Ark of Death · ■ of ■ Part III

□ [Armored Pilot] Hugo Receps

Day two aboard. Mr Manigold's business meeting will take place today.

Apparently, the negotiators will be boarding in the next city to dock.

I'm having a late breakfast meeting with Mr. Manigold.

"Speaking of which, do you know the details of the next bead?

In the first hermine, the beads of thunder. In the next Cortana there were maggot beads and... [Pluto] beads that turned the water that Benetnache had into dirt.

Until now, I knew I had it, but I didn't even know what it was.

However, since we are talking about buying it out in negotiations this time, it is possible that we are passing on the bead details over there.

And then Mr. Manigold nodded at my question.

"Oh, it's sealed to turn a non-human organism (monster) into a human organism (tian). It's always gonna be a beauty, a beauty."

"... that's a very limiting effect"

Or why does the sealed UBM, a big book of that ability, have that ability?

"He said the original owner of the beads was a slave trader, selling monsters that humanized them. Well, if you sell a cheap [Little Goblin] as a beautiful man and a beautiful woman, the difference is pretty big. Although basically monsters are higher than sub-dragons, so it wouldn't have been a big deal."

"The original owner...... is that someone else to talk to this time?

Mr. Manigold nodded as he made wrinkles in the flesh of his neck.

"They said there was a time limit for that personification. Three days later, it goes back to normal. Naturally, the buyer was furious... and jumped on other slave traders. As a result, the slave trader was killed by an unleashed hitman in a sanction that vandalized the slave market."

"It's also..."

"It could be retaliation from a buyer, not a colleague. If I go back to Goblin while I'm fucking you, then I'll be angry. It's traumatic."

…………

It's a hard story to comment on......

"So, to me... or Cardina, it was the merchant's former subordinate who had been diagnosing the council with 'Take this bead away'. Though I held a bead with the bead when I ran away from the town I was in business with, I could be targeted just because I have it on top of the rest. So he wants to replace it with gold."

"I see."

... To see the example of the mayor of Cortana, I think that decision is correct because having that bead would be a source of commotion.

"What would Mr. Manigold do if he bought it out?

"Deliver to Congress. That's my job this time.... If you take it down and turn it into a reward weapon, the Yellow River will fly in May, so we have to deliver it as safely as possible. I don't even want you to talk to me when you've been stolen and torn apart."

That being said, Mr. Manigold took out the cigar in frustration.

Isala, who was standing beside him, pinches her (...) sucking mouth with her finger (...) and lights it with a lighter.

It was a flash, but the cross section was planar, not a thousand chopped winds.... Is that the kind of job that uses skills?

"Cortana's auction has been suspended for a long time in Gotagota for mayoral changes and reconstruction, and it's affecting me even..."

One dose, Mr. Manigold exhaled smoke with his sigh.

The current situation in Cardina can also be described as a victim who was involved even though it had nothing to do with the original theft.

The death of the mayor and a long period of dysfunction in the city's big hole, such as Cortana, which was the heart of commerce.

I guess Mr. Manigold is angry at me for that too.

"... Well, the Yellow River is being negotiated by the chancellor. If you do well, you can remove the shackles and dispose of them over here."

"But how about porn occasions?

... Cuco, I don't think humanized beads are for that purpose only.

"No, the demand for porn is uninterrupted as long as mankind continues. If you can smash it, I want it."

"I've been thinking about it since yesterday, but aren't you too open to speaking in public!?

"Hit the porn fat"

"The concern is that I want someone from the Eighty-Nine AR/I CA, too."

"Master would do it!?

"All the porn...... I wish I could"

Beautiful men and beauties all you can make. If you're a master, you want more than you can get your hands out of your throat......!

No way, you won't wake up with such an asshole...?

"Leave that alone, it is. If you can break the beads, you can also take back the damage Cardina suffered in a series of disturbances. So I just want the chancellor to win the bargain."

"I don't think you can redeem yourself for Cortana damage, even if you have a few privileged weapons..."

Interpretations are weapons and materials that can be used by individuals.

Where that was a little bit, we can't take back the status quo in which Cardina's largest commercial city fell into dysfunction.

"No, we can pay enough. Eventually, we'll get a lot of new trading routes."

Trading route?

Is there something in the beads that affects the coming and going of this desert?

"I want to hear it from you too. Do you remember the structure of the [Eltrame] issue yet?

To change the course of the conversation, Mr. Manigold came to me with a part-time job I had undertaken… a question about the escort.

