"This world is still very harmonious and loving. Don't always think about scheming and scheming. This isn't a novel, so how can there be so many coincidences and manipulators behind the scenes? Look, isn't this all a misunderstanding?"
Un, this is my conclusion regarding the Siren incident. As expected, there is still true love in the world. We must learn to trust others!
"Meow, Roland, no matter how you try to escape from reality, what will come will come. Open your eyes and take a look. "
The black cat on my shoulder mocked me maliciously.
"Shut up, I am just pretending not to see it!"
Yes, I am escaping from this terrifying reality. The righteous Church of the God of Law actually became a place for Gentlemen to exchange their perverted thoughts.
"… Back then, I was still a normal Dracon. At that time, I had just crawled out of my egg. I fell in love with him at first glance. He was my adoptive mother. His comb was so majestic, his feathers so gorgeous … Later on, I found out that my egg was lost and the person who picked it up used his own poultry to hatch me. "
So, your normal time is only a few minutes after hatching? How ridiculous are you! Also, what is the meaning of the adoptive mother and him? He is obviously a male. Also, since he has a comb, he should be a rooster. It was wrong from the start. It is said that oviparous creatures will treat the first creature they see as their mother. Are you Draconians the same? I have never heard of it before. You are the only one who is unique!
Let me catch my breath first. This fellow really has too many things to complain about. I really can't stop complaining.
"… The great hero Adeceus? Yes, he did have a relationship with a Siren friend of mine, but he isn't some great hero. He is just a hoodlum and a playboy. It is said that more than 20 Sirens have been tricked by him. He is a bastard … We Sirens are really pitiful. We are passionate and lonely by nature. We always have some treasures that we picked up from the sea, but in the end, we are always tricked by those bad men who pretend to be heroes. For example, Saint Cassola, Dragon Knight Edwin … Even if we meet a good man, he will turn into a sloppy uncle in less than 20 years. Then, he will turn into an old man after a short nap, making the rest of our lives miserable. That's why most of us find an island to live on, but it's so lonely that we'll still be tricked. "
Alright, I know that it's hard for you to find someone to vent your frustrations to, but please don't ruin the image of those great heroes in my heart. Why do those great heroes who left their names in history seem like a bunch of emotional swindlers in your eyes? Alright, actually, those stories of stealing divine artifacts and secrets from the Sirens do seem like emotional swindlers who break into a lonely widow's house to swindle her for money and sex.
"… Hmph, that's because you Sirens are too stupid. Look at us Elves, we won't fall in love with a short-lived species. Those short-lived species shouted the slogan 'you only have one life', saying that they didn't need to be restrained and wanted to live a brilliant and free life. Wasn't that another way of saying that they were irresponsible and did whatever they wanted? Just like what you said, even if they met a good one, they would die immediately. No matter how I look at it, it's a tragic ending … However, naive children are an exception. They are so pure and adorable, and their eyes are filled with innocence and trust when they look at me. I can slowly paint the colors I want on this blank drawing board without worrying about it turning bad. I can harvest the fruits when they mature … To us Elves, what is 20 years? As long as we can eat delicious fruits, even if it's a tragedy, I will accept it! "
Hey, is this the police? There's a weird auntie here! Momo, can you stop sneaking glances at me when you say such words? Can you stop drooling! I really feel that it's really dangerous!
"Explosion is an art."
"No, the explosion is just a means to create a safe zone!"
"Hmph, how shallow! As expected, you are just a short-sighted human. No wonder your work is filled with the smell of a third-rate craftsman. Even though it's exquisite and accurate, there isn't a single trace of passion or creativity. "
"I have also seen your so-called artwork. What do you mean by the time and power of the explosion is uncertain? Are you intending to blow yourself up? "
"… This is an insult to our entire Goblin Engineering and Goblin Alchemy. Do you know how we treat those foolish Dwarves who doubt our Goblin art? We kick their buttocks and blow them up!"
