious words are still the same!”

Okay then, it has been confirmed that Wolf is a returning member.

With a wink, the fox also spoke of the other two.

“These two… I also met for the first time today.”

Yes, the black mask and the butterfly are newbies.

Since it was said by a fox with the longest round table experience, you can assume that it is certain.

The problem might be something else.

‘A newbie at this time……’

is also a bit suspicious.

That’s because the last newbie was a queen who became a member without an invitation with the help of GM.

In fact, the rookie who came to the round table after being invited by the ‘master’ did not exist for several years.

“Anyway, it’s fate that we met like this, so let’s say hello! I did it with that queen over there a long time ago… Huh?”

I glanced at the wolf’s outstretched hand as if to shake hands and went to my seat, ignoring it.

“Haha… Yes! How important is a greeting?”

The wolf goes back to his seat and sits down.

“…….”

Black Mask is still sitting in place, not showing much interest in this

When the mask met my eyes, I awkwardly cleared my throat and averted my gaze.

And…

coo-ung!

As if to announce that the entrance time was over, the round table door closed and a strange silence came. It must be said that the sudden appearance of new members was embarrassing for the existing members as well.

gulp.

The goblin’s swallowing sound was exceptionally loud in the hall.

“Now… then the investigator will come too. Why don’t we continue the conversation that was cut off earlier?”

In the end, the queen, who had been watching the situation, stepped forward.

“I understand Wolf-sama, but I was curious about how the other two got here. Butterfly-sama and um… what should we call them?”

The black mask gave a small answer to the queen’s words to start by arranging the titles.

“……black.”

It was a low tone, so I was a little confused, but it was a woman’s voice.

“It’s Black… Okay. So, how did Black-sama and Butterfly-sama get here? Did you meet the ‘Master’ by any chance?”

“Hehe…”

The Butterfly Mask laughed awkwardly at the Queen’s question, while the Black Mask said in a cold voice.

“Why do I have to answer that question?”

As the black mask carried the gun, the butterfly mask next to it also helped.

“Yes, Mr. Black is right. Asking about each other’s identity is against the rules here… isn’t it? Hehe.”

A butterfly that laughs hesitantly and speaks openly.

It didn’t even stop there.

“Wearing a queen mask doesn’t make you a real queen. Hehe.”

“………I beg your pardon?”

“Eh? Say nothing!”

At the innocent voice, the queen trembled, speechless.

It was a very impressive scene.

‘Yeah……. He’s not easy, unlike his first impression.’

But did the other characters receive that same first impression?

Suddenly, the clown started to laugh.

“Haha! Fuhahahaha! Oh, excuse me… This is a new interesting person!”

“Thank you…….”

“Fishit.”

“Hehe…”

Apparently, these two seemed to match quite well.

Is it that there are things that people who laugh lightly can communicate with each other? It was a world I didn’t want to understand.

“If I can give you one piece of advice, you just have to be careful what you say to that lion over there.”

“Hehe… is that so?”

“You don’t ask why?”

“That’s right… just looking at it doesn’t seem like it’s okay to touch it…?”

Said the butterfly mask and glanced at the queen.

It was as if I could hear unexplained behind-the-scenes talk.

For example, ‘I’m different from that person’.

“……under!”

The queen snorted as if she had interpreted it similarly to mine.

Of course, I didn’t even bother with the butterfly mask.

“So, when will it start…? I was looking forward to this day…”

Those words that seemed to hasten the start of the meeting drew the eyes of the existing members to me.

First of all, it is to check with my doctor.

Unidentified new recruits participated in the rally, are you okay?

Of course, my answer was fixed.

It’s not like I have the right to kick them out anyway.

“It’ll be fun.”

I’m actually curious too.

“Hahaha, it’s been a while, so I’m excited about something.”

“…….”

“Heh… Then who should we start with? It’s a bit burdensome at first…”

Who the hell are these guys.

***

A wolf from returning players.

A black mask with many secrets.

Butterflies of sound field.

All three of these members, whom I saw for the first time today, have many suspicious things.

Of course, compared to the unidentified black mask and butterfly, the former member wolf is better, but…

‘It takes a while to come back after a few years.’

