Login Psychopath - Chapter 122
Only Noblemtl
Episode 122.
While Isin temporarily left Edgar’s territory, more and more users and guilds began to flock to the major cities of the Kingdom of Eton.
And among them was the Union Guild, which possessed the 8th legend, Doyle.
[Arrived at the Kingdom of Eton.]
[Arrived at the , the territory of the Kingdom of Eton.]
[This is the first entry area.]
[All stats increase by 15 for one month.]
[Caution!]
[The overall security level of the country is poor, and military power is very weak.]
[Monster waves may occur in areas with very high crime rates and little central government influence.]
“Hmm… … .”
Guildmaster Grania let out a sigh.
I already knew that the Kingdom of Eton was poor, but it felt different when I actually came there.
A warning message appears as soon as you log in!
The actual appearance of the residents around there did not look that affluent.
Even though we had arrived at a fairly large city in the Kingdom of Eton.
She thought to herself.
‘I came here after looking for a place that seemed okay… If this place is like this, then other cities must be like beggars.’
It’s a miracle that the kingdom is still maintained!
For her, who had always lived in a wealthy kingdom and was the head of a large guild, the feeling of reversal was intense.
‘… It doesn’t matter. I don’t plan on staying here any longer.’
Although she was a little flustered, she quickly came to her senses.
Then he gave instructions to the guild members one by one.
Anyway, now that we have arrived in a new kingdom, in a new territory, we need to start from the ground up again.
“I’ve arrived, what should I do now?”
“Um… … First, let’s build a guild house.”
“Right now?”
“Ah. I’ll assign someone to you, so get a building permit first. If possible, get a cost estimate as well. I’ll provide the funds as soon as I get the estimate.”
“Okay, what should I do with the rest?”
“Find out if there are any hunting grounds or dungeons nearby. If there are, find out how big they are.”
Of course, I had researched the territory in advance, but I couldn’t find detailed information even after researching it.
From now on, I had to go out and find things like that myself.
The guild members nodded.
“All right.”
“… … Ah! And, if there’s a guild that controls the hunting grounds, please tell me where they are.”
“Would you like to talk?
“If they’re on the same level as us. But if not, we’ll have to step on them in the grass so they don’t have to crawl up later.”
“Then should I find out the number of people and their levels as well?”
“Is that okay? There are other things to do. I can’t give you more people.”
“I’ll try to do it within my capabilities.”
“Okay, then. But don’t push yourself too hard. We’re still just rolling stones.”
“yes.”
Guild members move in unison following Grania’s instructions.
Although no specific instructions were given on what to do, everyone seemed familiar with this type of thing and moved about, each finding their own way to do their own thing.
This is possible because it is a union guild comprised mostly of capable people!
Grania, who had been watching the scene for a while, soon turned her head and spoke to Doyle.
“Follow me.”
“Where are you going?”
“I need to go to the guild and check what quests they have. I need to gather information as well.”
“I get it.”
It is not revealed what the main quest is, but it is essential to have connections with the nobility.
Because the fastest and most important way to obtain information was through friendship with the nobility.
And the fastest way to meet nobles is to accumulate territory reputation.
After arriving at the guild, Grania spoke to Doyle.
“I’ll go around here and gather some information, so you check out some quests that the guild can do.”
“I get it.”
“If there’s anything good, take it right away.”
“okay.”
* * *
The two, who had been going about their separate business, met again a few hours later.
“How was it? Was there anything to do?”
“… … There is, but I think I should be prepared for the notoriety to rise.”
“huh?”
“Look.”
… …
“Most of it is just like this.”
“Oh, well. It’s the Kingdom of Eton… … Well, there’s nothing I can do.”
From the moment I set foot in this kingdom, I was prepared to become infamous.
“What about you? What happened?”
“Yeah, I found out some information by throwing money around here and there… … .”
There’s quite a bit of information that I’ve found out, but here are some of the more important ones:
This place, the County of Solar, is a considerably wealthy territory compared to other territories in the kingdom.
And there is one person who is not a noble but has influence comparable to that of a lord.
“who?”
“Kaka. It’s a goblin.”
“… … A goblin is the equal of a lord? Does that make sense?”
“I thought so too, I guess it works. He’s the richest man in Yeongji.”
“No matter what…?”
Doyle expresses doubts despite Grania’s explanation.
It was a reasonable question.
Because the game’s worldview is very different from the modern capitalist world.
In a world with kings, nobles, high priests, and even various transcendent beings (gods, demons, etc.), there were often things that could not be solved with money.
“Isn’t it?”
“That’s right. But it seems like the lord borrowed a lot of money.”
“ah…….”
However, if this financial issue is directly related to the lord, it is a different story.
Lord Parker, Earl of York, was a man of luxury.
He held banquets every day and collected expensive antiques as a hobby.
Of course, it was impossible to maintain this kind of life through normal means.
I had to either cut back on spending elsewhere or borrow money.
But it would be difficult for someone who has enjoyed luxury their entire life to cut down on other expenses.
The count’s choice was to borrow money.
To Kaka, the richest man in Yeongjiae.
At this time, Kaka willingly lent money.
A huge sum of money, enough for the count to enjoy luxury.
And in return, the Count turned a blind eye to several ‘unpleasant incidents’ occurring in his estate.
We both gained something from each other!
“I guess that’s why it turned out like this. Even if he’s a count, it wouldn’t be easy to apologize to someone who lent him money.”
“power…….”
“If you use your power to suppress things, the next person to borrow money will disappear.”
“… … I see.”
From the count’s point of view, it would be difficult to make the choice of killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.
