Chapter 18: The Plan for the Sixteen Nights

"Bastard! Which community can directly attack all three-digit and more three-digit communities head-on at once! And not a single one has failed! Why such a strong community has never been heard! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Judging from the clues gleaned from the scene of the attack on the various communities, it is likely that the people who carried out the attack were just clones of a single person......"

"W-How is this possible!"

"How can such a person exist!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Yes...... The man who appeared a long time ago......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

"So...... Let's report on the losses in your community. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

……

Jen brought Sixteen Nights to the lobby on the highest floor of the headquarters and yelled impatiently

"What the hell are you thinking!?"

"It's just a matter of changing 'defeat the Demon King' to 'Defeat all the Demon Kings and related parties.'" Or do you say, 'If you have any problems with the Demon King, please contact Jen Russell' - you don't like the slogan? ”

"I can't laugh, it's not a joke at all! How terrifying the power of the demon king is, you should already understand it after seeing the entrance, right!? ”

"Of course. Wouldn't it be extreme to fight in a match with someone with such fun powers? ”

Sixteen Night, who was sitting on a bench in the hall, crossed his legs to the back of the chair in the front row, and said as if he wanted to fight the Demon King.

Ren, speechless. He asked Sixteen Nights

"It's ...... Interesting? Sixteen Nights, are you going to push the community to a dead end for your interests? ”

Jen's tone was stern. Because he could not ignore the proposition of the Sixteen Nights.

If...... If this man uses the community for his own entertainment, no matter how strong his combat power is, he can't accept it. The Black Rabbit must be consulted to expel him immediately.

Sixteen Nights said with a usual teasing smile on his face

"Definitely. This is an indispensable plan for the development of the guild. ”

"Plans? …… What does that mean? ”

"There's something I'd like to make sure. Little adult, you summoned us, how are you going to fight the Demon King? Since you can create that kind of ruin, it should be a 'demon king' with Hakuyasha-level power, right? ”

Jen fell silent. Although he has always said that he will defeat the demon king in order to regain his reputation, as the leader, he does not have a specific policy. Ren replied with his young wisdom

"First of all...... I'm going to secure the water first. As long as you make a suitable plan with new talents, although the water god level cannot solve the problem, there are ways to secure the water source. But for that, Sixteen Nights has achieved more than you imagined, and I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude! ”

"Oh, thank me."

Ignoring the sixteen nights of hehe's laughter, Jen continued

"As long as we can win the Gift Race steadily, the community will definitely become stronger. Even if you summon less powerful companions, as long as you unite as one, you will definitely be able to strengthen the community. Not to mention that people as talented as you are are summoned...... No matter what the gift, the competition should be able to challenge. ”

"Are you just looking forward to it?"

Sixteen nights are full of nonchalant casual responses.

"That's right...... That's exactly what happened! Sixteen nights you have put the community at risk only for your own amusement! Then the declaration that our community exists to defeat the Demon King If it spreads, a battle with the Demon King will be inevitable!? Do you really understand that!? ”

Ren, who couldn't bear to scream, slammed the walls of the hall. It seems that he has been holding this in his heart for a long time.

Looking at Ren in front of him, the ridiculous smile on the lips of Sixteen Nights was gone. He looked at him with contempt, and said

"It's useless. Is there a vain attempt to rebuild a community based on this kind of empty theory on paper? Not to mention anything to reclaim the glory. You've disappointed me, little adult. ”

"W-"

"――Participate in the Gift Contest to increase your strength? That's just the premise. I'm asking how to defeat the Demon King. ”

"Just, that is, to increase your strength by participating in the Gift Contestβ€”"

"-Let me ask you, the previous community also participated in the Gift Competition, didn't they increase their strength?"

"This ...... This ......"

Ren Yu was plugged. Sixteen Nights continued without giving him the slightest respite

"Further, was the growth of the community so strong before, just by virtue of the gift?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's not ......"

What makes the community strong is the gift of power, and the people who have it. That is, talent.

Gifters who make a living from their talents naturally want to join a well-known community. But now their own community ...... But there are no key names or flags.

"We don't have a name or a flag. There is not even a symbol of community. That being the case, the existence of the community can only be publicized verbally. That's what you called us, right? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

"The current situation is like having no sign for doing business. Of course, ThousandEyes doesn't consider NoName as its customer. Because, after all, [NoName] is the majority of communities without a name, and it is likely to be risky to easily believe it. Don't you understand that you have to bear this negative impact in order to build a community that transcends the previous generation? ”

"Transcendence...... ...... community of the previous generation!? ”

This fact slammed down on Kim's head like a hammer.

