985 Getting Everything Sorted Out
Kiddo, let me tell you this… Facing Hescos isn’t a simple matter or joke! We even anticipated them to aim for the scorching ground once they’d know about your presence and threat. So we didn’t just grant you access to ten worlds like you asked before, but got you access to all the worlds taking part in the apocalypse! Why do you think we did that in your opinion? Come on genius, give me that rude speech again and I’ll come personally and teach you a f*cking lesson!!
Ahem… I have to admit… I was wrong
Indeed you are! We didn’t just get you and throw you to wolves without properly arming you with everything that would help! You have to just know the entire story, hearing all sides before judging like this!
Sorry, it was my fault well… I had to admit I was in the wrong here. When I recalled all the harsh and rude words I sent over to him, I felt regretful.
I was a bit rash when I got to know all these secrets about Hescos. I jumped into conclusions without asking them about their reasons.
And unlike what I thought, they did care! And they tried to help me succeed, not what I just misunderstood before.
Learn your lessons, kiddo. The universe isn’t a nice place to live in! And as you grow stronger, you’ll face many of these twisted and complicated situations. And you are riding a rocket on your journey to the top! So learn and don’t commit such mistakes again. Luckily I got to understand your reasons, or else if another one, any impatient dude over there got to hear what you just said, then you’d be in deep trouble
Thanks, I’ll learn from my mistakes for sure I got to get over his storm of rage. He got all the right to be mad, and hopefully this wouldn’t snowball into something I wouldn’t control.
Fine! As you got to know everything, I have to say you have a harsh foe to deal with. Don’t lean towards security, never get satisfied with whatever you got. No matter how you think you are ready, your enemy will always surprise you
I got it. I’m doing everything in my power to prepare for them
Don’t waste time then start training. It won’t help if your forces are numerous and mighty. If their king is weak and gets himself into a desperate situation, all of this will crumble down!
I’m not weak! And I’m not slacking!
Good to hear. Then let me tell you one final piece… That mistake that made the Hescos know about your existence was our faults indeed, but we pushed it forward and started to spread false rumours about you
What?
We emphasised over the fact that you came from the human race, a race that didn’t have any known potential at cultivation. We also spread news that you have a crazy thing towards getting humans from all sources, only humans and nothing else
This…
We are trying to make the enemy fall deeper in this trap. If they got that you only have humans and they got no cultivation bases, then it would be only logic for them to keep coming at you without getting prepared enough
I see… I said while realising that they cared even about such a small thing.
It’s not that big, so don’t depend on it too much. It might just help you at first, but your enemy… They are meticulous and pretty damn focused about details. So, even if we managed to fool them, once your forces finished fighting them for couple of battles, they’ll get to know what trap they fell in
I see… So this will only work at first, right?
Only at the beginning, then expect things to go worse from there on
Hmm… Let me think about this then…
What do you have in your little dirty mind? Come on, I told you everything, so you shouldn’t keep anything off me
I’m just having a thought… A mere thought…
Spill it out then! Don’t leave me hanged like this
I don’t have anything for real, but I’m thinking… What, and I’m just saying what if, I managed to find another way to harm them. Won’t it help?
Another way? Do you think we didn’t try such things before? We did, and we failed!
I’m saying what if I succeeded, then I can just open the fight using these weapons without the need to use any cultivation based forces, right?
Of course if such crazy scenarios succeed, then you can do it. But I’m telling you it won’t!
Well… Let’s pray it will
If it did, then you have to share such things with us
Hahahaha, of course, of course I’ll share these with my allies. But it will come at a huge price
Don’t dream about getting your bones back
I’m not! I’m thinking about knowing at last what was special about my bones
This…
Hahahaha! This will be the price, or part of what I’ll ask for. So get ready
First you have to make it happen
I will… I thought about old Gan and his passion towards knowing the secrets about Hescos’ suits.
If he was half the man I took him for, then he’d be able to make such a groundbreaking discovery.
And the main problem about mass producing such things would be solved in a few hours.
We lacked lots of great minds to work on such things, but that was over. Right now Lily was coming towards me with tens of thousands of such great minds.
And that wasn’t all! If my calculations were right, then in the remaining five months from the fifth quest, I could buy them enough time to have one more generation born and raised enough to help them in their work.
Great! Things turned out to be so great! Everything that looked like a mess at the start ended up to be like this.
Well… Everything I got against the Toranks got solved in such an unexpected way. They did their part, in secret and kept me in the dark, yes, but they still did their part.
Good spirit and foolish hopes of kids… Anyway, when do you want your Hescos to be delivered? And where?
