Chapter 55 - The Other World...


    “Sir King, of course, what I provide is made with other worldly knowledge. I travel worlds exploring the vast universes to learn what I can.” Yue said in all honesty, while trying to sound more like a scholar and not a braggart.

    “AN OTHER WORLDER?! Show me.” The king immediately stood from his throne, as other worlders were exceedingly rare. 

​​

    Hearing this, Yue started wondering. ‘Hmm, what would be best to prove my point? Oh right, I still have a motorcycle from when I was showing some of our products to king Uther. Alright, at least this way, I do not have to waste any more shop credits.’ Thus he says aloud. “Come out side with me, that I may show you, as there is not enough room in this place, lest something bad happens.” (Well there was enough room, however with how fast the bike can move, he was more worried about someone getting injured.)

    The king had his guard come to the throne room, that he may have an escort to protect him, as he still feels slightly wary of this new person who rescued his child. Yet, he decides to lead him out to the massive courtyard, and asks. “Is this enough room for your demonstration?”

    “Of course, this is definitely more than enough room. I shall now take it out, one of our creations, a motorcycle, it can run on mana, as well as various other things, depending on what you want we can customize them.” Yue said, as he began pulling it out of his inventory. Then he pats the seat behind him and asks. “Will you be joining me, or just spectating sir king? Also, worry not, you may ride once you see how it works.”

      “Alright, I will just spectate first.” This king stated as he stayed in place, wondering what this item does. ‘This contraption looks quite odd. He said ride, yet their are no wheels and at the same time it floats using magic no doubt. Hmm.’

    As if to answer the kings question, Yue started up the hover bike, and leans forward as he turns the throttle quickly. Gaining a lot of speed instantaneously, the spectators jaws all practically dropped to the floor, seeing not only his speed but even being able to fly at such speeds without spells or anything else.

    The king began pondering. ‘If we had such mounts in battle, we could dominate our enemies. These are silent, can fly, and do not have to use mana. Hmm.’

    A few moments after doing some flips and riding around, Yue came back down and parked the hover motorcycle asking. “Would you like to try it now, Sir King?”

    “No need to keep referring to me as such, just call me Mordred, or king Mordred. Either way works, after all we will be working closely soon I am sure. By the way, I am sure that you could definitely help arm and train our troops bet… ” The king stopped speaking upon feeling the whole world around him go dark, and feeling intense killing intent, or blood lust.

      King Mordred, looked around trying to find where this terrifying aura was coming from until he heard *thump, thump, thump* as though a giant was walking towards him. Hearing this he slowly turned his head and saw a terrifying sight that made his legs lose their strength and he fell to the ground. He watched as everything around him was in black and white, yet Yueliang was walking towards him with golden eyes, that looked like they were about to release heavens wrath upon him.

      Walking forward, Yue stops just in front of King Mordred and says with a voice that is as if the world is echoing his every word, adding to the terror. “I am neutral, between all the kingdoms. You may use what you buy from me as you wish, as it is no longer mine, however do not involve me in your petty squabbles. If war, so much as touches within 200 kilometers of my land, they will be wiped out immediately, then I shall come for you. Do you understand?”

      “Y-y-yes.” Mordred replies practically under his breath, but just loud enough Yueliang hears it.

      “Also, I am sure Uther will be willing to let Lancelot come and teach your men, lest he is punished.” Yue said with a smile, then continued, after releasing the killing intent. “Great, I am sure we will be wonderful friends in the future, do you not agree?”

      “O-o-off courrse” Mordred replies swiftly with a stutter as he was helped up from the ground by Yue.

      “Either way, I hope I will be seeing you at the auction house in a month. Oh, and when you finish reading the Auction list, please proceed to pass the news to the other two kingdoms. I am oh so tired from all this work.” He said the last sentence slightly jokingly, while he walks away, collecting the motorcycle into his inventory as he walks.

      [ You will be teleported back momentarily. ]

      [ 10 ]

      [ 9 ]

      [ 8 ]

      [ 7 ]

      [ .. ]

      [ Now Teleporting ]

      ‘Phew, I am back. Well, that certainly felt long. I guess I still have the war, and the cave of cultists left to complete. Hmm, I think I will get some food .. first… What is going on?’ Yue thought as he saw what appeared to be a rabbit hopping on two legs, and {Blinking (version of teleporting)} almost every time it jumped.

      “Hurry, get that rabbit.” Orslaine said, as a group of Sky Orcs were chasing it.

      ‘Do I really want to get involved in this? I still have some more quests to do.’ Yue thought as he started walking in the opposite direction.

        “Yue, Hello, you are back.” Orslaine ran up to him to say hello as she has not spoken with him in a while.

        “Yes I am, and I see you are chasing a rabbit, if that is what it is. What did it do?”

        “Ah, these rabbits, make both very good pets, especially for combat use, and make meals. By the way have you ever had bunny? It is delicious.” She said with an innocent and cute smile.

      “I cannot say that I have, however with the way you are talking about it, maybe I will try it later. By the way, do you mind coming with me to war? Sorry, just figured it will be faster this way.” Yue asked, with a kind of awkward expression. 

      “Of course, if you need our help we will surely do all we can.” Orslaine replied excited to help the one she loves.

      “Alright, well, should I catch that bunny first or no?” Yue asked.

      “Would you really?” Orslaines’ eyes sparkled. 

      “Be back in a moment.” Yue replied, activating sprint, then dash, an running at full speed. A few seconds later, he sees the bunny land, and before it can jump, he grabs it by neck gently and with his other hand quickly covers its eyes. Yueliang then runs to the pens and tosses it in with the wolves by accident, then thinks while running back. ‘I am sure it will be fine. We should be back soon anyway.’

      “That was quick. So where did you put it and where are we going?” She asks cheerfully.

      “I let it go in one of the pens, *ahem wolf pen, anyways I will teleport you once I arrive as I am not certain either.” He replies quickly.

      “The wolf pen, hmm, well I am sure all will turn out well. Ready when you are.” She said clearly knowing something he does not.

      ‘Yang, please send me to my next quest.’ Yue thought.

      “Of course, by the way, you will be teleported right in the fray, thus be careful.” Yang says slightly worriedly.

      [Teleporting Shortly]

      [ 10 ]

      [ 9 ]

      [ 8 ]

      [ 7 ]

      [ .. ]

      [ Now Teleporting ]

      Just as two swords were about to clash as these enemies fought, Yue appeared in between them. As it was too late to stop their blades, the blades shattered upon hitting Yueliangs’ head. The two people on both sides jaws dropped as they have never seen such a thing.

      ‘Fortunately I was warned by Yang, and that I have skin harder than iron from cultivating.’ Yue thought as he drew his sword and said in his mind. ‘So Yang, thank you very much for the warning, also, which side is my enemy?’ 

      “I guess that was not listed on the quest guide lines, alright, first off anyone not wearing armor is an ally. Next, anyone using magic is an enemy, as well as anyone who has a tattoo on their right cheek. Remember, the longer you take, the less benefits you get, so be swift, be strong, and most of all live well. Talk soon master.” Yang replied.

    ‘Well, this should be interesting. It seems I should start summoning the sky orcs. Hmm, about two thousand should do the trick I hope. Well, if anything it should be much faster.’ Yue thought to himself and snapped, summoning 1, 999 random ones, and then Orslaine as well. Having summoned them, he gave them orders through [mental transmission], a new ability he got from cultivating, although it took a few practice tries to learn.