Alright, Yingou.Bell, I know that you are excited to be able to escape, but the reason why we saved you is definitely not to allow you to cause destruction. And Grimm! You know that you are a man of action, but if you don't keep your bomb, I will hang you from the ceiling. I mean what I say! And Yingou, if you dare to detonate the alchemy bomb in your hands, I will throw you into Roland's 88th cannon and send you back to prison with a single blast.
The area where the royal prison is located is also in great trouble due to the flood this time. Naturally, the Dwarves who almost lost their lives in the underground prison won't just sit and wait for their deaths.
Without any hesitation, they brought forward their plan to escape from the prison ahead of schedule. The news of the Giant Robot causing havoc in the prison and the prison riot has become the recent headlines. Right now, I can only hope that the secret agents of the royal family are focused on the battlefield and hope that Dasos doesn't fall out with me at this crucial moment. At the very least, he doesn't come looking for me before my plan is completed.
"Old friend, even if you save me this time, don't expect old Lomons to give up on his hobby. Let's spar on the battlefield next time. Old Lomons will return the favor. Also, fallen Gray Dwarf, you are the same. Sooner or later, we will cross hands with each other. "
"Ha, as expected of a smelly and stubborn Shield Dwarf. We should just watch as you drown."
"Hmph, us Shield Dwarves aren't country bumpkins who have never seen water in their entire lives. When old Lomons was hunting Plesiosaurs underwater, you were probably still sucking on your mother's milk."
"Oh oh, there's no need to wait for that day. Let's give it a try now."
Alright, I know that you Shield Dwarves and Gray Dwarves are arch-enemies, but at least think about your newly established relationship as prison mates. Alright, as expected, I can't beat around the bush, so I'll just say it directly. Dwarves, put down that stool and cup and go out to fight! Otherwise, I'll throw you into the cannon barrel and shoot you out too!
I mysteriously feel so tired, as if my mind has been polluted. As expected, I shouldn't have listened to these fellows. I should just continue sighing about the beauty of the world.
"Big Brother Roland, your tea."
"Oh, thank you."
My great-great-great-granddaughter is still the most considerate. Just as I said that, I mysteriously felt that something was off.
"Great-granddaughter and great-grandfather? You sure have a heavy taste. " As expected, this black cat wouldn't let me have a good time. If it wasn't for the fact that she was bound to me, with her identity as an undying old demon and her twisted personality of being unable to see others doing well, she would definitely be a gentleman.
However, her sarcasm made my heart tremble. I was also a little suspicious. Why has this lass become so obedient recently? Also, that System Notice that I can't look at directly also made my heart pound.
However, seeing her smile sweetly as she served tea to her temporary teacher, Diana, I shook my head and dispelled my suspicions.
"She should finally know how to respect her elders. The System has never been reliable. I'm not a cross-dresser, so naturally, Renée wouldn't be blind enough to like me. We look so similar, so wouldn't it be narcissistic for her to like me? "
After hesitating for a moment, I finally spoke.
"Everyone, prepare yourselves. I'm going out to find two people. When I return, I'm afraid that we'll have a tough battle ahead of us. Right, prepare to abandon this place as well. "
That's right, ever since the Seafolk invaded, the enthronement ceremony, which we didn't even know if it could still be held, was postponed indefinitely. From then on, there wasn't even a reason for us to participate in the ceremony, so there was naturally no need for us to stay here.
Also, I keep feeling that something is wrong with the situation. The development of this war is too strange.
If this is the frontline of the eternal Sacred War, the appearance of the God Pet, Nine-headed Dragon Hydra is too early. However, after thinking about it for a moment, it is to be expected.
At his level, it isn't difficult for the Nine-headed Dragon Emperor to transform into a human. There is a high possibility that he is just hiding at the bottom of the river as an army supervisor. However, the pincer attack of the two fleets stunned him. If he doesn't make a move, the two SemiGods of the Ottoman Empire are more than enough to wipe out all of the Seafolk.
