- Volume 5 Episode 8

8. Last Subjugation (2)

“I want you to give me strength.”

After Jeffrino's explanation was over, the quest occurred.

[The quest 'The Last Subjugation' has occurred]

[Last Subjugation]

Due to the desperate efforts of the Demon Tower and the central shrine, the Demon Bridge has suffered a lot of damage.

The royal family of Ruzeroth followed in their footsteps and took charge of the cleaning up of the remaining followers and cadres.

A lot of soldiers and knights have already been recruited to the hideout where there are general believers, and the troops to subdue the officers have been left out, but Jeffrino wants to borrow your power to ensure that the officers are dealt with in order to minimize the damage. .

Join forces with the royal family to subdue the demonic cadres for the sake of the people.

Depending on your contribution, there is a possibility that you will be accepted as a member of the Ruzeros Kingdom.

Completion Conditions: Subjugation of Dehai and Pia (0/2)

Success Rewards: Rewards, experience, and title 'Shield of the Kingdom' according to your contribution to battle

Failure Penalty: Title 'Broken Shield', increased combat power of demon followers, decreased favorability of Jeffrey No.

The players who received the quest began to murmur a little.

As Jeffrino's story progressed, the contents of the quest to be linked were guessed, so there was no confusion about it.

What made the players murmur was the one sentence embedded at the bottom of the quest.

[Depending on your contribution, there is a possibility that you will be accepted as a member of the Ruzeros Kingdom.]

Members of the kingdom and players all accepted it in the same sense.

The opportunity to become the first player to receive the title of nobility since the opening of Initium, they accepted it as such.

But few of them have that possibility.

It was too vain to say that he was given the title of nobility with just this one thing.

Probably, only those who have steadily contributed to the royal family and built up favorability are included in this possibility.

Still, it was a good thing for those who didn't have the chance to be almost certain that players could become nobles.

All the players in the audience accepted the quest without you or me.

If I hadn't planned on continuing the quest in the first place, I wouldn't have come here.

"I beg you to give me a lot of strength."

"......?"

It was like a word of encouragement to all the players, but for some reason, Hoya felt as if Geoffrino was looking at him and speaking.

'Is it an illusion...?'

The locations of Dehai and Pia have already been identified with the help of Evan.

This is a story that players know, but in reality, Moan was specifying their location.Even though he was a horseman, it was almost impossible to find the presence of a person he had never met on this wide continent with detection magic.

Regardless of the truth, their location was already known, so the plan was decided to meet again two days later and set off for the final subjugation after each had made sufficient preparations.

"Hoya-sama! Wait a minute!"

After all the stories were over, Luna approached Hoya on the way out of the royal castle.

"Have you not forgotten the promise we made earlier?"

"A promise? ......Ah. Yes, I remember."

"I'm glad you did! After this quest is over, keep that promise!"

"Yes Yes."

"It's for sure!"

After receiving Hoya's confirmation, Luna waved her hand and went back to the Royal Knights.

* * *

"Hello, Barney TV viewers! I'm Yoo Ah, the boyfriend and future husband of your eternally fashionable older sister Barney!"

"...what are you doing now?"

On the day that the subjugation of the magyo cadres was to be carried out, the infant who arrived at the promised meeting point taunted his hands in the air, looked at the air, and spoke vigorously.

"No way! There is a villager passing by by chance over here! Shall we talk to him? Hello! Hoya, look over there and say hi."

"Huh? That, hello...?"

"Yes! It was nice to hear you say hello!"

"...what are you really doing?"

"I'm making a video."

Barney had asked Yooa for a video after hearing the story of the quest.

He wanted to follow him directly, but it was a huge inconvenience, so Barney suppressed his instincts and endured it.

"Yes? But can I take a picture?"

"What's wrong? Look around. At least one person in the group is filming."

At the infant's words, he looked around at the players around him and saw that he was making gestures in the air, as if he was taking a sparse video.

As the content of the quest was the content, real-time streaming was implicitly prohibited, but there was no problem because the video was being edited later.

"Adventures, please gather!"

"I'll leave after a full overhaul!"

At the words of the knights, players gathered in one place.

The people who received this quest were Beksul and Arko of Seol Baekho, Copygil and Eriman of Arena, Bane, Luna and Gangnam Firefist of the Royal Knights, and Hoya, Doban and Yooa in total.

From the point of view of the Ruzeros Kingdom, it was impossible to borrow a lot of power from the adventurers, so nine people were selected in the order of their contribution when Natalie was captured, and Hoya was added there.

