Chapter 211
Episode 211
: Princess!
It was a word that made my heart race just by hearing it. I didn’t know how the East Continent was going, but I could smell an incident involving high-ranking people.
However, at the woman’s next words, X’s face quickly darkened.
“…yes?”
“The only one we can trust is Mr. X.”
“No, wait a minute. “Eat your head first.”
Despite X’s dissuasion, the woman did not even think about raising her head.
On the one hand, I could understand that kind of attitude.
This is not a request that anyone would accept unless they are crazy enough!
‘In other words, you want to become a traitor, right?’
Please help the princess and destroy the empire!
It was already X who had to rebel against the Kingdom of Arba. But that wasn’t enough, so he helped the princess, the lowest ranked princess, to become the emperor of the Eastern Continent.
X sighed inwardly.
‘It’s a mountain beyond a mountain.’
But history is written by the hands of the victors.
If you help the princess and succeed in the rebellion, wouldn’t you be able to make a big mark on the Eastern Continent?
As I thought about that, a dark feeling began to well up in my heart. To do that, collecting information should come first.
X began the conversation in earnest.
“My name is Seoji. As you can see, the princess is being attended to in an invisible place. “I trust you, X, and I will tell you the current situation of our Fire Empire.”
Woe Empire!
It is a country that unified the Eastern Continent after a long war. With the war gone, the people had enough to live on, but
the problem was always the superiors. In the case of the Hua Empire, the situation was so severe that the emperor himself was insane.
X, who had been listening quietly, opened his mouth in astonishment.
“No, let alone the fact that your wife is 20 and you have 30 children. “If you’ve given birth to that many people, you should be held accountable, but you’re actually instigating a fight?”
A war of succession!
From what I’ve heard, it wasn’t at the level of a fight. Even if they were from different ships, they would brutally kill their brothers and sisters!
Seo Ji-ha answered with a gloomy expression.
“The smell of blood began to be in the air for a moment before everyone began to question His Majesty’s decision. “Of course, the purge started from the lowest rank.”
It is said that the princess whom Seo Ji-ha served was 16 years old, making her 11th in rank.
The fact that such a princess was at the bottom of the hierarchy… meant that nearly ten princes and princesses had been purged!
X’s expression became serious.
“This is not normal.”
After listening to the story, I felt like I knew why they were planning a rebellion.
In short, the emperor was the source of all evil.
Because X had experienced it, he knew the insides of trash people well.
‘The struggle will continue until one person survives.’
There was no way for a writer who thought of life, and even the life of his children, as a game, to quietly pass on the throne of emperor.
Indeed, the princess seemed to have chosen the best method.
“So the princess is safe now?”
“Actually, I don’t know. I’m going crazy with worry. However, I want to protect the work that the princess has entrusted to me, even if it means risking my life.”
There was a solemn aura around Seo Ji-ha’s eyes. If you refuse the request, it feels like you will bite your tongue on the spot.
Anyway, there was something I was curious about.
“How did you meet that bastard, the Gourmet King?”
“He saved the princess’s life once.”
“Oh my.”
The Gourmet King, who currently has no contact with anyone, saved the princess’s life… Various speculations come to mind.
But one thing is certain: the Gourmet King made sure that his successor had no choice but to ask about this incident!
‘I don’t know what the intention is, though.’
X made a decision.
“great. “I will help the princess.”
I will help the lowest-ranking princess defeat the imperial family of the Fire Empire!
As the heir and greedy X, he simply could not refuse.
First of all, it is an incident related to the king of gourmets, the practice of encouraging good and punishing evil, and even the possibility of having a big place in the Eastern Continent!
‘As long as you succeed, it’s just a fateful life.’
Seo Ji-ha, unaware of those insidious thoughts, shed tears.
“Thank you so much for your help. On behalf of the princess, I will repay this favor at any cost. In that case, as soon as possible, go to the Eastern Continent where the princess is….”
Tilorin!
A quiet notification rang.
《To the East Continent!》
The unknown continent, the East Continent.
Finding a route to get there is no easy task. Only through thorough preparation and through a painful voyage will we be able to reach the East Continent. Are you truly qualified to set foot on the Eastern Continent?
Conditions: Discovery of the East Continent
Difficulty: A+
Reward: 15000 points of fame Title Welcome to the East Continent
The quest has begun!
The level of difficulty was an A+ level, but it was understandable. Because discovering the East Continent would be like changing the current history of the Arba Continent.
X shrugged his shoulders.
‘Is the quest starting with eating raw food?’
Even on the Arba Continent, it is difficult to find information about the East Continent.
Finding a route to the East Continent would be even more difficult and close to impossible.
But isn’t there someone here who has experience crossing the sea?
But for some reason, the atmosphere feels cold. Seo Ji-ha, whose face was white, struggled to speak.
“…How did I get here?”
“A village kid found you washed up on the beach… Are you sure you don’t remember the voyage from the East Continent to Arba Continent?”
“I remember the shipwreck, but after that…”
Her answer made me sigh. Still, I thought it would be easy to start, but I ended up starting from scratch.
According to Seo Ji-ha, the princess’s life is in danger at every moment.
“Of course, you need to manage your network properly.”
