5 Diplomatic… Something – 1 (1/2)
(Vladmir's POV)
I bite the burger, naked with my hair still a bit wet. God, I love burgers. I ate so many of them when I visited America. I lived in japan most of my life due some game tournaments that happened, but in the end, they didn't have burgers good as the American ones, and certainly a far cry from this one that I have in hands.
Of course, I'm in my room. Behind me, the soft breath of a woman fills the air. This body is amazing, the size is similar to me back there, when I was already an adult. Well, I'm short in height, size is different, if you get my meaning.
I also have a lot of stamina, apparently Lucas was a natural athlete. Combined with the several nights in hotels with fans that threw themselves at me, I'm quite healthy. The woman is my personal doctor, Lyssa Rinehart, a glamorous blonde with green eyes and fair white skin with well-proportioned body.
She has quite a nice personality too, quite gentle and caring. And, as the ones summoned by me, she has quite an obsession with me. She even asked me earlier if I wanted to call some of the other doctors in the army, as they are all female for some reason, as all the marines are males.
Also, one more thing that I discovered is that the monsters can be used to fuel the war machine that is me and my army. They have stones inside their bodies that can be used. The value that I can take is one class lower than their actual class. For example, a class seven ha a class 6 core, and so on.
And now, I'm looking at the computer's screen, at the status of my army. I ordered the SCVs to make an Engineering Bay. When that's done, I'll be able to create more troops and improve the weapons and armor.
Unfortunately, I can't train some troops because of my lack of psychic power. For example, if I want to train banshees, a ship that attacks ground troops and has cloaking, I need to learn cloaking first. Since we don't have cloaking devices, I need to learn cloaking through psychic means.
That means, learning to bend light to turn invisible, the same technique as the Protoss dark templars. It would be complicated if I couldn't understand the principle of optical camouflage, but since I know how it works, it shouldn't be too hard when I have enough power. I want to train my powers more. I should go back to training my body as well. I need to be fit after all.
(meanwhile, in the capita city of Hara Kingdom, magic and sorcery academy, 3° person POV)
A girl sits in a bed, her eyes bloodshot and swollen from crying. Her long and previously smooth red hair is completely messed up, the skin is even paler than normal. In her hands, a letter that has some wrinkles is open.
Recently, half a year before, this girl left her city because she was discovered to have magic talent, and was forcefully sent to the magic and sorcery academy in the capital. She used to be the daughter of the baron that ruled the city, but now she received the terrible news.
The city that her father ruled, where the boy that she loved was, was completely destroyed, without any survivors. However, the letter in her hands isn't the one that came with the notice two days ago, but the last letter that she ever received from the boy.
She promised to exchange letters with him, but soon the letters stopped coming. She though it was strange for him to stop, and the content mentioned that she3 didn't send any letters. The weekly letters turned monthly, and when she investigated, she discovered that one of the nobles inside the academy was blocking her letters.
And now… it seems that she will ever seen her beloved again and parents again.
(girl): ”Father… Mother… Lucas…”
Muttering what she used to call them, she starts to cry again.
(in the beastman village, inside the communal hall)
The leaders of the beastman families and their followers debate with great vigor inside the communal hall. The reason is the metal army in the Lonely Peak. Some of the older ones say that they should gather forces and attack, and the others say that should change locations, and only a few say that they should try to have a good relationship. After all, inside those armors, there may be beastman.
Wolf frowns and screams:
(Wolf): ”SHUT UP!”
His powerful shout creates a sudden silence. He sighs, his oldest daughter sitting by his side, in silence, still a bit shocked from what she heard from her father.
(Wolf): ”Did any of you even heard what I said?! Attack them?! What do you have in your mind?!”
(elder): ”It's still a fact that they threaten our life hood here in this area! We sacrificed too much to get here! If we run away, we will lose everything!”
The elder of the dog tribe screamed back. The younger elder of the cat tribe, that was recently elected, retorted:
(cat elder): ”Even so, you should clean your ears! Did they grow deaf with age?! Even of we could breach their armors, their weapons would tear us to shred before we even approach! We should try to negotiate with them!”
