Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure - Chapter 2040: Not surprised anymore

Chapter 2040: Not surprised anymore
“It’s just one thing after another isn’t it?”
That was the expression that was on the faces of all the racial alliance representatives when this meeting was called to order.
Though the method hadn’t been disclosed, most of them had already figured that whatever was happening here was related to me. At the same time, they could most likely guess that I was the direct cause of this.
Which was why they weren’t really surprised anymore.
The better way to describe the looks on their faces was exasperated.
However, that didn’t mean that they weren’t interested in what I was offering them.
“How many can you provide?” One of the representatives from the smaller countries asked this question.
As soon as this was asked, many other representatives from similar sized countries also seemed to perk up as they waited for the answer to this question.
After all, this was an important question for these smaller countries.
Unlike the larger countries that had their own methods of dealing with the forces of Destruction, these smaller countries just simply didn’t have the same powerful items that they had.
They couldn’t fight back against the forces of Destruction in the same way as those larger countries.
As such, it was only natural that they would want these weapons to protect themselves with.
“We’re still working on it. We don’t know how much we can produce yet, so we’ll tell you when the time comes.” I said without giving them a real answer.
This wasn’t just an attempt to stop them from asking these questions, it was the truth.
It was simply that we were still testing different methods of production.
One of those methods was for me to leave some divine energy with Queenie and have her take care of it.
I found that I was able to infuse my divine energy into Queenie because of the contract that we had formed. With that divine energy, she was able to use part of it along with her own divine energy to fill the molds.
The divine energy that filled the molds would work the same way as if I was controlling it, so I didn’t even have to be there to take care of this matter. As long as I left things to Queenie, she would be able to set up a production line all on her own.
Though it certainly wasn’t something that she wanted to be stuck doing.
Before leaving to come to this meeting, I had already heard quite a few complaints coming from her.
Still as long as she had the right motivation, she was willing to do a bit of work.
At the same time, I could tell that she was thinking about giving this work to the bugs that she commanded.
But that was still a process that had to be tested since we had no idea if it would work or not.
That was why I really couldn’t give an answer right now.
The representatives of the smaller countries naturally weren’t satisfied with this answer since it was a matter of national security for them, but they also knew that they couldn’t push me.
They were aware of the difference in status between us in the racial alliance, plus I was the only one that could do these things. As such, they really couldn’t say anything to me.
“We’ll abstain from the first batch and send them to the smaller countries first.” The representative from the Holy Empire gave this proposal.
It didn’t take long for the representatives from the other empires and the larger kingdoms to agree with this.
They knew about the difference in strength between them and the smaller countries, so they were willing to support those smaller countries.
However, there was one outlier in this matter.
The Solar Kingdom that had once been quite agreeable to all things that I had proposed was no longer as agreeable. They were the only large country that didn’t agree to this and requested their allotment as per the rules of the racial alliance.
It was clear that there was more going on under the surface, but no one addressed this in the end.
After all, what they were requesting was still within the normal terms of the racial alliance agreement, so it wasn’t as if anyone could actually object to this.
However, it was clear that many people weren’t happy with the way that the Solar Kingdom was acting.
I could guess why they were doing this, but at the same time…I knew the situation that they were in. It was only a matter of time before something happened to the natural prosperity that they enjoyed, so it was also them trying to defend themselves.
Putting that issue aside, everything else went quite smoothly.
In fact, it went too smoothly.
That was all because there had been nothing going on during this time.
“Are there still no signs of the forces of Destruction?”
This was the last topic that was brought up at this meeting and the moment that it was brought up, there were looks of dismay that appeared on everyone’s face.
This was clearly a topic that they didn’t want to discuss because there wasn’t anything to discuss, which was the problem.
Since what happened last time, it was as if the forces of Destruction had completely disappeared.
If it wasn’t the fact that we knew that it was only a matter of time before they attacked again, everyone would have thought that this matter was all over. It was as if the forces of Destruction had completely disappeared from the face of this world.
“Make sure to keep an eye out for them and we’ll keep searching for them.” I said with a sigh in the end.
The other representatives agreed to this, but it was obvious that they weren’t optimistic of the results.
The longer that the forces of Destruction hid themselves, the more unsettling it was.
No one knew what they were building up their power for…
