chapter 4
4 – Death News
– A player has died. [Demon King’s Wrath] The curse is removed.
– The sacrifice (player) connected to the Demon King’s Crystal Orb has died.
– The Demon King’s crystal ball seal is rapidly weakening.
– The crystal ball seal of the Demon King will be released after 312 hours. To maintain the seal, inject mana into the crystal ball.
– First clear reward: [Unique Privilege: Resurrection] is used.
– Recovers all damage and revives only once.
“Whoa…”
The only privilege not told to others [Resurrection]
This is an ability that can only be used by me in the world. Others don’t even know that this ability exists.
‘I thought that something might happen, so I kept it a secret that I could use the Resurrection privilege for other people, but this is so helpful.’
Thanks to my resurrection after death, the link with my body that was connected as a sacrifice for the demon king’s seal was also released, and the demon king’s curse that was hung because of the seal was also lifted.
– Tiring!
– You have achieved the achievement.
[Two lives]
▶Condition: You must die once and be resurrected.
▶Reward: [Skill] Acquire a virtual face
[virtual face]
▶You can freely change your appearance whenever you want. * It will not be detected by magic detection, etc. *Cannot be changed to other genders.
‘It’s the same as in the game.’
In the game, if you use the unique privilege resurrection, you can acquire virtual face skills like this. The reason I died was not only to lift the curse, but also for this achievement.
I tried using the skill as soon as I got it.
[Virtual face]
– The face is replaced.
‘Wow, it’s really amazing to see it in real life’
I looked in the mirror and saw the face of a handsome man with a sharp jawline. It doesn’t feel like a bast. In fact, when I pulled the flesh, the flesh grew longer, and when I cut the wound, the wound opened realistically. It was literally transformed into a new face.
[Disable virtual face]
– Returns to the original face.
‘Hyuntaone’
When I turned off the virtual face, I returned to my original face, which looked ugly.
[Virtual face]
– The face is replaced.
‘Oh.’
This time, his face changed to a man with a middle-aged appearance.
‘With this skill, you will be able to spend enough time in other goddess kingdoms.’
Even if the goddess didn’t really pursue me, I was a madman who tried to attack the goddess of a goddess country. If I actually go to another goddess country with my face, I’m sure I’ll be expelled.
So when you go to another goddess country, the virtual face skill will be of great help.
‘Once the face is resolved. You’ll also have to figure out your identity. Let’s think about this slowly as we go to another goddess country…’
‘What about that body?’
The only privilege [Resurrection] is to literally [resurrect] all wounds into a whole body.
Simply put, the original dead body remains in the state of a corpse, and all parts are revived as if they were cloned into a completely healed new body.
I saw my body in front of me. He was stabbed with a knife and bleeding.
‘If possible, I’ll eat it using it.’
If Goddess Abelida pursues me, it may be quite troublesome.
After getting a new face, I thought that I would be able to travel comfortably without any restrictions on my actions if I left the original body dead to wash my identity.
-Masterpiece
I wrote a will while sitting down.
– To everyone. I have a lot of resentment and resentment, I can’t get anything in my hands, and everything just feels empty. I trusted you, and no one believed in me. So I decided. To die, goodbye and you guys are fine please be happy
.
.
.
I folded the will that I wrote hesitantly and hesitantly and put it in my body.
‘Okay, if I do this, it will look like I’ve committed suicide because I’m unfair, right? If you decorate it as if you died because of unfairness and resentment, then goddess Abelida won’t be very suspicious. She doesn’t know that I have the privilege of resurrection, and her motives are plausible.’
When goddess Abelida finds my body, she will of course think I’m dead, so she can completely block the pursuit of her in the future.
‘Perfect. I’m leaving now. f*cking bastards, if the demon lord resurrects after the seal is lifted, you’ll figure it out on your own. Because I will watch it carefully from the other goddess kingdom.’
I can change my face, so I don’t mind staying inside this Goddess Office, but I didn’t want to. In the first place, this place was also a place where the demon king’s seal would soon be released and it would become a mess, because it was disgusting to even breathe for a moment.
‘After…’
Suddenly, I remembered the streets of the slums of this Goddess Country where I used to go to volunteer a lot. Until I was cursed, I would periodically roam the streets for the poor and needy, handing out money, and offering many holy waters to the sick.
‘Suddenly I wonder how you are doing.’
After being cursed for sealing the Demon King, I was not able to visit there naturally. Because of that, I hardly know about the news from there.
‘Before I leave for another goddess country, I’ll have to stop by that slum again.’
***
Where Eun-chan Kang left, Min-seo Han, Da-hee Choi, Na-yun Heo, and Ye-seul Lee, who were his former warrior party members, gathered together and talked.
Han Min-seo talked.
“By the way, did the hero really commit such a heinous thing? The mass embezzlement of holy water to be provided to the slums. When I think about it, something strange comes to mind.”
Then Dahee Choi answered.
“Honestly… I don’t want to believe it either, but we’ve all seen it. A huge amount of holy water goes into the hero’s house every day…”
Lee Ye-seul also agreed.
“I also witnessed the mass distribution of holy water to his house. But now that it’s a curse, it’s not reasonable. The warrior never said anything like that to us. If the curse had been true, he would have told us ahead of time and asked for help.”
