How To Live as a Scammer in the Game

3. but i can see it in my eyes

I was momentarily taken aback by Gauriel’s proposal.

‘Anything?……Will you listen?’

To receive such an offer from the beginning from a name that can only be seen at the ending.

Even I, who received the offer, was surprised.

An angel who fell to the ground on his own, feeling irritated by God’s coldness.

A traitor to God and a shield that sided with humans.

And now, a pursuer who relies on the Order of the Holy Knights to pursue evil while hiding his true identity.

That was the knight standing in front of me, Gauriel.

‘great. It’s nice, but… what the hell am I supposed to ask for?’

A few legendary items came to mind.

Unfortunately, however, they did not belong to Gauriel.

They were things you get one by one as you progress through the game.

Even if he asked, how would Gauriel himself give him something he didn’t have?

It’s just a bunch of live.

However, I couldn’t blow away this opportunity with a mediocre weapon.

‘Let’s exclude items.’

However, when I excluded the item again, nothing came to mind.

At this rate, it seemed that he would not be able to make a wish and would become a fugitive as a deserter.

I started tapping the calculator again in my head.

‘No items. Becoming a disciple is also a death route, so asking for money will be useless if the Great Invasion occurs soon… the options are too narrow.’

Whatever it was, it was.

It was only then that I realized that the range of what I could get was not as wide as I thought.

‘I can’t ask for Gauriel’s god-class abilities… Hmm? ability?……’

It was then.

I came up with an ingenious idea that surprised me too.

‘ah! okay! seven knights. Why didn’t I think of that?’

As I thought of the god-class ability, a thought came to me out of the blue.

It seemed that the opportunity to reach the second unique skill came rolling in easier than I thought.

“Seven Knights.”

“What now…”

“That’s what I want.”

* * *

[Only fight evil and realize justice.]

This was the motto of the Seven Knights.

In other words, created by humans to stand up to evil, completely out of political battles between states.

A group that can be seen as the so-called Great Devil War multinational special forces.

At that time, of course, various kinds of support were also great.

To the funding to equip the best equipment.

Even the best state guest treatment no matter what country you enter.

and so on.

‘You’ll be less worried about starving to death right away. At the same time, there is no need to desert.’

It was the ultimate decision to solve the worries I faced in one shot.

But even here, it was just an appetizer.

The real thing was right after that.

‘okay. A stone of power.’

The stone of power was a gem-like one the size of a finger.

The moment you become a member of the Seven Knights.

Those without power could hold the stone of power in their hands.

I already had one unique skill, but…

‘If it’s my passive… it’s possible!’

* * *

Those who were as strong as the seven knights were basically beings who showed transcendent abilities without authority.

Because of this, there were cases where they were recruited without any unique skills.

So, if there was no unique skill, the stones of power possessed by the seven knights were distributed.

As talented people with unique skills were added, the Seven Knights grew into a small, elite, powerful knights respected by all knights.

Seeing the financial power of the five most powerful kingdoms on the continent, such a ridiculous thing was possible.

Of course, it was not so easy to get into such a position, of course.

I too would have given up if the person in front of me hadn’t been Gauriel.

‘But I can see it with my eyes.’

I don’t know why, but I could see that pattern on the back of Gauriel’s hand.

That’s why I threw this deal.

Because it was Gauriel who served as the spiritual support for that group of heroes.

Originally, it was a secret, but…

Having played the original until the ending, I had no choice but to know.

“The Seven Knights…”

Gauriel seemed to be worried.

It seems that he never expected me to throw out such an offer.

He asked me back with a completely incomprehensible expression.

“I’m just a paladin. Do you think I have the authority to get involved with the Seven Knights?”

Are you cheating?

One didn’t work for me.

“If you were just a paladin, that would be the case, Gauriel.”

When his true name was mentioned.

Gauriel’s face hardened for an instant.

And then he shook his head.

“This is true. A young man with a knack for surprising people. Why did such a man come here? Not anywhere else, but to Fort Juan. Did he make his own decision?”

Gauriel asked while making an out-of-the-box reasoning.

Maybe it was to get a hint about me from my expression.

But I kept my mouth shut.

“……”

no.

I had no choice but to close.

What could be the reason?

I just closed my eyes for a moment and opened it, and it just turned into this tail.

When I didn’t answer, Gauriel continued talking alone.

“Hmm. It seems you don’t want to answer. I don’t normally like people who are veiled like you. But… I’d like to make an exception this time. There must be a story, right? I don’t vent that kind of anger. Usually… I’m afraid.”

I was still, but I was becoming a person with a grandiose story.

let it be

It’s not like I’m telling a lie, what can I do about it alone?

“It must have taken an incredibly difficult time to get that kind of power. Without power.”

“……”

“But for sure…if you add authority to that transcendent ability. You will be able to reach a different dimension than before.”

I was able to see through Gauriel’s plan after quietly listening to the story up to that point.

He seemed to think that the reason I wanted to join the Seven Knights was because of my authority.

I was honestly surprised.

because it was correct

‘It’s a great nerd. To fit in one room.’

In addition, depending on my answer, it was a question that could determine whether or not I actually had a unique skill.

If I’m interested in Power Stones, I don’t have a unique skill.

In the opposite case, you already have a unique skill.

Knowing the opponent’s unique skill was very useful from a strategic point of view.

You won’t be able to trust me right away because I haven’t clearly distinguished whether you’re an ally or an enemy yet.

So was the country.

His efforts to dig up even the bare minimum of information were imaginary.

So I decided to give away false information.

“The power… even if it exists. Even if it doesn’t exist, that’s all. Do I really need that kind of thing to defeat demons? I only need the authority of the seven knights. The authority to strike and kill demons anywhere.”

