《True Assassin of Round Table》Result and Next Movement ( 4 )
Advertisement
The remaining Floor Guardians and Esmeralda were currently in the meeting room and sitting in front of a semicircular table.
They were waiting for Nash and Lancelot.
"Hmmm ... they are late," Esmeralda said, tapping her finger on the table.
Everyone present seemed to be wearing their casual clothes except Merlin. Arthur wore a blue shirt with white trousers, Gawain wore a dark green shirt and maroon pants, while Esmeralda wore a blue dress that emphasized her assets.
* Knock. *
"Finally they come."
After a knock, Nash and Lancelot entered the room and greeted everyone. Lancelot has also removed his armor, as well as Nash who looks more casual with his black shirt and pants.
"You are 14 minutes and 37 seconds late."
Nash smiled because Esmeralda acted as usual.
"Forgive us, Esmeralda-sama," Lancelot said.
"It's okay, you two sit down."
After everyone sat in their respective places, Esmeralda then said.
"Since everyone except Sir Agravain who according to Sir Nash has some business to explain later, let's just start the meeting, you will give a report on each floor starting with Arthur."
"Yes, my queen."
Arthur then stood in front of everyone and explained about the financial statements in Camelot, how much gold was stored in the treasure room at this time and all the activities of the maid NPCs in charge of cleaning.
Next, it was Lancelot's turn to report as lethargically as usual. Well, in general there is nothing different from Arthur's report.
After that, it was Gawain's turn, he reported on the management of the park, and the condition of the Arena contained in the Justice Floor.
Then it was Merlin's turn to report on the condition of the Monsters confined on the Judgment Floor, she also conveyed how much it would cost to take care of the monsters.
That, of course, caused a debate between her and Arthur. The debate lasted long enough that Esmeralda had to stop it immediately.
Nash who saw that once again thought,
'How can the relationship between Arthur and Merlin be so bad? Do they have personal problems or something, huh? '
Nash couldn't help but worry, even though this was a trivial matter, Nash knew that disputes like this would become big with time. And finally, both Merlin and Arthur will instead fight each other and cause betrayal from one side.
However, if between Arthur and Merlin there is a betrayer later, then Nash believes that the person is Merlin. That's because, it makes no sense Arthur betrayed the person who created it, namely Esmeralda.
"Then it's your turn, Sir Nash."
" Okay "
Nash then stood up and stepped forward, then pulled a wooden board to his side so everyone could see what he wanted to say.
Nash then put a world map on a wooden board that made everyone widen their eyes.
"Sir Nash, this?" Esmeralda was quite surprised.
"Yup, this is the world map that I got from my investigation."
The map posted by Nash on the board was drawn on a kind of leather parchment. And a lot of graffiti on it, which seems to be done by Nash himself.
"As expected of Nash-sama, in just a few hours, you have obtained very important information like this."

Said Merlin with a sweet smile on her face, hernature was inversely proportional to when she was talking to Arthur before.
"In that case, I will explain our current location."
Nash then pointed to an area that had been marked by a red dot at the western end of the Continent.
"This is where Camelot is."
Everyone paid attention to the place pointed by Nash. They can find out that Camelot is currently in the ranks of the Great Mountains and Forests or what is written there as Abellion Hills.
"Abellion Hills is where I and Agravain investigate and get a variety of valuable information including maps of this world.
"Is there a human settlement in it?" Arthur asked with a serious face.
"No, Abellion Hills is a lawless area where Demi-humans live."
Nash then explained about Abellion Hills to everyone, he explained everything that Vijar and Muar told him.
He said that Abellion Hills was a lawless area inhabited by dozens of demi-human races. They fight continuously for the sake of fighting over the territory there.
"Then why does Sir Agravain have business there?"
"Well, in that case, I want to make Abellion Hills a territory for the Holy Kingdom of Camelot in the future."
