The World: creating the peace

Chapter 15 [Action plan. Part 2]



Calm madman: And you're pretty fast.

???: Oh, S. Oh! You scared me with your appearance, I'm sorry for the rudeness. My husband told me about you. And who is this next to you?

Calm madman: Can I get your name first?

???: Oh, yes, of course. My name is Lisenra.

Calm Madman: A beautiful name. This is my servant Fab and he is a demon.

Lisenra: Oh, and who are the demons?

Calm madman: How do I see your memory lapses?

Lisenra: Yes, I have failures.

Calm madman: Ahem. It's a long time, let your husband tell you. Can you show us the way to the meeting, please?

Lysandra: Yes, let's go.

"Lisenra began her journey to the gathering of the elder and all the craftsmen of the kingdom, the Calm Madman and Fab calmly followed her."

--- At this time---

Faceless: Oh, we're next.

Chlori: Oh, we're next.

Rostolia: Yes, I see.

???: Next one, please.

Faceless: Hello.

Chlori: Hello.

???: Who are you and why have you come?

Faceless: We came for friends. We need to pick them up on my brother's instructions.

Chlorine: We came for friends. We need to pick them up on my brother's instructions.

???: Lady, who is your brother?

Chlorine: That's not my brother.

???: But you just said that yourself, didn't you?

Chlori: That's it...

Rostolya: This is his brother.

"Rostolia, standing behind, put a bunch on the Faceless One's head."

???: Excuse me, but who are you?

Rostolia: I am an A-class demon, the current loyal subject of the Faceless One, in the past of Arfolia.

???: Guards! There is a high-class Demon on the territory of the city! Call the adventurers!

???: Attention, everyone! Everyone who is standing in line, please leave the gate area!

"There was a clink of armor outside the gate. The guards burst into the inspection room and at the same moment the gates began to open, behind which stood about 20 armed men, including adventurers."

???: Lay down your weapons and take off your mask! We're taking you into custody! For not following orders, we will be forced to use weapons and send you to execution or prison, depending on the court's decision!

Faceless: Listen, we will not harm either the residents or the city. Please let us in and we will leave in about an hour.

Chlori: Listen, we will not harm either the residents or the city. Please let us in and we will leave in about an hour.

???: Weapons ready! Take him into custody!

"At the same moment, Faceless and Rostolia got ready for battle. Rostolia extended her claws on her feathery wings and took out her one-handed swords. Faceless did not want to kill people with the help of manych, so he did not even try to take off his mask, but was ready to fight with his fists and his monstrous strength. All the armed wars began to attack the trinity, the temporary travelers. Faceless and Rostolya stood up so that Chlori was under their protection. The first one who was attacked, this Faceless One, fought back. He hit the air and the entire guard flew back with the help of a shock wave and an air current. Rostolia held back 2 adventurers who looked at her beautiful body. Faceless didn't do anything unusual. He approached both adventurers, raised his hands and made a 'snap' to both. Thus, these two were lying unconscious, and the rest of the guards had just started to get up."

Rostolia: Come on, put your hand down. Chlori is in shock, she won't be able to speak.

"The faceless One put his hand on Rostolia's shoulder."

Faceless: We ask you, once again, to skip and everything will be peaceful. Or ask questions, we will answer everything if you do not trust us.

Rostolia: We ask you, once again, to skip and everything will be peaceful. Or ask questions, we will answer everything if you do not trust us.

???: Why listen to you if you have a demon on your side!

Rostolia: I am not on their side, but only serve them and obey their orders, I am no longer capable of.

???: How can you prove it?

Rostolia: Did we kill at least one person along the way or at least one guard? That's right - no.

???: Okay, let's do the interrogation. Guards, stand down! Arrange an interrogation!

Guards: We obey!

One of the adventurers: This is not right. We have to kill them!

???: No way! They left quickly!

One of the adventurers: Okay...

"The guards left the gate as soon as the entrance was closed behind them. The trio of temporary travelers entered the interrogation room and waited for the detective and the commander of the guard."

--- At this moment---

Shobf: I suggest leveling the area for fencing.

Kobsh: I agree. Shall we do this?

Shobf: Yes, I think so.

Rizl: Let's get to work.

"The three demons that used to conquer territories were now sitting and pulling up the grass. They were throwing earth under the territory of the tree."

--- At this time---

Lisenra: Here we are. A meeting is taking place in this large and oval sphere.

Calm madman: Thank you. Will you be waiting? It's just that a receiver is waiting for us at your house, you can stay with it for now.

Lisenra: Yes, I think I'll go to him.

