80 – Kingdom short selling method 16

“That… Is it really? That Bahamut… No, that he is the same as the rest of Elios-sama’s hands and feet?”

“Under the circumstances, it is very likely. I have already confirmed with myself regarding that.”

“Oh oh… ”

Sponsors who have supported you so far

At Laira Matani’s words, the middle-aged Captain Sakiel, Iscal’s face began to glow with admiration.

Ellios Nospelat Dragona, their master and the princess of the Dragona Empire.

It was because she never imagined that her hand would reach out to one of the continent’s greatest colossus.

“Good. I wasn’t even able to contact Princess Baekryong because the surveillance was so severe, but this kind of good news… ”

“I agree. To be honest, there are limits to how to separate the relationship with the king, but if that person is an ally, the story will be different.”

They had been on the defensive ever since Bahamut came.

No matter how hard they tried to remove the power of the Kingdom of Hungary, there was no way to overcome Bahamut, who poured support based on overwhelming funds and resources.

By the way, all of that was actually a plan to destroy Hungary for sure.

For them, who were plotting things for the Dragona Empire, it could be said that the news was like rain falling during a drought.

“If so, what should we do in the future? Would you like to continue working like this? Otherwise…”

“Ah, we have already finished talking about that. Bahamut-sama will focus on the complete annihilation of the Black Legion in his own way by forming alliances with the Dragona Empire, so we just have to continue working on our own.”

“Well sir. Then, the Sakiel Knights will proceed as planned.”

Just like that, the desire for the future, which had been forgotten for a while, began to wriggle again on Iskal’s face, having shaken off the worries and worries he had just now.

‘Good. With this, there are no more variables to hinder our plans. It’s not long now… the moment of glory that this body will greet with the power of the Dragona Empire on its back…’

Although he was in the position of Sakiel’s elder, he had come this far with the help of the Dragona Empire.

In that respect, the Dragona Empire’s unofficial warning that has been coming down for a while.

He tried to carry out the demand to stop the slave business by any means, but the benefits of the business were so great that other elders refused to do so, and eventually the work came to this point.

As a result, Iskal, who unwillingly became a victim of stabbing his master, the Dragona Empire,

But. He soon began looking for an opportunity to turn this situation around by linking up with another of his patrons, Princess Leila.

Although he declared war, the main purpose of the Rose Emperor was Sakiel, who went against his will and carried out the slave trade, and in that sense, Iscal is in a position to claim indulgence for this.

Accordingly, he personally attempted to negotiate with his actual master, the Dragona Empire, and as a result, he succeeded in obtaining satisfactory conditions.

And, now that the last variable, the risk of Bahamut, has disappeared in this work,

He was in the middle of tasting the feeling that the final goal he wanted all the time was in his hands.

“Okay, it was scheduled for tomorrow night, right? make sure you handle it without mistakes. Only when your plan goes well can my affairs be resolved easily.”

“of course. We will do it perfectly without any errors.”

After completing the final check, the two left the room at the same time with a smile on their lips.

Sakiel’s large army finally finished gathering everyone.

The total number was 90,000, which was higher than expected, and it was the result of the competitive spirit between each knightly order regarding the number of troops to bring it in at the last minute.

The knights who risked considerable blood loss due to the idea that they had to bring even one more member than knights from other regions.

Of course, it was definitely a positive phenomenon for winning the war, but at the same time, it could be said to be a phenomenon that indirectly showed how great the antagonism between Sakiels was, even though they belonged to the same group.

But anyway, now that the long-awaited troop gathering had been successfully completed, the elders and other executive-level Sakiels were congratulating themselves on the current situation and having a drink together as a last leisure.

“Ahahahaha! This is great. I couldn’t believe that our Sakiels’ potential would be this much! I was expecting it, but seeing it in action is truly amazing!”

“Anyway, aren’t we the ones holding the underground economy of this continent! At this level, even the Dragona Empire will lower its tail just with its might.”

“The Hungarians rebuilt the Black Legion by chance. King Mohichi, who saw the strength of our Sakiels, is probably hiding in the corner of the room and trembling by now!”

The elders and executives chattering cheerfully while half-drunk.

Even though they were the Sakiel Knights, who were far from united to the extent that even they did not completely trust the other party gathered in one place, nevertheless, the sense of intimidation given by the pure numbers was obviously great.

“Come on, get yourself a drink.”

“Yes? Ha… But right now I’m on an escort mission…”

“Okay, take a drink! Anyway, if it’s not today, I won’t be able to see the bottle for a while. Three of my special shoots!”

In a very encouraging atmosphere, the elders and executives begin to pay attention to even the subordinates who they normally do not take care of.

In fact, it was true that there was no time to drink other than today, as a forced march was scheduled from tomorrow, and the escort soldiers also began to receive drinks one by one, feeling a little uncomfortable.

“Kaa.. good, good. I don’t get drunk, but today this drink really sticks to my mouth!”

“That’s right. You can already see the Chief Elder as two, can you draw?”

“I don’t know who procured the alcohol, but it’s very strong.”

“Ah, that was prepared by our youngest elder elder! That young man has saved a very sweet Mi-joo!”

“hahahaha, he knows something! To be honest, I was a little embarrassed when I opposed slavery while noticing the Drago Empire, but these days, that kind of thing has completely disappeared! A lot of troops are brought in, and a lot of good wine is served!”

“Come on, drink, drink! Let’s get very drunk today!”

The elders, officers, and their bodyguards were immersed in a carousing atmosphere while drinking like that.

And… while watching this, that person…

Captain Iskal gave orders to the men gathered behind him in a quiet voice.

“Chuck.”

At the same time as the words fell, Sachiels entered the tent with weapons.

Then, for a while, a commotion began to be heard in the tent, and soon it became quiet as if dead.

The time when the sun rises in mid-heaven. Sensing doubts about the elders and key executives who did not appear no matter how long they waited, Sakiels began to express their doubts.

“What happened? Why haven’t I seen the other high-ranking people yet?”

Iscal asked in a sharp voice.

In response, one of the commanders of the Knights of Sakiel spoke to him in an embarrassing voice.

“That…that… To be honest, we don’t even know. Obviously, if it was as planned, you should have come out and reviewed the soldiers..”

“Aren’t you… still drunk and sleeping? I heard that the other five godfathers and executives had a drinking party last night.”

“Haa.. Oh, I said that you can have a drinking party after everything is over, but it’s over..”

Iscal speaks with a frustrated expression.

Then, as if he couldn’t help it, he spoke to the knight commanders who were present.

“I can’t, you guys follow me. With me, there won’t be much noise even if I forcefully wake up the other five godfathers.”

“Ah.. yes.”

“I understand, Chief.”

With Iscal, the Sakiel Knights head to the place where the drinking party took place last night.

And…the scene they saw there…

“!”

“what… what is this… ”

“Now.. the elders.. uh… how.”

“Everyone, even our executives… This… it can’t be…”

What they see before their eyes is the figure of Sakiel’s high-ranking officials who have already become cold corpses.

And… In the middle of their corpses was stuck something that their eyes were not accustomed to.

A flag depicting a roaring lion.

Sakiels could recognize at a glance what it symbolized.

“I… Could that be…”

“Huh…the Kingdom of Hungary?”

“They…couldn’t they have played like this? No matter how it is, how can all the elders and executives… ”

I can’t believe it at all, but it’s clear evidence that I have no choice but to believe.

At this, emotions of confusion and anger began to bloom on the faces of the Sakiel Knights Commanders, and at the same time, a cold smile began to bloom on Iscal’s lips.
