#238
238. After the ending (9)
Not too long ago, he was a strong player who single-handedly won the second place in the rankings.
Also, in the face of over 10,000 punitive forces, he eventually survived and came this far. If it wasn’t for that guy, he wouldn’t have been able to do anything.
level 99.
Before he knew it, his level had dropped to 6 stars.
That would be better.
‘He’s not feeling well.’
El Cid was nowhere to be found with his former momentum.
The wolf fur coat, which was the mascot, was covered with sand and dust, and there were wounds all over the body. The left side of his face was completely unrecognizable with blood dripping from his forehead. Even so, the eyes looking at me did not waver.
Rumble, thump.
The airship he rode ran into difficulties with Brunhild 01.
Compared to Brunhild, which has a panoramic view of 448m and can compete with the height of skyscrapers, the airship he rode was shabby.
“Huh, it was hard.”
El Cid jumped over the railing and landed on the deck of Brunhild 01.
Then he dusted off his clothes and started walking slowly this way.
“While I was away, the world expanded. I improved a lot. I never thought there would be so many strong people who could mix swords with my teammates. Thanks to that, I became alone again.”
El Cid smiled bitterly.
Then he looked at me and raised his eyebrows.
“It’s the same for you, friend. The beginner who knew nothing has become a worthy ruler of the world.”
“More than that, don’t approach the Master.”
A dagger was pointed at El Cid’s neck as he approached me.
Behind him, Nisled had a cold gaze.
It’s not just that guy.
Pillars on deck, inside the ship, under railings, behind cargo.
They were targeting El Cid in every possible hiding place.
A total of 27 people.
They were Master Assassins who belonged to Niflheim and had the special skill of ‘assassination’.
With this number of Assassins, even the first party members could be in danger if they were not careful.
“Right.”
El Cid’s gaze moved around.
The assassins were pinpointing where they were hiding.
“As expected, the preparations are thorough. It will be difficult to kill you here.”
“……cheeky.”
Nisled’s dagger blade cut into his throat.
A thin line of blood was drawn and blood trickled down his neck.
“Not like you.”
El Cid stomped his foot lightly.
A dance-like motion. Knowing the situation, Nisled gave strength to his right hand.
With the sound of the passing wind, the cloak fluttered, and Nisled fell to the ground.
“Ugh!”
El Cid pointed the blackened dagger at Nisled’s throat.
Suddenly, the weapon was snatched from his hand.
“Master, this person is dangerous…”
“no.”
Suddenly, El Cid dropped his dagger to the floor.
“Now I’m tired of killing. I did it to the point of being boring. It’s no longer fun.”
The guy got up from his seat.
And it started walking towards me again.
Yurnet left without a word.
“It’s okay. Nothing.”
I know that I am only level 50.
That guy can’t fight properly.
“The author is a weapon even with his bare hands.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t be close.”
Whatever happens, Yurnet will take care of it.
I took a deep breath and walked away slowly.
“I thought it would bounce, but I managed to come. Did you want to die?”
“What a joke. I just wanted to talk to an old friend.”
El Cid smiled.
“When was I your friend?”
“Then are you brother and sister?”
“It sounds more like a dog.”
El Cid and I stopped at the same time.
The distance between the two sides is about 10 m.
It was a distance that could reach the front of the opponent if he spurred his foot.
‘… … You must be nervous.’
I glanced behind me.

All of the heroes here are watching us, including Yurnet and Nisled.
If El Cid even pretended to draw his sword, everyone would run to cut his throat.
“I never thought you would fall here. The first time I heard it, I thought it was a joke. The guy who didn’t even listen to me.”
“Someone listen to you.”
“Aren’t you pretending to listen?”
I ask a crazy question if the character in the game doesn’t seem to be alive.
Of course, I thought it was weird. Well, I stayed by his side for a while.
I know so many things, and I’m good at the game. There was a lot to pull out.
In the early days of Pick Me Up, it was a story when users around the world were playing games on one server.
Before scattering to other servers, I used to exchange tips and tricks with this guy through the in-game translator. It is no exaggeration to say that the basis of all my theories and analyzes was made by this guy.
However, no matter how I modified the method, I couldn’t follow that guy’s operation.
I controlled the waiting room under thorough calculation, but El Cid… … .
‘I couldn’t figure it out.’
When he wanted to do something, Dorado’s heroes helped him with all their might.
I gave orders and orders to the heroes, but El Cid didn’t have to.
When I first saw it, I thought it was an illegal program.
It was like magic.
Like a real connection to the hero in the game.
“…”
I glanced back.
Yurnet nodded.
I used soundproofing magic to prevent conversations between me and El Cid from leaking out.
“I don’t know what your real name is. I don’t even know what you do on Earth.”
“I forgot too.”
El Cid smiled.
I took a deep breath and opened my mouth.
“Go back.”
