I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 514

◈ 514. [Side Story] Surprise party

“What is the strategy you instructed the members of the gamble club? Which of the two White Nights will you choose and how will you defeat it?”

Lucas asked cautiously.

“We have a week until the next defense. Shouldn’t you give us instructions as well? What kind of operation is it?”

I grinned.

Now that the preparations are almost ready, I was thinking of sharing the strategy to be taken in this defensive battle with all the subordinates under my command.

Before that, I gave a small tip to Lucas who was curious.

“Okay, I’ll tell you first, Lucas… It’s a ‘party’.”

Lucas blinked his innocent eyes like a big dog.

“… yes?”

“A party is a party. A strategy to deal with the midnight sun. It’s a party.”

Lucas made a face that didn’t understand what the hell he was talking about.

I smiled and said the name of the operation.

“Operation Surprise Party! In this defense battle, instead of fighting, we have a surprise party!”

“… uh so.”

Lucas, desperately rolling his eyes and trying to interpret my meaning, asked cautiously.

“Did you use the metaphor of a surprise party to attack an army of monsters… ?”

“no? Are you having a real party?”

“… ?”

Lucas made an expression as if he was saying something crazy, but his shoulders trembled immediately after.

okay. It’s only now that I’ve come to a new realization.

The fact that I’ve always been through this war like a madman… … !

District 8. mage tower.

As soon as I entered, the white night of the cyber world that appeared on the magic panel – So-ya was sick of it.

“What are you asking for again this time?! There are no dungeons that can be cleared in the area anymore!

”

No bones (no bones). I tried to pamper him, but isn’t it too much to hate him as soon as he sees his face? Are we still in a partnership?

Now, with my butt on the sofa in front of the monitor very skillfully, I chinned.

“Shoot… no big deal! white night.”

I called him by the name he called me at Crossroads, corrected it urgently, and smiled.

“You and I will work together.”

“You’ve already done a lot… … What is it this time?”

“I made another plan to kill you. It’s a way to trap him and get rid of him. All other requirements for this operation are ready, but one thing is still missing.”

Shooter frowned.

《Is that me?》

“Yes.”

Crossing my legs, I raised the corners of my mouth with a smirk.

“Hey Baekya.”

《Why.》

“Pretend you’re dead.”

《… What?]

The skeleton’s face on the screen became puzzled.

《Pretend to be dead?》

“Yes. It’s to deceive another you. It would be better if you acted very properly rather than just pretending to be dead.”

《How much do you mean by acting properly?》

I told Soya how much she had to pretend to be dead. Soya’s face hardened in embarrassment.

“Don’t be crazy. In the meantime, I cooperated with all your crazy requests, but now this is really nonsense!”

“Why can’t it make sense? If you want to fool your enemies, you have to fool your allies first. Shall we do method acting very properly?”

“Don’t talk nonsense, Ash! There is a limit to being patient with me-”

“Hey, didn’t we work hard to kill another you? Then you have to do it right until the end, right?”

As I began to oil my tongue in earnest, I fired at it.

“I and everyone on our frontline worked hard to get rid of the other you completely. just for you! But are you going to quit here because this last effort is cumbersome?”

“Because it was mutually beneficial… .》

“No! To put it bluntly, we can stick to another you, not you. There are so many benefits he can take care of! But the reason why I’m on your side is to keep my faith with you. faith!”

I banged on the table and lectured.

“But you intend to betray me?! Were we just such a shallow relationship? This is disappointing. Then I’ll go there too… … .”

“Wait a minute! not to sleep! Okay, okay!” Soya

let out a long sigh and stared at me as if she was tired of roasting my gaslighters.

《… explain Why do I have to pretend to be dead? And how am I going to kill another me through that?”

I smiled. It’s all over.

With this, all conditions are cleared.

All preparations for the activation of Operation Surprise Party have been completed.

***

A few days later.

District 8. grand theater.

《… .》

Baekya, the leader of the Jiangshi corps, wearing a crown and wearing a robe.

Dark Night, the name he called in Crossroads, was lost in thought. She was reminiscing about something from a long time ago.

– Dream of Ascension Wizard! Get Godhead and ascend the Constellation!

divinity.

It was the name of the qualifications needed to stand on the same line as those foreign presses.

and… The current self was in a state where it was impossible to obtain godhood.

‘To gain divinity, you must be the only one.’

Otherwise, it would not be possible to be sealed in the constellation where the gods sit.

However, the cloned being, the White Night, was in a state where he could not gain divinity at this rate.

‘To become the only being, I have to kill another me.’

In any case, it is a fate that has no choice but to fight and kill another self. One of them must disappear from this world.

When he found out about this, Dark Night made up his mind.

to kill another self.

And he decided to kill the demon king who took him away as well. To kill the demon king and usurp his divinity.

Because that’s the easiest and surest way for her to gain godhood.

‘Kill another me to secure uniqueness, and kill the demon king to take away the godhood. And it rises to the same eye level as those foreign media.’

This became the purpose of the dark night.

Dark Night continued his research to reach foreign media.

There was a power from the other world given by the demon king, so let’s ride that power and follow it up – we were able to contact a foreign press.

The foreign press was delighted with this ant’s ‘rebellion’ and willingly agreed to lend its strength. This was the identity of the huge eyes that Dark Night borrowed its power from.

and… A miserable life ensued.

The two separated White Nights clashed repeatedly to kill each other, but failed each time. The two knew each other too well to kill.

