How To Live as a Scammer in the Game

chapter 23



23. Because it’s destiny

“The entrance we came in has been blocked again.”

“Good job.”

I nodded at Diaz’s words.

With this, the pursuit could be evaded.

Since you cut through the door, you’d think they escaped through it.

We slowly entered this mysterious space.

I took a big look around.

Cave-like shape.

At first glance, it seemed like a natural place.

However, I couldn’t fool my eyes as a Pao God user.

‘This…is a historic site pattern.’

At first glance, artificial appearances came into view.

Originally, the world of Pao Gat saw a lot of unique underground ruins.

Was it a setting that existed in the ancient times, anyway?

In addition, because it was so well hidden, there were even places where it was discovered 7 years after the game was released.

‘Of course, there were no rare items in the place where they were discovered after 7 years.’

anyway.

It was also the first place I saw it.

No, in the first place, I wondered if it was a place that players could access.

Maybe it’s because it’s become a reality…

At first, we proceeded cautiously, one step at a time.

At the time I got the ring of black thunder, I was not afraid because I had been there, but since this was my first trip, I seemed to need to be careful.

‘Still, according to the original future flow, that Baron Romhardy escaped alone.’

What’s the big deal?

Indeed, we moved forward smoothly.

And finally.

We stood in front of a certain door.

From here on out, it definitely felt very artificial.

This time, Diaz was the first to step forward.

“I’ll open it.”

“Well.”

coo coo coo……

It was a fairly heavy iron gate.

Diaz almost collapsed and had to lean forward and push the door open.

That moment.

Pot, pot, pot!

Surprisingly, the candles inside the room were lit by themselves.

Baron Romhardy, who was watching the scene, was startled.

“Oh oh……!”

It was high magic.

Of course, even in the present era, wizards existed.

It wasn’t common, though.

But even that level was lagging behind the ancient times.

Even now, magic was a very mysterious realm.

However, there were records that the magic of that era was a little more primitive and at the same time a little closer to nature than the current one.

‘Only the record remained. The magic itself is all gone.’

Curiously, at some point, most of the ancient magics had lost their operation.

Ancient magic had faded to the point where there were even people who only pursued things about ancient magic like Treasure Hunters.

Because of this, it could be said that such a space is also very rare.

It was said that it was not strange that Baron Romhardy’s eyes widened.

Because even I had high expectations.

‘This……if I do well, I might hit the jackpot?……’

* * *

As the candles illuminated the surroundings, the interior came in a little brighter.

But… the scenery of the place that came into my eyes was more empty than I thought.

‘Eh? what’s this.’

Is it a joke?

That thought crossed my head first.

Because it looked like it had already been robbed.

It seemed that there was nothing here.

That’s what I’m thinking now.

Baron Romhardy could not rule out the possibility that he could only escape from prison through this route and not gain anything.

‘Hmm. Is it just a way out?’

But the funny thing is, there was no way out.

It was made in the shape of a round dome, so it was like a dead end.

‘Even if I go back, it’s a prison.’

There was no other fork in the middle.

I’m sure there’s another way out here…

It was then.

Baron Romhardy called me.

“Sir Rohan! There’s something here. Would you like to take a look?”

I touched the wall, then walked towards Baron Romhardy.

Diaz, who heard the sound, was also on his way.

We huddled next to Baron Romhardy and looked where he was pointing.

Unlike the other walls, there was something painted on that side.

‘Inside the semicircular dome… is this painting a person? Next to the picture of a person…what is this?’

There was writing underneath it.

“It’s like an ancient language. I can’t read it.”

Baron Romhardy looked back at Diaz, just in case.

But Diaz also shook his head.

“Ancient languages can only be interpreted by a few people within the church. Even that is interpretation rather than reading, so it is difficult to know the exact content. It is practically impossible to find out what the content is now…”

“Prove yourself in this circular arena and claim your honor. Warrior. Once you step in, you will not be able to escape unless you are victorious. Reach out to the stone slab and greet the enemy. For those who have won, give a small gift. give it.”

“Ro-Rohan-sama? I bet you’re reading this just now…”

Diaz looked at me blankly.

Only then did I wake up.

uh?……

Unknowingly, I read the sentence below.

‘Why is this…’

I couldn’t tell.

I just have to say that I read it on its own.

The letters made sense automatically.

To be honest, I was surprised too.

Meanwhile, Baron Romhardy, who had been listening to my story, reached out for the stone tablet on which the writing was written.

“for a moment!”

I pondered for a moment.

little gift……

I hope this, maybe that’s it.

‘Silver spear?’

I just remembered.

The skill that Baron Rom Hardy used.

The Silver Spear was not a unique skill.

He was a guy who fell into the category of general skills.

However, there were some particularly strong ones among the general skills.

This was especially the case with skills created based on ancient magic.

And one of them was a silver spear.

The skill itself was very simple.

As a skill of the Lancer class, it was to cover the spear with a silver aura.

The silver attribute was added to give additional damage to demon-type monsters…

‘Rom Hardy created the Silver Spears with that and became a hero who protected Rejeta during the Great Invasion.’

It was quite effective.

So, I was intrigued for a moment.

Of course, the Silver Spear is not a unique skill, but a general skill, so if you have the talent, you can learn it as much as you like.

But why were you greedy?

‘The first heir bonus…that’s a waste…’

General skills could be acquired through two main routes.

How to learn the skill from someone who has already learned the skill or from an NPC.

Or, like now, how to learn first through ruins or ancient books.

Skills possessed by NPCs could be learned by clearing quests, but the problem was when the user became the first successor.

