115. A human that makes even the devil cry (4)

“Here it is. It’s all here.”

“under… … It’s really dirty.”

The place we arrived at was so filthy and far away that we had to go for a long time even if the elder and I took turns opening the ultra-long-distance portal while taking a break.

This was a place where even the demons who once reigned as the overlord could not take a step, as the [Dimension Map] that they had purchased and put to good use did not even show its location.

“Of course. Because this is another world that doesn’t use our system and rolls with a completely different system. To put it simply, if you compare it to Earth, it’s just the same area where you live on different continents, but you don’t have to go to each other and there’s little way to go.”

“… … It seems that there are a lot of tall people?”

“Hey, the ‘Pantheon’ on Earth wasn’t built for nothing.”

Pantheon, a word I’ve heard a lot somewhere, was the name of a famous cultural heritage on Earth called ‘Manshinjeon (萬神殿)’.

To the extent that such buildings were created even in a world where there was no point of contact, in a word, it was a story that there are far more terrifyingly more transcendent beings called ‘gods’ in the world than we thought.

“It’s a different world… … It seems that not all of the high-ranking people are close friends?”

“Those many, many high-ranking nobles end up forming factions with close friends like this and playing with each other.”

“That’s right, just thinking about it makes me shudder.”

“I agree too.”

Come to think of it, the Lord of Destruction was also a great guy.

“Looking at how they’ve invaded this far, it looks like they’re really going to keep that bullshit about killing all the gods.”

“Well, I’m not in a good mood right now, though. If it hadn’t been for my great [life is three times] power, our gods would have run after him by now, right?”

“… … .”

“lets think. Thanks to my authority, you got a powerful army including dragons, and a guy with a strange name came over there and gave you a clue to the seal, right?”

If he wanted to forget it, he would periodically boast about the results of the blessing and blessing powers he sowed.

Well, as a result, since we are benefiting from that strange power, I have no choice but to admit this honestly.

“Well… … What does that disapproving look mean?”

“Yes, the old man’s poop is the thickest in the world.”

“… … .”

But I can’t forgive myself for being forced to give birth to a cow and feeling the pain of juice extraction because of this nobleman’s goddamn authority.

Anyway, let’s do this for Saddam.

When you arrive in a new world like this, as always, there is something to be done first.

“Leviathan, open your mouth to let the jellyfish out.”

It’s always important to gather information and find out how the situation is going here through reconnaissance.

“Well… … .”

After a while.

It was a bit shocking to us to see the sight of the jellyfish scouting out.

“what… … They’re holding guns right now, right?”

“… … Is that so? Do you have a gun here?”

I never dreamed that I would see a movie-like scene here, where infantry lined up and opened fire in unison, then quickly wiped their guns and loaded gunpowder and ammunition through the muzzle.

They even charged with small gunpowder bombs in their hands, and were massacring the enemy while supporting long-distance firepower with an object resembling a mortar from the rear.

“It is rare. Originally, if there were things like magic and temples, wouldn’t they make things like that?”

“I know. It’s the first time I’ve seen anything like this.”

In a world where divine power or mana can be handled, it was very common for priests, knights, or wizards to fill the place where firearms would play an active role, and instead of science and technology, studies such as magic engineering developed.

It is truly surprising that there are people who develop and use guns like this, other than humans, a race that is crazy about science and dwarves who can’t stand their own dexterity.

This was the first sight even for me, who had traveled around the world to learn about civilizations.

“A battlefield musket used in real combat and a mortar… … .”

“Hey, isn’t that old wagon that emits steam and black smoke a steam engine?”

They are even supplying wagons with steam engines.

“… … The way children live is at the level of the Middle Ages, but the weapons and cars running around are at the level of the modern age. How the hell can a steampunk party be held here?”

Of course, those objects are considerably inferior compared to the current level of human technology, but it was a very strange sight to be able to make such an object itself.

In the center of such a spectacle, it was not difficult to find a commander who deftly handled line infantry and dealt with demon forces.

“Is that the fourth missing Bokbulbok Power player?”

“Oh, he is right.”

“Anyway, that friend seems to be the one who spread the guns here… … .”

“Perhaps? Actually, the gun is not needed if the player has the power, but here, even though you can get the power through training, you have everything you need in guns, cannons, and grenades. He is probably the culprit who introduced mechanical civilization to this world.”

Excluding humans and dwarves, the level of technology that could be confirmed outwardly was the highest in this world.

All of the appearances confirmed through the Legion’s jellyfish seemed to have developed only in the part related to the ‘Army’.

“What kind of power did that friend originally have?”

“He? It was roughly the same lineage as you.”

“Well? Similar to [Defense Master]?”

There were all sorts of reasons why this side’s technological power was strangely high compared to the level where it should have been.

“He was a mechanic. An authority that specializes in creating automated objects that operate with divine power. Maybe you didn’t buy and use those things too? He’s the one who made and sold things like defensive statues that are a bit cheap.”

“… … It must be faster than anyone else to make something.”

In any case, the person who has been lucky enough to return in this world is exuding an unusual force.

A splendid figure with something attached to a glittering uniform.

It was quite impressive to see the line infantry and artillery perfectly coordinated as if I were rolling a legion with a single command.

“Well… … Doesn’t he look like Milduck?”

It’s not about dealing with modernized infantry, but dealing with line infantry like that, it can be done with some knowledge about the field.

“Well, authority isn’t given randomly, but it tends to be distributed according to one’s own personality. By the way, do you think you’re pretty quick about that too?”

I looked at the manager and shrugged my shoulders.

“I didn’t get that kind of power for nothing. Well, even if I had it now, it wouldn’t be of much use.”

