Build a Human Empire by Creating Clans

Chapter 27

“My last name is Lundlingen. You may also use it if you wish. Pasimea.”

Pasimea smiled lightly.

“It’s Pasimea Lundlingen… It’s a bit masculine, but I like it.”

challenge you to a duel

###

A descendant of the same class as Calliope.

And skill level increase.

I clenched my fists while shouting joy inwardly.

‘Now the skill cooldown is 12 hours.’

reduced to half of what it was before.

In one month, he was able to create 60 followers.

With less than 30 people, you captured the Iron Fog tribe.

What would happen if it was twice that, there was nothing to say.

‘There is no alarm to adjust the grade probability.’

To reduce the probability of a low-grade follower being created,

To increase the probability of a high-grade family member being created,

Since there is no alarm, the probability is the same as the previous grade.

‘It’s unfortunate, but it’s enough just to shorten the time.’

It’s not like I’m sticking with a goblin or a dwarf.

What was urgent right away was not the strong family, but the family itself.

A situation where the number is so short that external manpower must be obtained.

There was no better effect than the effect of doubling the number of followers.

‘Every time the rating goes up, the light explodes.’

I suddenly realized.

Calliope, Gerhard, and Pasimea.

When they were created, they had a few things in common.

The light bursting and the skill level going up.

‘Is it given as a reward as the grade goes up?’

Let’s say bursting light is a characteristic of high-ranking members.

Why does a high-grade family member appear every time the skill grade goes up?

‘Bonus according to grade up, I guess.’

“you.”

I awoke a pensive consciousness.

Pasimea was looking up at me with a frown on her face.

“It’s amazing that you have other thoughts in front of a lady.”

She groaned and touched the ponytail on her shoulder.

“so? What can I call you?”

“comfortable. Anything is fine as long as it doesn’t raise the level too much.”

“Then Edar.”

Pasimea replied with a slight smile.

“Since you said it, there is no need to add Nim, right?”

I smiled and nodded.

Her attitude was very different from the rest of her family.

Griff, who is often pointed out by Calliope, is not like this.

Pasimea’s demeanor was not formal at all.

‘It’s kind of like Calliope.’

It sounds out of the blue, but I felt that way.

Even though they appear emotionless on the outside, they have similar longings on the inside.

I can read the inside because my family and thoughts are connected.

I could see that there was a different inner mind from the fresh appearance.

If you compare thoughts to a tail, her tail wags.

“Yes, Pasimea. Is your occupation an alchemist?”

“If you say alchemist, you sound like an idiot who can only make gold.”

Pasimea answered by holding the ponytail wrapped around her hand to her cheek.

“I seek the truth of the world. This world is made up of elements, and my goal is to pursue, analyze, and establish the composition of these elements. Gold is just one of an infinite combination of elements.”

They say that making gold is only a small part of what you know how to do.

It was a statement of her confidence.

“But, humans love gold the most. You put the ability to make gold the highest, right? That’s why I’m not very good at it, but first of all, being a gold maker is my nickname.”

“There must be many things you can make besides gold.”

“Anything. if that’s what you want.”

Blue-green cat-like eyes smiled.

“gunpowder. I need?”

I rarely looked at her in surprise.

“You want it?”

“I want to, very much.”

Because it’s the best way to bridge the gap between humans and other races.

###

A few days have passed since I returned to Olymus.

The news that Gehard was smoothly conquering northern Wallochia was reported through Griff’s familiar, and the spoils sent to Turan arrived safely, and the fight over the mine was coming to an end.

It was also at that time that an envoy from the representative system arrived.

There are two envoys, the dwarf twins.

【Lv. 90]

It was a face I knew well.

‘The great emperor’s vigilance is very high.’

As you can see from their level, they are close to the strongest of their race.

These are the direct escorts of the Dragon Lord, Ailletrione.

It is said to be an escort, but in reality it was the power of the representative system.

‘The reason why the Daejeon is not simply a forum for discussion is because of these two.’

There is no way that the representative system was created for peace, and even the members have the same idea.

No matter what the members are, the tribe and the nation take precedence.

In addition, each of them has the strength to topple a mountain, so should we set up a place to talk to try to narrow the difference of opinion by breaking down our pride?

