I Became a Soul Eater

The life force I emitted began to press down on the surroundings to the point of causing physical force.

This is a slightly modified version of Howard’s technique, but when I made it stronger than in practice, it’s much more powerful than I thought.

In fact, I thought it wouldn’t be bad to just kill Shalltear on the spot. Therefore, this life is mixed with sincerity.

“My, please…”

Shalltear’s barely uttered words softened his life a little.

“I am not afraid of William either. I’m just setting an example because I’m the monarch of the country I belong to. But do you think I care about your petty authority and power?”

Before I knew it, three modified humans appeared and surrounded Shalltear. It’s not even necessary for them to come out, but it seemed that they were responding to my life and approaching me.

“are you okay. Rather than that, grab the person spying from far away and don’t hurt them.”

At my command, the modified humans disappeared on the spot. Originally, the modified human beings, who had the level of a beginner level master, became better than that after several years of improvement. Now it will be about the same as the old Argin.

Shalltear will also remember the faces of two of the modified humans that appeared. It was because there were two people who briefly joined the Royal Guard when the Principality of Nebra was established.

“Shall we send those people to the Principality of Nebra? By the way, they are warriors of a similar level to Argin.”

Shalltear’s face, who was already tired of living and barely breathing, turned even whiter. It was Shalltear who witnessed Argin’s prowess right there on the spot.

I watched from beginning to end how in vain the tens of thousands of troops collapsed in front of that overwhelming power. But not one, but three.

“Three is not the end. There are about twenty of them.”

The number of advanced modified humans, which were five, has increased considerably now. Anyway, the enemy I think is not a human being. You have to fight Utuka, who is presumed to be a fairly powerful god. It’s not 20 remodeled people like that, it’s an opponent who doesn’t know what will happen even if there are thousands.

“And if you forgot, you are the one who broke into my mansion in the first place to kill me and take Ben Bezalel. However, she saved her life and developed her skills purely through my kindness, became the empress, and even became the monarch of the principality. But what am I to think of what you have done to me now?”

I freed myself to live. I was quite worried about just killing her, but if Shalltear died now, it would cause a lot of trouble. The Principality of Nebra, whose monarch suddenly disappeared without a successor, would disintegrate in the air, and if the Aether Empire tried to absorb it as it was, the neighboring countries would not stand still again.

And Shalltear suddenly died? William and Imperial Intelligence aren’t that stupid. Of course you will know that I did it. He wasn’t afraid of William or the Empire, but he didn’t want to be recognized as someone who could kill the empress at any time.

Shalltear collapsed on the spot, gasping for breath. I walked over to Shalltear and looked straight into her frightened eyes.

“Don’t forget. There are so many opponents in the world who do not work with that little power and authority you have.”

Of course, most of them are people around me. I left Shalltear lying around and moved to meet the person the modified humans had captured.

Shalltear is basically not a stupid woman. If you feel anything, it will change in the future. It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t change. Then it’s just that kind of existence.

When I moved to space movement, I saw a person who was imprisoned as if he was imprisoned by the aura drawn from the sword by the modified humans. I said hello first.

“hello. Count Fersen Neymas”

The person who had the strongest influence on the battlefield was captured by the remodeled humans. When Shalltear moved alone, he followed the energy.

“Who are you?”

Even when he was imprisoned in Auror, Fersen, who had shown a slightly relaxed appearance, was visibly nervous when I appeared.

I think it’s because I can’t see my eyes, so I feel good. I motioned for the remodeled humans to step back.

“If I say St. Germain Akasha, would you know it?”

“I have lived with the world behind me for a long time, but there is no way I do not know the most famous person on the continent. I don’t know how you know me, but my name is Persen Neymas.”

Fersen greeted me quite skillfully with courtesy. It was such a skillful movement that one would not be considered blind if one had not covered one’s eyes with a black cloth.

“Though the circumstances are not good, I am also honored to meet the mineral pilot in person.”

Fersen Neymas has been an object of observation for me since he appeared in the world. Thanks to this, he sent his alter ego to the depths of the entire continent to explore.

“It’s embarrassing, but there is such a falsehood. It’s been a while since I came into the world, but it’s the first time I’ve ever seen someone like the Holy Son. Should I say the second?”

“Which part is that?”

“It doesn’t look human.”

No, in front of people, I don’t think it’s human, and I don’t think it’s too much to be rude. Of course, I’m not a pure human, so I should say that I have good senses.

“Who is the first?”

“There is a gigantic being that travels very deep underground. I’ve only encountered it once, but it was something I couldn’t do with my own abilities. I am alive because the being ignored me, otherwise it would be dead. The saint has a similar feeling to that being.”

I thought I had explored the underground world quite a bit, but there seems to be a part I still don’t know. Of course, I know quite a bit about the human world on earth, but there are still many things I don’t know.

Neither the underworld nor the vast sea would be less than 1% of the total that I explored.

“I would like to hear more about its existence.”

I took out a table, chair, and even a tea set from the subspace, made tea, and handed it over to Fersen.

Fersen sipped his tea without straining now, and spoke in detail about the transcendent being he had encountered.

“This car is really nice.”

“It is the finest among the teas grown by the elves.”

“I see, this is the elf car you’ve only heard about.”

“If you like it, I’ll bring you some.”

“Aigoo, thank you.”

