125 – The collusion of Ian, Bianca, and Luke Clendor

Meanwhile, the chairman of the competition of the Kingdom of Clendor.

Unlike Ed’s steel mill, the atmosphere here is subdued.

This is because Leon’s name was mentioned in the process of discussing the selection of the next expedition leader, which stimulated trauma.

“·····Keuhum!”

Leon Clendor.

Just thinking about him makes his face feel hot even when exposed to cold air.

Not only did Hwang Guk-min get drunk on the Gukbong video that this guy produced, but he also intuitively saw that it was exposed as a lie and he was taught the truth.

“Don’t even mention Prince Leon!”

Because of this, the name ‘Leon’ has become a taboo word.

If we compare it from a modern perspective, it would be like the entire Vietnamese people cheering on the Gukppong video asking, ‘Is Korea afraid of Vietnam’s growth?’

In addition, a Korean teenage girl is crazy about a Vietnamese man, most Korean men are envious of the Vietnamese man’s face, and it is similar to being incited by a video that says Vietnam will become a superpower on par with the United States in the near future. I could see it as it was.

“·····I will tell you straight.”

At that time, the second prince, known as the ‘Light of Clendor’, spoke.

He is a natural genius whose abilities far exceed those of Leon, and is one of the strongest candidates for succession to the throne.

You could guess his status and ability just by looking at the concentration of everyone in the political world on every word he said.

“First of all, the culprit behind this whole situation is my brother’s political ambitions. “We made an unreasonable decision because we were conscious of the fact that we were starting to fall behind in the competition for rankings.”

The second prince said that and looked at his third child sitting across from him.

Bianca Clendor, called ‘the flower of Clendor.’

She is also the future of the Clendor Imperial Family, boasting abilities as outstanding as her second son.

“So, I would like to suggest this to everyone. “At this meeting, we will exclude all political moves and focus only on raising the national prestige of the Klendor Empire.”

The second prince, Ian, who only wants to pursue national interests.

At this, her third princess Bianca saw her younger brother sitting next to her.

Luke Clendor, the future of the empire and a prodigy.

Eventually, when Luke slightly nodded his head, Bianca said to Ian.

“So, what is the way to restore national prestige, brother?”

How to restore national prestige.

Ian smiled.

It’s as if he already knows how to do it.

“Bianca. Among the common sense commonly used around the world since ancient times, there is this saying: “The strongest on land is Orserk, and the strongest at sea is Klendor.”

“······.”

“But my brother’s failure not long ago caused a crack in that common sense. “Currently, the empire looks down on us to the point where a satirical play called ‘Descendants of the Sea God’ is popular.”

“···So?”

“You will participate as the representative of this exploration team. “I will give you full command of the battleship.”

“·····!!!”

The inside of the room was agitated.

Handing over the leadership of her exploration to Bianca was the same as giving her the opportunity to increase her position.

That’s because Bianca has a natural talent for commanding sailboat battles.

“···Are you serious?”

And this was a statement that even Bianca did not expect.

Ian and himself are half-siblings born from different mothers, so their relationship is bound to be rivalry, but he gives up leadership of the fleet so easily.

“Okay. “I’m serious.”

But Ian was sincere.

Her unwavering eyes confirmed her own will.

Even though his aides were embarrassed and hastily tried to stop him, he paid no heed.

“However, it doesn’t mean I won’t participate.”

However, Ian added something ambiguous at the end.

He hands over command of the expedition to Bianca, but she is not left out.

Soon he added the reason.

“Exactly what I want is our joint participation. I will leave command and navigation of the fleet to you, but I will run the ‘sea hunters’ within the fleet. Wouldn’t that be the best way to show off each person’s skills?”

Bianca nodded his head.

Ian is a sea monster hunter who is incomparably superior to Leon.

He takes charge of the fleet and Ian takes command of the sea hunter.

It was an appropriate greeting that took into account each other’s talents.

“···Then what is the way to restore national power?”

So, what is the way to restore the damaged image of Klendor?

Soon, Ian answered Bianca’s question.

“It shows the difference in class. “That’s the difference between battleships.”

“······.”

