Chapter 393

#393. It’s a bit subtle, though.

“After all, you’re saying it’s better to refrain from expanding too much all at once, right?”

“It’s kind of unprecedented, isn’t it? Even if there is no problem right away, don’t forget that magic always comes with a price.”

“Thanks for the advice.”

“There is no need to be thankful. This job is interesting to me in many ways.”

Leviathan Hotel.

In the laboratory in the basement, Shire let out a huhu laugh.

It is the first time she has been called the Queen of Magic and has lived for thousands of years, providing food to a population of billions with magic.

Just being able to do these experiments for free was well worth the free service.

Besides, lately I’ve come up with something else interesting, and

I’m like, “By the way, black girl, are you okay?”

“It is better to finish the supply of food as soon as possible, but we have already passed the critical juncture. There is nothing wrong with taking a little time.”

“Other than that, I mean sending the white baby together.”

Maybe because it was such an unexpected question.

Unlike before, when he gave an unobstructed answer, Li Qingyu opened his mouth after a moment of silence.

“Do you have anything to say about Ainsha?”

“You know that the white baby has other thoughts, don’t you?”

Shir put on a strange smile.

With thousands of years of insight, there was no way she could not have noticed the strange atmosphere flowing among the princesses of the Seven Dragons.

However, Li Qingyu’s voice was calm.

“She will be fine.”

“Do you believe in the white baby?”

“I’d be lying if I said I completely trusted Ainsha.”

Li Qingyu smiled bitterly.

Trusting in another princess when even that Rose was corrupt and betrayed everyone was absolutely sane.

Especially for the Black Dragon Princess, who no one believes.

Even so, there are two reasons why she tolerated Ainsha’s company.

One was Limon’s decision.

The other one is…

“What I believe is that Ainsha is the White Dragon Princess.”

“Do you mean that even if the White Dragon Clan conspires, it won’t work for you?”

“I have no intention of saying such arrogant things. I’m just talking about the nature of the White Dragon Clan.”

“Hmm, that’s a sharp point.”

As the White Dragon Clan is the purest in the Seven Dragons, they are more distant from scheming than the Blue Dragon Clan.

Unless you see and follow the wisdom.

It was a clan that couldn’t even set up and execute complex conspiracies.

So, at the point of accompanying Limon, the possibility that Ainsha had an intention to work properly was infinitely close to zero.

The more you rely on your foreknowledge to plan and execute, the more you will err.

Knowing that fact made me laugh for a while.

Shir soon smiled strangely and added one more word.

“But be careful, black child. For those who know the future are governed by the future, and nothing darkens the eyes like certainty.”

That moment.

The eyes, which were as beautiful as obsidian, sank deeply.

“…Where did you hear that?”

“Are you saying that those who know the future are governed by the future? This is what I realized after seeing Cassandra.”

“Are you referring to Cassandra as a prophetess active in the Silver Age?”

“It is. Her foresight surpassed me and even the goddess of fate, but in the end, she was a great witch who was destroyed because of her own prophecy.”

The reason why he didn’t do fortune-telling was because he had seen her ruin.

Sir, who was talking with longing, suddenly made a puzzled expression.

“Then why did you ask this?”

“I had heard something similar before, so I was curious about the source.”

“Hmm, then it looks like you heard from Limon. In this day and age, the only one who would say such an outdated maxim would be that little girl.”

“…that’s how it is.”

Shir laughed at Li Qingyu’s subtle answer.

Players who change the future they saw with skills for profit, as well as the White Dragon clan, who live according to their foreknowledge to get the best results.

To those in this age where wisdom has become a tool, this proverb is nothing but superstition.

Because I knew that few people could understand the fears and dangers of knowing the future.

So it was.

Syrr, who remembered one of those rare people, a gray-haired swordsman, smiled wickedly.

“Anyway, it must be a lot of trouble. Even if I just took the Prophet, it would have been a headache, but the White Dragon Princess, determined to plot things, is by my side.”

are you worried

Or is it expected?

Looking at the archwitch talking mischievously, Li Qingyu replied with a small smile.

“You will be fine. Because he is a swordsman.”

* * *

“Hmm, indeed.”

A white-haired man tapping the armrest with a furrowed brow.

Limon asked casually.

“Is the crazy princess saying that she would capture all the revolutionaries and send them to Gulag?”

A white-haired girl sitting on the bed, sipping cocoa.

Ainsha answered bluntly.

“It’s not bullshit. If you want Yekatrice, do it.”

“Instead, that point could be a year later or 10 years from now?”

“This is exactly the point where Lee pulls out.”

“…After all, it means that it is a groundwork to keep me tied to their territory for as long as possible.”

“That’s right.”

“That shit is vicious.”

Limon clicked his tongue.

Catherine’s plan was both complex and simple.

First of all, he uses the bounty and equity negotiations as an excuse to attract Limon and entrusts the Liberation Brigade with subjugation.

If so, it will be difficult for Limon to leave the country until the Liberation Brigade is dealt with.

If you leave the Russian Khanate, leaving the Liberation Brigade behind, Catherine will try to push the Revolutionary Army out entirely just to get the bounty.

No matter how much blood is shed in the process.

[Uh… In short, Punsu’s plan is to use the revolutionary army to capture the team leader?]

