The World: creating the peace

Chlori: Where are we? What happened yesterday?

Faceless: We're in a restaurant. You got drunk yesterday. Don't you remember?

Chlorine: Nope...

"The Faceless one was showing Chlori's memories."

Faceless: You took me to the bar, saying that there were delicious snacks there. At first, you ate crab, then squid, but you didn't have enough and you decided to try to drink. It all started with a glass of wine, then two more, then two more. Those two mugs were not the last, after ordering 5 more mugs, I took another octopus, and after drinking 5 mugs and eating an octopus, you fell asleep. I took you to a table so as not to disturb the bartender. Did you remember?

Chlori: I remember only crab, squid and a mug of wine... I'm sorry, please. It won't happen again.

Faceless: I hope so.

Chlori: Where are we going now?

Faceless: We have time for you to pack up and we will reach the gathering place.

Chlori: I get it. Then I went to get ready.

"Chlori went to the bathroom. The faceless one remained sitting and waiting."

--- At this time---

Chief Physician: What is the prince's condition?

???: Just don't swear. We did everything as you asked, but the Holy Virgin never arrived.

The chief doctor: There's nothing to scold you for. What did they tell you?

???: They said she was...

???: I'm here! Where is the prince!

Chief Physician: Holy Virgin, finally... Cure the prince faster, here he is.

"The head doctor took a step back and turned around, pointing at the room with the prince."

Holy Virgin: Good. Everyone, get away from him, I'm starting treatment.

"The Holy Virgin went to the prince's room, pulled back the curtain and saw the prince completely bandaged. A bright yellow light appeared around virgo. It illuminated the entire room. No one understood what she said or did, but after the light, the Holy Virgin began to leave."

Chief Physician: Condition?

The Holy Virgin: He's sleeping.

The chief physician: Understood. Have a nice day.

Holy Virgin: Thank you, and don't overdo it.

Chief Physician: Absolutely.

"The holy Virgin has left the room."

???: What should we do now?

The head doctor: You can leave, but I have to stay.

???: We are listening.

"All 7 people left the room."

The chief physician: * Who is going to come, what is such promptness? Okay, that's not really important. Most importantly, who did this to the prince?..*

--- At this time---

Faceless: Chlori, we have to go.

Chlori: If that's the case, then let's go. What are we standing for?

Faceless: Lead me.

"Chlori left the bar and walked towards the palace, leading the Faceless One who was holding onto her shoulder."

--- At this time---

Gordon V.: How is the prince's treatment going?

???: On the instructions of the head doctor, we left the room, but I think he is in good condition. He's just sleeping.

Gordon V.: I see. Mofl, the guests are coming soon. Meet them and escort them to the prince's room.

Mofl: I'm listening.

"Mofl went to the exit."

Gordon V.: Chas, try to find out what their powers are without threatening.

Ches: I'm listening.

Gordon V.: My daughter, I think we should go to your brother's room already.

Soy V.: Of course, Father.

"Soy, Gordon V. left the throne room and went to the royal hospital. Chas headed for the gate to the palace."

--- A short time later---

Mofl, Ches: Welcome!

Calm madman: Don't shout like that, I can hear it anyway. Greetings to you too, gentlemen. I think that Faceless and Chlori will linger. I suggest that I go to the prince with you already.

Chas: With me?

Calm madman: Yes, you didn't just come here. I am partially familiar with Mofl, but not with you. So you're here for a reason.

Ches: You guessed it. Then let's walk along the road and talk to you.

The calm madman: That's another matter. Come on.

"Chas and the Calm Madman entered the palace grounds and, turning right, headed towards the royal Hospital."

Calm madman: And what did you want?

Ches: I have a mission from the king. What is your military strength?

Calm madman: Our strength is not perfect yet, but it is already powerful. Think about it, if, just for now, there are 2 sons of the progenitor in the empire, several A-class demons and an S-class demon. What is the strength of the empire?

Ches: I think it already surpasses our army. Then, since you have such a small army, who will you assign to protect us?

