The Sended's

Chapter (-): Deal with the Devil

"Stop riddling, tell me straight the point of this conversation,"

"Core? The whole point of all this is for the damned war you're starting to end!"

I managed to provoke his emotions huh? As is well known, humans have fragile emotions

"If you want this fleet to leave here because you are afraid of being attacked by an impending battle, then you are holding the wrong people hostage

I may indeed be the admiral of this fleet, but I cannot move as I please either. You're supposed to be holding the leader of a colony deep in the East hostage,"

I might sound like I'm looking for an excuse, but that's the truth. I was given the freedom of action only when the battle took place, the rest had to follow the orders of my superiors

"Yes, that may be true, but you can contact him and make this fleet move elsewhere," he replied with his curmudgeonly knowledge

"And what's my reason for doing that? Because I'm being held hostage? Oh, it's not like they're out of people like me. The fact is if I say that, maybe the entire fleet will start shooting here and end our lives together,"

Elves are a proud race with a sense of pride that is too high, therefore they are also disciplined and willing to die rather than be stripped by the enemy. Each of the Elves realized this, therefore they would guiltlessly kill their own comrades if this fellow of theirs was caught or stripped

They thought that with that, the pride of being an Elf in their comrades would be saved, and their comrades would thank them forever in the afterlife

Sound stupid? Maybe, but I've also been educated like that since childhood

"You don't have to worry, because I've noticed it, too," huh? If you are aware, then why

"I'll give you information that could be a good reason for your superiors to move your fleet,"

"You think we elves don't know the information you're about to give, you're an inferior race?" I tried to provoke him further

"Don't know, but do you know Uranium?"

"Ura-?" What did he just say?

"So you don't know.... Uranium, though,"

I can't believe that his strategy worked

My plan was to make the Dwarves as well as the Elves use their strongest weapons and produce a huge explosion that would harm them as well, in order to do that I had to lie to the regional admiral of the Elves

The thing is, I thought I said: The Dwarves have weapons of mass destruction that can burn your colony.

So Abraham came up with a good idea, so,

"A good lie is to give them information they've never heard before, both the core of that information and the words you use,"

And according to that theory, what information is better than ancient human language?

I told Ily what Abraham told me about the nukes I asked myself about. And the answer I got was apparently very bad

A weapon that can destroy a city in a single explosion, whose impact has very long-term adverse effects. Ancient humans had these weapons of mass destruction as many as tens of thousands of units

It allows them to destroy the world if they want to.

"We've arrived,"

Until?

Whoa! Lookit....

"DCS Dabakurr, means attack in Dwarf language. This ship has become the flag of the Dwarf protection fleet in the mining center of this continent,"

The ship was indeed majestic and of similar magnitude to Ily's, as well as the Dwarf fleet that was here, they had a similar number to the Elf fleet in the East

However the designs that the Dwarves used were the best in this world, they had the most effective ships thanks to their craftsmen and technicians. Although in terms of the beauty of Elf ships far beyond them, but what does it mean when fighting is not it?

Why am I surprised? It was because I was taken flying by them, and my stomach was very uncomfortable when I was in the air. I thought that by closing my eyes, it would be at least better

Ugh, forget it, the infiltration started, as much as I could want no casualties. The death of the previous Elves was our failure in the mission, it should not be repeated again

Making our hands clean of blood is one of the points for negotiations to succeed, it will add opinion to the Dwarves, so as much as possible there should be no casualties

I was with two Machinarum, Ellie and Vici came in and immediately did a check on the layout of this ship. Well, what did that was the two of them, by connecting this ship system with themselves

I could only shut up and watch as they did that, because when we got to the fleet leader's room, it was their turn to shut up and watch.

"Hello, Mr. Ivar,"

"How can there be an intruder here?!"

Lucky for the two fleet leaders to be alone in their place, the last time Ily was too

"Calm down, sir"

"Damn it! What do you want?! Threatening me won't change anything,"

"yeah! But I don't think there's any harm in listening to you first, say it!"

