How To Live as a Scammer in the Game

chapter 24



24. Doesn’t sound good

Dudungsil.

A golden orb rising from a stone slab.

It looked like a little sun.

The golden orb soon flew towards me as if it were shooting.

and.

Fire!

It penetrated my chest and entered me.

I felt my whole body getting warm.

To the point where you can’t feel the cold underground air at all.

[Normal Skill: Golden Spear (Mythic Class only) – Summons and throws a high-temperature golden spear that melts even the souls of evil.]

Faint letters appeared in front of my eyes for a moment, then disappeared.

And naturally, I learned how to handle this power.

This was definitely a skill compatible with silvery spears.

The ability of the silver spear should have already been known.

‘Throws a silver blessing that melts even the souls of evil on the spear he is holding and throws it. It said.’

There was a difference from the description.

The golden spear skill seemed to be able to be summoned even if there was no existing spear.

On the other hand, for the Silver Spear skill, I had to carry a javelin weapon.

And the color is also gold.

that’s silver

Come to think of it, there was a scene like that.

‘On the lithograph, the outline of the golem was painted silver, and the part that looked like the core was painted gold.’

I thought it was just showing the location of the nucleus, but I never thought it had such a hidden meaning.

But……

It wasn’t that that mattered.

‘Exclusive class skill…!’

Unlike unique skills, general skills were usually less valuable.

In the original work, almost everything was learned from NPCs.

Although there was a successor system, there were not many cases where it was actually used.

Of course it has to be.

Isn’t it unfair to have too many skills that only certain players can use?

It was a reality that only a few people were sprayed with the feeling of a so-called privilege.

Anyway, that’s why there weren’t many things to like about getting a general skill.

Except for the skills that are specific to a specific class like now.

‘By the way… my class is… Shinhwa? What is this?’

Looking at what I’ve learned, I think it’s true that my class is a myth class…

Pao God’s growth was weapon proficiency.

However, the direction of growth was different depending on which class and which weapon was used.

For example, even a thief class could use a dagger or an axe.

Of course, if a thief uses an axe, it’s very inefficient, so nobody used it.

Usually, it was common to know the class when choosing a character in the first place.

But wasn’t my case a little unusual?

‘I thought it was a mercenary class because I received a unique skill using a sword…’

It seems that my thoughts were not at ease.

Yes, looking back now, it was like that.

‘Generally, the mercenary class… it’s strange that the unique skill is infinite. The passive is also different.’

But even so, I never thought that it would become such an unheard-of class.

If you go back to that time, you probably won’t even think about it.

‘Well. But first… it sounds good, doesn’t it?’

The bad news is that I don’t know anything about this class.

The good news was that it didn’t seem to be a minor class.

That time when thoughts bite their tails.

Baron Romhardy asked.

“To be the first successor… This is the first time I’ve experienced something like this. I’ve learned spearmanship, but I’ve never experienced the feeling of having a picture engraved in my head like this from a textbook. It’s amazing. Is the hardness the same?”

“Well.”

I nodded roughly, but I was a little different.

The letters came to my mind like a screen from a game.

‘Hmm. Does each person learn in the way they are accustomed to?’

but.

If the textbook reminded me like Baron Romhardy… it would probably be rather difficult to learn properly.

After realizing that, it seemed like a pretty convenient system.

by the way.

How the hell did you find out that I had conceded?

‘Is there even a hidden camera?’

I casually looked up at the ceiling, but there was no way I could see anything like that.

What principle is it?

There was no way to know.

‘Ancient technology……It’s amazing.’

It seemed that ancient magic was more advanced than I thought.

After defeating the golem, a new invisible path appeared on one side of the wall.

There was no other way, so we headed there.

Fortunately, the road was connected to a dry well in one corner of Rejeta.

‘Looks like Baron Romhardy came out like this in the original novel too.’

Baron Romhardy bent low and gestured.

“This way! There’s someone we can trust to hide us.”

We followed him somewhere.

And a mansion that finally arrived.

smart smart

At the knocking sound made by Baron Rom Hardy, someone poked out his head from inside.

It was a middle-aged woman with bobbed hair tied back.

“Rom……Baron Hardy?”

“Yes fly, mate. Can you take care of me for a moment?”

At that question, she took a peek outside and opened the door.

“Come in now!”

“Thank you.”

We hid there temporarily to catch our breath.

She gave us water.

“How did you escape? From that dungeon.”

“It’s all thanks to these people. They’re the Paladins of the Church.”

“A paladin. I, really?”

“That’s right! These people have already noticed the change in Karcus.”

“As expected. That guy. It was definitely strange. But since the paladins agreed, there’s no doubt.”

Baron Rom Hardy introduced her to us.

“This is Merdin. Not now, but the one who served as the city’s garrison chief in the past.”

“It’s Rohan.”

“I’m Paladin Diaz.”

Merdin nodded.

“Nice to meet you. Thank you for your help.”

I escaped, and I was able to catch my breath, but…

The problem still persisted.

I turned to Baron Romhardy and continued.

“Are you certain that Karcus’s body has turned into a mass of poison? If you kill him, he spreads enough poison to annihilate the city and self-destructs?”

“I don’t believe it, but… the information our people risked their lives to obtain. The friend who found out about it died… In the meantime, we passed on the intelligence without incident. To be honest, there is no way to confirm further. It’s not there anymore. I just believe it’s true and move on.”

I frowned.