At the end of this endless antagonism, only time flowed helplessly… … Suddenly, Ash appeared.

If Ash had killed the seven nightmare corps commanders in the meantime, he would be able to kill another himself as well. That’s why I approached and conciliated.

‘Damn you son of a bitch… … just use me… … .’

The next invasion is just around the corner, but in the meantime, Ash has only been using the dark night as he pleases. It seemed that he had no intention of carrying out the request to kill another himself.

It was foolish to think of an alliance with Ash even for a moment.

‘I can’t help it if you come out like this.’

Darkness bit his lower lip.

A few days later, the invasion of royalties will completely burn Ash and his forces.

A new way to kill yourself would have to be devised, but he couldn’t forgive that person who scorned him.

It was the time when the dark night quietly burned its anger.

Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gung!

Suddenly, the entire District 8 vibrated violently.

I’ve been living here for a long time, but this is the first time something like this has happened. Darkness was frightened and jumped out of the seat and stood up.

《What is it?!》

Koo Goong Koo Goo Goong… … .

The ground, which had been shaking as if an earthquake had struck, eventually calmed down. Dark Night stole a cold sweat. What the hell is this?

After a while, the vibration completely stopped.

bang-!

The door to the theater was thrown open and someone came inside.

“white night!”

It was none other than Ash who smiled brightly and fearlessly entered the residence of the commander of the Nightmare Corps.

Whether or not he knew that the great emperor of magic had been angry with him just a moment ago, Ash smiled brightly and ran forward in front of the dark night.

“I did it, I did it!”

“what? What did you do?”

Ash grinned and gestured outside to the dark night who didn’t know why.

“I kept my promise!”

“If it’s a promise… … ?”

“According to your wishes! I mean, I killed another you!”

《… ?!]

It was really cool to run out and see it.

Kung Koo Goo Goong… … .

The mage tower seen in the distance was collapsing, engulfed in flames.

The mage tower boasted the strongest defense among all the facilities in the deep part of the dungeon of the Lake Kingdom, as well as District 8. That place has collapsed.

“Then, the vibration from before… ?”

“Right. it’s me! It was the aftermath of the explosion of that mage tower!”

Shrugging his shoulders, facing the smug Ash, Dark Night stammered.

“How the hell… ? Even I can’t penetrate the defense there… … ?”

“Ha ha! That’s right, I slapped him in the back of the head. The owner of that magic tower trusted me quite a bit.”

Ash briefly explained how he had tricked the owner of the tower, planted a bomb through the firewall, disabled the magic defense, and destroyed the central pillar.

Dark Night shed admiration at the collapsed mage tower.

If the Mage Tower was damaged to this extent, the other self who had uploaded his consciousness into the Mage Tower’s mechanism system would never be safe.

“I blew it clean, but I still don’t know. You may search thoroughly and burn it.”

《Let’s do that.》 Since

the external defense system, which was the core of the Mage’s attack, collapsed, this was enough to defeat the other self in the darkness, even if he was still alive.

Dark Night, one of the long-cherished dreams of a lifetime, was even touched by his face. Ash shrugged triumphantly.

“Did you tell me? I am a man who keeps his promises.”

“ash… .》

“I haven’t been able to tell you for a while because I was carrying out the operation in secret, but how is it? Will you trust me now?”

Darkness nodded his head.

《Sorry for doubting you all this time.》

“You doubted it too?”

“Honestly, it was worth it. Look back on what you’ve done… … .”

“Admit it. It must have been unreliable. But did you make it in the end?”

Ash chuckled and held out his hand.

“Then are we allies now?”

《… Of course. Ash.]

Dark Night reached out and grabbed Ash’s hand.

The hands of the human and the Jiangshi held each other firmly and shook up and down.

《I and the Lich Corps will become your allies and cooperate until the day you defeat the demon king.》

“It’s really reliable. Oh, so they won’t attack us on this invasion day?”

“of course. There is no reason to point the sword at Woogun.]

Ssik.

A long arc formed at the corner of Ash’s mouth.

“Then can you come over for a bit instead of invading?”

《… What?”

Dark Night, unable to understand Ash’s words for a moment, blinked blankly. Ash grinned and pulled something from his bosom.

“Now take it.”

“This… ?”

“It’s an invitation!”

Ash handed over an invitation made of luxurious material, smiling innocently as if a child were inviting him to a birthday party.

“The scheduled date for the next defense match is actually the exact 2nd anniversary since I was assigned to this city!”

“uh… So?”

“In addition to that, there will be a party to welcome the new allies who have joined the alliance. Would you like to attend and brighten up the occasion?”

Darkness’s mouth opened slightly.

The accident was hardened by the development of the situation beyond common sense.

“Wait a minute. wait a minute ash I must have forgotten, but I am a monster.”

“Huh?”

Ash tilted his head, his innocent eyes twinkling.

“however?”

“Are you going to let me into your city? Are you talking sanely?]

“What does being a monster have to do with it? Are we allies anyway? They are colleagues on the world defense front who will stand shoulder to shoulder together and defeat the demon lord and save the world!”

Ash pushed the invitation forward again with a pure white smile.

“So come on! Don’t be shy and come to play too!”

《… .]

Ash’s invitation was held in Dark Night’s hand, which was sweating profusely.

The corners of Ash’s lips, which had been shining pure white, curled up in a smirk without anyone noticing.

“Let’s be real friends!”
