--- The Throne Room---
Kradr: I brought everyone involved in the half-goblins and giants and themselves. Kobshobf and Kofab are located here.
Faceless>Chlori: Aren't their names Kobsh and Fab?
Kradr: You probably didn't know, but these are their full names. Shortened from Cobshobf is Cobsh or Shobf. Kofab has a Fab.
Faceless>Chlori: I see. And now report on your achievements.
Fab: I brought the giants.
Kobsh: I brought the half-goblins.
Faceless>Chlori: But didn't I tell Rostolia and Belias to do it?
Kobsh: She handed this assignment over to me, as we were already on our way. There are two of us, so we split up according to the tasks. It seemed to us that it would be faster this way.
Faceless>Chlori: Okay, it came out faster. So, now let's give a short demonstration of what you have brought, in brief.
Fab: All giants are fallen. The strongest of them is still the wisest and the oldest.
Kobsh: All half-goblins are the same in abilities and pose a threat with their instability. Also, everyone has problems in the form of a sharp change in mood and behavior.
Faceless>Chlori: So, take the half-goblins to the seamstresses, and then to the dungeon. I'll take care of the giants now.
Cobsh: Then I'm off, right? Have I done everything?
Faceless>Chlori: Yes, as soon as you finish this assignment, you will be free.
"Kobsh led the half-goblins, clinking the chain in his hand."
Faceless>Chlori: And so, let's introduce ourselves to each other. I'm Faceless. I speak only through someone, because I can't physically speak. Your temporary observer is Fab.
Fab: Now, I'll explain for everyone. It is better not to anger our ruler and be lenient with him... Mr. Faceless, all the giants present have renounced their name and lost it.
Faceless>Chlori: So all those who lost their pride came here?
Fab: Yes, that's right.
Faceless>Chlori: Then I'll go visit them sometime. So, a question for everyone. Have you completely lost your pride and are ready to accept any version of your fate?
???: Yes, that's right.
Faceless>Chlori: Apparently you're the oldest. Since that's the case, are you ready to do whatever you're told? Are you all ready to go through everything that a Calm madman will do to you?
???: Yes, we are ready for anything.
Faceless>Chlorine: In that case, I ask you to go to the Calm Madman. Fab, show them in.
Fab: I'm listening.
Faceless: Chlori, I'm going to think, and you can rest.
Chlori: Okay, have a good time.
Faceless: Thank you.
"Chlori came out of the throne room. And Rostolia came in after her."
Rostolia: Sir, I'm sorry to bother you, but there is some problem.
"The Faceless One turned and nodded."
Rostolya: As you remember, Hin went to bed. When I came to keep an eye on him, I went through all the available rooms, but he was nowhere to be found. Then, I started looking through the remaining rooms. Hin is in the same bed with Belias. I do not know what to do.
"The faceless one came up to Rostolya and took her hand."
Faceless: If you think that something is wrong, then do as you see fit. And if not, then leave it as it is.
Rostolia: Well, thank you.
Faceless: Now leave me alone with myself. When he wakes up, call me too.
Rostolia: Good.
"Rostolia let go of the Faceless Man's hand and ran away, almost falling on her heels. The faceless one sat on the throne."
Faceless: * What can you think of with giants? Nothing comes to mind at all.*
???: * Torture them... Kill them... Destroy them...*
Faceless: * Who are you? Where are you?*
...
Faceless: * Why are you silent?*
If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
...
Faceless: * What was that?.. Okay, since I do not know, I will consult with a Calm madman, maybe we will come up with something. But still, what or who was it?*
--- Some time later---
"Rostolia entered the throne room."
Rostolia: I hope I didn't bother you? Hin has woken up and he is apologizing to Belias for now. If you go to the Calm Madman now, you will come with us.
"The faceless one got up and walked up to Rostolya, tilted his head to the side."
Rostolia: Did I misunderstand you? Ah! Sorry! Now, now.
"Rostolia took the hand of the Faceless One."
Faceless: Where should I go? I don't know anything here...
Rostolia: Oh, I'm sorry for such negligence. As you exit the throne room, turn left and go straight to the headdress, and then take a single right turn and there will be a meeting place.
Faceless: Okay, thanks. And don't make so many apologies. It is I, as the ruler, who must apologize to you for coming home so rarely and not knowing anything about what you are doing.
"The faceless one is gone."
Rostolya: * How kind he is...*
"Rostolia wiped her eye from a tear of blood and quickly followed Hin."
--- The room of a Calm madman---
"There's a knock on the door."
Calm madman: You don't have to knock, come on in.
Rostolia: Hello again, I brought Hin and Faceless.
Calm madman: And why did you bring the Faceless One?
Rostolya: It seemed to me that he had nothing to do and asked me to bring him here.
Calm madman: Got it. Then, Rostolia, you are free to rest.
Rostolia: OK, thanks. I'll be in my room.
"Rostolia left the room, closing the door."
Calm nameless: * Can you remove this door? Annoying... * And so, Hin. Greetings to you again. It's been a long time since we've seen each other, you've even managed to grow up. What did you do while I was gone?
Hin: Greetings, teacher. I graduated from the academy and became a teacher there.
Calm madman: Clearly, clearly. Haven't you wasted all your unsurpassability in things like mine?
Hin: No, of course, I have additionally studied the structure of the bodies of all living beings and am ready to work for the benefit.
