By chance, he obtained a damaged System core and gained the ability to summon players from another world. What a dull thing a long life is. I hope these so-called players can bring me a little fun. With that expectation, Sykes summoned them. As he watched the players explore the sea, trace its history, dig up treasure, and conquer other races… Wait, is something wrong here? Sykes: I’m a poor little thing? Are you talking about the merfolk lord who rules the entire Sea of Death? Players: Don’t say it, we all understand (covering our mouths as we cry). Fly bravely, baby! Mom will always be by your side! Sykes: … Sykes: My lifelong ambition is to conquer the world? How come I don’t know that? Players: (throwing open the window) Look, this is the kingdom I conquered for you. Sykes: …Wait, isn’t this the neighboring giant octopus’s territory? #AnOtherworldlyMerfolkKnowsNothingAboutTheFourthDisaster# #AfterSummoningPlayersIWasForcedToBecomeTheSeaKing# #NotThatSeaKing,ThisSeaKing# A fun and easygoing gaming adventure in another world.
