Chapter 292 – 292. Final Battle (2)
Of course, the gathered members opened their eyes wide and showed surprised expressions at my words.
“Ho, the Demon King of Chaos is resurrected!?”
“What on earth does that mean? Explain it properly!”
“Sihan, Sihan! Is it related to that ability?”
“That’s right, Lucas.”
Lucas considered my quest to be an ability bestowed by the Goddess of Creation and considered it important, so he immediately understood what I meant.
“A quest has been given. It is a quest to kill the resurrected Demon Lord of Chaos.”
“”… !””
In the past month, I have told all the members here about my abilities at a level they can understand, so they were all able to accept what I said.
“It’s impossible for the Demon King of Chaos to come so suddenly…”
“No, if you think about it, it’s not sudden.”
“What do you mean, Adelia?”
Adelia said in response to Yeonhwa’s question.
“We have already stopped the Chaos Church’s tricks in four countries. Even the Demon Lord of Chaos would not have taken this lightly.”
If you say it that way, it’s not like you don’t understand it.
If it were just a game, they would have held on until the end even if their power collapsed one after another before the final boss appeared, but realistically speaking, it would be better to gather their souls and attack them before everyone is defeated.
In other words, the Demon Lord of Chaos is also anxious in his own way.
What I am uneasy about here is the specifications of the Demon Lord of Chaos.
If it comes with the exact specifications of the game, there is really no answer.
No, I have a penetration skill, so I may be able to counter it in my own way, but there is no guarantee that I can win overwhelmingly.
‘I hope this will reward the efforts I’ve made so far.’
An element called the Tomb of Chaos that was not present in the game.
I can only hope that by destroying it, the power of the Demon King of Chaos has been greatly reduced.
“Sihan, do you have any other information other than the resurrection of the Demon King of Chaos? Where and when he will be resurrected.”
I answered Gyeonghu’s question right away.
Because this much can be said to be in the contents of the quest.
“The residence of the Demon Lord of Chaos will be fully revealed tomorrow.”
He raised his index finger and pointed upward.
“The skies above Lucedia. Opening up space in the sky.”
According to the game setting, the Demon Lord of Chaos was sealed and confined in another dimension, and when he appeared, he appeared along with a large chunk of land in the sky far away from Lucedia Academy.
“The sky? Well, then what should we do? Is there a way to get there…”
There is nothing to worry about.
“I plan to borrow the power of holy water. Since it is about the Demon Lord of Chaos, I will gladly accept it.”
“Ah! I can ride on Karyuda-sama’s back!”
“That’s right, Karyuda is so big!”
In the game, there was a small option to decide which castle to ride, but if multiple people want to travel, Karyuda would be the best.
And what happens when the Demon King of Chaos is resurrected is not just the appearance of land in the sky.
“According to what is described in the quest, when that place appears, the monsters everywhere will turn ferocious. It may not be as strong as the monster that went on a rampage, but… You will need to be prepared.”
“This is an issue that needs to be dealt with immediately.”
“Then it would be best for each of us to go back and report this first.”
“What about other countries?”
“No, it would be much better to spread the word throughout the academy. Then not only teachers but also cadets from other countries will move.”
“Good idea.”
When each person is coming up with a plan.
I exhaled in my heart.
The final battle that came suddenly.
Before conveying the news I just announced to the Academy, there is one more thing I would like to tell everyone,
There will be enough time to announce that.
“Okay, then let’s give this information to the Academy first. But before that, would you please go to Valendia with us?”
“Is it Valendia?”
“What, is there anything to buy at Cats Store?”
“No, I have something to reveal in Sasha’s presence.”
“Something to reveal? Captain! What is that?”
“It’s about my secret… That I haven’t told everyone yet.”
◈
When we moved to Cats Store, Sasha was very embarrassed and greeted us.
“Oh, oh, oh, brother! The sky! The sky has become strange!”
“I know. We need to talk about that too, so let’s go to the office.”
Sasha, seeing my serious expression, calmed down and nodded.
“Okay.”
First, everyone went to Sasha’s office.
At the office, I first briefly talked to Sasha about what was happening and what we were planning to do in the future.
“Ho, the Demon King of Chaos is really trying to be resurrected… Oh, brother! You’ll be okay, right?”
“I’m going to do my best to be okay. And… From now on, I want to reveal my secret to the people here, because they believe I’m the most trustworthy person.”
“Your brother’s secret?”
