The best territory designer ever - Episode 228
228fury. With Zhen: Hell (1)
“Please let me take that guy with me..”
Hehehe.
the wind blew.
Lloyd's fingertip pointed at Javiel..
Javiel's ears twitched slightly..
The silver-haired knight thought.
hell?
together?
Let's go?
‘If Lloyd made that decision, I was willing to follow it..’
A video of the dragon that suddenly appeared earlier..
Lloyd negotiating with video.
I was thinking about it while listening to that conversation..
If Lloyd decides to help that dragon's soul.
So if you're willing to make the decision to go to hell.
He said he would be with Lloyd too..
We will go through the hardships of hell together.
That's how I made a promise to myself and made up my mind..
But now I see it?
‘It's embarrassing.’
A sudden feeling of skepticism welled up..
I knew that the master I served was originally petty and mean, but I never thought he would be like this..
How can you attract people like this without even consulting them?.
‘Phew.’
Javiel's gaze towards Lloyd became flounder-eyed..
But Lloyd?
I didn't mind at all.
Instead, he grinned at Javiel..
That shameless smile seemed to say.
‘So, you're not going? Are you going to send me alone? Wow, our Habiel. 'I didn't see it that way.'.
“…….”
let's not talk.
Javiel felt confused to the very roots of his soul..
I nodded with a half-resigned look..
A big smile bloomed on Lloyd's face..
“Yes, it looks like that guy also agrees. Then, me and that guy, we're going to hell to help you. Instead of-”
Lloyd’s shameless words continued..
“Can you more clearly guarantee that you will repay our help?.”
- guarantee?
“Yes, warranty.”
The ancient dragon Entichus tilted his head..
The smile at the corner of Lloyd's mouth became more meaningful..
“This is a world where guarantees come and go even when lending or receiving small amounts of money. What's more, if you take risks and go to hell to help, wouldn't you be able to trust and act only if you have a guarantee of return??”
- But I made a promise.
“It's difficult to make promises only with your mouth..”
- Are you saying we should write a contract, then??
“No, I don't think a contract would be of much use in this case..”
Lloyd shook his head..
It's true.
A video that isn't even me.
Even if I wrote a video letter and a contract left by a soul that fell into hell, it wouldn't be effective..
In fact, even if the terms of the contract were violated, the dragon's soul would not suffer any loss..
So, for sure, that soul has to risk something that will cost him a lot of money..
Only then will it be properly guaranteed..
You can trust the promise.
Lloyd said, thinking so..
“Let's take a soul's oath.”
- ……what?
“This means that if you make a promise, you should properly guarantee it with an oath of your soul..”
- what is that…….
Video of the ancient dragon Entichus was visibly disconcerting.
The corner of Lloyd's mouth slightly curled up as he saw that..
‘also.’
soul oath.
I thought it was a good idea to mention that..
‘Because that oath isn't just something you say with your mouth..’
humans don't know.
Only among dragons.
It was an oath to risk one's life only once in one's life to do the most important things..
‘So, if you break that oath, the mortgaged soul will be destroyed. forever. There is no turning back. Existence itself disappears from this world forever..’
To put it bluntly, it's like a cassock bread that you risk your soul for..
It must have been because of such a request..
- Man, how do you know the soul's oath??
The ancient dragon Enticus's eyes became serious as he asked the question..
But Lloyd laid the iron plate even more shamelessly..
I know this because I read the novel Iron Blood Knight..
“Isn't that important now??”
- that…….
“Do you swear or promise? Just answer that..”
- …….
“I can't move without this level of certainty..”
Lloyd said sharply..
That was also honest and sincere..
Benefits of using the Bone Dragon forever.
Wealth that will never run out and another life.
Even if there was a Dragon King sponsorship membership that boasts such enormous benefits, it was the same..
It was like going to hell..
No matter how many safety devices there are.
Even if you are given a Hell Gate for escape.
It wouldn't be without risk at all..
Therefore, Lloyd was firmly determined not to move unless there was a clear guarantee proportional to the risk..
The ancient dragon Entikus sighed deeply..
- Phew. Do you really want that oath??
“Of course.”
- Won indeed. Who would have thought that after death he would share his soul's vows, which he did not even make during his lifetime, with humans?…….
“If you don't like it, don't do it, then.”
- Now, wait a minute!
“Do you have anything to say??”
- Of course there is. I didn't say I wouldn't take that oath.
“Are you currently criticizing me for being too hasty??”
- Of course not.
“sure?”
Staring eyes.
If you're going to do it, do it. If you don't, don't do it..
The confident and shameless attitude that this side has nothing to lose anyway.
In the end, the ancient dragon Enticus raised the white flag..
