Inside An Adult Game As A Former Hero chapter 110

EP.110 Queen Maker

“…you can even come in. The escort driver can only accompany up to four people per person.”

When Lupus had finished speaking, the messenger bowed his head.

It’s to keep polite, but more than that, it’s because he couldn’t stand the heavy air in the tent and the stinging gaze towards him.

“…It’s not enough to keep you waiting for hours, so now you’re limiting the number of people who can enter together.”

One of the men sitting at the table mumbled.

“Is this the meaning of the Princess?”

Callion Oller.

The de facto ruler of the southern part of the Prona Kingdom, the eldest son of the Oler family, showed his displeasure without filtering.

The messenger opened his mouth to say something, but then closed it. Because he was commanded not to answer whatever they asked.

“Looks right.”

And Kalion accepted that silence as an affirmation.

“haha! It seems that the new Queen is quite afraid of us.”

The name of the man who smiled cheerfully as he looked at Lorian was Louis Sentry.

He is the eldest son of the Sentry Counts who rule the eastern part of the Prona Kingdom.

“It would be more accurate to view it as a wise choice.”

The brown-haired handsome man shook his head.

Lorian Carter.

He is the powerful heir of the Kalita Kingdom, and one of the only four warriors on the continent.

When he spoke, all the nobles who were whispering among themselves paid attention to him.

It was a passage that properly showed his place in this union.

He continued, subtly enjoying the stillness.

“But for us, it’s a risky story. There are too few people to enter.”

It was Lorian and his party members, Callion and Louise, and their four escort knights who allowed Lupus to enter.

“It will be rare, but if we do something impure over there, we will have no choice but to be helpless. How is this different from asking him to come in through the mouth of a tiger?”

“…”

“Go back. Go and tell us again.”

“all right.”

It was the moment when the messenger, who was lightly bowed down, turned his back and was about to leave the tent.

“If nothing changes, you better not come back.”

One word that Lorian spit softly turned into a dagger and flew to the messenger. The messenger broke out in a cold sweat and swallowed his saliva.

“…I will keep that in mind.”

The messenger bowed once more towards the inside of the tent and left for the castle. When the messenger left, Lorian’s expression, which had been rigidly fixed, also loosened slightly.

Seeing that, Lewis flattered quickly.

“After all, those who inherit the royal lineage are different no matter what. Your voice overflows with dignity. When you just spoke cold words to the messenger, my heart was pounding, haha.”

“I was just saying what I had to say, but it’s a shame that you popped it up like that.”

Lorian accepted Lewis’ blatant father-in-law with a light smile. Other nobles who had been paying attention to the prince began to flatter him to get his attention.

The tent, which had not been so cold until before, was

had a laugh

So time passed.

‘They don’t even have a belly button.’

At first, Laurenne, who was happy as if she was being flattered, began to get tired of it.

There is such a thing as moderation for anything, but that’s…

‘Your brother will listen to it in moderation and then throw it away, so what do you keep listening to?’

Looking at Lorian who skillfully took in his father, Laurenne let out a small sigh. she knows she too I mean, it’s all for managing images and personal connections.

But it wasn’t just today that made her think like this.

Lately, Lorian has been more likely to hold a pen than a sword.

He was certain that he would inherit the throne, so he started working slowly for later.

Building a strong support base is definitely a good thing.

‘Still, there is such a thing as priorities.’

Laurenne didn’t like Lorian’s recent move.

Because, as I said before, he teased the pen more than the sword?

not.

He did not neglect his martial arts.

Periodically, he went out to subjugate monsters, practiced every night so that his skills did not become dull, and recently he had acquired great equipment.

Far from declining, it became much stronger than before.

So, what is the real reason for Lauren’s bad mood?

The answer was not difficult.

‘…even if I ask you to fight me, I won’t do it because I’m busy.’

She felt sorry for her older brother who had neglected her on the pretext of being busy.

While Laurenne had a fat face, a knight guarding the front of the tent came inside. Lorian saw the article and raised his right hand. The nobles kept their mouths shut as if they had squeezed it.

It was the moment when Laurenne was about to put on an astonishing expression on her face.

“The Hero Cloud has arrived.”

The knight’s words, to be exact, the man’s name he spoke of shoved into Laurenne’s ear. She widened her eyes as if she had been struck in the back of the head with her hammer.

She wasn’t the only one surprised.

The other nobles in the tent, as well as Lorian, were agitated for a moment.

It’s not unusual for aides from both camps to meet and talk. However, it is true that it is strange for the enemy’s staff to come to the friendly camp.

Of course, we are not at war right now.

You can come if you want.

Assuming that the liver is swollen.

