Chapter 844: Mira's Bomb



The girls walked out of the meeting tent and Isdis sighed, "We'll, it seems they'll stop for the time being. But that's only under pressure, I'm sure that stupid king would break the treaty if The got a chance."

"We can't have him charge after we leave." Eris looked around, "Should I blast a crater in their way? That might scare them away."

"I could leave some demons as well." Merida looked at Isdis and then turned toward their carriage, "Those two are at it again." She could see Mira and Merlin giggling as they tried to compact stone with magic, they were using poor Meryem as a test subject.

"It's heavy..." Meryem growled, unable to move inside the stone armor. It was a full plate armor made of compressed stone that weighed several thousand kilograms, the joints didn't work, and it didn't even have holes for eyes, a rectangular prototype just as a proof of concept. "What are you testing exactly?" Meryem growled.

"We want to know if we can communicate with magic and if the curse is indeed blocked or not." Merlin replied.

Mira looked at the hole they left for air and then stuck a crystal beside them, "It seems that even a small hole can allow the curse to enter, we should find a way to completely lock this armor while still allowing the wearer to move, breathe, and see if possible."

"I can create a compressed air vessel and attach it to the back, for vision we can use a mage's eye and some flat crystals stuck before the eyes. But the problem is moving, this thing is far too heavy."

"If I can't move it." Meryem growled, "Nobody can."

"Arad might be able to." Mira smiled.

"Like he would need this thing!" Meryem cried.

"Meryem is right. We need to find a way to make it lighter, gravity magic is an option, but we can't keep active from a huge distance." Merlin scratched her head.

"You can start by adding some joins." Meryem sighed.

"I did... But, they do as good as not exist with how heavy this armor is." Merlin scratched her head, "For now, let's get you out." She flicked her fingers and teleported Meryem outside the

armor.

"You also need to work on getting in and out; it's also too hot inside."

Isdis, Eris, and Merida approached them, "We've finished the negotiation and got a temporary truce." Isdis sighed, "I doubt this would last."

"What's the major problem?" Betty asked as she looked out of the carriage's window.

"The stupid king is too greedy. We're trying to convince him that going to the desert would only get his army wiped out, and he wants us to pay him land so he won't charge." Isdis shook her head as she sat on the ground, "We don't have anything too big for him so he would bend down."

"Like what?" Betty looked at Eris and Merida, "You can intimidate him."

"That doesn't always work, and I'd rather not build a relation that would cause us a war in the future." Isdis looked at Betty... "What would Arad do if he was here?"

"About the name." Aella looked at them with a smile, "For now, we'll call Uranus's spark. But later, we'll call it Mira's bomb. I bet it'll be a powerful artifact."

"Wait? Let's just call it Uranus's bomb." Mira gasped.

"It's your creation." Eris looked at her, "I'm sure Arad would also want you to keep the credit

for it."

Tempo nodded, "Now that I'm thinking about it. A weapon of mass destruction capable of erasing a small kingdom and cursing the land, I want some for our military." He looked at

Mira.

"Yeah..."Aella scratched her head. "If this information spreads out, kingdoms are going to fight over Mira."

"Isn't Merlin helping?" Isdis looked at them.

"I'm only using earth magic based on her calculations and needs. Any wizard worth their salt can replace me." Merlin looked at them, "That's her creation."

"I..." Mira looked at them with a worried and scared face, "Don't want this to be used as a

weapon."

"I doubt it." Tempo shook his head, "I'll throw one or two around to show their power and scare people off, and I'll keep the rest as an intimidation." He pointed at the mountain, "We're doing the same here."

"Yeah. Scare them with the first shot, and threaten them with another." Betty giggled.

"See that?! If you don't behave, I'll throw one on your heads." Merida shook her fist.

"Fine." Mira sighed, "Just, don't go blasting people left and right. Keep in mind that whatever this bomb could do... Arad can do more."

Tempo laughed, "Don't worry; I don't want you to send Arad to blast us for using this weapon

the wrong way."

"Then let's get to work." Merlin walked with Arad behind the carriage to make the bomb while Meryem dug underground toward her children. Betty started stretching and getting ready to plant the bomb while Aella flew away to measure the wind's speed and direction.

Eris sat alone to focus on her magic in case she needed to shield the place and Merida kept guarding the carriages with Tempo. The plan [Intimidation Bomb] was set in motion.

As the girls began to move in silence, the king also had plans of his own. For a starter, he sent

a messenger back to the capital which was almost an hour's ride from their location. But, he didn't know what a nasty surprise awaited him.
