I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 444

◈ 444. [Side Story] All The Kings (4)

The red spider queen’s head was blown off by Damian’s magic bullet.

Immediately after, the spiders stopped like a lie.

All remaining red spiders in the entire area stopped moving at once. The kings, who had wrapped their heads and shivered, blinked their eyes at the sight of these spiders.

“what… Did you stop?”

“What is this?”

“Is it over… ?”

Approaching those kings, I grinned.

“Fortunately, our sniper managed to find the enemy queen before things got worse… I just removed it.”

“In that case… ?”

“yes. The immediate defensive war is over.”

I looked under the castle wall for a while. Even the kings hesitated and looked that way.

The corpses of the spiders were piled up on a hill. Even those who were still breathing stood still, motionless.

Looking at this bizarre scenery, I added.

“In another few weeks, new monsters will arrive.”

“It’s coming again… ? How big is this?”

“That’s right. There have been many times when more than this has come… … Well, anyway, the situation is over for today. It is our victory.”

Turning around, I shouted at the soldiers.

“All troops! Good job everyone!”

chuck!

The soldiers looked at me in unison. I nodded heavily.

“The spider army is an army of monsters that I encountered when I first came to this city. At that time, Crossroads had to lose thousands of troops.”

The scene from the tutorial stage is still fresh in my eyes.

Allied soldiers dying in that grueling and difficult battle… … .

I stretched out my hand and ran it all over the wall.

“But there are no casualties on our side today.”

And the spider army, which was so terrible and powerful then, fell like autumn leaves today.

The red spiders couldn’t cross the wall in the end, and our soldiers didn’t get a single wound.

“You are strong!”

I shouted out loud once more.

“We are strong! Proud of you, my warriors!”

No doubt we have grown up.

And it will grow even more in the future.

I smiled brightly and clenched my fists.

“Let’s eat and drink comfortably today!”

Wow-!

The soldiers cheered in unison.

The roar of victory filled the walls of the Crossroads. It was as loud as the sound of cannon fire.

Turning away from the exalted soldiers, I looked at the kings and smiled slightly.

“It’s a relief that our frontline didn’t show any shame to the guests.”

The kings were still dumbfounded.

After witnessing the overwhelming army of monsters and being attacked right in front of their noses, they turned it into a victory at once and showed the soldiers cheering.

will be restless You will have a lot to think about.

I pointed to the stairs leading down the castle wall.

“Come on down. Shouldn’t we be talking about what we’ve been talking about?”

***

Get the kings safely back to their hotel.

Lucas cautiously asked as he watched the wires being tidied up.

“… Didn’t Damian just shoot the spider queen from the beginning and finish it without having to fight the spiders?”

“that’s right.”

The location of the queen had been specified from the beginning. Damian was waiting to be sniped. Until I give you a signal.

If only the boss is caught, all movements stop, and the boss object is a queen spider object with weak combat power.

He is the type to command from a safe and distant place, but for Damian, sniping at such a long distance is not a problem.

I was able to finish the stage much easier in the first place. but.

“That’s why there’s no dramatic effect.”

I needed to show you.

To those who live safely far away and do not realize this great threat.

What kind of creature is a monster?

How deep is the hatred they have for humans from the bottom of their souls.

And what kind of fights the people of the monster front have fought and will continue to do in the future.

‘If you ask me, it can be called a show.’

But it was a necessary show.

Then someone staggered towards me. I looked back at her and smiled.

“Good work Violet.”

“… I have finished everything you asked me to do.”

It was the illusionist Violet, the leader of the gamblers’ party ‘Gamble Club’ that I recruited this time. Her lips were pouting, but she made a sincere report.

“At the right timing, the magic realm was deployed, and the kings gathered here showed the illusion of a red spider attacking… Is that how it should be?”

“good job. Everyone was fooled.”

Yes.

The attack of the Red Spider Corps was real, but all the spiders that intruded toward the kings in the latter half of the battle were illusions.

Our defenses aren’t flimsy enough to let monsters attack VIPs. It was all an extension of the show I planned and executed.

– How come these guys are not monsters but like water balloons! It tastes good when you catch it cool!

When Kuylan said this line, my stomach felt hot.

That’s because he wasn’t a real monster, but an illusion created by Violet… … It’s only natural that he directed it so that he collapses with each swing of his fist.

“The threat of a monster is more palpable when you see it with your own eyes like this, rather than hearing about it through rumors.”

I stood in front of the dead red spider on the wall.

“It is better to feel the threat of death right in front of your nose than to see it with your eyes from a distance… It makes a lot more sense.”

The creepy spider monster was in a state of silence with its mouth half open.

I just reached out and kicked the monster in the mouth.

“But since VIPs can’t actually stick their heads into the monster’s jaws, they made use of useful rookies to give them an indirect experience like this.”

A bit of bluff to most truth.

If you mix it in this proportion, you will have no choice but to be deceived.

And to this extent- it made me realize how serious the monster’s threat was, almost to the extent of grabbing him by the collar and shaking him.

