<h4>Chapter 824: The Last (57)</h4>
I expected that there would be a card prepared on his side as well since there had to be some bnce control as the power difference was huge.
Unlike our faction, which owned dozens of named entities, including Kim Hyunsung and Jung Hayan…
‘That bastard had nothing.’
Even if we were up against the Demon Summoner, there was no way he could stop Kim Hyunsung with simple undead beings.
However, I didn’t expect them to be the cards that could deter our regressor.
It wasn’t just them. I could see viins that I couldn’t remember well now.
There were high-ranking ck wizards leading their fellow ck wizards. He truly did seem like he was an expert at it. They might be the victims of Kim Hyunsung’s long-time hatred of them, or maybe they were the viins who met their end at the hands of the Pdins of the Benignore Church.
Whatever the case, the important thing was that he had a card to fight our transcendent beings. Still…
“Isn’t this overrated? That cowardly bastard…”
In fact, I couldn’t criticize him for being a coward since we had Kim Hyunsung, Cha Heera, and Jung Hayan, but I thought it was too much.
In the case of the demon’s informant Lee Seolho or Mikhail, they weren’tbatants in the first ce. They weremanding and administrative personnel who could help in this war, and they were the ones who managed the troops.
No, looking closely again, I couldn’t let those bastards out. Weren’t they all showing off their abilities beyond the potential they had at the time?
Taking Ito Souta as an example, it would be easy to understand. The scenario seemed to be answering what would have happened if those viins had grown properly instead of dying.
His agility stats were extremely high, making it seem like the quick movements he showed just before he drowned in holy water weren’t just a technique.
I didn’t remember very well, but it seemed that the sword of the wind, a heroic-grade weapon that he had at the time, became legendary, and rted special abilities had also grown.
Rtive to his title of Celia’s Wind, he became a swordsman who used the wind, and as if to repay his title as a Demon Worshiper, hepleted the 5-star evolution ending in a ck wind-enclosed sword.
Not only did he grow properly, but he also acquired the power of a demon.
‘I did a good job of handling him really quickly. If he had signed a contract with a demon and made a mess, it would have been big trouble…’
The ck air currents roamed around him nonstop, disying that his endurance was no longer his weakness. I was speechless at the absurdity of it.
Apart from him being annoying, he made me want to try to use him. The swordsman, who seemed to be at the height of his glory days, looked pretty cool.
However, not cooler than the guy near him.
‘Themander of the first round brigade.’
Psychopath Killer. Jung Jinho.
I didn’t know why the guy who died in the tutorial was there, but he seemed to be strong enough to make anyone feel like he was prepared to be the opponent of Kim Hyunsung.
‘I don’t think his growth limit was this high.’
He showed strength beyond his limits in the first round. He had to have been given a gimmick or something that made him ovee the system’s walls or received a demon’s power.
He wasn’t only well-bnced enough to fit the job of a magic swordsman, but his magic power stat was going through the roof.
Seeing him with a sword in one hand and drawing a magic circle with the other was impressive.
Although he seemed to be enchanted, there was a strong feeling that he had all the conditions that matched the fundamentals of psychopaths.
‘I think that’s enough for mass-killing magic.’
He even had movement spells that could move him short distances very fast.
It was absurd to see what seemed to have been made only for Jung Hayan in his status window.
Of course, in his case, he could only move his own body to nearby ces, but it was annoying that he had received such a trick.
He showed a lot of blood maniption and mediating magic, so I was sure he’d be able to show good efficiency in the field. He might even be beyond our guys in terms of ughtering capabilities.
Besides him, there were Ki-cheol and Jae-jun, who lost their lives together in the tutorial, the Russian Park Deokgu, who worked with Jin Qing, and the soldiers and officers who followed him.
Their team was impressive. His deck looked just as much a scam as mine.
The Demon Summoner, who had brought all demon officials together, started to put his hand on the miniature continent with a diabolic mile. Cho Hyejin also put magical energy in it nervously.
And…
The pieces that seemed to be standing still began to move.
-…
‘Isn’t that the improved version of Jihye’s dummy world? Is that the Dummy World DLC: Republic Wars or something?’
It looked like they put some restrictions on it, but it really did look like a dummy world.
They seemed to be acting and thinking for themselves. I also found conversations that I didn’t understand. I couldn’t hear their voices, but I could tell they were expressing their will.
[Named entity Kim Hyunsung of the human faction is anxious. He expresses an intention that can’t be conveyed to the yer. His intention has not beenmunicated.]
[Themand center of the human faction says we need to check our supply status. There seems to be a problem regarding it. The two leaders of the Republic and the State are in conflict. Sending a letter to each yer.]
[Named entity Kim Hyunsung of the human faction is crying and sad. He expresses a will that can’t be conveyed to the yer. His intention has not beenmunicated.]
‘No, why the fuck is he like that again? Is this a bug?’
[The Red Mercenary Guild of the human faction says that you must attack first. If the yer’s intention is not clearlymunicated, the Red Mercenary Guild will lead the army.]
“You know you have to stop that, right?”
—I think sending my willingness will be enough.
