#762 I need to do some work.
Midas is a commercial guild.
As it was made up of players specialized in making money, it was close to the bottom of all guilds in terms of power.
Especially compared to Manmamun, which was a battle-type guild, or the Soulless Guild, which commanded an undead army.
Still, they are part of the World Federation.
In particular, only wealth was at the top of the list even in the past when the 10th guild was intact.
As invested in the World Federation’s plan.
The golden lord did not hesitate to use his enormous wealth for what was necessary.
And, of course, strengthening the guild’s stronghold was included among those ‘needed things’.
As long as the skill is certain, even high-level players living on the other side of the world can be invited to a large sum of money to add their skills to the building.
Thanks to that, Midas was overflowing with all kinds of skills.
『Sculpture of Fatigue Recovery』, 『Echo of Cleverness』, 『Picture of Strengthening Luck』, 『Healing Light』, 『Tree of Life』, etc.
From the sculptures in the lobby to the pictures on the walls, the music from the speakers, the particularly bright lighting, and even the potted plants.
All of that was either an item or a product of skill.
It was to the extent that even ordinary people could exert power comparable to that of most players if they worked at the Midas Headquarters.
And the power of those numerous objects was also applied to security.
A wall that will never be destroyed.
Corridor to keep intruders out.
Barrier to block space.
fighting fountains and more.
The security of the Midas Headquarters, which is covered with enormous objects that can only be called money, is literally impregnable.
Of course, it is the 2nd among the 7 guilds.
It was to the extent that it was difficult for even the most absolute person to evade and infiltrate the security system.
Squeak.
in that sense.
The visitor was truly special.
It was because he was secretly wandering around the Midas Guild covered in objects with countless high-level players.
Guards deployed in each area.
All kinds of expensive items.
Not to mention blocking such visitors, I didn’t even feel their presence.
It was unavoidable.
It was difficult even for a superhuman of the absolute class to detect a visitor who had erased his presence and appearance.
However, visitors were not all leisurely.
with every step you take.
And every time I pass through the area.
The visitor’s movements became slower and more deliberate.
It was because the Midas Guild, which was full of all sorts of strange things, was a tricky place even for uninvited guests.
That’s why the visitors have not taken any hasty action and have devoted themselves to gathering information while figuring out the internal structure.
But the visitor felt it.
that there is no more time.
Although the Seven Dragons’ counterattack was sharp, the Golden Lord was also accelerating the plan.
If the plan goes on track as it is, it will no longer be possible to stop it even if you want to.
I had to use my hand before that.
So, after much thought,
The visitor decided.
* * *
Squeak.
Midas headquarters.
Especially deep.
Among the guild members, there was one uninvited guest who came to a room that only a few could enter.
hiding in the darkness of the night.
Cut off the lock on the door.
entered the room silently.
Without any sign or figure, In-young slowly approached the bed on the other side of the room.
And at the end of staring at the Indian girl lying on the bed.
The moment you raise your hand.
“Go there, sister.”
“…!”
She moved reflexively.
The thing that was lying next to the fox who was doing somersaults with the dagger down.
In other words, they tried to break the smartphone.
Unfortunately, the attempt ended in failure.
The dagger was intercepted by an awkward cowboy who appeared in front of her before she knew it.
Dismissed!
“…!”
As soon as the dagger got stuck, she immediately pulled out another dagger and stopped.
The spark from the tattoo on her abdomen caused excruciating pain and made her unable to fight even if she wanted to.
“I wonder why you’ve been quiet these days… It looks like the sword trained that nobleman’s swordsman pretty hard.”
As if I knew that.
A cowboy giggling.
Billy shrugged and continued.
“Well, that nobleman’s swordsman’s clothes are worth training on purpose.”
Even if you can steal other swords just by looking at them, few sword masters actually do that.
After all, it’s better to hone your own swordsmanship than train someone else’s swordsmanship, which is only half-baked.
from that point of view.
Black Rashid’s sword.
『Shapeless Sword』 was a bit special.
The true value of the swordsman’s sword, which cuts through the world’s presence and form, lies in avoiding the attention of others rather than fighting.
It was for this reason that Limon showed and taught black swords several times at the sword tower in the past.
Even if it was only half, it was possible to hide and run away in any adverse situation if you learned the black sword.
That’s why Limon couldn’t pursue the Sword Masters of the World Federation.
and this moment.
Billy smirked at the sister-in-law, who actively utilized such a black swordsman to infiltrate this place.
“But you are out of luck. If it wasn’t for me, he might have been successful.”
“…”
Maybe because the pain is still there.
Or is it just because Billy is mean?
When the running repair stares at Billy with blatant disgust.
Another voice was heard.
“Even the guild collapsed, and even the remaining sword masters are in this state. Even the Command Lord is in trouble.”
“Well, the sister-in-law is a bit special, but it is true that my lady suffered a lot.”
Billy laughed.
