I Became a Commander in a Crappy SF Game.

Ch.588No Such Thing as Eternal Allies or Enemies (3)

Of course, since the Magellan Clan didn’t provide more detailed information than that.

Most speculations remained just that—mere “speculations.”

Even while receiving support from the Magellan Clan, the prevailing attitude within the Blizzard Clan was “whatever works is good enough.”

—————————————–

<Notice: Clan created, please direct all inquiries through the announcement post>

-[Now it finally begins]

-[Our clan is being widely discussed in the gallery, so we can start our activities in earnest]

-[Thanks]

-[Thank you]

-[Wow, it’s finally starting]

-[Now my dream begins~]

-[My dream~]

—————————————–

Eventually, with the mindset of “who cares as long as the results are good,” they began to accept their uncomfortable cohabitation(?) with the Magellan Clan.

==========

And seeing the Blizzard Clan behave this way, the upper echelon of the Magellan Clan was breathing deep sighs of relief.

—————————————–

<Notice: Blizzard Clan Development Plan>

-[The Blizzard Clan seems to be accepting us much faster than expected]

-[Well, we’ve been giving them one-sided help with operations, but haven’t received anything in return yet]

-[Ah, that’s true]

-[So it’s only natural they’d be friendly toward us]

-[For real lol]

—————————————–

This had already been discussed among the Magellan Clan executives.

Although they had collapsed the May Clan, which had been a leader of the anti-Humanity faction, and significantly reduced the strength of the remaining users—

While they had actively participated in Humanity’s policies, they absolutely had no intention of living as Humanity’s eternal puppets.

—————————————–

<Notice: Blizzard Clan Development Plan>

-[Anyway, we need to execute this plan properly]

-[For real]

-[We’ve already succeeded in creating something better than the May Clan that was destroyed after bowing once to those Humanity bastards]

-[I think we just need to properly guide the Blizzard Clan to grow and establish itself](Mona Lisa)

-[Ooooh]

-[Excellent!]

-[Huh?]

-[You’re not going to make them a puppet clan?]

-[They have people like Snow Leopard and Raksha, and that guy ‘Snow’ who acts as Raksha’s Adjutant](Mona Lisa)

-[If we try to suppress them, we’ll only end up undermining their strengths](Mona Lisa)

-[Ah, I definitely agree with that]

-[Well, one of them is ranked #1 individually, and the other is in a clan ranked 5th, so that makes sense]

-[They already seem to be doing quite well on their own]

-[So Blizzard is basically being treated as a sub-clan?]

-[Yeah]

—————————————–

They were putting in effoooort to turn the Blizzard Clan, which they had secretly supported from behind, into a sort of “Magellan 2nd Division” to deploy in a potential future war against Humanity.

Of course, some users expressed opposition or raised questions about this policy.

—————————————–

<Notice: Blizzard Clan Development Plan>

-[But why that Raksha guy of all people?]

-[Golden Mane and us have quite a deep history of bad blood, so why help them?]

-[Sure, Golden Mane is really strong, but even all of Blizzard combined doesn’t reach 5,000 members]

-[Does that even matter?]

—————————————–

When questions arose about why they should support Raksha, who had been quite hostile to them, and whether it made sense to provide such extensive yet secretive support to the Blizzard Clan with fewer than 5,000 members,

Mona Lisa and other executives showed their disdain, asking how long they would continue to cower before Raksha.

—————————————–

<Notice: Blizzard Clan Development Plan>

-[Look, it’s true we’ve been beaten by Raksha](Mona Lisa)

-[But does that mean we’re inferior to that bastard?](Mona Lisa)

-[Well…]

-[No, it doesn’t]

-[Then that settles it](Mona Lisa)

-[They say there are no eternal friends in this world, but there are no eternal enemies either](Mona Lisa)

-[Ah]

-[Besides, you seem to have forgotten that even though Blizzard Clan is a coalition, Snow Leopard is the nominal clan leader]

-[Raksha has already lost two clans he belonged to, so he wouldn’t want to be the representative]

-[There’s that Golden Mane fanboy]

-[He’s in the minority so it doesn’t matter lol]

—————————————–

Although there was plenty of other chatter and complaints about the Blizzard Clan plan,

After all those arguments were thoroughly refuted, our Magellan Clan finally overcame all obstacles and challenges and was able to officially operate their “2nd Division”(?) Blizzard Clan.

==========

Of course, the final concern raised during all that “chatter”—”Won’t Humanity eventually find out about this?”—was quite a realistic problem.

But unlike in the past, and contrary to what most users thought, the Magellan Clan was now somewhat smarter.

While they deployed public opinion manipulation teams to defend the Blizzard Clan behind the scenes…

—————————————–

Title: Yo, Magellan Clan is straight-up trashing Blizzard lol

Author: Anonymous

They said they had deep grudges against Raksha, and now they’re trashing his entire clan

As expected from the people who were getting cursed in the gallery

Comments:

-[So transparent, so transparent]

-[Consistent behavior lol]

-[Is there really a need to attack them like this when Raksha isn’t even the official representative?]

-˪[He may not be the representative, but he’s a co-founder](Author)

-˪[What are you?]

-˪[Get lost, asshole](Author)

—————————————–

They simultaneously employed a two-faced strategy by openly criticizing the Blizzard Clan in public, subtly confusing the eyes of other regional clans and users.

However, one problem with this approach was that…

—————————————–

<Notice: Blizzard Clan Development Plan>

-[Since our public opinion team is badmouthing Blizzard, another public opinion team is now working to normalize Blizzard’s reputation]

-[LOLOLOLOL]

-[The final enemy becomes oneself…!]

-[Is this what they call a masquerade or something?]

-[Yeah]

—————————————–

Apart from other clans getting involved in this matter, Magellan Clan members ended up shooting at each other.

“Hey, this doesn’t seem right.”

“But we don’t have any other options.”

Both the Magellan Clan and the Blizzard Clan, fully aware of the situation, felt an indescribable strange sensation watching the current state of affairs.

Of course, since abruptly stopping this would raise suspicion among other users,

The WWE performance by our Magellan Clan continued for over a week.

As a result…

Title: Too noisy, blocking time

You guys are getting too heated

Cool your heads and come back

Comments:

-[The moderator is doing his job!]

—————————————–

Users who were performing the WWE were massively blocked from the gallery for periods ranging from one day to a maximum of one week by regular moderators like Icarus who knew nothing about what was happening.
