Chapter 279 – Internal Affairs #4
“Well done, Neckri! Very well done!”
Haha… Yes. Thank you.”
“You played the flute very well! How can you play the goura so well!”
“I just did what I was taught, what?”
Neckri laughed while scratching the back of his head as if embarrassed.
As expected, Jjambab, the leader of the Dark Elves, doesn’t go anywhere. Neckri captivated the hearts of humans by performing excellent flute tricks.
Hehe, everyone really liked it.”
In fact, the flute was just a phrase. The neckri only blew moderately as I told you, and the monsters just moved as they were trained.
But in the eyes of humans, it seemed like a feat.
A feat of the mysterious Dark Elves who control monsters with flutes. Even if I were a human, I would have been amazed at the scene where the monsters possessed by the flutes move in moderation.
Well, with this, the suspicion about the monster was roughly resolved. The mysterious performance completely captured people’s hearts. Now, it wouldn’t be too strange if the Dark Elves dragged monsters around.
A certain degree of restraint is necessary, but in this way, ‘naturalness’ is built up.
“So, are you marching tomorrow?”
“Yes. Tomorrow, too. Just put on those clothes and move while blowing the flute. After all, they’re good at marching, so they’ll do well on their own.”
“That’s right. Marching as a group. I’m looking forward to it.”
“As you march, take a good look around you. That way, you have to blend into the city so you can act freely.”
“Whoops, I get it.”
I can see that you look happy. The Dark Elves were also enjoying themselves in the larger world.
Then, how about preparing for the march tomorrow?
I immediately went to the goblin dormitory in search of Buril.
“Hey! Burir!”
“Mjoongnim?! Kerurung!”
The beak, who was lying on the bed eating baguette and scratching his stomach, jumped up when he saw me. The other goblins next to them also put aside their intaglios and stood up.
“Hey. Do what you’ve been doing. Only those who are employed come to work.”
“Yes!
Hehe, caller. Are you good at acting as children? Humans have been fooled all over the place.”
“Keruk Keruk. It’s natural. It was a very easy task for us goblins!”
A very confident screamer.
“Keruk! That’s right!”
Other goblins say the same.
“By the way, Master. It’s strange. To think that humans shout like that while watching us. Keruk. It’s a bit strange to think that people who aren’t special are like that.”
Hehe, is that so?”
Did you feel something when you saw the friendly gaze of humans?
“Anyway, I’m going to march tomorrow. Can you do it well?”
“Keruk! Isn’t it just a matter of just marching through the city and looking at it? You can do it well! And I’m looking forward to it! I’ve been curious about the cities of humans, but now I can see them openly!”
“Yes. This is the march we are going to do. Go around and look around you. You should see what the human city is like.”
“Kerulung!”
I was just very excited.
“But why do these bastards love Ohmok?”
“Damn. This is so funny. Keruk.”
“It’s fun because you always win! Keruk!”
“That’s right! Our intelligence is a bit low, so we can’t win! Keruk!”
At Buril’s words, the goblins roar. Apparently, because he has the highest intelligence, he applies to other children.
“Keruk Keruk. Do more concave. You guys need brain development.”
“Keruk!”
Because I really like board games.
“Hey. Do you guys want to play chess too?”
“Is it chess?”
There are similarities to chess, but no game identical to earth chess. Whatever the circumstances, let’s make a chess game and spread it.
* * *
Next day.
We conducted a march.
Of course, not everyone did it. The lamia, who felt a bit shocked because their lower bodies were snakes, waited in the castle. Because you shouldn’t show too many at once, about 50% of each monster’s troops are also waiting in the castle.
But the angels and pixies all participated.
ㅡPipririril.
Anyway, Neckri blew the flute.
ㅡChuck and chuck.
ㅡChuck and chuck.
ㅡChuck and chuck.
My soldiers followed Neckri in unison. Dark elves and angels followed behind those monster soldiers.
ㅡBooooong!
Pixies were flying in the sky.
“Kerukkereuk.”
“Kerulung.”
Everyone is looking around the city as if they are curious. Sharan and Rumika on either side of me turned their heads with their hoods on.
“Char. Maang. There are many humans.”
“Yeah… As expected. It’s different from what I saw through the window. A city surrounded by stones like this. It’s so amazing.”
“Char.”
“How about it? Compared to the jungle?”
“It’s not bad.”
“Yeah. I’m fine too. A place like this isn’t bad either.”
It is generally well received.
It was good that you came.
Why are you marching like that?
“Oh oh…!”
“Oh my gosh!”
“It’s like a fairy tale!”
Onlookers flocked like clouds. Everyone is standing at a distance and watching the march of these monster soldiers.