From the beginning, the running repair was a sword master who was as uncooperative with Wanderers as the escaped Sword Master among the resurrected ones.
In addition, it has a unique growth environment that it was raised by a fallen spirit.
It was natural that he was resentful and tried to interfere with the Golden Lord’s plan to use the fallen spirits.
“What are you going to do now?”
“Hmm, let’s come.”
The problem is her treatment.
I don’t know if you are an employer.
What to do with this troublesome piece supported by Wanderer?
Billy scratched his head at the golden lord’s question asking for his opinion as a dispatched worker.
“Honestly, there won’t be a big problem if we leave it as it is. No matter how much you want to interfere, there will be limits to what the sister-in-law can do.”
The power of the spell that sustains that life based on the regrets of life is absolute.
It is impossible to go against it at all, if only to indirectly circumvent the work not ordered.
That’s why the running eagle couldn’t directly hurt the somersault fox.
Even knowing that she was the one who created the virus that infected the fallen spirits and was the one leading this plan.
Rather, the fact that they were able to attempt to destroy even the smartphone was remarkable.
“I guess she’ll want to sabotage us anyway.”
“Do you like it?”
“Right now, the less uncertain variables, the better.”
The Golden Lord said calmly.
In the first place, this plan is a situation where success is guaranteed even if it proceeds as it is.
There was no reason to risk yourself by keeping the running repairman near you, whom Billy had repeatedly warned of what he might do at any moment.
Because I understood his thoughts.
Billy nodded and said.
“Then let’s keep the sister-in-law in confinement until the job is done. There are a lot of empty rooms here anyway.”
“Confinement… wouldn’t it be better to send it back to the Command Lord?”
“Please bear with that. Because of my lady’s personality, if she knew about this, she’d say that she would kill me too.”
After the collapse of the Soulless Guild, Wanderers, who tried to steal Billy and Gandhi, can’t stand still.
please take a look
Put your hands together and look at Billy gently for a while.
The golden lord quietly opened his mouth.
“As long as it doesn’t get in the way of the plan, it’s fine, so do whatever you want.”
“Kya, you have a big heart. I will never forget this favor.”
“You should do some work instead.”
“Eh? Is it work?”
Up until now, people had been told not to do unnecessary things and only had to play, eat, and go sightseeing.
To the puzzled Billy.
The golden lord said calmly.
“Didn’t you tell me? He said he felt a strange presence from the wilderness.”
“Well, that’s it, but… it’s so subtle that I didn’t bother with it on purpose.”
By the time the cavalry runaway happened.
Billy scratched his head, recalling the vague aura he felt on the wilderness side.
Because it was so far away and it appeared and disappeared instantly, it was an energy that even the senses of a sword master could not clearly detect.
“It doesn’t matter. As I said, I don’t like variables.”
“Are you saying that energy will become a variable?”
“Assuming the worst.”
As the world’s foremost investor, he knew all too well that even the most perfect plan could be ruined by a small variable.
Even more so now that we are competing fiercely behind the scenes with the Seven Dragons over the global economy.
I didn’t dare to predict what effect Billy’s feeling would have.
So we need to see what’s going on in the wilderness and deal with it depending on the situation.
Looking at the old man talking coldly.
Cowboy made a mysterious expression.
“Hmm, even if you say so. Wouldn’t it be difficult if I asked you to search the wilderness by yourself?”
The wilderness is never narrow.
The scope alone is as wide as a few tolerable countries put together, and there are dozens of cities and towns alone.
Even a sword master would have taken several months, at worst years, to go through all of them one by one.
However, the Golden Lord did not say this without thinking.
“Relax. There is no need to search the wilderness.”
“What do you mean?”
“It means that no matter how wide the wilderness is, there are only a limited number of places that can produce enough variables to affect my plans.”
“…indeed.”
Billy shook his head.
He is also the United States of America’s Sword Master.
Especially since he was able to read the Golden Lord’s intentions as he was active in the wilderness.
“In short, are you saying that we only need to check the Fairy Kingdom?”
“It’s like that.”
“It’s not as difficult as preventing something strange from entering the fairy kingdom or monitoring the situation…” As if
calculating something.
At the end of thinking while tapping my palm with a knife.
Billy asked casually.
“What if the variable has already been in contact with the fairy kingdom?”
The fairy kingdom is a special place.
everyone in the world knows
Even though many people visit every year.
In fact, only a few people set foot there.
It was unfounded to worry that the owner of the energy he felt had already entered the fairy kingdom and created a variable.
Nevertheless, to Billy who dares to ask what if.
The Golden Lord answered quietly.
“There is no need to worry about that. This time, I will accompany you.”
“Eh? Are you serious?”
“Yes.”
Because even one variable is unacceptable.
As a result of careful examination of various possibilities, the best countermeasures that you have come up with.
He calmly clarified the decisions he made as an investor to make the most appropriate judgment for any variable.
“That way, in case of any eventuality, we will be able to destroy the fairy kingdom before the variable happens.”