There must be a mediator who has no relationship with those who are quarreling and has influence that cannot be ignored, so that negotiations can be done without regret.

These were just such beings.

‘Those guys came to me directly.’

Proof that the representative system is very wary of me.

It was an expression of willingness to use force if necessary.

“Arnim, Ras.”

I called the twins by name.

The twins approaching me stopped at the same time.

His eyes widened for a moment, but he wasn’t too surprised.

‘Because you heard about me.’

What did you hear, the mysterious monkey with a lot of knowledge?

“A valuable guest has arrived. Did Rod send it?”

“…”

The two looked at each other and exchanged opinions with their eyes.

“human. The representative has ordered you to appear.”

Arnim, the eldest, crossed his fingers.

Then the space between the two of us distorted.

The distorted space opened up, revealing the Hall of Representatives.

The dwarf nodded toward the other side.

“Come alone.”

When Calliope and Pasimea followed me, Lars stopped them.

He looked at the two of them arrogantly, letting go of the momentum mixed with mana.

“Is it your will to come alone, or is it the will of the representative system?”

“…”

The dwarf did not answer again.

He just pointed at the gate while licking his lips.

I looked down at the dwarf, who was no taller than my chin.

Disgust was evident in his eyes.

‘Heterogeneous people are all the same.’

Even if he pretended to be noble on the outside, he could tell by looking into his eyes.

To them, humans are monkeys that imitate the conversations of civilized people.

A monkey would hate to dare to sit in the same seat as a civilized man.

Because in my previous life, there was a time when I cut my eyes because our eyes met.

Compared to then, it was recognized now.

‘It’s a dirty world where the only respect is respect for strength.’

I met your eyes straight with a smile on my face.

I didn’t care how much momentum the dwarves were.

‘Calliope, Pasimea.’

The two families took a step forward and burst into momentum.

oh oh oh

The four in this seat had a total level close to 400.

The ground trembled as the magical energy mixed with each other’s momentum collided.

“… Kw.”

The twins groaned.

I bet you didn’t know I was going to

Confusion was evident in his eyes.

He tried to push the momentum of the two members by raising his momentum a beat later, but the tilted weight did not return.

‘Just because the level is similar doesn’t mean the level is similar.’

From noble mtl dot com

I said I knew the guys.

A flower in a greenhouse that was raised by the Dragon Lord.

They had talent and experience, but lacked depth.

Rod is in the back boat, who dares to touch it?

It would be the first time to receive momentum from a strong person of the same class or higher.

“This… Damn it…”

The more you push the opponent, the more you have to be cool.

The twins bit their lips without thinking to suppress their emotions.

For the first time in my life, I was pushed out of momentum,

That the other person is human

The wounds it had inflicted on his pride seemed to boil with passion.

He groaned and put his hand on his waist.

【Lv. 92]

As soon as his hand touched the handle of the sword, his level rose.

The momentum, which had been pushed one-sidedly, regained its balance slightly.

His breathing stabilized and his eyes tightened.

Arnim leaned forward and squeezed the handle.

“Rod will be sad.”

wince

Right before the sword, Arnim stopped moving.

I smiled and looked at the couple swords hanging from the twins’ waists.

“There was something that Rod said while handing it over to you.”

Anxiety flickered in the twins’ eyes.

“’Grab for the cause, swing for the greater good.’”

At that moment, the twins trembled as if struck by lightning.

“I didn’t know I would be such a big enemy. Would you like to draw?”

Arnim lost his skin color and bit his bluish lips.

A cold sweat formed on his forehead and ran down his cheek to the ground from his chin.

As the boiling emotions stopped for a while, reason stood up.

Lars glanced at Arnim and shook his head.

“Quit…”

With a face wet with humiliation, he slowly withdrew his hand from the sword.

The momentum and magic that covered the surroundings disappeared.

“Ask again. Did Rod tell me to come alone?”

“…”

The twins avoided answering.

Of course, he couldn’t be so timid.

As I passed Arnim, I tapped him on the shoulder.

Crunchy, the sound of biting teeth.

I snorted and ignored it.

I’m not afraid of a dog with a wagging tail.

###

ugh—

After passing the gate, I heard tinnitus ringing in my ears.

