My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 347: The Misunderstanding

"Yes, Your Majesty is correct, we need to find new stations to conquer each day or your precious subjects will all die, Don't worry, aside from me no one else will blame you," Hee-won said with a benevolent smile.

Hee-won seemed to be having fun as Haru side-eyed her, she knew that when she treated him like this he felt uncomfortable.

And this made her curious as to what the reason was since this seemed the only time it happened, if it was something else he'd be playful and keep the mood going but not on this.

'Should I ask Queresha? Maybe it is Haru's black history, This can be fun,' Alea could easily read Hee-won's thoughts as she shook her head.

'Well, it isn't just embarrassing for Haru but also for Boss as well,' Alea had seen Hae-in often tease Haru and Queresha the same way, she seemed to know something others didn't and it even made Queresha blush slightly on some occasions when Hae-in did it, This made others even more curious.

As for what the reason behind this was? Alea herself didn't know and Hae-in didn't tell anyone else no matter how much they asked, she was very tight-lipped about it.

"Well, that won't be an issue if I can complete the Scenario," Everyone looked at Haru and they couldn't understand how that would be possible, apart from one person.

'This is what I thought would happen,' Dok-ja knew that Haru would do this, although it did pain him to see such a great opportunity to increase his flag's rank slip away, but he had made the most out of the situation anyway.

'It is good that I took two stations from Sung-kook and Min-seob as a test of loyalty,' Dok-ja had 5 stations under his control right now, the original Myeong-dong group had two extra stations and now he took two from Dong-myo, he only chose the station that was farthest from here and Chung-muro so it doesn't spark suspicions.

Also, this was another move to get Haru to look the other way so that he can focus on the scenario more, because if he didn't do that Haru would complete the King's road in less than 12 hours.

"Is that where you went earlier?" Hee-won finally pieced it together and Dok-ja's eyes widened a little when he heard that Haru left the group for a while.

[The skill 'Fourth Wall' is activated.]

Dok-ja was really thankful for this skill since the current situation can be really bad for him depending on what Haru did in the time he was missing.

"Yes, I found out where the flagpole is and the people who guard it, all that is left is starting the attack," Haru said and Dok-ja felt a lot relieved after this.

'Haru is very straightforward, so if he had heard something, he would've asked me about it by now,' Dok-ja felt like he was overreacting before, but even then it might be just his mind making things worse for him.

Dok-ja was a bit tired since a lot of things have been happening and he didn't even get to rest last night since he was on watch duty, on top of that he had to make so many plans for the changing situations while moving all around the place.

He was really tired, like really tired because of all the things that were happening keeping him on his toes.

"So, Are we doing it now?" Hee-won asked, she was ready for this, or more like she was waiting for this moment and she knew Haru very well.

"Yes, the sooner the better, right?" Haru said and Hee-won smiled standing up, Hyun-sung, Dok-ja, and Alea also stood up since there was no point in saying anything further.

"Well, you guys don't need to do anything, just keep an eye on the situation, this will be easy," Haru said before walking out of the tent and going straight for the flagpole.

Dok-ja looked around and took out his phone to send Dong-hoon a message.

->Cut their internet

I'll trust you only this once <-

->I'll keep my promise, you'll be in a safe place soon

'Well, I don't think there is a better place to send Dong-hoon to other than Chung-muro, He would be treated well,' Dok-ja kept the phone back in his pocket as he looked at Min-seob running out of the tent with a panicked look on his face.

And it wasn't him alone, the entire station was in an uproar because of the message that was displayed in front of them.

['Dong-myo Group's' Home base 'Dong-myo Station' has been taken over 'Chung-muro Group']

"When was the station taken over? We have more than half of our fighting force dedicated to protecting it," Min-seob ran straight to the flagpole with Sung-kook, they were both shocked that the flagpole was taken over without anyone knowing even after they had hidden it so well.

"I-I didn't get any news about an attack? Did Jung-hyuk go crazy?" Sung-kook said in shock and Min-seob gritted his teeth since it seemed like this was it, But, even then Min-seob didn't believe that Jung-hyuk was this strong at this point.

'What is happening?' Min-seob thought as he reached in front of the Flagpole and stopped since the scene in front of them was shocking.

There was the Chung-muro group's flag there, the same as the one in Haru's hands.

"Hello, my new group members, I am quite happy to see that you guys are so enthusiastic to meet your New leader," Haru waved at them with a casual smile.

"Y-You…" Min-seob was blinking in confusion since this wasn't something he expected, he saw Dok-ja standing behind Haru and he realized it quickly.

"We've been duped," Min-seob quickly tried to drop the message about the imposter Jung-hyuk in the Prophets chat group but…

"T-The internet is gone," Sung-kook stuttered as soon as he saw that they couldn't use their phones.

[You have planted your flag into the flagpole of the 'Dong-myo Group'.]

[Your navy flag has absorbed the cumulative achievements of the navy flag.]

[Your navy flag has evolved into a brown flag.]

[A strong flag protects you.]

[Currently Occupied: Chungmuro (Main Base), Haeng-dang, Wang-simni, Sin Geum-ho, Dong-Daemun History and Culture Park, Dong-Daemun, Dong-myo, Yak-su.]

[The remaining members of the Dong-myo Group are waiting for your decision.]

Haru looked at the panels in front of him and looked back at Min-seob who also realized that he was at someone else's mercy right now.

'We're Fucked,' Min-seob cursed in his mind as his station was now finished.

An Hour later,

Haru, Dok-ja, Sung-kook, and Min-seob were currently in the same tent in which Dok-ja was when he pretended to be Jung-hyuk.

Dong-hoon was also here but he was fully quiet and didn't even move for some reason.

'I did break the hypnosis on him, why is he behaving like this?' Dok-ja wondered as he was standing near the bed, but now wasn't the time to be worried about that since.

"So, you guys don't have Chang-shin station?" Haru asked as he was sitting on the bed's edge looking at Min-seob and Sung-kook.

"No, it is currently in possession of another group," Min-seob answered since there was nothing else he could do since they had lost now.

"Do you know anything about this group?" Haru asked making Min-seob and Sung-kook look at each other.

'This is our chance!' Dok-ja could easily read the thoughts of these two, to be honest, he himself was nervous that these two don't blabber their mouths off in front of Haru, not any more than necessary.

"It is under Da-bong Station, their leader 'Tyrant King' is actually a very vicious and power-hungry person, so he has been expanding his territory without stopping," Min-seob said as Haru nodded.

"So, This guy has already completed the King's Path scenario?" Haru muttered making the three look at him.

"Don't look at me that way, The reward for completing that scenario is the king's attribute, So, it isn't hard to guess that, although it can be off the mark but looks like it wasn't," Haru laughed and Dok-ja sighed slightly, this was how Haru was, if he had something on his mind he'll speak upfront which was also the reason he could catch people off-guard sometimes.

'It is Queresha-ssi I really need to watch out for,' Dok-ja could feel that Queresha was much more cautious and doubting than Haru.

'He is surprisingly ...Easy-going,' Min-seob thought as he could feel the glimmer of survival right now, it was because Haru didn't give off the scary vibe you would expect from a person who was the leader of Chung-muro.

"Oh, I have another question for you," Haru looked at Min-seob and Sung-kook again.

"We'll answer it," Sung-kook nodded quickly since this was good for them, because it seemed that if they can answer him he really won't kill them.

"Did you get this information about Da-bong Station from your Prophet group?" Haru asked making the stiffen in place, Haru didn't look easy-going as before even with the same smile. They could feel the change in mood as the air was a lot heavier for them.