“You are coming out boldly. great. Bring it in.”

Shortly after the article went out, a man with a catch came in. His appearance was the most conspicuous in the tent.

Warrior Cloud.

In the past, he was a hero of insignificance and beyond, but now he is a man who literally works miracles.

All attention was focused on him.

Among them was Lauren.

‘Cloud…!’

A devilish man who trampled on her innocence and innocence!

Lauren glared at him with warm eyes. Perhaps he could feel her gaze, he turned her head towards her.

‘Huh?!’

Confused Lauren.

Cloud chuckled at her and gave her a wink. It happened so quickly that no one else could see it, but she did see it.

‘Hey, that lip rapist child?!’

Lauren’s eyes trembled.

But when she frowned, he had already looked elsewhere.

Cloud left behind the trembling Laurenne and sat down on the chair the knight had brought. When I leaned my back on the backrest, for some reason, a slightly poor posture was created.

Lorian was the first to speak in the silence that lasted for a while.

“Long time no see. The last thing I saw was…”

“The greeting is done, let’s get straight to the point.”

Cloud cut off Lorian’s words with an open, annoying voice. His disrespect brought tears to those who had admired Lorian. However, Lorian, who was the real party, only slightly wiggled his eyebrows.

“Did you ask to increase the number of people who can enter? I will tell you from the conclusion. no.”

“Why?”

“Aren’t you asking because you don’t know?”

“I didn’t want such a vague answer. Please explain why we can’t provide a resting place for the staff of the army going to support the kingdom of Alitia.”

“After playing in the military, are you kidding me with a cause now?”

Cloud looked at Lorian with an absurd face. When that expression merged with his slightly ill-mannered posture, it created a great synergy.

“Hero Cloud. Your behavior is a little rude. Although they are the same warriors, Lorian-sama is the Prince of Kalita Kingdom, His Majesty. Please be polite.”

One of the nobles of the Kalita Kingdom, unable to hold back his anger, spoke as if poking at him.

Lorian clicked his tongue at his words, and Cloud responded as if he had waited.

“Rude? Are you arguing about disrespect to the subject of silently stationing an army in front of someone else’s house?”

“…We are also sorry for that.”

Cloud smirked at the apple that didn’t look like a noble’s apple.

“Did the sorry guys peck our messenger like that? As soon as the child arrived, his legs loosened and he sat down. That’s why I came all the way here without writing a letter.”

Childish behavior that grabs the tail of a horse.

But no one objected to his words.

Even if this plan was successful, it did not mean that Cloud would fall. Judging by his rapid growth, it is highly likely that he will continue to win and win in the future.

That’s why I didn’t want to be photographed by him for nothing.

Just because you’re a Lorian doesn’t mean you can always protect them.

Maybe if things get complicated, I might just throw out a family member.

So the nobles kept their mouths shut.

Seeing the nobles who kept silence, Lorian sighed.

“I am truly sorry for you and the princess. But we couldn’t help it either. A request for support from the Kingdom of Alitia seemed very urgent. I was just thinking about moving fast, so I forgot the basics. We apologize again.”

Lorian bowed his head lightly.

At his apology, Cloud’s attitude grew colder rather than moderate.

After erasing his playfulness, he spoke coldly.

“You know how absurd this is, right? It’s like you declared war on the Prona Kingdom. It is a place no less than the temple where the Four Heavenly Kings were defeated.”

“I had no intention of doing that.”

“Even if it wasn’t intentional, the outcome won’t change. I will send a letter to the Empire and the Church to formally protest this matter.”

“I would say I was wrong, but it would be quite annoying.”

“What bothers you? Wherever you look, this is your fault.”

“I know. However, if our army is to regroup here, the kingdom of Alitia will suffer devastating damage from the orcs. They know we are coming.”

“Ah, the trouble is that it’s not you, it’s the Kingdom of Alitia. Because both you and I will bite and sag to repair the damage. But do you really call this a threat?”

A cold conversation.

The nobles in the tent rolled their eyes and looked at the atmosphere as if a sword fight would occur at any moment.

If a sword fight occurs between the two heroes, they will be the first to be swept away and die, so be sensitive.

Fortunately, that atmosphere did not last long.

“I had no intention of intimidating. I was just saying that this could cause great losses to all three kingdoms.”

“If we go beyond this, we will lose.”

“Then we will make up for that loss.”

“how?”

“I know the damage that the Four Heavenly Kings inflicted on the city is great. To the extent that citizens do not even have basic food, clothing and shelter.”

We will provide food from among them.

The supply was generously priced in case of various situations, so it was sufficient to cover it.

That was Lorian’s suggestion.

