Tyrant

The Pied Piper. His name was Crown. ‘A court musician, a court jester, and a court magician of the Lake Kingdom, right?’ His responsibilities were numerous. I scoffed inwardly. This man was not that great of an NPC in the game. Even when he occasionally intruded on the battlefield, he didn’t directly engage in combat….

[Zone 3: Outer Fortress, North Side] — Clear Progress: Normal Room 1/1, Boss Room 1/1 — Treasure Boxes Obtained: 2/2 Zone 3, all cleared. There had been a minor mishap during the boss fight, but all things considered, the clearing was both swift and smooth. The Golden Gargoyle didn’t drop any notable equipment items, but…

Jupiter was charging alone towards the Golden Gargoyle, while the rest of the party members stood rooted in their places, flabbergasted by the abrupt shift of events. I shouted out in desperation. “Hey, Jupiter! What are you doing?! Stop!” “…” “Jupiter! Come back, Jupiter!” That’s when it happened. “…Gold.” Drooling profusely, Jupiter yelled out. “It’s…

Three days later. Evangeline’s injuries had fully healed. The knightly lance and shield of the Cross family, which had hit rock bottom in durability, were also repaired. Damien’s eye was nearly recovered. I returned to him the SSR-ranked magic gun, Black Queen. Only my left arm remained in a cast. I wish I could recover…

[Maestro(SSR) Lv.35] — Category: Staff — Attack Power: 35-50…

“I…” Damien, hesitating, cautiously spoke. “I haven’t thought about it since. That promise with you, Your Highness.” “…” “When all the monsters are defeated and peace comes to these frontlines, Your Highness, ask me again then.” Damien looked up at me with a face I couldn’t tell was smiling or crying. “I’ll answer then.

From Crossroad, situated at the world’s farthest south, to the distant north. The central part of the continent. Here, one could say, lies the heart of the world. The capital of the Everblack Empire — ‘New Terra’ boasts its colossal magnificence. This city, embracing a vast harbor reaching the inner sea of the continent, is…

“This city is already mine. Can’t give it back!” I stuck out my tongue at her. “You think I would just give it back because it’s originally yours? As if! To spit out power as sweet as a candy that’s already been in my mouth! What a delusion!” “…” “This city is already claimed by…
