A Narrow-Eyed Nobleman Is Always Misunderstood

Chapter 145 – Crisis approaching them

Before the Void Eater showed up, Adalbert was checking the contents of the Crisis Response Notebook with his teammates. .

I had to do something because of the ominous feeling that the combat team’s return was delayed.

He also had the option of going outside himself to see what had happened to the fighting team.

Under normal circumstances, the action of going outside and examining the situation was risky, but it could be seen as a reasonable action.

However, in this situation, having established a base for survival, stepping out without knowing what was approaching from the outside or what enemies were waiting was an act that brought a lot of danger.

Why? If someone asks me, most people will answer like this.

“If you rush outside just because you feel danger, something might happen. So, you must always have a way to check the movement outside the base. That is also a shortcut to survival.”

This may seem like a lengthy explanation, but this is the gist of it.

I was told not to go outside recklessly just because I felt something.

For example, what if the other party is digging a trap and luring them in?

If you fall into a trap while confronting an enemy in a situation where you do not know about the trap prepared by the other party, you will find yourself in a difficult situation.

There was something created to prevent this kind of situation, and that was the Crisis Response Notebook.

The Crisis Response Handbook was a guidebook made based on the experiences of people who had experienced difficulties while conducting practical training.

Through the records left by those who went through crises in the past, the contents of this notebook were to confirm how they overcame the crises that faced them.

But… Right now, Adalbert and his support team were facing an unprecedented crisis.

“Sure.”

“This is absurd.”

“Our seniors who practiced in the past.”

“How do you say you solved the problem?”

Adalbert and his support group members opened the crisis response notebooks given to each of them and put their heads together to express their opinions.

“I think you changed the contents of the Crisis Response Notebook for some reason, right?”

“I don’t think so. The Crisis Response Handbook is, literally, a notebook that contains instructions on how to respond to a crisis, but if incorrect information is written, it will lead to power loss.”

After confirming that some of the contents of the Crisis Response Notebook contained absurd information, the support team members began to check why such information was written.

“Are all the same parts weird, or are there different solutions to the same situation?”

As the leader, Adalbert asked if all the notebooks the team members had had different responses when dealing with the same situation.

If, in the same situation, each notebook offered a different solution, only one of them was true and the rest were fake.

“Hmm.”

Adalbert now began to think about how to solve the problem.

However, the answer he came up with was surprisingly simple.

“Let’s select the same situation in each person’s notebook and check how each person’s notebook describes how to act in that situation.”

“Ah! That’s fine.”

“Hmm, as expected! You’re the captain.”

“Isn’t it true… That we shouldn’t judge people only by their appearance?”

“……?”

From noble mtl dot com.

In response to Adalbert’s opinion, the members expressed their thoughts.

Among them, there were some familiar reactions.

However, the reaction of the team members was not important right now.

The most important thing now is to find out the contents of the crisis response notebook, which is presumed to be the ‘original’ as soon as possible.

“Then, let’s find the fifth crisis, open it, and check out what each person’s notebook contains.”

Adalbert, along with his team members, began the work of finding and correcting errors in the Crisis Response Notebook in earnest.

However, the uneasiness that his instincts informed soon became a reality.

The cellar they had made their base of was shaking and the dirt began to come down little by little.

As the ground shakes for an unknown reason, Adalbert and his crew stopped finding and fixing errors in the Crisis Response Notebook.

Vast plains.

Also, an earthquake that occurred in a place far away from active volcanic activity never had a good meaning.

At least, because it meant that monsters higher than the Earth Dragon were active.

However, this area was not suitable for a Earth Dragon to live in.

This is because the earth dragon has a special digestive system that eats rare ore and converts it into energy.

They didn’t know.

Who exactly is the cause of this earthquake?

And why did he reveal himself?

–

A faraway, infinite space filled between worlds that exist outside of this world.

The intelligent body called the place emptiness, or void.

In this space full of darkness darker than pitch darkness, nothing seems to be there, but surprisingly, there are creatures living here.

No, it was questionable whether it could be called a life form.

A being born in the void, ending his life in the void, devouring even his own people to survive, a being whose every life is a series of struggles for survival.

Many civilizations have referred to them as ‘Void Eaters’.

These void predators, each looking like a different entity, have one purpose.

‘Eat everything to solve the endless hunger.’

To them, the civilization, literature, art, science, and knowledge built up by the intellect had no value.

For them, there was only one meaningful thing.

‘More food.’

For them, food was living things.

The vitality that only living creatures can possess was a delicacy and delicacy enjoyed by void predators.

–

Void Eaters first appeared on this planet before life had yet sprouted on the land.

The Void Eater, who appeared on the desolate land where the world had just been created and had yet to grow, found that the prey he sought was not here.

A normal void devourer would eat the planet on which the creature grew, if it did not feed on the life force it possessed.

However, the Void Eater that appeared on this planet was different from other Void Eater instances.

This Void Eater is simple, but it can do what it thinks.

‘Because the creature didn’t grow, let’s wait and eat the life force of the creature.’

Thought this thought, the Void Eater burrowed into the ground.

After a long time, they decided to wait until the moment when the vitality of life overflowed on this land.

Fortunately, this Void Eater was really well-timed.

It was because it appeared in this world when a world was born and the seed of life had just nested in it.

If the world had been created and the seeds of life had just been planted, the Void Eater would have been discovered by the creator of the world.

Then, the Void Eater would have met the end of its existence completely annihilated by the hands of its wrathful creator.

However, when the Void Eater appeared, its creator was turning his attention to another world.

So, the Void Eater hid himself in the ground and put himself to sleep with his willpower beyond his appetite.

An innumerable amount of time has passed.

The seed of life planted on the planet has finally sprouted.

Life spread all over the planet, and soon life was in full bloom on this land.

Managers were dispatched to manage life in full bloom, and the creatures that grew up on this land called those who manage them gods.

And, the mortals who became immortals due to the manager’s trickery, who were two but became one, chose the path of extinction with their own will.

And, the powerful life force he possessed was embedded in the body of a mortal.

The mortal quite by chance emerged from the land where the Void Eater slept.

If it had been even slightly farther away, the void devourer would have gone to sleep, feeling that it was not yet time.

Then, after a long time, the Void Eater couldn’t stand hunger any longer, so they ate themselves and chose the path of extinction.

However, the mortal unexpectedly stayed in one place for too long, and the void eater felt his life force.

The Void Eater finally felt that a creature capable of appeasing his hunger had appeared, and finally felt the hunger that had stopped for a long time.

Just like that, the void devourer unleashed his body upon his land.

Find a being with huge vitality that will appease your hunger.
