933 Meeting My Weapon Development Team
Yet it wasn’t too late, it was never too late for anyone to return to his original path and start over.
As she guided me back then to my current path, it was my time to repay her debt and guide her back to her rightful path.
Hopefully she’d get what I said, and hopefully she’d make the right choice here.
I walked towards the palace and stopped just on the stairs leading inside. Isac took care of every single detail here.
There were two huge statues appearing on the side of the stairs. And on the sides of the opened doors, there stood a group of servants wearing white and black uniforms, waiting in respect for me.
“Welcome lord,” as I walked in the middle path, they bowed for ninety degrees and welcomed me in a loud tone.
I nodded and went inside. The palace was decorated with many wooden works and precious ores that made me recall the inside of the old man’s mansion.
Yet it was on such a bigger scale, and there were also few paintings on the walls showing me in various battles and situations.
The doors opened at a wide and spacious hall that ended up with a huge wall showing a mural. It described the last epic war against Hectors, making me believe Isac ordered it recently.
The wall stretched for the entire height of this palace, ending up with a dome shaped ceiling with such a marvellous looking circular opening, covered with sparkling and semi-translucent glass like thin ores.
And there was a huge seat in front of this wall, with two huge red and golden curtains just behind the throne.
I stopped in front of this throne while watching the many rows of smallest wooden seats in front of it.
It looked like a throne hall, suitable for a true king indeed.
“Does lord want to eat or drink something?”
As I sat on the throne, overlooking the entire hall and a small part of the garden outside through the opened doors, one of the servants asked in deep respect.
“No thanks, I’m waiting for guests to arrive.”
“We will leave someone to welcome them, lord,” she bowed again as everyone else.
‘Isac… This girl didn’t miss to find such beauties to serve me… But did she think I was this lustful king or what?’
I watched the group of beauties walk away and disperse around the huge palace. Two stood on my side, seemingly waiting for any orders of mine.
They were even more beautiful than Hilary, much hotter than Angelica, and had such demeanour like Karoline.
They were a nice touch indeed for mighty kings. But for me, this wasn’t something I’d look at.
Right now I am still burdened with the unexpected meeting outside. I didn’t like that Leo. he turned out to be someone I despised.
It was a regret that such a pure hearted girl with such potential would end up going down thanks to her heart’s choice… Sigh!
“Lord… There is a large group of people standing at the entrance of the palace.”
And just in half an hour, I got the notification from one of the short skirt girls serving me in this palace.
“Let them in,” I knew they were those MIT guys. But why would they come in such large numbers?
But just as the group I was waiting for appeared, I recognised two familiar faces.
During the past visits to the MIT workers, war was going on all over the capital and regions near it.
I didn’t have time to meet with everyone just like I was doing right now.
Seeing Wolf and Moore made me recall the first time I met these two. They didn’t come alone and were tagged along with other big military companies.
However the people of the other companies moved away and didn’t like my way of handling things here. As for these two, they brought over their brilliant minds as well as their big guns.
I still recalled how Wolf brought over that damn useless stealth bombers, feeling much pride at doing this.
Recalling these military companies made me wonder about something. They were supposed to be located inside my kingdom territory. But I didn’t get any clue about them for a long time, even to the point of totally forgetting about their presence.
What happened to them? Did they die? Or something else?
“Lord,” as the group led by the two MIT youths, Wolf, Moore, and an old looking man with spikes instead of his eyebrows. If I recall correctly, he was called old Gan or something.
He was the leader of the talents brought over to help MIT guys. They created a scene before, trying to enforce their races’ tech over mine.
“Welcome all,” I said in greeting while they stopped at the seats and were looking at me in deep respect and slight fear.
Since the last time we met, I established a grand kingdom and became a mighty king. I crushed one of the big three races in the universe, declaring my ability to lead them over towards glorious times.
And it seemed stories about what happened at the Hector continent spread over to their ears.
“Long time no see,” I moved my eyes in between Wolf and Moore. The two smiled while Wolf couldn’t control himself like usual.
“Lord, it was a long time indeed. However many things happened, good and bad.”
“Good things must be related to your research, right?” I expected them to bring me good news. Yet he did mention bad news.
What possibly could have happened at their work to be considered bad news?
“Yes, lord,” Moore stepped in, “we made a breakthrough and managed to get great results.”
“Then… What about this bad news?” I focused my eyes over Wolf and that dude didn’t hold himself as expected.
“Those bastards, the ones who came from other military companies, the ones who came with us and left soon.”
My eyes flashed in the cold light when I heard what he said. I was just wondering about their fate, and here he was mentioning them.
“What happened to them?”
