I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game Chapter 103

◈ 103. [Side Story] Recapture operation (1)

Five days later.

Alchemist’s workshop.

clap.

Charrrrrr.

Chunk.

The prosthetic hand in God Hand’s hand worked with a smooth sound.

It felt like a slightly elaborated gauntlet, but it moved like a real hand thanks to God Hand’s metal magician ability.

We admired the prosthetic hand making a rock-paper-scissors shape while making a clicking sound.

“Oh oh… .”

“amazing.”

“It’s completely plausible, isn’t it? It looks like a real hand.”

Chak-!

God Hand stopped the spinning hand and smiled faintly.

“Good. It is much lighter and more comfortable to use than the prosthetic arm I used before.”

“of course. It’s the most expensive one among the magic metals that can be made in this workshop.”

Lily, who said she made a prosthetic arm with God Hand, shrugged.

“It is light but strong and has a quick response to magic power. It will be easier to control with less horsepower and less concentration.”

“Thank you very much, Lily.”

God Hand put the prosthetic arm into his bosom in a motion similar to that of a real hand, and took out his wallet.

“The price of a prosthetic arm… .”

“Leave it. It’s the price of a life.”

Lily, who spoke coolly, frowned as God Hand stared at him.

“Then can I get paid for it? I feel ashamed that I still owe it.”

“But Lily… … .”

“Ah but what a but! Pick it up and get out quickly! I’m busy with a lot of things that Her Highness ordered, but I spent several days making them.”

Lily, who acted in a fit of rage, dragged her wheelchair into the workshop.

‘That’s so cute… … .’

I looked at the two and thought, God Hand with a bitter smile approached me.

When I pulled down my sleeves and put on my gloves, my arms looked really good.

“Your body has recovered and there is no problem returning, Your Highness.”

“Good.”

Even so, he lost the elbow below. I want to give you a little more rest.

Even if it’s a harsh schedule, it can’t be helped. You have to move as quickly as possible.

“Summon all the shadow troops to the manor house by 9pm. going out tonight It will be a late-night operation, so let the troops sleep in advance during the day.”

“I take orders.”

God Hand lowered his head, glanced at the alchemist’s workshop one more time, then turned to the temple.

I entered the workshop. I saw Lily standing in a daze in front of the artifact being repaired.

“Lily.”

“Ah yes! majesty. What are you doing? This artifact, which was ordered to be repaired this time, will be finalized by tonight-”

“For this operation, you… .”

“Hey!”

“… I won’t take you, so don’t worry.”

Even just talking about it scares me. Before the last defensive battle, they said that they would stand on the frontline every day, but they were all bluffs.

“In the future, as long as there are no special circumstances, you will not have to go to the front lines. Instead, this friend joined the main party.”

I gestured toward Junior, who was standing behind me.

Junior and Lily had said hello a few days in advance.

From now on, whenever I select a new wizard, I will ask Lily, who is the senior magician, to greet me first.

“Miss Juju… .”

Lily held Junior’s hand tightly and talked softly.

“If Your Highness abuses it, come and talk to me. We will protest together. We must get along well with our mages. Right?”

“Fuhu, I will. We are proud of each other.”

He’s ready to form a magician’s union. play well with you guys

“Then don’t come again next time. Well done repairing the artifact.”

“Your Highness. Please leave it to me. and… .”

After hesitating for a moment, Lily nodded with a determined face.

“Call me on the front line whenever you need it. I am determined.”

“… .”

As I left the workshop, I thought to myself.

‘Be prepared when necessary… … .’

Three weeks later, the clan army invades.

I want to entrust Lily with the management of the field artifacts, but when the time comes, I will have to fight monsters again.

‘Your retirement is far away, Lily.’

One day, when Lily will only be engaged in office work.

That will be when the front here stabilizes. I sincerely wished that day would come as soon as possible.

“let’s go.”

I nodded towards Lucas and Junior, who were following me.

“I have to prepare to go out.”

All the other party members also put down the summons to the mansion.

at las… The time has come for the operation to recapture the base camp.

***

And when you arrive at the mansion.

“huh?”

An unexpected person was standing at the entrance of the mansion.

I bewilderedly called out his name.

“Jupiter?”

“… .”

Jupiter was leaning against the pillar at the entrance of the mansion with a pale complexion wearing an old imperial army coat over the temple hospital gown.

“You’re still not feeling well. I need to rest more. What are you doing here?”

“majesty.”

Jupiter glanced at Junior behind me and lowered his voice to me.

“I heard you are going out today.”

“It is.”

“Take me with you.”

“what?”

“Aren’t they the ones who made me like this? Give me a chance to avenge myself.”

Jupiter’s hand squeezed my collar. Jupiter, who was close to me, whispered.

“Junior.”

“?”

“My granddaughter… Do not take them.”

