Golden Experience

Episode 294: Sister Heart and Autumn Sky

"Who is a particular someone?

If you think about it, one is this fleeing royal family.

Normally, the King's capital is devastated, so it is not strange to be rumored so.

But as long as the royal family flees, even if it takes the form of a transfer of capital functions, the kingdom of Hills can survive with another place as the king's capital.

That said, once rumors of doom have spread as a fact, reconstruction will not be easy. Even if the survival of the royal family came out of nowhere after the demise became widely known to the people, I don't think that would be acceptable. As I said earlier, it's a matter of objectivity. Except systematically.

If so, it would be the royal family that would be most unbearable if this rumor were spread.

If you intend to live as a mere civilian for the rest of your life, that's fine, but if not, you will definitely stop the rumors.

However, this is when Lord Hugelcup was an ordinary player who was not involved in the royal killing. The lord only knew of the kingdom's demise, and the royal family would not be formed until he thought it was alive at this point.

However, even in this case, it is unlikely that the royal family is fishing for a very good reason because of the negative information of state extinction.

This is also Janken, but given the outbreak of the Oral Revolution that triggered the killing of the Hills royal family after this, it is likely that he intended to kill the royal family.

Nevertheless, it is not calm for ordinary players to suddenly try to kill the royalty of their neighbors. It is natural to assume that someone has asked you, but who is that person?

If you believe the coup statement, it will be King Oral, but as I said earlier, it is hard to imagine that the princess will rely on the royal killer of the day for consultations.

Even if the lord is silent and deceives the princess, it is of little benefit to the lord.

Rather than being a princess with less power in the royal family, it would be much wiser to snitch on the current regime's king.

However, if, for example, the coup occurred as a result of the princess's attempted rebellion against the princess, who was, in fact, the killer of the Hills royal family.

In this case, however, the princess must have known the destruction of King Hills' capital and the destruction of the Hills kingdom before Lord Hugelcup.

But it's just inconceivable that the princess is a player. If the life and death of royalty and the survival of the state were to be systematically linked, then royalty should be a special presence among NPCs. I don't think a player can take his place.

And even if the princess learns of the demise of the kingdom, it is temporarily impossible to explain the history to Lord Hugel Cup shortly after that and give instructions for the spreading of rumors.

To be honest, I have to say that this is unlikely.

By denying this possibility, you deny the possibility that the lord was just a player, and you can say that the lord is the culprit of the Hills royal murder.

There is another possibility that the lord was trying to use rumors to make contact.

I wonder if it would be a seventh calamity. "

It appears that the professor conducted such a detailed interview. As in the case of Felicita and Reflex earlier, I think that we have gathered the situation of the residents NPC at that time and the resident-specific discomfort that they may have felt, and put together these vast amounts of information to make these hypotheses.

I've only made that precise map. Such a hassle cannot be imitated by Lyla.

"This is a hypothesis based on the assumption that disaster cared about the whereabouts of the royalty.

Then, how can we say that disaster was worrying about the royal family's whereabouts? This is attributed to the situation when she was defeated.

The disaster defeated the players in the Wang capital, but the cause is a special item called Artifact. Without this, you probably wouldn't have lost to the players. Such testimony has been obtained from the players of the day, and it is clear from the fact that the disaster that reappeared shortly afterwards is easily plunging the Wang Capital.

Yeah, I can tell you that the re-emergence of the calamity you were supposed to have defeated at this time also reinforces the possibility that calamity is a player. It would have been there somewhere. Home, probably lispawn around Reeve Great Forest, came to Wang Capital for revenge or something.

And the other fact that I can tell from this is that the King's capital didn't have artifacts when the disaster struck for the second time.

I would have used it if I had.

I don't know how powerful a monster can be when it entrusts a valuable item that only exists in one country to a player who may not be familiar with it. Definitely had more than one.

So where did it go?

If the royal family were seeking asylum, the royal family would normally have taken it away.

The calamity must have killed the inhabitants of the entire Wang capital, then they would have realized that there was no royalty in it, and no artifacts.

In other words, there are survivors who fled with items that could kill themselves.

This alone is enough reason for disaster to pursue the royal family.

At this point, however, the connection between the demise of the state and the life and death of the royal family should not have been known. This is the same whether the disaster is a player or an NPC, but at this time the Lord of the Hugel Cup thought the disaster was an NPC, so let's just say it was an NPC for the first time.

What would she think if a rumor came to her that the kingdom had been destroyed by an NPC disaster?

As I mentioned earlier, if the royal family were alive, it would be the surviving royalty who would react first to this rumor.