"With this decision, Lisenra went back to her house, and the Calm Madman and Fab approached the Palace of Craftsmen."

Guard: Who are you?

Calm madman: First of all, can we come in?

The guard: It depends who you are and why.

The calm madman: I am an old acquaintance of the elder of the kingdom. We need to talk to him, but it so happened that we arrived during the meeting. This is a good moment, because we need different craftsmen.

Guard: Introduce yourself.

The calm madman: I am a calm madman.

Fab: I am Fab, the servant of a Calm Madman.

Guard: All right, come on in.

"Fab and the Calm Madman entered the hall. There were about 30 dwarves in the hall."

???: No! This is a bad idea! We don't have that much territory!

???: Calm down, he hasn't fully told you yet.

???: No! I'm not going to take the case of someone who doesn't calculate the budget, territory and free hands.

Bermogrum: Gentlemen, I understand you perfectly, but a proposal is a proposal. Who agrees with the decision to reject the offer?

"There was silence in the hall. What's on the upper floors, what's on the lower ones. Everyone was judging the decisions of the dwarf who stood in the middle of the hall."

Bermogrum: Ground floor, verdict?

"The first floor. Out of 14 people, 8 dwarves understood the hands."

Bermogrum: Second floor, verdict?

"The second floor. Of the 14 people, 9 raised their hands."

Bermogrum: A total of 17 votes out of 28. An offer to bow out.

Calm madman: Dear Bermogrum, may I speak?

Bermogrum: Who is it?

Calm madman: Didn't you recognize an old acquaintance?

"The calm madman entered the center of the hall, followed by Fab."

Calm madman: And so will you find out?

Bermogrum: Yes, I will find out. Gentlemen, this is the same son of the progenitor, a calm madman.

???: He is! Is that him!? Do you think I should believe him?!

Bermogrum: Quiet! This is disrespectful! Speak.

Calm madman: Gentlemen. I arrived with good and bad news. The good news is, your Faceless defender is now harmless. At least until the barrier is completely broken. The bad news is, the place where he was imprisoned grew a tree with divine fruits. I think the tree is completely of the divine type. It works almost the same way as under Adam and Eve. I'm asking for your help. We need craftsmen, or almost craftsmen, who are engaged in design, forging, construction, hardening, an expert in improving materials and specialists in materials.

Bermogrum: Everyone heard your words. Then I come to a verdict without a vote, this is the final decision and cannot be changed. I entrust to the long work of Holermir, that a specialist in the design of various structures, Grelemant, that a specialist in any forging, Gritun, that a specialist in the construction of any buildings, Kremidin, that a specialist in any hardening, Grudonor, that a specialist in improving materials and a specialist in materials of any quality and purpose - Tormilog. I ask the masters to put these hardworking dwarves to work.

Calm Madman: As a bonus, the Cursed Blacksmith will arrive to us soon, so this will be a good experience for any dwarf.

Bermogrum: And so, after the meeting, I ask everyone to come to the exit with the students who will work for the Calm Madman.

"There was silence in the hall. From the faces of those present, it could be understood that many were unhappy with the elder's behavior and the presence of a stranger who was not trusted."

Calm madman: Thank you very much, from all our brothers. Sorry to interrupt the meeting. I'm leaving and I'll be at the exit.

"After that, the Calm Madman and Fab left the throne room."

Calm madman: Once again, thank you.

Guard: You're welcome.

--- At this time---

One of the goblin scouts: Mr. Kobsh, there is a carriage in the forest!

"Very busy pulling grass, Kobsh turned around and his face showed displeasure, as he was distracted from a very interesting task."

Cobsh: Where? Come on, show me. Shobf, you stay here and give me your ear, but not yours.

"Shobf gave Kobsh the ear of the royal bat. After which, Kobsh ran after the goblin scout."

One of the goblin scouts: That's the carriage.

Kobsh: I see it. You sit here and I'll talk.

"Kobsh took off and falling down onto the road along which the carriage was traveling, carefully spread his arms and slowly, slightly, lifted his tail. Landing on the road, he bowed with his right hand on his chest. The carriage stopped and a warrior in armor got out."

A warrior in armor: Who are you? What do you want?

"Kobsh got up and stood with straight arms when his left leg, which was supporting at that moment, stood in front of his right, but only 20 centimeters."

Kobsh: I came to greet you and find out the reason for your trip.

Warrior in armor: Okay, we're going to the royal city. Does it suit you?

Kobsh: Quite, but can I ask you for a favor?

Warrior in armor: It depends on what kind of service.

