C349
Cale explained the current situation to the Beast People.
Because they had been talking to the God of Death, it’s likely they hadn’t heard everything correctly.
“Do you understand what I’m saying?”
Cale spoke kindly.
‘Anyway, we’re going to have to interact for quite a while. There’s no need to be hostile.’
The Blue Wolf.
Until that God’s sanctity recovers, Cale and Lock will have to constantly interact with the Beast People of Apitoyu.
“…….”
“…….”
And the Beast People were listening to Cale’s words with a stunned expression.
‘Do these Beast People understand what I’m saying?’
Cale, with a sense of doubt, looked at the White Snake Wisha.
“!”
When Wisha flinched upon meeting his gaze, Cale asked her gently.
He had already given them a warning, so now was the time to give them a carrot.
“Wisha-san. Do you understand what I’m saying?”
“Ah, yes, yes!”
Wisha quickly responded with a kind smile.
Cale also took a look at the other members of the planning committee.
They also nodded their heads hastily.
Cale smiled with satisfaction.
“I’m glad it’s understood so well.”
He expressed his sincere feeling and then told them.
“I have to talk to the God of Death a little more. Could you give me some space?”
“Yes, yes!”
Starting with Wisha, the members of the planning committee immediately stood up.
They quickly left the meeting room.
Creeeeek, thump.
The door to the meeting room closed, and the Beast People who came out couldn’t open their mouths.
They stood in front of the door and looked at each other for a moment.
Gulp.
Swallowing or feeling a dry mouth.
Each one reacted differently as they looked at each other, and they all looked at the closed door before quickly looking away.
Calling the God of Death ‘Hey, hey’?
Stealing the God of Chaos’ Sacred Object?
Trying to obtain a Sacred Object with the characteristic of ‘null’ through trade?
A person who is only strong must be watched, but a person who is strong in strength, power, backing, and cunning is terrifying, more than watched.
Wisha opened her mouth.
“…If you want to stay alive…”
She remembered what Cale had said.
The person who said that Lock was his family, more than a Beast People.
‘It’s good that we can communicate.’
He had said that it was a pleasure to be able to communicate so well with them, when they had responded obediently.
Wisha always warned the group of planning committee members who were always disagreeing with her.
If you want to stay alive.
“You’d better listen carefully.”
Listen carefully to what Cale says.
She wasn’t saying that simply out of fear.
“Do you have the courage to earn the hatred of a God for people who have nothing to do with you? Could you fight against a God? Would you do it?”
No one answered.
“At least, keep your composure.”
Wisha said that and left first.
Cale said he would soon give some instructions, so they had to prepare.
“…”
“…”
One by one, the other members also began to walk. Their steps were as heavy as they were light.
* * *
And those who remained in the meeting room were Eruhaben, Lock, Raon, and Cale.
The spacious meeting room that the 1-Star Dragon Ryan used had really comfortable chairs.
Creeeeek.
Cale, who had leaned back in the chair until he was leaning back, looked at the mirror and said.
“You know I went to the Demon World, right?”
<Yes, I know. Did something happen?>
“It seems you haven’t received news from Choi Jung Soo.”
<Yes. Not yet.>
Cale nodded and said.
“I’ve created a cult of the God of Chaos in the Demon World.”
<….>
The mirror was silent for a moment. But soon it began to vibrate violently.
<What?>
<What nonsense are you saying?>
<What have you done now?>
Cale, who was calmly observing the messages that were flying because he was surprised, said one more thing.
“By the way, the name of that organization is ‘Arm’.”
<…>
The mirror, which had been silent, trembled slightly again.
<What a useful name you’ve come up with.>
Sss.
Cale let out a faint laugh and continued.
“I plan to incite conflict between the God of Chaos, the Hunters, and the current Demon King.”
<Hmm.>
The God of Death understood immediately.
<But hey...>
It seemed that his reaction was a little complicated.
“What’s wrong?”
<I’m telling you this because I’m worried about you.>
“Tell me.”
Vroom.
The mirror trembled gently.
<…You’re not planning to confront the Demon King, are you?>
And Cale’s face wrinkled.
“What nonsense are you saying?”
Why would I fight the Demon King?
Am I crazy to fight?
The ones who will fight will be the Demon King and the Mediators!
Why would I get involved in the Demon World’s affairs?!
While Cale’s face became increasingly terrifying.
Wooong, wooong! Wooong!
An urgent vibration followed.
<No, hey, hey! Don’t get mad! Listen to me first!>
<I just want to give you some advice if you’re not planning to confront the Demon King.>
Cale slightly softened his face and asked in a sharp tone.
