Nanomachine Emperor

government ordinance.

One of the missing ‘Seven Wonders’.

Records of ancient humans living with spirits are frequently found, but no one has discovered spirits yet.

Of course, there were reports, and it wasn’t that there weren’t people who had summoned spirits.

But it was all lies and fraud.

We didn’t know why the spirits that coexisted with humans suddenly disappeared, or even where they went.

Until I found the proper ‘spirit language’.

“I can’t believe it. This is the first time I have seen a spirit word engraved so clearly.”

A spacious space prepared by pushing the library of the palace.

Inside, Edith trembled as she saw the ‘spirit word’ engraved on my right arm.

It was the moment when the desire to explore settled in his cold-hearted eyes.

“Can you see what it says?”

“’… I am the one who penetrates the light and dyes the darkness.’ This is the sentence engraved on the very first line. There are also difficult characters mixed in, so it will take some time to interpret, but…”

The one who pierces the light and dyes the darkness.

It was grandiose, but it was a proper spirit introduction.

At the same time, it was part of the start language.

A secret that I learned only after destroying all the treasures in the royal palace in the past.

‘A spirit is not like a creature with a will.’

Humans viewed spirits as an organic entity.

The substance was left in the original world and viewed as an intelligent body that moves according to summons or commands.

But that too was nothing more than human prejudice.

A crude idea with only a human point of view.

It’s the same as thinking about dogs and cats by substituting human emotions.

‘The spirit is a weapon.’

Spirit is not like that.

Spirits were only one type of weapon created by humans in ancient times.

It’s just that it’s so old that it can’t do its job.

It was only that it was broken, the start word was erased, or even if the start word was intact, it lost its power and could not be activated.

It was only after destroying all the treasures of the imperial palace that ancient weapons were found with the words of starter written on them.

Of course, nothing worked, but countless scholars and wizards studied it and were eventually able to figure it out.

The spirit did not disappear somewhere.

Even with the spirit next to us, we did not recognize that it was a spirit.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen a phenomenon where spirit words are written like parasites on a human body. Could you please tell me what happened?”

“Do you know the wand called the Seeker of Light?”

“Isn’t it a treasure that a wizard cannot know about? It is a staff that appears in ‘The 100 Greatest Heritages of Humanity’. It is also something that His Majesty the Emperor bestowed upon the Third Prince.”

The emperor said that the effort was imaginary and threw it away as if it was no big deal, but from the wizards’ point of view, it was a treasure among treasures.

It is said that if you hold the Seeker of Light, your mana control ability will increase by about 0.5 circles.

If Edith grabbed it right away, the two magicians of the East Circle would be able to deal with it for a long time.

The cultural value is simply enormous, but the efficacy is even more tremendous was the light seeker.

A treasure among such treasures.

“It was broken.”

“··· Yes?”

“They said it was broken.”

“The Seeker of Light, you mean?”

“Ahh. I grabbed both ends of the cane and broke it with my knee. The material was weaker than I thought.”

The muscles in Edith’s face began to twitch.

A face full of bewilderment.

It would be questionable how I got what originally belonged to the 3rd prince, but breaking it would be even more incomprehensible.

Of course there was an intention.

The intention was to interpret the spirit word engraved on the light seeker more quickly.

Even in the past, the spirit word engraved on the seeker of light could not be interpreted.

This is because it was burned and lost during the purge process before interpretation.

The wizards must have gathered at the same time, and they were trying to solidify their position by solving one of the ‘Seven Wonders’.

‘I didn’t know that it would live on my arm.’

It was like a tattoo.

A nanomachine that emits a slight glow and emits a sense of presence.

[Unable to analyze ‘Unauthorized Nanomachines’. It has a high security level lock. To analyze this, a higher level of ‘administrator privilege’ is required.]

[Currently, ‘Nano Machine Zero”s administrator authority is level 9. In order to analyze the applicable ‘unauthorized nanomachine’, at least ‘Level 6’ administrator rights are required.]

[In order to raise the level of ‘administrator authority’, it is necessary to control a larger amount of nanomachines.]

[More features will be unlocked as the rank goes up.]

An increase in rank increases the function of Nano Machine Zero.

Even now, it was zero to show ridiculous performance.

In just a few days, it normalized the body that no one had been able to fix.

I was also curious.

What would happen if I raised the level of authority and unlocked this nanomachine engraved on my right arm.

However, collecting ‘nanomachines’ in the usual way takes years.

There is only one exception, and that is to rule over ‘runaway’ nanomachines.

Coincidentally, Edith was the first to contact her.

Interpretation of spirit words?

Of course it’s important, but the real intention was different.

“That treasure… heh heh.”

I said to Edith, who was still unconscious.