At the time of online game play, when a rare general skill was discovered, only the first discoverer could transfer the skill along with various bonuses.

I remember it being a pretty fun system at the time.

Only the first discoverer can pass on the skill, so he shared the skill only within his own guild.

If there was a guild war, each guild’s representative skill was sprinkled to create a splendid picture.

So, the first heirs of advanced skills were treated in their own way and received experience bonuses, and it reminded me of the things that everyone took a place in the guild.

‘At that time, I was very envious of the first Heir users.’

anyway.

I think that slate is a switch now.

If my predictions were correct, the moment he touched the slate, that person would become the first successor to the Silver Spear.

But I soon decided to give up my greed.

‘If I take that… Rejeta might perish…’

Even if I got that, I couldn’t stay in Rejeta.

Then, since the initial heirs will disappear, there will be no skill transfer.

Naturally, there would be no silver spear troops.

Then there was only one result left.

Rejeta’s end.

that was a bit embarrassing

And it’s not the Lancer class that I use a spear as my main weapon.

Pao God’s level system is a bit different from the normal level system.

If you use a specific weapon for a long time, the experience of that class goes up.

It was a weapon proficiency system.

Since I already use the sword as my main focus, my sword proficiency must be on the rise.

Furthermore, it was a shame to throw away the sword, as it also has a unique skill to cut space with a ‘sword’.

So I

It took a lot of courage.

“Baron Rom Hardy. Put your hand on that slate.”

* * *

“Could this be… a skill?”

Baron Romhardy, who was looking at me, asked me.

I nodded.

He also seemed to know about the successor.

So he flatly refused.

“I can’t. This is not for me to get. Lord Rohan has led me here, how can you tell me to take this?”

“Because that’s how it should be.”

“What do you mean?”

In the future, you must protect the people here.

Would you believe me if I said that?

It didn’t seem like it would come off easily.

I thought it would be more comfortable to push with a little mystical concept.

“Because it’s destiny.”

“……fate?……”

The effect was clear.

With just one word, Baron Rom Hardy shut his mouth.

I urged him on before I changed my mind.

“Are you planning on staying here all day?”

“……”

He slowly reached for the stone slab.

and then.

stop.

Shouldn’t it stop again?

‘Ah, do it a little faster.’

Is it because you are Korean?

I was already feeling frustrated.

Baron Rom Hardy asked one more question, as if he didn’t know what I was thinking.

“But here… it seems to be an arena, but if you touch this, won’t the monster in that picture come out?”

I don’t know why.

I’ve already read all the words below, and I’ve seen similar scenes like this several times in the original work.

I roughly nodded and nodded.

“I know, so put it up quickly.”

“Ah, I see…”

Meanwhile, I drew my sword.

Naturally, Diaz also prepared for battle.

Let Baron Romhardy raise his hand.

I thought the arena was shaking a lot.

Whoops!

At the same time, something fell from the ceiling.

The gigantic thing that landed with the ground shaking was… a golem.

As soon as the golem spotted us, it threw out its right arm.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

And who said that a fist is a fist.

Well, I guess I did.

I stretched my left arm forward.

Whoa!

At the sound of two fists clashing, Baron Romhardy’s face turned white.

It was probably much bigger than he thought.

On the other hand, I was concerned about my side.

I felt tingling again.

It seemed that the battle of Siphoreo had not yet recovered.

Except for his left arm, he was an average person with good stamina.

‘exactly. Strengthening is essential. And… I’m still very weak.’

Aware once more, I jumped up and ran on the golem’s fist.

Let’s get to the middle of his arm.

The golem also reacted and swung its left arm to shake me off.

Having already seen the attack trajectory with my third eye, I easily dodged it.

Shock!

Jumped up

Cut the golem’s head vertically.

squeak.

A golem’s head that was split in two in a single blow, along with space itself.

At the same time as the magic inside his head was dispelled.

rumble……

The golem collapsed powerlessly.

I landed on the floor with ease.

good.

I looked up and saw Baron Romhardy, who was half stunned at the sight of me.

“I-I can’t do this…!”

The corners of my mouth almost went up slightly in a shrugged mood, but I held back because I had face.

what is this

It’s easy now.

and.

Whoaaagh!

A small silver star rose from the golem.

Wooo…..

Gradually gathered to Baron Romhardy.

After that, the light penetrated his body.

shaaa.

For a moment, it seemed that Baron Romhardy was shining silver, but soon the light faded.

As in the original history, Baron Rom Hardy became the owner of the Silver Spear skill.

He clenched his fists with a thrilled expression.

Then he looked back at me.

“Thank you! Lord Rohan! On my honor, I will never forget this boon!”

I responded with a small smile.

‘okay. It worked out. Let’s not be greedy.

I grabbed my sword, turned around… and stopped.

I definitely defeated the golem, but it was because the third eye reacted strangely.

‘Is this strange?’

So I sneaked away from the pile of stones with my feet.

Surprisingly, inside.

‘This, this?…’

I became the expression Baron Romhardy had a moment ago.

I saw that under the pile of stones.

‘……A golden spear?’

What used to be the golem’s core was split by my sword.

It seemed to be a stone slab that was in it.

The stone tablet had the words “Golden Spear” engraved on it.

Beneath it was another small crest.

[Warrior who gave up greed and gave up the silver spear. You are ready to have true power.]

That moment.

Whoaaagh!

A huge fireball, incomparable to the silver spear, rose.

If only the silver windows were like little stars in the night sky.

This one was like the sun itself.

that group of lights.

Fly into me without a moment to admire.

Wow!

seeped into me

Shrrrrr……!

It seemed that people would be blessed if they lived kindly.
