I Became a Tyrant of the Defense Game - Episode 529
◈ 529. [STAGE 26] Happy Together
I unconsciously smiled at Mikhail who said thank you..
“We must help each other. People fighting together against monsters.”
“I challenged your command. That means I can rebel against you at any time later... … From your perspective, this means that you are an obstacle to the stable command of the front line..”
Mikhail rolled his scarlet eyes and looked at me..
“But you saved me and my knights. I don't know if it's your mercy, or your firm confidence in your command... … Well, either way, I'm a complete loser..”
Unlike the monster that was forced into submission by magic, this boy knight in front of me... … He knew how to bow his head. Acknowledging his own mistakes and the credit of others.
That was a little strange.
“You're surprisingly good at self-objectification.?”
“I tend to reflect after committing something. Because we need to reduce mistakes in the future. The problem is that you can't think before you commit.…….”
Mikhail sighed heavily..
“Of course, in this battle, I went out like a thunderbolt without knowing the subject, but I'm not so bad that I can't even acknowledge the results..”
That recognition is great..
Admit your mistakes and look to the future.
Perhaps this alone proves Mikhail's qualities as a hero..
Mikhail must have felt relieved after he said it once and continued talking..
“Of course, the strength of the monsters that appear here is incomparably stronger than those that appear in our kingdom... … The perfection of the combat doctrine against those monsters is also overwhelming here at the monster front..”
“Thanks for the compliment.”
“Actually, I originally read a report about monsters appearing in the South. But it wasn't this much of a threat. It must have suddenly become like this in the past few years.?”
I didn't answer. Mikhail nodded silently..
“And Prince Ash, you have continued to hold the line against these monsters..”
“It's the same for everyone in their respective positions..”
“There's no need to be humble. You and your troops have done a great job..”
Mikhail scratched his head and placed his hand in front of his chest..
“As the result of the bet, as long as the World Defense Front lasts, the Sky Knights will faithfully carry out your orders..”
“Let me look forward to it.”
“However, I would like to place one more condition..”
I raised my eyebrows. Mikhail nodded his head with a stern expression..
“Send us to the roughest and highest places.”
“Hoo.”
“Although we showed a disgraceful behavior today, if we give proper command, our Sky Knights can fly higher than any other heroes..”
As said, Mikhail and the Sky Knights are already at the level of the first army based on their stats..
What matters is experience. And the right tactics.
If we continue to defeat this many and this strong monsters under appropriate instructions, the Sky Knights will be able to perform better than the other parties under my command..
I chuckled and stretched out my hand..
“Please take care of me in the future. mikhail.”
“Please take care of me too. Prince Ash.”
We held each other's hands and shook hands..
“Okay, that's enough for the reflection meeting! Let's go to the victory banquet!”
I tapped Mikhail on the shoulder and led him down the castle wall..
“Another specialty from our Crossroads! If you win, let's eat, drink and have fun!”
***
Lucas and Evangeline returned safely..
Lucas must have been tired as he had just completed an aerial battle while riding on the backs of monsters, but Lucas calmly cleared the battlefield and reported the results..
What about Evangeline? She immediately rushed to prepare for the banquet. She sings songs like 'Playing is the best~'.
“In this battle... … There were several casualties and several cannons were damaged..”
Lucas glanced at the report and smiled at me..
“Other than that, there is no damage. It was a great battle, my lord..”
“This is the result of everyone doing their job well..”
Not only the existing troops on our front lines, but also the newly joined Sky Knights played the role of bait well..
Because each person did their job properly, we were able to deal with a difficult monster army without much damage..
“Incineration of corpses and recovery of loot have also been completed. This concludes today's work..”
“Let's close the business and get back to work~ Everyone has worked hard, so let's oil up the boat..”
When we finished clearing the battlefield with Lucas and headed to the central square of the city, there was already a drinking party going on..
There had been an awkward and subtle atmosphere between the existing Crossroads troops and the newly joined troops, but after fighting together today and drinking and eating meat, they quickly became closer to each other..
Above all, don't they all have something in common: being soldiers?.
No matter where in the world they are fighting and what enemy they are fighting, the joys and sorrows that soldiers feel are similar..
As they voiced their grievances to each other, the soldiers quickly got along with each other..
and…….
“The shul in Gaesuzhension is so bland.~”
Mikhail had already become a jerk.!
“It's so bland it's like water, water. give me more~”
Mikhail continued to drink, babbling something with his twisted tongue. I freaked out and snatched the glass out of his hand..
“No, aren't you a minor?! What kind of alcohol are you drinking! Go drink some juice!”
“Ah? In Korea, you become an adult at the age of twelve, right? I have five fiancées?”
No, your sister also has five husbands. Why are you taking so many spouses? What happened to the concept of chastity, Vermilion Kingdom?!
Mikhail, who was very drunk, started humming and acting drunk..
One of the Knights of the Sky Knights, who was watching this, broke into a cold sweat and bowed his head to me..
“I'm sorry for showing this in disgrace. The crown prince has a weakness for alcohol.…….”
“Then you have to stop me from drinking it, right?!”
“This time he said it was really okay so I only gave him one drink.…….”
