A Monster Hunter Born of Capitalism

Yuck!

“Hunter, I've prepared Titanian refreshments... Uh, what happened? ”

When Mary came to the office with a cart of tea and snacks, she was troubled for a moment, seeing Titania wrapped around the meteor with puffy eyes.

“Oh, Lina's here. Hold on, I'm talking to you. ”

“Oh, right. ”

When Lina comes in, Titania starts whispering to him small to prevent Lina from hearing her voice.

“Yooseong. Shouldn't you tell Lina? She's the fairy that's been helping me so far. ”

“No, keep it a secret from Lina, too. What a scary place this world is. Trust in people. ”

“Yes? No. Yooseong, Lina is a kind and caring fairy. ”

“Titania, think about it. There are three candidates in total. Two of them are incredibly popular, but the other one's a fool who might not be able to do anything right. ”

“Phew... That's a bit harsh, isn't it? ”

“The truth always hurts. Let's get back to business. She's helping you like that. No man in his right mind would ever do that. ”

“Fairy life is a warm world! ”

“I don't know if you think that, but other people might think differently. So don't ever say it. Maybe he's up to something. ”

“I think I'm too delusional.... ”

“If I say no, Lina could expose the truth, right? What if Lina is so good that she can't just lie? So now we're both strangled next to each other. Neck slice, okay? ”

Titania nods earnestly, whether she doesn't want to be beheaded.

“Then act normal. ”

“Got it.”

Meteor and Titania put their mouths together and began to act naturally again.

“Let's start with those cookies. It looks delicious. ”

“Cookies made by the bakers in the palace. ”

“Somehow it looks luxurious. ”

The cookies Lina brought were delicious for the price of the royal baker.

“This is delicious. ”

“I'll talk to the bakers later and bring you some more. ”

“Oh, thank you. ”

Lina was a very sensible fairy. At the same time, his suspicion of Lina grew.

"Why would a guy so quick to notice help Titania? Any weaknesses? No, Titania's not smart enough to spot someone's weakness. ’

It was very suspicious, but it could have been to help Titania in good faith. Why not sometimes. Volunteers, people who are in trouble on the streets for no reason. Lina could have been a fairy of that kind.

‘I need to make a plan with Lina on the other side, except for the manipulation. ’

Yooseong grabbed Coogee and asked Lina a a few questions.

“Rinna. Are fairy elections similar to ours? Election tax, the Election Management Committee, whatever. ”

“Yes, there's election tax, there's election board. Oberon modeled after the election of the human race. So far the fairy system has changed the way the fairy kings designate the next king, and Oberon introduced the first election. Elections are new to the fairy world, but they're becoming incredibly controversial because of the promises and the way they pick kings by themselves. We expect high voting rates. ”

“Hmm. I see. ”

I was fortunate to have an election board. Bribing the Elves of the Management Committee will make things easier.

‘Honestly, there's no answer on the campaign side. ’

The spirit of the fairy community is not Titania, but Nimueh and Vivian.

It wouldn't have made a difference if I had run in the middle of the day. Queek, you'll have to make a few more decimal points.

“Lina, does Titania have a pact? ”

“Yes, here. ”

Lina gave Yooseong a piece of paper with the promise of Titania. Titania's commitment was ordinary. I don't know how the situation of the fairy system works, but when I saw Yooseong, it was a well-respected pact.

“Who wrote this? ”

“I helped. ”

“You wrote it. ”

“ ……. ”

Lina is speechless. As expected, Lina seems to have fulfilled all of these commitments.

“I'm sorry, but I have to change my pledge. ”

“In what way? ”

“Put in a lot of welfare stuff. And I want to emphasize that it's free. ”

“Free from welfare? ”

“If it's election season in my country, I promise. Free welfare, for example, free education, free medical facilities. And I'll give you a lot of money for a lot of things. Don't be ridiculous. Business aid, research aid, labor aid. ”

“Hunter's word is definitely a good word. But those promises are unlikely to come true. It's a tempting proposition, but it's going to take a long time to realize and stabilize it, and it's going to cost a lot of money. The nobles of the fairy system won't stand by and watch. ”

“Of course it will. But you don't have to worry about that. ”

“You don't have to care. What's that supposed to mean? ”

“I'm not asking you to keep promises. ”

“Yes? What do you mean...? ”

At the words of Yooseong, Lina was deeply confused. A commitment is a promise a candidate makes for a voter. And a promise must be kept. The fairies have been living with it for a long time. However, the values ​ ​ were confusing because he said that he didn't need to keep the promise in his mouth.

