Chapter 669 – Helena
“What does that mean?”
Helena sighs and snaps her fingers lightly.
Intricately crafted magic waves flow from her fingertips, instantly conveying information to our minds.
Planet Zephyria was made up of numerous countries like Earth in the past.
Among those countries, Helena, who was born in the Republic of Nofrik, was a genius unprecedented in the history of planet Zephyria.
Not just a genius, but a transcendent genius beyond the scope of humans.
Helena’s genius was extraordinary from her childhood.
Helena’s parents, who were successful entrepreneurs, naturally recognized her specialness and provided full support.
And Helena became the greatest scientist in Zephyria’s history at a young age when she was not even 20 years old.
It was no exaggeration to say that the development of Planet Zephyria was led by Helena alone.
Among them, her greatest achievement is that she discovered the mysterious energy called mana and opened the era of magic engineering.
Magical circuits, new materials, aerospace, artificial intelligence, new energy, links, anti-aging, etc… So many research achievements that it is hard to believe that they came from one person are constantly pouring out of Helena’s laboratory.
The by-products of Helena’s research led to the development of the world beyond the family’s wealth and the nation.
Helena’s father entered politics on the back of her achievements and popularity and rose to the position of Prime Minister of the Republic of Nofrik.
And Helena establishes a world unified government based on her overwhelming technological power.
Even when the world was experiencing such upheaval, Helena’s only interest was research.
She did her research on anything that piqued her curiosity.
“I had to quit research at that point…”
In the end, her genius succeeded in artificially creating life called the realm of God.
That was the artificial life form “Rus”.
“Ruth… Do you mean the devil?”
“Yes, at the time, I didn’t even think about how my research would be used… And what impact it would have on Zephyria.”
Helena, who lived a closed life only in her laboratory, was shocked to see Ruth being sold as her product.
She knew because she was a researcher.
Although Ruth is said to be an artificial life form created by herself, it is a life form with a personality that is not much different from that of Zephyrian.
She later sought to make this right by seeking out her father, who was now the head of a unified world government.
“Helena, Ruth is Ruth. It’s different from the Zephyrians. Of course, I understand what you’re talking about. But no Zephyrian will welcome that.”
And she found out a shocking fact.
The fact that Zephyria is planning an invasion of the planet Panthera by creating Ruth, a specialized combat weapon.
The planet Zephyria was peaceful, and it was natural that the Zephyrians’ interest turned to the outer space of the planet.
And the planet Panthera, a blue star shining beautifully nearby, was good prey.
It was only then that Helena thought for the first time about the impact of her own research on her Zephiria.
“Father, there’s no need to invade Panthera, right?”
Thanks to the technology developed through Helena’s research, Zephyria had no food, energy, or environmental problems.
In short, you can eat well and live well without invading other planets.
“Helena, the natives of the planet Panthera are uncivilized. Look at the data explored. How poor and harsh they live. Being ruled by the Zephyrians, who have superior technology, is like a blessing for them.”
Helena is said to be the goddess of magic engineering, and she had some influence on Zephyrian society.
However, Helena lived only in her institute and did not know much about the world, let alone her politics.
Since public opinion was already overwhelmingly tilted toward ruling the planet Panthera, she had no choice but to sit back and watch.
Zephyria’s invasion of the planet Panthera went smoothly.
It is a planet that only uses carriages as a means of transportation.
There is no way he can be a match for Zephyria, who has advanced into space.
Of course, there were superhumans in Panthera that could not be ignored, but there were also superpowers in Zephyria.
The Zephyrians, who brought with them numerous space battleships, conquered the nations of the planet Panthera based on their overwhelming weapons and technological prowess.
Those blue-skinned Zephyrians were called demons by the Pantherans,
Ruth, a grotesque monster and artificial life form created solely for war as a servant of the demons, was called the devil.
From Zephyria’s perspective, I thought it would be better to be called a devil who could instill fear in the enemy rather than a Ruth.
In this way, Ruth gradually came to be called a devil even in Zephyria.
Zephyria had no doubt about victory.
Rather than talking about war, meetings in Congress continued day after day about how to dominate and develop the planet Panthera.
And Zephyria’s plan was foiled by the appearance of a transcendent being.
