It took me almost 3 months to settle the things regarding of the kids with higher mana. Almost one-fifth of the 6 years older kids this year had high mana. How they were born I don’t know. But we can’t stop anymore. I had already sent the order to kill them. And now is finally time to travel to that “kingdom” that now are called “Lost palace”. I don’t know what happened there. But it looks like it was unexpected, and the reports said it wasn’t conquered it was destroyed, and the nobles that had seen the place after some time started to imagine who might have done that. It was said that the king himself was gathering troops to march to a city they wanted to capture. But to where… no one really know. I would need to gather info about that too.
I had prepared everything My oldest son, Nicolas, would need in this travel through the human realm. A carriage, the supplies they would need, personal guards, some archers and a slave. He is a half breed between two different species of beastmen, a tiger and a lion. And his fur had purple color. I had bought him in an action, I had payed a good sum for him when he was a puppy. He has good speed and power so if needed they can sent him to protect the little caravan. But with my crest, a red spider, no one would dare to touch them.
40 of my most trusted men would travel with him. He needs to learn how to control them when the time arrives. And I had given him orders too. They would go with that team and some birds that were trained to return with messages. That way he wouldn't need to travel back before he sees what happened there.
"Nicolas, I'm waiting the greatest of the surprises. Tell me everything you find on that place, and if it is wrecked as the reports we received. Wait for my orders there. Don't act recklessly." He had already reached adulthood, but as the oldest he need to act as role model to his brothers. "From you I just wait success." I said grabbing his shoulders. "Eyes open on the slave. If he tries anything don't feel pity of him. Punish him." He nods to me.
"I shall bring honor to our house, father." He always wanted a way to prove that he could govern this kingdom, and with this chance I think he will gain enough experience.
"You may go now." He bows to me and without waiting he jumps on the carriage going to west. Now I just need to wait his report.
Nicolas PoV
My father had gave me this mission so that I could prove myself. This may not be a normal mission of recognition. It was the find and gather information.
Walking in a straight would take 3 months, but we go stopping in some cities to gather some info about what that stupid king wanted. Fin would never stay 3 steps after me.

Father had bought him when he was five or so the slaver said, and as he was a year younger then me, father made him be my first slave and he used him to “train” me in how to handle them. I learned how to give the punishment needed and to judge when give it. It is strange that all of brothers would have the same fate as me after that year… and it will probably happen on the future generations too, because the early you learn the early you can have your own group of slaves and guards.
It took us 4 months to reach the place where the city would be. And what I can see is just ruins! And on all the cities we stopped some noble would say that they had been here in a week, and when they had come back a week later it had already be destroyed. I had asked if he knew about any survivors of the attack, he said in all this time no one appeared in any city, so it looked like they had all died on this attack. I was dumbfounded how it is possible to decimate a city within a week and without any survivors? And in all cities that happened.
“We’re going to stay in the ruins for some time! I need to send a message to my father!” I tell all the men my father left in my command. They all salute and start to prepare the camp as I enter the carriage and write the things I had found.
Father, I talked with all kind of people in our way to the “Lost Palace” and all of them had the same kind of story. It looks like this city vanished within a week. The time premeditated by some of the nobles that had traveled to this place and had come back to find it in complete ruins. I asked it they had found somethings with valor and they said that that what they found was nothing more than a few pieces of silver and rarely a piece of gold or jewel. I had asked to see it too and it everything they could salvage was minimal. It looks like that the party destroyed the place and took what they wanted after that.
I finish my report and write it four more times. I set that five birds would fly back and we will wait for three weeks. If nothing is back we will repeat it. We had brought 20 birds, so I can use them before needing to go back. We sent the five birds, one after waiting for 30 minutes from the before. This way they will not be caught together and probably one of them will get alive in our kingdom.
We get an answer after three weeks. One of the birds had come back.
Nicolas, gather your men and see if you can discover any mark near the region. It was already long in the past but if this city was destroyed like that something heavy have to had a hand in it… If it was magic we can’t say who did it. Just look for some clues, it may be hidden but with the eyes of the archers and your own slave you can find them.
I gave them the orders that my father had transmitted to me. My man had already looked through the city in this three weeks we were waiting and had found nothing. So today we are going to look around the city, we need to find any piece that we can use to find who or what attack this place.

