I Became the Wrong Race

20 – Wanted Order (2)

[Play time: 8,860 hours]

Although there was no tendency in Grim Darker, there was content that could be described as a tendency play.

For example, playing as a bandit or looter was like that.

Walking around, robbing the merchants you see, committing robberies, and working in the underworld in the relatively well-maintained cities to get rid of harm.

This is a path that is usually taken for profit, but personally speaking, it was not very efficient.

Contrary to the common preconceptions about malicious fragrances, malicious fragrances actually had little to gain.

The punitive force is chasing you, and trading does not work properly unless you are from an underworld that overcharges you due to bad reviews, so you have to say goodbye to all kinds of quest rewards.

In the main quest, people with malicious tendencies raised their hands, so in most cases, the ending was a bit unpleasant at the end.

I don’t know if you’re a concept junkie who enjoys that kind of play, but for me, who’s quite a performance junkie, it was close to a play that should be avoided.

But that doesn’t mean I didn’t try it at all. I needed to know how inefficient the Malicious Play was, and how inefficient it really was in every aspect, so that I could speedrun properly.

I played Malicious Hyang and saw the ending about 4 times.

Reflecting on that play, if I had to pick the part that was the most adversity, it would be one thing.

Magistrate.

Civil servants responsible for the justice of the empire.

There was one such person in front of me.

“I can’t say it’s an honor to meet you.”

Those are sharp words. If you think about what I did or what they think, you might be mistaken as having bad feelings.

In fact, that is not the case. I knew it well.

I don’t even know how long I’ve been playing Grim Darker. I maintained my silence within the armor I had become accustomed to.

Isla, who was sitting right next to her, quietly took the refreshment from the table and put it in her mouth, chewing on it.

“No matter how much he is a black knight, such violent acts are not permitted. “This is not a stronghold of the Anti-Demon School, but is treated as imperial territory according to imperial laws.”

The man sitting in front of her was, at first glance, a man with a well-trained physique.

There was a sharp curved sword at her waist, and she had muscles that were not hidden even in her well-dressed doublet.

Although he is a great warrior by all accounts, he is probably well-versed in magic due to his use of various magic items and some training.

That was the magistrate.

He is skilled in both magic and swordsmanship and has a high level, but he is a nightmare for Malicious Players who travel around day and night, subduing evildoers, catching and killing monsters, and enforcing the law for the sake of justice for the empire.

Even in the second half of the game, if there are more than three of them, you’ll want to avoid them.

An opponent that feels more difficult than just strong or difficult.

In addition, most of the speedrun records were the reason for choosing Seon Seong-hyang.

I stood proudly in front of such a being.

“But you murdered this city’s strong supporter. “It’s not one, it’s two.”

The crunching sound echoes even as Isla chews her treat as slowly as possible. A normal person might have been paying attention, but he was only looking at me.

It’s not like he’s really interested in me.

I didn’t know how dangerous I was, but it was because I was under the illusion that I was another extremely dangerous being.

He spoke to me with caution, as if he was about to draw his sword at any moment.

“Beort Tomula, the top graduate of the Imperial University and, although excommunicated, a wizard of the Imperial War School.”

The magistrate’s gaze glances at the dark red coat wrapped around my body. The eyes inside the monocle were slightly squinted.

“And even Ethan, the leader of the Star Blade mercenaries and a first-class Star contractor.”

Now the gaze passes by my waist. The man said with that gaze.

“I can tell by looking at you that you belong to the Anti-Demon School and are a Black Knight. But let me ask you.”

Why did you murder them?

Although I have never stood in a court of law, I tried to weigh in as much as I could while recalling something I once saw in a drama or cartoon.

“It was unacceptable.”

A crude word that would not normally be used as an explanation. However, the man who was the mayor and magistrate frowned and sighed.

Then he quietly sat down on the chair, sighed again, and shook his head.

He does not draw his sword, nor does he tell the guards outside to imprison them.

[Single-minded Black Knight / Servan

-You are now a well-known black knight in the city. They hate magic, they despise it, and even the most tolerant of them curse wizards to one day die a gruesome death!

Although this may not be the case in reality, the city accepts that your murder of the two wizards is simply ‘punishment for magic users.’]

He couldn’t afford it.

I thought about him while sympathizing with him.

