His name is Pizarro.

One of Otto de Scuderia’s henchmen.

A traitor to the world.

A rare enemy who accelerated Otto’s corruption and the downfall of the Lota territory.

This despicable man has amassed a vast fortune while dazzling Otto with flattery and pandering.

More recently, he’s been siphoning much of his wealth out of the country and aligning himself with the enemy, the Sorun territory.

Why?

To sell the dying Lota to the Sorun.

He was going to suck on the honeydew until the end.

‘That asshole.’

Otto’s face contorted upon seeing Pizarro.

Pizzaro was a character that evoked all sorts of his irritation and anger.

What if you tried to do something?

[Notification: Pizarro disagrees with you!]

[Notification: Pizarro disagrees with you!]

[Notification: Pizarro disagrees with you!]

Your action is canceled with a message like the one above.

The reason was simple.

Pizzaro’s position in the territory is too large and his dominance over Otto is too great.

Of course, Pizzaro’s opposition doesn’t have a coercive effect.

The players could go against his wishes.

However, there’s a price to pay.

‘He’ll get in the way of everything, and if you disagree with him three times, he’ll try to assassinate you.’

What if you want to get rid of Pizarro?

Game over.

The moment Pizarro dies, the spies he’s planted will incite the people to rebel.

The Sorun territory’s army also attacked at that time.

This makes him a very annoying and demanding presence for the player.

“No, my lord. What do you mean by releasing the food?”

Pizarro approached the throne.

“They’re starving because they’re lazy and incompetent, so how can you take responsibility for them, my lord? Those people are ungrateful beings. Even if you give them grace, they won’t even know it’s grace and will demand more food.”

Then, a familiar notification popped up.

[Notification: Pizzaro disagrees with you!]

However Otto, who had been in this situation countless times before, didn’t bat an eye and cut through Pizzaro’s objections.

“My decision doesn’t change.”

“Yes…?”

“As a lord, I will distribute food to the starving people of my territory.”

“No, my lord. What’s wrong with you all of a sudden? You’re going to give the pigs….”

“Enough.”

Otto interrupted Pizarro.

“Say no more. That is my order as your lord.”

“M-My lord?”

“This concludes our meeting this morning. That is all.”

With that, Otto rose from his throne.

“And you, Camille.”

Otto turned to Camille.

“Come with me. I have something to tell you.”

“Yes, my lord.”

Then a notification popped up.

[Notification: You have ignored Pizarro’s opinion!]

[Notification: You have offended Pizarro!]

[Notification: Pizarro’s mood is getting worse!]

I ignored the notifications and left the palace with Camille.

‘I don’t care how bad it makes you feel.’

Otto didn’t care about Pizarro at all.

Why?

Because he knew all too well how to cook Pizarro.

* * *

“This… This this…!”

Pizarro shuddered with rising anger.

“Look, Pizarro. Calm down.”

“Are you all right?”

“Quench your anger.”

The treacherous servants flocked to Pizarro’s side, whispering one word after another.

“You must be embarrassed.”

“Embarrassed…?”

Pizarro’s eyes widened.

“This is nothing to be embarrassed about, it’s just ridiculous! ridiculous!”

Upon hearing Pizarro’s voice raised, the servants flinched and shuddered.

“Suddenly, you’re rationing the food, without consulting us! How can you do this? Ha! I’m gonna…”

Pizarro struggled to control the words that were about to spill out of his mouth.

There was no way he was going to openly curse his lord in front of so many eyes and ears.

‘Whatever that bastard has done wrong, he’s done it badly, and he dares to disregard my opinion, so we’ll see.’

Pizarro gritted his teeth and stormed out of the palace.

Thinking that Otto, whom he considered his puppet, had gotten out of control, he decided that he would have to fix that habit once and for all….

* * *

‘First, I need to get Camille on my side.’

Camille was the only person who could protect Otto.

He was also the only character who had the potential to grow into a hero unit in a place where there wasn’t a single useful person.

Up until now, he’d been stuck cleaning up Otto’s shit.

“What were you thinking, why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

Camille asked Otto as they arrived at the lord’s office.

“Why….”

Otto mulled over the words with a bitter smile.

“To live?”

“Yes?”

“At this rate, my head is going to… Ack!”