“That's what happens in my country. Everyone pretends to be roughly upholding their promise in the first election and quietly passes it by. There is a president in my country, not the king. The president had a different appointment than the king, so he didn't have enough time to make it rough, so he couldn't go the other way around, so he didn't keep the agreement that way. ”

“Oh my……. ”

“You said there were nobles in the fairy system. Well, I guess we'll just have to be more like our country. I'm sorry for the violent revolt of the fairy nobles, but I can't enforce it. Khh, I got a picture. ”

“Common sense not to keep promises.... ”

Kugu!

Lina felt the knowledge and common sense that had been accumulated so diligently had been destroyed and denied.

If the head of a country lies like that and doesn't keep his promises, how can a country go back?

“So fucked up.... No, it's full of liars. Does your country go back? ”

“I can't say it's going well, but it's going well. No. Compared to the rest of the world, you're one of the most successful. ”

“I can't. ”

“And it's common for all nations not to keep their promises. I mean, it's not just my country. ”

Lina's appearance was too shocked to embarrass the meteor. Lina staggers her head with her hands, wondering if she's dizzy.

"Lina, when you see her like that, don't you feel sorry for Titania because she's just a good fairy? ’

If a person who has done good in his lifetime has done evil for the first time, he will surely do so.

“Well, I'm going to be a little bit more outdoorsy, so the pact...... doesn't have to be like I said. Just do it properly." Don't overdo it. ”

Yooseong fled the Emerald Palace as if fleeing.

* * *

“It's a little hard to convince a good fairy to do something they shouldn't. ”

I felt a little sorry for Lina, but I had no choice but to make Titania king. Outside, Yooseong headed towards the center of the most crowded fairy system.

Everywhere is in the center of the city. The fairy system is the same. The square in front of the palace is swarming with fairies.

“It's lively and good. ”

There were various fairies in the square. There were fairies from all walks of life, such as young fairies and playful parents, fairies performing street performances while playing instruments, fairies walking around with baskets full of groceries in one hand, and so on. Among them were other candidates, Vivian and Nimueh, who supported their election activities.

‘Obviously the Vivian and Nimuerra fairies are popular. ’

Vivian and Nimueh are supposedly invisible. However, there were quite a lot of fairies, even though the two advocates were just reciting the two fairy promises.

“Gentlemen! Vivian is the fairy that gave birth to King Arthur, the legendary creator of the human race! If Vivian didn't have the Excalibur that King Arthur deserved, would King Arthur be here now? Vivian is an outstanding person with the ability to make an ordinary culprit a powerful knight. If Vivian becomes king, our fairy system will be golden again! ”

A fairy who supports Vivian shouted at the loudspeaker, and many of the fairies gathered in the square shouted. Then a fairy who supported Jigsaw Nimue started speaking first.

“Is it true that Vivian is so brilliant that King Arthur is where he is now? No, Vivian's Excalibur is just a sword. Isn't it amazing what King Arthur has done to maximize the power of that sword? Then what the hell is it? Isn't King Arthur something? ”

“Yes! Yes! ”

“On the other hand, who is our Nimueh? Weren't you Merlin, the sorcerer who took over King Arthur and led the country? Nimueh taught Merlin magic and made him an exceptional wizard. If Nimueh becomes king, we may see the end of the Great Mado! ”

“Waaaah!”

This time, the fairies supporting Nimueh cheered for their departure from the square.

The fairy who supports Vivian and the fairy who supports Nimueh emphasized each other's weaknesses and appealed to people to vote for each other.

He watched the two supporters fight for over half an hour. Sadly, no Titanian name has ever been mentioned in over 30 minutes.

“Tsk, tsk. Poor Titania. They're treating you like you're nothing. ”

I was somewhat anticipating that this would happen, but seeing it with my eyes was somewhat depressing.

“I'd better get ready quickly. ”
