Episode 82

"So..in conclusion, we now had the protections of an Ancient Dragon..in exchange for sheltering his Kin?..". (Elijah)

"Yes..you should have our side ready for the Dragonkin...I tell him to hurried his people to come in before the next year...Just treat them the same as any citizen..".

I revealed the news after the meeting with Griksu'um were done, the old Dragon already left to his new hill and probably mention the news to his people. Apparently, Elijah had deployed the entire Army to My mansion, but the Protective magic shield was cast by the old dragon that encompassed the whole mansion preventing them.

At first, everyone was worried about me, but after explaining everything, whole Aeternum back to normal, Elijah and the ladies were also delighted with the unforeseen fortune. Apparently having a dragon as an ally was a big thing, In the end, everything is great.

"Mina, is there any movement from the Church?…".

"There's isn't..they are still busy protecting their capital..they will be busy at least for 5 months…beside, I already put 24/7 monitor on their developments..every messenger they sent out already being cut off by our special forces…". (Mina)

Mina showed me the reports, the church call for help had all been successfully intercepted.

"Thanks to our Broadcasting radio..we also managed to convince the public that, the church was doing just fine…their image already fall, all the neighboring kingdoms already tried to cull the church influence..also, it seems that King Robert of Hallerus..were getting restless, since his plan has failed, Duke Mericca also has been publicly supporting his brother in law..the crown Prince to denounce King Roberth…..also Duchess Marriane also expressing that she needs our support in their effort..". (Elijah)

Right now the balance of power already started to tilt, previously all the kingdoms power struggle involving the Church. Every single one that has been in coalitions with the church in their search for power who previously seems to be winning now was held back, Of course, those who didn't, see this as small windows of hope to turn the tide to their favor.

Needless to say, my actions already affected all the kingdoms in Central Continents. Though everything seems calm at the surface, I'm sure in the following years a lot of coup de tat and civil wars will be happening. And as all of this was happening Aeternum will be ignored, giving me time to further enhanced and develop Aeternum Strength.

"Mina keep doing what you're doing…Elijah do provide the Duchess what she needs, but keep it under secret for now, perhaps tried to sway public opinions using the radios...Rafaela how about the Healing Potions progress?..".

"Everything is in schedule...The R&D Department already finish the finished prototype for the Potions Making machinery….here's the blueprint's and the materials it needs…..just like you ordered, it's already being revised by Sebastian…". (Rafaela)

Rafaela sends the files to my Tablet as she said it, and to be honest I was impressed by it. The Goblin Brothers and the Mole clan certainly worked hard for it. Since I was going to be needed a large amount of Healing Potions to be brought over to Earth, Doing it manually by hand with the amount of Potioneers/ Alchemist I had in hand was never feasible in any way possible, because Bar is the only certified Alchemist I had, whilst the other's at R&D Alchemy Department was mainly his helper/Trainee.

The Process in Making a Potions are similar to Refining and combining Medications on Earth, so in the aspect of creating any apparatus nor machinery by using Earth Modern technology was 100% possible. The only main problem was Making any kind of potion needs mana, Mana/Magic Energy need to be a presence in making a potion, Alchemist/Potioners need to slowly infuse their Mana in each step of the process to make sure the all the ingredients don't lose their magical energy properties and at the same time containing and combining that energy from leaking out.

If the mana weren't being infused in the process of Potions making, the results will only have 2 outcomes, 1 the end product will only be the lowest rank potions with a contain of 5-10% magical energy that its potency doesn't even reach 50% of what the potions supposed to be, or 2 the end product will only be a paste of useless garbage. The percentage of this outcome will happen was result 1 is 40% while result 2 is 60%, which to me is very high, and I can't afford nor that I willing to accept such possibilities. Still, I need the potions, and the only way that I can get it a lot and fast was to industrialize it.

The Blueprint in my hand, Thanks to T.A.S renditions have solved the problem of mana infusing, the Normal Rank Potions Maker V1 will be made entirely with Earth modern engineering with a combination of special Magic Enchantment from Fantasma, and to make full automation possible, the machines will be using a mana stone/ Beast core as its mana infusing core and electricity as it's power unit. It also needs only one person with mana controlling abilities to observe and handle the machine.

I probably have solved the shortage of Potions in Fantasma on my way to rake money from Earth. If other Alchemists knew I've done this they probably going to wage war against me.

"Great job Rafaela..you can give the R&D some bonus later...Also, Andrea opened up a new land on the west..we need to start opening our farm..".

"Understood Sir..but I will still need the new people for that to happen, I will arrange it as soon as I get them….also, our commerce department needs more transportations to deliver the goods to our 2 new Aeternum Superstore…I already had to divide our current vehicles just to provide the 3 routes…if it continues like this we were only able to get half the usual profits….". (Andrea)

With concerns looks, Andrea looks at me and hands over her tablet.

"Hmm…okay, don't worry I will handle this…".

Just like that, the important part of the meeting has been addressed, and for another 2 hours, we only discussed some small issues and finally ended our weekly meetings. That night, as usual, I visited Elijah and tell her I will be leaving for my usual 'Business Meeting with the Higher-ups'.
