I Became a Madman in the Game - I Became a Madman in the Game chapter 99
Episode. 32 Gardening (2)
Three days have passed since the victory and there have been three meetings.
I was exhausted from the meeting that lasted all day today.
Same problem, same argument, same ending every day.

This meeting was a time-consuming monster with no progress whatsoever.
“Turn it off.”
Just as I was about to raise my tired body from boredom, the lord of the castle of Ord caught me.
In an attitude as if he had something to say, he put his butt back together.
“Why is that?”
However, he did not open his mouth even after holding onto the tired person.
The reason is obvious.
The problem must be the commanders who pretended not to be and listened intently.
“It fits perfectly.”
“Chemm!”
Those commanders left their positions only after being confronted by me and the lord of the castle.
Soon it was just the two of us in the conference room.
I gazed at the lord of the castle, intending to speak now.
“How long do you think it will take for Hoor religion to spread to the territories around the capital?”
But the question was completely unexpected.
Why would I ever wonder why?
I’m not really curious about the progress of hoor religion.
Then there was only one answer.
“Did you know?”
The more people who believe in Hor and pray, the stronger Hor is.
The lord must have noticed that.
Seongju nodded to see if my thoughts were correct.
“I was convinced by the last battle. It was quite different from when I was fighting the undead.”
A light large enough to cover the entire Rio Castle.
It was a strength that could not be shown even during the nightmare of the undead, which gave the union many difficulties.
It’s definitely a part that you can notice even if you have a little doubt.
It was clear what the difference between then and now was.
“you’re right. Thanks to the spread of Horgyo in the royal capital, his power has become stronger.”
I vehemently expressed my affirmation.
“The Royal Capital plans to select missionaries and dispatch them to various places. It won’t take too long.”
While I was away, I relayed the situation of the royal capital that I had been checking with Shinan.
Hearing those words, the countenance of the lord brightened considerably.
While listening to it, he said it was a welcome sound, and expressed his anticipation without hiding it.
“Then let’s go.”
Leaving Seongju behind, I left the meeting room.
I went straight to my room and lay down on the sofa, and my whole body started to sag.
In my heart, I wanted to go to sleep, but unlike my sluggish body, my head was complicated.
The Demon King’s magic that remains like a scar on the entire continent and does not disappear.
Now that everyone shuddered at the hideousness, this place, which could be called the center of the continent, was turbulent.
Baren was slowly transforming into a religious nation, and the castle of plague was inflating its chest.
Not only that.
“The defeat of the Magic Union… … .”
The magic union suffered great damage from the liches.
They moved to the south of the assembly point located in the middle of the Balter Plain.
Some time after that, the wizards who had observed the abnormality of Paulin Castle at an early stage quickly increased their number and strengthened their defenses here and there.
The guys also had a fire in their feet.
At the time of the Undead War, those who had only watched without their hands were alerted with all their sincerity this time.
However, in the end, he is defeated by the plague monsters he has never seen before.
Although he killed all the monsters, it was impossible to stop the plague itself.
I couldn’t watch the progress of the battle, but the result reflected in the god’s eye said so.
“Well, that’s pretty good.”
Half of the 2,000 magicians stationed at all times survived.
Three hundred of them turned black and were abandoned by their comrades.
In other words, the remaining seven hundred were completely free from the plague’s influence.
On the other hand, weren’t we stained black even after winning a great victory?
This meant that it was easier for wizards to deal with plague than for knights.
Tok, tok-
I knocked on the table next to the sofa.
“If Alan joins them, I won’t have to worry.”
Alan soon arrives at Margarten, the Garden of the Southern Elves.
When the work there was finished, he planned to send it straight to the Magic Union.
The composition of Rio Castle, the Plague Castle, and the magic union that will unfold in the future was drawn in detail.
Soon after, I remembered that what I need to pay attention to is not the Southern Continent.
Right now, this land where I am is the biggest problem.
Not to mention, the knights and soldiers had no means to prepare themselves for the plague.
You can’t open a barrier like a wizard, and you can’t handle magical tools.
They are brave rather than wise, and more appropriately called those who endure rather than prepare.
It must be really like a sword.
A sword that does not change its shape or its use, and only knows how to cut through something.
Therefore, it was necessary to change the environment itself.
So that the rust called pestilence does not stick to the swords of Rio Castle.
Like a forge sharpening a blade,
◈ ◈ ◈
He leisurely strolled on top of the wall and observed the soldiers.
Some were standing guard on top of the wall, while others were moving supplies here and there.
The first battle happened just a few days ago.
