Jae-ho, who met Sigor king again.
He looked much more relaxed when he heard about the progress of the incident from Jae-ho.
"Really... I've been nervous for days...….”
"You can relax now. They can't trust each other anymore.”
"Hmmm... ...but was there really a demon?"
"Well, how many times have you told me? It's really there."
"Oh, no... ... I thought it was so absurd...….”
King Sigor, who is easily discouraged by Jae-ho's voice.….
"The demons have actually appeared, and the nobles are in such a frenzy. I hear you've been asked to send your soldiers."
Crunch-
With his head down, Jae-ho breathed a deep sigh at the sight of him.
How the hell are you keeping the throne?’
He had a timid personality that I couldn't understand.
"Anyways, this is the solution."
"Oh, I see."
[You have successfully destroyed .]
[Quest is complete.]
"Thank you, King Alsia. Then in return for you...….”
"Embei Forest."
"Gold 3...... eh?"
"Give me the forest of Embay.”
“……?”
“???”
You're some kind of a burglarbitrary robbery.….
No matter how much help you have given.But give up the territory no matter how hard I can't believe it.
"Come on, think about it."
Jae-ho began to persuade in a quiet voice.
"It's the honor of Sigor to end up hurting as the demons get more and more wild."
"Hmm?"
"In fact, what does it matter, whether it's the nobles or the people there? But if we don't get the case straightened out, the rumors will spread across the continent, and it will bring the harsh gaze of another country."
"But if you send the knights to order the destruction...….”
"Time, money, and human casualties. The Knights of the Crown are weakened? Will the nobles sit still?"
"What, what?"
"And if you order the nobles, you can't guarantee that they'll settle it safely. They're already at odds with each other."
“…….”
a subtle difference between intimidation and persuasion
-It's more contemptible.... Upp!
I pressed the whining into my pocket.
"I'll do all that for you in the Elishia Garden. Zero cost! Zero worries! You know that, right? The one where the forest of Embay was so quiet that you didn't know if there were demons before? It's all thanks to who! It's thanks to our Elysia flower garden - this is what I mean."
"Wow, what is it?".”
King Sigor nodded when he heard Jae-ho's story.
Come to think of it, it wasn't wrong.
No one believed in the existence of demons until the nobles protested and kicked Jae-ho out of the Mbei Forest.
But it actually appeared, and the nobles were helplessly robbed.
Although it was as good as giving away part of its territory...... Wasn't it practically nothing in the first place?
'Huh? Wait...Well, then we could take the trouble out of it.’
King Sigor's determination with a head that won't turn.
"Then why don't the Elysia Painter take the forest of Embay altogether?"
“?!!”
Jae-ho almost screamed.
Best results without a hitch!
The inside and outside of Sigor was predictable.
To be free from responsibility in the event of a major incident in the forest of Embay.
Of course, as long as Jae-ho manages the place, there was never going to be a problem.
"Come on, then, shall we make a contract?”
Jae-ho quickly drove the nail in to change the subject.
As a result
[Embei Forest is imputed into the territory of the Elysia Garden.]
Finally, the maneuver to take over the Embay forest has been completed.
[ You have earned the title.
[Gets the upper hand in negotiations with most aristocrats.]
I got a bad title.
* * *
Returning to the Embay Forest, Jae-ho collected them all in the center of the village.
"Well done, everybody. We're pulling out now."
"Hmm? Is it over already?"
"It's been a lot of fun.….”
"Can't you just do a little more? It was nice to see the humans shivering with blue."
"I've achieved all my goals. Oh, I'm telling you, if you go out of the woods on Embay and you get caught and cause trouble...….”
When Jae-ho's eyes glowed fiercely, the demons shut their mouths.
Even if I didn't have to say it all, I could tell what would have been omitted later.
Again the demons and blacksmiths went back to the site of the construction of the dumping ground, and Jae-ho went back to the Elysia flower garden and sent the elves back.
As we proceed with this, we have confirmed that the demons do not run away without surveillance, but it is also difficult to fully trust them.
"You're so scared of preconceptions.’
If it were a human being, it would have been something to believe.
Poor guys who can't trust themselves because they're just "devils."
-You don't have to sympathize. They're blessed enough not to go back to the devil anyway.
Jae-ho agreed with his old man's cold assessment.
"Well, much better than going back and being tortured."
Jing Jing, who saw the conversation between the two, just shook his head without saying anything.

Ant Hell!
Ordinary people don't know it, but most people who raise it as a priest class know it.
The southern sea of the continent.
If you take a boat from the port there for a long time, you will see a storm zone, which is called the Ant Hell.
The reason for the name was obvious.
It's hard to get out of here.
But ant hell was only a name given by the people of the continent, and originally it had a beautiful name, 'Blue Mountain Island.'
As advised by Jin-ah, Wan-sik took the Optima Order Quest and came to the Blue Mountain Island.
"The story says it was a peaceful island before the devils invaded."
said Jin-ah, who came with him.
"But the demons failed to summon the people of this island as a sacrifice, and the island was cursed by the aftermath."
“…….”
"The islanders groan daily from untreatable diseases and die in terrible pain if they don't have regular purification. That's why it's popular as a level-up work place."
“…….”
"But once you come in, you can't go out again for at least a week...….”
