193 – come and get you`re love
There is this sentence in philosopher Jean Rostand’s book ‘thoughts of a Biologist’.
‘If you kill one person, you are a murderer, but if you kill a million people, you are a conqueror, and if you kill all people, you are a god.’
······Currently, I am watching the sight of white phosphorus being successfully ignited.
Standing in the middle of a wide field, you are watching the sight of toxic phosphorus being sprayed in large quantities in the air.
-Rarrr!
However, the scene is quite beautiful to see from a distance.
Fireworks that spread while causing a strong chemical reaction decorate the night sky, and such dazzling light scatters across the earth and spreads in all directions.
-Page! Squeeze!
But a living being surrounded by that beautiful light would rather beg for death.
This is because white phosphorus that melts into the skin like candle wax causes chemical burns and even melts the fat layer, causing a person to die painfully, suffering triple pain from heat burns, chemical burns, and poisoning.
‘It’s not just that.’
Where is that?
Even if you are lucky enough to not be directly exposed to white phosphorus, purulence and gangrene will occur due to the ‘deca-oxidant sign’ that reacts with oxygen in the air.
In other words, the skin will rot or cause strong inflammation due to toxic gases that are harmful to living things.
“hahahaha!!”
Just imagining it is fun.
Disgusting demon bastards dying painfully, begging to be killed.
I feel like attacking their stronghold right now and scattering them all over the land.
‘There are limits to a suit.’
However, in order to spread a large amount of white phosphorus, there must be an aircraft to carry it and fly it, and the only aircraft I currently have is a ‘suit’.
I cannot spray a large amount of white phosphorus on my own.
‘It would be convenient to have a fighter plane.’
So naturally, I thought of a fighter plane.
I thought about the sight of several fighter planes passing by, scattering white phosphorus bombs, as is common in modern warfare.
‘Is it time to move on to fighter planes?’
Tanks have already appeared in this world.
Then, isn’t it time to move on to fighter jets?
‘But…’
However, fighter jets require more demanding technical difficulties.
Of course, it is possible to make enough, but even so, at the current level, all there is is a fighter plane with ambiguous performance ranging from ‘prop plane’ to ‘inter-war era’.
It is far from what I think of as a modern fighter jet.
‘In that case, let’s improve the Gryphon Rider.’
For this reason, unless you are going to mass produce high-performance fighter jets, it is better to use the Gryphon Rider.
This is the elite unit of the ‘Isilian Kingdom’ that caused great damage to the empire in the great war eight years ago.
Each of the Griffon Riders, armed with Oriharkon and steel, has the combat power of a top-level Sword Expert.
Because it flies in the sky and fires magic at will, it is bound to be difficult for the enemy country it is dealing with.
‘Well, it’s different now.’
However, that was a story from eight years ago, and it is different now that the empire is expanding again.
Currently, the Empire is opening ports around the world, led by dreadnought battleships, and its influence is incomparable to what it was eight years ago.
Also, instead of renting a Griffon Rider, if you make them an attractive offer and an amount that they cannot refuse, they will gladly lend it to you.
The saying, ‘If you can partner with Edgar Fix, you will be making a lot of money’ is commonly used not only in the empire but also in faraway countries, so if I make a business proposal, it will be welcomed with open arms.
“Hmm. “Then, let’s just use Gryphon Rider instead.”
So, I decided to improve the Gryphon Rider rather than mass-produce fighter jets.
Instead of investing resources into mass producing a fighter with vague performance, it would be much more economical and less time-consuming to upgrade the historically proven Gryphon Rider.
‘And…’
And if I were to develop a fighter jet, I would definitely develop ‘one’ rather than mass-produce several.
So, the fighter plane I will ride. No, we are developing an aircraft carrier that can carry ‘my people’.
Of course, for that to be possible, it would be necessary to fortify and systemize my entire city first.
‘Anyway…’
Anyway, now we need an elite unit that can scatter large-scale white phosphorus bombs in the air.
I guess I’ll have to stop by Isilian Kingdom sometime soon.

“Isabella, it’s time.”
Today.
Today is the day of showdown with Adrian Graham.
A more accurate expression would be to say that it was a historic day that broke away the shackles of the Graham family’s long-standing misfortune.
Currently, Isabella and I are planning to eliminate Lilith, Graham’s shadow, and stop the waves of monsters pouring in from the North.
“Phew… I’m ready. Let’s go.”
And Isabella, who was currently standing next to me, had clearer eyes than ever.
She has completely abandoned negativity.
Currently, she has gradually abandoned her denial over the course of about three months, and she is mentally healthier than ever before and has recovered much of her pain.
Of course, since he has abandoned the unique strength he has accumulated over 19 years, his fighting power is not as good as before, but he has been improving his fighting power by learning the ‘freezing technique’ from Elena.
And her achievements in accepting new techniques…
-You’re a genius. Just a genius.
To borrow Elena’s words, it is enormous.
In the first place, for Isabella, her ‘denial’ was not a force that strengthened her, but rather her shackles.
A shackle blocking her magical talent.
-I plan to teach you ancient techniques.
