Future Shock (Initial Project)

Vol. 3 Chapter 10

—Rost, Capital of the United Kingdom, Hours after The 'Wunderschlacht'—

"Say What now?" King Pluviam asked (in probably the most western tone feasible in this world) as he takes in the Information a senior hunter-scout. Knowing him for 10 years, he barely lied, and is brutally truthful.

"Yes, Your Majesty, we have received a message that the Empire's Resurrected has been captured by the Directorate, and their own sIron wyverns decimated his army."

"That's... That's preposterously impossible! History has already stated that only a Resurrected one can be on par with another-" the prince yelled, until he abruptly stopped, and he slowly turned his head towards Lynette who sat in her seat, with a dead-giveaway nervous expression.

"*inhale* Dear sister... Have you-... Have you not been telling me something?" He said with a bit of an intimidating tone.

"Well perhaps, I mean their full power most likely dealt with the Resurrected one-"

"Every single army and military in this world has proved time and time again nothing other than an equal or significantly more powerful force can defeat a Male Resurrected one! And a stronger and potentially equal force is either another Male Resurrected one, or the Gods! How can the directorate even-!?"

"They are not bound by this world's basic understanding, Ben. The combined power of their forces can easily overwhelm a Resurrected one fairly quickly."

"But that's-!"

"Calm down, Benedict. Listen, Without the Resurrected one to give the empire a boost in might and image, they are no longer as powerful now, and with that army decimated, the United Kingdom is no longer under threat of being surrounded.

"Your majesty, You are wrong on that part." A northern noble spoke

"We are surrounded, only by two threats instead of one, This... Directorate is as much of a threat of our sovereignty and existence." He continued said

"Actually, we have already established a close alliance with them, they will not be our enemy." Lynette answered

"But will they uphold it your highness, for all we know they could be as barbaric as the empire." The northerner expressed his disbelief.

"Are you doubting my choices?" She said in an intimidating tone, before she continued.

"It's true that we don't know much, but I pay attention to every other detail. And They said it themselves, they are not conquerors, They are creators. I'am more than positive they will uphold this alliance, we are a superpower after all."

"Your majesty." A man in a Wyvern corps uniform entered the throne room.

"The Directorate has chosen to delay the meeting, they say they are to 'recuperate' after this unprecedented attack, and they say they are also trying to conduct safety measures with the captured Resurrected one."

"Really...?"

———Reichian Empire———

The Reichian Empire was in Chaos, with the 'death' of its Resurrected one which was its driving force, their new weapons of war were dwindling severely. However the emperor managed to uplift the hearts of the people, regarding this matter. Stating that even without the Resurrected one, they have been given the remainders of his might, which are essentially the confidential stockpile of resources and the active industrial Factories, which allowed them to continue production.

Their technology level was around the steampunk level, however they have been mostly limited, Steam-driven aircraft are undergoing engineering and testing from the prototype blueprints of a Leo's 'Plane', and the majority of their army are still armed with swords, shields, and spears. With Major Forces used for the spearhead and propaganda are armed with muskets.
