The Mechanical Era

This novel is currently undergoing a rewrite. Expect a lot of change from the previous version of the novel. Synopsis: In a fantasy world ruled by kings and queens possessing great magical power, Kant Icurus Maybale is the only prince on the Aceaton Continent who does not possess magic. However, what he does possess, that nobody else does, is his past memories of the time when he was a Mechanical Engineer on Earth. With nothing but knowledge, brains, and wisdom, he dares to bring this medieval-esque fantasy world into the industrial era, and gain unimaginable wealth and power. Along the way, powerful forces that feel threatened by his rise in dominance will do whatever it takes to bring him down! Will he be able to conquer the continent, and potentially the world, to usher in a new age, or will he get crushed by the existing world order?

Interviewing Carl I. Anastasia (3)

A couple of dozen minutes have passed since the interview had started. Kant had asked Carl a lot of questions. Some he prepared, and some he made up on the spot. All to which, Carl gave a satisfactory answer. However, not all was good.

As the secession progressed, Kant noticed a few things while he questioned and interviewed the candidate. Whenever he asks Carl a question from his list, Carl will provide a very long and detailed answer to it. However, when he asked a question that is his own, his answers were much shorter.

It was an observation that tingled Kant's suspicion. He started to wonder whether it was related to the other things; his missing pen, someone opening his drawer without his permission, as well as the rather attractive maids with a dodgy past that have been recently hired at his castle. Could all of them be connected?

"Are there any more questions you have for me, sir?" Carl asked Kant with a gentle, innocent smile on his face.
