62 On the Island 2/2 (1/2)

”And what about the discussion with Tepes House about that matter?”

Aske Asmodeus with a curious voice. They were negotiating with Tepes House about the certain sensitive issue. The negotiations were already going for several days for this issue but they still couldn't come to create some agreement.

”About this, I have good news. They have agreed to our proposal under several conditions. Most of them aren't that important but they mainly want full access to every type of knowledge or magic that we came across in the future in exchange for their full support and being part of our plan.”

Asmodeus was rather happy. He proposed a certain proposition to the Tepes House and in the exchange of acceptance of that proposition they wanted full access to all kind of knowledge basically, which was a rather good bargain. They were always like that, completely uninterested in worldly affairs and politics, only caring about their research and magic. But thanks to their nature there weren't any conflicts between Tepes House and Aeon House.

Aeon House was more militaristic and fighting House. They were focused on fighting with demons, other ghoul or creatures and they weren't much interested in researching some technology advances or magic-like things like Tepes House.

”Then its good, they were always interested only in two things. Researching magic and technology and drinking blood. Nothing else couldn't catch the attention of them. By this, we could obtain what we need and they would also be satisfied as they could research many new things.”

Butler Sebastian nodded his head, agreeing to the words of the Asmodeus. Then Asmodeus stood up and walked to the window and started observing the Magitek Infantry soldiers. There were several of them, composed of Armored Assassins and Armored Swordsmen.

Armored Assassin was equipped with a blade in both hands, as most of the magitek soldiers it was tall around two meters and his eyes glowed red. Its main strength was in its high-speed movements and high attacking speed with two blades. They have high resistance against elemental damage and also they are very good at attacking vital points of the enemy.

Armored Swordsman on the other side was equipped with only one weapon and that was engineered sword to kill enemies with overwhelming strength. They were a little weaker than their comrades Armored Assassins, cause Armored Swordsman was base of the Magitek Infantry Army or by another term, they were cannon fodder. But they were able to still create massive damage to the enemy by using their engineered sword. Even though they had slower attacking speed and movement speed compared to the Armored Assassin unit, they had built-in firearms that are rather troublesome to deal with.

”Sebastian look at this. Wonders created by Magitek technology. Even ordinary soldiers created by inferior materials, as we don't have any suitable metals for the creation of magitek infantry as described in the book, but they could still reach Mid-Grade Baron standards. With them, we were able to conquer the first layer of that underground world and could defend against demon much easier compared to the past. Thanks to magitek we were able to obtain much more blood essences and thus raise the strength of our race.”

Said Asmodeus about benefits of Magitek technology for the time.

”And yet, we're still at the beginning of the real Magitek Civilization itself. We were able to unlock only a first part of that book and we didn't even comprehend entire part itself.”
