Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 326
◈ 326. [[Free Exploration] Proclamation of Imperial Decree
Even though he's wearing a weird can and is still frowning, Lucas is back..
I decided not to ask anything for now. When the situation becomes more stable (when that can is removed), we can talk about it carefully..
“Today I'm going on a free exploration of the dungeon.!”
I plan to go to the dungeon today to test the ultimate skill I acquired, [Declare Imperial Decree]..
First of all, in order to use [Imperial Declaration], you need a flagpole and a flag..
I didn't even care about stats, I just picked up an Imperial Army standard flagpole from the blacksmith warehouse..
I didn't have any imperial flags left, so instead I took out the fall festival information flags that were piled up in the warehouse and put them on..
It's just a skill test anyway, so who cares what the flag is?.
“It's heavy!”
But it weighs quite a bit. I accidentally lifted it and stumbled..
Combined with the flagpole and the flag, it's heavier than I thought? You may not know it, but the flag bearers who carry the flags of each unit probably have enormous arm muscles. Okay.
“I will listen, my lord..”
“Oh, thank you.”
Since Lucas claimed to be the porter, I left it to him. Where can I use my remaining strength and stamina stats? Prince, please carry my luggage for me..
“Okay, then, while we're out, let's gather the rest of the party.!”
Evangeline is staying at the manor house, so you can join her last. First, let's stop by the temple and inn and take Damian and Junior out..
So I left the blacksmith shop and headed to the temple. Damian happened to be sweeping a broom in the front yard of the temple..
“yo. this! Damian! Did you sleep well? It's a call! Get your gear!”
“Ah, prince! yes!”
Damian's eyes widened as he turned around with a bright face at my call..
I followed Damian's gaze wondering why, and he was looking at Lucas standing behind me..
A tall knight covered in a tin can, waving the flag of the fall festival that has already ended... … . It's a bit weird though.
“iced coffee! Ahhh!”
Damian suddenly clapped his hands and made a strange noise.,
“I get it, I get it! wait a minute!”
“huh?”
I rushed into the temple. what's the matter?
A moment later, Damian ran out, carrying a horse gun on his back and holding something in his hand..
In Damian's hand was a small flag symbolizing the Goddess religion..
Damian waved the small flag vigorously from side to side and smiled brightly..
“song!”
“…….”
no… … It's not like a flag parade show.…….
But I didn't have the courage to tell the cruel truth in front of Damian, who was smiling so innocently..
I nodded hesitantly and took the lead..
The next place we arrived was an inn..
Junior, who was sitting on the terrace drinking coffee and writing something on paper, frowned when he saw us..
“majesty? And everyone……?”
The Tin Knight holding up the festival flag high, and Damian getting excited and waving the small Goddess Church flag left and right..
Junior looked at this situation and said, “Aha!” Then she snapped her fingers..
“I know what it is!”
Then he went into his room... … He came out holding a kite shaped like an eagle. what is that again?
“If you do this... … yap!”
Junior attached the kite's string to his staff and used wind magic to make the kite float upward..
The kite soared upward and flapped its long tail in the sky. So this also looks like a flag.
“This is a magic kite for high altitude scouting, so this should be fine.?”
“…….”
what?
What do you mean it's okay? Is that okay as a flag??
‘No, I mean. It's not a flag parade! How did this happen?!’
But what should I do? I'm not tactful enough to pour cold water on strangely happy party members..
The four of us returned to the manor house..
Seeing us like this, the citizens of Crossroads were either puzzled or went into their homes and came out with spare flags and waved them or sang marching songs. What is this?.
“Oh oh! what! Why are you doing something fun without me??”
As we got closer to the manor house, Evangeline, holding out the flag of the County of Crossroads, came out in a huff..
“Please include me too!”
In front of the manor house, the four members of my party were waving their respective flags and laughing..
Looking at this, I held my aching forehead. No, I mean, that…….
“……no. done.”
If you're happy, it's okay. Ugh.
“Come on, guys! That's enough! Let's go into the dungeon!”
As I spoke with the feeling of a high school student going on a practicum, the party members gathered in front of me, saying yes. Still, I'm glad you heard me well..
Today, I am going out with only 5 people from the main party..
It's been a while since I've seen such a simple composition, so I feel somewhat nostalgic. These days, I've been leading multiple parties on expeditions..
Damien put down the flag that was fluttering, probably because his arm was starting to hurt, and looked at me and asked..
“Which dungeon are you going to today, prince? Area 7?”
“no. It's been a while today…….”
The party members looked a little surprised by my next words..
“Go to area 1.”

flashing!
With the flash of the teleport gate, we entered the safe zone. When I looked up, I saw a shady hallway littered with drain pipes..
Zone 1. dried up ditch.
This is the first dungeon we visited when we first entered the Lake Kingdom dungeon..
At that time, we arrived at the Lake Kingdom, but the main entrance was blocked, so we had to enter the kingdom through this dried up drain..
‘It's already been almost a year…….’
time flies by.
Still, we have all grown unrecognizably compared to our early days. I looked back at the party members for a moment..
Junior, who used to vomit blood on bad days, has now become a healthy girl in his own way..
Evangeline, whose blades were sharp like a hedgehog at first, became round and round like a fat hamster (I think she really gained weight).).
Damian, who always had a somewhat gloomy glow, overcame his true darkening and became much brighter..
And Lucas…….
“…….”
“Why are you doing this, my lord??”
Tin-became a knight…….
No, I think the other kids have all evolved in a good direction. Why do you feel like you're riding the Dark Evolution Tree alone? Where did it go wrong?.
