The Labyrinth Kingdom
Chapters 22. Insect Squad
He cut off the talk of the old man who began to reminisce about the past, If left unchecked the story will be very long.
"Oh, sorry, what can I do for you?"
“Ah, I want to ask you something. ”
"What's that?"
"I want food . ”
"food?. Hoo, how much do you want?"
After thinking for a while Aaron said.
“For now, I want an amount that can support 1000 humans for 1 month. ”
"YES, is this a joke?"
“I don't like to make jokes. ”
"Prince, why do you need him this time? We can discuss it after you've finished building the Labyrinth. Back then you could recruit troops to secure food reserves and gradually expand your strength. ”
“the current situation is not very favorable, I have to strengthen the labyrinth as quickly as possible and recruit more guard troops, that's why I need a lot of food. ”
“Haa.., I will not ask what is going on. But I can't give you that much. If it's about 100 people I might be able to manage it, but when it reaches 1000 people …. ”
While listening to the old man's words, Aaron forgot to mention something and added.
" toa' ... , you are the Master of Magic . If it is impossible for you to do it yourself, then you definitely have an idea that can solve this problem. If they need money, they just need to say how much they need. ”
"Hm... Okay, I understand. Yare yare, I still can't seem to live quietly. ”
"Sorry about that toa'. ”
“ No problem, no problem, I understand, you really look like your father and grandfather. When they interacted with goblins back then while trading acorns with them, your father still ignored the condemnation from neighboring countries many times… . ”
"toa' "
Alrac interrupted the words of his teacher again who seemed to be complaining for good, and said.
"At that time for those who oppose the kingdom, it will be punished no matter if they are Humans or Goblins.
And for those who wish to follow the kingdom wholeheartedly will be given a reward that suits their performance. That's why I wanted to use that old way to form my army. ”
“ Haa, now I can guess what you want to do . ”
"Under my reign, I will surely succeed the plans of grandfathers and fathers who wish to unite all races under one power. ”
“Alright, I understand. I'll send a traveling merchant now. However, some funds are required. ”
"I'll send it right away. ”
"Thank you very much . One more thing prince, I'll give you one piece of advice. ”
"What's that?"
“Goblin are small creatures, but when their numbers grow too much, they will start doing stupid things. You cannot show the slightest gap.
when they are many, you must find the right reason to kill them. It is also done by your grandfather and father before”
“...... I'll remember it”
With that last word, the white crystal turned gray and disappeared.
“..... translocate, Transmission Material”
Aaron imagines the treasure in the treasure storage room and transfers it to his teacher's house.
Since the funds were needed to obtain food as quickly as possible, he sent it using magic.
Since the treasures were part of the labyrinth, if taken out, naturally, Aaron and Alice would receive damage. But it's not a serious injury. The pain is like when you accidentally slice your finger while cooking.
There was no feeling of grieving when they became soul-eating monsters.
Because their hearts were dead from the beginning.
As for Alice, the act of devouring souls was one of the things she liked.
Aaron doesn't think that way, but he doesn't hate him either.
The two thought, even if they became monsters though, they would not care as long as it took to succeed their revenge plan.
He wanted to destroy all the countries that had invaded his kingdom as soon as possible.
While thinking about such a thing, Since now that the food problem had been resolved, Aaron started reciting a spell.
“…. . Teleportation, near the entrance of the large room. ”
He mentioned the place he wanted to go to and used [Teleportation] magic, besides that he also activated the [Labyrinth Management Device] skill, to make sure that he did not move in the wrong place,
Arriving at his destination, he immediately closed the door of the room tightly.
The large room was considered spacious, but not as spacious as the [Throne Room], in terms of the number of people it could accommodate. The reason why he moved to this room was to summon an existence that would protect this labyrinth from now on.
This room was not a special room, so he could not get a bonus when he called. Why did he choose this place? The reason was simple, the creatures he wanted to summon were numerous.
“…. Translocate, Demon Insect Secretary. ”
When he chanted the [Translocate] spell, a thick little book bound to an insect corpse appeared. It was one of the damned books just like the [scripture of catastroph] he had previously used.
Aaron opened the page expressionlessly, when he found the page he needed, he chanted [Summoning] while leaving the page open.
“…. . Summon, rotten flies”
A red magic formation appeared on the floor, from there appeared a large fly that was the size of a mouse. The fly also emits a foul odor that is very disgusting, which will make people vomit if they accidentally inhale it.
But Aaron who was in the room did not show any reaction, he remained calm with his flat face as usual.
1,
2,
3,
The number of flies kept increasing, Seeing this situation with cold eyes, Aaron recited the next spell.
“.... Summon, Arachnid Paralytic. ”
This time a yellow magic formation appeared on the floor, from which a dog-sized spider came out. The spider is green with a black feather that grows around its body
In addition, the back is a picture of a gray-brimmed skull and eight blood-red eyes, two main eyes and six additional eyes
Without counting the number of spiders coming out of the formation, he chanted another spell.
"….. Summon, Bone-Eater Caterpillar"
A purple formation appeared on the floor, from there came out a baby-sized white caterpillar. The caterpillar was filled with dirt all over its body, as it opened its mouth, it was filled with rows of sharp teeth like grinding flesh
The white caterpillars that gave off a disgusting impression, crawled out one by one from the magic formation.
While maintaining these 3 magic formations, he stared at the swarm of insects he summoned coldly.
when they were alone it was not a powerful existence, but when they were in large numbers, they would be an evil opponent to the enemy.
After he finished summoning these several hundred creatures, the magic formation was closed.
“I will hire this person outside the labyrinth, so that they can attack the enemies more easily. ”
While muttering, he gave a simple order to them.
To expand the Labyrinth, they need to find and kill a threatening enemy