Well, of course, my soldiers were unarmed. Just wearing a t-shirt and shorts. It must have looked very cute, and the kids everywhere were liking it.
ㅡ Booung!
“Kyahahahaha!”
“Hurray!”
In the meantime, the pixies are laughing happily in the sky, but of course the tension is up.
Right then.
“Wow! Those older sisters are awesome!”
“I know!”
“Wangjjujjuya!”
Some boys shouted, pointing at the pixies.
Hehe, those guys.”
Those are the guys who are going to be big.
A little laugh comes out
“Huh… The kid is really.”
Reika, who was following behind, also laughed.
“Hmm.”
But is this the heart of the lord? In fact, it was only a matter of stealing the territory, but I felt that all the people laughing there were like my territory. So I love it and cherish it.
Okay. Only when there are people who follow him well can he conquer the world.
“Go strong!”
“Keruk!”
At my cry, Neckri blew the flute a little harder.
Today’s march was a great success.
* * *
Since ancient times, it has been said that monarchs should know how to entertain their own soldiers as well as citizens.
The Roman emperors were like that.
Of course, as society developed, the leaders who entertained the soldiers disappeared, but that’s the point. That you have to win your heart. In order to win their hearts, they need to please them.
“Today! Everyone went out and came back and worked hard! And everyone went out to play, but the guys who waited at home also worked hard!”
ㅡRemember!
He shouts as he raises his glass.
“The ones who are waiting will let you go next time, so just wait for that day! Likewise, Lamia, let’s be patient a little longer! Got it!”
“Keruk!”
“Okay…! Kyaha!”
“Kureuk! It’s fun!”
The congratulations were enough.
“Then eat!”
Ordered to eat immediately.
ㅡKeryaaaaak!
ㅡGyu saaak!
ㅡKurrureuk!
As soon as the order was given, my men began devouring the fried food and bread on the tray. Fried meat coated in egg water and flour was the most delicious food in the world, and bread and cheese were heavenly delicacies.
“Keruk! It’s so delicious!”
“The tempura is the best! Kyaha!”
The lamias also enjoyed eating the tempura. They like greasy fries as they have a lot of energy in the body.
“Cue ah ahhh! It’s so susceptible!”
When I see you eating well, I feel really good. The human cuisine completely captivated the taste buds of my men.
But if you enjoy a dinner like this, you will lose a lot of money. Still, there were quite a lot of accumulated wealth in the baron castle.
“But it’s a necessary expense.”
Can I call it a lord if I can’t throw my soldiers a party? Such good times were to be had regularly.
“Huhuhu, everyone looks happy.”
“My heart is warmed by itself. I’m really starting to feel the word family.”
The saintess and Vanessa said that. It must have been a very beautiful sight for them to see.
Well, the kids haven’t learned table etiquette, so they’re eating a bit gluttonously, but I’ve seen them every day, so it doesn’t matter. Being warm is the most important thing.
“Char! Maang-nim! It’s so much fun eating together!”
Hehe, right? I’m having fun too, Sharan.”
“Shaa shaa!”
Excited by the fun atmosphere, Sharan was also happy while eating the tempura. Did she see this lovely woman. Because real fries are omnipotent. I like them all.
“To see the demon king and his army of monsters having such fun. I think a lot.”
“Don’t be like that too much, Leah-sama, go and have some.”
“We’re going to eat here.”
“Eat with the monsters.”
“Don’t worry, we’ll be eating next to the saintess.”
‘Cause you’re still ugly
Anyway.
It is very important to solidify solidarity with such a party.
My affair was roughly finished. The castle was completely taken over, and the territory also fell into my hands. The monsters were also convinced. People are praising the saintess.
All that remains is to fight.
In the future, I will have to fight the ‘real army’ with my men. Never being careless. You have to fight a bloody battle with a real army that has been professionally trained.
It’s different from jungle warfare where we don’t have to expose our identities. The enemy will prepare, and as long as they know about us, they will come up with an effective strategy.
To fight those guys… You need solidarity.
“Big.”
He drank while thinking about it. The wine the baron has collected is quite sweet. Because this is really good
“Whoa.”
After enjoying my drink, I went upstairs and stood in front of the window to get some fresh air.
ㅡFlap and flap.
And, as usual, Evileye flew in.
“Culse oppa!”
“Uh. Karti. What news did you bring today?”
“Now you’re completely treated like a newsboy! Anyway, Culse oppa! I asked for some good information!”
“Ohh, what is it?”
“You know there’s another monarch’s estate next door, right?”
Of course I know.
And I also know that the relationship between the territory and the territory is so bad that it is said to be a fight.
“Uh. I know why.”
“They’re acting suspiciously!”
“This.”
Is it time to fight the neighboring lord?
