Calm madman: What exactly do you want to do?

Faceless>Chlorine: Just like I said. I will create an empire. I will ascend into the hand of the Lord and destroy the faithless gods who defile the world with their existence. I will create and improve my abilities as much as possible in order to achieve peace.

Calm madman: Okay, I get you. Then what will you do first?

Faceless>Chlori: Hmm, I think I'll leave the construction to you for now. Anyway, we didn't even build the tree. That's why I'm probably going to develop my strength. Do you have any idea where this can be done?

Calm madman: Actually, I know one planet, but it's not easy to do. Therefore, for now, I suggest that you do not do physical exercises, but magical ones, for example.

Faceless: * Sounds reasonable.*

Faceless>Chlori: Then, do you have any ideas where I can learn magic?

Calm madman: Well, look. We must go to the king of this kingdom. I think that it will be possible to find out from him.

Faceless Chlori: Okay, then let's go.

Calm madman: I can't yet. I need to think about something. Maybe you should go somewhere?

Faceless: Chlori, do you have any suggestions?

Chlori: Since we're making an empire, I have an idea. In the meantime, can we go to a restaurant?

Faceless: Maybe in the kingdom?

Chlori: It makes sense.

Kradr: I have an idea. May I suggest that you go and examine what weapons the dwarves have?

Faceless>Chlori: Calm madman, how long are you going to think?

The calm madman: In the area of 20 minutes.

"The Faceless One nodded and walked towards the dwarves with Chlori."

Faceless >Chlori: Greetings to you, my dear colleagues. What are you doing? What are you thinking about?

Grelemant: Greetings. How can I suggest you are Faceless?

Faceless>CHLORI: Yes, and this is my translator, Chlori. Please don't hurt her.

Grituun: They would never have dared. Now, we are thinking about what to do. Did you want something?

Faceless>CHLORI: Yes, I would like to know about the combat weapon that you are aware of. And also, what is the heaviest, strongest, hardest material that you know?

Tormilog: I can say that our knowledge is not enough for you. Still, you are of a divine level. But, from what I know, it's a Tripamal. The material itself is not difficult to obtain. It is simply extracted from obsidian caves. But it's extremely difficult to find one. So that you understand, after the eruption of the volcano, we can find obsidian. But how long does it take for it to be on the ground? That's right, a lot. But that's not all, if you find it, then think about it. Obsidian had to be pressurized along with titanium and any material derived from coal. This is exactly what is difficult, since many events must coincide. Its opposite side is Tripimil. A material that is cheaper than rubies, but stronger than diamond. Its properties in the form of lightness and fragility, basically, raise the price. The material, like Tripimal, is mined in obsidian caves, but fused stone and obsidian of this age are needed. As a result of their fusion, Tripimil is obtained. It is easy to mine, but it is not useful for you.

Grelemant: Speaking of Tripimal, I've worked with him all my life, just with my eyes. Watching my mentor work, I was surprised. Every millimeter of this material is not malleable like ordinary metals. To make him the right shape, he will have to work for about six months. Since one side is done for 4 months. And the other side is 2 months old, only because of the correct filling of the mold. There are also disadvantages of working with it. The turning of the material takes place in a strange, for ordinary craftsmen, use. Initially, we heat it to a temperature of about 5500 degrees Celsius, and later sharpen it by cutting the layer at a temperature of about -1200 degrees Celsius. The fine turning is not done by us. The material is sent to the Kingdom of the Elves, where the blade of the sword is sharpened to 0.0045 millimeters with its knowledge and the spirits of nature.

Faceless>Chlori: Thank you, I understand you. And what kind of weapons are there?

Grelemant: I do not have complete information on this issue. After all, not all weapons are sent for forging or tempering. It's better to ask Goutas.

Faceless>Chlori: Okay, I remember. I will definitely ask him. Have a good job, and we're off

Greudonor: Yes, sir. Thank you and wish you the same.

Faceless: Chlori, do we have time to ask the demons for this information?

Chlori: Quite, yes.

