Dungeon Defense (WN)

00016 If you dig up land, you make a fortune.

Over the past two months, Lapis has been paying attention to the human race. I gathered the herbs the Demon King told me about, using all my connections and wealth.

She was doing the right thing.

With 200 gold entrusted to her by the Demon King, 1000 gold borrowed from him at the Chamber, 300 gold last personally invested by Laffith, and 1500 gold in total, she contracted with the merchants of the human race. The small council contracted with the city's guild of pharmacists again. The Pharmacist's Guild has contracted with herbalists in each village.

As such, Lapis indirectly hired four hundred herbalists. Three contracts were made in just one full night.

A month later, 30,000 roots of herbs were in her water.

Both the Small Business Council, the Pharmacist Guild and the Herbalist were happy with the quest. He laughed at some stupid rich guy for wasting his money. For them, the black herb was a useless weed. I dug up the weeds and got paid for them, so I couldn't make more money than this.

Laffith has now silently surveilled one of the human islands. Sicily, the largest island in the White Sea. The Demon King prophesied to her that a plague was spreading here.

“Lady, how can you be in such a filthy place...? ”

“It's okay. It's what I like to do. ”

The congressman who works in the civic bath bowed his head as if to beg.

There were several congressmen on the thermal deck. He was one of them.

He knew Lapis as a nobleman's maiden. The young lady came to the hot springs to serve once every four days, saying that she would take care of the patient.

‘There are girls like this sometimes. ’

The congressman smiles gladly as he guides Laffith inside the thermal ceiling. Sometimes the nobleman healed the wounds in his heart by kicking the man brutally with the end of excessive love, or by caring for the sick.

“How are you? ”

“Still. Screaming that it still hurts. If I had all the strength in the world to shout, I would have jumped by now! ”

As the teacher despised the student, the congressman despised the patient in some way.

Laffith reacted appropriately.

“I see. Do you have any new patients? ”

“Yes, there was a man who was just brought in yesterday. I heard that my armpits and groin hurt a lot. I have a headache, I have a joint, I have a muscle tear, I'm going to die first. It was very feverish. Maybe it's the summer flu. ”

Laffith stops walking. She asks with a clumsy tone.

“I'd like to meet him first. ”

The senator had no reason to hesitate.

Two people passed through the hot ceiling corridor and entered a room. The patient who was staying there screamed as soon as the visit opened.

“Oh my! I'm dying! People in the neighborhood! I'm gonna die because of a doctor! ”

“Naked underneath. ”

The congressman grumbled and approached the bed.

“Did a good-looking boy yell at you to leave town for a cold? Die, you son of a bitch. ”

He said, "Oh my God! I'm a doctor now. I don't want to live here! Yeah, we're gonna die. I'll die quickly and go to hell and say," Let the doctor die, too, Satan. "I'm begging you. ”

“That son of a bitch ruined my life, you idiot. I wish I could punch him in the cheek. That's great. ”

The senator looks back at Lapis and smiles shyly.

“I'm sorry, miss. This is my childhood friend, and he's so stubborn...... Just think of him as a prize you haven't learned. ”

“Oh my God, it's almost time for Congressman Sandy to treat me like a prize! Huh? Who knew the proud Navy Helmsman of the Kingdom of Sardinia would be so damaged. Hey, you idiot, even when you were seven years old, even though you peed in the Sarakusa Junction... ”

“Wack! Waaak! Crazy bastard! There's nothing I can't say in front of the spirits! ”

The congressman wrongfully closed the patient's mouth. The patient rebelled with an increasingly loud voice. Lapis sighed deeply and sat beside the bed helping the congressman with his medical care.

There was nothing great about it. It was to talk about how I was today, how I was feeling, and how the bath was good. The congressman pulled a little blood out of the patient's forearm because he said the joint was particularly painful.

“I like the hot springs. ”

The patient said in a tired voice.

“There are a lot of beautiful women, and beer is good.... ”

“This mongrel in the world told me not to drink. Again. ”

“What can I do? It's a corpse unless the Navy drinks. Oh, I knew it in the bath, but I had a spot on the inside of my forearm. Look here."

The patient opens his arms and arms. There was a black spot with only a thumb.

“ ……! ”

Lapis swallows his breath.

The congressman and patient had a relaxed conversation.

“Really. Huh, what's going on here? ”

“I don't think it's a big deal, but I think I'm going to be sick. I'm nervous.”

“You're losing too much stamina. It's been a full day since I went to war. Your body deserves a strike. It's a cold. Get some rest and get better. ”

“Really? A real cold. It's weird. I haven't had a horn once or twice, and it didn't hurt like this... ”

“It's because you're old, old man. ”

“What are you, a punk? ”

Pain spreads around the joints. Severe fever. Symptoms of discoloration in the body area.

Lapis rises from his seat in contemplation of the Demon King's words.

“Excuse me. I just had something to do. I have to go.”

“Oh, really? I understand.”

“The escort is fine. ”

And Lapis stopped the senator from getting up. She gave two silver coins to the senator. Then I took a quick step out of the thermal ceiling. The doctor who remained in the room looked at the patient.

