How to Survive as a Player Chapter 138

#138

[I have something to show you tomorrow. Today, you can all stay here to spend time in Yeodokdo.]

Thanks to this, all attendees, including Sehyeon, followed Agatha’s words and stayed in the cavalry empire. In the rooms on either side of Sehyeon, residences were prepared for the retainers and Ruhak thanks to Agasa’s kind consideration.

Jaeyoung Lee was so excited that it felt like he was on a picnic. It was a night when I grabbed his hand and started running, but Baek Do-hyun’s pitiful gaze felt like an eyesore.

Naturally, the agenda did not yield very good results. However, the result cannot be said to be very bad.

Hold.

The majority vote was split exactly in half. A situation where there are 19 supporters and 19 opponents. Even though Agasa and Fan took Sehyun’s side and raised their hands, in the end the agenda was not passed.

[The Celestial Race agenda will be re-decided at a later meeting.]

In the end, the Celestial Race agenda was put on hold. It was an expected situation. In the first place, Sehyun did not come here with the intention of handing over the agenda today. Rather, his intention was to make his allies recognize the Celestials as helpers.

It would be nice if the agenda passed, but it didn’t have to be today.

“… Oh, I don’t know.”

It was only an hour ago that Ruhak washed his wings. Meanwhile, his wings had become damp again. Sehyeon gently swept the wings hanging in front of him with his fingertips.

Agatha said she had something to show you.

If Sehyun’s guess is correct, what everyone will face tomorrow will be despair hidden in a thick fog. Sehyeon still hasn’t forgotten the eerie fingertips he saw the moment the fog cleared.

However, the flow of the world was still the same, and everything was blurry, even the fear. It felt like a wall was blocking my view.

In fact, Fan and Agatha’s choice was too late. Time was running out for everyone, and the only way to fill the gap was through ‘rapid growth’.

We should have made the situation known and created an opportunity for growth, but it was too late.

Sehyeon had not yet cleared the 85th floor. He was trying to buy time. If, as Bill Will said, Sehyeon was causing the other empires to lack time to grow, then they should have delayed it now to buy time until it was close.

Nevertheless, the time came quickly, and the day to attack the 85th floor was already a week away. It wasn’t difficult for Sehyeon. So it was more of a problem.

The gap is too large.

The attitude of the alliance countries must have played a role in why Fan and Agatha suddenly made this choice today. Their laziness and negligence changed their plans.

The federation will be faced with two choices tomorrow. Those who are scared and try to run away, and those who are scared and try to move forward.

I could hear the sound of rain hitting the window. As the forgotten dampness reared its head again, the thoughts disappeared as if swept away.

“Some rain… “I wish it would stop.”

As his mind became empty, Sehyun’s eyes gradually began to close. Her eyes, which had been blinking slowly, soon closed.

Forgetting about the uncomfortable position, Sehyeon lay down on her stomach and fell into a deep sleep.

Despite being annoyed by the dampness, I had a deep, deep sleep. She vaguely remembers waking up, but even that was only for a moment. After feeling the familiar hand caressing her wings, I snuggled into her moisture-free embrace and closed my eyes again.

The feeling of firm fingertips rubbing against her cheek was so vague that she couldn’t tell if it was real or not, but when she opened her eyes, she noticed an arm tightly hugging her back and realized that what had happened last night was real.

From the dark window, I could hear the news of non-stop rain. The air was still humid. However, there was not even the slightest moisture in Sehyun’s arms.

Even the black wings spilling out from behind were like that. Unlike the humid weather, Ruhak’s wings maintained their usual stiffness. Maybe that’s why I didn’t feel any dampness or dampness right now.

While thinking about sleeping more, Sehyeon saw the faint light coming from the window and moved her body. The arms that were holding her back loosened as she realized the movement.

When I raised my head from the relaxed embrace, my eyes immediately met with sleepless eyes.

“… Ruhak, you sleep.”

If you look at it, Ruhak always divided up his time, devoting half of it to Sehyeon. Especially at night. Every time that happened, I wondered if I was sleeping or spending time for myself.

Sehyun had never seen him sleeping. Long before I came to Elix.

“You’re getting the sleep you need, so there’s nothing to worry about.”

There were many places to point out, but Sehyeon just sighed and closed his mouth. No matter how hard he tried, he wasn’t a great person to listen to, and it didn’t seem like anything would be fixed even if he said it now.

