Login Psychopath - Chapter 106



Only Noblemtl

Episode 106.

Any method can be used.

First of all, I just need to meet the lord.

And he tries to sow discord, just like he did to Count Rodin.

There wasn’t a specific method in mind, but considering that the relationship between the two was extremely bad, it wouldn’t be difficult to cause discord between them.

And if he succeeds in causing discord in that way, he will continue to go back and forth between the two territories to induce a territorial war, and when a territorial war really breaks out, he will immediately withdraw.

“You’re taking your foot off the gas?”

“You don’t have to fight together from the beginning. Just go with the side that seems like it will win.”

“Then what about after the Yeongjijeon is over?”

“Then I have to kill them both. I’ve already done my business, and I still have the quest to kill the nobles.”

“……omg.”

Arthur took a deep breath at Isin’s calm response.

A truly diabolical plan that ultimately betrays both of them!

Of course, if it was like God, it was a very God-like idea.

“… Anyway, to do that, we need to first build up our public service. Let’s start with the guild.”

“yes.”

Isin, who quickly made a plan, went straight to the guild.

Since it was something I had done once in the Amphiri Territory, registering as an adventurer went smoothly.

[You have completed registration as an adventurer in the Killaris Territory.]

[Current Rating: D]

“Could you please upgrade my level?”

“Rank? No. We have to start with the promotion review.”

“How can this not work?”

“What is this… Huhhhh!?!?”

[I bribed the manager!]

[Please note! If this fact becomes known…]

“… Ahem, originally it wasn’t allowed, but considering your sincerity, I’ll make it a special allowance.”

“thank you!”

[Adventurer rank increases.]

[Current Rating: A]

[You can now receive most of the quests that exist in the guild.]

Let’s apply some gold! The grade went up to A as soon as we registered!

This was possible because the administrative organs of the territory were completely corrupt.

Thanks to this, Isin was able to receive high-level quests that could provide a large amount of public service points, like in the Amphiri Territory.

‘… … The type is the same.’

The situation of the two territories is exactly the same!

There were so many similarities that it was a little disconcerting, but it worked out well for Isin anyway.

This way, we can use the same method used in the Amphiri Territory.

Yishin looked back at the knights and said.

“let’s go.”

“yes.”

“You know what to do, right? Just do the same thing.”

“…yes.”

* * *

dripping.

“… … .”

“… … .”

“No answer.”

“Then break it.”

“yes.”

At Isin’s command, the knights kicked the gate with all their might.

Boom! Crunch!

The badly worn door was torn apart like a sheet of paper by the knights’ boots.

The knights shouted as they entered.

“Come out!”

“This is an order. If you don’t come out yourself, I will drag you out myself!”

“… … ?”

Then, a resident with a disheveled appearance came out quietly.

Then he was startled by the sight of a large number of knights holding red-stained clubs and occupying the entrance, and asked:

“… Huh!? Who, who are you…?”

“He is a man who came to collect taxes.”

“Huh?!”

The residents were surprised by Lee Shin’s words.

He soon shouted with a look of indignation on his face.

“Taxes? What kind of nonsense is that!”

“Isn’t it natural for a citizen of Yeongji to pay taxes?”

“I’m saying this because I already paid it! It was just taken away the day before yesterday.”

“When did I? … … Oh, no.”

Although Isin frowned, thinking that the other person was making excuses, he soon realized what was going on and nodded.

‘I guess someone else walked away.’

Because there aren’t only users in the territory.

If we assume that there is a user who received the same quest as Isin before Isin, then what the villager said makes sense.

Or maybe an NPC walked away.

Whatever it was, it was like an adventurer bringing thugs to an already poor country and demanding double the taxes. Of course, it felt unfair.

‘… … But that’s not my part-time job.’

Since the plan was to eat the entire territory later anyway, the money is in the hands of the residents and in the lord’s treasury, but to Isin, it’s the same.

If only I could fill the quota right away, it would be a jackpot.

“Huh? What did you just say…?”

“It’s nothing. Anyway, you’re saying I can’t pay taxes?”

“Yes.”

“I’m telling you this in advance because I’m afraid you might regret it later, but it would be better for your health if you just say it now without saying anything.”

“…T-T, threatening like that won’t make you money out of nothing!”

Just cut my stomach open!

Although he tried to put pressure on the resident, he stubbornly refused.

Then, Lee Shin meekly stepped down.

“… Hmm. Okay.”

“… … ?”

“Come again next time.”

The residents raised a question mark above their foreheads at Isin, who backed down more easily than expected.

Even if you can’t usually give it, it’s normal to try to get it out somehow…?

“Oh, thank you…?”

The resident bowed with a bewildered expression as the work ended without any resolution.

… But unfortunately for him, Isin did not step down.

Rather, it was the opposite.

“I’ll go to the guard post for a bit.”

“Shall we go too?”

“No? You guys stay here and stay. I’ll be back soon.”

“yes.”

Lee Shin headed to the guard post and placed a wanted notice on him.

It wasn’t difficult.

Here, too, anything was easily possible with a bribe.

“if….”

“Wanted? That’s not something you can ask for… Huh?!!”

[I bribed the guard.]

[Resident, John is wanted.]

[Be careful! If you get caught bribing…]

‘It works, after all.’

Yishin nodded with satisfaction.