In fact, the royal family has already been destroyed at this point in time, but I don't know if it's a disaster that we missed. "

I can feel the neighbor Rae mumbling.

Until recently, I seem to have been pulling in a good mood, but I'm not busy.

It is true that you let the royalty escape, and it is not this professor's fault, so it is wrong of you to be angry here.

Looking at Rare, Lyla skipped herself and rubbed the wrinkles between her eyebrows.

"The scourge of wanting to follow the royal's whereabouts should keep an eye on where this rumor comes from, which the royal family will be headed.

The time to reach the rumors will vary depending on the place, but what disaster is actually looking for is more an artifact than a royal one. Then, even if the royal family had arrived at the source of the rumor earlier, we can get a big clue by looking up the person who was spreading the rumor at the place.

At least it's more rational than looking for it in the dark clouds.

Didn't the lord think so and spread rumors?

If this rumor were to catch me, I'd have nothing but to chase the royal family beyond the rumours that the troubled royal family has already perished.

Paradoxically, if the lord's reason for spreading the rumors was as I just said, the lord would be a player and at the same time a Hills royal murderer.

Because the fact that disaster would be wary of artifacts is unknown in NPCs that can't see SNS, and the fact that royalty's whereabouts are synonymous with the whereabouts of artifacts is information that only knows about the catastrophe that got away with royalty and artifacts and who actually murdered royalty.

Then why did the lord try to contact the NPC disaster?

This is also a theory of outcome, or it can be said because we think backwards from what has already happened, but then the lord suddenly launched a coup and took over the Oral Kingdom.

Yeah, we know the princess won't be the mastermind.

If a princess had anyone who breathed a lie into her, that couldn't be anything but Lord Hugel Cup, and if that's how you instigated the coup, then the mastermind is the lord.

Only as a result, the coup succeeded and the lord fulfilled his wish.

However, it is common sense that it is impossible to suppress the Knights of the King's Capital with the power of the Hugel Cup.

There are too many differences in combat power, and so are knights.

According to my research, the city of the Hugel Cup has been under the direct control of the country without a lord for a long time. The descendants of the fallen aristocrats who did something there suddenly appeared and were sealed in this Hugel Cup. Apparently, that's the situation.

Then it will be said that the Knights were founded afterwards, and I have to say that what is the matter if compared to the Kingsguard Knights held by the Oral King? No matter how much you want to take power, you won't be able to do that.

I really need something that can narrow this difference in power.

Very recently, however, there were beings who appeared unintentionally and electrically pruned the nation itself by force.

Yes, the seventh calamity.

Lord Hugelcup was fascinated by his power, and he thought of making contact with the disaster.

And it played its part, succeeding in joining hands with disaster, and that aural coup ended successfully.

However, it is not a matter of refreshment, but it is undeniable that it is too hasty.

He is the lord who has done so much. Naturally, we could have played the coup more naturally. Why didn't that happen?

Since the lord was trying to use rumors, it is not difficult to imagine that he was going to have a more preparatory period. Even if disaster heard rumors, we wouldn't be able to hear them directly from those NPCs, and it would have taken longer.

But there was some miscalculation here.

It was written on the SNS that the Hugel Cup knights were spreading rumors.

The lord used rumors because he thought disaster was NPC, but in fact, disaster was a player.

The calamity of seeing this writing made me suspicious of Huguel Cup lords far earlier than rumors had arrived, and I made contact with them without waiting a day.

So for some reason, the emperor who was willing to cooperate with the disaster stepped into the coup d 'état. "

Really great insight.

The part about enthusiasm in particular is Dom Pisha.

It is true that the coup d 'état was advanced by Norinori as it ascended without a pattern.

However, given the success rate, it is better for a local lord to think about coups d 'état. Even if you were communicating with a princess, it would not be easy to bridge the absolute difference in military power.

Besides, there are two princes above the princess, and the princess is not even a spare heir. It is not worth the effort to maintain the state and balance it. No value to the royal family is the same as no power base.

That coup was truly heroic and that is why it was not questioned by the vast majority of players, but I can say that that is an event that even players would not be convinced of without the assumption of the planting of the operation.

"Well, you know already.

Earlier, I said that the development of Felicita could not be achieved without someone who could manipulate the upper echelons of the state into government.

At the time of Felicita's development, the Oral Revolution had already been completed. In the new regime, if the government has a good face and can move freely to some extent, not many people fall under it.

Princess or lord here.

Given that the coup mastermind was a lord, I can tell you that it could not have been any other than a lord who was pulling the thread of Felicita development. Even if the princess had all that talent, there's no way the lord, the mastermind, would shut up and overlook such reckless investments. "
