The Sended's
Chapter 93: A Breakthrough Maybe



.


Hohenzollern once again fell into disarray, Frederick II's strong desire making him fail to hear the wishes and expectations of his people. Therefore, one noble who began to rebel was now supported by many parties


They fall into a civil war that takes its toll from their own side, Hohenzollern kills Hohenzollern.


But in this time of turmoil, Franca seems to have no interest in interfering, rather their uninterested King. He was a man who loved art rather than politics and the military, a trait he brought to his policy that resulted in neutrality for the country.


Although he brought peace, but this too good an opportunity he threw away left many of Franca's nobles upset by his obsession, they assumed that his love of art made him blind


It may be true, but it does not change the fact that Franca had a period of peace that made them more prosperous


.


"Miss, what were you talking about with my grandfather last night?" Ask Li


Last night when I came back from the library, Li was already asleep in his own bed, his sister was sleeping with him, so I couldn't tell him anything


"It's about Ruby's arrival, yeah... Sooner or later Qing will fall into our hands, I'm sure you already know that too right?"


"Yes... But what does this have to do with my grandfather?"


"He asked for mercy for the Xia family, for the forest down there and the mountains. Though well we will not do anything to the entire Qing territory." I replied.


"W-Well, if I'm in his position, I'm worried too..."


"Dam! Ruby has something called the rules of war, it is like not being able to kill, mutilate, torture prisoners, and also not being able to deny, deny, and denounce a written agreement. We are an honorable nation!"


"Yes-yes... By the way you've been chatting with dad? He is the one who managed to increase the effect of the pill where it is, I guess you should ask him,"


"Your father, where is he now?"


"Oh! Have you woken up my cute sister? Hehe! Let's play again!" he continued playing with his sister


Huh.... It's only natural that he's back after a while, but he's the one who brought me here! He should be a guide or something, right?


"Hehe! Uh! Dad's usually in the East end of the room, he's researching there,"


"All right, I'll go straight there,"


"Eh? You don't want to have breakfast Miss Ryuu?"


Right too


.


The first Hohenzollern king, Frederick I, nicknamed Friedrich der Grosse, raised the honor of his throne by winning the war against the invasion of Franca in the previous generation. Now after the failure of the invasion of the island of Ruby, Frederick II faced the rebellion of the Southern nobility


In the end he managed to finish off the rebel forces and put the nobles to death, then he replaced their place with loyal people, who were loyal, but even so the honor of the Hohenzollern throne was never as good as it was before.


.


Phew... Her fondness... Rice porridge is suitable for breakfast


Now let me see, where Li's father worked researching... He said his dad's room is on the East end so... Uh! That's her! The easternmost room


W-Woah why does it seem gloomy?


Knock the door three times


"Come in, it's unlocked," said Li's father from the inside


I opened the door slowly and saw the pile after pile of books that were piled up without tidying up, even the door could not open completely because behind it was another pile


"Excuse me" I said


"Ah Miss Ryuu? I heard from your father you were interested in which pill," I could hear his voice but where was he?


There was only one candle to light up one room, no windows and vents but the air was well-circulated. Where is that guy anyway?!


"I'm here, miss," woah! He emerged from behind the pile of books


"I'm sorry to bother Mr. Xia,"


"Please call me Hu, there are many Xia in this residence right? Haha." he said.


"Eh uh... Have a seat, would you like some tea?" continue haggling


"There's no need, Mr. Hu, I just want to learn a little about which pills you're developing,"


He returned to his place behind the high pile of books on the side of the room


"Of course, please wait a minute, I'll take one of the pills that work" he said


"Effervesce? Does that mean that something isn't?" Much


"Surely, miss, and the effect was terrible, too,"


"What-like?" Ask me again


"Well... Maybe you better not know, miss,"


You see, if it's that terrible thing I've come across a lot, for example... What do you think of the battlefield I left behind me?


