#282
282. Mission Type, Conquest (8)
I frowned.
The pale face of the prince looked like he was looking at a corpse.
A stream of black blood ran down his lips.
“For every power, there is a price.”
The prince muttered, wiping his mouth.
I could see right away what he meant. Because it was similar to El Cid.
He, too, overused his power beyond his means and eventually destroyed himself.
“How much is left?”
The prince did not answer.
Is it much shorter than I expected?
“It’s a matter of course.”
The prince stretched out his right hand to the side.
His fingertips swayed vaguely before returning.
“I pierced dozens of layers of dimensional barriers. My body could not withstand the recoil. However, I do not regret it. I was able to show you the truth.”
“Fria didn’t say she’d be here.”
The prince smiled.
“Originally, a younger brother doesn’t listen to his older brother, right?”
I can’t understand.
This young man in front of me has been through hundreds of years of struggle.
I would have died and killed in countless battlefields beyond my imagination.
To get just a handful of land.
But, just because your sister said ‘no’, you gave up your purpose?
If it were me, I would have achieved what I wanted to do no matter how hard I was forced to hold it or imprison it.
“You look stupid, you.”
The prince narrowed his eyes.
“That’s the difference between you and me.”
“What’s the difference?”
“The child knew his destiny, and he chose it with his own hands. Then I will bless the path. That is family.”
fate
I laughed out loud.
If Prios’ words are true, Pria will be thrown into a pointless fight and die pointlessly. Infinite fragments wriggling on the border. What we fought for wasn’t even a fraction of a trillion.
‘The end is finally… … .’
I remembered the red fields of Dorado.
El Cid rallied all the forces of the Golden Land, but could not stop the invasion.
Even Taoni… … I guess it ends the same way.
The mission, the blessing of the goddess, the hero, and the NPC were all meaningless.
Neither Dorado, Taone, nor any other dimension that exists in Moebius can ever complete the world regeneration scenario. Because that possibility was blocked from the beginning.
Tell is just one more year, one more month, one more minute and one second.
It was just prolonging the end of the universe.
‘This is a fatal error.’
not so much an error.
‘What the hell can I do?’
If there is no solution, it is not called an error.
Even if you go to the 1st server, what will be different?
As they intended, even if I enter Ikar’s place after fully awakening the power of the 7 stars, the time will be slightly delayed, but the ending will not change.
‘Breath… … It’s blocked.’
clap.
I gripped the scabbard tightly.
“anyway.”
I erased the thought and got rid of it.
For now, I had to focus on the situation right in front of me.
While hundreds of thousands of viewers were watching, Prios used the situation in the field to break through the wall of Server 1 and leaked a crucial secret to Freea and I, the key figures in the scenario. This was something the company would never forgive.
“Are you going back?”
“What would you do if you stayed here?”
“If you go back, you die.”
“It’s like dying even here.”
I opened my mouth.
“I don’t know how long you fought, but I think it’s stupid to end it like this.”
“It’s not over.”
Cool.
The prince coughed once more.
Blood spurted out like thick tar.
As he wiped his mouth with his arm, the entire right sleeve was stained black.
“If you can’t end here, you can start here.”
“…?”
“Han Israt.”

The prince looked at me with blurry eyes.
“At the golden throne… we will meet again.”
“What are you talking about?”
“You’re not ready yet.”
The prince smiled and turned his head.
As I followed his gaze, I saw Freea walking out from the edge of the wheat field.
“Where is the exit?”
Freea said in an emotionless voice.
The prince opened his mouth.
“There’s no need to look for it. I’ll send it back soon.”
“…”
“One last question before that, Prisis. Are you sure you want to go back? There is no hope or future there. You will die in ruins, buried in endless battle.”
Freea closed her eyes as if pondering the prince’s voice.
And after a while, I opened my eyes.
“I swore.”
“I swear.”
“I will protect Taoni until the child returns. There is no time to linger here. Please send me to Taoni, brother.”
“If you are, I will open the way.”
sereung.
The prince raised his sword.
“Once you go back, you can’t go back any more. Do you know?”
“I know.”
“Are you ready?”
“It’s done.”
“You’re really stubborn.”
The prince looked down at Freea with affectionate eyes.
And smiled brightly.
“I loved you like that, Fria.”
The prince lowered his sword.
Brilliant brilliance emitted from the blade of the sword began to cover the wheat fields.
In that light, a crying voice resounded.
“Brother, I…!”
“You don’t have to tell me.”
“Here… I will stay…”
“I know what you’re carrying. Because I used to be like that.”
“…”
“Go on your way.”
Light enveloped all directions.
[Master Amkenna, welcome to Pick Me Up!]
The connection screen came up with a cheerful sound effect.
[Loading has finished.]
[TOUCH ! (optional)]
Amkena, which finished loading in an instant, entered the main screen.
After reentering the mission, a hologram message was displayed on the control panel of Amkena.
[Recovery complete!]
[Reconnect to the server. We apologize for the inconvenience.]
Time, which had stopped, began to return.
The fragments falling from the sky, the monsters clashing weapons with the hero, and the scenery of burning cities and collapsing buildings regained their color.
