"Haha." Sylvia scornfully laughed as Sophia left the room.
"..." Dylan didn't say anything and stared at the Goddess of Blessings. "I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon. Maybe it was, an hour or two ago?"
"Yeah, that's fast. So, as you told me before. Can you show me the most advanced weapons of destruction created by the Evil God and you devils?" Nell gave a small nod and looked at the magic items around the room. She then looked at the long-barreled cannon in Dylan's hand.
"Okay, that's what I promised you. All weapons in this room are limited to mini versions and prototypes, the original ones are in the research factory. But, before that, allow me to speak to my unruly daughter first." Dylan put his hand on his daughter's shoulder. "Sylvia, my daughter."
"Y-yes?" Sylvia instantly became nervous and tense. She didn't know what might await her, but it was definitely not the good one.
"Do you remember what you did about two weeks ago before running away from home?" Dylan asked in a neutral tone.
"Me? I sneak away like a shadow in the night?" Sylvia turned around to face her father and answered innocently.
"Is that all?" Dylan emphasized his words.
"Yes, maybe? I guess, that's all..." Sylvia scratched her head.
Dylan took a deep breath and closed his eyes. The moment he opened his eyes again, his expression immediately turned furious. "You brought half of the palace treasury and you pretend it's nothing!? Not to mention you, you took away the long-barreled cannon, codename prototype one and several other weapons. Now tell me, where is it all?"
"Auu, no need to yell at me either, right?" Sylvia looked up slightly to meet her father's face with a cutesy expression.
"Is everything still with you? Everything is still with you, right? Now, give it back to me." Dylan stretched out his hand as if asking for something right away.
"No way... You promised to grant my wish, but you ignored it. So, I took for myself something of at least the same value." Sylvia pouted and immediately turned around. She tried to run away to get protection from her group.
Unfortunately, a big strong hand suddenly grabbed onto her shoulder and forced her back to her starting position.
"You can't run away from this. I'm saying it again, give everything back now. You have no idea what you've brought into the production of armaments." Dylan held onto his daughter's arms to ensure she didn't run away.
"Oow, that hurts. Ely, please help me! My father looks scary." Sylvia turned to her ever kind friend for emergency assistance.
"You deserve the family punishment for stealing your father's stuffs." Yuuki muttered lightly.
"Err..." Elysia awkwardly smiled as everyone stared at her. She didn't know why everyone seemed to consider she was responsible for Sylvia.
Even so, she immediately opened her mouth to calm things down with the best solution. "Sylvi, please return what your father asked for. Half of your father palace treasury is something that can mess things up. We are all in preparation for a great war, you see? That could be called stealing. If you want to make your father keep his word to grant your wish, you can say your wish in front of him. You're a wise and smart girl, please understand, okay?"
"I didn't steal! I just took it without anyone knowing it..." Sylvia puckered her lips as she sulked. Even so, she took out a black Space Bag from inside her Space Bag and handed it over to her father. "Here, I give this to you, but it's not returning anything."
Dylan received the Space Bag and checked its contents.
Seeing that opportunity, Sylvia immediately ran away and hid behind Elysia.
"Well, it's still intact and untouched. So, you haven't used a single treasure and resource from here, hmm? Eh, wait, where are the weapons? The long-barreled cannon with codename one isn't there either." Dylan put his hands into the Space Bag and rummaged through its contents to check it a second time.
"You didn't lose it or damage it by mistake, did you?" Dylan frowned.
"I, I didn't damage those silver weapons. I'm innocent, but, but-" Sylvia was at a loss to explain.
Some of the silver weapons had indeed been destroyed when she fought against that hateful man, but she did not dare to admit it for fear of punishment.
"But? You broke the codename one and all the other weapons?" Dylan secured the black Space Bag and crossed his arms to glare at his daughter. He wanted to know the truth.
"I didn't break it on purpose! It's because that accursed man did it. But, but, Ely fixed it." Sylvia defended herself on the grounds of factual events.
"Huh? Then, give me all those weapons too. They are still unstable, but the codename one is very important for a production sample of a long-barreled cannon like this. Either it's the big and small version." Dylan raised his long-barreled cannon and patted it.
"Fine then. Here. But, you owe me one in addition to your promise to grant my one wish." Sylvia took out another black Space Bag and stretched out her hand.
