Chapter 259 Treason



Day 68

Today, we started gathering the necessary items to begin our construction. Unfortunately, we were met by some resistance from the dryads of trees. Of course, not all the trees belonged to dryads, but they were still angry since the location we chose had a few of them.

It took a while, but we ended up in a field of flowers. The field was large enough to cater for the needs of a small village, so we decided to simply make huts for the incoming orcs and kobolds here. I had hob-goblins and goblins that had afternoon training sessions cut down the trees.

Oh yeah, that’s right. Julian had separated the goblins and hob-goblins into two shifts. Some for the morning session and some for afternoon sessions. He admitted that the number of goblins would be a bit annoying to monitor at the same time.

So, if the afternoon group didn’t finish, I’d give the morning group a 30-minute break before we continued.

We got a lot of wood and quickly went to work. I honestly wasn’t sure about how the whole process went, but Reiman assured me I could leave it to him.

They cleared the field of all its flowers mercilessly and tore up the earth. The tunnelers were ruthlessly efficient at their job. Speaking of tunnelers, they were these huge rats with claws as sharp as steel that could also act as drills.

They had the highest defence and strength of the rats, as well as the greatest amount of stamina given their occupation was literally creating tunnels. They were easily the most monstrous in appearance too, and they’d grown blind most likely due to the lack of enough sunlight.

Thinking was still possible for them, but their intelligence was now the equivalent of most trolls. For your information, most trolls are below average on the intelligence scale.

Some weren’t too happy by the fact that their friends ended up as dumb bodies, but they also could understand as it wasn’t an all too new experience for them.

I left them to their business then went to check on Ichi and Ni.

My spawns Ichi and Ni evolved into something called Blood Spriggans. They were leaner and had better stats than before. Aesthetically, I’d have to say they looked far scarier than before and their behaviours had taken a turn for the worse.

They were far more violent than before and would attack anything that looked like a threat with all their strength. Ichi split a butterfly into two different pieces just because it got a little too close to me. I’ve heard of heartless, but he was way too much.

I guess the bright side was that they are absolutely loyal to me. In the end, I didn’t think too much about it.

Also, the Hell kitten started bothering me for a name, so I called it Maou as a sort of tribute to one of my favourite demon lord anime. Apparently, naming my own kid didn’t take any mana from me. No. This child took something far worse.

It took a bit of my soul apparently. I didn’t feel anything going away, and according to my agent, I wouldn’t even feel any sort of discomfort. However, it was simply a means of showing that we were bonded no matter what form the kitten takes on. If it died and reincarnated, it would still remain my family and I would be able to identify it.

That was a bit extra in my opinion, but I didn’t waste time thinking about it. Rather, my interests laid in where Yokino was.

She was currently M.I.A with no excuse whatsoever. I couldn’t track her through the system, I couldn’t send any messages, I couldn’t sense her. Absolutely nothing and with no warning. Yes, she normally did this, but it was starting to get creepy by the fact that I couldn’t see her in the familia system anymore.

Sure, if she died, I would be alerted to that fact, but there was no alert of any kind. It’s like she left the familia without saying anything, but I still felt connected to her.

Today, Kawaii came up to me, asking if I wanted a kid with her. Angrily, I kicked her out to go protect Ulva. Sylphie was also unusually unproductive today.

Dhijan Hero Nation, Royal Palace

In this empty room which was once the most important part of the palace, two people were standing, facing each other. The room still looked in tact even though the last time it was used was approximately 3 to 4 years ago.

Amongst the two people, one of them was a little girl with silvery-white hair. She was sweating profusely and had her body on high alert in case of anything. She hadn’t expected to be called after the Odysseus which was prolonged due to a certain incident taking place.

If anything, she wanted to stay far away from this person, the Paladin of Power Excelcior. Her surrogate father looked at her with keen interest and marched towards her and she took some steps back, trying to maintain their current distance.

Upon noticing this, Excelcior stopped. He scratched his scruff beard then scowled.

“I hear you regained your memories of your life from before being summoned to this world.”

His voice sounded gentle and welcoming. Rulis knew better than to trust this. She kept her mouth shut and held her breath, waiting for the moment he did something to summon her sword.

“You can’t speak? Answer me!”

He commanded, causing the whole room to shake.

“Eek! Y-Yes sir!”

Her mouth responded automatically. She was very much aware of the kind of power he possessed. What was scarier was the fact that after he went on a mission to hunt down the Black Knight, there was something different about him. His power had clearly skyrocketed, but there was something evidently different about him.

“Tell me who you were in your original life.”

“Maya Kobayashi, F-Fifteen-year-old highschooler.”

“So, you have lost your memories. How unfortunate.”

