《An NPC Challenges the Dark Lord(LN)》Vol 1. Chapter 6: The Ascension to Royalty of an NPC
Advertisement
Now where do I hide this Prince Gabriel kid…The world of warfare is a fitting place. Yami hates the absence of peace and so he will never come here to defeat this man too early.
“Guards who have you brought before me? This looks like a war machine…”
“Hello King Senso. You will have a new son Prince Gabriel.”
“You cannot tell me what to do! This is my kingdom! Feed him to the dragons. My four sons are enough. I do not want an adopted son that’s not born of nobility.”
“That’s very easy to arrange.”
The Game God grinned and altered the entire kingdom’s memories.
“Hello King Senso. It is Prince Gabriel’s birthday tomorrow. Your only son. What are you going to do?”
Game God changed appearance into a monk with white garments and bald with some white beard.
“Hello Elder Monk. You have come to visit at the right time to enjoy my only son’s birthday and inheritance of my kingdom. I am glad I only have one. I don’t need to worry about dividing the kingdoms amongst sons.”
“Indeed. You followed my advice by heart and only made room for one son. Your boy has a very special ability that I will fully unlock tomorrow.”
“Please do Elder Monk…I hope this ability is useful in warfare. We are in the middle of very strong enemies and far far away allies.”
“Very.”
“I also want you to become my advisor. I do not trust my current one.”
“Thank you for the wonderful offer but I am busy praying.”
The boy came into the throne room right on time to demonstrate the perfect qualities I’ve implanted.
“Our King”
The boy bowed.
“You are too nice son. You must learn to be rough like your Father.”

“That is not good Father.”
“Being good won’t help our kingdom in this war filled world! Today we are hunting to get rid of that girly personality.”
The boy will not break.
“Hold your rifle this way. Now aim the bear from afar.”
“The bear did nothing wrong Father.”
One of the guards proceeded to walk to the bear and got attacked. The King sacrificed the guard.
“Son shoot it now! One of my men is in danger, which will be your men soon! Learn to protect your own men.”
“Father he walked in on the bear…”
“Are you saying it’s the guard's fault?!!! SHOOT IT.”
This man might have been the wrong kind of father for Prince Gabriel’s angelic nature.
Prince Gabriel shot the bear dead right through the head.
“Good aim but weak resolve. You cannot be King without taking risks and killing. Killing is necessary in this world. That man had a family and he will not come back home to them because you couldn’t save him.”
King Senso brought his son to the mother and daughter of the fallen guard.
“My son failed to shoot the bear attacking your husband. Your husband died.”
The mother cried at the doorstep.
“Apologize son.”
“No! He ran towards the bear! The bear did nothing!”
The King was filled with rage and kicked the boy’s legs to force him to kneel.
“Stop twisting the story!!! APOLOGIZE.”
“I’m sorry your husband was killed by the bear.”
The mother was both sad and confused with what’s going on. The boy got kicked again.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t save your husband.”
That wasn’t the apology the King expected and so he got kicked again.
“I’m sorry I killed your husband by-”

“YES. We apologize deeply. Here is gold compensation as your husband was a great soldier.”
The boy could not understand the present he was experiencing. His memories are filled with fun and happy moments with his Father and not a single memory involved kicking or shooting a bear.
Now I know why I shouldn’t have messed with memories.
He cried later when they came home to the throne room late at night but his Father used a “non-lethal” method choking him to sleep while he kept shouting that boys aren’t allowed to cry.
I could just erase his memories again…I must ensure this boy stays pure. His state is still pure despite all that happened today.
Early in the morning, I had a chat with the boy and told him, he had the skill to take the skills of others and to my surprise; he immediately went to his Father’s room and copied his skills.
The royal party will be this evening. A gathering of strong and weak nobles of many classes. I used my sense again on the kid and he remains pure.
The party was held in the throne room.
An ability up for grabs every hundred years…the most overpowered the System has ever allowed…will finally be in the right hands of a pure angelic boy of my creation.
He was very behaved during the early part of the party where everyone is having a chat.
King Senso was the host himself and dinner finally came serving everyone red wine and the rare meals that soldiers cannot enjoy during constant warfare.
And then my senses detected pure evil. Yami must be here to crash the party but the direction is different…
The evil emanated from the boy.
The boy cloned many copies of himself equal to the number of guests and stabbed everyone but I managed to fade away.
So his father had cloning techniques, it explains all the dodged assassinations…
He took all the skills of the strong nobles. He did not obtain Resurrection and so was forced to clean up the throne room but he did gain high level memory manipulation.
He poured all his mana into erasing the existence of the dead nobles forever.
I did not expect a young boy would break that fast but it was just one day with his father going berserk…
It’s really my fault this time filling the boy with sweet memories when his Father was a war shock ruthless man.
“I’m going to save this world from war.”