"The faceless one took Chlori with him to the Underground."

Rostolia: Yes, what did you want?

Faceless>Chlori: Rostolia, what do you know about the types of weapons?

Rostolia: I use a one-handed sword and claws. Also, in our warehouses, I saw a combat scythe. I don't know more, because everyone is hiding it. To surprise the enemy and win at the military colosseum.

Faceless>Chlori: Got it, thanks.

Faceless: Let's go back.

"Both went to the Calm Madman."

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.

The calm madman: I've thought it over. We can go now.

Faceless>Chlori: What were you thinking about?

Calm madman: That's right. I'll tell you later. Dwarves, do you have a map?

Holmier: No, but you don't need it. It seems like a princess passed through here, right?

Calm madman: Yes, it happened.

Holmier: Does that mean..?

Calm madman: Got it. Faceless, let's go.

"The faceless One, together with Chlori, followed the Calm Madman who was walking to the path. A princess rode along this path, which means that following the carriage path, you can come to the kingdom; a Calm madman came to this conclusion."

--- At this time---

Soy: Father, I have arrived!

Soy's father: Yes, I see. Did you get there well?

Soy: Yes, but there wasn't a big incident on the way.

Soy's father: And what happened?

Ches: Can I report back?

Soy's father: Yes, I allow it.

Ches: Thank you, the King of these lands, Gordon Vremishval. When we were at the Quiet Forest, a demon descended on our path. He immediately started a dialogue and did not attack. Without answering me, he walked past me and found himself at the carriage with Princess Soy Vremishval. I have nothing more to report, because after talking with the princess, he flew away.

Soy V.: Then I will continue. He said to tell you, Father, important information. Of the more important information, he warned that access to the Quiet Forest should be banned for 2 years, since it is not safe there and they are not fixing security. He also informed us that his hosts would be coming to us soon. I think that during today they will arrive.

Gordon V.: Chas, daughter, thank you. Now, Molf, or here!

Molf: Yes, the king. What did you want?

Gordon V.: Have you heard the information?

Molf: Yes.

Gordon V.: In that case, what do you think about the words of the demon that forbade entry to the Quiet Forest?

Molf: I think it would be wise to suspend all activities in this forest. When those people arrive, then we will decide whether to close access or not.

Gordon V.: It's a good decision. But what do you think these people will be?

Molf: In fact, they probably won't be human if they have a demon in their household.

Gordon V.: Yes, it is more likely than a person. Then tell the butler this information and let him decide exactly how to meet them.

Molf: I'm listening!

"Molf left the throne room, through the passage for the king's personal servants."

Gordon V.: Chas, can you tell me about this demon?

Ches: I'll try. The demon, by its movements and intelligent behavior, is most likely A-class. To cope with it, you need to assemble a detachment from the highest league of the army, in the size of about 30 people, and it's not a fact that we will return alive. If we talk about his masters, then we can conclude that they are much stronger than him, since they followed their orders without the slightest doubt.

Gordon V.: About the owners, I came to the same conclusion. Is there a possibility that they have an S-class, or even higher?

Ches: S-class? Ahem, to be honest, if there is at least 1 warrior of this rank, then our entire kingdom will not be enough to defeat him. And... If you were talking about the perfect demons of the zodiac, then aren't these legends?

Gordon V.: I get it, I get you. War is not the best outcome for us... The perfect demons of the zodiac, although a legend, but after more than a dozen years, I came to the conclusion that they still existed. The probability that someone has remained or left offspring for our time is present.

Ches: Then, the presence of such a creature on their side threatens the destruction of all living things in its territory, in case of war. Do you want to make peace or end the conversation on a neutral note?

Gordon V.: As it turns out, of course, I hope for peace.

--- At this time---

Calm madman: I think it's possible to speed up. Grab my shoulder.

"The Faceless One put his hand on the shoulder of the Calm Madman and they began to move towards the royal city using portals. After 15 minutes, they arrived at the entrance to the royal city. There are clock towers at the main gate, but one of them is empty, and there is a sentry on the second one."

