The Character I Created Is Obsessed With Me

92 – Schemes and Conspiracies (16)

Has the strategy worked well until now? Not once.

The same goes for Ragnar. It was the same up to being imprisoned in the soul prison, but the internal structure was completely different.

Did they block the trick like the vicious producers? There was no possibility.

While the ending and updates were sluggish, the bug patch was done in an instant.

“Heo-eok… Huh…”

I ran through the woods, holding my breath. He wandered in the dark, shaking off the pursuing group of monsters.

No matter how vicious the manufacturer was, he never made an unbeatable foe.

All you have to do is find Ragnar’s main body, the wand, and break it. However, there was no lantern to illuminate the surroundings, nor a staff to be seen.

I searched everywhere I could. Before he knew it, he was just going round and round in the woods.

It was strange that not a single lantern came out after wandering around this far.

‘Yes. Wander like that forever and face death!’

“Noisy… !”

The eyes floating in the air were chasing me. Rotten pupils moved around and followed me around.

Then, the moment my eyes blinked, I witnessed that my gaze was distracted.

‘Ah… !’

Then, one memory came to mind.

Posts viewed by the community. This is a fact that a user found out while attacking Ragnar.

If you get out of your eyes, the monsters will lose their goal and wander.

All of the monsters were being manipulated by Ragnar. If the eyes miss the target, the monsters can’t find the main character either.

When I read community posts, I simply admired the developer’s historical research and game implementation and moved on.

But now, it could be another breakthrough.

There was no other way anyway. Even if the hypothesis was wrong, there was nothing wrong with it, so I decided to try it.

A place shaded by trees even in the dark. After shaking off the monster, I waited for the opportunity to come.

‘The moment you close your eyes is an opportunity.’

The eyes were blinking at irregular intervals. Anticipating the timing when her eyes would close, she hid herself under a large rock.

He curled up and held his breath. After a few seconds passed, the monster that had been howling loudly closed its mouth for an instant.

As expected, the monster did not follow. In the meantime, I quickly crossed over to the tree right next to it. The pack of wolves roaming the rocks clearly looked bewildered.

Calmly, the eyes moved stealthily in an unexpected direction. With his body bent, he escaped from the sight of the monster.

‘Where did you disappear… !’

A voice full of anger shook the earth. He quietly hid himself in the darkness and caught his breath.

If this happened, the opponent would also be in trouble. While I was imprisoned in the soul prison, Ragnar could not escape the prison either.

How many minutes had passed like that? A light burned in the darkness. It was the same light as the one I encountered as soon as I first came here.

It seems that Ragnar lit the lantern himself to find me. And he was able to determine the location of the lamp.

‘Damn it.’

The lanterns were moving. A monster in the form of a giant was holding a lantern and moving.

The back of the head tingled as if it had been hit once. To use such an absurd move, I was full of desire to curse the game company.

It’s a shame that I noticed the trick even now. It would have been really dangerous if I hadn’t remembered the community’s article.

‘What are you going to do by dragging the time like this… !’

Despite Ragnar’s provocation, he secretly hid himself and watched the situation.

In the end, my goal was a cane. Judging from the fact that the lamp was being moved, it was clear that the staff was also being moved.

Then all you have to do is find the giant holding a staff.

After time passed and I did not appear, the lamp lit up one more time. I hid myself in the gradually brightening forest and watched closely.

His pupils were still rolling around. The monsters were also wandering around, unable to find me.

‘No matter how much, I wouldn’t openly carry it around.’

It was clear that he was hiding in the dark and defending his staff. At least, there was no way to recklessly expose it to a space illuminated by light.

Based on my direction, I was only wandering west. It was as if he was telling himself the location of the wand.

I headed east, avoiding the sight of the monster. I searched around for the giant hiding the wand.

And I finally found it.

‘As expected, my guess was correct.’

A giant crouched down with his staff clutched. He was looking around with empty eyes and a mouth that could not close.

I cautiously approached the giant and stabbed it in the heart. Unleashing his magic power, the blade radiated chills.

The giant, whose body froze in an instant, died without even screaming. He drew his sword from the icy corpse.

“Whoa…”

I found Ragnar’s staff in a pile of ice. Displeasure soared just from holding it in his hand.

The terrible scent of death. The stench of rotting corpses was vibrating.

‘Yes, you bastard… ! When are you there!’

It seems that Ragnar has finally found me. But it’s already too late.

“Goodbye.”

With a short goodbye, he cut the staff in half with his sword. The neatly cut staff began spewing out countless souls.

A whirlpool swirled in the air, mingling with the cries and screams of the souls. Among them, Ragnar’s voice must have been mixed in.

All the surrounding monsters also fell to the ground. The body that lost its owner never rose again.

The endless darkness was lifted, and the field of view was getting brighter.

***

A sharp metal sound rang out. The longsword fell to the floor and the electric shock faded.

Erina grabbed my hand with her tears streaming down her face.

“Seohyun-nim is really right… ? Are you really right?!”

With disbelief eyes, he grabbed my forearm and burst into tears.

It was constantly clinging to the collar and hugging itself. Warm warmth spread as the soft body came into his arms.

“Why did you do such a dangerous thing…!? It was something I had to protect… !”

“…”

“It’s okay though. As long as you’re all right, it doesn’t matter! Please never leave my side!”

Erina shed tears as she hugged me. Seeing her burst into tears made her headache worse.

And there was something else that caught her eye more than Erina.

A ruined monastery. Kayla grabbing her head with her blood dripping. Celica stuck by her side. And even the long sword that fell to the floor.

I immediately realized what had happened. While I was down, a fight broke out between Erina and Kayla.

Even Kayla was bleeding. She wouldn’t have been at the level of a simple quarrel.

“Erina.”

“Yes! Now…”

“Wait a minute.”

While holding back the anger that was welling up in my heart, I gently pushed Erina away.

You shouldn’t get angry in the current situation. The priority was to calm the situation calmly.

My words stopped the tears flowing down Erina’s cheeks. The act of trying to hug me also froze.

Leaving Erina alone, I approached Kayla. Fortunately, Celica, who was by her side, was healing her.

Kayla’s eyes were shaking. She held out her hand as if to hug me, but she didn’t come close.

“Are you okay… ?”

Kayla’s mouth barely moved. She smiled at her to reassure her.

“Yes. Are you okay.”

Ever since she got out of her soul prison, her head has been dizzy. Her body was fine, but her mental fatigue was settling in.

Still, she didn’t want to appear weak in front of her.

Kayla’s face softened slightly at my answer. But she still had the corners of her mouth down.

Kayla said she looked at me for a while, avoiding her gaze.

“Sorry. Lord…”

I could guess how she felt. How afraid she must have been in the situation where she was besieged by the demon king’s army.

It’s a pity that she arrived on time. Otherwise, her life would be in danger.

From her point of view, who has always devoted herself to me, today was nothing short of a nightmare.

I tried to hold her hand for Kayla. But she couldn’t reach her.

“Seohyun.”

Erina blocked my way while maintaining her smile.

With her arms open, she didn’t take her eyes off me. She separated herself from Kayla to keep her from reaching her.

“Never mind that b*tch.”

Her smile was more eerie than ever. Immediately, even Celica, who was in front of me, turned white.

“As long as you are safe.”

Erina came to me with her arms open to hug me again. But I couldn’t stay still either.

I grabbed Erina’s hand and shook her hand away from me. Then there was a crack in her smile.

Likewise, I could feel the difference.

Unlike usual, her strong hands felt a little light.