Why did things happen like this?

This all started three hours ago.

While the magistrate’s men were still knocking on the door.

*

[Play time: 8,857 hours]

There were soldiers knocking on the door from outside.

I could have cleaned it up if it were in my power, but I couldn’t.

This city was one of the safest bases in this new continent, and it was a place that should be considered for use first whether collecting information or doing anything in the future.

I couldn’t just mess around in a place like that.

But that didn’t mean I could surrender calmly.

I could trust the magistrate’s skills, insight, and obsession with the law, but I couldn’t rely solely on that and entrust my personal affairs to someone else while all sorts of forces were chasing me.

So what should we do?

Is there a way to calm these angry soldiers and make the city’s owner not chase me right away?

Fortunately, my brain was excellent. After searching through past memories and vague knowledge of the world with my transcendental intelligence, I was able to find a suitable being.

So I told Isla straight away. Help me put on the armor.

Fortunately, thanks to the skill I gained, I was good at dressing myself, and I was also able to respond to Isla’s diligent efforts to help me dress.

Thanks to that, when they finally burst through the door, they were able to stand majestically, clad in black armor all over their bodies.

And as soon as they saw me like that, the soldiers showed disapproval.

Furthermore, he politely asked me to accompany him and took me to the mayor.

It had to be that way. Even though they live in the cities of the New World, they have probably heard of the Anti-Demon School and the Black Knights.

They paid attention to the magical disasters caused by the three clans, the monsters that overflowed the entire continent, and the large and small magical events found everywhere. They were mad dogs that not even the empire could control.

Magic bastards who only try to catch and kill wizards while riding on huge ships flying in the sky.

The anti-magic paint they made glows black and repels magic, and all the methods they have honed easily crush wizards.

The entire continent knew of their notoriety.

Even though they are a remnant of the old days when all battlefields were filled with wizards, they were active.

I took advantage of that notoriety.

This was the result.

During the Malicious Hyang game, the magistrate, who could not even make eye contact until the build was completed in the second half, was sighing and holding his brow as if he was in pain.

I spoke to that man in a serious voice.

“Baron Beort Tomula was cannibalistic. The daughter was a human weapon of the three clans that served as the lords of the cannibal castle. Moreover, they were abusing magic in all of their actions. “They were deliberately using magic to track down their prey, magically eliminating them, and then eating them.”

Only then did the magistrate’s eyes, which had been frowning, come down and aim at me.

It was a face that showed almost no emotion. It was proof that she was good at hiding her emotions….

I was feeling something different. For example, why did this magistrate affiliate with such a notorious force?

I met his eyes and continued speaking.

“The Star Blade was not that evil, but it was exclusive and aggressive towards outsiders. I tried to avoid fighting with them as much as possible, but… “It didn’t work out that way.”

“What are you trying to say?”

The starting point was here. If it were a game, I would have pressed quick save, but in reality, there is no such function.

However, there were many things that could be helpful. For example.

[Human resources worth using / Vetus Servan

-You had no choice but to destroy the two forces that Vetus Servan was affiliated with, and you stated that it was your belief that you dealt with them. Whether it’s true or not, Vetus Servan thinks there might be some use for you.]

From noble mtl dot com

The reputation that I frowned upon at first because it was unpleasant actually contains more truth.

“There was a vampire. Not just a vampire, but a monster who called himself a blood knight. “The Star Blade saw me as one of its allies and attacked me without any room for explanation.”

This new continent focused on promoting the three clans.

A man-eating baron who should have been caught and killed in the Old Continent escaped safely, and his daughter is a homunculus, the blood sac of three clans.

And the fact that a vampire who usually does not take action or show himself appeared in front of me claiming to be a hunter.

I inferred one fact from all that information.

“At first, I came for purification, but I changed my mind when I saw a blood knight I had never seen in my life with a human weapon like the ‘Archduke Slayer.'”

Perhaps, among the forces lurking in this new continent, there are many people with ties to the three clans.

“I think it exists in this city too, is that correct?”

At my serious tone, the mayor, magistrate, and man abandoned by the empire took off his monocle.

He soon closed his eyes, pretending not to win.

“Please follow me.”

I followed him, stopping Isla from taking a handful of refreshments and putting them in my cloak.
