Became an Extra in a Youth JRPG Game

chapter 98



98 – Battle of Gods (5)

The mobs that can be encountered in random encounters now are between the late 20s and 30s. It was a skeleton soldier that I had seen often since the other day.

It was the game company’s consideration to somehow make players hit level 30 at this point.

There was a lot of intention to raise the level to 30 somehow and attack the dungeon in May.

My role was simple. I had to somehow get the party members to level up within today.

“High bread crumbs!!!”

I ran towards the group of skeleton soldiers.

“Krurrorruck!!”

“That’s it!!!”

Skeleton soldiers attracted by me ran straight towards me.

“Next!!”

I immediately ran through the alleys of the old town. Skeleton soldiers were also swarming in the back alley.

“Pinocchio!!”

I immediately threw Pinocchio at the skeleton soldiers.

Perbubbubuck-!

Pinocchio flew like a disk and ran between the skeleton soldiers.

“Come back!! Pinocchio!!”

I directed it directly to Pinocchio.

“Zooin-nim!! I think I’m going to have a hard time!!!”

Pinocchio flew straight towards me while complaining.

“Kreollerok!!”

A group of Skeleton Soldiers in the alleys of the Old Town, and the Skeleton Soldiers who had originally led them, pursued me all at once.

The number is about 30. I really collected it to the fullest.

“Sacits!! Madness!!!!”

After gathering the skeleton soldiers together, I immediately shouted at Sasitth.

“Okay!!!”

The Sasits summoned the Psychorobo they use these days, Uwang #799.

“Gigantic Punch!!!!”

Sasitth shouted that and immediately activated the skill.

“uuu!!!!”

At the same time King Wu swung his fist, a huge fist hit the ground like a meteorite.

Quaaagh-!!!

With a local earthquake-like vibration, the bodies of the skeleton soldiers all at once turned into powder and scattered.

Tiriying-!!!

Probably because a large number of monsters died at once, the experience range rose steeply.

Sasits was already level 35. Umi and Taiga were only level 31.

My level was… 30. In the dream dungeon, the level goes up a lot, but here the level didn’t really go up. Could it be some kind of curse? There was even such an illusion.

“With this, all of them passed 30.”

Sasiceth said.

“Then, let’s attack that flying dungeon quickly. It’s always visible, so pay attention.”

Taiga said.

“Let’s do that…Tomorrow.”

I said so.

It is 1:30 in the morning now. It’ll be 2 o’clock in a while. The time limit for the temporary disappearance of the underworld was approaching.

“Hmm…I see. Then let’s break up soon.”

Sasiceth said.

“Uh. I’ll stop by Greenbeard’s shop and buy some things I need for the raid.”

I said so.

The settlement money from the novel was also collected, and there was money left over for the new year that had not been spent before. I’ll have to shell out some money and buy something. I thought so.

It was a bit of a painful expense, but I couldn’t help it. If we do nothing, the world itself perishes. The world was perishing, but there was no time to discuss money issues.

“I’m sorry. I’d like to add some money too… But I’m a little tight.”

Sasitth said in an apologetic tone.

“It’s okay. I’m watering it.”

I said so.

Uh. Honestly, it’s a pity, but… I can’t help it. Because I am the one with the most money here right now.

Since it was late, I sent Umi and Taiga back as well.

After that, I headed straight to Greenbeard’s shop.

During the day, it was an ordinary general store, but at night, it was a weapon store and a store that sold various combat aids. Why does Greenbeard help the player? The reason was simple.

‘Green beard…A civil servant.’

It was a kind of bureaucrat whose job was to hide the existence of the Underworld from the people of our world. Likewise, Bluebeard in the Chamber of Souls was also like that. It was easy to think that all the guys with oddly colored beards were from the other side.

However, the underworld had already been ruined, and as the erosion of the underworld began, incidents that the public officials could not handle were happening one after another. The situation was already out of control.

In the end, the guys from the other side of the world supported the player party and had no choice but to expect them to somehow solve the situation.

There was a reason why the guys from the underworld were called ‘incompetent’ by the fans of this game. They made no attempt to do anything with their hands.

He was the MZ of MZs, living witness to the ‘Do it for me’ meta.

“Ah… You’re here.”

Greenbeard greeted me with a pipe.

Cheolgruk-!

Greenbeard took out the salt right away.

“I’m sure you’re not trying to do something stupid again.”

Greenbeard looked at me with fearful, wary eyes.

“Ayu. It’s not like that.”

First of all, I relaxed my guard by trembling. Only then did Greenbeard add salt. But… It was true that my stomach was a little goosebumps.