“That’s how it is.”

So it was.

The reason why Na-kyung Yun was shaken up.

I wondered what happened when Limon brought Ainsha to his room late at night.

It wasn’t just because he had no choice but to widen his beak in many ways after learning about Yekathrice and Ainsha’s conspiracy.

It was because there was a part that took a while to hear.

[…Then isn’t this a hostage situation?]

That moment.

Limon’s fingers stopped.

The lips that drank the cocoa closed.

A strange silence descended.

This is because, according to Limon’s principle of not compromising on a hostage situation, if it was a hostage situation, it could not be passed on.

When Yuna-gyeong, realizing that she had touched a landmine, inadvertently swallowed a dry spit.

Limon opened his mouth.

“It’s a little subtle… but it’s hard to call this a hostage situation.”

[yes? Why?]

“Because the crazy princess isn’t taking hostages, she’s just trying to exercise her rights according to the law as the ruler of this country.”

[…Are you trying to send more than 1 million revolutionary troops to Gulag?]

“Then do you think it’s wrong to catch an anti-government organization that tried to assassinate the head of state?”

[That’s right…]

Yuna-kyung forgot what to say.

It’s because there are so many people and the prison sentence is harsh, but it’s true that just organizing an assassination is a crime that needs to be arrested.

To her, Limon said coldly.

“Actually, imprisonment is enough for a nobleman. In the old days, it would have been enough to kill all 1 million people.”

[Isn’t that a bit harsh?]

“Why? Even now, in most countries, treason and civil war are serious crimes punishable by death or life imprisonment.”

Limon snorted.

Kill even the raised dogs.

They are treated as criminals from generation to generation just because they are neighbors of traitors.

Seeing him who lived in an era where a rule-by-association system was natural, it was actually a fairly mild punishment to punish only the perpetrator.

[However, there is a degree. Then what if an innocent person gets caught?]

“So I warned you. Even if there is only one innocent person among them, I will intervene.”

[…that’s what you meant?]

“Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to work for the crazy princess, though.”

Limon sighed as he remembered Yekathrice, who laughed even more happily after hearing his warning.

Whether it’s the confidence that you can’t make mistakes.

Whether it’s the madness that just having fun is good.

That Yekathrice would not hesitate to subdue the revolutionary army was evident just by looking at her smile at that time.

“The troubling thing is that the mad princess is using Wisdom against her.”

[Reverse use?]

“Hasn’t the crazy princess never asked for anything other than buying shares? Rather, we set out to stop Wisdom first.”

Limon clicked his tongue.

He entrusted Ainsha with negotiations to prevent the future in which half of the Russian people will die.

It was obvious that this itself was part of Yekathrice’s plan to gain the initiative in the negotiations.

[Wait. So, are you saying that the punsy sister made up the wisdom that half the Russian people would die?]

“That’s not likely. Even the most insane princess would know that if she deliberately slaughtered half the Russian people, she would die at my hands.”

“We intend to cause chaos by subjugating the Yekatrice Revolutionary Army. A massacre is not in the plan.”

[Uh, then the subjugation of the revolutionary army might stop if I tell you that foreknowledge…]

“Maybe it won’t stop?”

“On the contrary, I do it more excitedly.”

“Because I know it’s hard to hold you accountable if it’s not intentional.”

“Besides, we think that we have grasped our weakness, so we use it more thoroughly.”

[…the evaluation of that unnie is amazing.]

“Of course. That’s Yekatrice. This is the basis.”

The craziest and cruelest princess in the Seven Dragons is Yekatrice.

When Yuna-kyung puts on a tired expression after hearing Ainsha’s expressionless face.

Limon muttered, frowning.

“Anyway, the important thing is what the crazy princess is trying to do by tying me to this country…” ”

It’s a beauty world.”

“So you said seducing me was your plan?”

“That’s right. I will do it until it doesn’t work. Then the success rate is 100%.”

All you have to do is create a pre-existing room.

Looking at Ainsha, who clenched her fists with an expressionless face and reflected on the advice she had received from Tata, Limon thought to herself.

‘90% of you have a different idea, that crazy princess.’

I wonder if it’s Ainsha.

This couldn’t be all of the plans Yekathrice made, as smart as the Black Dragon clan.

…The Silver Dragon Princess’s fear was that she might seriously push ahead with this absurd plan, as she had slightly tasted it.

So it was.

The reason Limon opened his mouth with a sigh.

“Now that this has happened, there is only one solution.”

[What are you going to do?]

“We need to get rid of the cause of the problem.”

[You said you were going to find the Liberation Brigade hiding in the Revolutionary Army and kill them?]

“Yes. Either to change the wisdom or to prevent the mad princess from plotting. There is no other way.”

[That’s right, but how are you going to find it?]

Yuna-kyung was confused.

The Liberation Brigade is the worst player criminal organization of this era.

It was because they were so thoroughly hidden that their roots had not yet been revealed even while they were being chased around the world because of the bounty offered by Charlotte.

However, Limon was not anxious.

As Noh Kang-ho, who lived a long time before becoming a sword master.

And as a former senior agent for a government agency that has been dedicated to dealing with player crime since the early days of the Iron Age, he just chuckled.

“Is there anything special? We should go back to the days of PAB.”