The community of the last generation that was looked at differently by the entire Hakoniwa city.

This is the fact that Ren who has no talent, just went with the flow to become the leader, and said "defeat the demon king" has been evading, but at this moment it was pointed out by the sixteen nights.

Sixteen nights were merciless, and continued to say to the wordless benevolence

"Look at it like this, you kid really didn't think about anything."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

Regret, and the weight of this fact, have made Jen unable to hold his head up. However, Sixteen Nights pressed his shoulder and laughed mischievously

"Since we have no name and no banner, don't we have to sell the name of the chief?"

Ren Meng, who was awakened by these words, raised his head. At the same time, he was aware of Sixteen Nights' intentions. Sixteen Nights deliberately emphasized the name of the leader Ren to the invaders, and it was for this reason.

"You emphasize my name...... Is it to show the existence of community? ”

"Yes. That's a good idea, isn't it? ”

Ren looked at the smug smile in front of him, and the eyes of the sixteenth night were no longer the same as just now. Obviously with admiration. Ren, who had pondered his words several times in his mind, also began to think seriously about this plan.

"Yes, indeed...... This is an effective means. Let the leader be the face of the community and declare the existence of the community...... Maybe you can really get credit that matches the name and flag. ”

It's like a white yaksha. Although she is only a cadre in [ThousandEyes], her name is well-known in the southeast and northwest of Hakoniwa, and she has a strong reputation. Because well-known leaders can often rival the existence of banners.

"But that's not enough. It lacks the impact to spur the rumors to spread. Therefore, the rumors of Jen Russell, a young man who held high the banner of 'defeating the Demon King' - even if only once - had the fact that he had led the crowd to victory - would spread like a wave. And it's not just the Demon King who reacts to this. ”

"Who, more?"

"Of course, it's someone who also has the same ambition to 'defeat the Demon King'."

The Demon King will challenge the powerful community with a playful attitude. It's not an exaggeration to say that they exist in Hakoniwa for entertainment. As a result, they destroyed many star-like communities. The strong man who was defeated by the Demon King's departure has a very high probability of defeating the Demon King buried in his heart.

A concrete plan that Jen had never imagined was now ringing in his chest.

Because what the Sixteen Nights said is very likely to come true.

"Promote the existence of the community with my name......"

"Not bad. This event is an opportunity. The opponent is under the banner of the Demon King, and it is a game that is sure to win. And the victims are many small and weak communities. Just take this opportunity to promote the name of the little adultβ€”"

In the community near the outer gate of 2105380, there may be a lot of waves.

As long as you help the community that is tormented by the community under the Demon King's banner, the rumors will gradually expand in the shadows.

"Of course, what Your Excellency is worried about is also the possibility of attracting other demon kings. However, there should be a precedent for defeating the Demon King. Right? ”

Black Rabbit once said. "As long as you defeat the Demon King, it is possible to establish a subordinate relationship with the Demon King." This is a proof of defeating the Demon King, and at the same time an opportunity to pull powerful pawns into the organization.

"What the community lacks most now is talent. I don't want to be like me, but at least I want to find someone who can keep up with me. However, it is up to you to accept or oppose it. If there is a better plan, I would not hesitate to help? ”

Jen reacquainted himself with the sixteen nights of the smile in front of him. The anger in my heart just now has long since disappeared cleanly.

His plan sounded. However, it is easy to agree, but it should not be forgotten that there are huge risks. Ren made the conditions for himself to be able to firmly embark on this road.

"I have one condition. Sixteen Nights, can you participate in this Gift Contest hosted by [ThousandEyes] alone? ”

"What? Want to see what I'm capable of? ”

"There's a reason for that. But there's another reason. In this game, there will be another important presence that we must recapture. ”

For a community, a treasure that rivals a name and a banner -

"Could it be...... A partner from the past? ”

"Yes. And not ordinary partners. It's the original Demon King! ”

……

Bai Chen, who had returned to the community a few minutes ago, continued to collapse in his original position, as if nothing had happened just now.

"It's boring......"

Then he enveloped his divine thoughts in the place where the sixteenth night and Ren were.
