The Overlord of Blood and Iron

“…”

“…”

Podolski and Nieu didn’t know how to respond. They just kept quiet.

“Hu-hu… hu-hu-hu… Kang Chul-In better reward me well for this. I have this dungeon that requires some help to clear, so I shall get him to do my bidding!” Dorian revealed his everlasting confidence.

It wasn’t surprising, as even Kang Chul-In acknowledged Dorian’s skills. In fact, everyone in Pangaea knew that he was the best dungeon conqueror in the world.

“What do you plan to do?”

“We shall sneak in.” Dorian replied to Podolski.

“It’s gonna take an eternity to guess the password, plus deceiving the voice-recognition magic is difficult. If we break the wall, then the alarm will probably sound. There’s only one way. Let’s just not touch the wall.”

“…May I beg your pardon, your Majesty?”

“Exactly as I said. If we don’t touch the wall, how would we get caught?”

“I don’t quite understand...” Podolski and Nieu tilted their heads in confusion. Dorian’s plan was far too strange for them to comprehend.

“This.”

Dorian shook a flask with a silver liquid.

“Ghostifying potion.”

“...?”

“This secret drug turns its consumer into a ghost for 30 seconds! With this, is there really a need to open the door? We can just go through the wall!”

“W-Wow!” Podolski was amazed.

“How did you obtain this magical potion...” The same went for Nieu.

Both of them had never even heard of a wonder drug that could turn someone into a ghost.

“Haha your Majesty, that was a nice bluff.”

“Your Majesty… if you wish to lie, please make it less obvious...”

In the end, both Podolski and Nieu stared at Dorian with disbelief. They both thought Dorian was making things up.

“W-What’s up with those stares?” Dorian was flustered.

“Your Majesty, can’t you just say honestly that you don’t have a method to enter the Nekromantik bay?”

“Lying is bad!”

Both of them criticized Dorian.

“Grrr!” Dorian exclaimed.

“I’m serious! Just trust me!”

However, Podolski and Nieu continued to stare at Dorian with disbelief.

It wasn’t their fault.

Dorian’s story was too fantasy-like to believe. It was natural for some skepticism to brew.

“Hey, I’m an Overlord. Do you think I lie about these things?”

Nod nod!

The two of them nodded their heads vigorously.

“Should’ve taken care of my image...” Dorian regretted, but it was too late.

People already recognized him as the clumsy idiot, hence it would not be easy to fix this image.

“Fuck it, watch carefully then! Hmph!” Dorian huffed and immediately gulped down the whole ghostifying potion in the flask. He distributed a flask to Podolski and Nieu each.

“Erm...”

“Hmm...”

The pair hesitated for a moment but decided to follow Dorian suit. They had nothing to lose.