“You're the reason the lady left! ”

“Huh? Why is that on me again? ”

“Your mouth is so low that the nobles can't stand it. Ugh, this is why we can't have soldiers like this. All I know is that other people's thoughts aren't as good as crow claws. ”

The two of them started bickering again.

Meanwhile, Laffith's mind as he walked through the thermal ceiling corridor was completely confused. The maids meet her and greet her politely, thinking she is also a nobleman. But Lapis didn't have the time to respond.

‘It was true. The Demon King was right. ’

I had to find the Demon King right away. Next, we had to file a report on the council. It was an emergency!

Two days later, the patient was completely blacked out.

A week later, the doctor suddenly died.

Until then, no one in the city knew the seriousness. However, ten days later, the people who loved the hot ceiling were slaughtered, and everyone knew what was going on as the bodies of the people spread throughout the city in the middle of the night.

The tumblers have erupted.

* * *

The Kunkusa Parliament was not an incompetent group.

If I had been incompetent, I wouldn't have made it to the top of the horse system. The executives of the council thought that even though it was a report by the end staff in the organization, they would take it seriously if they hit the truth.

Officers gathered in the conference room. They were the top executives who held the council for centuries.

“I can't believe Dantalian was a prophet. I'm surprised.”

The vampire said in a heartbeat. Then the other executive protested.

“Nothing is certain yet. I still think he's the Baby Demon King. ”

“Huh, well. I foretold an epidemic I've never seen before. ”

and the elders of the wolves said,

“What more proof do you need? All organizations should be vigilant when cautious and courageous when daring. The first time an employee posted a report, we were typically cautious. That's why there's no evidence. I have proof now. Comrades! Don't cling to your decisions from the past. Obsession……. ”

“The mother of regression, the father of ignorance. ”

The Vampire has spoken.

“The chairman used to love saying, It's been 700 years since he died. The reason seven of us have been able to keep Kunkusa on the summit has been, among other things, friendly to the Demon Kings. ”

The executives silently listen to the story of the vampire.

Nominal executives were equal. But the real leader was a vampire. He kept the council longer than anyone else.

The Vampire expressionlessly speaks.

“We defeated the Demon King's hostile hordes, and in return, the Demon Kings did us unlimited favors. The Demon King and Kunkusa are more than bloodlines. Dantalian is also the 71st Demon King. If he has the power of prophecy, Kunkuska must actively help him. ”

“I can't admit it! ”

An old Goblin shouts, queek, queek, from across the street. He squeezes his wrinkles on his forehead.

“Prophecy? You're old, and you're finally out of your skull. No one else believes in irrational phenomena like the prophecy, and the best executives in Kunkusa believe it! My costumes are so naive that only six comrades have survived so far to die quickly. If a thief steals an egg, take the other one quickly, you thief! I can't just walk away embarrassed! ”

“Hey, dwarf braggart. ”

The wolves growl.

“We've already lost three human cities. Three cities were wiped out in the first half of the summer after the Spinning Disease broke out. I've lived hundreds of years, but I've never heard of a disease so contagious. Experts are already predicting that nearly half the continent's race will be wiped out. How can you fake this? ”

“How do I know that? Anyway, it's not a prophecy. Absolutely not. Cancer. ”

The old Goblin turns his head in disgust.

The wolves snore.

“You only know how to argue. You have no grounds. If that's the reason you're talking about, that's a great reason. I'd rather be unreasonable. I trust you won't talk that way when you're dealing with King Pymon. ”

“Oh, why the sudden mention of King Pymon? Anyway, it's not a prophecy! ”

The vampire slowly raises his right hand.

The meeting chairman was silent in an instant. I can only hear the Goblin sigh.

The Vampire told the Goblin.

“Torquel, my old friend. I think you have a point. ”

Then the Goblin frowns like when it was quiet.

“What a vampire, the noble of darkness! It's so different from any wolf with a mouth on its head! Hey, you stupid wolf. If anyone asks you who you are, do not answer him, but say, ’I am the idiot in the whole world.' Don't give our congregation a name! ”

The officers sigh around you.

The wolves, who were the ones who cursed, also shook their tongues without anger. That Goblin was too eloquent for Kunkusa's executives. If he had not been superior, he would have been expelled from the position of the executive.

“Here. Assuming Dantalian has no prophecy. ”

The vampire clamps his fingers and says,

“He prophesied an epidemic would happen. In fact, there was an epidemic. Comrades, if this is not prophecy, can you guess what it is? ”

“Huh? That's it... Huh!? ”

The Goblin's eyes are wide open. The executives were appalled at the importance of the vampire.

The vampire nods.

“There is only one case left. We have no choice but to believe that the Demon Lord Dantalian caused the plague on purpose. ”

“Well, that can't be. ”

“Here's what I think. I wish Dantalian had a prophecy. If not, he has the ability to spontaneously cause the worst epidemic ever. I... I can't imagine how I'd deal with a Demon King like that. ”

The Vampire has vomited. In that case, we cannot stand against the Demon King Dantalian.

The Chief Executive of the Kunkusa Council starts with a handful of Demon Kings. The vampire subverted the Demon King's dungeon because the Demon King Glacial Ballas had no interest in it.

He raised his hands and surrendered.

Gulp!

Someone swallowed a saliva in the conference room.
