Odyssey of the Blind God-Chapter 551 Support
"You are going to construct your own shelter in the future?" The Dracos Leader asked as his reptilian eyes further narrowed.
Looking at Nial, it seemed pretty obvious that the young Original was not joking. Nial was serious about his plan to construct a shelter in the near future.
It might take a few years to prepare everything but once the preparations were complete, he would start creating the shelter with all his might.
One could easily tell that it was a great risk to build their own separate shelter since many races prepared for decades to create their own territory as well. Not many would want to find a shelter where all kinds of races were accepted.
The creation of such a shelter may cause lots of trouble, both internal and external, because of the different cultures that would inevitably clash. There were many more issues but Nial seemed to be certain that the advantages would definitely outweigh the disadvantages. f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦
With that in mind, the Dracos Leader recalled his superiors' commands. He looked at the Forgotten Runic Armaments and thought about the Broken Runic Armaments Nial had used to fight against Michael before he began to frown.
"If you are valuable enough, you can get easily use your influence on the Draco race to make them support the construction of the shelter. But that would require me to go back and talk to my superiors. Furthermore, I doubt that they would be willing to accept any proposal if they're not given full control of their own district!" The Dracos Leader explained neatly.
He was not angry at Nial's accusation of mistreating the Greater Forest Dragon egg because he realized that they might have actually done just that. It was a little bit humiliating but that was still fine since Nial chose to make them realize their mistake in private, rather than doing a public announcement to the Greater Dragons that the Draco race was treating one of their unborn brethren like some unwanted piece of wastage.
"I can give you houses to dwell in but not an entire district ruled by your superiors. I won't discriminate and allow any race to have a separate place for themselves. At least, I won't allow only one race to control certain places, or restrict other races from finding a place to stay even if that would mean that Pyromas Elves were to end up in a house surrounded by Dracos," Nial shared his vision of giving every single race the choice to live in his shelter freely, not bothering whether the Dracos would accept that or not.
He could tell that the Dracos Leader was very interested in his Forgotten Runic Armament, which was also why he had retrieved a Forgotten Broken Runic Armament from his spatial ring, which he handed the Dracos Leader as well.
"By the way, it will be possible for me to create better armaments in the near future. In two to four years, I will be able to perfectly create Advanced Forgotten runic constellations. By then, you can consider me an Archmaster Runicier!" Nial announced to Michael Ignis and the Dracos Leader.
Princess Evalyne had long since disappeared. She rushed to the Divinity Fragment portal to take the Greater Forest Dragon to Yggdrasil where it would be treated by Yggdrasil's life force and everything they could find to make sure that the Greater Forest Dragon would feel safe and secured before and after it hatched.
However, if she were to hear what Nial just said, Princess Evalyne would rush back and tell him that the Elves would wholeheartedly support his construction of a shelter.
Halheim was a nice shelter but it was still controlled by other powers. The origin humans didn't really want to accept other races amidst them either, not after what happened with the Linaton race.
Nial knew that he could change their opinion of other races but overthrowing the government and all organizations just because he was stronger would turn him into a Tyrant, which was not exactly what Nial wanted. Furthermore, by leaving the Halheim shelter, Nial gave the Elves the opportunity to grow and further expand the Forest of Life without the need for them to care about the shelter.
The surrounding area of the Halheim shelter was also not perfect and the number of dungeon portals at all ranks wasn't changing much either. Halheim's surroundings were still a treasure trove for others, but not for Nial whose standards for a treasure had changed drastically with the passage of time.
He witnessed how strong Dilan's Soul Weapon, Oricalm, was and he wished to create an even better weapon for himself. This required lots of resources, which he could only procure by trading with other races or by conquering higher-ranked dungeons. The latter was certainly cheaper as he could get his hands on other treasures as well while conquering a dungeon. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚
Too many things had yet to be figured out but Nial wanted the Dracos to help him construct the shelter. He also required a bunch of Dracos to create the runic armaments of the best quality since they were great blacksmiths. Other than that, they were great teachers as well.
"Just think about it," Nial said before he added, "it would be great if you could leave a few Master, or even better, Grandmaster Blacksmiths with me because I want to continue experimenting with the forgotten runic constellations I've learned from Damian's memories. The Blacksmiths of the Draco race are the best and I want the highest probability to create the best possible result!
"Who said that they're going to leave?" the Draco Leader suddenly retorted, causing Nial to tilt his head in confusion.
"If the Halheim shelter accepts their temporary residency, the small Draco army will stay here and help you with everything you need. Consider that as the payment for the few Broken Runic Armaments, you gave me to hand over to the research team of Runiciers!" The Dracos Leader explained but that was only more confusing to Nial.
'A hundred thousand Dracos working for me as a payment for those few Broken Runic Armaments?' Nial wondered before he handed the Dracos Leader a few more Broken Runic armaments that had been created with forgotten runic constellations.
"Give them these armaments, please. Consider it as my token of gratitude for their help!" Nial said loudly as he handed the armaments over to the Dracos Leader.
Afterward, they talked for a while before Nial left them to talk to Master Crevian about his idea to create a shelter that allowed all races to find a new home as long as they can forget about their hostility with other races that may or may not seek the shelter as well.
Master Crevian was only mildly surprised about Nial's idea but he supported it nonetheless. He was certain that Nial would do a great job and he said that the Elves would help create long-distance teleportation circles, and in any other way required.
That was nice to hear and it was also enough reason for Nial to think more about the idea of the creation of the shelter. Planning everything may take a few years but the gains were bound to be great as long as they could bait a few races to join them. The more he thought about it, the more excited Nial got.
'Maybe it's worth a try…'
