I Fell into the Game with Instant Kill

Chapter 93.1: Weapon Crafting ! Thank you to Pop and Violet for the donations! ^^

I came out of the meeting room and organized what I was going to do next.

Finding the heir or assassinating one master of the Magic Tower.

It wasn’t hard to decide which of the two to do first.

First, deal with the tower master.

The Overlord gave me a long grace period of a year, but nothing good would come out of procrastinating.

Because I didn’t have any plans about what should I do or how I should deal with it.

If I didn’t solve it in time, they could question my ability. That could make things difficult.

It would be better to start the search for the heir after finishing all chores without distraction.

Still, wouldn’t it be better to take care of the mystery first?

Two mysteries hidden in Santea.

It wouldn’t take much time, so it would be better to find those before assassinating the tower master.

They might be even of some help in dealing with the target.

First find the mysteries, then deal with the tower master, and finally start looking for the heir earnestly…

“…?”

I noticed a person in the distance and tilted my head.

It was because the Wiseman was standing where Ti-Yong was waiting.

Purr.

Ti-Yong was constantly crying out as if he was wary of the Wiseman beside him.

And the Wiseman kept a distance and looked at Ti-Yong with curious eyes.

As soon as I got closer, he turned his gaze to me and started talking.

“Did you finish your conversation with the Overlord?”

Was he waiting for me?

I didn’t have any business with him, so I wondered why he would.

I looked at him blankly without answering and asked.

“Do you know what I talked about with the Overlord?”

“I don’t know. Asking that means nothing. I just asked it as a greeting.”

The Wiseman shook his head and then said.

“I’ve been waiting because I have something I want to ask you. Regarding the Neutral Nations Conference you took part in last time…”

“…”

“I heard that the Seventh Lord sided with the Earth Hill Kingdom and prevented the outbreak of war.”

I wondered why that subject suddenly appeared here, but I still nodded.

“I did.”

“Is the reason you helped Earth Hill because of a personal connection? Or is it for some other purpose?”

“I don’t think I have any reason to answer that.”

The main story, Tair, and various other things were the reasons, but there was no need to explain that to him.

Rather, why was the Wiseman suddenly interested in this?

“I didn’t mean to pry. Just consider it as an old man worrying.”

He saw my blank expression and continued.

“As I said before, I don’t want any cracks in the current system of Calderic. All the Lords have their own thoughts and opinions. But it doesn’t mean that it should lead to a conflict. “

“…?”

“Even if we have different beliefs, we can coexist as long as we know when to step back and when to not. So many people had sat on the seats of a Lord and there had been so many conflicts in between. The fact that Calderic is still standing strong until today proved that the current system is not a failure.

I couldn’t understand the context of his words.

I wondered what this dwarf was talking about out of the blue.

“I don’t know what you’re trying to say.”

The Wiseman tried to say something more to him, but seemed to give up.

“That’s probably a long and useless statement for you. What I want to say is that if there’s a conflict with another Lord in the future, I hope you wouldn’t solve it in a radical way, just like you did when you killed the Sixth Lord. I know you already made a promise with the Overlord, so you probably don’t have to hear this. But still…”

His gaze suddenly turned to Asher, who was standing behind me.

“…And child of the White Moon tribe, what is your name?”

At those words, I furrowed my brows.

He must have heard everything that happened at the Neutral Nations Conference, and he seemed to know that Asher was a member of the White Moon tribe.

At the sudden question, Asher glanced at me and answered.

“This is Asher.”

“Last name?”

“…It’s Gronhilde.”

A strange look passed over the Wiseman’s eyes for a moment.

He nodded and said.

“What a happy coincidence. Do you know the name Gabrom Gronhilde?”

…Gabrom Gronhilde?

I was able to immediately remember where I heard the owner of that name.

A distant ancestor of Asher that was mentioned in the game.

Because he was the founder who created the fighting technique used by the White Moon tribe, which Asher was currently learning, albeit still imperfect.

“Of course I know…”

Asher murmured in a bewildered voice.

“It’s a story from hundreds of years ago. I had a small relationship with him during your ancestor’s lifetime. I made a bet once and lost, so I made him a sword.”

“…!”

Asher’s eyes widened at the Wiseman’s words.

I was a bit surprised because I knew nothing about it either.

What does he mean by this?

There was a connection between the First Lord, the Wiseman, and Asher’s ancestors who created the fighting technique of her tribe?

There was never anything related to it in the game.

However, since that fact was mentioned, I couldn’t help but think of something that was related to the game.

Come to think of it, Asher’s sword…

Asher, who first appeared as a knight of the Black Star Order in the game, had her own dedicated weapon, unlike now.

A famous sword that was called ‘Spear Sword’, whose entire blade was completely blue.

But I didn’t know until now where she got it. It’s because the information didn’t come out even in the setting book.

Later, when she joined the player group and her colleagues asked her about it, she avoided answering and never properly informed them.

But looking at it now, it seemed that the person who made the sword was the Wiseman.

As a Black Star Knight belonging to the Overlord Castle, if he had a relationship with her ancestor, he would have made a weapon for Asher.

When she became a knight of Black Star, she had already proudly revealed that she was a member of the White Moon tribe.

Was it really like that?
