Chapter 178 - Preparation for War (2)



Chapter 178
Preparation for War (2)

When Redin arrived in the territory of the Oberg Empire, he saw tall buildings.

Fast-rising constructions.

The buildings being constructed with the help of mages would be used as barracks for the future strike force.

As Redin continue along the road, he reaches the former location of the Oberg Empire’s Castle.

A place where he had fought a bloody battle with Rodwell.

The castle that had been reduced to ruins had been restored to its original state. Among the people working diligently in front of it, Redin saw a familiar face.

Marek Casino.

Marek was originally one of the Darkness Seven, but he remained by Redin’s side when he saved his daughter from being corrupted.

Next to him stood Sophia, who was making potions.

“I wonder if we could build a potion manufacturing plant in the basement of this castle and mass produce them?”

“I’ve set aside a room for potion research, so just tell me what you need. We’ll get it and fill it up.”

“As always, thank you.”

Their eyes locked, and there was an odd atmosphere between them. Maybe it was because they had been together for so long, but they seemed to be in great chemistry.

“Ahem.”

Coughing lightly to announce his arrival, Marek Casino raised his hand, mouth curved into a wide grin.

“You’re here?”

“How have you been?”

“Good.”

Beside him, Sophia bowed slightly.

“It’s been a long time.”

“The potion you made has saved my life several times, thank you.”

“I wouldn’t have been able to make them without your support, Redin, so I’m even more grateful to you for allowing my late husband’s work to continue.”

“How is the potion research going?”

“Well, I’m working on more than just healing potions, I’m also working on potions that maximize one’s abilities, and when the Holy Empire joins us, I’ll be researching potions that harness divine power.”

Potions that utilize Divine Power.

Although he doesn’t know how it will be implemented.

It would be a great help in the war against the Demon God Church. Divine power would be a great help in the war against them.

“I’ll stay with Ellie, you guys can finish talking, and I’ll prepare something to eat.”

After Sophia disappeared off to one side, Redin entered the castle with Marek Casino.

“This castle has been arranged with a lot of conveniences for members of the Coalition, divided into six sections to be exact, one for each kingdom.”

“When will it be completely built?”

“You can move in right now, but it will take another week or so to be completely finished.”

“Each kingdom will soon load materials and bring them here. If we utilize their help in the construction, it should be possible within a week.”

“They’re already here?”

“Some of the advance contingent have already arrived, and then additional personnel will come gradually.”

A meeting of the six kingdoms.

There, he was told that the agenda for the strike force was quickly passed.

Each kingdom decided to send their best prospects and have skilled experts accompany them to mentor them.

In the Kingdom of Adrian, the Sword Maiden.

In the Resha Kingdom, the Lord of the Red Tower.

From the Kingdom of Carvin, the mercenary king’s right-hand man.

Swordsmanship, Magic, and Improvisation.

By quickly mastering all of these, they plan to rapidly enhance their combat skills using the Cerberus training from Burning Hell.”

“But is there any point in doing this? If the Demon Church suddenly shows up tomorrow.”

“That won’t happen.”

From the memories of the apostles that he had collected so far.

Even though their plan was faster than the flow he knew, it wasn’t going to be a short-term thing.

The Demon People Project.

And the Demon Gate.

In the game, it was supposed to take them five years.

“At a minimum of one year, perhaps two at most.”

Enough time to prepare for the Demon Church.

“Even so, it’s not as long as I thought.”

“We have to prepare hard.”

They weren’t just going to bring in the most promising talent from each Kingdom.

After the Burning Hell update.

With the continent falling into the hands of the Demon Church, there were certain individuals who would become active.

Starting with the heroes, then the hidden masters.

He plan to bring them all into the strike force to enhance its effectiveness.

“What happened to the people I told you about?”

“The ones you said I must find? We’re in the process of rounding them up.”

“How many have you found?”

“Two people. I still haven’t found the one you said I should find first.”

“Can you please start with that person?”

“I’ll do my best.”

Redin nodded and made his way to the balcony of the castle. From his vantage point, he could gaze down at the entire encampment.

Multiple training areas and quarters.

From the mess hall down to the blacksmith workshop.

And a host of other amenities.

“What are you going to name this place?”

He shrug at Marek’s question.

He hadn’t thought about those things.

“Bern, the Free City.”

“Bern, the heart of the continent. This place is still new, but it’s not half bad.”

He spent a few days in a separate accommodation, and he met up with those who had arrived from the six kingdoms.

“Long time no see.”

“Long time indeed, Your Grace.”

The sword maiden looked him up and down and gave him a quizzical look.

“You’ve grown so much from when I saw you in the Holy Empire, haven’t you?”

“I’ve acquired some insight.”

“That’s also a skill to digest it well. It’s a pity. I was thinking of taking you as my disciple and molding you diligently…”

“Thanks to the enlightenment you gave me when we first met, I am able to be here. I won’t forget this debt of gratitude.”

“Okay.”

Redin walked with Jin Sowol as he showed her the different areas of the castle that the Adrian Kingdom could use.

They also talked about the designs he was working on.

“You’ll be busy from now on.”

“I can’t help it.”

