Authority, nobody dislikes having authority, young and old, everyone is the same.
That is why having a matcha latte with twenty giant knights outside of the shop. Obviously, the customers ran away.
The owner and the staff had to remain since I'm quite a big deal. I stare at a staff, who collapses right as I make eye contact with him.
My Eyes of Judgement makes people feel like they are feeling the gaze of thousands, scrutinizing their every move.
I try to not look at other people in the eyes, more often or not, the forehead. But seeing them faint makes me smile.
Am I a sadist? Yes. It is fun looking at others in pain.
"[Your Majesty, The Republic of China, formerly known as Taiwan, had declared war against you.]", Utopia suddenly notified me.
Ah, right. Taiwan wanted to use the facilities left behind by China, but due to my flame, everything melted and unusable.
Oh, and the economy is basically abysmal without the world's precious factory. Well, at least Germany's steel production is twice as fast now.
Mongolia is preparing to fight, the Russians had dealt with all the invading zombies and declared war on the Mongolians not too long after.
Well, Temujin is back albeit damaged, didn't Utopia report they have a Dragon that can be used as a nuclear bomb? A moving capital that is also smart, that combination is dangerous.
I finished my matcha latte.
"Utopia, position Indianapolis and Yamato near Taiwan, just fire a few warning shots and fly the planes over them, go underwater when they retaliate.", I commanded as I cleaned my lips with a napkin.
I went over to the counter, where the receptionist was trembling. I just swiped my card and finished my payment.
Going outside, I saw a stand-off happening between the Mu Action Squad and my knights.
"Aren't you a bit rude?", I stated with a smile, walking calmly toward them, "While I do appreciate the warm welcoming, why were all of your gears?"
"Because we are cautious of what you might do, Argent Monarch.", the one with red stripes on his full-face helmet spoke, "Trouble seems to follow you everywhere you go."
Huh? I was deliberately causing trouble though.
"We are also confronting an Enemy of Humanity.", he added.
Right...
"I'll raid Geneva for that.", I sighed, "I am here to take out a few God Slayers from the Vault."
I jumped up high, a knight transformed back into jet mode. Landing on it, we made our escape, followed by the other knights who are also in jet mode.
"Wait!!"
Bullets felt toward us, but due to superior armor, they just bounced off the jets.
I see it, the golden Vault door, where the Custodians are already on the move, aiming their weapons at me.
I jumped off the jet, which performed a power loop, transformed into robot mode, and landed behind me.
"Kneel."
With one command from me, the Custodians forcefully kneeled down. Confusion spread to their ranks as to why their body obeys me.
I leisurely walk as if I own the place, well, I do own this place after all.
"Be quiet.", I added another command, shutting them all up.
I approached the giant Vault as tall as a five-story building, smiling.
"Utopia, open the door for me."
The giant Vault creaked, and the mechanical seals twisted and hissed, unlocking several layers of protection. It took about five minutes for it to open slightly.
I entered through the gap, smiling as I saw what could be an art gallery, displaying hundreds of God Slayers in glass cases. This place is pretty dark, lining the walls and ceiling with lead sheets, and some type of Creation-related Relics.
Let's see... the items I want to get are...
I smashed a glass display, grabbing a lead ball as big as a bowling ball. Inside is the core of the First Nuclear Bomb, Trinity, or the byproduct of it to be exact, a supermaterial that is extremely dense and emits destructive radiation.
I dropped it into my Gate of Akasha.
The next one is a little further, I smashed another glass display, taking out a knife with a white hilt— oh, I completely vanished. I let go of the knife, dropping it into my Gate. That was Carnwennan, the Knife of Pendragon, it completely hid the wielder's existence from the world - true stealth.
It was a weapon so dangerous the British had to let go, fall into the wrong hands and nobody could find the wielder, who could commit countless acts of terror without ever being found.
Next up is...
Ah, there it is. A Walther PPK, glowing with an ominous aura. This is the gun Hitler used to commit suicide, it became a Cursed Artifact due to the resentment humanity had for Hitler, once the gun is fired, someone who humanity deemed the most evil will die.
Can this kill me?
Click.
I pulled the trigger, but nothing happened.
"[Your Majesty, an Islamic terrorist organization leader just died from an unknown gunshot.]", Utopia informed me.
Huh, I am not the most evil person. Well, my approval rating is over eighty percent.
I dropped the gun into my Gate.
Now for the last item... where is it?
Hmm... ah, there it is.
On the top shelf all the way in the back. The Skull of Ramses the Great, a skull that is just sitting there in the glass display.
What can this do? Well... it can manifest an Inner World into Reality, Ramses' Inner World to be exact.
I smashed the display and took the skull.
I got everything I needed, so it's time to leave.
Walking out of the Vault, with it closing behind me. The Custodians were fighting to get to me, but my knights blocked their path rather easily.
I caught a bullet flying toward me, the MAS is here too.
"I got everything I needed.", I snapped my finger, "Retreat."
The knights disengaged and transformed back into jets, I hopped on one of them, riding to the front. The people down below watched on with dumbfounded expressions, well, they were hidden by helmets but I could just feel it.
I touched the ceiling, "Deconstruct."
A hole broke through, big enough for the jets to fly through. It was rather quick, in my opinion.
And as I exit, "Reconstruct."
Everything went back to normal...
Well...
I landed on the ground, but the jets did not and instead circled around the area.
"Hello, Mom.", I smiled.
Seria was standing there, pissed. Wearing a plain white T-shirt and jeans, but her skeletal draconic wings and tail were out. Her crimson eyes glow with fury beneath them.
"Charlotte Silvi, I cannot let you tarnish the reputation and form of the Gray Ghost anymore.", she crossed her arms, "I demand you send back all of the United States of America's ships."
"I would like to decline.", a chuckle went up, "Heh, you cannot do anything, Mom."
"Young lady, I will fucking kill you if that's the last thing I do.", she was absolutely furious.
I summoned Quirinus to my hand, "You are speaking the language I understand best, Seria."
I pointed my lance at her, "Do you want me to use my full arsenal?"
"Satanic Ritual - Pandemonium."
She did not wait to answer me. The ground beneath me lit up, a pentagon was drawn across the city.
Hmm, I don't want to destroy Novah... let's try it now.
I summon the Skull of Ramses the Great.
"Heed my words, O' Ancient King of the Golden Oasis. Reveal to the World your Future Paradise.", I held it to the front of me, the hollow sockets in its eyes lit up upon my command, "In the Name of Humanity, Come Forth... Ramesseum Obris Aureus."
The world around us changed, where dust and rubble became sandstone, Seria looked bewildered at what was happening. It did not stop there... obelisks and temples rose from the sand, then great pyramids came into being.
This is what makes an Inner World so dangerous, because once it escapes the confinement of a person's mind... it can rewrite the World itself. This Skull can do just that, which labeled it as an object capable of destroying the World.
A world of sand and glory.
Well... let's add more.
"Argent... Overdrive."
The white halo flickered into existence, the Rose Compasses appeared in my eyes.
"Come Forth, Argent World of Chalk."
The sand and chalk mixed in together, becoming a land of white and gold. Then the buildings of chalk rose and fell for eternity, the silver gears in the sky began to rotate.
This is what I will use to deal with the Records of Nature.
I stare at Seria with a thin smile. The Witch who protected America since the beginning...
You will make a fine test subject.
"Uh... can we talk this over?", Seria seem reluctant now.
"Nope~", I happily answered.
