Chapter 1092: The Empire's Most Ambitious Project Begins
Finishing his preparations, Victor turned his gaze to the people in the room who were gathered in a circle, talking to each other and exchanging ideas.
Feeling Victor's gaze, Violet spoke: "I believe that after understanding the entire project, you should have an estimate of the time needed for the project to be completed."
"..." A silence fell over the room.NoÌv(el)B\\jnn
Assuming the role of leader, Natalia spoke: "Honestly, I predict it will take 80 years for this to be completed."
"...80 years?" Violet raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, we need to refine the plan, inscribe the Runes, erect the structures on the planets to make a large shroud, not to mention the Energy needed to make it all work." The final part of Natalia's speech was said with words that would hint at the Empire's 'Dragon Heart, an Energy core of practically infinite capacity.
Understanding what Natalia was saying, Violet shook her head. "That item wasn't made to release a large amount of Energy needed for this plan, not to mention that the plan is to make Victor and Jeanne into batteries so that time will speed up. When we advance to a satisfactory time, we will immediately stop."
In other words, it was a one-time action, not perpetual, so a Power Generator wasn't necessary. If they used a Power Generator, Victor would need to create another 'Dragon Heart' with a greater Power output, and they would need to redo the entire Energy System of The Empire so that the two Hearts wouldn't clash. After all, they would have different purposes and outputs.
"That's incorrect." Victor floated towards the group while keeping 3 scrolls floating in his hand. "That item can be upgraded. I made it so that its upgrade would affect the entire system connected to it, but without harming the system itself."
"..." The Wives present opened their eyes wide.
Victor gave a small smile, but all the Wives present knew that he was showing a smug smile. He really liked to surprise them.
"Honestly, I have told myself many times not to be surprised by what you do, but you always find ways to make it happen." Scathach sighed.
She'd seen the 'Dragon Heart', so she knew the amount of Energy stored and produced in the Heart was absurd. Even with her senses, she could not see 'how much' Energy that Heart had. She felt as if she was on the beach looking at the
immense ocean.
And he was saying that this ocean could still be upgraded? The very notion of it was ridiculous.
"But as my Empress said, upgrading this item will not be necessary now." Victor floated the scroll he'd created to Scathach and Dun Scaith.
The two of them took the scrolls and opened it. The moment Dun Scaith opened the scroll she'd grabbed, she felt a massive headache. The amount of information she absorbed in just a few seconds of exposure caused her Divine brain to fry. If she were Human, she would have been completely disintegrated from existence. That was the level of Power that these Runes had when they were written by a Master of the craft, especially a Master who was proficient in 3 different Runic Scripts(Languages).
Unlike her former teacher, Scathach could absorb the scrolls' contents easily. One advantage of being a Dragon Goddess was that her physical body was 'real' and not something close to a Divine Spirit like normal Gods. Therefore, she had the advantages of her physical body's Bloodline, and as a Blood Dragon, she had the best possible Bloodline.
"Some paragraphs are incorrect, Darling." Scathach pointed out.
"That's because the scrolls will only make sense if all three are together. I purposely made it in three different parts."
"...Oh, I see what you mean now" Scathach took the scroll in her teacher's hand and threw it into the air. When the three scrolls were opened, a new hologram showing all the original content was made.
"Ugh. Those who weren't Dragon Gods immediately felt their brains fry, just like Dun Scaith.
"I see, I see..."
"What do you think?"
"Yes, it's possible, but this Standard Runic Script can still be updated."
Victor smiled. "Yeah."
Scathach, Jeanne, Aphrodite, and Victor raised their eyebrows when they saw Violet's
smile.
'She's planning something! Scathach thought.
'She's definitely planning something... Can I help her?' Aphrodite thought.
'Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" Jeanne thought.
When Dun Scaith got close to Victor, he raised his huge hand and placed it above her
head, and a violet aura completely covered Dun Scaith.
"... My headache is going away..."
"Since your opinion is important to review the text I wrote and to modify it, I reinforced your mind. But be careful, even with my reinforcement, your mind is not strong enough to handle this kind of information."
"... Are you saying I'm incapable?" Dun Scaith felt her pride being challenged. Victor just gave a neutral smile and said: "You're not incapable. Your body is, your Bloodline is, and some knowledge simply cannot be learned due to the limitations of
the Soul."
"A God's Soul is not as strong as you think it is, especially a normal God's." For all intents and purposes, Dun Scaith was not a normal God, and her Soul was much stronger than most naturally born Gods, and even Primordial ones, but... She was still not as strong as a Dragon God, especially a Dragon God from Victor's Bloodline that was imbued with the Essence of an Outer God. This type of Bloodline granted an extra resistance to things that distorted the mind.
Not to mention that all of his Wives were married to him through Soul Marriage, giving them a part of Victor's Soul that protected them from outside interference, providing them with complete immunity to mental and Soul attacks.
"Are you saying that a Dragon God is better than a normal God?" "Isn't that obvious?" Victor smiled with evident pride.
"Then I ask that you transform me into a Dragon God." She asked humbly. She would
not let her body hinder her thirst for knowledge.
"That is impossible. Only my Wives can share my Bloodline. Go back to your work. I recommend only 4 hours of reading my text." Victor then became extremely serious. "And for the love of God, do not try to understand the unknown characters of my
Scripts." "...You will go mad."
"." The brown-haired woman just stared at Victor with an intensity greater than
normal, an intensity that was replicated by Albedo herself, who was listening to the conversation.
Victor sighed internally when he saw her turn around and go back to Scathach. 'She
will definitely try to understand them, won't she? The same applies to that stupid Witch over there! He could already see it happening.
