Episode 561 Destination (1)
The goddess gave an oracle in the form of a precognitive dream.
It said that I would die in the near future. By the exploration force who wanted to believe that too.
pounding-!
The heart of the warrior who sensed the crisis trembled greatly.
However, I calmly confirmed this.
“Are you sure?”
“…yes?”
“It means that you have confirmed that I am dying. in that dream.”
In modern media, it’s like a cliché.
Why are there so many cases like that?
It’s like filming a scene where you pretend to be shot dead, then waking up saying you’re actually wearing a bulletproof vest and heading for a happy ending.
“I do not know.”
In a situation where a definite answer was more important than anything else, the guy cautiously continued.
“Even though I sprayed the amman potion on the baron with his eyes closed, the potion didn’t react.”
The potion didn’t work…
Write it. This is a bit difficult.
‘Am I… really dying…?’ S~eaʀᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
To be honest, I don’t feel it at all.
It was just complicated in my head.
‘What should I do?’
It was the first method that came to mind.
Why don’t we cheat on this guy the way we cheated on Amelia’s sister?
But here, too, there were doubts.
‘If it’s a prophecy that can be circumvented like that… why did I show it as an oracle?’
No, why did that happen in the first place?
Wasn’t the purpose of the Exploration Army to save me and go back?
Ah, what kind of lightning has this been since morning?
“…Baron!”
As I was diligently rolling my head, he shook my body urgently.
“Didn’t you hear? It’s not the time to be like this. You must run away.”
“Are you running away…?”
“The Goddess also said. This is not a recorded fate. It is up to us what kind of future we face.”
Interpreted, it means a future that can be avoided depending on whether you make an effort or not…
“You… why are you saying that now…?”
“uh…? Is that what you mean…?”
You should have said this first.
I feel like I know why he always gets bullied by other people.
‘Anyway, it’s not a recorded fate, so I’m talking about the record stone…’
I quickly finished judging the situation.
Leatlas is one of the three gods representing this world. And as much as such a being said, it must be true that it can change the future.
When this happens, things change.
‘Well, it wasn’t as big a deal as I thought.’
Should I say that the red light was turned on in ‘Fate Seeker’?
You know that negative events happen, but if they’re the kind that you can change, you can get through them.
So…
“Thank you for letting me know. But I will stay here.”
Farab’s advice to flee immediately was politely declined.
It was a very simple reason.
“I will take care of this problem, so you just talk. Every detail of what you saw in your dream.”
I’ve never run away and things haven’t worked out.
***
As soon as I went back to the place where my colleagues were, Amelia started talking to me.
“You look pretty serious. Was it an important conversation?”
“Nothing. It wasn’t a big deal.”
Amelia didn’t ask any more about the rough words.
He just kept his mouth shut and glared at me for a moment before turning his head away.
“….”
…Are you mad?
It was a consideration not to worry about it until it was clearly organized in my head.
Inevitably, I also mentioned this.
Not like a barbarian, I turned it around a bit.
“Emily, what would you do if the commander put me in danger of being executed?”
“…?”
Amelia, who at first looked at her as if she was talking nonsense, suddenly gritted her teeth.
“They… were they plotting something like that?”
“That is not yet certain. So what’s the answer?”
To my question, Amelia answered as if asking for something obvious.
“I will definitely stop. Even if I risk everything.”
“There are over a hundred people over there?”
“Didn’t I tell you? I will stop everything even on foot.”
In Amelia’s voice, there was even a strong determination.
‘Yes, this kind of answer is coming back…’
I was grateful for that heart, but my appetite was bitter.
In the end, this problem is not the end after one of me dies.
If that happens, everyone around me gets caught up in it.
‘…Did I just run away?’
I suddenly thought of that, but I tried to shake off my weak heart.
There was a possibility that I did something like that for no reason and then things got weirder.
‘Let’s observe the situation for a moment. There is still time before that happens.’
For reference, there are two grounds for determining that there is time.
I heard every detail of what I saw in my dream from Pharab.
1. The place was an island.
If you listen to the description, it sounds like a village chief island.
Since we haven’t reached the island yet, that won’t happen.
2. It wasn’t during the rainy season.
To put it simply, safety was guaranteed for the next few days…
3. For some reason, Erwen’s hair was bobbed.
In other words, the deadline can be known in advance.
Therefore, it would not be too late to run away after thinking enough about it.
“Get on board!”
After that, according to the expedition team’s schedule, they left Library Island and boarded the ship.
For reference, our temporary crew of 4 boarded three warships, not our usual ship.
It’s much better this way to survive the rainy season in full swing.
‘It’s been 3 days now, so it’s really good.’
Monsters literally rained down from the sky.
Of course, there was no damage to the ship because dozens of wizards were infusing magic into the defensive magic circle imprinted on the ship itself.
Quaang-! Kwajik-! cooong!
The monsters colliding with the barrier and falling into the sea, and the blood of the monsters flowing over the barrier.
“Surprisingly, it’s not that difficult. Evost! What is the horsepower consumption per hour? Is it as expected?”
“yes! Nothing is wrong now!”
The three ships began to make their way through the silvery current in earnest.
Most of the monsters were encased in barriers and fell into the sea, but not all of them.
