This Is Not a Game Chapter 57

What is peaceful coexistence? … .

Of course, the Lizardmen were not merciful enough to just let someone run away.

‘There are a lot of other guys, so why is it that guy?’

Yuseong bit his lip at the sight of Nord chasing after him, leaving many warriors behind.

“Sisit! catch it! Be sure to catch it! Don’t miss a single one!”

“The wine of the advent of the vengeful spirit!”

“Kee!”

Dozens of ghosts rushed at him screaming grotesquely dizzying screams, but Yoosung, who had a high mental stat, didn’t even blink an eye at the screams of the ghosts and just punched him indifferently.

Yuseong, who continued to run away from the chase, finally stopped walking after confirming that no one was left around.

“stop.”

A method of vocalization with the feeling of exhaling all the air in the lungs.

Simply hearing and understanding a language is a completely different matter from speaking the language properly.

In the face of differences in pronunciation when even the same human beings speak a language, there is a possibility that they may not be able to understand even if the vocal organs speak the language of a different race as similarly as possible.

But fortunately, the Lizardmen stopped in place with a puzzled look on their faces.

“Did you just say our words? If you understand what I mean, say it again.”

“Yes. I know how to speak to you.”

“It’s hard to understand, but we’re definitely right. I never thought I would meet a human who could speak our language in another world. Where the hell did you learn that?”

“Isn’t that what’s important right now? Did you say High Priest Nord? I have a few questions I want to ask you.”

“Don’t you think it’s polite to give your name and identity first if you want to talk?”

After thinking for a while, Yoosung spoke in a slightly depressed voice.

“My name is Yuseong Han. I am a citizen of Korea… … .”

“Is that all? At least, do you have any other positions?”

“That is all.”

“Originally, it is impossible for the lower class to mix words with the upper class, but this time is an exceptional situation, so there is nothing we can do about it. You, Han Yuseong. What do you want to ask?”

“The lower class… … . No, that’s it.”

Yuseong shook his head as he tried to explain how much wealth he had.

It is because I realized that the meaning of class that Nord spoke of did not refer to a lot of wealth or a small amount of wealth.

“If you retreat earlier, they said they would let you go safely, or even if you went into battle, you seem to have tried to capture them alive without killing them. What the hell is your intention?”

“We were simply doing our duty to stop the reckless intruders who were defiled on our sacred grounds. Seeing blood needlessly is not what we want.”

“A ruthless intruder? Hey, I think you’re misunderstanding something. It wasn’t us who broke in first, but you? Where do you think this city is now?”

“I apologize for that part. However, our arrival here was not our will, but an accident.”

As expected, unlike the monsters who unconditionally hostile to humans, they were a heterogeneous race equipped with intellect and reason and being able to think.

“accident?”

“There is a long circumstance, so it is not worth briefly explaining it here. If I had to say it, it could be explained that only this city managed to escape from the great cataclysm of the end of the world.”

‘I think we can finish without fighting if we do well?’

Happening that happened because the conversation didn’t go through.

There was some damage, but not enough to cross a river of no return.

‘Yeah, it’s not good to blindly look at someone with prejudice just because they look different from us. A civilized person should be able to resolve the situation through dialogue.’

It is an obvious cliché to have a fruitless fight due to a conversation that does not work or a minor misunderstanding, only to realize the truth after time and regret it.

Yuseong, who had read these stories many times, asked in a more gentle voice, thinking that peaceful coexistence with the Lizardmen might be possible.

“What are you going to do if humans say they want to talk?”

“Of course I will accept it. We suffered a lot of damage and consumed a lot of resources by wandering through the cracks of space for a long time. A futile fight is not what we want. If it is possible to talk, it would be best to solve it through dialogue. But isn’t that possible?”

“Why do you think it won’t work? I’ll arrange a place where I can talk with the ruling class of humans.”

“You? But didn’t you say you were of the lower class?”

“There is one upper class I know. If you go through him, you will be able to convey your will to the ruling class of humans.”

Kang Chang-seok.

As he is also a user, he will be able to talk with Lizardman, and since he is wearing the grandiose guise of being the president of the Korea Contractors Association, he will be able to get in touch with politicians.

Your role is right there

What happens after that will be decided by the so-called high-ranking people.

“Is that true?”

“Have you been deceived? Of course it’s true.”

Nord, who had always had a cold expression on his face, said with a faint smile at Yoosung’s confident appearance.

“If you succeed in resolving this situation through dialogue instead of fighting as you think, I will reward you appropriately.”

“Good reward. What?”

“As the temporary ruler of Dragonia and the high priest of the Cult of Dragons, I promise you the first-class citizenship of Dragonia and the position of governor of the country you want.”

“… … viceroy?”

Yoosung, who had been laughing, hardened as he heard Nord’s words.

I think I heard something very strange, but it was because it was so out of common sense that my brain couldn’t understand it right away.

“Is that not enough? I have a lot of greed. Okay, I don’t know how big this planet is, but I’ll give you one more country you want. Will this be enough?”

