There was a similar feeling even when he had the body of a witch, but it was an atmosphere where the murderous intent to kill the enemy reached its peak. That’s because it evolved to suffocate the enemy. However, the look of Howard, who had just been shown briefly, was different.
I had never felt that Howard was negative. No matter what happened, it was Howard who never forgot that he was human.
“What am I?”
Howard’s natural reply was no different from usual. But is it okay as it is?
“Did you see something like a crystal of evil?”
“If there is good, there must also be evil.”
That’s right. No, I don’t think the two can exist separately in the first place. In that sense, Howard’s evolution this time isn’t all that bad.
Howard shrugged as I looked at him with still cold eyes.
“are you okay. everything will be alright.”
For now, I decided to trust Howard. But from now on, I decided to pay more attention to Howard.
“Then why did you call me?”
You can’t just call it a rise in rank.
“Now I’m going to go soon”
“I don’t really need you right now?”
Occasionally some damage is incurred, but the allied forces hold back the enemy’s offensive well. Rather, it may be that unity works well because there is damage.
“I’m not saying I’m going to do anything myself, but I’m just in case.”
It wouldn’t be bad to go and wait if it’s a level to prepare for. Shaq would be delighted with it.
“Yeah, I got it.”
I took Howard and moved to the barracks on the front line. As Argin and Shaq greeted Howard happily, the Allies’ leadership began to take an interest in the sudden new figure.
However, when the name Howard Calista became known, he was shocked. If Swordsman is a legend of the present, Howard is a legend of the past.
Howard naturally infiltrated part of the Union Army. Although he did not directly engage in combat, Howard’s treatment was top-notch.
And sometimes he sparred with Argin or Shark. Even though it was not done with all its might because there was no suitable space, the people watching could not help but admire.
It was because Howard dealt with Argin and Shark, who looked like gods in their eyes, with ease as if playing with them.
But even that stopped after some time. Argin and Shaq gradually became unable to afford enough sparring.
Enemies coming out of the hole were getting stronger. The level of the enemies was becoming a level that normal humans could not cope with.
Master-class knights and several archmages had to stick together to prevent a monster from popping out of a hole.
Fortunately, as a dimensional hole was created and the level of those gathered here increased dramatically, the number of master-class warriors and archmages increased enormously.
There were 7 master-class knights in the Aether Empire in the past, but now there are over 40. There were members of the Central Knights, but many of them were knights from Akasha and the Tempest Territory.
In both territories, there were already many knights close to the Master even before this incident occurred. In the first place, it was a natural result since Jake and other great teachers nurtured the talented people I had carefully selected from all over the continent.
There was one more place where the power surged. The Sword Mountain Mercenary Corps is headquartered in the Akasha estate.
It is a place where I unintentionally absorbed many of the talents I selected. Even there, starting with Abel Tristan, the successor of the leader Zizac, many talented people crossed the wall of master.
As the power of Akasha and the Tempest Territory increased further, there was a noise inside the empire, but it quickly subsided.
This is because even before the increase in master class, the power cost was out of sync. Above all, who can say that Emperor William is fine?
I and the leaders of both allied forces were having meetings every day. It was a frustrating time for me.
I advocated the dissolution or retreat of the allied forces. As it stands now, ordinary soldiers are of no help at all. There is no need for tens of thousands of people to swarm here.
However, there were many people in the Allied leadership who gave negative opinions to the retreat. Some showed a determination to fight to the end and die, while others voiced opposing opinions on other issues.
Once you are here, your strength will naturally increase, and the cost of maintaining your army will be lower than when you are in your own country.
On the other hand, there were others who supported my opinion. In this way, the opinions of each other were compatible and time passed.
But the answer came from an unexpected place. One day during a meaningless meeting, Setas came to visit me.
It didn’t come on the Nautilus, it just popped out in front of me. This is the guy who was in the new continent a while ago. It seemed to disappear from the clone’s sight, but then appeared in front of me. It seems that this guy is also able to use space movement. Considering the travel time, it seems that the efficiency is still not as good as mine, but it is ridiculous to do such a long-distance spatial movement without an alter ego.
“Are you going to do that now?”
“How long have you been studying space movement? When I thought about it, trying to follow the lord’s way was not the answer.”
Come to think of it, before Shark, this guy was also a crazy genius. No, this guy thinks more. If Setas had eaten the fruit of the gods, he might not have bothered to stop Utuka. Setas would have sliced it all by himself.
“Are you finished with your research?”
“Yes, roughly.”
The research on the phase dimension that Setas was conducting seems to have yielded roughly the results.
“How long does it take to be perfect, not roughly?”
“It seems impossible now. It might be possible someday, but not in a year.”
Now, the time of destiny is only one year left. I knew for some time that Setas’ research was bearing fruit.
Recently, Setas’ lab was blown up twice in a row. It was a godsend to prepare several extra laboratories just in case, just in case.
