So, what you mean is that you will infect them and make them fight against each other? Then, why do you still need troops? one of the men in the conference hall asked.

Davey remembered the man, who had been the one standing at the forefront when the previous Knight Commander Gaor had betrayed them.

Please explain it in a way that is easy for me to understand. Im getting on with age, so I dont understand your plan well.

The man was not the only one. Most of the knights in the conference hall were also confused.

To put it simply, I want to increase the number of parasites that will infect and kill the vampires. The parasites are harmless to humans but very deadly to vampires. As long as they werent decent high-ranking vampires, the vampires would all get infected. Then, they would be forced to bite and fight against each other.

In fact, Davey would never have thought of such a plan if he did not have severed parts of that creature from the Abyss.

Besides, biohazards were not necessarily limited to human beings, right?

Then, what do you want our higher-ups to do?

The parasites cannot be transferred through air. Although they might look like organisms, they are still magical substances. In other words, we would need materials that can serve as their catalyst, Davey said as he pulled out a small stone from his Pocket Plane.

The stone was discolored. It had turned black, but it still looked smooth and glossy, a testament to how well taken care of it had been.

That

A Mutant Wolfs teeth?

A Mutant Wolf was an evil beast that could be found all over the continent. However, only decent hunters knew of their existence. It was also a very common evil beast that the Alpha Reinforcements had to deal with.

Most of the items I need to make the catalyst can be handled and obtained by placing requests to the mercenaries. However, items like Mutant Wolfs teeth and Ice Scorpions saliva are not that easy to get.

Having money did not mean that anyone could obtain everything that they wanted. Under such circumstances, Davey being a member of the secret knight order, Alpha Reinforcements, would prove to be of great merit.

Im not lying.

After speaking, Davey stepped back and spoke no further. Then, he looked at the knights through the glittering crystal ball.

At the very least, you wont have to shed the blood of innocent humans even if mistakes were made.

Then, what are you going to do with the higher-ranking vampires?

Ill take care of them myself. We just have to keep the non-threatening ones alive and kill the rest.

The knight orders higher-ups could not accept Daveys plan. Whether he planned to kill everyone or not, his plan was not normal at all.

Dont you have a more refined method? No matter what you say, biochemical terrorism is

Right, shall we go that route? Davey asked, instantly silencing them.

Non-believers are spread all throughout the continent, and they are hiding in secret places that even the greatest information guilds would not be able to discover. If this turns into an all-out war, many people will die. The lands will also be polluted, creating a land that would be unusable.

By then, perhaps the vampires would win the war. They would end up taking the humans as their captives, their prisoners of war, and turn them into livestock. They might even choose to have the humans bleed to death. As for the captives who would resist them, they would only be brutally executed or ridiculed harshly.

Of course, the demons who joined hands with the radical vampires would treat the humans no differently. After all, they had no good feelings for the human race either.

Is this something that would affect the entire continent? Or is this just a simple fight of the secular world?

The expressions of the knight orders higher-ups darkened.

Alright. Lets look at it in a positive light. Its not that hard to provide the materials needed for the catalyst. Member Davey, the materials that youre asking for are in the knight orders warehouse. Well give you what we have in stock for now. Well contact you through the messenger birds once we have obtained additional supplies.

Yes.

Member Davey.

When Davey turned to look at him, Boris said, I feel sorry for you. Also, I havent thanked you properly.

The meeting with the knight orders higher-ups did not take too long. From the beginning, Davey was in a position where he couldnt possibly lose. Although it was a tad excessive that the parasites would only infect and harm vampires, completely leaving the humans unscathed, the knight order had no reason to not go with this plan. They could kill their opponents while minimizing the damage that they would incur, after all.

After delivering some of the parasites to the Alpha Reinforcements, Davey briefed them on how to use the parasites. It was simple to use the parasite, also known as a kind of parasitic substance. As long as they could get the parasitic substance into the opponents body, then everything would be over.

There would be vampires who would be immune to the parasites, but most of them would succumb to it in the end.

Davey was sure that the introduction of the parasite on the battlefield would create a big fuss. Would the power of the Abyss protect them? Absolutely not. Davey was confident that this biochemical warfare would cause fear within them. He was sure that they would remember this war forever.

You messed with the wrong person, f*ckers.

After the meeting ended, Davey was sent off by his colleagues in the knight order, who all said that they would visit him once they had the time.

Upon returning to Heins Territory, Davey entered his private laboratory, which nobody else had access to. He immediately grabbed the sack that he had received from the knight order from his Pocket Plane and threw it out.

Hey, Davey. Did you really need to make a catalyst for the parasitic substance that you have created?

Davey shook his head silently.

Rinnes very quick witted. Rinnes sure that Davey has scammed them.

What a quick-witted brat.

Right on the mark. Rinne might be a very old existence, but Rinnes senses are still very fast. I am quick on the uptake.

Right. Grandma.

After listening to Daveys answer, Rinne stopped speaking proudly and frowned. She had always kept an expressionless face no matter how she felt, but she was now showing her sense of dissatisfaction to Davey.

Rinne? Davey asked, noticing the change of expression on Rinnes face.

Rinne evaluates this lowly. Rinne evaluates Daveys personality to be very low, Rinne said with a frown as she moved away. Kicking the materials that were scattered on the floor like a sulking child, she grumbled, Very low evaluation

Then, she went silent.

Davey. Explain it to me in detail. Is Rinne speaking the truth?

Thats right, Davey said calmly.

He poured the items that he had received for the catalyst into a reagent bottle. Then, he placed some other substances and materials into it before reaching his hand out.

