Chapter 105 – 8. Prometheus (2)
“Damn… Isn’t this?”
The new magic system and new technologies left behind by a precious guest who visited Gash in the past were like a new world for many technicians of different races.
It was a guide and lifeline that would lead their technology, which had been stagnant for hundreds of years without further development, to the next level at once, so they held on to that line so desperately and after countless analyzes, studies, and experiments over the past five years, they came up with a system to some extent. They succeeded in catching them and succeeded in making their own achievements, but it was not perfect.
At first, they tried to do it with their own strength.
But the more I went on, the more I realized that it was impossible.
Numerous tribes and numerous experts in each field that were asked to come out within those tribes gathered and put their heads together and studied over and over again, but the more they did, the more it was impossible to come out.
In the end, after a few years, I asked for help from a customer who left this technology behind, but so far there has been no answer.
And it was their self-esteem and self-esteem that were ruined more and more.
The fact that they were not able to properly implement even the minor version, let alone reproduce it, even though all the experts in each field of these numerous races were mobilized for what came from only one person, making them so miserable.
2 years, 3 years passed like that, and now it is 5 years.
Even if it was an unfinished technology, I was able to achieve my own results because I was holding onto the concept that the technology had.
Why did the losers who rule this continent become humans?
The different races picked three major things about it.
Desire, possibility, fertility.
Although they lost to the Orcs in terms of fertility, it wasn’t that big of a difference compared to the non-Monster Orcs, the heterogeneous Orcs.
However, although they may be inferior to Orcs in terms of their basic physical abilities, mankind has easily surpassed Orcs in terms of the possibilities that arise as they train themselves.
Longer lifetime and higher development potential. And higher intellect. And its technology.
Compared to elves, magic lights are behind me. Although they are inferior to the Dwarves in terms of technology, they have all of them integrated into one, and sometimes there are people with magic potential that surpass even the Elves, and sometimes technicians who surpass the Dwarves.
That was the strength of mankind.
That’s why the different races felt a sense of crisis and thus created a tribal union called Gash.
In the first place, they do not all live together here, but spread all over the continent and even spread to other continents, but our heterogeneous tribes are united with each other.
And they agonized over what they lacked most in order to stand against humans.
In each of the numerous parts, each race could be filled with unity, but in the end it boils down to one thing.
When talent is lost, it is difficult to make up for it.
In humankind, talented people with great potential are always picked up from somewhere, but they didn’t.
There are races that have no problem filling the population of okra, but the basic development potential value is terribly lower than that of humans, and other races with high abilities require a very long time to increase the population by that ability.
So, a weapon created to compensate for that point as much as possible. It was a titan, and mankind was not particularly concerned about the titan of the heterogeneous coalition.
After all, if the magic of the World Tree is cut off, it would be a can, so if it was used for defense, it would be impossible to use it for offensive purposes.
It was impossible to use it outside of Gash because of its huge size and powerful power, as the amount of mana it consumed was enormous.
At least that’s how it was ‘until now’.
Gee- Kung! Gee- Kung!
Every time the metal giant took a step during a test walk in the laboratory, the floor thumped and thumped.
Size similar to Titan. But the aspect was completely different.
The titan’s true identity was a fighting golem with a metal armor wrapped around mud and rock, stone and sand, as well as tree roots and vines to hold them together.
It was a weapon that created a space for the operator to enter and battle by giving direct commands in real time from within.
However, this weapon was like a human.
A skeleton made of metal and muscles made of plant vines moved its body.
Skeletons and supports in the form of H-beams or hollow pipes were intricately intertwined and wrapped around the skeletons that mimicked the endoskeleton and exoskeleton. Or, the tree trunks connected as if wrapped around them sometimes contracted and sometimes stretched, moving the giant.
“I’d like to change the material anyway. The kids don’t like it very much. Why don’t you at least use stone for the joints and cast a strengthening spell?”
“Okay…”
After moving for a while, the giant finally stopped moving at the sound of the elves’ ballmen.
On the spot, the giants were dismantled in an instant by the dwarves rushing in from the vicinity, and the connecting parts that connected plants and skeletons were replaced with impromptu carved stone parts on the spot.
There, the elves and other races engrave magic to reinforce it, and the test operation started again.
And as a result, it was clearly noticed that the movement was better than before.
“Okay. Now let’s put on the gloves.”
The dwarves rushed in and began putting armor on the giant’s body, which looked like skeletons and vines.
Soon, a really plausible-looking giant steel knight appeared.
Compared to his previous Titan days, his appearance, which looks ridiculously sleek, has been very cool.
“Let’s move”
Whoa… Cooong!
It was a little slower than before without gloves, but the aircraft still moved without difficulty.
It was a job, and the different races were very excited about it, so they asked me to bring a brass whip, a weapon exclusively for Titans.
Made by twisting and twisting innumerable thin brass wires, this whip is a magic weapon that contains a lot of magic, even though it doesn’t look like it at all.
This whip, which is a combination of flexibility, protection magic, and all kinds of magic, is the optimal shape and structure that was created through countless trials and errors. A weapon with a magic combination.