Kobsh: It's okay, I need to inform my master about your appearance on this territory, may I?

Warrior in armor: Come on.

"Kobsh took out the ear of a royal bat from a small bag on his lower back. He bent the edge of his ear and pressed the tip to his mouth."

Cobsh: Fab! Faab! I need a Calm madman!

Fab: I can hear everything, don't scream. Now.

"Fab passed the ear to the Calm Madman."

Calm madman: I'm listening.

Kobsh: A carriage was passing near the territory of the tree, in the forest. I stopped them, what should I do next?

Calm madman: For starters, where are they going?

Kobsh: To the royal city.

Calm madman: Well, then, find out what kind of person is going to the royal city.

Kobsh: Man, do you hear?

Warrior in armor: Yes, what?

Kobsh: Who's going to the royal city?

The Warrior in Armor: A Royal Secret.

Kobsh: Sir, it's a royal secret.

Calm madman: Then you have to find out for yourself, without talking, personally who is going, do you understand?

Kobsh: I got it, now.

"Kobsh, using a shadow step that was not fully mastered, rushed to the carriage. Once at the carriage, he knocked on the window."

Armored Warrior: Step back or I'll use force!

Kobsh: It won't be a big deal, since you don't want to answer, I'll ask you personally. Don't be offended.

"A curtain was pulled back in the carriage and a woman's face appeared."

Cobsh: Lady, I'm sorry to bother you, may I ask your name and why are you going to the royal city?

???: Yes, my name is Soy, I am a princess.

Kobsh: Okay, thanks.

"Kobsh, put his ear to his mouth again."

Kobsh: Sir, she is a princess and her name is Soy.

Calm madman: Okay, then pass it verbatim. Lady Soy, may we ask you to tell your father that he will be the first person my lord will come to.

Kobsh: Lady Soy, may we ask you to tell your father that he will be the first person my lord will come to?

Soy: Well, who is this gentleman?

Kobsh: The faceless one is my real master, and the Calm madman is temporary. Therefore, I think that both will come. There will also be a translator with the Faceless One.

Soy: Okay, I'll tell you.

Kobsh: Calm madman, is that it?

Calm madman: No, warn me that no one can enter this territory.

Kobsh: Yes, goodbye.

"Kobsh put the bat's ear back in her purse."

Cobsh: My lady, also, tell your father to give the order not to approach the territory of this forest and the field that is in the forest. It is not safe at the moment, we are dealing with its security. Therefore, for sure, for 2 years the entrance is very dangerous.

Soy: Yes, well, I will.

Kobsh: Then, see you soon. And good day to you, Warrior.

Warrior in armor: Hmm. Bye, demon.

"Kobsh flew up and went to level the territory, and at that time a warrior in armor entered the map."

Armored warrior: Lady, do you even know that it was a demon?

Soy: Is that true, Chas?

Chas: Yes, that's exactly it. This is a demon and not a weak class. I certainly wouldn't be able to protect you from him.

Soy: So you need to exercise more.

Chas: Yes, madam, if it were that easy...

--- At this time---

???: Please. Detective and commander, these are the suspects.

Detective: So, who hired you or gave you the order?

Faceless: You won't believe it, but no one. We were instructed and decided to enter through the main gate. We just need to pick up our friends.

Chlori: You won't believe it, but no one. We were instructed and decided to enter through the main gate. We just need to pick up our friends.

Detective: Who gave you the instructions?

"Rostolia pointed her hand at the Faceless One."

Rostolia: His brother.

DETECTIVE: Yes? And why is he silent?

Rostolia: He can't speak. That's what this girl is sitting here for. She voices his thoughts. I'm his loyal subject.

Detective: Let's say... Then why does he need a mask? Is he hiding from the law?

Rostolia: No way. The mask is needed to absorb mana, which can kill everyone here. Honestly, I can't know about the law. I haven't spent much time with him. Although, it seems, he didn't do anything, because he got out into the world himself, just as recently as he met me.

Detective: I don't really believe it. Where did he get out of? From prison, huh!?

Rostolia: He was locked in a cave and spent 10 years there. I advise you, for your own safety, do not take off your mask. There's no face under it anyway.

Detective: So, since you insist that he should wear a mask, then let's do an experiment. Commander, do we have a closed room?

Commander: Yes, there is.

Detective: And there are prisoners who go to the death penalty.

Commander: Unfortunately, there is.

Detective: Then we'll be watching from afar, behind the glass. And the suicide bomber will have to take off his mask. So we can check your words, okay?

