I'm the King Of Technology

"My lady, forgive me, but I do not think this Baymard is as magical as I've heard. We must not forget that stories and tales told by the merchants are often exaggerated beyond their truth." 

"Indeed, they are Cramous," Camilla replied. "Indeed, they are. However, I have seen a little bit of their so-called magic, and it is quite the powerful type." 

Camilla's mind flashed back to that fateful coronation day when Gregory was about to ascend the throne. 

She and several others had planned to put him down once and for all, only to be mercilessly beaten by Gregory who invited his little friends from Baymard to help. 

If Gregory was here, he would shake his head in refusal, saying that before that day, he never knew there was a place called Baymard. 

She and he were made aware of Baymard's power at the same time, okay?

"That day was the most humiliating day of my life." 

Camilla clenched her fists hard, allowing her nails to dig into her flesh. 

"They were indeed powerful, having sorcerers who could make lightning strike and destroy the grounds below." 

Camilla was talking about the many explosives that were dropped from the hot air balloons. 

Till now. She and many others still believed it was sorcery. 

The explosions were so loud they sounded like thunderous roars. 

She remembered her ears growing deaf at some point and also recalled the powerful flashing lights they conjured (stunt grenades), that destabilized her and made her blind for a while. 

Yes. 

It was the most terrifying moment of her life, with her fearing she might never see again or even hear again. 

Everything that happened was like a dream. 

In all her life, she never believed there would be powerful sorcerers that could make her so out of tune with her own body. 

She wrote a detailed report to her higher-ups on Morgany, hoping they truly understand the cruelty and strength of those powerful Baymardian sorcerers. 

Cramous opened and closed his mouth in shock, finding his lady's narration too frightening and unbelievable. 

His face was now stretched in true worry and concern for her well-being.

"But my lady, with Baymard and Gregory sharing the same pants, you should not be going to Titarian anytime soon." 

"Yes," Camilla nodded expressionlessly. "I will not be going to Titarian… But, there's something you need to know about this new mission given to me." 

What's the matter? Cramous's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad feeling about this. 

"My lady, what is it?"

"Cramous, I've left the pan and jumped into the fire…"

"In other words, your mission is in Baymard?"

"Yes," Camilla stated. "I am to head to Baymard and stay low there, observing and gathering information right under their noses." 

Cramous's pupils dilated at an alarming rate. 

Too dangerous! 

What will happen to his lady if she is spotted and captured? 

Although his lady was strong, if these Baymardians were as strong as she said they were, then Intel gathering would be a lot more difficult than anticipated. 

"My lady and you'll be going alone?"

"I will. That's why I needed the special items on the shipments to concoct a few things of my own… for defense, of course."

She heard the Baymardians check their ports, ensuring no weapons and poisons got into the territory. 

What's more, you can't also ship the raw materials for poison conviction. 

It seemed they banned visitors from bringing in batches of these poisonous raw materials. 

 Any herbs and items in the large bulk of that sort can only be imported into the empire by the Baymardian government themselves.

What's more, they also guarded these items like hawks once they entered Baymard. 

It's said everything is stored in a place they call the Lower Region. 

Many mercenary killers had sworn that only the Gods themselves could ever break into that place. 

Word around the street is that all Pyno forces joined hands in sending people over there to watch the place day and night. 

They say even within the forest zones departing the lower region from the rest of the zones, you will find no less than 50,000 men and women patrolling that single forest area alone.

It must be true, or else how come all spies are always caught so easily? 

Camilla didn't know that thanks to heat and night vision goggles, even if intruders hide carefully, they will always be caught. 

Don't forget that there are now heat vision drones that look like birds, flying above the place. 

Some are also placed on trees and other inconspicuous places around Baymard. 

At the end of the day. What can they say? 

There are many tales of 50,000 guards stationed around the place. Some say there are even 150,000 of them.

Camilla couldn't help thinking when thinking of how bizarre the many tales of Baymard were. 

That being said, although Baymard had its few tricks, she didn't believe they could still detect her famous water poison she was proud of. 

This was a poison she made all on her own in her younger days when she was first introduced into the organization and taken to Morgany for training. 

She developed the poison Morgany now called Water Poison. It was traceless, undetectable and very hard to spot. 

They said it was the 77th most deadly poison in their books. 

Understand that Morgany has a Poison book list of 13,890 known poisons developed exclusively by the TOEP over the years. 

And she, a woman, created one ranked 77th. Doesn't that just blow your mind? 

For women, they don't emphasize for them to learn how to fight, lest they get bulky and manly. 

No… it's best to learn things like poison making. 

Although Camilla knew how to fight, she wasn't so great at it either. 

What saved her most of the time was her putting poison on her weapons or somehow weakening her opponent in ways they never expected.

Don't get her wrong, she found that she could easily fight against those not trained in Morgany. 

But if you told her to fight those who truly trained in Morgany, she would lose very fast.

That was what she surmised in her younger days and chose to choose the route of poison master. 

It was perfect. 

And when she returned from training, she made her mark in Titarian, making a name for herself as the Untouchable Lady. 

Of course, she also used her natural beauty to her advantage, making many hypnotized by her every move. 

Take a look at Cramous. 

He is no doubt stronger than her and could easily kill her off with not much effort. But, she now had him under her spell. 

He wouldn't dare lift a finger to hurt her, even if she dug her hands into his chest and ripped out his heart. 

Awww~

How cute. It was cute that he cared for her, despite knowing she didn't care for him one bit. 

He could bring in a kernel, and she still wouldn't give an F. 

He and several of her loyal subordinates were brainwashed by her in her younger days when she started looking for subordinates to call hers. 

Camilla's eyes narrowed when thinking of Baymard, "I don't believe it." 

"I don't believe they have any way of detecting my Water Poison. Even the Greatest Prison Master in Morgany, Master Tomashi, cannot detect it." 

Camilla paused with a hint of pride in her expression. "In his words, my Prison is extraordinarily in its own right exactly because it is undetectable."

With other poisons, if you drop certain items or even plants in them, the poison will turn another color or nullify. 

But hers didn't have any reactions when they tried to see what could help in revealing the poison to the person the poison was targeting. 

That's why it was called the Water Poison. 

It looked like stream water and tasted like it too. Wasn't all that amazing?

Camilla didn't believe Baymard would ever be able to identify or even sense her poison when Morgany could not. 

.

"Cramous, I don't know how you do it. But find those ingredients for me… you know the ones!" 

She, Camilla, will make several batches of Water Poison to take to Baymard. 

How will they know when no method of detection has been developed yet? 

Cramous nodded, swearing to do his best to find them as fast as he could. 

The lady has at most, a week and 2 days to stay here before leaving. 

They were already in coastal territory, so she could sail off anytime she was ready.

Cramous had already decided that no matter what the lady said, he would be coming with her. 

Luckily, he had already completed all the assignments she gave to him. 

Understand that she was his boss. 

The TOEP gives assignments to the Bosses, who then distribute these assignments to their many team leaders.

The boss had 31 team leaders working under her. 

He, for one, oversaw 4800 men. 

Some looked after 2000 men, others looked after 8,000 men. And she, the boss, was the one to keep them all in line. 

"My lady, I will take my leave now." 

"Go," Camilla replied, watching his leaving silhouette with a sly smile on her lips. 

Sure enough, her little puppy was bound to come with her alongside a few of his men. 

Next stop, Baymard!

(^_^)

...

While Camilla made her mission plans, back in Pyno, another peculiar guest was also making his way there.

His devilishly handsome face stared out his window, with a slight smile on his lips. 

''Lucy... I will be seeing you soon, my future wife.'
