He had lunch with Chris and Caitlin and it was really superb compared to Shutra’s breakfast . It seemed like they had brought their own chefs to the battlefield .

After the things were finished, In-gong returned to his base with Carack .

‘Wasn’t it Zephyr who uncovered it in the game?’

The secret of Caitlin’s birth .

She was the illegitimate child of the 4th queen, Elaine Moonlight, and Gallehed, one of the five captains of the Demon King’s Palace .

Zephyr was an orthodox member and didn’t let this fact go . He incited his other siblings to unite together and raised troops to get rid of Caitlin, Chris and Queen Elaine all at once .

Caitlin, Chris and the 4th Queen Elaine resisted and as a result, both sides received heavy casualties .

Chris, Caitlin and the 4th Queen Elaine died . The lycanthropes became virtually extinct .

The forces of the other siblings who competed with Zephyr were weakened .

Zephyr, who stirred up the conflict, watched with his hands behind his back and received mild damage .

‘After that battle, his power was firmly established . '

In other words, it would be good for In-gong if the Caitlin purge event didn’t happen .

‘Or I can use it . ’

In-gong frowned at his merciless thoughts . He had talked to Chris and Caitlin for a while and ate their rice . To be honest, he was more overwhelmed by Caitlin than Chris . Her face flicked before him .

‘Ah, I don’t know . It is still far away . Let’s solve this situation first . ’

It was still far away . It would happen in a few years, so he could think about it later .

‘Whether I decide to use them or not, I need to raise my own power . ’

The same conclusion from this morning emerged . He could only start doing things once he raised his strength .

"Carack, please prepare a team for scouting . It will be enough if we eat and leave tomorrow morning right?”

"That is great . ”

Carack nodded with a bright face . He was quite satisfied with the meal received at Caitlin’s base .

'Indeed, I acquired the Gourmet skill . ’

Gourmet Lv1 . It wasn’t helpful in combat, so he wouldn’t actively raise the skil level .

‘What is good? Isn’t it just developing the mouth? Then is it bad?’

They were futile worries . In-gong cleared his thoughts and once again said to Carack, "Then I will take a break . Later on, let me fill my stomach with some cows for dinner . ”

"Understood . ”

In-gong left Carack and entered the tent . Now that he was alone, a sigh emerged without him knowing it .

He had truly entered the game or he had arrived at a different world that was just like the game .

There was no explanation about why this happened . In-gong wondered why he had a game-like ability .

His job was a Protagonist while his uniqueness was a Conquest Knight .

In-gong had these questions but decided to set them aside for the moment .

‘I will train with the sword . ’

From the time being, the most important thing was improving Shutra . He had to do that while gathering subordinates and investigating .

In-gong took out the wooden sword .

And the next morning, In-gong reached level 5 .

&

"Will you be okay today?”

Carack asked after eating breakfast and leaving the garrison . He was smiling but his eyes looked worried .

"Yes, I will be fine . ”

He was a crude, oversized orc but In-gong had become accustomed to it . Carack shrugged at In-gong’s answer .

“Hrmm, it seems like someone has changed overnight, although it is a good thing . ”

Carack had only known Shutra for two days . Instead of responding, In-gong looked over the soldiers .

There was a total of 31 troops under In-gong, including Carack . They were all orcs .

They were local troops, led by Carack, that were assigned to In-gong .

‘Anyway, I want to continue training . ’

In fact, In-gong spend all of last night levelling up .

He had suddenly appeared in another world, so he couldn’t sleep . However, he found it enjoyable swinging the sword and didn’t look at the time .

The result was visible . Moreover, he grew faster because he was low levelled .

He couldn’t help feeling happy . It was like studying and seeing his rank rise significantly in a national high school .

‘Ah, I want a sword . I want to level up . ’

Fortunately, he had levelled up this morning, so he was in the best condition . He was able to swing the sword all night despite Shutra’s low stamina because his stamina was restored when he levelled up .

‘Huhuhu, my name is Joo In-gong . I am 1 . 3 times stronger than Villager A . ’

In-gong currently had an average of 13 stat points . He was stronger than an ordinary Villager A .

He intentionally left his additional points and skill points alone . It would be more difficult to level up at higher levels, so he didn’t want to waste the additional points just yet .

‘I will save it for later . ’

The same was true for his skill points . He could learn many skills if he concentrated .

‘How do I learn magic or psychic abilities? Do I need a separate teacher?’

As he went through his troubles in his head, he arrived at the area that he was supposed to scout .

The scouting area Caitlin assigned him was originally where the Red Lightning tribe used to live . It was an area that the Red Lightning tribe abandoned due to strategic reasons .

It couldn’t just be left alone .

'Yes, I can’t come all the way here just to write a report on scouting . ’

Caitlin said there wouldn’t be a big threat but he wasn’t completely reassured . In-gong put aside his desire to level up and searched the surroundings vigilantly . While confirming the map given to Carack, he zoomed in on the mini-map as much as possible to ensure accuracy .

After approximately 20 minutes .

“Um . ”

In-gong suddenly stopped . Carack quickly stopped the soldiers and asked In-gong,

"What is it? Is it too hard? Are your legs sore?”

He seemed to be seen as quite a big weakling . In-gong pointed to the map he was looking at and asked .

"This is the correct map right?”

“Is there something wrong?”

“Rather than something being wrong . . . ”

There was another part . The map showed a straight path while the mini-map showed a small side path .

Why did it matter?

‘What is it? A hidden path!’

It wasn’t on the map . In other words, the people who made the map didn’t know about it .

Yet, it was on the mini-map . In other words, a route obviously existed .

Then it had to be a hidden path!

‘If this is a game, then it will be an event . ’

At the end of the hidden path, there was always a monster, event or treasure . Moreover, this was a reconnaissance mission so finding anything was good .

‘An enemy might emerge but . . . there is Carack!’

He had Carack and the 30 orc warriors that were at least 10 times stronger than Villager A . He didn’t think there would be a big problem unless the enemy had superior numbers .

"Carack, I will lead from now on . ”

Carack narrowed his eyes, then he burst out laughing .

"Your eyes are burning . Ambition is roaring . ”

In-gong guided the orcs . The path was changed suddenly but because of Carack, the orcs followed In-gong’s instructions without saying anything .

The side path was really hidden . After walking through bushes for a while and passing an area covered in rocks from a landslide, there was a small path covered by trees .

As In-gong had expected, the path didn’t just end up as a path . At the end was an old stone door . There were letters engraved on the surface but they were difficult to recognize because they were covered in moss .

"Wah, how did you find this? Is Prince a magician?”

In-gong grinned at Carack’s admiration .

“I just did . ”

He wasn’t a magician yet . Although, maybe, he would soon become one .

In-gong shrugged and ordered Carack and the orcs to clean up the stones around the door .

The stone door was big enough for Carack to walk through but it didn’t budge when they tried to open it . It seemed like they had to break the stone door to get inside .

"Prince, what do you want to do? Should I break in?”

Carack asked In-gong . In-gong stared at the stone door for a while instead of answering .

‘It is like the protagonist getting a broken leg instead of dying after falling off a cliff . ’

The main character lived while others died . This was a chance to obtain money or something like an elixir .

In-gong stared at ‘Protagonist Correction Lv1’ and nodded . He ordered Carack,

"Smash . "

Carack lifted his hammer .