“…”
“Staying here is dog death. Even if you kill me here, it’s the same. Other masters will follow you to the end of the server.”
The first event returned to failure, but Moebius has not yet issued a notice.
He declared that he could still obtain the Book of Reversal Heaven by catching El Cid somewhere on the server.
Of course I know that statement is false. As Eunet said, if his bowl was broken, he would lose his qualification for 7 stars. He means that there is no use trying to hold on hard.
Therefore, El Cid’s life had no value whatsoever.
“You said you could go home. Isn’t that possible yet?”
“Yes, the contract still remains.”
“Then what are you doing here? If you can’t get in touch with him, I’ll put you in contact with you. I can buy you some time as well as pay off your old debt. It’s all nonsense. Don’t talk nonsense like Server 1, you live on Earth. You have money to live on for the rest of your life. They said they’d give it to you, but don’t touch this kind of mang game again.”
I muttered in a low voice.
“I’ll go back to where I used to live once I finish this F*cking game.”
El Cid was only slowly looking around at Yurnet, Nisled, and the heroes everywhere behind me.
“They seem to be following you.”
“They are them, and I am me. I am not here to be.”
“Me too. Where I should be is…”
El Cid stopped talking.
I laughed out loud.
“Isn’t Earth where you should be?”
El Cid didn’t answer.
“멍청한 새끼.”
“…”
“You’ve done enough. I think your teammates grabbed at least the crotch of your pants, but didn’t you try hard enough? But it didn’t work. Then the contract is over. I have to go back. But stay here… Do you want to die together? That bastard. You’re going to want me to kill you too. Are you going to play in pairs on that bastard’s palm?”
“Whoops.”
El Cid started laughing.
“Yes, friend. I liked you like that. You were bold from the time you had nothing. You’re different from the other users who just took things. You made me uncomfortable every single day.”
“Don’t talk back.”
“I’ve been given too much.”
El Cid smiled.
“Our adventure is…”
El Cid looked back.
As if a colleague is standing.
At one time it would have been.
Like his troops rushing at a great army of tens of thousands.
But now there is nothing behind it.
Only the inorganic deck of Brunhild 01 is spread out.
“forever.”
clap.
El Cid flapped his wolf fur coat.
At the same time, swords were drawn from both of his hands.
“…!”
I raised my hand to Nisled who was about to jump out.
stop sign.
‘Tissona and Cola.’
It was the two long swords that symbolized Laskanda El Cid.
Perhaps it was the aftermath of the fierce bloody battle, there were cracks on the sword face, and the blade was damaged everywhere.
However, it still emits a dazzling brilliance.
hooked
El Cid thrust two swords into the deck.
And it didn’t move.
“…”
I could figure out what that meant.
‘It turned around.’
can not understand.
Maybe that guy is just like me.
Just like I fell to Taonier, he must have been summoned to Dorado without knowing why.
‘Have you received a lot?’
I remembered the first battle.
A battlefield full of blood and sweat, life and death.
yes, i got a lot
It is a very happy memory that I will never forget for the rest of my life.
the same after that.
I have repeated the near-death experience countless times,
I had to see someone I knew spread all over the place, covered in blood, countless times.
That nightmare was still going on today.
“Are you serious?”
silent answer.
El Cid was staring at me with clear gray eyes.
From those eyes, I realized that I would no longer be able to communicate with him.
Whoops.
When I waved my hand again, the soundproofing magic disappeared with a weak wave.
‘A fool.’
Seeing how he helped me in the past, I tried to attach him with a lifeline, but he kicked me on his own.
I don’t easily forget grace or resentment.
But it all turned out to be in vain.
Tboob.
I walked out with my back to him.
There was nothing I could do now.
“Your sins… do you know?”
A voice that seemed to choke on life.
I narrowed my eyes.
Someone was walking out from the other side of the deck where El Cid was standing.
He is wearing a uniform with the word ‘wu’ written on his chest.
Her silky black straight hair was scattered, and the light of hatred flashed in her jet-like eyes.
“Insolent and filthy man. You killed the martial arts master and Yeonju, and insulted and deceived them.”
Wi-ryeong slowly drew the sword from the scabbard.
The blue-gangsword with the thread was glistening in the light.
“Just to clear the way… you… you…”
Wiryeong pointed his sword at El Cid with an expression that did not tell whether he was laughing or crying.
“Among the Mundo, there was a child who couldn’t hold a sword, an old man who loved old stories, and a girl who promised to marry a certain young man. Apologize. Apologize! Apologize!”
“I am…….”
El Cid laughed.
“I don’t apologize.”
He stretched out his feet as if in command.
The end is a moment.
Until the moment the tip of the longsword pierces his heart, El Cid
He did not take his hand off the sword embedded in the deck.
“Go to Hell.”
Wiryeong drew his sword and raised it.
At the same time, El Cid’s head fell.
