00843 The First Step Toward Return, Eight.
The brother's words accurately stated that he wished for the existence of "user." We have to tell them that we know what they want and how to do it.
Let's have another drink here. My brother showed me in action, not just words. Hamill said he could come to Clan House right now if he had the right preparation. The Hamill Clan's official announcement ended in a great cheer.
So, after piercing an excited crowd and barely returning to the castle.
“So.”
Sitting on the chair in the Oval Office, I decided to ask what I wanted to know.
“Isn't it about time you told me your plan was cool? I've been keeping up with you. ”
The older brother smiled, burying himself on the couch. I smiled once, slowly shaking my head.
“This is not a plan. Should I just... call it some kind of show? Anyway, only part of it. ”
He said so, and began to rummage his hands in his arms. He called himself "The Show." He said he was only part of it. I stared at my brother.
I once felt it in the Steel Mountains, but it is said that my brother's advantages are slow. If Han Soyoung is a style that quickly proceeds with exaggerated judgments and bold actions, he is characterized by carefully arranging the plates in advance, picking them up one by one and going slowly. I mean, I'm just getting started.
“First things first. ”
A moment later, my brother placed two thick envelopes on his desk. A slight peek opens, and you see a pile of old records.
“There were three libraries in the secret library at the time, right? ”
“Yes.”
“It's from the central library you told me to leave behind. I swear I've never read the records, and I took them all out, mixed them together, and then they were three-dimensional. It fits exactly.”
“I don't care if you have what you want. ”
Two envelopes were guarded with a cortical smile. Hamill would have already taken his share, and the one we have left would be Istanbul low.
“And…. Next is this.”
He noticed for a moment and placed an extra large envelope on top of it. Even if you pretend that the thump is ringing, it looks twice as thick as the envelope just now.
“What is this? ”
“I brought a whole library. ”
“I think so. Why are you giving this to me? ”
“This is for you to share. ”
He said in a voice that was clear. It's hard to share alone, so I wouldn't expect you to join me. As I told him to keep talking, he clutched his chin with his clasped hands.
“Do you like twenty heads? ”
“I hate it so much. ”
“Haha, but just tell me this. Starting tomorrow, our seaweed will be very busy. I'm guessing he's the one who came to get the records? ”
“Of course.”
“Once you have them, tie them up in a large group of users. So what if we split this group up into groups? ”
“Unit? In terms of units, large clans, medium-sized clans, small clans, caravans, individuals.... This much?”
“Great. So here's a question. Do you really think a small clan or lower is capable of getting a record, given that it's more than a medieval clan? ”
“ ……. ”
At that moment, I thought of the bear. There was a bone in his question just now. In fact, it was the only part of the presentation that I did not understand.
He said, 'I will not discriminate, but I will divide equally.’ I was greatly cheered by the slogan. It is certainly good to look at, but if you think about it, you are taking a considerable loss. For example, can even our mercenaries afford an expedition like the Grave of the Barbarians and an expedition under a small clan?
“Hm. I'm sure it can be difficult.... ”
“Yes, of course, I know the value of every single one of these records. So now our clan is still working hard, and it's made up of things that seem easy to do with close proximity. Anyway, I'm going to stop throwing it away. ”
“A handwriting. It's hard.... What, you touched her? ”
“Things to share. ”
Surprised to ask, my brother said yes. Suddenly, my head became complicated. If I'd targeted more than just a medium-sized clan, I'd at least understand why. But putting together records that look as close and as easy as possible...
“Bro?”
“Yes. I intend to divide mainly among the smaller clans, not beyond the medium-sized clans. ”
Dammit. I was a little preoccupied, but my brother seems to be planning things more complicated than I imagined. Let's settle this quietly.
“Why did you do that? ”
“Think about it. It's not unlimited records. And if you divide all this stuff up, eventually you have to take all the power you can see as a vested interest. I don't know, but it's not gonna sound good. It's like sharing and swearing. ”
“Then don't say it like that in the first place. And even if you do, what about the rebellion over the Medieval Clan? ”
“It's your job to soothe it. ”
At the same time, my brother placed his hand on the thick envelope that he had taken out earlier, saying as if he had waited.
“Of course, I'm not going to say no. He speaks moderately of the mercenary clan. ”
“Is that why you gave it to me? You want me to come and give it to you? ”
“You can either do that, or you can find your own way. ”
“Brother, I'm sorry, I don't understand. Why are you making this so difficult? Just hand it out and it's over. ”
He didn't say anything for a moment. You keep silent and nod boldly.
“Yeah. I don't think about it. I just spray it all the time. By the way, I'm not this complicated because I like it. ”
“I didn't mean it like that... ”
“Soo-hyun, I'm going to let you in as much as I can while doing this. ”
“ ……? ”
I don't know what that means. I tilted my head.
