Deus: We are all Lords
65 15
In reality he hadn't exactly found her territory for this mission to be taking place but apparently Fallen Lords or Governors have some sort of arrow pointing towards their territory at all times. It seems like the system is constantly reminding them that they should go reclaim their land.
"You have no idea what that beast was capable of… it moved so fast; we could barely keep up… strong enough to send my strongest High Orc flying with just it's momentum…."
"Okay stop…. Now take a deep breath and exhale…. True, I may not really know what anything in this world is actually capable of but I do know that an Orc king is as capable as a normal Demon Goblin and you have 50 of those acting as your bodyguard on this mission" Kingsley replied
He may not be the best motivator… that has been proven in his last two speeches but he did know how to speak facts. It was true that he didn't know the exactly strength of anything on this planet since he was either way more powerful or said being was one his side.
He had never fought Viktor or Hestia because there was no point to it and he was powerful enough to simply kidnap multiple dragons and monsters of same level so he truly had no idea how strong anything was but at least he had seen his soldiers fight against Orc Kings during the Wave.
The girl in question here has killed more than five of them to even be worried about this. Rationality made him somewhat frustrated at the fact that she was acting like this but understanding that she was human and was about to go face the creature that made her hate Orcs in general, Kingsley decided it was better to motivate her.
"What if…."
"No, what ifs, Hestia is also there with you and the Demon Goblins wouldn't let anything happen to you" Kingsley reassured as he opened his arms and hugged her.
He didn't know if it was because he had spent close to a week with her by his side or if it was because the girl was just a little girl but Kingsley somewhat cared enough for her to instruct Hestia to take care of her. Though he couldn't lie, her hate or fear for Orcs was annoying him and preventing the expansion of his army but then again, he was the big brother in this situation, he was required to look after her.
"Your Majesty, everything is ready" Viktor said as he appeared before them
"Good, now you go show that Orc King what being a Lord truly means" Kingsley said as he passed her on to Viktor
"Is her team ready?"
"Yes, my King"
"Good then lead her to the Carrier, they leave in 20 minutes" Kingsley ordered changing from a loving big brother to a cold leader
Seeing his change in domineer, Alex knew it was time to go and she steeled her heart and marched on to the Carrier with Viktor by her side. The best way to overcome fear or a problem was to face it and that was what she was going to do, the orc king may have been powerful but now she was stronger and her men were better equipped.
"Lady Alex, if I may…. I suggest you remain far from the battlefield; you trained as a sniper not a hand-to-hand combatant, leave the fighting to H'tia, she is better equipped and well trained for that" Viktor advised
"Thanks, I will keep that in mind" Alex answered as she boarded the massive cuboid box
Boarding the carrier, she found the entire thing filled with soldiers, each one equipped with his/her weapons and equipment. In the center of the carrier, Alex could see some bags piled up along with some extra equipment. This made her feel like she was in one of those Hollywood movies except the soldiers here were impossibly tall and just as pale.
"Are you ready, My Lady?" H'tia asked as she sat down beside her
"I hope so, I don't think I am the revenge type so this is somewhat new territory for me"
"Don't worry, we are always here for you" H'tia said as she placed her hand on the girl's hand, interlocking their fingers together
"Thank you" Alex said looking towards her small group of surviving High Orcs.
Several minutes later, the K-5's door was closed as it slightly took off from the ground. It's movement so smooth and noiseless that the ones inside it barely noticed when it first took off, the only thing that indicated so was the windows on the craft.
As one would expect, as soon as the craft took off, the entire team in it, Alex included all looked out the window feeling a little giddy inside. Some of them may have been in actual planes before like Alex and some of them may have abilities that allow them to at least imitate flight like the Demon Goblins with their Blood wings.
Some of them though had never flown before either by contraptions like a plane or by their own power but the K-5 carrier was a whole new territory. This was a contraption built using magical techniques and a modern style, in fact in modern terms, this could be described as an Electric Vehicle…. well it followed the format of an electric vehicle with the battery and charging panels.
Meanwhile back on the ground, the entire army who were preparing themselves for their own mission stood and watched as the Carrier climbed up to a certain height before blasting off into God knows where at speeds they didn't expect. Kingsley wasn't exempted from this as he was also amazed by the vehicle itself and also the fact that he was using them as somewhat of a test subject to see what he needed to improve on.
"All hail magic" Kingsley commented
He may not be so good at physics but he at least knew that such acceleration speed would be bad for the human body but tests so far has proven that the people on the inside would barely notice the speed unless they look outside the windows.
"The K-5 is better than I thought" A feminine voice called out from behind him drawing his attention
"How is it?" Kingsley asked with a smile
"I don't know, it's weird, it feels like a body outside my own body" Hestia explained
"Well, it is but don't worry you will get used to it though I suggest you find somewhere quiet to help you get used to the multiple point of views" Kingsley suggested as Hestia took a small bow and faded away.
She was the brain behind the self-driving vehicle or in modern terms, she was the A.I powering it. Without Hestia, there would be no k-5... as for how he had managed to impact Hestia's consciousness into the K-5, he had no idea. His powers did allow him to bypass many things but this was one of those things that nonsensical science could explain.
He had created a special Golem core that was more like an external server for a spirit like Hestia to extend themselves to or inhabit entirely. The explanation was simple but the actual working behind it was just straight up impossible to understand with normal science but Kingsley believed that anyone versed in Magical Craftmanship should be able to do since it was Alex's idea in the first place.
"Viktor, you are in charge of today's activities, I have a place to be" Kingsley said when the demon emperor finally returned
"As you wish, my lord"
"I may return with a friend that may help you so be prepared to welcome him... her or them.... I don't really know yet" Kingsley commented as he walked away
"As long as they are loyal to you then I shall welcome them with open arms" Viktor said as he got on his knee and put one arm across his chest
"You really need to lighten up a bit... anyway see ya" Kingsley said then faded out of existence... well that was what it looked like to normal people.
Viktor remained kneeling until Kingsley teleported away then stood up and turned around to see the massive army that were all going about their business. Taking a deep breath as though to take it all in, Viktor's entire aura changed as soon as he exhaled... He was the oldest member of this territory and had watched it grow so he planned to do the best he could now that his master had left him in charge.
Viktor immediately left the outskirts of the territory and walked straight into the war room from which he would have a better eye over things. His generals could also be seen all standing there along several other Demon Goblins who all saluted and went about their day.
