“If a player or a unit uses some kind of means to move an existing group, other people can definitely appear even if it’s not a space battleship.”

Ji Chang-hyeon spoke about their existence and told a story about another faction.

Erysium is known to the public as just a part of another world, like the Demon Realm.

In fact, there were other human beings living there like the Earth or the Federation.

“Are you human again?”

“There’s nothing strange about it. Right now, there are a lot of units competing with each other only in the Demon Realm.”

I laughed at Eve’s grumbling words in the seat next to me. For some reason, all those who come from outside are human, but I thought it was just a coincidence.

Because many of the units we met right now were non-human.

“Still, it’s one of those two things enough to come here on your own? Either open the gate like us, or warp like the Federation.”

“Probably came by a means similar to the gate.”

Eve, who narrowed down the options to two, seems to be right, but honestly, I didn’t know that either.

Their information is still treated as confidential. Even though everyone already knows.

“Ask Pires, Eve. The Federation knew of their existence.”

“The Federation uses its own artificial intelligence to eavesdrop and analyze all communications on Earth. Of course I know, but I think that’s all. They said they refused to cooperate with the Federation.”

Our spy, Pires, who was infected through the Hive Ritual, told us about the information he knew.

However, even that alliance did not seem important to them, and even the opportunity to approach was blown away.

“I don’t care what kind of bastard they are. We need to go there and get a sample.”

Of course, Eve, too, was concentrating on getting the targeted sample right away, rather than on more detailed information about them.

Slowly, the plane was lowering its altitude. Either way, you’ll get a chance soon.

“Kang Shin-woo from Korea, and Eve-nim?”

As before, an officer from the Guardian Alliance was waiting for us.

“A long time.”

But next to him, there was another person I didn’t expect.

Chris, who hasn’t had a chance to see him since the day he summoned Eve, recognized me and waved.

“…this is a member of our Guardian Coalition.”

“That’s true, but before that, we’ve been friends personally. Are you going to stop talking to a friend?”

Chris, who was wearing sunglasses, raised his eyebrows. Even a young woman of short stature, an executive of the Guardian Association, fought with him without losing.

“It’s okay. It’s true that we are friends.”

I decided to listen to Chris first. Then her eyes fluttered. His eyes were worried about why I might fall over there alone.

“Don’t worry, my affiliation won’t change.”

“Then… I see.”

Of course, although she was a superior, the branch to which she belonged did not have the right to block my private life, which I was dispatched to. In the end, she introduced herself as Annie, said she would wait, and went back first.

“You’re just being annoying.”

“Isn’t it a cooperative relationship? The atmosphere is bloody.”

“At least here in North America, there have been some clashes.”

Hearing my words, Chris grinned. But I could not comfortably see him.

How his players dealt with their units in order to draw upon the power of the Confederacy now.

“This is Eve? Nice to meet you. I’m Chris Baker.”

After that, Chris and Eve greeted each other for the first time. Rather than saying hello, Chris, who had held out his hand to Eve’s eyes, who was just staring intently at him, gently lowered his hand.

‘string. I knew it, but it was still a unit.’

In the meantime, Eve recognized the string Chris had.

In fact, it wasn’t that there weren’t any units I’d known so far.

But they won’t recognize us. After I became one with Eve, we lost the string itself. Being one, there is no need for a connection.

This was a huge strength.

‘And that woman is also involved in the game.’

Eve’s eyes turned to the woman behind Chris, who was wearing a hat and mask.

Perhaps feeling Eve’s gaze, the emerald-colored eyes in the hat shone.

“There was a crash. What is it?”

“Uh… that’s also why I came here after hearing the news that you were coming. Can I talk to you?”

I looked at her and talked to her. Chris seemed a little embarrassed, so he pointed backwards and made a gesture to go to a quiet place.

“You don’t have to. These guys seem to have a good feel.”

It was then that she took off her mask and stepped forward. Outwardly, she was just a beautiful woman.

However, we could see some of the form power she harbored. This woman was quite strong. Besides, it was a face that was not even on the faces of the hunters I was memorizing.

“I’ve heard the rumors. My name is Isabelle, and as Chris said, shall we go to a place where we can have a good conversation?”

She listened to Chris. In the end, we all got into a car on one side of the airport together.