Then Mikhail put his hands on his head and started dancing. The soldiers who saw this started holding their stomachs and laughing..
It's okay, I totally enjoyed it.!
‘Is this also the result of ‘many use’ of negative characteristics?……?’
Suddenly, I started to worry about whether I would be able to control this little boy well in the future. Umm.
“ha ha ha! There's nothing wrong with drinking this much! We, the people of Vermilion Kingdom, have griffon blood flowing through our bodies.!”
Mikhail pounded his chest and shouted..
Evangeline, who was sitting next to me and exchanging glasses of juice with Lucas, asked Mikhail in confusion when did he come back then?.
“So, Gryphon and the people of Vermilion Kingdom are brothers.?”
“That's right! They are like real brothers!”
“But how do you ride a griffon??”
“uh?”
“Are they real brothers? Are you wearing a saddle, tying the reins, and riding with your butt down? How is that? They are real brothers?”
“uh……?”
Mikhail looked blankly at his griffon tied up right behind him and opened his mouth slightly..
“……That's what I heard?”
As if he understood what I was saying, the gryphon also opened its eyes and opened its beak wide, looking at me with a shocked expression on its face..
Mikhail suddenly burst into tears and hugged the griffon's neck..
“I'm sorry, little brother, I'm sorry! From now on you will ride me……!”
He clung to the griffon for a while longer and cried quietly, and soon after, he fell asleep in that same state.…….
The knights of the Sky Knights picked up the crown prince and returned to their quarters. Evangeline clicked her tongue as she looked in that direction..
“I didn't see it that way, but the Crown Prince of Vermillion's spirit character was broken.…….”
“you broke it…….”
You made me realize the uncomfortable truth about the relationship between the people of Vermilion Kingdom and Gryphons. you are the culprit.
Anyway, Mikhail, whose taste was gone, went to his lodgings, but had a long chat with the remaining Knights of the Sky and exchanged more drinks..
Then, before I knew it, the heroes under my command were sitting around me, chatting noisily as usual. I suddenly looked around at those subordinates..
Junior took care of the young wizards under his command like younger brothers and fed them food, while Damian sat around with the priests and sighed, saying it was fortunate that there were not many injuries today..
Kuilan and Yun, Thorkell and Nobody, etc... … The vanguard heroes who participated in close combat today competed with each other to see who was more active today..
As expected, the elves of Verdandi, the Holy Grail Exploration Team, Burnout, and Body Bag are filling each other with nut snacks and mead and stuffing them into each other's mouths..
…….
finally.
When Lily appeared with the baby Sid in her arms, the square went into a frenzy..
Male mercenaries with thick beards were shaking their hands and feet, saying that Sid was cute, and female mercenaries were yelling for him to kiss his aunt just once. You all are a little scary.…….
“The last party was good too, but.”
A little far away from this crazy banquet. Dusk Bringer, who was quietly drinking next to me, let out a chuckle..
“After all, drinking alcohol with soldiers like this is even better..”
“…….”
I smiled and held out my glass. We quietly clinked our glasses and toasted each other..
It was then.
“hmm. Are you having a victory banquet??”
new people appeared.
Wizards dressed in robes riding white horses arrived at the central square, cutting through the crowd..
The old wizard at the head of them lifted his robes and ran his hand across his long beard..
“They said a monster invasion was imminent, so they came in a hurry, riding their horses day and night. Looks like the situation is already over.?”
It was the ivory tower lord and archmage Diarmudin, who had once been a scoundrel at a meeting of kings..
That wasn't all. Following them, knights and warriors wearing various types of armor entered the square one after another..
“What, I arrived just in time for dinner, is it a banquet?!”
“We haven't done anything in particular, but we'll include it.?”
I couldn't tell who was who at a glance, but the soldiers were buzzing around me and reciting their introductions..
“‘It is an ‘ivory tower’.……!”
“It is an assault corps that is said to be the most elite even in the nomadic tribe ‘Mirage’.!”
“That red beret... … Is he the ‘Red Beret’, the strongest man in the jungle?!”
“The dwarf army also came!”
“That's the elf queen and the royal guard……?!”
“Are other races also joining in earnest?!”
“All the world's most prestigious warriors are gathering here.?”
Since all the new troops were from each region, they took up positions in various parts of the square, fighting with the existing troops..
The leaders of each armed group approached the place where I was drinking with grim faces..
As I looked at that face, I sighed softly..
Wow, after I finally got rid of this troublesome guy, more people started pouring in one after another..
‘Well, that's good. Everyone come in.’
I will discipline them one by one and make them all my subordinates.!
“Now, monsters, tell them to come in as many times as they want.!”
After handing new glasses to the newcomers.
Announcing the start of the second part of the banquet, I raised the glass in my hand upward. and shouted.
“If we all work together, we can crush those monsters like we did today.!”
Oh oh oh-!
Heroes and soldiers alike smiled brightly and raised their respective glasses. Newcomers also began to blend into the banquet, exchanging greetings with each other..
We had fun laughing, chatting, drinking and talking all night long..
As if the world would never end. like that.
***
……I didn't know at the time.
This battle will be the last battle without any casualties..
This was the last moment when everyone on the World Defense Front could laugh and be happy together..
At this time, we had no idea.