However, being impatient can ruin things. Moreover, X knew someone who was second to none when it came to sailing and adventure.
I immediately whispered to the person I trusted.
*
Xernis!
Asus has whetted his appetite.
“It’s a city that becomes more appealing the more you look at it.”
Crazy explorer Asus’ appeal was objectively not good news.
Relics of the past that never cease no matter how much you move forward, and monsters that retain their original appearance!
Knockknock Asus touched the frozen monster with his finger.
‘It’s looking good right now, but the more we go, the more the numbers increase. If you think it wakes up at one time every day….’
To reclaim the territory of the past, you must defeat the frozen monster!
Finding the right line didn’t seem like it would be a pain in the ass. However, the Lord of Xernis came up with an incredibly simple solution.
Asus, who was smoothing his chin, nodded.
“Well, users can’t use the four limbs when it comes to new monsters.”
I will take advantage of the users!
X had said that he would use users to deal with the monsters that would awaken.
While saving Xernis’ labor, we were able to deal with monsters and collect various taxes, including lodging and food, from users who were tired of hunting.
“I have to live like that too.”
Lately, I feel like I’m only doing good things for others.
It’s a shame, but since when did you become a person who weighs the pros and cons?
Asus and Explorer were driven by interest, and they were fascinated by the play displayed by X.
“Rumors are slowly spreading to nearby villages?”
“There were users wandering around the tunnel.”
“Actually, I talked to a stranger yesterday too!”
Xernis was also showing signs of radiating his presence to the world.
The first to notice will be the NPCs who own Fate World, but information will spread quickly to users as well.
Asus said with a smile next to Zawl.
“The tax party that the greedy lord wants has begun.”
“What is a tax party? “Excessive greed leads to anger.”
“what? “Even the lord is not a nobleman.”
A whisper arrived from X!
The only time X whispered first was when there was a request.
Actually, there were a lot of things I wanted to ask Asus too. Because the impact of the Fate highlight shown by X was so great.
“!”
However, this request was large enough to make me forget that curiosity.
And it piqued the interest of the crazy explorer to the fullest. The corners of Asus’ mouth went up as much as possible.
“Good, it’s my first adventure in a while.”

Sailing to the Eastern Continent!
Sailing has always been a gold-eating monster. The ships alone boasted a price of at least tens of thousands of gold or as many as hundreds of thousands of gold. There was no need to mention food or additional consumables.
‘It was worth earning money like a dog.’
Even when tears come to your eyes, you must write like a monk.
In particular, I planned to take care of Explorer, with whom I had a business relationship and an alliance, so that I would not be offended.
Asus said that at least 15 days would be needed.
‘Well, I guess I can finish it in 15 days, right?’
Let’s go straight to Liglian.
Before stopping by the East Continent, X planned to learn the gourmet king’s recipe from Ligrien.
An extravagant recipe made with the legendary animal phoenix as the main ingredient!
So, X decided to beat Phoenix in 15 days.
It was a goal that others would be shocked to hear, but X was full of confidence.
On the other hand, I also felt curious.
“Hmm, do you think you can withstand the javelin?”
X looks at the noble Phoenix like a chicken!
A man and a woman were following behind X. Needless to say, the women of Dallas and the East Continent were there.
Now that he had met X, whom he had been looking for so desperately, Seojiha had nothing better to do.
“I will protect X’s back!”
Seo Ji-ha, who was in a position to serve the princess in the shadows, seemed to have deep knowledge of martial arts.
X was able to sense the flow of energy she was emitting, as she was said to recite Pungwol every three years.
‘It’s a very sharp use of energy.’
Her fist felt like a sharp metal object.
New skills from the East Continent!
It was natural to be interested. Using fists as weapons seemed to have an excellent synergistic effect when combined with the fighting skills of the strong.
“If you have time later, please teach me properly.”
“It’s not a good idea, but I’ll do my best to let you know.”
Dallas, unable to feel energy, tilted his head.
‘Are you telling me how to make a fist?’
Dallas had a quest to complete, but he didn’t want to miss out on this adventure because of the quest.
Plus, there was a suggestion from X.
‘An excellent priest is always a great help.’
Especially in small-scale battles, the priest’s role becomes more important.
Even if a small amount of recovery magic is added to avoid a near-death situation, the situation of the war can change from time to time.
From the moment X made his decision, he had the battle on the Eastern Continent in mind.
According to Seo Ji-ha’s words, the princess’s troops were less than 500. There are about 30 people with special skills like Seo Ji-ha.
Even if he and the Explorer were added together, he was clearly outnumbered. The situation is desperate for a reliable power source like Asus.
Nevertheless, I was confident that I would win, but I was not allowed to be overconfident.
‘Overwhelming victory with minimal damage.’
And get maximum rewards!
That was the battle X pursued.
As I move my head forward, I slowly hear a loud noise. Whenever I hear sesame salt pouring out, it’s something I really hate to hear.
Asus said, scratching his head.
“X, isn’t this Lablina?”
What is there to do in a resort like this? Dallas and Seo Ji-ha give curious looks.
Leaving the two behind,
“Whether I like it or not, I have to catch the key to a hidden place.”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
