Desire

00605 Despair

Devello smiles faintly at his greeting. Yeah, it was just a blur, not a complete blank expression. Devello barges in, rumbling inside the open door, and stops for a moment when he sees the stretched shoe stand. Later, she nods slightly and takes off her shoes. Devello was wearing boots with white fur.

Devello's naked shoes have a little white snow on them. It seemed to be snowing outside. Yeah, it's winter. Azin stands with his hands on the wall and giggles and laughs. It felt like decades had passed. I realized that only a month had passed since the war on that day.

“It was hard to find. ”

Devello carefully stretches his feet, taking off his shoes. He seemed unfamiliar with taking off his shoes and coming home. Devello keeps his shoes neatly laid out and organizes Azin's shoes that were laid out as if he didn't have enough. At all, Azin leans against the wall and stares at Devello's back.

The snow was right. Devello's coat's shoulders and white eyes are upon her head. Thinking about it, it's been a very long time since I saw Devello in uniform, not indestructible. The last thing I saw was a sailing party after the beta test.

“How did you get here? ”

It's been a long time, but I wasn't impressed. Rather, I just felt annoyed.

“Who told you I was here?” “Crescenseman. ”

Devello replies: It's been a long time since I heard that name. Crissandham, the transcendent in charge of Devello. Azin asked again, spilling his empty laugh.

“Just because you asked, you told me. What the hell was Acacia doing...” “I told her. ”

I heard a voice in the air as Azin uttered. As the air cracks open, Acacia sticks out her head. She has two eyes full of irritation, just like Ajin's voice.

“Because you don't listen to me. I just didn't think I needed to hear you.” “Have you not thought about my will? ”

“You ignored my will, too, didn't you? ”

Acacia sneers and scoffs. In response, Azin narrowed his eyes and stared at Acacia. In fact, Azin had nothing to say to Acacia in this matter. After the war, Azin hunkered down in his room like a corpse for a month. In the meantime, Acacia has visited many times and tried to persuade Azin to play again.

Of course, he didn't listen to it. Whatever Acacia is up to, whatever conditions she has to offer, she doesn't move. Unless Acacia can intervene in the game itself, Acacia will never be able to recover the frankincense, Persian and Camila from the Demon King. Because it was definitely true, all the conditions proposed by Acacia were unable to move the azine.

“I just gave you a location to tell me where. I don't think that's gonna be a problem.” “Wouldn't you be in trouble if I died?” “I don't think you're that stupid. As long as those three were held hostage, you were never going to die. You can't leave them alone. The Demon King knows that. You know that yourself. Isn't that why you wanted to die for a month and you couldn't? ”

Against what Acacia is saying, he doesn't answer. Acacia was well aware of the pain, as she had not been watching it for a few years. Acacia puckers her lips at the silent azin.

“... I don't know how long it'll last. Nothing changes unless you act. Rather, this has been a great opportunity for you. I don't know what the Demon King is thinking, but he gave you time. So...” “I know. ”

I know it's not a bad thing for him right now. The Demon King did not kill the princess. He only took away the Holy Girl and took away the Black Snow and Persian fragrance that were precious to him besides the Holy Girl.

The Demon King's terms of victory were not met because the Holy Girl was not dead. The war was over and the three empires were ruled by the Mages who lived in the Pandemonium in the ruins of the Bully Desert. The game is not over. The game was still going on.

And the Demon King is in Pandemonium. The Demon King has no intention of killing her. The Demon King himself told Azin about him.

I'll give you a chance and time. It was the devil himself who said that. No matter how long it takes, give me the strength to defeat the Demon King without the death of the Holy Lady. The Demon King said so. I... don't know why. Why would he do such a bothersome thing?

If you know it's an opportunity, you can't move right away. It was because of the loss and despair that it was taken away.

“... Well. I have faith in you. ”

Acacia hides herself from him, leaving a note. Ajin stares at the vanished air of Acacia and looks down at Devello, who is still standing near the front gate. Devello sticks his hand in his coat pocket and takes Azin's gaze.

“Why did you come to see me? ”

Azin asks, "How did you get here?" But I don't know why Devello is here.

“I wanted to meet you. ”

Devello replies. Her face is no different from what she saw in the game. No, your hair is a little long. Azin didn't care much about it.... I wanted to.

It was a little difficult.

Devello resembles Camilla. To be precise, Camilla resembles Devello. I find it hard to see her face. It's because there was no more Camila by her side. Azin clenches his fist at the boiling sensation of self-esteem and loss. His fist doesn't fit very well.

“I don't want to see you. ”

“Yes.”

That's how Devello nods. The answer was that he would not care about his feelings or feelings. In his audacity, he could not even laugh. Devello punches you in the foot. She makes a loud noise, passing through the hallway and approaching Ajin. Azin's face, leaning against the wall, distorted in annoyance.