Calm madman: A pretty simple question and a simple answer. I don't know. Although I know a lot about the 7 universes, I cannot know the Emperor's decision. After all, I know the past, not the future.

Ches: So you need to ask the Faceless One?

Calm madman: That's right, there's no one else. Of course, it is possible that he will not be engaged in the army, but for example Rostolia, but we do not know this either.

Chas: And what are your plans for the empire now? It seems to be just being built for you.

Calm madman: It's pretty simple. In exchange, I received several people who will help build.

Chas: I see. No more problems with the tree?

Calm madman: I don't know that either. I was not on the territory of the fortress yesterday, and the means of communication is useless now.

Chas: Why is that?

Calm Madman: The demon I can communicate with is far away from there, as he is looking for materials. About the army...

Chas: Yes, what?

Calm madman: Okay, I'll tell everyone right away.

Chas: Hmm, good.

"So they continued on their way."

--- At this time---

Chlori: Faceless, we have arrived.

"Mofl bowed."

Mofl: Greetings, Emperor.

Faceless>Chlorine: And I greet you, Mofl. How are you doing?

Mofl: Everything is complicated, due to your arrival, we have a lot more paperwork to do.

Faceless>Chlori: I see.

Faceless: Chlori, I'll walk with Mofl, and you ask him if you can take a walk in the garden.

Chlori: Good. Mofl, can I take a walk in the garden while you're with Faceless?

Mofl: Yes, you can, but your presence at the Royal Hospital is mandatory.

Chlori: Okay, I'll follow behind you, enjoying the garden.

Mofl: Then, Faceless, let's go through.

"Mofl, opened the gates on the palace grounds and held them with an invitation gesture. The Faceless one entered, followed by the others. The faceless one immediately put his hand on Mofl's shoulder."

Mofl: A question right away. Perhaps Chas asked the same question to a Calm Madman, but who will be assigned to protect our palace?

Faceless: I haven't thought about it yet. We will inform you later, after the announcement to all cities.

Mofl: Good. Then, the next question. How much can I trust you?

Faceless: Let's wait and see. In 5 years, we will have another brother of mine.

Mofl: And why exactly 5 years?

Faceless: A Calm Madman has 5 years to recharge the interuniverse portal. I have an idea that moving my brother would take not 10 years, but 5.

Mofl: And what do you want to do?

Faceless: I had an idea last night. And I want to try it out.

Mofl: So, what an idea, you intrigue me.

Faceless: Come on, this will be our secret, until some time.

Mofl: Good.

Faceless: Since I have no personal limitations, then maybe I can copy the Calm Madman technique from the mana vessel.

Mofl: But how do you want to do it?

Faceless: How is that? Directly, hold onto his vessel and read the mana streams when he activates the technique. Copy it and once at your brother's, create a portal there.

Mofl: I see. He's immortal and he's not afraid of it... Okay, I'll keep it a secret for 5 years. Will it suit you?

Faceless: Quite.

Mofl: We're already at the hospital. Chlori, let's hurry up.

Chlori: Yeah.

--- Some time later---

Proud V.: And so. Greetings to all new arrivals at the appointed meeting place. In this room lies Vermishval, my son and the prince of the kingdom. Recently, he was attacked by an Orc and almost killed. We could barely keep him alive. Therefore, I suggest we let him sleep and let us discuss all the issues here without disturbing him. Will it suit everyone?

Calm madman: Brother, is your decision?

Faceless>Chlori: Quite.

Calm madman: Then I'll start. I've given some information to Chas about the army, Gordon, but I'll continue. I think that our army should increase, so I decided to go on a trip for 5 years. After that, return and go with the Faceless One to our brother for a new artifact for the Faceless One.

Gordon V.: And what kind of trip is this?

Calm madman: So far, it's a secret. I don't want to reveal all the cards to my brother. Let him see it later.

Faceless>Chlori: Well, you'll find out something in 5 years.

The calm madman: Intrigued. Okay, Chas wanted to ask me, but I couldn't answer. Faceless, who will be assigned to protect this kingdom?

Faceless>Chlorine: It will be me.

Gordon V.: How are you? For the emperor to be the protection of another kingdom?