Cloud seemed to think about it for a while, and then added one more condition.

“That is not enough.”

“…do you want more? Please tell me. As long as it is not unreasonable, I will accept it.”

“Did you ask for a way? Then pay the toll.”

This time, Lorian was in trouble.

Again it wasn’t long.

“all right. let me pay How long would it be?”

When Lorian accepted the last offer, Cloud smiled.

“Welcome to Lupus. You can negotiate the details.”

It was a smile that was so bright that I couldn’t find the cold expression on his previous expression.

* * *

something is not clear

Lorian thought so.

Once the plan worked out.

The number of people allowed to enter the city has been adjusted.

As desired, all nobles could enter the city. Instead, the number of escort knights each could bring was reduced to two, but there was no problem.

Because it’s important that we all came together.

He also succeeded in secretly distributing food while pretending to apologize. With their overwhelming quantity and quality, it would be no wonder that they seized the flow of food in the city.

And to seize the flow of food in such a collapsed city was to seize power.

From that point of view, the toll negotiations were a good thing for them.

Because time was on their side.

‘…Strange.’

It’s good that the plan works out.

But it works out so well.

Like a pre-made play…

The doubts that had continued to grow like that were largely dissipated the moment he entered lupus.

‘The damage was more serious than expected.’

The streets were full of beggars begging for just a penny to the extent that the capital of a kingdom was insignificant.

‘It must have been a lot of rush.’

To the extent that if I saw an apple in front of me, I grabbed it and ate it.

If so, what you need to do is simple.

Just make it sweet so you don’t realize that the apple is poisoned.

Yes, that’s it.

Then you can…

‘Something is still hanging.’

what? What’s the problem?

As the accident continued, Lorian immediately remembered the conversation he had with Cloud in the tent.

He must have said that he had come in the middle of writing the letter.

‘Where did you write that letter?’

Maybe that letter is a variable.

Lorian, who wanted to thoroughly remove the variable from the plan, sat next to Cloud and secretly inquired.

“Oh, what? Freelite.”

He answered lightly so that it would be insignificant to turn around to see if his intentions were uncovered.

“Right. Sorry for asking something…”

It was so light that I almost fell over it.

stand tall.

Lorian’s steps stopped.

“…what did you just say? Who are you writing to?”

“Did you not hear me? This is a letter to Frilite.”

Is it a mistake to say that when you say the name Frillitera, you seem to have subtly gave you strength?

no. That’s not what’s important now.

Lorian frowned and shot.

“Why are you writing to Frilite? I know she is very busy. The time to receive your letter or something like-”

“I know, he’s busy. However, if you have received a letter, you should write a reply.”

Thump – Lorian felt his heart drop.

“The letter… . got it..? you..? to her..?”

Even in the cold atmosphere, his unshakable voice shook violently.

It’s ridiculous.

Frilite has never written a letter to anyone before. When he had to write a letter, he had someone else write the script.

She could have written a letter to that man…

“Really. Wanna see?”

Cloud pulled out a square piece of paper from his pocket.

It was an envelope.

Because of how precious it was, even the wax used to seal the letter was completely attached.

“look. Is it real?”

He tapped the center of the wax with his index finger.

The pattern engraved in the center of the wax seal was a pattern that even Lorian knew well.

How could you not know?

It is the family of a woman whom I have longed for all my life.

Lorian bowed his head.

I couldn’t believe it.

I absolutely didn’t want to believe it.

However, no matter how much reality is denied, it does not mean that something that never happened will happen.

He had to admit it.

Frillite wrote the first letter.

Lorian, to Cloud, not him.

My heart is pounding and my eyes are watery.

He bit his lip to hold back the water dripping, but it was not enough to stop the blood from his heart.

drip- drip-

Tears fell one by one and wet the floor.

‘Why… you always decorate her first memories.’

After light touch and drinking, now even letters.

What’s next?

Just imagining it makes my heart throb.

“what. why are you like this?”

Cloud’s voice seemed bewildered.

It’s disgusting.

Considering the ridicule he had seen last time, it is clear that he knows Lorian’s love, but pretending to be so naive is unbearably disgusting.

‘Wait, you know…?’

Lorian’s head spins rapidly, recalling the past.

When talking in the tent, Cloud was sarcastic in a soft, scratching voice.

Lorian thought it was a psychological warfare he was playing to take control of the conversation.

But what if not?

What if it was just a base for referring to the word letter rather than psychological warfare?

“Hey, are you crying?”

Lorian raised his head.

I saw Cloud’s face, desperately holding back his laughter.

“You bastard!”

Lorian couldn’t take it any longer and clenched his fists.
