"How do I use it?"
Suddenly, the armor moved by and wrapped itself around Aldred's body, covering him from tip to toe. The armor even covered his face.
Inside, Aldred had some kind of advance user interface that showed the information about the armor; its status and etc. And also it analyzed everything around him. It even had identity identifier.
When Aldred looked at Stella, the description said she was Aldred's wife. That was it. Corduul only know that information about her so that was the only thing added to the memory of this armor.
Aldred's godly eyes were far more powerful than that, but it was a neat feature nonetheless. The user interface could even connect to external devices such as cameras or drones.
This would let him see so many things at once just like what Victor did during their fight. Victor still lose because Aldred was too fast for him.
But in Aldred's hand, that power would be in good use.
Right when Aldred activated that function, thousands of live feed appeared showing scenes all over the continent.
"Corduul, does the Mechanium always have this many satellites?"
"Yes. Although we are closed organization, we are always watching. Although our means are very limited since magic is not a part of our study. It is hard to figure out how magicians always manage to find out our satellites."
"Well, you have more than ten thousand already."
"And it has been proven that it wasn't enough. Otherwise, we would have been even stronger than now."
"Knowing your enemy is one thing, but growing in strength is another thing. Anyway, Brago's ships do not seem to notice the satellites."
"They probably don't see it as a threat," Dobbs replied.
"That makes sense."
"So, what are you going to do now?" Dobbs asked.
"What else is there to do?" Aldred smiled. "Of course, I am going to attack them."
"Don't you want to test the equipment first?" Stella asked.
Aldred shook his head. "I believe in their ability."
That statement made Dobbs and everyone that contributed to the creation of the armor proud.
In reality, Aldred already scanned the armor with his godly eyes and the information he received told him that there was nothing wrong with the armor.
His godly eyes had never lied before, so he trusted the information.
"By the way, where is Lyra?" Aldred asked Stella.
"She stayed in the royal palace. She said she will stay there until you meet her. I don't know why but she insisted on fighting alongside you."
"I fight better when I am alone," Aldred said. "Just let her be."
Stella sighed. Truly, she also wanted to help Aldred. But it was true, Aldred's battle tactic worked so well when he fought alone. This was because he could go all out and crazy.
"But I really need to learn how to fight in a group. When we go to the other continent, I might need some help. Anyway, I will take my leave now."
Stella smiled and nodded. "Take care."
She approached him and kissed him on the cheek. "Be safe out there."
"I will." Aldred grabbed her by the waist and kissed her on the lips.
Stella blushed and her body shook with excitement. She wrapped her arms around his neck and closed her eyes.
"Oh wow…" Zaxary reacted. "Did you guys see that?"
Dobbs giggled. "I am already used to it. Back when we sailed the sea, he used to do that with all of his wives all the time. Can't blame them though, there aren't that much thing to do aboard the ship."
"Wives… how many does he has?"
"I think he has ten."
"Ten… he's living the dream!"
Dobbs sighed. "Don't you know that most nobles have a lot of wives? And don't even count their concubines."
"Seriously? Damn, and here I am thinking if I would ever get a touch of a woman."
Dobbs laughed. "You're pathetic, boy."
Corduul snorted steam. "Don't waste your time chasing your opposing gender. They have this embedded instinct to play on your emotion. Become a steel, strong and firm, be a machine, it does its job no matter the weather."
Barne raised an eyebrow. "I can't believe you can be philosophical."
"You misjudged us. We are a very philosophical group."
"Despite losing your humanity?"
"We simply remove our weakness, but retain our strength. Humanity's greatest strength is its mind. Unfortunately, no machine could ever defeat its endless potential and possibility."
"Hmmm." Barne began to rethink his judgment on the Mechanicum. Perhaps they weren't as bad as he thought they were.
Aldred finally released the kiss and rubbed Stella's hair. "See you later." He vanished right after saying that.
Stella blushed and put both hands on her chest as she sighed. "Love is such a wonderful thing."
She then looked at everyone and smiled. She wasn't shy in showing her affection towards Aldred at all. "Well, let's watch Aldred's fight shall we."
She summoned her mirror.
…
Aldred appeared atop a mountain. Suddenly, the warships below aimed their cannon towards him and fired without delay. The upper part of the mountain got struck and literally deleted from existence.
Aldred was nowhere to be seen.
"The general is right. That man will come to destroy us."
"Did we get him?"
"I think so."
Suddenly, the barrier of the ship activated, but in a fraction of a second later, it shattered and a man in full armor landed on the ship.
A flame burst out from his right hand, forming into a terrifying blade and then he flashed.
For the sailors, Aldred's movement couldn't even be processed by their brain. To Aldred, however, it was like driving the fastest car in the world and used its full speed.
He was moving so fast, he could feel it, but with his godly eyes, he saw everything in slow motion.
In other words, he felt like he was the flash right now. He zipped left and right, slashing and hacking, before he sprinted inside the ships and destroyed it from the inside.
Aldred opened his palm and a fire lotus blossomed. He threw it inside the ship and it exploded, damaging the ships from within.
Although his spell was powerful, the warships held on. It was very hard to destroy Brago's mothership, but a few seconds later, Aldred managed to destroy one.
Before he could go to the next target, the other warships bombarded him with powerful beams, destroying the warships completely.
But Aldred was long gone.
"He's in the sky! Shoot him!"
Hundreds of beam came right at him.
Aldred flew left and right. Dodging all the beam so easily. He landed at another mothership and summoned a fire dragon that devoured all the sailors in it.
He then sent his clones. Four Aldred now flying around with ultra-speed.
Quickly, the four motherships were destroyed, and the smaller warships began to retreat.
Aldred wasn't about to let that happen. Tens of thousands of fire javelin began to rain down from the sky. The earth suddenly shook and created cracks all over with earth pillars continuously appearing out of the ground and slamming into the warships.
Typhoons appeared and blinded the sailors with dust clouds.
That was when rain began to fall, but instead of raindrops, the sailors were greeted with razor sharp ice.
The warships were filled screams of pain and everyone was scared. They had never experienced something like this before.