“Yes, Sasha, she came here because she wanted you to hear it too.”
After making up my mind, I told everyone.
Aside from the quest, it’s basically the fact that I’m hiding from everyone.
“I… Am not from this world.”
“”… !””
Everyone looked surprised except for Maika, who tilted her head.
“You’re not from this world?”
“Oppa?”
“What does that mean?”
“Literally. I was not born in this world in the first place. I am a person who lived in a world other than this one.”
There is no need or time to go into too much detail.
I continued, thinking of what I wanted to say briefly and at a level that everyone could understand.
“It’s a world quite different from this one. And I was an ordinary person living in that world. And there I… Knew you.”
“You knew about us?”
“This is a prediction, but I think the Goddess of Creation may have intervened in our world. In the world I live in, I came to know this world as a game.”
“A game?”
“Artsval, there will be explanations and worldviews for each card in Yugije, right?”
“Of course! Yu Hee-je’s worldview is vast!”
“Like that, I knew about this world as a type of game. It was a popular game. And while I was playing the game, I suddenly entered this world and gained a quest-like ability.”
“In other words… Sihan knew who we were like Yu Hee-je’s cards?”
“I knew at least what kind of personality he had. However, there were people like Mr. Viola and Lord Kyung-hu that I didn’t know. You can think of it as knowing the academy’s cadets or important people in each country.”
“Then the reason why my brother had my parents’ mementos was…”
“I got the memento by chance while hunting down a bandit. Of course, I knew what the memento meant to you, Shasha. Anyway, the first quest I received when I came to this world was to defeat the Demon Lord of Chaos. . The reward was that my wish would come true.”
“That’s right!”
Lucas’ eyes lit up, and he looked at me with respect and awe.
“It really means that Mr. Shihan is an apostle who came to this world from the Goddess of Creation!”
“Hmm… Honestly, I don’t really feel it, but I think it probably is.”
“Ahh! To become Mr. Shihan’s colleague! And to fight against the Demon Lord of Chaos like an apostle of the Goddess of Creation! I’m so happy!”
Perhaps because he was a faithful believer, Lucas was so happy that he even shed tears.
“Oh! Sado! But is it okay to buy it?”
“Myka, there is no need to worry about the word apostle. Just think of it as a captain as usual.”
“Yes! Captain!”
Maika understood what she said right away, and she was very easy to deal with.
“Uh, um… Mr. Sihan?”
“Why are you doing this, Mr. Viola?”
“Wasn’t it difficult? When I heard the story, you said you came to this world without any warning.”
“Of course, I was very confused mentally. If we take Atsuval as an example…”
“Why are you suddenly using me as an example?”
She ignored Atsubal’s words and continued.
“I suddenly entered the world of Yu Hee-je without knowing the meaning of the story, and a phrase telling me to defeat an entity that was difficult to defeat suddenly appeared before my eyes. For your information, I was almost penniless.”
“Hmm, that’s… A very difficult situation. But falling into the world of entertainment… It’s exciting!”
“I had similar thoughts, but I was more embarrassed. Thanks to that, I ended up using words I don’t normally use.”
“What?”
“Huh? Oppa… Wasn’t that your original way of speaking?”
“No. This is a way of speaking that was deliberately created to avoid being looked down upon. Well… As I use it a lot, there are times when it feels more familiar.”
“Wow, what’s your original tone like?”
“It’s normal. It’s no different from other people, Pamela.”
“Huh!?”
For a moment, I changed my tone to normal, and not only Pamela but also those around me blinked and looked surprised.
“Wow! The captain changed his words! That’s strange!”
“Not only the tone of speech but also the atmosphere changed in an instant?”
“Well, it’s time to relax… This isn’t as bad as it is.”
“But something feels awkward…”
“It feels a little friendlier, right, Mai?”
“Yes, Manager Sihan, who talks like this, isn’t bad, Mei!”
Well, I knew there would be this kind of reaction.
“Right now, I’m not particularly nervous or anything, and I’m using this style of speaking because I feel comfortable with it. First, this is roughly the end of the secret I’ve been hiding. I wanted to reveal this to you, the people I trust.”
Rather, what you say in a situation like this where you can’t help but be nervous may be better received.
“… Oppa. I want to ask you something.”
“What is it, Sasha?”
Sasha asked me with a very nervous expression for some reason.
“If we defeat the Demon Lord of Chaos… What do you wish for, brother?”