“This is what the Mercenary Clan does for you. So thank you... I don't mean this simply and foolishly. Somehow, for whatever reason. He's going to link everything that's going on with the Machinery. ”
The brother who said that slowly turned around. He looks at the direction of the terrace and walks slowly to join the horses.
“I think there must be at least three conditions to be king. The first is force, the second is reason, and the third is compassion. ”
“King?"
A king. What a ridiculous thing to say. However, he was looking more serious than ever.
“Let's just be honest. Of course, there are users who like it, but you have to admit, the way you look at the Mercenary Clan isn't exactly subtle, is it? ”
Yes, the Steel Mountains have eased things a lot, but deep rooted prejudices have continued since the time of the North Continent. Just not out in the open.
“But what if I put your name on it and fully support a group under a small clan? Wouldn't it be quite helpful to change the perception of the mercenary clan? ”
“Okay, fine. Let's say you can. What else is there? ”
“Listen. War on the West Continent, attack on the Steel Mountains, etc..." The Ambassador in the Hall Plane ( ) has been under the leadership of a large clan with participation of at least a medium-sized clan. ”
“But?”
“But it's not. When fighting demons in the future, the power of the group is indispensable. If you're not gonna fight this alone, I suggest you take advantage of this opportunity. ”
“… so. You want me to build a relationship in person with the group? ”
“That's right, because users tend to benefit from it. It may not be possible to dominate due to the nature of the Hall Plane at the moment, but at the very least, I can support you when you need it. ”
“Ha.”
I laughed utterly. It's because I have finally realized what my brother is trying to do. Simply put, I will get a mind of my own, so I told him to make up an excuse.
The following should not deny that the user is following the interests. But this was wrong of my brother.
“Well, you think too easily. ”
“Huh?"
You just need to see the official announcement. Even if you just give it for free, you still get suspicious voices.
Especially for a large clan. They are very sensitive to profit and loss calculations, but on the one hand, they have nothing to lose. I don't know what to do with you just throwing away a few records. Thank you very much. We will be loyal to the machine in the future. Is this how they would react?
No, I wouldn't do that unless I was stupid. Never. I can promise you this.
When I told him what I thought, he laughed. I thought I stabbed a blind spot, but it was an unexpected reaction. Like I knew you'd say that.
“What if there's a way? ”
“What?"
“What if, in the way I said, there was a way to get support for sure? Mercenary Road.”
“Go, suddenly what... ”
Why does the word "mercenary road" sound so strange? He wasn't looking at me anymore. Standing across the entrance, he gazes over the terrace with calm eyes. For some reason, I felt like I wasn't going to make eye contact with me.
“Soo-hyun.”
After staring outside for a while, he suddenly called out to me in a lower voice.
“Now…. You know there are no guardians on the North continent, right? ”
“That's it... ”
Of course I know that. Since the last time Mandara was killed by a vagrant, what's the current continent in North...?
Wait, wait, wait. Why are you telling me this all of a sudden?
“No way... ”
“Yes."
He slowly squeezed his head.
“You will be the protector of the North. ”
I said something so shocking, so bold.
Suddenly, my vision was pinged. I put it on my forehead without knowing it. I tried to understand my brother's words somehow, but I feel numb all the time.
No, it doesn't make much sense when you think about it calmly. Currently only the head of the Central Administrative Organization can tell.
To the best of my knowledge, Guardians are basically treated. The main flow of Hall Plane is mostly through the hands of the guardians of the whole generation, 'leading the North Continent in the right direction.’ There is a purpose, so it fits the justification. Not many clans have actually seen the benefits.
Yeah, I don't think I can think of a better alternative.
But...
“ ……. ”
I never thought about it.
“I... Be the protector of the North Continent...? ”
“Hmm.”
“Are you serious? ”
“I mean it.”
Suddenly the wind blows. The wind that penetrated into the room swept through every corner. In the scattered hair, a pair of eyes with calm light finally looked back at me.
“Why?”
At that moment, I thought it was stupid, but it was reflexive.
“Why... ”
Suddenly, he sighed deeply.
And then I'm really sorry.
“If you don't do this... ”
I opened my mouth with a face that I felt like I couldn't help but think of this way.
“It would be meaningless to skip the entire Chinese National Era. ”

Oh, this episode is almost over. In fact, I was very worried because I had so much to deal with, but how did I get here? (Tsudam)
Anyway, maybe next time, or the last time, episode "EIGHT," and at the same time, the story of the North is going to end. And from episode "Seven" to episode "Five," the Devil + Southern Continent story is going to take place mainly.
In fact, episodes seven through five worry a lot that the protagonist is extremely infrequent in appearance, but first of all, we've got the strands in the direction of rapid evolution around important events.
I'll finish up Episode 8 first, and then I'll tell you more about Episode 7.
All readers, have a good day.:)
