Peru stood in front of a furnace of white smoke. The sight of throwing broken metal into the furnace looked somewhat lonely. The captain called Peru.
“Peru. They came.”
Peru turned her head after hearing the captain’s voice. Peru, who confirmed our appearance, looked back at the furnace and said.
“…for a moment. It’s still there.”
“All right. I have work to do, so I’ll go first. Be safe.”
“…Thank you.”
The captain bowed his head and walked away. After that came silence. The regressor asked in frustration at the sight of Peru throwing metal without saying anything.
“What’s left, but you keep putting it in?”
“…menstruum.”
“menstruum? animal?”
“…no. Rocket’s weapon.”
Rocket only has one weapon. His juggernaut, the Solvent. As soon as he realized that, the regressor was shocked and asked.
“Juggernaut? There’s a Juggernaut in that furnace?”
“…huh.”
“I heard that the only person who can alchemize it is the Golden Sutra. What are you?”
“…it’s not a pension. I can only disassemble.”
Peru shook her head and threw the last piece into the furnace. The furnace that had swallowed a lot of prey trembled as if it would explode at any moment.
“…Yeolpok tried to self-destruct with the Juggernaut. Otherwise, the precious Juggernaut would be gone. so i blocked it I had no intention of saving you.”
“joy. You won’t die just because you exploded it?”
“…it doesn’t matter.”
Peru shook her head and turned the lever on the furnace. The furnace lid closed at an angle, and a rough boat horn could be heard through the gap. Between them, Peru’s low voice was heard.
“…When war breaks out, when rubble piles up. Nations grow rich. But a lot will die. Huntsmen and soldiers of the military.”
“Hmm? well~ I don’t think the military is particularly likely to lose to the nations.”
“…that doesn’t matter either.”
Neither the regressor nor Hilde seemed to understand the language of Peru.
Because our values are different, the focus is slightly off. Both the regressor and Hilde are discussing the outcome of the battle, but Peru doesn’t care about that. As an alchemist, ‘which side you are on’ is not important to her values.
“What matters to you is not winning or losing, but total value, right? Are you reluctant to suffer losses in battles or wars?”
“…huh.”
“It is the mind of an alchemist. It is a bit unexpected that the entire value of the country is on one side of the scale.”
“…not my scale. Because it is the scale of the golden mirror.”
Finally, Peru performed its unique magic. I was frightened and tried to pull myself away, but fortunately this time the unique magic didn’t reach me. Peru’s power to disintegrate matter only worked inside the furnace.
With the combined power of Peru, the furnace really heated up.
Most furnaces are powered by horsepower. Before alchemy appeared, it was said to melt metal by making a big fire, but after the development of alchemy and white magic, that method was abandoned. He would alchemize metal with magical power itself, or if that was difficult, he would process it by generating flames with magical power.
However, the Juggernaut bestowed by the Golden Mirror heats the furnace with Peru’s unique magic. Unique Mado is to impose one’s own rules on the world. Most of the cases are not compatible with anything because it is unique… but the Juggernaut of the Golden Jing is a mystery beyond unique magic.
Power and heat escape from the steel that has been destroyed by unique magic. It is condensed even more as it is confined to the metal of the golden mirror. Then, the moment it crosses a certain critical point, it flows all over the Juggernaut on a complex mechanism.
And the furnace began to move with a rattle.
The stern surged through the mound of dirt. A giant caterpillar climbs against the pouring dirt and sand. Swimming in the sea of sand and dirt, the Juggernaut hidden in it appeared.
The furnace was only one part of this juggernaut. It was several times larger than that, including the part buried in the soil. With its streamlined tracks, the Juggernaut looked like a huge ship with a furnace as its horn.
The Juggernaut landed dully on the ground. Unfortunately, the fence in front of it was broken, but no one had time to care. In front of a huge vehicle with wheels over 3m tall, the fence was not even a stone beak.
“…So I hope you don’t fight.”
Peru walked up on it. Peru, who looked back in front of the stairs, looked back.
“…get on. I will guide you.”
There is no reason to give up. We nodded our heads and got on the Juggernaut without saying a word
.
“Wait. What about ‘our’ Cataphracts?”
“This looks much better, shall we?”
“What are you talking about! The Military Cataphract is the most technological and superior all-weather mount! It is the essence of military technology that is more economical and quiet than a needlessly large Juggernaut, and can be used universally by ordinary soldiers!”
“I’m sorry, Hilde. But once I’ve ridden the Juggernaut… I’m not satisfied with such an insignificant mount.”
“This is not okay! Men know that big and grand is the best! You mustn’t throw away Jo Kang-ji’s wife!”
“Before the Cataphract, there was Aji dog sledding. After all, that was the first mount I ever made.”
“bruise! never again! it’s hard!”
Aji shook his head as if tired. Rather than saying that dog sledding is hard, it probably means that it’s hard to care about my safety hanging behind it. It will be difficult to ride dog sledding in the future.
At that time, Peru, who had been listening to the story, pointed to the deck and said.
“…bring it. I have room to put it.”
“I don’t like that offer for some reason! It’s like Juggernaut boasts that he’s big enough to carry ‘my’ Cataphract!”
“Until Hilde said it herself, it must have been a proposal with pure intentions.”
“That’s why I hate it even more! You should at least brag!”