As soon as I got up, the moisture came in again. When I held Ruhak’s clothes, the dampness that had permeated disappeared again.

It’s probably thanks to the skill Ruhak is activating. I remembered acquiring the skill to collect moisture in the early days of establishing the empire and using it to great advantage. It was thanks to this that he was able to collect and retain Se-hyeon’s blood.

“… I’m going to sleep better, so wake me up when someone comes. And don’t bite.”

In the end, Sehyeon curled her wings and lay back in Ruhak’s arms. I could barely see the view from the window in the dusk, not knowing whether it was dawn or morning. I closed my eyes and felt a hand caressing my back.

As I leaned into that languid hand, sleep quickly fell. But before the ground went completely dark, she felt a hand digging between her wings and gently caressing her.

As a hand gently touched the wing feathers and passed by, a short breath came out. Maybe it was because I was drowsy, but it felt creepy. Sehyun, who had been blinking his eyes tiredly for a long time, finally flicked the fingertips that were gently pressing on his lower lip.

It was about three hours later that Sehyun woke up. This was also the time when a notice was sent to gather at the conference hall. Even then, the rain did not stop. It felt like my concerns had become reality.

Se-hyeon calmed down her anxiety by stroking the head of Jae-young Lee, who was holding her hand tightly. Baek Do-hyun also seemed to be nervous, and his expression was stiffer than usual.

It was worth it. Currently, they were heading to the airship to encounter the monster. Unlike Sehyun, who had a stern expression, the others were irritated and irritated by the dampness.

There were also people who scolded me for calling it such a bad day. Of course, there was no Archduke in the group heading towards the airship.

Only players.

“Baek Do-hyun, how many floors of the tower did you conquer?”

“66th floor.”

“What about Jaeyoung?”

“I am… Uh, I’m still on the 70th floor.”

As far as Se-hyun knew, Baek Do-hyun and Lee Jae-young had each trained four heroes. It was a situation where the tower attack had no choice but to be sluggish.

“You both will be hanging out with my heroes starting tomorrow.”

Baek Do-hyun and Lee Jae-young’s eyes immediately fell on Se-hyeon. Jaeyoung Lee, as well as Dohyeon Baek, looked quite surprised. I thought about it for days, but this was the only thing Sehyun could do right now.

Deploy heroes to attack the tower together and train vassals. However, for that to happen, the vassals also had to have a certain level of will.

“You want to help me? really? “Is that okay?”

“If everyone finds out today, there will be no more time. The odds of them all fighting back are slim. Maybe it’s hard to fill a hundred allies. Still, it is better to filter and grow while you can.”

“I think the same thing. “Most of them have already been discarded a long time ago.”

Baek Do-hyeon looked at the people passing by and nodded with his chin firmly raised. It may be better at this point to select those who can fight, grow them, and strengthen their will together.

Fan and Agatha’s choice was never wrong.

“I would like everyone to board the airship.”

“No, what are you saying to show me?”

“I guess they want to hold a festival on the airship, haha.”

“I’m so wet, I’m dying, what kind of nonsense are you talking about?” under.”

While grumbling, people began boarding the airship, dragging the ends of their wet pants. Sehyun was no different. The surrounding area was thick with pouring rain, but the scenery of Foggy Mountain was vivid enough to give me the creeps. It was such a strange thing.

It felt as if even the rain was avoiding that place.

“We will depart.”

With Agatha finally climbing aboard the airship, the airship slowly began to increase altitude with a takeoff signal. The screen inside the airship’s hull was soon filled with raindrops pouring down in pursuit. Even the sound was clear.

The sight of the empire slowly shrinking in size encouraged tension. The deep shadow on Agatha’s face showed great determination. Agatha didn’t waver at all.

“Everyone, please look at that misty mountain.”

When the airship rose so high that it was impossible to even guess its height above sea level, Agatha’s voice silenced the chaotic words. Everyone silently followed her words. Some of her dogs still brushed off the rain-soaked clothes, saying they were not to her liking.

“The Choun Alliance respects the wishes of those who are determined to oppose the achievements. Whoever is willing and able to fight, the Federation will always keep its doors open. Don’t forget. “The purpose of the Choun Alliance.”

Agatha’s noble eyes scanned everyone. When those eyes finally rested on Sehyeon, she had a bitter smile on her face.

“I will respect whatever choice you make.”
