Deoen’s flower that breaks the opponent’s core. Mock siege war unfolds as the siege war season kicks off!
The mock siege war consists of a total of 3 teams.
Among them, the elite of 4, including the Grand General and General, along with 7 ordinary soldiers…
“No way.”
“Huh?”
“I heard from the greatsword human… I mean, Black, that this time the soldier count is going to increase to ten.”
“That many? Then it’ll be tough for the General to operate.”
No matter how elite a person belonging to the General position is, when balance adjustments are made, their levels inevitably become similar.
Of course, they might be able to cover to some extent due to their skills, but if the number of soldiers increases, the game itself could become incredibly loose.
If not careful, the protagonist could change altogether.
The Devil shook his head.
“Instead, they’re going to restrict weapons and set the difficulty really low. Like only being able to rely on resource gathering and meat shields.”
Ultimately, ordinary soldiers are there solely to block the General’s advance.
To effectively stop the General, you need another General.
[Ah haha, the soldiers are just for resources or meat shields]
[Honestly, if the ordinary soldiers are strong, it won’t be fun]
[For real lol]
[Honestly, it’s about watching Rankers fight, it’s lame if an ordinary soldier stops them]
[Leave the soldiers and just split the Generals, okay?]
[Is everyone out yet?]
[YenaTangTang has sponsored 30,000 won.]
─So it’s Yena Grand General now?
“I’d like it if that’s the case… but there are a lot of popular people around.”
“If this human is doing it, I should just do it.”
“What are you saying, kid? You have no chance either.”
“Hmph.”
This is…
Yena’s hand smacked the Devil’s head lightly.
“Ouch!” The Devil exclaimed, glaring with wide eyes.
Anyone who saw it could misinterpret it as child abuse, but despite appearances, this girl could take down monsters over level 80.
Just a light smack feels like a cute gesture.
“What?”
“How dare a human… just go all out?!”
“You’re here because you lost to me.”
“…No! I’m here to get the Darkness Crystal, okay?”
[Oh, is that how it was?]
[Lolololololol]
[No wonder Devil and Yena were team-up despite having no relation]
[So cute lol]
[Doesn’t Devil have an easy time getting Darkness Crystals?]
[If those two end up on the same team, it would be hilarious lol]
[At that age, if you’re strong, you’re interested in everyone]
[For real lol]
[Strong and pretty older sister? Can’t resist that lol]
[That’s exactly Lily’s type.]
“Lily? Isn’t she that famous human lately?”
The Devil glanced at the chat window and looked up at Yena.
Even while grumbling, it was obvious he was interested.
After all, he applied for a battle with Yena just to stir things up, having heard she was friends with Lily.
So, after the battle, he casually asked about Lily.
He probably thought his pure curiosity didn’t show, but…
‘It’s all showing.’
Yena flashed a playful smile.
“Why? Are you interested? Want me to introduce you?”
“W-What?! Don’t talk nonsense! It’s just because she’s strong! Her looks don’t matter!”
“Really~?”
“Seriously!”
[LOLLOLLOLLOLLOL]
[Lily is pretty, that’s for sure]
[The girl is kinda… awkward…]
[I can already see the future, Devil…]
[TTTT]
[Leo would fit her age better, though]
[LOLOLOL]
[Let’s see what we can do about Leo since the penalties are similar, LOL]
“Hmm… But I never said she was pretty.”
“…Huh?”
“Why? Does Lady Lily look super pretty to you?”
Silence.
A face turning red beneath messy hair.
The chat window is flooded with LOLs like crazy.
“Shut up, everyone!”
[Everyone, shut up~]
[LOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOL]
“It’s not something to get mad about, right?”
[For real, LOL]
[Stop teasing her, you crazy trolls, LOL]
[She’s still in middle school, LOL]
[LOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOL]
“Sorry, but I can’t give away Lily. It’s my duty as Baby Lily’s… shall we say? ‘Obligation’…”
Yena stopped laughing, wiping away tears.
Time to stop teasing her slowly.
At this rate, she’ll get upset.
“Alright! Let’s wrap up the chit-chat here! Now, let’s select the trial teams~”
“……”
[Cluck cluck cluck cluck cluck]
[Take your seats]
[LOLLOLLOL]
[Clap clap clap clap]
[Let’s go]
[Devil, smile, it’s a broadcast]
[Crazy, LOL]
■
Donations were pouring in like crazy.
