STGB Chapter 575

Episode 575 Return (1)

A featureless white mask.

He wears a dark-colored robe that covers his entire body, and his hands, the only part of which skin is exposed, are wrinkled.

“Hey… who is that grandfather?”

“….”

A black mask and a butterfly make a suspicious look at the stranger’s visit.

However, the queen, who was in the same position for the first time, was different.

“No way…”

It’s the same as meeting someone for the first time, but it seemed like he realized who the old man was.

“master…!”

Soon after, the wolf realized the identity of the uninvited guest and jumped up and ran out.

“Long live wolf. How have you been?”

“Thanks to me, I am always fine. But what are you doing here, Master? If you would give me a word…”

Words that make anyone guess that there is a connection between the two.

“Isn’t this the last one? I went to see the face once and covered it. I have work to do here.”

“What to do… you mean?”

The wolf was curious about the contents, but the master did not tell him in detail.

Makes me curious about who’s listening to it.

“Rather than that… can you step aside for a moment? I want to say hello to the others too.”

“ah…! sorry!”

When the master noticed, the wolf immediately apologized and went back to his seat.

Anyone who sees it will know it’s a dog, not a wolf.

As I watched the situation while thinking about that, the Master’s gaze moved to me.

“Casuality is truly mysterious. How does it feel to watch the end?”

Unlike when we first met at the round table, he had no intention of hiding that he was ‘Auril Gavis’ anymore.

Of course, it wasn’t anything unusual.

[The Master of the Round Table is Auril Gavis.]

The Wolf has already brought out that information here.

The reason the information came out in the first place must have been with the permission of this old man.

Tuk-tuk.

Then why did you reappear here?

Seeing that close relationship, if the purpose was to convey words to me, I could have just had the wolf do it.

While turning the calculator inside, I received the words naturally.

“Nothing at all.”

“Hmm, is that so? I knew you would feel a little sad. Actually, isn’t this place the same as what you made?”

well it’s not like that

Although it wasn’t exactly the round table, it made the system of this game of truth.

“Pi fisit?!”

“The Round Table… that person made it…?”

The problem was the reaction of the people listening next to me.

***

One word, two words, three words.

“Oh, of course, that was 20 years ago… At that time, there were only demons from the other world.”

Every time I continue my conversation with the master, violent reactions erupt from all over the place.

“You mean there was a round table 20 years ago…?”

“No, more than that, an evil spirit from another world…”

Huh is very annoying.

If this is going to happen, can’t we just talk quietly between the two of us?

I think so, but I decided to turn my attention to this part for now. Now, just dealing with this old man makes my head explode.

“So what’s going on here?”

“Didn’t I tell you? He said he had something to do, so he came to see his face after a long time.”

After saying that, the old man shifted his gaze and spoke to the other members.

“Nice to meet you, Miss Fox. How are you?”

“yes? Ah ah… yes… long time no see.”

“Honestly, I was a little disappointed. You followed me so well when I had nothing, and now I don’t even think of you as a benefactor. chuckle.”

“How could that…!”

At the mention of what had just been said, the fox was visibly taken aback, and the others lit up their eyes.

oh how would you know that

It’s obvious even if you don’t listen to the reason.

The old man has the means to eavesdrop on everything being said here.

That’s what it means.

‘…He’s always heard about this place.’

Goosebumps run down your spine.

I knew it was sinister, but I never thought it would be so nasty.

The really creepy part is that when I opened the door to that subject and came in, I skillfully said that there was a mask I couldn’t see.

Lies are built into your body like a habit…

“Hey… it’s not like that…”

“You don’t have to make excuses. I’m really fine, never mind.”

Still, it would be true that I was fine.

For this old man, the existence of a fox would have no value whatsoever. Even if they bleed and die in front of their eyes, if there is no reason to save them, they will just watch.

“hey.”

Then the queen, who had been watching silently, joined the conversation.

“Is that… really the Master of the Round Table… Auril Gavis?”

“Is that so?”

“…There is something I want to ask you. Wolf-sama said that you have the power to prevent the community from shutting down… Really?”

“It is true. Because I was the one who undermined your authority in the first place.”

A very casual statement.

At this, the queen paused for a long time before asking again.

“…I beg your pardon?”

Seeing that reaction, Auril Gavis continued with a laugh that sounded nasty.

“You said there was a problem with the device, but the device I gave to that friend is actually fine. It just felt like the authority transferred to me was slowly being erased.”

“Taking authority away… How is that possible?”

“Well, there was no way I would have handed everything over to that friend in an intact state.”

A concise and clear answer that leaves the listener speechless.

“Don’t be too sorry. I’m just getting back what was originally mine. Besides, haven’t you been using it well?”

“….”

“Then let’s end this conversation here….”

Auril Gavis, who had kept the queen’s mouth clean, walked over and placed her hand on the jewel on the round table.

and that moment.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-.

The jewel changes into light particles like a monster corpse disappearing in a labyrinth and flows through Auril Gavis’ fingertips.

“This is the end of what we have to do.”

Unlike the other members who blankly watched it, I could see what that action meant.

Twenty years ago, Auril Gavis said he lost most of his control of the space while creating the Gems of the Round Table.

Therefore, based on this, I can guess…

“He came to get his authority back.”

Auril Gavis regained his former authority with this.

