Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 514
◈ 514. [Side Story] Surprise Party
“What is the strategy you instructed those gambling club members to use? Which of the two White Nights will you choose, and how will you defeat them??”
Lucas asked cautiously..
“There is one week left until the next defense. Shouldn't you give us instructions soon? What kind of operation is this??”
I grinned..
Now that the preparations are roughly in place, I plan to share with all my subordinates the strategy we will take in this defensive battle..
Before that, I spoke quietly in the ears of Lucas, who was curious..
“Okay, I'll just tell you first, Lucas... … It's a 'party'.”
Lucas blinked his innocent eyes like a large dog..
“……yes?”
“It's a party, a party. A strategy to deal with the midnight sun. It's a party.”
Lucas looked like he didn't understand what the hell was going on..
I smiled happily and said the name of this operation..
“Operation Surprise Party! In this defense, we're having a surprise party instead of a battle.!”
“……Uh, so.”
Lucas, who was desperately trying to interpret what I meant while rolling his eyes, asked cautiously:.
“Are you referring to the operation to launch a surprise attack on the monster army as a metaphor for a surprise party?……?”
“no? I'm going to throw a real party?”
“……?”
Lucas looked like he was saying something crazy, but immediately shook his shoulders in shock..
okay. I guess I finally realized it again..
That I've always been through this war like a madman……!

8area. Magic Tower.
As I entered, the midnight sun of the electric world appeared on the magic panel - Soya was disgusted..
《What did you come to ask for again this time?! There are no clearable dungeons in the area anymore.!》
“Hey, you're talking harshly. If anyone hears it, they'll think I've been asking you for an unreasonable favor.?”
Even though I tried to get rid of his bones (no bones), isn't it too much to hate him so much as soon as I see his face? Our relationship is still a partnership?
Now I'm very good at sticking my butt on the sofa in front of the monitor and doing chin gestures..
“Shoot… … No, hehe! white night.”
I called him by his name at Crossroads, then hastily corrected him and smiled..
“Let's do something together with me.”
《You've already done a lot... … What is it this time??》
“I made a plan to kill you again. This is a way to trap him and eliminate him. All other requirements for this operation are ready, but one thing is still missing..”
I frowned..
《That's me?》
“okay.”
I crossed my legs and raised the corners of my mouth..
“Hey, white night.”
《why.》
“You, just pretend to be dead..”
《……what?》
The face of the skeleton on the screen became strange..
《pretend to be dead?》
“okay. It's to deceive someone else. It would be better if you acted really well rather than just pretending to be dead..”
《What do you mean by proper acting??》
I told Soya ‘to what extent’ he should pretend to be dead. Then Soya's face became perplexed..
《Hey, don't be crazy. I've cooperated with all your crazy demands, but now this is absolutely ridiculous.!》
“Why doesn't it make sense? To deceive the enemy, you must first deceive your allies. Let’s try method acting very properly.?”
《Don't talk nonsense, Ash! There is a limit to what I can tolerate too-》
“Hey, we worked so hard to kill another one of you, right? Then you have to do it right until the end.?”
I fired back, starting to grease my tongue in earnest..
“I and everyone on our front lines worked hard to completely and cleanly eliminate you. Just for you! But you're going to stop here because this last effort is too cumbersome.?”
《Because both interests were aligned.…….》
“no! To put it bluntly, we can stick to someone else instead of you. There are so many benefits he can provide! Nevertheless, the reason I am by your side is to keep my faith with you. faith!”
I banged on the table and argued..
“But are you planning to break your trust with me?! Was our relationship really that shallow? This is disappointing. Then I too can go there now…….”
《Wait, wait! Don't sleep! Okay, okay, so!》
As if he was tired of my gaslighting, Soya let out a long sigh and stared at me intently..
《……Explain. Why do I have to pretend to be dead like this? And through that, how are you going to kill the other me?.》
I grinned. It's all over.
This clears all conditions.
All preparations for the start of Operation Surprise Party are complete..
***
a few days later.
8area. grand theater.
《…….》
Gangsi wearing a crown and robe, Baekya, the corps commander.
Heukya, the name called at Crossroads, was lost in thought. She was reminiscing about something from quite a long time ago..
- Dream of ascension, wizard! Gain godhood and ascend to the constellation.!
Godhead).
It was the name of the qualification necessary to stand on the same level as those foreign media..
and… … The person he was now was in a state where he could not attain godhood..
‘To attain godhood, you must be unique..’
Otherwise, it cannot be enshrined in the constellation where the gods sit..
However, as a cloned being, Byakuya was unable to attain godhood as is..
‘To be the only one, I have to kill my other self.’
In any case, we are destined to fight and kill our other selves. One of them must disappear from this world.
When he found out about this fact, Heukya made up his mind..
I decided to kill my other self for sure.
And he also decided to kill the demon king who took him away. Decided to kill the Demon King and usurp his godhood.
Because that is the easiest and surest way for her to attain godhood..
‘By killing the other me, I secure my uniqueness, and by killing the devil, I take away my godhood. And rise to the same level as those foreign media.’
This became the purpose of the dark night..
Heukya continued his research to reach foreign media..
Because I had the power of another world given to me by the Demon King, I was able to use that power and reach up - I was able to contact a foreign body..
The foreign media was amused by the ant's 'rebellion' and were willing to lend their support. This was the identity of the giant eye that the dark night was using with its power..
and… … A boring life continued.
