Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts - Chapter 1243: Eleren
Chapter 1243: Eleren
“It can be researched… No, it has to be researched. Call Mae right now!” Melissa demanded.
Vivian didn’t say it, but her eyes wanted it as well.
Nathan chuckled. Obviously, Mae didn’t know about it. He was the one who knew photocopy machines and printers.
However, as with most people from Earth, he definitely knew how it worked but not how it was made.
In his mind, those machines were already modern, so he couldn’t copy them. Still, in some stories, there was something similar to those machines. It could be considered a primitive type.
Nathan didn’t have the blueprints or the entire system in his mind, but he still had a bit of its concept.
Nathan explained, “If I recall correctly, it’s something about making metals or any type of materials, whether it’s wood or mineral, and polishing them in a way they structure a word. Do that again and again and create a massive machine.
“The building process might be hard, but once it’s done, you can basically print books quickly.”
“!!!” Vivian widened her eyes as if she understood what Nathan was talking about. “I see. That can be done. But instead of a word, it’s better to be made of a single character. This way, we can reuse them by repositioning the characters.
“And because it’s meant to be made in a batch, the characters shouldn’t be too hard to make, since we can just make a mold of that character.
“The hardest part is making the machine itself. Maybe like a spinning wheel? This way, there will be a section filled with ink as well as the blank paper section. With just a single spin, the entire page will be printed…
“This sounds feasible. I know a thing or two, but my expertise is not here. Still, if we bring this concept to a master blacksmith like Elder Thompson… No, not him. He has his hands full with the magic weapon… Anyway, we should be able to make it.”
“Rather than asking those master blacksmiths, since we’re going to stay here for some time, why don’t we ask the blacksmith here to develop that thing? Neyeid must have enough money to invest in them.”
“That’s genius! When we return, we can print them and spread them. This way, even if someone steals something, they will steal a copy. And it’s not like making a copy is hard. As long as we set them properly, it’s worthless.” Melissa’s eyes brightened.
Nathan agreed. This was necessary if he wanted to go to war with the black cell.
Vivian added, “If we put the printing machine in mind, the plan will have to change. How about introducing the manual to the magic tower? And if we can somehow prepare a lot of books before that, we can probably spread the knowledge right away.
“This way, we don’t have to fight against thieves. Of course, powerful manuals should be kept secret.”
Nathan nodded. “Sounds good to me. In that case, I guess I will have to ask you to prepare the concept. I will ask Neyeid about it.”
Melissa clicked her tongue. This wasn’t her field, so she didn’t know anything about it. Vivian had to work alone.
“Alright. You can leave it to me,” Vivian assured him.
“They might forget about this, but Nathan…” Bella, who was silent the whole time, finally opened her mouth. “…the person who introduced the fragment of summoning was called Francis Eleren. He was someone from the empire who married the first princess of the dynasty of that era.
“Even though he stayed in the dynasty for the remainder of his life, he still had a family back in the empire.
“And that family remained strong. They might have some insight from the original founder themselves.”
“Is there a family called Eleren in the empire?” Nathan raised his eyebrows, not expecting this piece of information.
“Yes. In fact, they were a duke family, with two summoners at the crystal fusion stage.”
“Seriously?” Nathan didn’t expect a family to have two crystal fusion stage summoners. It was the same as having two world class summoners in their family.
However, if this were true, then this family might be harboring some secrets. While he wasn’t that interested in their secret, he wanted to know whether the creator actually had the information about the hidden alien.
Yes, Vivian and the others suspected the alien hidden on this continent was involved in that creation, and Nathan couldn’t help but feel suspicious.
“This is the basic information. It looks like you are going there…”
“They might have a relationship with the hidden alien on this continent. We have to find that alien, so I have no choice.” Nathan shrugged.
He skimmed the documents while muttering, “Let’s see. The current head is one of the crystal fusion stage summoners. His strength is among the top ten in the empire, but the scarier part is the fact that the other crystal fusion stage summoner is rumored to be stronger than him.
“However, their relationship is not very good despite being brother and sister. Because the family often discredits her, she is known to be ranked 10th in the empire, but her power and battle style are so unique that it won’t be weird for her to win against a few people in the top ten ranking.” Nathan smiled wryly. “Really?”
Bella shrugged. “Her name is Luna Eleren. If you want to approach the family or learn something about them, you might want to meet her first rather than going straight to the family.
“There are a couple of rumors about what happened between the two of them, but one of them was because they thought she was a cursed child.”
“Cursed?”
“Yes. Unlike anyone in this world, everything about her is white. Her hair, her eyebrows, her eyes, and even her skin were pale white.”
Nathan was a bit astonished. ’I feel like I have heard about it somewhere… Don’t tell me, this woman is not cursed but has that genetic? What’s it called again? Albino?’
“Either way, if someone knows about the secret of the family and might have less resistance in talking about it, it might be her.”
“So… where is she?”
