I Became Peerless After I Threw My Whole Paycheck at a Real-Life Gacha

News of shock flows to the world. "Article Five, General, Death" Many people could not believe that information. Because the Gate of the Five Arts, alongside the Knights of the Sanctuary (Sanctuary Nights), was the hope of the world's people.

But you'll soon find out that's not a lie.

Communication conditions have deteriorated and telephones, the Internet, television, etc. have become unavailable. The monsters show up again before those who remember ”Day of Disaster”.

The same monsters that scattered terror as before… among them, it is also confirmed that there is a monster who seems to be the "leader”.

Demons traveled even in areas where there had never been much damage, and people were desperate.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

[Leo Garcia, China -]

We managed to escape from Bangkok, Thailand, to China.

Originally, we wanted to get to a safe country in Europe by air, but it was judged dangerous to travel long distances by plane due to poor communication conditions and the possible appearance of chemicals in the sky as well.

For this reason, China is the best place to go. There are more than fifty members of the powerful psychic Peacock in China.

We're on our way to Chengdu, China, where the Peacock is based. I was getting off to the airport, splitting up into several cars, riding and traveling.

"I can't believe Gojo's dead... it just seems like a nightmare"

There's me and Gres and Freya in this car. Freya had the only face that didn't fall for her because she had fought the Black Knight.

"You said the Black Knight didn't think he was capable of beating the Five Articles, Freya. I feel that the five moves were worse than usual... but what do you think"

"I think the Black Knight was stronger than when I fought. But I don't think I can beat Five Articles... something's wrong with me."

After all, Freya was uncomfortable, too, or...

"Grez, you did an appraisal, didn't you? How'd it go?"

"That's..."

Gress said it all. I wonder what's wrong......

"I couldn't appraise you... sorry husband"

"Can't appraise!? Is that what happened?

Stupid, Gres has the inherent skill of "Demon Eye”. Even though it is a skill that any person can appraise... this has never happened before.

"You didn't see it at all?

"No, his name was Hubris, he was a brave man and he had a level of 99. Normal appraisal capability was activated fine, but I couldn't see the details."

"Only the power of the Demon Eye couldn't be activated."

What do you mean... No way...

"Skills to seal unique skills......!?

"Sir! That's it. Then it would explain how the Five Articles seemed unwell, because he had incredibly unique skills."

"Other than Gres, we don't have inherent skills. You were like" natural enemies ”to Gojo... I knew if we were covering for you..."

"I can't do that, Freya. I couldn't go along very fast with those two. He'd have pulled five legs if he'd hedged."

Now there's no point in regretting it. It's important to know what you can do.

"Two things I found out about the Black Knight."

"Two? What have you figured out besides sealing off your inherent skills?

"If your profession is a brave man, you must have” light protection ”skills. It was night when Freya fought. That would be the reason why the Five Articles were stronger during the day they fought"

If you want to fight the Black Knight, it's night. I won't be able to use my "light protection” either, but it's more important to reduce his power...

Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China

When we arrived at Peacock's home, the worst information was brought to us.

"Another demon appeared all over the world?

"Yes, there was a communication failure as soon as the information went through, so I can't get confirmation, but there's been a dramatic increase in demons in a number of countries, including England and the United States."

Liu (Ryu), the deputy leader of "Peacock”, answered me.

"England means the dragon again...?

"I hear they showed up in bulk."

Starting with me, Carlo and Anna had cloudy faces, too. Because I have left the children who have been asked to protect under Article 5 with an agency of the British Government.

I was watching sweetly because the dragons in England were falling dramatically.

"I can't believe you're letting the kids go to England where they're most at risk... totally my mistake"

I hold my fist and regret it so hard.

"It's not your fault. Leo, nobody thought this would happen. I'm one of them."

Carlo says so, but I'm the one who instructed him to go to England. I'm pretty sure the blame lies with me.

"It's hard to get to the rescue now. We just have to trust the British government."

Even if you do want to go, you don't have the means to go as far as England as it stands. Nothing I could do was just teething, and above all, I apologize for Article 5.

Three days have passed since that tragedy. Our Sanctuary Knights have been waiting for us at the home of Peacock.

"No, sir, I knew I couldn't get in touch"

"Right..."

I wanted to get in touch with the British Government, but the impact of the increasing number of "magic" or the communication situation is worse.

The situation in the world is completely unclear due to the disconnection of communications with the members responsible for backward support of the Knights of the Sanctuary (Sanctuary Nights) in Switzerland.

"Aren't the Kings back yet?

"Almost everyone's gone searching, but that's what you seem to be struggling with"

There are also a large number of warcraft overflowing (overflowing) in China, with a large number of victims. The ”Peacock” team gave their total strength to China's search for the ”leader”.

But as Carlo put it, he seems to be struggling pretty hard.

The Chinese government has received a request for cooperation regarding the ”leader” crusade. Regardless, I intend to cooperate with the Kings without having to make any requests...

"As soon as the Kings find the” leader, "we'll leave, too. Don't be lazy just getting ready."

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

”Peacock” is divided into three squads, searching around the strong parts of the magic vegetable, but we cannot find the "leader”.

Previously, we were able to successfully crusade because there were five Articles.

If this time the "leader” were as strong as that time............ I feel hopeless thinking about it.

"King, let's go back here once. Maybe he's not here."

I get weighed down by Liu's words. I can't get in touch directly with the second squad that went on the search in the distance, so if I can find the "leader," I'm supposed to use the subpoena to get in touch with the headquarters.

We decided to go back to Peacock's headquarters.

Cold rain falls on us trying to get home from the search.

"Five Articles... Are You Really Dead...?

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

"Sir, the kings are back."

A member of the ”Peacock," the king returned with dozens of them. Speak to the king unloading his luggage at the entrance to the facility.

"How'd it go?

The king shakes his head to the side.

"I'm desperately searching with the team, but I don't have a clue. Have you heard anything from us?

"No, I haven't got any information in here either"

"Right..."

And the king was overwhelmed with fatigue.

"King, what is it at a time like this, how many weapons and protective equipment did Salman lend to the Peacock?

Turning into a sitting king, Liu, the deputy commander, answers.

"You have weapons and protective equipment for twenty people. Thanks to this, it's quite helpful"

"Twenty..."

"Is there something, Leo?"

Carlo questioned my inquiry.

"Even if we defeat the Chinese” ruler, "that doesn't solve the problem. The demons appeared all over the world, undoubtedly because of the black jewels that the Black Knight put in the sky."

"Leo saw it, you mean the jewel that went up in the sky?

"That's right. If we don't destroy that gem, this hell won't end."

Everyone on the spot gets a dark look.

"We're going to go to Bangkok again to confront the Black Knight and that” leader ". In order to do this, we need an alien and a weapon used by an alien..."

"Apparently 80% of the confiscated Salman weapons have been disposed of... you're overwhelmingly short on numbers..."

Carlo gave a frustrating (needy) look as he bit his lip.

"You're still bothering me now because that Hans bastard did something extra! I don't know where you buckled up, but I'll punch you when I find you!!

Elias had become unusual and emotional. I guess so, because I feel exactly the same way.

As he tried to return to the institutional room, the grumpy king murmured in a small voice.

"Leo, do you really think Gojo is dead? I can't believe it..."

I've never seen such a weak king. I want to say something that gives me hope, but it's not a situation where I can say something that sweet.

"King... if the Five Articles were alive, would you leave the world alone with this kind of damage? I can only accept the death of Article 5."

We have to do it alone... just us...
