I Killed the Heroine in the Game

chapter 160



160 – 25: I met a new spirit. Actually, it’s not completely new.

I’ll briefly tell you what happened after that.

After washing our little boy’s hands, the main character and I went around to look around the academy. While Hwadeokjin and the protagonist were talking about something, they ended up talking about Gyeongcheon, a class A casting maker.

The reason was nothing special. Gyeongcheon left the room for a while, saying that he had urgent business to attend to.

Meanwhile, the main character, A, knows exactly who the casting maker named Gyeongcheon created the A-grade castings is. And how did she come to be favored, she asked.

In response, Hwadeokjin told a story about Gyeongcheon, which he cherished, to a human who became close to him for the first time outside of the relationship between a believer and a god.

When Gyeongcheon was young, his family was killed by an evil spirit and he almost died. Hwadeokjin’s army happened to pass nearby and rescued Gyeongcheon.

Gyeongcheon expressed his gratitude to Hwadeokjingun, and it is said that with her blessing, he was able to become the best casting maker and exorcist who is favored by Hwadeokjingun.

If you just listen to this, it is a heartwarming story that will be used to create an image of the divine spirit in this world, and it seems like a reasonable reason for Gyeongcheon to faithfully follow the orders of the Hwadeokjingun.

Just hearing that, it was strange to see that he had skepticism about the existence of spirits and clearly drew the line that they were beings that could not coexist with humans.

I quietly followed behind, thinking something was strange, but soon I realized the reason.

“That child’s talent was truly great. Even I had no choice but to admit it. Perhaps even after 1,000 years, he will still be that child. No human being with talent at the level of Gyeongcheon will ever be born.

So I told him to make fetishes instead of fighting to avenge his family.

I know that family is important to humans, but you fight against evil spirits with that talent. It’s a big loss to the humans of this world, right? I also didn’t want to see Gyeongcheon die…….

Well, I was a little reluctant at first. I told him that he would reap blessings if he did not pursue the path of a foundry maker, so he gave up.

And even though that child is said to be recycled, he even created his A-class casting with his own hands! “Isn’t it amazing?!”

Oh. That’s how it was.

Hwadeokjin spoke about Gyeongcheon as if he was boasting and with concern.

I realized that the main character and I were not just saying that we had an argument because we had different paths, but now things are okay.

Hwadeok Jin-gun became an exorcist to avenge his family, but he was tormented by a man named Gyeong-cheon who had different talents than he wanted.

Although he had such talent, he seemed unable to understand why he would not give up revenge.

Rather than being a sociopath, he seemed to not know what was wrong.

No, is that a sociopath? In this case, it’s just because you’re talking like sh*t, so is it any different?

Stop sharing the names of diseases you don’t even know about. Now, let’s think about it.

The god who saved the boy who was lost to an evil spirit in his family and even gave him a blessing told the boy to make a fetish instead of taking revenge.

How did this come to the young boy? Even without looking, I could tell that the boy himself denied that he had any talent and that many things had happened.

This is not important. The most important thing is the following:

The saying of reaping blessings means that for Hwadeokjin, the work your beloved child is trying to do is dangerous and he has no talent, so stop. What I said with that feeling, now seems to be my attitude.

For other people, ordinary humans, it would not have ended at that level.

This is a world where a tree makes headlines for giving a blessing to a little boy.

But what would happen if such a god ‘threatened’ to withdraw his blessings again?

Probably something was done at the national level. Even if Gaeddong Grandma had not done anything, the exorcism office and other things that would have been fine at the time would have added Kusari.

Things that can be easily imagined even without looking at them passed through my mind, and I was able to understand why Gyeongcheon reacted that way while following Hwadeokjin’s words.

So, roughly speaking, a powerful and influential person with a social disability gave advice to a child he cared about, and this is what happened.

“…… But since then. Unlike when Gyeongcheon was young, he started to feel something distant……. Even when I talk to Gyeongcheon, something is different.

Even if I smile, it doesn’t even seem like I’m smiling. It definitely didn’t feel like this before, more so. Hmm. Something was different…….”