“Of all the videos my brother filmed, this is the only one that is not fake. That is, our fleet will overwhelm the empire. The reason the empire cannot set foot on our land is because naval warfare itself cannot be established. “You just have to feel the difference.”

···It makes sense.

Although Clendor may be defeated in a man-to-man underwater battle, Clendor is clearly superior in a naval battle pitting battleship against battleship.

“···But will there be a naval battle with the empire? I don’t think that would happen if it weren’t for war. “There is no justification.”

However, Ian’s proposal had little chance of being realized.

Battleship versus battleship cannot occur except in war.

“No, there is a way.”

However, Ian said there was a way.

Soon, he claimed that he could create such a situation under the pretext of ‘training’.

“As you know, don’t we have a rescue ship anchored at the ‘return point’ in case of an emergency? “We are using that rescue ship.”

Rescue ship.

It literally means a ship left behind in preparation for an emergency.

This is an insurance ship left behind to return with a ‘teleport magic sphere’ when the main unit is stranded due to an unexpected accident.

There is a limit to the distance of teleportation, and the only place to teleport in the vast ocean is a ship anchored nearby.

“In other words, we are entrusting the mission of guarding the rescue ship to the Empire guys. “If we make a mistake, the rescue ship may be robbed by pirates.”

“Hmm… Then I guess we can definitely have a reason to train. “Sea battle against pirate ships.”

“Okay. We must use this training as a pretext to make it clear how strong our empire’s fleet is. And this training video could be a cure that will soothe the pain of the people of this country. “What we need now is to restore our pride, which has fallen to rock bottom.”

Bianca nodded.

It may be a bit childish, but there is no better way to restore one’s shattered self-esteem.

In any case, the Empire will not be able to defeat Klendor in a naval battle no matter what they try.

“And that guy named Edgar Fix. “I will catch that guy.”

At that time, Ian gritted his teeth and clenched his fist tightly.

A blue haze rose from his entire body, and its energy spread throughout the venue.

Numerous nobles swallowed their saliva and looked at his angry face.

Soon he opened his mouth.

“He tore our imperial heirlooms to shreds. In addition, all the legends surrounding the ‘Arm of the Sea God’ were made false, and as a result, the authority of our imperial family plummeted to the ground. ····Isn’t it too shameful? “I can’t sleep with my feet up without catching him.”

Bianca and Luke looked at their half-brother’s angry face.

The strongest in underwater warfare, called the hope of Klendor.

A strong candidate for succession to the throne who shows outstanding ability in all abilities to the extent that one might think that the ‘Legend of the Sea God’, a myth created to assert the authority of the imperial family, may be a real story.

“·····How do you plan to catch Edgar Fix?”

It is a great disrespect to him to judge the odds of winning.

As her brother was the strongest among sea hunters who were known for being tough, she couldn’t even imagine losing in an underwater battle.

Rather, what Bianca should worry about is what justification will be used for the confrontation between her brother, the strongest sea hunter, and Edgar Fix.

Isn’t the older brother challenging Edgar Fix to a fight like an adult asking a child for a serious duel?

“There is no need for a duel. “I will kill you with my own hands.”

“······!!!”

However, my brother’s remarks were shocking.

Edgar killed Fix?

Bianca responded with surprise.

“This is such a dangerous idea! “If I make a mistake—!”

“That guy!”

“······?”

“It was done on purpose! Find out that some of our imperial family’s heirlooms are not real artifacts! I mean, I provoked you on purpose! To reveal the secret of the heirloom…!”

“······.”

“I can’t forget that guy’s expression. “That face treacherously twisting the corner of its mouth… I will definitely punish that bastard by twisting his neck.”

“···How?”

“It’s real combat. As you said, it is foolish to cause an accident under the pretext of training. Therefore, we plan to set the route to a different route than usual. “It is the most dangerous route among the Straits of Magentani.”

As Ian said that, he pointed to the route where high-risk sea monsters appear.

Ian twitched the corners of his mouth and continued his next words.

“No matter how much he is a cadet boarding for the purpose of ‘observation’, if he passes by this route, he will have no choice but to participate in underwater warfare. “It will be difficult for the rescue ship on which the cadets board to receive protection from the main unit.”

