The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 10 - The Problem
"G-mad!"
That's one word that came directly when he heard Chris' statement. How not, he declared that he would be a king in Re:Life. Let alone a king, being a member of the nobility among NPCs alone was already extremely difficult.
But on the other hand, if a player managed to become a noble, wealth was certain to flow so heavily. The territory given to players who become nobles can be managed and the taxes paid by the people there are also quite large.
That is why many players are competing to become nobles in order to get rich quickly.
But being a king.it was dozens of levels above ordinary nobles.
A very large area, a very large population including players within the borders of the kingdom, not least all of them are required to pay taxes. Including this myself.
Players who already have a territory can also create quests or missions to other players.
No less important is the status buff to the character.
By holding the title or title of nobility, players will receive buffs in the form of increasing some growth points and resistance to some debuff effects.
These are all very amazing benefits.
"But...is it that easy to become a king? Is it only necessary to bring down a kingdom and claim that it is now under it? I don't know, I'll think about it next time."
I also shifted the news to search for news or other interesting information. Of course I keep calling new goblins every half hour.

"What about the terms?" Asked a young man who was standing next to that already broken throne. A big, burly man sat on it.
"Pretty bad. I'll share the information with you." Answer the burly man.
"Eh? 5 million gold? isn't this a little overkill?"
Sure enough. 1 gold can be said about 10 USD or $10. Thus, 5 million gold is equivalent to $50,000,000 or 50 million USD. If it is made into rupiah? Well, about 500,000,000,000 rupiahs. 500 Billion. Not a small amount.
"In addition, we must eradicate all nobles who still cling to this kingdom. How's development?"
"For that matter, everything went well. Probably 1 or 2 more weeks will be done."
"Good, for other problems.it does not seem so difficult, so it only leaves this gold problem."
"I think asking for donations from all Salvation guild members is not a bad idea."
"I agree with you. But I'll donate most of the money myself."
"Eh, what do you mean Chris?"
That big, burly man is Chris. While the slender man next to him was the vice chairman of the Salvation guild, Neo.
"I'm going to sell some of my property in the real world. At least it'll cover about 70% of the budget we need." Chris answered firmly.
"A-are you crazy Chris?"
"Quiet, that doesn't mean I'm going to sell the whole thing. Now your job is to find the remaining 30% of his needs from all the other guild members. Can I trust you?"
"Well if so. Take it easy, I will definitely finish it!"
"Good!"
And so, the discussion between two Salvation guild leaders who had succeeded in subverting the kingdom of Rena. Armed with hundreds of extremely powerful guild members as well as tens of thousands of soldiers carrying their flags, the battle that had been going on for roughly a month had reached the final round with the victory of the Salvation Guild.
***
Yeah, I'm a little fretful. How not, the goblin army that has now numbered 46 still continues to slaughter the small goblins in this area.
"Maybe I'll call them here and ask them to be on standby? Or how is it? I don't know."
I also asked all the goblins to hide in the forest near this meadow. After that I decided to log out immediately and get ready for bed.
My consciousness returned to the real world. The tightly closed capsule door began to open. I go out and clean up the room. After everything was done, I went to bed.
The next day, my routine went on as usual. I went to DionMart and worked until the afternoon. There was nothing special until that afternoon. Even tomorrow is a new month which means it's my payday. I started thinking about allocating a little money to improve my character in Re:Life, but I rejected the idea because my salary was only 1.4 million rupiah.
"Toh if made into gold can only be 14 gold." That's what I thought as I walked into the house.
Arriving at home, the atmosphere felt quite heavy.
My father, mother and younger sister named Rina were sitting tensely in the living room.
I just came to dare to ask about this situation.
"Um... What's wrong?" I asked softly while putting down my shoes.
My father, who had been silent, began to open his mouth.
"Rina was offered an offer to enter an exclusive class because of her capable ability."
"Well, isn't that a great thing? You should be happier, dong."
Rina was only speechless with a face full of sadness.
I feel like there's something strange behind all this.
"The monthly cost in the exclusive class is 12 million rupiah...." Followed my father with his voice so limp.
'Eh?! Crazy one? Huh huh? A month 12 million?' I thought in my heart
It is true that Rina has been successfully received in the best High School in Yogyakarta, where we live. But that cost sounds too big. After listening to an explanation from Rina, it turns out that the class adopted technology from Re:Life for its education.
Of course it will make a very significant difference. In time, by utilizing the mind acceleration technology from Re:Life, 1 hour can be like 10 hours in a virtual world.
If it is used in the world of education, of course, all students will be very mastering the material taught because the learning time is 10x longer.
"Dad I told you I didn't have to go to that class...."
Lina tried to defuse the situation. But my father was quite stubborn and always wanted to give his best to his son.
"Whatever happens, you have to go to that class, Rina!"
Everyone was silent to the scream. Rina, my mother even my father.
"W-what did you say Erik?" Ask my mom who seems confused.
My father seemed pleased with my words, as if he agreed that giving the best to Rina was the right choice.
"I'll work on it. The class starts on the 20th of next month. There's still 20 days to think about it." Answer me firmly.
I don't want to make my smart sister have a bleak future like me. Therefore, I intend to sacrifice everything for his sake.
