Chapter 290 New Job Appearance
A member of a secret operation jointly conducted by the Cyber Command under the Japan Self-Defense Forces and the Cabinet Investigation Office of the Secret Intelligence Service.
Unlike the past, this secret operation, which began with the purpose of amplifying the antipathy toward Korea, which had become very diluted, and reorganizing the mental armament as a subject of the Empire of Japan, which was Japan’s golden age when it once conquered all of East Asia, continued to grow with Korea as time passed. It was creating a tremendous conflict between the two countries.
-Kill the JoXjing bastards!
-Just like we took Takeshima by force, let’s take the damn city!
– Proud subjects of His Majesty the Emperor! Let’s charge into Josenjing’s continent!
The feelings of resentment poured into Arpendia. And this was not just a mere word, but it was spreading into actual action.
“The day has come to avenge the disgrace of the Veilan incident from before.”
“This time, our guild master has received a huge guild-level quest from the Shouen Empire. Everyone has heard how great this reward is, right? So that absolutely no one is excluded from participating in this cause.”
“For the glory of His Majesty the Emperor!”
“Denno Heika Banzai!”
“Yes viewers. Huge crowds are now moving toward the Korean continental border. I am also following in this hot heat like now. The 214th ranked samurai this time! I have served Kokugen-sama.”
There were some who were really absorbed in far-right ideology and said they would retaliate against Korea, but they were very few.
But other than that, when even the largest guilds in Japan, the popular Arpandia streamers, and top-ranked players in their fingers began to participate, their power began to grow beyond imagination.
“Aono-sama, all guild members have gathered.”
Black Ox, the largest guild in continental Japan.
Unlike other guilds, they are the most elite guild that boasts really strict membership conditions. He boasted of overwhelming power.
“Have all the 10 Heavenly Kings gathered?”
“yes. They are all gathered and waiting for instructions.”
The Kuroshi Guild, where all of the top 10 rankings in the Japanese continent are members.
The reason why he summoned all those who were known to be able to handle 100 normal users by himself was because of the proposal he received from the Shouen Empire and the Ferros Empire, the two best powers that dominate the Japanese continent.
[Our continent intends to completely dominate the newly discovered new continent. To that end, we are currently preparing a combined expeditionary force that combines the elite forces of the two empires.] The
high-ranking nobles of the Shoen Empire came and made a proposal.
It was a quest with the main goal of wanting the Kuroshi Guild to participate in this war.
[I hope adventurers will spearhead this war. His Majesty the Emperor judges that you, who possess the power of immortality, will be able to play a big role in helping our allied forces to conquer new continents.] An adventurer who does not die even after death and resurrects after a certain period of time
.
Similar quests were given to several large guilds in the Japanese continent, based on the judgment that they could play a role beyond simple arrow shafts, and as a result, dozens of large guilds, including Kuroshi, participated in one unprecedented level. A great power was formed.
And…
Aono, the master of the Kuroshi Guild, who commands all the adventurers.
A unique title shone above his head, who had been bestowed with the title of nobility and the mighty authority to lead these adventurers directly from the Shoen Empire and the Faros Empire, revealing his presence.
[Continent Conquest Allied 3rd Army Commander-in-Chief Aono]
Aono has obtained command and management rights for all adventurers and guilds participating in this conquest. The order given to him was to occupy the Gael Federation located at the beginning of the Korean continent in the shortest time.
[At the border of the Shoen Empire, there is a country called the Gael Federation, a country of uncivilized people who don’t even have a king. It will take some time before our allied forces are firmly established, but from what we have learned, we have judged that you will be able to take over with your own strength. I hope for a good result.]
Is it because the armies of the Shouen Empire and the Ferros Empire are not fully organized, or is it because they want to know the strength of the adventurers? Although he was not sure why, Aono confirmed the quest assigned to him and gathered all the users to the Gael Federation’s nearby border area.
[The Vanguard of the Quest Battlefield]
The allied forces of the Shouen Empire and the Peros Empire decided to conquer the unknown new continent, dreaming of unifying the continent. Capture Gael Federation’s border cities before their main force arrives at the border area, and confidently reveal and prove the adventurers’ hidden potential.
-Success condition: Capture 40% of the cities belonging to the Gael Federation. (0/40%)
– Remaining time: 6 days 12 hours 19 minutes 02 seconds
Base capture quest where you have to capture 40% of Gael Federation’s cities within the given time.
Since they had already experienced what a siege was like while running a guild, Aono and other adventurers were fully prepared.
“Are all the wizards ready?”
“yes! Everything is ready.”
A wizard unit called the flower of the battlefield.
Among the vast user alliance, easily surpassing hundreds of thousands, the number of magicians was already close to tens of thousands, so the crude walls of the Gael Federation made of rocks seemed infinitely vulnerable to withstand the magic that they cast all at once.
“Which warrior classes will charge right after the wall is broken?”
“I have confirmed that you are all ready!”
Under the command of the Kuroshi Guild, a united force of adventurers completely reorganized according to the given purpose, regardless of which guild member belonged to it. Third Commander Aono, who was in charge of them, opened his mouth as he looked at the hundreds of thousands of adventurers lined up in front of him.
“Our proud users of the continent of Japan.”
He said with a solemn face, as if he had become a commander giving a final instruction to soldiers going to war.