Dwarves are like this. Sometimes they are open, sometimes they are stubborn. Their voices are certainly very loud

"The Elves, they will soon destroy your mining sector near our old village,"

"uh? That's not a problem, other than that sector only produces dangerous lower-grade rocks, the sector is also guarded by several ships because it is closest to the border,"

"Some ships won't be able to stop the Elf regional fleet, Mr. Ivar,"

Hearing this, he was shocked in disbelief

"Regional armada?! Why did they do that? No.... Do you not deceive us?! Hey shit! Do you realize what you've done?!"

"Whoah! Calm yourself Mr. Ivar, I can explain this further,"

"You should hope that your story makes sense, or that I'll find your bones with my bare hands,"

Dwarves besides being famous for their crafts and technology, are also famous for their strength. They are only one level below the Orc when it comes to strength, their hands are rumored to be able to bend iron though

"The "low-level but dangerous stone you mean is Uranium. Elves have an ancient book that tells about this stone and its benefits for ancient beings who lived in Kelfia before the Devils existed" I explained

"Just at the beginning of the bullshit, my chances are up, man!"

Ivar got up with a fist with him, he approached and prepared to hit me. But stopped by Ellie who took care of me if anything untoward happened, she did her job well

Ellie used the energy to create a luminous rope-like restraint that bound Ivar in place, the rope wrapped around from arm to leg making Ivar completely immobile

Well, except for that mouth....

"One more time please calm down, Mr. Ivar,"

"Machinariums.... I'm sure one of your colleagues had a major trauma after we disassembled, huh?"

The provocation? He tried the way Ily used me but he did it to Machinarum who had no feelings? Are Dwarves really intelligent beings?

"After the Hixe core unit is rebooted, the negatives such as the trauma you mean have been moved from the system unit to the central database, so to answer your question: no, no, the trauma you've been given seems futile,"

Haha....my feelings only or is Ellie experienced to make others upset? I'm sure not all Machinarum is like him

"By the way, in the book Uranium is the most important component for making nuclear reactions,"

"Huh?"

"The ancient beings in the book had very advanced technology, more advanced than any race on the face of this Kelfia, yet they could not use magic, she said, they use science or science to live the world

The nuclear reaction is one that can create energy to animate various objects in that era. They also have other sources of energy that can be harnessed but what I'm going to talk about right now is nuclear

In addition to being used as a domestic energy source, they can use this reaction as a very deadly weapon,"

I explained to him how this reaction was created, what Uranium was used for, and the effects of nuclear weapons as Abraham had told me before

And again it managed to attract the attention of Ivar until he fell silent and focused on listening to my story

"So all this time we Dwarves have failed to put a value on such an important stone? And that pointy-eared creature preceded us?!"

"Umm, that kind of thing?"

"Damn it! If I knew that stone was so important, I would build a military base there! Now untie this bond! Let me move the entire Dwarf regional fleet towards the Uranium sector,"

Hehe....

"As you wish, but it seems to be up to here my involvement,"

"No, this is enough. I don't know what your motives are but we're very helpful, I'll give you a decent present someday,"

Keke..... The gift she deserves to say, the gift I want is the explosion you're gonna make

Why am I not further suspected? It was simple, because I was just a crawler race. The reason why they did not suspect Machinarum who was with me was because there was a more important matter

There was only one more step towards my goal, but after that I also needed to prepare for the next stage, and there was little help from Machinarum.

I reached again in the cave where everything began, both this mission and the new life of man. The difference is above this cave, flying thousands of Machinarum along with a Server that is their carrier, waiting for orders from me that is only a human

There are three Administrators and all of them are here, including Alexander. The only administrator is Dido, she is like Ellie who is a machine girl, but the role of Dido is a war general

Dido usually led large groups like today, in contrast to Alexander who gave orders to small groups in their respective expeditions

"The chessboard's on set" I said

"Then let's do our first move" said Abraham
