Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 407
#407. That’s right.
* * *
Clap Clap Clap.
A moving container belt with mechanical sounds.
The various mechanical parts coming out of the belt are assembled by the workers with familiar hands.
Finished industrial products go to the loading warehouse along the belt again, and warehouse managers organize them and put them in boxes of a certain standard.
So, one after another, trucks that look the same start loading them.
The sight itself is truly neat.
It looked like the most ideal factory.
…if it weren’t for the sight that was unfolding the same way in thousands and tens of thousands of factories.
[Ahhh…]
That was it.
Yuna-kyung was fed up.
For a while to wrap your forehead with wings on top of the radio tower.
Barely coming to her senses, she shook her head and murmured.
[What kind of cities are there?]
Moscow.
The capital of Russia boasting a population of tens of millions.
At the same time, more than 50% of its population is a factory worker or has a job related to it, the world’s largest industrial city.
I knew its reputation from a long time ago, but the scenery of Moscow seen from the sky was beyond my imagination.
From weapons to home appliances to clothes and toys.
The sight of all sorts of industrial products pouring out without a break was dizzying.
However, what made Yuna-kyung dizzy was the sense of déjà vu in the process of producing and transporting the industrial product.
Employees wearing the same clothes.
products made with the same procedure.
Vehicles that look the same.
There are only slight differences between products or factories.
Buildings and facilities, as well as people, were copied with Ctrl + C and pasted to the entire city.
In particular, the feeling of repeating the same image everywhere you look made your eyes dizzy the more you looked.
[Cough, it’s hard to breathe.]
Plus, the sky is covered with smoke from countless chimneys.
This is the only thing that has been purified with the power of the spirit.
I was dizzy just imagining how turbid the air would have been originally.
[Anyway, the team leader said how can I find a white sister by myself?]
Yuna-kyung grumbled.
It was too daunting to find just one person in this chaotic metropolis.
Especially in that I almost became a beehive when I tried to stealthily approach the most suspicious Kremlin Palace, but got caught in the automatic interception system.
Should I go to the Kremlin again?
Or should I look around Moscow like this?
It was while Yuna-kyung was struggling with a problem that had no answer.
Sigh.
[Huh?]
Knock knock.
[…what is it?]
The running car slows down.
The noisy factory becomes quiet.
When Yuna-kyung blinks at the sight of the city, which had been moving non-stop, suddenly stopped as if the power was turned off.
Employees rushed out of the factory.
[What is this? It wouldn’t have been a sudden war…]
From laborers to workers, technicians, researchers, factory managers, and supervisors.
It was a moment of bewilderment to see millions of people moving somewhere in perfect order.
Yuna-kyung first followed the flow of the crowd.
It was because I felt something unusual as it was the first time I had seen it even though I had been living in Moscow for several days already.
So after a while.
where they arrived.
No, to be precise, Yuna-kyung, who saw what had happened there, opened her eyes wide.
[…what really happened?]
Thousands of cinemas created by installing hologram projectors in the plaza.
A stadium where all kinds of games such as baseball and soccer are held.
The Colosseum where the player comes out.
A racetrack that occupies the entire park.
A truck that sells sweets, etc.
Various temporary facilities built in various places in Moscow.
And seeing the crowd desperately wandering between them, Yuna-kyung couldn’t help but put on a bewildered expression.

“The movie to go into Area 113 is [Lovers in a Neighboring Country]. [Fall of a Star] is so underreacted.”
“Both the new version and the old version will be well received, but which one should I use?”
“I do it with the old board. Better do the remake next week.”
“And you said to dismantle the old factory in District 7 to expand the racecourse, but it seems that the factory next to it will be destroyed by mistake tomorrow.”
“it’s okay. You can make a performance hall there.”
“Then, I will instruct you to make mistakes without worry.”
It was a truly bizarre sight.
Check the box office performance of movies that have not been screened in advance and choose better results.
Prepare countermeasures in advance for an accident that will happen tomorrow.
Have a responder dispatched to the location where there may be an injury.
A prize is set for the winner of a game that hasn’t even started.
Checking out where the problem might be, etc.
The mix of reports from the past, instructions from the present, and information from the future is truly a crucible of confusion.
It seemed that even the most proficient would stumble, not understanding the jumbled information, let alone follow.
But at this very moment.
It wasn’t just the frantic conversation that Kana felt strange.
The throne where the silver-haired girl always lay or roll.
It was because of the sense of incongruity of a white-haired girl who looked just like her sitting in a straight posture with a mini desk.
“I want to know if the preparations for the event are going well.”
“The books and artwork are expected to arrive by tomorrow. It’s just that the singers and the idol orchestra don’t have schedules, so it will take a while.”
“If it doesn’t fit, adjust it. We also invite additional outside personnel.”
“How much is enough?”
“Whether it’s a thousand or ten thousand, I invite everyone.”
“Then the cost increases exponentially.”
“it’s okay. Russia has a lot of money. Bahamut also spends a lot of money. Then the problem is solved.”
