The Strongest Dull Prince’s Secret Battle for the Throne

Chapter 299: Urgent Report

The council members including Torosin left the room to control the situation.

Only the SS-rank adventurers and Clyde remained in the meeting room.

If you still lose after this then I dont know what to do okay?

Dont worry. There was originally a lot of dissatisfaction and opposition to how the Chief runs things. No one will vote for him this time.

Thats reassuring. It was worth the effort to collect all SS-rank adventurers.

You saved me. It seems that I have troubled everyone huh.

Exactly. There wont be next time okay? Clyde.

I know.

Clyde nods to Jack.

Clyde is the person most likely to win the election. There should be a lot of people who will give up this election because of him. Thats how strong Clydes influence is.

As a former adventurer, he knows what its like on the field, and even after joining the council his priority is still to those adventurers.

One could say that the chief position is suitable for him.

Will you change the members of the council?

There wont be much change. They are the head of their respective department. I will have them continue their work as council members.

Even though they were wagging their tails to Torosin?

Thats also a valid move. They did what they could while doing their best to protect their subordinates. Torosin has been transferring people out left and right after all.

Well, if you are fine with it.

Linares muttered so and concluded the topic.

His face is saying that doesnt like such a development but if it is what Clyde decided then he will not say anything extra about it.

Clyde. Sorry but Im getting thirsty here.

I will immediately prepare something. Elder Egor.

If its over then Im going back.

Ahh, thank you. Noname. I never thought that you would give Silver a hand.

I was only betting on the winning side. Theres no need to thank me.

Not at all! Your help is much appreciated! Thank you very much! Noname-san!

I have done nothing that warrants your gratitude. Miss Finne.

But you did throw us a lifeboat, didnt you! Thanks to you, Silver-sama was able to smoothly proceed with the negotiation!

ThatsI only want to quickly conclude the negotiation.

Great. They are getting along.

To be able to make Noname talk to her so much with only a few days. As expected of Finne.

While I was impressed with Finnes feat, Clyde suggested something to me.

Silver. When I become the chief, I am thinking about establishing a certain rule.

A certain rule? What is it?

Its a rule that involves all SS-rank adventurers. In case that all SS-rank adventurers agree, the council can be dissolved. I think that such a rule is necessary to prevent something troublesome like this from happening again.

I wont stop you if you want to make that a rule but it wont have much meaning you know?

I know. The only one who can gather all SS-rank adventurers that are scattered all over the continent is you alone. This rule would be a powerful tool with your ability but without you, it cant do much. However, with such a rule in place, it will make the council think twice before pulling something like this again.

Do whatever you want. With or without that rule, SS-rank adventurers will be the same as always. We will live as we pleased and take down anyone who gets in our way. Thats it.

Clyde bitterly smiled in response.

Clyde who has traveled the continent as an S-rank adventurer was subjected to the whimsical nature of the SS-rank adventurers so he has a good understanding of us.

Of course, SS-rank adventurers rarely cooperate with each other so he must understand that this time is a special case.

Thats why he is proposing this rule.

It will serve to remind future councils that this might happen to them too.

Thats quite thorough of him.

Clyde, the tea still isnt ready yet?

Im sorry. I will get to it now.

Elder Egor. You should stop having the Deputy Guild Chief brew the tea for you okay.

Im thirsty. And he used to brew the tea for me you know? When he was still a novice that is.

When the Deputy Guild Chief was still a novice? Just how long ago was that?..seriously, you really have a strange sense of time.

Never mind that, wheres my tea, My TEA.

Wine for me please.

Im going home.

Seriously, how can they be so selfish?

Compared to these guys, I am still the one who has common sense after all.

Thinking so, I started preparing a transfer gate for each of them.

However, I was immediately disrupted.

Suddenly, the door swung open.

Deputy Guild Chief!! Its an emergency!

What? Did the chief do something?

No, the turmoil outside is still ongoing butwe just received information that a giant monster has appeared in the Sokal empires western region!

The person who entered the meeting room was a young woman.

They must have been contacted by remote communication.

Even in this turmoil, she is still seriously doing her job huh.

Still, she must have been quite panicked as Clyde is the only one who reflected in her eyes right now.

We were told that Sokal has dispatched their army to intercept the monster. They are mobilizing from Karelia, the largest city in their western region. The adventurers in the area are inadequate to handle the monster, every branch in the Sokal empire is requesting us to dispatch SS-rank adventurers, sir!

A giant monster appearing inside Sokal empire huh. We need more information.

Theres no need, right? With everyone here.

Saying so, I open the transfer gate to Karelia.

I alone should be enough.

Dont say that, Noname. I was bored sitting here already.

Me too. Its okay, I will let you have the finishing blow.

They each have their reason.

However, all SS-rank adventurers stood up.

Perhaps she finally noticed the identity of the people gathered here, the young womans body tremble.

T, they are all..here

By my order as the Deputy Guild Chief, all SS-rank adventurers are allowed to participate in this quest. Still, since all five of you will be going, do not level the terrain okay?

That will depend on the monster.

I cant say Im good at that.

This old body isnt good at it either.

Me too.

We will do our best to avoid that. But I will be the one who takes the finishing blow.

.

Clyde turned his uneasy gaze toward us.

Meanwhile, Finne quietly lowered her head.

Have a safe trip, everyone.

While lightly raising my hand to Finne say goodbye to Finne, we entered the transfer gate.
