The Labyrinth Kingdom
Chapters 21. The Recruitment Plan
Aaron is standing in the [Throne room], he plans to give the knight a name.
“Knight of Judgement Who Reigned the Hellhounds, from now on your name is Dustin. When you serve us, it will be your name. ”
"thank you for the name you gave me, if you may know what my name means?"
"that name means brave knight, it's also the name of the brave magic knight who fought to the point of final blood to protect my father ”
"I understand.so from now on, I will introduce myself as Dustin. I promise to fight to the death for my master ”
"I was expecting it"
"Hhhh!"
Aaron looked down on Dustin his subordinate who was bowing coldly.
Aaron thought.
His loyalty was abnormal, Of course [Evil Charisma], [Dark Noble] and [Wicked Soul] were skills that would give a great boost to successfully negotiate with monsters or creatures that were considered evil.
But, it would be strange if the contracted creature had absolute loyalty, even to the point of willing to sacrifice his own life.
Is Dustin a special case, or is he planning something inside his head.
'Ma'am, that doesn't matter. If he really betrayed me, I just need to kill him and if he's loyal, I'll give him a gift'
It was as simple as the concept of loyalty that was in his head, after which he gave orders to Dustin.
“Dustin, you will go to the goblin village around this place, talk to them so they want to move to this labyrinth. But, don't use too much power. Tell them about the advantages of staying in the maze.If they decide to join us, I will protect their clan. ”
"What should I do if they attack?"
“Umu, there is also such a possibility. When you are attacked, I allow you to retaliate against the attack. But, if possible, don't kill them. ”
"Yes sir"
"Another thing, if you see the expedition from Bacau, kill some of their members. According to Conley's story, their number seems to be several dozen people. ”
"Allah . ”
“Don't use [Hellhounds Creation] to make them your subordinates as much as possible. But, if you really want it, I'll allow you to use it. ”
"I understand everything"
"then go"
Seeing the knight who left leaving the [Throne room], his gaze was shifted to someone else who was kneeling at that place.
The goblin leader Raluk, the female warrior Bodil, as well as the ranger Amara who chose to live together with Priest Conley.
There are 4 people in total.
[Thore room] that was able to hold 100 at once seemed empty at this moment.
As they were engulfed by the intimidating aura that Aaron released from the king's throne, everyone who was in that place could only remain silent.
"Related"
Hearing Aaron's voice calling out to him, the goblin leader replied while trembling.
"How many Goblins can be gathered from around this area?"
“Yes, it depends on how the Knight persuades them..., maybe a few hundred .... , it might be able to collect up to about 500 Goblins.
“ 500, less than I thought..it may also be related to food problems . If they starve to death, we can do nothing. We need to increase their numbers as much as possible, besides that we also need to teach children who will be born soon. I wonder if they will remain useless even after being trained? ”
Turning his gaze away from Raluk who continued to lower his head deeper, he looked to the side of the Human.
“That's the same for you, Conley. Since I thought you would be useful, that's why I kept you alive unlike Tieres. Don't betray my hope, if you do, you and the woman who loves you will become food for the Goblins. ”
"Y, yes, I understand . ”
"siron sir, is that going to be okay?"
"Hmm?"
Raluk warned while lowering his head.
“Depending on the attitude of the other goblin chieftains, there might be a tribe attacking this Labyrinth. ”
“you need not worry, At that time, I will deal with them. Is there a problem?"
"Of course not!"
When he finished listening to Raluk, Aaron looked at his subordinates coldly and said.
"Because you previously discussed the shortage of food supplies, I will think about the solution. Later, when I can get food, I will call you again. You are free to do whatever you want until then. ”
When Aaron waved his hand as an order to disperse, everyone who was still inside the [Throne room] left the room in a hurry.
Seeing that everyone had left, Aaron recited a magic spell
“...... . translocate, communication crystal. ”
When the spell was finished reciting, a pebble-sized crystal appeared in Aaron's hand.
"Toa', can you hear me?"
"This is Prince Aaron's voice. Yes, I can hear you clearly! ”
{ket: Toa' or ( ⁇ \=to ⁇ \=a) here is a designation for older people like grandma or grandpa, okay.}.
The crystal light flickered, at the same time an aged voice sounded.
"It's been a long time since I last called you. ”
“From the looks of it, it looks like you successfully created the Underground Kingdom ”
“Yes, it works well. ”
“KUKUKUKU, Amazing, that's amazing! as expected of the royal lineage of the Magic Kingdom Family. It took me hundreds of years to reach your current position, but for the two of you it only took 5 years. You guys grew up so fast, if I remember before you didn't even…. ”
"toa' "
