Chapter 287: Acquiring What's Needed: Seeking Elsewhere
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“No way, no way, no way, no way, does such a thing exist? Not enough… huh?”Feeling a subtle response in the strength I put into it, I inadvertently grimaced and cursed at no one in particular. I mean, come on, how should I deal with this…?
“…O, one more time. Let’s reorganize the situation one more time. And let’s get out of here.”
Since the Demon King had already been defeated, there was no need to stay in this hole forever. After putting away the silver-winged sword and stepping outside the cave, the sunlight welcomed me. That made me feel a little better, but the situation hadn’t changed.
I casually sat on a nearby rock and looked up at the sky to reassess the situation once again.
At present, I have collected nine of the Demon King’s powers. But I felt that I still needed a little more power to leap to where Tia is.
Of course, it’s just a feeling. There was a possibility that I could leap if I put my mind to it, but I don’t know what would happen if I failed. If it’s just that I would end up in some random world, that might still be manageable, but what if the silver-winged sword broke under the strain of the power or I was attacked by the God for moving a great force? There were countless worst-case scenarios I could imagine.
In that case, I really can’t take risks. If there were no other means, I wouldn’t hesitate to try, but since I still have three feathers left and there were still Demon Kings to defeat, it’s even more reason not to.
“The choice to defeat one of the Demon Kings is settled, then. The problem is which one to choose, huh…”
The easiest one to defeat would be the Demon King Chrome in Rain’s world. Since the memories of the Demon King were naturally rewound, I could easily take him down if I caught him engrossed in some idol’s performance.
But that’s not what I want to do. I would defeat him to meet Tia even if I were called a villain, but if possible, I’d like to choose another method. Besides my personal feelings, Chrome was supposed to be resurrecting the world he ruined, so it’s scary not knowing what will happen to that world if he dies.
In the next round, the existence of the Demon King will be gone from the beginning… I’m not planning to think like that. There is no “next” for the people living in this world now. If I forget that and act like a god, I’ll probably never be able to laugh in front of Tia again.
So, it’s the same with John. John has too much influence over the world, and frankly, I don’t know what to do with him… besides, that world was developing because John was doing various things from behind the scenes, so I can’t even imagine what kind of world it would be if I defeated him.
Also, although it’s entirely baseless intuition, I probably can’t defeat John. It’s not just that my body was weak and John’s fighting style was highly refined and strong, but I can’t imagine a future where I would win.
“John is… John, huh… I don’t feel like I can defeat him at all…”
Somehow, I feel like Canal will come to help if I corner John, and then, somehow, the picture of Demon King John & Hero Canal VS Great Demon King Me will be completed, and in the end, I will lose and there will be a happy ending… I can clearly see this scene.
Yeah, it’s inevitable. No matter how I twist and turn it, I can’t escape the position of “The Great Demon King, the promised losing part at the end of the story of the hero and the demon king.” Let’s make defeating John the last resort after even defeating Chrome.
So, the candidates were probably Rebecca’s place and Miguel’s place…
“Uhhhhhhhhh… what… is it?”
Turning my head like an owl screeching and running away, I pondered so much that my head was smoking. Rebecca and Miguel… the sea and a different continent… Can I reach the different continent just by running? But isn’t attacking an unexplored continent teeming with enemies all by myself beyond recklessness? Even if I immersed myself in nonsense up to my neck, I could only think it’s impossible.
What about Rebecca’s place? But can I conveniently prepare a ship and crew? I don’t have much money on hand right now, and if I start from earning money, how many years will it take…
“A ship, money… If only I had a ship that I could move by myself. Ha, a magical ship like that, no matter how much technology you have… huh?”
A star seemed to shine above my head. The scattered points connected into a single line, weaving together into a great guidance that solved all problems.
“…Hey, hey, hey, hey. Am I a genius or what!? I can do it, I can do it! This is perfect, isn’t it!?”
I couldn’t stop grinning at such a brilliant idea. With that momentum, I took out the silver-winged sword, created a rift to the desired world with determination, and then…
“Hahaha! This is incredibly refreshing!”
Here is the 3rd world. Once again, I landed on Rebecca’s pirate ship, slipped out before being noticed, and was secretly rowing out to sea.
The vessel I was riding was a small boat that would be filled with two or three people. However, this boat was a metal boat that stood apart from the wooden boats common in this world, and its blue-gleaming hull raced across the vast sea with flying momentum.
“Whoa, a big wave spotted ahead! But… Break through it!”
[Order accepted. Continuing forward.
At my command, a flat, unhuman-like voice came from the ship. And just as the words dictated, the small boat plunged into the wave… and calmly broke through. The transparent membrane surrounding the hull perfectly blocked the water, and not a single drop of spray reached me.
“Haha! As expected of the top-tier product worth 200 billion Oubra!”
]I’m honored by your praise.]
That’s right, what I was riding was the state-of-the-art magic-powered ship I bought in the 092nd world. Afterward, I jumped to the 092nd world, met Canal as usual, hit it big in Dice Rain, reconciled with John, and then used that money to buy that world’s ship and jumped to the 003rd world.
Hehehe, this is what they call thinking outside the box. Indeed, gathering a ship and crew in this 003rd world would take a considerable amount of time and money. But since I have the [Stranger Box] there’s no reason I have to procure them in this world.
In the 092nd world, I possessed a method to amass a colossal fortune in a single endeavor. The vessels of that world, even the compact ones manageable single-handedly, surpassed the high-performance capabilities of this realm’s colossal ships. Their top speeds exceeded a mere tenfold, remaining steadfast and unsinkable against any formidable waves. Furthermore, these remarkable crafts could momentarily hover in mid-air, seamlessly navigating rocky reefs or even traversing vast stretches of land when required.
Although delving into the depths of the ocean appeared implausible, one had to consider that the demon king of that realm possessed the ability to generate fog, indicating that it likely did not reside underwater. The primary apprehension lay in the fact that magical fuel could only be replenished within the confines of the 092nd world. Nonetheless, I had procured an ample supply, enough to sustain continuous full-throttle operation for three years. Thus, unless an extraordinary circumstance arose, the likelihood of depleting it entirely remained minimal.
But well, that’s not to say there’s no problem at all. It is a minor flaw, but…

“Ah, yes, yes. Got it, got it.”
It seems I can’t disable this noisy advertisement. Even the most cutting-edge technology doesn’t seem to extend across worlds.
“Oh well. Anyway, our target is the Fog Demon King! Let’s see… Full speed ahead, a little to the left!”
[Order understood. Course correction, Magi Jet Engine, 80% output.]
With the [Akashic Compass] in hand, pointing in the direction it indicated, the small boat changed course and began to run. Hold on, Tia, this time for sure…
[The latest information for our customer—]
“I told you I got it! Geez…”
With my noisy ship, I continued to sail the sea.
