Askel and Urud’s heads turned towards Ian at the same time.
“Are you serious? “The image is never treated carelessly-”
“I assure you, Karha doesn’t care about that. Even if I leave it behind, I will still do it.”
“… … .”
Urd spoke with a speechless expression. The new Northern Grand Battle was too bold.
Ian walked out the door awkwardly and added,
“I’m going to take my hand off now, so you can take care of the rest.”
“… “I understand.”
Urd nodded without holding on any longer.
***
“Not bad.”
Ian muttered as he got into the carriage.
The residents who were watching exchanged glances and nodded.
Urd smiled.
“I’m glad you like it.”
The carriage made for Ian and his party was made with great care by the village’s few craftsmen.
Small windows were drilled into the walls and ceiling to block the wind, and spacious chairs were placed inside the interior, which was covered with animal skins.
A sturdy carriage worthy of being ridden by a great warrior.
In addition, two of the horses were selected as the healthiest and strongest.
It was a horse of northern descent, small in stature but with thick legs and a rich mane.
“You said you were going to Trabel Street.”
Askel, standing next to Urd, asked. Ian nodded.
“okay. The commander I know is probably there by now. I will inform him of your move. “To make it easier for you to pass through the gate.”
He added, looking back at Urud.
“When I pass the barbarian settlement, I will tell you there too.”
“I’m just grateful.”
“This is in return for giving me the carriage and horses. “I won’t worry about anything more than that, so take care of yourself.”
“We will also prepare and move as quickly as possible. “I think there’s going to be a blizzard soon.”
At Urd’s words, Ian narrowed his eyebrows.
“snowstorm?”
“The warriors who went hunting told me. They say the clouds beyond the mountain range are unusual. Usually, they end up over the mountain range or only hit the nearby area, but since last year, dark clouds have descended as far as the village. So I won’t add more this year.”
“Hmm… .”
Ian nodded with a strange expression and looked back at Urud.
“You better hurry. “I don’t know what else will happen while I’m trapped here.”
Urd, sensing an ominous look in his eyes, nodded.
“I understand.”
Ian looked at Charlotte as if he had said everything he wanted to say. She slapped the reins as if Charlotte had been waiting.
“I’ll see you again at Travelalga, Grand Master.”
As Thesaiah waved to the villagers, Askel spoke.
Ian chuckled without even turning his head.
“okay. “As long as I’m there by then.”
The carriage moved away.
Askel, who had been staring at the carriage, suddenly opened his mouth.
“Can you believe it, old man? “Those strangers saved the entire village in just a few days.”
Urd placed his only hand on his grandson’s head.
“That is why it is Daejeon Temple. Daejeon Temple easily accomplishes even things that criminals consider impossible.”
Because they are fighting against an enemy they can never defeat, called fate.
Urd swallowed his words and turned around. The purpose was to complete preparations as quickly as possible and begin migration.
Because the look in the eyes of the new Great Warrior of the North at the last moment was strangely disturbing.
But his steps soon stopped.
“… … .”
This is because I made eye contact with a huge man standing behind the residents.
A mouth that has become thin due to missing teeth, and eyes that have lost their pride and are intimidated.
It was Valery, the village’s chief priest.
“Young Master… I am… just… .”
Valerie mumbled in a slurred voice. Urd came to his side and placed his arm, which only consisted of his wrist, on his shoulder.
“Ambition is a warrior’s privilege. Don’t make excuses for the past. “A young warrior like you should look forward, not backward.”
“… … !”
Valery looked back at Urd.
The old warrior added dryly.
“I think my body is feeling better, but don’t think about other things and use your strength. “I need to build a carriage that can carry the holy statue.”
***
After passing through the winding forest road, the carriage finally reached Gwando.
Ian, leaning back in his chair, was lost in thought in silence.
There were two main thoughts floating through his mind right now.
A barbarian village and high-ranking magic.
Since raising his level, he has not yet used a single skill.

