C89.2:

The President on the Evil God side vs. Me on the Lord God side (2)

“Aaaaah! I’ve endured it!”

All right! This is the end of the attacks. We’ve managed to survive!

“What’s going on? Why are two of your trump card god statues activated at the same time! I’ve never heard of that! Hey, explain it to me!”

I wanted to bask in the afterglow of my victory, but the shouting interrupted me. I don’t have the obligation to tell you what I did here, but I want to hear your frustration, so I’ll tell you.

The statue needs to be controlled by the player to move, so until now I could only move one of them. But I gave my old phone with 《Village of Fate》 still installed on it to the God of Nature just in case.”

It was that simple. This is the real reason why I recently bought a new phone. I handed him my old phone and I used the new one. If he misused the phone, my village would be finished, but I trusted him like he trusted me.

This made it possible for me to activate and move two god statues at the same time, so I could concentrate on the offensive. He was a reclusive gamer just like me, so he was used to controlling the statues. Incidentally, I met up with him at a coffee shop, and he was a small boy with a hoodie hood pulled up tightly over his eyes.

In the middle of our conversation, he took off the hood and showed me his real face, which I think was probably a man. It was hard to judge because he had a neutral face that older women would like.

Which gender? I couldn’t even ask, so it’s actually still a mystery to me. I met him at a coffee shop not only because I wanted to give him my phone, but also because I wanted to take him out of the house. For a recluse, going out is not a natural thing to do. I hoped that this would be a good opportunity for him to improve his situation.

“Don’t think you can get away with this, boys. I’m going to crush you and my damn employees. I may have lost this time, but my stronghold is still intact and I have plenty of money. I’m going to destroy your village soon with more power than I used today!”

He’s talking about the worst of it. Even after all this pain, he’s not feeling lumpy at all. But I had feared this development for a long time. If I endure this time, the game over is just postponed.

“I know where you live, too. You can’t touch me directly, but there are plenty of ways to hunt you down! This time I cut corners and didn’t use the power of luck, but next time I’ll be serious! As long as I have money and luck, I can do anything in this world! What the hell?”

I furrow my brow at the loud voice. I can’t see him, but his face seems to be contorted in madness.

“I’m sorry to interrupt your excitement, my battle is over, but I’m sure you’re still busy.”

“I’m not sure what you’re talking about. It seems that you were able to overcome the [Temptation of the Evil Gods] today…….What do you mean?”

The sound of a cell phone being dropped on the desk and the president’s dismayed voice as he hurriedly operated his keyboard and mouse were heard.

“That went well. I’m sorry, but I have that guy to thank for that.”

Just remembering that man’s grin and what he actually did to me on the ferry and in Hokkaido makes my heart pound, but I’ll let it slide. I had gotten some valuable information from Habata. If Habata hadn’t betrayed him, this victory would have been impossible.

Since then, I have been in contact with Habata many times.

“It would be more profitable for me to be connected to the enemy side, Yoshio-sama. Besides, it’s a great show to see the rich fall into poverty. It is said that one’s misfortune is the taste of honey. Good, I’ll give you as much information as you want. I’ll keep you posted.”

Habata readily agreed to my proposal, and provided me with information that only the players on the Evil God side could have known.

It would be dangerous to fully trust this man, but I decided that his jealousy of Chosokabe was real. It was because of his personality that I could trust him now. What was particularly important in the information I got out of him was what the player could do on the day of the [Temptation of the Evil God].

One, you can give simple orders to all the monsters you have summoned and control them.

On days other than Temptation of the Evil God, you can give orders to monsters, but only in the vicinity of your base, and outside of that, you can only control 2 monsters per your level or 6 monsters if you are level 3. It also depends on the intelligence of the monsters.

During [Temptation of the Evil Gods], you can control monsters to attack the enemy village every 30 minutes. However, there is an upper limit to the number of monsters you can control in one raid, level x 10 monsters.

In the final raid, you can control all the remaining monsters. The [Temptation of the Evil Gods] ends when the village is destroyed, all the monsters participating in the raid are wiped out, or when the enemy can endure for thirty minutes. At that point, it will be impossible to summon any new monsters for 24 hours.

With these three pieces of information, there was only one course of action I could take.

“Why is my home base being attacked? How did they find out? There are so many of them, it’s crazy! How many players are participating in this?”

I guess he’s already forgotten about me. All those shouts of anger and confusion were Chosokabe’s own words. Right now, his base is under an all-out attack from the players on the Lord God’s side. Why is this happening? It’s because I leaked information to the players on the Lord God’s side on the forums.

