Frenzy Troll

He turns to Vikappa dazed and says to her, "Roland is small."

“You seem deceived. I'm sorry, but I couldn't think of a more considerate way to treat you. I apologize for that. But what else could you have done? I followed your laws and tried to respect them. ”

“I don't respect putting those maggots in my city. ”

Vikappa grunts, but Roland speaks boldly.

“I will not defile the city. Almost all of them will die in the water of the world before they have a chance. Nothing you need to worry about will happen. Rather, if things get better in the city. ”

“Better? How? ”

“I heard there were a lot of problems with those vagrants. The supplies that were meant to come to Bifrost were plundered, and they couldn't even attempt to breach the outer walls? Now I'm going to lead those troublemakers into battle. Most of them will die there, and that will be that. ”

Vikapa twitches her eyebrows. That's what Roland said.

“So don't interrupt. Let the water of the world greet the monsters. They were taken from this cruel world and cannot be taken from it. They have come all this way. Please don't even take death from them. Will you?”

Vikappa just kept her mouth shut, but Roland read the implicit consent in her eyes. Then I shouted.

“Bikappa, as Lord of Bifrost, I ask the newborn knights to bless me! ”

Soon Vikappa looked back at 300 knights.

Buried in cheer, they didn't hear the conversation until just now.

I couldn't read the hostility towards Vikappa from those crappy knights. Now their eyes were overflowing with only expectation and hope.

Eventually, Vikappa said.

“Bless the knights who are appointed! And the privilege of that new identity is · · · · · · ·"

Bikappa gave them a list of privileges, including the right to accompany an attendant. When she heard that, she was really relieved.

As Vikappa continues to recite, Lollan looks at Osron.

‘Now he's the problem. ’

Roland has also doubted Osron's intention to support the poor. I someday considered it an investment in preparation for the uprising, or a money laundering for peacekeeping.

‘I'm going to take that potential insurgent to his limbs. Osron didn't have anything to say to me. He told me most of them were going to die, but he was just giving them his blessing. Why? "

That made Roland very nervous.

What the hell is the Cardinal's plot?

From the outside, I could not imagine the intention. Osron merely meddled in situations that might lead him to be more advantageous.

Osron told the kid standing next to him, Angie, who was looking forward to everything around him right now.

“Take a good look, Angie. It's a sight most people never see in their whole lives. This experience is the treasure of life. It is the true fortune. ”

“Yes, Your Grace. ”

To this end, I was as gentle as a priest. However, the following words were not true:

Osron whispers small.

“And let me give you some advice. Think of those 300 new knights, · · · · · · · they're all more than knights in bandits. Don't come near me if you don't ignore me openly. Stay close to Lord Roll. Do you understand, Angie? ”

Only Roland, who has a particularly good hearing, listens to Angie. I could hardly bear to frown.

"I've made a rather inspiring appearance, but it's hard to impress that cardinal, isn't it?" After all, that priest's personality. ’

As he kicks his tongue, Roland looks at someone who looks just like Angie.

‘Apart from Osron, there are more personality bombers. ’

Someone covered up like Amaric is standing next to the group. He was small as a child.

It looks like Amaric or Alonso's acolyte at first glance, but it isn't.

That little one was literally a dwarf. Nibelung, a dwarf in the tribal sense. He also decided to follow this expedition.

While spending indefinitely on the ground, a punitive strike broke out over eighty-five floors of water in the world.

It was insanely fast compared to before. Given the speed at which the news is being delivered, it may have already gone up.

Perhaps it was enough to reach a hundred floors in one go with this search.

I brought the dwarf in for such a situation.

It was unavoidable but uneasy. Maybe the existence of a real Dwarf can cause a commotion in the courtyard of everyone's quest for Dwarf treasure.

Besides, the dwarf's personality is the problem.

Roland peered at the dwarf and prayed.

‘Do not betray the obvious. Show me a betrayal that won't betray me, please. ’

After that, it was a triumph. Under the approval of Earl Bifrost, 300 knights and his followers made thousands of vagrants their own attendants.

As such, thousands have passed through the gates of Bifrost.

“Finally. ”

A vagrant looks around, but I can't let him stay here.

The vagrant's wife will stay downtown with the support of Cardinal Osron. However, the vagrant himself had to be placed in the world immediately.

Soon after reaching the root of the world, a cheer rang out among the vagrants. But there was no time to delay.

Roland gives the order right away.

“Come on, let's go. ”

At the root of the world water, stairs were once again built. Earl Bifrost, who came to escort thousands of people aboard, hands him a parlor.

“I know you've had a lot of hard times, but good bye. Warriors!”

And I swallowed the words, "Do not come back."

Vikappa lay on her bed in fear of returning to her castle. I was exhausted.

The visit suddenly opened. I glanced at it and it was a barefoot woman.

“Are you done? ”

“For now. Morgana. ”

Vikappa grumbles at Morgana.

A few days ago, Vikappa asked me to burn 6,000 survivors outside the walls again.

Morgana refused the request. You don't want to stretch your tail too long.

Morgana asked.

“How was it?”

“It was a series of things I never understood. While the heroes were in attendance, an angel saw the judgment. Does that make any sense? Why would a Valkyrie get involved in a fight between mercenaries and beggars? ”

“You can't stop them from getting in the way. And what about his heroes? As you feared, he was working with Osron to drive you away? ”

Vikapa hesitates to answer Morgana's question.

“It wasn't. Especially not his Roland, which makes more sense than I expected. I knew very well what I was worried about. He said he was going to take the maggots to the water of the world and consume them. ”

Morgana chuckles.

“Am I right? ”

“Yes, when Roland was playing with the giant, he seemed like an unworthy monster, but at least he seemed to be able to communicate. Like you said, Morgana. Thanks to you, I was convinced that Osron wasn't the only ones threatening me. So again, can't you kill him? ”

Morgana smiles.

