Chương 11: Chapter 11 — Nymphomaniac
The nobles and ministers who had been brought out of despair were now looking at Konrad with newfound respect and fear. King Edmund, while relieved, couldn't help but feel a mixture of emotions, knowing that his kingdom was saved but also uncertain about the future.
[Now the Canary Kingdom will officially be annexed by the Third Reich. Any opposition?]
The nobles and ministers were silent. Who would dare oppose it now? Konrad would just make an example of them!
A transport helicopter flew above them, and a couple hundred administrating staff jumped out.
[You will co-operate with my staff. They will be taking over all operations of the Kingdom from now. You will also be helping with new technology and the source power harvesting project!]
The nobles and ministers all quickly nodded fearfully.
Konrad ordered all the people to start working and stabilising the kingdom immediately. They all left the roof, leaving Konrad there by himself, a transport helicopter, and a few bodyguards.
[I need to quickly advance this Kingdom. This will be my first step to world domination. I'm glad that I managed to keep a lot of my cards hidden in the battle, like poison gas, artillery, cluster bombs and nukes. Nobody can know that I have nuclear weapons. I can only use it in the most desperate situations]
Konrad knew that no matter his best efforts, technology leakage would happen when released technology to the Canary Kingdom. However, releasing new technology was essential to quickly grow the strength of the country. The only thing he could control was what exact technology got released. And that was how he intended to limit the enemy. He would bring them down a technological dead end.
[I have ordered my staff to only make steam-based technology. Steam engines. Steam cars. Steam trains. Even steam guns]
[I will tightly protect this technology and place large amounts of guards around it, pretending like it's a national secret. I will tell the ministers and nobles that all our weapons run on steam, and the white smoke that came out from the missiles is steam. When they inevitably leak the news, all countries will be convinced that steam power is the future, when it is only a technological dead end. Of course, I must secretly destroy anyone who tries to develop oil and gasoline technology. This world shall enter the steampunk era]
No matter how hard countries tried to advance and improve their steam technology, their performance would never be able to compare to petrol and diesel engines. And by the time they realise that they have been led down a dead-end road, it will be too late.
Standing near the ledge, Konrad looked down at the city and thought about his plans for the future.
Through experimenting with his source power, Konrad had found out that he could not create magical items with his source power. It was almost like it resisted magic.
[That doesn't mean my source soldiers can't use magical items though, they just don't have any mana or talent to use magic]
That was one of the reasons why Konrad wanted to control a country.
[I can't keep only using my source troops in wars. They are too expensive to die as cannon fodder. The natives of this world can be my cannon fodder while my source troops are my true killing force]
With his absolutely loyal source troops, Konrad was confident in controlling the native army of his Kingdom.
[I will flood the Kingdom with propaganda. I shall rally the people to fight against the Elsass Magical Empire. I will build magic schools to train talented magic users. Make the natives build magical items to enhance my source army. That mysterious voice that brought me to this world told me to continue the Third Reich, but I will live my own life. The name of my empire may be the same as in history, but I have no intention of following in their footsteps. It will take orders from me and me alone. I will build my own world]
Meanwhile, far away, deep in the capital of the Elsass Magic Empire, the Emperor of the Elsass Empire was having a headache. Two months ago, his kingdom had performed an expensive summoning ritual to summon a hero from another world. From the summoning circle walked out Daiki Kurogane, a teenager from another world country called "Japan".
Upon arrival, he had immediately heroically jumped up, waved his fist in the air, and shouted how he would wipe out the demons and save the world from the Demon King. After being informed that even though demons were infecting the world, there was no need to get rid of them since they were weakening enemy countries, he had instantly vowed to create an adventuring party to explore old ruins and "Create a harem!".
Once again, he needed to be explained that adventurers only existed in weak countries whose own army wasn't strong enough to protect their own land. The Elsass Magical Empire, one of the most powerful countries with one of the most powerful armies on the continent, had only ever hired mercenaries to do its dirty business. All ancient ruins had already been explored and cleared by the army and most wild monsters had already been effortlessly slaughtered.
A magical test was done, breaking the expensive crystal ball and showing that Daiki had an incredibly high magical talent and affinity, the highest in history. In minutes, Daiki could perform magic that would take a normal wizard weeks to learn.
The Emperor knew that trying to forcibly control someone with this much potential would just create a ticking time bomb. His talent was so high that even if the most powerful slave magic was used on him, his subconscious would actively decode and remove it!
The experienced Emperor had decades of experience and was an intelligent and cunning man, so he could instantly tell the thoughts and motives of Daiki Kurogane. To control him, the emperor gave Daiki a harem of the most beautiful and exotic slave girls. The girls would then subtly influence him to remain in the Elsass Empire and help it expand. At his own request, he was also given the title of Grand Royal Supreme Ancestral Wizard Archmage Daiki, Saviour of Humanity!
And it worked! The naïve Daiki was convinced that his purpose in this world was to make the Elsass Empire rule the world. He created the Imperial Army and enchanted countless flying ships and fortresses based on his memory, as well as create a whole new field of magic to make the army not fear death and infinitely loyal. The Emperor was delighted and praised Daiki, which only seemed to inflate his massive ego.
However, the emperor was now having a headache. The problem was simply that Daiki was not spending any time on his magic anymore! Daiki's talent was so great that it was likely he could even become a god if he spent a few decades training hard in isolation. How many great and powerful legends in history have spent thousands of years sweating blood, training every day, only to fail at the last step? How many determined people have been cut off from reaching their dreams, wasting hundreds of years after their talent ran out? How many old monsters had exhausted all their options, trying to increase their talent? And Daiki could reach it in a few decades!
Even after telling Daiki this, he just waved it off. He said training magic was hard and boring! His lifespan increased the more powerful he got, so he could just train for half an hour a day and still reach the peak with no problems. Instead, he would much rather spend time with his harem.
After all, he claimed, he had already made a few peerless spells that would save his life or the Empire in an emergency. Now, the only spells he was using were stamina spells, illusion magic and tentacle magic to make his time with his harem more "Exciting". He then proceeded to demand more exotic slaves.
However, with the intelligence of how much time Daiki was spending with his harem and the sounds coming out of his mansion, the emperor was doubtful that Daiki was even spending 5 minutes a day training. The emperor knew that outside pressure was the only thing that could prompt Daiki to train harder, but the Elsass Kingdom was already one of the most powerful Empires, and the Emperor wasn't going to risk the life of his Kingdom just for this nymphomaniac.