Hearing Nash's words all people widened their eyes, including Esmeralda whose expression had turned serious.
"Sir Nash, can you explain the purpose of what you just said?"
"Of course, after all it was my intention from the start."
Nash then explained his plan in detail to everyone. How he planned to dominate the entire Abellion Hills by using the Zoastia race as his tool. He explained that this plan would not be too detrimental to Camelot because what Camelot needed to succeed in this plan would only send enough resources to Zoastia.
While those who will do work like murder and such. That keeps ' Camelot's hands' clean while at the same time getting territory that can be used to build a country.
Nash also said that he wanted to make Demi-humans in Abellion Hills the people of Camelot going forward.
"Sorry if I interrupted your words, Nash-sama. But I think there will be discrimination if the Demi-human Race coexists with humans, it will actually endanger Camelot going forward."
But before Nash could respond, Merlin's voice was heard.
"What do you mean by that Sir Arthur? Aren't you very racist here? What's wrong with humanity and Demi-humans living side by side?"
"That's not what I want to try to say, Ms. Merlin."
"Then what? You were acting like a saint from the beginning, didn't you realize that your attitude did not reflect the attitude of a knight?"
Arthur wanted to return to respond to Merlin's words, but a terrible aura emanated from Nash who was in front of them all.
Makes everyone except Esmeralda unable to speak a word. In fact, NPCs as strong as Arthur were surprised when he felt the pressure given by Nash.
"Can the two of you not get rid of your personal matters first? This is a meeting that determines the future of Camelot, can't you appreciate it, huh? Answer me!"
Nash's tone of speech was very cold, it was mainly directed at Merlin and Arthur.

" Answer me! "
However, under pressure from Nash, Merlin and Arthur could only nod in pain, before Nash finally pulled back his Aura. He then looked into the Esmeralda's Emerald Eyes.
Esmeralda understood what Nash's gaze meant. Esmeralda then stood up and said.
"Because the atmosphere made it impossible to have a good discussion, I declare this meeting postponed."
Esmeralda's words made all Floor Guardians can only bow, they were ashamed of their mistakes that their queen had to postpone an important meeting because of their own actions.
"After you have cooled your heads and promised me that events like this will not be repeated, there will be no more meetings to discuss Camelot' Future. And in that time period, Sir Nash will carry out his plans and will not provide information or data on the progress of his plans to you are. That is the Punishment I will give to all of you. So I hope you can reflect and realize your mistakes, if you cannot do that, then don't expect you to contribute to Camelot's progress going forward. Do you understand !? "
The entire floor guard said in a sad tone, but none of them apologized to Esmeralda, because as Esmeralda said, they had to realize their mistakes before they deserved to be forgiven by their queen.
"" Yes, My Queen. ""
"Then all of you can come back."
After Esmeralda said that, the Floor Guardians bowed to Esmeralda and Nash before they left the meeting room.
The punishment Esmeralda gave might not sound like anything, but for Floor Guardians whose loyalty had been arranged in the highest form to Esmeralda and Camelot, it was the hardest punishment they could think of.
Being useless at all is the most sickening thing to anyone, let alone the Floor Guardians.
After that, only Nash and Esmeralda were left in the conference room. Nash then began to tidy up his belongings, he folded the world map he had shown to everyone before, and put it back in his bag.
"As expected of you, Esmeralda-san. You can decide such a heavy sentence for them in a very short time."
"Well, it just crossed my mind."
"Hahaha, your Queen Mode is indeed incomparable huh."
"Actually it's quite tiring to act like this every day you know."
Nash just smiled at Esmeralda's complaint. After finishing packing all his belongings, Nash then prepared to leave the meeting room, but before he could get out his hand was pulled by Esmeralda.
"Don't go yet, Nash. How about you confide in your sister a little ..."
"Huh? Confide?"
Nash was confused, while Esmeralda suddenly sat down on the floor and pulled Nash's head to her thigh. Nash just obeyed and slept in the lap of Esmeralda.