“Get lost.”

“No.”

As soon as I spit it out, the answer came back. Azin turns away because he has nothing more to say. I just... wanted to lie down a little more.

Devello neither calls nor catches Azin walking in turn. I just followed behind him silently. Azin returns to his room ignoring the sound of footsteps coming from behind his back.

“Nasty.”

Devello mutters. She glances at the scattered rubbish. Most of them were water cans and cups, like lunchboxes. I could see the clothes and underwear I had taken off. Azin crouches in the corner, ignoring Devello's words. Devello asked as he looked at the virtual reality capsule next to Azin.

“Why aren't you connecting? ”

“Because you don't have to. ”

“Death to the Demon King? Or because the Demon King has taken your loved ones?” “Do I have to answer? ”

“You didn't act like that when I knew you.” “That was me you knew. ”

Devello shrugs in response. She glances at Ajin's face and, for some reason, walks up to him. Azin did not stop the coming Devello. The place where Devello stopped was just a few steps from Azin. She takes off her coat and sets it down beside her, crouching in front of him.

“Get in touch.”

“I don't want to do this. ”

“You said acacia. Just because you don't log on doesn't change anything.” “Just because I log on doesn't change anything. We can think about it a little more, unless it's urgent. You're not thinking." Why shouldn't I? "”

Azin smiled and asked. Since the question itself was surprising to Devello, she immediately shut her mouth.

“Stop trying to convince me. Acacia didn't convince me. She left me alone. I was surprised to see you here, but that doesn't mean you can convince me.” Even if I resemble your adopted daughter? ”

“You look just like Camilla. Why? Were you planning on using it? That's not what I thought. But I don't think that's what Chrysanthemum made you do. There's nothing to gain from the way you behave in the first place. Acacia?” “No. They don't care. It's just, I asked.” “With what intention? ”

“I didn't mean anything by it. ”

The conversation does not continue. Ajin doesn't understand why Devello is here. I didn't want to understand. It is said to be in the same space, but it is only if you do not care. Azin gathers his knees together and buries his head on them. I had a lot to think about.

I don't want to give up desperately. I'm... looking for answers. What to do. What to do. That's what I'm thinking. The first thing Azin noticed was that the world, First, was ultimately a game. As long as it is a game, it is inevitable to swing the system. No matter how strong the Demon King is, he can't help the background of the game.

In fact, Azin already had that experience. When he fought the Queen in the Black Forest, Azin pushed the Queen away because of the special skill of the title 'Hobbyist.’ The original specification of Ajin was that it was impossible to fight the Queen, but it was possible to fight thanks to the special skill of the Homocrisis title. It is impossible if it is‘ real reality ’. It was possible because it was a game.

In other words, if we use a system called games, we may be able to battle the Demon King in some way. To be honest, it was also a point of view that he hadn't been thinking about. The sheer existence made Azin's mind narrow. I was only passionate about learning nonpolarity, and I forgot that the world would end up under games and systems.

"If you level up..."

It might be possible to fight the Demon King. This is a feature that applies equally across all games. No matter how strong a boss is, he can defeat a boss without a distinctive content65533; if his level is higher and his specs are higher. Lycanslope Valkun was unable to defeat Azin alone during the beta test. Although it was so strong, at the end of the beta test, azine was actually strong enough to play with it.

Of course it's a game. The higher the level and stronger the skill, the more powerful the Valkun is, the more powerful the Pokémon is, the more powerful the Pokémon can be. It will be the same in the battle with the Demon King.

The question is this.How can I be higher than the Demon King? Right now, Ajin was the highest level among all players in the First. He was treated as a child by the Demon King. If I can't, I'll need to level up twice before I can fight the Demon King. The higher the level, the harder it will be to raise it, so we didn't know how long it would take.

‘No, you don't have to think about levels. There's got to be another way. ’

This also reminds me of the Black Forest subjugation. Although the queen was strong, she was able to fight the queen because she received a number of additional buffs as well as the title of Hobokrit. Defeating the undead chiefs earned me titles that worked well, as well as the powerful buff of Adim. Not just during the Black Forest subjugation. There was a martial arts war on the frontier. At the end, Azin was temporarily buffed by the system, gaining the majesty of the Wall Strength and Eclipse angle, and defeating the Catholic Church master.

There may be hidden tactics in the battle with the Demon King. Finding it first. Fortunately, he had a way of thinking about it. However, I am hesitant because I am not sure about it.

I've tried, but I'm afraid it won't work. Azin was afraid of it.

“... what are you doing? ”

At the sound of the rustling, he raises his head.

“Clean.”

Devello, who was picking up garbage, looks back at Azin and answers.