Anyway, this world was fighting so well that it wasn’t worth running a long distance in a hurry, perhaps because of that mechanic’s ability.

A volley of well-trained line infantry full of divine power, and with that one shot, the army sent by the Lord of Destruction was evaporating in an instant.

On the battlefield, where the smoke created by the muskets became thick and foggy, the army of destruction was gradually being pushed back to their portals.

“Hey, that’s really great. You hunt them on your own without any help here, right?”

“So, I don’t think we have anything to do here?”

The army sent by the Lord of Ruin was not really led by a proper demon, but the ability to push them back with their own power was truly amazing.

The Paladins who were struggling against the demons were also defending one of their last remaining cities, but this place was rather busy hunting the enemies.

“It’s quite a lot.”

No matter how much a gun is a weapon called the King of All Byeongji (萬兵之王), how on earth can it exert such a powerful potential with an object that requires bullets and ammunition to be pushed in one by one?

“Let’s meet once more.”

Anyway, I have a question.

“Old man.”

“uh.”

“Does that friend have a strange name too?”

“ah… … his name? Come to think of it, the name sounds a bit like that.”

“As expected, that friend also looks strange.”

This was a very odd thing.

Friends who suffered a lot in their previous lives because of their unique names were unique in their next lives.

Like me, the main character of the cartoon, Mi-yeong who was teased for being the head of the loan team, the guy who combined the names of communist giants together, and that friend seem to be at least the rulers of this world.

At this point, I wonder if it’s hard to think that it’s just a coincidence that a person with a strange name has returned and become popular.

The administrator himself doesn’t know much about it, but it’s clear that his goddamn authority has some strange element in it, such as cumulative points due to karma from a previous life.

“So what is that friend’s name?”

“He’s a delay.”

“… … Just in case, was that friend a woman in his previous life?”

“Oh, come to think of it, I’m a man now.”

Well, it’s about changing gender. I was born a cow, so I can say that.

But, besides that, something a little strange?

“Is the name Jiyeon too common?”

“… … It’s because your last name is a bit strange.”

“okay? What is that last name?”

“Jiwoo, do you really need to know? This is a bit strange… … .”

What surname should be added in front of the alternative name, so that you can suffer tremendously with the common name Jiyeon?

In response to my continued questioning to resolve this question, the manager, who is usually known for just going out, said with a slightly troubled expression on his face for some reason.

“Hey, don’t say I told you. Never pronounce or add his name strongly.”

“… … Well?”

“His last name was ‘Hwangbo’.”

Aha.

The name is fine, but the last name is very wrong… … .

“What the hell were the parents of that friend’s previous life thinking, putting ‘Ji’ after the surname… … .”

“Uh-huh, let’s stop.”

I silently repeated the name of her, or rather, his friend’s previous life, a few times.

That’s why, if the pronunciation comes out a little too hard, or if the timing to cut off in the middle is ambiguous… … .

“No, even if you don’t want to pronounce it so hard?”

“… … .”

“Let’s just say I know his name.”

Apparently, that friend seems to have the most overwhelmingly painful name among those who have the damned Bok-Bul-Bok power.

To be honest, the existing three, including me, were still just objects of ‘teasing’, and they weren’t names that boasted such a strong presence.

Anyway, it was just then that we were about to go down to the ground and meet another bokbulbok player.

“uh… … Hey, is Jiyeon here?”

* * *

The bullets imbued with the priests’ divine power burned and annihilated the enemies just by brushing them, and thanks to this, the well-trained army’s demon hunting went very smoothly.

“Your Majesty, I see the enemy’s entrance.”

“Leave only one entrance to dispatch the investigation team, and destroy them all.”

“I understand, Your Majesty.”

The great emperor’s army, which unified the continent based on its superior technology, finally succeeded in pushing the enemy to the end.

Of course, no matter how smoothly they drove the enemy, they were basically dealing with strong guys, so there was no choice but to have quite a few casualties in the course of the battle.

The only emperor in this world laughed bitterly at the terrible sight of the corpses that had been melted down by enemies here and there.

“The remains of the dead?”

“All burned.”

“… … i get it.”

The unidentified flames emitted by the enemies, it was a vicious weapon that would turn a soldier’s body into ashes if it touched it, unless that part was amputated.

No matter how much the divine power was buffed, it was impossible to subdue such enemies in an instant with a musket-level weapon that took a long time to load and had poor range and accuracy.

‘I don’t even want a train. But at least if I had made a proper rifle, I wouldn’t have to make such a big sacrifice… … .’

The emperor lost his authority and could not directly create equipment with divine power as he did in his previous life, but based on that memory, he created the best weapons that could be created in the conditions of this world and conquered the continent.

However, in a world with only the early medieval level of technology in his hometown, the only weapons he could make were a modern musket with an iron pipe threaded into a tree and a trigger attached, and black gunpowder with a cloud of smoke.

‘This will not be the end of the enemy’s attack. I have to create a more powerful weapon.’

It was enough to conquer a continent that relied on spears and cavalry with the weapons they had now, but in their previous hometown, they were antique items that disappeared in the 19th century.

The next time the enemy comes back stronger, it will inevitably cause more casualties.

“Everybody did a good job. Rest everyone. However, the battle isn’t over yet, so don’t let your guard down.”

The emperor roamed around without rest, encouraging soldiers who fought fierce battles, checking the condition of wounded soldiers, or even pouring wine on them.

“Long live His Majesty—!!!”

The soldiers who were taking a break each shouted cheers or shed tears of emotion at the sight of the emperor.

In the midst of such a warm spectacle, a strange cry was heard.

“D-It’s a dragon!!!”

At that moment, everyone’s eyes turned to the sky.
