Honest Trap – 2
Read at noblemtl.com
Just hearing Maid’s voice made Caled almost out of his mind.A feeling of inferiority towards Maid from the first time we met.
The envy of the guy who overcame all kinds of obstacles and craftsmanship and built a steady reputation.
An overwhelming difference that will not be an opponent in a battle of fame now.
The long-accumulated anger burns in his chest.
‘Chi, let’s calm down.’
First of all, you need to check where the voice is coming from.
He looked around quickly.
Soon we could see the communication marbles installed next to the fountain in the center of the village.
‘It is different from the normal communication marble voice. That’s right, did you do something magical?’
In this way, he must have addressed the Continental people in that muddy battle.
Then Maid over the communication bead spoke again.
– As a warrior who has been recognized by all of you, I sincerely pray for everyone’s well-being and peace today.
Well, such an unfamiliar sound.

Kayle spit.
However, the reaction of those around him was very different, even if it was different from him.
“It’s Maid.”
“It’s a new thing, but isn’t your voice really good?”
“He had a very handsome face.”
“Shh. I can’t hear it. Lower your voice.”
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Maid spoke again.– Today I would like to make an important announcement to you.
But before that, I have something to show you.
As a reminder, this is a scene from a conversation I had with my Majesty the Emperor, the owner of the Empire.
I had an interview with His Majesty after the last great flood was stopped.
And I’ve reported many secrets of the world that I’ve discovered so far.
Your Majesty and I have agreed that these secrets should be known to the people of all continents.
The fact that you know the truth of the world itself will be a huge blow to the Demon Lord of Lies.
As in the Flood, this time you are saving yourself.
“Sobbing.”
There are already people around who are showing tears.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Maid also proclaimed that humanity must save itself during the Flood.For ordinary people who were always in a position to be saved from someone, those words were very heartbreaking.
When I heard the same story as back then, I couldn’t help but burst into tears.
Kyle was nervous.
‘What are you going to do?’
-Now, I will show you the secrets of the world through a video.
In an instant, Cale’s vision changed.
‘Append View!’
This is a magic that Kayld once experienced during the Tetra earthquake.
From the changed view, Maid was talking to the emperor.
So far there is nothing surprising. Face-to-face with the emperor was something he did too.
What was really surprising was the fact that he was showing that magic to the people of all continents at the same time.
“uh? Something has changed.”
“You just said that the hero has something to show you. Look at that.”
“Hey. It’s really cool. I felt it last time, but how is this possible? Can a warrior use magic?”
“To be precise, last time was a fantasy. He said this was true.”
“Isn’t this probably the work of the Lady of Coercion?”
At someone’s last words, Caled bit his lip.
Of course, coercion… … No, it must have been the work of the Wicked Witch, Neryl.
‘But was the witch like this? No, it can’t be.’
No doubt she was also using her fame as her power.
Why can’t I do that?
Kayle shook his head and focused on the video again.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Maid said in the video.“Well, where should I start?”
not from where
He said everything from start to finish.
Idria tried to gain power by turning Caled Wake into a fake hero.
The celestial god was actually a human named Adin Fres.
Even the unknown monster called Velocian is sleeping in the basement of the Imperial Castle.
even… … .
“So you mean the Velocian is trying to raise a new Kaleid?”
“Yes. Idria and Velocian were separated. Like Idria, Velocian is the Demon King of Lies.”
“… … .”
“Well, to tell the difference, should I say the Great Demon King? Anyway, Velocian is trying to use Kayle as a puppet.”
At that point, Maid’s lips twitched.
“I can say that Cale was once a competitor, but now I have to say it with a lot of empathy. He is the enemy of mankind.”
“… … .”
“How can I be the same human being and stand on the side of the Demon Kings? Twice as well.”
“Well.”
“It’s not because I’m angular, but if you ask anyone in the world, they’ll give you the same answer. He is garbage.”
The emperor greatly sympathized with that statement.
“Did you ever think of such a person as a hero? I apologize on behalf of the people of the Empire.”
“Your Majesty, please withdraw your words. This is a work done by the Demon Lord of Lies. It is rather strange not to be deceived.”
“But I was relieved. Because there is a new hope for us mankind. That’s Maid.”
“Hmmm.”
Kayle staggered.
This video is dangerous.
By driving Adin’s remaining fame to himself, Velocian was able to somehow regain about 800,000.
But at the same time he advised.
You have to be careful, as your reputation may deteriorate again.
‘Gee, damn it. Are you coming out like this?’
what to do
Shouldn’t we kill Maid before it’s too late?
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Meanwhile, the video ended.Said Maid again through the communication bead.
-everyone. did you see
I risk my name, my honor as a warrior, and everything I have built up so far.
Everything I said in the video is true.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Murmur murmur.The surroundings start to get noisy.
“You seem to have heard too much.”
“I want to know what to talk about.”
“Of course it’s Kaleid! Idriana Velocian isn’t human after all. Kyle is human.”
“right. Humans are holding hands with the Demon King.”
“Oh my gosh… … .”
Kyle felt his stomach churn.
He struggled to find the back alley with limp footsteps.
“Wow, wow.”
And there he vomited bitter gastric juice.
Nothing came out because he was on an empty stomach.
That made Calde even more displeased.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Maid’s voice continued as his vomiting continued.– Soon, I and my party members will fight Idria.
stand tall.
Kayle’s body hardened.
