I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 662

662. [Side Story] Operation Firefly (2)

[If my father doesn’t fall through this operation, what will I do then?]

Skairian, who spoke so meaningfully… was gently shaking a large fan in his hand.

On the other side, Parekian has attached a fan to one of his six legs and is shaking it as expected.

The target being fanned was Violet between the two, fanned from both sides while sitting on a fancy chair with wheels… she was swallowing the straw that the drinking glass was connected to.

Violet, who had been staring at the sky with her eyes wide open, opened her mouth and made a strange sound like bheh.

“Joota~”

“….”

No, Violet, what are you doing?

In this Black Dragon subjugation battle, it is classified as a reserve group, so there is no need to fight on the front line… Why is it that the bottom of the soul is released?

“omg?!”

Violet, who came to her senses a beat later, struggled with her limbs.

“Save me, Your Highness! Because these dragons are raising me so much! When I came to my senses, I saw that I was spoiling all sorts of things…!”

“No, it doesn’t usually break to that extent…”

Even a real princess wouldn’t be like that. I clicked my tongue.

[Let’s go, Violet. You don’t have to think about other annoying things. Leave everything to us and relax. Come on…]

“Oh no… I’m… the leader of the Gamble Club… Violet…”

With that last word, Violet was stunned and began to salivate. It’s completely gone.

Ignoring Violet, who had given up on being treated as a princess, I faced Skairian.

“Skerian. Do you feel that this strategy is not enough?”

[No… I think it’s very well made. Think of it as the only strategy for you, who have pushed your father’s only weakness to the limit as a human being.]

Skairian smiled, narrowing his eyes.

[But will that be enough?]

“….”

[Wouldn’t it be difficult to defeat your father with only your ‘best’… I think so.]

“If you can’t defeat it with your best. Then what should I do?”

[You said it before. I’m the one who believes that you can’t defeat my father in the first place.]

Skairian looked down at Violet lovingly and gently shook her fan.

[More than the best… I think we need something that combines coincidence, luck, and miracle.]

“….”

I know.

The fact that it is no longer possible to fully defeat the monsters with just strategy in the game.

That fact was already proven during Lord of the Flies and became clear while dealing with the Black Dragon Corps. The transcendent will of the monsters had already tore my strategy paper and escaped.

‘So… what can I do?’

In addition to steadily preparing an attack based on the information you know.

what else can i do

[As promised in advance, I will faithfully fight in this battle as you ordered.]

Skerian swept his long bangs and said.

okay. Instead of fighting and killing each other with the Skyrians and getting them on the same side, he promised to fight his father himself.

Skyrians’ special abilities are focused on defense and evasion. It will come in handy when saving the lives of allies in this Black Dragon subjugation.

[How will you fight your father. what will the ending be? Because I want to see it up close.]

“….”

I just asked something I had been curious about for a long time.

“Skerian. You will enjoy watching the process if we defeat your father.”

[of course. What could be such an exciting story? The story of humans defeating an invincible evil dragon is great…]

“Then what if. If we fail utterly and are annihilated horribly… is that any joy to you?”

There was silence for a moment.

Skyrian hesitated as if he had been caught off guard and sent his characteristic nerdy eyes over his glasses.

[To be honest, I prefer that way.]

“…”

[When human noble history and dignified will are shattered in the face of overwhelming violence and trampled like insects.]

I kept my mouth shut as I listened to him. .

[If the heroes I love are dying in despair, shedding tears, and finally trembling in fear… Oh my God. Can there be anything more fun than watching it right next to you?]

Skairian trembled as if just imagining it made him shudder.

I chewed it up and spit it out without hiding my displeasure.

“You look like your father, so you’re a pervert too.”

[ha ha ha. I can’t help it. I’ve been holed up in the Lake Kingdom library for hundreds of years, and I’ve seen too many stories with happy endings. I’m sick of it.]

This hipster nerd bastard…

Skarian shrugged.

