100 years? 100 years?

Master said that it would take me about 30 years to become a master, so 100 years was more than enough time for me to become a master 3 times. It is also a time that will remain even if the rivers and mountains change ten times.

I asked Dispense.

“Isn’t there a way to reduce the scale a bit and recover faster? At least a certain amount of combat is possible within a year.”

The broken mechanical eye blinked at me.

– Heir. Could you please tell me your name?

“My name is Marnak.”

– yes. Heir Marnak. Is it okay if I ask what kind of small scale the heir is referring to? Are troops small enough to conquer a quarter of an ’empire’? Or is it small enough to conquer an eighth of an empire?

It seems that these poor machines have been locked up here in the lab too long to know that the ancient empire is doomed.

“The empire is ruined.”

Dispens replied in a brighter voice.

– The remnants of the divided empire! Conquest will be easier! If so, let’s reduce the scale a little and restore it within 50 years!

“Is it impossible within one year?”

– You mean a year?

Metal claws protruding from the ceiling scratched Dispens’ eyes.

– Heir. I also want to make all the troops right away for the heir, but for this large-scale production, the ‘raw materials’ and ‘production facilities’ are required. The fuel needed for production is a natural bonus. Unless you know how the resources are distributed around here, I estimate that it will take at least 20 to 30 years to complete the production facilities and collect the necessary resources and fuel.

So it’s useless right now. While I was contemplating, metal hands protruding from the ceiling quickly began fixing Dispens’s eyes. After a while, Dispens shouted in a bright voice.

– You finally got your vision sensor back! It’s been a while since I’ve seen this control room!

The metal eyes saw me struggling and blinked rapidly.

– Is there a force that threatens the heir enough to prepare an army in such a short time?

It was not wrong. Both the worshipers of evil gods and the priests could show their enmity to me at any time.

“For now, yes.”

Metal eyes twitched. Anyone could see that there was a lot of joy in that powerful gesture.

– enemy! The enemy exists! I will annihilate all enemies and create an army to protect the heir from danger! 1 year! This must be very busy! great! Heir! This dispensation will restore a very small portion of the army within a year! Rest in peace for just one year, heir, inside this institute!

Dispense was misunderstanding something. I needed to correct the illusion of those bobbing mechanical eyes.

“I’m not going to stay here. I already have a lot of work to do.”

The large mechanical eyes flinched and stopped to stare at me.

– Is it possible that the heir will also leave us…? It’s dangerous out there! That Dispensing will provide the Heir with maximum comfort, so I hope the Heir can rest well here! The army that the successor told me to build within a year was somehow squeezed into 11 months! Let’s shorten it to 11 months!

‘Murder and kill?’

Asked if it wouldn’t be bad to hide here for only 11 months and go find the holy relic with the army of machines.

Certainly, in terms of stability, that was right. But I had one thing on my mind. As always.

Existence of the main quest. There was a high possibility that the activities of large-scale worshipers of evil spirits, which have been taking place continuously these days, are connected to the main quest.

Not only that, but one of the confessions that Jamel vomited to me really bothered me.

The word that he succeeded in ‘falling’ a god.

I had a vague feeling that I couldn’t stay here like this.

I gestured toward the dispensing.

“Come here for a moment.”

– yes.

The mechanical eyes moved with a squeak as they came closer to me. I reached out and patted the mechanical eye.

“I rarely give up on my own. I never give up on what I can get. So don’t think I’ll give up on such a wonderful legacy. I will never abandon you.”

The mechanical eyes trembled.

– Heir after…!

The figure that vibrates with intense emotion resembled someone. Dispens lowered his eyes and said.

– All right! this dispensing! I will believe in the successor! Heirs, tour the continent to your heart’s content! In the meantime, this dispensing will create an army to dedicate this continent, or this entire dimension, to the heir and support the heir!!!

‘killing…?’

I asked if that machine was too easy-going. I tried to tell her that my mother was just that mild-mannered, but it was clear that she would go on a rampage right away, so I held back.

– Still, it’s true that I’m a bit worried about sending the heir alone, so please take Tergio with me. I will use my remaining resources to repair Tergio as much as possible.

As soon as his name was called, the metal knight knelt down next to me and said,

– Please give me the honor of being able to assist the heir.

The 4-meter metal knight is too conspicuous to carry around, but for now, other races may claim that he is a gold man. It was only a matter of time before the real Gold Man found out that he wasn’t a Gold Man the moment he saw Tergio.

“That would be a bit embarrassing because it would stand out so much.”

Tergio quickly responded to my words.

– That’s no problem!

At the same time as he said that, Tergio shrank in an instant, shrinking to the size of a handheld toy. The petite Tergio shouted vigorously.

– Put me in your pocket! Heir! When the heir is needed, I will become a knight and be the sword of the heir!

‘Kill!!!’

A strong claim that pockets are their place and cannot be shared with anyone else. I laughed bitterly when my mother said that the only person who could ride in Marnak’s pocket was herself.

“Would you be able to make it the size of a normal person?”

– it’s possible!