Faceless: For your confidence, I ask you not to take the suicide bomber out of the room and tie my hands.

Chlori: For your confidence, I ask you not to take the suicide bomber out of the room and tie my hands.

Detective: So you agree. Commander, do everything as it was said in the dialogue.

"After these words, the commander opened the door and left the room."

Rostolia: Can we have some food, for two? We could have eaten anyway, but you delayed us..

Detective: All right. Soldier, come here.

???: Yes, what do you want?

Detective: Bring food for two, and water.

???: Yes, everything will be fine soon.

"The soldier left the room, closing the door."

Detective: Let's continue with the polls. What are all your names?

Rostolia: My name is Rostolia, this is Chlori, and this is our Mr. Faceless.

Detective: It's a nickname, and why was it given to him?

Rostolya: It's not a nickname, it's a nickname. He has no name from birth.

Detective: Let's say, then, that you have a connection with the gentleman and this lady. They're not demons, are they?

Rostolia: No, they are not demons. Chlori is an ordinary person without any experimental enhancements or modifications. Faceless is the son of the progenitor. It has no limitations in all aspects.

Detective: How is it in all of them? For example, where does he have no restrictions?

Alcohol growth: In life expectancy, mana volume, and concentration. At the moment, his strength is not inferior to the strongest military of your kingdom. And all because he has been learning to control mana for 10 years, for the sake of saving your universe. Therefore, you should be grateful to him.

Detective: Hmm... It's kind of suspicious. Let's check it out. Faceless, spread those rods in that little window.

"The faceless one got up from his chair, walked around the table and went to the window, which was just above his head. He took hold of the thick, iron, non-hollow rods and began to pull on himself. In less than a second, two rods appeared in his hands, which were bent in the place where he was holding."

Detective: What? How did you do that? It's some kind of trick, isn't it?

"The faceless one approached Rostolya."

Faceless: You can chop me up, but you can't kill me, and you won't break my bones.

Rostolya: You can chop me up for minced meat, but you can't kill me, and you won't break my bones.

Detective: I don't believe it!

Rostolia: Let's check it out!

Detective: Well, if you wish. One of the guards, come into the room!

???: Did something happen?

Detective: Just come in.

???: I'm listening.

"??? He entered the room and closed the door."

Detective: Cut off everything that is adjacent to his body.

???: What!? Why?! Are you crazy?

Detective: No, we have an experiment with his consent.

???: OK, now

"??? He took out a two-handed sword from behind his back and swung it at his hand. The sword stopped. He was driven to the bone, but he stopped."

???: What?

Detective: Spin it in a circle.

"??? He began to spiral, but there was no longer a cut at the site of the impact. The wound healed immediately."

Detective: Soldier, leave it. Okay, guys, I believe you, but about mana, we need to check. Soldier, you are free.

Soldier: I'm listening!

"The soldier left the room."

Soldier: I brought food, as requested. Why is there blood on the floor? Who injured whom?

"With these words, the soldier drew his white sword from its scabbard and was ready to fight, standing in a fighting stance."

Detective: Nobody. We were conducting an experiment.

Soldier: Are you sure?

Detective: Do you see any wounds here?

Soldier: Understood. Then, here's the food, sorry for crumpling the bread under my arm.

Rostolia: It's okay. Dear boy, don't you want to move under my command? You're pretty smart.

Soldier: Detective, what does she want?

Detective: After talking, I still don't fully understand the thoughts of this demon. Or rather, she does not voice them, but only answers questions, no more.

Chlori: Rosti, you don't want to do anything wrong, do you?

Rostolia: Of course not, it's just like I said.

Soldier: Can I agree?

Detective: Check with the commander, I'm not your boss.

Soldier: That's right, then we'll wait, but in the meantime, enjoy your meal!

Chlori: Thank you!

Rostolia: Fpafibo.

--- At this time---

Bermogrum: A calm madman, these are the very craftsmen. All of them will serve you. Please do not offend or overload above the norm.

Calm madman: Everyone who will be with me. In chorus, thank your mentors for their good work and a wonderful start to your knowledge. Be grateful to them for the rest of your life!

Everyone, dwarves, who leave with a Calm madman: Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We will remember your unpaid work for the rest of our lives!

"All the mentors burst into tears."

???: You're welcome.

Calm madman: Okay, then we're off.

"The whole horde came out of the royal doors."

Calm madman: Can you move us?

Fab: Well, I can do it. But it will take longer.

Calm madman: It will go. We flew.

"Fab took a Calm Madman in his claws and held two dwarves in his hands. The calm madman held the others."
