Magic Mech Wars Steel Torrent-Chapter 106 The Transcendents
Chapter 106 - 106 The Transcendents
In Lena's exclusive teacher's residence.
Sulian and Nalin, who had finished their classes in the afternoon, came here.
Lena had also prepared dinner to entertain her new students.
...
"Aunt Lena specifically invited us here. Is there something you want to tell us?" Sulian asked curiously.
After all, it was a public place at noon, and it was a bit inconvenient. At the same time, they had already learned that, according to seniority, Lena was actually of the same generation as Ivy, but she was born several hundred years earlier.
"First, let me tell you something that you probably have already guessed. That is, our witch race will not interfere in the affairs between other races or the internal wars within a race. Occasionally, there are some of us who come here as teachers, and what we teach is actually ordinary content," L
ena said seriously.
"We did probably guess that," Sulian nodded.
Since the witch race went into seclusion, their image has, somewhat subtly, become that of "transcendents."
Except for the vampire race, which is a long-lived species and holds grudges, and still continues to harbor hatred towards witches, the rest of the hatred has actually faded away a lot. Especially among humans, there are almost no bad impressions of witches anymore.
What remains is just a basic sense of fear towards a powerful and mysterious race.
"So, whether it's emperors, monarchs, or other such people who want to cooperate with the witch race to obtain transcendent powers, our attitude is the same as that of the dragon race. We will completely reject you."
"Therefore, I also hope that you don't have any ulterior motives towards Cielily, or towards our entire witch race."
"At most, you can obtain, with your identity as a vampire, some understanding of magic power that exceeds the current understanding of humans. You might also be able to obtain some of the technologies of goblins and dwarves, but you will definitely not be able to reach their top-level technologies."
Lena said this just as seriously.
Obviously, these witches who have lived for hundreds of years are very intelligent people.
Sulian's simple ulterior motives naturally couldn't be hidden from them.
...
"I have also guessed this. Please rest assured, Aunt Lena," Sulian smiled.
He had already guessed from some of Cielily's words that it was impossible for witches to easily help humans or other races.
"As expected, you're very smart. Even at the age of thirteen, you can understand so much. You truly live up to the prophecy," Lena said with a bit of satisfaction, putting her hands on her hips.
"Oh?" Sulian's expression then became serious.
Prophecy?
So, in this world of magic and battle qi, there really are prophecy-related magics or abilities?
Do the witch race have them?
"It seems you're not very surprised. So you have indeed made some speculations? You really think about a lot of things," Lena was actually a bit surprised.
"This guy is always like this," Nalin was already used to it.
"Then I'll just be straightforward."
"Among our witch race, there is a special starry sky that represents the fortune of our world. And just last year, a new star suddenly shone brightly, rivaling the other already bright stars."
"Do you know what this means, little Lyndel?"
Lena asked with a smile.
"A troubled time, with many kings rising simultaneously," Sulian replied indifferently.
"That's right, and our prophecy ability is more accurate than that of other races. We can roughly infer that the new star comes from the northwest of the world. So we are quite vigilant and wonder if it has something to do with the dragon race in the northwest corner. Therefore, besides her own rese
arch on dragon language magic, Cielily's trip to the dragon race was also to investigate this matter," Lena said bluntly.
"Then why did you finally conclude that it was me? My current identity is just the grandson of the smallest prince in a small, marginal kingdom," Sulian retorted.
"The birth of a king is always accompanied by the emergence of new things, new powers, new forces, and so on."
"Magic-powered vehicles, plowing machines, a new reform model, an educational model, and there should even be new weapons. Cielily didn't take a close look at the things you've hidden, but it's not hard to guess."
"These things shouldn't have been thought up by Esha and Polly, right? If they were, with Esha's ambition, he wouldn't have waited until now to act."
Lena looked at Sulian and smiled.
It was obvious that whether the "king" in the prophecy was Sulian or not was already evident.
Nalin also fell silent and looked at Sulian with a new sense of scrutiny.
Could he really...
become one of the true kings of this world?
...
The witch race truly deserves its reputation for being mysterious and powerful. It even sends a slight shiver down my spine.
"Even though..."
"I myself have witch blood in me."
Sulian finally smiled again, with a sense of relief.
"That's right. All my actions, plans, and goals are to become one of the undisputed rulers of this war-torn world," Sulian stretched out his hand and clenched it into a fist.
Since he had already been seen through, there was no point in pretending anymore.
Being timid and hesitant didn't match the image of a "king" at all.
So what if he was found out? Even if the nearby Kingdom of Kenrimei knew about it, he wouldn't stop his steps!
"However, there is one thing. The prophecy has a big flaw," Sulian smiled.