Faceless>Chlorine: Within 5 years, I will have nothing to do, and our army is not big enough to distract anyone from business.

Gordon V.: That's reasonable. The question is, how soon will you finish building the fortress?

Faceless>Chlori: I've hired workers. They will get to work soon. As soon as the protection from the tree is completed, construction will begin immediately.

The calm madman: I also traded some of our dwarves for good workers. By the way, about this. Gordon Vermischwal, here is the non-legalization agreement. It also indicates the non-touchability on the part of the kingdom and the royal army.

Gordon V.: What is it about?

The calm madman: I signed a contract with a black market store on certain conditions, they are specified in the contract. Therefore, this contract is for you, and the other one will be for them.

Gordon V.: We have to legalize everything, don't we?

Calm madman: This is my personal decision. Don't we need information from the underground market?

Gordon V.: Well, I see what you're getting at. When will you arrive to defend our kingdom?

Faceless>Chlori: After signing the contract, we will discuss some points with the people from the army and I will come. Also, I would like to learn magic.

Gordon V.: All right...

Calm Madman: What kind of magic? We have not limited your abilities! You can't know her at this level of limitations!

Gordon V.: Then I can suggest joining the adventurers guild. There you can recruit people and learn the basics of magic. Do you agree?

Faceless>Chlori: I agree.

Gordon V.: I don't have any more questions, do you?

Calm madman: None.

Gordon V.: In that case, let's go to the prince.

"Mofl opened the door to the room with the prince's room. Everyone's in."

Gordon V.: Greetings, condition?

Chief Medical Officer: Stable. Sleeping.

Gordon V.: Are we going to wake him up?

Chief Medical Officer: Yes.

"Gordon V. approached his son."

Gordon V.: My son, Vanderfein. Wake up. We have guests and an urgent matter.

"Vanderfein just woke up a little bit, started answering in a whisper."

Vanderfein V.: Father, what is it?

Gordon V.: Wake up quickly, but take your time, you've been badly injured recently.

Vanderfein V.: And! Where!? Where am I?! Where is the witch?! Who is this?! Are these her messengers?!

Gordon V.: Be more respectful. These are our guests. I'll explain the whole situation later, and you have to sign two contracts, as well as tell me what happened on your trip.

Vanderfein V.: Yes, Father. Where's the pen?

Gordon V.: We sign in blood.

Calm Madman: Hello, I am a Calm madman. Here are the contracts. Give me your hand, I'll make a neat wound.

"The calm madman held out two contracts and Vanderfein, who put them on his feet and stood up. Vanderfein V. offered his hand to the Calm Madman. The calm madman took the prince's hand and with his fingernail made a small wound on the tip of his finger, so that the blood did not drip, but accumulated on the meta of the wound."

Calm madman: Please sign in an empty place, where your family's signature is.

"Vanderfein V. signed and handed the contracts back to the Calm Madman. A calm madman gave away a non-legalization agreement and an alliance agreement."

Gordon V.: Thank you. Mofl, take it to the bureau and arrange with other cities.

Mofl: I'm listening.

"Mofl took the contracts and left the room."

Gordon V.: My son, now tell me about your sufferings in the forest.

Vanderfein V.: Everything happened abruptly and unexpectedly. We went into the forest of vines. Fighting with the vines, we lost much more than half of the troops. When we wanted to move back, it turned out that the senior magician was not alive. The witch of the forest of vines killed him and made him her doll. I was only able to get out alone, as she killed the entire army and gave me a chance to survive, opened a wall of vines. Running to the kingdom, I was attacked by an ancient orc. I was able to fight back, but that's it. With the second blow, he broke my sword and hit me in the ribs. I began to suffocate and at that time I received a severe blow to the head and passed out. I don't know anything else.

Gordon V.: I see.

Faceless>Chlori: Vanderfein V., I am Faceless and I am the emperor. Could I ask you to provide more information about the witch and the orc. I have a strong desire to get to know them.

The calm madman: Are you sure you won't destroy the forest?

Faceless>Chlori: I'm more than sure.

Gordon V.: Son, please inform him.