It was Terra.
Through her early explorations, Zephiria knew that giant creatures called dragons inhabited the planet Panthera.
There was also a history of hunting several dragons during conquest activities. Although it was a little threatening, I didn’t think it was something that would have an impact on the war.
However, the Terra that suddenly appeared was of a different level.
Neither Zephyria’s cutting-edge military weapons nor the high-ranking awakened were a match for Terra.
Zephyria’s army, which had been on a roll, was annihilated due to the presence of Terra, against whom any attack worked.
Terra didn’t stop there, but left its star and headed to the planet Zephyria.
Zephyria fell into a panic.
A transcendent life form that crosses the universe with its bare body…
Terra arrived at planet Zephyria.
She knew she was coming in Zephiria and made her own preparations, but it was meaningless.
Terra’s breath tore through her earth, and Zephyria’s vaunted space battleship crashed helplessly.
Helena then lost her parents.
Terra did not rest, devastating the land of Planet Zephyria.
She tried to negotiate somehow, but Terra didn’t seem to want to talk.
The word ‘destruction’ appeared in Zephyrian’s mind.
It was Helena who stopped Terra at that time.
“The transcendent being called Terra aroused my desire for research.”
Helena, who was researching Terra, discovered that Terra is related to stars.
“When I uncovered that connection, the star consciousness contacted me. The star consciousness wanted me to become the master of the planet.”
I remember the star consciousness I encountered on Earth and in the zombie world.
‘Are you saying you can’t become a star manager just through simple power? I think the star consciousness also said something like that…’
Helena transformed her world through her research and even created new life.
That genius could not be considered a human standard. The star’s consciousness could have recognized Helena’s genius.
“I thought Terra’s wrath was my Pyrrha’s punishment… But I couldn’t stand to see the destruction of her people.”
In this way, Helena became the owner of the star.
When Helena, who became the owner of the star, appeared, Terra retreated. For the owner of her star, her own planet is her home ground.
Although Helena, who had just become the master of the stars, was weaker than Terra, her Terra is located on the planet Zephyria.
Because Terra left her home planet, she was unable to use her full power on the planet Zephyria.
Terra gave up on destroying Zephyria and began setting up a barrier outside her planet.
Helena could have interfered with Terra, but she didn’t.
Helena felt relieved at Terra’s actions.
Terra’s confinement of her planet meant that she had no further intention of attacking.
The aftermath of Terra’s invasion of her planet was significant.
The ground has become a wasteland where not a single blade of grass can be seen. Terraforming was not difficult with Zephyria’s technology.
However, Zephyrian abandoned the surface and hid underground.
It is because of the trauma on Terra that wiped out 70% of Zephyria’s population.
Since Helena became the master of the stars, it was not difficult for her to create an underground city and stabilize Zephyria.
And as time passed, the fear of Terra gradually faded in the minds of the Zephyrians.
And one word came to mind.
Revenge.
It was Zephyria who invaded first.
However, revenge may be absurd from Terra’s perspective, but humans are originally such animals.
Terra is a scary being.
But Terra is alone.
That’s it.
Now Zephyria had Helena who could deal with Terra.
As for everything other than Terra, Planet Zephyria dominates Planet Panthera.
She said, “Didn’t she say that she can’t really demonstrate her power unless she’s her own star?”
What that means is that just as Terra retreated without being able to destroy Zephyria, it would be meaningless even if Helena went to the planet Pantera despite her opposition.
“It is not impossible to create a passage connecting two planets. Of course, it cannot be done if you are not sure of victory. Connecting two planets also means that even Terra can use its full power on this planet.”
The Zephyrians seem confident that they will win as long as Helena is on par with Terra.
“Of course I didn’t want war. But my opinion was meaningless.”
This is because the public opinion and council of Zephyria were overwhelmingly seeking revenge on Terra.
Zephyrian’s lifespan was dramatically increased thanks to Helena’s anti-aging technology.
Perhaps because of this, the fact that there were many Zephyrians who had memories of losing their families to Terra was also a reason why public opinion was leaning toward her war.
Moreover, even her older brother Hellion, the commander-in-chief of Zephyria’s army, has been scolding her.