Seeing her say that her heart didn’t even seem empty at that time, for the first time in my life, sympathy for Namjeongne started to well up in me, but then disappeared.

Even though it’s only now, I vaguely remember the story of Hwadeokjin, which my younger brother talked about next to me while I was trying to sleep.

Unfortunate fate…… As a player character, Hwadeokjin makes Gyeongcheon aware of the mistake he made and resolves his relationship with Gyeongcheon.

Gods are not inhuman, they simply do not know anything.

Even though they were evil spirits, they shared emotions even though their essences were different. You don’t have to kill them like normal evil spirits, but if you can talk to them and understand them, you can definitely coexist.

You say it’s a story with such content and lessons?

I remembered that when I was trying to sleep, I seriously thought about cutting off the hair of my younger brother who was telling me that this is not a good lesson.

But since he was my younger brother, I kicked him with the intention of breaking his middle leg instead of his head.

When I think about it now, I feel sorry for my sister-in-law. At the time, she thought that bastard had nothing better to do with her life than catch her daughter.

Anyway, what I want to say is this.

“…… Mr. Hwadeokjin. “Do you want to make peace with Cheong-cheong?”

“Woe…… Sun? Surely this means we should stop fighting and let our feelings out with each other, right? Was I fighting Gyeongcheon?

…… No, you didn’t mean it that way. This…… Huh. I want to do reconciliation. “I honestly don’t know if Gyeongcheon is really angry.”

That guy, the main character. How dare you try to reconcile people who are wronged like that. That’s not usually courageous.

No matter how close the friends are, if they fight, it is difficult for the person caught in the middle to reconcile them.

If a third party vaguely tries to reconcile a person while they are fighting, the relationship often falls apart or they are treated like a traitor.

The main character is really great. If it were me, I wouldn’t have made that choice.

I saw the main character confidently tell his spirit what he had done wrong.

Rather than simply saying, ‘People are like that!’, He answered why Gyeongcheon was sad and why this relationship developed.

Why mourn over a more rational choice? Me. Why do humans care so much about things like family? Even when asked questions like this that would make him feel bad, he answered them without even showing any signs of discomfort.

Watching a calm conversation that made me think that he would have been good not only as an exorcist but also as a psychiatrist, I realized that the kind of person who can pursue a harem route even if their gender is different is that kind of person.

Of course, Hwadeokjin could not understand everything after a few minutes of conversation.

But as he looked at himself for the first time in his life, it was wrong, and he seemed to feel something as he watched the main character tell him what the other person must have felt.

If I think about the web novels I have read so far, something will happen and what happened to Gyeongcheon or Hwadeokjin will be resolved.

It was a sight that convinced me once again that the choice to introduce Hwadeokjin to the main character was definitely not the wrong choice – but what did I do in the middle of it all?

“But I heard that the old man has a grade A fetish. Why don’t you use it regularly? “You didn’t use it last time either.”

“Don’t call me old man, just call me Maehwa. More than that, why don’t I use casting…… “If you use it, there will be more work to do after using it.”

“…… ?”

“What I’m using is an item called the Seven Star Sword… It was a fetish given to the strongest exorcist in the Joseon Dynasty, but…

Unlike being used as a ceremonial tool, it is an object that can actually change the laws of heaven and even distort the earth and sky.

But. Think about it. Suddenly day turns into night and it is a class A casting that can split the ocean.

Imagine that the sea really split. So, what happens next? All kinds of natural disasters occur, starting with a damn tsunami!

Even if you don’t use those abilities! This thing is a 14 meter diameter thing that only knows how to fire spiritual energy! “What is so good about all the A-class castings around the world that they just blast out ridiculously large beams?”

“You’re crazy. But then, does that belong to Gaeddong’s grandmother?”

“Of course not! This is an item that can be passed on to a successor if there is permission from the royal family.

Well, since the Lee family disappeared a long time ago, I guess I’ll have to do it! In the end, I’m not the owner of the Seven Star Sword, I just gained permission to use it, so if I’m sufficiently competent, I can hand it over, so it’s fine – but why are you doing that? Do you want it?”

