The World Turned into a Game After I Woke up Chapter 220
Chapter 220
Translator: HunterW Editor: RED Pedro was looking panicked with confusion . As he remained silent, I decided to speak up instead . "I am curious about one thing . Why didn't you accept help from a large guild or organization? There were a lot that offered, weren't there? And you're still popular, too . Any one of them could have easily destroyed the NCR Guild for you . " I was always curious about this . He had an easier way to get his revenge, but never chose it . "You had only a set amount of time left . You are going to die soon, so there's no reason to care about the truth anymore . Is it because you're not allowed to lie or something?" " . . . " Pedro remained silent . He probably did not know what to say . I didn't wait to hear an answer and kept talking . "Well, be that as it may, I said before that I'm on your side . That's why I let these bastards call me a coward and let you get this far . But that is the most I can do for you . I have no reason to help you with your quest for vengeance . And while you are going to die forever today, I still have years to look forward to . Unfortunately, the NCR Guild shares the same fate as me, as shitty as they are . " " . . . " Pedro said nothing . "But don't feel too bad about it . I always wished you the best from afar . Remember, I'm the one who chased away the Templar soldiers . Oh, and I am going to be taking away a good chunk of resources away from the NCR Guild, too . " Finally, Pedro reacted . "Why?" "What?" "Why did you do all that for me? I've never met you before . " "And I've never met you before, either . " "Then how do you know everything? I never told anyone about my abilities and what they cost . " "Isn't it obvious? If you care about someone, you end up learning everything about them . " " . . . " "Whoa, I don't mean it like that . " I threw in a little joke because of what I was about to say next . "Well, now that we broke the ice a bit, shall we get to it?" "What do you mean?" "Well, it's nothing, really . I really did think about giving up on the Rank 8 item and two billion golden rings the NCR Guild is supposed to pay me . I really did, if you succeeded on your own . But I'm sure you know as well that you've failed today," I stuck my spear into the ground and crossed my arms . We were surrounded by the NCR Guild and Pedro had nowhere to go . I really did support Pedro . He lived a much harder life than I had in the past . No, it was more like he survived Hell itself . I pitied him for losing his family in such a cruel and violent way . I really wanted him to succeed . "I would have been content had you successfully avenged your family, but I made my decision to step in five minutes before your death if you failed . And I'm going to hold you off for five minutes and make it look like I killed you so I can receive my payment from the NCR Guild . I'm the greediest man on Earth, as you can tell . " " . . . " Pedro was starting to tremble, but I continued to talk . "So why am I standing in front of you now? It's simple; because it was looking like the NCR Guild was going to kill you before you died on your own . I don't want that . I don't want the NCR Guild to have that glory . " I pulled out my spear from the ground and took up a battle stance . "I'm sorry to have to do this, but I'm going to kill you here with my own hands . " I was left with a bitter taste in my mouth as I said that . I only wished I had either stayed completely away or outright helped him from the start . Maybe then, I wouldn't be tasting bile at the back my throat . "You don't want the NCR Guild to have the glory of killing me?" I wasn't sure how he was going to react to what I just told him . Would he curse me to the grave, or would he just laugh bitterly at his own fate? He did neither, and only seemed to care about what I said about the NCR Guild . "That's right . I don't want them to have anything . " The NCR Guild wasn't going to be the victor of this war . I was going to take whatever I could from them, and make sure their names were stricken from history . Just then, Pedro started to laugh . He didn't care that I had my spear raised to attack . "Do you want to know something?" "What is it?" "I occasionally, no, often thought about you . " "Me?" I lowered my spear at the sudden confession . "Yup . You always shone brightly . The whole world worships you . Well, at least that's what everyone seems to think of you . I always wished I had your destiny, your future . " This time, I was the one confused . "I know . It's as you say, I've failed . I knew the moment those thousand soldiers behind us closed off my escape route . So, I'll give you my remaining four hours . I do hate you, you know . If you had just fought alongside me instead… I would have succeeded . But I get it . I get that it isn't in your favor . " Tears were starting to well up in Pedro's eyes . "But I still want to thank you . You gave me a chance to hurt these rat bastards . And thank you for stepping in now . I don't want to die by their hands . " " . . . " I didn't know what to say . "Then, let's finish this now . I don't want to waste any more time . I gift to you the last of my time . I'd also like it if you thought of it as a small tantrum on my part," Pedro said as he pointed a finger at himself and then at me . "Oh, that's right . You said you were curious as to why I never accepted any help . The truth is…" Pedro cut himself off and started to laugh . "Actually, I won't say . I want you stay curious for the rest of your life . That's my last request . " That was it . Pedro burst into pieces while still smiling . It was truly a gruesome sight . I had to avert my eyes as pieces of flesh and blood splattered everywhere . At that moment, I heard a shout from behind me . "Use the Death Prison now!" It was Jose hurriedly giving the order and quickly, a member of the NCR Guild appeared before me . "Summon: Death Prison!" The ground in front of me split, and three-meter tall and wide iron cell walls rose from the depths of the earth . Inside were five iron chains snaking through the cell bars . There was obviously nothing in front of it, but the chains shackled themselves to the empty air, as if they were trying to hold an invisible man . The chains maintained that shape as they snaked back inside the cell . There was nothing there . No, it was more precise to say that the chains held onto a cloud of smoke . Everyone here, including me, knew what or who that smoke was supposed to be . "Yaaaaah!" "We did it! We captured Pedro!" "We won! We won!" I didn't like this at all . A message appeared when Pedro exploded, but I couldn't help but pay more attention to the cheers around me . I tightened my hold on my spear . I no longer cared about my reward . I was supposed to end this, not them . But just when I was about to charge at the NCR Guild, I heard the sound of something breaking . It was coming from the Death Prison . The sound was growing louder and the cell walls and chains were beginning to crack and break into pieces . "What…what's going on?" "Why's the Death Prison doing that?" "I…I don't know, sir!" Jose and his officers were visibly confused as the Death Prison was acting in a strange way, but I knew why it was doing that . Pedro had died a permanent death . His soul could not resurrect again, and had vanished . The Death Prison had lost the soul it was meant to catch, and was now leaving this plane, as if it had just completed its duty . The breaking and cracking finally stopped, and the walls of the Death Prison fell to the ground . "What…?" "What just…" "It…it just had Pedro's soul…" I smiled . Now that was the reaction they should have . I finally turned to the message that appeared before me . It appeared right after Pedro pointed at me . "What…?" I didn't expect Pedro to leave me this . I may have started all this for Pedro and helped him get out of the worst situation possible with good intentions, but I was still calculating to the end . Still, if there was one good thing I managed to do was that I had registered both Jose and Cantana Alejandro when I had shaken hands with them . ==[Call (Rank 9) You can summon those registered in Call . You can register up to 10 people into Call . Use the command, 'Register' on a person while keeping that person in your sights for 1 minute to register that person into Call . Once the Call list is full, you have to remove one person in order to register someone else . Cooldown: 24 hours . As long as this item remains in your inventory, you will receive the following effects: All Stats increased by 300 points . ]== ==[Call List Sung Sooyeon (Mortal) Jose Alejandro (Deva) Cantana Alejandro (Deva)]== I turned to the confused Jose and Cantana, who also turned to face me .