So, Elena says that Isabella has a great talent for freezing techniques and plans to teach her the ancient techniques related to it.
Isabella, who abandoned her family’s dark fate, became a magician and…
“Thank you… “I will slowly repay this favor by your side… Spread out, for the rest of my life…”
I am growing as a woman.
She originally expressed her feelings to me by revealing her appearance only once in her 49 days, but now she expresses her feelings to me every time.
“They say that if a person suddenly changes, he dies.”
“What? Do you want to die!?”
So we ended up exchanging jokes.
Well, still, Isabella is Isabella, and although she still has a bit of a picky and mischievous side, she is at a level of charm compared to before.
“It means killing the person you used to be. “As of today, I will be throwing away my ‘Graham’ mission.”
“Anyway, it escapes like a ghost.”
“···Shall we leave?”
“Okay. “I’ll pass on.”
So we moved to Graham’s Castle, in the northern part of the country where the cold was fierce.
Soon, we arrived at the center of Graham Castle and were able to see Adrian Graham sitting on the old throne (the throne that was there during the time of Graham’s ‘kingdom’) looking down at us.
Adrian said with a formal smile.
“Lord Pix, the Empire’s richest man and engineer, the Emperor’s confidant, the Lord of Salvation, the owner of the Dreadnought, the Knight in Black Armor, and the creator of all those qualifiers, why did you come to my castle? “With my daughter next to me.”
At first glance, it may seem like a compliment to me, but it is actually a meaningful statement.
In other words, I don’t care about a great guy like you.
Unlike his words of praise, his eyes and mood as he looked down at me did not match at all.
“Give me your daughter.”
From noble mtl dot com
However, not to be outdone, I uttered a rather typical line.
Adrian’s face, which had been smiling the whole time, hardened.
“···Are you saying that rather than my daughter having the ball, the ball will have my daughter?”
“Yes.”
“······It has retreated.”
The last line is spoken while looking at Isabella.
In other words, it is not that Isabella has me to increase her denial, but to reprimand her for abandoning her denial and connecting with me.
“···The Duke is clearly the best husband and son-in-law in the empire, no, he is a future powerhouse with more value than that. However, every family has its own values that cannot be compromised.”
A suffocating amount of denial overflowed from Adrian’s body.
His angry eyes turned to me and Isabella.
“And the one who undermined that value is Graham’s enemy!”
Graham’s enemy.
So, no matter how great a country is, it will be considered an enemy?
-Shoouuut!
In fact, his negativity was pouring in with hostility towards me.
When his denial finally enveloped us, Adrian revealed his true feelings.
“Isabella, come here. I’ll forgive you this once, so get away from him and come to me. “If you defy my mercy, I will tear your spirit to shreds.”
Adrian’s denial contains tremendous hatred and self-loathing.
However, in that situation, I pressed a button around my neck.
Isabella also copied my actions.
Then, in an instant, a mask was put on and ’emotional filtering’ began to operate.
The function of blocking all negative emotions that cause mental destruction is activated.
[Ding~ Ding Ding~♪ Ding~ Ding~ Ding~♬]
Instead, a song began to flow from the earphones connected to the mask.
It was a leisurely and leisurely Jeonju, as if a rich man playing the guitar while warming up cup noodles.
[Hail~]
And the following lyrics in English.
At the same time, Adrian’s denial devours us.
[What`s the matter with your head, yeah~(What are you so worried about? Yeah~)]
Then the images of hatred and anger he had accumulated began to pour out.
Indeed, it was a power that could be said to belong to the matriarch who had accepted Graham’s fate and had been accumulating negativity for much longer than Isabella.
[Hail~]
But regardless, the song flows.
We just hum.
[What`s the matter with your mind and your sign an-a oh-oh-oh(What is it that you don’t like so much? Even your behavior shows it. Oh~oh~oh~)]
“······What are you doing now?”
Then Adrian, embarrassed, looked at us and frowned.
With more detailed denial pouring in, the song was entering the chorus.
[Nothin` the matter with your head baby find it, come on and find it]]
“Why isn’t my power working!”
[Hail~~ with it, baby cause you`re fine and you`re mine and you look so divine]
Adrian is extremely angry.
We held hands and hummed a song.
Ah, I feel so sorry for you for not knowing the wonderfulness of love.
[Come and get your love~ come and get your love~~(Come and get your love~ Come and get your love~)]
We smiled while listening to the highlights of the song.
This is because from now on, I promised to escape from the shadow of Graham, who was so depressing as hell, and to only do happy and enjoyable things.
Isabella is happy, but the only one who is sad is you, Adrian, who accepted Graham’s fate.
“Father, let go of your anger. “I just came to talk.”
And Isabella, filled with her love, called Adrian ‘father’ instead of ‘you’ for the first time in seven years.
Adrian muttered with a somewhat clueless expression.
“···What?”
Isabella always pushed away Adrian’s denial with stronger denial.
However, in this episode, she cleared away his denial with just a few warm words.
She said with a smile.
“I came here knowing everything. What burden is your father carrying? “I came here to tell you to put that thing down.”
···Adrian’s solemn expression collapsed.