“Prince Nicolas! I think we had found it!” One archer yell after we look for two weeks. It was a tedious process and we needed to work together to not lose any kind of information the other would have found.
“What do you guys have found?” I go to them and what I see is nothing… just a piece of dirty with some grass growing. “Are you joking with me? We had already looked here and now that we look back a new piece of information suddenly appear?” I was already bored! All we did was for nothing! We just randomly find some surprises and I’m sure that not all the people we inquired about this place revealed everything they had seen or found.
“No, Your Highness, this place is the clue we wanted. This is a footprint, we had thought it was nothing more than a place that was digged. But when we look close we can see that it is newer than what we had thought. It was done before we came to this place!” The archer said. But what would leave such a footprint.
“Let’s gather everything and use this thing to lead our way. This was the only clue we found in this place!” We gather everything and we move forward to the unforeseen future.
Lilith PoV
It had already passed 4 months that I had turned in Y’allaer’s wife and it just got better… Lucky me that I don’t need to get recharged anymore. Because he wants to do it every single night! But sometimes I can beat him senseless before he start doing what he wants. It’s really annoying to have a horny husband like him… but he can sure surprise me. He can get really creative when he wants, he settled the mood using the Gondo to reproduce some kind of music. Probably he got it from the Demon Party, but it was surprisingly good…
But when we were entering the 5th month my Programmers got a different reading from a Mechatronic. the signal looked old and incomplete, so I worked with some of them to hack the motherboard to see what was it and I finally get a hold on how to find the lost tech of my race! It was a mecha like the one we did for the Demon Lord, and they the program of the motherboard looked so old that I wondered how they used it. But who am I to say it? I loved that they didn’t try to improve it to defend against the skills of my hackers!
In a few seconds we had already entered their said network. It was really easy and I started to download every project they had created after the collapse of my race! All the archives I had lost, some new weapons and stuff that we could use to implement the humans and even my own husband!
It was so simple to create the Synthoids and the Automatas!!! And how I never thought about it until now? Synthoids are Constructs with a Clockwork body, but with small gears to increase its power. The Automata core is easy to create to, just need to fed some motherboards and wires to a mana crystal, it need to be nearly 10 cm in diameter. The other things we got was how to creates other types of steel using the cores we gathered while mining. Some of their tech were old and we had already created a better one. Like the plating I have made to my body. The weapons were so varied that I thought it was impossible to create such quantity and how they were precise. Their aim codes were strange and could be easily messed, so I messed a little with it. Now they would need to create it again. I finally could create all the pieces of my race! And using his own terminal I found how they found this place. The signals we emitted while using the Gondos could be intercepted with their communicators. It was so simple, that I just needed to change a few things and I made a false report telling that that robot had found nothing before cutting the connection and making a false one walk for a time. The signal would stop after traveling for four days.
The said dwarf was using an armor that looked like the one we gave to Demon Lord Hysterya. We got the pictures after sending some flying drones. It used to much pieces and the gears were larger than the ones we are using now. They sounded like they were old and some had to be replaced, they really need to maintain their Mecha body. Well, let’s just kill it and steal it to study.
“I’m heading off. I want to test my lasts upgrades.” I had put some circuits on my back that would create wings when I fed my mana to them. I scanned Y’allaer’s wings and with his description of how they worked I could create them to myself and now I could fly like him.
I head out of the town after more than 2 years staying blocked to go out because of the Moon Crystals. But now they had already been completed and I had created my own fighting style.
Drones Ruby and Sapphire. It’s time to enter combat mode.
The drones float beside me and Ruby start to change to a cylindrical form that would change to some set forms programed before. It had a lance form, some guns form and a gauntlets form. Sapphire would be the defensive one. It had the pieces to work as shield to both mana and physical attacks. The blue drone had formed a small ball so that it could change form easily.
It was so easy to spot him! He was a two days distance from my city, and with my flying ability I get to him in a few hours.
His armor was a little old and have some dents and scratches. In the middle of the chest he had a cockpit made with crystalline front, so that way he could see what was before him.
I land before the robot I had hacked to find the last pieces of technology I needed to finally finish the last parts of the race. Synthoids would be perfect to use as Royal Guards and the Automatas to be ‘nobles’.
“You must be happy to be killed by the Queen of the Mechatronics. I came here to finish you after we had hacked your server and gather the lost knowledge I couldn’t remember after all the years I was sleeping.” I make a small bow before engaging in this battle.
