Civilization Game

“Arc the Round, stand down! ”

“Stand down!”

“End tyranny and vain death! ”

“Finish it!”

The colonists are gathering in front of the palace to express their protest. It was not just weapons. In this age, it was practically treason.

Arc sits in front of a window, gazing up at the rise of the colonists. Even in the palace, you hear a loud shout.

“... things have gotten worse. ”

The guard who drank tea together in the Oval Office got lucky.

“Lord Polentia has postponed the war and is amplifying the turmoil and complaints of the colonists. With the royal family and the people divided, it's difficult to elicit the morale to wage war. We need to work something out, arc. ”

Arc glances out the window and grinds his teeth.

“Look, look. I knew it. ”

“ ……?

Arc yells at the table with his fist.

“Those traitors. No matter how crazy you try, what do you do? I knew this world was gonna be different, and I always get my ass handed to me like this! I'm sick of this roller! ”

“… arc! How long are you planning on beating your destiny? ”

The protection I was listening to increased my speech without holding back my anger.

“Are you sure you don't know why this is happening? It's all because of what you did! ”

The arc looks at the shield with a cold face.

“... Guardian, I was just trying to resist fate. Betrayed to keep everything from falling apart! Then why is it that the more you resist, the more traitors you become? Why does it always end like this? ”

I felt frustrated when I saw my friend who couldn't get out of his hair due to hatred, like he had the plague.

His actions must be to prevent traitors or to find them beforehand, such as taming pretenders to suit their tastes, killing all unaccounted for territories, and killing fiancées. However, such actions make people rebel and turn their backs on the arc. The vicious cycle repeats itself.

Why doesn't he know that the king's virtue is trust, not doubt?

I've already explained it to Arc a few times, but it didn't work. He was merely making a gesture. Protect realized that anything more than this was meaningless.

“… arc, do you remember what this is? ”

The guard took an empty sword and placed it on the table. It was filled with old, glossy hands, not his usual writing.

“What? This. ”

Arc looks at the sword and smiles in vain.

“... Have you forgotten? Arch. You saved my life a long time ago. You helped me sneak into the forest and almost get caught by the Goblins. And on our way back, we swore an eternal friendship on this sword. ”

“I guess so.”

Arc turns his head out of the window, waving his hand as if annoying.

“How do I catch them all and kill them...?" ”

“Arc.”

“Why do you keep calling me? Annoying.”

“... Do you still think betrayal is your destiny? ”

“Of course! His fucking destiny! ”

The arc screams as if awaiting. The guard smiles.

“I agree."

Phew.

A sword rises from the chest of the arc.

“ ……? ”

The twinkling arc's eyes falter, unable to face reality. When he noticed something boiling under his neck, he was pouring it out of his mouth without even knowing it. I couldn't pick it up by hand.

The blood flows from the stream, riding on the protective arm.

“Looks like I'm the last one who'll betray you. Arc.”

Arc's pupils shake dangerously.

“… Protector……. Did you... betray me? A real betrayal? Did you really... betray me? Oh, I'm kidding... You can't be... ”

Arc bows his head.

”Protect!"

The shimmering face of the arc is distorted like a demon. Glug! As soon as the flame rises in his right hand, protection pulls out another sword and cuts off his arm.

“Ugh, ahhhh! Arm! ”

Arc sits limp in front of his arm, bleeding.

“Farewell, arc. No... ”

The protective sword is raised high.

“A gangster in my friend's scarf. ”

“Ah, ah, no! ”

Squeak! The sword swings, and the arc's head falls to the ground.

And the loud screams stopped.

“ ……. ”

Strengthened protection stumbles across the wall. Arc's head is in his eyes. You see it often every time you go into battle, but that's the head of a friend of yours who's been with you his whole life.... and killed it with his own hands.

“… big! ”

You feel nauseous. The protections are unbearable, and they unload what's inside.

‘I'm pathetic, too. ’

A moment later, he brushes his mouth with his sleeve and looks toward the door.

“It's over now. Come in.”

Yuck. The door to the Oval Office opens, and Aaron Diets and the Knights of the Crown enter. Everyone looks stunned to see Arc's corpse disappear.

“…… Well, you really cut it. ”

“… Lord Protect. Are you okay?"

Aaron Dyte approaches and examines the condition of the shield. He nods.

“All this is my doing. From now on, I will take over everything Arc has been carrying. ”

As they were talking, suddenly there was a loud shout outside. Soon after pushing the knights, a one-armed Percival swoops into the administration room. As he bursts into tears, he sits down in front of the arc with only his neck left.

“Ahh. Ah. Aaaah! Aaaah! ”

A protective detail approaches the side of the roaring Percival.

“... I'm sorry, but I had no choice. If time had gone on like this, there would be no future for Casar. ”

Percival looks up at him, his eyes wide open.

“You killed him! You!”

“Yes."

“Your Majesty! I can't make any decisions now that you're dead! ”

“How long will you live as someone else's dog? You're free now. At your discretion.... ”

“My judgment is rubbish! ”

Percival draws his sword with one arm and swings it.

“I'm sorry.”

A fierce wind blows through the shield as it extends its arms. Percival rushes back, unable to pierce the wind pressure. The arc's objects fly through the room, crashing into the walls and floors.

“I'll kill them all! ”

An enormous surge of power has focused on the ferocious Percival sword. But then a moment later, the tip of the sword flew from the side and slit the boy's throat.

“Sorry, Percival. ”

Aaron Dyte, who has just turned his arm into a sword, stands beside you.

“And goodbye. ”

“... Cough! ”

Percival spills blood and collapses.

He falls down, groaning in agony, and Aaron Dyt sends his arms back clean.

It was the futile end of the boy who was called the wood of the future to support Casar.

