Chapter 128 - Chapter 129 {How I Became King}

Scene:King Bit and R. Kizu are shown flying on their respective beasts. R. Kizu speaks—

R. Kizu:"My lord, after you became king, those people finally showed themselves. Now the Shin Kingdom's biggest problem will be solved."

Bit:"Right."

Bit (in his mind):"My journey to becoming king started six years ago, when Secret Sky was newly created. I went there with my friends…"

Flashback

Scene:Secret Sky City, Guild Hotel. Bit is in his room with his friends.

Puchi (member of the TARA party):"Leader, this is my first time in Secret Sky City!"

Tau (same party):"Well, that's because this city was created recently."

Chaca (same party):"Hahaha…"

Bit:"Alright, tomorrow we have two tasks. First, we'll tour Secret Sky City, and second—"

Puchi:"And second, we'll hunt the dungeon here!"

Bit:"Right. But first, we need to take some jobs from the guild board."

Puchi:"I don't think there will be many dungeon-related jobs here since this is a new kingdom."

Chaca:"True, but we can still do other work."

Tau:"Like what? We can't even enter that huge jungle outside because the monsters and beasts will kill us. And we can't kill them either, because they're the guards of Secret Sky."

Bit:"Don't worry. Dad said there's no need to take any jobs here. We came only to rest."

Puchi:"Really?!"

Bit:"Yes. All three of you have worked really hard recently."

Tau:"Yeah, that's true… ahh!"

Scene:Suddenly, there is a knock on the door. Knock, knock.

Bit:"Wait, I'm coming."

Scene:Bit opens the door. A being stands there, completely covered in cloth.

Bit:"?! Who are you?!"

That Being:"May I come in?"

Chaca:"It's a girl's voice!"

Scene:Chaca runs over, pushes Bit aside, and says—

Chaca:"Yes, sure! Come in, this is your room too!"

That Girl:"Thank you."

Tau (whispering):"Hey, what are you doing?"

Chaca (whispering):"What's your problem? You and Puchi get all the attention—can't I deserve a girl too?!"

Bit (in his mind):"What should I do with this guy… -_-"

Puchi:"So, who are you, and what do you need from us?"

Scene:The girl removes her cloth, revealing her face.

Bit:"…!"

Scene:She is Gisha—a goblin with human skin, named long ago by five-year-old Precious.

Puchi:"!! Secretary Gisha?!"

Tau (whispering):"Well, this really is her room…"

Chaca:"Shut up… T_T!"

Bit:"W-Why are you here?" (calm tone)

Gisha:"Can't I come?"

Bit:"No, no, no—that's not what I meant!"

Puchi:"What is the reason for your visit?"

Gisha:"I have a job for Bit."

Bit:"F-For me?"

Gisha:"Can you do the job of a king?"

Bit:"Okay… wait, what?"

Tau:"Are you serious?!"

Chaca:"He can't do that!"

Puchi:"Ms. Gisha, please think again."

Gisha:"I'm saying this after thinking it through."

Bit:"What about King Dinsh?"

Gisha:"Oh, that trash? Our lord killed him."

Bit, Tau, Puchi, and Chaca:"Huh?! What?!"

Gisha:"According to the rules, if we kill a king, his kingdom comes under us. Now Shin Kingdom belongs to us. But we don't need it, so I suggested that you become its next king."

Tau:"W-Wait, how do you know Bit?"

Gisha:"Hmph! Who doesn't know him? He's the current leader of Shin Kingdom's top guild party—BIT FIZ."

Tau:"Right…"

Bit:"But why me?"

Gisha:"Because… I trust you, maybe?"

Bit:"Huh… y-you… trust me?!"

Chaca (whispering):"Why is he so shocked by that?"

Tau (whispering):"I don't know."

Bit:"If you say so… then okay."

Gisha:"Good. Then let's go."

Puchi:"Wait! What about this party? This party was created by your grandfather's grandfather!"

Bit:"Life needs change. And everything eventually comes to an end. Maybe this is the end of this party."

Tau (emotional):"No…"

Chaca:"What about us?!"

Bit:"You are my friends… not members of this party."

Tau:"Oh… then just give us this party. We promise to take good care of it."

Bit (in his mind):"-_- …That was a quick change."

Bit:"Alright."

Present Time

Bit (in his mind):"And that's how I became the king of Shin Kingdom…"