-…
[Cha Heera of the Red Mercenary Guild epts the yer’smand. Cha Heera insists that she is waiting and that the battle should be fought as soon as possible. ck Swan Guild’s power analysis team wants to first analyze and point out the weakest front of the demon faction. They are leaving it up to the yer to decide.]
‘It’s too organic.’
The situation itself that progressed in real-time was mind-boggling. Cho Hyejin was also biting her lip. She seemingly wasn’t expecting this, and was thinking that she needed a suitable period of time for adaptation.
Jin Qing looked at Cho Hyejin as he was giving orders, conveying that he was having fun. He wasn’t serious at all. Maybe it was his consideration for her. No, that couldn’t be it.
It was more likely because of his desire to enjoy the game a little more. He didn’t want to y a boring match, after all. The priority should be to strengthen the stability.
Cho Hyejin, who was so focused that I couldn’t tell if she could hear my voice, moved like she knew that too.
Considering Jin Qing also didn’t move his own troops, he probably had his own personal difficulties.
He had to unite the voices of the fieldmanders of his army, and wouldn’t he have to suppress the sudden actions of the named entities as well?
Perhaps the crazy psychopath Jung Jinho was scrambling for a source of magic power or soldiers.
Ito Souta and Lee Seolho might be trying to seize power within the group together. Basically, they would move based on their pre-installed disposition.
‘Are they obeying the yer’s orders?’
[The State’s Holy See strongly argues that the power of the demon must be quickly defeated. Pope Basel sends a letter to the yer.]
Looking at it now…
[The named entity, Pope Basel, respects the yer’s wishes, but he says he can’t ignore the citizens in fear, which is why we need a way to reassure them. Priests and devotees are outraged. He expresses his strong will that the demon cannot be left alone.]
It didn’t seem to be unconditional obedience.
Basically, they respected the yers’ wishes, but she needed a carrot and a stick to control them. Cho Hyejin and the situation room were busy trying to calm the citizens, probably already realizing the fact.
Looking at her giving orders to Oscar, I knew she was trying to put out the most urgent fires first.
-Yes. Okay. Yes. I checked.
‘Hyejin is adapting quickly. She’s much better than me…’
[The named entity, Oscar, speaks out of respect for the yer’s wishes. She calms the fearful citizens and unites the State. Oscar activates the special skill Diplomacy. She summons the executives of the Republic and other countries. Oscar triggers the special skill Speech. She appeals torge guilds and armed groups to unite as one.]
‘Oscar is good.’
[The ck wizards of the human faction hide in fear. There is a possibility that they willter turn to the demon faction.]
‘There are also side effects like this.’
The more I thought about it, the more it felt like a well-made game. Feedback onmands was quick, and it was as if they had applied many variables that were easy to miss.
In particr, how to control those variables would be an important factor in solving the game.
[Delivering supplies to the soldiers of the human faction.]
—What do you think?
-…
-You’re a boring partner. Well, it’s okay. Rather than useless psychological warfare… this is much better.
‘Do you think she can hear you now?’
She was too busy focusing on the game. Basically, in order to create the environment that Cho Hyejin wanted, the groundwork would be the most important.
‘It will probably be hard.’
Of course, I had to think that it wouldn’t be easy to move the troops the way she wanted. She used her forces defensively because there was plenty of room for Jin Qing to execute skirmishes across the ying field. The warlike Red Mercenary Guild and the temple group weren’t likely to not be happy about the yer.
Naturally, their morale would also be broken because they were locked there…
She also needed to solve the supply predicament if she wanted tost for a long time.
She had to bnce the main base, not to mention the basic dust-free setting, and she had to raise new walls or drill through supply routes.
There was also the task of forming a contactwork or creating and delivering a manual for organic movements between groups.
‘Hyejin owns this area.’
There was no need and no room for me to intervene any further.
The Blue Guild’smand team wrote out a manual and sent it to Cho Hyejin, who reviewed it and conveyed it or cut it off. While having a meeting with Jung Hayan and Han Sora, she grew even more serious.
They were having the meeting after taking action in such a way that others couldn’t see or hear their tactics or strategies.
-We won’t have enough time to control everything. I think it would be better to go ahead with writing the manual first. Yes, I checked. I’ll review it, manager. Okay. I’m going to take back the frontline. Diplomatic Team, please fill out a document to be sent to themanders in charge of each front.
[Themand center epts the yer’s will and decides to operate the troops defensively. The survival of the main force is the top priority, and except for some named entities and troops, the will of the yer is respected.]
“Good.”
-Securing a stable supply route is important.
But war couldn’t be avoided.
[They agree with the idea of having a safe supply route at themand center. They im that it will be stable if they retake the 15th frontline. Eachmander says thatbat is essential. The Red Mercenary of the human faction wants to go to the battlefield. Sending the ck Swan Rangers.]
A battle would be inevitable.
[Checking the information of the forces of the demon faction and the named entity. The named entity’s identity has been confirmed as the Magic Swordsman Jung Jinho, who is currentlymanding the 15th Front.]
“He’s already aware of it.”
[The human faction is dispatching the named entity…]
“He knew it.”
[Sunset Swordsman Kim Hyunsung.]
