“So... I have to go first, as a Quadruple player, because I'm going to be outside, not in the Imperial Palace?" ”

Myung Hu asked the knight who came to his room with a look on his face to see if he had heard it right. The knight nods and replies.

“Yes, Earl. ”

“Wait a minute.”

Profit

The knight nods and says, "Wait a moment," and closes the door. Then I turned around and looked at the delay.

“What did he say?”

After turning around, the delay was asked.

“He says we have to go first. ”

He summarized what he had heard to the driver when he asked about the delay.

“First?”

“Yes, it's open from the outside, not from the inside. I have to go first. Do you want to come?”

Enlightenment asked.

“No, go ahead. There was someone I was supposed to meet. ”

However, the delay shook his head and opened his mouth.

“Oh, really? Then I'll go first! ”

“Yes!”

Profit

He listened to the delay and opened the door again.

“Let's go.”

Then he went out and told the waiting knight.

“I'll show you. ”

The knight replied and began to take a step forward. Myeonghu followed the knight out of his quarters and headed out of the Imperial Palace.

What, am I the only one here? ’

After coming out of the Imperial Palace, I had to wonder. He also thought that all the members of the 4th rank would gather, but that was not the case.

No way.

Myeonghu suddenly looked back at the knight.

It's not a trap, is it? ’

The quest 'Surviving the Imperial Court’ you received from Leville has not yet been completed. Moreover, it was likely that this situation was also an intentional situation when he thought of Haputa who had made him smile in a bad way.

“Are you going separately? ”

Myeonghu asked the knight with a look of not knowing. Then I examined the knight's reaction.

“If you're talking about the other four players, yes. Probably start off just like us. There goes Prince Yamdran of the Homan Kingdom. ”

While looking at the rear view of the knight, he turned his head to the knight's words and looked forward. A short distance away, the Marquis of Jahdran and one of his knights are on their way.

‘... I don't think it's a trap. ’

I thought it might be a trap, but it wasn't.

“I see.”

Myeonghu replied to the knight and began to walk again.

“Wow, look at that. It's an NPC Knight, right?

“Oh, and by the looks of it, you look like an Imperial knight. ”

“Great! Knights of the Imperial Court! But who's the NPC behind that article? ”

“You look... noble in your outfit. ”

After he moved his steps, he laughed deeply into the conversations of the surrounding users.

NPC.

The nobleman was right, but not NPC. The sound of NPC made me feel strange.

“We're here.”

Soon after arriving at the plaza, the knight opened his mouth and said: Myeonghu looked around at the knight's words. There was a battlefield ahead of it, and the seats around it were open.

Where do the users see it? Are you just trying to fit in here? ’

There were definitely a lot of users. However, I didn't see any seats for the users. At the very least, the camera was already in place. "Legend" meant only one thing: there was a camera that should not be there.

‘You're already getting ready for the shoot. ’

The station was clear.

“Earl? This way.”

As I looked around, I turned my head to the place where I heard the voice of the knight in my ears. The knight waits for the end of the day at the entrance to the tent, presumably the waiting room.

Overwhelmed

Enlightenment took a step into the tent.

‘Fantastic.'

The weather inside the tent was a little impressed.

"Chapter four."

The waiting room for the 16th and 8th rivers was also luxurious, but the waiting room was even more luxurious than then.

‘Here we are. ’

After checking the luxury of the waiting room, he turned his gaze and saw three men sitting in their seats.

First place is mine.

Then you turn your head to check for empty spots. It was the first place. After confirming that the first seat was his, he saw the nobleman sitting in the second seat.

‘Is that my opponent? ’

The nobleman sitting in the first place must be the opponent of his duel.

Who was it?

The bear thought what was the name of the nobleman sitting in the second seat.

"Ah, Birdie Kembell! ’

“Earl, this is where you belong. ”

Soon after he remembered the noble name, he walked to his seat at the knight's words. Then he looked straight ahead. Again, the stadium was coming at a glance.

“When do we start? ”

Myeonghu turned his gaze at the stadium and asked the knight who was waiting in front.

“We know it starts in 20 minutes. ”

Twenty minutes.

After hearing the knight's start time, the bear thought of what to do for 20 minutes.