“... he was a fine young man who would never do it again. That's too bad.”

“… Yes. ”

The two of them left the office unannounced.

- Casar's "Protect" defeated Casar's player "Arc the Round."

- Rebel Event! Since the citizens of the same country have killed you, the "Protection" will transfer the Destruction Bonus.

There's chaos in Empire.

The Mad King Arc was strangled in the hands of the Master Knight Guard. The sovereigns who despised the king didn't know what to do with their treachery. The word "king's sea" weighed that much.

And the people who were most in opposition to this situation were Empire nobles.

“This can't be happening! ”

“No matter how crazy you think you are, the king of one country...! ”

“Let's go to the palace! ”

The nobles herd the soldiers into Ur Palace.

“I've been waiting. ”

And in front of the castle, Aaron Dyte greeted the nobles with a smile.

“Lord Aaron Dyte! What the hell is going on? ”

“Are you part of the rebellion?" ”

She smiles and replies.

“Lord Protect is waiting if you don't. Follow me.”

“Nonsense! You know what you're doing inside...! ”

“Aigoo, it's an exhibition. Don't you think Master Knight would understand that? You can bring your weapons. You can have your own escort with you. If you don't like Sir Protect's story, you can just stab him in the neck. ”

“ ……. ”

The nobles look at each other and nod. They escort the best knights into the banquet hall of the royal palace. The interior is full of nobles and knights.

After a while, the protections showed up at the river level.

“Thank you all for coming. ”

Grrr! Grrr! As soon as the guard comes inside, you hear the knights draw their swords. A nobleman shouted.

“Lord Protect! Is it true you assaulted His Majesty? ”

“You're out of your mind! If you're a knight, drop your weapons and pay for what you've done! ”

The nobles listened to the outrageous protests and the protections sat on chairs laid out by the strong.

“Arc was the king responsible for the country, and his judgment was lost. If I hadn't done it, someone would have. Aren't you all glad you got rid of Arc on the one hand? ”

“... Po, watch your language! ”

“… no matter how tyrannical he was, he was the king of all nations! This sin can never be washed away! ”

The guard smiles bitterly.

“I took the life of my childhood friend before I was king. Only for this country. Do you think my intentions are simple? ”

“…… Lord Protect! This is not a matter of pride! ”

“You know him well. I did it for a reason, of course. ”

A new person walks over the edge. The nobles who saw him murmured.

“Well, that's him! ”

“…… Aren't you the Praetor? I would have been in jail! ”

“It's been a long time. ”

The Praetor bows his head with a kind smile. As if it had been a hard time, I was left with nothing but bones.

“Praetor, I heard you committed treason! Then why are you here...! ”

“Because he didn't commit treason. ”

Protect answered instead.

“The guilt of treason was unilateral to Arc, and there was no evidence that the Praetor was a traitor. You all know that, right? ”

Nobles were neither positive nor negative.

“Arc had other reasons for imprisoning him, actually. ”

“…… let me tell you something. ”

The Praetor walked out and stood tall in front of the nobles and knights. And then I took off the robe that wrapped around it. A thin, blue light appeared on my bare body with all the ribs, and then a tattoo appeared on my body.

“The shrine is the Catholic Church of Cashar. ”

“ ……! ”

“... The High Septon? ”

As the nobles grumble among themselves, the tattoo on the Praetor's body disappears.

“Every priest has a tattoo of light as proof that he received the revelation. The priests of Carfriy and Glacieon we captured must have the same thing. ”

“Liar! If you really are the High Septon, the king has no reason to keep you...!" ”

“Wouldn't there be? ”

The Praetor smiled and asked again. The nobles paused for a moment. Surprise and awe spread over their faces.

“Yes, that's what you're thinking about. ”

The Praetor turns and walks away from the nobles.

“The first one to be king of Casar must have been the 'Arc the Round.’ But there were others who were destined to be" emperors "by the choice of the gods. He is……. ”

The Praetor kneels on one knee and speaks.

“Sir Protect here. ”

“ ……! ”

“Excuse me?”

“I declare myself as one of the Twenty-Two Faithful in Eden. Lord Protect is the true king of Casar, chosen by the gods! ”

Uhhhhh

-------

The trivial world. If Arc thinks he's out of control, he'll die.

Let's use our helmets to protect our reading whales/backs.

so4542003/Quick close... rediscovery of load

- Nilatothep. - Here's a valuable lesson for us to care about NPCs.

Altenia/Comon Oil!

Sugarcane 158/Bam bam bam! Recreational power is increasing! I can't conceive of an episode because my head is blocked!

Park Sung Bin/In other words, it is' Commander Chang '. It can be used by the eunuchs. And the Praetor used the commander's spear without Arc's permission to alert him.

i'll give you a spadel/19 on the house! (Clears throat) I mean, readers may curse the scene, but... and the truth is, Arc didn't just pick the girl because I like her.), but because of the concept of Akharem.

Joyner/You got it right! In fact, I was wondering if you could write that statement, but I just got rid of the messy sentence, and I'm glad someone noticed!

The welfare nation/… will continue to do the hard work of the management team.

@ Haledame/T_T Unfortunately, there is no resurrection function.

@ Achenite/ahhhh... You're probably in a tough spot, but you're military.

@ Kulera/In fact, Abyss is now a powerful exorcism. I don't know if it'll come out later, but in the beginning there was the Abbis Parliament attended by the clans, and in the latter the scale will grow the way the lords attend. Mmm-hmm. And a critically situational analyst of Lord's progress. I'll consider it.

@... (-1).../Secret!

@ Choi Kashu/Yep, but he can't handle the Commander's Spear, so his player skills are sealed. But the state-owned abilities still apply.