Kings will be able to see things more clearly. It will be easier to talk in the future.

“Now then, since I’ve been moderately frightened… Shall we cook slowly?”

The current situation is to whip out the whip first.

It was time to feed carrots to the bewildered kings.

***

That night.

While the soldiers had a victory banquet, I had dinner with the guests.

I thought that some of the kings would run away, but surprisingly, not one of them stayed away.

Is it because everyone has a bad name because he is a king, or is it because he loses face if he runs away from here?

‘I don’t know which one, but it went well.’

The banquet hall was gorgeous in its own way.

Even in this rural outback, Serenade has been skillfully serving course dishes that are not particularly inferior to those of the imperial family.

However, the kings’ eyes were focused on me, not the cooking. It’s delicious, but listen while eating. It’s a bit embarrassing since I’m cutting meat by myself.

“The ones who invaded today are only a small part of the entire monster army.”

Following the etiquette he had learned in the Imperial City, he cut the steak elegantly, put it in his mouth violently, and chewed it. And then I spoke.

“And the monsters that come in every time are getting stronger. Both qualitatively and quantitatively.”

“There are more and more monsters like that… ?”

“Eventually, there will be hundreds and thousands of times more powerful monsters than today’s spiders.”

It was actually like that in the game.

If you go to the second half of the third year, the power inflation of the monsters will be gone, and the defense battle will not be established.

Before the crossroads can hold out any longer and fall, we must attack their base – the last dungeon ‘Castle’ inside the Lake Kingdom.

If the capture of the capital fails and the last day of the third year comes… … .

“I can’t afford it.”

The crossroads are captured by the literal flood of monsters. The monster front collapses.

After that, it’s obvious that I can’t see anything. There is no way that the upper world will be safe when the power lines are collapsing here, where I am good at catching monsters.

“Right now, we are holding back well with only our troops here. But it’s getting more and more difficult to handle. And if they finally break through the monster front here… … .”

I looked around at the kings and shrugged.

“Well, since you saw it today, you should know it well now. what will happen.”

Because it is a monster front, it can be blocked.

If that monster front collapses.

If an army of monsters surges like a wave from the south, other cities and countries will be destroyed.

“I need your help. More bluntly, we need your full strength, not just your help.”

I slowly spoke of the purpose of gathering these kings here.

“I want you to pack everything you have and come and fight together here on the monster front. Because otherwise you and all your people will die.”

The faces of the kings turned pale.

The air was different from the day before. If I hadn’t come face-to-face with an actual monster, my words would have sounded like empty threats.

However, they witnessed the monster in person today. I was attacked right in front of my nose.

One can very easily imagine that threat posed to one’s own people.

“My purpose is not to engage in political strife with Fernandez. It is to protect this world.”

There are real threats.

“And the world is what everyone in the world has to protect together. That’s why everyone should cooperate.”

There is a cause and cause.

So, finally, what do you need?

“And if you cooperate – if you also join us here on the Kaiju Front, we will be happy to provide what each of you desires.”

It’s just carrots.

Even with such a huge threat right in front of their noses, people eventually move with carrots. What can I do? If this is also natural, it will be natural.

It was perhaps the most awaited topic. The eyes of the kings flashed.

Among the kings gathered here, I looked around the most necessary and powerful force-four heterogeneous kings in turn, and then uttered a low voice.

“First of all, the elimination of racial discrimination.”

“… !”

“I will end the slavery of different races that has lasted for a hundred years. We will remove the restrictions on living in the borough and return you to your hometown.”

The biggest reason why heterogeneous slavery was introduced was to solidify that mankind was the winner of the war and systematically trample the heterogeneous race.

And I was thinking of getting rid of this from the beginning.

Well, it’s not because I had noble intentions or because I lived in a democratic society.

This is the most effective card to attract these different races.

Above all, it is because distinctions such as race or status have no meaning in front of a monster.

“Monsters don’t discriminate against people. kill equally. They don’t kill people of the empire first, and they don’t kill people of different races later.”

The purpose of the monsters is simple.

Kills people. destroy the world

That’s why the purpose of the monster front here against him is also simple.

save people protect the world

“There is no ideology in the struggle of the monster front. There are no nations and no tribes. Being here is only for the simple purpose of saving the people behind the walls.”

Sublime in its simplicity

We only fight for life. Others joining this front must also follow the banner I have raised.

I would definitely do this.

“The monster front should not be divided into ideologies, nations, and tribes, and infighting. On the monster front, only people should take precedence.”

It is the same that we all have only one life, and the value of that life cannot be discriminated against.

In order to prevent the use of different races as meat shields and saving only humans, in the first place.

And through this guarantee, in order to allow the different races to participate in the war with peace of mind.

Above all, the monster is a powerful enemy that can be defeated only when everyone in the world fights shoulder to shoulder.

We all have to stand on an equal footing. So I thought of restoring their status to a hundred years ago.

“How is it?”

I put on my pod and asked.

“I think it’s a pretty good suggestion.”

It’s not good enough.

How are you guys going to turn this down?