“The spirit word engraved on the seeker of light suddenly stuck to my arm. Isn’t this what you call ‘destiny’?”

“Your Highness, there is no destiny created by destroying treasure.”

“That’s what it says. That’s why.”

Finally, the main point.

I had to be careful in this part.

to alleviate the congestion.

However, the flip side of it is that it eventually robs mana.

If you didn’t care, you could be cornered by saying that it’s a witch and a priest.

It is possible that an unfortunate incident of being imprisoned in a high-class convict ward for tampering with taboo black magic could occur.

‘If someone makes this public, it’s very good for a witch hunt.’

The mad prince dabbled in black magic!

It’s not about preventing runaways, it’s about taking away mana!

This is why no one can cure runaway.

There was no answer when people rushed to treat runaways at random.

So I gave my best effort and ‘acted’.

“It is said that when coincidences overlap, it is fate. And seeing you, I kept thinking that it was ‘destiny’.”

“Fate?”

“This power acquired by chance was confirmed by what came by chance. If it wasn’t for you, I would have been accused of being a liar.”

“It is not so, Your Highness. Isn’t that entirely Your Highness’ ability? People must have recognized it.”

Ordinary people would, but this was the imperial palace.

If he hadn’t shown up and reassured her of her abilities, it could have been a little more complicated.

ruler. This is the start.

“That’s not all. Your circumstances and mine matched exquisitely. I need you, just like you need me.”

“Is there a reason you need me?”

“Wouldn’t it be the same if you just looked at the interpretation of the elemental word right now?”

“That’s… something other Mage Tower owners can do too.”

I shook my head.

“They won’t come out on their own like you. He’s only concerned about his relationship with the imperial family and the physical appearance that the owner of the tower should show.”

“…”

“What I need is someone with firm convictions of their own, who doesn’t care about relationships like that.”

“I was just in need of urgent treatment for my granddaughter, Your Highness.”

Yes.

However, there are many more who do not.

A man who throws everything for his granddaughter is something out of a fairy tale.

A person who is actually in that position and throws everything away and only works for his granddaughter?

how many will it be

After the death of his granddaughter, he even gave up his position as the owner of the tower.

I heard that he died lonely in the place where he buried his granddaughter in the early night.

Interest is a person with conviction.

He was a man who walked his own path.

I smiled.

“So, didn’t you say it was fate? Fate, your earnestness, is what brought you here.”

Edith’s eyes flickered for a moment.

I did not choose the means and methods, but I could not find a solution.

encountered it here. like fate.

You probably didn’t think of it as fate until now, but after hearing my words, you probably started to consider it as ‘destiny’.

“What do you want, Your Highness?”

Edith asked, trying to figure out her intentions.

What do you want?

“There is only one thing I want.”

Edith tried to calm herself down and looked at me.

It was strange that the prince didn’t want anything.

Perhaps, you may be asking for something outrageous…

I would think so.

“It is your cure.”

complete cure.

Eliminate the side effects of runaway.

It is a number to give confidence in the ability, and also to bring the runaway nanomachines without a doubt.

Edith’s eyes, which had been calculating, began to shake even more.

“I think I was thinking about it wrong.”

Edith got up from her seat.

And slowly, he lowered his head.

“I’m sorry, Your Highness. Forgive me for being selfish because I didn’t know Your Highness’ pure good intentions.”

pure goodwill?

A passing dog would laugh at it, but Edith had no choice but to do so.

I’ll be like a rope that came down from the sky.

“I have nothing to do but forgive. So raise your head.”

“no. It is because I cannot forgive myself.”

The wizard seems calculating and cold-hearted, but on the contrary, he has a naive side.

‘When faith is shaken, they show greater faith.’

When common sense about faith is broken, ordinary people cannot accept it.

However, high-circle magicians tend to trust such ‘beyond common sense’ more.

It is because you have to accept it to break the wall and climb to a higher place.

Edith was the same.

Prejudice and common sense about my gossip.

It must have collapsed all at once and I saw myself anew.

If I can manage this well, I might be able to make Edith completely ‘on my side’.

“If that’s the case, it’s difficult to treat. sit down.”

“…”

I’m going to cry

***

The rampage of the 8th circle mage.

The amount of nanomachines was beyond imagination.

The amount of adsorbed nanomachines exceeded the limit every day.

Thanks to that, I was able to reach my goal quickly.

Around the time when all the runaway nanomachines were sucked in.

[Level 6 administrator privileges have been released.]

Zero’s voice said that the level 6 administrator’s privileges had been lifted.

Numerous ‘abilities’ of Zero that were canceled at the same time.

In addition, I nodded my head when I heard that the analysis of the elemental word parasitized on the arm would begin.

The preparations to overturn the imperial palace were over.
