World's Strongest Troll

Chapter 207 Why are you touching that? (3)

Prince Dmitry of the Harmel Empire.

He was awake from his sleep by the Duke of Diern, who came to visit him late at night, but he was still dressed up and greeted him.

“What are you doing at this late hour, Duke of Diern?”

Late in the morning when everyone is asleep. But he spoke with an excited voice and a slightly flushed face.

“I have obtained something that will be of great power to the Empire.”

“Something that will help...? What are you talking about?”

The Duke of Diern began to explain the process of acquiring the Dragon Bone. However, Dmitri, who was listening to the story, muttered with an expression of disbelief.

“Huh..... The Duke of Diern is telling me to believe it now? A dragon's skull in perfect condition? I've never heard of such a thing existing on this continent, and even if it did, how could one of the guilds have it?”

“Of course I can't believe it, but it's true, Prince. There is no reason for me to ask for a meeting this late at night for no reason, is there?”

“.....”

The Duke of Diern, a competent chancellor responsible for the enormous finances and internal affairs of the empire, no one else. Dimitri's expression, seeing his sincere expression, also began to harden, as he, who was full of intelligence and dizziness more than anyone else, had no reason to tell obvious lies with absurd stories for no reason.

“That means...”

“That's right, Prince. It seems that the day when you will become His Majesty the emperor of this empire is not far off.”

Prince Dmitry was more ambitious than anyone else. Under normal circumstances, there shouldn't have been any problems with being installed as the crown prince from a young age, inheriting the throne and becoming emperor.

However, his temper was so violent and greedy that he did all sorts of bully-like acts, so the current emperor hesitated to install Dmitri as crown prince. And in the meantime, showing great genius, he quickly attracted the attention of nobles and major ministers, and his two-year-old younger brother, Vines, the second prince of the empire, emerged as a strong competitor.

[I haven't decided which of you two will be the next emperor of this empire. So.... Prove each other to me. I wonder who will be able to take over this great and splendid empire I created so that its glory and honor will not be shaken.]

Thus began the scramble for the throne.

In the chaotic situation of not deciding who would become the emperor, the main nobles of the empire began to line up between the two brothers. However, because of his eccentric personality and outrageous behavior, Dmitri started to be pushed by his younger brother. The ability he possesses also did not show such an exceptional aspect, so the grades he showed to the emperor were also pitiful and insignificant.

“A huge amount of dragon bones. If the Empire can absorb all of this and process it into powerful weapons... The Empire's power will be stronger than ever before, so that no country dares to oppose it. To the extent that even the Holy Empire would not dare to do anything about it.”

And even after making up for all of Dmitri's lackluster performance, the dragon bone, a material that remains for a long time and can reverse it. Through that, the Duke of Diern planned to raise him to the position of emperor. And after hearing his sweet words, Dmitri smiled stupidly as he imagined his own brilliant future as soon as his irritation melted away like snow.

“Keukkeu..... is that so? That's great. I will never forget your help.”

“It is natural. Don't think of it as help, please feel free to accept it.”

I know it's not even in my heart, but I'm still in a good mood, Dmitri. He exuded a friendly atmosphere and asked the Duke of Diern.

“Rather... so where is that thing?”

“I hid it safely in my mansion.”

“Let's move to this imperial palace as soon as possible. Your mansion is safe enough, but wouldn't the treasure house of the imperial palace be the safest?”

“Prepare to do so, I will tell you.”

In the midst of discussing the best way to increase Dmitri's political standing by using the dragon bone. The Duke of Diern said as if he had suddenly remembered.

“Oh, and I have something to tell you about the Dragon Bone.”

“What are you talking about?”

“The guild that moved the item and the original owner are separate. All of them are known as a group of adventurers... They will probably struggle to find the Dragon Bone.”

Dmitri is fully aware that it was already obtained through looting. Whether the original owner was an adventurer or a resident of Arcadia, he thought that there was no one who could fight against the mighty empire and retrieve the item anyway, so Dmitri smiled and said as if it was nothing.

“What was that about? What are some bug-like adventurers doing?”

Dmitry asked back in a mocking tone full of ridicule. To him, the Duke of Diern nodded as if agreeing.

“It is.”

“Never mind that. We have a lot to worry about and we don't have enough time to care about such trifles.”

But these two did not know.

That this conversation they had and the delicate political dynamics of this complex running empire are monitored and analyzed by someone, and they are lighting the fire that turns another huge wheel of chaos.

[Singularity detection, Harmel Empire.]

[Analyzing the relationship of events..... First-class surveillance target Dex.]

[Switch to intensive analysis mode.]

[Generate an expected scenario.....]

After the 24-hour access limit is lifted.

Jaeyoung asked coldly as he saw the emaciated Apple and Lemon who had come to see the note he had sent.

“Could you please explain? What is this situation?”

