Going Into the Game With an Instant Death Skill

After muttering like that, the tax collector quickly moved on.

Taylor hesitated, then followed.

***

Suddenly, many people gathered at the main gate of the royal palace.

Not only Longford, the king of Earth Hill, but also the kings, princes and princesses of each neutral country, and countless vassals.

The royal family of all neutral countries who participated in the meeting, except only those from the Seintea side, gathered at the meeting.

Even if the organizer of this meeting was Earth Hill, the other participants did not dare not show their faces.

In the chilly, frozen atmosphere, everyone stared at the woman walking towards the entrance of the castle with eyes full of tension.

Overlord of Calderic, Rashatain.

There was only one young human male standing beside her, without a single procession.

However, just that alone, the presence of the two overwhelms everyone in the room.

Longford calmly stepped forward and greeted the two of them.

“Thank you for taking the long steps to Earth Hill, Overlord.”

The overlord snorted and looked around once.

“Yes, King Longford. It seems we are the last to go. Let’s go inside.”

“Yes. But this one….”

Longford looked at the man standing next to the Overlord with puzzled eyes.

Because until now, she had rarely accompanied anyone to a meeting.

The overlord smiled brightly and said calmly.

“This is the new 7th Lord of Calderic.”

“······································································!

Everyone looked at the man with a look of surprise.

The new 7th Lord of Calderic.

The person who has recently killed the same monarch, the tyrant, and is making the most noise on the continent.

The giant, who had been veiled without knowing anything, had walked with the overlord to this meeting.

“············”.

Meanwhile, before the overlord even spoke, there was a man who continued to stare blankly at the seventh overlord. It was Taylor.

Standing next to the overlord was a man who looked exactly like the one he had met earlier in the Fifth Overlord.

As soon as he realized that his true identity was the Seven Lords, he thought about it. What the hell is going on?

The Overlord and the Seventh Overlord walked in between the crowds split on either side.

The young royals who participated in the meeting for the first time and encountered the overlord of Calderik for the first time in their lives could not raise their heads recklessly in a sense of intimidation.

Similarly, Seri, who was glancing at the two of them with her gaze down, suddenly turned to her brother who was standing next to him.

Because he was staring at them too openly.

‘what are you doing? stupid······.’

She poked Tails in the side to give him a look, then hurriedly bowed her head again.

It was because the 7th lord’s gaze was directed in this direction for some reason.

Read from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

I thought it would be a simple touch, but the 7th lord even stopped walking in front of the two of them.

“············”.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on the 7th lord who stopped walking.

The overlord looked back at him as if puzzled, and Longford, who was standing next to him, had a hard expression on his face.

Seri tried to calm her pounding heart whether she had made a mistake.

After a brief silence, the seventh lord’s mouth opened.

“It’s been a while, Taylor.”

Everyone looked at Taylor with a shocked look at the way he greeted him naturally.

Neutral Nations Conference (2)

At the actions of the 7th lord, Tayr had no choice but to panic.

Even if they knew each other, they did not know that they would suddenly pretend to know each other in a place like this.

Of course, Taylor wasn’t the only one surprised.

King Longford’s eyes widened at the incomprehensible situation unfolding before his eyes, and the publican was half enthralled.

But it had to be. Why on earth is the Lord of Calderic suddenly saluting Tayr? What kind of contact do you have?

In the center of his attention, Taylor hesitated, not knowing how to react at that moment.

The 7th lord opened his mouth again and asked.

“When did you return to the kingdom?”

“·······Oh yes. Just returned today.”

Taylor answered with a bewildered voice.

The 7th lord nodded and started walking again. One last thing to say.

“See you later.”

It was only a few words of conversation, but the atmosphere was like a calm storm.

The overlord and the 7th monarch went inside the castle, and there was a chaos in the place.

‘What is it, really….’

Taylor looked at their backs as they moved away, and then turned his head to the gaze he suddenly felt.

Among the greetings of Kashol standing on the other side, Chordan and Olivica were staring at this side, unable to keep their mouths shut.

“Oh, bro. What the hell was that, huh?”

Seri, who woke up late, asked in an urgent voice.

Taylor let out a small sigh without answering. He was the most confusing thing right now.

***

‘We met right away as soon as we arrived.’

I followed the king of Earthhill into the palace, thinking about Tayr.

Go back to your place, a word I left him before.

There was nothing strange about it even though nothing had changed, as it was just a word that could be passed on insignificantly, but it seemed to have returned in the end.

“Seventh lord, if not excuse me, can you tell me how you know Prince Tayr?”

Then the king of Earth Hill opened his mouth.

He had been paying attention to me for a while, and he seemed curious about that.

I answered casually.

“It’s not a big deal. It’s just that the kite came across by chance in the Fifth Monarchy.”

And I almost owe a debt that I am so grateful for.

Thanks to the map that Tyr gave me, I was able to acquire the mystery of the extrasensory that I would not have originally obtained.

“······Is that so.”

The king nodded with a curious expression and did not ask further questions.

Thinking about it, I thought it would be absurd from his point of view.

I wonder if he was thinking that he had met all the lords of Calderic because he went out of the royal castle and did something.

As I was walking down the halls of the palace, thinking about one thing or another, I saw a series of hordes approaching from the other side.

A young woman, an elderly man, and a little older man standing in the middle of them.

Behind the three were some attendants or knights.

“············”.

As soon as I saw them, I immediately knew who they were.

