Going Into the Game With an Instant Death Skill

chapter 4



But what is he talking about now?

It took me a while to understand the meaning of the word, as it was far beyond my expectations.

‘······ Is this a Scout?’

Is that guy proposing to recruit me into his own faction right now?

No matter how much I overestimate my existence, to a prisoner whose identity is unclear?

I realized he was misunderstanding something more deeply than I thought.

Of course, this was a great opportunity.

The situation in which I was desperately trying to put on a show, and he took the initiative first.

If you accept the offer, you will be able to escape safely from this ship just before sinking. but······.

‘The problem is after that.’

What am I going to do when I go to Calderic, who is actually just a scumbag with no powers?

and what? overlordship? You’re going to take me directly to the overlord of Calderic?

You’d be better off sticking your head through the tiger’s jaws.

woohoo!

…but there was no other way.

Whether it’s being crushed by the wreckage of a collapsing ship, or drowned in the sea.

If I don’t accept his offer, I will surely die here.

‘It’s worse than the worst.’

The priority was to think about the afterlife and live for now.

After quite a long silence, I opened my mouth softly.

“Is that a recruitment offer?”

“of course.”

A quick reply came back.

“It’s Calderik….”

I mumbled something like that once for no reason, and then I continued.

“It’s a little interesting.”

Oh, isn’t this a little bit?

and immediately regretted it. Interesting is crazy. I went too far thinking that it would be okay to just say accept.

Still, it was safe, and his expressionless face seemed to brighten up a little for a moment.

‘But some restraints.’

Can’t you sensibly let go of this?

Fortunately, as if my earnestness had been conveyed, he staggered into the prison.

Kang!

The restraints were simply smashed and scattered on the floor by an unknown intangible force.

Only then was I able to regain my freedom.

When I glanced at him, he didn’t seem to think it was strange at all.

Yeah, I can’t imagine that the guy who killed Kwon Seong was a weakling who couldn’t break even a single piece of iron.

“I would like to formally greet you again. I am Dafon Claddinel, a member of the Overlord Castle of the Calderic Monarchs, and the Chief of Staff directly under the Overlord.”

Chief of Staff under the Overlord?

‘Somehow, the level was very high.’

Only then did I find out who he was.

I didn’t memorize the names of many NPCs in Lhasa, so when I heard the names, I couldn’t immediately recall them.

Chief of Staff of the Overlord of Calderic. A close confidant of the Overlord and a tycoon whose actual influence is no less than that of the nine monarchs.

After he finished speaking, he looked at me.

It was a gaze waiting for an answer from this side.

I felt a little troubled. I don’t even know who I am, can I introduce myself?

After a moment of silence, he finally uttered a single word.

“theory.”

there is no meaning He spit out an appropriate name that came to mind in an instant.

Because in the Western fantasy world, I couldn’t even say my real name, Seokja.

Fortunately, Dayphone nodded without asking further questions to see if that was enough.

“Oh, and excuse me, can I retrieve the body of the authority?”

“···········?”

“Someone else might want this. Of course, Lord Ron owns the corpse.”

No, I don’t need that at all.

What kind of corpse was left behind and the ownership came out? Does anyone want this?

‘Ah…are you talking about the King of the Dead?’

Anyway, it was a good thing for me, so I replied that I should take care of it.

Dayphone, who gave a brief thank you, waved her hand toward Kwon-seong’s body.

Then a dark aura erupted and swallowed the corpse in an instant without a trace.

“Then Sir Ron, I’ll take you to the Overlord’s Castle right now. I’ll teleport you, so please don’t resist the magic.”

Daphon said so and held out his hand.

When I asked how to escape, was it still a teleport?

Come to think of it, one of the chief’s abilities was obviously ultra-long-range teleportation… But wait.

‘······Now to the Overlord Castle?’

I stared at the outstretched hand with a trembling heart, grabbed hold of it, and got up from my seat.

wow.

Soon, the surrounding space was gradually distorted with a soft blue light, and for a moment, I felt as if my body was floating.

······feel like vomiting. How much time has passed? 10 seconds passed?

When my vision was clear again, I was no longer in the convoy’s prison.

I blinked my eyes, hiding my surprise at the changed scenery in an instant.

saa.

A dark and spacious communal space.

Countless huge stones emitting blue light were embedded in the walls in all directions, and the light emitted from them was clustered right under our feet to form a geometric figure.

‘······Magic circle?’

As I looked down at it slowly disappearing, I raised my head back and looked around.

Aside from the magic circle, monsters in robes stood motionless like statues around.

As soon as I moved, what was it, this atmosphere.

“Daifon.”

A woman in a costume that looked like a butler came closer and bowed her head.

“Thank you for your hard work in a distant land. I’m glad you returned safely.”

Naturally, her eyes fell on her pointy ears. Elf?

“The Overlord?”

“You are seated. The Lords’ Conference will begin in a little bit.”

“You came back at a very exquisite time.”

Dayphone, who murmured like that, spoke to the woman who glanced at me with questionable eyes.

“This is a noble person I will introduce to him directly. Do your best to serve him.”

“······································································!

