Lord of Training - Chapter 115



Only Krnovel

115. The dwarf was a dwarf.

“I see it over there.”

Where Major Phelps pointed, a large building and a village were visible.

Where there used to be only a dozen or so small houses here, there are now hundreds of well-built log cabins.

‘Wow! The dwarf’s dexterity is great!’

We got off in front of a large building.

This was the dwarf’s temporary palace.

And then, just as I was about to leave the building, a familiar face emerged.

“Welcome! Alain Bombard!”

“It’s been a while. Armin Woolard.”

The young King Armin, who had not yet grown a beard, welcomed me warmly.

“It seems like the village has grown quite a bit.”

“We’ve finished building the buildings here. Now this will be the center, and we’ll expand out to open up towns and mines in all directions.”

“Why don’t you build it in one place like a human city?”

“Dwarves don’t normally live in one place in large numbers. If they did, they wouldn’t be able to develop mines and would be eliminated.”

“Oh, I see.”

As expected, they are hard-working dwarves.

“Do you need any supplies?”

“Food and supplies are periodically delivered to the foot of the mountain by Lord Belief.”

“If you need anything else, please let the lord know and he will provide it for you.”

“I am always grateful. Thank you.”

Armin was a polite king.

Because I didn’t even know he was the king before and treated him comfortably, I still omit the title.

“Dwarves are short.”

Iris stood next to Armin and measured his height against his own.

I was startled for a moment.

“Iris, then excuse me.”

“Haha! It’s okay.”

Humans were similar to elves in appearance, except for their height and pointy ears, but dwarves seemed to find them strange because they had large faces and bodies but short limbs.

“Excuse me, where is Elder Tar Urad?”

“It will be at the Orbital Gigant Training Grounds.”

“Can I see you now? I have some good news.”

“Oh! Then let’s go together.”

We climbed onto the horsepower truck.

The dwarves built the roads because they knew the convenience of horsepower trucks.

“Huh? You’ve already built the runway?”

On the way, a long and wide runway that seemed to be about 1km long was visible.

“Yes! I made it because you said you might need it before.”

“Haha! Good job.”

The dwarves also had a great drive for work.

They completely pushed aside a small mountain and created a large, long runway that can be used immediately.

Now that we have built an airfield in Hebrok Territory, we can transport supplies directly by transport plane.

I’ll have to talk to Hela Wake and have her build me a few large airships.

Things were going well here even without me.

[Orbital Gigant Training Ground]

Drrrrrr! Boom! Boom!

A hundred or so dwarves watched the orbital giant firing its cannons.

How can you shoot while moving and still be that accurate?

It was truly something that could be put into practice right away.

To the side of the training grounds, cabins made to look exactly like the inside of an orbital giant cockpit could be seen.

Ah! I guess we’re training virtually here.

I felt a little sorry that so many dwarves were training just for one orbital gigant.

There was no choice because we didn’t have enough dimensional cores back then.

There are a lot now.

As we approached, the dwarves in training bowed their heads to King Armin.

And then came the chief elder Tar Urad.

“Welcome, Sir Alain Bombard.”

“How have you been, Elder Tar?”

Elder Tar, who always looked dashing with his beard, was King Armin’s uncle.

At first, he was such a charismatic man that people thought Tar Urad was the dwarven king.

“Good news. I’ve managed to get the small dimensional cores. Now we can operate all 11.”

“Oh oh!”

The dwarves were in an uproar.

“Then we can train properly now.”

“We’ve also brought plenty of shells. So you can train as if you were in a real battle. And soon, the day will come when the Orbital Giant Unit will be deployed.”

Elder Tar Urad nodded confidently.

“Understood. Then we will show you the skills of our dwarves.”

“Then let’s go to where the orbital giant is.”

***

A huge cave near the training grounds.

This is a place that was created by carving out an existing rock cave. When we came here before, we moved the orbital gigant here.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As we entered, the sound of hammering struck our ears.

“Where did this come from? Armin.”

“We built a new blacksmith shop right next door.”

“Ah! It’s a blacksmith shop.”

“Even so, the Germanic Blacksmith Elder wanted to see Sir Alain a lot.”

“Really? Then let’s go first.”

Boom! Boom!

Bang! Bang!

There were about a dozen furnaces inside the cave.

And dozens of dwarves were hammering and melting iron.

“Sir Alain! Welcome!”

Elder German, the dwarf blacksmith, came running.

“What kind of place is this? It doesn’t look like they make weapons or tools.”

