I Entered a Gacha Game That Had Been Abandoned for 10 Years - Chapter 192
192 – Decisive Battle (4)
In the depths of the dark abyss.
The mysterious merchant, whose body was still bound by something black, watched the red and blue butterflies fluttering before her eyes.
In other words, she was listening to the story of the Red Merchant and the Blue Merchant.
“…Arthur has already arrived?”
“Yes, even though it will take a long time for the letter to arrive…well, Arthur seems to be handling it without any major problems.”
The Red Merchant agreed with the Blue Merchant’s words.
“I think the same as the Blue Merchant. The heroes of Lartania are stronger than I thought.”
“Well, I expected that much- but that’s not the problem, is it?”
“…”
“…”
The Blue Merchant and the Red Merchant remained silent at her words.
As she said, it was difficult but possible to deal with Arthur himself.
“…That guy, he’ll definitely run away if Arthur doesn’t go according to his plan and collapses.”
The mysterious merchant sighed, as if she was a little worried.
“…That’s why I told you not to use the abyss even if it takes time.”
“I agree with that.”
“I think I said this last time, but I had no choice? If I hadn’t chosen to go to the abyss that time, I wouldn’t have been able to get to Lartania yet?”
“…That’s true.”
“Besides, as I said last time, I’m only giving you information anyway, so there’s nothing I can do? How can I fight against such a ‘bug’ in the first place-”
The mysterious merchant continued.
“So don’t worry too much and just wait.”
“In this situation? If Kim Hyun-woo dies, we’re all done here?”
“But there’s nothing you can do but wait.”
“…That’s true, but…”
“Besides, didn’t you guys talk to him directly? Kim Hyun-woo said he bought all that as soon as he woke up today and heard Arthur was coming?”
“Yes, he did.”
“Then it’s fine. He knows how to get through the crisis. So, let’s just watch.”
The Red Merchant and the Blue Merchant closed their mouths at the mysterious merchant’s leisurely words.
Instead.
‘He’s shaking his legs like that.’
The Red Merchant and the Blue Merchant made a cold expression as they watched his legs shaking so much that it made the viewer anxious, even though he was pretending to be relaxed.
“…I’ll do well. Yes. And by the way.”
“…”
“Will I do well?”
“…”
“….I’ll do well. I believe you.”

Things happened in an instant.
Lien, who was preparing magic from behind, seemed to be preparing magic without being hit by such an attack from Loria, but.
Kwaaang-!
“Hawk?!”
That was only for a moment, as soon as Loria gestured, the dragon with its huge size flew away and crashed into the hill.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Loria, who was not enough to do that, continued to smash Lien against the wall until Lien completely fainted.
Soon, Loria, who confirmed that Lien had turned the hill into a cliff,
Kudeudeudeuk!
“Tsk-”
She frowned as she watched her arm begin to twist grotesquely, clicked her tongue briefly, and looked at Kim Hyun-woo with a nervous expression.
Kwaddeudeudeuk-!
Kim Hyun-woo frowned as Loria’s appearance twisted even more at the sight of him, and soon her hand twisted at an absurd angle, but Loria said in a bored voice.
“Ha, that’s why I didn’t want to come out in person.”
She let out a low sigh as she watched her arm twist like a pretzel, and soon looked at Kim Hyun-woo and said.
“See? This.”
“…Is that a risk?”
“Yes, I’m pretending to be okay, but it hurts more than I thought. And I have a lot to lose if I kill you, but honestly, there’s no other way now that it’s come to this.”
As Loria turned her twisted arm towards Kim Hyun-woo, he frowned and asked.
“Why on earth are you trying to kill me?”
“Why am I trying to kill you?”
Loria muttered with such words, and soon with a snickering laugh
“It seems like you’re trying to buy time, but it’s a pity.”
She said, raising her hand exactly towards Kim Hyun-woo.”I’m sorry, but I’ve waited this long, and I don’t have the patience to waste any more time getting straight to the point.”
With those words, she began to forcibly straighten her twisted hand.
Thud-thud-thud!
The tendons began to bulge, as if resisting fiercely.
However, in the end, the grotesquely twisted arm returned to Loria’s will.