I really didn’t need that kind of authority.

If possible, I didn’t want to face the devil.

However, since it was a situation where I had no choice but to enter, I wanted to at least pretend that I did not have a unique skill.

Because I thought I needed this level of insurance.

Will my smoke screen work?

Gauriel narrowed his eyes slightly.

And…he nodded.

“Hmm. If you’ve already reached that level, you might think so. However, there is no such thing as absolute in the world. It wouldn’t be a bad thing to save a lane.”

Fortunately, he didn’t seem to notice my lie.

Well, even Gauriel couldn’t imagine having multiple unique skills.

Rather, it seemed that he was satisfied with the conversation.

So I also gave a tee to agree lightly.

“Well. It might be of little help in tearing down one more demon.”

“It’s not bad to approach it that way.”

“Hmm.”

Even so, there was one part of anxiety that remained in my heart.

Certainly, there would be some parts that would be more comfortable in many ways if he became a member of the Seven Knights.

However, the Seven Knights were a group created to fight demons.

‘Since I’m going to become a member of the Seven Knights, isn’t it a mission? If we send demon exorcism… it would be difficult…’

It was something that might get annoying.

when I was thinking like that.

Gauriel continued with a small smile.

“Whoops. Actually, I’m accepting your offer at the risk of a lot of blood loss.”

“What do you mean?”

“Originally, that position was created to accommodate the disciples I raised myself. The seven knights are the knights I founded. So I have the right to appoint myself. Even though there is only one seat. And one seat I created. , I took care not to be interfered with by anyone.”

This… it seemed like an unexpected place to open up.

I didn’t know this part, but luckily, it was going into the situation I wanted.

“So I don’t get anyone’s interference… It was a place to raise a guy who has the same meaning as me. I’m giving it to you right now. I didn’t mean to do this…”

“……”

“But after seeing you, I changed my mind. No matter who I raise, it will be difficult to make a bowl like you.”

Gauriel opened his eyes sharply.

“And that hatred for the devil. I won’t go into depth. Each one has their own story. But I liked the weight of that hatred. I only want two things: the hatred of evil, and that hatred. The power to make it happen. You already have both.”

I didn’t give any specific answer.

That’s why I thought about myself for a while.

‘Come to think of it, why were you so irritated earlier?…’

when encountering the devil.

I felt an uncontrollable disgust.

In fact, even now, while looking at Gauriel, I had that kind of feeling, albeit weakly.

The reason was still unknown.

‘Is it just me? no. If you listen to Gauriel, it doesn’t seem like everyone is angry. I’ll have to figure this out slowly.’

Gauriel, thinking that I was still thinking about that proposal, asked me one last time.

“I’ll ask you one thing. If you promise me that one thing, then I won’t tell you anything else.”

“Request?”

Gauriel took out a small medallion from his bosom.

Then he snapped his thumb and threw it at me.

chin.

I caught it.

“Far to the north. There is an old ruin named Terratrum in a place called Chareth. Can you place the medallion on the altar of Terratrum? I can’t enter there for some reason.”

“……”

Cha Les.

and teratrum.

The land at the end of the continent.

It was a name I knew.

According to my current calculations… it was definitely a place I should visit at least once someday.

But right now it was too much to go.

The distance was too far, and I had to farm now to prepare for the Great Invasion.

While hesitating for a moment, Gauriel added his words.

“I’m not asking you to do it right away.

“……”

“An opportunity like this won’t be common. I don’t know if I’m good at it right now. What can I do? If you refuse, I won’t invite you anymore. I don’t have much time to think about it. I still have things to clean up with.”

It didn’t look like a lie.

Gauriel was ready to leave at any moment.

“Will it be difficult?”

to his question.

I squeezed my medallion.

‘I don’t know. I’ll do whatever it takes.’

I decided to just throw it out.

There was no other way, and I had already gained a lot.

And no matter how much I thought about it, there wasn’t a better way to come out.

“The deal is done.”

“Haha! That’s good. Okay, so it looks like we’re on the same boat, so can you tell us your name? My name is Gauron. Of course, I think you already know the true name.”

Instead of answering with a nod.

I immediately gave the name that popped into my head.

“Rohan.”

“Rohan. Rohan. It’s an easy name to call. Now, Tong Sung’s name is about this. I’m a bit busy with work today too.”

Gauron tapped the back of his hand.

“Let’s talk about this again later.”

* * *

Gauron disappeared into the forest like that.

While asking his lieutenant for me.

The middle-aged man who sat next to Gauron in the first wagon and did not say a word was his lieutenant.

After Gauron disappeared.

Gauron’s lieutenant approached me, bowed, and introduced himself.

“I’m Paladin Monted. I’ll take you to Straun, the stronghold of the Seven Knights.”

Then, he immediately started giving directions.

That’s how our short trip began.

“……”

“……”

Of course, words are travel, and there was almost no conversation until Straun.

It’s quiet over there, so it’s hard for me to talk to you.

That’s how we were able to urge our horses and arrive at the stronghold of the Seven Knights.

“This is Straun, the stronghold of the Seven Knights. It is also the starting point of the heroes who started fighting the demons in the distant past.”

It was Monted, who had barely spoken so far, and seemed to come alive for the first time.

“The monks here are all paladins. Because of this, it is a sacred land that demons will never reach.”

It wasn’t.

I can’t say it out of my mouth right now… but this Straun Monastery will eventually collapse miserably due to the advance of demons.

All life withers.

The sight of only death and demons running amok came to mind.

Knowing that fact, I swallowed dry saliva.

gulp.

‘Before the Great Invasion begins, we must be prepared to survive…’

I realized the situation I was in again.

I followed Monted and stepped into Straun.