This was especially true now that I had already experienced the pleasure of spending money.
Doyle asked after thinking for a moment.
“Then wouldn’t it be okay to draw the line here?”
“Who, Kaka?”
“uh.”
“Hmm… … . Well, that’s it?”
“why?”
“We don’t know the exact relationship between Yeongju and Kaka yet. Wouldn’t we be provoking Yeongju for no reason?”
“ah…….”
That made sense.
So, the conclusion was put on hold for now.
“I think it would be better to find out more.”
“I get it.”
* * *
[There are 4 hours and 44 minutes left until arrival.]
[You can tip the coachman to advance your arrival time by 3%.]
‘There’s still a lot left.’
Since I had already given the groom a tip up to his limit, giving him more wouldn’t save much time.
Isin yawned and leaned back against the chair.
But soon after, he got up and said abruptly.
“There’s nothing to do anyway. Should I take one now?”
“what?”
“Your video.”
“Now? Here?”
“Just a simple introduction video or something.”
If it’s something like that, you can take a picture just by sitting still.
Arthur answered.
“But then, it feels completely different from your video?”
“huh?”
“My brother just beat me up without doing anything like that.”
“That’s right. I thought about it, and I think it might be a good idea for him to go in that direction.”
This was the conclusion that Lee Shin reached after much thought, in response to Jung Yu-ra’s words that she didn’t like strange things.
If your videos are spicy, Jung Yu-ra’s videos tend to be mild.
Wouldn’t this be less of a burden?
Lee Shin asked Jeong Yu-ra.
“how is it.”
“Yeah? I’m fine.”
As expected by Lee Shin, it was not a bad story at all for Jeong Yu-ra.
However, she also wondered whether something like this would be interesting as a video.
“But will it get any views?”
“Should I come out?”
“… … Something like my introduction video???”
“uh.”
Of course, you can’t just take a picture, you have to take it well so that it comes out well.
After checking the arrival time once again, Lee Shin spoke to Jeong Yu-ra.
“I have a lot of time left. Do you want to do it right away?”
“I wonder?”
“I’ll take the picture.”
[Recording begins.]
Arthur starts recording right away.
A brief self-introduction by Jeong Yu-ra and a Q&A with Arthur followed.
Filming is going smoothly!
However, Lee Shin, who had been watching quietly from the side, soon shook his head and stepped between the two.
“… No, it’s too bland.”
“yes?”
“Then there’s no stimulation. Get out of the way. I’ll do it.”
“Ah, yes… … .”
How do you plan on adding excitement to your introductory video?
Arthur suddenly had doubts about Isin’s words, but he decided to step aside for now.
I thought that if it was Lee Shin, there must be a way.
And this was indeed the case.
However, the method was beyond Arthur’s imagination.
Lee Shin, who was sitting in front of Jeong Yu-ra in place of Arthur, coughed in vain and spoke.
[Recording begins.]
“Okay, first, introduce yourself again.”
“Introduce yourself?”
“Age, name, and so on. Basic stuff. I’ll ask you the rest, so just answer as you see fit.”
“… … ? Oh, I see.”
Why are you asking me to do something I’ve already done?
Jung Yu-ra felt puzzled, but did as Lee Shin told her.
“Uh… Me.”
“Look at the camera.”
“Where is the camera?”
“No, but this is the recording time. Just think of it as being around here.”
“okay.”
Jung Yu-ra slightly raises her head and looks at the camera.
At this moment, Lee Shin slightly pulled the zoom.
“Just right.”
“Oh, really?”
Strange composition.
She hesitated for a moment and then began to introduce herself.
“Uh… … My name is Yura.”
First, the name.
Then, Isin continued asking questions one by one.
“Ms. Yura.”
“yes.”
“Is there a reason why you started playing games?”
“I just started playing it because I saw a lot of advertisements for it and I was curious about what kind of game it was.”
“I see. Have you ever played a game like this before?”
“no.”
“So this is your first time playing Avala Online?”
“Yes. I’m a beginner.”
Lee Shin nodded.
“Because it’s my first time, I’m immature.”
“that’s right.”
“If you keep doing it, you’ll always be scared.”
“Huh? Oh, yes. I guess so?”
“Yes. To sum it up, my name is Yura, my first time playing Avala Online, and my age is a secret. … … Okay. Let’s move on to the next question. What is your current occupation?”
“Huh? A secret? Why a secret…?”
Jeong Yu-ra tilts her head and expresses her doubts.
Well, it’s strange that they kept it a secret without even asking properly.
But the rule is that things like this are kept secret.
Lee Shin did not tell me the answer and urged me to answer.
“What is your occupation?”
“No, I’m not an art student! I’m a dark priest.”
“You’re a dark priest. What’s your most confident skill?”
“Technology? Oh, skill?”
“yes.”
“There’s nothing in particular… … .”
“Then what’s the best thing?”
“The best thing is the chain of corruption.”
“Can you please stand up a little and show me?”
“sure.”
“I’ll test the chain on the orc here.”
– Give me some credit.
‘Oh, yes.’
The filming continued like this.
Although Jeong-yu didn’t seem to notice anything strange during the process, Arthur’s face turned slightly pale from the middle.
I had a gut feeling that this wasn’t going to be a normal photoshoot!
After filming was over, Arthur whispered to Isin secretly.
“Brother, did you take the picture like this on purpose?”
“of course.”
“… … Won’t you be angry when you find out later?”
“Will you give it to me?”
“What are you going to do?!”
“What should I do? … … You should say that you asked me to do it.”
“!?!?!?”
