5 Accepting the proposal and negotiation (2)

If he wish annex him, he just need to sell this information to one of the 3 guardian clans, then wealth and power is just waiting for him. With enough scheming he can become king if he wishes.

She asked in cautious voice,

-What do you want Mr Ranga?

-Well, what I want your majesty? I want to offer the knowledge I posses to you your majesty. I wish to see the home of my ancestor, my home prosper again.

She felt confused. She asked for a price and this person in front of her is giving it away. Just like that? So, she asked,

-And?

-And!? I can bring weapons and technologies form the other world, if you want. It shall be hectic undertake, but it can be done.

-Ohh, sounds interesting. What is these weapon and technologies that you speak about. Are they superior to this world?

-Then may I ask, what kind of weapon your army use your majesty?

-huhhh? Okay, the infantry uses shields and spears. so does the cavalry except for shields. For protection they use lather armor. Knights use swords and shields. For protection they use plate armor, chain-mail armor or scale-mail armor. Battle mages use dragon skin armor and weapon of there choice. We trying to get our hands on some 'magic weapon' as we currently have only 3. Do you want to elaborate about other equipment?

Ranga was surprised to hear the term 'magic weapon' as in his world they couldn't weaponize mana no matter what they tried. If they infuse mana in a lifeless object it would disperse. Only his clan member could make an object hold mana for limited amount of time and that is too for a very limited time. But as he is in a negotiation he chose to hold back his curiosity for now. But from queen's word, he can guess that even in this world they are special existence as the kingdom itself only posses 3. Showing a smile he said,

-No need your majesty. I have a rough idea now. What if I told you, in our world, we posses weapons that can take down 100 of enemies from miles away, even our foot soldiers posses weapon with which they would be able to take down hundred of soldiers of this world standards. We possess siege weapons powerful enough which can take down castle wall of this wall in mere seconds. What would you think of that?

-I would think you are telling me fairy tale. Even magic cannot achieve what you described.

-What if I say, we posses weapons that can fly in the air, kill enemies on the ground from height of tens of miles. It can fly in enemy territories and destroy there fortifications in minutes.

-I shall still say it is fairy tale. Even if I consider what you say exists, if a kingdom gets its hand on such terrible weapons, the whole continent shall go beneath it's feet. Tell me Mr Agni. Does your kingdom rules the whole continent in the other world?

-No your majesty, that's not the case, because every country possess this kind of weapons. So everyone can keep check of everyone. But my country still is hegemony of the continent because of our family's invention of Magic Enhanced soldiers.

-What do you mean by Magic enhanced soldier?

-It's just as the name suggests, they are soldiers enhanced by magic, in short called MES. They can stronger, faster, more durable, has more stamina, can heal very fast, can use magic in combat. For your understanding, a normal MES has it's all parameter 10 times that of a normal human soldier.

.

Chaya's face paled hearing this. This shall totally break the power balance of the continent. She asked in a low voice as if someone would hear them even though they are in silence barrier,

-Can you prove any of the claim you presented?

-You see it is impossible for a single man to prove such a thing who is summoned without any notice. If I had time to prepare for a day, I could prove them all to you. But worry not I could give you a very simple demonstration now. Though it shall not prove of all I claimed, it shall give you a surface level understanding of weapon of our world.

-You can!!!

-Yes, your majesty. Is there any guard whom you can believe with your life and state level secret such as these? If there is, call one.

She thought for a moment then dispelled the barrier and rang the bell on the table two times. The guard called Tripa came inside and said,

-Yes your majesty.

She cast the silence barrier spell again and said,

-Tripa, can I trust you?

He was surprised at sudden question, then he knelt and said,

-My life is yours your majesty.

-Good what is about to happen, you shall take it with you in your grave until I instruct otherwise. Is that clear?

-Yes, your majesty.

-Okay, do as Mr Ranga says.

-Your Majesty?

-That's an edict.

-Yes, your majesty.

He face Ranga. Ranga looked at him after observing him for a few moments he said,

-Take of your arm guard.

Tripa took it off then offered it to Ranga. Ranga said,

-No need to give it to me. Tell me what is it made of?

-Best quality iron steel.

-Well, how many sword strike can it take before breaking?

-It can take 10-12 full force strike from sword on body, 2-3 on joints.

Ranga then took out a silvery colored knife from his trench coat. Tripa immediately went for sword on his waist but Chaya assured him,

-It's okay Tripa. He means no harm.

Tripa still looked at Ranga vigilantly. Ranga on the other hand gave the titanium bladed tactical knife to Tripa. He took it with a confused look. After giving it, Ranga said,

-Place your arm guard on table and stab it with the knife.

He again looked confused at the queen. When she gave a nod of approval he stabbed it in the middle and the knife went through it like it was butter. Both queen and her guard's jaw dropped at the ground. How can this slick looking knife stab through arm guard that can stop swords. Tripa knew more that the knife was exceptionally light. As if he could break it with his hands. At this moment Ranga continued,

-"Drag the knife to the end of it."

In his dazed state he did what he was told. Knife made screech sound cutting the arm guard easily and then went out of it, totally ruined. Tripa had a cold sweat on his back. If enemy had a sword made of the metal this knife made of, his top quality armor wont amount to shit in front of it. The armor would only hold him down with it's weight rather than giving protection. He couldn't help but ask,

-Is it, is it magic weapon?

Ranga gave a light smile,

-No, it is just a regular knife made of titanium alloy.