Why are you complaining so much? Do you hate being compared by nations? In fact, it is clear that he loves the military more than anyone else.
oh wait
“Wait a minute, Hilde. Rather, where did you put the Cataphract?”
“That’s right, outside the fence… uh.”
Hilde looked down. I saw something familiar under the trampled fence. The familiar mechanical device that was horribly broken and bounced off, too.
Earn 1 military defeat.
Juggernaut Golden Ship of Peru. The infinite castle sailing the sea of sand quietly moved through the lands of the nations.
Even when strong wind blows, the steel body does not shake. It treads lightly on boulders and climbs steep hills smoothly. The name of the golden ship is not just colorless. Unlike the ocean, there were no waves on the land, so there was nothing to hinder the advance of the golden ship.
Living in a cabin below deck, we enjoyed a more comfortable trip than ever before. Tyr sat down in a chair and evaluated the comfort of the golden ship.
“It is soft and quiet. I can’t tell if I’m riding a mount or sitting in an elegant castle. It is the most delightful wonder I have seen in my near future.”
It didn’t show much on his face, but Peru replied happily.
“…Because of the displacement move.”
“Substitutional move? Phew what is that?”
Realizing that Peru isn’t very good at explaining, Tyr naturally turned his head to me. I think I’m a vending machine with answers. I also don’t know what humans don’t know.
what. I read Peru’s thoughts, so I know, but I know.
“It is an ideal movement method that comes down to the strongest in theory in alchemy. Tyr Usually, when you want to go fast, objects in front of you get in the way, right? Like the wind colliding, or a stone that tumbles.”
“Or the sunlight.”
No, sunlight would not be included in the target. Anyway.
“If we disintegrate such obstacles with alchemy the moment we touch them, the obstacles that should be in our way will not be able to block us at all, right? You will be able to proceed without any obstruction.”
“Hmm. I guess so.”
“yes. In addition, if you restore the original state after passing through the obstruction that was disassembled, you can get the effect that the obstruction pushes your back, right? I also recover the mana I used to disassemble it.”
This is an alchemy-based technique that a genius came up with. is a displacement move.
Tir pondered the concept and clapped his hands.
“According to what you said, you will be able to advance as if a fair wind is blowing even on the bare ground!”
“Theoretically, you can walk through the ground as if you were walking. It’s ‘theoretically’ anyway.”
As is the case anywhere in the world, what is theoretically possible implies virtually impossible. If it had become like a horse, it wouldn’t have come down as a legend.
“Actually, it takes time to dismantle an obstacle with alchemy, and if it is not properly dismantled, the mana residue becomes an obstacle, and no matter how hard you try to reconstruct it, you cannot get back the consumed mana with 100% efficiency. It’s close to impossible.”
“Close means not impossible, right?”
“I heard rumors that there are wildcats that travel underground by displacement. Do you use the name Mole instead of Seungnyangi? However, it is said to be too slow compared to the theory, so it is impossible to use it except when ambush a sleeping opponent. Even with a human body, but how do you make it into a device? Absolutely not.”
When I said this, Tyr tilted his head and asked again.
“But you did.”
“what?”
That’s right. How did you do it?
The power to disintegrate matter even if it has inherent magic. It is not a universal skill like alchemy, but a very limited ability that only Peru has. Utilizing that ability and applying it to such a large Juggernaut…?
There’s no way to explain it. Are you the same human? Even I, the king of men, can’t guess what kind of monster it is.
“This must also be the dignity of the Golden Sutra.”
“…hmm.”
In the meantime, Peru, who heard me, was satisfied with a small snort. I didn’t really compliment you, so why are you shrugging? Have you become one with the golden mirror? Are compliments directed at the Golden Goblet regarded as compliments to you?
“Chi! This is a scam!”
Also, in the midst of this, there is a person who hears the praise of the nations as an insult to the military and an insult to himself. Hilde stamped her feet and expressed displeasure.
“They don’t even know the structure of the Juggernaut. I don’t even know how it works! I’m just wearing it because it was given to me by the golden mirror! Unlike the Cataphracts of the military, there is no blood, sweat, or effort in the Juggernaut!”
“…This is also the dignity of the Golden Sutra.”
you liked that use it right away
Hilde, whose medicine had risen, grumbled.
“You’re really good!”
bang. Hilde stomped her feet, mixed with a little displeasure. It was a kick with destructive intentions, but the Juggernaut was not broken, let alone distorted in the slightest.
This must also be the dignity of the golden mirror. cancer.
“Chet! I can’t. ‘I’ must also not show the dignity of the military!”
“Did you have anything to show in the military? Surely it’s not like a cooking technique demonstration, is it? I’d advise just in case, but that’s not something to brag about. The more you do it, the lower your nationality will be.”
“Heung Do you think ‘J’ is an old general? It can’t be! Father, keep your mouth shut!”
Hilde, who was frantic, pointed upward as if she had suddenly remembered.
“Oh right. Aji was chasing a horse on the Peru deck?”
“…ah.”
Aurea, a Peruvian horse, grazes in a small field on the deck. Until now, Aurea would have lived a comfortable and pleasant life on the moving ground, but now that Aji was there, she was constantly suffering.
Aji rode the horse whenever he had a chance, barking left and right, trying to get in his way. The cowardly Aurea howled sadly, and Peru had to climb up and remove Aji each time. No matter what anyone says, I listened to people pretty well.
