The Time-Stop Breeding Uncle Want's to Retire

Chapter 143

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

The core of the alliance of races, commonly known as the Alliance, was simple and clear.

To escape the overwhelming threat of an enemy that no single race could withstand, past grudges were forgotten, and they cooperated with each other.

To put it bluntly, if the enemy next to you died, you could die too. Of course, there were some races who insisted on dragging others down with them.

Naturally, the result was mutual destruction.

If all the races on the continent had allied from the beginning, they might not have been pushed back so far. However, the demons knew that was impossible, and that’s why they decided to invade.

Even after forming the alliance, it creaked like a rusty, unoiled machine. So, to understand each other better, they established the first united knight order.

That was the Royal Knights.

Although they faced a crisis in the middle, they had roughly succeeded in rebuilding it.

At the center of this success was the new Commander of the Royal Knights, Hans. And Commander Hans was currently...

“Do you know anything about the legend of the Dragon Heart?”

He was investigating a certain legend. At first, he had dismissed it as just a legend, but recent changes had made Hans feel the need to investigate.

The first was the physical change.

His physical abilities had been greatly enhanced compared to before.

His reaction speed, as well as his judgment, had improved. He had become specialized for combat. If that were all, there wouldn’t be a problem.

However, the biggest problem was his thoughts. In other words, the change in his values.

Occasionally, violent thoughts dominated his mind.

For example, to violate the women around him... such absurd thoughts.

“The legend of the Dragon Heart... you say?”

“Yes.”

So, Hans chose to ask Cluna directly. Having lived for a very long time, she would surely know something.

Cluna, handing him a cup of tea she had brewed herself, said,

“There are many.”

“Many?”

“Yes, the Dragon Heart is a legendary treasure passed down from ancient times, a panacea, and sometimes even referred to as a divine artifact.”

“So, it’s an all-purpose substance that can be anything.”@@@@

“That’s a similar analogy.”

It was obvious. The Dragon Heart was the best material that could be used anywhere.

In fact, in the game, the Dragon Heart was used as the best enhancement material. Whether the target was a person or something else.

“But it is said that no one has ever seen a Dragon Heart in person.”

“No one? Not even you, Cluna?”

“No, not even me. That’s why it’s considered just a legend.”

This was unexpected information.

No one had ever seen a Dragon Heart? Hans tilted his head.

It was true that the Dragon Heart appeared as a bound item in the game.

Unlike online games, a bound item here meant that the item was bound to the character who acquired it.

So, if A got the Dragon Heart, only A could use it.

So, was the Dragon Heart here also related to bound items?

Moreover, as their individual problems were resolved, they had begun to develop significantly.

For instance, the 12 Tribes and the Orcs had stopped their excessive vigilance against each other.

Instead, they were using that energy for development elsewhere.

In terms of military power alone, the Orcs and the 12 Tribes could surpass even the Human Kingdom and the Dwarf Kingdom.

“Fortunately, the active expeditions have significantly reduced the wariness towards them. Now is the time to unite our strength.”

Up until now, it had just been a big picture drawn by Hans. To reduce the wariness and fear towards expeditions, and to make the leaders of the Alliance realize the benefits of expeditions.

If they did that, they would no longer hesitate to attack and reclaim the demon territories.

In fact, the Human Kingdom and the Dwarf Kingdom were enjoying the expeditions and had recovered a lot of territory.

The 12 Tribes and the Orcs were following suit.

However, the Elves were still not moving. The whereabouts and activities of the Vampires and Dragons were still largely unknown.

“So, what exactly do you want, Commander?”

“I’m planning an expedition. Not led by the Royal Knights, but by the Alliance.”

When the water comes in, it’s time to row the boat.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

A letter was delivered to each of the nations belonging to the Alliance. It was a letter sent in the name of Hans, the Commander of the Royal Knights. It was not something to be ignored.

Even if it was the Elves, who hated and despised Hans. If you simply let your emotions dictate your actions and exclude yourself, you would suffer the consequences. Eventually, you would fall behind.

And you wouldn’t be able to recover. The leader of the Elves and the Great Elder, Makenis, was thinking the same thing. Even after showing so much hostility, he was still given this opportunity to participate.

“He has too much leeway.”

In fact, Makenis already knew the truth of the matter. The World Tree was already a sword pointed at the Elves, and Hans and Cluna had saved countless Elves.

Nevertheless, Great Elder Makenis chose silence. Rather than resolving the Elves’ hatred, it was much easier to set a target and unite them.

He was prepared for the consequences.

To make the savior who saved the Elves their enemy instead. But even so, it had to be done. For the hope of his people, who had lost their salvation with the destruction of the World Tree.

And he thought that will had been demonstrated at the newly reopened Alliance meeting. It was practically a declaration in front of everyone.

Yet, he didn’t even care.

“...Is this the vessel of a hero?”

No matter what, if you were this noble, it would make the other person feel small. Great Elder Makenis was feeling that way too.

Occasionally, he felt like he was crumbling.

The elder who had uniquely supported the first hero who saved the world in the past. But as time passed, had he become a narrow-minded fool? It was truly pathetic.

“This is just ignoring us Elves!”

“That’s right! We must show them our strength!”

“...I see, Sir Hans. Is this how you saw me?”

Seeing them unable to get a grip on themselves even in this situation, inciting conflict, Great Elder Makenis let out a sigh.

Thinking that this was how Commander Hans had seen him in the past.