"Fair enough." Dylan swung his arm and sent that Space Bag flying towards him. He took the long-barreled cannon out of it to check the extent of the damage, but he couldn't see even a single scratch on it.
"Has this weapon been damaged before?" Dylan looked at his daughter with a confused look.
"I told you earlier. Ely fixed it for me. It's as good as new, right?" Sylvia was a bit nervous if the weapon didn't function as it did before.
"Well..." Dylan secured everything and tidied up the weapons in the room into his Space Bag. After that, he came before everyone. "Let's go. I'll show you the Devil Race's prowess in technology and weaponry."
"Good. Show us the way." Nell pointed her palm toward the door.
Dylan then walked in front and guided everyone to follow him. They all went to an underground factory, but that was not their destination. They just kept moving past it to get to the weapons arsenal.
"Woah..." Ella couldn't help but be amazed to see magic tools as big as a house, and there were so many of them.
"So this is called a weapons factory. All those weapons look dangerous." Evelyn raised her eyebrows as she felt uneasy to know the Devil Race would be such a high threat because of all those weapons.
"Hm, yes. This weapon factory looks great and the weapons produced look dangerous. The combat power of the devils can increase sharply and potentially endanger all other races." Lynn nodded in agreement as she stared at the factory situation behind the glass below.
"Each race has their own preparations. If you think the Devil Race is the most dangerous because of this, then you will be very surprised to see what the Dwarven Race has. They prepared everything without the help of divine beings." Nell glanced sideways and shrugged as if she wasn't interested. She could tell that the guns down there were inferior to the long-barreled cannon just now.
"Hou~ Now I'm very interested in Dwarven Race war preparation." Dylan smirked in response.
"You can exchange information at the grand meeting next week that will involve all the leaders on every continent." Nell reminded the Devil Emperor casually.
"Hm, I'll be really looking forward to next week then, keke..." Dylan chuckled and looked back at the front. They were almost at the weaponry arsenal.
"Uuu, that evil laugh doesn't sound good to me. Hopefully next week's grand meeting doesn't trigger any trouble or strife." Elysia muttered under her breath.
"Don't worry, Ely. My father isn't that stupid in that matter. He won't offend anyone much stronger than him for no reason." Sylvia reassured Elysia with a soft whisper.
"And your father ridiculously attacked Ely for no reason and ended up lying on the ground, right?" Elena smirked mockingly.
"..." Dylan stumbled a bit, but he pretended nothing had happened.
"Urgh, I can't deny it." Sylvia looked away as she was embarrassed to remember that. She then changed the topic of conversation to involve Elysia and the other girls. "Nee, do you know what the Dwarven Race prepared for the great war? I could kind of guess that they could create a floating island, am ultimate weapon of mass destruction."
"Uhm, I don't know."
"Why are you so sure of that?"
"Do any of you know anything?"
"I need a clue. To guess something like this is difficult."
The girls looked at each other and gave mixed responses. But basically the same, they don't know anything.
"Let's ask the Goddess of Blessings?" Elysia gave a suggestion because she felt these girls were very curious.
With that being said, Elysia represented the girls to ask Nell about the Dwarven Race war preparation.
Dylan slowed his pace to eavesdrop because he was curious too.
"Well, you ask and I'll enlighten you on what I encountered on the Dwarven Continent. They--" Nell then explained the advanced weapons that the Dwarven Race prepared for the great war.
"--Besides the modified Floating Fortress, they have one other ultimate weapon. They named it the Attack Airship, a winged ship that has a lot of weaponry in it. Actually, they have a lot of it in their Floating Fortress!" Nell ended her explanation with a bit of emphasis.
"That Floating Fortress is turning into an aircraft carrier now? I wonder what it looks like now.. And the Attack Airship?" Elena put her hand to her chin as she wondered.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Haha." Sylvia scornfully laughed as Sophia left the room.
"..." Dylan didn't say anything and stared at the Goddess of Blessings. "I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon. Maybe it was, an hour or two ago?"
"Yeah, that's fast. So, as you told me before. Can you show me the most advanced weapons of destruction created by the Evil God and you devils?" Nell gave a small nod and looked at the magic items around the room. She then looked at the long-barreled cannon in Dylan's hand.
