Chapter 400 Side Story Chapter 20 – Doppelganger (6)

Doppelganger (6)

“Wait!”

The fight had to be stopped first.

Regardless of whoever wins, it will result in a terrible outcome for me.

When the Knight wins, he might point his sword, saying that we should all die together.

Conversely, if the Paladin and the Wizard win, it was obvious that they would immediately point to the Adventurer as the doppelganger.

Either way, the chances of me dying were too high.

“Listen to me for a second!”

But that didn't mean there was a proper way.

At my desperate cry, the eyes of the Knight, Wizard, and Paladin turned to me.

It stops for now.

Now the Adventurer must come up with a way to persuade them.

In 10 seconds.

To provide an answer, the Adventurer must first know what they want.

“What exactly does the Knight want? Can you explain it a little more convincingly for us?”

I was most curious about the intention of the Knight who asked us to die together.

The Knight listened to me and nodded his head.

“Yes. I'll have to explain. As I just said, we didn't figure out how to find the doppelganger in the end.”

It was fortunate that the Knight was a person who likes to explain.

He argued that it is unlikely that we will find a way forward, and that it will only become more dangerous over time.

“Now that I am still in good shape, I want to finish my work.”

In the end, he said that he had to kill all of us now that he had enough energy left.

“There is still a doppelganger among us. When the battle begins, the doppelganger may reveal itself. Then we will never win if we are fighting each other instead of uniting.”

“The Adventurer is right. We must join forces against the devil in case we find the doppelganger.”

The Paladin supported the Adventurer's statements.

However, the Knight denied us, saying that it would be difficult for us to find the doppelganger on our own.

“If you have to fight, you will not be able to defeat the doppelganger. In the end, only the doppelganger will survive. The rescue team that follows will only listen to the doppelganger's statements and will rescue it without even knowing that it is a doppelganger. ”

It's the worst case.

From a human point of view.

This is the best situation for me.

As the Adventurer, it was difficult to trust the rescue team, and there was a possibility of being questioned or tortured.

But if I kill them all and take the form of a Knight or a Wizard, I could disguise myself, say it was a rock accident and escape the dungeon.

[… what?]

It's nothing, friend.

Just focus on the conversation, it's an important moment.

[Yeah, that's right.]

“Of course, it will be difficult for us to defeat the doppelganger. The mercenary is already dead, and if we fight each other, the odds will be very slim.”

The Paladin and the Wizard raised their voices saying that they should find the doppelganger through conversation again even now.

“But don't worry. We'll all die here, but the doppelganger won't survive.”

Whoa, that was interesting.

It's not about asking the Wizard to commit suicide with wide range magic.

The Knight intends to commit suicide on his own, along with all of the party and the doppelganger.

If he can wield enough power, it would be more reasonable for him to kill the entire party and find the doppelganger rather than commit suicide.

But he dared to commit suicide.

Yes, his abilities are limited.

There are limits that even he can't handle.

The Wizard and the Paladin countered that the Knight's words were nonsense.

It was funny.

They concluded that the Knight's remarks were foolish.

When humans oppose a claim, they really believe that the claim is absurd and unreasonable.

Maybe the Paladin and the Wizard could agree with the Knight's opinion.

They could cooperate.

One was a glorious Knight of the gods who had the respect of his followers.

The other is a direct disciple of the magic master who is leading the cutting edge of magic.

Either way, humans would agree that sacrifices should be made for the sake of others who would be harmed by the devil.

But 'I have to live.' And because of the two thoughts that 'there is another way', I rebelled against the Knight's words, and once I revolted, the backlash continued.

Far from thinking deeply about the Knight's opinion, it was ridiculous

Humans become blind as they get more excited, and when they become blind, they devalue and ignore answers other than the ones they have set for themselves.

“How can I trust you, that we should just die?”

Oh, I think our Adventurer friend is going to add some kind of fan to that.

The Adventurer's words were key.

Now, the Paladin and the Wizard raised their voices to the Knight and began to explain how absurd his words were.

“I'm really sorry, but… I believe that the doppelganger will die here too, and all I can do is ask you to die with me.”

The Knight didn't give up.

Oh my, you stupid friend

It's not that they weren't sure they could kill the doppelganger.

They were angry about ignoring the possibility that they may live and trying to kill them in advance.

The Knight finally pulled out his sword.

The Adventurer tried to persuade him, but he didn't seem to have the intention of putting everything into words in the first place.

When he initially made an extreme claim of 'let's die together', he was like a reflection of the idea 'I'll kill you even if you don't like it.'

“I have a way!”

The Adventurer shouted.

It was also imperative.

Hmmm, he was a pleasant fellow to look at.

At first, I was desperate at the fact that the body I occupied was such a weak piece of garbage, but the improvisation of the original owner of the body, that is, the Adventurer's self, was useful.

Desperateness, quick thinking and judgment, coolness and immorality with no sense of guilt.

He was doing really well while I was recovering my strength.

After a little tweaking of his memory and personality, he became really useful.

Whether everyone else died or not, he was struggling to survive.

It was cute.

“I have another way. A way to definitively die with the doppelganger!”

The Knight looked at the Adventurer while holding the sword.

“I agree with the Knight's argument that the doppelganger should not be released.”

The Adventurer made an unexpected remark.

“But I'm also concerned about the dangers of the doppelganger appearing and the dangers of leaving everything to one person and dying together.”

While the Adventurer agreed with the Knight's argument, he also sympathized with the concerns of the Wizard and the Paladin.

