Chapter 128

Chapter 128

An order must be established. (Isabelle)

Isabelle said with determined eyes scanning the audience. The resolute will shining in her eyes was as bright as the morning star. It was the persuasion of a warriors bloodline.

Shall we decide by strength? (Elpheira)

Elpheira, daughter of a great sorcerer with a legend of destroying three fortresses in just half a day, stood up, her eyes emitting purple magic sparks.

Strength! How about arm wrestling then? (Ecdysis)

Resembling Einar who piled mountains with corpses and dyed the seas with blood, Ecdysis raised her hand swiftly. The slender white fingers holding the iron rod snapped with a crack.

Stop the nonsense and lets roll the dice. Ill throw the last one. (Lucia)

While the disciple of the vampire queen, who killed Elder vampire with mere sleight of hand and claimed the throne in the back alleys of Frechenkaya, chuckled in response

No, I really want to go home now. Doesnt this seem odd to you guys? The situation right now. Am I the only one who thinks its strange? (Oscar)

Whats odd? (Isabelle)

From a logical standpoint, if multiple individuals share an interest in the same person, its unlikely they would be gathered here having this conversation, correct? (Oscar)

Oscar, who inadvertently became responsible for the hero partys common sense, sighed deeply.

I really dont know why Im fitting in here. Honestly. It would have been more constructive to hang out with my knight school friends (mostly girls) at this hour, or rather, to swing the sword once more. (Oscar)

Thats only logical in normal situations.

In emergencies, extraordinary measures are necessary.

We dont even have hope in Uncles character right now.

Isabelle scanned the audience. A deep sense of defeat loomed over the hero party like a dark cloud. They couldnt just leave it like this.

They had to admit it. These guys were almost all competitors. Somehow, they had become cunning predators, sneaking in to target Ivan.

But competition, at least, had to start from the starting line to have any meaning, didnt it?

At least we have to hold hands until we reach a level of possibility.

This was the only solution the hero party shared.

Even if theres room for concubinage!

At least, whether its a concubine or a main wife, they should be able to drag them to the wedding venue first for it to have meaning!

Still, the main wife should be an elf, right?

Even in pre-modern fantasy worlds, concubinage wasnt something openly discussed. It was more like some high noble families sneaking in another concubine, being cautious, and then getting slapped by their main wife.

Marriage among high noble families naturally meant the union of nobles. In this era, noble marriages were often more equal than in the 21st century. The moment a concubine was introduced, one had to endure the cooling of the relationship with the main family.

Therefore, in the public eye, it was bizarre for several women to court one man simultaneously. Most often, it was met with condemnation.

However, even the capitalist hegemon, the United States, had no qualms about forming an alliance with the communist Soviet Union to defeat the demon (Facist).

Sometimes, for the sake of justice and macroscopic strategic goals, May-December romances become a rational choice. The Kettleshire hunters even adopted the 3-to-1 asymmetrical tactics as their standard manual.

According to the Lancaster law, a sufficient number overwhelms qualitative superiority.

Its not the time for us to fight amongst ourselves.

Lets admit it, kids. Ill go first.

Honestly, if we prioritize, I think I should go first. I heard humans have difficulty counting on the scale of years, but lets decide this for sure.

After intense arguments between Elpheira (encounter 12 years ago) and Ecdysis (encounter 8 years ago), the warrior (6 months after the first encounter) decided to resolve the partys turmoil with external advice.

Here we go. (Eugene)

Eugene, the strategist who was dragged into the plan, sighed softly. Was this how Paris felt when he had to choose Who is Miss Universe Greece? in front of three goddesses?

At least the three goddesses brought gifts and made preemptive offers to choose, but the warrior party, unlike fate, didnt compromise.

Drovian, Kalion, Tylesse, and Krasilov, in that order.

Yeah!

Fortunately, there were no music students present, so they could quickly move on to the next topic.

Lets leave it to Elpheira. She said she went boating on the lake, right? How far did we check? (Oswald)

Kalion just finished, and Tylesse just started. But do we really need to take this so seriously? Theres no way theres a real demon spy. (Yuri)

If we do it carelessly and get caught by big brother later, the relationship could become hostile, couldnt it? (Eugene)

Oh.

Not wanting to die within 3 seconds, Yuri and Oswald silently acquiesced and left for the next students.

Aah?! Who are you people! Let go of me!!

Shh, Mr. Patrick. From now on, youll be friends with this man from your hometown.

Who is he! Let me go! You dont know who I am!

Shh, quiet down. Focus on this coin.

The kidnapped student nodded tearfully.

Now, whats the name of that man?

My friend Yevgeny a childhood friend who liked me since we were young its a mutual same-sex marriage in the country

Why do you keep making up such settings? (Yuri)

Its more fun that way. (Oswald)

Oswald, who had already become more than half an elf, chuckled as he shook the thread with the coin.

*

Peaceful times followed. The hero party went on daily dates, and in the meantime, they got close with the students attending Ivans classes.

At the point when two weeks had passed.

Eugene, who was investigating the 13th student who had come aboard the ship, paused, raised his gaze, and looked into the void. As the intimacy increased, the status window began to glow green.

[Quest Added!]

[??? Grade Quest Shadow looming over Tylesse.]

[You have detected a conspiracy circulating among the Tylesse nobility. The seeds of a long-standing feud, dating back from the Eastern Front, are now beginning to ignite.]

[Objective: Prevent the civil war among the 3 Marquises of Tylesse.]

[Optional Objective: Ensure the survival of Jill Ber de Etacrique.]

[Optional Objective: Encounter Maximilian de Eutualle.]

[Additional Objective: Maintain the total number of destroyed territories to 15 or less.]

[Additional Objective: Survival of the Tylesse royal family.]

[Reward: Extension of the United Kingdoms existence by 10 years.]

Wow Damn.

Eugene chewed his lips and fell into silence.

A demons spy? Its not even funny, but well, lets assume its possible.

But what? The existence of the United Kingdom? Jill Ber and Maximilian are, well, members of the hero party, arent they?

A ??? Grade Quest? Isnt this difficulty rating similar to the quest to kill your brother?

I dont think this is a problem we can solve among ourselves.

Is it really serious?

More than I thought. Call big brother. This isnt the time to be dating and having fun.

Eugene sighed, clutching his forehead.

It started with such a light heart, why does everything have to get so complicated again? He wondered.