In addition to the 10 players, Melvuer and the 1st Knights of the Royal Family were members for subjugating the executives this time.

The opponent is not a huge monster, but an ordinary person, so there is not an excessive number of people.

"I'm leaving!"

After finishing the maintenance, they quietly walked towards the place where Dehai and Pia were.

* * *

“There you are, what are you doing now?”

"......"

"Hey~? What are we going to do now?"

"Be quiet, I'm thinking. It's crazy."

Pia shut her mouth with a dissatisfied expression on Dehai's rant.

The place where they are now is located in the rocky area of ​​the southwestern part of the continent as one of the hideouts of the Magyo, known only to the executives who are not known to the general members of the Magyo.

They ran away from Moan and hid there.

And that fact came to Dehai as a sense of déjà vu.

'Why were we able to escape...'

The day I ran away out of fear and fear, and the next day, due to the trembling of my body, questions that I had never thought of as strange began to creep in my head.

She was a monster that killed mine as easily as cutting the weeds in her front yard.

If they could have prevented them from escaping, why did they succeed?

She couldn't shake the feeling that she had let them go on purpose.

If not, the situation now doesn't make sense.

"Duh, Dhai."

"I told you to be quiet."

"Oh, right? You're calling to let the knights know they're coming here?"

"what......?"

"The knights are coming here! Dozens of knights and about 10 adventurers?"

The types of undead that Pia can control are wide.

Not only the skeleton, which can be called the basics of the undead, but also the Death Knight can move more than 10 objects at a time.

What makes her different from other necromancers is that she turns small animals like rats into zombies.

Such small animals were of great help when infiltrating into buildings and stealing information or spying on the surroundings.

"Did this place get caught? How...?"

"Think about that later, what are you going to do now? Run away?"

"...No, yes, it will be found again later."

The discovery of this place was right to assume that the other party had secured an important source of information.

Only the executives know about this place, so if you think of it as an extinction method, the source of the information is probably the hoop, that is, the papis.

I don't know why they're giving out information, but even if they ran away to another hideout, they would soon chase after them, and even if they return to their usual form, it will be after all their information has already been delivered.

At that time, according to Main's opinion, they weren't revealing their identities to each other.

In the end, the two had only one option to choose from.

If you want to live, you have to hit first before you get hit."Pia, call all the mice."

"Are you trying to do that? They're not skeleton-like pets, so if they die, it's over. I'll have to help you fill in the numbers later."

"I get it."

* * *

"...I've come this far without any problems, so I'm more anxious for nothing."

A toddler who was walking in line through the rock formations uttered a word.

Certainly, as he said, he had moved almost to the nose of the destination, but there were no problems except for the rare occurrence of monsters inhabiting this place on the way.

"Don't say things like that. There is a saying that words become seeds."

"Huh? What do you mean? How does it make sense?"

"Uh, I mean... It's a saying that you should be careful about because it can actually happen. It's a Korean proverb."

"Ah~ I really hope so..."

Kwagwang-! bang! bang!

Before the infant could finish speaking, the sound of an explosion could be heard from the front of the group.

"...it really is."

"Be careful everyone! The rats are exploding!"

"mouse?"

As I tilted my head at the words I heard from in front, I saw several rats running at high speed under people's feet.

Each of the rats had rotted fur and skin, and a red crest was engraved on their back.

Wrath-! bang!

The crest engraved on the rat's back emitted a bright light and caused a huge explosion.

Hundreds of these rats, if all the rats explode, great damage will occur.

"Take it out before it explodes!"

"Yes!"

The well-trained knights and soldiers, despite the sudden change of circumstances, followed Melvuer's instructions and showed a systematic movement without panic.

The players were also wielding their weapons to hunt down the rats before they exploded after clearing the commotion, but the rats were too quick than expected and the group was getting in the way, so hunting wasn't as expected.

In the end, the rats that could not be hunted were creating a chaos in which a chain of explosions occurred.

After a while, all the rats exploded or were hunted and disappeared, but the damage was quite large.

People tried to recover using potions, but the effects of potions alone could not remove all the damage.

It would be a different story if they used heels, but Doban, Hoya, and Arko were the only ones who could use heels right now.

However, everyone thought that they could not expect a large amount of recovery because they were also in the form of a combat class, not a secondary class, such as a priest.

It was impossible for the three of us to handle the situation, and when everyone was thinking that way, Hoya looked around and moved to one place.

He moved to a place with as many players and NPCs as possible who had not yet recovered all damage in a straight line when looking ahead.

"Holly Ray."

As Hoya reached out, a pillar of light struck them.
