p>Compared to the Cow n, the Pig n had better leadership.


    Uma was able to do what he did by demonstrating power that the Cow n couldn’t understand.


    There were a few who went against his will, of course, but persuasion, intimidation, and purges consolidated power.


    As a result, there were no unexpected rebellions on the day of the incident, unlike with the Pig n and Gullinbursti.


    ‘But in the end, Uma was captured, including Apis’ incarnation and the other cows.’


    I wonder if someone would save Uma.


    Even if they don’t go rescue him, will they continue his will?


    Will they cut ties with Uma and ask for forgiveness from the 12-point alliance?


    The opinions of the remaining leaders were divided.


    At this time, the Cow n was in two factions — between rescuing Uma or not.


    When Hwang Jiho briefly exined this, the noisy leaders who seemed to have lots of thoughts began to listen in silence.


    Tiger n [Tiger-nim] “We decided not to engage in each their death or rescue if they only work within the territory of the Cow n.


    Rooster n [Chicken That Will Fly From Mt. Gyeryong] “So you’re not going to help the opposition faction drive out their former leader.”


    Tiger n [Tiger-nim] “Unshamefully, the self-proimed opposition made their intent known to cooperate with me, but I have no intention of getting involved.”


    Hwang Jiho said coldly.


    Tiger n [Tiger-nim] “Most of the cows from the opposition implicitly followed Uma’s will. There’s no reason to intervene because the traitors are cutting their own flesh by causing a stir.”


    Hwang Jiho’s distrust of the Cow n was deep-rooted.


    He could trust, even by a speck, Gullinbursti who lived abroad for a long time and was almost killed by his fellow pigs.


    However, it was difficult to believe the self-proimed opposition of the Cow n who would’ve reaped benefits regardless if Uma seeded or not.


    Hwang Jiho seemed to think that it wouldn’t be so bad if the Cow n was extinguished like this.


    ‘But we can’t leave one spot empty for a long time. The 12-point alliance’s symbolism has to be maintained.’


    Even so, it’s difficult to find a royal lineage to rece the Cow n.


    The members of the 12-point alliance are all situated in Korea.


    If the alliance begins to copse, the strength of the boundary they create will also weaken.


    Of course, we prepared for that in advance.


    Tiger n [Tiger-nim] “Well, no matter what direction things take, the result will be the same. After the infighting of the traitors, a proper new leader will take over.”


    Hwang Jiho looked at me with a faint expression.


    Jeokho had a simr look on his face.


    When I exined it to the tigers, they collectively said “Why would you go to such extents for something like that!”


    Rat n [This Kkeodori received the Best Designer of the Year Award] “Hwangho must’ve dealt with it. Why don’t you tell us? We’ve worked together on this one too!”


    Rabbit n [DMR] “If it were me, I wouldn’t tell a rat like you either. Wait, I don’t know what it is too!”


    Dragon n [Respected By Nephew, Full-Level Cheongryong] “The Tiger n safely fended off this great incident. I’m sure they patched things up.”


    Snake n [Finished Shedding LOL] “I’m good since the stupid idiot who received my order is safe. Anything else is up to everyone.”


    Dog n [My Dog Fur is Expensive] “Phew, I believed in Hwangho, but I was a little scared that he would say that he was going to destroy the Cow n. The boundary falters when a spot bes vacant.”


    From the conversation, it seems like the heads will leave the traitors, the Cow n and Pig n, to the Tiger n.


    It’s only natural because the tigers had the greatest influence in this case.


    ‘Thanks to the n head who cooperated, the Tiger n easily took initiative.’


    Except for the Tiger n and the two traitors, six of the nine ns cooperated with each other,


    Seodol and Ok Toyeon blocked Nabiryeong at the yers’ Association.


    Cheongryong led the Dragon n and fought against people of royal lineage at the school’s east gate.


    The head of the Snake n gave scales to keep Bang Yoonseob from beingpletely corrupted.


    Jecheondaesung overpowered Jogangryeob and prevented Eungwang High from being covered in frost.


    The head of the Dog n fought against the Cow n in the bamboo forest and helped restore Eungwang High’s boundary.


    ‘We could’ve asked for Heukma’s help since they’re still indebted, but I decided to save it for future scenarios.’


    I wanted to prevent Heukma and Hwang Jiho from joining hands just in case.


    If Heukma was confirmed to be a non-traitor, the biggest victim in the Demon World scenario would be her.


    Likely, Heukma and the Horse n wouldpletely copse.


    In that scenario, it would be best to hide the alliance from the enemy’s eyes.


    Sheep n [No Nightmare] “There must be a lot of royal lineages who cooperated in the incident at the Tiger n’s territory. I think even the golden boar is brought out by Hwangho.”


    Rooster n [Chicken That Will Fly From Mt. Gyeryong] “Yeah. I think the new recruit has a connection with Hwangho. Well, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to set foot here.”


    The head of the Sheep and Rooster ns conversed.


    From the standpoint of the ns who didn’t help in this case, it was still noticeable.


    The longer the conversation, the more information was revealed.


    Rooster n [Chicken That Will Fly From Mt. Gyeryong] “Isn’t this a post-mortem rather than a ce to punish a traitor?”


    Horse n [More-Sensitive-Than-Usual Heukma] “You said it.”


    Rooster n [Chicken That Will Fly From Mt. Gyeryong] “I guess I wasn’t entrusted because I wasn’t there. Well, I couldn’t help anyway because I was busy!”


    If he couldn’t have helped anyway, why is he expressing regret?


    Dog n [My Dog Fur is Expensive] “Why are you so busy when you’re stuck in the mountains?”


    Rooster n [Chicken That Will Fly From Mt. Gyeryong] “Can’t you see my nickname? I’m gonna fly.”