Thus, the Nine-headed Dragon, who was forced to make a move, fell into a predicament while massacring the Seafolk. As the pet of the Malevolent God, he also represents the will of the Malevolent God. If he were to chase after them on shore, the war would escalate. Even if the Order Gods don't make a move personally, they would definitely send out their Dragonslayer experts. The direct subordinates of the Gods are completely different from the SemiGods of the humans.
However, if he were to run away, not only would the Seafolk here be annihilated, his master would also be embarrassed. Thus, not advancing or retreating is the best choice.
The Auland Empire probably has some hidden forces as well. However, they have already rested for a few hours after firing their cannons a few times. Most likely, they are afraid of offending the Great Gods. The Nine-headed Dragon on the other side is the same as well. It has no intention of leaving its original position. As long as you don't provoke it, it will only occasionally spit out its Dragon Breath once or twice. While watching the Seafolk fight intensely, seven of its nine heads are lazing around.
The horn of the eternal Sacred War has just been blown and no one is prepared. If they were to go all out now, no matter who it is, they would only end up as cannon fodder. The Nine-headed Dragon and the Ottoman Empire aren't fools.
However, this kind of stalemate makes me feel that it is dangerous.
A stalemate on the battlefield is usually a situation where both sides are in a kind of equilibrium. However, this kind of equilibrium is always temporary. Both sides are strangely restraining themselves because they aren't mentally prepared for the final battle and the huge price to pay. However, they will be prepared sooner or later. As the stalemate ends, it is more likely that one side will suffer a crushing defeat. Looking at the current situation, the loser is most likely the unprepared Ottoman Empire.
If Lady Storm decides to go all out in the battle, even if she doesn't mind dying prematurely, if some rash SemiGod runs off to kill her beloved Nine-headed Dragon … Just thinking about what would happen if such a possibility occurs, I feel that this riverside city is no longer safe.
The technology that Darvis gave me is already in my hands. The fleet of resources is already out of the country's borders. The contract could be fulfilled at any moment. I also need to make preparations to retreat. However, before that …
"Renée, come along with me. There is a need to befriend those two people." After hesitating for a moment, I call for another person.
"Yingou, you come over as well. This time, we are going to meet your peers. Your mission is what you are best at. Brag as hard as you can and try your best to bluff them over."
…
'Master of Magic Engineering' Timlad and 'Miracle Alchemist' Olivia Wright, the creators of Magic Engineering and the creator of the future 5th-tier army, the Magic Engineering Dragon. Among the heroes of the future war epic, they are the two most dazzling ones.
War is the catalyst and training ground for all kinds of new technologies. In the future war, the Magic Engineering that these two came up with would create countless godly weapons and weapons of war. The reason why the Ottoman Empire was able to reach the pinnacle of the human world before it was destroyed was due to their contributions.
Of course, it was only after the war with the Underground World that they first proposed the Magic Engineering Field, which was a combination of Alchemy Magic Circles and Engineering, and the Magic Machinery Dragon was a product of sixty years later. Of the two heroes of Kagersi now, one was a rookie Engineer who sold toys for a living, and the other was an unqualified Alchemist who had just been kicked out of the Alchemy Academy.
Even though they are still unknown small characters, even though history has changed and these two might not be able to rise again, in history, the two of them are too important. How can I, who already lack manpower, let them go?
The reason why I didn't look for them all this while is that geniuses are a little weird. Furthermore, these two are great geniuses who left their mark in history … Alright, I'll be direct. Back then, I was looking for normal people to join my team. These two are definitely gentlemen among gentlemen, so why would I look for them?
But now …
Looking at the System Notification, I shook my head helplessly.