“Everyone has different reasons for being here. There are people who are not shouting the glory and revenge of the Japanese Empire, or people who are aiming for huge rewards through quests, but if not that, there are people who just gathered to attract people’s attention and popularity through broadcasting, or just for curiosity and fun.”
Whatever it is, it’s just an incident that happens in the game.
Most of the people who participated for interests such as fun and profit rather than because of an ideology or a sense of mission that really risked the fate of the country.
However, even to them, Aono did his best to explain the purpose of this war and continue his speech to inspire passion in the people.
“I don’t care what the reason was. However, beyond personal gain and profit, this war we are starting this time will overturn this world, and we will be the protagonists of the newly opened world, and in the future, all users around the world will not dare to look into the eyes of Japanese users! We are the undisputed strongest players in this virtual reality!”
“Waaaaaa!”
“Blood revenge on the savage bastards!”
“Long live the Emperor! hurray! Long live!”
Cheers erupted at his words. Aono pointed to the fortress of the Gael Federation in the distance and shouted with all his might.
“All attack begins! Let’s eat all of that goddamn continent!”

Arcadia Japan Branch.
Something strange was going on inside the company, which was responsible for the overall management and operation of everything that happened in the Japanese continent.
“I… Chief.”
Sasaki works as an assistant manager at the Japan branch of Arcadia Co., Ltd.
He asked in a cautious voice from the situation room to his gunner and superior, Chief Akita.
“Is this… can it really be like this?”
An unprecedented situation taking place in the Japanese continent.
The Shoen Empire and the Faros Empire divided the entire continent.
I was watching in real time the entire series of processes in which these two giant empires joined forces to conquer the Korean continent, and the gathering of hundreds of thousands of adventurers in the process. However, unlike this unprecedented situation, the staff looking at all of this were so free and relaxed.
“What do you know about me? It’s a special order given by the head of the branch directly, so don’t make any response or report about this situation. Didn’t you hear that he said that he would take stern action if he mentions related matters to other branch offices?”
Branch manager Kazuki warned never to leak the situation on the Japanese continent to the outside world. In response to his special order not to provide information to other branches, including the Korean branch, which had become a direct target, the employees of the Arcadia Japan branch had to sit still without doing anything even in a hideous atmosphere that seemed like something would explode at any moment.
“But… if the real Korean continent suffers a large-scale invasion, won’t we be held accountable?”
Strange movements that were openly detected for almost two months, unless it was an unexpected situation. Even though he knew about these things, Sasaki was constantly agitated by the anxiety that he would become a big problem if he stayed on the sidelines, but his boss, Section Manager Akita, didn’t seem to worry too much.
“Probably not. Don’t you know our company motto? Infinite freedom and infinite possibilities.”
President Lee Mi-yeon, who has been consistently teasing the Japanese branch with endless tolerance and immunity for the situation in the game that changes according to the results created by users. That’s why Manager Akita was sure that there would be no official issue about this incident.
“When the pirates occupied the Shouen Empire, let alone when a large city was reduced to ashes overnight because of a dragon that suddenly appeared, they didn’t take any action. Perhaps the victimized Korean branch may have internal dissatisfaction, but we cannot officially hold our Japanese branch accountable.”
The Japanese branch, which had already been forced to suffer too much damage the other day.
That’s why Manager Akita secretly enjoyed the situation taking place in the game and sipped his coffee.
“But…”
Still, with a worried face, Sasaki was looking at the huge monitor that was relaying the Japanese players advancing in the game.
Akita looked at him and narrowed his eyes.
“what? Why are you making that fucking face? Are you sure there will be no problem?”
Akita asks in a rather sharp voice if he doesn’t like a subordinate who doesn’t let go of his expression even after hearing his words. However, at his question, Sasaki shook his head as if that wasn’t the case.
“yes….? No, I’m not particularly worried about that… Why… I’m strangely anxious.”
Sasaki’s uneasiness seems to overlap with the appearance of Chief Akita, who had previously boasted that Poseia would never be captured. That time when I was looking at the users in the monitor with such a curious look. Suddenly, a huge roar hit the control room.
[Quaang.]
“What is it?”
Suddenly, a sharp, huge roar pierced through the speakers.
Startled by the sound that sounded like a bomb exploded, the employees showed different reactions and turned their heads to look at the monitor.
A massive explosion involving at least dozens of people.
However, as if the explosion was just beginning, one after another, it began to burst out among the army of Japanese users without a break.
[Quaang Kwaang Kwaang Kwaang Kwaang…..]
“What the hell is this…!”
“what! That! How are things going…?”
A huge explosion like you’ve never seen before.
As he watched in real time the users who were falling like fallen leaves from an unknown attack, Akita opened his mouth like a man in a frenzy.
rumble.
It was an ugly scene where the coffee he couldn’t swallow dripped from his mouth and soaked his pants.
However, Akita was unaware of that fact and just stared blankly at the image of a user appearing on the screen.
[Tatatang. Tatatatatang.]
Arcadia, the worldview of medieval fantasy.
Among them, a person holding a gun in both hands, as seen only in modern times, and carrying out a massacre among Japanese users.
A new weapon item, Mana Cannon, created by magical engineers of the Cannonphilia school.
An exhilarating combat class that handles it freely and annihilates the enemy in front of it with overwhelming firepower.
It was the moment when a new job, the Canon Shooter, appeared splendidly.