She was taken aback by the words, and returned quickly with an expressionless expression.

Then, with one arm folded, he bowed more politely.

“I’ve made a mistake. My name is Kaylan.”

·······There’s something going on.

Even after escaping the convoy, things were still going crazy.

‘So… is this the Calderic’s Overlord Castle?’

Did you really travel that great distance from the realm of Seintea to Calderic at once?

And from now on, I have to face the overlord of Calderic?

Of course, it’s all as I said, but… So straight away?

‘I’ll be delighted.’

I wonder what kind of response will come from Daphone if they change the word that they will defeat acceptance even now.

Unlike the convoys of the past, this was the gnome’s main base and the center of Calderic’s forces.

Is it too optimistic to expect that he will smile and be gentle?

“Welcome to Calderik’s Overlord’s Castle, Sir Ron.”

Dayphone, who could not understand this side’s feelings, was only babbling with such a sigh.

The cost of escaping from the sinking ship was entering the tiger’s den.

Rashatain, overlord of Calderic.

Also, in the world view of Lhasa, one of the top giants is positioned as the head.

Ah… now I really don’t know.

Do whatever it takes

monarch meeting (1)

The cavity was quite deep underground, so the stairs leading up to the top continued for a long time.

Upon arriving on the ground, Dayphon apologized and went somewhere first, and I was guided by Kaylan and followed her.

“If you tell me a meal, a bath, or anything else, we will prepare what you want right away.”

He replied that he would take a bath first.

I was a prisoner a while ago, so it’s natural, but now I’m in a very dirty state.

As he expected Kaylan to do the same, he immediately sent his servants to prepare.

As if carrying a bath towel, the maids attached Ur, but they all bit him.

Until less than an hour ago, from the position of a very ordinary modern person, it was just shameful for someone else to wash their body.

“While taking a bath, prepare a meal separately.”

“Not required.”

I just wanted to freshen up, but I didn’t really think about eating.

After taking a bath somehow, I changed into neat clothes and was escorted to my room. It was a very spacious and colorful room.

I approached and stood in front of the mirror.

On the other side of the mirror, an unfamiliar man was staring at me.

Jet black hair, pale white skin, two bright golden eyes, and distinct facial features.

‘He was terribly handsome.’

It was pure appreciation for the possessed body, putting aside the current situation.

I had already checked it while taking a bath, but it was a look that I couldn’t get used to.

Rather, I’m not my character, and I don’t know what kind of body I got into.

Because my character wasn’t like this, but blonde and blue eyes.

I walked over and stood by the window this time.

Since the room was located on a high floor, the scenery of the castle could be seen quite well from the window.

The huge walls surrounding the outskirts, the tall and majestic buildings, and the soldiers and knights standing on the border with a fierce force everywhere.

‘The Calderic Monarchy.’

One of the four major powers of the continent, with overlord Rashatain and the nine monarchs under him at the apex.

Unlike Seintea, where only humans exist, a land where various races other than humans are mixed.

As can be seen from such characteristics, it is the most liberal and open-minded force among the four major forces.

The place where I am now is Calderic’s Overlord Castle.

Overlord Castle is a castle located in the center of Warborn, the capital of Overlord Rule Dragore.

Dragore was also a familiar area where I used to come and go as if I was eating while playing Rasa.

‘Is there a poem of Warborn outside that wall?’

Beyond the computer screen, he directly encounters a place he’s only seen through the graphics of a game in real life.

Had it not been for this situation, I would have been able to purely enjoy the overwhelming scenery in front of me.

“Whoa….”

He put his chin on the window sill and let out a deep sigh.

How did this really happen?

Why on earth do I have to face the overlord of Calderic from now on?

One misunderstanding made the board too big.

Now, it seemed that he could understand the heart of a cow that transcends species and is being led to the slaughterhouse.

Suddenly, I remembered what Kaylan had said earlier.

‘By the way, I heard that the monarch meeting is about to start…’

In Lhasa, I was a person who could be counted on one hand.

Of course, he knew quite a bit about Calderick.

The main NPCs belonging to Calderik, as well as the way the ruling class works and the system, are quite detailed.

Usually, it is rare for users to play the game knowing even the detailed settings that have nothing to do with the story progression, but the case was slightly different if the game was Rasa.

Lhasa was a game with a lot of hidden pieces, and sometimes you could find clues about it within the game’s settings.

Therefore, it was common for most of Lhasa’s deceased person, as well as me, to know the settings that were not so trivial.

monarch meeting.

It is, as the name suggests, a regular conference, attended by the Overlord and all nine lords.

And, of course, the place where the meeting was held was the place where the overlord was located, the overlord’s castle.

‘Then, aren’t most of the other monarchs gathered here right now?’

As I thought about it that far, an unfamiliar feeling of anxiety arose.

For some reason, I felt that the timing was not very good.

Because I barely knew. That Overlord Rashatain is a character with a rather unpredictable personality.

smart.

After being in agony for a while, a knock sounded.

“Have you been resting, Sir Ron.”

It was Daphone, not Kaylan, who opened the door and entered.

I knew the time had come.

Even that the ominous foreboding was exactly right in the words that followed.
