Civilization Game

The Country of Knights

“Argh! Why are you here...! ”

Oliver is paralyzed by the shock. Arc, on the other hand, took a gesture of shrugging his shoulders with a plump face.

“What would that be? Mr. Oliver, it's a trap. In fact, this was our land from the beginning. ”

“… What? ”

“There was a collaborator. ”

Arc winks and sends a signal to the back. Oliver came to know him well.

“Lord Annex……! ”

It was Enex, Lord of the Norms of Stormhole. Oliver's lips tremble.

“Oh, why…… you! ”

Annex sighs deeply and opens her mouth.

“Your Grace, do you remember the invasion of the Opectus army during the Alliance War? ”

Annex's voice sank into thin air. It was completely different from when Oliver was first beaten.

“The Stormhole was the first place the Opectus from the south would encounter. You said you wouldn't let your enemies trample you anywhere in this country. And he pledged his support to us on the front line and ordered everyone's struggle. ”

Oliver's expression hardens as he listens to the story.

“Our gnomes fought bravely against the enemy to defend the stronghold. But no matter how hard they gripped their teeth, the reinforcements in the capital didn't come, and the castle was taken. Many gnomes lost their lives. My wife and child were also burned to death in that war. ”

“… Hah, but that's an option……! ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. It must have been a choice to protect your precious Silver Citadel. ”

Annex cuts off his horse and shoots him down.

“After the war, the Gentile God demanded an explanation of the situation. Humans and Dwarves working in the royal household snorted. ”

There was a crisis in the whole country, and Stormhole is no big deal.

I didn't know people lived in that village.

They were dwarves, so you couldn't see them. Hahahaha!

“…… I've been investigating further, but the royal family had no intention of sending reinforcements to Stormhole in the first place. You didn't even review it. What His Majesty told us was that even if he pushed the gnomes to the extremities, he wanted to buy us a day or two. ”

I smiled at Annex.

“All for fucking science. ”

“ ……. ”

Oliver closes his eyes.

“Is science that great? Technology that benefits humanity? You can't even protect your own people. ”

“…… I am the king of a country. Failure to send reinforcements to Stormhole was a judgment to protect more people. ”

“No, Your Majesty. You're only thinking of yourself. ”

Annex opens her eyes ferociously.

“Take this war, for example? Both the Dwarves' Posy and the Humans' Silver Citadel were quickly taken down. The only place left is here in Stormhole. The king who had lost his way came here because he had no choice. If this were the case, the Emperor would have fought with the Emperor to the end, relenting to his past faults. But he said to us, ”

He smiles like a clown and follows Oliver's voice.

“Let the gnomes join us in taking back the Silver Citadel! ”

“…… Phew! ”

Arc grins, his palm clenching his mouth. But I couldn't stop the sound of laughter leaking through my fingers.

“Oh, excuse me. ”

Arc throws a smile at Oliver and looks down at the Annex standing next to him.

“Too bad, Lord Annex. He truly served the false king. ”

“ ……. ”

Arc's tongue moves like a snake.

“I completely agree with the lord. If we were really lucky enough to take back the Silver Citadel, no one would recognize the gnomes after the war. because gnomes don't really help the development of great science. And you will be trapped in a cage called Stormhole again, and when the time comes, you will be sacrificed again as an excuse. This is really cool. ”

After speaking, Arc looks back at Oliver.

“It's your call, isn't it? Mr. Oliver.”

“Neonoum! arc! ”

Heave-ho! Aland's hero Conrad quickly raises his weapon and aims for the arc.

“Die!”

Blah, blah, blah! But the cannonball doesn't fire, and an explosion erupts from the artillery's body. Conrad, who is covered in explosive smoke, falls to his knees in shock.

“You use dangerous weapons. ”

The Blackfoot knight, standing to the right of the arc, shrugs. He was one of Arc's main heroes, Protect.

As Conrad falls to nothing, Dennis walks forward this time. As he activates his bare arm behind his back, an intense green glow rises from the joints.

“Oh, what is this? Kija. It looks amazing.”

As Denise looks back, the arms of all six robots are cut off and flying into the sky. The red-haired boy with the shortsword grins.