“What advice is that?”
If it’s useless advice, you’re going to regret it. Cale’s gaze was still terrifying.
<There are few cults in the Demon World, right?>
“I know.”
They said that, except for a few cults, like the God of War, there were few people who believed in the Gods.
<That’s because the Demons are waiting for the arrival of a ‘Demon God’ someday.>
Demon God.
Cale had seen a statue depicting that guy as a Demon God when he went to Endable to confront the White Star.
“…Isn’t there a Demon God?”
<Yes. There isn’t. They’re just waiting for him to appear someday.>
“So?”
<The Demons believe that the ‘Demon King’ is the most likely candidate for Demon God.>
Ah.
Cale let out a sigh that sounded like a groan.
<Could you say it’s a kind of theocracy?>
<That’s why they treat the Demon King as a potential Demon God. And the Demon King is currently the strongest. That’s why, ‘who’ the Demon King is doesn’t matter. They simply consider whoever occupies the position of ‘Demon King’ as a potential God.>
The Demon World.
Cale thought that this place had many similarities to the ‘Demon Cult’.
<In any case, creating a cult of the God of Chaos there could be a way to challenge the Demon King’s authority.>
<That’s why the God of War and the other cults can’t spread their wings in the Demon World and act cautiously, observing the situation.>
Hmm.
Cale thought for a moment.
<Do you understand what I’m worried about?>
<It’s okay that you try to turn them against each other, but if they find out that you’re behind it, you could face a pretty complicated situation.>
<And that Demon King is very intelligent. If the previous Demon King was a guy who only relied on strength, this Demon King is strong, but also very intelligent.>
Cale, as if he had finished thinking, nodded his head and spoke.
“It doesn’t matter if they don’t realize it. And if they do realize it, well, I don’t have to go to the Demon World, right?”
<Huh?>
“It’s not easy for the Demon King to descend. Even the Gods can’t descend easily.”
<Yes, right?>
“Yes. So, it’s okay.”
Cale said firmly.
“I’ll just solve the Hunters’ affairs and return to my territory to live peacefully. I’m going to rest. Without fail.”
<…….>
“So I won’t get involved with the Demon World.”
<…Yes… Okay…….>
When the God of Death seemed convinced, Cale naturally changed the subject.
“Do you know the lair of Dragon Lord Neo? There’s a portal that connects to virtual reality.”
Cale and his group were investigating to install them in the Black Castle and other places.
“Help me with this.”
The God of Death, who also creates portals that connect dimensions, if he helps, the former Lord Sheritt’s work will progress much faster.
<Virtual reality is beyond my reach, so I think it will be difficult. But I’ll look for a solution.>
<…But I’m a little busy… Really…….>
The God of Death, who has been working non-stop for 73 hours.
“Ah.”
Cale felt sorry.
“Cheer up.”
And he added.
“Help me when you have time.”
Anyway, you have to worry about our work.
Cale said everything he had to say, even though he felt sorry for the God of Death.
<…Okay…….>
The God of Death left a weak message and disappeared.
“Hmm.”
Cale thought for a moment.
Eruhaben approached him and spoke.
“The Blue Wolf’s matter, and going straight back to Roan, it seems it will be a little difficult, right?”
It’s true.
The Purple Blood Family Hunters. Cale had solved the most important problem in Apitoyu, but he had to stay longer.
Above all, the main reason was-
“There’s no better medium than Neo’s lair.”
“It’s true.”
As Eruhaben said, Neo’s lair. That was the main reason they were staying in Apitoyu.
Sheritt, Rosalyn, and the others said they would also create a portal in the Black Castle.
‘It’s not easy.’
It will take a little longer.
Of course, I don’t think it’s impossible.
There’s no reason why Sheritt can’t do what Neo did. But it seems that research is needed on the connection between virtual reality and reality.
“Of course, the Transparent Family. We could go to Earth 3 where they are and enter virtual reality.”
Eruhaben shook his head.
“The benefits of Neo’s lair are greater.”
“It’s true.”
Cale added.
“And His Highness, the Prince, said that Ahn Roh Man. It seems that guy has something in mind.”
“Ah. He said he was our ally, right?”
Ahn Roh Man.
The president of Earth 3, Roan.
Moreover, the son of the virtual reality game developer couple that served as the basis for the game ‘Raising My Precious Absolute God’, and the number 1 player.
Their help would be very useful in confronting the Transparent Family.
‘But I don’t trust him.’
Cale and his group needed a means to approach the Transparent Family without going through him.
