Never Die Extra

Chapter 262

Evan D. Sherden, becoming the Count (5)

When Evan heard that Renail, one of the main heroes of Yo-Ma Great War 3, was getting ready to come out of the tower, he first thought about what to do, but finally, he let Maybell watch and protect Renail from a distance.

He approached hastily from the side and decided that it would be much better to protect her this way than to create

If she were to meet the main character of Yo-Ma Great War 3, of course, it was a good thing, and if she didn’t, it wouldn’t be too late to think about what to do with her.

“If she comes to the dungeon city and doesn’t meet the main character, it’ll be okay to induce some action. Put her in the Phoenix Guild and nurture her as a combat wizard, or maybe Maybell will come forward and train her as a mercenary.”

“Is she that talented?”

“Yes, she is. The tower doesn’t reveal personal information, so outsiders are not aware. She’s the best there. She’s more of a theoretical than a practical person, so she went on as an explorer to make up for it. ….That’s what my intuition tells me.”

Unlike a stage boy who arrived in Sherden without much combat capability and recklessly went straight ahead as an explorer, she had magical powers equivalent to a beginner’s level, a type of safety device that saved characters who were prone to early trolls.

Not only was her ability highly ranked at the time of her appearance, but she also had great potential as a wizard. She would be at least the same rank as Arisha… Evan thought about this, and then shook his head.

Of course, the two characters’ abilities were described almost identically in the game, but now he was not playing the game. Arisha was not data, but she had changed and grown beyond the game since their first meeting as children.

‘It’s rude to compare Arisha to Renail. I haven’t even met her yet.’

Of course, he could be sure that her ability was outstanding unless the game’s data was incorrect, but that was it. One couldn’t compare it with anyone else.

“I thought….”

After accepting all his instructions, Maybell nodded with a look of relief.

“I thought you were protecting Renail to keep her as a concubine.”

“…What?”

“There’s a rumor going around that she’s pretty. Even the tower, which thoroughly hides personal information, couldn’t hide that information. So I was wondering if the Master might have his eye on her…”

That sounded unreasonable. Evan said it was ridiculous, but Maybell looked genuinely relieved.

“If I were crazy for pretty girls, you would be on top of the list.”

“Oh, how dare you! Oh! Oh! For real!”

Maybell slapped Evan on the arm and felt ashamed. Evan’s skin, which wouldn’t form a scratch even if he were to get punched by an Ogre’s fist, shouldn’t have felt that much pain, but there was something in Maybell’s palm that penetrated. Was this a Maid’s technique? Evan seriously considered it.

“Maybell, it hurts.”

“You can’t seduce a woman like that, Master! Where did you learn that?”

At first, he thought that there was something wrong with what he did, but Evan didn’t feel so bad when he saw Maybell looking explicitly happy.

“It’s because of this face of mine. If someone else said that to you, Maybell, you would have bashed them.”

“Oh, that’s true, too.”

Shine, who was just listening to the conversation between the two, spoke with a sigh as if it was amazing to see Maybell seriously nodding her head in joy.

“Am I interrupting? Do you want me to excuse you?”

“No, I’m going out. I have to carry out the Master’s orders. I’ll be heading off then, Master.”

“Oh, yes. Please.”

Maybell winked at Evan and really stepped down. Evan saw her off and, of course, nodded.

“She’s changed.”

“She would’ve been trying to take you to the bedroom if it was before.”

“I beg you; can’t you say it more decently?”

Evan replied with a sigh and shrugged at Shine’s words. He thought he should set a date soon and talk to Maybell. Maybell was included in everything Evan agreed to accept, of course.

‘…I’m actually afraid of leaving out Maybell.’

Of course, this fact would be hidden from others to the end.

It was a pity that Evan, who even hunted Gefrel of the Four Heavenly Kings alone, was afraid of Maybell.

Time really flew by. The great chaos brought by the dungeon’s opening, the explorers and the Brotherhood Boutique, and the Brotherhood Brewery were safely completed and opened while the residents of Sherden adapted to the changes.

The Brewery had been only purchasing raw materials on a large scale since it took a long time for the results to come out, but the Boutique had definitely gained popularity since the first day of its opening. Even the explorers who had gone into the dungeon were sensitive to fashion—especially female explorers, and more especially, the wizards.

‘I don’t know why I didn’t think of this before. It’s thrilling to see warriors and wizards on the front line of mankind wearing clothes I designed!’

Ottpah, a popular designer in the Royal Road, seemed very satisfied with the new environment. Even Evan, who was able to use material made of fabric from the dungeon, was satisfied.

In order to use genius materials in games, they had no choice but to go to the Royal Road or Mana Road, but now it had been solved. The dungeon city of Sherden was gradually transforming into a perfect environment that anyone in the Yo-Ma Great War Series would dream of.