Then it's time to come up with an answer.

“Magician, will the Lord of the Magic Tower be part of the rescue team?”

The Wizard nodded at the Adventurer's question.

“I'm sure he'll come.”

After hearing the Wizard's answer, the Adventurer now looked at the Paladin and the Knight and asked a question.

“The Knights and Paladin must also be included.”

The Knight and Paladin answered that it would be the same.

“Then it would be a much more powerful force than the four of us. Maybe the lord of the magic tower alone can burn the doppelganger to death.”

The Adventurer did a great job.

He showed both a selfish desire to live and a sense of justice that he still had to kill the doppelganger.

Among the party listening to the Adventurer, 'I don't think the Adventurer is a doppelganger.' There must be one person who thinks like that.

“Why do we have to do everything on our own? Why don't we just let the rescue team know we have a doppelganger?”

“But doppelgangers are very dangerous demons. They can harm others and change their appearance if left unattended.”

“You can ask the rescue team to quarantine us, or if that doesn't work, you can ask the rescue team to attack all of us. Why don't you do that? The doppelganger will appear, and maybe we can kill the doppelganger with the rescue team. Even if we're seriously injured, we could be healed by the Paladins of the rescue team and survive. Above all else.”

The Knight almost seemed to have fallen for the Adventurer's words.

The Adventurer was an eloquent speaker.

As the already dead mercenary said.

“If we die on our own, no one will know what happened here. But if we do as I say, others will know about our sacrifice. Shouldn't we at least let them know that we sacrificed ourselves for the sake of peace on the continent? I don't want to tell my family in my hometown that I died when the ceiling collapsed while crawling like a mole in a dungeon.”

The Knight thought that was completely out of the question.

Honor was a noble thing.

You have to try to protect yourself, but if others don't look at you, it's worthless.

The Knight was greatly shaken by the fact that nobody would ever find out that everyone here sacrificed themselves to defeat the dangerous devil that is the doppelganger but would instead believe that the party died in a rock accident.

“Furthermore, the rescue team may have a way to find the devil. There will be many Wizards and Paladins, including the Lord of the Magic Tower, who will be included in the rescue team.”

The Adventurer sharply lowered the tone of his passionately speaking voice, adorning his last words with a soft, gentle but a little weary tone.

“Why do we have to carry everything?”

Excellent.

The Adventurer's argument was correct.

If it goes according to his argument, the doppelganger will be in a beleaguered state.

It was more likely to show up first before the rescue team arrived.

Our party decided to be as vigilant as possible and aim to not be wiped out until the rescue team arrives.

When the rescue team arrives, at least two survivors must inform them that there is a doppelganger in the area.

The worst outcome was that only the doppelganger survives alone.

Our group decided to be vigilant with each other as much as possible while trying to get the rescue team to arrive as quickly as possible.

Clearing the crumbling debris of the wall and drilling a small hole.

Through the hole, the magician sent magic power.

The efforts paid off.

Beyond the crumbling wall, the road is still intact and he could tell that the rescue team was clearing the rubble.

The rescue team, who sensed that the magician's magic was flowing, was advancing in the correct direction.

Now, the sound of a pickaxe squeaking could be heard clearly in my ears.

The rescue team was close by.

Our party supplemented the Adventurer's plan a little more.

With the magic of the magician's master, the lord of the magic tower, he drives everyone in the party to a dying state.

Soon the doppelganger will appear.

In the meantime, our party will recover with the help of the Paladin who would have been part of the rescue team and will also join the battle against the doppelganger.

“I think blitz magic would be good for magic. It can stun people for sure, and there is little physical loss, so you can fight right away as soon as your healing spell is done.”

In this way, we even talked about which order to ask for.

We expected the doppelganger to appear first and attack the party, and we were thoroughly prepared for it.

Fortunately, the party was able to unite again, confident that we would win if we persevere over time.

The united party strictly followed the rules and watched and protected each other.

“Knight.”

The Adventurer handed out pickled plums.

At each meal, the Adventurer gave me some snacks.

I smiled and said thank you.

The role of the Adventurer was really big.

Although he had the weakest power, the Adventurer's contribution was really great in uniting the party and coming up with a solution.

“This might be the last snack.”

A rescue team will arrive soon.

The Wizard had assured that the rescue team would drill a hole in the wall before the next meal.

“Oh, you'll still have a chance out there.”

The Adventurer smiled and said that I would still be able to eat the snack he had made when I went out.

While we were chatting like that, a hole began to be drilled in the wall.

The rescue team came.

Everyone in the party stood up and walked towards opposite walls.

It had already been discussed.

The doppelganger might attack the rescue team, so we approached opposite walls.

We also kept a reasonable distance between ourselves.

Gulp, saliva ran down my throat.

I became nervous.

The rescue team has finally arrived, and a battle with the devil is scheduled.

Looking at the party, everyone was quietly looking at the wall where the hole was widening, perhaps nervously.

While looking at the wall, I was prepared for a threat that might pop out.

The devil hasn't appeared yet, but you never know when it will come out.

“Arhan!”

A familiar voice came through the small hole in the wall.

The voice was calling my name.

“Arhan! There it is!”

The rescue team seemed to include several fellow Knights.

I smiled at the voices of my colleagues I had not heard in a long time.

I tried to answer in a loud voice, but no voice came out.

There was a strong sense of alienation.

My throat was choked like I was suffocating.

In the midst of the fluttering feelings, the sound of laughter from a foreign voice was heard.

“Hihihi.”

It was the devil's laughter.
