I Can See Your Code

I see your code (216)

Exactly 2 minutes and 47 seconds. This is the time it took me to defeat 200 level 5 knights.

“Uh-huh, big bang… … .”

“City, priest. Call the priest… … .”

“… … .”

It seems like I put my hands on it a bit too much to cut down on time, but what… … . It was 250 to 1, no one would complain.

I said to send the priest I had prepared beforehand, and then went down the stage.

There was no applause. All I can do is look at them quietly with eyes that seem incredulous.

Before they got distracted and bothered, I quickly went into the waiting room, and there was a person inside.

It was Teyer Terberots that he saw most often recently, but the relaxed smile he had always been adorning, whether intentionally or not, has completely disappeared somewhere.

I don’t think it’s because I was surprised by my fighting power… … . What happened?

Anyway, I kept my mouth shut as if to organize my thoughts, so I did what I was meant to do. Change the outer garments you wore during the duel to prevent blood from splattering, and check the black iron sword once.

By that time, he barely came to his senses, and he stuttered and opened his mouth.

“… … The duel was good. I thought I was going to win because I looked so confident, but it was more than I expected.”

“It has become a sham. First of all, let’s talk about why. It seems like an urgent matter.”

At my words, Tair Terberots nodded his head warmly. Her usual smile returned to her lips, but her eyes were still stiff.

“It’s not just a pretense. I was actually surprised, because I needed some time to think about what to say about this. Anyway, it’s an urgent matter, so I’ll tell you right away.”

Having opened his mouth like that, Tair Terberoz sat down on a chair in the waiting room as if he had lost the strength to stand, and declared a bombshell with a serious expression.

“It seems that the ‘door’ you spoke of has been opened.”

* * *

To be honest, I wasn’t too surprised to hear what Tyer Terberoz had to say.

No, I was surprised, but I was like, ‘I can’t!’ It feels more like something is coming.

The continent has already passed the second part of the ‘Velia Continent Biography’. As long as the concept was to prevent the existence of another world, it wouldn’t be strange if it exploded at any time.

Anyway, the ‘door’ does not open immediately. You still have some time to spare.

I left the people to deal with the duel and headed straight to the horse tower. Then, the underground video recorded by Teyer Terberots was sent to the three kingdoms as a crystal ball.

It was about bizarre-looking monsters with their arms outstretched in ‘The Door’, but anyone would know that it is a very serious situation, unless you are an asshole.

Well, whether to accept it and send support is a matter of choosing the three kingdoms.

“… … .”

Damn, it would be such a pity that the crystal ball is a one-way communication.

It would have been great if we could talk openly with each other, but the impossible is unavoidable. If you twist, you should have developed a cell phone.

I gave up my lingering regrets about things that shouldn’t be happening and headed back to the meeting room.

The inside was clean without a single dust, as Tair Terberots, who came first, had ordered it in advance.

I’m talking about how I got all of this out of that little bird, but that wasn’t the only thing. Suddenly, the door opened and people rushed in.

The 1st Knight Commander Ricardo, the head of the commercial division of the company, and the 7-star wizard Matapju. Last but not least, Saint Arina, whom I haven’t seen in a while.

It’s actually a Layton All-Star gathering.

It doesn’t make any sense to call those people while I was visiting the tower for a while, and is it that they moved as soon as they heard the news of ‘Moon’?

I was a little surprised. To be honest, I didn’t ask much about the invasion of the other world, so I thought I was treating it as nonsense.

Anyway, I immediately took my hips off the chair and greeted them one by one. Because they deserved to be treated like that.

And as soon as the introduction of each other for the first time was roughly finished, Tayer Terberots, who was standing next to me, spoke slowly.

“The reason I gathered you all today, I think you probably heard a bit about it on the way. If you need more detailed explanation, I will play the recorded video… … .”

At those words, everyone in the conference room nodded their heads. It’s a natural thing because it’s something that should have been delivered in a hurry.

As if expecting this, Tair Terberots calmly regenerated the crystal ball he had prepared.

The content was the same as what I had sent to the three kingdoms. A video of monsters on a different level from the monsters in Velia continent reaching out their hands.

Ma Thap-ju, who had been concentrating on him until the end, said with a smirk on his tongue.

“Huh, there are creatures with such a cursed appearance in the world. To be honest, I was a little dubious when he talked about it years ago… … .”

“He came from another world, to be precise, he wasn’t in our world.”

“Anyway, aren’t you saying you’re coming to our world now? Then there is nothing special.”

The video must have been quite a shock to them as well. If you see them all and say things like that.

He tapped his palm a couple of times to ventilate the surroundings.

“We’ll discuss which world that creation is from later, but for now we’ll start with the other one. How many wizards can the tower support?”

“Is there no need for countermeasures?”

“It’s already been put together.”