The skull of Kervenian, which I handed over to them with all sorts of good intentions, as a major shareholder in the top of the pie with a 50% stake and a pleasure to meet after a long time. I asked to dispose of it at a high price, but rather than dispose of it, there were too many people, even Jae-young, to smile and welcome those who had been robbed.

“I'm really sorry.”

“Huh... heh... I’m sorry.”

They didn't even say it, but as if they had promised, both of them got down on their knees and apologized. But Jaeyoung said in a colder voice.

“I understand that you are sorry, so please tell me everything about breaking up with me.”

Apple noticed that they wanted an explanation, not an apology for things that went wrong. Jae-young, who had been listening to him explain what had happened for a long time, asked with an absurd face when he realized that the culprit who robbed his belongings was the GM.

“Did GM rob my belongings?”

“Yes.....”

The GM upper management, which had been entangled in bad ties from the beginning. Jaeyoung frowned and muttered in a voice full of annoyance as he recalled the face of the top merchant who hadn't had any trouble since the Maroon Kingdom.

“Eh. Those damn bastards still ain't broke I still can't come to my senses.”

Seeing them repeat mistakes that even an IQ of 81 wouldn't make, I wondered what the IQ of the top class was.

“Once I have all the related videos. I received all the play videos from the mercenaries who were escorting our guild and the users who belonged to us. I have also contacted the operator and the customer center. I am preparing now to hire a lawyer and legally file a lawsuit.”

“...is this a legal lawsuit?”

“I'm not sure... but I'll have to try it anyway.”

A heinous crime, robbery, and murder that cannot be avoided in the real world.

Perhaps if Arcadia were real, you would have already been in prison and eating beans, but the incident in virtual reality is just an illusion. The lawyer who recommended that they file a lawsuit with this seemed more insane, but seeing the two people struggling to catch at least a straw, Jae-young couldn't face it anymore.

“First of all, don’t try your best to file a lawsuit with a lawyer. I wonder if the court will hold a trial based on what happened in the game.”

“But, first of all, filing a lawsuit...”

“If you don’t want to, don’t. Do you want to become a world-famous celebrity by saying that you are suing for no reason, but your identity is stolen and the media is popular?”

“.....”

“And can you file a lawsuit against GM Group and walk around the streets comfortably at night in Korean society? If you find out who filed the lawsuit, I don't think you'll stay there from then on.”

As it is a foreign company, Arcadia Co., Ltd. continues to ignore Korea's request to provide personal information. That's why GM couldn't do anything about it, but if they filed a lawsuit and revealed their identity, the situation was bound to become more complicated.

“That's like that...”

“Brother... black...”

The two of them were quite taken aback as if they hadn't thought of that. Tan, who was watching this, muttered something funny behind him.

“Kekekekeke. Is the owner going to find that GM company or something?”

“Repentance with sincerity can always be forgiven. It is not right to reprimand the victims who have been denied their best efforts without any selflessness.”

Tan smiles a sinister smile full of anticipation, saying that the moment of chaos, destruction, and destruction has come again. And L looks at these two with pitiful eyes and asks for forgiveness. Seeing the two of them showing interest in very contradictory contents, Jaeyoung fell into thought.

‘Well... even if he is robbed, there is no particular damage.....'

The huge bones of Kervenian filled with his inventory. Compared to them, his skull was only a small part.

In addition to the astronomical gold already in his hands and rare items filled with rare items worth calling.

Since Jae-young had already gone to the United States beyond the normal level of financial sense, the dragon's skull was just a small amount of money. Of course, it wasn't at all from Apple's and Lemon's point of view.

“We will compensate you as much as possible, even by handing over all of our corps’ shares.”

“Hey hey... please forgive me.”

Although the value has not been set, Apple and Lemon know better than anyone that the value is not at an ordinary level. So, the two of them asked for forgiveness, saying that they would hand over all the property they had, but Jae-young firmly refused the offer.

“no, I do not want. Why bother taking that top?”

“yes....?”

The two questioned him with a puzzled expression. Jaeyoung grumbled with an expression of genuine annoyance.

“I know I did wrong, but that doesn’t mean that it comes back just because I handed over all the stakes in the top division. Rather, if I become the owner of a merchant enterprise, I will have to take care of all sorts of miscellaneous business operations necessary for the operation of the merchant enterprise, but if I, who is not a merchant, rises to such a position, I will soon fail.”

“.....”

The two look confused as if they don’t know how to react to Jaeyoung’s words. As the two of them kept their mouths shut, Jaeyoung smiled and said.

“First, let’s get that thing.”

“yes....? how....?”

“I thought the area that was robbed was... the Harmel Empire, right?”

“Yes.....”

“Go to the nearest guard in the area that was robbed and report the damage. And send me all the related videos. Let's start with that.”

Jaeyoung smiled wickedly as he pondered all sorts of scenarios in his head in case rumors spread that he had handled this job neatly.

“What happened in the game, let’s solve it in the game.”

For some reason, it was Jae-young who had an ominous (?) sign that this incident would never end small.