“What problem have you not solved now?”
“There is a lack of experimentation. There are things you can only know by trying them out.”
“Then let’s start right away.”
If you open the phase dimension and send the dimensional hole to another space, the Allies will no longer need to be here. Naturally, the allied forces would disband and return to their respective homes. It’s a perfect match.
While he was thinking about that, Bastet, who came on top of Setas’ head like a bonus, said a word.
[We must protect the houses of humans well]
It sounded like the unique sound of catching floating clouds, but I felt like I understood a little bit now.
To keep the house well, it wouldn’t be like a war or a rebellion between humans. It would certainly not be a thief and would have something to do with Utuka.
If it is related to Utuka, it is very easy to predict.
“When?”
[From that day.]
That day would be the day when the time earned through Bastet’s grace ended.
“What are you talking about?”
As Setas intervened from the side, Bastet’s front paw slapped Setas on the forehead as if to stop interfering.
“Oh, Mr. Seriously!”
Setas was rebelling now that he had grown up, but Bastet neatly ignored him with an arrogant look and tapped the back of his head with his tail. On the surface, they argue, but now they both seem to be enjoying themselves.
“That’s not to say it’s not just one open. It will open all over the world.”
“Can normal people stop that?”
Setas pointed at monsters emerging from dimensional holes. As soon as one jumped out, Shaq’s open mind sword shattered it and fell. It was Argin who charged Shark afterwards. It looks very easy, but of course you can’t stop it. In order to stop one, the best of a considerable number of countries must fight with a half-sacrifice.
[The newly opened door does not open wide.]
For some reason, Bastet immediately gave an answer. It’s a different story if you think about the time when the dimensional hole was first created. If relatively small and weak objects push out in quantity like that time, they can be blocked. Over the years, humans have grown up. If you think about the first time the hole was opened, now, in most countries, at least one hole can be blocked. I don’t know if the henchmen prepared for this, but there is also a way to distribute Aeromyteen to each country.
“Wouldn’t killing Utuka solve the problem?”
This is the simplest solution. Utuka’s avatar will come out of the dimensional hole that opens first, and we have to fight it and win. Then the other holes will be closed too.
The question is, can this be communicated to humans? Can I tell you to go back and prepare and pray that we will defeat the god Utuka, since in a year the dimensional holes will open in many places in the world?
In Setas’ laboratory, the organs for creating the phase dimension were moved and set up. Heads of each country looked at what it was all about, but they did not explain.
“Is it possible to enter the created phase dimension?”
“Well, it’s not completely free, but to some extent it is possible.”
Once you enter, there is a possibility that you will not come out until you see the end. You should prepare for that too.
In the end, it was decided not to tell the allies what would happen in a year. You never know where a new hole will open anyway. i can’t solve everything
However, the raw material of Aeromyteen was distributed to the representatives of each country. I did not forget to warn you that if you use this for a bad purpose, you will definitely pay the price. I plan to get it back when this situation is over.
The plan progressed slowly. It wasn’t that easy to open the phase dimension even after installing all the equipment.
I stopped by Lena and Nivea from time to time to inform them of the current situation. I want to send them back to the new continent, but it’s not safe now. Considering the size of the land, there is a possibility that there will be one or two or three or four holes in the new continent. In that case, the new continent with an absolute lack of population could be rather dangerous.
In order to purify the land here, it is also necessary for Lena to remain here.
From noble mtl dot com.
The Akasha Territory, the New Continent, and the Tempest Territory began to leave first, leaving behind the Akasha Territory knights and 10 androids to protect Lena and Nivea.
Elves, witches, and druids from the New World were also sent back. Peace did not follow the druid this time and remained here.
When some of them left without consulting, I heard a voice of protest, but I ignored it. They will all be back sooner or later anyway.
First of all, with William’s permission, the troops of the Aether Empire also decided to retreat. Then, as the Divinity Church decided to return, the allied forces began to disband in earnest.
The time I’ve spent so far is in vain, but I think this method is more suitable for me than having a hard meeting and persuading with good words.
There were still quite a few people left, including the original owner of this territory, the Propene Imperial Army.
And finally, the day came when the phase dimension of Setas was activated. I placed some of the androids to guard the machine that maintains the topological dimension, and asked Duke Itebal of the Propen Empire to do it.
As the 12 machines spread out around the dimensional hole started to operate, I felt a huge energy condensing around me.
Eventually, as the condensed energy rushed around the hole, monsters poured out frantically as if they felt something strange from the other side. However, it was a meaningless rebellion in front of all the forces that included me and Setas.
While arranging the pouring monsters, a phenomenon occurred in which the pitch-black hole was covered with blue energy for an instant. And no more monsters came out.
“It’s a success.”
Setas jumped in place, delighted. There were concerns from Setas that it might not succeed at once, but luckily it succeeded at once. The battlefield was now set up for Utuka to fight without harming the world.
“Well then, shall we go in?”