Jupiter’s voice was a desperate tone he had never heard before.

“You shouldn’t let that child go through war.”

I was surprised and looked at Jupiter like that. Jupiter exclaimed earnestly.

“Please, Your Highness… !”

Jupiter begged.

It was then.

“I can’t even stand up properly, so even my grandmother is really upset.”

Junior approached and gently removed Jupiter from me.

“You say you’re going on a dungeon exploration with that body.”

“Junior… !”

Jupiter clung to his own granddaughter.

“Please, it is not too late. let’s stop now huh?”

“What do you mean?”

“To plunge into the mire of this war.”

A bright light shone in Jupiter’s one eye.

“Didn’t I try so hard to stop you guys from coming in here? You know that.”

“… .”

Junior let out a small sigh.

“Then Grandma is now so sick. don’t worry too much I will take over Grandma’s work now.”

“no!”

Jupiter shook his head vigorously.

“It can’t be. It can’t be. I… It means that there is no reason to persevere even though you have lived a messy life until today.”

Junior gently wrapped his arms around Jupiter’s shoulders.

“grandma. I already signed a mercenary contract with Your Highness. Today is the operation day.”

“… !”

“What if grandma is messing around like this here? Your Highness is in trouble, and I’m embarrassed too. Shall we go to the temple today and rest and talk later?”

Jupiter, grinning at this, turned his head and looked at me.

“majesty.”

“hmm?”

“If I am fine and stronger than my granddaughter. Can you just take me to the dungeon?”

I narrowed my brows.

“What do you mean, Jupiter?”

“Dalian… … request.”

“ok?”

What is this?

“So uh… with Junior? you?”

“That’s right.”

Jupiter was asking me to fight his granddaughter.

“If I am stronger, there is no need to take my granddaughter to a dungeon or a battlefield. Isn’t it?”

“What… that is… .”

“Mercenaries are only skills! It’s a floor where only skills are the best.”

Jupiter glared fiercely at his granddaughter.

“If you’re weaker than me, you don’t even need to get a green salary here.”

“… .”

Junior sighed again.

“Do I have to do this, Grandma?”

“OK. I have to. I can’t leave like this.”

“Well, I’ll deal with you.”

Junior smiled thinly and took out a smoking pipe.

“Isn’t it time to finally show off the skills I learned over Grandma’s shoulder?”

A sly smile formed on Jupiter’s lips.

“Don’t mess around, granddaughter. Because your talent is exceptional… … Can I compare it to the jjambab I’ve eaten all my life?”

Kurrureung Kurrureung… .

Thunder began to be heard in the sky.

“Your Highness, go this way for now.”

Lucas hastily grabbed me and forced me to step back.

No, rather than avoiding it for a while, shouldn’t we dry this?

However, the confrontation took place in an instant before it was stopped.

“Huh-!”

Lightning flashed from Jupiter’s one eye.

At the same time, thunderbolts emanated from Jupiter’s outstretched fingertips, and at the same time.

“You are very old, my grandmother.”

I heard Junior’s murmur.

Flash-!

A huge bolt of lightning fell from the sky to the ground following the movement of the pipe that Junior had casually made.

The thunderbolt that fell from the sky swallowed the thunderbolt from Jupiter’s hand at once and hit the ground as it was, burning the entire area black.

Quagmire!

“My garden!”

Looking at the stone wall and the garden lawn being destroyed by lightning, I jumped without realizing it.

These wizard guys! Cram play somewhere else!

“big… black!”

Jupiter groaned and sat down in his seat. Nosebleeds flowed from the old blitzkrieg’s nose.

There will be a win.

“Junior… .”

Jupiter muttered in a bloody voice as he knelt down.

“With this… Can’t you?”

“… .”

“To get revenge on me… Can’t we finish it?”

Junior, who was silent, answered coldly.

“It can’t be, Grandma.”

“… .”

“Go back to the temple and rest. I’ll be back soon.”

Junior first fluttered the hem of his robe and entered the mansion.

I couldn’t get involved in the quarrel between my grandmother and granddaughter, and I hurriedly ran to Jupiter’s side, watching from afar.

“Are you okay, Jupiter?”

“majesty.”

Jupiter staggered, but he managed to get himself back up again.

The old wizard’s shoulders trembled like an aspen tree, but he refused my help and stood alone.

“My granddaughter… i look forward to.”

“… .”

“I have talent, but I am still a child with little experience. Please don’t make me do too many things.”

Then he staggered out of the garden, and out of the mansion, he began to head toward town.

“Jupiter… .”

Even though she was not in good shape, she was trying to stop her granddaughter from going to school by pushing herself this far.

what happened between the two of them?

I didn’t know, and I couldn’t afford to listen now. The outing must proceed as scheduled.

After looking at Jupiter’s back, I entered the mansion.

All the party members under his command had already been summoned to the reception room of the mansion.