[Defeated the evil dragon and everyone lived happily ever after] is too old-fashioned and obvious. bitten Fresh and cruel tragedies are much more fun.]

“…As expected, you are not on our side.”

[I never said I would be on your side. did you say I am also a member of the Black Dragon Corps. I’m in a position where I want the world to end.]

Skerian scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

[But while you fight with your father. I want to watch the fight from the nearest special seat, so I’ll stand by your side.]

“…”

[So, Ash. If you don’t want your long fight to end in tragedy… you’d better prepare more variables.] “…

”

[There’s still a big difference in class between your father and you humans. My prediction is that at this rate, it will end too easily with a bad ending.]

Skairian frowned and dragged the chair Violet was sitting on. Parekian ran after him.

After glaring at the backs of the trapping monsters, I looked around.

I saw Dusk Bringer looking up at me with a worried look. It looks like he is still wrapped in bandages, as if his injuries have not healed.

“Are you okay, Ash?”

“…grandee.”

I wonder if it’s okay that way, and it’s not unreasonable to go to the next battle with

that injury.

I closed and opened my eyes once and brought up the cruel story I had been putting off.

“Please explain in detail about ‘how to become a dragon’.”

“…!”

Dusk Bringer’s face went white.

***

the next day.

A magic concentrator was distributed to all members of the expedition, and the heroes trained to change their magic into light.

Depending on each person’s magical power, lights of different colors lined up like spotlights and colored the gymnasium. Maybe it’s because all of them are warriors who fought back, so they adapt quickly.

“…”

Dozens of lines of light were scattered and then fired at a single point according to the signal while watching the training… Someone came up behind me.

I could tell who it was without even looking back. Because I called him.

“King Poseidon.”

“…”

The one standing behind me was a giant with blue hair and beard – the mermaid King Poseidon.

I glanced back at him.

“The resolution you gave me in the past is still the same now, right?”

“…”

He didn’t bother to answer. I guess there’s no need to say more.

I exhaled afterward.

“You should go with me. Just the two of us, keeping it a secret from others.”

“…Where are you going?

“I’m going under the Lake Kingdom.”

Even though they were in serious training, the playful heroes started shooting lights at each other’s faces, casting grotesque expressions on their faces to cast shadows, or forming dogs or crabs with their fingers to cast shadows on the wall.

I laughed while watching that childish but friendly look… I turned my body completely and looked straight at King Poseidon.

“There are people you need to meet in order to arrange a ‘variable’.”

King Poseidon’s hardened face soon nodded deeply.

“I will go anywhere. If there is anything I can do to help.”

***

After going through so many preparations…

Time flies so fast that before I knew it, the day before the departure.

The launch ceremony is held today.

I don’t want to make a loud launch ceremony… but it’s also a battle that depends on the fate of the world, and there’s something to be announced at this place where many kings have gathered, so I decided to hold it.

Hotel Crossroads. hall.

A place where all the kings and monarchs of the world defense front gather together before the launch ceremony and share stories.

“So we, the North, have already done enough?”

Openly trolling… There was a king who lit candles in this place.

Yoon’s father was Aryan, the miller of the kingdom of Aryan.

“Why does the North have to suffer so much blood loss in the wake of a monster in the South? Even if the monster goes over the fortress here, the northern part doesn’t matter at all, right?”

He was destroying the atmosphere by repeating the story that had been told a long time ago.

“My country has lost its only ship, and many elite warriors have died. Even my youngest daughter, whom I love, is dying. What more damage do you want me to do?”

“….”

“Now we will fall out of this fight with no reward. You’d better think about it too!”

Did you say that when you are in a crisis, your true nature comes out?

As they were on the verge of destruction, the trolls that looked like they were drawn like this immediately jumped out. oh my.

‘The problem is that the man’s words have a ripple effect of their own.’

The King and the soldiers gathered at the Crossroads were quite frightened.

In front of this extraordinary phenomenon where the day disappeared and the sun was dimmed, morale plummeted and hips kept slipping backwards.