Today’s comeback doesn’t seem like a mere coincidence.

Even though he’s returning after a few years, he doesn’t seem particularly interested in the master’s whereabouts.

Just like this.

“By the way, Wolf-nim says he’s been here for a long time and doesn’t ask anything about Master?”

The queen asking the wolf a question on my behalf, as if she was having similar thoughts.

“Haha, isn’t he doing well wherever he is?”

“Hmm, is that so?”

“…Rather than that, why don’t we decide in order? Ah, by the way, I don’t care if it’s not the first one.”

Ha really, why are you so suspicious?

Just looking at it, it seems that the old man Auril Gavis, who also acted as the Master of the Round Table, sent someone to do some trick.

At least one if not all three.

‘The most likely would be a black mask and a butterfly.’

First of all, there are few new member routes themselves.

Either enter with the authority of the GM like a queen. Or, like me, come in with an old invitation code.

In fact, there are only these two, but Auril Gavis, who was the Master of the Round Table, must still have several codes.

‘There is a possibility that the Queen secretly sent her person in and pretended not to know.’

All are still possibilities.

That’s why…….

“Just like tradition, let’s start with the wolf next to the lion, right? Phisht.”

You have to watch it first.

Until I made a mistake and spilled a clue.

“Tradition? What does that mean? There was no such thing before—.”

“Wolf changed a lot while you were gone. If you don’t like something, just leave?”

The wolf expressed disapproval at the clown’s strong words.

“Kuheumm…….”

“Seeing that I can’t go out, I don’t think I just accidentally came in once? Did you hear about this place somewhere?”

At first glance, it seems that the clown is trying to dig up clues by scratching it gently…

“Haha, these are faces I haven’t seen in a long time, so I’ll use them if I leave already. It’s not particularly difficult to be the first step. If the rules change while you’re gone from cancer, you have to follow them. ”

The wolf started his turn with a hearty laugh.

“Then let me do it first.”

Then what should I do…….

The wolf, who seemed to be worried about losing his luck, finally opened his mouth.

“Actually, the reason I came back to this place is because I recently learned something surprising.

“Mister Wolf is still very talkative?”

When the clown cut off his words and directed his attention to the main topic, the wolf laughed awkwardly, cleared his throat, lowered his voice, and spoke briefly.

“The Master of the Round Table is Aurl Gavis.”

A strange silence immediately fell over the round table.

It was for a simple reason.

“Isn’t it surprising? The person who gathered us here and gave us this and that knowledge is the same person who made [Dungeons and Stones]—”

That’s the information the Queen told you last month.

“…uh?”

The wolf flinched in panic as soon as the red light came on the jewel.

“Why is this…”

“Why is this? It means that the majority of the information is known. Oh, it’s been a while since I forgot that too?”

“…….”

“Why don’t you take out something fun instead of that kind of trivial information?”

It was a little funny to see the clown who was very surprised to hear that information last month, but…….

Thanks to you, one thing was confirmed.

The Wolf did not know the details of the situation inside the Round Table.

If that was the case, there would be no way I would have brought out the information from last month.

This can also be interpreted as meaning that there is no relationship with the existing members.

There is a possibility that this may have been an intentional action.

“Huh… then I’ll try again.”

The wolf sighed, then spit out the information again.

“It is the royal family who summoned the player into this world, and Auril Gavis’ goal is to help the player escape this world.”

After a brief pause, the wolf continued as if he had waited for the green light to turn on.

“Now how about this?”

No one answered right away.

It was worth it.

Not to mention that this guy openly hints that he has a relationship with Aurl Gavis.

“…Is it certain information that the royal family is behind it?”

It was a shocking story.

There were a lot of rumors among players, but there was no story that the person who summoned us was the royal family.

There is no ‘motivation’ in the royal family.

But…

“Why the hell did the royal family summon us and punish us as evil spirits? Doesn’t this make sense?”

At the question of the deer antlers, the wolf drew a straight line.

“I can’t go into details, but you can trust me. It’s more reliable information than anything else.”

“You’re saying it as if you’ve heard it directly from the king, Fisit?”

The clown tried it out, but to no avail.

“Oh, if you’re curious about that, I’ll take it out on the next wheel.”

“…….”