And the vision seemed to be dark, but it brightened.

What appeared in the brightened field of view was the great hall of the Great Representative.

It was the same place as when we arrived along Laeragon.

“I was waiting.”

The Lizardman who came to meet him bowed deeply.

Of course, it wasn’t for me, it was for the dwarves.

He didn’t even look at me and flicked his tongue.

“Come this way.”

The atmosphere has changed for the second visit in this life.

It felt like it was coldly empty in a large space.

Now it was full of people as if it were a coronation ceremony.

The road leading to the conference hall was covered with a red carpet, and armed soldiers stood on both sides with solemn expressions in their robes.

Ahead of me and behind me were several tribes entering the conference hall, and I heard gentle music in my ears.

‘If it’s a formal convocation, this is normal.’

The previous agenda convened by Laeragon was an urgent agenda.

It was a rushed gathering, so there was no time to prepare or do anything.

Rather, it is surprising that the ambassadors gathered so quickly.

There were many cases where the representative system formally submitted an agenda and convened it once a year, and considering its status, this level of vanity was natural.

kiik—

When the door to the conference room opened, a warm breeze blew.

As I said before, the conference hall resembles an opera house.

The reason for the resemblance is obvious, since it was actually used as an opera house.

I just put the head table on the platform that should have been the stage.

‘They filled the seats.’

Except when it is used as an opera house, only ambassadors and attendants are not allowed to enter, but today, as an exception, the audience was full.

‘Are you going to pressure me?’

Recalling the experience of the previous episode, I raised the corners of my mouth.

The pressure in the last call failed, so the number was increased.

Audience seats placed in a semicircle facing the platform, one head table and seven seats on the platform facing the audience…

‘One more increased.’

There were eight seats.

Seven seats were full, and one was empty.

As I entered the meeting room, the music suddenly stopped.

“…”

Everyone in the hall looked at me.

From those at the head table to those in the audience.

I stopped and looked over the table.

‘The ambassador has changed.’

The lines of Orcs, Goblins, Nagas, and Lizardmen have been changed.

Considering that an ambassador is a position close to a tenured position, this is unusual.

It’s not even one, it’s because the power supply has been cut off.

‘It must be because of me.’

It was to ask for responsibility for taking away the land from monkeys and the like.

【Lv. 87]

【Lv. 78]

【Lv. 83]

【Lv. 81]

The level of the ambassadors increased by about 10 or 20.

One by one, those approaching Ugdash.

Just as the audience was full, the ambassador also seemed intent on increasing the level of pressure by raising the level.

‘Do dwarves and dwarves not attend?’

【Lv. 89]

【Lv. 88]

On the other hand, the ranks of elves and dwarves were slightly lower than before.

It was because a plenipotentiary had been seated instead of Laeragon and Gotava.

In the first place, the two attended impromptu, not official ambassadors.

In principle, it was right for the ambassador to be in the same position as now.

Even if there were not two, the rank of the ambassador was still overwhelming.

【Lv. 96]

My eyes scanned them and stopped at the old dog.

An older dog sleeping on a seat that is flush with the head table.

As the guy covered with a blanket on a cushion was sleeping making a snoring noise, Arnim and Lars went behind him and gently shook him.

I just woke up and opened my heavy eyelids when bright yellow snake-like eyes met mine.

“…”

I gave a slight nod of my head diagonally and sat in the remaining seat.

Calliope and Pasimea were seated in the front row of the audience.

“We will hold a meeting.”

A lizard led to the venue stood between the head table and the audience.

He opened the scroll in his hand and read it with a raised voice.

“This agenda is to punish the humans for invading the Nehrup plains, killing Ugdash and his hordes of the Ironmist tribe, and instigating them to attack the human realm and occupy its lands.”

‘It’s a punishment.’

It is said that I will not ask whether it is a sin or not.

It has been decided that my actions are sins, and that I will set the level of punishment.

‘It’s fun.’

I laughed inwardly at the obvious agenda.

It was also clear who initiated the agenda.

Because there was someone who looked at me fiercely.

‘Vlad, the lord of the Vampire Empire Mycenae. You mosquito guy.’

And he was the first to speak.

“An excuse?”

I answered as I took out a cigarette from the cigarette pack.

“does not exist.”