The two separated White Nights continued to clash in an attempt to kill each other, but failed each time. They knew each other too well to kill each other..
After this endless antagonism, time just passed by helplessly... … Ash suddenly appeared.
If Ash had killed seven nightmare corps commanders, he would be able to kill others as well. So I approached him and tried to persuade him..
‘Damn you… … Just using me…….’
The next invasion was just around the corner, but in the meantime, Ash was only using the dark night for his own purposes. He seemed to have no intention of carrying out another request to kill himself..
I was foolish for even thinking of a brief alliance with Ash..
‘If you come out like this, I can't help it..’
Heukya bit his lower lip gently..
Ash and his forces will be burned to the ground in the Royal Invasion that will take place in a few days..
All I had to do was think of a new way to kill myself, but I couldn't forgive the person who mocked me..
It was a time when the dark night quietly burned its anger..
Kugugugugugugugung!
Suddenly, the entire area of 8 shook violently..
I've lived here for a long time, but this was my first time seeing something like this. Heukya was frightened and stood up from his seat..
《what?!》
Kugoogung, Kugugoogung…….
The ground, which had been shaking as if an earthquake had struck, soon calmed down. Heukya wiped away a cold sweat. What the hell is going on??
After some time after the vibration completely stopped,.
bang-!
The door to the main theater was opened and someone came inside..
“white night!”
The one who entered the nightmare corps leader's quarters with a bright smile and no fear was none other than Ash..
As if he knew that the Magic Emperor was angry at him just a moment ago, Ash smiled brightly and flew towards the dark night..
“I did it, I did it!”
《what? What did you accomplish??》
Ash grinned and motioned to the outside to see Heukya who didn't know what to say..
“I kept my promise!”
《If it's a promise……?》
“As you wish! I killed another you!”
《……?!》
Hurry up and go out and see, it was really true..
Boom, coo goo goong…….
The magic tower seen in the distance was engulfed in flames and collapsing..
8It was the Magic Tower that boasted the strongest defense not only in the area but also in all the facilities in the deep part of the Lake Kingdom dungeon. The place collapsed completely..
《Then the vibration from a little while ago……?》
“that's right. It's me! It was the aftermath of blowing up that magic tower.!”
Heukya stammered while facing Ash, who shrugged his shoulders and looked smug..
《How on earth... … ? Even I can't break through that defense.……?》
“haha! That's right, I gave him a huge slap in the back of the head. The owner of that magic tower trusted me a lot..”
Ash briefly explained how he tricked the magic tower lord, crossed the firewall, planted a bomb inside, neutralized the magic defense, and collapsed the central pillar..
Heukya was just amazed as he looked at the collapsed magic tower..
If the magic tower was damaged to this extent, the other person whose consciousness was uploaded into the magic tower's mechanical system would also never be safe..
“I blew it up cleanly, but you never know. You can search thoroughly and burn..”
《Let's do that.》
The external defense system, which was the core of the attack on the Magic Tower, collapsed completely, so even if the other self was still alive, it was enough to defeat him in the dark night..
Heukya, who had achieved one of his lifelong dreams, looked even moved. Ash shrugged her shoulders triumphantly..
“Did you say it? I am a person who keeps my promises.”
《ash…….》
“I haven't been able to tell you all this time because I've been carrying out the operation secretly, but what do you think? Now you can trust me?”
Heukya nodded loudly..
《I'm sorry for doubting you all this time..》
“You also doubted it?”
《Honestly, it was worth it. Look back at what you've done…….》
“I admit it. It must have been unreliable. But you did it in the end?”
Ash chuckled and held out his hand..
“So now we're allies?”
《……Of course. ash.》
Heukya reached out his hand and held Ash's hand..
The hands of the human and the jiangshi held each other and shook firmly up and down..
《I and the Lich Legion will become your allies and cooperate until the day we defeat the Demon King..》
“It's really reassuring. Oh, then they won't invade our side on this invasion day.?”
《of course. There is no reason to point a sword at our allies, right?.》
Grinning.
A long line formed at the corner of Ash's mouth..
“Then, instead of an invasion, can you come visit for a bit??”
《……what?》
For a moment, Heukya, unable to understand Ash's words, blinked blankly. Ash grinned and took something out of his pocket..
“Now take it.”
《This……?》
“It's an invitation!”
Smiling innocently as if a child was inviting a birthday party, Ash handed over an invitation made of luxurious material..
“The scheduled date for the next defense battle is actually exactly two years since I took office in this city.!”
《uh… … so?》
“In addition, there will be a party to welcome new allies who have joined the alliance. Won't you attend and grace the occasion??”
The dark night’s mouth opened small..
As the situation unfolded beyond common sense, my thoughts hardened..
《Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute, Ash. In case you forgot, I am a monster..》
“huh?”
Ash tilted his head with innocent eyes shining..
“however?”
《Are you going to let me into your city like this? Are you crazy right now??》
“What does being a monster have to do with it? After all, we are allies now, right? We are colleagues of the World Defense Front, standing shoulder to shoulder together, defeating the Demon King and saving the world together.!”
Ash flashed a pure white smile and thrust the invitation forward again..
“So, come on! Don't hesitate and come play too!”
《…….》
Ash's invitation was held tightly in the hands of a dark night sweating profusely..
The corner of Ash's mouth, which had been shining pure white, curled into a smirk without anyone noticing..
“Let's be real friends, Baekya!”
