Chapter 42

The residents freaked out.

“A-Are you suggesting a rebellion?”

“A rebellion? It is the lord who is causing the rebellion! We are the people of Earl Steim. We’ll go against the demons who joined hands to go against Earl Steim’s will!”

The residents were reminded that they had justification to go against the lord. Their morale started rising.

“Okay! I will follow Khan!”

“It is impossible to drive out the lord with our strength, but with our indignation, we will let the world know that something is wrong in Winston. Then Earl Steim will eventually hear the news about Winston.”

“We have to fight for Grid, who is locked up because of us.”

“I am going to fight!”

The residents decided to change Winston’s fate with their own strength!

Khan opened the door of the warehouse and checked it. The warehouse was full of battle gear, the very same items that Grid produced while practicing for the game. The performance wasn’t excellent due to the limitations of the materials, but they were better than farming equipment.

“Ohh!”

The residents were excited as they armed themselves under Khan’s command.

“Head towards the Mero Company right now!”

“Yes! Grab Valmont!”

Khan restrained them. “If we attack the Mero Company, the news of our uprising will be delivered quickly to the lord and then the castle will be heavily defended.”

“Then, we should go to the castle first?”

“Correct. We must enter the castle before news of our rebellion is passed onto the lord. If the lord is taken as a hostage, the soldiers won’t be able to move and we can easily dismiss the Mero Company!”

A man came forward and said, “The architect who designed the castle is my great-grandfather. So I have a blueprint of the castle in my home. We can grasp the secret passages through the blueprint, allowing us to easily infiltrate the castle.”

“Ohh!”

They saw hope. The residents weren’t helpless. They were confident they could drive out the lord and Mero Company. But it only lasted for a moment.

Jaengurang!

The windows of the blacksmith’s second floor were shattered and soldiers armed with bows entered.

“Drop your weapons if you don’t want to die!”

The smithy’s second floor was occupied by dozens of archers in an instant, all aiming their bows at the residents on the first floor. The residents were terrified as Valmont entered the smithy.