“Brother, what just happened…?”
“Look ahead. It’s not over.”
Jenna, who was making a puzzled expression, turned her head.
Not far away, the prince is smiling relaxedly with his sword hanging down.
at the same time.
[Goddess’ punishment strikes ‘Praios all Ragna’!]
Kwajik!
Suddenly, five blades emerged from the air and pierced the prince.
“What is that?”
awesome
A shiny blade floated upward.
The prince’s body was suspended in the air, dripping with blood.
“… … .」
Prios’ sword fell to the floor.
“What is that sword? Why did it suddenly appear…”
It seems that the company has a strong fever.
I didn’t create an object, nor did I bestow a buff on it.
direct attack and restraint.
It means that I will kill that guy without needing a mission or anything.
‘The prince’s words were correct.’
Seeing that he did this in front of the users, it seemed that he had properly touched the company.
The chatting was updated at a tremendous speed in the broadcasting window. Well, you don’t even need to see the contents. Most of the articles will blame the server glitches and the dead-end mission progression.
<Han.>
Roderick’s voice echoed in my head.
<No more… … It seems difficult to bear.>
I looked to the side.
Far away, in the Burning Highway, monsters were attacking the heroes’ camp.
[Contaminated Goblin Lv.53] X 7322
It’s grown like this before I knew it.
The entire ecliptic is filled with monsters.
Among the monsters, there were occasional ones in the shape of heroes.
Pollution Characteristics. became a zombie.
‘The balance is broken.’
On the right side of the field of vision, messages of injuries and deaths of heroes constantly came to mind.
I put my hand over my ear.
“Does Freea exist?”
<Yes.>
“Send it this way with space movement magic.”
<She… … .>
Before Roderick could finish speaking, the space next to him bent and Fria walked out.
She looked up at the prince who was hanging in the air with a firm expression.
“……Brother.”
“Are you looking for a way?”
pop.
Blood flowed from the prince’s toes.
“What is this situation? How can it suddenly happen in the middle of a fight?”
“Never mind. We just have to do our jobs.”
I ran a round of Bifrost.
paper weave. Dark red lightning rode the blade and rotated.
“Kill me and take my heart. It has what you want in it.”
“…”
“Are you saying you can’t come now?”
“that…….”
“Aim straight. It won’t be easy.”
Oh oh oh oh!
I looked up.
Something is about to come out of a huge hole.
[※warning!]
[The ‘Crystal of Despair’ begins to descend!]
A second decision appeared.
However, things were several times worse than the first.
[Fragment of Despair Lv.108] X 1053
Hundreds of sparkling crystals were wandering around the hole.
Perhaps the moment I take Freea and take flight, he will attack as if he has been waiting for it.
<… … Han.>
Halgion has spoken.
<What did you see?>
“everything.”
After answering briefly, I looked at the prince and Freea.
“There is no time. This world will soon collapse.”
“My older brother…”
“Whose brother do you want? I am Prios all Ragna. I am the heir to the throne of a long-established empire.”
Freea’s eyebrows trembled.
Then she turned to me and nodded her head.
I took a step forward.
“Jenna, Belquist.”
I pulled Bifrost all the way back.
Jigsaw Jigsaw! Lightning charged to its limit ran rampant in all directions.
Soon, the lightning turned into a black glow, and gently wrapped around the tip of the sword.
“You have to kill them in one shot. Get ready.”
“No, until just a moment ago…”
“I told you to prepare.”
“Ah, okay.”
Jenna held out her bow.
clap. Both wings of the bow spread out.
A silvery-white steel arrow wound around the string.
“Can you kill me?”
Belquist pointed his sword at the prince.
Karleung! The blade began to vibrate with a sharp sound.
“If only now.”
Compression, 10 million times.
The brilliance of the sword deepened.
「Pria.」
“……yes.”
“I said I wouldn’t give up.”
“It was… it was.”
“Then, resist.”
“…”
“Resist, resist. If it falls, get up; if it breaks, put it back together. Whatever gets in your way, break through and clear the way. That is our golden lineage.”
Kwajik!
The blade dug deeper into the prince’s body.
「Prove it. That I was wrong.”
bang!
An explosion exploded in the sky.
Something huge was about to fall.
I straightened my sword.
“sorry.”
“That means… … .」
The prince laughed.
“You’re wrong, Fria.”
charging complete.
I swung my sword.
Along the trail of the sword, jet-black brilliance like an abyss was scattered.
“launch.”
thud!
A dazzling flash of light shot from Zena’s bow.
A special sniper based on Nihaku’s Brunak.
Finally, a white wave burst out of Belquist’s sword.
The three lights interlocked and merged, sweeping the place where the prince was.
“…”
There was no huge shock wave or deafening roar.
But only one thing.
A golden glow emanated from the center of the explosion, blinding.
“Fria.”
I whispered to her who was blank.
Freea suddenly came to her senses and walked towards the radiance.
and.
“I am… … .”
In the dazzling brilliance, I saw someone raising a sword.
“Resist.”
Whoa!
The scattered waves of light began to gather into one.
[The mission has been changed!]
[Mission Type – Conquest]
[Goal – Transcend fate.]
