Chapter 35: Testing out the firing program.

As I finished up the Hunter-Killer Drone, I moved on to the .50-cal version and uploaded the program while sitting in the chair, looking at the screen and smiling at my mana pool size.

I started making 1,000 rounds of .50 cal normal, then I made 1,000 rounds of Lightning, Fire, and Wind each. After the first and second magic rounds, my Magic Weapons smith leveled up twice. Giving me a massive discount, as it was sitting at 25% off on making the magic rounds, along with my Creation Magic, I was sitting at a total of 40% off those rounds.

Coming to the Capitol was worth it; now I was sure that my firepower would be more than enough to handle the Land of the Dead. As I was reading, I learned that the undead have three weaknesses. Fire, Lightning, and Holy magic, I am only missing one of the three elements. Holy Magic had the most damaging effect; the other two had different kinds of damage.

Fire had better damage over time to undead, while Lightning had a good amount of single-hit damage. Do I need to kill a holy monster to get that kind of round? They are seen as good monsters as they tend to keep to themselves and even help people if they come across one in need. I don't feel like killing one unless I have to.

I sighed, deep in thought, when the Library door opened. A gasp escaped me, and I looked back to see the five maids holding their bags, staring at the larger Hunter-Killer Drone in shock, which made me chuckle. "It's a different model, ladies, it didn't grow," I said, standing up as the Drone beeped, signaling that the update was done.

Unhooking the computer from the Drone and storing both the laptop and the Drone as I turned to the ladies. "Shall we go to your new home? I plan to test them, so you ladies will get to witness a new frightful power." I said with a smirk as they nodded.

Walking over to them and storing the maid's bags as I smiled. "It would be better if you didn't have to carry the bags," I said, making them smile and nod as we left the Library, making our way to the front of the palace. As we exited the front door, the Princesses were standing there as Luthien spoke.

"I think we should introduce ourselves to you women, that way we can have a better understanding of you, Colt." She said with a smile, making me nod as we mounted the carriages they had prepared for us. It didn't take us long to return to the mansion, as we dismounted and I walked inside.

"You left me hanging, Colt. You are going to make up for that tonight." A voice said, making me turn my head to see Daiane leaning up against the wall, making me sigh. "Sorry, the Empress wanted me to have dinner at the palace and become closer to the royal family. But don't worry tonight, you will have me all to yourself." I said while walking over to her and lifting her chin as I kissed her.

She returned the kiss and pulled away after a moment with a smile as she spoke. "I will hold you to those words. Who are they?" Dainae said.

"They are the Princesses and my personal maids. The Princesses wish to meet Liliana, and you ladies, can you please guide them to the group?" I asked, making her nod as she walked over to the Princesses and introduced herself as I turned to the maids and let out the bags.

"Please, make yourself at home in the servants' quarters until I get a map of the mansion and change up the rooms," I said as they smiled and bowed, picking up their bags as I made my way to the back.

The ladies should deal with the harem issues, as I walked out into the massive backyard, summoning the Drones as I let the .50 cal Drone load. "I think I need a new name for the models. Or it will be hard to give orders." I said to myself as I thought for a moment and made up my mind.

"The smaller version will be called the Artorias model, and the .50 cal version will be the Alexander model. This will make it easier for me to keep track of how many I have." I said, while I was in thought, the screen chimed as I noticed the drones' names changing to Artorias and Alexander types.

Walking out to 150 meters, I pulled up my Creation Magic and made a poster target of several monsters and demons as I stacked them into the ground from 150 meters to 300 meters before walking back. The monsters ranged from threat to extreme threat. As I worked on the setup, the Princesses and my girls walked out onto the backyard balcony, watching me.

"So what was Colt like in his world?" Luthien asked Liliana. Making Liliana shrug as she spoke to the Princess.

"I wouldn't know, I had met him for the first time the day we came to this world. You would need to ask Samantha for that, but she isn't here right now." Liliana said, looking at my work as Luthien spoke.

"The one kidnapped by the Demon Lord Azel?" She had asked, making Liliana nod. "He holds her in higher regard than anyone. She has the most history with him, and I can tell he holds her in a place in his heart that even we aren't at yet." Liliana said, with a somewhat sad face, and the other women nodded.

I had finished putting the targets up, and the Alexander type had finished loading the standard .50-cal rounds as I spoke. "Target standard normal, begin engagement," I said as both of the Drones quickly aimed, firing at a target that looked like Azel before working their way through the fifty targets.

"Again!" I yelled as I fixed the timing.

The sound of 5.56 and .50 caliber rounds being fired brought everyone's attention as they ripped through the targets with haste. The Princesses were shocked at the rapid attacks; archers and mages couldn't fire off attacks that fast.

As the test went on, the drones ran out of rounds, and I told the Artorias type to stand down. I then pulled out the Lightning rounds for the Alexander type. I hadn't tested magic rounds inside the drones before, so I wanted to see how powerful the .50 Caliber Lightning rounds are.

The targets were still standing, but they weren't in the best shape. So I knew I would need to replace them after this test, as the Alexander type finished reloading. "Normal targeting, begin test fire," I said as the Alexander type started to fire off at the Azel target quickly, but what shocked me was the moment the round left the three-barreled Gatling gun.

It was like a fist of Lightning flew towards the target, blowing through it and slamming into the wall, sending cracks through the massive wall as another round hit it, bringing it down. "STOP, FIRING!" I commanded it.

"Stand by," I commanded as I walked towards the wall. I was shocked by the round's power; the wall was three feet thick and stood about 50 meters tall. It took two rounds to bring this part down; that was unreal. It may have been stone, but it sent cracks through a solid three-foot stone block. A standard .50 caliber wouldn't have been able to do that.

The power of this round was incredible. I wonder if it can get stronger. I should read to see if I can combine the magic elements by adding wind on top of the Lightning. I feel like one round would be enough to bring a wall like this down without a problem.

I don't think I will be able to practice the magical rounds here without destroying the rest of the wall, but I have tested the firing system, and it works perfectly for now. The next part will have to be field testing, but I can do that while traveling towards the Nya Queendom. I think it's about time I talk with them.

I broke the targets down, getting mana in return as I walked back to the Drones and stored them after breaking down the used rounds and links. Later, I will resupply what I used. As I walked towards the mansion, I noticed the group of Princesses looking shocked.

Looks like they will be asking me questions later.