This is because I could not decide at all which attribute of high-level magic to learn first. In fact, there was no high-level magic that could be learned right away.
In order to learn high-level magic, you had to learn all the high-level magic on the skill tree path.
During the game, Ian Hope was a poor character who could only learn mid-level magic even though he was at a level capable of learning high-level magic.
After becoming a reality, I gained additional skill points and learned a few higher level spells.
It was still not at the level of high-level magic.
‘I think I’ll have to use up all my skill points to learn one… .’
That was when Ian briefly clicked his tongue.
“Wherever I go, something interesting happens.”
Tessaia, who was fiddling with the wide leather belt, suddenly blurted out.
… That means it’s all a mess.
While Ian snorted heartily, Charlotte continued to scoff.
“I guess so. “Because you just watched.”
“I said something interesting happened, but I didn’t say I had fun. “You idiot.”
Tessaia added with a frown.
“I also want to move around comfortably. “Honestly, it’s the topic you’re most excited about in this town.”
“I won’t deny it. In the end, I felt most comfortable being with the warriors.”
“From now on, I might be caught in the middle. “Because I have this.”
Tessaia lifted the belt she had been fiddling with.
Charlotte looked back and narrowed her eyes.
“I saw what Askel brought to you. “What kind of useless thing is he trying to do again?”
“oh. “You don’t even remember what you said anymore, beast?”
Tessaia let out a teasing look and covered her eyes with a sash over her face.
Suddenly, gray hair moved and covered it as if it were alive.
Tessaia said, sticking her face towards Ian as if showing off.
“If I do this, no one will know that I’m a vampire.”
“… Are you out of your mind? Are you really going to walk around blindfolded?”
Charlotte asked back.
Ian also furrowed his brows and looked down at Thesaia, who was wearing an eyepatch.
Tessaiah shrugged.
“of course. Because I can discern my surroundings even though I cannot see. “It’s especially clear at night.”
“how?”
Ian blurted out.
Tessaia lifted her hair, revealing her pointed ears.
“With sounds and smells.”
“… … .”
Judging from his confident attitude, it seemed like these were not empty words.
Is this a characteristic of a fairy or a vampire?
Ian thought for a moment and then shrugged his shoulders.
Because it didn’t matter.
“They said they were going to Trabel Street. Will anything interesting happen there too, Ian?”
Tessaiah added.
Ian said, resting his chin.
“Well, you’ll have to go and find out. perhaps… .”
He glanced down at Tessaia.
“I might not stay long and go down to Rue Sade.”
“… … !”
Tessaia froze for a moment.
An expression as if he had suddenly fallen into the middle of reality after a sweet dream.
“Lou, Lou Sadro… ?”
She barely asked back.
Ian nodded.
“okay. “If things go as I expected.”
“What is that expectation?”
“… … .”
Instead of answering, Ian turned his gaze to the scenery outside the carriage.
The northern part of the game suffered significant damage from the waves of undead pouring out of the mountain range.
In the process of controlling the damage, the black wall suffered a seizure, ultimately leading to the border area collapsing.
But now Ian has killed the queen who is sleeping in the underground palace.
Perhaps the invasion from the mountain range would have never happened.
The future is unknown to him as he made only the worst choices throughout the game.
As someone who has changed several stories that ended in tragedy in the game, it didn’t seem like a possibility at all.
Even the barbarian village would have been wiped out in the game, unable to withstand the attack by the ghosts.
‘If things go that way… . There won’t be much to see in the north for a while.’
“Do I really have to go to Rue Sade right away?”
At that time, Tessaia spat out.
She also seemed to have thought a lot in a short period of time.
My eyes were still covered so I couldn’t see their eyes.
“The judges will keep chasing me, so wouldn’t it be much easier to eliminate the ones who come one by one? “That’s the vampires’ lair.”
“okay. “That might be the case right now.”
Ian added, nodding calmly.