"Yes. For one thing, I looked around the ship within yesterday to grasp the structure. All roads except restricted power blocks and cargo bays."

"Thank you"

"I looked around and thought again, this [Eltram] is pretty big. How much MP does it take to run?

< Infinite Dendrogram > has magic (MP) and magic.

Demonic power is an easy-to-handle, colorless energy that can be substituted for various energies, including thermal and electrical energy and wind energy.

For this reason, in Infinite Dendrogram, science and technology also prevail in the form of magic applications.

Cardina's sand boarding, and Gran Barroa's powered ship, are moving with people pouring MP just like Drife's.

In some cases, tanks have been installed that can store MP in advance if it is such a large ship, but Big Book can be described as a manpower.

And the bigger it gets and the more weight it weighs, the more MP it needs to be.

Speaking on this ship, at least, it's not a ratio of [White Rose]. That's what I thought and asked...

"No, this ship doesn't use people's MPs. It is a power reactor for large ships of previous periods of civilization, which was excavated from the earth and restored. That's a rarity."

"Heh..."

Really rare.

I knew that earlier periods of civilization with superior technology had created a power reactor that produced magic itself, but it was not until Ray's [Silver Wind] that I saw the real thing.

It may be the first time that it is large enough to move this ship.

"But you can't have a restaurant."

"Oh. I have a technician who specializes in that. Restored this ship's power reactor is a particularly well-known figure among experts. A technician who has been active for decades and whose name is certain... Chris Fragment, should have been"

"Such a person..."

There was such an excellent technician in this cardina, not a drife.

Chris Fragment...

"Most likely, he's an unidentified freak. I've been restoring items of civilization for a long time now, and I've repeatedly sold them to the person who craved them, as I aimed for them. This time again, they sold power reactors for large ships to Cardina's largest transportation company. Its power furnace has high performance that requires almost no maintenance. Besides, they even sold the blueprints for the proposed improvements to the hull."

Mr. Manigold took another dose of the cigar for a breather.

"Construction of an ultra-large sandship that combines the transportation of supplies with passenger ships. Since there is demand, it has been planned many times before, and each time the power surface has become a neck and crumbled. But no way, I'm surprised they even fix the power furnace enough to clear that problem and bring it.... you could have sold it to me."

Mr. Manigold muttered bossly, with the same face as when he had been hanging on to [White Rose] 's buyout.

"But the power furnace of civilization from earlier periods... Even if it's not big enough to move this ship, with it..."

Maybe [White Rose] 's problem can be solved too.

Running time gets very short on my MP for multi activated defensive skills and for outputs that move armor of mythical alloys.

But that problem can be cleared if [White Rose] 's power furnace can be replaced from the current MP conversion formula to the previous period's spontaneous formula of civilization.

"You look like you want something, but be careful. Chris Fragment is a famous restore technician. The guy who tries to trick his name into selling crap is in Cardina as well as at any cost. Especially a power reactor with many applications."

"... I'll be careful"

I don't have a "verdict of authenticity"... let's be careful.

Speaking of which... I heard from my sister and all the members before, but they've only handled the civilized power reactor for one time before.

That was a request from the Imperial Army before the Civil War, apparently in appreciation of [Marshall II] 's mass production success.

They were provided with a power reactor in a rare, well-preserved condition, and used it to make Magingear.

Besides, the fact that there were no limits to the budget motivated all of the members too much...... it filled them with high-cost equipment and features.

The result is that even the term profitability exterior is a raw and warm airframe.

My [White Rose] and my master's [Blue Opera] are prototypes my sister built on her own based on [Marshall II], but that was an experimental machine where < Triangle of Wisdom > brought together total force.

< Maggie Gear > as a one-of-a-kind superrobot (...), not a [Marshall II] of mass production assumptions.

I have only seen it in recorded photographs...... golden fuselage (...).

However, that aircraft was also lost in the Gotagota of the Civil War. It wasn't destroyed, but they took it out somewhere and it seems to be missing as it is.

I thought you said your sister and all the members were "wasted".

... where is that fuselage now?

◆ ◆ ◆

■ Urban parking

An underground warehouse on the corner of the city where the [Eltram] is scheduled to dock on this night.

On the face of it, a large group of people had gathered at that facility, which was loaned to a certain Chamber of Commerce.

Alongside hundreds, they are uniformed in the same uniform.

It was... the military uniform of Drife.