“I have a lot to lose with this, but it’s better than not trying at all.”
With those words, Loria moved her arm to flick her hand at Kim Hyun-woo.
Kwaaang-!
Once again, Merilda, who had returned without her noticing and punched Loria in the head, sighed helplessly and said.
“As expected of a beast, your comprehension is lacking. You must have experienced it with your body just now, so why?”
Loria looked at Merilda as if she were pathetic.
However, Merilda smiled wryly and said.

“Really?”
The moment Loria tilted her head slightly at those words.
Loria turned around at the murderous intent she felt behind her and looked at Rin, who had leaped in front of her. As she watched her, she sighed.
Puuuk-
“…Huh?”
She looked at the sword that Rin, who had pierced her stomach with such ease, was holding.
“…As expected, this sword seems to be effective.”
Rin smiled bitterly with blood dripping from her mouth.
Then, Loria realized that the sword Rin was holding was not the one she had originally been holding, but the half-sword that Arthur had been using, and she frowned.
“…How did you know? Heroes of the middle world like you shouldn’t know about the void…”
Loria turned her gaze to Kim Hyun-woo as if she had realized something.
“I’ve been caught.”
Kim Hyun-woo smiled nervously.
In fact, what Kim Hyun-woo knew was not the truth about the ‘void’, but the fact that the black and white Arthur and the knights under him held swords that completely ignored all defenses.
If they ever faced Arthur, he told the heroes to take his weapon and use it.
‘In a reality where there is no such thing as HP, such a defensive sword is a scam in itself.’
Kim Hyun-woo smiled as he looked at the half-sword of Arthur that Rin was holding.
“Ugh-“
Soon, Loria spat out crimson blood from her mouth and glared at Kim Hyun-woo.
“This is it? I was too careless.”
“That’s why you shouldn’t have been careless.”
“…But do you think you can be so relaxed just because I’m talking like this? Do you really think I’ll be fine with just a sword in my stomach?”
As Loria said, she was clearly seriously injured, even though she had been stabbed with a sword, but she looked perfectly fine.
However. Even in such a situation, Kim Hyun-woo had a relaxed expression instead of a nervous one.
“Of course I don’t think so. That’s why I’ve been thinking about a secret weapon of my own.”
He muttered those words, then took something out of his pocket and approached Loria.
####
Loria watched Kim Hyun-woo approaching her and quickly began to think.
She couldn’t move her body right now.
She was pretending to be fine right now, but Arthur’s sword had definitely dealt her a fatal blow, and her body was currently being held by the five heroes.
…In fact, if Loria wanted to, she could have torn the heroes next to her away in an instant and killed Kim Hyun-woo.
She had that kind of power in the first place.
However, that was only possible if Loria gave up her own body.
Loria’s body would be torn to shreds like paper the moment ‘she’ began to exert her power in earnest.
And that was not what Loria wanted.
The reason she had made a contract with her in the first place and brought the Lord of Lartania here was to obtain a body.
That’s why she deliberately chose not to do anything and wait until her wounds healed.
Even now, while her body was being held captive, it was slowly repairing the interior that had been completely destroyed by the void.
With such thoughts in mind, Loria silently watched Kim Hyun-woo.
Soon, she saw Kim Hyun-woo, who had reached her, take something out of his pocket, and soon realized that it was a ring.
‘A ring…?’
Loria looked at the ring with a questioning expression.She tried to figure out if there was any magic or special technique engraved on the ring, but she soon made a blank expression.
She realized that there was no special magic or technique on the ring.
Of course, there was one, but it was a useless auxiliary technique, not an attack technique, so Roria looked at Kim Hyun-woo with a puzzled expression.
Soon, she confirmed that Kim Hyun-woo turned his body with the ring out and looked at Merilda.
“Merilda.”
“Master, it’s dangerous, so drop-“
“Marry me.”
“…Huh?”
Merilda made a blank expression at Kim Hyun-woo’s words that followed.
“????“
The heroes blinked their eyes as if they didn’t understand the current situation.
“Huh…?”
Roriel looked at Kim Hyun-woo with an absurd expression.
