How To Live as a Scammer in the Game

chapter 40



40. I! will be in the vanguard

Zephron and Knight Commander Vincent whispered that they were right.

‘What are you talking about?’

I had no way of knowing the context of their conversation.

So I decided to just ignore it.

‘I’ll do it myself.’

with the mindset.

“Are the cemeteries shown here the places where anomalies have been observed so far?”

Knight Commander Vincent immediately answered my question.

“Yes that’s right.”

Well? Why did you become so active all of a sudden?

I thought they were rare people.

With that thought in mind, I continued my words.

“I’d like them to be displayed in chronological order.”

“You mean the order?”

“Yes.”

“Hmm. Okay. I’ll do it right now.”

He looked for other data again, entered the numbers one by one, wrote down the numbers, and continued checking.

A new map completed like that.

I crossed my arms and looked down at it.

‘Um…… this. Can you feel it?’

those locations.

It was a place everyone knew.

The places checked first are high level hunting grounds.

The later it was checked, the lower level hunting ground it was.

‘I guess the ghosts that appeared first are getting stronger?’

Do monsters grow over time?

It was a strange phenomenon.

anyway.

I skimmed the map carefully.

With all the hunting grounds revealed, I began to remember this terrain accurately.

‘Let’s see. Then Horike Dawn must be… over there.’

However, there were a few empty spots.

Couldn’t fool my eyes.

Originally, even if I couldn’t memorize the textbook well, I memorized the locations of the dungeons and hunting grounds in the game.

I stretched out my finger and pointed to the missing part of the map.

“Here. And here too. It’s not confirmed. Are you sure no anomalies were found?”

At my question, Knight Commander Vincent’s face hardened.

“Yes? There are no cemeteries in these two places…”

“That word. Are you sure?”

Let’s ask again.

His face went white a bit.

“Now, for a moment. Let’s check.”

and after a while

After confirming again, Knight Commander Vincent returned.

“Sir Rohan. One of the places you mentioned had a similar incident. It’s quite old, so I can’t seem to link it. I’m sorry.”

He pointed to one of the two places I mentioned.

“But this place certainly has no record.”

“No records?”

“Yes.”

Judging from how confidently he answered, I think he’s certain this time…

at that time.

A knight came.

“Knight Commander. The Holy Knights have sent you additional information. They say that the area where the anomaly occurred has been added.”

“In addition?”

“Yes.”

The knight looked at the map spread out in front of his eyes and pointed to one place.

“This is it.”

At his gesture, the eyes of everyone except me widened.

It was the other one of the two places I had been told to check.

“I-I can’t do this…”

“How…”

I wasn’t too interested in their reaction.

Just fold your arms and nod your head.

“Also.”

Expectations were coming in handy.

As I nodded, Zephron asked.

“Did you know… did you?”

I only turned my eyes to look at him.

I knew it… How can I explain it?

I have no way to explain.

I opted for a rough look.

“It’s just an inference. The expected path was like that.”

“Haha. You already knew about the devil. It’s wonderful.”

What else is so far……

With his mouth shut in embarrassment, Zephron continued.

“Sir Rohan. Actually, I was risking my life and death for this incident. Here…in this graveyard they dug up, the first child of our family is buried. Right after he was born, he never opened his eyes and saw no light. It was a life that passed away without being seen.”

His eyes, which had been spitting out words, turned bloody in an instant.

That was it.

Zephron’s eyes I remember.

“They’ve trampled the child’s soul! Dare…! Dare!”

But those eyes quickly disappeared.

“I was almost possessed by a mad rage against the devil. I endured it thinking of the second child I had barely gained. However, I have not yet forgiven it. The church’s teaching is to always forgive, but… It was difficult because it was lacking.”

Again he looked at me.

“I must find the culprit behind all of this and avenge the first child! If there is anything I need to find him, just tell me! And…and! Just find him!”

I also faced him.

I knew he was a rabid Heretic Inquisitor.

But I didn’t know that such things had happened.

‘So…… if you look at the devil that much, your eyes go back.’

I got it.

That trembling voice was conveyed with sincerity.

How resentful we must be for the devil who torments even the souls of our dead children so that they cannot rest in peace.

I put my finger on the last point.

The place that will be the place of decisive battle.

“There’s no need to look for it. Gather all your troops right now. Let the Holy Knights and Black Iron Knights know that we will subdue the lich.”

After that.

added the last word.

“Whether demons or monsters, we will clearly show that they need our permission to set foot on this land.”

A twinkle appeared in their eyes.

“Thank you! Lord Rohan! The Paladins of Oldrion will follow you!”

“The Dark Iron Knights! Under the command of His Excellency Count Soleon, we will fight to the death with the Arlem Church!”

* * *

Cheek-duk, Cheol-guk-duk!

Holy Knights and Dark Iron Knights.

The two knights advanced as if they were one legion.

at the forefront of them.

It was Diaz, me, Zephron Inquisitor, and Knight Commander Vincent.

We mounted our horses and headed for Lich Lair, where Horikedon was waiting.

Diaz spoke next to me.

“Rohan.”

“Well?”