The scenery of the post-battle field was the worst, as if looking at one of the places from hell


It was only a week until all the bodies and equipment of the soldiers were cleared from the land, about the stinging smell of blood to make the rain work


Oops! I got carried away


"This is a potent one, please try,"


Again it looks like a lump of clay... Like Li's before


Hoo? It was like waking up, where I seemed to increase after getting enough sleep. Rising is also not a joke, it can fill almost half of my mana capacity which is quite large


"Successful huh?" Said he


"How do you know?" Much


"That's.you give off an invisible blue aura, I can see it with my eyes somehow,"


Is magic unique? That's a special talent...


But this is too good, it would be a waste to give this pill to an ordinary magician


Not that anything will happen, excess where it does not cause bad for people who experience it, unlike running out of mana. There was only mana that exceeded that capacity would overflow out from the body like sweat but in the form of an invisible aura like Hu said


"I will give you the recipe, but please find a professional guest, miss, otherwise it will be a danger" he said


"Is there no pill weaker than this?"


"Some, but I thought you wanted the best?" answer Hu


"If the material is easier to find let alone breed then better,"


He thought for a moment and went back behind the books


Only now did I begin to look around the room carefully, although most were just piles of books but this room was also decorated with antiquities and ancient paintings


Although everything is almost invisible... The light here is so dim...


"It's a pill I made with imported ingredients from the coast, so I think Ruby can get it easily" he said after picking up another lump of soil


"Oh! Thank you Mr. Hu,"


"No problem, I also want this science to be developed widely,"


Alright, with this my purpose here will be finished! But there's no way I just left right away, right...?


.


Therefore I want to walk for a while and come back tomorrow, after all dear if it has arrived in heaven and not a walk right?


I've thought about it a few times, but how good it is for those who die and go to heaven... If I die there is even reincarnated again... But maybe I would think the same if I switched places with them anyway


The demise of the God seemed to be unconcerned with his own creation, especially when I was not even his creation....


Huh....


"Oh! Miss Ryuu!"


"Eh? Ah, you're Li's cousin, right?"


"Right, my name is Yan, greetings Miss Ryuu,"


Her... Her clothes did not reflect that of a writer nor a researcher, it was the clothes of a martial artist


"I heard you are a General, can you teach me about martial arts Miss?"


How could he associate generals and martial arts...? Maybe in this day and age...


"All I know is how to strategize... But it's true that I know some way to fight,"


"ah! Do you mind if I ask for sparing?"


"Eh? In here?" much


"Of course not Miss, please follow me,"


He took me to a higher place... Through the path and hundreds of stairs to get to its place on a steep hill near the Xia residence


Here it was flat and unlike the grassless field, there was also a large tree on the edge that I thought would be cool if I lay nearby... But my purpose was brought here to fight huh...?


Cousin Li, Yan, He looks like Li is always excited, just for another reason


"Didn't the lady carry a gun?" ask him


"No,"


"Then let me lend you one, what weapon did you use?"


"I prefer the sword, to guard myself when the battle goes on" I replied


That's right, especially medium-sized swords, usually used for self-defense. The main weapon is mostly a spear, must not seem cool but its effectiveness is very deadly


But some swords can also be the main weapon, for example the greatsword used by Percival and knights in general, then No-Dachi katana, both are large swords used as the main weapon


How to use it is not as easy as a spear, it takes practice up to a lifetime to be able to become a master of the swords.


And I think there are many such masters on this continent, those who study martial arts instead of war must be able to reach that level.


He gave me a sword that was neatly arranged on the edge of this open field, somehow it could be so... But I don't think there's a burrow here. I mean yeah... How did they get to a place this high?


"Are you also a sword user, Yan?"


"Eh? Not really, I don't like being glued to one particular weapon, so sorry I brought three Miss..."


Oho! Although it looks excessive, but it can be an advantage


With three weapons then there will be three times the type of attack he can do. Swords, spears, and daggers huh? I look forward to how he uses those three


"Are you ready, miss?"


"I'm always ready,"