A large < Magingear > sits in front of them in alignment, with a man standing on his back with that fuselage.

"Gentlemen, we will carry out the largest operation since we relocated our base to this Cardina"

Standing in front of the soldiers is a man with several medals on his luxury uniform.

His name, Curtis Erdona, was only in his late twenties.

He is the second son of the Marquis of Erdona and a former Major General of the Imperial Drife Army.

But he is not the man who took that position solely by virtue of his family.

Because he's, like, super.

Super Pilot System Position [Super Pilot "Ower Driver"].

He further commanded the First Armored Battalion, which gathered the noble children, and was also the man entrusted with the operation of the new weapon, < Subdragon Magingear > … [Marshall II].

But that status is a story of the past.

He is now - a representative of the Dreiffe Orthodox Government.

The soldiers here, including him, were arguably the main unit of the Dreiffe Orthodox government.

The Marquis Erdona family is the biological mother of the First Prince of Gustav… it is the Empress's home.

First Prince Gustav, and his son, Haron, were the most powerful king candidates after the death of his predecessor, the King.

If either of the two became king, the Marquis of Erdona, the Empress's younger brother, was supposed to be the next king's uncle or great-uncle.

But the outlook collapsed with the death of the two and Reinhardt's inheritance, and developed into a civil war for not allowing it, as did the other great nobles.

The battle was challenged by employing a faction centered on the First Armored Battalion, commanded by his second son Curtis, a First Prince's Secret Service, and a sprendida of “evergreen trees”.

But Marquis Erdona fell ill during the civil war - supposedly due to the failure of Reinhardt's assassination - and his eldest son, who was more passive about the civil war than his ex, submitted to Reinhardt after losing his father.

Speaking of results, the Marquis Erdona family was defeated by Reinhardt… the new King.

But it was Curtis, who led the First Armored Battalion, who did not acknowledge it.

Curtis ran off with his like-minded men without even listening to his brother, the New Marquis.

Now he leads the Drife legitimate government in Cardina.

Swearing from the bottom of my heart (...) the goal of 'overthrowing Reinhardt one day'.

Curtis will provide an overview of the operation for the men gathered in the underground warehouse.

It is a sort of liturgical thing that Curtis, who already understands everyone but is thus at the top in front of everyone, explains.

"The [Eltram] getting in more than this has something we should get. It was a civilized power reactor from a long time ago!

In this cardina...... and even drife rare goods.

That's what they're looking for now.

"This is only worthy of us, the rightful heirs of civilization from earlier periods, and the power reactor will also wish to return to the righteous hand of the Lord"

If he heard, he would laugh with his nose, but it was a sort of exaltation that floated in the faces of the soldiers that were in line.

"In the future, it is even possible to build weapons for the recapture of Drife! Yes! The false king of the evil tyranny who murdered First Prince Gustav and Halon! Be the sword to defeat Reinhardt!

The soldiers respond to Curtis' heartfelt anger.

Many of them feared the disappearance of vested interests because of the great nobility, and fell to Cardina because of resentment, personal greed and privacy.

But more than that... some of them operate under oath of vengeance from the First Prince and his son, whom they loved.

It's those faces that I've just responded to, and Curtis's own thoughts are half the same as (...) them.

"This time I have a guide for collaborators who understand our justice! A separate unit led by Lieutenant Colonel Berlin is also moving to secure supplies for the future! To reward each other, why don't we get a trump card for the future too!

"" "Whoa, whoa, whoa!

"Reinhardt, I forgive you. Seriously! For our righteousness to gain power! Raid the [Eltram]!

"" "Jesus Sir!!

Dreiffe Orthodox government soldiers salute each other, and Curtis responds to it.

That's how they set out to carry out their justice - a major crime if you try it as a passenger on the [Eltram].

…………

After seeing his men move out and exit the underground warehouse... Curtis looks back behind him.

There was a fuselage there that had been sitting there until then...... his dedicated aircraft.

"... first, one at a time. Wave the spear of my [Glory (...)], build on the power of the Drife legitimate government, and one day... defeat the Reinhardt, the root of all evil"

Curtis mutters to herself as she pushes her forehead against the cold armor of the - [Imperial (of the Empire) - Glory (of Glory)] of the dragon head (...) with gold.

"So wait for me...................... Via"

That's how I called someone's name and leaned down for a while before... he looked up.

The fuselage is then stored in the [garage] and the heel is returned.

To do what he believes he should do on his own.

To be continued