Terzio stretched slowly and soon became a two-meter metal knight. It was just right to woogi as a gold man, and even if he ran into a gold man, it would have been enough to say that it was an ancient artifact obtained from an ancient ruin. If it was 2 meters tall, unlike the case of 4 meters, it could have been covered with a robe to properly hide its identity.

A knight made of Immortalium. This looks like a really strong supporter.

“Okay. Tergio, please accompany me.”

– It is an honour!!!

At the same time as that cry, a large tong protruded from the ceiling and grabbed Terzio and took him somewhere. Dispens said excitedly, narrowing his eyes.

– We will start repairing Tergio right away! The first aid will be completed in about 3 hours, so please wait for the successor!

“Yes. I will.”

‘killing!’

Mother’s joyful cry that she is now completely rich. Even if he sold only the Immortalium soldiers left here, he could build a mountain with gold, so he wasn’t wrong.

Jamel, who had been standing still next to me, muttered to himself, ‘This is a golden rope…!’ with twinkling eyes.

“Priest Marnak.”

“yes.”

Dakia, who came next to me, said with a wide smile.

“Absolutely congratulations! I don’t know the details of what happened, but congratulations anyway!”

Ah, since I haven’t heard of Fossorina, Dakia might not know that well.

I smiled and said.

“thank you.”

While we were exchanging good wishes, Dispens, who was busy, spoke to me.

– Ah, heir. I have recovered the Immortalium from the group sent by the Heir.

A metal soldier with a burnt head? Well, it didn’t matter if Posorina took it or Dispensed, but it was there anyway.

“Good job.”

‘killing!’

Mother’s cry to ask for it when leaving the ruins. I asked Dispense.

“Would it be all right if I took the metal soldier with me when I go out?”

– Is it okay if I ask why?

I was a bit embarrassed to say it myself, but I accepted my shame and spoke up.

“I’m going to sell it and turn it into money.”

– Is your heir poor?

There was money earned at the gambling house, but not poverty. I wasn’t completely wealthy either.

“It’s normal.”

– Ordinary! I’m very worried about your heir’s financial situation! Then how would you like to do this?

“How do you mean?”

– Since Immortalium is an important strategic resource, it is far better to keep it inside the research center than to sell it to outside forces. Instead, when I gather other resources, I will slightly increase the rate of gold and gems. Please wait a little bit to say that you have enough money to live on right now. This dispensing will sweep all the goods of this continent and offer them to the heir!!!

‘killing…?!’

The dispensing was so competent that the mother was taken by surprise.

‘Kill kill!’

I laughed bitterly as I patted my mother, who grumbled that she was feeling anxious for some reason, as if her position was being threatened.

“I don’t need all the goods on the continent. But would it be okay if I ask just one?”

– Ask any number! Conversation with Heir is like salt and light to me! Oh, I don’t need either. In an idiomatic sense, yes! I hope I didn’t misunderstand you!

I smiled and nodded and asked Dispense a question.

“You’ve been telling me that you’re harvesting something, but it sounds like this lab can move freely.”

The metal eyes nodded vigorously.

– you’re right! Heir! This laboratory is designed to be both amphibious and airborne!

The slightly muted mechanical sound continued in a low voice.

– Of course, as of now, it is so broken that it has lost most of its functionality. So I’m going to restore the minimum facilities so that I can move underground, and then go collect the resources needed for restoration! Even at this moment, all the stockpile resources are being put into operation, and restoration is proceeding step by step!

An underground laboratory…?

I involuntarily exclaimed in admiration.

“That’s great.”

– Thank you for the compliment!

The mechanical one-eyed excitedly expressed joy.

***

Three hours later, Tergio came to us, fresh and clean, waving his blue cape. Dispens said in a cheerful voice.

– Unless you are a master, there will be no opponent who can match Tergio who gave you first aid one-on-one! If I had enough time and resources, I would have been able to recover Tergio to the point where I could deal with at least one ‘master’… It’s too bad. But I’ll make it for you soon, heir, don’t be discouraged!

Dispens, who played drums and drums by himself, continued talking by himself.

– I put a terminal that can communicate with me in Tergio, so if you want to contact me, you can tell Tergio anytime!

“All right.”

The one-eyed metal stared at me and sighed.

– Then, goodbye for a while. successor. This dispensing will always do its best for the successor! So would it be all right if I ask you a small favor…?

I nodded my head at the very, very carefully asked question.

“Tell me.”

– You don’t have to do that… but if you feel like it, I would like you to contact me through Tergio. Would you please…?

Could it be that Dispense, like Ceylon, is worried that I won’t come back? I smiled softly at the machine I feared being abandoned.

“I will.”

– thank you! Heir!!! This Dispensing will surely bring this world to its knees before the successor!!! Heir, please trust me completely!!!

It didn’t have to be that way, but it didn’t even kill the spirit of the dispensation, which was overjoyed here. I answered lightly.

“I look forward to it.”

That’s how we got out of the ruins through a different exit from Posorina and the demon worshipers.

***

A few days later.

“You’re back at last. It’s been a long time.”

At my words, Dacia smiled bitterly as she looked at the capital in the distance.

“For some reason, it feels like it took a very long time to come back. After all, it’s only been a few days.