He turned around to face the wall. There was visibly nothing interesting about it, however these walls were built to withstand a very high amount of force easily. Over the years, only one thing had ever destroyed them and even then, it wasn’t from what he was expecting to destroy them.

“Do you remember this place?”

How could she? To her, this place signified the starting point of her hell. Treated like a machine, having her memories forcefully repressed, witnessing everything but no knowing that she was never in control of her actions, working like a dog for people who didn’t think much of her. She hated every last bit of it when she acquired her memories.

“Well, do you!?”

“Y-Yes.”

She meekly responded.

“Do not make me repeat myself again.”

Excelcior gave her one warning. He wasn’t one to give second chances often.

“Do you know what this room is for?”

“Summoning heroes from another world.”

At her response, the king turned around and his kept fluttered majestically at that simple motion. For some reason, he looked much kinglier than he ever had in her eyes.

“Precisely! Did you ever think about why I changed this nation’s name to the Dhijan Hero Nation?”

Neburis shook her head at his second question.

“Of course, you wouldn’t. You’ve never read our history books.”

He took a few more steps towards Rulis and she walked back by a few steps. Before she knew it, she could feel the cold pillar wall on her back.

“In truth, the Dhijan nation used to be one of the weakest nations at the time of the 6 Great Heroes from the New Kyoto Empire’s appearance. Back then, the New Kyoto Empire was simply known as the Ivalon Empire. It was the second largest empire, only matched by the Mexar Empire. In order to beat out their competing Empire, the emperor sanctioned for the summoning of people of great power who would turn the tide for the Ivalon Empire. The heroes summoned would come to be known as the 6 Great Heroes.”

A sudden history lesson. Rulis wasn’t sure of where he was headed with this, but was keeping herself ready for the slightest show of harmful intentions.

“However, that Ivalon Empire is no more. Do you know why?”

“…No.”

“Because the useless summons betrayed them. The summons reported on how their lives were terribly ruined even when they themselves admitted that they liked their new lives better. They cried to the Mexar Empire and of course, their competitors saw a chance to completely crush the Ivalon Empire. They thought they defeated the empire and acquired some very powerful people, only to be betrayed by the summons as well. Now, the that Ivalon Empire is called the New Kyoto Empire and the art of summoning people from other worlds has become an illegal act punishable by any culprits found being executed.”

Neburis was trying her best to not summon her sword immediately to attack as the distance between them was currently not more than two feet.

“As a child, my teachers would always tell me to learn from history. “A great king is one who learns the mistakes of kings before him”. So, I did. The king of the original Dhijan Nation summoned 1 hero with a bind that ensured the hero would never betray him. This was kept a secret and that hero was publicly announced as a member of the royal family. Hence, the rise of the Dhijan Hero Nation.”

‘Wait… is he scared of me now that he can’t control me?’

Rulis thought while trying to peer into his soul. Unfortunately, it wasn’t working.

“Rulis, you are the result of an illegal experiment. Should this become public information, the Dhijan Hero Nation shall face some serious scrutiny. I thought over several ways to resolve this, but I guess the best way to resolve that is to have you executed.”

He had just declared her death sentence. This was enough reason for Rulis to summon her sword, widening the distance between them. Excelcior chuckled once he saw.

“For your attempt at murdering the King of the Dhijan Hero Nation, you, Rulis Tepe Miksari Eldiro Furialt, Former hero princess, shall be detained and decapitated, by decree of the King!”

Rulis couldn’t care less. She charged forward, swiping her blade at him with obvious lack of know-how. Excelcior couldn’t help but feel disappointed by her childish swinging. After all these years, her body didn’t even learn how to swing a sword from being controlled.

The king could easily avoid her swipes forever, but he instead chose to grab the blade with his bare hand then proceeded to jab her abdomen and send her flying to the other side of the room. He looked at her blade just as it burnt to a crisp in his hand.

He already knew, but it was still annoying. That is, the fact that her sword cannot be held by anyone other than her.

Then, he noticed something odd. There was no sound of Rulis making impact with the wall. Looking up, all he met was a portal. A normal portal was created by accumulating external mana to one spot which took a lot of power and concentration to do. The problem with it was that anyone would be able to sense a portal forming since it was practically a blob of mana.

This portal was different. A portal that couldn’t be sensed was one that wasn’t created with mana. It was a forcibly created tear in space that shortened the distances with another means. Naturally, an impossible act, but if it was a unique skill, no one would doubt it. Excelcior knew someone who had just the right unique skill for this.

The other side of the portal, there was one person glaring at him. Her white and black eyes tried to stab him, but Excelcior was used to that.

“Neburis, assisting that thing will make you a traitor to this nation. Are you willing to commit treason?”

He asked, but all he got was the silence of the portal closing before him.