Habata, who is a smooth talker, found out from the president the location of his base. Normally, he would never reveal information about the base, but it seems that Habata got him to drink at a party, lifted him up, flattered him, and made his mouth slip. I guess he was overconfident that he wouldn’t be attacked by the players on the same side.

It’s true that a player on the Evil side can’t attack a player on the same side but what would happen if they shared that information with the hostile players on the Lord God side and what if that information was posted on the forum?

“I recently found out the home base of a player from the Evil God side that’s been ravaging the Forbidden Forest. It seems that they are planning to attack my village with most of his monsters in the next [Temptation of the Evil Gods]. This is a good time to take out his stronghold.

One of the pieces of information I got from Habata was that Chosokabe had been using his employees to attack several villages at the same time before he fought with me. It seems that a number of villages were destroyed, but there were still villages that managed to endure.

What would those villages that were prepared to be destroyed were not attacked during the [Temptation of the Evil Gods] this time and were able to get through it without any problems? The credibility of the information I’ve provided will increase, and there will be people who will want to check out the other side’s base.

It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for players who were trapped on the edge, like the Dark Elf Village. As a result, it turned out that I was right, and a number of players attacked the stronghold, resulting in this situation. Of course, Chosokabe had left a minimum number of troops for defense. But it seems that his arrogance got the better of him.

He is a man who sees things from a higher perspective and pushes troublesome matters to his subordinates. Because of his character, he let his subordinates protect the base. And those men are no longer with him.

To make matters worse, it seems that he had let his subordinates work too hard and too aggressively, and it became his fault. He made too many players his enemies. The current situation, where several players are attacking him at the same time, is being reported on a forum thread.

“123: Attack, attack, attack! We’re going to avenge the villagers who were killed!”

“124: We’re going to make them pay for what they did to us!”

“125: It’s a miracle we’re getting this deal! Take that down payment on a new car!”

The players on the Lord God’s side, who had been on the defensive, are now venting all their frustrations. By the way, the reason why I was operating the keyboard during the game was because I was writing about the situation here on the board.

“[Temptation of the Evil God] has ended. He can’t summon any more monsters, now is our chance.”

Seeing this, players attacked at once, and other players who had been watching joined in one by one.

“No, no, no, no, no! Yes, yes, a miracle! If I use the miracle of luck, it’ll work like it always has! Like when I made money in the stock market, if only I had some luck, some luck!……Why isn’t the miracle of luck working! Wait, wait! Stop it, stop it, help me, God of luck! Don’t abandon me!”

With that exclamation, the call was cut off. Did the miracle of luck not arrive in time? Or had he succumbed to the reality that luck could not help him? I couldn’t tell because I couldn’t hear anything more from my phone.

When I checked the bulletin board, it was filled with posts screaming with joy at the complete destruction of the enemy’s stronghold. This must have been game over for Chosokabe, and his memory of the game must have been lost.

“Haaaaaaah!”

There was no time to savor the afterglow of victory. I was just relieved. My whole body relaxed and I almost fell from my chair.

A voice of gratitude could be heard from the God of Nature’s player, whose existence I had almost forgotten. His voice, which had been trembling with joy, finally became a sob, but he still repeated a small “thank you”.

Until now, I had fought for myself and been thanked by the villagers, but never by someone in the same position. That made me happy, but also a little itchy and embarrassed.

“You’re welcome, but I couldn’t have done it without your help. Thank you.”

I give him my heartfelt thanks. I could never have gotten through this alone. It was only with the help of him and the other players that we won.

“Why don’t we have a celebration or dinner tomorrow? And I want my phone back.”

I talked to him until he calmed down, too moved for words, and then hung up the computer call.

“All things must be done.”

When I was studying economics and village revitalization to see if I could help the people of my village, I read a book about a great man in Japan and was impressed by his words. It was Uesugi Takayama.

No matter how hard I try, I can’t be as great as him, but it’s up to me to use him as a reference. When I looked at the PC, I saw that the villagers, old and new, were happy to be together. Both elves and dark elves are taking hands and hugging shoulders, sharing their joy. As I watched the scene, I smiled.

“Hmm, what? I got an incoming call at this time.”

I was sharing my joy with the villagers when I received a call from someone. I could have ignored it, but when I saw the name of the caller on the display, I changed my mind and picked it up.

“Hello?”

“You did it! Congratulations, Yoshio.”

“Thank you very much…….God of Fate.”