Nash could see assets from Esmeralda clearly from below. Well, of course Nash is not an impotent, he is a normal man who still has a passion for women.
However, for some reason, there was no special feeling when he saw Esmeralda's assets. In fact, if Esmeralda was naked in front of him right now, Nash would probably only say flatly that it would not be good if a woman was naked in front of a man. Maybe it's because, he already considered Esmeralda as his own sister.
Nash was an only child, so he never felt how to have an older sister.
Esmeralda stroked Nash's hair gently.
"Don't you feel hopeless, Nash?"
"What do you mean, Esmeralda-san?"
"Well you know ... it's about your mother."
At the beginning Nash hesitated and fell silent when he heard Esmeralda's words, the atmosphere became quiet, he opened his mouth.
" I do not know. "
Hearing Nash's answer, Esmeralda made a confused expression. Nash then continued his words in a very soft tone, very different from his usual self.
"I ... don't know why I'm not sad, is it because I was no longer a human when I was transferred to this world ? ... can I no longer feel a human's feelings?"
Esmeralda just kept quiet and continued stroking Nash's hair.
"I don't understand why I don't feel lost or discouraged when I think that my mother is sick and alone in a place I can't reach."
"Tell me, Esmeralda-san, do you think I have changed?"
Hearing Nash's words, Esmeralda smiled and said.
"Nash ..."
Esmeralda then answered all the questions that were stuck in Nash's heart. Every question that initially could not come out of his mind, Nash revealed to Esmeralda.
They continued to talk until the night was getting late. Realizing that it was time to return, Nash then woke up from his sleeping position.
"It's too late, I have to prepare for my departure"
That's right, Nash planned to travel soon, but not tomorrow, he planned to leave in 3 days after receiving a report from Agravain.
"What !? You just returned, do you want to leave tomorrow?"
"Of course not, I will leave in 3 days after finishing business here."
"Is that so? Then why do you want to prepare for your departure now."
"That's because I need to prepare a thorough division of duties for all Camelot residents, because you told the Floor Guardians not to get involved with my plans, I have to prepare them myself, plus Agravain isn't here now, so I have to prepare everything myself."
Hearing Nash's words, Esmeralda was sweating.
"E-eh, I'm sorry."
"No, you don't need to apologize, after all your decision is the best money, because I'm a little worried about the relationship between Merlin and Arthur. I wonder, did you actually enter some sort of arrangement in their Character Settings that made them so hostile?"
Hearing Nash's words, Esmeralda held her chin and made a thoughtful expression.
"Hmmm ... not as I recall."
"I see ... if that's the case, I'll return to my room."
Nash then turned away, however, before he stepped and left, Esmeralda's voice stopped.
"Ah! By the way, where are you going next?"
Nash then stopped and looked back for a moment, and said.
"At first I wanted to go to the Roble Holy Kingdom in the Southwest, but ... after I thought, right now I don't have any destination there, so I decided to investigate a place that was quite interesting to me."
"A place that interests you?"
Nash then nodded and said while smiling.
"Yup, a place in the south of the continent called ...
... Eryuentiu (Flying City) "

Shadows in the Dawn Mist
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - Winner November 2020 When a young woman is lured back to her homeland for the opportunity of a life time, she must face old fears. But never would she think that facing up to her past would change everything. Is History written by the victors, or by someone or something else...? *** I started writing this a few years ago and eventually fell out of love with it. I never finished it and my newer books are being written in different writing style, and genre with a more planned process. I decided to revisit it for the writathon and found that it wasn't as hopeless as I'd come to think. Hopefully, I've improved as a writer since them so the consistency may vary. Its been good to revisit and analyse my writing which I feel used to have some clunky and obvious dialogue which I'm trying to fix. This will always be my first novel and I hope, with a little exposure, I may come to like it again. Thanks for reading!