“Anyway, I can’t take everyone with me. If there are those who are able to keep up with me, I’ll have to build around them.”

Some of the people Marek would bring with him were talented with the sword.

If they were taught by the sword maiden.

They would be able to handle the demons in a much stronger state.

“If you need anything, please don’t hesitate to ask. If you speak to Marek, the administrator here, he’ll take care of everything.”

“What will you be doing?”

“I’m planning to travel the continent, looking for as many traces of the Demon Church as I can find.”

As Redin parted ways with the Sword Maiden and walked outside, he saw Cerberus’s leader, Daylon, and Riena, who had been his assistant leader during his time with the task force.

“Leader. Deputy.”

“Redin.”

He shook their hands lightly.

“How are you?”

“Good.”

They walked around the castle together, catching up on everything that had happened.

Then he separated from them and greeted Isabelle, whom he had met in the Kingdom of Resha, and Manuel, a paladin from the Holy Empire.

The last person he met was Fabian.

Second Prince of the Ravino Kingdom.

A prince with the powers of a true vampire.

The two of them joined forces to defeat Rodwell and he parted ways with Fabian in the Oberg Empire. It has been a while since he has seen them.

“It’s been a long time.”

“Thanks to you, I was able to avenge my father.” Fabian said to Redin while smiling.

“I’m glad.”, Redin replied.

“I’m also going to use my ability to travel the continent, searching for any traces of the Demon Church.”

The ability to create ultrasonic maps using blood bats.

But it’s unlikely Fabian will be able to find the Demon Church’s headquarters.

In the first place, the main temple of the Demon Church is inaccessible unless they open it from the inside.

“Find me a bunch of people other than the Demon Church.”

“Like?”

“Dwarves who live somewhere under the ground.”

“Are the dwarves still alive?”

“They’re probably settled near the Red Dragon’s Lair. Search there and try to make contact with the dwarves.”

“Is this about making gear?”

“Yep.”

Special equipment made by the dwarves.

It will be of great help in the war against the Demon Church.

“I understand.”

“How far are you able to harness your vampire powers now?”

“I can only handle about half of it. I came here to train and master the other half.”

A gathering of the powerful.

It will definitely be a major help.

“Great.”

After parting ways with Fabian, Redin returned to his quarters and packed up his supplies.

With the members of the Coalition slowly gathering, the place seems to be running well. It’s time to start looking for Hidden Pieces in earnest.

The hidden pieces that he’d cataloged over the past few days while resting.

“The first place I need to visit is…….”

Temple of Paraike.

A place where the spirits of his parents told him to visit when he was exposed to strong divine energy.

Redin decided it was best to go now while there was still plenty of time.

Because they said there was a god’s representative there.

He might be able to get some advice on how to deal with the Demon Church.

“Let’s go.”

The Temple of Paraike.

It was marked on the map, but it was an area not revealed in the game. A place no one had ever been to.

He was the same as well.

Although he got hints about the Paraike Temple from various NPCs, he had never entered it because the map wasn’t unlocked.

The location of the temple is the Ruined Sky Island.

It was above the sky, instead of on the ground.

It wasn’t as simple as just flying up into the sky to find it, but rather one could only get there by using paths built in specific places.

– Underneath the tallest mountain.

– Between two carvings that praised God.

-Through the path that leads to God.

The highest mountain on the Bern Continent was the Pierce Mountain in the north of the country.

A mountain whose peak is concealed by clouds.

Using the shadow dragon, Redin traveled to the highest peak in the Pierce Mountains.

He tried to soar above the clouds just to see if he could, but was stopped by a mysterious force, requiring him to reverse summon the shadow dragon.

*Swooosh!*

While he plummeted toward the ground, he took in his immediate surroundings.

“Two sculptures praising the gods,” he said.

Using the [Fairy Wings] to hover in midair, Redin surveyed the ground below, looking for anything that could be considered as sculptures.

Wondering if it might be terrain.

He swiveled his body around to take in the entire landscape, but couldn’t find anything that could be deemed a sculpture.

Summoning his shadow alter egos, he scattered them everywhere.

After instructing them to search for anything resembling pieces, Redin descended to the location of the highest peak.

He couldn’t set foot on the ground.

Blocked by something like a transparent barrier, his body glided down to the base of the peak.

As he glided down like that.

He landed at the foot of the mountain.

“There should be a path around here…….”

Even after checking the findings of the shadow clones one by one, he couldn’t find anything that could be classified as a sculpture.

How?

How could he find it?

“…Divine power?”

When meeting his parents, he needed a strong holy power, and the Paraike Temple was where the representative of the god resided.

Redin checked the number of holy water he carried in his subspace pouch.

There were only five holy waters left.

Taking them all out, he threw them to the ground.

Utilizing the Divine Power in the holy water, Redin wields the Sword of Judgment. A white sword made of divine power appeared in his hand.

With that, the surroundings immediately shook.

*Rumbles!* *Rumbles!*

*Fwoooosh!!*

The ground began to tremble, and white light shined everywhere.

He rose into the sky, using his fairy wings once again.

Then he began to glimpse something he hadn’t seen before.

Two statues on the mountain peak.

Between them was a door.

“Found it.”
