Chapter 4
[Royal Castle]
You can see a sword-patterned wooden round table with 4 chairs surrounding it filled with people occupying it...
There were three dark silhouettes with heavy voices. Sounding like an old man... and one man in silver armor without a helmet and wearing a golden crown...
"So, according to Lord Lionet, there will be a great change in the world?" ??? (1)
"Hoho, this is the first time in decades that he has said that." (2)
"I hope there will be no more disasters like that!" ??? (3)
"Of course, none of us want that incident to happen again" Lionet
"My lord, allow me to dispatch a squadron of griffons to patrol the vicinity of the Lorah Forest, just in case 'it' is born into this world." ??? (1)
"Very well then..."
"My Lord, Allow Me to Add!" ??? (3)
"What do you want to say?" Lionet
"I want to give Zesta laboratory authority" ??? (3)
"Zesta? I don't really like that guy, his nature, it doesn't suit me. Give me a good reason to give him the authority you want." Lionet
"We have been investigating a disease that has infected residents around the West Gate, a disease we believe to be highly contagious." (3)
"CONTAGIOUS?! We may become too vulnerable, we must take this outbreak seriously" (2)
"I therefore propose that Zesta research the disease further, and create a cure potion for it" ??? (3)
"Hmm, then I'll allow it"
"Thank you Your Highness-" ??? (3)
"On one condition, if we find another option that is equally or more effective and efficient than Zesta, we will choose that option." Lionet
"Yes my lord" ??? (3)
"Then it is decided, hereby, to disband" Lionet
[Ruler's Private Room]
"Hm? This?"
Dante woke up in a room that was not familiar to him, it was a room that Dante and other guild members often stayed in...
*This room? Private room huh? A room that I designed and created for Guild Member Characters, so that energy recovery is faster*.
"Good afternoon, you're awake Mr. Dante" Albis
*Albis? Is he always with me while I sleep?
"Albisu, how long have I been asleep?"
"2 days my lord, I'm sure that Ogre Prince will be very grateful to you" Albis
*Very grateful well, the concept of names here is set differently huh? *
"Then I'd like to take a short walk"
"Alone."
"At least, let me be with an-" Albis
"A-L-O-NE"
"Yes my lord" Albis
Dante emerged from his chambers, wearing his usual black noble clothes...
He met some maids in the hallway downstairs, they bowed their heads and greeted him...
"Good Morning Your Majesty" (1) & (2)
*If I'm not mistaken, the maid holding the broom is named Rinda and the one holding the feather duster is Soya, Rinda is a Beastman Race woman with a coyote breed, and Soya is an Insectar Race girl who was put on a language modifier by her designer, Phantasmal997-san, so that she can communicate normally because she roams freely in the castle*
"Good Morning Rinda, Sora, Thank you for your hard work" Dante
"A-Anything for you Your Highness!"
The two of them spoke stammeringly, as they were interacting directly with the sovereign, making them nervous...
Dante continued walking to the outside of the castle, meeting with one of the pillar servants, Reinhard Von Colheart...
He kneels before Dante, worshiping him ...
"You're awake my lord, I'm sorry, I should have given some of my Magic Energy for you to give the Ogre a name."
"No need Reinhard, this proves to me that I am far from being 'Strong', I still need a lot of time to become the ruler I dream of being."
Dante gazed up at the bright sky with no darkness, imagining his hands reaching for the edge of the sky with his hands...
"Although I do not know what kind of ruler you dream of becoming, to me and the other servants, you are the sole and absolute ruler of everything"
"Hohoho, Reinhardt, your words are pretty heavy to bear, 'World Ruler' huh? Then help me realize it Reinhard" Dante
"Giving the World to you, is the Highest Honor I desire, Your Majesty."
After a little chat with Reinhard, Dante left to walk leisurely, hallway by hallway... Reaching the outside of the Phase 4 Labyrinth Wall, in front of the wooden gate, right after he got there...
*This place... New, is it?
He saw dozens of ogres carrying wood, hammering nail after nail, several houses had been created...
"Mr. Dante, you're awake, thank goodness you're okay."
The little girl with one horn on her forehead ran up to Dante with a smile...
*Who is this boy? Since when is there a race this normal around Gottheit Castle?
"Are you surprised, Your Highness?"
There came a light-skinned, dark-red-haired, one-horned, black-colored young ogre with sharp ears and small fangs protruding...
"You, this voice, Young Ogre?!"
"Ahaha, like you could tell right away" Agito
"Please call me by the name you gave me, my lord"
"Ahahaha, I see, I see"
*What is this?! He was previously dark-skinned, had two white horns and long fangs, this change is only caused by the name? Seriously?
"Haha"
*Albis, can you explain what happened in front of me? *(Telepathy with the game system)
*Ah, what is in front of you is a special phenomenon when the Demonoid Race is given by someone else, to give a name certainly requires a lot of magic energy, I guess that's what made you fall limp.* Albis
*I see, then continue*
*And the phenomenon that is in front of you right now is Family Connection, where giving a name to the group leader, will also have an effect on the creatures that are under the shade of the group leader.* Albis
*From what I have heard from several sources in the wild, after receiving the Special Effect Connection, the people under the group leader's care can be named by the group leader or their parents without them having to give their magical energy, because it is already borne by the group leader's name giver* Albis
*Eeh~ it's that complicated*
"Introducing Your Highness, Her name is Dowa, She can be called my daughter" Agito
"Eh~ you're already Agito-kun's daughter, I didn't expect you to be such a person"
"What kind, sir?" Dowa
"No, not like that"
Agito immediately put his mouth close to Dante's ear... flipping...
"Actually Dowa is the Daughter of a pair of ogres who died in a previous battle, I forced Dowa to faint during the battle so she doesn't remember much about the battle." Agito
"Does she know?"
"No, Your Highness."
"Then be honest with Her, I learned from my past, a lie that is long-lasting, will only become a time bomb that can explode at any time"
"Yes, Your Majesty" Agito
"And one more thing, Your Majesty, my friends and I would like to join your battle unit." Agito
"You? My Battle Unit?"
"Yes" Agito
"Hmm, go to the Main Hall in the afternoon, we'll talk about it together"
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Dante." Agito
After that Dante took a walk, passing tree after tree, finding a fairly strong waterfall flowing in front of him...
"This? Isn't that strange? Since when is there some kind of wolf here?"
He immediately noticed it, using his Innate Skill that could see and feel the raw form of magic, [Magic Sense].
*So this is the Innate Skill in my Demon Race, I guess I really have to increase my experience first about the skills I have*
"Wogh! Wogh! Wogh!"
More of those Black Wolves started barking...
*It looks like there are dozens of them, so it's time for me to try that*
That is...
The thing Dante did right before exiting the front door of the castle was to go to the armory room, where there were the tools Dante needed to forge the weapons he wanted... He realizes as he fights with the Krugol "I don't have sharp nails? Since when do demons have such neat nails?"...
He made them, prototypes of the real thing... A blueprint that he drew himself, designed himself, made himself... Evil Claw. The prototype is still full of flaws when compared to the original... But...
"Hehe, I'm sure this is enough for your size, if you don't come to me then, I will!, Heup!"
Dante lunged at the wolves tearing them apart with one hand (because the clawed glove prototype was only made for the right hand), but on several occasions Dante missed, he was attacked by the wolf leader's innate skill, [Wind Flow] manipulating the wind around his target, partially to fully controlling the target's direction of movement.
Of course that didn't make them all alive...
"Wow, it takes more than a minute, that's because I haven't used it yet, I guess there will be a Round 2"
Kring!