Sentry: Who are you?!

Calm madman: We have arrived to meet the king. The princess was supposed to tell you that we were coming!

Sentry: All right, come in!

Calm madman: And how to get to the royal palace?!

Sentry: Go to the palace, you will see it, and then ask!

Calm madman: Okay, thanks!

"Suddenly, the gates began to open. The gate was made as a suspension bridge to cross the moat. As soon as the gate was lowered, the Faceless, Chlori and the Calm Madman entered the city territory."

Calm madman: Yes, indeed, the palace is immediately visible. Do you want to go somewhere or will you go later?

Faceless>Chlorine: We'll go later. Let's start by solving the parting problems.

Calm madman: Good.

"After talking, the three of them began their movement towards the royal palace, where they were already waiting."

--- At this time, the royal palace---

Molf: Great Gordon, we have finished our preparations.

Gordon V.: And what did you do?

Molf: We have removed many things that can anger evil spirits. For example, stuffed animals, artifacts that were obtained after raids on strong monsters. Also, all human representatives of the servants were hidden. There are only beastmen and elves left. Is everything correct?

Gordon V.: Yes, that will be enough.

"There was a knock at the gate of the throne room."

Gordon V.: Yes?

1st Guardian of the Throne Room: Three unknown people arrived at the palace. What should I do with them?

Gordon V.: Does one of them look human?

1st Guardian of the Throne Room: Yes.

Gordon V.: Then let them in and escort them to the royal boardroom.

1st Guardian of the Throne Room: Yes.

Gordon V.: Molf, I went to the boardroom, and you invite Soy there too. Also, come yourself.

Molf: Yes, everything will be fine now.

"King Gordon got up from his throne and went out into the corridor to the left of the throne. The Molf has gone into use for the king's personal servants."

Gordon V.: * I wonder who they really are... Okay, what to think about it now, we'll find out now anyway.*

---Royal Palace, 2nd floor---

???: Gentlemen, my name is Neidcliffe and I am the butler of the 2nd floor. By order of the King, I need to escort you to the royal meeting room. Please follow me.

Calm madman: Nice to meet you. I live with a girl named Chlori and she is my brother's translator.

Neidcliffe: That's a great name for this girl. The door to the boardroom is in front of you.

"Neidcliffe knocked on the door."

Gordon V.: Come in.

"Neidcliffe opened the door."

Neidcliffe: Gentlemen, please come in.

"Chloris, the Calm Madman and the Faceless One entered the royal meeting room."

Calm madman: Hello, as I understand it, you are the king. There's a princess on your right, and there's a counselor standing next to you, right?

Gordon V.: Yes, that's right. I am the king of this kingdom and my name is Gorodon Vremishval. I am the fifth ruler of these lands. This is my daughter Soy Vermishval, and the adviser's name is Mofl.

Calm Madman: Nice to meet you, Gordon Vermischwal, Soy Vermischwal and Mofl. This is my brother's translator, Chlori. My brother and I don't have a name, just a nickname. I am a Calm madman, and my brother is Faceless.

Gordon V.: I wonder who you are and on what issue did you arrive?

Calm madman: Chloris is a human being. I and the Faceless One are not people, but the sons of the progenitor. The question is very simple.

Faceless>Chlori: First of all, it's nice to meet you. The first thing we want to solve. In the forest where the princess met the demon, there is a tree with divine fruits. Approaching him threatens death. No fruit is a source that will give ordinary creatures divine mana, but will only kill them anyway. If you have any questions about this guide, then a Calm madman will tell you. Secondly, this question has appeared recently, I decided to create an empire where there will be no evil. I have an offer for you and three choices. The first option is that you form an alliance with our empire and become a kingdom in the empire under our protection. The second option is that you sign a peace treaty and will be as a separate kingdom on the territory of our empire, which is supported by its own rules that do not violate the treaty. The third option is that you refuse our offer, but you will have big problems if you break the peace. Also, you will not obey our rules. What do you choose?