- would.
“Are you sure??”
- I already said I would do it, so my oath was fulfilled..
“great.”
Lloyd was satisfied..
As expected, it is the same as I saw while reading the novel Iron Blood Knight..
The characteristic of the soul's oath was that it was carried out the moment it said it would do so..
Like memorizing strange spells.
Light and magic circles flash.
There was no grand process that anyone would think of..
An oath is literally an oath.
A promise is literally a promise.
Because the moment you say you'll do it, you'll do it.
That was it.
So I was more scared.
I will do it, just one word.
This is because the moment you break that promise, your soul is deleted..
Thanks to this, Lloyd was able to completely believe in the oath uttered by the ancient dragon Enticus..
Warmth appeared in Entikus' eyes towards us..
- thanks. for helping me.
“It was nothing. Please keep your promises..”
- of course. If my soul is saved with your help, I will definitely keep my oath and make the Dragon King Berkis your patron. So come on, I'll open the way to hell.
Patzczk!
The moment Entikus finished speaking.
Sparks flew in the air..
Like a portal.
A crackling circle with a diameter of 2 meters appeared in the air..
Inside the circle, I caught a glimpse of the bloody sight of a volcano spewing out black smoke..
A hot and acrid wind blew, making my skin tingle..
- Now, the Hell Gate has been opened. Hell is on the other side.
“…….”
- It's quite hot over there, so be careful. Be careful of the Satans roaming throughout hell. They are a group of people who always get pleasure from deceiving and corrupting good souls..
“So, where in hell has your soul fallen??”
- I do not know.
“…….”
- But maybe the King of Hell is holding my soul.
“Whoa.”
After hearing the explanation up to that point, Lloyd took a deep breath..
Is this really true?.
It was a face to face with the king of hell who was not even there..
Even when I saw Hell Gate open in front of me, it didn't feel real..
But the decision has already been made.
I also received Anticus' oath..
So, if I succeed in this,?
‘You can receive support from Dragon King Berkis..’
A minion named Bone Dragon.
Wealth that will never run out in a lifetime.
And another life.
In addition to that…….
“Lloyd Frontera. Are you finally trying to escape the shadow of burden like this?.”
I made eye contact with King Alicia..
The king who has been by his side and has seen and heard all of the conversation between Entikus and us so far..
Therefore, the king must understand to some extent the intention of this party in accepting Entikus' request..
She let out a self-deprecating laugh.
Lloyd bowed his head politely to show respect..
“That's not it, Your Highness..”
“if?”
“No matter how much I receive the support of the Dragon King, I will never run away from your shadow..”
“Does this mean that you will remain my subject until the end??”
“That's right.”
“But he won't be willing to do the work that Jim entrusts him with..”
“that…….”
“I already know the burden..”
King Alicia's bitter smile deepened..
“It is a burden that we have all experienced and witnessed today's events together. But how can you think I don't know?.”
“…….”
“Sir Asrahan, who serves your family, has finally completely escaped the status of a sword master. There is no way to confirm whether the appearance shown by Sir Asrahan earlier is the stage of the Grand Master, which is the level of imagination, but at least it is certain that no amount of troops I have can easily stop it..”
“majesty.”
“And you just got Bone Dragon under your command, I guess.?”
“That's right.”
“A knight who escaped the sword master. Obedient bone dragon. With these two alone, it can be said that your family's power has already surpassed that of my royal family..”
“I apologize..”
“Can I stop apologizing now?.”
“No, Your Majesty. I would like to continue to apologize..”
Lloyd quickly lowered his head..
And he revealed his honest feelings..
“I have told you this before, but my dream is to spend the rest of my life in a normal and peaceful way on my territory..”
“I know.”
“yes, so it comes.”
Lloyd continued..
“I have no interest in conquest or success. I just want to relax and live a leisurely life. That's why I still need your shadow..”
It was really.
It was honestly sincere..
Javiel becomes Grand Master.
The Bone Dragon is completely obedient to us..
It was true that those two alone had the power to overthrow the Magentano royal family..
No, if you really decide, you can wage a war of conquest against every country on this continent..
But I didn't want to do that..
‘why do i do that?’
Even if you don’t do that, you can eat well and live well..
You can live happily in a leisurely estate that supports you..
Are you struggling with rent or exam fees next month?.
Are you worried about the reasonable transportation costs?.
The unpaid wages are flashing before my eyes..
You can escape that painful life forever..
‘But a war of conquest? king? There's no reason to do that?’
I don't even want to do that..
If you did something like that for no reason?
It was certain that he would take on the bomb himself..
You will also be saying goodbye to the life of a building owner where you can leisurely lounge around..
