A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War!

Chapter 96: (2)

Chapter 96: (2)

Linda, who had been sitting in Kaiyans rooms chair, glanced at him with a burdened look, as if it was quite remarkable.

Of course. Thats why I even deceived the knights.

Three days ago, Vyarolfs scream had echoed throughout the mansion. The knights rushed in to see a bed soaked in blood. In that bed lay Vyarolf, with a pale face, and it was clear how much blood he had shed.

The knights had looked at Linda with astonished eyes, and Kaiyan had lied to them, saying that Vyarolf had resisted and had to be killed.

Vyarolf

When Kaiyan turned his head, he met the eyes of Vyarolf, who was enjoying his snack on the bed.

Hehe

Sure, eat a lot.

In reality, he had no idea that he was still alive, and thanks to this, everyone from the regular soldiers to those working at the Markain mansion believed that Vyarolf was dead.

Despite not officially announcing it, the Armis family had contacted us because they were convinced through their spies that Vyarolf was dead.

They hadnt seen the body, but Kaiyan had intentionally left the bed soaked in blood for them to see.

Moreover, the blood that stained that bed is definitely Vyarolfs blood. Whether they investigate with magic or whatever, theyll think that Vyarolf is dead.

He had spewed out so much blood and still lived, all thanks to potions. As a result, Kaiyan had used up all the emergency potions he had been carrying around.

Linda had offered to give Kaiyan potions from the family, but he couldnt accept. After all, he had planned all of this.

What are you going to do now?

We have to accept the territorial dispute, of course. But we need to protest to the Empire as if were unjustly treated. That way, an investigative team will come, and everything will eventually come to light.

Just informing the Empire that Vyarolf was alive would make the territorial dispute the Armis count was preparing meaningless. However, what Kaiyan was aiming for was the perfect defeat of the Armis family.

Rieka, who had been in Lindas arms, approached Kaiyan.

[Kaiyan, did you secretly raise your intelligence? It seems like your mind has suddenly become sharper!]

I spent a lot of time in the Carsia territory.

What made all of this possible was the knowledge that Barvan and Hoil had provided about the ecology and behavior of nobles. As Kaiyan learned about nobles, He naturally learned why they behaved the way they did and what they disliked.

Things Kaiyan couldnt have known before he met Barvan. Its as if the more you know, the more you see.

Linda, its said that the Mareon Empire usually approves territorial disputes related to the murder of nobles, right?

Oh, yes! The administrators said that it usually takes no more than three days for a temporary approval to be granted. Of course, even if approval is granted, it doesnt mean they immediately start a war.

Hmm If its the Armis family, theyll swoop in as soon as approval is granted. From their perspective, they need to eliminate you quickly before the investigation team arrives, so they can hide the evidence of their actions.

These were the individuals who were willing to incite a territorial war even to the point of killing Vyarolf. Thats why Count Armis couldnt afford to miss this opportunity. Probably, the moment approval is granted, hell lead an army to trample over the Markain territory.

Now its our turn to act. Linda, you need to request the army you promised from that guy within three days. Make sure Count Armis doesnt find out that the destination is the Markain territory.

Yes! But what if they ask whether you really killed Vyarolf? It might be difficult to help even if you promise them the rights to the gold mine.

The person Kaiyan and Linda were talking about was the one who had originally planned to ensure the safety of the Markain family.

And now, he was not only a staunch ally who would inflict tremendous damage on the Armis family but also safeguard the familys safety.

Dont say its impossible. And whats with these guys who make such a big deal even when we offer them rights to a gold mine?

The person who agreed to help us was Viscount Vyraxar, one of the high-ranking lords in the western region of the Mareon Empire.

On the first day of arriving at the Markain territory, he gathered officials and collected information about the surrounding territories. Who follows which noble, and who the real powers are?

The one chosen as a reliable ally was none other than Visount Vyraxar.

He was not on good terms with Count Armis since he followed a different high lord, Lord Molson, instead of Count Armis, who was the western Grand Duke. From the Markain familys perspective, he was the perfect partner for their alliance.

But since he wouldnt just help them voluntarily, they proposed a deal to him. If he helps them, theyll grant him the rights to the newly discovered gold mine.

But Linda, are you really okay with this? Giving away the gold mine?

Yes, its fine. Having a powerless noble family holding it wont solve the problem anyway.

All of this was made possible by Lindas bold decision, which was not driven by greed. While other nobles might scoff at such an act, to Linda, who had lived like a commoner in Menislan, the gold mine was not that important.

Alright then. Lets do it properly.

[Kaiyan, you seem to be having fun right now, is it just my imagination? I remember when you first took on this job, you were really annoyed]

Riekas words were correct. In the beginning, Kaiyan had honestly found it troublesome when Linda first asked for his help. Moreover, it would delay their journey to Vantigas.

But its different now.

Revenge for Lindas family, and the satisfaction of being able to give that arrogant Count Armis a taste of his own medicine.

Could there be another opportunity to deal with the Count, whom he wouldnt have even dared to look at in the past, let alone contemplate punishing him with his own planned method, all while he was still an Imperial Count?

If I miss this opportunity, Id be a fool.

He had thought his growth had stopped when he left the monster habitat, but he was wrong.

Compared to back then, his strength remained the same, but his mind and heart had grown beyond recognition.

Kwak.

As he stared at his tightly clenched fist, he felt a surge of confidence that he could overcome anything that came his way.

Make sure they never target the Markain family again.
