Well, I finished dealing with that, I’m a little bit sure that she will find out about me but there’s no way that she’ll tell other people.

Finally, I get to relax.

…………

Im bored

I want allies

I need them

I don’t want them anymore

Maybe I’ll just gain favor in my stepdad’s kingdom

Best way to forcefully gain reputation is to stop an invasion

And I have the perfect idea

I’ll forcefully make monsters come here and show off the knowledge I possess, we don’t have a lot of manpower so 500 orcs will do.

This is where my reading of books come in handy, Orcs have a strong sense of smell, and they’re attracted to large amounts of blood.

There are two problems to this, 500 is not a small amount and where will I get blood from?

It’s not like I have a large amount of blood

Our army is small but the territory my father owns is quite a large one

All I need to do is somehow persuade him to make a meat festival

“Father”.

“Yes, Edward, haven’t seen you in a while, what do you want”.

“The large influx of meat should be celebrated since our territory has been in a shortage of food so shouldn’t we have a festival? It could help the morale of people and help the people view you as a kind and caring ruler”.

I would know because I increased the productivity.

“Hmm, why not, it helps me anyways and there are few downsides”.

Exactly and you only expect the good in people, that’s why you’re a terrible ruler

Of course you won’t know about orcs, they rarely come to human territories because there is a lack of good protein.

But I read books

And

You break easily

All I have to do is wait

Wait for the festival to start

And all hell will break loose

I’ll be the hero of this story and no one will ever get in my way

“My ruler, that’s all I have to say, I would like to excuse myself”.

“Go”

Ahahaha

This is going well

Too smoothly

I’m getting worried

That some other power might interfere

My siblings

I made sure that the others didn’t get to read in the library

But there’s a chance they might’ve heard about it

*I had sat on my desk*

And that’s what I’m worried about

I’ll just make up an excuse

Hmm

I’ll wait a couple days for it to happen

What to do to pass the time

Why not just fast forward it?

Uh what was the spell again?

Kronos

Fast forward 3 days

*Space around me warped and was transported further in time*

Phew

That took more than I expected

I haven’t ate in three days

I’m getting hungry

The festival’s starting anyways and it’ll take quite a while for the orcs to invade

Let’s enjoy the festival first

Isn’t it fun?

There are so many people here

Too bad some of them are going to die

They all look so happy

But sacrifices shall be made for me to be called a hero

I’ll try to limit the number of deaths to a few

*The walls start to crumble*

Aha

The orcs have come

*The orcs had green skin and looked like old fat men*

“ALL TROOPS EMERGENCY COME TO THE NORTH ORCS HAVE COME NEUTRALIZE THE TARGETS!”

The soldiers are trying to stop them, half of them will drop and they’ll soon report to the king.

“SOLDIERS TRY YOUR BEST TO DELAY THEM”

“MESSENGER REPORT TO THE KING, HE’LL KNOW WHAT TO DO”

War

Bloodshed

Death and despair

We’re losing so badly

Red

Red

Red everywhere

I haven’t seen this is so long

A large boost of mana

“SOLDIERS FALL BACK”

The king will be troubled

“I-I don’t know what to do, I must save the people, it’s impossible we can’t do it, I need to take my children and run away”.

This is where I come in to help

But I need it to be more dramatic

I need a dramatic entrance

“It’s happening to three sections of the territory, but our population will lower so much and there could be chances of more orcs appearing”.

“WHAT THE HELL CAN I EVEN DO”

Finally he’s stressed he has no options left

I’m the last option

“Hello father I think I can help”.