Temperature should be roughly around Davey mumbled as flames started to appear on his fingertips.

At the same time, the liquid in the bottle began to change in color.

After a few moments, Davey poured the mixture in a mold that he had prepared beforehand and left it to harden. He needed it to turn into small lumps of metal.

Whats this thing for?

Its a lithium battery.

Lithium?

Well, its similar to a lithium battery, but it doesnt circulate electricity. It circulates the mana in nature. Its not a good product due to its inefficiency, but it is perfect for the watch to enable movements of the different parts. Also, the production method is very simple.

This battery would work semi-permanently as long as there was mana present. Well, that was unless the battery ended up broken by a strong impact or its battery life was used up.

The mana does not supplement its durability?

It can be done. But is there a reason for me to do so?

Perserques eyes grew wide at Daveys words.

I see We can sell more if the battery life has a limit.

Were going to run a business here. We would incur losses if we improve the item and make it perfect.

The watch that Aeonitia had envisioned was but a simple watch. However, there was no way that the busy and ordinary people would want a refined and elegant watch. Davey knew that they would want the cheaper option as long as they could check the time anytime they wanted.

Davey could tell that there would be a need for the lithium battery soon. Since he had to worry about it sooner or later, he thought it would be better for him to deal with it now. However, it would be shocking to the knight order if they found out that the raw materials that they had given for the war against the vampires was being used to make a part of the watch.

Theres no such thing as a free lunch in this world! What, did they expect me to incur losses when doing business?

Youre a very vicious human.

This is how a person survives.

This was a misappropriation of materials, but that was just the way that they lived. Of course, it would be a different matter altogether if Davey had embezzled the materials and failed to achieve his original purpose.

Then, what about the rest of the materials? If youre talking like that, then that means you will use the rest of the materials for something else, right?

Davey took out the materials that he had placed in a separate bag and spread them across the table. He threw them in a cauldron that he had prepared beforehand and mixed them until everything was dissolved. Then, he separated them into several test tubes.

Well use it here.

After that, Davey placed the sealing stone and a lump of flesh on a small magic circle that was painted on the one side of the laboratory. The lump of flesh was a severed tentacle that had been ripped out of the Abyss, the very same lump of flesh that could exert power that transcended the laws of this world.

Perserque, whose face had turned pale, hurriedly hid in Daveys pocket the moment she saw the wriggling lump of flesh.

I cant stand how it looks.

Thats just its appearance. The power it has is very much useful to us.

Davey was trying to separate some of the powers contained in the tentacles and seal them in the sealing stone. It was the final step that he needed to take for the creation of Reinas body.

Vwooooooong

A while after the magic circle was activated, purple sparks began to pop out of the lump of flesh.

Davey poured out the reagent that he had prepared earlier on the flesh. He said, Stay still.

Fwiiiiiiiish

When the lump of flesh shrunk like a deflated ball, Davey took this as a cue to move the mana that he had on standby to draw out the tentacles power.

Did it fail?

If it has failed, then it should already be frozen to death. Well, if this fails too, then we will be left in a pretty desperate situation where we have to look for another solution.

[8th Circle]

[Custom Space]

For insurance, Davey had covered the entire area with his magic to prevent his power from leaking into the surrounding area. It would keep his power suspended in the air and trapped by the mana that he released.

Slowly, ever so slowly, the power began to seep into the sealing stone.

Davey had already experimented on Reinas body several times, and he had deemed this to be the most perfect solution so far.

When the sealing stone gradually decreased in size along with the light of the power seeping into it, Davey retrieved his Transcendence Demise from his Pocket Plane.

T-The Transcendence Demise! Oh, its been a long time since I last saw that!

Perserque, who hadnt given up on her lingering desire for the staff, left Daveys pocket with twinkling eyes. However, realizing that the lump of flesh was still beneath her made her shrink back inside the pocket.

Grow, quickly!

Thud!

The sealing stone, now the size of a fingernail, began to grow once again. Davey waited for it to grow to the size that he wanted as he kept adjusting it.

When the sealing stone finally grew into the size of a human heart, Davey sprinkled the rest of the reagent from the bottle.

That is?

Its to make it pliant and flexible. This would be the substitute for an actual heart. If its hard and tough, then we could risk the possibility of incurring internal damage.

Perserque looked at the softening sealing stone in awe. It had also succeeded in sealing the power of the tentacles from the Abyss within it.

Davey had no regrets. After all, he had truly given his all under the conditions that he had.

As for the tentacles? After the power had been separated from them and sealed up properly, the tentacles began to shrink and dry up.

What a pity

Davey did not use all of the tentacles, but he still felt that it was a pity that he had lost half of them with this attempt. Leaving the dried up tentacles behind, he took out Reina's body that was floating in a tube. Then, he placed the soft sealing stone in the chest area and casted his magic over it.

Dozens of magic circles appeared and overlapped above the soft sealing stone, releasing magic that gradually sank into Reinas chest.

Davey watched the process unfold before him in silence. However, he could not help the frown that started to appear on his face as he silently observed Reinas body.

Huh? Why isnt she opening her eyes?

Davey smiled as he lifted a small fragment up. Then, he said, The soul is here. If she opened her eyes like that, then that would be a problem.

After that, he pushed the fragment into Reinas forehead and turned around. He commented, Her soul will settle down in a few days or so. Only after that will she be able to wake up.

The body that Davey had created for Reina could be said to be the embodiment of his greed and ambitions. It was still a prototype for what was certainly a non-human body.

Just as he was thinking about that

Ugh Uuuuugh

I dont think it will take a few days though

The reaction came far too early.