In fact, like a Twitch stream, they couldn’t even thank everyone individually and were just receiving them.
No clue what to do with all this.
“Hmm…”
How did they handle it in the past?
Leaning back in the chair, she drifted back to the past.
Going back to the past.
‘…Rescue activities?’
As a Saintess, performing roles like healing or subjugation brought me sponsorship money. The justification was somewhat excessive, stating it was a ‘fundraising to honor the noble and great intentions of the Saintess,’ but in reality, it was just mercenary work. I merely switched between being a healer and a subjugator. Nobles asked for my help, and I obliged. Then, the sponsorship money came in.
At that time, I wasn’t prioritizing money at all, and I didn’t encounter any issues in life without spending it. Because of this, I used the money to help children in impoverished areas or to improve the living standards of the poor. If funds were tight, I personally engaged in rescue activities, including healing, even on my days off.
“Hmm…”
I wonder how it is now. Money is needed to maintain life, but that doesn’t mean I’m demanding too much. At this rate, I should be able to escape my cramped house and secure an adequate living environment. I’m not thinking of indulging in the wealth and fame like other nobles or modern-day tycoons.
“Rescue activities… might be a bit risky.”
The reason I used to help in slums or assist the poor was that I had the strength and position to protect myself. However, now, there’s almost nothing left of that. No, it’s practically nonexistent. Due to my status, I’m a foreigner whose origins are unknown, and unlike modern people, my appearance is too outstanding. I must consider that venturing into areas lacking in safety could lead to significant trouble.
“…I should just order delivery.”
It’s not that I’m too lazy to go outside. Anyway, that’s that. For now, I’ll think about that problem later and logged into Twitch.
Between the purple background and the white background, countless broadcasts were visible. I always feel this way, but so many broadcasters are streaming again today. Among them, the top-tier ranks consist of tens of thousands, with the current number one on Twitch boasting an incredible 110,000 viewers.
Indeed, the broadcast content is Deoen. They were fighting some colossal boss, and judging by the movements with the sword and the numerous people around, they seem to be quite a high-level ranker.
‘I wonder if this person will participate in the mock siege war.’
With expectations in mind, I immediately turned my gaze sideways.

Yena (yenaaaaa)
Just Chatting
“Oh.”
It’s Yena’s broadcast.
The thumbnail shows Yena babbling away in front of a huge panel.
Next to her is a small child I’ve never seen before.
So cute.
For some reason, it feels like she’d get along well with Leo.
I clicked on the thumbnail to catch the broadcast.
─…So! First of all, the Grand General is indeed Lady Lily~
─I don’t think so. No matter how pretty, I mean, even if Lily is good, becoming the Grand General is a stretch.
─Why not? Isn’t someone like Lady Lily enough? Am I the only one who thinks so?
They’re talking about me.
They’re even discussing the position of the Grand General, who is the top among generals.
[LOL]
[Lily at this level is undeniable]
[For real, LOL]
[Lily… is that a bit too much with the three captains around?]
[The three captains are too prominent, kind of.]
[Leo and Black are confirmed anyway]
[Reblocho is the correct faction]
[Choco?]
[Hmm, rather than Choco, it should be Lily, LOL]
[Spear vs. Twin Spears; it’s a rival situation but isn’t Choco better in terms of skill?]
[Are you saying Lily is above Choco?]
─Hey~ You guys are over-interpreting things too much~ It’s just about deciding who matches well, not who does better. I might actually become one, you know?
─You?
[Traffic Light donated 5,000 won.]
─?
[?]
[Eh?]
[?]
[Lol?]
[That’s a bit, LOL]
[Yena Land…]
The chat is flooded with question marks.
Yena is pressing down on the Devil’s head with one hand while holding the camera with the other.
Her pretty face is highlighted by her two sparkling red eyes.
─Clear those hooks out.
[¿]
[!]
[¿]
[¿¿¿¿]
[Lololololol]
[^7]
“Hmm. It’s not like Yena deserves this treatment…”
I don’t know how others might think, but Yena’s skills are very impressive.
Leaving aside the technical aspects, the fact that she mimicked the spear’s roar in one go deserves high praise.
After much deliberation, I decided to recharge for a donation.
I should let her know about this.
Thanks to Yena, my YouTube is doing well too.