    Dragon n [Respected By Nephew, Full-Level Cheongryong] “Chickens can’t usually fly though, right?”


    Rooster n [Chicken That Will Fly From Mt. Gyeryong] “We can, for like, uhh, ten seconds? Haha ;;;”


    Pig n [Serves Northern Europe’s Most Handsome – The Golden Wild Boar] “Anyone could get ten seconds of air time if they jump high though…”


    Rooster n [Chicken That Will Fly From Mt. Gyeryong] “Shut up new recruit.”


    Snake n [Finished Shedding LOL] “Ah —”


    Dog n [My Dog Fur is Expensive] “Where’s the monkey? Why’s he not talking?”


    Rooster n [Chicken That Will Fly From Mt. Gyeryong] “Ma’am, are you crazy? Do you want to fight?”


    Then, the Sheep n’s head cut off the nonsense.


    Sheep n [No Nightmare] “There’s something that bothered me about the Rooster n saying something about ‘trust.’ There’s more than one head that’s very close to the origin of the head of the Cow and Pig ns. Can you trust them?”


    The Sheep n’s leader made a good point.


    He’s referring to Jecheondaesung.


    ‘I knew someone would point it out, but I didn’t expect the Sheep n.’


    The head of the Sheep n wasn’t talkative, but they must’ve been listening.


    They dozed offst meeting though.


    Besides, I don’t think they remembered the existence of a traitor.


    Jecheondaesung answered.


    Monkey n [Strongest in the Universe, Jecheondaesung] “I proved my innocence to Hwangho. I helped in this case. I caught Bajie and handed him over to the Tiger n.”


    Sheep n [No Nightmare] “Just because you’re innocent now doesn’t mean you have zero chance of betrayal. There mighte a time when you’d feel sorry for Jogangryeob and sympathize with him.”


    The other leaders were rattled at the Sheep n’s cold words.


    Horse n [More-Sensitive-Than-Usual Heukma] “Why is he making good points today?”


    Dog n [My Dog Fur is Expensive] “Is he sleep-talking right now?”


    Snake n [Finished Shedding LOL] “Possibly possessed by a superior being.”


    They were surprised not by the content of his words but because it was the head of the Sheep n saying those things.


    No matter how serious the topic, these n heads never change.


    Monkey n [Strongest in the Universe, Jecheondaesung] “That’s correct. Hwangho was also wary of me until the end. But if I betray the alliance, the <i>gingoju</i> goes to his hand.”


    At the mention of the mythical headpiece, the Sheep n no longer refuted.


    No matter how powerful Jecheondaesung is, having the gingoju is like having him in the palm of one’s hand.


    Rabbit n [DMR] “Then we’ll be fine as long as Hwangho’s good! If you guys get close, you’re not allowed to go easy on him if he betrayster on!”


    Tiger n [Tiger-nim] “You think this body will let a traitor go?”


    Dog n [My Dog Fur is Expensive] “He probably won’t. Even if he’s generous.”


    Jeokho’s gaze lowered at the word “generous.”


    Jeokho would be ufortable if this topic continues.


    The head of the Sheep n sighed as if he had no intention of digging any further.


    Sheep n [No Nightmare] “Phew, that’s a relief. It doesn’t matter if you fight without me and betray each other. As long as it’s not me!”


    Dog n [My Dog Fur is Expensive] “Funny. You say you don’t care but you question like that?”


    Sheep n [No Nightmare] “The spirit of nightmares is getting stronger these days, so it will be difficult if the 12-point alliance’s boundary breaks down.”


    The sudden mention of nightmares made the atmosphere go cold more than the mention of the traitors.


    ‘It was brought up during thest meeting too.’


    Even the traitor Uma was wary of nightmares.


    The heads of the ns were scrambling to stay alert.


    Snake n [Finished Shedding LOL] “Suddenly talking about nightmares.”


    Rooster n [Chicken That Will Fly From Mt. Gyeryong] “You mean Insomnium, right??? Should I not go outside?”


    Horse n [More-Sensitive-Than-Usual Heukma] “Ah… I guessed it from your conversation name, but I pretended not to see it.”


    Rabbit n [DMR] “Ah, me too! ??”


    Rat n [This Kkeodori received the Best Designer of the Year Award] “I doubt it.”


    Rabbit n [DMR] “?—?”


    Some leaders were still being yful, but I felt the nervousness as the texts shook little by little.


    The existence of nightmares that threaten their true names must terrify the heads.


    The Sheep n’s leader spoke again.


    Sheep n [No Nightmare] “I’m ready. Nightmares can’t enter my territory. You know?”


    Dog n [My Dog Fur is Expensive] “No, that’s unfair! You’re making me feel bad.”


    Horse n [More-Sensitive-Than-Usual Heukma] “Ha… I’m not sleeping tonight.”


    Amid the flood ofints from the heads, Gullinbursti asked cautiously.


    Pig n [Serves Northern Europe’s Most Handsome – The Golden Wild Boar] “Uhm, you say nightmares can’t enter the Sheep n’s territory. Does that mean you can feel its existence beyond the magic circle?”


    Sheep n [No Nightmare] “Yup.”


    Pig n [Serves Northern Europe’s Most Handsome – The Golden Wild Boar] “…So where is the nightmare?”


    Where is the nightmare?


    All heads must be curious about this.


    ‘The head of the Sheep n has been concerned about it since thest meeting. It’s possible that he identified its whereabouts.’


    Nightmare is one of the greatest variables in this world.


    Knowing where it is would greatly help the next ns.


    All those present in the meeting listened intently.


    After a brief silence, the head of the Sheep n replied.


    Sheep n [No Nightmare] “Not telling.”


    The head of the Sheep n didn’t change.
