Chapter 356 - 355 – Bored.
(If the one leading the organization is really a "old god" …. Then it would had explained a lot.)
(But didn't all old gods die in order to restore the world and banish the invaders?)
(If so, then there shouldn't be any old gods left…. If that old information is real.)
(Maybe some old gods hid their existence? Or maybe they were not sacrifices during the whole repair process?)
(Or maybe the one leading the organization is something like offspring of an old gods?)
(Gods from heaven and hell can also reproduce and have their own children…. So why shouldn't old gods have their own children?)
"…"
(Hm… There is a lot of possibilities and stuff…. But no real evidence to back up any of my claims.)
"…"
(The only way to find out would be to get information directly from one of the representatives…. But what if they are affected by magic contract?)
(For example demons can create something like contracts that affect people "souls" and stuff…. So, it wouldn't be surprised if I were to beat up "Kid" and if he were to talk his head would just explode.)
(The organization IS using actively the modified and enslaved version of heaven powers, hell powers, spirit powers and all sort of other powers.)
"…"
(Wait…. How exactly are they "enslaving" these powers?)
(The angels and demons that had been turned into slaves… They are hollow.)
(Not like they mind controlled…. More like they are corpse without souls.)
(It is not a necromancy, since my [Detect Death] would notice them already.)
(They are also strict about those enslaved halos as well.)
(Even though they give them, they are keeping watch on who has them. So, I can't take them on mission, use them and pretend that I have completely exhausted them while in reality hiding one…. Nope. It doesn't work according to the "Kid" and that I shouldn't try that.)
(…)
"But he also said that alliance is only temporarily…."
"Once invaders are dealt with, there will be an massive war."
(And "Kid" plans on wiping out the dragons.)
"…"
(Should I switch sides?)
(And by sides I mean switch over to the dragons?)
"…"
(Nah. They are too unstable.)
(Not only that, but it seems that the dragons as whole don't really like my…. "Approach".)
(They do own me and the leaders of each clan know it…. But they are also wary off me.)
(Even that earth dragon general that I've worked with looked at me… Well, it was clear that he did not trust me at all, especially after I used my plague.)
(I don't think I will be…..)
"…"
(Oh… THAT SON OF A BITCH!)
(The poison that elves used on dragons!)
(THAT IS THE THING THAT BASTARD WANTS ME FOR!)
(He wants to get – NO! HE MAY ALREADY HAVE THE MATERIALS!)
(And he wants me to create plague out of them!)
(That is that bastard goal from the start.)
(But I doubt the plague alone would do it.)
(…)
(This guy is still planning something.)
"…"
(Maybe instead of thinking about finding out more about organization…. I should think about how to deal with vampires.)
(It wouldn't be surprising if "Kid" was planning on betraying me in the future.)
(But he may also not, since I'm too valuable for him.)
"…"
(Oh well, for now I should focus on the current situation.)
(Pretty much, most of the players in the game had joined one of many factions by now.)
(But there are also some that…. Didn't joined yet.)
(That would be "Hunting Wolf" and "Blue Diamond" guild.)
(Two of my best clients…. Although the "Hunting Wolf" have not contacted me for long time…. Zues must be feeling betrayed and stuff…. Oh well.)
(Diamond is still willing to do business with me and stuff.)
"…"
[Doctor is Phantasia?]
(Yeb. The truth is already exposed far and wide. There is no use anymore with the mask.) – thought the man as he scrolled through different post online regarding Doctor/Phantasia.
"…"
"?"
(What is this?)
[First player made nation: Ever]
"…"
["Out of finally long awaited time, an first player made nation had been founded by the player Venus."]
["One of most well known rankers in the game had founded their own nation, an nation of humans."]
["Is he the beginning of the player starting their own nations?"]
"…"
"Huh…"
(An first nation created by players? This is interesting.)
"…"
(Maybe I should destroy it for fun?!)
"…"
(Yeb… This will do.)
(I GUESS I HAVE EVEN MORE MOTIVATION TO DESTORY THAT WORLD!)
