Chapter 66.1. Masatoshi Learns The Meaning Of The Original Story


-Masatoshi's POV-

The Iron Spider begins to move. Masatoshi, who knows the story, is astonished that this is impossible. Without noticing Sena, who is casually watching him so as not to get noticed, he recalls the original story.

In the original story, at the start of the novel's story, Duke Kanna Yamato was the most powerful and authority of the nobles. He had power, if anything, that exceeded that of the royal family. With his power, he harassed the protagonist, Shin, in various ways and planned various schemes to become the emperor.

He had that much power. He's the main character's greatest enemy and the story's villain. That was Duke of Kanna.

He had that much power because of what happened 4 years before the original story began. It was this year, and this party was the trigger.

It was a party hosted by the emperor to celebrate every kid's 10 year old debut. More than anything else, the party was held at the imperial castle, where many monsters broke out and killed many people. Moreover, the monsters were only commoners, and no nobles were even injured.

The number of commoners who died was approximately 50,000. Including the injured, the number was more than double that. He thinks the author wanted to make an impact, although it's quite exaggerated. In reality, the number of casualties would be staggering.

The tanks that were supposed to protect the people did not move, and the tank soldiers were the first to flee. The warrior corps that was supposed to protect the people did not move, and the tank soldiers were the first ones to flee. Only the captain, a serious and skilled man who had been the group's core, died before the violence of the scissors mantis' numbers. Along with many adventurers who were not even appropriately armed who were present.

That triggered an outpouring of discontent among the commoners and ordinary adventurers against the royal family. Demonstrations began in various parts of the country, and to suppress them, Duke Kanna started to put them down.

He established the [Susanoo], a unit specializing in the defeat of monsters, to control the confused aristocrats.

[Susanoo] is an elite unit chosen based solely on merit, regardless of age, and at the start of the original story, it's included the student council of the Magic Academy. The unit, which was allowed to operate extrajudicially to defeat monsters, was mainly used to defeat Duke of Kanna's political enemies rather than to exterminate demons.

The nobles couldn't defy the skilled magicians, and gradually became only Duke Kanna's party.

And so, when the royal family lost their power, Duke Kanna was beginning to be at his peak. Duke Kanna's former eldest son, Kanna Shin, entered the Magic Academy and became the hero who expelled Duke Kanna.

The main protagonist's opponents are [Nidhogg], [Duke Kanna], and [Susanoo]. There were many other organizations, but these three were the most powerful enemies.

The protagonist wins over the royal family, which barely retains their power, and other nobles, and defeats his father, Duke Kanna. It was a burning development and a classic royal road story.

That is why it's strange for the tanks to move here. Duke Kanna had his hand around and taken in a battalion commander to lead the tank soldiers, who should have stopped the engines altogether.

When the scissors mantis appeared, the engine couldn't get activated. The battalion commanders should have fled, and the other tank soldiers should have given up on activating it and fought outside and scattered fleetingly.

"This is the iron spider battalion belonging to the Imperial Guard. We have confirmed that a swarm of monsters has occurred. We'll eliminate them immediately, but please evacuate just in case. Please don't panic, and make a fuss, but move calmly."

Masatoshi heard a calm voice from the tank's speaker, and the tank gun was firing. They fired missiles and fought off the hordes of scissors mantis and others.

The warrior group is strange. They were supposed to be unmotivated and fearful of the sheer number of the scissors mantis. They should have fled first. The captain should have died in a solitary battle, and the warrior group was supposed to get destroyed in the fight. That was also because Duke Kanna had been working around the edges and reducing the number of guards.

However, the warriors weren't apathetic. They were full of fighting spirit, and magical skills. Several [Fireball] they activated were all the same size, which inferred a high skill level.

The small number was probably the result of Duke of Kanna's handiwork, but other than that, the story was completely different from the story Masatoshi knew.

He's confused about why that thing happened. Then he realized. It was because of the reincarnated Yamiyo. His existence is changing the story.

Because of the absence of Yamiyo, who was originally his only daughter, Ouga, the head of the warrior clan, had become unmotivated, his power had narrowed, and because of his awareness, the warriors had also become unmotivated, and corruption had begun to spread. He remembers reading in the backstory that many people had joined through connections, and the highly skilled warriors had been reduced to the point they aren't even in the story.

But now it is different. As a reincarnated person, Yamiyo doesn't go on a killing spree as a child and isn't thrown to her family branch for that reason. As a result, Ouga hasn't lost his motivation, nor has he narrowed his power.

The warriors have always existed, which have always been of good quality and sounded with vigor and strength.

"I see. I'm surprised that the Duke of Kanna's plot gets destroyed this way."

Masatoshi shuddered, having heard of the butterfly effect, where a butterfly flaps its wings, and a hurricane occurs, and that is exactly what happened.

"Masatoshi-san, look at this! I've never seen an iron spider attack like that before!"

He regained his composure at Sena's excited voice as she grabbed his arm. Masatoshi looked at Sena's face to see if he had muttered something bad, but was relieved that she was innocently giggling and wasn't listening to him.

"Sena-san, let's evacuate. I think it's dangerous here."

Shin rebukes the excited Sena and grabs her hand. He nodded in agreement, feeling jealous that he was the protagonist for being able to grab a girl's hand like that so smoothly.

The event was an avalanche of scissors mantis attacking the commoners without any interference from tanks or warriors.

The story seems different now, but the main thrust of the original story will remain the same.

In the story ahead, Shin and Sena will get attacked by the scissors mantis, and Shin showed a glimpse of his [Void] element and fought them off. Then Sena falls in love with Shin, who saves her.

Masatoshi was planning to change that. When the scissors mantis attacked her, he would quickly defeat it himself. For this reason, he secretly wears combat innerwear under his clothes, and he wears a magic bracelet as an activator of magic too. Although the equipment was far weaker than the Magic Armor, he still had confidence that he could easily defeat the scissors mantis. That's how much effort he had put in.

That Sena's in love with him. He tried to hold back his smile and followed her and the others to take shelter.
