Weapon seller in the world of magic

Just like the weapons, every assistant robot can be sold in the store for 200 gold coins each but Mark didn’t want to sell these ones despite the fact that they were only suitable to do menial tasks.

He was worried that some people are smart enough to make them do other tasks than the ones they were designed for.

For example, Mark himself wanted to use these rank-1 robots to operate the tanks in the war. All they need to know is how to drive and press the triggers to launch warheads.

With his manpower, he hoped to create his own army, strong enough to wipe out any force that tries to go against him.

He summoned two of them, one is a butler, and the other is a fighter.

They look a bit different from the one he had seen at the factory.

The one at the factory was like a cute assistant robot one would see at the restaurants but the one that was created is completely made of metal and is humanoid in appearance.

”Good morning, master. What you would like me to do? Waiting for input.” Both of them spoke to him at the same time, although with different gestures.

The fighter robot greeted Mark by bending one knee and saluting with its hand on the chest part. On the other hand, the butler robot greeted with a deep bow.

Looking at the 6ft robots, an inch taller than Mark, the latter mumbled, ”From top to bottom, they looked exactly the same as the robots from Avengers, although none have consciousness on their own like Alina and Allen. Maybe, the system is like Ultron or something? Anyway, this one will do.”

He inspected one after another.

”Okay, good. I guess I can proceed with the next step, soon enough. These fighter robots will be the ones that will change the tide of the war at any time.”

Two days later;

”I’ll be leaving, Your highness.” Mark bowed slightly to the second prince. The latter nodded in response.

There was an attack helicopter parked behind them. Alina was sitting inside the pilot seat.

He got inside and closed the door.

The helicopter started to fly higher before disappearing into the horizon, not that they flew for very long because of less fuel. Mark only opts for this route to look cool while leaving. There’s also a howitzer he wanted to keep a secret from the prince.

After traveling like hundred kilometers, emptying the fuel energy by 98%, they got down and traveled in a howitzer.

Meanwhile, at Western Yan’s capital city, the troops were being assembled at the castle where Ji Clan currently resides.

Inside the castle, elders of the clan were gathered for a meeting. An Arch Bishop from the Church of Nuwa was sent to this emergency meeting as a representative to resolve the situation.

”You cannot talk me out of this, Arch Bishop Ma. Today, I will destroy those rats once in for all.” An elderly fellow is fuming in anger, momentarily forgetting the status of Ma Yinglin.

But, the Arch Bishop was patient since the matter is serious and the person beside him is a seven-circle realm expert who is known for having short temper.

Ma Yinglin spoke, ”Grand Elder Ji, I will be straight with you.

Kunyu mountain range is vast. There are thousands of caves. It is difficult to find their hideout even if the whole imperial army is deployed.

Moreover, this region used to be in the control of the Feng clan for a long time. We don’t know how many spies are located even within the walls of this castle, much less in the city.

If the enemies find out about your movements, they wouldn’t hesitate to cut down your child’s head as they have warned. Young master Ji isn’t just your son but he is also an important knight for us to gain a foothold in the Imperial City. Cardinal would want you to treat this matter without any violence.”

The Arch bishop’s advice made the grand elder angry. He slammed the table, ”so, you want me to empty our entire treasury to hand over 500,000 gold coins to those bastards? There’s no way in hell I would give away half of our Ji Clan’s wealth.”

”No, that’s not what I meant.” The Arch Bishop was calm. ”Our Cardinal just doesn’t want to spill the blood of the soldiers unless it’s necessary. From what we know so far, he was abducted at the dungeon but it is far away from even the Kunyu mountain range.

The rebels didn’t have the courage to step out of their fortress. So, we can be assured that someone or some people from the outside are powerful enough to wipe out four of our elite members and abduct young master Guangli.

If we can find out their identity and capture them, it will lead us straight to the hideout. I ask you to be patient for a while.

Our investigation team is already doing everything it can to gather the clues of the culprit. ”

The grand elder of the Ji Clan became silent for a while. Eventually, he nodded, ”fine, three days. I’ll wait for three days. After that, we will go to war. I showed them mercy for a whole decade but no more…”

After convincing the grand elder of Ji Clan, the archbishop returned to their headquarters.

A young man was waiting for him in the cardinal’s chamber. He had long golden hair, pointy ears, emerald-colored eyes, and was charming. It’s not a secret that he is an elf.

The Arch Bishop greeted on one knee, ”Your Eminence.”

The young man nodded with a smile, ”stand up, Arch Bishop Ma.”

This 20-odd-year-old young man is none other than the cardinal, who was blessed by the goddess Nuwa.

Originally, a prince of Leon Empire, Shi En was given to the church of Nuwa as an offering by his father for removing a powerful curse on Grand Emperor (Retired Emperor), although it was mostly due to the fact that the elders wanted to get rid of him as soon as his elven mother died in childbirth.

The archbishop recited everything that happened at the Ji castle.

Shi En fell into thoughts for a while. In the end, he gave an order, ”continue with the investigation. Meanwhile, send a letter to the Imperial Palace. Let the fifth princess raise a ruckus and keep those bandits occupied.”

”But, your eminence, what if they kill the boy?” The Arch Bishop displayed his worry, to which, the young cardinal answered, ”that’s why we’ll offer the ransom they demanded the Ji Clan but will not hand it over right away.”