“… … I’ve never heard of it.”

That’s because I never told you.

It was not a matter to inform the master of a single city, maybe it would be the general representative of Matthew.

Even though I was asking him for the first time, I was just repeating the words to ask above.

He also shrugged his shoulders and nodded as if realizing it not long after.

“I’ll ask the Hermen representative and tell him.”

“thank you.”

I turned my head as soon as I heard the Master’s answer.

Young-gyeong-nim is my affiliation in the first place, so there is nothing to ask, and Ricardo has already received a promise to be together once. All that’s left is the temple of Kitan… … .

“… … .”

The party, Arina, was silently thinking about something.

“Lady?”

“yes? Ah yes. Ryan.”

“Is it possible to support priests or paladins in the temple?”

At my question, Arina took a deep breath as if in pain.

“That’s the question… … . First of all, in the Temple of Kitan, you can apply for one thousand priests and five hundred paladins. It was also agreed upon in advance.”

“At another temple?”

“… … First of all, I am the representative of the temples, but there is no agreement on that side.”

It is said that it is impossible to say this and that to another temple from the standpoint of its position.

There is nothing very surprising about it.

Because there is no way that they, who are more unintegrated than the three kingdoms, would suddenly join hands and be sassy.

In fact, the reason Arina came out as the representative was not because the temple of Kitan was the largest, but because there was only one important job in Layton.

“I know that about a year ago, the kingdoms professed an invasion of another world and sought cooperation from the denomination.”

When Ricardo, who had been the commander of the Black Knights, asked a question, Arina nodded her head slightly.

“That’s right. At that time, most of the temples also declared that they would help unconditionally if it were to protect the continent.”

“But what is the problem?”

“The power of command.”

Arina sighed once more and continued.

“A priest’s job is not the best, and there was no objection to the fact that the person who came out of the temple should have the authority. the problem is… … .”

“Which denomination has that command?”

When I interrupted, Arina meekly agreed.

“… … Right. And to be honest, that position is no exception in our Khitan Church.”

“It’s not safe to leave your people to someone else.”

If you think about it in common sense, it makes sense. Because the original way is to bend your arms inward.

If there was something to be risked, would the commander send his or her own person? It would be nice if I didn’t intentionally drive him into a limb just because he’s usually a bad guy.

So, it is understandable to be reluctant to face such a problem.

However, it was unacceptable to not come to support itself due to such a problem.

“Then, can you tell the other temples about my position?”

“That’s enough. What can I tell you?”

I cleared my voice for a moment and then spoke firmly.

“If there is a denomination that does not send or neglects support for the sake of command, they will never be able to set foot on Layton again in the future.”

“… … Would it be okay to put such a cover on the temple?”

After the meeting, which had been held urgently, ended in a slightly gritty atmosphere, Thayer Terberodz, who returned to meet them, asked me:

I shrugged, not taking my eyes off the paperwork I was processing in the meantime.

“What can I do? If they were the ones who wouldn’t send their support anyway, they wouldn’t have come without having to give up.”

“I agree with that opinion. In the beginning, the shrine bastards always say they are for the poor in front of them, but they always take a step back when they really need it. But shouldn’t we see it after the war?”

Tair Terberotz, who had spoken up to that point, suddenly changed his complexion.

“Isn’t it possible that you also gave up in advance in fear like the liberation king did in the past?”

“Is it possible? If that was the case, I wouldn’t have to suffer like this and live in hiding somewhere. To be honest, I have the confidence to protect myself in any situation, right?”

“Then what is it? Even if the temple in Layton paid half of it, the streets would be full of sick people.”

I’m sure it will.

Because of the amount they receive every time they receive treatment, they even hear that they are money worms, but anyway, it is true that there is no alternative except for them.

Are there any antibiotics here or the doctor?

Sometimes, in novels about people who are in a similar situation to me, I would make them out of the box, but that’s not me. Even though they are from the same department, their fields are different. To be honest, I had no connection with biology or chemistry.

But that doesn’t mean there’s no way out.

“What if the remaining temples fill more than double the number of priests?”

When I asked, Teyer Terberoz shook his head as if not to say something absurd.

“How are you going to fill it out? It’s true that Layton has developed rapidly recently, but it’s not that high-spirited people are noticing that much. A priest is a very valuable human resource.”

“Then you can make it so eye-catching.”

At my words, Tair Terberoz smirked.

“I mean, it’s easy. But how the hell are you going to do that? It wouldn’t be like a sudden burst of gold from Layton.”

“It’s not golden, but something more is about to explode.”

“… … More than gold?”

Teyer Terberotz tilted his head as if he had no idea, but I grinned and concentrated on the paperwork again.

It’s actually more fun to find out about this later.

Anyway, one thing was certain.

The fact that the temples that did not send support to Layton this time will hit the ground and regret it later.