<<After lazing around for a bit, I've returned to work.>>
<<For my and "Kid" plan, I needed to finish the homunculus research.>>
<<And beside that…. There was really nothing going on in the world that required any of our attention.>>
<<Well, expect for that one war.>>
<<The war between heavens, hell and dragons.>>
<<That war is still just…. Raging on to this day? The hell is going on there?>>
<<…>>
<<Okay. So I've looked it up and turns out that the situation there is pretty much… Equal?>>
<<Pretty much, nobody was able to push forward or deal an "heavy hit".>>
<<….>>>
<<Should I join that war now?>>
<<I could get more dragon clans own me favors.>>
<<…>>
<<Nah.>>
<<Right now I need to focus on developing this kingdom and improve my research.>>
<<I also want to finish up that [Dungeon] research.>>
<<…..And about that [Dungeon] research….. Yea…. It kind of never had any opportunity to shine at all.>>
<<I mean, during the war time, it takes FAR too long for it to develop at all.>>
<<The dungeon I do have active are…. Well, they are just there.>>
<<Some were destroyed, some are left standing.>>
<<They farm skill experience and other stuff…. But that is it….. Wow…. Pretty much this research is not being used "usefully" at all… And this was supposed to be my "secret weapon" and stuff…. But I kind of never use it "directly".>>
<<Chimeras, plagues, toys and cyborg modification? All of them are being all the time….. But dungeon isn't.>>
<<….>>
<<Maybe if I were not to care about peace any longer, I could spread around my dungeons and have them go on rampage…. But the "Kid" could be paying attention to said dungeons….>>
<<…>>
<<Damn…. This "partnership" is both useful and extremely annoying.>>
<<Still, I don't really do with the final research though…>>
<<Weapons, combat, summons, crafting…. I have all of it.>>
<<I've had obtained countless classes and I can create legendary items.>>
<<I'm the best crafter in the whole game.>>
<<I can craft really anything I want.>>
<<….>>
<<Nope. Forget about it. For now, focus on homunculus.>>
<<To develop an proper homunculus, I needed to came up with an brand new blue print for their pod, since the mass produced type cleared showed.>>
<<And oh boy…. Creating crafting production machine is far more annoying if you don't have linked skill, like for example [Nightmare Toy Factory] or [Golem Factory].>>
<<So yea… It took me sometime to develop and then produce an proper capsule.>>
<<Afterwords the trail and error phase was next….. And then it was finally made.>>
"So… This is an true homunculus, eh?" – said excited "Kid" as he stared at the pod with liquid that contained female figure with somewhat young appearance, around 16-20.
"Yeb. This is probably the first proper one." – said Phantasia.
"Creating the body and the pod took a hell of a time though."
"But still, her body did not collapsed like the rest and process is going smoothly."
"…"
"Can you mass produce them?" – asked "Kid".
"No." – said Phantasia.
"Mass production is out of question."
"We still don't know how well her mind is developed."
"It could be like my other kids mind, being developed pretty well from get go."
"Or her mind could be somewhat… "Young" or "unstable"."
"There is also the question whenever or not she would be to "live", since this is the first homunculus that would be born this way."
"She may just die from get go, so you know. Don't get your hopes up yet."
"…"
"But still, this is massive progress." – said "Kid".
"Good work and keep it up."
"…"
"So, what the hell are you planning?" – asked Phantasia.
"…"
"What do you mean?" – asked "Kid".
"Oh, nothing much…. Just- "
"Why the hell did you asked "mass production"?" – asked Phantasia.
"Are you planning on going for another war or something?"
"…"
"Well…. Yes, but not now." – said "Kid".
"I just want to make sure that these new "soldiers" are developed and ready to fight."
"…"
"Oh, by the way, we maybe end up getting attacked in the future."
"…"
"Wut?" – said Phantasia.
"What did you do?"
"Me? Nothing, really." – replied "Kid".
"Well, expect for the fact that the holy empire is planning on "cleansing" this land from corruption."
"They are planning on dealing with all "filthy" vampires and mad heretics."
"…"
"For fuck sake dude. I just wanted to spend my time researching in peace now." – said annoyed Phantasia.
"I didn't wanted another war."
"Well, sorry, but this ain't my fault." – said "Kid".
"The holy empire had its own war recently where it was dealing with the "heretics", I've even heard some scary demons were summons, but were dealt with."
"Obviously the holy empire is pretty much in shambles…. But I've managed to find out about the "holy emperor" next move."
"And it is obvious us."
"This time the ones that are getting attacked, are us."