The old man in the middle is Grandius, the Emperor of Seintea.

The men standing on the left are Changseong and Quaden, who are one of the five stars in terms of level and appearance.

And the woman on the right is probably one of the princesses, but I don’t know who it is.

The footsteps stopped for a moment, and the overlord looked at them facing the front with a smile.

The emperor was the first to speak after a brief silence.

“Long time no see, Overlord. It seems you have just arrived.”

A low-pitched, cracking voice echoed in the hallway.

He had a level that could not be said to be high for a small stature, but he was exuding a strange sense of intimidation that was difficult to describe.

I couldn’t help but feel a bit similar to when I first got into the game and met the Overlord for the first time.

It wasn’t that he felt as powerful as the overlord in the character of the emperor itself, but because of another reason.

Because he was the emperor anyway.

The main story flow of this Rasa universe, the hero, was the head of the forces that existed.

“Yes. Long time no see, Emperor.”

The overlord answered with a smirk.

To the king of Earth Hill, she used honorific words with minimal respect, but not to the emperor.

And the emperor didn’t seem to care much about him. His gaze reached me.

“·······You must be the new 7th Lord of Calderic. Nice to meet you.”

Apparently, he recognized my identity at a glance.

There was no surprise. Of course, the Emperor must have looked for information about me, and I was standing right next to the Overlord right now.

Naturally, the conclusion that he was the new 7th monarch was inevitable.

“By the way, didn’t the hero even come to this meeting?”

“That’s right. He didn’t come.”

“Ah, sorry. I couldn’t see your face before, so I was looking forward to it this time.”

The overlord grumbled like that with a sign of genuine regret.

“Then I’ll see you at the meeting.”

And there were no further conversations.

It wasn’t an accidental encounter, but it seemed that the Emperor’s only purpose was to see his face for a moment.

The woman standing next to the emperor bowed lightly to me and the overlord, and Changseong glanced at Ashel standing behind me.

So they passed by and went on their way.

“············”.

I slowly turned my gaze away.

Achel’s expression hardened coldly. It was a look I had never seen before.

His clenched fists were trembling, and he felt as if he was barely holding back the seething life that was about to explode.

Her gaze was fixed on the back of one of the three men moving away. I followed their gaze and looked at their backs.

‘Changseong…’

I knew why she was reacting like this.

Changseong Quaden.

The enemy who annihilated his clan rather than anyone else is right in front of him, who can keep his composure?

Just not pulling out the sword right away and not rushing in was a great thing.

“Achelle.”

As I called my name, Ashel closed her eyes once, then opened them, and looked away from them.

“······sorry.”

I wanted to say something, but I couldn’t think of anything to say, so I decided to just quit.

When he turned his head, the overlord was looking at him with interest.

***

They were even guided to the dormitory to stay during the meeting, and since it was just in time, the overlord and I had lunch together.

The reason I didn’t eat with the king was because the meeting was about to start, and there was a banquet after that.

While sitting face to face with the overlord at a needlessly long table and dine silently, she asked:

“You mean the 7th Overlord’s escort knight, did you say your name is Ashel? You originally came in as an apprentice knight in the Overlord Castle, didn’t you?”

I stopped the knife that was slicing the meat and looked at her. I’m a little perplexed inside.

I thought he didn’t care because he hadn’t said much until now, but suddenly he came in.

“The chief of staff said that the 7th Lord took one of the apprentice knights, so I was interested. I didn’t know that she would be that talented, haha. If the 7th Lord hadn’t taken her, I would have been able to join the Black Rin.”

“············”.

It was said with a single smile, but somehow it sounded like a little bit of blaming.

Come to think of it, the first time the overlord saw Ashel was in the overlord’s castle before leaving for neutrality.

If it was her, of course, from the first time I saw her, she would have understood her level at a glance.

To be honest, I also had a bit of a prick for taking out Ashel, so I just kept quiet.

“Did you say that Kashol might herald war on Earth Hill?”

The overlord smiled a little and nodded when he swung the subject to the talk of the meeting.

“I did. But why?”

“Are you thinking of getting involved?”

“No, no. Of course the Emperor will.”

The answer came right back to the question. Is it too?

The war between Earthhill and Kashol was one of many episodes of the main story.

In the game, neither Calderic nor Seintea had intervened in the war, so the overlord’s intentions were already known.

Of course, they also knew why they didn’t want to interfere in the war.

“By the way, the 7th lord seems to care quite a bit about the prince earlier? He deliberately said that.

“No worries.”

The overlord shook his head.

“Because it’s bleak anyway.”

I thought for a moment.

As the overlord said, talking to Taylor on the spot earlier was somewhat intentional.

Because first, I was going to help the Earth Hill Kingdom.

There was also a debt to Taylor, and above all, in the main story of the game, this war ended with Earth Hill’s victory. It is because of the activity of the user group.

So, in fact, it wasn’t an act of trying to figure out what the benefits were.

It’s just the story, so I just want to follow him and reduce the potential risk as much as possible.

Well, once the talks start, we’ll have to see how things will turn out.

***

“Brother, do you want to talk to me? What the hell were you doing outside, so you became friends with the lord of Calderic! Huh?!”

“It’s not like that, so…”

Tayr thought that Seri was noisy and moved forward.

As soon as I opened the door to the room I arrived at, King Longford was already seated and waiting inside.

Next to him stood another man, his older brother and first prince, Lucus.