Otto let out a lone scream.

Whoa!

The chair shattered into pieces as soon as he sat down.

It was caused by one of the effects of the <Wretched Bastard> curse.

“Ah… I didn’t see that coming. Aah!”

Otto grumbled, while clutching his hip and groaning.

“…….”

Camille clamped his mouth shut in disbelief upon seeing Otto like that.

“Now, where were we?”

“At this rate….”

“My head is going to be blown off.”

Otto smiled in embarrassment and Camille said

“Why did you suddenly think of that?”

“I don’t know why.”

Otto replied.

“Sooner or later there will be a rebellion, the estate will go bankrupt, we’ll be invaded from Sorun, or a horde of monsters will come from the western forests to wipe us out. Worst case scenario, I’ll be assassinated.”

“If you know that….”

“Better late than never.”

“…….”

“Let’s just say I’ve come to my senses.”

“It’s already too late.”

Camille said in a stern tone.

“If you’ve come to your senses, you should pack your bags and flee right now. It’s already too late. Our Lota is already doomed, there’s nothing you can do now….”

“Brother.”

Otto blurted out.

“……!”

Camille froze in shock.

Brother.

That’s what Otto de Scuderia had called Camille when he was child.

It was a nostalgic title for Camille.

* * *

There was only a four-year age gap between Otto and Camille.

The previous lord was concerned that Otto, who had lost his mother and was an only child, would be lonely.

So Otto and Camille spent their childhood together as if they were real siblings.

‘Brother!’

‘Young Master, you can’t call me that!’

‘No! I want to call you brother!’

‘No way, Young master, if you call me that, I will get yelled at!’

‘Then I’ll only call you that when we’re alone, can’t you do that too?’

‘Th-that’s….’

‘Brother! Brother!’

‘Ugh.’

‘Hehe! I have a big brother! Hehehe!’

However, as Otto grew up, he gradually became sulky.

He was jealous of Camille, who had great swordsmanship, talent, and intelligence.

And when he became the lord and began to decline in earnest and the two became forever distant.

As a result, the fond memories of their childhood have long since become memories that only Camille longs for.

“Why are you calling me that all of a sudden?”

“Help. I need your help.”

Otto begged Camille.

“I know things are hard, and I know how many terrible things I’ve done.”

Otto felt a little guilty as he said it.

‘Shit. It’s not me, it’s that asshole Otto.’

It was Otto de Scuderia, the game character, who did all the bad things, not me Kim Do-jin, the gamer.

“Please give me one last chance. A chance to make up for what I’ve done.”

“But….”

“Please, brother.”

The title of big brother was one of the commands that could turn Camille into an ally.

Camille cherished his childhood memories with Otto more than anyone else, so he couldn’t help but be swayed by the title.

“Trust me once more, I’ll never let you down again. Please give me a chance to be a son that my late father would not be ashamed of.”

Otto entered the second command that would make Camille an ally.

The Previous Lord.

A person considered as the greatest lord in the history of the Lota territory.

A father figure to Camille.

“You haven’t forgotten father’s will, have you?”

On his deathbed, the previous Lord left the following will for Camille.

Take good care of Otto… I… ask you to do so. Camille… my son… I ask you… take care of your brother… well.

…as said.

Burrrr!

Camille shuddered.

‘It’s okay.’

By the way he looked, Otto knew that the commands had worked.

<Brother> and <Father> were the commands that turned Camille into an ally.

How did he know this?

There’s an item called <Otto’s Diary>.

It’s on the last shelf of the bookshelf in Otto’s bedroom.

The diary allows the player to learn more about their past, as well as the commands to turn Camille into an ally.

Of course, Kim is the only one who knows how to do this.

Who else would search every inch of the map and read every book on the shelves?

It was the result of three years of research on the character Otto.

“Knight Camille.”

Camille got down to one knee.

“I obey the lord’s command.”

Then a notification popped up.

[Notification: Camille’s mindset has changed!]

[Notification: Camille’s affinity for you has changed from <Despise> to <Sympathy>!]

You can increase your favorability over time.

As long as you’re not at <Despise>, Camille won’t betray you.

“Brother, there’s something I need to do.”

“Just give me the order.”

“Pizarro….”

Otto said.

“Let’s get rid of him.”