“Hmm. If there’s a demon with that kind of power behind you, it’s going to be hard to move carelessly.”

“That didn’t seem like it again. According to intelligence, the demon that gave Karcus that strange ability is presumed to be a low-class demon that can only use its power by using humans. Probably because he doesn’t have enough strength to do something by himself. It appears that Kus was brought in and used.”

“Did Karcus fall for that trick?”

“That’s right. He’s been greedy since before. He must have been aiming for that greed like a devil. Anyway, the big wall right now is Karcus. If you get rid of him, you’ll be able to kill the devil relatively easily.”

“As long as the demon moves quickly before it creates another minion.”

“…We have to do it before that happens.”

Merdin added an explanation to Baron Romhardy’s words.

“By the way, according to intelligence, Karkus is capable of self-destruction. Paladins can apply for an inquisition, but… as long as a summary judgment is difficult, there is a possibility of self-destruction before the religious judgment even begins. There is. There are parts that I am worried about.”

I answered her words.

“Summary judgment is possible.”

“Yes?”

Diaz replied to Merdin, who did not understand what he meant.

“Lord Rohan is a member of the Seven Knights, and also holds the title of Inquisitor. As long as he is judged as a demon, a summary judgment is possible.”

At that, Baron Romhardy and Merdin’s eyes widened.

“This, the Seven Knights?”

“Heretic Inquisitor… are those two positions possible?”

“Lord Rohan is the first. Never has been before, and it won’t be easy since.”

“haha……”

“Amazing.”

But I couldn’t laugh.

Because that didn’t solve anything.

“Even with a summary judgment. Even if you cut off his head, it’s the same as killing the city. Am I wrong?”

“……”

“……”

Baron Romhardy and Merdin nodded slightly and said nothing.

Not being able to kill Karcus was the biggest stumbling block.

For a while, no one spoke.

Everyone must have had the same idea.

The feeling of reaching a complete dead end.

It seemed that there was no way in sight.

at that time.

Baron Romhardy cautiously resumed the conversation.

“If you’re going to kill yourself, shouldn’t you be conscious?”

Looking around the crowd, he continued to express his thoughts.

“What if. What if. Stun him, drag him out of town and kill him?”

Ohh.

It was definitely a viable idea.

‘Also.’

In the end, Baron Rom Hardy comes up with an answer.

There were some differences, but the future I knew was right.

As everyone looked on their faces in agreement, Baron Romhardy showed a determined look in his eyes.

“If you just knock him out, I’ll drag him out of the city myself. If you just confront his men, it’ll be possible.”

At his words, Merdin gave a different opinion.

“No. The Baron must lead this city. As we know, if Viscount Morden is already dead… this city will lose its head. Then again, demons will come in. It can be done. Everything will be back to normal only when the chief stays firmly in his seat.”

“Merdin. I’ve already lost a lot of close friends. There’s no one left to ask for such a thing anymore.”

“I’m coming!”

Without hesitation, Merdin answered.

Hearing that, I remembered.

‘Yes…… I think there was a monument in memory of Merdin in the middle of the city…’

It was probably because of her sacrifice that the city survived.

Of course, Baron Romhardy immediately refuted.

“I can’t. This is my burden.”

“Are you sure you can knock him out without killing him, Baron?”

“……”

“I know that the baron has learned his own spearmanship. But he is still lacking in such delicate skills. On the contrary, I can do it. If I lead him with a stranglehold so as not to die, it is possible. I doubt my skills as the captain of the defense. You won’t do it.”

“Sir Merdin…”

“Right now, the herbalists’ deals have all been blocked, so there’s no way to get a poisonous plant… and there’s no way. It’s not that easy to stun people without killing them.”

Listening to their conversation, I recalled my memories.

Merdin, who appeared only in name in the original work.

However, now that it has become a reality, the weight of that name feels completely different.

‘This is how Merdin made his dedication.’

It was literally a noble sacrifice.

Baron Romhardy pursed his lips.

As she said, there was no way to send Karcus out of town…

I had to make a decision.

Are you really giving up on the person you care about and saving the rest?

Or will we all die together like this?

In the end, it was Baron Rom Hardy who made a decision with his eyes closed.

“Merdin……I’m putting a heavy burden on you again.”

“Baron. Don’t talk like that. Aren’t I originally the captain of the city’s garrison? I’m just doing what I have to do. You don’t have to feel guilty.”

“I’m sorry…… I’m a person without any power.”

“The Baron is a strong man. I know him better than anyone else.”

The last conversation between the two went back and forth in front of my eyes.

Beside him, Diaz silently shed tears.

But… I didn’t really cry.

It’s not because I’m not particularly emotional.

It was the reason why another law of destruction came to mind.

Ring of Black Thunder.

‘Wasn’t this a status effect?’

there was.

clearly.

‘I feel sorry for this level of power control…with the feeling of putting in a CC machine…’

Chijik……

do you think it will be

I looked up and looked at Baron Romhardy.

Our eyes met, and he tilted his head.

“Do you have something to say?”

“No. Would you like to wake up for a moment?”

“what are you saying……”

Before I could finish his answer, I unexpectedly landed a jab with my left hand at his chin.

Tung, get out!

dump.

So lightly, Baron Romhardy passed out.

He was also a person who learned spearmanship, so he had a good physique… but he was knocked out with a single blow.

Stun went in properly.

‘If the effect is this much.’

He was confident enough to knock out Karkus as well.

I waved my left hand.

“I’m a fan of stun guns.”