-What is titanium?

-A kind of metal.

-How much stronger is it than iron!? Where can we find it?

after asking the question he realized he asked something he shouldn't have. Even the queen has a gloomy expression at his question.

-Careful Tripa, know your limit.

She said. The guard knelt and apologized,

-Forgive this lowly one's insolence your majesty.

-Just continue what you are said to do.

-Yes your majesty.

Ranga said,

-Okay take off your armor.

Tripa did what he was told. But took a full minute as it was troublesome to handle plate armor by wearer. When he was done taking it off, Ranga said,

-Hold it up.

He help it in front of him. Ranga said,

-No, not in front, side ways, spread apart your legs a little more, tighten the grip to your limit. Yes, normally I would prefer a mannequin but we don't have time for that. Okay, don't let it go no matter what happens.

Saying that he took out his Remington 1911 R1 Enhanced then installed silencer(there wasn't any need of silencer as they were inside the barrier, but he did it anyway due to habit) and aimed it to the held armor. Both queen and her guard has a confused expression as what he would do with that weird looking metallic object. When he squeezed the trigger, muffled sound of gun shot rang in the room followed by metal getting punched sound. Due to shock, the armor slipped from Tripa's grip. He looked at armor on floor with horror. His prized armor has a finger sized hole in it. After a while when he pick up the armor he found that there was a hole at the same spot at the backside of the armor. His face ashed. The strongest crossbow would achieve such a feet from 10 meters yet that small thing did such thing from about 20 feet. Whats more frightening is he couldn't see what came out of that thing, he only saw small flash of light and a muffled sound. Ranga continued,

- This weapon here is called Pistol. A type of firearm. If you ask what firearm is,then gross definition is that it is a type of weapon that uses gunpowder propulsion to fire a projectile. I can go on all day with these definitions and descriptions and what not, but what you really need to is, if you define effective range as distance that a wielder can deliver a hit to a man sized target, then the maximum effective range for this weapon I am holding is about 1800 meters though in reality it is 100 meters for a normal human.

Queen took a big gulp and said,

-Is it possible to explain how far is 100 meters?

-If you tell me about your unit of distance than yes.

-The height of this table is 3 messen.

Ranga nonchalantly took of his belt, took the height with it. Took a estimated percentage of the total length compared to the belt, then wore back the belt. After calculation in his smart watch, he said,

-100 meters is about 300 messen. The calculation might be slightly off but the deviation wont be more than 2 messen.

Queen and the guard was already staring at him doing something to the small box attached to his left wrist, now when they heard the answer both of stayed silent for quite a while. The guard broke the silence first,

-Your majesty, this kind of weapon....

-I know, Tripen. You don't have to say it out loud. You can go now. Don't forget to handle the situation outside.

The guard bowed and left. When he left the queen asked,

-For some reason I think this is the weakest weapon among all those we spoke about.

-No, your majesty. There is no such thing as weak weapon or strong weapon. Only the right weapon for the right job.

The queen took a deep breath and said,

-I shall be frank with you. You have no obligation to show me these weapons, much less give these knowledge about them. Neither you had to tell me about your origin. You could simply keep them to your self and slowly take over the the power of the kingdom after marrying me. Why do you offer them to me? What do you want in return? If you want me to summon your family here, I shall have to disappoint you.

-No your majesty, I want no such thing, you can rest assure of that.

-Then what do you want?

-If I say, I fell in love with you the moment I saw you for your beauty, would you believe that?

Hearing that even though she froze for a moment and then blushed, she still said,

-That would be too far fetched.

-Huhhhh, you are right that would too far fetched. What I want in return for these weapons is revenge.

-What?

-Yes, my brother was killed in conspiracy by the king in other world! I want you to invade and annex that kingdom and wipe out it's royal family from existence.

Chaya frowned at this and said,

-You know that I only capable of summoning one person from the other world and vice-versa, right?

-What if I find you way to invade?

She was taken aback then. She said,

-Even if you do, What you are asking is going to war when we have just recently ended it and recuperating. How can I put my subject in harm's way for your vengeance?

-Think about it carefully your majesty. In return you get weapons and technology never seen in this world, you shall rule the whole world alone. Okay, let's forget about world domination, you will be able to protect the kingdom alone, no one shall be able threat your position on the throne as long as royal family has these. You won't have to rely on those greedy nobles a single bit. Also, you don't have to do it right now. Doing it after the kingdom is fully prepared would suffice.

-Okay but invading the other world. You said they have the same weapons. So, how can you be so sure of winning?

-Because you would have better quality MES. Don't forget their MES is trained by my family. So, we have our own connection in their government system.

-Just to have revenge, you shall sell out the country you grew up in?

-Even though I grew up there, this is my real home.

-But the guardian clans wont support this endeavor. This is a loss project. The kingdom shall suffer serious loss economically, on the ground that you shall find a way to do that.

-Would you have to listen to them if you had these weapons. As for loss, the whole kingdom's wealth is there for your taking, how can that be a loss project? You don't even have go there yourself, you just order and it shall be done. (Author note: What kind of bullshit is our MC spouting? I don't even care any more. If the queen doesn't see through this, she shall be the dumbest queen of history)

Chaya stayed silent for a while then asked,

-So, you agree to marry me. You shall give me power and knowledge. In return, you want me to avenge your brother. Is that correct?

-Yes your majesty.

-Okay, let me think for a while. In the meantime, make yourself comfortable here.