‘That's not allowed.’
So you shouldn't make a big deal out of it..
We must remain as subjects of King Alicia, who is friendly to us..
All you have to do is drink honey under her strong umbrella..
That's why.
‘To do this, we need the King's sister's cooperation..’
Lloyd quickly gathered his thoughts and lowered his head..
Cool calculation and honest sincerity.
Both were reported to the king..
“So, Your Highness, I will not reveal to the outside world Lord Asrahan's new level and the identity of the Bone Dragon. Instead, I only hope that Your Highness will treat me like a lazy servant..”
“As a lazy servant?”
“That's right.”
“This means that while I will remain nominally your subject, I will refuse to do any work entrusted to you..”
“That's not it, Your Highness..”
“if?”
“Isn’t there a lot of favor and support I have received from Your Highness so far? I am a person who does not forget someone's kindness as much as I do not forget my grudges..”
“really?”
“yes.”
“really?”
“yes.”
“Hmm. indeed?”
“…….”
“Anyway, what I'm saying is that I'll leave room for Jim's request to be accepted as a favor depending on the situation. With your favor. Is Jim's understanding correct??”
“That's right, Your Majesty..”
“Tsk. You are really smart and arrogant, but you are not obnoxious, so it's a big deal..”
King Alicia stuck her tongue..
I couldn't help it..
Lloyd's meaning was clearly felt..
Even though I have great power, I just want to live a leisurely life..
He was seeking cooperation from the royal family for his future hope(?).
‘but. It's better if it's done this way.’
She thought.
If, really, if.
The Lloyd family, the Frontera family.
If you decide to revolt?
Will he and the royal family be able to suppress it?.
‘no.’
She concluded clearly.
impossible.
The Bone Dragon alone would already require the entire royal army to be mobilized..
However, if Sir Asurahan, who is not a sword master, joins in,?
It will be impossible to avoid the destruction of the command staff..
The command system will collapse as is..
No matter how many troops remain.
In the end, you will lose your focus and disperse..
In this way, the kingdom's army will collapse and the royal family will fall..
‘…….’
It was only for a moment, but I got goosebumps.
That's why.
King Alicia laughed..
Lloyd Frontera salutes in front of you.
I was rather grateful for his offer to remain as his subject..
“good night. I accept your request..”
“Seong-eun is devastated..”
The King nodded..
Lloyd lay face down..
A satisfied smile appeared on his lips..
‘Work exemption, I finally got it.’
My shoulders are shaking with excitement.
If I didn't have eyes to see, I wanted to go somewhere and cheer and dance hula..
‘After all, she is the King’s sister. I believed it.’
A ruler with great courage and courage.
A fair lion-like being.
He was the one who believed in the King's character..
He was also the one who made the request with that faith..
It worked..
‘thank god. If he had been a slightly petty monarch, this request would not have worked at all..’
A single subject's family had a power that far surpassed that of the royal family..
That alone would make a decent monarch so anxious that he wouldn't even be able to sleep..
Even if you laugh in front of me saying it’s okay.
From now on, we will only be thinking about assassinating or destroying this side..
But King Alicia?
‘I don't do that. Rather, they will use this as an opportunity to further strengthen their royal authority..’
Of course, on the one hand, we will struggle to come up with a mechanism to check this side's dominance..
Just don't conflict with each other.
Just acknowledge each other's existence.
You just have to choose coexistence like that..
It was to force that choice..
In front of the king, he expressed his intention to join the Dragon King sponsorship membership(?).
He declared that he would have someone worse than the king on his back..
In that state, it was proposed to the king.
I won't go on a rampage.
I will respect the king.
I will live quietly and peacefully.
So please don't touch this place..
That was the essence of Lloyd's proposal just now..
And King Alicia immediately understood the essence of the proposal and volunteered to be our partner..
After completing a satisfactory transaction(?) with the King, Lloyd stood up..
I looked at the Hell Gate that opened in front of me..
“Whoa.”
Inside Hell Gate, a glimpse of volcanic ash and lava can be seen through the thick smoke..
When I saw that scene, it finally felt a little real..
To become a Dragon King sponsorship membership member.
The wealth that will continue to flow endlessly.
Unlimited Bone Dragon ticket service.
Even another life that will allow you to enjoy it to the fullest..
To get all those benefits.
Now, it was time to go to hell..
And at the same moment.
All the devils in Hell sensed Lloyd's gaze looking at the Hell Gate. She lifted her head. I held onto the pounding 2nd atrium and 2nd ventricle. The same praise came to mind..
‘what? Master singer Frontera, possessor of devilish pitch, is said to be coming here personally.?’