For a moment, there was an awkward silence.

“First, let me explain.”

In the end, Chris, who was coughing in vain, opened his mouth first.

“You may know this, but it’s a human from somewhere other than Earth. It’s not an alliance.”

“Have you ever heard of Erysium?”

And the information she was introduced to was definitely what we wanted and wanted first. One thing to watch out for is whether this woman is a player or a unit.

“Don’t get me wrong, listen. This girl said she wants to hang out with you.”

“…why the hell?”

After a sigh, Chris made a rather shocking remark. Of course, I had no choice but to question.

*

“Let’s go to Earth? Sure, if what you’ve heard is true, you’re in an interesting situation.”

“Why do I have to lie in this situation?”

“That too.”

He smiled and turned around. At the same time, blood splattered on the floor. The huge, half-broken roof partially collapsed, and the moonlight shone on the gruesome scene.

She, Isabelle, saw it and sighed a little.

There were only corpses everywhere. The imperial castle of the empire, which was once the strongest on this land, was stained with blood and perished.

“He said that we killed all the units that exist on this earth and became the representative unit of the world. And he said that we have earned the glorious qualifications.”

“…Qualification?”

“The qualification to kill and destroy the units of other worlds. Stupid bitch, is this the only end of this great crusade?”

he dazzled his eyes. It was not the energy that a terminal paladin could produce.

But Isabelle herself knew the impact of the game better than anyone.

The terminal paladin becomes strong enough to surpass himself as the chosen saint? Even hundreds or thousands of such paladins? With the help of the game, it was possible enough.

“Then, are you going to go to that Earth using the coordinates I gave you, and kill the other units?”

“Of course. Isn’t this the will of the god we worship, Ratel?”

he grinned. It was a face that showed an indescribable madness.

‘You idiot.’

Isabelle looked at him like that and cursed inside.

I know it well because I am a player. A player is just a player. I don’t know who it really is.

Right away, he introduced himself to his units by borrowing the name of the goddess Ratel.

However, he and the last units who won the competition firmly believed that their player was the goddess Ratel, whom they had been faithfully believing in for a long time.

Well, it wasn’t that important in the first place. They definitely got stronger with the support of the unknown player, and the Senate of Seongguk gave up on her, the saint who had been ordained by it, and took their hand.

“I must have told Elvin that there was a way to go to another world.”

As he murmured, she bit her lip and frowned.

Elvin is another player like himself. However, as an ordinary priest, Elvin did not have the power and status like Isabelle. Of course, they didn’t have to kill Elvin, but they didn’t leave him alone either.

Recalling the state of being unable to live or dying, and only breathing, she managed to swallow Chimi’s nausea and swearing.

“Of course, but there are conditions.”

“Are you asking me not to harm your poor Earthling units? Well, that’s fine. Because there seem to be a lot of other prey anyway.”

He laughed out loud at her words. She couldn’t argue with that.

In any case, it was right to sell information to divert their attention, and it was also true that Seongguk was seized due to his lack of ability.

“They’re bold people. But it doesn’t look like it’s easy.”

They came across the walls of the world and came into contact with local forces such as the Guardian Alliance and Evolution.

At that time, Chris, who met Isabelle for the first time, said so while looking at how they accepted the Guardian Alliance’s proposal and ended up fighting the demons of the demon realm.

In fact, they became arrogant as the final winners, and they were struggling with opponents in the New World that were stronger than expected.

“Anyway, I don’t really want to help them, so I’m just wasting my time.”

Isabelle, who returned to the present, answered with a bitter smile to CNU when she asked the reason. In fact, even when she came to Earth, she did not do anything special.

“Exploring the cultures of the new world and meeting many people. Those are the leisure activities I have found.”

“…what you do is more important. You don’t have to do what this woman tells you to do.”

Chris shook his head and tried to make a statement. She stared at him, but he didn’t give up.

“It’s rather good. Instead, there is one condition.”

But then, Eve met them and spoke for the first time.

Chris and Isabelle’s eyes widened in surprise.

“In return for dealing with me, take me there once.”

Eve didn’t bother to drag or turn around. Isabelle’s eyes, which had grown even bigger, grew wider at that straight-forward remark.