“That’s the thief… I didn’t see it…”

Are you talking about Levarsen?

But that was something I didn’t know.

After removing the Grave Keeper, there has been no notification.

“I don’t know.”

“You don’t want to tell me… I understand.”

“I really don’t know.”

“Yes……”

what?

I think I’m a bit squeamish.

I tilted my head.

‘I don’t have anything to complain about. It must be my mistake?’

However, there was no time to pay attention to Diaz.

I quickly averted my gaze and focused.

‘Horike Dawn…is a really big wall.’

It was different from before.

He was a man worthy of the nickname of the one-man army.

Hell’s 9th Corps Chief of Staff, Horike Dawn.

Horike Dawn was responsible for half of the 9th Legion’s undead power.

The specter and the undead army, who knew neither death nor fear, were by no means easygoing guys.

Although the knights following me were all elite, they were definitely lacking in numbers.

‘I have to do well…’

I glanced left and right.

At least, it was a great comfort that Zefron and Diaz were together.

These two were talented people who would never be pushed back even compared to Horike Dawn.

‘after! Still, it’s reassuring.’

while making a commitment.

Our combined knights arrived in front of a small graveyard.

* * *

Aww!

A crow roared across the sky.

Even though the sun is clearly rising, the tall trees made this place as if it were night.

Although it looked like a small graveyard from the outside.

In reality it was not.

below this earth.

The high-ranking Lich, Horikedon, must be waiting for the right time.

I got off my horse and stepped into the cemetery.

Numerous knights followed behind me.

The cemetery was silent, and the march continued.

Jerk, jerk.

No one raised a voice.

Even without a third eye, everyone seemed to feel this gloomy aura.

The gloomy atmosphere further heightened the tension.

I, too, was nervous.

That’s why I was more alert.

‘It was impossible in the game…but now it’s a reality. Go the shortest way!’

I made a guess about the possible location of Horikedon.

Then, get down on one knee and sit down.

He started hitting the floor with his left arm.

bang! bang! bang!

Those who did not understand my actions whispered behind my back.

However, Diaz, Zephron, and Knight Commander Vincent watched me silently.

Not long after.

Kururureung……!

I thought the floor would collapse.

A path was revealed inside of it.

“In the basement…!”

“There was something like that.”

“That’s why I couldn’t find it.”

I flung myself under it.

Behind me, Diaz, Zephron, Vincent, the Knight Commander, and the Alliance Knights followed.

chin! Tuuk!

As we descended, a long hallway greeted us.

The quick-witted Zephron noticed the terrain here.

“This…isn’t it like a maze?”

Knight Commander Vincent nodded.

“Yes. I think so.”

Deep down I was surprised.

I know this inside, but isn’t this the moment they first come into contact with this place?

But you know at a glance.

Jjambab looked like jjambab.

But there was no room for admiration.

Because the location I wanted wasn’t here.

‘I was going to enter the central boss room right away. A little bit off.’

Still, it was close to reaching the destination.

While I regained my sense of direction, Knight Commander Vincent looked around and asked.

“Sir Rohan. Why don’t we send scouting troops to both sides?”

I approach the wall

I shook my head.

“There’s no need for that.”

comprehension is already over.

Swing your left arm again.

aaang!

pierced the road

“Here you go.”

“…Ah…yes…”

After going over the wall, I could see that I was now right in front of the real boss room.

It doesn’t look like there are still torches following.

The Skeleton Legion was standing in front of me now.

The third eye responded first.

Because it is a life-threatening risk.

As expected, let the torches strike through the path I made.

Tadak!

Wood deuk……

Geeky Geek…!

The skeletons turned their heads this way.

In the eyes of the white skull, I could see maggots crawling.

The remaining flesh created a disgusting atmosphere.

“S, it’s a skeleton!”

“Prepare for battle!”

Window, cha-cha-window!

The knights reacted immediately and pulled out their swords.

However, in my senses, their fear was acutely felt.

It wasn’t that I didn’t understand.

in the basement of the cemetery.

How could he not be afraid when he faced the Skeleton Legion?

It’s me, but that fear has faded a little because of the fury against the demon that creeps up.

they wouldn’t be

It was a little disappointing.

right before the battle.

In moments like these, these scams didn’t help.

I catch my breath

I went a step further.

OK.

“Keeeaek!”

“Kyaaagh!”

The skeletons glowed with blue eyes.

With my eyes fixed on those guys, I shouted with all my might.

towards the knights standing behind me.

“I will be in the vanguard.”

In an instant, everyone’s eyes turned to my back.

I spoke.

Words that will boost their morale.

“I salute you for your courage to face death even though you are alive. Show them your determination! Awaken the fear of death again to the demons who have forgotten death!”

I clenched my left arm tightly.

Raised black thunder.

Rumble…… Kwawagagagagagang!

Magnificent thunder that shook the entire underground raged around me.

I was the first to jump forward, with the left arm of the colossus shining with golden light in front.

“All, kill.”

and.

The United Knights behind me, forgetting my fear before I knew it.

“Turn around!”

“Bring them back to death!”

“Make them bone fragments! Wipe them out!”

The advance began.