Now, all that remains is to sweep it up.

* * *

“It’s over.”

[Tax collected: 1,644,000/999,999]

[Wanted Criminal Arrested: 78/9]

[Riot suppression: 1/1]

Isin completed all the quests in an instant.

Even then, the degree of overachievement was even more severe.

It was thanks to the accumulated know-how.

[Quest exceeded its limit!]

[Your notoriety will rise greatly.]

[Public value increases significantly.]

[Current Public Ranking: 7]

[The public ranking is very high!]

[Your name is now known among the high officials of the estate.]

The public service ranking rose to 7th place in an instant!

It was a slightly higher ranking than the 9th place taken at Amphiri Estate.

“if….”

“hmm?”

The reaction was immediate.

This time, the servant sent by the lord came to find Yishin.

“Ah, let’s go right away.”

“yes?”

“Didn’t the lord send you? I’ll go right away.”

“Oh, I understand. Just follow me.”

Yishin followed the servant.

As if he had been waiting, the Count was able to meet him right away.

Count Killim welcomed Isin with open arms.

“You? The one who stopped the rebellion in the territory.”

“you’re right.”

“Huh, that must not have been easy… Is there anything you want?”

Yishin answered humbly.

“Haha, it was something I had to do.”

“Hmm. Well, that’s to be expected.”

“… … .”

‘… The answers are similar.’

“Anyway, why did you call me?”

“I have something to ask you. Actually….”

The words that followed were exactly the same as those heard in the Amphiri estate.

It’s strange that a riot suddenly broke out.

It seems like something is happening in the territory that I don’t know about… .

“What do you think is the cause?”

Since the questions were the same, the answers were also the same.

Actually, there has been some unusual activity in the nearby territory recently, and it seems like they sent people there to start a riot.

“Count Rodin, that guy?”

“Yes, I think so, but I think they are probably preparing for the Territory War.”

“… … The land of the spirits?”

Count Killim tilted his head.

Suddenly war?

Even though we weren’t on good terms, I thought it was too sudden.

But this thought was shattered by Isin’s next words.

“It is quite possible. If it is the greed of Count Rodin….”

“… That’s right!”

[Count Killim is persuaded.]

[The Count is furious!]

bang!

“Rodin, how dare this artist encroach upon my domain!?”

“… … .”

“Tsk, I can’t just take this….”

It was Count Killaim, who was grumbling and saying the same thing as Count Rodin.

Lee Shin, who had been listening quietly, intervened at an appropriate time.

“If we prepare for war now….”

“Rather than that, how about doing it this way?”

“hmm?”

“We will give back the same thing to you. Just as you received it today.”

“……aha!”

* * *

The conversation moved quickly and rapidly.

Since this was a conversation I had already had with Count Rodin once, there wasn’t much to be concerned about.

“The question is who will go….”

“I will go.”

“You?”

“That’s the best we can do. If we send out an article and get caught….”

“I see. That’s true.”

There was a slight difference, though.

Isin asked the Count for some support.

“backup?”

“Yes. Could you lend me some soldiers? I don’t need many.”

“A soldier? If he gets caught, won’t this cause problems for us too?”

“It doesn’t matter. What secrets would a mere soldier, let alone a knight, know?”

“Well, that’s true. Hmm… … .”

The count hesitated for a moment, but soon nodded willingly.

I don’t know exactly where they’re going to use it, but I thought it would be okay to provide this level of support.

This is because he was a person who took on a dangerous role without being asked to do so.

“Okay, I’ll leave it to the guards, so do as you wish.”

[Count Killim accepts your request.]

[You can now freely command some of the soldiers of the territory!]

“thank you!”

“Haha, I’m looking forward to the results.”

* * *

After finishing his conversation with the Count, Isin went straight to find the guards.

“I heard from the Count. He needs soldiers?”

“Yes. How many people can you take?”

“twenty.”

“Um… please give me everything.”

[Draft 20 soldiers.]

[Caution!]

[Whenever casualties occur among soldiers, a large amount of public service points are deducted.]

The only reason why Lee Shin worked so hard to collect public service points was to meet the lord.

But since he had already achieved that goal, the merit points had no more meaning to him.

That means there is virtually no penalty!

It didn’t matter how harshly they treated the soldiers.

“… … !”

Jeong Yu-ra turned her head in surprise and looked at Lee Shin with an uneasy look.

Although he didn’t say anything, I could tell what he was trying to say just by looking at his expression.

‘What are you going to do this time…?’

Instead of just giving a few words, Lee Shin showed it through his own actions.

As soon as he left the territory, he drew his sword and said this to his soldiers.

“I will now tell you your roles.”

“Oh, yes. What is it?”

“I’m a prisoner.”

“Yes. … … No, yes?”

“… … ?”

A somewhat random remark.

Several question marks appeared on the foreheads of the soldiers who were listening intently.

After a while, one of the soldiers who came to his senses first cautiously raised his hand and said.

“… I’m sorry. I misheard you.”

“No way. What did I hear?”

“You said I was a prisoner.”

“Then I heard you correctly.”

“……yes?”

A soldier muttering absentmindedly.

Isin kicked him in the stomach with all his might to bring him back to his senses.

Tsk tsk!!

“Keuhuk!?”

The soldier screamed, grabbed his stomach, and fell face down.