“Haha! Here, we are making parts for the orbital giant.”

“Huh? It’s a gigantic part?”

The answer came from Elder Tar Urad.

“As I continued to train in the mountains, the caterpillar tracks would sometimes break or one side would wear out and need to be replaced. So I asked Elder German to make me a spare caterpillar track.”

This time it was German who spoke.

“After making one or two caterpillar tracks, I thought it would be better to make all the parts. After all, you never know when something might break down on the battlefield.”

That’s true, but······.

Is it possible to make all the parts by hand?

I looked at the parts that had already been made.

“But how did you make the parts inside?”

“I took that apart piece by piece.”

“You dismantled the orbital gigant?”

“Yes. It was a bit difficult to make the disassembly tool, but I made everything identical except for the parts with the strange pictures.”

The strange picture might be an external filament.

Because that’s not something you can draw.

Then, if I just print out the parts with the Yeonseongjin in my alchemist’s workshop, I can make an orbital gigant, right?

Ah! I need to make a dimensional cannon too.

It wasn’t an easy task right now.

The Dimensional Cannon requires Dragon Bone, and carving an external sect would be difficult with my current skill level.

But later on, it was definitely possible.

“But where did this iron come from?”

The parts were all made of steel, and I asked because our territory had never provided any.

King Armin answered.

“Fortunately, we have discovered iron ore and coal mines here. Our dwarves have a great sense of smell for ore.”

“Can you smell it?”

“That’s what I mean.”

“How much iron ore reserves are there?”

“We haven’t found much yet, but judging by the shape of the mountain range, we should be able to continue finding more.”

I looked at Major Phelps.

“Take the orbital tank out of your subspace storage.”

“yes!”

Drrrrr!

Phelps drove the tram out.

“Can you replicate this here?”

The Germanic blacksmith took out a small hammer and began to strike the tram here and there.

Do you know that?

“It’s possible. It’s simpler than an orbital gigant.”

“Then, can you produce as much as possible? I will make the parts with the pictures, and I will also provide the necessary materials and tools.”

“It is possible, but we need to increase the number of blacksmiths and furnaces.”

German looked at King Armin.

It was a request for permission.

Armin smiled.

“You are working hard for us, so of course we will cooperate.”

“Thank you, Armin.”

If the Dwarves were to produce orbital tanks, they could turn the Havelock or Territory artillery currently fighting at the large dimensional gates into tank crews.

Then, by joining forces with the orcs, we could hunt monsters more effectively.

And later, when the production of chariots increases, they can be sold to the Atlan Kingdom.

Moreover, since the dwarven blacksmiths who make the parts can also do maintenance and assembly, the maintenance and upkeep issues are solved at once.

The dwarves really were dwarves!

Up until now, the dwarves had been of no help at all, but from now on, they would become the greatest contributors to the territory.

“Then please take care of it.”

“A challenge is always fun. Leave it to me.”

The tram was handed over to German.

So the name is Germanic Chariot?

And we moved to where the orbital gigant was.

Drrrrr! Drrrrr!

Eleven orbital giants equipped with small dimensional cores marched majestically into the training grounds.

Squeak! Squeak!

The gun barrel is turning.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

My excellent fuselage vision confirmed that 22 shells had hit the small hill.

“All hits!”

“Wow!”

The dwarves cheered.

It felt like a different feeling to train with 11 units all together after training one at a time.

Elder Tar’s shoulders were also tense.

“How is it? The skills of our dwarf giant soldiers?”

“great.”

Honestly, it exceeded my expectations.

“I guess I can get into combat right away.”

“Of course.”

“Then we should immediately deploy the 6th generation into battle.”

“On the battlefield?”

Good things should be used immediately.

***

Today, too, the inside of the large, bloody gate is still there.

Drrrrr! Drrrrr!

We moved to the Orc forward base.

“Kook? Orc liberator! Come quickly!”

We were greeted by the still-strong-looking Great Warrior Okalyn.

“Huh? This orc looks a little different?”

Iris looked at Okarlin and made a curious expression.

She said it was her first time seeing an orc.

“What is this elf?”

“Hello. My name is Iris, I am a high elf.”

“What? A high elf?”

Okarlin’s eyes grew twice as big.

She is a half-orc.

Half of them had high elf blood and half had orc blood, so the high elves in front of them were half of the same race.

At that moment, Ork Chieftain Orksha came out of the tent.

Orksha also looked surprised when he saw Iris.

