Genocide Online

Chapter 144 Whack-A-Mole part four

As I moved around with Jun, I had to keep dealing with waves and more waves of incoming players. One who tried jumping at me with his sword, that I knocked down with an elbow blow, two others that were leisurely observing and were easy targets for iron scraps, one that tried attacking me with a dagger, that I kicked away And a bunch of others that I got rid of by throwing explosives at them.

I also used Santas <Holy Severance> to deflect magical attacks and make them hit other players that were trying to move closer to me, though even with that and with my threads killing many of them while they still approached me, I still had to use deal with quite a few in melee combat.

Some even tried coming after me right after respawning, so I had to kill them over and over again. It was good that they served as shields for arrows though, and I could always put explosives on them before throwing those players towards the archers.

Even then, I think Im getting outnumbered here. Belzenstock layout makes it hard to move properly, and I cant go all out with the explosives as I dont want to hurt my reputation within the city too much. Even if I move faster than most due to Inoues, Kageyamas and Juns help, I still cant really get away from all the pursuers since they seem to always come from all sides. They were even able to hit an arrow on my leg already.

That said, Im actually having fun playing like this, but its gonna be bothersome if I miss the chance of killing those twins because this player avalanche kept me for too long.

Maria, you stupid! I suddenly heard someone say a shout like that This is definitely Yuu. And it was great that, just as expected, he was right next to Maria as they had their usual quarrel.

I quickly approached them both and grabbed them by the collar.

R-Rena!? Maria exclaimed as she was lifted by me as I rode Jun.

Its me.

I need your help with something, could I ask for a little favor? I asked the both of them.

O-of course! Leave it to me! Ill do anything you ask! Maria instantly answered.

I bet its gonna be something unreasonable Yuu seemed to be a bit less enthusiastic, but it was fine.

Yuu, I need you to broadcast my voice throughout the entire city. I told him.

Youre giving a speech!? He seemed to be surprise.

Pretty much that. I answered. He started muttering something, but I ignored that since I knew hed do it anyways, And Maria, can you please launch some colored fireworks for me once I give you the signal?

Ill do it! Whatever colors and intensity you want, theyll be there as soon as you tell me! She eagerly said.

<Din>, <Microphone>, <Broadcast>, <Election Campaign Car>. Youre good to go, Rena! Yuu told me.

Can you hear me? I said as a test. Everyone that I could see seemed to react to those words, so it seemed to be working, Im Rena, a companion that once fought for freedom with you.

She did what!? Maria whispered to Yuu.

Shes talking about the World Quest that we cleared together. Yuu whispered back.

Oh, I see. Maria nodded while saying this.

It was a bit bothersome that I couldnt gauge peoples reactions properly this time around because I was running instead of standing in a podium, but this was also a lot less embarrassing, so I didnt mind continuing like this, You dont need to remember me, but let me tell you this. I continued my speech.

I wonder if anyone could possibly forget about Rena Yuu wondered.

Impossible. Maria instantly replied.

It was possible though. Its been months since the time I helped them out, so some of them really could have forgotten And even if they havent, its still a good way of showing humility to talk like this, The city is under attack by an army of migrants that were ordered by the ambitious second prince of the kingdom, who murdered the crown prince and is seeking to further solidify is rule. I told everyone.

Wait, the crown prince is dead!? Maria exclaimed.

Thats new to me too Yuu replied.

Im busy now, so I cant really answer them though, He wishes to use the migrants to get rid of the independent government that currently rules the city and to remove the freedom you fought so hard to obtain. I said.

Oh Yuu seemed to get what I was getting at.

She really isnt holding back at throwing dirt at the prince, is she? Maria said.

It was just too convenient though. I came here to talk about independence, and a golden opportunity to make them start hating the kingdom was left on my plate. Theres no way I wouldnt use that, The kingdom is once again trying to rob us of our faith in Krebskulm! I exclaimed.

Poor second prince whose face I never even saw Yuu commented.

Oda Well, I guess I can be a bit sympathetic to him. Maria said.

And now, to consolidate my position by putting myself as someone that not only fought for their freedom before, but who will fight for it again now, Fight! Let us fight against those unreasonable beasts who threaten our order! Who try to remove our freedom and faith! Let us protect our sacred ocean! I told them.

The apostle of Chaos is talking about protecting the Order Yuu commented.

Id have totally believed that if I didnt know Rena though. Maria replied.

I dont think this will go perfectly. Ron will probably be aware that Im scheming something, but I dont think hell be able to stop me now that I took control of the flow of events like this, Fight! Fight for Krebskulm! I finished my speech, and as soon as I did, the citizens of Belzenstock roared in approval.

Well That was something. Maria commented.

I have no idea what youre planning, Rena, but its definitely no good, isnt it? Yuu asked.

I figured I could ignore this question, so I just kept on running while in good spirits.