At that time, Nayun Heo spoke quietly.
“What would you do if… by any chance, you were really under a curse?”
“….”
“What if it wasn’t that he was addicted to mana and embezzled holy water, but whoever was wrong?”
“I can’t.”
When Ye-seul Lee spoke firmly, Na-yoon Heo cried and cried.
“How can you be so sure right away? If, by any chance, the hero is not addicted to holy water, but simply cursed, what are you going to do then?”
Then, Han Min Seo looked at her and answered in her low voice.
“Heo Na-yun. Why are you doing this now? You also testified at the temple that you witnessed the hero’s sins.”
“That’s… because I actually saw it… After the hero defeated the Demon King, he almost cut off contact with us, and I went to see him every day. But he just yelled at me not to come. So I thought it was odd. Why the hell is he doing this all of a sudden… But after a while, a huge amount of holy water has moved to the hero’s house. So I thought. He drank holy water with joy from the joy that the hero had killed the demon king, and eventually got addicted, and he did it because he didn’t want to show himself …”
“After thinking that way, why are you changing your mind now? Your thoughts are reasonable. In the first place, you know Kang Eun-chan’s usual appearance. She’s cursed by her strong man like him, I can’t even imagine. Even the curse that Kang Eun-chan claims to have caught is a curse that is felt until she dies, as if her whole body is engulfed with fire every second. In fact, if he was under such a curse, he would need a huge amount of holy water, but Kang Eun-chan has never been sick except for a short period of aches after subjugating the Demon King. It was after quite some time had passed since the subjugation of the Demon Lord that he started to distance us.”
“What if I was forced to endure the recoil of the curse rather than the body aches?…”
Lee Ye-seul looked at Heo Na-yoon as if embarrassed.
“You know that’s nonsense, right? How can she endure such suffering so relentlessly that she is seen as an anguish to others? “
“If… what if you endured it? What if it’s just something that hasn’t been revealed for us?…”
“…. such a premise is meaningless. Because it can’t be. Even the hero attacked the goddess. Whatever the cause, this is clearly treason.”
Heo Na-yun cried and cried.
“I know! That it was her treason that attacked the goddess. So you stopped it! You even stabbed the hero with a sword!”
Han Min-seo shouted.
“Then what do you mean in that situation? Are you saying you should have watched the goddess’s hair fall? If such a thing occurs, not only the hero, but also those of us who are related to him, as well as those around us, will be beheaded. The goddesses of other goddess kingdoms that were allies would never have stood still.”
Heo Na-yoon looked at Han Min-seo and spoke.
“I didn’t attack. I was swept away by the atmosphere and testified, but it was because I wanted the hero to repent of his sins and get rid of mana addiction.”
“Ttt. If you were framed as you said, do you think that would be an indulgence? You are just like us. And don’t keep saying weird things. Since the testimony of the goddess’ representative came out, the guilt is clear.”
Dahee Choi, who couldn’t see, mediated the two.
“Everyone stop… This is not the time for us to fight. If there was any misunderstanding, we should ask for forgiveness. Even before he became addicted to holy water, the hero was a kind, compassionate, and wonderful person… If it was a real misunderstanding, if we explain our situation in detail, he will surely understand…”
However, Yoon grabbed the tail of his horse.
“It’s not certain that I am addicted to holy water, so don’t talk like that between us. I was swept up in the atmosphere by the words of the goddess’ representative who suddenly came to me at dawn and asked for a testimony, but I still haven’t asked the hero properly. ”
Han Min-seo looked at Heo Na-yun and talked.
“Now, are you doubting the testimony of the Goddess Vicar?”
Dahee Choi spoke with a sigh.
“Both of you are really going to stop now… Na-Yun Heo, why are you doing this now… Even if we were framed, in the eyes of the hero, we’re all the same people… And if you’re worried about it, call me. What more can we hear in the presence of the testimony of the goddess representative?”
Heo Na-yoon made a call while ignoring Han Min-seo’s words.
–
–
“Please accept it please….”
–
–
-After the beep sound because the customer is absent…
Heo Na-yoon felt ominous and called again.
–
–
-click
At that moment, I heard the phone being connected.
-Yo… Hero! It’s me! I called because there was something I wanted to ask…
But what I heard was the voice of a completely stranger. He limped with each word, as if he was looking at something terribly frightening.
– I… Do you know the owner of this phone and ah…?
Heo Na-yun asked a question.
-That’s right… Who are you?
-W… There are a lot of people here who are hurt… Dude… I think you should come soon…
-Woo-Wook
In an instant, a man’s vomit was heard over the phone.
– Hello? What’s the matter? Are you hurt? why? How hurt are you? Did you call an ambulance?
– Ugh… I’m sorry… It’s the first time I’ve seen something like this… Gu… I called an ambulance… But when I saw the condition, I thought he was dead… First of all, the location is ….”
-Bang-!
As soon as he heard the location, however, Yoon ran out to the place his man had been talking about.
“What’s going on?”
The other girls, who didn’t hear the phone call properly, stared blankly at the place where Na-yoon Heo left.
“For now, let’s go too.”
After that, they followed Nayun Heo.
