The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 196 - The Bird News
...Farna Kingdom...
...City Forgia...
...Royal Palace...
‘Tap! Taps! Tap!’
A Woman with long, straight gray hair was walking towards the throne room. With his red eyes burning, he forced his way into the throne room.
“Wait! You can't..”.
‘Bruk!’
“What's...”.
‘Braaak!’
All the guards who blocked him he kicked him into the wall. Everything was immediately unconscious. Even so, the woman only used a small part of her strength.
After being right in front of the throne room door….
‘Kreeek!’
He immediately opened the door and shouted.
“Message to King Arlond! Your kingdom may soon be in danger!”
Arlond and all the ministers who were meeting in this room were immediately shocked not to play.
“What did you say?!”
The woman walked over to Arlond at her leisure. He then explained the meaning of his words in detail.
...***...
...The Alpa Mountains...
...The Northeast Side...
The border between the Farna Kingdom Region and the Celestine Holy Kingdom Region
“I hate you.” Said a woman with silver hair and golden eyes, Cathy.
“Why do you blame me? Hasn't it been almost a week since that incident? Besides, you asked me to raise the temperature of that fire!” Lucien replied in an annoyed tone.
“Because of your fault, I can't taste the Harpy Empress meat that has that legendary level! From the name alone I am very confident that it will feel so amazing!” Reply Cathy with saliva that seems to flow profusely. So are her tears.
Hearing this stupid conversation for a week drove me crazy.
“Can you shut up? I've built a Dungeon on top of that Alpa Mountains. I have even asked Oliver to develop that Dungeon. Moreover, Elin and I have summoned thousands of Harpies to hunt down Harpies there every day. You'll get a supply of Harpy meat..”.
“I want the Harpy Empress meat.
‘Duaaarrr!!! Byeaharrrr!! Duaarr!’
Over 60 magic bullets shot out and struck Cathy's body mercilessly. Cathy was thrown far north. Of course, I used it myself.
“Eric! What are you doing! That Cathy is a very valuable asset to Origin!” Shouted Elin in panic.
“What do I do? Of course get rid of people who only think about food for 24 hours a day! After all, an attack like that alone wouldn't kill him!” Reply annoyed.
“Gaes! Thankfully I recorded it! Can you guys see that?! Eric had just used high-level magic [Magic Barrage] even without casting spells or seeing his target! It is so easy…. Kugh!!!”
That lightning-fast kick sent Nico back to the top of the mountain. Of course, Elin did it.
“Didn't I tell you Nico was an important person for Origin? Why are you doing it?” I'm upset.
“I just got rid of the Man whose job speaks to himself every day! He even addressed a small, completely useless matter! Besides, a kick won't kill him! Although dead, he can also Log In back tomorrow!” Reply Elin was upset.
At that moment….
[You've heard a melodious song!]
[Your entire status has increased by 2% for 2 minutes!]
Rianne sang a children's song filled with happy tones.

...Farna Kingdom...
...City Forgia...
...Royal Palace...
“You-you're sure about that?!” Asked Arlond while putting on a face filled with fear.
“Hmm…. So anyway…. No solid evidence, huh?” Reply Arlond while propping up his chin.
“This is just a warning considering you are Mr. Eric's closest and strongest ally. Regarding your actions, I fully leave it to you. But one suggestion I, there is no harm in forming a strong army.”
Immediately after saying that, the female vampire who did not even introduce her name immediately stepped out of this throne room.
Without having to wait for long, Arlond immediately understood it.
“6 heroes won't be enough. Defense Minister! How many troops are we?!” Shouted Arlond as he turned his body and looked towards the gathering of people.
“Currently only about 60,000 soldiers, Your Majesty. Most have not even completed advanced training.” Reply to the Minister of Defense.
“Bad…. Really bad. Given the person named Alice who was able to use that teleportation magic, even the 10,000 troops that were under his control could already overthrow the current Farna Kingdom.
Hire milita soon! Open massive registration for soldiers! Provide high salary guarantees and pension guarantees even if you die in the war! Whatever happens, we should have 300,000 warriors who can swing a sword and lift the rest within this 1 month!” Shouted Arlond loudly.
Hearing that unreasonable order, the entire Minister immediately stood up from his seat and shouted the same thing.
“Your Majesty! But it will cost the entire budget this year!”
One of the ministers then continued his words.
“Even we are still experiencing huge losses thanks to the development of the agricultural sector! If you still have to spend money to recruit and pay more than 240,000 people…. We can spend over tens of millions of gold coins immediately!”
“Farming Minister is right! In fact, the money would only be lost because the recruited soldiers were new and weak! Even though the battle is really happening, then they will die in vain and we will have to bear the burden of paying those who are already dead with high pay!” The Minister of Defense.
“That's all right! How will His Majesty handle this financial crisis?!”
A commotion also occurs.
Hearing that, of course Arlond understood everything. After all, Arlond was a scholar in the field of History in the real world. Such a simple calculation was just a child's toy to him.
Therefore, He kept silent and thought about all this very carefully.
One minute….
Five minutes….
Until finally after ten more minutes of thinking….
“I'll go first for a while. Before that, immediately prepare the recruitment of soldiers. Take it easy, I will bear the entire cost if my plan fails.” Said Arlond as he immediately sat on his throne.
Soon after, he opened his menu window and pressed the [Log Out] button.
‘Eric…. I'm sorry if I keep bothering you but…. I have to talk about this with you.’ Arlond said in his heart.

...Kulon Progo's...
...Eric's Residence...
...Night Days...
In a room that is quite dark, a VR capsule appears that emits a fairly beautiful light with its unique groove. Both capsules were open simultaneously.
From behind the capsule….
“Hah…. Playing games instead of relieving stress is getting more stressful. No. gabe. It's not stress anymore…. But I've really gone crazy!” My shout was full of annoyance as it immediately jumped out from inside the capsule.
“Hahaha! Seeing your behavior made me unable to hold back my laughter, Erik!” Said Elin while laughing out loud.
“Hah…. It's up to you. I want to sleep.” I said as I immediately laid my body on that very soft mattress.
‘Bruuk!’
“What are you doing, Elin? Still less satisfied mocking me?” Just pissed.
“Why do you think of myself as my best friend? Anyway, am I not your wife?” Elin asked while giving a very sweet smile.
“Damn…. I don't know why I always lose with that smile.” Reply with a smile.
“Of course. Isn't that why you married me? Now, enough of the bullshit. What should I do to restore my husband's joy?” Said Elin while tightly hugging my body.
“Are you sure of what you said?” I asked back with a thin smile and then pinched his nose.
“Of course. I'll serve you tonight.”
Elin immediately tightened her embrace. While me? I can only enjoy the comfort of this atmosphere.
We both kissed and enjoyed this cold night.
Without realizing….
From that moment my phone kept vibrating because it received a call from Arlond.
