Golden Experience

Episode 360: Request for Assassination

Oh, really!? So what do we do? This way.

For Rare's sake, he tried so hard to keep King Portley alive, but was declared worn out.

Of course, I'm pretty sure I had a lot of spares available for times of need, and if one of them bore fruit, I'd say it's a plus for the overall plan.

But there is a little helplessness, or a little loneliness.

I don't know what to do. I don't care when it comes to anything.

I dare leave it safe. The NPC of the former king, who lost both his country and his people, I'm interested in what he's going to do if we leave him alone.

If you're sure about the operation, there should be a formal national operation service for players after this event.

At that time, it is unclear whether the NPC will be able to establish a new state, but if the player can, the NPC will also be able to do so on the system.

Then, even if you lose your country once, you may be able to get up again someday.

In the meantime, the Spirit King has been secured, so you don't have to do your best. If there's anything you want to do with Lyla, you can use it.

<... I see, I'll think about it for a moment. >

If you want to join the last party, hurry. I'm going to King Pare's Capital now.

< Hmm. I don't know what to do. It's really tough to think about something right now and make it to the party in time... "

[... I don't know, no, it's nothing]

Hmm, I felt something terribly nostalgic.

The smell of the tatami mat in my parents' dojo comes back to life unexpectedly.

This is a memory of when Rare dropped juice on Lyla's book.

At that time, my sister was about to say something, and she was moaning without saying it.

Yeah, what? I'm sorry. Were you going to do that?

<... nothing. Bye. Bye.

Chat has expired.

I'm driven by the urge to log out right now and pull the visor off the VR module next door to see my sister's face, but if I do that, the next thing I can cut is my sister's pussy bag.

Though I told Rae, neither the Elf King nor the Spirit King was anything Lila herself wanted.

Speaking of which, it was the Portley-kingdom that started the plan.

By enveloping this young Elf King and training him as the Spirit King, he intended to acquire a flag.

The legacy of the former Spirit King was made difficult, and there were circumstances in which there was resistance to producing the Spirit King from the dwarf.

It took a lot of time and effort to get Eliza to trust Ernest and roll freely, but I can't help it.

If that's not necessary, I'll just handle it that way.

That said, Lyla is certainly interested in seeing what Rae just said about how she thinks and moves. It is similar to wanting to casually observe the destination of a kite after the thread has been cut.

It would be a waste to wipe out all the relationships that have been built up so far, and finally, it would not be bad to use the presence of Eliza to present malice to the King.

"─ ─ Thank you all for staying in this city. Uh, unnamed elf, huh?, if your name is, may I have a separate title? Unnamed Elves."

"Ah, no, I don't mind abandoning it there!

"... My lord, you are a surprisingly interesting person."

"... no, you don't like this, do you?

I summoned some players to the Lords Hall through Liliene, who is waiting for Zorlen.

I used Youth for the call.

She's a player too. It is unclear whether or not you were replacing your friend card, but it is possible to contact them using SNS.

Overall, writing has declined dramatically during this period, but the number of viewers has not. There is nothing to hide, and there is no problem where it is known to many unspecified people.

"I'm sorry, but this is an urgent matter and I will get down to business immediately.

I've been so evil in the past to say such a thing, but I actually have a favor to ask you today. "

I know why these players were smothered with Zorlen.

Originally attached to the Knights of the Hugelcup, they came all the way to Zorlen to help them invade the capital of King Pare, and the fact that the Knights of the Hugelcup remained in Zorlen and the Knights of the Portley went to the ruins does not mean that the players alone went to the capital of King Pare.

I should have done it from the beginning.

After spending days persuading Lord Hugelcup to finally raise their heavy hips, they are no longer conscious except to send the Knights of Hugelcup to King Pairé.

It's a typical muddy swamp where people can't cut themselves.

The thought process is in a state of hardening that you can't even give up if you don't recover any of the costs you have incurred so far.

So if they flicker the invasion of King Paere's capital by the Oral Kingdom, which they most want now, there is no creation to swallow this demand.

"... please..."

"... I wouldn't have had the chance to hear the Lord's request normally."

"Ah, then ─ ─ how about this?"

I was wondering if Mr. Jane Elf's goldfish hun or something, a man elf man raised his voice.

Again, the players still have a lot of elves.

As with the unnamed elf, there are two male elves that are relatively in the front, but the overall one is green.

"We are mercenaries. Therefore, the Lord's request is to be sent out as a request. And instead of that reward, ask the lord for one of our favors...