“Right. Now I can do anything in this space. In short, these too.”

As wrinkled hands stirred the air, all the members’ masks except for me were removed.

Took.

Masks peeled off and fell on the table as if pulled by an invisible hand.

“Kyaaak!”

“…!”

“P-sit?”

Soon, the true face of the members hidden behind the mask is revealed, and a bout of confusion comes.

Some covered their faces with both hands, while others squatted on the floor so their faces could not be seen. Also, someone stared blankly into space.

Of course, not all were so passive.

Whoo-!

Someone made the quick decision to log out as soon as the mask was removed.

Even two people at the same time.

“Contrary to how you look, you’re a shy friend, aren’t you? I don’t think it matters if everyone sees your real appearance.”

The first tooth that disappeared in an instant without saying goodbye was a clown.

what did he look like

I think he was white, but he disappeared so quickly that I couldn’t get a good look at him.

Contrary to expectations, it seems that he was a little fat…

‘The one who disappeared again… is a black mask.’

The seat where the black mask had been was vacant.

This one even escaped faster than the clown, so I didn’t really see it at all.

So, before escaping further, I took a quick look around.

“…what the hell is this!”

The queen, who screamed in embarrassment, had the appearance of a typical foreigner with blonde hair and blue eyes.

Well, it’s not like she’s a beauty or anything like that.

He looks really normal and is estimated to be in his early thirties. The members looked at it in surprise, but felt doubts.

“For some reason… the face is familiar…”

It was highly likely that it was not just a whim.

Because the queen serves as a guide to judge whether a newbie is a real player or not.

Anyway, next.

‘Goblin is…’

Unexpectedly handsome.

No, he’s also very handsome.

Do I think I can become an actor?

I thought he was Southeast Asian because of his dark skin, but in reality he was a typical South American handsome man.

‘Is he South American handsome for short?’

South American handsome.

It’s an absurd coincidence that it’s the same even if it’s reversed.

‘…This is not important.’

I rolled my eyes and checked all the bare faces of the naked members.

I know that appearance in the community doesn’t mean anything, but honestly, I was a little curious.

What kind of people are they actually?

‘Butterfly is Asian. The fox looks younger than I thought. Wolf, as expected, is just Mr….’

A secret round table meeting.

A conversation between the deceased people there.

However, their faces beyond the masks that increased the sense of mystery were too ordinary. There was no one who seemed particularly strong, and no one seemed to have a toxic mind.

But…

‘I’m sure it’s no different.’

Who would imagine looking at Lee Han-soo’s face?

He would be an optimist who could crack people’s heads with a hammer and laugh even when their limbs were ripped off and covered in blood.

So will you.

There’s no one among them who hasn’t had a drop of blood on their hands.

All of those people died long ago.

“Hey… why did you take off the mask… a little Joe… no, to be honest, it’s a lot uncomfortable… Ah! It’s not that… I’m not angry or anything like that…”

Soon after, the goblin noticed and spoke cautiously, and Auril Gavis answered right away.

“Hmm, weren’t you guys curious too? Who are the people you talk to every time? Since it’s the last time, I thought it wouldn’t be bad to take off our masks and hang out together.”

“Uh… is that so?”

The goblin nodded with a bewildered expression and immediately glanced at me.

I couldn’t even hear what he was trying to say.

“But… Why is the monk…”

“Why didn’t you take off the mask?”

“Yes that’s right.”

Auril Gavis unmasked everyone without their consent, but I was an exception.

If so, what is the reason?

“Cuckold, I’m a bit cautious about dealing with that friend, too! You don’t know how to get away with being rude.”

“Ah… is that so?”

After hearing the answer, the goblin awkwardly nodded.

It was kind of funny.

If you’re going to say no and just agree after hearing an answer like that, then why did you ask the question?

Well, if it was a goblin, it was a goblin.

“….”

“..”

A strange silence flows in that state.

Auril Gavis didn’t say anything and seemed to be enjoying the situation itself, and the members kept glancing at me.

Seeing as if he wanted me to do something, in the end, I had no choice but to speak first.

“so… Is the business over now?”

It means to urge you to tell me if you have more business.

I said it unbecoming of me, but luckily the meaning seemed to be conveyed well.

“no. There is still one thing left.”

“one thing?”

“I have a question I want to ask you.”

“okay? Go ahead and try it.”

I said as if I readily agreed.

It was a judgment that it was okay to listen to the question first and decide whether to answer or not.

But…

“There are too many listeners to ask questions.”

Auril Gavis glanced around in a sly voice.

“But I feel sorry for kicking him out right away. I was forced to reveal my face, but shouldn’t there be at least a reward for that?”

As soon as I heard the word reward, my body felt stronger.

There was no way this old man would offer me anything like compensation just because he was really sorry.

I’m sure there must be some ulterior motive behind it…

“It’s not fun to just give a reward, so let’s play a game together.”

As expected, the words get longer.

“Game… you mean?”

“Yes game. Don’t you guys like it too? By the way, I’m thinking of giving the reward to just one person who won the game.”

“…do you know what the reward is?”

The goblin checked the reward before even hearing what kind of game it was, and Gavis, Aureil, replied coolly without saying anything about putting it off for later fun.

“I will send you home.”

Everyone’s eyes changed.