“It is indeed a good idea.”
It was a while to admire Ainsha’s clever instructions.
Tata soon narrowed his brows.
“…If you just do that, the work will be pushed back to the head office. I think there will be a problem within a month at the latest.”
“it’s okay. That much can be left to Li Qingyuen.”
“Is that okay?”
“of course. I saw the future in which Li Qingyu persevered through his duties despite collapsing from exhaustion. So please rest assured.”
“All right. Then I will remove the manpower from that side and return it this way.”
Li Qingyu, who was already overworked by taking on the duties of the two clans, would have let out a sigh if he had heard of it.
However, Tata answered confidently.
And immediately saw Kana.
“We need funding from the national budget and Bahamut. Please prepare to execute immediately.”
“…”
Kana remained silent.
It seems that there is no reason for him to comply with such a request.
However, after hearing Ainsha’s blunt voice, she had no choice but to open her mouth.
“I do as Kanatata says.”
“Princess White Dragon, do you know what you are doing right now?”
“I know.”
They know what they are doing as well as the future they can see clearly.
Ainsha answered in a blunt voice.
“I am ruling this country.”
“Do you think that would be possible by simply showing movies, selling comic books, and forcing cultural life for a certain amount of time?”
“of course.”
Despite Kana’s objection, Ainsha did not raise an eyebrow and said with an expressionless face.
“Russian Khanate is strong. It is difficult to rule with the power of our clan. So I give you 3S.”
“…Did you say 3S?”
“That’s right. Sports Screen Sweets. It enriches the human heart. Once you become addicted, you cannot quit.” As the owner of Tiamat, which dominates
the Seven Dragon Group
, especially the cultural industry, Ainsha asserted.
Culture is worse than the green dragon clan’s drugs.
Even if you have not encountered it at all, once you have fallen in love with the culture, you will continue to crave it, just as a traveler in the desert longs for an oasis.
So, if the cultural industry continues to spread like this, Russia will become subordinate to Tiamat.
Take a moment to stare at Ainsha, who speaks with an expressionless face.
Kana suddenly asked.
“Why is the third of 3S sweets?”
“…?”
“…?”
“…just pretend you didn’t hear.”
It seems that there is something the people want other than sweets.
Ainsha tilted her head.
After all, Tata blinks.
Seeing the two white dragon clans revealing their true intentions, Kana, feeling futile for asking a serious question for no reason, lowered her head with a sigh.
“Anyway, if it’s the White Dragon Princess’s order, I’ll follow it.”
Anyway, she had no choice.
Ekatriche’s order was to treat Ainsha like herself and do whatever she tells her to do.
To refuse Ainsha’s order would be to go against Yekathrice’s will, unless Yekathrice returned immediately and reaped the order.
“Then let’s do something. I am busy.”
“yes.”
“Tata, I’ll leave the rest to you.”
“Only trust this Tata!”
Of course he seemed to know that.
After bowing politely to Ainsha, who nodded and began to rummage through the documents.
Tata, who left the hall with Kana, moved briskly.
In order to carry out Ainsha’s instructions, it was not enough even if I saved every minute and every second from now on.
But after a while.
Tata stopped walking.
He tilted his head as he saw Kana staring at him.
“Do you have something to say?”
“No, I’m just curious.”
“What do you mean?”
“I’m talking about the reason why the aide who should stop Princess White Dragon is neglecting this runaway.”
The princess of the Seven Dragons is a dragon descendant.
That’s why they are obsessed with their respective fields.
Even in the age of heroes, the Seven Dragons did not unite and acted separately on each continent.
But to think that this kind of thing is being done in Russia, which is ruled by another princess, and even Yekathrice.
It was only natural to stop him as an aide who could incur Yekathrice’s wrath.
Nevertheless, rather than stopping Ainsha, what is the reason for actively helping her?
To Kana who asked with a cold face.
Tata answered confidently.
“Because I believe the princess is right.”
“Are you serious?”
“Of course.”
“As an aide, this is too irresponsible.”
“At least Karolina-sama would have sympathized with me.”
“…do you know your grandmother?”
“Yes, I met her when she served the previous princess.”
“….”
“He was a good enough person to set an example as an aide. It’s just regretful that he passed away at the hands of the previous Princess Silver Dragon.”
dreaming
Kana raised her eyebrows.
And he looked at Tata with a cold face.
“It’s 100% better than an aide who survived the death of the princess he served.”
From voice to content.
cold words.
However, Tata calmly nodded.
“You are right.”
“…”
Hearing that calm reply, let him be silent for a while.
In the end, Tata smiled quietly as Kana walked ahead as if she didn’t want to talk anymore.
It’s a shame that his aides can’t protect the princess.
In that respect, Kana’s aunt and other aides from the past had a particularly unfortunate end.
It was to the point that he, who used to be the youngest member of his entourage, has now become the second oldest after Lucas.
However, she was not willing to give up her life easily.
you have to protect yourself
you need yourself
Because there is a princess whom I adore.
Tata followed Kana with a confident look as always.
