Interceptor.
“Hmmmmmm.”
with a light hum.
Move your hands slowly.
rotating whetstone.
Steel that is sheared and ground.
It’s sober if it’s sober, but it’s still strangely neat and delicate in the movement.
After repeating the same action for a long time, the man removed his hand from the whetstone.
And the hard stuff.
In other words, he ran his finger across the blade of the knife and nodded in satisfaction.
“hmm. It’s not bad.”
It’s not something to be admired.
Still, it’s pretty usable.
When he evaluated the knife he had sharpened himself, he put it in his jacket pocket.
A voice was heard.
“You’re doing a pretty unprofitable job.”
“Does it look like that?”
“Isn’t it inefficient for someone like you to take care of the knives one by one? It would be more efficient to entrust it to a craftsman.”
“It is not a question of efficiency.”
fed up
Laughing at the words of a true golden lord.
Billy went on leisurely as he picked up a new knife and sharpened it on the rotating whetstone.
“Just as a gunman takes care of his gun himself, it is basic for a swordsman to take care of his own knife.”
To the sword master, the sword is a part of the body.
Although sword painting, which is difficult to live without, is an extreme case.
A swordsman should know his sword like limbs.
If you neglect even these basic things, you can’t even become a proper swordsman, let alone a sword master.
The golden lord narrowed his eyes as he looked at Billy, who spoke calmly but was sensitive to sharpening a knife.
“Is that also the swordsmith’s teaching?”
“That’s how it is.”
“A little surprising. To follow even the teachings of the master who killed him so faithfully.”
“This and that are different. If you lack skills, isn’t it a way to prepare thoroughly?”
“That is true.”
“…don’t take that for granted. In fact, it is true that even these basic things are far from our master nobleman.”
On the other hand, Limon said that he didn’t know how to take care of the sword so that the blade was always so good.
At the end of watching the grumbling Billy.
The Golden Lord opened his mouth again.
“Actually, the reason I came to you is because I have a business.”
“Have you finally got something to do? just say anything This time I’ll show my skills properly…”
“I hear you’ve been getting along with my granddaughter lately.”
Geek.
That was the moment.
The sharpening of the knives on the whetstone without any deviation until now was the first time.
“…No, rather than being close, we just occasionally eat together and chat.”
“I don’t mean to blame you for that.”
“Really?”
“It’s me who entrusted my granddaughter with you in the first place.”
Would this be the case with a rancher who ran into a rancher with a shotgun while trying to work on his granddaughter?
Watching Billy sigh in relief after shedding a cold sweat, the golden lord opened his mouth again.
“It was just unexpected.”
“What do you mean?”
“You, who hates Indians, get along with my granddaughter and other employees without hesitation.”
“Eh? Who says I hate Indians?”
“Wasn’t it?”
“Of course not. I am a believer in the need to end bad habits like racism.”
“…”
“Above all, beauty does not discriminate against skin color.”
“…I do understand.”
It sounds like you want to hear all kinds of crazy things.
The golden lord, who looked at Billy with subtle eyes, nodded only after hearing the next words.
The idiot among the idiots borrowing swords.
Even drinking and gambling women.
It was a very famous fact that he was a man who had been very well educated as a playboy.
Nevertheless, there are still many people who follow him as a hero in the United States, especially among white people.
“Hmm, come to think of it, I also have a few questions. Can I ask you a few questions?”
“What do you mean?”
“You mean the Last War Project. What is the purpose?”
“Have you not heard from my granddaughter?”
“I only heard about it, but there are a lot of things I don’t understand.”
Have you been curious about it?
Billy, who even stopped sharpening the knife, scratched the back of his head and asked.
“Especially, why is it that the World Federation can win and restore true peace and equality to the world by causing a spirit uprising?”
“The reason is simple. Because lies and deceit rule the world today.”
“Do you wear lies and deceit?”
“Yes.”
It’s like you don’t know what to say.
To Billy, who tilted his head.
The golden lord said calmly.
“Did you know that the Golden Dragon Clan put a huge bounty on the Liberation Brigade last year?”
“Ah, if that was the case, I heard the story. Honestly, I’ve been wanting to be a bounty hunter for the first time in a while, isn’t it?”
“That’s right. It was an enormous amount that would shake even a person like you.”
Before the World Federation was established.
The competition with Limon begins.
In that way, when the seven princesses quarreled over the prey called the Liberation Brigade.
He murmured quietly, recalling the enormous sum that Charlotte had bet on the whole world, exceeding even the most national budget.
“…To the extent that it is so incomprehensible that it is so incomprehensible.”
“I agree that the amount is beyond imagination, but I don’t think it’s impossible for the Golden Dragon Clan, right?”
“It’s not that amount that makes me wonder.”
After shaking my head slowly.
The Golden Lord spoke heavily.
“It refers to the world economy where inflation has not occurred even though the Golden Dragon clan has scattered that amount.”