The reason why Titan’s weapon was designated as this one was for that reason.
Such a historic whip was put in the hands of a new giant, and the giant’s pilot swung the brass whip as he normally did when piloting a Titan.
Bauuuuung and a heavy sound of waves cutting through the air resounded, and the pilot put on a satisfied expression at the faster and more agile response than usual.
I was swinging the brass whip a few more times like that.
“Hmm?”
Feeling a strange vibration, he paused for a while and tried to tell the machine what was wrong, but he returned to continue the experiment.
It also serves as a durability test anyway, so unless it’s really dangerous, ignore it.
Judging by the fact that he was recording the symptoms of the anomaly he was talking about next to him, it seemed that his opinion had not been ignored, and that he was intending to test it until it really broke.
“Well, I heard that Titan was developed by destroying several units in the early days, so is it natural?”
After swinging the whip a few more times, he felt something strange at that moment. Hey, do you think this is dangerous?
“Uh, hey everyone avoid it! Something’s wrong?”
Soft Pacan -!!
The arm that had been wielding the brass whip exploded, and the parts inside him exploded in all directions, creating chaos around them.
Inside the very strong steel giant, he was actually safe, but all the other races around him were avoiding, rolling, and using defensive magic, and it wasn’t a fuss.
After a while, the pilot, who looked around from inside the giant who had lost his balance due to the sudden loss of his arm, was terrified at the sight of these people bleeding and groaning here and there. I couldn’t see it and let out a sigh of relief.
“So. What’s the matter?”
“It was a problem with the connection between metal and stone. Structural improvement is needed for this part.”
“Hagishi, there was a lot of impatience there. Other than that?”
“The grease magic of the joints is too weak. It seems that the power distribution needs to be added or the magic formula improved.”
The dwarves huffed and pondered for a while before opening their mouths.
“That’s right for the dwarves, tell us about our problem first.”
“We need more lightweight gloves and skeletons.”
“Oh yeah… I’ll try harder on that. It’s actually starting again from the beginning.”
Yuria seemed to need more research on the new alloy obtained from the young lady.
And so is the new reinforcement structure.
“Call the dwarves. I need that math or something.”
Years of accidents and wandering around like that.
Finally, the news came that the savior(?) Was coming.
“He’s finally here!!”
“Hurray!!”
Unlike the last time, I had to listen to the sound of regret as much as I thoroughly regretted this side, but even so, I was willing to listen to all requests.
That’s because they were thirsty for new knowledge and skills.
At this rate, the fear of being caught up by humans someday and being pushed out of the race for survival had already risen to the bottom of my chin for a long time.
There were so many powerful and numerous monsters that they gathered like this, but now they have almost disappeared, but they were very strong in resisting together from the humans who hunted them to enslave them from the past.
That’s why I couldn’t be desperate if I wasn’t desperate for this job.
It was a matter of survival and unity.
* * * * *
“Um…”
“…”
YuRia and Roa just let out a sigh.
Should I be happy or sad about this?
Still, as her mother, she couldn’t help but be happy, but as her wife, she couldn’t help but be sad.
“I can’t imagine that Hosea and Joshua developed magic resistance that Yuria doesn’t have…”
However, thanks to that, the chances of her two sons falling victim to suspicious conspiracies like Yuria were reduced even more, so Yuria thought it was fortunate in that respect.
However, it was very sad that I couldn’t share a proper night with Loa.
Silently connected to each other under the blanket, unable to move for fear of the children waking them up. It was just a repeat of the days that were connected to each other, quietly falling asleep and quietly falling in the morning as if nothing had happened.
Even with this, it seemed like they had to restrain themselves as Gash was getting closer, and the two of them adjusted their clothes, putting their regrets behind each other.
“Shall we start the day today as well?”
* * *
Awesome…
“Hmm?”
“Huh?”
YuRia and Roa came down to the first floor of the carriage when it suddenly stopped.
“Nuri? Delis? What’s up?”
“That is…”
Coming out to the driver’s seat, YuRia’s expression slightly frowned.
‘Man tribe… ?’
Being just an elf wasn’t much of a problem.
That the beasts of the lion were blocking the way
‘Why are the beastmen on the road?’
On her own wagon, the pattern of the territory she longed for and the pattern of her own family she made a while ago were drawn in large sizes.
“What happened?”
“For a while, you should follow us, human”
Yuria’s eyebrows furrowed even more at the attitude of the lion beasts.
An attitude that belittles them, as if it was only natural that we should follow them.
It was in many ways incomprehensible.
“I refuse. We are the VIPs who were invited by Gache. Now, this doesn’t cause a diplomatic breakdown, right?”
“That has nothing to do with us, humans. You just have to follow us.”
“…”
Yuria sighed in response and glared at them, softening her emotions.
“In other words, are you saying that what you’re doing now is not the Gash Alliance, but the Beast Tribe, especially the Lion Clan’s dogma?”
“You’re smarter than you think, man.”
“Are you declaring war on Shelton?”
“No, you just have to follow us.”
Effortlessly cooling down the bubbling inside, Yuria opened her mouth to them in a tone that was, in effect, close to her ultimatum.