‘There's nothing to do. ’

Even though the bear thought about it, there was nothing to do here. However, I was also bored to spend time like this, and after a difficult time, I opened the Character window.

‘Oh, you haven't taken your stats yet. ’

After opening the Character window to check your character's information, you found a bonus stat of 40. Yesterday I leveled up four times on a quest in Bloody's Secret Station, and I forgot to take my bonus stats because I was distracted by the map.

"Invest all your strength..."

No need to worry about it, he invested all of his 40 bonus stats in power. Then I close the character window and open the quest window to see the quests I have received so far.

‘I got five. ’

There were currently five quests listed in the quest window. It was the ‘Journey to the Aman Empire’ received by Alcan Emperor of Helioca, the ‘Refurem's Proposal' received by Luck and the Thief's God Refurem, and the 'Survive in the Imperial Palace’ and 'The White Mask of Earl Haputa' which was last shared by delay and renewed in the Imperial chamber. '

Should I ask him now? ’

Myeonghu thought, closing the quest window and looking at Haputa in the fourth seat. I don't know if I'm going to answer it, but I had to ask one day.

‘Let's ask now. ’

Swook

Finally, Myeonghu got up from his seat and took a step toward the fourth seat of Earl Haputa.

“...? ”

Earl Haputa looked at it with a curious look as it approached. It was not only Haputa who saw the manifesto. The second and third seats of the Chamber and the Marquis of Jabbar, as well as the knights waiting in the waiting room, looked at the verse.

“I wanted to ask you something. ”

Myeonghu opened his mouth.

“To me? ”

Having a curious look on his face, Haputa pointed to himself with a distinctive, sinister smile.

“Yes, I'm collecting masks, but this time I saw a white mask in the Empress's room. ”

After finishing his speech quickly, he thought about going back and quickly opened his mouth.

"Huh?"

However, when I spoke, I had to wonder what Haputa's reaction had changed.

“... ”

Haputa, who had just been making a bad smile, is currently looking a little embarrassed. After Haputa's reaction, he continued to speak.

“I asked the Empress that she received a gift from Earl Haputa. Can you tell me where you got the white mask? ”

After finishing his speech, he examined the reactions of Haputa.

“... ”

Haputa did not respond directly to what he said. I just stared at him with a embarrassed look. Myeonghu thought, waiting for Haputa's answer.

"Darus can't be this guy, can he? ‘

The quest itself was called 'Earl Harputa's White Mask.' Daruss, who bought the statue of Agatha, also had a good chance of becoming a Haputa.

“Well...”

Soon, Hafuta opened her mouth. Enlightenment focused on what Haputa said.

“I got it through an acquaintance, so I don't know where I got it. ”

After finishing speaking, Hafuta smiled again.

“Can you tell me who that acquaintance is? ”

In the words of Haputa, clarification asked again.

“... ”

Then Haputa's smile disappears again. Then, for a moment, I stared at the picture with a cool eye. It was a moment, of course. Hafuta quickly removed the cold and replied to questions later.

“I'm sorry, I don't want him to know. ”

“Ah... I see. I understand.”

He nodded as if he knew the answer to Haputa and walked back to his seat. Myeonghu thought, returning to his seat.

"I think that's Darus."

Seeing that the quest hasn't changed, the acquaintance of Haputa is most likely a lie. I was suspicious no matter what I thought.

And that look...

For a moment, I looked at the cold gaze of Haputa as I looked at her eyes.

‘There must be something. ’

Something was definitely there.

“Myeong-hoon. ”

“... Yes? ”

When he arrived, he looked at the article with the expression, "Why did he call to the voice of the knight calling him?"

“I think you need to get ready. ”

“Oh, yes. ”

In the words of the next knight, he nods. Then I turned my head and looked at Chamberlain standing next to me, looking back at the stadium and thinking.

"Better get it over with, right? ’

Users were watching And I was filming. If you finish quickly, you will get a lot of attention, but the frequency of exposure decreases that much.

Of course, if I continued the duel for a long time through the smoke, I would get less attention than I would finish it sooner. However, the frequency of exposure was longer and less noticeable than ending quickly, not that it didn't get noticed.

‘Let's get this over with. ’

Eventually, Nam Hu decided to finish early and began to walk behind the knight to the stadium.