“There is one more question I want to ask you.”

“Ask me anything.”

“If the conversation goes well and you are allowed to stay in this world, what are you planning to do next?”

“Of course we have to resurrect Dragonia.”

“How exactly does that resurrection happen?”

“We need to change the planet’s ecology to suit the Balaur, spread the Balaur’s civilization, and manage the natives by classifying them according to their ability and use. It will take a long time, but it is possible.”

Yuseong, who nodded and listened to Nord’s words, finally grasped the whole situation and broke into a cold sweat.

‘They were crazy imperialists! Peaceful coexistence is nothing! For some reason, I wanted it to look strange. lizard? At first glance, he looks sinister!’

Whether it was a human or a different race, it was the law to play as it was created.

“Why are you backing down?”

“There is no way to contact the outside world here, right? Shouldn’t we be able to convey your will to the outside world once we get out of here?”

“That is difficult. You are the only human who can speak our language. If you go out and some misfortune happens, peaceful negotiations between us and the natives will be impossible. You remain here, and we will send out the captives one by one, so let them convey our will.”

“Ah, there was a way! I didn’t think of that.”

“… … .”

silence for a while.

And after a while, a cruel smile appeared on Nord’s face.

“I’m thinking of running away. right?”

bang!

At the same time as the tail struck the ground, the ground began to shake as if an earthquake had occurred.

While hesitating for a moment to balance himself, Yoosung avoided the staff flying toward his chest and stared at Nord with an absurd expression.

‘A priest attacking with a weapon?’

For a while, Yuseong, who calmly removed the attack and tried to counterattack, realized that something was wrong after sharing a few battles and defenses.

Nord, far from being pushed back by his own attack, was rather perfectly receiving and counter-pressing.

“What kind of a priest fights so well?”

“If you think that a priest is weak in melee combat, you are mistaken. As a guardian of Dragonia, this level of martial arts is a basic requirement. You seem to be a warrior, but should you be pushed back by the priest?”

“Kuk!”

Yoosung gritted his teeth.

Among the skills she has, there are only two skills directly related to taijutsu.

There are only Type 16 Amwul, the assassination weapon of Over-Technology Worldview agents, and the martial arts of the academy cadets.

In the meantime, I didn’t feel the need to learn a new skill because I could deal with these two skills enough, such as Deep One, Archangel, orc warrior, or I only dealt with extreme enemies that were out of the standard, such as foreign gods and crazy witches, but at this moment Meteor had no choice but to sincerely regret such past choices.

hooked!

A stick stuck in a vital spot.

Despite getting rid of the pain by cutting the pain, the momentary stiffness was unavoidable, and in the meantime Nord approached and grabbed Meteor’s neck.

No, I was trying to catch it.

Cheer!

“What?”

A shock like an electric shock.

While Nord was shocked and stiff, he opened the flashlight and quickly opened the distance.

‘It’s not an opponent you can beat with your current skills. run away.’

Of course, it was easier said than done.

The enraged Nord was roaring and chasing after at terrifying speed.

It is impossible to escape from this situation unless you have the ability to rise into the sky or fall to the ground.

Of course, Yoosung didn’t have that kind of talent.

Instead, there was a talent that surpassed the two, literally on a different level.

‘It’s enough to go to another dimension.’

Yooseong with a fishy smile took out the goggles he had been keeping in his arms and put them on.

[Access to the multidimensional navigation system.]

[The quest observation was successful.]

– The clan was annihilated by the ancestors. I want revenge at any cost.

– 195 death squads who want to escape from the Pandemonium.

-The gate opened and monsters appeared. Is this a true story?

-The Heretic Questioner took my younger brother.

-… … .

The reason Yooseong readily accepted the mission despite not knowing what the risks might be.

It wasn’t just an impulsive decision made because I didn’t want to follow Kang Chang-seok’s words, but it was thanks to the user’s ability to guarantee a perfect escape no matter what situation happened.

‘Which quest should I choose?’

As the priority was to get away from Nord’s pursuit right away, it was enough to pick any quest within the appropriate grade, but Meteor couldn’t pick a quest hastily.

Simply running away is not satisfying.

He thought it would be nice to be able to fill in the lack of both sides while doing the quest.

‘If it’s a skill related to close combat, the Moorim world view would be better. But in order to acquire skills, you cannot simply look at your rank. You need to know what kind of person your client is… … .’

bang!

familiar sound.

At the same time as he lifted his body into the air, the ground he was on just before began to shake.

It didn’t take long to stay in the air, but in the meantime, the distance was considerably reduced.

In the end, Yoosung had no choice but to choose a moderately noticeable quest.

[‘The youngest disciple of Jincheon’s martial arts’ begins.]

[Activate the Deus Ex Machina program.]

[Dimensional coordinates specified and connection of Ariadne’s thread completed.]

[Spirit moves.]

“… … what is this?”

I just turned a corner.

I only missed it out of sight for a moment, but it was an absurd situation in which the prey that I had caught disappeared without a trace.
