Chapter 183: Does the NPC Really Marry Rin in Front of the Hero?

"During the journey, the hero met Master Therapist who was rescuing villagers, and together they fought off the attacking goblin army. Now, before they part ways, should the hero invite Master Therapist to join them on the adventure?"

"No."

Waste Hero quickly refused, even mischievously tossing the game piece representing Master Therapist off the board several times. Seeing the piece always return to its original position, Waste Hero still wouldn’t give up and ended up poking the piece off the board.

"Please players, don’t break the rules."

"Please players, let’s not do that. Otherwise, the game cannot continue, my friend."

"If you continue like this, you may have to forcefully end your game journey, my friend."

"Fool!"

Until Rin fiercely hit her forehead, Waste Hero held her head and calmed down.

"Bother me again while I’m playing games, I’ll hit you."

After another threat, Rin finally looked at his pieces, currently resting in a hotel.

"Archmage was attacked by a succubus in his sleep. Luckily, it was just a weak succubus. After you subdued her, she begged for mercy tearfully.

This was her first time attacking a human, because she couldn’t resist her hunger. She hopes you can forgive her and promises to behave.

Now, your choice is to spare her or kill her."

"No need to ask."

With a cruel and triumphant expression, Rin punched hard, "Surely bats like her must be eliminated! Kill her!"

"When you tried to attack her, the succubus blew a purple gas at you, took the chance to escape, and warned you that her sister, who is very powerful, would come to avenge her."

"Hmm, what a stinky bat! If one of them comes, this young master will kill one, if two come, I will kill a pair!"

Since it was just a game, Rin was not going to be polite. If possible, he wanted to hang the Demon King on the sign in front of the Demon King Castle and make her beg for mercy.

"Please continue rolling the dice."

"As a hero, without a holy sword, it’s impossible to slay the Demon King. But now you have heard news of a sacred sword in the far east. Will you go there?"

"No, let’s keep moving forward."

Waste Hero had only one goal in mind.

That was to meet up with Rin before the other pieces could.

Whether it was intentional or just a coincidence, she clearly noticed that although the other game pieces were moving erratically, sometimes up and sometimes down, they were all converging towards Rin’s game piece from all directions.

Just from this, Waste Hero felt time was running out. Not only was reality full of mean girls, even the NPCs in the game wanted to steal her treasure.

"Hey, silly cat! If you don’t go get the Holy Sword, how are we going to defeat the Demon King later?"

Rin glared at Waste Hero, looking like he was gaming with his best friend and realizing he was a noob who loved to loot and level up.

"I want to find my treasure, meow~"

Emilia let out a cute meow that left Rin speechless, he could only sigh and say, "Never mind, it’s just a game. Just be careful in the future and let me know as soon as you find any news about the Holy Sword."

"So troublesome, can’t we…"

"No, it’s necessary! When I have time, I’ll go with you."

"Oh."

Waste Hero nodded, no longer stubborn.

By the way, the hero definitely needs the sacred sword, but after the previous hero disappeared, the sacred sword also disappeared without a trace.

According to tradition, every time the hero defeats the Demon King or is defeated by the Demon King, the sacred sword will leave and then scatter somewhere in the world.

With the sacred sword, the hero’s chances of defeating the Demon King are greatly enhanced. Throughout history, only a few heroes, for various reasons, even with the sacred sword, were unable to kill the Demon King.

One was corrupted by consciousness and polluted the sacred sword with their own hands, one fell in love with the Demon King and ultimately didn’t strike, choosing to die together.

The third one is the previous hero who disappeared.

"The hero encountered a group of abyssal monsters performing a ritual, killing them all, but accidentally fell into the abyss."

Fortunately, you received the blessing of the goddess. In the abyss, there is a distorted space, and she will teleport you to the southern continent, but you are currently unconscious and will stop for two turns."

Waste Hero glanced at her chess piece and realized that she was not teleported further away from Rin, feeling slightly relieved but anxious knowing she had to pause for two turns.

After that, Rin passed two turns calmly, encountering monsters both times with nothing special happening.

"At that time, the Sword Saint happened to arrive in the town and saw the hero who was being treated in a house…"

Rin smacked his lips and said, "Looks like you want to join the team again, right? Hmm, truly…"

Halfway through her words, she choked back, feeling like she had just been hit in the face by the Sword Saint’s dog tail.

"The Sword Saint said that she had an adopted son who she needed to find and marry. She explained that she couldn’t go on an adventure with the hero, so she left the adventure guild, sold her sword, took thirty gold coins, and left."

"…"

Why does this Sword Saint give me a sense of déjà vu? Why do I feel so strongly about this?

Rin thought about his poor friend, the Sword Saint… He probably isn’t doing too well either.

"The Archmage’s misfortune seems to be approaching. You have just been through two battles, your magic is severely depleted, and then you meet a purple-haired woman who tells you she is the sister of the succubus you almost killed before."

Rin’s heart suddenly thumped, thinking he might just meet his end here.

"But this succubus seems more interested in you, just giving you a tattoo and planning to leave. Before leaving, she said, ‘Seems like an arrogant but actually easy to fool magician. Showtime! Try your best to please her.’"

"This guy really gives off a strong sense of déjà vu."

Rin couldn’t help but grind his teeth, "The tone, it’s so similar to that brat I met last time, and also with purple hair."

With this in mind, Rin suddenly frowned, "I almost forgot about your Observation Eye, Waste Hero. Is that guy really just an ordinary kid?"

"It seems so."

Waste Hero nodded, saying it seems so because there are still some magical things in the world that can deceive Observation Eye.

Rin was no longer curious and the two of them were playing a game of dice back and forth.

Finally, after more than a dozen rounds, they met each other and traveled together for several more rounds. They should either find a teammate next or continue searching for the whereabouts of the Holy Sword.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

"After the battle, you returned to the hot spring inn in the town and went into separate hot spring pools for men and women."

"The Archmage was relaxing in the hot spring when the innkeeper’s daughter, who has always been very caring towards you, came in. She confessed her feelings for you and proposed marriage. What will you choose?"

"What? Marriage? No way! I refuse!" exclaimed Rin in disbelief.

Undeterred, the innkeeper’s daughter told you that she is actually wealthy and powerful. If you marry her, you won’t have to struggle anymore, even dealing with the Demon King could be handled.

Now, you must decide whether to be with her.

Rin sneered disdainfully and said, "Who does she think she is, teaching me what to do! I won’t marry her, let her go climb a mountain!"

Despite your repeated rejections, she cried sadly. After a while, she let out a low laugh, sprouted demonic horns on her head, and transformed into her true form.

She subdued you and revealed that she is the Demon King. Feeling bored, she had come to play among humans. She had grown fond of you and decided to take you back to the Demon King Castle.

"She gave you two choices: either cooperate peacefully and go with her, or be knocked unconscious and taken away bound. You must choose."

"？？？"

Rin’s heart was racing like a herd of wild horses, but he managed to control himself and didn’t curse out loud.

At this moment, he suddenly regretted playing this game.

This Demon King feels so familiar, why is he so strong!

No way, is this something a regular fortune-telling tool can do? Is it a trick?

Emilia’s eyes turned into cat-like pupils, staring intensely at the cartoon likeness of the Demon King, debating whether to draw her sword.

"Right now, as the hero, you sense a surge of dark energy and locate your teammates. Will you step in to save them?"

"Act, you stinky woman! Kill her."

"At this moment, you are no match for the Demon King, quickly defeated, and watch helplessly as she kisses the Archmage in front of you."

"The Archmage’s enchanted tattoo suddenly activated, and the Demon King said they had to hurry and have a meeting here in advance."