Although all of the main party members had bad tastes at one point, they eventually changed in a positive direction..
Lucas, I believe this guy’s condition will get better eventually..
Anyway, now that you are in the dungeon, you need to prepare for battle. Each party member began checking their equipment..
Evangeline approached Lucas, who was adjusting his helmet, and tilted his head..
“Come to think of it, why are you using that??”
“Because I don’t want to see you.”
“……What are you talking about??”
Evangeline tilted her head to the other side and said, Yay! He jumped up and playfully hit Lucas' helmet..
Kaang-!
A cool sound rang out. It sounds like a cymbal.
“Ooooh, it's loud!”
Evangeline shouted excitedly, and although Lucas couldn't see his face, he shook his shoulders as if he was annoyed..
However, when the party members gathered in one place using the sound of the helmet(?) as a signal, they couldn't bear to get angry and just took a deep breath..
‘Good job, Evangeline!’
I secretly cheered for Evangeline. You keep being so picky and make Lucas take off his helmet.!
“ruler! My visit to Area 1 today is to test the new technology I have acquired..”
I said, looking back at the party members who had finished servicing their equipment..
“Since my new technology seemed to have an effect on the state of the dungeon, I deliberately visited the weakest dungeon. First, we will quickly eliminate the monsters and then begin testing the new technology..”
“yes!”
“Okay, let's go!”
My party members took the lead and entered the dungeon..
Somehow, they're still waving the flags they brought from Crossroads, but after all, it's a District 1 dungeon..
If you are at our level, you will be able to clear it with your bare hands without exaggeration..
“What is this season’s monster?!”
I shouted as I left the safe zone and entered the dungeon. Are they guys this time?!
Wow!-!
As soon as we entered the dungeon room, monsters fell from the sky with hideous screams and spouting feathers..
A large bird's body and a human-like face. And a monster with a blunt, shovel-like beak..
Junior, who was the first to notice the monster's species, shouted.
“This is Harpy.!”
I clicked my tongue. Yes, it's almost time for flying monsters to appear.!
The Harpy is an ordinary monster with no special characteristics compared to other flying monsters, but there is one thing that is annoying and annoying. That's right.
Wow!-!
It's noisy!
It's not that they aren't, they actually use sonic attacks using cries..
If you hit it wrong, it is a very annoying condition that causes people to complain of dizziness or dizziness..
A dozen harpies swarmed in, emitting caw noise pollution in the air..
When this attack came while I was unprepared, I instantly felt dizzy. I covered my ears and stumbled..
“hey! Stop making bird barking noises!”
Faster than my words could fall, my party members' attacks were causing the harpies to fall..
Taang! taang-!
Damian took out his pistol-type horse gun [Cerberus] and fired lightly.,
Pachichichik!
Junior created a small chain of lightning and burned the remaining harpies..
In a matter of seconds, a dozen harpies fell to the ground, fluttering their feathers..
Evangeline, who was holding a spear and trying to throw it, and Lucas, who was trying to gather sword energy at the tip of his sword and throw it away, looked puzzled and withdrew his attack..
“I'm having a hard time getting used to it because I suddenly encounter a monster that's so weak.…….”
Junior muttered as he looked at the harpies who had been charred by the lightning he had struck..
Well, it's worth it. It's like conquering a deep demon world in area 6 or higher, and then suddenly you come to a beginner's dungeon and fight squirrels..
I complained, pressing my hand to my tingling ear..
“Aside from these guys being weak, my ears hurt…….”
Heroes may be able to withstand their sonic attacks with great force, but ordinary soldiers may suffer hearing damage..
I need to prepare earplugs this season..
My ears hurt, but I was able to conquer the dungeon easily..
1The monsters in the area were weak enough to be defeated by a single hit from our main party, so it took less than 30 minutes to fully clear the dungeon..
Once the cleaning was complete, I received the flag from Lucas..
It was finally time to test my ultimate skill, [Declare Imperial Decree]..
[Proclamation of Imperial Decree]
- Declare the area as the territory of the user's faction and exercise control over it..
- To allies within the territory: Applies all beneficial effects the user has..
- To enemies inside the territory: Applies all harmful effects the user has..
- The limit on the number of summons inside the territory is removed..
- If the area declared as territory is a hostile area, the area enters an [occupation war] state, and if you win, you can take control of the area..
I understand the effect of all the other things, but the last line was the problem..
When used in a hostile area, an occupation war begins. Upon victory, take control of the area..
So does this mean that if you use this skill in the dungeon here, you can take the dungeon away from the monsters??
The only way to do this is to test it in practice. I took a deep breath and lifted the flagpole up. Okay, let's do it.!
“……?”
As I was lifting the flagpole, I noticed something strange and looked back..
Then I made eye contact with the party members who followed me and raised their respective flags and kites..
“……what are you doing?”
“……Because it looks fun?”
Evangeline answered, scratching the back of her head. I was dumbfounded and shook my head. Do whatever you want.
I raised the flagpole high.
“This land……”
And, shouting the ultimate starter word, he slammed it into the ground..
“-I declare it a territory of the empire.!”
The flagpole was planted in the ground,
flashing!
With a dazzling flash, the magical energy that escaped from my body covered the entire land - spreading out in a wide circle..
The party members who had imitated me and planted their respective flags on the ground were so shocked that they leaned back..
The party members' flags were not able to stick to the ground, but were pushed out as if bouncing by an intangible force..
Wow!!
My magical power, which had spread out like a storm, was resolved and the air around the area calmed down. At that place.
“……?!”
A circular fortress was built, made of gray magic..