“Huh? This guy has inherited the blood of a high elf.”

Iris recognized Orksha at a glance.

Okalyn resembles an orc a lot, but Orksha resembles a high elf more.

Orksha suddenly turned around and ran to his tent.

And he came out with a book.

What are you doing?

“Again, the same thing!”

Orksha opened the book and shivered.

I also took a quick look at his book.

There was a picture of Iris, another high elf, and a young elf.

“Huh? What happened?”

“I heard that this high elf here is my great-grandmother, and this one is her younger sister. Iris Rekeyan is said to be the strongest of the high elves. And this little high elf here is my grandmother.”

I showed the picture to Iris.

“Huh? My sister and I? Tanya is here too.”

They say some relationships have no end.

Tanya, the daughter of Iris’ older sister, Itiel Rekeyan, was the grandmother of Orksha and Okalyn.

When the elven world was destroyed and everyone was scattered, Orksha’s grandmother went to the spirit world gate and gave birth to a child there.

And the two of them said that they used the dimensional gate generator to go to the Orc dimension.

Iris went into the tent to talk with Orksha, and I introduced Okalyn to Tar Urad, the dwarven elder.

And we looked at the map and talked about the current state of things here.

“Kook! There’s a big river to the north of here. If we can just push the dimensional monsters back to this river, we’ll have some free time.”

It was said that a large river, 1km wide, flows from the north of the gate to the west.

According to Okarlin, a dimensional fish monster lives in that river.

They are small, only about 1 meter in size, but they are very ferocious and are said to come in groups and eat monsters larger than themselves.

So if we can just drive out the dimensional monsters there, the threat from dimensional monsters in the northern and western regions will be significantly reduced.

“Kook! But this is where the largest group of dimensional monsters live. Tens of thousands of them.”

“So if we just deal with this group, the north and west will be free.”

“Yes!”

“Then I guess I can just push it away with the dwarf.”

“Okalin! Trust our Dwarf Gigant Soldiers! We will destroy the dimensional monsters!”

Okarlin smiled as he looked at the dwarf and the orbital gigant.

Okalin was an orc who could laugh too.

“Before there was only one, now there are six. It’s reassuring.”

Okarlin saw the power of this orbital giant firsthand.

Because you defeated an S-class monster with me.

But since I brought 6 of them, the expressions can’t help but be good.

“And since they can fire while moving, they’ll be much better coordinated than human artillery. And leave the big monsters to the orbital giants.”

“I understand! You are the true orc liberator!”

I gave two dimensional translators to Okarlin.

“You can talk to the dwarves through this interpreter, and if we fight together, we can take control of this area much faster.”

“Ooooh! Thank you!”

Okarlin nodded his head and thanked me.

Then Iris and Chieftain Orksha came out of the tent.

“Alain, I’ll be here for the time being.”

“huh?”

“I’ll help the orcs here and then go when the elves arrive.”

“Ah! That would be great. The orcs would be a great help too.”

If we can help the Orcs all the way to Iris, it will be a huge help in their takeover of this area.

If Iris attacked from the sky, and the orbital gigants and orcs rushed to the ground, it seemed like no dimensional monster would be able to stop them.

‘This place will be cleaned up soon.’

[Capital Rondos]

The day has come to go to the empire.

Phelps and I hurried back to Rondos.

And joined the unit members.

There was nothing grandiose about the delegation.

It was just our team members and a few people from the delegation.

We waited for the delegation at the airport.

“It’s been a while, Captain Alain.”

“Paolo, what are you doing here?”

“This time, I will be going with the delegation.”

“You?”

“I entered the Privy Council a year ago.”

“Ah! I see. I thought someone as talented as you would join the military. What a shame.”

The second trainee was Baron Paolo Jorge.

He was the third son of the Enple estate, and I remember that during the expedition, he had been good at pacifying the children of the nobles and making them listen to me.

He was quick-witted and his way of thinking was similar to mine, so I wanted to hire him as my staff member.

I heard that he later awakened his flying skills, but he didn’t join the special forces.

‘I was a little expecting it······.’

But he entered the Privy Council!

It feels like I’ve cooked some porridge and given it to a dog.

“Wouldn’t the Privy Council be helpful in keeping tabs on the Atlan Kingdom and the continent’s situation? There’s also the National Intelligence Service.”

“That may be true. So you’re interested in politics.”

“Wouldn’t it be helpful to General Alain later if I learn and know a lot of different things?”

“Will it help me?”