"Excuse me, Jin-
Dansik, who was listening silently, opened his mouth.
"Can't you shut up?"
"What?! How can you say that?!!"
Jin-ah answered in an exaggerated voice.
"I can't concentrate!"
A complete diet that has been devoured since entering the island, repeating only the treatment and purification of the sick.
Today, I have already dealt with dozens of people, and I had to meet patients who still have a long way to go.
However, Jin-ah, who was following me around, got on my nerves.
Now that you're a sex knight, why would you follow me here?….
"I'm bored! I've been here, too, but I don't call it ant hell for nothing. Look over there!"
A priest that Jin-ah points to.
His eyes were out of focus, staring into space, and his hands were using only the skill repeatedly mechanically.
"The atmosphere here itself is so dark and it's a place of repetitive work, so it often goes crazy like that."
“…….”
It was certainly worth it if you look at the surrounding scenery.
A place where the scent of death is stronger than any other place, even without monsters.
"But even so, you'd rather get out of the island than fool around here. I can't even level up at all."
"Ay, I'm not the one who plays so tight anymore. Shouldn't you be enjoying the game? Haha!"
Jin-ah, who has been completely transformed by Jae-ho's advice.
On the other hand, Wan-sik, who looked back on his fully contrasted self, breathed a deep sigh.
"Next."
In the end, giving up holding down Jin-ah, Wan-sik called the next patient.
"Oops..."
A man who came to the end of the meal with a painful groan.
The black spots on the skin covered with lobes were traces of curses received by ancestors.
"Hmm... ...that's a little too much. He hasn't been here in days."
"Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...….”
A patient who can't even afford to answer because of pain.
"Then I'll get started."
Not only the priests but also the residents of the island, all of this is a mechanical routine.
Even though his opponent did not answer, he reached out without paying attention to the completion.
Boom boom-!
At that moment, Jin-ah grabbed Wan-sik's arm and pulled it.
"Get away! Give up!!!"
"Huh?"
Flapping-!!!
A patient who suddenly threw off his robe and jumped up!
Then a black horn with a small forehead was revealed.
"The great master calls us!!!”
Poo-hwa-a-a-aah!
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Black flames shot up all over the body, and he struggled with pain.
Then it soon became ashes and disappeared.
"......what is it?"
It's been more than two weeks since I came here, but I've never seen it before.
"This is what I said before.”
As expected, Jin-ah began to clean up her surroundings as if she were a dead person.
"A superstition that goes around even among the residents of this place."
"......what is it?"
"Don't you remember?"
Most of the huge amount of chatter poured through Jin-ah's mouth was one ear and the other.
"......yes, I admit that part, so I'll explain it again.”
The cursed inhabitants were always suffering from terrible pain and nightmares.
In order to save them, the priests of each religion, who are the agents of the gods, stay on this island all the time.
But all they do is ease the pain for a very short time, and they have not done a fundamental solution.
There is only one way to end this pain.
To cease treatment immediately and succumb to the whispers of the curse.
In other words, it is to make a personal appeal for oneself.
The key argument was that he could gain peace through him.
"Uh... ...so what he just did was a personal conspiracy?”
"That's right. Usually they do things in their own homes or in the corner of the island, but very occasionally they do it here, too."
"Are you sure you're okay with that? If we make a personal appeal, the devil can come down.”
"Ha-ha, you'd have already shown up if you were going to. Where is the devil a gangster? One or two of them nibbling and the devil wakes up...….”
Currrr-r-r-rr-r-
The ground began to shake, as if an earthquake had suddenly an earthquake.
[Somewhere on the Blue Mountain Lake, cracks have occurred that connect with the horse gauge.]
[The curse of the residents of the Blue Sanho Island becomes more powerful.]
[Residents fall more easily into the temptation of human rights offering.
Crack can lead to the lower demons.
[If the crack is larger, it can even ascend to the Great Devils.]
“??”
Wan-sik sent a look at Jin-ah asking for an explanation.
"Uh... ...you must have piled up a lot.”
That's all I could say.
* * *
In the midst of a frenzy on a remote island south of the continent, Jae-ho was preparing for another scam.
It's a treasure box scam.
Now that false information has spread that it is Axpace and Goldus that stole Idran's treasure, it was necessary to convince them.
If Jae-ho remained silent without any reaction, they had no choice but to doubt the treasure box they had taken.
"Let's see... ...how to tangential with Axpace...….”
Jae-ho brooded on the tangential method he had heard from Taylor.
-First of all, the Axpace crew will be in all the big cities. Especially if it's a back alley dealing with information.
-Is it in the garden?
-Uh...... I'm not sure there. Is there a back alley?
-Well.......
-You'd better just go to the nearest Lassel Kingdom and do it. Anyway, go over there and...….
So Jae-ho visited the kingdom of Rasel with Tina after a long time.
Then he headed to a bar in the dark...….
Boom!!!
"I heard there are Elves here!! Where are you?!
"Come out!!! You damned bastards!!!”
A group of rascals kicked at the door of the bar and shouted.
Wasn't that the same pattern the other day?’
Jae-ho tilted his head and waved at the leader.
"Seed!"
“?!!!”
A partner who is close to Jaeho(?).
His face turned pale when he heard Jae-ho's voice.