In other words, it's a deal. "

I told him a troublesome thing.

The man with the green elf looks at Liliene with his Doya face.

Lila certainly intended to promise to send troops to King Pare's capital in return for this request.

We don't have time to talk about Rae anymore, and it's a delicate matter of whether we march now or not, but if you're happy with that, you can do it as much as you want. Anyway, there's nothing more for this country. I don't care what happens.

But when this is a deal, it makes a difference.

Transactions are usually concluded only on an equal footing.

This reciprocity may not necessarily be the case with positions or power relationships, but at least the conditions for placing the transaction on the table must be reciprocal.

As a matter of common sense, mercenaries can only offer conditions that are proportionate, such as using an army of one country to attack another.

If this is just a request, as Lyla said, in return, you could send the Knights to change your mind in the building to the extent that Hugelcup lord's discretion allows.

But when it comes to trading, it doesn't work either.

If you march in exchange for a modest demand, it means how low the Knights of the Hugel Cup are worth.

It has nothing to do with the purpose of Rare or Lyla, and this is never acceptable.

Nevertheless, our demands are ultimately quite heavy.

I was going to lay down a few light requests, narrow down the conditions, and bring them to a situation where they had no choice but to do so as a result, but if they were motivated from the beginning, they didn't have to do such troublesome things.

It is well balanced in that it is heavy.

"─ ─ Is that a deal? Very well.

Let's start by asking you what you want as a reward. What do you want me to do in exchange for my request? "

I know without asking, but if it's a deal, there must be no slight confusion.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

Apparently, this player is going to be on par with Lord Liliene.

Now what are they going to do if Lyla makes a demand first and fails to fulfill it?

But the first thing I said was this country pop.

You will be held responsible for the statement.

"I see. Let's start with the status quo.

As I am sure you know, the Knights of Portley seized and controlled a group of Krall ruins from the Knights of Pairee.

I secretly had the Knights pursued by a detective who contacted me earlier. His Majesty King Portley-Ernest, who leads the Knights, has discovered his purpose. "

Country pops looked at Lyla's words.

"Does that mean that this war - no, the beginning of the war, the real reason has been revealed!?

It seems that the beginning of the war among them was determined by the invasion of the Portley-kingdom. Well, objectively speaking, it can only be considered that way, so it's not impossible.

I don't think it would have been better to persuade the Pairé kingdom to stop Portley-rather than destroy it, but if it was an angry country and a country that wasn't, the latter still had room for negotiation. It would be a reasonable judgment based on that. I don't dislike it. It's not a bad hand. As long as it's accompanied by abilities.

"... yes, that's right. This war, which involves many countries, would be a disaster worthy of being called a war.

The true cause of that war.

His Majesty Ernest intends to reincarnate himself as the Spirit King who once ruled the land, using his sleeping power on the ruins.

And with that power, we are going to rule the continent, and eventually we will jump out of the continent and rule other regions with the power that even the former Spirit King could not accomplish. "

"The world... conquer..."

"I see, that's a good line of words. Yes, His Majesty Ernest's goal is to conquer the world."

The country pops looked at each other again and remained silent for a while.

I can imagine what you're doing, but it's very rude to keep quiet and keep quiet in the middle of a conversation.

I thought I'd say one thing about disgusting under the guise of an unaware wind, but before I could come up with a funny rhetoric, they rebooted.

"─ ─ So, what does the Lord want from us?

"Yes, of course, as an Oral Kingdom, I can't say that. There is a moral problem, but more than that, it is the fact that we concealed our purpose and let our country cooperate. We cannot tolerate such betrayal of trust, and we do not want authoritarian leaders other than ours."

"Non-Oral dictators, are..."

"... yes, that's all I have to say for the Oral Kingdom. However, neither I nor my queen want a dictatorship in the first place. That's why we have to put our country first."

Many citizens will not support such leaders if their national interests are not paramount.

If the head of state is not a dictator, that's why he has to adopt a sui generis policy that puts the national interest first. Especially in an immature form of society like this continent.

Zeziglia was robbed of power by a coup. We cannot lose more trust from the people than that history is apparent and made up of righteousness.

Stopping King Portley from targeting continental domination is a great name for both this righteousness and national interest.

"So, my plea is not to let His Majesty Ernest achieve his purpose."

"... specifically?

I'd like to tell you to think for yourself, but it would be troublesome to distort your request in a strange way and do something you don't need.

"... the assassination of King Ernest."

"Assassination!?

"No way!?

"It's on the boulder....!