In this iron age, money is power.
It was the almighty key that could do anything with just what it had, and it was also the power itself.
So easy to misunderstand.
The value of money is absolute.
However, after all, money is just a piece of metal or paper with certain patterns and letters and numbers stamped on it.
The value of money varies according to circumstances.
Just as bottled water, which can be bought for a few coins in an ordinary country, is difficult to buy with a bunch of bills in the middle of the desert.
And in the same way.
If the currency in the market is too loose.
Naturally, the value of money falls below the real value, and prices rise.
that’s inflation.
If it leads to hyperinflation, it was a disaster in which tens of billions of dollars of property would become trash overnight.
The governments of each country adjusted the interest rate of banks to maintain the value of currency to prevent such a situation.
However, even though the Golden Dragon family had so many money, the currency value remained stable without such fluctuations in global interest rates.
So it was.
Why did the golden lord feel uncomfortable?
“I was convinced then.”
“…”
“That the world is being deceived by the Seven Dragons.”
if others.
you may not have realized
Even if he realized it, the Seven Dragons would have taken action on their own.
But, of course, it is the only one with financial power comparable to the Seven Dragon Group.
For a long time, only the Golden Lord, who had doubts about the unusually enormous wealth of the Seven Dragons, was able to notice the truth.
“…What do you mean the Seven Dragons are deceiving?”
What is the trick of the Seven Dragons that even the somersault fox couldn’t hear?
Looking at him asking questions.
The golden lord touched the silver coin.
And that’s why he named the ‘Last War Project’ a plan he had been preparing for a long time.
The purpose of investing generously in the World Federation.
At the same time, he quietly spoke of one of the greatest conspiracies in human history, which he finally learned about after meeting the regressive monarch.
“Have you ever heard of the ‘World Peace Plan’?”
* * *
[The cause of the simultaneous rampage of the armored personnel carriers of the wilderness is not the corrupted spirits. It’s precisely because of the virus.]
“A virus?”
[yes. It’s a virus to infect the spirits that the golden lord created with a huge amount of money.]
“Is such an outrageous thing possible?”
[This would be impossible. The normal spirit’s security system couldn’t be penetrated by Yekathrice or any Unmage. But…]
“…If it’s a corrupted spirit that’s not normal, it might be possible.”
[The Golden Lord has already spread the virus in the wilderness. And the infected spirit is spreading it to other fallen spirits.]
“Then, the result of the infection to the armor made after the spirit is this runaway?”
[That’s right.]
All the cities where this happened had records of discovering and recovering abandoned aircraft in the wilderness.
Hearing what Li Qingyu said, Li Mon hardened his face.
The body of the three guns that Alcapano’s organization had picked up.
It was because I realized that it would have become a medium and infect other armor.
If it was a virus that could infect even spirits, it would have been easy to cause the shaman’s armor to go berserk.
“Was it his purpose to make an army out of corrupted spirits?”
[Similar but different. What he wants is not the fallen spirits themselves, but their arithmetic abilities.]
“Analysis abilities?”
[yes. The Golden Lord’s virus was created to bind the fallen spirits into a network so that they could maximize and use their computing power.] “…Are you saying he’s trying to use the
fallen spirits like a computer?”
[To put it bluntly, a super computer… no, a quantum computer might be closer.]
Spirits are beings that transcend humanity.
Even Yekathrice, the greatest genius of the Seven Dragons, is only mimicking part of the technique.
Even for the lowest spirits, all sorts of techniques were applied that would be difficult to understand even with dozens of shamans and scientists clinging to them.
But what if tens of thousands or millions of fallen spirits could all be combined into one and used?
what the hell could happen
It was to the point where I couldn’t even imagine it.
But fortunately.
Or unfortunately.
Li Qingyu already knew where the golden lord was going to use his computing power.
[With that arithmetic ability, the golden lord will do many things. But in the end, the ultimate goal is to attack one system.]
“System?”
[It’s a system that swordsmiths know very well.]
That moment.
Limon’s face hardened.
A sword master’s intuition.
And it was because Noh Kang-ho’s judgmental power informed him.
The fact that the golden lord invests a huge amount of money and uses even the elemental crisis as a means, and there is only one system that can be attacked.
[The secret that the Seven Dragons were able to control the world’s wealth and the Seven Dragon Group’s most fatal weakness.] A
secret known only to a few in the Seven Dragons.
And the conspiracy that made him, who was the enemy of the Seven Dragons, finally admit defeat.
“—The World Peace Plan.”
[Yes, that’s right.]
“….”
[He intends to destroy the entire Seven Dragons group by bursting the bubble created by the Seven Dragons.]
That is the Last War.
It is the real purpose of the Golden Monarch and an economic war unprecedented in history that will bring an end to the world economy and financial market.
Looking at the girl who speaks bitterly.
Limon couldn’t help but put on a stunned expression.