“But I won’t send the judge away forever. “Because the damage is too great.”
Ian recalled the thoughts he had missed when dealing with Askold.
It was not that difficult to infer that it was intended to convey what happened to Askold to the vampire clan.
It may have been significantly damaged by the fireball thrown by Ian.
It was unknown what information would have survived in the end.
“They may already know that Charlotte and I are by your side. “She may have prepared accordingly.”
“What do you mean by contrast?”
“well… .”
Ian just lifted his chin and lifted a finger. There were a few thoughts running through his mind, but he didn’t seem to have any intention of saying anything.
Tessaiah bit her lip.
but. Her enemies may know her well, but she knew little about them.
“I don’t know what you’re hesitating about.”
Charlotte let out a pathetic sigh.
“It’s your request and your revenge, coward. If you say so, we must go to Lou Sade someday. “The only difference is whether that moment is delayed or brought forward a little.”
“… okay. “That’s the right thing to say, meow.”
Tessaia, who finally spat out, raised her head.
“It’s so hard not to run away, Ian. But I’ll try. “You said something pointless about the topic I asked.”
“I understand.”
Ian added, grinning.
“What I’m saying is just an assumption. “Nothing is certain yet.”
“One more thing is certain.”
“… … ?”
“I will never know what Ian is thinking.”
It has to be that way. Because you will never know that this world was originally a game.
That I was the main character playing the game.
Ian swallowed a bitter smile and finally let it out.
“Now I was wondering if you could still fight with that on.”
“… … !”
“I’m going to check starting tonight. “You’ve been lying around while me and Charlotte had a hard time, so I have to pay for her food.”
“… … .”
***
Tessaiah was really able to fight well even while blindfolded.
While heading south, the monster attacks continued every night.
Extraordinarily fierce and hungry monsters.
Of course, it was Tessaia and Charlotte’s job to deal with them.
Since they weren’t going to give him experience points anyway, Ian didn’t fight at all.
Of course, Charlotte had no complaints at all.
“There will be no room for your body to rust. good.”
Unexpectedly, Tessaia did the same.
This is because they did not stop Ian from sucking the monster’s blood.
She, who had been suffering from chronic thirst, was able to quench her thirst for the first time in a long time by running wild.
“Still, there aren’t any that have a special taste. There’s nothing special about it at all. “It’s just needlessly fierce.”
“It’s not surprising that they are so hungry and ferocious.”
On the third day, after returning from the fight, Charlotte sat down next to the campfire and sighed.
“I don’t know the difference between those who see us and rush at us and those who just pass by.”
“Those passing by… ?”
Ian, who was chomping at the beef jerky, asked.
Charlotte nodded.
“Some people pass by without even pretending to see us. “I will find out for sure today.”
“I felt it too. “The ones that just walk.”
Tesaia helped out.
Ian looked back through the darkness.
“Do you still feel those guys?”
“I felt it a while ago, but not now. I wouldn’t have gotten far anyway. Is it necessary?”
Charlotte asked, her eyes shining.
‘There were guys who didn’t approach before… .’
Ian thought for a moment and shook his head.
“no. If you say it right, those guys will be there tomorrow too, so I’ll ask you then.”
But the next night, a completely different situation awaited.
“Don’t fall off the wagon!”
“Keep your distance! come!”
Because there was another group beyond the pipe.
The monster attack was beginning.
Fluttering torches and carriages.
And Charlotte narrowed her eyes as she saw the group of gray demonic beasts running in waves, surrounding them.
“It looks like the top. “I didn’t know there was someone with a big liver that would come out beyond the wall.”
“Anyway, it’s a good thing for us.”
Ian said as he got out of the coach seat.
“Because you will have a companion to accompany you to the gate.”
Ian, who had told Tessaia to remain in the carriage, looked at the group that had started to fight and spat out.
“Pick up the pace, Charlotte.”
Charlotte slapped the reins as if she had been waiting.