In the case of sea monsters, they followed them tenaciously, and in the case of flying monsters, they interfered with navigation in the air.
[Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh-!]
Even hyprama-guns appeared under the water and grabbed their stomachs.
“It’s Mobilous!”
There was also a case where a second-class marine monster classified as super-large appeared.
None of it was a big problem.
Warships are ships that are built to fight.
Pew-! Pew-! Pew-!
Dozens of magic cannons equipped on the ship pierce the road with continuous explosions.
In addition, the military magic engineering propulsion device, which is different from the one on our ship, rotates at full power throughout and raises the ship’s speed.
“Imaize Nula Kinney Pythia!”
Wizards pour out attack magic using the magic circle engraved on the ship itself.
and in the meantime.
Kagak! Kagak! Kaga gagak-!
In order to pass the frozen sea, the ice-breaking device attached to the lower part of the front rotates and grinds away the miscellaneous mobs blocking the way.
‘…how much do you want to do with a ship like this?’
It was on a different level from the warships I rode on expeditions to the Dark Continent in the past.
Should I say that the purpose of the ship was different in the first place?
At that time, if it was a ship to transport as many people as possible, this ship was thoroughly built for naval combat.
6 hours, 12 hours, 18 hours…
It was a little more than a day since I left the library island.
“Commander! I see my destination!”
The destination has appeared.
***
Day 118 after entering the Labyrinth.
We really arrived at Chonjang Island through the middle of the rainy season.
without a single victim.
Therefore, from now on, we had one concern.
“What are you going to do now, Count St. Red? Are you going to get off the ship and enter the island?”
There are still three days left until the rainy season ends.
Well, now that the rainy season has peaked, it seems that the frequency of monsters appearing has decreased…
“No, I’ll wait here until right before the rainy season ends.”
Jerome chose to be on the boat.
After experiencing the rainy season himself, he seemed to have decided that it was very dangerous to go out on the ground like this.
I don’t believe it when real people say it.
“So, wouldn’t it have been nice if the rainy season had ended as I said?”
“There is no promise how long the journey here will last, isn’t it? If one day you have to make it through the rainy season, I decided it was best to experience it when you are ready.”
Well then, I had nothing to say.
Having experienced it firsthand, you will be able to make the most accurate judgment even in an emergency.
“Besides, one of our exploration force’s missions is to investigate this layer. After you have as much experience as possible, you must go back and deliver this record to the royal family. Everything, even the anomaly that occurred after the rainy season.”
Even if I say that, it seems like a pointless hardship from my point of view, but the soldier’s point of view is different. In fact, there is even a separate article in charge of filming during the battle.
‘Then, it can be said that the boat will hold out until the end of the rainy season…’
Thanks to Erwen, Erwen became important.
Even if the rainy season is over, as long as her hair is intact, her precognitive dream won’t come true.
“Erwen, do you plan to cut your hair short?”
“yes? I like it now… But if you like it…”
“What are you talking about! I like long hair! Never even think about cutting! Got it!”
“yes…? Ah yes! I will never cut it!!!”
Okay, now that it’s like this, there won’t be any voluntarily getting a haircut….
Even if all of my hair burns and goes bald, I’ll have to keep her hair.
While making such a resolution, Einar shouted.
“oh! Bjorn, were you that way!”
what is that
I was dumbfounded and laughed it off, but for some reason Amelia is looking at me with meaningful eyes.
“Hmm, I thought Yandel’s taste was that way.”
…Do I have to explain this?
Unexpectedly, Raven’s eyes met, and he cleared his throat and began to twirl the curly hair that reached his chest with his index finger.
“Hmmmm…!”
ah i don’t know
just think about it It’s not important either.
I still have a lot to think about, but I don’t want to waste my energy on things like this.
“I’m going to sleep for a while, so don’t touch me until the shift order comes down.”
Therefore, in order not to be disturbed, I went into the cabin, lay down on the bed, closed my eyes, and organized my thoughts.
‘Looking at it, it doesn’t look like he came with an order to kill me
.
‘I think the village chief might be involved, but…’
Although there was no definite basis, the first thing I thought of was that.
Even so, the village chief has suspicions.
That kind of suspicion that maybe there might be a means to take someone else’s body like a demon.
‘If you really have that ability… It’s something that can happen.’
Even in this case, there are two versions.
When Commander Jerome St. Red loses his body.
And…
‘In case I’m taken away.’
Both situations can explain the execution of me by the Expeditionary Force.
So, there is only one important thing going forward.
‘Then how can I prevent that situation?’
First of all, on the premise that the hypothesis so far is correct, I tried hard to devise countermeasures.
‘Since Erwen’s hair was bobbed…’
How about shaving it off right now?
Then, wouldn’t that scene come true?
‘…No way.’
Isn’t it a situation where you heard that you can change the future with the mouth of a goddess anyway?
something.
Yeah, I don’t know if there’s something…
a bigger change.
Flash-!
Suddenly, it felt like lightning flashed in my head.
Maybe I was thinking too complicated.
‘Because it was Jerome St. Red who killed me in the precognitive dream the goblin saw…’
Wouldn’t everything be solved by just getting rid of him?