“····For sure, that’s right.”

“Okay. So, he will believe in his skills and will definitely try to protect the rescue ship. It means jumping into the sea with your own feet. And when that time comes…”

“This is your chance to kill him.”

“Okay. I will kill you. As for the cause of death, it would be enough to say that the arrogant guy attacked a sea monster and died.”

Bianca nodded.

With my brother’s skills, I would be able to quickly cook a minnow that jumped into the sea without any mice or birds.

Because it’s under the sea, there won’t be any evidence left.

“Yes. “Let’s join forces.”

Finally, Bianca smiled and held out her hand to Ian.

Ian also smiled confidently and shook Bianca’s hand.

It was a historic moment when Ian, Bianca & Luke, the biggest enemies of the Klendor Empire, joined hands.

***

A week later.

A letter from Clendor has arrived at the princess.

The content is Prince Ian and Princess Bianca to apologize for an unpleasant incident that occurred previously. And there was news that Prince Luke was also visiting.

In other words, all of the royal family of Klendor will join.

“It’s going smoothly. It’s going smoothly.”

And this time.

Ed was building a shipyard based on iron to be mass-produced for the steel mill.

Finally, they began building factories to manufacture battleships.

However, at this point, Ed had 64 construction robots and was producing high-quality railways in large quantities.

This means that the construction period can be greatly shortened.

‘The technique is definitely good. I can’t believe I can use the workers to my heart’s content.’

In addition, Ed was actively using magic.

‘Recovery spell scrolls’ are purchased in large quantities and used diligently to relieve workers’ fatigue in real time so that labor can be extracted in optimal condition.

Of course, since they were treated with bonuses and delicious meals, the workers who had suffered from famine devoted themselves to their work with grateful hearts.

For those who lived miserable lives day after day, it was nothing short of a blessing to have something to focus on for the future.

Rather, this moment of burning passion day and night was the ultimate joy for them.

“Ugh. “You will be the only disciple who treats his teacher like a disciple.”

“hahahaha. Please help me out, Master.”

And Ed invited a special guest to speed up the shipyard’s production period.

This is Grand Wizard Elena.

She uses her bizarre telekinesis and teleportation abilities to work as a laborer.

“····Well, there’s nothing we can do. It’s also your request. “Only in this way can we advance the exploration schedule.”

As Elena said that, she lifted and moved dozens of tons of steel.

With a relaxed face, without even a hint of distress.

It could be said to be a monster of monsters.

‘It’s so amazing. It is unrivaled even among NPCs.’

Elena, the archmage who boasts the most powerful abilities among the main NPCs.

The extent of that ability was that no matter how much the player tried to fly, crawl, and mess around, he could barely reach her feet.

It makes me wonder what on earth they were thinking when they created such an unbalanced NPC.

That’s because her strength cannot be explained through the worldview of this game.

“Hmm. Then please help me. “I have the next schedule.”

Anyway, that’s it.

There was no time to be lost in thoughts like this.

This is because the development of suits has been slow due to the focus on establishing a shipyard following the establishment of a steel mill.

Elena said, pouting her lips.

“Sheesh. “Are you going to take advantage of me and fall alone?”

“·····hahahaha.”

“I’m kidding. Hurry up and go. “If she makes that kind of expression on her face, I have no choice but to get over it.”

Ed bowed his head to Elena in apology and returned to her own container.

Then Fix, who was working on the suit first, welcomed Ed and joked around with him.

Somehow, he became more charming after I named him Eve.

“Then, shall we begin?”

Ed was very excited when it came time to develop the suit he wanted to do.

Ed laid out the blueprint he had envisioned.

The blueprint in question was a blueprint for a new small torpedo named ‘The Sea God Who Left Home’.

-Cholak.

And Ed took out the following blueprint.

This blueprint was an improved blueprint that further strengthened Ed’s diving suit, the ‘Leviathan’ mode.

This is an upgraded suit with a special spell that allows it to easily absorb mana dissolved in water and use it as a power source.

“Then Fix, let’s get started!”

“Weuuung~!”

Ed took out an equipment toolbox from his inventory.