“Aha…… Was it something like that? Oh, no need. But then, if the old man suddenly gets into big trouble like last time, I think it will happen as it is.”

“Huh? What are you talking about? You said you just got the permission, so just hand it over…… What. For a moment. “It’s okay that I’ve remained the owner for so long, am I right?”

While chatting behind the scenes, I was able to resolve the questions I had been having.

TIP In the original story told by Chang, I found out the name of the fetish that Gaetong went on a rampage saying that she would choose the owner after her grandmother died.

The Seven Star Sword. When I think of Chilseong, the only thing that comes to mind is cider, so I wasn’t interested in anything more than that.

Unlike me, Gaeddong’s grandmother seemed to be panicking as she thought about what would happen to the fetish she had owned for a long time if she died –

In the end, it is a monumental scene where another spirit takes the first step toward understanding others, but Gaeddongi and I are just taking a break and having a small chat.

It was difficult to say anything from the side, and my purpose was to take Cheongryong around the academy and see how the classes were going and what the facilities were like.

If one side is a youth fantasy, this side is a parent meeting for a child to enter school.

It’s a good thing. It’s not bad. It is a scenery that can be said to be a peaceful daily life.

But I had no choice but to care. If this is an event that occurred in the original game story, something will definitely happen.

What will happen? I glanced at Hwadeok Jin-gun, who continued to worry deeply, and then patted the blue dragon’s head.

Just like Grandma Gaeddong said, it’s time for the corpse snake to move slowly, so something big will happen in the future.

More than anything else, it makes me sick to think of the damn thing he would enjoy killing people with the power he stole from my kid, but he is an evil spirit that cannot be chased away even by the government itself.

If we meet again next time, we will really have to make a life-or-death decision.

[Quest arrival]

< Those who want to throw this world into chaos are targeting you. Their plan is- ■■■■■…… This poses a great risk to the player. >

< For the player’s safety, ‘Imaemangryang’, a group of A-class demons, and ‘Corpse Snake’, a ghost-class demon. Avoid the Class A possessed body ‘The Nameless Man’. >

< This is an additional deal. Please make a humane choice. If you will listen to me, I will give you what every human being wants.

Money. Power, woman. Comfortable life. I can give you everything. Instead of doing it here, we will let you get it back in the original world.

Don’t all humans want that? Isn’t that what a normal human being is?

Exploiting, trampling, ridiculing, and enjoying mean pleasures of others for one’s own gain. That is pure humanity.

Do not deny it. Please accept the quest. >

[ Do you want to accept? YES / NO ]

“… ….”

The window that came to mind while I was thinking about such random things. I read the quest window and felt a shiver run down my spine.

Transaction. When I see that word, something pricks my mind deeply.

The words in the quest window didn’t feel like they were begging me to listen to them or getting angry like before.

My intuition tells me. This is close to an ultimatum.

As if there is something dangerous beyond the door that can be opened lightly, my intuition and the sixth sense I have developed since coming into this world tell me of danger. You must not refuse this. It felt like I was saying that in my head.

But.

“Captain…… ? Are you okay? I don’t like my face… ….”

I suddenly stopped and saw Wooshin blinking his eyes, worried about me.

I smiled and stroked Wooshin’s head, then proudly pressed the NO button on the flashing YES and NO option window as if urging me to make a choice.

—-

< You will regret it. >

—-

A window floated with the message that it was the end. The window that appeared as if it was going to make you regret it gave it a clunky feel.

I stood there for a moment and rolled my eyes. I know it’s wise to avoid it if you know it’s dangerous. Isn’t it possible to avoid the other person because they are afraid of the people who messed with our little boy?

The biggest reason why I pressed the NO button right now is none other than –

“I also hate this guy.”

First of all, the way you talk is annoying. All humans are like that because of their mean-spirited passion. What the hell.

I have no intention of denying it, but you too, right? Since you asked with certainty, you want to do the opposite even more.

My younger brother would look at me like this and say, “I think my brother is crazy.” Do you know anything?

“I don’t like someone. Leader? “I will scold you!”

I laughed as I watched the tennis ball stuck in Wooshin’s horn shake as he waved his hand in surprise after hearing my small muttering.