-I will make the final preparations for him. The preparation site was set as the ‘starting line’.
That’s right. A place where a low-level man named Adin served as a heavenly god and was banned.
The starting line is the place where the lies that have deceived you all began.
If I had to pick the place with the most lies in the world, it would definitely be number one.
There, I plan to strengthen my resolve to face Idria.
After you have made up your mind, the fight against Idria begins.
I want to show you that.
Let’s watch the Demon King fall together.
I earnestly request you once again.
You don’t believe me.
Believe in yourself.
Don’t let any lies shake you anymore.
If you do, I will bring victory to mankind.
Thank you all. have a good day.
drop.
Finally, Maid’s voice like that stopped.
Kayle stole his lips.
I wrote it by hand, but I don’t care.
‘My, my reputation? Is my reputation okay?’
He doesn’t check fame like Maid.
But I knew it intuitively.
Now that his reputation is falling dangerously fast.
‘What if I kill Maid even now? You said you were going to stay at the starting line, didn’t you?’
Kayle isn’t completely stupid either.
He realized that Maid’s speech was meant to entice him.
trap. A very obvious pitfall.
‘However… … .’
Could the situation be reversed if Maid was killed?
… … .
It is possible!
‘Velocian handed over the fame of Ardin to me.’
Isn’t it the same
If I kill Maid, won’t Maid’s fame be passed on to me as well?
Still, Velocian had told him to hide.
What should I do?
dump.
He sat down in the back alley.
And he shook his head in pain.
“damn. Shit! What the hell am I supposed to do!”
Having dug a trap disguised as a speech, we immediately moved to the starting line.
It is night when we arrive.
After disembarking the wagon at Agril, we set out to camp.
Neril said as they sat around the campfire.
“It’s a new feeling.”
“what?”
“Every time you come here, you’ve always been very nervous.”
After all, I risked my life to visit Adin when they tried to tear down the oracle or when they came to recover Agril.
Richel said while fiddling with the trumpet for nothing.
“Fufu. Shall we blow? I’m actually pretty good at playing instruments.”
“yes?”
“Actually, my mother… … .”
Serena rushes in.
“It’s okay to brag again.”
“It’s a pure fact.”
“I still want to hear the performance. Because it’s so dark.”
everyone looks at me
Well, it doesn’t matter that Ardin is also dead.
I nodded, and Lissel took the trumpet to her mouth.
-Bam. Paa.
The tone she made was a bit pathetic, yet emotional.
I’ve only heard sounds that are used only in places like army marches and the opening of parades, but even a trumpet could make such a painful sound.
We continued our conversation with Lissel’s music as a snack.
Ardwin asked.
“Will Kayle really come?”
“It will come. undoubtedly.”
“Because your brother’s speech is going to be eroding his reputation in real time, right? So far I agree with you… … .”
He scratched his head.
“It was so easy to spot even a stupid Kyledra. That this is a trap.”
“Well. To be honest, I did it openly. He even told me where to wait.”
“Even if you are in a state of full of confidence thanks to Velocian, how many times have you already been beaten by your brother?
I laughed bitterly.
“none… … I’d like to say, but I don’t think so. I don’t think Kayle would even think of coming.”
“yes?”
“But he must have found a glimmer of hope.”
Fame falling in real time.
Of course, he won’t be able to confirm his reputation numerically, but you will be able to feel it through your skin no matter where you go.
that he is constantly being pushed by me.
The cornered guy will think of one hope.
“Killing me. That’s hope for Kayle.”
“yes? ah!”
“okay. By killing Ardin, Velocian handed over his dregs of fame to Cald. You cannot pass the fame of a living person.”
“… … .”
“The more his reputation deteriorates, the more he will end up clinging to me. They will kill me and steal my reputation. That would be his last hope.”
Hope is really scary.
If you think rationally, you shouldn’t fall into the obvious trap, but hope paralyzes that natural thought.
Offense took my word.
“It’s not going to be just you.”
“yes?”
“Aren’t we going to have a high reputation in our own way? Speaking of which, what was our reputation like?”
Xenia said in a playful tone.
“Our first and most reliable warrior. Please confirm.”
[Ah-oh. really. In the beginning, the first hero was Impelium.]
“How’s Mr. Trail’s reaction?”
“It’s nice to hear, so please tell me often.”
“Puhaha.”
Trail yelled at me when I did.
But soon the screen popped up.
＜Made Mohan Cumulative Fame: 1,220,900＞
＜Neryl Slaine Accumulated Fame: 727,160＞
＜Xenia Side Cumulative Fame: 714,390＞
＜Ardwin Ain Cumulative Fame: 708,500＞
＜Accumulated Fame of Offense Days: 690,970＞
＜Accumulated Resell Bint Reputation: 689,400＞
＜Cumulative Fame by Serene Magnus: 676,880＞
Offense shakes his head when I tell him the fame number.
“it serves you right.”
“what are you talking about.”
“If the bait of our trap is one Maid Mohan, even as Kayld, he would be reluctant. But there are six people here with about 700,000 fame.”
For a moment, my face hardens.
Offense grinned.
“Did you not think of it?”
“Uh, huh.”
“He wants to kill us all, not just Maid. And he’d like to put all our fame on him. If so, how much… … Whoa, I can’t figure it out.”
I was rolling my head, too, and Serene counted her fingers and opened her mouth.
“It’s over 5.4 million. 5,428,200 to be exact.”
It’s a staggering number.