The weather turned cold, the scars left by the Lord of the Flies were deep, and the fear of the black dragon spread along with the darkness that covered the city.

The alliance, which seemed solid, easily fizzled out in the face of fear beyond common sense.

People wanted to run away, and the king of Aryan was leading the way. Cracks were opening in the bonds like grains of sand that had barely been put together.

And now it was time for me to step out.

“Kuhm!”

Clearing my throat, I approached the kings. The surprised kings looked at me in unison.

“Prince Ash…!”

“Good morning everyone. It’s dark for a morning.”

I looked at King Aryan and took out a letter from my bosom.

“This is the will of the youngest princess, Arian Yoon, who served as the acting king of the Arian kingdom on the world defense front. It was entrusted to the Beast King, Quylan, and passed on to me.”

Quylan, who followed behind me, nodded. I smiled.

“Yoon asked me to read this in front of you. So it is.”

I opened the letter to King Aryan before he could say anything more.

“There are things to send to my family and ones to Kuilan. I will give this to each of you, so read it on your own… There is a will sent to me, so I’m going to read it.”

After correcting my voice, I read Yun’s will.

“Your Highness Prince Ash. When I was ordered to write a will, I thought a lot about what to write.”

Yoon’s strokes were bold and clear, just like her personality.

“If I, a warrior representing the north and one of the greatest heros on the world defense front, are about to collapse, it must mean that the situation on the front line is that critical and that the invasion of monsters is dangerous.”

The contents of her self-exaltation were also without hesitation and full of confidence, just like her.

“As desperate as the situation is, people must be afraid. It’s not because they’re cowardly. It is natural for people to feel fear in front of monsters. I was actually very scared too. Even now as I write the will.”

“…”

“The struggle on the front here must be great to overcome that fear and fight.”

The kings who were swept away by the fan of the Aryan king exchanged notices with each other. I pretended not to know and kept reading.

“For heroes, soldiers, kings, and citizens, there will inevitably come a moment when courage weakens. Prince Ash as the head of the world defense front. Please keep reading and looking after it.”

King Aryan’s face turned red at the content that followed.

“Especially someone like my father.”

“What…?!”

“If I collapse, my father will try to withdraw his troops. He’s the one who doesn’t want to see any loss even if he dies soon. Because he is afraid of loss.”

King Arrian, who was about to stop my reading by shouting, stopped at the next words.

“But the truth is, you are braver than anyone. He is someone who knows how to pursue a true cause, not trivial gains and losses.”

“…”

“Hold on to him. Please rekindle the courage that slumbers within him. Prince Ash, you can do it. As it has been for many people, including myself.”

How did you write the will so appropriately to shoot me in advance?

It was something he could write because he knew what his father was like and how he would move if he collapsed.

As I continued reading, I met eyes with King Aryan.

“If you miss out on the great battle here. Immediate loss If you back down because of immediate fear. You will definitely regret it later.”

“…”

“As his daughter, and as the princess of the Aryan kingdom, I will ask. Even after I fall, Aryan, please encourage the North… and all the nations to keep fighting.”

I had already memorized the contents behind it, so I put down the letter and looked around the audience to finish reading it.

“Many people will fall behind me. Many tears will be shed and much blood will be shed.”

“….”

“I hope you don’t consider this a loss. I hope you don’t consider it a failure. This is a fight that is already out of those calculations.”

I closed my eyes and bowed my head.

“It was an honor to be able to fight in a great war to protect the world as an ordinary human being. Prince Ash. I wish you the best of luck, even my share.”

Yun’s will ended like this.

The audience was enveloped in silence.

In fact, other than this, there were a lot of trivial details such as saying that I was a sucker when we first met at the New Terra ballroom, that romance never worked out after being dumped by me, and that you take good care of Quylan, but… you don’t have to read it. there won’t be

“I was originally going to write a ticket before the launching ceremony, but there was no need for that.”

I raised my head and looked around at the kings with a grin.

“Because Princess Yoon wrote such a wonderful letter.”