“But… Isn’t that a bit too cheesy? You’re an agent dispatched under a special mission from the other side of the world to help us. Helping us by providing a lot of free equipment is…”

You say you’re going to save the world, but that’s enough. I was thinking like that.

“Hey, our world doesn’t have as well a bureaucracy as it does here. I’m a bureaucrat, but I don’t get paid. Besides, I don’t get subsidy. Everyone has to source locally. There’s a reason they sell for money.”

Said Greenbeard.

“……I see.”

I didn’t know about this setting until now. It’s almost the same as the ancient battle system. That’s why it sucks. I roughly guessed why the behind the scenes world was sh*t.

“Anyway, what did you buy? Weapons… I don’t think so. I got a pretty good sword. Is it Yodo Tomado?”

Greenbeard stared at the sword I was wearing around his waist. You know the name of the sword right away.

“I have to clear the dungeon. Please give me recovery medicine, SP recovery medicine, and… Doradora River.”

I made a deal right away.

Doradora River.

It was a consumable item in the game. Once used, it was a device that teleported directly to the entrance of the dungeon. It was convenient to think of it as an emergency escape device.

As a convenient item, the quantity that could be purchased was limited, and it was obtained in the middle of the game. It will appear around the dungeon raid in June. Originally, I couldn’t live in this timing.

But… I needed it now. It was because there was a use in that ship dungeon.

“That, how…”

“Selling is selling. I’ll give you the money. Come on.”

I snapped my hand.

“It is unreasonable since I received an order from above. I received an order to sell as of June.”

Said Greenbeard.

“Who’s the boss? Just tell me.”

I said so.

“You wouldn’t know if I told you. Go ahead. I can’t sell that.”

Said Greenbeard.

“Tell me. I know everything when I cross a bridge.”

I said it with conviction.

The head of the Earth branch of the Underworld was ‘Bluebeard’. I thought it was a barrel here.

“Pretending to have a lot of connections… Is Bluebeard. Is that okay?”

Greenbeard said to me with eyes that saw the truth.

“Bluebeard?! You’re close to me!! I’ll get permission from Bluebeard later!! Give it to me quickly!”

I immediately ran towards Greenbeard.

“No!! Orders are orders!!!”

Greenbeard exclaimed loudly. Really… Inflexible. That’s why I can’t get out.

“I!!! From Bluebeard!! Huh? I got such a cool Psycho Robo!!! I also got a privilege to enter a secret dungeon at night!!! Ugh? Can’t you do that?!! Yes? I How close you are to Bluebeard!”

I immediately went to the red squad.

I was going to get the Dora River by any means here.

“Even if you say so…”

“Call Bluebeard right now!!! Ask me if it works or not!!”

“It’s kind of mindless to call your boss…”

“Call me!!!!!”

I immediately drew my sword and shouted.

“Tongue, are you threatening me?!”

Greenbeard immediately rolled up his sleeves and said.

“Oh… You want to stop?”

I said with a smile.

“You… Ignore me so much… They say you can easily subdue me.”

Greenbeard looked menacingly at me and said.

“Yes. If you fight, you will win.”

I readily admitted that.

“But… Even if you are overpowered, can’t you destroy some of the expensive items in this store?”

I smirked. Even if it fits, it doesn’t fit nicely. That was my creed

Yes. Hit me all you want But that doesn’t mean the sh*tty store will go back to normal?

“This… You bastard…!”

Greenbeard grabbed the back of his neck.

After their eyes crossed for a moment, Greenbeard sighed and took out his phone. Smartphones that people in the underworld also use… Is this Earth’s technology? This is a science victory and a cultural victory.

Anyway, the call between the two continued.

“Yes. Yes. That… Arigiri Shota… Crossed the Doradora River…”

“The truth is that even if you deal with it, you’ll get tired…Just give it to me. It’s the same every week in May and week in June. I’ll write the report roughly.”

I heard Bluebeard’s tired voice.

“Ah. Yes. I see.”

Greenbeard hung up the phone.

Greenbeard sighed and took out something shaped like wild ginseng from the counter. This was the Doradora River.

“It’s 5,000 yen each.”

Greenbeard said resignedly. It was an expression full of self-doubt unique to a self-employed person who was defeated by Jin-sang.

“Give me three!!”

I handed over the cash right away.

Like that, I obtained three Dorado Rivers.

With that, the preparations for the dungeon raid were over. After finishing my business, I went home right away.

Should I prepare for the sacrifice, protect the world, or tell the truth… I was living a fulfilling life in many ways.