“But you're not so tough, are you? ”

“... Hehe! ”

Dennis throws a rough robe at the scientist. The green core directly embedded in the body reacts to the magical power! The engine starts to sound. The boy whistled "Wheel."

“You're a scientist and you're healthier than you look. ”

Dennis screams with his arms spread out, and something like a green beam spills from his core onto the boy. The boy takes a slow slash and swings his sword.

Idiot! His sword stretches like a whip and makes the air difficult. After all the green beams were cut off and disappeared, the boy's body passed over Dennis. Dennis falls to the ground with a deep sword in his chest.

“Phew.”

He stretches his index finger toward Dennis, who's fallen.

“Not yet! Ten years is too soon for you to deal with! ”

‘...... except that bastard, Arc, learns strange things. ’

The guard who saw him sighed deeply.

“Dennis! Khoo! ”

This time, Conrad, who lost his cannon, rushes from side to side into a bare fist. Cawing! The boy's body, guarded by a sword, is pushed back.

“Kieha, you're doing great. ”

“Wooooo!”

Conrad smashes his sheep's fists, and the muscles of his entire body turn gray.

“Functionality isn't that great. ”

The boy mutters. Conrad throws his fist like a waterfall, one step at a time. The boy was avoiding cooking like a Mudfish.

“Oops!”

The back foot was twisted and the centre of the boy was twisted for a moment. Conrad strikes a fist that concentrates all of his magical power on the opposing team's face without missing this gap.

Boom!

However, his fist is blocked like a wall in the air.

“I told you not to be careless. ”

This time, I saw the protections stretching out again. Conrad's expression distorts.

“Oops.”

Beans on a rock! Beans! The boy who took a picture of the buttocks scratched his head. Conrad's body remains steady with his fist extended.

“You killed him by surprise. ”

Grrr.

Conrad's body is painted with countless lines. Soon, half of his torso splits into rectangular blocks and falls off the ledge. I didn't even know if I was swinging my sword.

“Nose, Conrad! Dennis!”

Oliver was smoky.

“Here you go, Mr. Oliver. Now that the corners of your faith are gone, why don't you just surrender? ”

Arc walks up to Oliver and says,

“... Ooh, don't be ridiculous! Aargh!”

Oliver draws his back-dancing sword and lunges at Arc. The master is at risk of being attacked, but the knights smile and show no movement.

“You don't even know the fountain. ”

Glug glug! A rocky flame rises from the palm of the arc's hand and shoots it out. Oliver sprints forward, covering his face with his arms without even avoiding him. However, the flame disappeared like a scarecrow before striking Oliver's body.

“…… Ugh. ”

Oliver is so surprised that he just sits flat on the floor.

“The greatest mystery of the Temple of God. ”

A trembling arc crouches in front of Oliver. Oliver's soldiers are already in the Knights' hands.

“How did a man like Oliver get elected contractor to the gods? ”

“... Ugh! ”

Arc sees Oliver's trousers getting wet, and he spills a smile.

“Cowardly and greedy. Zero confidence, zero understanding of tactics. You're lucky to have made it this far with the High Septon. Sometimes they say they're charismatic as kings, but, well, that kind of change can come when you put a local boy on the throne. It seems to me that I've barely grown.... ”

Arc gestures at his men.

“Hold on.”

The knights approach and grab Oliver's arm. Oliver shakes his body and resists violently, arc smiles and says a few words.

“We're going into Silver Citadel now. Don't you want to see your girlfriend? ”

Oliver's body stops when he hears that. Arc watches as he is being dragged away, turning his gaze to Lord Annex.

“Thank you for taking our side. Thanks to you, I was able to conquer without much effort. ”

“My condolences.”

Annex bows deeply.

“I feel like I've taken my revenge, too. ”

“I see.”

As Arc flicks his fingers, the knights roar around the Annex and the Ghosts.

“W-what are you doing...! ”

“My lord, there is one thing I have in mind. ”

He laughs and says.

“Anyone who experiences betrayal once will betray twice. ”

“…… wait! It's a different story...! ”

Shhhhh! The knights' swords wield their swords and the one-sided slaughter begins.

“I hate traitors. ”

Arc howls and opens the Commander's spear.

Goodbye, Lord Annex (pages 188-189). He was a good lord.