They sought the cooperation of the nations of the world to destroy the kingdom of Pare.

I wonder what's going on with the assassination of King Portley now.

"I understand your demands. You want my Knights of the Hugel Cup to attack the capital of King Paere."

"Well, that's...."

"... yes, that's what I meant."

The country pop went on, but the unnamed elf affirmed.

That's a wise decision.

It's a waste of time playing pointless games like a country pop. Anyway, I know exactly what the request is.

By now, they will regret that they should have listened to your request. Even in that case, the results are the same.

"That means I want you to use your military might to defeat King Pairé.

Are you saying that even though you were going to ask us to do that, we're not going to get our hands dirty? "

"I didn't mean to..."

The players looked at each other again and started talking.

"─ Of course, you don't necessarily have to kill King Portley."

Eh?

"Our goal is that the Portley-Kingdom will not use the power of the ruins. If we can destroy the ruins of the south and destroy the ruins of the north, we can say that we can stop him.

If it's easier for you, I don't mind.

However, the Knights of Portleigh are at the ruins of the south, so we need to hit the Knights of Portleigh from the front to destroy them.

And let me tell you, assassinations are unavoidable, according to Her Majesty's judgment. "

Even in the absence of the Knights of Portley, the destruction of ruins is virtually impossible.

Rather than Lyla, the ruins' doors could not even be destroyed by Rare. No matter how many players gather, it won't be possible. Apart from digging the ground and going to the altar, I don't know where the main body of the ruins is, but I can't go where I dug into the dark clouds.

I don't suppose you realize that, but you decided it was a bad idea to confront the Knights in a straight line.

Apparently, the consultation was completed. Answered by an unnamed elf.

"─ ─ I see. King Portley-Ernesto... I will defeat you."

"I thought you said that. As a matter of fact, my Knights are already on their way to King Pairé."

The players' faces were darkened.

I can no longer refuse to accept that the reward has already been paid in advance.

"We already know where Ernest is. For simplicity, here is the map. It should be in this mark position.

Then take this ─ ─ "

I gave you something like a spear that the maid brought from another room.

"... What's this?

"This is a throwing spear” Desperate. "This is a prototype produced by our Hugel Cup weapons development team. It has a performance specific to throwing and when used it will disappear, but its power comes with origami.

If this were to happen, it would be impossible to avoid fatal wounds by striking the King or not. "

This spear was previously produced as a by-product of prototyping equipment for youth.

It was also an experiment to determine whether it was possible to apply magic to mythrills with high affinity for magic beforehand.

The results were successful for now, but the difficulty was that the finished product disappeared when used. Apparently, if you force them to apply Attack Magic, it will become a useless magic item.

Even a spear of this size could only contain low-level magic. If I reduce the amount of mythrill I use, I can't even give it.

The cost performance is too poor. Considering that it is made of total mythrill, it is not very practical.

I haven't even told Rare about the existence of this spear.

There seems to be a lot of things Rare hasn't said to Lyla, and I intend to surprise her one day and keep working on it.

If this is the case, it won't be a shame to lose it, and even if it's a Mythrill spear with a low level of destructive power with attack magic, if it hits quickly, it will suffice to kill even an enhanced High Elf.

If you give it to the player, it may spread through the SNS, but if you keep your mouth shut, it won't spread.

Anyway, it is already well known that there are players under Liliene.

If you write it on SNS poorly, you don't have to think about what will get into our ears.

"─ I wonder if he's gone. Next up, then, are the Portleys' nobles who remain in this city."

The Second Knights, the Marquis of Morizo, and the Third Knights, the Count of Rappalan.

Their direct combat abilities are not as great as those of the Knights, so I am leaving a message with this Zorlen.

If they die, the Second and Third Knights will be wiped out. Normally, the aristocracy who governs the Knights stands in a safe place. King Ernest on his own battlefield is unusual.

That is because it has the purpose of making the power of the ruins his own.

To Ernesto, no, I have nothing more to do with Portley Kingdom.

According to the professor's analysis and reports from him, it will not be long before the MPC flags Portley's demise. The professor was also quite tense about whether he was confident or not in the raid on the first big city, so there are some anxiety factors, but since Bamboo has received similar reports, you can make a decision.

If the King were alive but the state was destroyed, I wanted to see what exactly would happen to the King, but this is about Rare talking to King Wealth.

It doesn't seem to be particularly interesting, and you don't have to see it directly anymore.

"Killing the nobles now will reduce the strength of the ruins too much. Do you want me to restrain you? If we keep him alive, maybe we can use him for something."
