I'M THE NECROMANCER KING
Charter 36: Reason for the Expeditionary Team
The arrival of the group made a commotion as it walked towards the central region. It consisted of dozens of people with iron clothes dented at some point and bloodstains. Residents from outside areas who witnessed the return of the group began to fuss and sue on behalf of relatives who went along with the expedition team. They were clearly familiar with it being the members of the team that the empire had sent to go wipe out the dungeons found within the imperial territory. Relatives, brothers, lovers, among them many who participated in the team, but now in front of them is only a team of dozens of people! They need an explanation!
They screamed and tried to grab the group. It was just that they could not because the officers swiftly pushed the crowd so that the group could continue walking. It split the crowd from both sides and scrambled to ask, but they only found that the action was nothing but waste.
"Return my son! Goddamnit! You're... Restore it!!" A mother screamed hysterically and with bursting emotions she grabbed a pebble and threw it at the prince. What fortune did the mother land a pebble stone behind the prince's head.
The prince stopped and immediately fell into his thoughts. Trying to control his emotions. Then he turned and looked at his mother, saying, "Sorry."
Afterward it again walked and disappeared behind the entrance gate of the central region. The mother who was initially shocked to hear the words of the prince woke up from his shock and grew increasingly hysterical. He urged the soldiers to scramble and immediately ran towards the large door that had been closed. He banged hard on the door, begging for his son.
"Damn it! Return my son! I don't need your apology! Please give me back my son!" The mother fell and cried. Both of his hands were trembling, several bruises were visible from hitting the gate.
While the four soldiers who were standing guard at the door were reluctant to disturb the mother, they even grieved to learn that the woman was someone they knew. She's the mother of her friend, her name is Lady Miami, the owner of a sweet pastry shop in the market. And his son's name was Loy, one of the imperial soldiers.
The news spread quickly and it caused an uproar throughout the Twin Towers empire. But the kingdom took immediate action by making a public announcement. Military officials who took part in the operation stated that the dungeon targeted in the cleanup mission had encountered a technical error in measuring the level of danger. They had been mistaken that the dungeon was actually not at the level of an Eagle, but a Wolf.
The prince and his group who had just returned did not immediately go to rest, they walked towards the meeting room. There were already some old men dressed in two types, one was red and the other was blue. They were two strongholds of the Red Rose and Blue Eye armies. The two camps stood opposite each other from different sides, while the prince and his group came in the middle and went straight to the Emperor.
"Your Majesty, the Expeditionary Team came to face," Julius said after he lowered his head like a soldier saluting the emperor.
"Wake up."
Now the Emperor sat on the throne, to his left was the Baroque Advisor and to his left was Reene - the son of the Baroque. Reene himself was the emperor's elite bodyguard, he belonged to a strong person within the imperial ranks. He's a young man with a blue badge in his pocket.
"Here I ask you, Baroque Advisor. Why are you so daring to fool His Majesty?" One of the tips in blue clothes shouted at the person named Barok - another leader who stood not far on the side of the emperor's throne.
"What are you accusing me of, Minister Huang?" Baroque looked back at the old man, still in a calm state.
"You who have suggested forming this legion, you have also confirmed that the dungeon is very safe for the team of the working force. But look what you did, we lost thousands of soldiers because of you!" huang.
"Do you not know the dungeon itself a mysterious existence. I myself did not expect that the newly discovered dungeon could go that fast as it went up in level. As everyone knows, a dungeon requires a certain condition when the level of danger increases. The longer the dungeon was there the more evolved the inhabitants within it. Generally, an Eagle-level dungeon would develop into a Wolf-level power should take approximately a year, a Wolf dungeon would become ferocious at the Tiger-level for approximately five years, and the other levels above will take a long time. Similarly, with this dungeon we were facing that had only appeared a few days ago, I did not expect it to develop so quickly.
"I have never misled Your Majesty, I have sworn allegiance to the empire. And I confirmed myself by going to the dungeon directly after it was found. I've said everything back then, it only contains weak goblins."
"You're just bragging!" Huang was upset and his head veins began to show.
Baroque was the advisor of the king who had advised for this cleansing operation. He had traced the depths of the dungeon once it was discovered by the surrounding villagers and found that the dungeon was indeed only a low level and did not even have any significant difficulties if he took care of it himself. However, he had an idea to form a team of imperial troops.
As the popularity of the imperial military was declining due to the adventurous guild, he planned to deploy imperial troops to gain public trust. In this operation, of course, it only involves the military and prohibits adventurers from taking part. With success later is expected to create a balance between the military and the adventurer guild. People would more easily follow military rules and not demean the performance of the soldiers.