"Oh? What is it?" Lena asked curiously.
"That is, I have no interest in the traditional 'kings' or 'emperors.' That so-called 'king' is not my goal."
"What I want is not something so superficial!"

"The prophecy can't predict my true ambition!"
Sulian smiled, with a hint of ferocity and madness.
You've guessed it?
Well, then I'll show you an even more crazy side!
Will you continue to act as if nothing special has happened?
Or will you secretly leak the news?
Or do you have the intention of cooperation?
Let me take a gamble!
...
Sulian didn't believe that the witches truly just wanted to be "transcendents"!
Otherwise, in the past, they wouldn't have incurred the enmity of all races and been forced to choose seclusion.
In other words, their current image as "transcendents" is just the best result they could achieve after being forced to make that choice.
It was never their original intention.
So they must have other thoughts, thoughts that are unique to their hearts!
...
"Hmph..." Lena chuckled.
Her smile carried a complex meaning.
"You are indeed different. The Witch Queen might give you special consideration," Lena said.
"Whether she will or not, I'll find out when I go to the witch race after I come of age," Sulian no longer tried to avoid the topic.
Regarding the witch race, it was obvious that there were many things that couldn't be hidden.
This race was just like that.
They possess transcendent longevity, transcendent wisdom, and transcendent power.
Rather than being timid in the face of them, it was indeed more practical to be straightforward and decisive.
At least, some people might dislike those who are powerful, but there are definitely only a few who like those who are weak!
...
"Alright, come and taste the dishes that I specifically asked the chef from a big hotel in the city to make. I hope you'll like them. After all, as someone of your aunt's seniority, it wouldn't be reasonable if I didn't entertain you when you come here," Lena smiled.
"Then we won't be polite anymore," Sulian smiled.
So, are witches who can stay outside generally nicer in character?
If all witches treated half-breeds like this, then Nalin's mother wouldn't have had to wait for her father's arrival to be freed.
"The taste is really good. It has a unique flavor," Nalin nodded and commented.
"Indeed," Sulian also nodded as he chewed.
"I'm glad you like it," Lena smiled.
"Speaking of which, we actually wanted to ask you something," Sulian took this opportunity to say.
"What is it?" Lena asked.
"Do you know where Nalin's father, Auguste, is?" Sulian asked.
"Oh? Are you already thinking about meeting your father-in-law so soon?" Lena teased.
"Hmph," Sulian and Nalin sneered simultaneously.
This loli auntie?
This shota-like guy?
"It seems it's not the case for now," Lena was at a loss for words.
These two kids seem to mainly have a cooperative relationship for now. The combination of a vampire and a werewolf is really interesting.
You know, during the heyday of the vampire race, even among vampires, they weren't that harmonious with each other.
As expected, around the "king," everything is changing.
"Mainly, Nalin wants to find her scumbag father so that she can prepare to beat him up when she gets stronger in the future. I also want to learn more about this powerful vampire. It would be best if he could teach me blood magic better. I think this magic is very practical in some aspects," Sulian
said.
"You mean in terms of control? Indeed, it's not advisable to have too many vassals," Lena understood.
"Yeah," Sulian nodded.
"But I've only met that guy a few times. He's really a womanizer and goes around looking for women everywhere. His only advantage is probably that when he discovers excellent descendants, he will take them back to the clan and train them well. With your current situation, Nalin, it won't be long bef
ore your father comes to find you on his own," Lena said.
"He will come to find me?" Nalin was taken aback.
"Yeah, that's right," Lena nodded.
"Aunt Lena, do you have any magic items that can trap and kill a Dharma God-level strongman? I want to prepare in advance," Nalin asked seriously.
"..." Lena.
What a filial daughter! When she heard that her father was coming back, she even thought about preparing a "gift" in advance.
So touching!
"Poison probably won't work on vampires, right?" Sulian asked casually.
"Liquid poisons basically cause death through the bloodstream. For a vampire Dharma God who has absolute control over the power of blood, it's naturally useless. But there should be poisons specifically for vampires within the clan. Do you want me to apply for some for you?" Lena smiled.
"Please, Aunt Lena, do help me with that!" Nalin said seriously.
"You're really serious about this..." Lena said.
"Her mother has passed away," Sulian simply said.
"I see," Lena understood.
She could probably imagine what kind of situation Nalin grew up in.
"What are Auguste's criteria for excellent descendants?" Sulian asked.
"Under the age of forty-eight and with the strength of a seventh-rank Arch Magician," Lena said.
Nalin's expression became serious.
That might mean, in the near future, at least this year.
"I really need to prepare the poison earlier," Nalin seriously considered.
"..." Lena.
This kid really hates her father a lot, doesn't she?