Calm madman: That's commendable, well done. And now let's get acquainted. Faceless, this is Hin, my student. Hin, greet the ruler of these lands, Faceless One. A creature not born, but created, my brother and unable to speak.
Hin: Greetings, Faceless One.
Hin bowed. The faceless One nodded."
Calm madman: You can raise your head, he greeted you too. So maybe I should let you go first, my brother. And what did you come to me with?
"The calm madman put his hand on the shoulder of the Faceless One."
Calm madman: Tell me.
Faceless: I want to start with a more understandable question. We have giants and I do not know what to do with them, but they agree to anything.
Calm madman: Then I will teach Hin using them. As soon as you figure out what to do with them, you can take them away.
Faceless: Well, then they are at your disposal. I'll report to Rostolya, and she'll sort out the paper, who's where and why.
Calm madman: Does she do paperwork?
Faceless: Yes. Today, while I was in the throne room and now, I see her mana form and see that she is working with papers.
Calm madman: It's strange. I thought Smer was doing all this work.
Faceless: Maybe they agreed on a split job?
Calm madman: It's quite possible. So, what about the second question?
Faceless: When I was sitting on the throne and thinking about the giants, I heard someone's voice in my head, but there was no one anywhere.
Calm madman: It's strange. It's very strange. We have antimagic walls, and there are no psychic abilities in this universe. So, there was no one around... I don't even know. So, we need the help of a knowledgeable person. Although he may not know either, but it's better to try, don't you agree?
Faceless: I agree.
Calm Madman: Then we need a Half-dead shield even earlier than planned and don't forget to move his companion too.
Faceless: Okay, but how do you know about the companion?
The calm madman: I've already thought about it and I'll reveal my plan a little bit. When all the main force of the brothers come together, then I will tell you everything. That is, you have to deliver a Half-dead shield.
Faceless: How is this the main force?
Calm madman: And that's it. That's it, I've answered the questions, or get ready to leave. As soon as I'm done with Hin, I'll move you, otherwise you'll be there yourself.
Faceless: Good.
"The faceless one broke down the door and left."
Calm madman: * Thank you, of course, but I wanted to take it off.*
Hin: Is it okay?
Calm madman: Nothing, I was going to remove it anyway.
Hin: And why?
Calm madman: Yes, because! The door is without mana, made especially for me. Don't ask too many questions. I'm not happy with my brother's calm demeanor.
Hin:...
Calm madman: All right. Let's start with the training. More precisely, to the plan that I came up with. We have giants at our disposal and a simple plan. So we'll divide them by rank. The stupid ones, but the strong ones will be the average rank of the CORPUS. Come on, repeat after me. Su-pro-K.
Hin: Su?- proc.
Calm madman: Well done. Next, smart and strong HEADS.
Hin: Dae-ah?
The calm madman: Da-eh.
Hin: Da-eH. Yeah, I get it.
Calm madman: The stupid and weak will be BOTTOM.
Hin: Mot-tob?
Calm madman: So, and the one who will lead them is APPROXIMATE!
Hin: Uh?
Calm down, madman: Etam-ix-orp-pa, repeat.
Hin: Uhm... Etam-ix-orp-pa!
Calm madman: That's right, well done. And now let's get to the essence of our work. As soon as you get into the case, I'll leave on business, but then I'll come back.
Hin: Good.
Calm madman: Well, that's the job. Now we will divide them into classes and you will have to disfigure them as I will explain to you later. Then, by connecting them to those two roots, you will have to get all the insides out of the stomach, except the heart.
Hin: Good.
Calm madman: Okay, then let's go to them.
"The calm madman and Hin came to the dungeon where the giants were."
Calm madman: I'm in charge of you now. Now we will divide you into the 4th rank. Who is the most important one here?
"The oldest giant came out of the crowd."
Calm madman: So, look Hin. Chain, rope, butcher knife, nose, eyes, mouth, ears. Will you solve the riddle?
Hin: Already.
Calm madman: Well done. So, next. Come out all who are stronger than others, but weaker than the main one.
"7 giants came out."
Calm madman: Rope, butcher knife, mouth, eyes, nose. Next, come out those who are smarter than the rest.
"14 giants came out."
A calm madman: Rope, mouth, eyes. The remaining ones will be a rope, a butcher's knife, a mouth, eyes.
Hin: And why is that?
A calm madman: But will a smart person consider himself smarter than others?
Hin: Uhm... Understood.
Calm madman: And so, giants who accepted their fate and rejected the city, meet. This is Hin, my student. He will complete my task, and you will help him. Perhaps the smartest of you have already figured out what and how, but I'll tell you anyway. You will be divided by rank. 1. the giant as the most important. Next, there are 7 giants. It's not a big problem, but it's easy to solve. We will have the 4th squad, but then why the 7th? Easy and simple. 2 giants per squad, and the remaining one is added to your very predecessor. This will be the 1st squad. Next, the 1st and 2nd squads will have 3 more giants from the middle and junior ranks. 3rd and 4th squads, 4 giants from the middle and lower ranks are leaving for you. I leave the distribution of importance to your predecessor and give advice, do not make one squad much stronger than another. They should all become a little weaker, that is, without strong fluctuations in overall power.
???: Okay, I get it.
Calm madman: Since we've figured it out, I'll go. Hin, have fun and don't forget to sleep.
Hin: Okay, sure, and thanks.