‘Moreover, we kept it a secret.’
Cale and Alberu didn’t tell Ahn Roh Man about Cale’s status, who had mastered the three and the seven calamities, also known as seven evils, nor about Alberu’s search for the hero.
“Hmm.”
Cale took out the mirror again and wrote a message.
* * *
Whoosh-
Alberu Crossman, who opened his eyes with a bright light, looked around him.
Ahn Roh Man. Alberu, who had secretly logged in to avoid his eyes, checked that he was alone and set off.
“This is a nuisance.”
His voice, murmuring softly, was full of irritation. His face had an expression of annoyance.
But he had a subtle smile at the corner of his lips.
It was dawn, according to the time of Earth 3, Roan.
Alberu had logged into the game while Ahn Roh Man was sleeping.
He remembered the message he had received early in the morning.
<It seems I can’t go straight back to Roan.>
<Your Highness, see you in the game.>
“Does he dare to give me orders, me, the Crown Prince?”
The corner of Alberu’s lips, which was crooked upwards, trembled more and more.
He couldn’t do anything else.
<I’ll be waiting. -Cale Henituse>
The scenery was different from the reality of the game he had experienced so far.
You can see the entrance with a fluffy sign, which seems unreal.
<The Land of Fun Fantasy Tales>
There are cotton candy trees and candy flowers.
Despite that, it’s a strange place that gives off a cold atmosphere.
If you enter through that door, that strange fairytale landscape will welcome you.
‘Hmm.’
The sign hanging from the entrance is broken, and some letters are erased.
Especially ‘Fantasy’, which is broken at the top-
It seems-
<The Land of Fun Crazy Tales>
That’s what it reads.
“…Ah.”
Alberu sighed and set off.
The hero entered the seven calamities with a firm step.
Alberu, who had become a player in the game, could see the community bulletin board connected to the game.
<Don’t go to that place yet!>
<That place is the eighth calamity. If you enter one of the eight calamities, you die and exit. You can’t even reach the intermediate boss. Or if you’re a high-level player, you can face one or two intermediate bosses. We can’t go to the eighth calamity yet.>
Below was an explanation of each field.
<The seventh calamity, the Hell of Time. It’s the Land of Fun Crazy Tales. Everyone is crazy.>
<There are really only crazy monsters.>
<Even the NPCs are a little crazy.>
<I’m leaving immediately because I’m going to go crazy if I stay.>
Alberu headed towards the seventh calamity, the Land of Fun Crazy Tales, which had become an inaccessible area for the time being and which players had stopped accessing.
“!”
And he stopped.
Below the sign-
‘A bear?’
A teddy bear was waiting for him.
“……!”
A description of the teddy bear appeared above.
[Final Boss. The Dark Wild Bear]
Final Boss?
Alberu stopped.
And the teddy bear looked at him. The teddy bear opened its mouth.
“Hmm. The description matches.”
And then he asked cautiously.
“Are you Alberu Crossman?”
Alberu nodded. Then, the teddy bear smiled.
Whoosh!
And he bowed ninety degrees.
“Pleased to meet you! It’s a pleasure to meet you! I’m the Dark Wild Bear, also known as Teddy Bear, the fierce Dark Bear. I’m the final boss who serves the worst of evils! It’s an honor to meet you! I’ll do my best to serve you!”
An energetic shout echoed at the entrance of the Land of Fantasy Tales.
Alberu Crossman stared at him and raised his head.
The sky was still clear.
“…This is a nuisance.”
The teddy bear, who had raised his head, couldn’t hear those words and asked cautiously.
“Excuse me?”
And Alberu looked at the teddy bear.
He bear could see a handsome young man, who was smiling brightly like a fairytale prince.
“It’s nothing.”
And he spoke like a prince.
“I suppose you’ve come at the request of Cale Henituse. Please guide me.”
The teddy bear, seeing that man, who exuded elegance in every word, action, and gesture, bowed ninety degrees again and shouted.
“I will take you with speed, precision, and safety!”
Haha.
Alberu simply laughed. It was a bright smile.
* * *
And Crown Prince Alberu was able to meet Cale Henituse after a long time.
“Oh, His Highness, the Crown Prince. Long time no see.”
The center of the seven calamities.
The lair of Dragon Lord Neo.
Cale, sitting on the throne of that place, greeted Alberu with his hand.
“Haha-”
And Alberu smiled happily.
“…”
Cale quickly got off the throne.
“Human! The Crown Prince is smiling menacingly!”
He didn’t respond to Raon’s words.