【As people who surpass common sense, un, we are commonly known as Perverted Gentlemen. Although we aren't understood by others, that is because we are too persistent in pursuing the path in our hearts, neglecting the eyes of ordinary people. But to a true Gentleman, it doesn't matter if others can't understand us. It is sufficient as long as we, the seekers of the path, can understand each other. As the King of Gentlemen, you are able to understand the sufferings and pain of others. You are the same kind as all Gentlemen, so naturally, everyone will respect you.】
【Honorary Title, King of Gentlemen: As a Gentleman among Gentlemen, the legendary uncrowned king, your name has spread across the entire plane. All Gentlemen will feel like old friends upon meeting you and their impression of you will increase greatly. However, ordinary people will instinctively hate you and stay away from you. At the same time, as the King of Gentlemen, you will instinctively attract Gentlemen to meet you. When you raise an invitation to them, there is a higher chance of them joining your team.】
Back then, even though that Ogre's strength wasn't too bad and he had Tracy's guarantee that he would be obedient and become a good fighter as long as he provided food, I was still hesitant on whether I should allow him to join us.
But very quickly, I didn't need to hesitate anymore. The escape of those four short fellows instantly caused the upper limit of the Gentlemen Alliance to exceed. Thus, the System unhesitatingly gave me this title.
【Congratulations, King of Gentlemen. As the King of Perverts, your level of Gentlemanliness is unparalleled. — — Don't talk to me, mommy, there's a pervert here!】
"Hehe, I suddenly find you more pleasing to the eye."
I have already tested the might of this halo. Hearing what other people said, I was still a little happy. However, when this' pleasing to the eye 'came from the Dracon, I felt a chill down my spine.
Cough cough, back to the main topic, after obtaining the 'good reputation' of the King of Gentlemen, I was so depressed that I almost gave up on myself. Now, I can only hope that this title is really as impressive as it says, that it can help me lure those two future rising stars.
"Hmph, it's fine if I haven't heard of any Timlad, but Senior Olivia is a famous freak. She failed 7 out of the 13 main subjects and was directly kicked out of the academy. She is almost the shame of the academy, so how can she be considered a genius?"
Unexpectedly, we had an additional companion in our group. The granddaughter of the Kain Holy Knight, Katherine, was actually from the Third Alchemy Academy in Kagesi. It was said that she was Olivia's classmate.
Since the sword was already in my hands, Katherine naturally made her decision. The current her had already become my Knight retainer and Mage apprentice.
Yes, the path she chose wasn't the path of a Knight, nor the path of a Mage.
"That … Can I try out both paths? I really can't make up my mind. "
Based on what I knew, she still hadn't given up on her previous studies in Alchemy. A person's energy and time were both limited. Trying to study three different paths at the same time was basically courting death. However, I didn't say anything. In any case, reality would force her to make a choice sooner or later.
When she heard that we were looking for an Alchemy genius, as an Alchemist, she volunteered herself. However, when she heard that it was Olivia, displeasure filled her face.
"It should be in the vicinity. Do you know where Olivia lives?"
As expected, I received a negative answer from Katherine. Thus, I found a random person to ask for directions.
"Excuse me, do you know where Olivia's Alchemy …" Alright, halfway through his sentence, the man's face paled upon hearing the name Olivia. He started sweating profusely and his eyes darted around frantically.
Alright, just from this passerby's behavior, I could roughly guess what kind of person she was.
"If she is a little more gentlemanly, with the help of the King of Gentlemen, it should be easy to coax her into joining us. However, if she is too gentlemanly, that bunch of bastards is enough … Should I hope that she is more normal or more abnormal? How contradictory."
"Boom!"
"Alright, you don't need to point the way. Little brother, you should hurry up and run. I think I found her."
That beautiful green mushroom cloud, the screams not too far away, and the passerby's action of running away explained everything.
"This color, looks like wearing a Dwarf gas mask was the correct choice … Looks like there's no need to hesitate anymore. The Gentlemen Alliance is about to add more people."