“Evan, can you prepare a prototype of the wine for the day of the festival? It’s a day of celebration for all of Sherden’s people, and I would like to celebrate it with wine produced by Sherden.”

“It should be possible by then, Father. The supply and demand for raw materials are also slowly stabilizing.”

It was only two months after the dungeon was opened, and in the middle of May, Sherden began to stabilize.

After countless bloodshed, the explorers realized the natural truth that they could not attack the dungeon just by rushing, and the large guilds who had been watching the situation until then, began to move. In other words, a stable supply of materials began in the Brotherhood Brewery.

“Astray will be moving slowly.”

“Yes, of course, you don’t have to rush.”

Evan nodded at the words of Marquis Soline, but was still thinking about the reports he had received.

In fact, what was surprising was that the dungeon after the alteration did not change much compared to what he had learned in his previous life by playing games.

“So many different things happened that I thought the dungeon would be different, but it wasn’t at all. If I had known this would happen, I would have gone in much earlier.’

At least that was what explorers who had gone into the dungeon have figured out. Dungeons were wider and had more diverse environments. It was the same for the Sherden Dungeon, which led to the mid-to-late stage of Yo-Ma Great War 3.

From what he had both seen and heard, the monsters and traps that appeared were the same. That was why Evan wanted to step up, to dig deep and see if the place hadn’t changed, either.

“You should always be careful in the dungeon, Evan. As much as it’s clear that the Demons are involved in this dungeon.”

“Yes, Father. Maybe there’s a hidden hint about Merdin in the dungeon.”

“Well.”

The Marquis’ countenance changed at the words. Why not? The most terrible tragedy of all the cities in the world was in Merdin.

Rather, if the Demons’ airstrikes completely ruined the place, they could manage it somehow and deal with it. However, the city itself had been blocked due to the fault line.

Unless there was a way to destroy the scaffolding, it was forced into isolation.

“I’m worried about them. Not only that, but I haven’t heard from the contemporary rulers in Merdin…”

“There’s a rumor that the second prince has escaped, so we’ll have to wait and see.”

“Well.”

The Marquis only drooled at the words. This meant that it was negative. Of course, he and Evan were well aware that the possibility of surviving the deficit of the Merdin family was extremely slim.

On the day of the tragedy, could any of the madmen, who were so thorough as to storm Sherden and Pellati, have ever missed a member of the Merdin family? If they missed it, it would be ridiculous that they couldn’t find that person after such a long time.

‘Luden’s description in the Yo-Ma Great War Series was so great that I thought he might have had a chance.’

In the Yo-Ma Great War Series, the Merdin Dungeon was a place where it wasn’t as stunning compared to Sherden and Pellati, but Luden’s charisma, which appeared only once in the film, was truly intense. Definitely as good as Evan as a symbol of overwhelming competence!

His ability and commands were so great that he could understand that he had inherited Merdin beyond his own brother, and because of him, they could enjoy wealth and prosperity.

In fact, in this movie, while Sherden and Pellati were being beaten by the Demons, like a neighborhood drum, only Merdin was relaxed in blocking the demons. He even had enough time to send Merdin’s Dungeon Knights to save Sherden and Pellati.

‘But the Demon Invasion has happened when he is still young and doesn’t have enough ability. Phew…….’

Merdin had Luden. He didn’t contact him because he thought it would be okay to have many if he knew this would happen, he would have tried to figure things out ahead of time. No, that wouldn’t have stopped the tragedy of that day, but…

Evan looked bitter, and the Marquis took his hand and patted him as if he had read his mind.

“When I think about it… I’m so glad you saved Sherden and Pellati.”

“Don’t say that. It’s just the result of working together.”

“It was originally an unstoppable tragedy. You can be more proud of yourself now that you’ve stopped it, Evan.”

The latter continued, looking at Evan with a sad expression.

“I’m worried that you’re pushing yourself too hard since that day.”

“Don’t worry, I’m getting a good rest, Father. I’m just doing what I can.”

“Okay, that’s a relief. But if you’re having a hard time, consult me anytime. Don’t forget that father’s always on your side.”

“Yes, Father.”

Evan held back a few tears at the words of Marquis Soline. As expected, his family is too soft for Evan.

However, for Evan, who was under severe pressure internally and externally, the family’s soft attitude was just what he needed. It felt like he was regaining his energy and ardor.

“I’ll talk to you if I have a hard time, Dad.”

“Okay.”

A week later, Evan entered the dungeon with Diona in the senior group.

Every time he finished the first floor and checked that there was no particular risk, he followed the junior group and explored and dug up all the sections that could be searched quickly.

When they came out of the dungeon, July was already approaching when the festival was held.

Diona had then reached level 31.