“Whoops, so now it’s the next turn?”

Next it was the fox who brought out information about the war.

It didn’t really come into my ears.

Not only was it something I already knew from the beginning…

‘The royal family is behind us…?’

I was still thinking about this.

No, should I say that he was contemplating the authenticity of the words?

‘What this bastard said… How far can you trust me?’

Of course, the jewel emitted a green light.

However, there is a point that it is difficult to accept that statement as the truth.

Because there is a hole in the round table system.

If the person speaking the word believes it to be ‘truth’, the jewel emits a green light.

That’s what it means.

‘There is a possibility that the information is incorrect.’

Then the question moves on to the next one.

How did the wolf come to believe the false information to be true?

Actually, this is not so important.

‘What purpose did the wolf bring out that information from the Round Table?’

The answer lies in the information.

‘Because I wanted the player’s hatred to be directed at the royal family.’

The one who benefits the most from this information.

‘Auril Gavis gave the wolf wrong information and sent the wolf here.’

If I said …… would it be an absurd leap?

I don’t know, but I cleared my mind and focused on the conversation.

“…Now it’s your turn.”

Before I knew it, the turn of the fox goblin, the crescent moon, and the antlers had ended, and the turn of the newcomers had begun.

“Mr. Black.”

I mean, he’s suspicious too.

***

“There are ways to return to Earth other than opening the door to the abyss.”

The black mask spat out a short word and received the green light. As the content was the content, many members were in a frenzy and asked various questions, but the black mask remained silent.

‘…It’s a way to return to Earth.’

There was only one predictable way.

‘I’m guessing you’re referring to dimension magic…?’

I learned about dimension magic at a round table I visited 20 years ago. The Annihilator was researching dimensional magic to return to his hometown, and it seemed that he had actually achieved some results.

Maybe that magic was the reason Baekho Lee became friends with the Annihilator.

Anyway, the important thing is the other part.

‘A black mask… He could be a spy sent by Lee Baek-ho?’

There are several grounds for suspicion.

First of all, Lee Baek-ho would know ‘Dimensional Magic’, and it wouldn’t be strange to say that he had one more than the invitation code he gave me.

‘…Above all, the motive is quite certain. Because he has a lot of questions about me.’

“…then it’s your turn, Queen? Phisht.”

The queen, who brought out high-level information as if competing with a clown, brought out general information related to politics to see if she was wary of unfamiliar members.

It was interesting information, but it was obvious that he was trying to skip the turn.

“…Heh, it’s me now?”

The order of the butterfly mask that came like that.

Nabi, as if she had thought of something in advance, coolly talked about the information without wasting time.

“In the royal family. Dimensional collapse can be deliberately caused.”

Haha, it seems that newcomers spit out more impactful information than existing members.

“…That means the rumors were true.”

Everyone looked surprised, but as before, no member inquired about the authenticity or source.

Everyone thinks that those words are true, and there are two previous examples.

Will you answer me if I ask you?

“Fisit, then that’s me.”

Soon, the last turn of the clown began his turn.

“Fisit A while ago, Noark started attacking the 9th floor in earnest.”

At least, rare information that builds up the face of existing members.

Of course, I received a pass decision without objection, and eyes naturally focused on me.

“Well then…”

Now it’s my turn, right?

In fact, I have already decided what to say during the turn.

That’s why…….

[How can I feel comfortable with myself. Of course it’s sad I feel a sense of responsibility. I will probably live with this feeling for the rest of my life and atone for it.]

After recalling what Auril Gavis said to me that day, I raised my emotions.

Tuk-tuk.

He fixed his eyes on the wolf and opened his mouth.

Whether or not the real mastermind who summoned the player is Wang.

With all my heart, according to what I believe.

“Auril Gavis is the enemy of the players.”

i said

Shaaaaaa –

As if to prove my faith, the jewel gave off a green light.

The reaction was instantaneous.

“…Do you have a solid basis for what you just said, Master Lion?”

The wolf cautiously tackled.

Of course, there was no reason to worry.

What position have I built here in your absence?

“…It must be the words of Mr. Phisht.”

As long as the promised green light is turned on.

Dozens of evidence and documents will be needed to refute my words.