Anyone who sees it will know that they have been friends for about 10 years. Isn’t the affinity too good for someone who has lived underground for decades alone?

But I know better that this is not Fersen’s usual appearance. I’m not originally this kind of person.

“We must be enemies now, right?”

Putting down the finished teacup, Persen asked cautiously. I answered by filling the empty teacup.

“Enemy? I have never been in this war. We plan to do so in the future.”

“Then what about them?”

What Fersen was talking about were the modified humans still waiting around.

“So are you. I am here because the lord of this place, Nivea Christine, is my lover.”

“okay. If so, you are relieved.”

“What would you do if I told you that I would join the war?”

“Do you have any thoughts? He would have died here today.”

“Then Count Neymas owes me his life once.”

A person with these specialized abilities will be useful someday. His personality isn’t too bad, and he’s doing his own important job of protecting the Dragon Mountains.

“Let’s do it like that.”

It was half-joking, but Fersen Neymas nodded without hesitation. What are you thinking? I’m a saint in my own way, but did you think that even if it’s a little dark place, I’ll just slap and slap my throat?

Fersen and I talked for quite some time and parted ways.

“Then I’ll just leave.”

“Please take a look”

After returning, Fersen Neymas immediately apologized to the Momon Surfers and left the battlefield to return home. Fersen didn’t talk about me until the end.

The Momon Surfers were puzzled by Fersen’s sudden behavior, but they couldn’t force it. If Fersen left like this, the power would be weakened right away, and Shalltear, who was already shocked, led the Nebra army and completely retreated to their own territory.

Due to an incident at the end of the war, the borders were left as they were without any negotiations. It was a war in which both countries suffered great losses without any gains.

Shalltear went back to the castle and went into seclusion without going outside. The Momon Surfers turned their heads and attacked Cython’s castle, leaving only a few soldiers on the border.

From the eyes of the people, it was an improvement army, but the situation inside was different. The Momon Surfers charged into the palace, checked the state of their only nephew, and beat Achim Cython, the king of Cython, to the point of literally not dying. It was an act close to treason, but no one could stop it.

When the war ended and calmed down, I was convinced that I had completely escaped my foreknowledge. However, I couldn’t find a reason to turn Cython’s capital into a sea of fire. What was it that made me so angry?

While working on records as usual in the Akasha estate, he was researching the leopard skin that he received from Ctula and was said to have belonged to Seshat.

I’ve experimented with quite a few different ways, but haven’t figured out how to use it yet. You cannot use it as is.

I wondered if I could just use it, so I put on my face, imitated a leopard, and tried everything.

I’ll have to figure out a way to process it, but since Drakan gave me a needle, I can only guess that I’ll have to use it to sew.

Even if it’s research, I’ve already done everything that I can do after listening to the opinions of many people. At a time like this, it would be nice if Bastet threw out a word as usual and gave advice in passing, but Bastet kept her mouth shut.

So I was just fiddling around with the leather. The texture of the leopard skin, which is a reflection chain, is quite subtle. Maybe it’s because of the difference in ability, but it doesn’t feel like a cat like Bastet.

It doesn’t look like ordinary leather to the naked eye, but the texture is the same. Should I say that it feels like soft jelly and feels like tough leather at the same time?

Clones can also be temporarily transformed into reflections now, but reflections aren’t quite familiar yet. Just like when I first started making alter egos, I think it will take quite a while to fully adapt.

At that time, Wither came to visit. There aren’t many times when Wither visits me for work. In fact, the Akasha estate is run by Wither as if it were a lord. It was almost delegating full power, and it had been doing well for quite a long time.

In words, he always leaves all the work to the people below him and says he lives comfortably, but when he actually works, he only manages the people below him efficiently and does a lot of work behind the scenes.

Anyway, I think it’s the most successful recruitment among the people I hired myself.

Such a Wither brought me a job after a long time. You already know the content. There is a plan to build a waterway within the Akasha territory, but it is a fairly large amount even by the standards of the Akasha territory, so it is to ask for permission.

I have such an excuse on the outside, but in fact, I know that if you bring an agenda with such content to me, I will solve it myself without spending money.

Wither is the only one who can bring me a job under the guise of such a payment. Some I do myself, while others I just let the money go.

There are times when hiring people and using money has a good effect on the economy of the territory. This is what I have to do.

The Akasha estate has grown in size with many people now, but most of them already have their own jobs. Although the scale of waterway construction is large, there is no manpower willing to enter temporary positions.

Speaking of hiring people, there would be a way to hire wizards, but those people had a lot of other things to do besides this.

“There is something that needs your approval, lord.”

Wither held out a thick bundle of papers, but he already knew the contents, so there was no need to read them.

“But with that number. Rather than returning it to the outskirts of the territory, how about putting it underground?”

Wither points out what he hadn’t thought of.

From noble mtl dot com.

“There must be a way. But maybe more money will be spent on construction. Of course, we are not short of money, but we have quite a few things going for it.”

I took out a piece of paper, put it on the table, and began sketching out the aqueduct I envisioned.

“I make it this way.”

I studied for quite a long time using the alter ego of civil engineering design. Of course, the dwarves would be better at this, but there was no need to borrow their power for everything.

At that time, the blueprint of the underground canal I was drawing disappeared from the paper. And for a moment, I felt a strange energy from the leopard skin on my lap.