“Then I ask. Will there be any diplomatic problems for us here even if you guys die?”
“Puha? Killing? You guys? Only humans?”
A gurgling, low-pitched sound began to reverberate around.
In response, Yuria lightly held out her hand and stepped forward, blocking the sound waves around her carriage.
“This is an obvious hostile act.”
“Enmity, it seems that a weak human being only sees this and says hostility, right?”
“… Annoying”
Yuria, whose patience was almost running out, quietly raised his hand.
“Savage beasts…”
When YuRia’s hand, which was lifted up toward the sky, went to the floor, it was just like that!! And all the lions and beasts were pressed flat on the floor! He groaned and groaned, unable to move.
“Did you evaluate me only by looking at the way I looked when I was weak? That’s my everything?”
“Keu, keuuk!?”
There was no change in momentum in the surroundings.
It’s just that enormous pressure is being put only on the lion beasts.
“What is this…”
“You’d better answer straight, beast… I’m sure you asked if you’ve declared war on Shelton. Although I’m a lower rank, I’m a noble in Shelton, and I’m obviously invited as a guest of honor by Gacheu. You’d better answer straight.”
“This, you bastard!! How dare humans do this to us and still be safe!!”
“Wielding force against a different species that did nothing is a clear violation of the agreement…”
To that, Yuria answered with a smirk.
“Powerless… Do you weak beasts call it an exercise of force even after seeing something like this? Can’t it be said that it is an exercise of force only when at least one mountain is blown away?”
“What, what?”
YuRia spread her palms toward the top of the nameless small mountain next to her, and just like that, Kwagang!! And the mountain peaks disappeared without a trace.
“It is not so?”
“…”
It was only then that they realized that even if they were wrong, they had made a big mistake.
They were not at all strong against the little woman in front of them.
It’s just that the dead who are bothered by the future international relations will be twisted, no.
He had pulled the dragon’s nose hair.
“It would be better to set it straight. Otherwise, I will declare war on your clan myself.”
The figure of that little girl felt so big for some reason.
Under such pressure that they could not even breathe, the lions could not even say anything, swallowing only their saliva.
* * *
As her carriage moved towards Gashu again, Yuria let out a sigh as she wrapped her head in pain.
A portrait of her herself?
Besides, she believes that whoever gets her will put this world in her hands…
“Ha… The world really…”
I don’t even like it when you do things on your own, let alone what does this mean to a woman who already has an owner? Even against a mother who already has two children.
I’ve been wanting to be quiet lately, but is this fucking world throwing big candy at me like this?
From what they said, it seemed that this story and my image had already spread across the planet, not just in one or two countries.
“Could Gash be calling me for the same reason as them?”
No. That’s not going to happen.
No matter how much Gashu is not a country with a strong royal authority like a human country, Aileen, who is their representative, is Roa’s aunt, even though she is not related by blood, and she is also invited by Eileen to come as a member of the heterogeneous union. There were times
I am the only one of my people, though I am the villager and I will be the representative of my people.
But I politely declined because I belonged to Loa.
Because my place is next to Roa.
“Yuria… Are you angry?”
“Ah… I’m sorry. I guess you were worried.”
Looking back, Elsa and Liza were also looking at me with fearful expressions, shrunken by my spirit. Above all, Hosea and Joshua seemed a bit afraid, perhaps it was their first time seeing me like that, so I hurriedly relaxed my spirits and stretched out my hands to the children with a smile and opened my arms wide.
“Let’s go to bed… Come here”
“Mom… Are you okay now?”
“It’s okay. Mama’s mad at those stupid beasts, she’s not mad at our sweet son? She’s Zaza Elsa and Lizado.”
The children, who hesitated for a moment, soon came back and were held in YuRia’s arms.
Although it was difficult to bear children at once even with his arms wide open thanks to his small body, he somehow succeeded in bearing all four children.
“It’s okay. Mom is stronger than I thought.”
National unit?
Even with an existence of the size of Nell, the things I’m afraid of and panicked come out like this…
Yuria had the idea that sooner or later she would have to imprint what kind of existence she was in the world.
She knows that it is already too late to cheat on herself, and she has to imprint on the foolish beings living in this world and on the world itself, so she won’t cheat anymore.
Why does she touch herself so much as she just wants to live a quiet life?
“Loa… I changed her mind a little bit”
“Huh?”
“I was going to live quietly like this, and when the children are a little older, I was going to live quietly with Loa, as if I were collecting and sealing the books of Remegeton that were dangerous to this world, but I can’t.”
Roa looked at YuRia and mumbled… And she quietly looked at Yuria.
“I’ll definitely imprint… What it means to touch me.”
“Are you okay?”
“It’s okay. Because the critically ill period, where even the slightest thing goes wrong like in the past, would make you run out of breath, has already passed.”
Yuria prayed that Kishu would not make foolish judgments.
I’m not afraid of antagonizing Kishu.
These are the ones who have helped me. Because she didn’t want to harm Loa’s aunt, Eileen.
But,
If even Gache was on the same business as those messengers, Yuria planned to destroy Gache that same day.
As an example to the world.
