48. Let me know my failure (3)

[what?!]

Isel’s mouth fell open.

Both wings were trembling.

‘I’m getting used to this guy being surprised.’

I smiled and opened my mouth.

“I’m not leaving.”

[I’m serious?]

“Does it look like a joke?”

“brother?”

“why.”

“I’m not going out. Can I do that? Don’t you have to go out unconditionally if I tell you to?”

“Didn’t I tell you? You can say no.”

The hero has the right to disobey the master’s orders.

You are responsible for the outcome, though.

“It’s the first time I’ve heard of that. And in the past, people who didn’t want to fight weren’t taken by force?”

“It’s because they don’t know how.”

It’s not just about writing a bunch just because you don’t like it.

With a clearer will, to think as if arguing with the Master. If you do so, the hero’s intention will be reminded to the master as a system message. It was one of the know-how I gained while living here as a hero.

Issel circled around me and said.

[Think again, it’s dangerous!]

“Isn’t it dangerous to throw yourself into a dungeon at random?”

[but!]

I know what Isel wants to say.

There are certain orders that a hero can never refuse.

It was a compound command.

If Amkena gets mad at me and can’t stand it, then I’m stuck in a synthetic row. Unlike the hero, Isel, the deputy in the waiting room, will not be able to refuse the master’s orders.

I have no intention of giving up.

already made up my mind

“I won’t go.”

“What about us? Fight without you?”

said Iolka, as if snarling.

“You guys make the decision. I won’t stop you.”

The three people in the space-time gap were silent with embarrassed expressions.

A brief confrontation ensued. Aaron, who had his head down, hardened his eyes as if determined and straightened the spear. And he walked to the square.

“If my brother doesn’t go, I won’t go either.”

[‘Aaron(★)’ refused to participate!]

“If there was such a good thing, you shouldn’t have said it sooner. It makes people feel frustrated.”

Then Jenna followed.

[‘Jenna(★)’ refused to participate!]

“I-what am I supposed to do here alone?”

Finally, Iolka escaped from the space-time gap as if she were running away.

[‘Iolka (★★★)’ refused to participate!]

[‘Party 1’ has become inoperable.]

[Tips/Heroes sometimes strike. You can solve this by accepting their demands or punishing the ringleaders.]

‘Punish the ringleader?’

Isel flapped his wings and made an excuse.

[Hey, this is not a tip from me!]

“I know, dude.”

“So brother, what are you going to do?”

“We’ll have to wait and see. How the Master comes out.”

Amkena did not move the control panel as if she was quite surprised.

I don’t think I even imagined that the hero would strike. but. This kind of thing can’t happen in other mobile games.

If you had been watching the strategy, you would have known about this, but you won’t know because you haven’t seen it. If so, I can’t find a way to solve it properly.

I wasn’t expecting too much either.

After thinking about it for a while, Amkena made the expected choice.

Isel, instructed by the master, shouted.

[Edith, Roderick, Usher, d!cka!]

After a while, members of the 2 parties gathered in the plaza.

Edith approached me with a questioning face.

“Weren’t you guys going? Why did you call us?”

“We decided not to go.”

“What? How…”

I explained to Edith that she could not participate if she wanted to.

After hearing the explanation, Edith murmured.

“That’s dangerous.”

“I know.”

“If I can’t prove my worth to the Master…”

“I will die.”

“Will the Master like it if I don’t listen to orders?”

“If the master told you to die, would you die? Weren’t you fighting to live?”

“…”

Edith didn’t answer.

Of course. There was no such thing as loyalty to the hero in this waiting room. I didn’t want to die, so I was only half forcing myself to fight.

Edith returned to where the party members were gathered.

It seemed that they were having a meeting about this matter. after about 1 minute.

“We’re going out. We need growth. We don’t want to be synthesized.”

Edith looked at d!cka behind her as she spoke.

The complexion is still not good. It was less recovered from the impact on the 10th floor. It took me a little longer to get back into shape.

The 2nd party entered the space-time gap.

I was sitting on the bench next to him.

‘Growth.’

If Amkena’s purpose is to grow the party, then I don’t have to leave.

There are quite a few members who haven’t reached my level. The lower level tour was welcome.

But that’s not the problem.

“What about us in the future?”

said Jenna, who drew close to her side.

“Okay. It’ll work out somehow.”

“Somehow. It’s not like an older brother.”

“I can tell you one thing. If I die of synthesis, stop doing this right now and follow the Master’s orders. Otherwise you will die too.”

Jenna waved her hand.

“Ah. There’s no way my brother will die.”

“I agree.”

“I’ll admit that I’m persistent.”

“…”

‘These children. You’ve grown a lot.’

Then a message popped into my vision.

[‘Dika (★)’ is suffering from bleeding. Stamina decreases for a certain period of time.]

This is also expected.

Edith’s 2nd party, whose maintenance had not been completed, was struggling.

The stage will be on the 12th floor. Unlike the 11th floor, it seemed to be quite difficult.

[‘Usher(★★)’ is suffering from bleeding. Stamina decreases for a certain period of time.]

[‘Dica(★)’ is in fear… … .]

Messages announcing the deterioration of the party’s condition came to mind one after another.

One fortunate thing is that death messages do not come to mind.

Usher and d!cka were half out of combat, but it seemed like the two of them were fighting hard.

after a while

The 2nd party returned with the stage clear message.

