Chapter 229: chapter 229- Threat



After they finished eating, they went to visit other places, such as clothing stores, food stalls, jewelry stores, food stalls... food stalls and finally Farak’s workshop.

"My King, It’s there anything you want from my shop?"

Asked Farak, who seemed to have just been working on something but postponed it because of the arrival of Taufik, Gaia, and Lembuswana.

"... I was just looking around, No need to care about me, just continue your work"

"It’s so, then excuse me, your Majesty, Lord Lembuswana... Oh~ and if you Interested in something just take it, and if you want to ask about something, just ask the kid over there"

Said Farak before leaving, while pointing at a human child standing in the corner, trembling because of the presence of the three highest people in the kingdom.

"... I’ll do that"

Said Taufik, while looking at the products in Farak’s shop.

"What it is honey? Are you interested in something?"

"Not yet, But as expected of a Dwarf, the items they created were truly extraordinary. If just one of these items got out there, it would cause a sensation, Any one of these items can be sold for a very high price..."

Hearing this, those around immediately fell silent, especially Gaia, and then Taufik continued his speech.

"But the state of this kingdom is very dangerous, after looking around, all aspects of this kingdom, whether it’s technology, culture, or human resources, everything is very advanced several centuries ahead than what this era should have, if the surrounding kingdoms find out about this, we could be attacked from every direction considering this island is right in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean, and around us are all great powers of this era, Not to mention from the Eastern Roman Empire and other kingdoms....

a siege from those kingdoms to take over this kingdom could happen... Gaia, have there been any strange movements in the past few years? You said before that some important people of the kingdom are currently outside the kingdom, what are they doing?"

Taufik asked Gaia, and hearing this Gaia seemed a little doubtful, especially after hearing Taufik’s explanation. Experience new stories on m v|l e’m,p| y- r

"... Actually, I sent some people to other kingdoms to build relationships and introduce our kingdom’s products to the outside world. We have actually prepared this plan for a long time, but only recently was the plan implemented because we were able to create a ship... I sent some envoys to the kingdoms around us.

It’s been almost a month since they left, and with the ship technology we have, they should be back in the next few days... honey, did I do something wrong?"

"..."

After listening to what Gaia said, Taufik immediately had a bad feeling, in this era, where Magic can be used by anyone as long as they are willing to try, wars between kingdoms can happen anytime, and with anyone, that’s why this Era is called the dark era, wars occur on every continent and deaths occur every day, If news gets out that their kingdom has resources and technology this advanced, their kingdom can be considered a threat to other kingdoms, If that happens, war is inevitable.

"... Let’s go to back the Palace first"

Said Taufik, and then he, Gaia, and Lembuswana returned to their carriage and were escorted by the soldiers.

On the way to the palace, Taufik told Gaia about what he was worried about, and Gaia, who heard this, could not help but feel worried.

"... So what do we have to do? What if what you said is actually happening?"

"What are you worried about? Do you forget what The man In front of you is capable of? Not to mention about me and Nāgāntaka, and our soldiers and Magician is not that weak either, you don’t have to worry that much"

Said Lembuswana, intending to calm Gaia down.

"It’s not that simple, Lembu, we can indeed defend ourselves, but what about the people in this Kingdom? You have to remember that the position of this island is right in the middle of the ocean; there is nothing around us; what if we are surrounded from all sides? Are you confident that you can protect everyone?"

"..."

Hearing this, Lembuswana immediately fell silent, what Taufik said was true, they were indeed strong, but that did not rule out the possibility that they could not protect everyone in this Kingdom, in every war there would definitely be casualties, whether from soldiers or civilians, but if they were attacked from all sides, many casualties would fall.

"... T-Then... What if we put up a big barrier around this island? You could at least do that, honey, or at least just the residential areas"

Gaia said, their island has an oval shape, and with their Palace located on a hill as the center, which is surrounded by residential areas, but it is still right on the edge of the sea, they didn’t even build a wall around it because, for the past five years, no Beasts dared to enter the island, so the construction of the wall can be postponed, besides that part of the island is used as agricultural land or for other things.

"... The residential area only covers 30-40% of the entire island, so-"

"It won’t be that easy either, Gaia, using the Barrier will only be a temporary solution... And those kingdoms must also have their own Magician troops...

I, Lembuswana, and Nāgāntaka could defeat them easily, but that would only make things worse because the other kingdoms would see our kingdom as a great threat, they might work together to unite their forces against us, that would be the same as fighting the entire world"

"I can Ask, Chelone and the others for help, they probably can help us a-"

"Gaia, do you remember about that 500 Hundred Years War that you said to me before? That’s the future you see, right? If we fight those kingdoms, a future where the 500-year war could turn into a war between our kingdom and the entire world, is there no other future you see?"

Said Taufik, which immediately made Lembuswana confused about the direction of this conversation.

"What I received from my memories from the future were just fragments of memories, not explaining everything completely, what I saw was just a war that lasted for a very long time, up to hundreds of years, I don’t know who was involved in the war"

"... I see"

Said Taufik while stroking his chin.

"Wait! Wait!! Wait!!! What it’s all about? I can’t follow the flow of your conversation at all, 500 years of war? What’s that?"

Lembuswana suddenly interrupted in the middle of the conversation between Taufik and Gaia

"..."

"..."

"Are you saying that we will stay in this era for 500 hundred years more? No! Thank you, Five years is enough for me to be patient, but five hundred years? Your child might be an adult when we return to the future, do you want that, Fik? Not to mention Jenn and the others, what would they think if you did that? Being selfish also has its limits, kid"

Lembuswana Burst out with a slightly angry tone and raised voice, which made Taufik and Gaia look at him with confused looks.

"... What? When did I say that we would stay in this era for five Hundred years more? At most, it will only be another five years"

"Eh? You don’t say that?" Ask Lembuswana.

"No, I didn’t... " Taufik Answered

"He didn’t?" Lembuswana asks while looking at Gaia.

"... He didn’t..." Gaia answered while shaking her head.

"Ohh... It’s okay then, please Continued"

"..."

"..."

--------------

It was already mid-afternoon when they arrived at the Palace; Taufik, Gaia, and Lembuswana checked Nāgāntaka’s condition again, and the condition seemed to be getting better.

The three of them went to a gazebo near the big tree to continue their previous conversation which had to be postponed because of Lembuswana.

"... So, Honey, Do you have a way for that?"

Ask Gaia, to open the conversation.

"Actually we don’t need to worry too much about it for now, because it’s just "If" If the thing I’m afraid of really happens... But it doesn’t hurt to be prepared, because there’s a good chance it will happen"

"You’re right, so is there something on your mind?"

"... Actually there is one, but that’s only if you can afford it or not"

"Really? That what is it?" Ask Gaia enthusiastically.

"... we have to make this island disappear"

Said Taufik, which, of course, made Lembuswana and Gaia, who heard this, suddenly shocked.

"... WHAT? Are you Insane, Kid? Do you want to make this Island disappear?"

"It’s hard to admit, but this time I have to agree with Lembu, honey"

Lembuswana and Gaia expressed their opinions on the method Taufik suggested; however, making this island disappear seemed like something stupid to do; considering the hard work they and the people who had built this island to this stage, of course, they were not willing to do all that.

"Wait~ Wait~ You guys seem to be misunderstanding something... By "disappearing" I don’t mean destroying this island or anything like that, but something else... Listen to me, it’s like this..."