“I told you no. ”

“Unlike back then, now his heroes are out of his league? Osron is defenseless now. ”

“You can't do that. I don't kill my dealers. Even old business partners. And he's a Mediahn, right? I don't want to kill Frey's direct family. ”

“Are you afraid of suffering? ”

“Yes. I won't retaliate right now, but just in case." ”

“Is it the same reason you value Gunnar's oath? Afraid of misfortune? I've never seen anyone take that oath seriously like you. An oath that can never be broken. Isn't that the most unbreakable oath ever? ”

As a banker, Vikappa met many debtors.

Those who came to borrow money pledged to make amends, and Shui also put his mouth to rest. Those who broke their vows were taken care of by Vikappa's mercenaries, but some of them escaped safely.

From that experience, Vikappa's vow of silence was just the sound of the wind. However, that witch, who had outlived Vikappa, seemed to have substantial effect on her oath.

Morgana said.

“If you want to live long, you must not lie or betray. Once cracked credit is very difficult to recover. ”

“I agree. As a banker. But is credit important to a witch, not a bank? ”

“Of course.”

“Even the gods would betray and lie. Odin did. Why, when Odin bound the famous Wolf Fenrir with a magical rope, did he seduce him and tied him up? ”

Morgana seriously mutters.

“The price for that betrayal will come back to Odin one day. ”

“Not enough missing persons? ”

“Yes. Even if Odin returns, you will pay for your treachery. Since Odin's deception, Fenrir has been sharpening his fangs for a thousand years. And his father, Loki, was released. Fenrir will be released soon. Perhaps the wolf will have his revenge. To swallow a traitor in one bite. ”

Vikappa was not interested in saying that. Mythical monsters and gods. They're out of reach. I was more interested in what was around me.

“Let's get down to business, Morgana. What else would I like to discuss with you · · · · · ·"

In Bikappa's words, Morgana expressed her colors.

“Tops? Can we do this later? Where am I supposed to go? ”

“Going? Where? ”

“World number.”

Vikappa opens her eyes wide.

“Why there? ”

“For the treasure of the Dwarves. I have something to covet. You know Tarnhelm? It's a nasty thing that insults almost every shape-shifter. ”

“I've heard of it. You're going to get it? ”

“Yes, because that's what I kidnapped a dwarf for. I don't think he's in my hands right now, but I still think I have a chance. We'd better hurry if we're going to catch up. Goodbye, then. ”

Along with that, the woman grew smaller and turned into a raven.

The crow whipped and flew out of the window. Towards the root of the world water you see there.

* * * * * * *

The lift was unavailable while 4,000 people were on the move. I had to walk from the first floor to the front line.

We're all over the entrance.

The Knights of Lollan walk out of the lower floors of the world.

Moji mutters.

“It's been a long time, and the landscape has changed considerably. ”

There would have been no need to warn the wolves not to be eaten anymore. As a result, the pile of remains and warnings disappeared from the bottom floor here.

Instead, shops lined up alongside each other stood out.

You hear the sound of convoys coming from everywhere.

“A treasure map! A treasure map! ”

There were many suspicious items, as well as necessities and medicines. What stood out the most were the monstrous remains everywhere.

“Stuffed! Stuffed is cheap! ”

Jason looked at the dried harpy stuffed material and was frightened at the price.

“Three thousand dollars? You've got to be kidding me. It cost me a farm. Who bought that? ”

The stuffed animal got angry. I've seen the size of this herd and the knights leading it. I soon smiled.

“Oh, my Lord. If you want to buy it, you can buy it cheaper. ”

“Oh, no! ”

Aside from the Harpies, many monsters have been sold, fur and stuffed.

Wooden elephant ivory, winged tiger fur, cannibal ostrich egg shells, stuffed horn rats, malcola cubs captured alive and trapped in cages, etc.

Suddenly, a mira appears in Roland's eyes. I thought it was a man, but it was a troll mummy.

Couldn't resist, and Lollan frowns.

Amaric bites.

“Why the long face, Lord Roland? ”

I couldn't confess that I got confused by the Trolls that killed me. Wouldn't be like Roland, the valiant knight.

Lollang replies like an innocent knight.

“I don't like this view. You sell off your prey from the occupied territory? Conquerors' behavior. They've been pretending that what's happening in the water of the world is not war, but conquest. ”

Amaric smiles and says:

“But doesn't everyone look lively? Since the arrival of the three heroes, the lower floors of the world have been completely safe. It's all thanks to heroes. It's just three appearances that made that change. I think you should be proud of that. For giving me so much. ”

All of a sudden, Lollant looks good.

“What a positive outlook. ”

“And me, too. I thank you on their behalf as one of us who has been blessed. ”

Roland laughs.

“Enough. Will you make a feast at this rate? That's it. There's nothing to give in the yard anyway. ”

“What do you mean, you can't? How much did I get? ”

“Remember, the only treasure we're looking for is a golden apple? ”

“Yes, of course. ”

“Don't you want that, Amaric? A golden apple is a potion that can lift all diseases and curses, even for rejuvenation. Maybe it can cure leprosy. ”

Amaric takes his answer seriously.

“I don't want to. You want to heal Queen Osma, don't you? I will never covet it, and I will tell you in advance. When Queen Osma crumbles, the Mediahn family loses money. It's a national crisis. If a leper eats it to cure a skin disease, it's treason, of course it's a trafficking act. I swear to you, I will never do that. ”

“Then I swear it to Gunnar, too. If you get one more golden apple from Queen Osma, it's yours. ”

Amaric opens his eyes wide. I was unable to speak for a moment, and then my head sank.