Edith’s face was violently contorted.

“Did you grow up well?”

“…”

Usher and d!cka couldn’t even control themselves.

Roderick was supporting the two.

“one.”

“What.”

“Tell me how to reject an order.”

“That’s easy enough.”

I smiled and explained my know-how.

Edith sighed deeply. Then he looked up at the sky and said,

“I won’t even join the 2nd party.”

[‘Edith (★★★)’ refused to participate!]

In a well-coordinated party, the leader’s will may become the party’s will.

Then a message popped up.

[‘Party 2’ has become inoperable.]

It seems that choosing Edith as the leader of the sub party was the correct answer.

Participating in the inability to participate meant that Edith was thinking about the future rather than temporarily escaping.

Edith sheathed the daggers in both hands and returned to the inn with the other companions.

There was a lot of displeasure in the steps he left.

[Oh, this is getting bigger than I thought… … !]

Isel didn’t know what to do.

It’s true that it’s a big deal.

The two main attack groups, the two parties, became incapacitated at the same time.

Most of the functions that Amkena could do to party members were blocked. Not only the main dungeon, but also daily dungeons and exploration dungeons are not allowed out. It was safe to say that the operation of the waiting room had stopped halfway.

Amkena was connected and suspended operations.

I got up from the bench and walked to my inn.

Three people followed closely. I said.

“I won’t follow the Master’s instructions, but I’ll just do what I do. Training doesn’t stop.”

“If you’re not going to do it…”

“I’d rather strengthen it. Time will be left.”

“Ugh!”

Iolka furrowed her brow.

This guy worked hard on magic-related things, but showed a reaction close to neurosis to physical training. Still can’t help it.

“I also go to the dungeon every day. It just opened.”

Daily dungeons can also be reached through voluntary actions.

As an error compensation, it was necessary to collect materials as all dungeons were opened for 3 days. For the replenishment of the potion consumed on the 10th floor and for the 2-star promotion of Jenna and Aaron.

Daily life does not change.

I have no intention of spreading and playing just because I refuse to participate.

All we do is defy the master’s orders.

Adjust your condition so that you can fight at any time.

Amkena, which stopped operating for a while, immediately closed the connection.

after dissolution.

While looking at the strategy table in the room, Isel appeared with an urgent expression.

[What are you going to do if the master quits!]

“If you’re going to fold it, tell it to fold it.”

If you’re just that stupid, you won’t be able to climb the top anyway.

[What if I synthesize Loki!]

“It would be better to go without pain than to die while struggling.”

Resolving such a large-scale strike is surprisingly not difficult.

As mentioned in the tip, there is a hero who led this. You have to synthesize it.

Stress levels will run through the graphs, morale will hit rock bottom, but you won’t refuse orders.

After synthesis, it is not impossible to restore morale by calming down with gifts or rest facilities. Although Amkena doesn’t seem to have the sense to do that.

Other methods exist.

The most benign way is to find out the hero’s grievances and put them to rest.

But don’t expect this either. If there was such an idea, things wouldn’t have to be like this. If so, there is only one way left for Amkena.

next day.

I called the party members early in the morning and then went to the dungeon.

It was to collect the attribute stone, which is an upgrade material. Me and Iolka, Jenna and Aaron. In this way, two people were paired up and sent to different dungeons. I was able to obtain a lower class fire attribute stone.

After completing the tour, the training continued.

The lower swordsmanship level was already 6. It had reached a point where the level could hardly rise with simple training. I had to train by finding people with similar skills and fighting them or applying penalties.

Iolka, whose abilities were biased, had a special spell. To train telekinesis magic. That period is until the telekinesis skill is acquired. Iolka complained that he could only use fire magic, but he calmed down when he rebuked him for only feeding him potatoes. If they can freely use telekinesis magic, they will be able to achieve minimal self-defense without us.

That day, Amkena was not connected.

a few days like that By the time Isel grabbed me with a terrified face, wondering if it was really folded.

[Welcome to Pick Me Up!]

[Loading has finished.]

[TOUCH ! (selection)]

Amkena has logged in.

It was late after training, so I was drinking tea with Edith in the lobby.

Looking up at the sky, Edith said.

“Have you changed your mind?”

“No way.”

If the disease had been cured by doing so badly, it would not have gained such notoriety on the strategy site.

Anyway, as long as the 1st and 2nd parties are unable to participate, what the Master can do is limited. However, as if he had made up his mind, Amkena’s control window was moving quickly.

A message soon surfaced.

[Master, advanced summoning begins! You selected 3 consecutive advanced summons. A total of 1,500 gems are consumed. Would you like to summon?]

[Yes / No]

‘It’s here.’

This is the third solution to the strike.

Changing the attack party. Amkena still has some gems from the previous payment. In addition, 500 gems received as compensation for errors were added.

[Master, advanced summoning begins. I’m looking forward to what kind of hero will come out!]

[Tack, durururu.]

[Too bang!]

[Rare!]

[Master ‘Amkena’ has acquired the hero ‘Stein (★★★)’!]

[Rare!]

[Master ‘Amkena’ has learned the hero ‘Mazel (★★★)’!]

[Rare!]

[Master ‘Amkena’ has learned the hero ‘Tashir (★★★)’!]

Does that mean there are a lot of people to work with even if it’s not you?

I finished drinking the tea.