Compared to that time, the atmosphere of the castle had changed drastically.
The gloomy air was nowhere to be found, and the fear that was thickly covering the faces of the soldiers was nowhere to be seen.
It is because faith in God has become their resting place.
The effect of pouring in ten million people’s faith was truly outstanding.
There were no non-believers among the castle’s troops, so it wasn’t a bad situation.
“Ho, ho-le!”
“Hor.”
A soldier standing guard greeted them.
I waved my hands roughly and walked on top of the wall.
Every soldier he encountered greeted him brightly.
From low-level soldiers to the leaders of the alliance and the lord of the castle, there is no one who does not expect the miracle of Hor.
They were just thinking about dealing with the monster, and they didn’t seem to worry too much about the plague itself.
It was exactly what I was hoping for.
Even if they fear the plague anyway, there’s nothing they can do about it.
It just makes me dull.
I turned my head and looked over the wall.
A miraculous light permeated the entire castle while burning the plague.
The land of Rio Castle, which had become barren due to numerous battles, was transformed into fertile land with plenty of faith.
If this is a vegetable garden, there will be no shortage of gardeners to pamper the garden.
After looking around the castle for a while, we came down from the wall.
And he moved straight to the room prepared in the fort.
“Are you here?”
Tassar, the leader of the elves who had fallen and only 50 remained, bowed.
I could see the elves busily moving behind him.
Occupying an entire large room, they were constantly drawing magic circles.
He must have drawn so many magic circles in the meantime, the unique smell of grass vibrated.
“The frame will be completed soon.”
While I was watching the magic circle disappear into the ground, Tassar posted a report from the side.
There was no fear or anger in his voice.
I don’t know if that’s hiding my feelings or if it’s really nothing.
“Everything is the will of the Great Mother.”
Did you guess what I was thinking?
Tassar gave an answer he hadn’t even asked.
“We are only following the mother’s decision.”
“Even if something you value more than your life gets damaged?”
“If you are with me, will that be possible?”
A look full of trust, the same as when he was looking at Adele.
It was the eye that saw the god Hor, not the human Richard.
It was embarrassing.
However, he did not reveal his inner feelings.
“The plague is at hand.”
It was just a word of warning.
“… … I will hurry.”
Tassar nodded and moved quickly.
Leaving him behind, he felt the flow of mana wrapped around him.
The barrier the elves are preparing is not one.
Hundreds of complicated formulas were interlocking like gears.
In case the elaborate structure would go awry, I moved cautiously and entered the middle of the room.
“dad!”
The center of the room with a green magic circle.
Adele was on top of it.
It was strange to see that scene, like seeing a little boy lying on an operating table.
“What’s wrong with your expression?”
Seeing my face, she smiled.
Tsk, I’d rather be like a child like this.
“Are you really going to be okay?”
“are you okay. I’m just preparing to move, so what?”
Isara.
It was not wrong.
It was a problem to have the plague as a neighbor.
“No, not even a director. I’m building a nice villa! Because only half of them come this way.”
Despite being unable to move on top of the magic circle, her innocent appearance remained the same.
I sat down on the seat right in front of the magic circle.
“This is where there is more blood than rain.”
The plan was cruising, but the mind was not always at ease.
This is a battlefield full of blood and death.
Soldiers could spill hot oil while moving it, or a tree could catch fire somewhere.
It was not uncommon to get hit by the boots of the knights running around like crazy.
“are you okay.”
But despite that, Adele said it was okay.
She is not just a young girl as she looks.
It was the lofty status of a world tree, and the duties she shouldered were by no means small.
To guard against the castle of that plague that disturbs the foundations of the world.
For Baren, who is blocking the flood of nightmares.
Adele said she would move half of my body here.
Ever since I decided to leave Battenberg, she has also made a big decision.
All I could do was make this land fertile with faith.
After this, it was up to the gardener, the elf.
“Don’t worry too much. Do you think those children are suffering for nothing?”
“No way.”
I shook my head slowly at Adele’s question.
Elves are the best gardeners in the world.
Since ancient times, those who set dirty feet in their gardens were doomed.
It was a terrible dungeon for enemies and a fortress that bestowed blessings on allies, so the garden itself was no different from the tradition of the elves.
It definitely meant that it was not so fragile that it could be easily broken.
“Rio Castle will literally become an impregnable fortress!”
The World Tree laughed and said.
I also laughed at that confident tone.
hahahaha
Who would dare to capture this castle?
There is a god in this castle the size of a fingernail, and there is a world tree.
Even a garden like a tradition of a race is going to be pampered.
